Chapter 1,103: Dangerous Situation in the City (10)
"Uh... So Mr. Ban, what will happen if Gong Shuqiu is allowed to enter the forbidden area?" Thief Zhi followed the crowd and showed a solemn look like the others, but he raised such a question.
p>
He knew that the forbidden area was important, but he didn't know exactly what was in it.
This is the same for Gao Jianli, Xue Nu, and Big Hammer, so they also set their sights on the senior class master.
"Well..." Master Ban had a gloomy face, glanced around at the people who were watching him, and replied in a quiet voice, "I don't know about this either, old man."
"Ouch!" Pirate Zhi rolled his eyes when he heard this, "You don't know!"
Sledgehammer hugged himself in front of him with both hands, and said in a sad tone, "Then why do you have such a long face?"
Master Ban choked back angrily, "I don't know the specifics, but outsiders must not be allowed to enter the forbidden area, let alone public losers... In short, it will not work if others are allowed to enter, that's for sure!"
Halfway through the words, Master Ben got stuck for a moment and skipped some content in an unclear manner.
Gao Jianli and the others were not interested in asking why at this time. Anyway, there must be a reason for the old man not to say anything.
"Then..." The master of the Thieves and Planters was really concerned about the forbidden area. After hesitating, he suggested, "How about I turn around and have a look after I run out later?"
As soon as he said this, Gao Jianli immediately objected, "No, you must find the giants as soon as possible to report the situation in the city, and there must be no extraneous problems!"
"But..." Thief Zhi looked at Master Ban with a troubled expression on his face.
Fortunately, Master Ben solved his problem, waved his hand and sighed, "It's not necessary, it's useless if you go, and you can't get in."
"Isn't the door open?" Taizhi was stunned and asked subconsciously.
The class master shook his head to the gear mechanism aside, "Isn't it locked again?"
"Can't open here?"
Master Ban shook his head, "No, all the organs in the forbidden area operate independently. The Black Ink Core Secret Room can only be viewed, not moved."
"And now the door can no longer be opened at all."
"What do you say?" Pirate Zhi simply started chatting with Master Ban.
Gao Jianli didn't care. He was still regulating his inner breath. When it was time to take action, he could chat as much as he wanted.
"The door to the forbidden area is very special. It is always locked. To open it from the outside requires the ink core key to be unlocked - so it can only be opened with the permission of the giant or a majority vote."
"And once someone enters the inside, another lock can be locked from the inside."
"That lock cannot be unlocked with any key, not even the person who locks it can unlock it. It will only be unlocked when you completely pass all the mechanisms in the forbidden area and come out of the exit."
Sledgehammer felt dizzy after hearing this, scratched his head and muttered, "It's quite troublesome to break the door..."
Thief Zhi grasped the key point, "Then if the person who entered did not break out and died directly inside the forbidden area, wouldn't this door never be opened?"
Master Ban shook his head again, "No, there is another secret passage in the forbidden area. Going in from there is the end of the forbidden area."
"But..."
Thief Zhi smiled like he was playing treasure and said, "But you don't know, do you?"
Master Ben slapped the boy's outstretched finger away and said angrily, "Oh, then you are wrong, old man, I know."
"I just want to take that path, but the steps are much more troublesome. I don't think you can understand it just by dictating it."
"Hey!" Thief Zhi crossed his arms, leaned back, and curled his lips, "How do you know I can't remember it if you don't tell me?"
But Master Ban waved his hands repeatedly, "Forget it, forget it, don't think about it and concentrate on reporting the news to the giants."
"Weizhuang blocked us here but he wasn't worried at all. It's clear that he's just waiting for the giants to get in, or he's more anxious over there."
"But..." Master Ban picked up what he had just interrupted, "If Gong Shuqiu got the key to the ink core and the mechanism map, he should be able to find the secret passage directly without entering from the main entrance of the forbidden area.
?"
"And he took the initiative to lock it, cutting off his own escape route."
"Even if his machine skills are... passable, they are still extremely dangerous. It is not something he would do anyway."
"Is it possible that the old guy is so blind that he can't understand the drawings?" Master Ban was not so much making a guess as he was maliciously cursing the other person. Digu said this, which made Pirates scratch his head.
p>
"In short... according to your statement, there is a high probability that the person who goes in is not a public loser?" Thief Zhi ignored the curse at the end and summarized the previous sentences.
Master Ban hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Judging from the current request for money, the probability of the public losing a grudge is low.
"So, is this good news?" Thieves Zhi asked again.
Master Ban nodded again, "That's right."
"The mechanisms in the forbidden area are quite difficult to set up. Some of them are difficult for even martial arts masters like you to deal with."
"As long as it's not someone like Gong Shuqiu who is also proficient in mechanism skills, the chance of safely breaking through the forbidden area is not high."
The snow girl was silently listening to the conversation between the two, and somehow she always had a bad feeling in her heart.
Her subconscious told her that maybe the people who entered the forbidden area were completely unexpected.
At this time, the disciple responsible for observing the external situation interrupted the chat, "Commanders, there is a situation outside!"
Thief Zhi was the fastest and was the first to reach the observation hole, peering into the central hall outside.
The other people stopped when they saw this. Just one person could watch and wait for Thief Zhi to explain it later.
And in Thief Zhi's sight, he only saw a figure whose whole body was covered by a black robe with strange patterns. No physical features could be seen clearly, and even men and women could not be distinguished. He walked to the table and meditated with his eyes closed while leaning on a shark's tooth.
Wei Zhuang stood beside him and whispered a few words to him.
These few words didn't seem to be good news, and Wei Zhuang's face was obviously gloomy.
After the two parties exchanged a few words, the shadow left.
Later, after Wei Zhuang mobilized several more Qin soldiers, the central hall returned to calm.
After seeing that Thief Zhi was gone and other noteworthy things happened, he left the observation position.
"What happened?" Snow Girl was the first to ask.
"Uh..." Daozhi organized his words, "A man dressed in black and completely faceless came to Wei Zhuang - I think he should be the black unicorn."
"He gives people a very strange feeling. He just... doesn't look like a specific person, or... in short, I feel that he fits the image of a master of disguise."
Although the whole story is based on men’s intuition, everyone chose to believe in Robber Zhi.
Listening to his description, this man indeed looks like a master of disguise who doesn't want to reveal his true appearance.
