Chapter 745: The fifth floor of the underground palace, deputy leader Li Ming (please vote for the big chapter)
underground palace
Deep in the deep passage, there is silence.
There is no hustle and bustle, no noise of any pollution.
This passage is so quiet, as quiet as leading to an abyss of nothing.
He Ao walked down the narrow stairs step by step.
The staircase from the fourth to the fifth floor is not straight, but spiral. However, it does not seem to go completely straight down, but has a winding slope.
This is an "oblique" spiral shape. Its "oblique" slope is not large, but He Ao can feel the obvious "incline".
As the steps were stepped on step by step, after a short descent, an open arc-top door appeared in front of him.
Outside the small door is an empty space illuminated by dim light.
The entire space is like a huge upright 'bowl'. The ground is flat, but the walls are not vertical, but curve upward in a certain arc.
Damaged consoles are scattered throughout the space.
If we really want to find a ‘characteristic’ for this space, it would be ‘asymmetry’.
Although the semi-curved wall is curved, the curvature seems to be different in every place.
Scattered consoles seem to be scattered throughout the space, but each console has a different shape and size, and it seems that any two consoles are "asymmetrical", whether it is mirror symmetry or central symmetry.
Strictly speaking, all the items in this space are "messy" distributed in the space, with no rules at all.
He Ao walked out of the small door and walked through the destroyed operating desks step by step.
Then, after walking around a large operation desk with flashing electric lights, he finally saw the only thing in the entire space that showed a little bit of 'regularity'.
It was a cylindrical control console with only half of it left. Its diameter was about three meters and its height seemed to be at least two meters. To humans, this 'control console' was more like a 'platform'.
A huge crack started from one side of the console and ran diagonally downward through the entire console. It was like a giant hand grabbing half of the console and tearing it apart.
For two.
The parts on the ground remained in place, while the torn parts were thrown aside like garbage.
The destroyed circuit boards and lines were still sparkling with scattered sparks until now.
"Well?"
In front of the huge damaged operating table, a crouched figure spotted He Ao walking step by step. Her eyes widened, as if she was surprised, and then she started to squirm violently.
Her hands were tied behind her back by some kind of black 'rope', and her legs were also entangled with the black rope. The end of the rope was wrapped around her head, sealing her mouth tightly.
"Fiya?"
He Ao also discovered the woman tied up in front of the operating table. He looked at her with surprise and confusion, "Why are you here?"
He activated his super memory and determined the identity of the other party through the placed mark. Then he directly pulled out the black broadsword that was stuck on his back and walked over quickly, "I'll see if I can cut off your rope. Don't mess around."
move."
“Uh-huh!
!”
However, Feiya looked up and looked behind He Ao, squirming wildly and violently, as if she wanted to remind He Ao,
He Ao, who had already walked in front of Feiya, was stunned for a moment, then he immediately turned around and looked behind him with the black broad sword in hand.
boom--
The crisp sound of gold and iron echoing in the silent space.
The bone sword in He Ao's hand was retrieved through the air, and he suddenly used force to hold the dark dagger coming from behind. The huge impact force acted on the two people at the same time, knocking them away and widening the distance.
"My acting skills are not good?"
There was a confused whisper from behind.
"fine."
He Ao held both swords in his hands and turned to look behind him.
"Then it seems you never believed me."
The 'dagger' in Feiya's hand softened and merged with the structure of the subsequent parts, forming a 'black' rope in her hand.
He Ao stared at the former 'companion' in front of him. Strictly speaking, Feiya's disguise was really good. She not only deceived He Ao, she also deceived herself.
When she looked behind He Ao just now, the information in her mind read by Super Memory were all "be careful" and "look behind you".
"Tenderness and cooperation can lower the vigilance of your companions, but it can't change the fact that you're paddling and not using any force during the whole process, right?"
He Ao held the two swords in his hands and looked at the woman in front of him with a smile, "Should I continue to call you 'Fiya'? Or should I call you Miss Liming's deputy chief?"
"It seems you know more than I thought."
Feiya raised her hand and took off her glasses, crushed them suddenly, then took off the hairpin that was a little loose behind her head, shook her head, and the gray-blond hair fell down like a waterfall.
The whole person's aura instantly changed from lazy to sharp and arrogant.
She raised her hand, popped out a rubber band, and simply tied her hair together, looking at He Ao, "But if I just act weak, I won't be suspected of being the 'Deputy Leader of Dawn', right?"
Feiya's disguise was indeed okay, and He Ao would not completely imagine her as a 'traitor' just because of her teammates' dishonesty. He looked at Feiya and softly uttered a word, "Exchange."
