Gin is doing charity again today [Comprehensive]
Chapter 68 There is no darkness before dawn
Such a temptation is undoubtedly ridiculous and meaningless.
After Qin Jiu and White Horse Tan looked at each other, they trailed him by half a step and climbed the stairs together with him.
The two of them stepped on the transparent steps unhurriedly and walked up the air in a flash of the light. The steps were very steady, and the positions of their feet did not change. They were both stepping in the middle of the steps.
There are no guardrails on both sides of the stairs, and the bottom is the bottomless sea. Every step they take is like walking on a steel wire, but if they step too far, they may fall into the sea.If someone who is timid or afraid of heights comes, it is estimated that they will be frightened halfway, unable to advance or retreat in the air.
I have to say that although the tricks used by this group of aliens are a bit unfashionable, the effect of the test is still very good.
There are one hundred steps from the pier to the entrance of the fortress, each step is half a meter high, and the total height of all steps is only 50 meters.The fortress is almost above the stratosphere, so it is reasonable to say that 50 meters should be far from the entrance. However, after the two walked a hundred steps, they stood half a meter in front of the entrance, and a clean iron gate stood in front of them. Slide away slowly.
The long, straight passage was filled with lights, and at first glance, almost only the cold light could be seen, and everything else was covered up.Wait until the eyes get used to the brightness in the passageway, and then look at it. On the two walls, strange lines with a metallic color gradually emerge. They seem to contain special power. If you look at it a few more times, you will feel dizzy and dizzy. You can’t see it completely Not sure.
Qin Jiu only took a glance, then looked away, and quietly pulled down Bai Matan's sleeve, signaling him not to look around.The two settled down, first exchanged a tacit look, and then walked carefully into the passage.
"Beep beep-"
A clear notification sound accompanied the closing of the iron door. Although it was abrupt, it was very gentle. Even if the two of them did not make any psychological preparations, they were not frightened. They just looked suspiciously at the source of the sound, which is the bottom of the passage. .
"Is this how the master of your land treats guests?" Bai Matan asked with a polite smile, looking straight ahead.
"Our way of hospitality is prepared for worthy guests. Do you two think you can afford the word 'worthy'?" The cold female voice sounded directly in their minds like the voice of a legendary god, extremely Near and far away, obviously without the slightest emotion, but with a strange sense of compassion.
"I don't know if it's worthy or not, but we are the guests recognized by the owner of the noble land, and to insult us is to insult yourself." Baima Tan responded without humility, "I can understand that you look down on the earth's technology, and then look down on the earth's people. However, just because of this point of disdain to implicate myself, isn't it putting the cart before the horse?"
The owner of the female voice was silent for a moment, and asked again: "What conditions do you bring to discuss cooperation with us tonight?"
"The essence of cooperation is that everyone gets what they need. Before asking me for conditions, miss, you might as well ask yourself what conditions you have brought us tonight." Baima Tan smiled, and took the initiative in just a few words Then he came back, "Instead of wasting time here, why don't we go to another place and discuss in detail?"
"Mr. Baima is very smart. He can silence my companion with a few words." The cold female voice was replaced by a lazy male voice. Compared with the former, the latter was much gentler and more watertight. However, I also hope that Mr. Baima understands that if you do not pass our test, you are not qualified to enter our living room."
Detective Baima asked: "Test? Have you seen the holographic image of you experimenting with monsters?"
"No, today, let's change the game... I mean, test." The owner of the male voice laughed, "Mr. The laboratory, the one on the right leads to the herbarium, and the one in the middle...I can’t say, but it is the most dangerous. Please choose one of them, as long as one of them walks to the reception room through the road you choose, it will be counted. Pass the test."
After a pause, he asked provocatively again: "How is it? Are you going to accept the test?"
The laboratory, the herbarium, and the unspeakable mysterious path are chosen from one of the three. Is this intentional to separate them?
Qin Jiu and Baima Tan quickly thought about it, secretly glanced at each other, walked forward quickly without answering.
