Rebel Demon King

Chapter 1173 The Sphinx of the Winter Palace (4)

The rotating red warning light made Cheng Mo completely wake up from the black dream, not only him, but all the people standing in the petri dish seemed to have no idea what happened, standing on the round base and looking around. Next observe.

Cheng Mo unbuttoned the respirator with ease, took off the helmet, tore off the cables on his body, and jumped off the base with bare feet, the cold and hard discomfort immediately transmitted to his brain.He had no time to tell the difference between reality and illusion, he glanced in the side direction, and found that Yan Funing and Yan Yitong's brothers and sisters were not in the petri dish.

At this moment, Cheng Mo realized that he was being used, but he was not angry at being betrayed.It's just a little surprised that Yan Funing discovered that everything just now was a virtual world faster than him.He stared at the petri dish from which the respirator and a cable had been ripped off, and thought to himself: "Right now is not to find out how Yan Funing escaped from the virtual world, but to figure out what Yan Funing would do."

He used the 'Seven Sins' to instantly cut off the cables of all the monitors, and at the same time jumped off the base and ran towards the alloy door. Li was particularly eye-catching, and many people who woke up looked back at Cheng Mo, with curiosity and doubt in their eyes.

The heavy footsteps seemed to have awakened Amedeo. He opened his eyes suddenly, only to see Cheng Mo's back passing by. He shook his head, as if he wanted to get rid of the burnout of escaping from death, but he still looked Looks weak.

Closing his eyes and resting for a few seconds, he didn't ask until Cheng Mo had run to the corner, "Cheng Mo, what are you doing?"

"Before the guards come, see if you can escape!" Cheng Mo replied without turning his head, and his thoughts turned, "Now is not the time to care about Yan Funing's dishonesty, no matter what Yan Funing wants to do, I have to help He buys time."

At this time, Zero, who was wearing an iron mask, also woke up. He didn't care to remove the cables connected to the electrode suit one by one, and with a wave of his thick big hand, he tore the extremely close-fitting electrode suit to pieces. He followed Cheng Mo and ran to the gate.

"WOW~~~" Amedeo stroked his messy hairstyle, "I'm tired of this endless world!" After speaking, he jumped off the pedestal helplessly, and quickly caught up with Cheng Mo and No. [-] pace of.

The three people ran crazily, causing chaos in the dust-free laboratory where more than 90 people were placed. More people stepped off the base and began to ask each other what was going on.Some people here know that Utopia is a virtual world, and some people still have disbelief on their faces, unable to accept the reality.

When Cheng Mo passed the mechanical arm, he saw broken respirator parts and cable insulation coverings all over the place. He glanced at the location where the toolbox should have been stored, and saw that a lot of tools inside had been taken away, so he stopped for a while. Footsteps turned back and asked, "Number Zero, what did you do in the data center and security center?"

Zero also noticed Cheng Mo's gaze, glanced at the scattered objects on the ground, and said on the ground, "Kill."

"Aside from killing people?" Cheng Mo asked quickly.

Amedeo, who was following up, panted twice and replied: "Yan Funing used the computers in the data center and the security center, and said he wanted to try to see if the data could be protected, so that even if it was damaged, it would not be fatal. Said to see if there is a way to escape the Winter Palace and contact the outside world."

Zero nodded.

Cheng Mo bent down to pick up the remaining things and looked at them, "Then did you see what he found specifically?"

"My computer skills are average," Amedeo said, shaking his head, "I didn't pay much attention."

Zero whispered: "I remember he searched for a long time in the file cabinet of the security center after he saw something on the computer."

"What did you find?" Cheng Mo asked anxiously.

"It seems to be a series of operating manuals, all about the Winter Palace. I remember one about the 'sleeping cabin'." Zero replied.

Cheng Mo remembered what Yan Funing said when they were in the group, and now it seemed that he had been fooled, and he did it on purpose, deliberately handing Yan Yitong over to himself, so that he could grasp all the information through Yan Yitong.

"What's the matter?" Amedeo asked, "Is there something wrong with Yan Funing? It seems that he didn't see him. Could it be that this kid has already escaped?"

