Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2420 Wrestling
"It seems that the shadow of the mist did come to the hidden room before." No wonder Angor failed to find the shadow of the mist during the monitoring of the sub-control node.

But how did it get into the hidden room?
Could it be that the semi-empty state can ignore the walls engraved with magic circles?If this is the case, it can actually leave the laboratory at any time, and there is no need to possess Reynolds again.

Unless, its purpose is not to leave, but to do something in the laboratory.

Moreover, this process must be carried out in the material world with the help of the physical body.

What is its purpose?Angel couldn't help thinking that when he first met the Firescale familiar, the other party set fire to it in the corridor. Could it have something to do with its purpose?

"Or, it wants to make trouble? Destroy the laboratory?"

Angel shook his head, really unable to guess the purpose of the misty shadow, so he could only temporarily put it aside.

"Angel, why are you suddenly silent?" At this moment, Nice's voice sounded in the psyche.

Angel: "It's nothing, I just discovered that Reynolds' body seemed to be hidden in the hidden room of No. 01 before."

"The hidden room of No. 01? No. 01 is already the leader of the base, right? Why is he so interested in Reynolds' body?" Niss muttered, "Could it be that he also took a fancy to the luck of the mascot."

Reminiscent of No. 01's current situation, Angel felt that Nice's guess might be true.

Don't look at the crazy behavior of No. 01 now, but it doesn't mean that he is really crazy, it's just because he can't see hope, he can only go crazy in the end.But if there is really a little hope, he will never let go.

Maybe in the eyes of No. 01, Reynolds, who has a halo of luck, is just a little hope.

Even if this kind of luck may be insignificant, No. 01 is willing to try it, so Reynolds' body is well preserved in the most secret place in the entire laboratory.

"By the way, what letter did you say you found?" Seeing that Nice had been muttering, Kanter asked.

Angel: "It's letters from No. 01 and Seto Yihui, as well as some void business travel groups. There are probably hundreds of letters."

"The letter? You only found the letter in the hidden room, and nothing else?" Nice didn't immediately ask about the content of the letter, because since Angel mentioned it on his own initiative, he would say it sooner or later.Nis is more interested in the hidden room itself. In his opinion, the only hidden room in the entire laboratory that cannot be explored should have some secrets.

Angel was about to go out, but when he heard what Nice said, he paused again.

He turned his head to look at the narrow room, except for the experimental table, there was nothing in the room.

And on the test bench, there is only the letter.

This is indeed a bit inconsistent with the specifications here. No. 01 created this hidden secret room just to hide these letters?
Angel thought for a while, and came back to the experimental bench. He carefully inspected the standard-looking experimental bench.

There is nothing wrong with the overall appearance, but when Angel tried to penetrate the spiritual power into the test bench, he was blocked by a familiar force.

This is the power of the magic pattern.

Ordinary wizards don't care if they feel that there are magic patterns on the test bench.Because the standard test bench will have constant temperature and clean magic patterns, and according to the needs of different wizards, other force field magic patterns will be added.

But Angor is different from others. He has a good understanding of the magic pattern. He did feel the "temperature control" and "clean" magic pattern on the test bench, but he also discovered other magic pattern angles:
"Concealment, energy blocking, and camouflage."

Conceal the secret, then block the detection of spiritual power, and then use the disguised magic pattern as energy feedback.

In this way, the explorer can subconsciously ignore the secrets inside.

This can also be regarded as a magic pattern routine.

"I was almost tricked into it." Angel muttered to himself, and if it wasn't for Nice's reminder, he probably would have ignored it.

Still suffer from less experience.

I think this test bench belongs to the "standard model", which represents a classic and is difficult to modify.Who knows, No. 01 really changed it.

Once you've identified the problem, it's easy to fix it.

The magic array on the test bench is not connected to the laboratory, it is independent in nature, and it is not difficult to crack it.

However, Angel was not going to crack the magic circle, but opened it directly.

