midnight ten

In the eyes of every partner, everyone took a deep breath at the same time, and made a final impact on the gate with all their strength.

"Whoa-"

Only Huo Xu's water waves rushed to the door again, and the others remained silent.

Huo Xu looked at the other ten people in astonishment: "What are you doing, you are almost there, attack!"

Sunday, who had changed back to his own appearance, looked even more astonished than Huo Xu: "I can't sense the stationery tree anymore."

"What?" Huo Xu thought he heard it wrong. At this critical moment, the stationery tree fails?

"Me too..." Wuwufen raised his hand in a daze.

It was only then that Huo Xu realized that the heavy firepower from the five-fifth [Arsenal] in the hands of some partners had disappeared.

There are also He Lu, Da Sixi, Yue Pangpang, Zheng Luozhu... Huo Xu looked around, and every partner was the same.He went to look at Fan Peiyang with the last hope, but he only saw the other party's downcast eyes and furrowed brows.

The stationery tree is gone, everyone.

"Captain?" Nan Ge suddenly stepped forward nervously, but then stopped hesitantly, looking at Tang Lin worriedly from a distance, "Why are you crying..."

Everyone was stunned, and followed her gaze, only to see Tang Lin standing there in a daze, without much expression on his face, but the tears were not fake.

Fan Peiyang was the closest to him, and almost subconsciously pulled him towards him. He held Tang Lin's arm very hard, with tension that he didn't realize.

Tang Lin blinked and regained his senses.

Four eyes facing each other.

Fan Peiyang saw the unresolved sadness in those eyes that had not receded from the moisture.

temple.

The gatekeepers lay flat at the bottom of the abyss, not only did not get up in a hurry, but also called up the projection screen to watch around leisurely.

9/10 despises this almost dereliction of duty, but when the urging and reprimanding in his ears become more and more ugly——

[With so many of you, can't you stop a group of bugs! 】

[Is it because I have been a consultant for a few days and forgot how to fight! 】

[The trial area is not a place for you to retire, don't think that you are not a gatekeeper, any accidents at the gate have nothing to do with you——]

The blame is on your back, so love whoever you want.

Although Boreas couldn't understand the freedom and laziness of the guys at the bottom of the pit, his work code has always been that giving and rewarding are equal, and he keeps a respectful distance from paying labor to the ungrateful.

"What's the situation, the emergency procedures are really activated?!" 7/10 lying not far away suddenly bluffed.

The area of ​​the projection screen hanging above the bottom of the pit has been enlarged enough to cover every "lying position". In order to match the angle of onlookers, Boreas can only lie down again, so now he can clearly see the main controller when he raises his eyes. There are eleven helpless passers-by in front of the room door.

"If you don't activate the door, it will be broken open," Paine said. "I guess the upper part will be scared into a cold sweat."

Sobek didn't know what happened at all, and was almost as confused as the passer-by in the screen: "What emergency procedures?"

"You have only been guarding the gate for a short time, so you don't know yet," Sif explained, "The main control room is different from the recovery room, because it is too important, and there is a self-protection program. Once the energy of illegal intrusion reaches the warning value, It would simply cut off the energy supply of all owl systems around it."

Sobek: "All?"

Sif: "Yes, this space deep in the arena is actually independent of the entire 9/10 level, so cutting off the energy supply in this space will not affect the operation of the outside level."

It was only now that Sobek really understood the meaning of emergency procedures.

The stationery trees of the breakers are maintained by the energy of the owl system. Cutting off the energy is tantamount to depriving them of their stationery trees and turning them back into ordinary people. Naturally, it is impossible to pose any threat to the entrance of the main control room.

The situation on the projection screen also confirmed this point, 11 people were facing the gate, only Huo Xu was still using his special ability in vain.

The eyes of all the gatekeepers naturally fell on him.

"Speaking of which, who of you would have thought that this kid actually belonged to the gatekeeper and the woman on Earth..." Vader still couldn't digest this heavy information, and it was difficult for him to spit out the word "child".