"Let's go first. In a few minutes, the guards will come up!" Cheng Mo continued to run towards the gate, and at the same time turned his head and shouted at a short white man, "Collison, it's not good! The Winter Palace is about to sink to the bottom of the sea, run!"

The man looked puzzled, looked around, raised his finger and pointed at himself, as if asking if Cheng Mo was talking to him.Cheng Mo ignored the man's silent inquiry at all, and secretly used the "Seven Sins" to cut off a mechanical arm suspended in the air. The mechanical arm fell from the air with a "bang", hitting several Petri dish.

People started to panic.

"Collison? Create chaos first? Good idea!" Amedeo immediately realized what Cheng Mo wanted to do, and he also turned his head and shouted at the confused residents of "Utopia", "Everyone, don't be in a daze , the 'Hermitage Base' had a major failure, the submarine dock on the fifth floor was flooded and is now sinking."

Someone recognized Amedeo and asked loudly: "Is Amedeo real? Don't talk nonsense."

"Want to see how Utopia might break down and let us all out? Anyway, I told you the situation, so don't regret running late." Amedeo replied.

The crowd became agitated, and some people started to follow Cheng Mo and the others to the door, followed by more people, and everyone ran down the door with safety first in mind.

At this time, many people were already blocking the alloy gate, but they could not open the gate. Some people shouted "bring the forklift over here", and some said to use "mechanical arms".
Cheng Mo stopped outside the crowd, grabbed the arm of Amedeo who was following behind, pulled him to his side, and whispered in his ear: "The password is 789123##, go and open the door, Then find a way to make more things happen.”

Amedeo asked: "What about you? Go find the communication equipment?"

"Difficult..." Cheng Mo shook his head and said, "Now we have to open all the doors of the other sleep cabins."

Amedeo nodded, "How can I find you later?"

"I don't think I can escape. If you can escape, run to the submarine dock on the fifth floor." Cheng Mo grabbed Amedeo's arm and squeezed towards the alloy door, "Prince Amedeo can Open the door, let him open the door, let everyone escape"

Amedeo waved his hand and said loudly: "I can! I can!" Then he turned his head and whispered in Cheng Mo's ear, "The fifth-floor dock? Don't, I never want to be a submarine again in my life .”

"It's just telling you to run in that direction." Cheng Mo said, "I don't think you can run out."

"I just said that the dock on the fifth floor was flooded." Amedeo said in a helpless tone, then turned his head and asked again, "I can't get out, why did you tell me to run there? To create a chance for you to go to the first floor?"

"I have no chance to go to the first floor. No one has this opportunity." Cheng Mo said, "It is to help Yan Funing create opportunities."

"Didn't it mean that no one has a chance to enter the first floor?" Amedeo squeezed to the door of the alloy door under the gaze of the crowd. He began to applaud inexplicably, "Then what opportunities are we creating?"

"Launch a nuclear bomb." Cheng Mo said softly.

-----------------------

More than 90 people wanted to rush into the already narrow passage, which is undoubtedly a disaster. Fortunately, the chosen ones who were locked in the 'Winter Palace' were still talented and intelligent, and they did not have any problems under the command of Amedeo. Use to trigger a stampede.

Cheng Mo lowered his head and hid in the crowded crowd. He looked towards the corner of the elevator from the corridor. Lermontov in a black suit and several KGB soldiers were holding guns to stop Amedeo and the people behind him. A group of people, don't let them continue to move.

Amidst the noisy questioning, Lermontov explained loudly: "There is no danger, and there is no problem with the Winter Palace. It's just that there are some minor malfunctions in the server! It will be resolved immediately!"

Although the "Winter Palace" is a prison and everyone present is a prisoner, they are all prisoners that Lermontov can't afford to offend, and they must be comforted by soft words.

But the biggest problem with smart people is that they never easily believe what other people say, so Lermontov's rhetoric could not convince the "prisoners" at all. Coupled with the malicious incitement of some people, the atmosphere in the corridor became more and more turbulent.

"Even if it's a malfunction, you can't stop us here. You must give us a place to rest, as well as food and drink. In addition, His Majesty Paul XIV must come out and explain to us!" Amedeo said loudly Said, "We still have to organize us to check on the fifth floor to see if there is any danger."