Thirty meters was only a few dozen steps for them, and they quickly crossed the road and came to the fork in the road mentioned by the two aliens who could only hear and see no one.
The three roads lead straight to three different directions, like branches branching off from a main trunk, except for the direction of extension, the rest are basically the same.
The light in the fork in the road is very dim, and the visibility is only five or six meters. Standing at the intersection and looking in, you can only see bare walls and floors. The dim light and narrow space create a gloomy atmosphere.
The white horse explorer did not hesitate, and decisively chose the road leading to the laboratory.His two seniors walked this road and told him the basic situation. Although it sounds a little scary, as long as he is mentally prepared in advance, he believes that with his own determination, he can still carry it through.
Gin hesitated for a few minutes.The herbarium sounded like it was related to the place he wanted to find, and the mysterious path was full of unknowns, but no matter which path it was, it was a deliberate trap set by the guy hiding behind the scenes and stirring up the wind and rain.
If his thinking is right, he can get where he wants to go no matter which way he goes.That being the case, there is no need to choose the path of writing the answer behind the question in the herbarium, which is boring, and the mysterious path is more challenging.
Thinking of this, Qin Jiu strode into the middle road, and his tall figure was soon swallowed by the dim light.
It was as if he himself had stepped into the mouth of a giant beast.
……
"Ibaraki-sama, this is the place."
In the blue water waves, Pippi Shrimp jumped out of the water with his tail flicking, jumped to Ibaraki's white hair to prop up his body, and his two whiskers floated in a certain direction along the sea wind.
Ibaraki nodded and stepped on the surface of the sea.He looked up at the fortress, gripped the ghost claws fiercely, the sea water under his feet sunken a puddle due to his boiling demon power, and a strange black figure emerged from the bottom of the pit.
"Weak people are not qualified to decide their own life and death, and I don't care if the race of monsters will disappear in the world." He murmured in a low voice, the volume was not loud, but it made the sea that was not calm even more rough, "I do These are just for my best friend, for that powerful and proud ghost king, to be able to return to the world!"
For this, he will stop at nothing.
Before the words fell, Ibaraki, who was not good at water, plunged into the sea, and the loud sound of entering the water covered up his unfinished words.
Strange to say, after he jumped into the sea, the originally turbulent sea calmed down instantly, and every ripple was as smooth and smooth as ironed, brighter than a mirror.
Using demon power to prop up a barrier around him, Ibaraki endured the discomfort of the water rushing over his body, and swam towards the place Pippi Xiajing had detected.As the depth of the dive increases, the surrounding light is getting darker and darker. Even the monster's superior five senses have been weakened to an extremely low level at this time. The scene 20 meters away is basically only an outline in his eyes. up.
"How deep do you have to dive?"
About half an hour later, the light on the barrier around Ibaraki was more than half dimmer than before, and the surrounding visibility also dropped to about ten meters.He frowned in annoyance, feeling extremely uncomfortable being wrapped in a clammy air all over his body.
Pippi Shrimp curled up in his hair, and whispered: "Hurry up, I can clearly sense many chaotic evil spirits gathered together. Although most of those evil spirits have been artificially weakened, but in my body There is the demonic power left by Master Shuten, and Master Jiuten has had contact with the master of the demonic energy, so I can use his demonic power to perceive them."
Speaking of Shuten, Ibaraki's ugly face immediately calmed down a lot, and his impatience was also reduced by seven or eight, silently speeding up.
In the quiet and dark environment, the passage of time became invisible, and after Ibaraki survived the initial discomfort and depression, he gradually adapted to the feeling of being surrounded by sea water, and he was not so tormented.
After diving down for a while, Ibaraki suddenly moved his nose and smelled the evil smell in the sea water around him, accompanied by the bloody smell that he was very familiar with, which instantly brought him back to the defeat in the battle many years ago.
——The battle where Minamoto Raimitsu cut off Shutun's head.