This magic array belongs to breath encryption, and only the breath of No. 01 is recognized.It's not difficult to get the aura of No. 01. The training field outside is full of violent blood.

Collect some by special means, and the magic energy array can be opened normally.

From this detail, it can be seen that the transformation of the magic array of this experimental platform must not be done by No. 01. If it was done by No. 01, he would not put the hidden room in the training ground... If someone really broke in , the blood in the training ground is the password of the enemy.

It only took a few seconds for the magic energy circle to start smoothly.

In Angel's naked eyes, the experimental platform was slowly divided into two halves, and a new platform rose in the middle.

In the middle of this new platform, there is a small box that can be lifted with one hand.

"This is the secret hidden in No. 01?" Because the box was not locked, Angel opened the inside of the box out of curiosity.

However, it was empty and empty inside.

The only thing that can be seen is that the inside of the box is divided into two pieces. Judging from the shape of the velvet cloth underneath, it seems that there are two bottle-like things inside.

Angel carefully checked the box and made sure there was nothing missing, so he had to put it back on the platform regretfully.

"How is it? What's in it?" Nice's voice came from the psychic belt.

"There's nothing in the box." When Angel activated the magic circle, he kept reporting the situation here in real time, so Nice also knew the situation here.

Nice said with some disappointment: "Is that so... It seems that No. 01 has been taken away."

Angel also left the hidden room at this time, preparing to return to the first floor along the way.While walking, Angel also roughly explained the contents of the letter.

"...Basic situation, that's it." Angel had already finished explaining the current situation of No. 01 when he came to the external passageway from the fifth floor to the first floor.

After Angel finished speaking, Niss and Kanter on the side of the soul belt did not speak immediately.

This matter is related to a big figure in the source world, and they need to consider the next issue. No. 01 has obviously started hunting, and it may be too late to stop it. If Gruzdaiwald is really angry because of this, they may also be affected if they stay nearby.

While Kanter and the others were thinking about what to do next, Angel walked into the external corridor.

The journey went smoothly, but when Angel climbed the stairs to the first floor, he suddenly saw a series of footprints on the ground.

There is a slight chill near the footprints, and judging from the extent of the imprints, it seems that they appeared not long ago.

There is no doubt that this must be Reynolds, possessed by the shadow of the mist, who came out.

It's just that Angel was a little puzzled. There were no footprints along the way before, so why did they suddenly appear here?

Angel went all the way up, and when he was about to approach the entrance of the first floor, he saw another mark on the ground, but this time it was not a footprint, but a handprint.

Looking at the two handprints, plus a suddenly elongated footprint behind.

Angel could almost imagine the scene at that time: "Reynolds" was walking on the stairs, suddenly his feet slipped, and his body lost control, so he fell violently and fell to the ground.

Although humans with normal hands and feet are not likely to stumble, but the opponent is "Reynolds" possessed by the fog and shadow, maybe it doesn't understand the way humans walk, or Reynolds has been "frozen" for too long and his limbs are stiff Yes, and possibly wrestling.

So seeing the wrestling marks on the ground, Angel didn't think there was any difference, so he glanced over them and walked towards the exit on the first floor.

As soon as he walked out of the exit, Angel felt something was wrong.

Everything that the naked eye could see was normal, but there was a smell of blood in the air.

Angel didn't immediately follow the smell of blood, but turned his gaze to the ground first.The ground is smooth, but in some places, the outlines of footprints can still be vaguely seen, and there is still cold air escaping nearby.

Before, Angor thought about going to the master control node on the first floor to find Reynolds' whereabouts.But now it seems that maybe there is no need to go to the main control node, just follow the footprints, and you should be able to find the target.

After confirming the direction in which the footprints extended, Angel began to smell the source of the bloody smell again.

It was found that the direction of the smell of blood was exactly the direction Reynolds was going.