As early as when the projection screen was called up at the bottom of the flat pit, they reviewed the battle situation in the arena for the first time, because they all remembered that Huo Xu didn't have an owl pattern on his arm.As a result, after looking back, it wasn't just about the pattern, it simply shattered their outlook on life, planet, and relationship, and smashed them to pieces.

5/10 said: "Not only did they have it, but they also avoided everyone and hid this guy in the dungeon, and then this guy really grew up safely!"

Demos: "Not only safe, but also strong."

All gatekeepers: "..."

This series of probability is lower than the destruction of the main control room.

[Attention all consultants——]

The contact person in the ear was changed back to the polite young lady at some point.

【Emergency procedures have cut off the energy supply of owls on all passers-by around the main control room. All their stationery trees and physical enhancements obtained in the wishing house have disappeared. Please go to the main control room deep in the temple as soon as possible. Give them the final touch. 】

All the gatekeepers exchanged indescribable glances. How dare you delay until now, and haven't sent a new operation team in yet?Those people are so precious, they don't even want to go in and go through the motions, and they don't want to close it!

"The emergency procedures were activated too late," 8/10 was the first to speak out, gasping for air crazily as he spoke, "We are now seriously injured—"

7/10 responded immediately: "Yes, my whole body hurts..."

Demos sighed: "My waist, back, and legs are all broken, and my arm is fine, just a little misalignment..."

Paine: "Call someone else..."

Tyr: "But it's better to send another team to lift us out of the pit..."

9/10: "The pit is indeed deep, I can testify."

After a while of silence on the contact voice side, it was cut off abruptly, probably because he was afraid that the uncontrollable foul language would be passed on, which would affect the stability and unity among colleagues.

The world is finally quiet.

For the first time, all the guards relaxed and looked up at the projection screen comfortably.It's great to be a remote onlooker watching the crowd.

but--

"They're going to die..." 6/10 stared at the eleven faces on the projection screen, suddenly feeling a little complicated.

"Without the stationery tree, anyone sent by the higher authorities can easily deal with it." Sif's voice was flat, with a hint of sadness that she didn't realize.

They don't go, but there are people in the trial area.From the moment the emergency procedures were initiated, the outcome was doomed.

There was a silent silence at the bottom of the pit.

But 9/10 said at this time: "It's not that there is no chance of a comeback. As long as they can enter the main control room and destroy the owl system before the people sent by the above arrive, then this operation will be considered a success."

All the gatekeepers looked at him when they heard the words, they were all puzzled.

8/10 said: "Let's not discuss that they will still be trapped on this planet after destroying the main control room. I just want to ask you, how can they get into the main control room when they don't even have a stationery tree?" water?"

9/10 said: "The power to the owl system was cut off."

Everyone was confused: "What are you trying to say?"

9/10 put his hands behind his head, and said in a calm manner: "The cut off of energy supply not only means that their stationery tree disappears, but also means that the control of the owl system over their brain domain also disappears."

"That's right," Tyr interjected rarely, "When the brain control is interrupted, they will be able to communicate with anyone about any level information, and they will no longer have a splitting headache. , Disposable stationery has been damaged or healed, although the effect on the body is irreversible, because the energy conversion has been completed at that time, but the effects of consciousness, thought, and memory on the brain domain must always be maintained by the energy of the owl system , when the energy is interrupted, the effect will disappear."

Demos suddenly realized something in Tyre's words, and immediately went to watch the screen projection again.

No wonder Tang Rin lost control of his emotions the moment his energy was cut off...

"Wait, what does the disappearance of mind control have to do with them entering the main control room?" 6/10 was puzzled, "Even if the owl system no longer controls their brains, can they generate new power out of thin air?"

9/10 pondered for a few seconds, then slowly said: "Actually, there is a secret entrance to the main control room."

When several gatekeepers heard that a carp was standing upright, they immediately sat up: "Secret entrance?!"

The rest of the gatekeepers who didn't get up: "..."

Damn, the only co-author is really hurt!

Boreas also sat up again: "Yes, the secret entrance is the back door left by the designer at that time. People in the entire trial area have no authority to close it, so they have been left there."

Gatekeepers: "Where?"

