Chapter 53 "We are very grateful to you, Shu Mo."

There was a scent similar to roses floating in the air, and it settled in the water, leaving a heavy feeling like it was about to rot.

The black-haired young man was lying on the bed, his hair a little messy. Because of his sleeping position, his fair face was slightly bruised. Even in his dream, he seemed to be slightly frowning because of some worries. The young man was sleeping deeply and seemed extremely quiet while sleeping. The man who had been curled up and sleeping could not curl up for some reason because he was holding a man in his arms.

There are no furnishings in the director's bedroom. Both the walls and the floor are a depressing dark gray, giving people a strong inorganic texture. Living in this kind of environment all year round can make people feel like an emotionless machine. But this kind of solemnity was somewhat diluted by the scene on the bed at this time. On the big bed in the center, the director hugged the person in front of him tightly and buried his head in the other person's arms, as if he was absorbing the energy in this way. Feeling the warmth of Shu Mo's body. He is so tall, older and calmer than Shu Mo, but he restrains the person in front of him when he sleeps, like a snake entwining its prey, imprisoning and coveting the warm body temperature of the prey.

There was even a strange warmth in this scene. The black-haired young man hugged the blue-haired man and fell asleep. The room was quiet. But after a while, the tranquility was broken because Shu Mo woke up. Shu Mo was sleeping in his arms. He felt that his body temperature was getting colder and colder, as if something extremely cold was absorbing his body temperature moment by moment, and he felt like he was being suffocated by a snake. He frowned, as if he felt something extremely cold on his chest. Pressing something, I subconsciously touched it with my fingers, and pulled out something particularly cold. Being stimulated by that touch, my dull brain was completely awakened.

The black-haired young man opened his eyes, revealing a pair of dark green eyes and looked down.

Something kept pressing on him. It felt so uncomfortable. There must be nothing else in his bedroom...

Then Shu Mo was completely stunned.

First, there is a piece of beautiful long gray-blue hair, and then there is skin as white as jade, with a faint gray feeling, which makes people easily think of corpses and sculptures; then down is the other person's back, where the naked body is There are scars on his back, like some kind of tattoo, but if you look closely, you can see that they are scars that appear symmetrically on the back of the director. In this case, Shu Mo can even count the number subconsciously. There are six pairs in total. , but nine of the wounds seemed to be oozing with light blood, and they were hideous and terrifying, as if they had been dug out just now, with an uncomfortable fleshy feeling...

This kind of horrific injuries made people feel sad. Being frightened will make people wonder how the other person can carry out daily life despite such discomfort and still remain calm.

Shu Mo couldn't help but cast his eyes on the other person's wounds, and even subconsciously wanted to reach out. However, this movement suddenly stopped when he realized who the person in front of him was. Shu Mo's eyes widened and his face dropped ashen. He turned his head to look at the face that was still shrinking in his arms. When that beautiful face appeared in front of him, Shu Mo was stunned. The next second, he almost wanted to jump off the building and be reincarnated.

Who will tell him what to do if he wakes up and sleeps with his immediate boss? ! !

Shu Mo almost vomited out a mouthful of blood and stared at the person in front of him, speechless. Other things were no longer important. Shu Mo quickly observed whether there was any suspicious discomfort or abnormality in his body. What was gratifying was that in addition to the pain that was consistent with the recurrence of old injuries in his body, there was no pain in his body. There’s nothing else to crumble about.

fine. Shu Mo wiped his face and was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he suddenly found a...teeth mark on his wrist.

Shu Mo: "..."

He recalled his last memory of last night: after he pulled the scarlet crown off the director's head, he and the director returned to the research institute, ready to clean up the mess.

Then, just as Shu Mo was about to look for the missing Greedy and see if he was in any danger, his vision suddenly went dark. The last scene was of the director looking at him with a pair of silver eyes, and then reaching out to catch him. .

Then, he appeared in the director's room and hugged the man.

His spirit couldn't bear the stimulation and was about to collapse.

He looked at the person in front of him, and finally pushed him away uncontrollably. At the same time, he pulled the quilt over and pressed it on himself. The director's eyes opened in an instant, and he looked at the person in front of him with his bright red single eye, his eyes clear. . It was as if he had never fallen asleep.