Lermontov stared at Amedeo with a smile, until he realized that his sight was harmless, and then said coldly: "Mr. Amedeo, you know what's going on, so don't deliberately make trouble here, don't think I have nothing to do with you."

Amedeo puffed his chest out, bumped into Lermontov's body, and said loudly without giving in, "What? You're going to kill me, won't you allow me to make a reasonable request?"

The crowd was enraged to hear that Amedeo's normal demands for rest and food had been denied.

"Yes! No matter what, arrange a place for us to rest first, and let Paul XIV explain."

Amidst the din, Cheng Mo turned his head, bowed his body and quietly touched the end of the corridor.The camera here has been destroyed by him. He let Zero block in the middle of the corridor for cover. He squatted down and tried to pull the manhole cover door of the safety staircase, but it didn't close. Looking back, everyone was looking at the elevator. In the direction of the room, no one noticed what he was doing, so he quickly opened the door, seeing that there was no one below, he sneaked down.

Cheng Mo did not waste time, and rushed to the door of the room where the sleeping cabin was placed on the 17th floor, cracked it violently with the "Seven Sins", opened the alloy door of the sleeping cabin, and shouted inside: "Now the Winter Palace There is something wrong, please evacuate to the fifth floor in an orderly manner! Now something is wrong in the Winter Palace, please evacuate to the fifth floor in an orderly manner!"

After saying that, Momo didn't care about the bewildered people inside, and ran towards the sleeping cabin resettlement room on the other side, following the same pattern, and released the people from the other resettlement room.

When he turned back, the corridor was already full of people, all waiting for the elevator in the elevator hall.Cheng Mo shouted again: "There are safety stairs at the four corners of the corridor. It is difficult to wait for the elevator. Everyone can climb down from the safety ladder. There is a place for rest on the fifth floor, as well as food and cigars."

People cheered and walked towards the four corners of the corridor. Cheng Mo was also caught in the crowd, chose one of the corridors with a lot of people, and followed the crowd down to the 16th floor as if nothing had happened.On the 16th floor, Cheng Mo did the same thing again, releasing more people.

Cheng Mo released the imprisoned chosen ones layer by layer. There were more and more guards, but there were also more and more people climbing down the safety ladder. Some people paid attention to what the guards said, and some ignored them at all. Continue to climb down the safety ladder.

Soon Cheng Mo reached the 12th floor, and just as he went down the stairs, he was walking towards the sleeping cabin storage room of 12-B, and suddenly, an unexpected person appeared in front of him.

"Hey! Lin Zhinuo, where are you going? To save your mother-in-law?" Zoro, a dwarf wearing a black top hat, a black cloak, and a mask over his eyes, blocked Cheng Mo with a silver western sword. throat.

Cheng Mo raised his hands and said softly, "So you are really His Majesty Paul XIV."

"I hate this name." The dwarf Paul XIV put away the Western sword and hung it on his waist, "Please call me the Sphinx of the Winter Palace." (In Greek mythology, the Sphinx is A female evil, representing divine punishment.)
Thinking of the nuclear weapons possessed by the "Winter Palace", Cheng Mo sighed and said, "Now I finally understand why you have such a title."

"Do you know what you did? Lin Zhinuo, you give me a headache."

Paul XIV paced back and forth in the corridor with his hands behind his back, and the silver Western sword at his waist slid on the alloy floor, making an unpleasant metal friction sound. His walking posture reminded Cheng Mo of the little girl in "A Song of Ice and Fire". Demon - Tyrion Lannister.

"Sorry, I have to, Your Majesty, I have no choice."

Paul XIV turned around, he stood still and looked at Cheng Mo, "You are very smart, but to be honest, your current situation is very bad."

Cheng Mo shrugged his shoulders and said: "In any case, if my mother-in-law tells the location of "Book of Angels", my situation will be even worse."

Paul XIV said noncommittally: "But you have also been exposed." He paused, and said coldly, "The fact that you can threaten Chloe."

