In a dark, gloomy, humid and invisible scene, it could be a ruins, an underground cave, a mountain road or a dense forest. In short, the terrain here must be quite complicated. If you don't pay attention and get lost, you can die.
At the end of a remote dead end. There must be mechanisms and enemies ambushing here, which can always swallow up multiple passers-by.
The villain boss is planning a disaster-level conspiracy at the end of this "maze"-like scene.
This time, of course, is no exception.
In a large and inconspicuous mechanical room located in the underground sewers of Big Apple City, a tall and thin old man in well-dressed clothes poured silver obsidian ground into fine sand into a bucket next to it. The liquid in the bucket
It was originally a lot of unknown substance like mud, but after being poured into the fine sand of silver obsidian, it began to glow with a little halo, and suddenly it changed from ordinary black gray to a fancy black gray.
The old man's face showed joy, he pondered for a moment, picked up a pen and dipped a little liquid from the bucket, then carefully drew a mysterious circle on the ground, and added a few patterns in the middle.
He sighed, as if he had seen a great work of art that was about to be completed, showing a sigh of satisfaction.
This old man is Constance, the newly appointed Bishop of the Earth District of the All Souls Unity Church. He looks like a kind, kind and personable old gentleman, like someone who is well-read in poetry and has no airs in the university.
Old scholar.
It’s hard to imagine that this person would be an important high-level member of a cult, but it’s understandable if you think about it carefully. It’s not easy to develop the market these days. Whether it’s a cult or a pyramid scheme, first of all, the first impression on people shouldn’t be too overwhelming.
If nothing else, Mr. Contense's appearance alone makes him worthy of being called an idol for middle-aged and elderly women.
Mr. Contants, who was like a great scholar, smiled at the people around him and said: "Sure enough, only the gray oil from the planet Rumote can produce such a good effect with silver obsidian. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Suna!"
Mr. Constance himself is a tall and lanky man, but the "Mr. Suner" he refers to is nearly half taller than him, and more slender than him.
This is also a humanoid creature that walks upright. It has yellow-brown skin all over its body. The epidermis is rough and hard, as if the rocks have been dried by the wind in the desert. In addition to the legs used for walking upright, it also has four arms.
With its triangular head and overly slender body, it is easy to think of the feeling of a mantis becoming a spirit.
This is a Rumina, one of the ethnic minorities belonging to the Blue Star Community, and also the most unruly and disrespectful ethnic minority in the community.
"I am not working hard. If the community government and the military who oppressed our people can get their due retribution! No matter what it is, I am willing to do it!" Suna said in a solemn tone.
Contants nodded: "Although I am from Earth, I am very sympathetic to your situation! Don't worry, in the face of justice, there is no race or country. The spirit of the universe is on the side of justice, please firmly believe in this!"
Suna, the Lumina man, nodded with an expression that was close to numbness and took a step back slightly.
"Then, I'm going to activate the magic circle now! You'd better put on your headphones first to avoid being affected," Kantance said again.
"Such a magic circle cannot affect a true Rumina warrior." He said coldly, and then took a step back.
But at this moment, there was only a "pop" sound, and a strong alarm sounded from the communicator on one side of the mechanical center.
Contense stopped and looked at the Rumina with a frown, who innocently said: "I didn't do anything!"
The bishop pondered for a moment, and his eyes slowly became serious.
As mentioned before, the place they are in is one of the central mechanical rooms in the underground sewer area of Big Apple City. In this era of "prosperous technology", the city's underground sewers, circuits, communication networks, etc. are all buried in
Underground. Daily maintenance and adjustments are carried out through various automatic nanomachines. The location of the matrix of these nanomachines is the central mechanical room in the underground network.
The reason why this kind of control room similar to a machine workshop is specially created is naturally reserved for human engineers and technical workers. After all, no matter how convenient the machine is, it must rely on humans to complete the last step of the work.
A machine that can completely complete all work through automated cycles cannot exist in this universe. This is an iron rule.
Not only that, even those underground waterways where various pipelines are laid have space reserved for human passage, precisely for this reason.
Of course, this is how the maze-like urban underground network of passages was formed.
In short, since this is a space for people to work, there are naturally communication devices prepared for people.
However, Contants remembered that before coming over, he should have turned off all these devices and blocked all external communications and interference.
The structure of the psychic array requires a person's patience and meticulousness, and he must concentrate on it.
However, he could not continue to concentrate now, and said in a low voice with a gloomy face: "We have guests coming to visit!"
Sunana walked towards the door of the mechanical room with her tall body, her four arms spread out, and each hand pulled out a high-carbon crystal sword as if by magic.
Standing alone in the narrow doorway, he had an aura that was invincible.
However, this brave Lumina man is not a fool. While being careful and vigilant, he said: "There are only two of us here. If an enemy really attacks, I won't be able to hold on for long! Where are your men?"
"..."
"...You didn't block all their communications, did you?"
Contense was silent for a few seconds, and then sneered: "This is all for the smooth execution of the plan! When I am communicating with the noble spirit of the universe, I don't want anyone to disturb me."
He paused and then said: "Of course, you are different from my subordinates. You are a Dharma-protecting warrior recognized by the sacred spirit of the universe and the great leader. You are different from those fools."
Suna was not prepared to be happy at all.
"Don't worry! Even if there is an enemy coming to attack! I'm ready." Contants said as he walked to a chessboard on the console, picked up the black king on it and knocked it gently.
