As soon as Fan Ning finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Before the two inspector generals He Meng and Gang had time to express their opinions, a figure seemed to have made up its mind and decisively broke in through the gap in the world's surface.
He was Principal Sternikai who was originally located opposite the line in the Special Patrol Hall, standing behind Marquis MacAdam and Roy.
Facts have proved that the frosted glass-like border does not have any physical blocking effect. As he raises his legs to step in, the contours of his body become blunt, and the various colors of his clothes and body also become the same as those in dreams.
The same off-white ink color as Fanning.
"Mr. Fanning, I would like to take the liberty of taking a step forward." Sternikai said hello, while his eyes were shining with eagerness, "I think there is something about my future on these cloud mirrors, or at the entrance of the 'Gate of Coincidence'"
A revelation of fate, so I thought uh uh"
He raised his head and walked around Fan Ning, or around the wreckage of the "Calamity" above him for a few steps, when suddenly the sound suddenly stopped.
As if he saw something too terrifying, he froze in place, his neatly combed hair trembling and scattered, his eyes bulging out, he covered his throat with both hands, and let out a painful "uh-uh" howl.
Thump—thump—
First, he fell to his knees without any strength, and then fell sideways. His limbs were stiff and he made no sound!
A high-ranking knowledgeable person died inexplicably like this. Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and several knowledgeable people shouted to stop the few people in their party who were getting impatient.
Marquis MacAdam even raised his hand and waved. Another member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, whose nose tip had already touched the boundary of the dream, suddenly exploded on the spot, turning into scattered light blue light spots, and then appeared again.
They gathered around him and turned back into human form.
The member he captured suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and regretted his impulsive act just now.
"Stabilize your inspiration, stay rational, and strictly prohibit rash actions. Find the right time before executing the secret ritual of containment."
The death of Sternikei, the distortion of Huxley and Graham, and the loss of three consecutive members of the school made MacAdam frown, and his voice of reminder was extremely serious and low.
At this moment, more thumping sounds were heard from the end of the tunnel near the platform.
"Holy, holy, holy."
"Holy, holy, holy."
Fan Ning looked from a distance and clearly "saw" that the source of the sound came from some passengers who were originally in the waiting diversion area.
Are some of the passengers waiting for the train mixed with people who have been tempted to take elixirs?
There is some kind of attraction here, maybe because of the "disaster", maybe because of the secret atmosphere spread by the perfumer in the air, or a combination of factors, they became uncontrollable, and because most of the police forces were dispatched
When they entered the tunnel, the intensity of the guards outside became weaker. They broke out of the cordon and jumped directly into the tunnel.
These people twisted forward in a kneeling posture of worship, shouting praises, but at a pathologically fast pace, and scratching their skin excitedly. Due to excessive friction and wear and tear, colorful blood flew everywhere.
The screams of pain and excitement reappeared, and the transformation was from part to whole, and the cracks in the train ruins began to overflow with colorful paint and semi-dissolved human tissue.
The slurry flowing on the other side of the platform merged with it, quickly causing the tunnel's level to rise.
But the water level did not continue to rise, because the pigments seemed to have a certain directionality, dividing into several streams and flowing to specific areas in the tunnel.
It is exactly a few deep black hole-like pits that are inexplicably marked on the subway design map.
After Lu's order, these potholes were sealed, but the slimy paint instinctively sought to "see the holy spring". At this moment, it seemed as if it was alive, using deformed bulges to push away those covering it.
Steel plates, iron plates, or melted through layers of plastic filling, and then slid into it.
Although the final "great achievement" of the Harmony School is not today's disaster itself, nor is it the "Gate of Coincidence", it is obviously one of the links. Since one side needs to collect transmutation materials and the other side needs to concoct casualty figures, they have reached a cooperation.
The characteristics of these affected passengers are very similar to those who were affected at the graduation concert. The intervention of the police and knowledgeable people is very weak. They can kill them and break their legs, but it is difficult to make the passengers stop visiting the shrine. In such chaos,
It is also difficult to control the severity of the stun in such a situation.
Lu was almost bitten when he tried to intervene. Joan was forced into a corner by several drunken-looking passengers and had to go back to the platform through the wall. Several other police officers who opened their arms to dissuade were accidentally thrown to the ground and shot.
Sounds and screams sounded again, and the chaotic crowd in the tunnel twisted into a ball.
The main personnel in the official organization are still in preparation around Fan Ning.
Negative emotions hit Fan Ning's heart, but there was a vague feeling of coolness in her chest.
Is that where the baton is?
As soon as Fan Ning noticed that a large number of people were approaching, he put it back inside his clothes.
"His inspiration is rising." After instructing several senior investigators to arrange the secret ritual of containment, He Meng spoke, "But why did he stand at the entrance of the 'Gate of Coincidence' and also observe the remains of the 'Disaster'
But there is no sign of contamination so far? Are there any special means or rituals?"