The man's eyes were sharp, cold, and revealed a sense of ruthless cruelty. It was as if everything in the world was being looked down upon by him. There was not even a trace of human emotion in his eyes. Shu Mo looked into that eye. Standing, her body froze under his gaze. For a moment, she even thought that the person in front of her was not the director. But in the next second, the director's eyes finally fell on him. After seeing him clearly, the other person His eyes changed slightly, and the empty sense of distance suddenly faded away. The director blinked, and his temperament became lazy.

"Good morning." He said to the surprised Shu Mo, "Did you sleep well?"

The director's words and his appearance deeply stimulated Shu Mo's nerves, and the black-haired young man couldn't help but glare. Looking at him, for a moment, he saw the man with long gray-blue hair looking at him without blinking. He didn't know if it was Shu Mo's imagination, but there was even a faint smile on his lips.

This kind of smile deeply hurt Shu Mo's nerves. He looked at the director and heard the man continue to say: "You did a good job."

"Why am I here?" Shu Mo asked, his eyes getting more and more serious. He became unfriendly, like a black wolf baring its teeth. It was the first time for the director to see him like this, and he found it very interesting. His eyes moved around the lines of the young man's shoulders and neck, as if he was thinking about something. The next second, Shu Mo's body began to burn. There was a raging fire, looking at the person who seemed to be about to explode. The man narrowed his eyes and said, "Before, you fainted after we returned to the research institute."

"I suspected that there was something wrong with your body, so I took you away. I went to the laboratory to check your physical condition, and then took you to my room to rest."

The director's voice sounded very pleasant, with a touch of frivolity. His long hair was scattered when he saw Shu Mo. His expression was still confused, and he didn't make any unnecessary explanations. Instead, he stood up and put on his clothes as usual.

While he was getting dressed, Shu Mo suddenly noticed that his back was smooth and white, as if the hideous injuries he had seen before were just Shu Mo's illusion. He even felt that he had just woken up and had a vision. The director quickly put on his regular clothes. Anyway, the man usually only wore the most ordinary white coat, which was no different from other people.

"These are the clothes prepared for you." The director threw a dark coat to him. Shu Mo took a sharp look at the coat and then at the director: "Where are my previous clothes?"

" Throw it away." The man said casually. He turned and walked to the kitchen: "I'll prepare breakfast for you."

His voice came from a distance. Shu Mo looked at his back and suddenly felt something subtle had changed in his attitude. Changes, or in other words, his performance seems more easy-going to Shu Mo, which is another side outside of work. The other person's personality is elusive. Sometimes he is cold and suspicious, like a fanatical and morbid scientist; sometimes he is lazy like a snake, sleeping quietly in a cave, and only wakes up when he encounters interesting prey. Climbing out while spitting out the letter, he devours the opponent in one bite.

While Shu Mo was putting on his clothes, he suddenly felt an indescribable pain. It was a lesson from heaven and earth. He really didn't want to have so much contact with the other person, but since he came to the laboratory, everything that had happened had come out. His control was as if someone or something was secretly controlling everything. Even if Shu Mo tried to stay away, his fate was still tightly entangled with his boss and greed, just like in the hands of the God of Destiny. Their fates became more and more intertwined, until they finally intertwined with each other, forming a knot that could not be opened.

This premonition made Shu Mo couldn't help but shudder. He quickly remembered the price of truth and decided to ask the other party how to avoid this situation from happening.

While he gritted his teeth and put on his clothes, he was thinking about countermeasures. The director had already served his breakfast. The man was sitting in front of the dining table chewing his food. On the other side was Shu Mo's breakfast. Shu Mo hesitated for a moment before walking over, and then saw the director opening his lips, swallowing the raw fish meat into his mouth and chewing it.

The director's breakfast is a whole plate of sashimi, with no other extra seasonings, it is pure raw food; while Shu Mo's portion is filled with cooked steak and fried eggs, sprinkled with some Shu Mo's milk. The seasonings he had seen before, the edges of the soft-boiled eggs that were cooked perfectly showed a pleasant golden color. Shu Mo took a bite and found a very strange taste.

