Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2427 Scout

boom boom-

The movement in the corridor is getting bigger and bigger, dust and parts are falling everywhere, and there will be a space flip from time to time, and the ceiling can also become a walkway.

At first glance, it looks like the laboratory is about to collapse.

At the beginning, Angel also thought that there was something wrong with the outside of the laboratory. If the vibration continued, the inside of the laboratory would probably collapse within a short time.But soon, he rejected this point of view, because he noticed a detail that he had overlooked before: Although there was a lot of movement inside the laboratory, some energy tubes were broken, but in fact the magic energy array itself was not affected in any way. .

The main part is still working fine.The mechanism corridor did not cause the mechanism to malfunction due to internal vibrations.

Generally speaking, it is impossible for such a big movement not to affect the magic circle at all.But there is no problem with the magic array now, it can only explain one problem, the current movement itself is under the permission of the magic array.

Reminiscent of what the inspector clearly pointed out not long ago, No. 01 is making some attempts outside to kill Schitz hatchlings.Maybe, the current shock is related to what No. 01 did.

But what it is, Angel is temporarily unable to know.Maybe go to the main control node to see where the magic circle will find something, but now is obviously not the time to go to the main control node.

Suppressing the speculation in his heart, Angel continued to run towards the exit.

Calculated from the time, it is estimated that Gomito possessed by the mist and shadow has awakened, but Angor did not find it catching up again, maybe it calmed down a little, or the abnormal movement in the laboratory made it give up chase.In any case, it was a good thing for Angel that it didn't catch up.

On the way to the exit, Angel was also reviewing what happened before.

Although it was a bit of a surprise to meet the inspector, it made sense with Ferro's foreshadowing.It's just that Angel doesn't know what it means for the inspector to appear here?Is the role he plays a pure bystander or will he become a participant?Although it is said that the inspectors cannot intervene in the affairs of the Southern Region, the pursuit of the Phantom City should not be included in the scope of the Southern Region, right?
Not only the doubts about the inspector, but also the shadow of the mist, as a third-class citizen, what role did it play when it came to the laboratory?What's in the bottle, is it the Shiz pup's?And, what happened to Reynolds' fate?

Unfortunately, the communication time with the inspector was still too short, and many doubts in my heart were not asked.

These can only be left to the future to see if the answer can be found.

……

Finally, Angel came to the exit before the corridor overturned for the first time.

Taking a deep breath, he reached out and touched the silver-white metal wall directly in front of him.

The direction of the magic pattern under the palm is still normal, once again corroborating Angel's guess.External shocks are within the control of the magic array.

This is also a good thing for Angor, at least there is no need to worry about the backlash of the magic pattern, causing the exit to move outward.

Taking out the external magic pattern platform again, it easily suppressed the flow of the surrounding magic patterns. After doing all this, Angel directly opened the door of illusion.

The exit opened wide, and what greeted Angel was not a flat land, but a sea of ​​gray clouds.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Angel was stunned. He just stayed in the laboratory for a long time, why did he change his appearance outside?

Just when he was in a daze, the laboratory vibrated again, and even the exit changed from directly in front to directly above.

Angel hesitated for a moment, and flew out from the exit.

As soon as he flew out, Angel saw a huge steel tentacle passing in front of him. With astonishing power, it pierced through the space, set off a cloud of gray mist, and slammed down fiercely.

Angel subconsciously looked in the direction where the steel tentacles were waving, and he was stunned when he saw this.

He used to think that the gray fog and sea of ​​clouds outside were actually a natural phenomenon caused by heavy fog, but only now did he realize that he was wrong, the sea of ​​clouds was a real sea of ​​clouds.

At this time, he was no longer in the open space on the bottom of the sea, but came to an altitude of hundreds of meters.

The base laboratory is no longer buried underground, it... flew into the air!
The previous steel tentacle was an external corridor on the base laboratory.

At this time, the laboratory seemed to have turned into a fortress-like steel giant, constantly waving its tentacles in midair, attacking a monster below.

It was a monster with purple crystals all over its body, and Angel was no stranger to it.

It was the Schitz larva that I had encountered before.

Angel was wondering what happened outside and why there was such a sudden change, when a voice suddenly entered his ears: "Who are you?"