"Maybe he is the key holder now." Gang next to him guessed, "So spirituality has the characteristic of affinity, including the 'disasters' that drift down from the path above the Hui Pagoda. The same is true, as long as he does not lose
It is basically safe to enter the climbing path intelligently, but the key form of this similar feat is not permanent, and will only be used for the process of opening the door this time."
He Meng looked at the complicated altar symbols on the ground, frowned and said: "In other words, if we want to temporarily store the remains of the 'Disaster' and hand it over to Mr. Pogorelic, the safest plan with the least casualties and pollution is to just
It is possible for Fan Ning to use the key's spirituality to pull him out of the boundary of the 'Gate of Coincidence' and into the scope of our containment ritual."
"Or in other words, Fan Ning wants to go from the inside out and come and go freely, but we want to go from the outside in, but are surrounded by dangers?"
"That's basically it." Gon nodded, "That's why I gave him that order."
Unfortunately, the time left was too tight, and Mr. Pogorelic was unable to solve the problem of the "red pool". He could only hope that these trusted confidants could complete other relatively easy goals first.
"Please explain." She kept her gaze on Fan Ning: "As an official knowledgeable person, a backbone of high-ranking officials and an artist nominated by Boethius, I ask you to perform your duties. What's wrong? How can it be funny?"
"Miss Norma Gunn, this is a serious question. It shouldn't be funny." After hearing this, Fan Ning withdrew his gaze from the chaos outside, "Okay, since the chief of the Special Patrol Office is here today, the Bologna School
The president of the Guidance School and the Holy Sun Church are also here. Let’s discuss the so-called responsibilities. I don’t think I should point it out to you.”
"Compared to other senior officials, I have not been included for a long time, but I have tried my best to thoroughly investigate every mysterious incident I encountered. After discovering suspicious clues about my involvement with the secret organization, I will decisively handle matters within my authority.
Is it considered fulfilling one's duty to promptly report matters beyond one's authority and requesting cooperation for resolution? And if an organization is faced with verified evidence, but delays in shielding it because it represents a different interest class in the empire, is this considered a breach of duty?"
"In the face of the secret ceremony of the graduation concert planned by a secret organization, I used artistic inspiration to compose a work to purify the audience to compete with it. Two principals were seriously injured and buried the bad luck of pollution, and an old pianist died on the spot.
Does this count as performing my duties? And if an organization not only forces me to give up my debut, but also tolerates it until the evil thing comes, does this count as a breach of duty?"
"In the face of the tense situation in Fort Santalan, various organizations deployed manpower to inspect hidden dangers. Now that the disaster has broken out, I have been chasing and killing four members of the evil god organization until now. Is this considered fulfilling my duties? Some organizations have only arranged from the beginning to the end.
Outside coordinators are operating while the investigators of the core force have been looking around for other things. Does this count as betraying the mission?"
"I think since there is a difference between the official organization and the evil god organization, and since there is control over the mysterious side, then at least you all agree that the former should at least be responsible for the safety of the people, right? Otherwise, I would like to ask, what do you think of the other groups?
What is the basis for being called a 'prohibited person'?"
"If the above premise does not exist, please tell me directly. As a knower, you are stronger than me, a ninth-level knowledgeable person, so you coerce me to help you obtain non-public interests. This logic is better than 'renewing on the people who have left their duty and demanding performance.
It will be much smoother for those who do their duty to continue to do their duty."
Norma Gunn couldn't help but fell silent.
Obtaining non-public benefits through coercion? I dare not say this! If there is such a thing, then what kind of 'differences between official organizations and evil organizations', 'rationality of control', and 'basis for classifying those who violate the ban' that Fan Ning presupposes
They were all dismantled. As the leader of the discussion group, the Special Inspection Office had high authority and position, but no articles of association expressed this meaning.
Pogorelic specifically instructed not to make enemies on all sides for the time being, because he judged that the resistance he would face in the future would be much greater than it is now.
And now the entire empire, the top leaders and backbones of the four major official organizations are watching here!
Everyone present couldn't help but began to make eye contact, and some began to whisper.
"Fan Ning, the risk of contamination from the remains of the God of Origin is extremely high. How come such an emergency response order is not within the scope of public responsibilities?" There was a senior investigator in the Special Inspection Office who was also a ninth-level investigator. At this time, he felt that his face was a bit embarrassing.
He couldn't help but retort.
"Extremely high risk? Emergency response? Yes, fortunately you arrived in time."
Fan Ning spread his hands, "Otherwise, if you arrive too late, the door will be closed by itself."
"You", the senior investigator's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver.
Seeing the people in the Special Patrol Office frustrated, Marquis MacAdam, who had been dissatisfied with them for a long time, finally felt a little relieved.
