This is an empty hall.
The light is dim and quiet.
In the huge hall, there were only four or five figures in black robes and crow masks on their faces, standing around a test bench in the center of the hall, busy doing experiments.
Above the few people, the only light source in the hall gathered, which were several alchemical shadowless lamps, surrounding them like flowers, casting a solid and clear white light.
In the white light, there lay a monster with two heads on the test table. Its identity was unknown. Its neck, wrists and ankles were tied with dragon leather belts. Its chest had been cut open, and two rows of pliers were cut from the test table.
Reach out on both sides, bite the edge of the incision, and pull it open to both sides, revealing the internal organs that are still slowly squirming inside the monster.
The black-robed wizards wearing crow masks were silent, holding silver knives, scissors, pliers, hooks, needles and other objects in their hands, carving carefully on the monster's internal organs, carving rows of fine runes. A few of them moved quickly,
The movements are skillful, and the occasional sound is limited to one or two words. The companions next to him will immediately wake up and cooperate with each other tacitly.
Clang.
With the sound of the golden needle falling into the tray, several wizards breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why hasn't the professor come yet?" A wizard with the number 'zero seven' marked on his crow mask turned back and looked into the depths of the hall, looking a little anxious: "It's just the last step... Didn't he talk about the slow progress of the experiment yesterday?
"
Perhaps because of the crow mask, his voice seemed a bit hoarse, and he could not distinguish between male and female.
Next to him, a wizard with the mark 'Nineteen' on his mask immediately expressed relief: "Perhaps because school is about to start, the meeting at the school has been delayed... Didn't there be a trial meeting for freshmen today?"
"They are not freshmen, they are sophomores." Another wizard sneered when he heard this: "The trial meeting we participated in is the freshman trial meeting. Those guys at level 08 have been in school for a year and they don't know how to learn.
How much magic do you have to go to the trial meeting, and I don’t know if you are fooling each other.”
"It is a good thing after all that the school is willing to change." Mask No. 19 sighed softly, as if he wanted to say something more, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back.
Perhaps touched by his words, several other wizards gathered in front of the test bench fell silent, and for a while, the entire hall became extremely quiet.
Right now.
In the darkness at the end of the hall, a little red light suddenly lit up.
Woo, woo, woo!
Short, piercing beeps and eye-catching red lights appeared alternately, breaking the silence a moment ago. Several wizards in front of the test bench were stunned for a few seconds before speaking in a panic:
"What happened?"
"Is there something wrong?"
"No, the fault is a yellow light! The red light means there is an invasion from a foreign enemy! It means the enemy has violently destroyed our security circle and killed at least one guard!"
"This is Phuket Island. Where's the enemy dares to come here and run wild?"
"Didn't the black tide set off by the Sirens at the end of last semester start from the depths of the Silent Forest?"
"Could it be school?"
As soon as this guess came out, the hall suddenly fell into a frightening silence. Compared with this possibility, they were more willing to break into the laboratory with a group of more ferocious monsters.
For a long time, under the alternating urging of flashing red lights and harsh beeps, the wizard with the mark 'Zero Three' on the mask finally said dryly: "There are indeed some bad rumors recently. If the school is responsible, then the professor must have
We are trapped... We must retreat immediately."
"retreat?!"
The wizard codenamed Zero Seven was furious. He pointed at the test bench, then counted dots around him, and asked sternly: "What should I do with this ogre? Two-headed ogres are rare to begin with, not to mention that it has already been taught.
The two experiments are still alive... Also, what about the other test subjects?"
Now that he has made up his mind, as the crow with the highest number present, Rei San will not be easily swayed by his companions.
"You can continue to experiment only if you are alive."
He looked around, seeming to convince others, but also seemed to be convincing himself: "Only by continuing to stay in school, can we have enough resources to complete these experiments... Why did the professor arrange the laboratory deep in the Silent Forest? Isn't it right here?"
Can a deserted place accommodate our experiments?”
"Besides, I didn't say that these experimental products were wasted." After saying that, Zero Three turned to look at Zero Seven, and said in a sincere tone: "Since you are worried, take Eleven and Nineteen out to check, and I will put the protective circle
The authority is given to you. If you are from the school, you must block it...it won't take long."
Then he looked at the other wizard who had remained silent from beginning to end: "Lingwu and I will take care of this ogre. I have a good place to go, and maybe I can give the school a surprise."
At the end of the sentence, he seemed to be gritting his teeth.
"Don't cause trouble." The wizard codenamed Zero Five frowned slightly, but did not completely reject the arrangement: "The professor did not want to cause trouble for the school by taking us to do experiments."
"I don't want to get into trouble, I just want to clean up my mess."
Ling San sighed slightly, but did not hide his plan: "This ogre, and some other experimental subjects were secretly brought out from the Black Prison... They all carry the anchor points of the Black Prison, I
I just want to send them back first, and if the professor arranges it well, we can catch it again...and if it is someone from the school, we must clean this place as clean as possible."
Compared with Zero Five, who was slightly hesitant, Zero Seven, who was the most impatient, showed superhuman determination.
"That's it." He turned his head and pointed to his companions Eleven and Nineteen: "Come with me to the front to check, and be careful not to reveal your identity."
Then he glanced at Lingsan again: "I'll leave this to you."
After saying that, without waiting for Zero San's answer, he jumped up and turned into a rainbow light, disappearing into the depths of the dark hall. The other two companions didn't say anything and followed him without hesitation.
Ling San lowered his head silently, put on the silk gloves on his hands, and began to quickly sew up the wound of the ogre. Ling Wu sighed slightly, put on the silk gloves again, and began to help.
Faintly, the sound of mantras was heard in the distance, and from time to time, the whole hall could be felt trembling, and even the shadowless lamp above the test bench swayed several times.
But the two crows in front of the test bed remained calm enough from beginning to end.
Until a small blue bird with a flash of fire broke through the darkness of the hall, suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, and shouted in their familiar hoarse voice:
"It's from the school!"
"They all wear face-killing masks...cannot use curses on them."
"We will leave from the other direction! You have up to three minutes!"
When Ling San heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He dropped the needle and thread in his hand, sighed deeply, and said to Ling Wu: "There is no time, pour two doses of magic potion into its mouth, and leave the rest to fate."