"It's Master Jiutun's blood!" The drowsy Pippi Xiajing also became excited.
"Best friend..." Ibaraki clenched his fists tightly, and his deep pupils suddenly glowed brightly.
He shot a wave of monster power behind him, using it as a driving force to rush forward, and within a few breaths, he rushed to the source of the bloody smell.
On the deep seabed, a transparent building hundreds of meters high was built with hexagonal light bricks.The building was shaped like the Colosseum in Rome, and every brick and tile was glowing with dazzling light. Even if the surrounding light was dim, its own light was enough to reflect every detail of it.
The interior of the building was divided into circular compartments with a diameter of about five meters by lightning beams, and two to three skinny monsters were locked in each compartment.Some of them are in human form, some are prototypes, but they are all so emaciated that they can hardly see their original appearance, and they are dying, and they can tell that there is not much time left to live.
These are the "experiments" that the master of the fortress drove out to let the wind out.From them, we can clearly see the fate of most monsters who have the same fate, and there are even more miserable ones.
But they are not quite the same as other monsters, they all have a bright red blood line drawn on their foreheads, as if they have opened the eyes of the sky.The thin but tenacious power is continuously released from the blood line, isolating the strange energy surging inside the building, preventing them from eroding the bodies of these monsters further.
The blood line was drawn with Jiu Tun's blood.
"Master Jiuten... Did you protect them?" Pippi Shrimp poked her head out of Ibaraki's hair, staring blankly at the monsters in the building, her tone full of disbelief.
"...Yes." Ibaraki's eyes flickered slightly, "I didn't expect that the high-ranking ghost king would care about the lives of the weak. Hundreds of years have been lost between me and him. I don't know if we will meet again. At first..."
Pippi Xiajing looked down at him with complicated eyes, smacked his lips and said, "Master Ibaraki, don't think about this, let's quickly find a way to rescue them."
Ibaraki came back to his senses, with a slightly cold expression: "Understood. By the way, Shuten entrusted his demon power to you for safekeeping. Is there any way for you to temporarily control it?"
"Yes!" Pipi Xiajing jumped out of his hair, shook his head and said, "Master Jiuten left me a spell that allows me to control his demon power for a quarter of an hour."
Ibaraki nodded: "A quarter of an hour...with my ghost hands from hell, it's enough to break this building."
"Then let's start." Pipi Xiajing eagerly said.
……
Ibaraki and Pipi Xiajing were busy outside the fortress, and Gin inside the fortress was not idle either. As soon as he walked into the mysterious path he chose, he walked quickly to the first room and squinted at the door I was fascinated for a moment by the strangely shaped graphic characters on the screen.
He had seen these fonts in the attachments of the "Employee Handbook" issued by Usaki Ki. When he first saw them on the armor on the surface of the fortress, he went back and flipped through the attachments, and wrote down some commonly used characters.
The characters on the door are among the commonly used words he memorized, which should mean something like "dissecting room".
The dissecting room is a place full of stories.
Gin shook his head, and casually pushed open the half-hidden door, a ray of yellow light spilled from the crack of the door, dazzled his eyes.
At the same time, the pungent rancid smell also rushed out.
The door of the room was slightly open, just fixed at a size that could accommodate one person in and out.Qin Jiu raised his eyes, and there was a cruel blood in his eyes. The yellow light should be warm and soft, but against the scarlet red, it actually revealed a bit of sinister coldness, like hell on earth. .
However, he only had time to take a look at it, because the next moment, a sharp long howl suddenly resounded through the passage, echoing a sharp pain on his eardrum.
Qin Jiu raised the short sword he held in his palm at some point in front of his body, accurately pared the black shadow rushing towards him, and made a clear sound.
After Qin Jiu and White Horse Tan looked at each other, they trailed him by half a step and climbed the stairs together with him.
The two of them stepped on the transparent steps unhurriedly and walked up the air in a flash of the light. The steps were very steady, and the positions of their feet did not change. They were both stepping in the middle of the steps.