Many other people think similarly.
No matter what the profit motive of the Special Inspection Office is, no one can find fault with Fan Ning’s own actions and achievements!
A person who has been promoted to a knowledgeable person for less than a year has achieved this level of things, what else can he do?
In the public name of "fulfilling one's duties", it is untenable to order an insider who is not one's own. Moreover, even if Fan Ning is intimidated by force, it is difficult to receive direct personal threats.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Bishop Mir, who is at the second level of understanding like He Meng and Gang, is probably mainly watching theater now. Who dares to touch an unfamiliar high-level knowledge system? Today's real understanding of "disaster"
People with ideas, apart from the Special Patrol Office, are the Bologna School who were originally inherited.
This is related to the "order enforcer" and the top combat power of an organization. Marquis McAdam will definitely not give up the opportunity easily.
And he was at the third level of Xiaoxiao. Next to him was Viadlin, who was at the first level of Xiaoxiao. He was watching the situation. There were too many variables to determine the outcome, but it was too easy to take away the individual.
What's so stressful about just being a Deeper of Dawn? Without a suitable reason, wanting to move a "Lion Forged" artist in the discussion group would be extremely stressful. Moreover, Fan Ning is very likely to be promoted to a Deeper of Dawn or even
It's the "new moon".
"It is unnecessary for Commander Fan Ning to speculate like this." Faced with everyone's gaze, He Meng considered for a moment and said, "We respect the contribution and status of outstanding artists, and we are only collecting the wreckage of the 'Disaster' as it was given to us by Mr. Pogorelic."
As the leader of the discussion group, the leader has his own intentions. Mr. Fan Ning should not and does not need to disobey the leader's instructions, right?"
"Violation?" Fan Ning heard something incomprehensible, "You can just come in and get it. This thing is not mine. Did I stop the officers? Or do you think I am standing here in the way? That doesn't matter.
I'm just ready to go."
"Mr. Fanning." Marquis McAdam spoke loudly, "Everyone is here today. First of all, I want to admit that the 'disaster' matter involves the inheritance of my family and belongs to the internal interests of the Bologna School. Therefore, this is a commission. As long as you lead it
As far as the scope of the containment ritual here is concerned, I promise at least three conditions. One is to provide annual funding of 100,000 pounds to your Turner Art Hall for five consecutive years. The other is that if you have related needs for advancement in the future, the school may use it.
All of the Hidden Knowledge System will be shared with you. In addition, the school will always be your loyal personal friend. You will receive convenience and courtesy from various noble families wherever you go in the empire."
As the president set out conditions one by one, most knowledgeable people in the room were shaken, including several investigators from the Special Patrol Office.
The School of Bologna is a force that represents the noble royal family and aristocratic bloodlines throughout the empire's long history.
It seems that only one of these conditions is an extraordinary resource, but in fact, all three of them mean a huge amount of extraordinary resources, and all these require is to use your strength to pull the wreckage of the "disaster".
Or if Fan Ning chooses to be led to the secret ritual altar arranged in the special patrol hall, he will also receive top honors and rewards.
Their breathing began to quicken, and they even began to put themselves into the role of Fan Ning, and felt extremely envious.
"Dad, aren't you trying to induce or force Mr. Fanning to make a choice?" Roy felt vaguely that something was wrong.
"If I get the 'Calamity', I may be 50% sure that I can break through to the Enforcer." McAdam narrowed his eyes, "Think about what this means to the school. Besides, if he is really like this, the school will use all
Resources will support his development in mystical and artistic careers. He will be protected by both our organizations and the Guidance School, and your futures will be more closely linked."
"We?" Roy opened her eyes wide. She wanted to express some thoughts in her mind, but she immediately shook her head, "No, Mr. Fan Ning will not like this method."
He Meng and Gang's expressions changed when they heard McAdam's words, but before they could speak, Fan Ning walked directly forward.
"What are you thinking about?" Fan Ning smiled.
"It's really interesting. I find it really interesting. Why do you keep talking, no matter what attitude, wording, or characterization, you all assume the premise that I will definitely get the 'disaster'? This random encounter has nothing to do with me.
?Do you think this is a treasure hunt? Or an auction?"
"Lord Marquis, Roy and I have a very close personal relationship. I just want to add a few personal words." Fan Ning stepped on a stone slab and rose up into the sky. "The living will perish. Salvation is hard to find. It's enough to stop seeking knowledge. Think more.
Trust your colleagues who respect you, and think more about the people around you who rely on you.”
"this"
"Fan Ning directs!?"
"etc!"
There were exclamations from the crowd.
However, the next moment, Fan Ning flew directly through a stable boundary somewhere!
"To tell you the truth, I'm in a very bad mood today, so I won't stay with you!"
