Chapter 223 – Map

It may be difficult for Huo Lian to believe an ordinary map, but if it can be proved that the map comes from Bai Xinyue, it seems that he didn't think much about it, and he naturally put in a full sense of trust.

To sum it up, this is a three-dimensional map of the headquarters of the Demon Council. From the ground to the underground buildings, they are all carefully marked on the paper.

Those parts on the ground, Huo Lian had seen exactly the same ones in the pile of materials that Bai Xinyue worked out, which can also be regarded as evidence of its origin.Just a few months ago, Bai Xinyue seemed to have no reason to show Huo Lian the key parts hidden underground, but this time is obviously not the time to worry about it, because Huo Lian's destination is a top-secret place tens of meters deep underground. .

Secret Archives.

Rumor has it that this archive is hung under the archives department and has quite official records, but in fact only Minister Mei Xi can enter.

To put it to the extreme, this is exactly the warehouse she built for herself.

In Xiran's imperial mausoleum, Weixi, who has merged with the tomb-suppressing beast, told Huo Lian to go here no matter what before leaving. Although I don't know if it was the last time they met, Weixi's The degree of solemnity still made Huo Lian unable to take it lightly.Because of the harsh situation where the two sides were fighting, Huo Lian thought that this matter would take some time to be completed, but God gave him such a good opportunity when he didn't expect it.

No, it should be said that it was Bai Xinyue who offered the opportunity with both hands.It's just that the anger that erupted in the room before hadn't dissipated completely, and Huo Lian was still "greeting" viciously to the man with glasses in his heart, not in the mood to think about the other party's intentions at all.

Although Bai Xinyue not only provided a map, but also carefully drew the best route for this trip with a red pen, on some key nodes, Bai Xinyue also wrote precautions in small characters, such as the dead angle of the camera, the change of guards , password to open the door and the like.Although Huo Lian followed the instructions along the way and moved forward accurately, he didn't think that this was considered to be a favor from that guy.

Why should I accept the favor of the man with glasses?That thing is worthless, I don't like it at all.Right, that is it!

After walking for a while, Huo Lian had to give a very high evaluation of Bai Xinyue's ability to guide the way, because he did not encounter too much trouble.

Avoid cameras and the like, as long as you know the installation location in advance and rely on the natural speed of the monster, you can generally do it relatively easily.And Huolian did encounter a few teams of patrolling troops, but for some reason, those people's work attitude was too serious. For some corners where people might hide, they didn't even check at least Looking back, the whole patrol process was so sloppy and sloppy.

Could it be that something is happening at the headquarters of the Demon Committee?

Huo Lian listened intently, and the intermittent noise seemed to confirm this guess.It seems that this is the so-called good timing, right?

Although it is not sure whether Bai Xinyue contributed to the noise that was about to break the roof in the distance, he undoubtedly took advantage of the situation.Because of the occurrence of major events that attracted the attention of all parties, all security forces will definitely be adjusted accordingly, and these ordinary key parts will naturally become corners that no one cares about.

Suddenly, Huo Lian understood Bai Xinyue's meaning - take what should be taken, take advantage of this time to leave quickly, and don't conflict with the staff of the Demon Committee headquarters.

Cut, Bai Xinyue, what does this mean?He was simply regarded as a militant who made trouble out of nothing!Speaking of which, he is not that guy Lei Zheming, he only wears a T-shirt in the ice and snow, and he looks like he has too much energy to use up anytime and anywhere. That kind of image is the standard militant, right?

Speaking of it, it's been a long time since there was news from Lei Zheming. Although Lou Che kept his face on the surface, he actually didn't know how worried he should be.Huo Lian realized that in his current position, he had indeed been somewhat negligent in this matter.

While thinking wildly, Huo Lian followed the instructions of the map very cautiously.Although the path Bai Xinyue chose was winding, it has fully proved its accuracy along the way.At certain times, not only the straight road is the fastest, but it is easier to reach the destination by taking some necessary small detours.

No, Huolian is already standing on the first floor of the archives.

At any time and anywhere, archives are a department that few people care about. If it is not necessary to consult some old materials that have been accumulated for many years, under normal circumstances, no one would be willing to set foot in this kind of semi-closed environment with only piles of old paper and poor ventilation.Moreover, today's situation is unique among the special ones, even the security has become extremely lax, and there is no second living thing to be found in a place like the archives, which is not visited by anyone.

