We Agreed to Set Sail, but You Became the Ruler of the Deep Sea?

At this time

Xiao Wan took out her ID card and swiped it on a device at the door.

However, the door that should have been opened was still closed.

Obviously, the door had been locked from the inside in a special way.

"Director Shad, you are in there, right?"

Xiao Wan asked in a deep voice.

But there was no response from the other end of the door.

Seeing this, Xia En stepped forward and prepared to open the door violently.

But at this time, Xiao Wan stopped him.

"The door of the central room has a unique restriction. Forcibly opening it may cause the control system to lock itself."

This design was originally designed to prevent foreign enemies from breaking in by force.

However, the designer obviously did not expect that there was a hidden traitor among the directors of Area A.

At this time.

Shad in the room seemed to finally hear the movement outside the door.

He sneered: "Director Wan, you are finally here."

"However, you are too late. I have activated the self-locking program of the central room, and the wall is strong enough to resist the attack of legendary strongmen."

"It is absolutely impossible for you to break in from outside the room."

"Now, as long as I crack the authority of the control system, I can open the passage to the restricted area of ​​the research institute."

Shad's tone was full of pride: "By then, whether it is the bronze dragon or the research results of the fire king so far."

"They will all be in our pockets!"

"And you can only watch this scene happen."

Bronze dragon.

Research results.

Hearing these words, Xia En's mind turned rapidly.

He suddenly noticed a strange thing that he had overlooked before.

If this Director Shad was also a member of the [Truth Society] in the future, he would never say such a thing.

Because everything inside [Da Yan] is something that has disappeared in the past.

That bronze dragon is just a shadow that existed in the past.

No matter how hard the people of the [Truth Society] try, they can't bring it into reality.

Shad would say such words, which means that he is actually part of this memory scene.

He is not a member of the [Truth Society] who sneaked into this place.

But he mentioned the purpose of seizing research results, and reached a cooperation with the members of the [Truth Society] in the future.

Then, his identity is actually very clear-

This director Shad is a member of the [Truth Society] in history!

In this way, it just corresponds to Shane's previous speculation.

This invasion of the research institute is indeed an event that happened in real history.

And his initiator is none other than the [Truth Society] of this era!

Or, it is the subordinate of the [All-Knowing Sage].

After all, in this era, the name [Truth Society] may not have been born yet.

It is not difficult to know from Shad's mouth.

The purpose of their coming here is the research results of the Fire King and the bronze dragon sleeping underground.

The later [Truth Society] happened to use these past colleagues to put their consciousness into [Dayan], thus achieving an unprecedented situation -

The members of the [Truth Society] in the past and the future cooperated with each other to achieve their respective goals.

This kind of thing sounded a bit outrageous even to Xia En.

It has to be said.

The members of the [Truth Society] are indeed a group of geniuses.

However, there is always only a fine line between genius and madness.

Moreover, the destructive power that geniuses without moral constraints can cause is far greater than that of mediocre people.

However, there is one thing that Xia En didn't understand.

This research institute was clearly built by the cooperation of the Fire King and the [Truth Society].

In theory.

The [Truth Society] should be able to know the research results of the institute, why go to great lengths to rob it?

At this time, Xiao Wan also had similar doubts.

She questioned.

"Director Shad, why did you do this?"

"For so long, the Fire King should have treated you well, right? Why did you betray him?"

In response, Shad just sneered.

"If he is willing to honestly hand over the final research results to us, then of course we don't need to start this rebellion."

"But... the real traitor is the Fire King you mentioned!"

"We clearly agreed to share the research institute's results, but he was on guard against us everywhere."

"He even replaced the researchers of the core project with his own confidants, and I was transferred to this living area to be this unknown supervisor."

"And now, we are just taking back what belongs to us."

After hearing this, Xiaowan couldn't help but look surprised.

"How could it be..."

"There must be some misunderstanding!"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter anymore."

Shad sneered. "You just wait outside for everything to settle down."

Hearing this, Xia En couldn't help but frown.

To be honest.

He didn't care much about whether Shad could take away the so-called research results.

After all.

Even Shad himself was just a residual image created by the memory of [Da Yan].

Even if the [Truth Society] in this memory succeeded in obtaining the research results, what would happen?

Perhaps, such a thing had happened in real history.

What really made Shane wary was...

What is the purpose of these members of the [Truth Society] who have infiltrated into the [Great Flame]?

Could it be related to the research results mentioned by Shad?

One more thing.

Where is the [Great Flame] node that Xia En and others are looking for located in this underground research institute?

Suddenly, Xia En suddenly remembered the restricted area of ​​the research institute mentioned by Shad.

Perhaps the answers he was looking for were all there.

However, even if Xia En wanted to go to the restricted area of ​​the institute, he couldn't just watch the members of the [Truth Society] get there first.

You must take the initiative in the entire matter into your own hands.

But now.

The gate did seem to be blocking them.

At this time, the captured man on the side also taunted.

"Captain Shane, stop resisting in vain."

"You can't stop us."

"Yeah?"

Just then, a familiar voice sounded.

An elegant old woman wearing a black gauze skirt appeared in the corridor at some point.

And the moment I saw him.

The members of the [Truth Society] who had previously shown disdain suddenly changed their expressions.

A flash of fear flashed deep in his eyes. So much so that his voice trembled a little.

"Mrs. Quiet..."

The visitor was naturally Jane, whom Xia En was familiar with.

Carles, who was made of machinery and wore brass armor, was behind Jane.

Red light flashed under her nails, and white steam released from the joints.

The appearance of such a strange pair of combinations clearly creates a sense of oppression in this underground passage.

Xiao Wan on the side couldn't help but change her face slightly.

In response, Xia En's face showed a hint of joy.

