The air in the pipe was blown by the wind brought about by his rapid shuttle.

But Su Wen seemed completely unaffected.

His eyes were firm and sharp, staring straight ahead.

Behind him, the endless blue light gradually dissipated, but his figure was already sprinting towards the destination at full speed.

at the same time,

In the darker and colder air of this tunnel.

A group of men in tight-fitting black combat uniforms with cold faces were ruthlessly stuffing young boys and girls into narrow iron cages.

Those innocent lives trembled and wailed in this ruthless cage.

But outside the cage,

A burly man had disdain and contempt on his lips.

He even did not restrain his inner disgust and contempt at all, but instead spat fiercely into the cage:

"You humble little trash.

Grandpa, I am very compassionate and willing to give you this so-called "evolution" opportunity. It is a blessing that you have cultivated for several lifetimes.

If it weren't for the generous reward, do you think I would be willing to come to these shabby places or stay with you sewer wastes?"

And accompanied by his threats.

In this abyss of despair, the cries of children kept rising one after another, like the most piercing wind in the night sky penetrating the dark tunnel.

However,

In this torrent of despair, there was a little girl just huddled in the darkest corner of the cage.

She was like a wounded kitten, not daring to make any noise and just enduring it all silently.

The girl's body was shaking, but not because of fear, but because of the anger and unwillingness in her heart.

Those clear but gloomy eyes flickered secretly from time to time, which was the spark of hatred.

And it has begun to fully develop.

at the same time,

At the moment when most of the deans of Laurenz Riel branch colleges were called to [Permanent Magnet - Lana Bodu],

While most of the freshmen were already entering the Wall of Hercules on a huge ship on the eve of the entrance night.

A corner of Permanent Magnet College.

The quaint study room where the old dean Constance stayed temporarily was filled with an unknown warmth and tranquility.

This is a room full of traces of time. On the towering bookshelf, yellowed books are like guardians of time, quietly telling stories of the past.

In the fireplace, the firewood crackled and released an orange halo, giving the entire space a soft and nostalgic color.

And this old man with a kind face and deep eyes was reclining on a large wooden chair and seemed to have fallen into sleep.

His breathing was slow and long, like the rhythm of distant waves lapping at the shore, making people feel at ease involuntarily.

However,

The door of this study room has not been completely closed.

Instead, a narrow gap was left, as if it was a passage specially reserved for a guest who was about to visit.

The artificial air system of Atlantis's second underwater city uses artificial wind channels to gently blow through the corridors with the unique salty and humid atmosphere of the ocean.

But at this moment,

A sound of footsteps approaching from far away broke the tranquility.

Outside the crack of the door, a figure slowly appeared:

He was an old Slavic man with a rough appearance, and his face was as sharp and angular as a sculpture.

Even when he opened the door and walked out, he still had a classic Russian hearty laugh and was even ready to give old Constance a bear hug.

However, when his eyes touched the slowly opening, slightly tired but still determined eyes of old Constance, the greeting to his friend suddenly solidified.

The old dean coughed twice and then broke the deadlock:

"Gustav,

Are you here this time?

It feels like I haven’t seen you for a long time.”

The old Slavic man closed the door to the study and completely sealed the space here:

"It should be said that you have been absent from the Council of Sages too many times, Constance."

"After all, things in the Great Library are quite busy, but judging from what happened to Riley Goss, the group of ruin scholars should have already started taking action.

Eternal Dawn took the stripped remains of the Silver Mechanical City war and made it into the Garden of Eden of Aquarius.

O eternal Eden,

Although it and genetic ascension are extremely coveted technologies, it may just be a collapsed self-consistent star structure now."

And hearing him say that,

Gustav showed a meaningful smile:

"Compared to the 'Masquerade' that that group of lunatics refer to themselves as, you still like to call them ruin scholars,

Constance.”

The old dean did not answer this question directly. He asked instead:

"It is said that they also carried out similar operations in the Russian Federation?"

"[Pearl of the Baltic Sea] Bornholm Island Group,

Not long ago, they secretly used electromagnetic storms to expand and recreate a super giant ruins,

This matter should not be a secret in the Great Library.

Although the corresponding ruins are already in the hands of Duke Christopher, who acts extremely quickly.

But with the assistance of that archaeologist, Old Kane, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

"I hope so,

The matter of the Wall of Heracles cannot be delayed any longer. Therefore, this operation is my last chance.

I know what you want to ask me.

But I also know:

Gustave, you are here to act on behalf of the Council of Sages [Accountability]."

Old Constance finally just slowly closed the book in his hand,

"in other words,

The test for new students is actually just a cover-up.

In my plan, the ones who really take action are the so-called ‘second-level peak examiners’.”

"It's hard to command these young people now."

And thought of this.

Gustav nodded instead,

"But don't tell me yet, the current Duke Christopher is indeed very good.

At least I haven’t had many face-to-face interactions with my juniors.

But I don’t know how many times I’ve heard the wonderful story of little Angelia from Evonne Titus, who always doesn’t treat us old guys well.

She really rarely praised a young man like this,

well,

Maybe it’s also the reason for little Angelia’s mother. Little Pamela is indeed good enough, but it’s a pity that she didn’t catch up with the origin era.”

"If you are asking if there are any outstanding young people, Lao Yu actually recommended one to me."

Old Constance couldn't help but smile as he thought of his previous dealings with the young man in Yu Kaiji's museum:

"certainly,

There are treasures in the sealing room for him to choose from, and there are even corresponding high-security information.

Fortunately, that kid hasn't upgraded so quickly yet. If it were delayed for another month or two, I'm afraid he would have been upgraded to the third level."

Thinking of this,

He couldn't help but cough again,

"Gustave, I know what you are here for. The Great Library should not be involved in too many processes of modern civilization.

not to mention,

It is a key point on the edge of the ruins of Eternal Dawn like the Wall of Hercules, and the many factors involved are really too complicated.

But what if I say that I did not conduct transactions with those ruin scholars?"

"You just said that,

It may not be of any use."