The archives on this floor are still built on the ground, next to the office area of ​​the archives department, and they store some commonly used materials, commonly known as the No. [-] library.Nos. [-] to [-] below are all built underground. The lower the order, the older the materials inside. Apart from the necessary regular cleaning, the things in No. [-] and No. [-] archives have already fallen asleep. For thousands of years, no one has ever read it.

But these are not the purpose of Huo Lian's trip.

If you follow the label of the archives all the way down, there are too many safety doors in the middle, so Bai Xinyue finds another way for him, and chooses another one - a road that almost no one has traveled.

This is not because no one knows the existence of this road, because in the demon committee, the five departments have already infiltrated each other to the point of being omnipotent, and it is difficult to really have any unknown secrets.The reason why no one has walked this road is because its starting point is in Minister Mei's office, and its ending point leads to the secret archives.Now it's all right, both ends are forbidden areas that shouldn't be set foot in, so it's better to stay far away for safety.

Just about to step into the office of the head of the archives department, a sweet and greasy breath enveloped Huo Lian's whole body, which made him a little dazed.Although I also know what kind of girlish preference the original owner has in terms of food, I didn't expect that such a strong smell still lingers after so long, as if every corner of the house is filled with all kinds of desserts. It seems full.

However, Meixi, or Weixi, when thinking of where she is now, Huolian still sighs involuntarily.She probably already knew her final destination early in the morning, so she was extremely greedy for the taste of the world. After all, in the desolate and cold tomb, no matter what, she couldn't find a trace of sweet smell.

Sad to be sad, Huo Lian certainly did not forget the purpose of this trip, he began to look for the next path.There was no need to actually do it, or even to see; in this particular case, just relying on the nose was enough.

In the pervasive sweetness, there is a different kind of breath floating, which seems to be absent.Being able to distinguish it from the strong smells around it is really not something that ordinary people can do, not to mention the human nose, if it is replaced by an ordinary monster here, it is not as good as a nose tempered by fire.

If the smell of desserts makes people dizzy, then such a different smell is really creepy. If I have to use one of the five flavors to describe it, it should be... bitter, bitter, sore throat for people who choke .It seems that only the soil deep in the ground can carry such an aggressive smell.For a person like Huo Lian who had just bid farewell to the grave, unpleasant memories immediately arose.

However, if you think about it from an optimistic perspective, this unique smell from the depths of the ground seems to indicate where the entrance to the secret archive is located.

The fire that followed seemed to be a special trip to wreak havoc. Under the guidance of his nose instead of his eyes, he first moved the office chair away, and then moved the exaggerated desk a few meters to the side. After being exposed, Huo Lian was sure that he had found the right place.

According to common sense, the corner of the table is regarded as a hygienic corner, even if it is cleaned every day, there will be some dust left, and if it has been bearing the weight of the table, there will be corresponding marks on the carpet, but the blanket in front of me is clearly bright Like new, nothing like dust and creases can be seen.

And when moving the desk, Huo Lian already noticed something special. The seemingly solid and heavy solid wood desk was actually much lighter than expected. This should be specially designed for easy moving back and forth.Thinking about the petite figure of the original owner here, Minister Mei, she really shouldn't create too many unnecessary obstacles for her to open the entrance.

Huo Lian lifted the carpet, revealing the trapdoor below.

Speaking of it, this is not a great mechanism design, and even concealment is just a casual appearance.In this headquarters of the Demon Council, there is no way to hide any secrets. Instead of thinking hard about the location, it is better to focus on other places—for example, setting up certain restrictions that only Meixi herself can open.

And the map provided by Bai Xinyue seems to confirm this point. It says "I don't want to see the situation after the entrance, please be careful." Compared.

Why is there nothing at the most critical moment?Is this a joke?The corner of Huo Lian's mouth twitched, he immediately lifted the map, and slammed it down viciously on the floor in the same way he swung the tray before.But Huo Lian, who was furious, seemed to have forgotten that the quality of these two things was completely different. When the thin paper was released from his hands, it began to flutter and slowly decline.