Beside him was the director who stuffed half of the fish into his mouth and chewed it. The other person's expression looked comfortable and lazy, and it looked more like swallowing than eating. Shu Mo looked at this scene and couldn't eat. After swallowing, he took a bite of the steak, pushed the plate under the gaze of the director, and then said: "Where is the greed?"

The director paused and wiped the corners of his lips with a handkerchief: "You I care about him very much."

"How does it feel to have a dog?"

Shu Mo's expression was not very good, and he even felt that the director would say something like before. However, the man paused and then said: "Don't worry, he is fine."

The director's tone was strangely gentle, even though his attitude towards greed was still not very good: "He is fighting No. 2 Then he went crazy and tore up a lot of pollutants. After destroying half of the research institute, he was led into a trap by the hunters and had a fight with O-12-KL-Moon Witch. "

Shu Mo:...

stay here. The Moon Witch who didn't leave her holding room from the beginning to the end when suddenly disaster struck from the sky:...

"Then, they had a fight, and the Moon Witch was seriously injured, but Greedy also fell into a deep sleep. He was cultivating the nest. Sleeping."

The director rolled the remaining pieces of fish together and chewed them. His one eye blinked with a faint smile on his lips: "He likes you very much, Shu Mo.

" The leader said: "Greed has been looking for you. After the hunters realized this, they disguised themselves as you and let Greed enter the holding room."

Shu Mo: "...Is he okay?"

The young man touched it. Face, I decided to check with Greed later. The director said calmly: "What can happen to him? What you should worry about are the pollutants."

Shu Mo: "You seem to be right."

The director chuckled lightly, and Shu Mo looked at him with an expression like Somewhat surprised, the man looked at him and asked, "What's wrong, showing such an expression?"

Shu Mo put his hands on his knees, feeling a little uncomfortable with the director's current appearance. He even acted a little... friendly, The vague sense of danger disappeared. The director was still the same, but the relationship between them seemed to have undergone subtle changes.

"How is the research institute now?" Shu Mo wanted to change the subject. The director pressed a finger on the side of his head and nodded:

"Do you know why No. 0 escaped?"

Shu Mo said. Mo shook his head to express his confusion. The director's finger suddenly stretched out. Shu Mo was so frightened that he backed away, fearing that the other person would suddenly go crazy again. Then, the finger with clear joints pointed at the plate in front of him: " Eat."

Shu Mo had no appetite. He clasped his hands and said, "It's not good for

your health to skip breakfast." "You're in poor health, Shu Mo." The director crossed his legs and said lazily. "After testing, I found that my body's health report value is 5% lower than the average value of the laboratory. I suffer from mild stomach problems, staying up late, and hypoglycemia..."

The director also wanted to say something else. Shu Mo had a headache, so he used a fork Forked the steak and ate it.

The director said: "Good boy."

Shu Mo looked at him speechlessly. The man stood up and motioned for him to follow. The two of them walked into the laboratory one after another. Only then did Shu Mo realize that behind the laboratory was the director's residence. This guy was really a workaholic. The director sat at the table and opened a document with his authority:

"The hunter who took care of T-98-HG-Stairway to Heaven had contact with an outside church some time ago."

The director patted himself. The chair next to him motioned for Shu Mo to sit over. The black-haired young man sat next to him. Just as he was about to take a look, he felt his side sink. However, the man came over very naturally, clinging to his side and watching with him.

"...Too close, Director." Shu Mo's voice was very soft, worried that the Director would be angry because of such a trivial matter, or be like before, but the man didn't say anything. He glanced at him and let him go. Driving some distance.

Shu Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and an audio and video clip was played in front of him:

"Ainz, does the Beginning Cult you mentioned really exist?"

"Contaminants are really the key to redeeming everything?"

"Do you bear witness? Live those miracles, right? Aaron, you can feel it too, can't you? Those pollutants should not be locked up in a cage, they are not monsters, they are the dreams of hunters, their hopes, you, me, and everyone else. A common future."