Boreas: "Under the second tree on the right of the main control room, there is a grass-covered rabbit hole."

All gatekeepers: "..."

It's really childish.

"But it's too difficult to get in from there," Paine curled his lips. "What we don't know, how lucky are those guys to find it?"

"They found it." Sif, who had been staring at the projection screen, broadcast in real time.

Everyone looked at the projection screen in disbelief.

I saw that Bai Luxie had arrived under the tree at some point, and even after digging and planing a few times, he peeled off the grass, revealing a narrow opening that only one person can pass through. With an evil smug smile at the corner of his mouth, he greeted everyone: "The main entrance is here. here."

All gatekeepers: "..." Why is it the main entrance!

But this is not the point.

All eyes were directed to 9/10 in the next second, and every line of sight was sharp suspicion: "How do you know that he will find the secret entrance?"

Although Boreas' original words were "It's not that there is no chance of a comeback", but it is obvious that there is a chance for these guys, and there is a great chance, and now Bai Luxie has really found it. There was no surprise on Reas's face either, it was too suspicious!

9/10 tidied up the knitted hat, and since he mentioned the "rabbit hole", he didn't want to hide it: "I just said that the control of the energy of the owl system in their brains has been cut off, so those who broke through 9/10 and were modified People who are thrown back into the dungeon after remembering will also recover their true memories."

All the gatekeepers turned their heads to look at Bailuxie on the projection screen again, and even Tyre showed surprise on his face: "You mean he once broke through 9/10?"

"Impossible." Charon couldn't keep calm. "If he has cleared all the levels, why don't we have any impression?"

Vader: "That's right, even if I haven't tested him before, Tyr or Sif always did, but all of us remember him only this time."

"Because he didn't clear the level at that time," 9/10 said, "After he fought a few rounds with the soldiers at the time in the arena, he discovered the passage deep in the arena, and very decisively threw off his opponent, broke through I wandered inside, and then the soldier chased him in, he ran around the tree to play with others, stepped on the ground, and fell."

All gatekeepers: "..."

Bai Luxie, can you be any more boring!

9/10: "But he hasn't cleared the level and can't automatically trigger the memory reset. I can only enter the main control room in an emergency, manually control the owl system, and forcefully brainwash him."

Sobek: "The higher-ups didn't ask you to deal with him directly?"

"No. It may be that the situation was controllable at the time, and his combat power was indeed excellent, and he could continue to play a role in throwing it back into the dungeon." 9/10 said, "However, this kind of brainwashing may still be too reluctant. The owl system executes my instructions. There was a little deviation and a little extra effect."

7/10: "Specifically?"

9/10: "The owl system just emptied his memory, without resetting it, and threw it back directly into the dungeon. At the same time, everyone who has seen him, except those who are still in the dungeon, remember things about him They were all emptied at the same time, and even those who stayed in the dungeon had their memories back before he first broke through."

Charon: "But you still didn't explain why we don't remember him?"

9/10: "'All people who have seen him, except those who are still in the dungeon, the memory of the rest of the things about him will also be cleared', including you."

All gatekeepers: "..."

Is this a fucking little extra effect!

Deep in the temple, in front of the rabbit hole.

Several partners looked at Bai Lu with slanted eyes, as if they were watching Wudi open his hands: "How do you know there is a door here?!"

Bai Lu squinted and raised his eyes: "I know a lot."

The partners now finally understand why Da Sixi's [Lucky Choice] is so firm in asking them to take the white road.This is not Bai Luxie, but the key to victory!

Tang Lin breathed a sigh of relief, had secretly stabilized his emotions, and said calmly: "I'll talk about this later, hurry up and enter the main control room first."

Bai Lu was the closest to the entrance of the cave, and was ready to jump first when he heard the words.

But as soon as he lifted his foot, he was suddenly thrown down by He Lu who was next to him. The moment he fell, a flame passed over their heads and hit another tree behind them.

"Boom—"

The tall and sturdy trees were blown off directly in the middle.

Where the flames came from, five unfamiliar faces appeared out of nowhere, lined up, looking coldly at this place.