Angor looked up, but saw a towering figure standing on a steel tentacle, looking down at Angor.

Although it was backlighting, Angel still captured the details of the visitor.

It was a man wearing a half-face mask and looked very gentle. His whole demeanor gave the impression of a professor in a seminary, calm, steady, solemn and abstinent.Only his exposed eyes are completely inconsistent with his temperament, forbearance, despair, longing...and, madness.

Because of the existence of a half-face mask, his specific appearance cannot be seen clearly, but the half of his face without the mask has a number "0" engraved on it.

From the "0" number and the man's crazy eyes, Angel had already guessed the man's identity.

There is no doubt that he is No. 01.

No. 01 of the jedi madman who was hunted down by the city of phantoms was inescapable.

Angel didn't expect that he would meet this guy just after he left the laboratory.It seems that the previous guess is correct. The big movement in the laboratory should be caused by No. 01. He seems to want to use the laboratory to kill the Schitz larvae.

Angel was thinking about whether to say something to No. 01, but before he could speak, a shadow suddenly appeared behind him.

It was the Earl fans who emerged from the shadows.

Earl fan manipulated the shadow, turned into a dark shield, and directly blocked an attack that was shining with sharp light.

Angel looked back, only to realize that there was an extra person behind him at some point.

It was a very thin young man with a pale face and bright red lips.

He looks a bit sickly and feminine in appearance.

But the attack without warning just now is enough to show that the opponent's strength is not bad.

From the serial number on his face, Angel got his identity: No. 02.

A shadow wizard sneaked behind him. If Earl fans hadn't discovered it in advance, it is estimated that Angor would have suffered a serious injury.

No. 02 saw that his body was exposed, but he didn't have any fear at all. He licked his tongue and disappeared into the air.

Within a few seconds, a vague shadow appeared beside Angel.

No. 02 raised a sharp knife made by the shadow, and stabbed it at Angel's temple.

Before the sharp knife pierced the skin, Earl fan stood in front of Angor, and with a wave of his hand, No. 02 was thrown into the air.

However, No. 02 directly turned into a shadow in mid-air, and when he gathered again, there was an extra black ball in his hand.

With an evil smile on his face, No. 02 threw the black ball towards Angel.

"Shadow Gap!"

As soon as the black ball was thrown, it turned into a black shadow, and these shadows were still spreading wildly, trying to surround Angel.

The shadow is between reality and illusion. It is a crack in space. Once the shadow expands, Angel will be torn apart by the shadow of space.

No. 02 raised the corners of his lips, as if he had already seen the scene of victory.

However, before the shadow gap completely surrounded Angel, it was surrounded by a deeper and darker figure, as if the shadow was torn into a crack and directly merged into itself.

Still an Earl fan.

No. 02's powerful spell that can tear out the shadows of space has become an entrance snack in front of Earl fans.

Not only resisted No. 02's attack, but also manipulated a surging black shadow to surround No. 02 in the center.

This belongs to the level of restraint.

Earl fans have combat power comparable to real knowledge, and dealing with No. 02 is basically crushing.Moreover, Ermi is a demon who is born to hide in the shadows, and his manipulation of shadows is even better than No. 02.

Therefore, No. 02 has absolutely no resistance against Earl fans.

At this time, No. 02, who was surrounded by shadows, also came back to his senses. He thought it was just an accident that Earl's fans blocked him before, but he didn't expect that Earl's fans were so terrifying.

"This black shadow is very powerful, and I feel like it restrains me a little bit!" While trying to escape from the siege of Earle fans, No. 02 sent a message to No. 01 in the distance.

The way No. 01 looked at Angel also changed suddenly: "Who are you and why are you here? The city lord sent you here?"

No. 02: "He came out of the lab, I saw it just now! No matter who he is, kill him first!"

No. 01 narrowed his eyes and didn't ask any more questions. With endless blood, he slammed directly at Angel.

But the blood hit Angel, but there was no splash.His figure, like broken pieces, disappeared.

"Illusion?" When No. 01 was puzzled, there was a wave of fluctuation around him, and No. 02 appeared beside him.

"Where's that black shadow?" No. 01 refers to Earl's fan.