"Have you ever heard them calling your name, communicated with them, and been in contact with them? You can also feel their emotions and thoughts, right? Those are the same thoughts as ours, or even beyond ours... "

...But."

"The tower is about to end, and what can save us is these bound pollutants. The Church will tell you the future direction. Come and see with me, I will take you." See something you've never seen before."

The person on the call mentioned a location, and then the director pressed the second button, and the second audio message appeared:

"I, I saw it."

"I even saw it. I can't imagine that it's a real thing."

"This is a miracle... This is..."

"Aaron, join us"

"Ha... hahaha..."

"Come and hear our plan. When the end comes, you will be the first group of people to be saved."

The director pressed the third audio clip again, and this time a video appeared. The hunter in the picture walked into the containment room and then put the barrel in the barrel. The feed was overthrown with one kick, and then actively walked towards T-98-HG-Stairway to Heaven.

"Yes, the people in the trial are all madmen. Everyone is crazy. They are all living lies."

"The gods in the tower do not exist at all. It is because of that thing, because of them, that I You are all going crazy to live in this bullshit world, only I... I am awake, and I will show you the real world!"

The hunter trembled as he laughed wildly in the room, then covered his face and cried. , and after a while, he walked step by step towards the Stairway to Heaven, then stretched out his hand and gouged out the other person's eyes.

In the eyeball he held in his hand, a staircase leading to the kingdom of heaven loomed. The hunter's fingertips were full of blood. He raised the eyeball in his hand, as if he was holding up his own salvation.

"If No. 0 is really God, then let Him end all this completely!"

The video was disconnected at this time, and the picture was pitch black. Just when Shu Mo thought it was over, in the dark picture, But there was a piercing siren and the sound of a radio.

He slowly raised his body and leaned on the seat. The director next to him took out a document. Shu Mo looked at the sect document named [Beijing Sect] in his hand and frowned deeper and deeper.

"They...worship pollutants?" Shu Mo frowned: "They plan to release all the pollutants in the laboratory and then destroy the tower?"

This kind of thinking and their motives almost made Shu Mo's brain explode. , but the director on the side had no expression on his face. He said: "I think what they did is very interesting."

Shu Mo instantly turned his head to look at the director. The man crossed his legs and looked lightly: "Hunters and civilians have always been Living in fear that their lives may be taken away at any time, no matter how hard they try to clean up the pollutants, monsters still appear in a steady stream."

The director took out another document and flipped through it: "In the dozens. Years ago, the sixth floor had been completely destroyed, and it had basically become the home of pollutants. However, when faced with the calls for help from residents on the sixth floor, the Tribunal's response was to completely blow up the central elevator leading to the sixth floor. The passage was blocked and the sixth floor was completely locked, so that the pollutants on the sixth floor could not pass through the sea of ​​clouds and reach the upper floors. "

"And the people on the fifth floor were almost cleaned up more than ten years ago, so the fifth floor was almost wiped out. The hunters created a sect that worships pollutants." The director looked at the expressionless Shu Mo and continued: "But for some reason, the pollutants on the fifth floor also disappeared overnight, but the previous ones did not. There are still some remnants of the sect. G-98-Aaron was once a hunter on the fifth floor. After he came to the upper level, he was still involved with his former friends, and his friends took him to join the sect. "

Director General . He threw the document on the table and looked at Shu Mo: "Do you have anything to ask?"

These things are secrets that only the top executives on the second floor know, and they are also the most invisible secrets of the tower. Shu Mo's expression changed for a while, and finally he asked, "So, how are the people on the sixth floor doing now?"

"They were abandoned decades ago," the director said.

His meaning was self-evident. Shu Mo didn't understand. How could the trial court conceal such a big matter?

"It's very simple, Shu Mo." The director waved to him. Shu Mo thought he had something to say, but the man held his face and suddenly came closer. Shu Mo was startled.

"Have you ever left the fourth floor before?" The director's cold breath blew on his face: "People are rational and ignorant at the same time. They are at the mercy of others and are content with the status quo. As long as the environment around them If nothing goes wrong, you will live in that circle for the rest of your life.