"That's not necessarily true." Cheng Mo pretended to be nonchalant and said with a smile, "Maybe it was just a helpless choice at that time."

"I can see clearly what's going on. If it wasn't for observing you, I wouldn't have made you like this. But it's meaningless for you to do this. Even if you have the artifact 'Seven Sins', you can't do anything. You You can’t escape.” Paul XIV smiled, “Besides, if you escape now, it’s better not to escape.”

Cheng Mo became alert, "What do you mean by that?"

Paul Fourteen said with a "hehe" smile: "Now the exact time is already December [-]st, and the star gate, red lion, iris, black eagle, eagle bannerman, kamikaze, black tiger, and queen's wing have already Secretly formed a joint fleet, ready to encircle and suppress the Black Death, and it is said that Kaji Yoshiya will also participate.”

Cheng Mo was shocked, but said indifferently: "What does this have to do with me?"

"Of course it does. Aren't you the Lord of the Plague who has the right to inherit the second general?"

Cheng Mo was not surprised that his identity was exposed. From the fact that the other party was able to plot against him from the "Seven Sins", one could guess that the other party knew him very well.What surprised Cheng Mo was that the Star Gate was so crazy, it could almost be said that it was entangled in the fact that besides the Tai Chi Dragon and the Sun Flower Banner, the nine strongest organizations in the world, the Chosen Ones, must seize the "Black Death" Well, thinking about it, for Stargate, there is absolutely no room for loss in this battle. If it fails, then Stargate will definitely fall to the altar and lose control of the inner world.

What was even more surprising was that Paul XIV also told him the news.This made Cheng Mo feel that he still had some negotiating chips. He was silent for a while, pretending to be a little disappointed and said: "It seems that it is indeed better to stay in the 'Winter Palace'."

"Do you know?" Paul XIV raised his head and smiled at Cheng Mo, "Assuming the Star Gate controls the Black Death, then the Winter Palace will be your last refuge."

"So." Cheng Mo asked knowingly, "What does Your Majesty think I should do to protect me?"

"The Book of Angels"? No!" Paul XIV shook his head, "Now I'm more interested in the Plague Lord you have. I didn't expect that the Delorme family is loyal to the Plague Lord, not Nicholas. Buchadnezzar" He turned his head and looked at Cheng Mo, "To be honest, the Lord of Plague is by no means a good thing to you now, but a burden. If you give me the Lord of Plague, I can Agree to all your reasonable requests, even if you want me to let you go, it's not impossible. Or how about bringing Athena to the Winter Palace? Isn't it a beautiful thing for your family to be neat and tidy? I can put the ideal The best location in the country is assigned to you, and you can build it as you like! I will satisfy you with everything you want. My reputation has always been reliable."

Cheng Mo sighed inwardly, the mother-in-law's uprightness made him completely lose the room to evade, but there was no way to blame the mother-in-law for this matter.He also shook his head and said, "Can you change one condition?"

Paul XIV put his hands together and begged: "Satisfy me! Lin Zhinuo, I just want to be the master of Chloe Delorme devoutly."

"That's even worse." Cheng Mo said angrily, "You have become the master of my mother-in-law, so I am also your servant?"

Paul XIV was speechless for a while, and he let out a long sigh, "It seems that you don't have the sincerity to talk to me?"

"It's because your requirements are too high." Cheng Mo said.

"Know what it's like to have consciousness imprisoned in a dark space?" Paul XIV asked.

"do not know."

"Trust me, you won't want to try."

"On this point, I agree with your statement."

"If you toast and don't eat fine wine, then I can only let you feel what the deepest loneliness and fear feel like."

"Your Majesty, I thought you were a benevolent monarch." Cheng Mo said, "I think we can sit down and have a good talk."

Paul XIV drew out the western sword again. This time, instead of pointing at Cheng Mo's throat, he stabbed fiercely on Cheng Mo's knee, "Kneel down and speak to your king."

Caught off guard, Cheng Mo couldn't bear the pain, and suddenly knelt down on one knee, sweat dripping from his forehead onto the floor, and the dwarf Paul XIV's dark eyes finally appeared in front of his eyes.

"My kindness is not for a stupid ass like you."