"Could it be that Reynolds' body is injured?" Angel was a little puzzled, otherwise where would the smell of blood come from?But if it was really hurt, why didn't there be a smell in the attached corridor before.

Soon, Angel came to the place where the smell of blood was.

He looked at the corridor not far away, frowning tightly.

This is a very ordinary-looking corridor, and he walked through it when he went down before.But at this moment, the corridor has become a bit messy, the energy of the raging wind still remains in the air, and blood is sprinkled on the floor.

Angel frowned because he knew what was going on.

The organ in this corridor was activated.

Once activated, this corridor will release a large amount of violent wind energy in a short period of time. These wind energy will either form a wind roll or turn into a wind blade, indiscriminately attacking all creatures in the corridor. attack.

It sounds dangerous, but it's actually not the case. The mechanism in this corridor is triggered. As long as you don't touch the walls on both sides and walk straight through, there will be no problem.

Angel was puzzled precisely because the trigger method was easy to evade.

A normal person would not touch a strange place where he knows there are traps, let alone the other party is still a fog and shadow.

Moreover, Misty Shadow also controlled the Firescale Familiar to run from the first floor to the fifth floor. It hadn't encountered any traps at that time, so why did it encounter it this time?

Angel walked into this corridor with doubts.

As you walk, pay attention to the details around you.His eyes are obviously clearer than usual, which is the effect when the "Eye of True Sight" is turned on.

With the insight of the eye of true sight, Angel quickly discovered the location where the mechanism was triggered.

Then, Angor looked around at the mechanism trigger point for another week, and he saw a familiar trace.

It was a footprint that was elongated in an instant.

This is very similar to the footprints he saw when he fell in the corridor outside. If it was really because of a fall... Angel seems to understand why the mechanism was triggered.

Presumably, the shadow of the mist slipped here, and subconsciously touched the walls on both sides. Then, the mechanism was triggered, the wind blade slashed, and blood bloomed.

Everything seems to be just a coincidence, but Angel always feels a little weird.

Because Reynolds was injured in this windy corridor, it was easier to find the other party's trace.Through the bloodstains and the pheromones escaping in the air, they can be traced.

However, as Angel continued to move forward, his brows became more and more wrinkled.

He was about to reach the tenth corridor. Among the nine corridors ahead, only two had traps, and they were all trigger traps.

However, those two corridors with organs were both triggered.

Moreover, the triggerers all have obvious signs of being recruited.For the time being, I think it's all caused by the "unsteady standing" caused by the wrestling, but that's all, what's going on with this corridor in front of me?

Why was the organ in this corridor also triggered?

There are organs in this corridor, which are also triggered, but its trigger point is a very hidden button.It is generally not triggered by the enemy, but the own side discovers the danger and quietly presses the mechanism of this corridor to eliminate the enemy's danger.

Unless there are outsiders around, if one person wants to trigger this kind of mechanism, it can only be said...you are too cheap.

There is also a hissing "electric field" floating in the air.

Even if this kind of electric field has reached the end, it still has amazing deterrent power. This is the power of this mechanism, and it is also the most powerful among all the mechanisms that have been triggered so far.

When Angel walked into it, his skin could still feel tingling.

It is conceivable that when Reynolds triggered the mechanism before, the damage he encountered would probably be terrible.

Go all the way to the button where the organ is located.

When you see the scorched black mark near the button, the support marks on the nearby pipes, and the remaining scratches on the ground.Angel roughly and mentally made up the scene at that time.

Reynolds staggered around here again, but he didn't fall, but sprained his foot, so he supported the pipe next to him, but he didn't know that there was a hidden mechanism button next to the pipe...

Is this a coincidence again?

If you really look at it according to Angel's mind-filling picture, it does seem like a coincidence that there is no external force interfering.

It's just such a coincidence that I have encountered too many before.

All the coincidences lead to only one ending: the mechanism is triggered and Reynolds is injured.

To sum up, it is bad luck.