"So what if the sixth floor has been abandoned?" Shu Mo put his hand on the chair and looked at the director with one eye, filled with confusion. Red: "Only people on the sixth floor will want to go to the upper floor, while people on the middle floor will not go to the lower floor."

"As long as the people in the trial block this news, no one will find out about it."

So. He looked at Shu Mo for a long time and suddenly wanted to come forward and kiss him. But the black-haired young man pursed his lips in a gesture of resistance. The director looked at the tense face of the person in front of him. After a moment of silence, he finally did not force the person.

"But Aaron was once a hunter on the fifth floor." The director said, and Shu Mo already knew what he meant. He looked at the screen, at the rearranged video tapes, and the hunter standing there. It looked ridiculous and His crazy behavior suddenly found an explanation at this moment: he was just afraid.

"Shu Mo." The man suddenly opened his mouth and said, "I want to kiss you."

Shu Mo, who was still immersed in some kind of thinking, thinking about everything that happened on the fifth floor, felt as if his butt was stabbed when he heard this. He almost jumped up from the chair. The director raised his face and held him down. Under the light, there seemed to be a flow of color in the man's blood eyes. Looking at the face in front of him, a memory brought a slightly cold feeling. The wind suddenly blew on Shu Mo's face. He thought of the man's face under the moonlight, his cool hair, his silver eyes, and what he could see flying in the air when he raised his face. The moon is so close.

It seemed to be the brightest moon he had ever seen. Because the dirt and blood had been removed, it looked particularly bright.

And at that moment, the director looked at him. His long hair was spread out, and his blue hair had a luminous texture under the moonlight. For a moment, he even looked like...

Shu Mo turned back When he looked up, the director seemed to be approaching him, almost kissing him. Shu Mo took a step back in an instant. He looked at the person sitting there in front of him, narrowing his eyes at him, and refused in a stumbling manner:

"I, there is something I want to tell you."

Looking at the director's expression, Shu Mo continued: "I don't like to be in contact with people, and I don't like... to be kissed by others."

The director looked at him, and the expression on his face didn't seem to be displeased: "But you said... you like me ."

Shu Mo looked at him, his expression suddenly became serious.

[Memory playback:

In the laboratory, the man holding the knife was tied to the cross and unable to struggle.

Director: You like me?

Shu Mo: (with a knife pressed against his chest) I like you.

The memory ends. 】

Shu Mo's expression gradually became unkind, but he did not dare to speak directly because he was afraid of the person in front of him. The director's voice was lower, like a cello playing the strings in the room: "And, last night, you wanted to take the initiative to kiss me." Am I not?"

Shu Mo's eyes twitched: "I just want to save you."

The director held his chin with his fingers and chuckled: "Then I should thank you, Shu Mo."

"You do it. Very good."

Shu Mo was a little stunned. After a moment, he realized that the director seemed to be really praising him. The young man couldn't believe it. The person in front of him had changed his temper?

Moreover, he only remembered at this time, what happened to the Scarlet Crown?

Seemingly seeing Shu Mo's doubts, the director explained: "The escape of No. 0 caused a large amount of pollutants to escape from the laboratory. Afterwards, it took the hunters some time to contain them again, but more importantly "It's because of you."

Shu Mo looked at him and heard the director continue: "Originally, there should have been more casualties in the laboratory, but you took action and calmed down all the pollutants."

"The hunters are very grateful. You." The director narrowed his eyes: "They all want to thank you."

Then, after the situation stabilized, the hunters discovered that Shu Mo had disappeared. It took a lot of effort for the director to find the black-haired young man huddled in the ruins, protected by two layers of barriers.

Shu Mo seemed to be sleeping in a giant cocoon, with a faint white light emitting from his body. One layer came from himself, and the other layer contained Xi's breath. Two layers of barriers, one black and one white, protected him firmly. , also became a cage that imprisoned him.

The director didn't think it was a good thing for him to continue sleeping. He wanted to take Shu Mo away, but found that Kari could penetrate the white barrier, but could not break through the protection set by Xi; and the scarlet crown in his hand could penetrate the darkness. Although the barrier was strong, it could not shake the white light radiating from Shu Mo's body.