Zheng Luozhu's first reaction was to activate the [iron plate circle] defense, but he only realized it after concentrating. He no longer had a stationery tree.

"Don't worry about it anymore," the leading stranger said in a low voice, "We are the new gatekeepers, and we are responsible for dealing with you. Even if you enter the main control room, we can still chase you in. Without the stationery tree, you can't even kill the bugs." It's even better, stay here obediently and don't move, and you can die more happily."

Huo Xu's eyes flashed.

Countless icicles struck from behind the five new gatekeepers at high speed.

The five of them seemed unaware and did not move.

But when the icicle was about to touch the back of their heads, it shattered with a "click", as if there was a transparent defensive wall standing there.

"We know you still have the ability," the man smiled at Huo Xu, "It's incredible that half of the blood can conceive such an ability and awakening level, so we won't kill you, we will take you back and study it carefully."

Huo Xu looked at him silently, calm as never before.

When Mingming was fighting with 999, a word from the other party could make his blood surge, and he wished to kill the opponent without leaving any pieces.But now, even if someone despises him face to face and talks about treating him as a research object, there is no disturbance in his heart.

Because he finally knew that he didn't live for these people.

The only ones worthy of his emotions are those companions behind him.

The mental power gushed out in an instant, Huo Xu tensed his whole body, releasing all the energy, leaving no room for it!

"Whoa-"

It's not water waves, it's water curtains, and the monstrous water curtains rise from the surroundings, firmly protecting the partners in the middle.

"Everyone enter the main control room!" Huo Xu shouted.

The fatter one closest to him held his breath and was the first to enter the hole.

Bai Luxie, who was thrown aside by He Lu, got up quickly, and was the second to follow.

Then Sunday, Nange, Zheng Luozhu, Shi Fangze, Da Sixi, He Lu, Fan Peiyang.

The new gatekeeper's powerful sniper hit the water curtain several times in a row, but failed to penetrate.

The five exchanged glances and quickly stepped forward.

Tang Lin entered the hole second to last, and when he jumped off, he dragged Huo Xu in as well.

The partners slid down at a high speed in the dark tunnel, and within a few seconds, they landed one after another with "thud" and "thump".

It is not appropriate to say that they have landed, because they have indeed landed, but if you look down, you will find that they still seem to be suspended in the air.

From the day they knew the existence of the main control room, all the partners had imagined what it would look like more than once. It might be the intertwined pipelines, the dense screens, or the dazzling and complicated operation console. Of course, there should be purple light that follows everywhere.

They were all wrong.

Here is like a more beautiful and graceful wishing house, they seem to be in a boundless universe, with bright nebula and vast galaxy.

Huo Xu had never been to the wishing house, he only knew that his plan was to block the five guys with a water curtain, and after entering the main control room, he quickly tried to see if he could operate the owl system to seal the hole.Although he doesn't understand the owl system, the message that remains deep in his memory is: once you enter the main control room, everything will be fine for you.

As it turned out, there wasn't even a console in the main control room, so what would he do!

Before the entrance of the cave.

The water curtain disappeared with Huo Xu's jump, and the five new gatekeepers chased to the entrance of the cave stepping on the mud. The leader looked down, laughed contemptuously, and then jumped in without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, the hole that was open a second ago suddenly disappeared at this moment.

The other four new gatekeepers watched their colleague's feet hit the hard ground with a "boom" sound, and their faces were stunned.

The leader was unsteady and almost fell, and became angry from embarrassment: "What's going on!"

"Don't worry, if you can't get in here, you can enter through the main entrance. Anyway, we have been granted permission." The other person said, turned and walked directly to the main control room main entrance.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the hand touched the door panel, the door panel suddenly emitted a strong purple light, and the spider web cracks that had been blown out on it disappeared instantly, as if it had been repaired and strengthened.

Then, the five new gatekeepers heard a system prompt without a trace of emotion——

"All entrances to the main control room are closed and no one is allowed to enter."

at the same time.

In the main control room, or in the "universe" where eleven partners are suspended, the mechanical sound of the owl system also sounded.

"The highest authority is detected, and the protection mode is turned on."