"Suddenly disappeared." No. 02 also looked puzzled. When he was trapped by Earl's fan, he couldn't move at all. He thought that he might have to explain it here this time, but he didn't expect Earl's fan to disappear without warning.

No. 01 didn't understand why Earle fans gave up attacking No. 02, so they could only say cautiously:
"The other party is proficient in illusion and may be hiding by the side. Let's be careful."

No. 02 nodded and began to be on guard.He couldn't see Angor's strength, but that black shadow was quite powerful, and he had only felt the oppressive feeling of being helpless on No. 01.

Facing such a strong man, No. 02 had to pull himself together.

However, half a minute passed.

They were on guard for a long time, but they did not encounter any attacks. No. 02 hesitated for a moment, and released a few shadows around, and the shadows returned after a while.

No. 02: "He has left, and the shadow ripples reflect the shadows when they left."

No. 01 frowned, what kind of operation is this to leave suddenly?The strength of the opponent should not be weak, and with that black shadow around, he didn't even fight, and just left with illusion?
"Are you going to chase?"

No. 01 was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "Forget it, the next goal is more important. If he leaves, just ignore him."

No. 02 frowned: "But, I saw him leave the laboratory with my own eyes, could he be an intruder?"

No. 01 couldn't answer this question either, but he had some guesses in his mind. Compared with the intruders, he felt that they were more likely to be scouts sent by the Ghost City.

These scouts are just outposts. Generally, they will not directly participate in the battle, but to scout for information. When the fighters from the rear arrive, the two will work together to resolve the battle more conveniently.

The reason for such speculation is not unfounded. First, Angel did not show his strength, but left directly, which is in line with the characteristics of reconnaissance; second, Earl's fan looks non-human at first glance, and may be a magical creature. It may also come from Phantom City, which belongs to inferior citizens, and scouts are paired with inferior citizens, which is also a common combination.

It's just that although No. 01 roughly guessed the other party's identity, he didn't say it. No. 02 didn't know that he was hunted down by Phantom City. If he told him, maybe he would not even have the chance to play the dirge for the end.

Therefore, facing No. 02's guess, No. 01 just said indifferently: "Whether it is an intruder or not, only No. 03 can tell us at the moment. Unfortunately, No. 03 is gone now."

"Yes, where did No. 03 go?" No. 02 also felt strange.

"In this way, I will continue to complete the final goal here. You go to No. 03 to inquire about the situation, and go back to the laboratory to check the situation from No. 04 to No. 10 to see if there is any intruder. If so, first determine the damage to avoid data leakage. "No. 01 arranges.

No. 02 thought about it and thought it was not bad, so he nodded: "Okay."

No. 01 and No. 02 left silently, until his figure completely disappeared, he sighed softly, with a trace of regret and apology in his sigh.

"The scouts are here, do I still have a chance?" No. 01 murmured silently, he really couldn't find any chance... Reynolds' figure suddenly flashed in his mind, he had thought about borrowing Reynolds's money before Luck, but later found out, it didn't work.It was only rumored that Reynolds was lucky, but after he got Reynolds' body, there was no sign of luck.

If they were lucky, they wouldn't have such difficulty dealing with the Schitz hatchlings today.Even, the item that dissipated the power of the rules has been consumed seven to eighty-eight, and the Xiz larva is still not completely wiped out.

Perhaps, Reynolds' so-called luck was just a rumor.

"There is no chance... It seems that this is the only way to do it." No. 01 slowly regained consciousness from the murmur, and the only hesitation in his eyes slowly dissipated, turning into determination.

……

On the other side, Angel was descending.

He didn't know how Ferro, Nice, and Kanter were doing now, and he was going to go back to the bottom of the sea to have a look.

But before he reached the bottom of the sea, a black raindrop suddenly fell from the hazy sky.

The black raindrops fell near Angel and turned into a crystal as quiet as a night.

Angel felt the familiar fluctuations from this black crystal... This is Lord Ruye's method.

Without hesitation, Angel took the black crystal and squeezed it lightly.

An energy fluctuation erupted instantly inside, and this energy fluctuation turned into an invisible thread invisible to the naked eye, entangled with Angel's spiritual power.

This is, the soul tie.

Angel did not refuse the connection of the soul tie. After the soul tie was successfully established, Angel heard a familiar voice in his heart.

"Angel, how is your situation?"