So the director put on the scarlet crown.

He knew what this meant, and he also knew that the Scarlet Crown had been trying to bewitch him. The director could ensure that he would not be completely controlled and become a puppet of the Scarlet Crown, but at the same time, he did not know what would happen if he actually wore it.

But he did it anyway.

The director himself didn't realize what he would do. He broke through the barrier on Shu Mo's body. Then, the man with the blood-red crown looked at the sleeping young man in front of him. He stretched out his hand to pick him up and flapped his dark wings. Get up, the first thought of all those who get the crown after wearing it is to create a bloody world.

The director thought so too. He even thought about letting Shu Mo go create a new world with him. The man felt very happy. Looking at the moon in front of him that was gradually dyed with blood, waiting for Shu Mo to wake up, he even thought You can suppress the impulse in your heart, just to wait for Shu Mo to wake up and leave the laboratory with him.

Then Shu Mo woke up and slapped his face away.

The director's eyes flashed slightly, and Shu Mo suddenly felt a chill behind him. He glanced at the person in front of him, and seemed to be planning to leave the room quietly before the director noticed, but the man raised his face and looked at him. The director did not tell him about saving Shu Mo, but said: "Where do you want to go?"

"I want to see how the institute is doing now."

The director raised his head and glanced at him and said: " Go."

Shu Mo was granted amnesty and left quickly without looking back. Before he left, the director seemed to suddenly remember something and stopped him.

"I forgot to tell you something."

Shu Mo: "?"

The man with long gray-blue hair held his chin and said, "You slept for three days after rescuing the research institute."

Shu Mo: " ...?"

Director: "Everyone wants to see you and thank you, Shu Mo."

With a faint sense of foreboding, Shu Mo slowly opened the door and walked out of the director's laboratory. The laboratory appeared to be extremely clean and looked not much different from before the accident. There are still the same number of people in the laboratory as before, but there are some new faces.

Shu Mo was walking on the road and thought, "It doesn't seem to be okay?"

Then, when he walked all the way to his office, Ouya, who was missing an arm, suddenly rushed out from the corner. Then, everyone gathered around him, and Shu Mo's alarm bell jumped, but at this time it was too late to escape. .

As if he was desperate, Shu Mo was surrounded by a group of people. They looked at him with a strange look that Shu Mo had never seen before. Then, a group of people surrounded him. Ouya stood in front of him and said :

"You are still alive, Shu Mo."

Shu Mo: "?"

"We are very worried about you -" They all gathered around Shu Mo and said, "The director said that you saved us."

Shu Mo. The ominous premonition in Mo's heart became stronger. He managed to calm down and continued, "What did the director say?"

"He said that when No. 0 escaped, you fell from the sky, then stepped on white light and floated in the air, suppressing All contaminants, save the laboratory from danger."

Shu Mo: "?"

Ouya

said, of course, his words can only cause extremely serious damage to Shu Mo. Psychological blow: "He also said that you suppressed the Scarlet Crown and helped him restore the laboratory to its original state."

"Actually, we can't remember what happened before." Another experimenter scratched his head: " We only remember that a white light suddenly appeared, and then... we fell to the ground and didn't remember anything."

"But I remember that you saved me." Ouya came forward and winked at him: "Brother, You are very good."

"I...I..." Shu Mo had never seen such a scene before. He even seemed a little at a loss. A group of people surrounded him, and then they suddenly came forward and faced him. Said: "Thank you, you are such a good person, are you Superman, Shu Mo!"

"I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do -"

Shu Mo fled from left to right while being chased by a group of people, and ran for a long time before finally finally Avoid their pursuit. In the chaos, Shu Mo remembered to take away the notebook on the table. He didn't expect that the price of truth was still there. Now the young man could only hide in the corner of the laboratory and read books silently. Even his table was filled with gifts. .

"Did I save the laboratory?" Shu Mo murmured to himself: "What..."

He was still holding a bouquet of flowers in his arms. The young man had never encountered such a situation. He was still a little embarrassed at this time, but But he didn't know what to say, and was even a little at a loss. Shu Mo's lips curled up involuntarily. He opened the book "The Price of Truth" and saw a brand new sentence revealed above:

"Congratulations."