.
"As a 'breeder', I have long prepared the most steadfast guards! Their bodies are the most advanced combat robots in the universe, but their cores are the souls I cultivated! The 32 chess pieces are the 32 most powerful ones.
Fearless warrior! In the complex underground waterway, we can withstand thousands of troops! In addition, if the situation is not right, we can retreat immediately! I have mastered the route here, and we can definitely escape!"
But at this moment, the siren suddenly stopped and turned into an indistinguishable voice: "Oh, Constance! You actually dare to come to Earth!"
Suna placed all four swords in front of him vigilantly, but saw the corner of Connors's mouth trembling next to him, and there was a clear look of nervousness on his face.
"I seem to have warned you and your ancestors a long time ago. You are huddled in a remote star area like rats in the gutter. I am too lazy to come and meet you. But since you have come to Earth, you can only kill them.
.Why don’t you understand such a simple truth?”
Connors shivered even more. Of course he had heard this voice before, and he also knew that this voice that sounded very natural and vivid was actually a falsetto simulated by psychic energy.
However, this does not prevent this voice from becoming a nightmare for the core members of the All Spirits Unity Sect.
"Black, Earl Black Moon... huh, that's a bluff! Our plan has reached this point, and the great cause of the Holy Religion will never waver in the slightest! Stop me if you have the ability!"
Connors roared angrily, and the calm, intellectual, kind and gentle scholar's demeanor suddenly disappeared. Even the Rumina people next to him showed surprise, and then there was a hint of contempt.
Only then did the old bishop realize that he had lost his composure, and quickly took a deep breath to stabilize his mood.
Yes, the place I was in was a central machine room somewhere in the underground waterway. The route was very complicated. Even a municipal maintenance worker who had worked in the Big Apple all his life would still get lost without a map or a robot to guide him.
Moreover, his 32 chess pieces have guarded all the passages! The terrain here is blocked by one man and cannot be opened by ten thousand men! Even Earl Black Moon will definitely not be able to catch up in a short while.
No! It’s not just that he can’t catch up! Now that he knows his existence, and the chess pieces are taking advantage of the terrain to prepare for it, maybe they can actually save the life of the “immortal demon” here.
...This possibility is unlikely, but cults can also have dreams.
Huh! You're so arrogant! If you sneak in secretly, maybe I'll really get into your trap.
Bishop Connors decided to directly physically destroy the alarm and communication devices, and then quickly activate the magic circle. After the magic circle was running smoothly, he would wait until the magic circle was running smoothly before taking action again.
The terrain here is very complicated, and the routes here extend in all directions. Of course, he has already prepared an escape route for himself.
"During this period, you entrusted your subordinates to collect silver obsidian crystals and Atki crystals of considerable quality, and booked the revolving restaurant on the roof of Huitong Century Tower for the last two hours, and also transported a large crystal to it.
Tapir Stone. Obviously, the two hours you booked, that is, from 11 pm to 1 am, are the times when the array is most effective. Then, the field of will you adopt must be the Roka configuration.
Or the Plot configuration?"
The bishop was really confused this time, and the panic of having his cards revealed overwhelmed him like a collapsing mountain.
You must know that these two array configurations are quite rare psychic spell structures, and they will not see the light of day for a long time. The patriarch said to himself that even the masters of the Void Spirit Temple are not interested in this kind of formation.
Not many people are familiar with it.
But why does a mere thief have such knowledge about arrays?
You know, even in the field of psychic energy, there is a difference between theory and practice. Isn’t it the same as being a top engineer who is also proficient in string theory? It’s so illegal!
The voice on the other side paused for a moment and then said: "Then, splice these two array configurations with the map of the underground sewers of Big Apple City. As long as you know where the core of the array is spliced, it will be easy to find your location.
Let me guess, which central room are you in? D9, D14, or D17... It's just these places."
"Boom!" Connors waved his hand and fired a burst of psychic energy, smashing the communicator into pieces. The voice on the other side naturally stopped abruptly. But in the eyes of the Lumina people next to him, this was completely a panic breakthrough.
critical point reaction.
"We have been discovered, do we want to escape?"
To his surprise, Connors calmed down and said in a deep voice: "No, if you really escape, you will be fooled! He, he must be bluffing! Even if he finds us, it will still take time to come over.
!We have to keep planning!”
The Lumina man nodded slightly and retracted his previous disdain. He felt that it made sense for this guy to become the core leader of the All Souls Religion.
Connors closed his eyes, sat in the middle of the outlined array, and began to let his spiritual energy resonate with the array. He now really had an attitude of not caring about anything else, and his whole spirit had already
Completely concentrated in the magic circle in front of him, he felt an inexplicable sense of divine detachment.
It was only then that he really started to look like a senior clergyman.
Probably because Mr. Bishop's solemn and solemn expression at this time was so ceremonial, the Lumina people were actually a little shocked. Until he smelled a little subtle smell, he hesitated whether he should remind the other party.
.
After Su Na hesitated for nearly half a minute, he cautiously stretched out his hand and poked the other person. Then, he saw the other person opened his eyes, which were bloodshot and filled with pain and confusion.
This doesn't seem like a reaction to a spell cast being interrupted.
"Help, help me up, I'm a little dizzy!"
"??"
"These idiots are so insensitive! Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
The Rumina people expressed their innocence. Their racial talent is that they have strong resistance in this area! Of course, their senses in this area are naturally a bit dull.