During this somewhat lengthy process, Huo Lian suddenly realized that if this thing stayed here, it would probably become evidence of Bai Xinyue's "collaboration with the enemy and traitorous country", right?No, it should be said that it will definitely become evidence, after all, there are countless handwritings of that guy on it.

The entanglement was really extremely entangled, but it didn't take long. Even though Huo Lian had an unhappy expression of frowning and curling the corners of his mouth, he finally grabbed the paper before it fell to the ground.While cursing himself for being "sick", he carefully folded it into the original shape of small tofu cubes according to the original creases, and put it in his pocket.

At this point, the fire of the trapdoor was opened. I don't know whether my mood at this time is a negative acceptance of fate, or a positive optimism, or it may be a contradiction between the two.

In short, he thought - no instruction can be regarded as the biggest instruction, since it is a method that even Bai Xinyue doesn't know, maybe it is a method that only monsters can use.Don't forget that although the Demon Committee is an organization based on monsters, monsters have always been trampled at the bottom. The only one at the top is Meixi. Keeping one's own secrets can be regarded as a matter of course.

A similar scene had happened before, so Huo Lian walked up the dark and winding stairs without any pressure.

The length of the stairs is not short, but there is no mechanism, relying on the mud wall to spiral down, it is not as scary as the hanging stairs in the secret place of Paradise Island at that time, so Huo Lian walked very easily.

Thinking about it, this is also the reason, since this is the passage that Mei Xi uses alone, there is really no need for her to set up too many dangerous obstacles for herself.

In order to protect the secrets in the archives, it is definitely necessary to set up a ban, but to be honest, as long as it is tough enough, only one ban is enough.

Huo Lian stopped in front of a rough-looking stone gate, thinking, this should be the only obstacle in this trip.

Because I am used to seeing all kinds of gorgeous and flamboyant buildings, and suddenly encountered such a simple place, to be honest, I am not used to Huolian.

If it is said that the meticulously crafted buildings belong to the gorgeous category, then the natural and uncrafted buildings can be called simple. Unfortunately, the simplicity of this one in front of me is simple enough, but it looks unfinished. look like?

After thinking about it for a while, she knew that it was impossible. According to Bai Xinyue, ever since the headquarters of the Demon Committee was selected, Meixi had secretly established such a place underground. Thousands of years had passed. No matter how much foreign work is done, it should have been completed long ago.

So, even if it's just a black stone, the shape is not very regular embedded in the wall, but Huo Lian is sure that it must be a door.

As for how to get in, Huo Lian also thought about it in advance during the process of coming down—even though he still hopes that he is just the fire bird who lives day by day and never has to worry about tomorrow, but the reality makes him have to learn the ability to plan for a rainy day, In some cases, it doesn't matter, but in others, it doesn't matter. If you wait until the danger comes and start to think about the countermeasures, then it is really not enough to pay for many lives.

Now seeing the material of the stone gate with his own eyes, Huo Lian is even more convinced that the method he came up with is correct.

There should not be a lot of black stones in nature, but as far as Huo Lian knows, there should be only one kind of black stone that is pure black without any impurities, and can completely absorb the surrounding light.He had seen it twice in the past, one was the pitch-black palace that Wei Xi took through when he first visited Paradise Island, and the other time was undoubtedly the tomb of Emperor Xiran that he had just visited.It seems that this black stone should be a specialty of the Void Clan.

Huo Lian solved a little doubt here——

It seems unreasonable to say that the ban on the secret archives is aimed at human beings. After all, in this era, more than half of the monsters surviving in the world are raised by human beings and become the private property of the powerful. Looking at the secrets in the library, it can be easily done with the monster in hand.

Besides, the cruel thing of draining the blood from the monster's body to open the mechanism has never happened before. Didn't Gonzales die from it?

It can be seen from this that to open the door made of this special stone, the blood of monsters is not enough.Since this stone comes from the Void Clan, maybe it only recognizes the blood of its own clan?

No, there should be another kind, the well-deserved royal family standing above the Void clan and above all monsters. The blood of the Sitian clan has even stronger power, and it should be able to tear away all the restrictions related to monsters!

Without any hesitation, Huo Lian skipped over the practice of "putting two drops first to test the water". The sharp nails made a sharp cut on his wrist, and the blood splattered radially, spraying the black stone door.