You gain the snake's trust.

Snakes are cunning, suspicious, neurotic, lazy and deadly cold-blooded creatures.

He only pays attention to interesting prey, and devours anything he likes. He never trusts anyone, but when he trusts something, you will gain his full trust.

So, you are free to betray him and take advantage of his trust. 】

The price of truth is so instructive.

[But please be careful, you only have one chance. Once you choose to betray him, he will swallow you whole. ]

Shu Mo looked at the pages in his hand and fell silent.

The young man opened the book, glanced at it, and then closed it again.

The words in the book are still the same.

Shu Mo's eyes twitched. He picked up his notebook and slowly walked to the sink nearby. Then, he felt his fingertips being licked.

"I advise you not to talk nonsense." Shu Mo reprimanded: "Tell me something useful."

There was no response from The Price of Truth. Shu Mo took a deep breath and reopened the book. The snake trust theory on it was still there. Nothing changed. He was about to sink the thing into the water, when he suddenly discovered that new writing appeared behind the page.

[Warning: The crisis has passed, and the laboratory will soon welcome new visitors.

You need to make the right decisions and choose to do the right thing under the right circumstances. ]

On the fourth floor, Xi stood in front of the ancestor, looking at the pollutants in front of him.

The giant deer was nailed to the ground with a long knife, and its body was cut evenly. There was not even any dirt on Xi's body. He seemed to be doing a very small thing:

"Surrender, or die."

The vague voice of the ancestor came, like the voice of thousands of people mixed together: "Rizhu... is not worthy..."

" Do you want to take revenge on the Tribunal?" Xi continued. The ancestor's body paused, and then let out a roar. Xi was unmoved and continued: "The reason why you were born was not to take revenge on the Tribunal, to take revenge on them. "

You, no."

Xi raised his hand, and the long knife was raised again, and then cut the ancestor in half. It was almost dead. If it continued like this, it would really be crushed into powder by the person in front of it. , but the pillars of the tower are all their enemies, no matter who they are.

"The saint will be on my side." Xi said softly. His words made the ancestor suddenly raise his eyes and look at him. After a moment, a smaller ancestor slowly crawled out of the giant deer's body. They did not hide their hatred for Xi, but at the same time, Xi's words made them hesitate.

"Can't believe him!"

"But this is the order of the Saint..."

"He is deceiving us!"

"But the Saint has his breath..."

The noisy quarrel became a mess, and Xi looked down at the ancestor. , watching the monster in front of him hesitate in front of him, finally, the ancestor chose to lower his head to him: "If you can really prove this, then I will follow the will of the saint."

"He will be on my side." Xi lowered his eyes and stretched out his hand: "Give me the origin of Fei Shi."

The ancestor was silent. After a moment, its eyes widened and burst open, hiding in them. The origin of the world slowly floated out, like a bright star, and then, Xi stretched out his hand to seal it.

"...Remember what you said."

Xi watched the ancestor slowly dissipate, disappear in front of him, and get into his shadow. The darkness that shrouded the entire forest finally faded away at this moment. Xi walked out of the forest. For some reason, his shadow looked darker.

"Lord Xi." Yu Xin stepped forward and found to his surprise that the aura of the ancestor had disappeared. Xi arrived in person, so it was a matter of course that the ancestor was removed by Xi, or was the other party not killed?

But Yu Xin didn't intend to think about it anymore. She was just a part-time worker. The others said nothing. Xi looked at her and put away the box in her hand: "Open the passage to the second floor."

"Yes, sir." Yu Xin agreed without hesitation and started to act without asking. Any doubt, just follow orders. Nozomi raised her face and looked up at the sky, as if looking through something above her head at a certain direction on the extremely distant second floor.

"I'm going to...the research institute."

Xi's voice made Yu Xin pause. That was where Ri Zhu 2 was. But Xi didn't say anything after that. He looked at the passage that opened in front of him and slowly walked into it. The next second, the man's body was completely swallowed by the passage and disappeared in front of everyone.