"Jane, Carles, are you here?"

Apparently, after a rebellion within the institute.

Jane and Carles did not stay there stupidly, but took advantage of the chaos and came to Xia En and the others with the help of their perception of the [Thread of Destiny].

"Captain Shane.

After nodding gracefully to Xia En, Jane looked at the man who just named her identity code, with a little surprise in her eyes.

"You actually recognize me."

"This is not uncommon among the new generation of [Truth Society] members."

Compared with when facing Xia En, the attitude of the captured man was obviously much more humble.

This humility comes from the fear of Jane's past deeds.

He lowered his head and said: "I have read a few of your works by chance, madam."

“I was really shocked by the concepts and perspectives. I didn’t expect to see you here.”

"No need for compliments."

The latest chapter of this novel was first published on 6@9书#. Please go to Liujiu Book Bar to read it!

Jian said calmly: "My articles are considered deviant within the [Truth Society], and not many people are interested in them."

"Compared to this..."

With that said, Jane looked at the closed metal door on the side.

"Captain Shane, do you want to open this door?"

Shane nodded and said, "Yes."

"Then leave it to me."

After saying that, Jane took out a prism-like instrument.

His slender fingertips tapped on it quickly, as if he was inputting some instructions.

immediately.

A waterfall of codes and numbers washed past the prism.

Finally, Jane gave it another gentle tap.

There was a "beep" sound.

"Dear administrator, please come in."

Along with the prompt sound, the precision mechanical door opened.

The scene inside the central control room was exposed to everyone.

Supervisor Shad, who looks like a skinny monkey, was working on a crack in front of the operating table, with nervous excitement on his face.

But this time.

The door to the room suddenly opened, causing his body to freeze.

A look of disbelief immediately appeared on Shad's face.

"How is that possible?"

"This door has obviously implemented a self-locking program. How did you open it?"

Jane's expression was normal.

"Since it is a program, there will be loopholes that can be cracked."

"Furthermore, it seems that the procedures of the old era are not much more advanced than those of the new era."

Sometimes, the simpler and older the mechanism, the more reliable it is.

For Jane, this kind of program-controlled door is full of loopholes.

But if it was really just an ordinary iron door, Xia En would have used violence to break into it.

At this time.

Xia En didn't care what Shad's reaction was, he flashed and came directly in front of him.

Shad was just a research member, and his combat power was very weak. Naturally, he was subdued by Xia En without any resistance.

Then, Jane looked at the console in front of her.

I have to say.

The console itself is very much in the style of the [Truth Society].

The huge screen, silver-gray desktop and metallic buttons give people the feeling of being on a science fiction film set.

at this time.

The cracking progress on the screen has reached 90%, which shows that Xia En and others arrived in time.

If it had been a little later, I'm afraid it would have been like what Shad said, with members of the [Truth Society] taking the lead in breaking into the restricted area of ​​the institute.

After stopping the cracking progress, Jane turned around and asked.

"Captain Shane, what should we do now?"

Hearing this, Xia En first looked at Xiaowan who was not far away.

At this time, Xiaowan obviously had not recovered from the series of changes.

Because of the special appearance of Jane and Carlales, and the strange terms they mentioned.

The girl's expression was obviously a bit alert and uneasy.

Fortunately, with An Bing by her side, she was able to relax a little.

"Don't be afraid, Xiaowan."

"They are my companions."

An Bing said softly: "As for why we came here, the reasons behind it are too complicated to explain in a short time."

"But one thing you can be sure of is that I will always stand by you."

"Now, I hope you can help us go to the so-called forbidden area of ​​the research institute."

"There, we have something we must get."

Xiaowan was not an indecisive person. After thinking for a while, she nodded quickly.

"Okay, I understand."

"But before that, I have to block the exit of Area A first, please wait a moment."

During the communication between An Bing and Xiaowan.

Xia En looked at the three captured members of the [Truth Society] not far away.

"Captain Xia En, how are you going to deal with them?"

Jane asked.

"Ms. Jane, actually they..."

Xia En briefly explained the situation of these members of the Truth Society and his own guesses to the prosecutor.

After listening, a little surprise appeared on Jane's usually calm face.

"Projection of consciousness and thinking?"

"I didn't expect that the research of the Truth Society in this field has reached such a level."

Then, Jane couldn't help but frown and analyzed.

"Since this rebellion was originally started by the Truth Society in history, the number of people they infiltrated is probably abnormally exaggerated."

"Maybe someone has already gone to the so-called restricted area from other areas."

In the three areas of ABC, each has its own central control room.

Obviously, there is more than one passage to the restricted area.

Xia En also realized this possibility, his expression was a little solemn, and a sense of urgency arose in his heart.

Soon.

Jane also asked the same question as him.

"We came to the underground research institute to destroy the node of [Da Yan], so what is the purpose of [Truth Society]?"

Jane looked at the captured man with a thoughtful look on his face.

The man lowered his head, but still refused to answer the question.

Besides, because they were just projections of consciousness, ordinary torture was obviously ineffective against them.

Jane murmured.

"However, even if they are projections of thoughts, there must be some kind of connection between them and the souls of the original body."

"Just like [the thread of fate] will be equally entangled in their souls, and will not change because of the original body and the clone."

"... Just like [the thread of fate]?"

Hearing this, Xia En suddenly woke up.

Yes, even if it is just a projection of consciousness, there must be a connection with their souls.

Just like, Xia En's [projected body] is also a part of him.

As long as this connection is found.

It can fundamentally damage their souls.

Coincidentally, Xia En has [the Eye of Peering] that can see through this connection.

Thinking of this, Xia En did not hesitate, a faint light appeared in his eyes, and he looked at the man.