Feiya's expression changed.
"The ultimate ability of the 'angel' who hides behind the scenes and controls everything is not detailed space control, but 'exchange',"
He Ao looked at her, "The 'closeness' of Newland City-State and the Underground Palace at the spatial level does not mean that the underground palace will come to Newland City-State, but that the two will 'exchange' places."
Newland City-State will appear in the ruins, replacing the location of the underground palace, and the underground palace will appear in the real world, replacing Newland City-State.
And this can explain why the angel behind the scenes does not have the coordinates of the main world and can still open the connection between the ruins and the main world.
He used a 'trick' method to anchor Newland City-State through occult means, and then directly bypassed the time and space coordinates, allowing Newland City-State and the underground palace to 'exchange' places.
He Ao carefully observed Feiya's movements and continued, "I think this kind of 'exchange' is not completely unconditional. It also needs to meet some mystical 'ritual conditions'.
"For example, both parties to the exchange need to have some of the same characteristics, and 'chaos' is such a characteristic. The underground palace is inherently chaotic, so you only need to make Newland City State 'chaotic'.
"So you found a way to bring West into contact with the 'Gospel of Chaos', and asked him to establish the Church of Chaos, constantly creating chaos, and accelerating the 'exchange' between the two worlds. This is your 'layout' in the real world,"
This method of indirectly spreading the gospel of chaos also bypasses the God of Chaos, preventing the God of Chaos from discovering and paying attention to the main world, and investing more power to affect the 'exchange'.
He Ao paused, "Of course, you cannot completely control the Chaos Church, which caused West's excessive operations to attract the attention of the institute and attract the off-board factor 'Hao Yi', so you have to take the opportunity to come in person."
The city-state of Newland will take charge of the next thing."
"According to your theory, my visit to Newland City-State seems to be of no use?"
Feiya looked at He Ao with a smile, "As a member of Moonlight, I can't possibly cause chaos on my own initiative. And since you were with me the whole time, you can see that I didn't do anything."
"You have actually accomplished what you wanted to do, right under my nose, haven't you?"
He Ao looked at her calmly, "We opened the door and went outside the 'settlement' and met Carlin. Everything happened by chance, wasn't it?"
Feiya's smiling face gradually darkened.
"Compared with the chaotic church arranged by the main world, you also chose a 'chaotic back-up' in the underground palace,"
He Ao looked at her, moved his body slightly, and said slowly,
"That is a special bewitching parasitic monster that can reach B level and escaped from the fourth floor.
"The reason why Carlin and his friends hiding in the settlement can survive for so long is not because they are lucky enough, but because they were selected as 'livestock' by the parasitic monster from the beginning and were raised by the monster.
"The reason why there are no powerful monsters and no vines spreading near the settlement is because there has always been a more powerful 'monster' lurking in this settlement.
"And Carlin was able to go down to the second stairwell without being attacked by the big snake hiding in the vines, just because the parasitic monster was always on his body."
He Ao looked at Feiya's increasingly serious expression, "And the purpose of you opening the 'door' is not to let us pass, but to let the invisible parasitic monster 'come over' that is not strong enough.
"I'm afraid it is parasitic in a nearby settlement. It can temporarily break away from the parasitized person and quickly pass through the 'door' in an invisible manner.
"Presumably after that monster came over, it parasitized Kodo or Chen Lin who was present. Chen Lin, you don't know much about it, and it's not under the control of the plan, so the person you actually chose was Kodo?"
Looking at Feiya's increasingly serious face, He Ao paused for a moment, tightened the hilt of the sword in his hand slightly, continued to move his body, and then said,
"Of course, according to the rules of exchange, before the two worlds were not so 'close' and there were not enough 'lives' passing through the door, a powerful extraordinary life might need another similar extraordinary being to reach the opposite world.
The 'exchange' of life, so you also have to pass through the 'door' at the same time,
"That's why you ask everyone in a big way to help you find the 'door' so that you can pass through the 'door' smoothly.
"However, there was an unexpected condition in the whole plan, that is, the intervention of the research institute including myself and the power of 'Hao Yi'. In order to prevent Hao Yi from delaying your plan, you carefully sent Hao Yi away and made sure that Hao Yi
It was only after Yi left the Newland city-state that large-scale 'exchange' was fully activated.
"And in order to avoid long nights and dreams, you no longer have time to wait for me, a 'C-level', to leave on my own, and if I stay in Newland City-State, it will definitely affect your plans, so you simply took me into the 'Underground Palace' with you.
"
He Ao raised his swords slightly, moved slowly, and looked at Feiya's face carefully, "And you have also prepared a 'big gift' for me. Those 'goat demons' guarding in front of the settlement, strictly speaking,
You said, you shouldn’t appear near the settlement so soon, right?”
Five C-level monsters with peak strength and above would be a disaster for any ordinary C-level monster.
"Great analysis, but I'm still a little curious,"
Feiya raised the black 'rope' in her hand. These soft ropes quickly straightened into a 'long stick'. She looked at He Ao who had turned his back to the open area and adjusted his posture, "How did you know?
Am I the deputy leader of Liming?"
Dawn did not appear in all of He Ao's reasoning, and it was difficult for her to imagine how He Ao could learn her true identity.
Only Leader Li Ming in this world has seen her true face.
"Guess."
Ho shrugged.
From the situation in the main world, we can know that the deputy leader of Dawn is obviously deeply involved in this matter, and judging from Rob's memory, he just assigned a task to Dawn's people not long ago.
For such a powerful B-class, there is no reason why she still doesn't show up even if the main world is like that.
Unless, she is not in the main world.
Under the circumstances at that time, there was no ruin passage and no other powerful strange events. There were only two people who left the main world, He Ao and Feiya.
After all the answers have been eliminated, the last answer, even if it is impossible, has a high probability of being the truth.
Judging from Feiya's ability, since she can take the power of others, she may not be able to temporarily 'remove' her own power and pass through the 'door' disguised as a C-level person.
If He Ao hadn't guessed that Feiya was a B-class, he would have been dead if he had resisted the sneak attack just now with the power of a C-class.
"You are very smart,"
Feiya put the long stick in her hand in front of her, and she sighed softly, "You are even smarter than I imagined. You can build the framework of the entire incident with just the few clues you found. Even
Uncover the truth behind the curtain.
"I am far inferior to you in this regard. If you had stood in my position and made arrangements, I am afraid that things would have been completed by now.
"West has indeed done an extremely bad thing by attracting you to the city-state of Newland.
"Fortunately, I didn't leave you in the real world, otherwise there would have been a big problem in the real world.
"And you are here now. Even if you have deduced everything, it is impossible to tell the other side. The arrival of eternity is unstoppable."
She raised her head and stared at He Ao, with strong and twisted fanaticism flashing in her eyes,
"In the face of the great momentum, in the face of the vast and great existence, any strategy, wisdom, and strength are nothing but as small as dust.
"You can never resist the coming of a great existence!"
"so,"
He Ao raised the sword in his hand and leaned his wrist lightly on his coat pocket. There was a straw amulet stained with some blood. He moved his body and watched Feiya's movements.
"When your great existence comes, what will Newland City-state and the entire main world look like? Is it the same as this 'underground palace' full of blood and madness?"
Feiya's strength actually exceeded his expectations. He had been injured and exhausted from fighting all the way until now, but Feiya was still at her peak.
After he had just separated from Feiya, the position he was standing in was not good. He was backed by several control consoles connected together, which would reduce the space for him to move during a real battle.
So while reasoning to distract Feiya, he adjusted his position and tried to improve his position.
"It is their honor to have their flesh and soul sacrificed for eternity."
Feiya took hold of the long stick and took a step forward. She flicked the long stick in her hand, causing a sonic boom to explode.
Obviously, she had discovered He Ao's intention, and she could not let He Ao delay any longer.
"Is it an honor?"
He Ao looked at the empty space behind Feiya and suddenly whispered, "The 'angel' who controls everything is 'outside' the underground palace?"
This seems to be the last level of the underground palace.
Theoretically, this floor should be where the angel stayed, but there is no trace of the angel here.
Perhaps due to the range of certain abilities, it seems that the 'angel' is not in the underground palace.
But he can't be too far away from the underground palace, so there should be a 'passage' to leave the underground palace.
"You can't see him anymore,"
Feiya raised the long stick in her hand, and her figure disappeared instantly, "You are so outstanding, as outstanding as the brightest pearl under the night, but actually I don't want to kill you personally,"
boom--
With a crisp sound, she looked at He Ao who was holding her long stick with a black broad sword, "Why don't you die on the fourth floor?"
"Probably for,"
He Olympus used boxing skills, raised the black broad sword in his hand violently, and swung the long stick away. When Feiya retreated, he touched the ground with both feet, raised the bone sword, and the figure rushed out like a phantom.
Destroy the mountain with force!
The sharp sword light is like a magic weapon that splits mountains and divides seas, falling from the sky,
