Mo Ye stood at the entrance of the gate and didn't move, the door behind her closed automatically as she walked in, and the old door creaked and decayed as it closed.

Mo Ye closed his eyes, his slightly sour and swollen eyes were rested for a moment, the shadows around his eyes intensified, the skin that was already too white showed an unhealthy pale and no blood at this moment, his throat was dry, his head was splitting, his limbs, including every finger, were filled with a feeling of soreness and unbearable swelling, and his muscles seemed to be scorched by a small fire, and the pain continued slowly.

This fatigue is compounded by a high degree of mental concentration and a severe lack of sleep.

The repetition of time nodes or the so-called suspension does not mean that the body can last forever, and it will not be tired or aged, which Mo Ye has already experienced.

Very tired, if there is a comfortable and warm big bed in front of him at this moment, Mo Ye is not sure if he will climb up and sleep first regardless of 3721.

This kind of fatigue did not appear suddenly, but accumulated over a long period of time, Mo Ye's body has not been completely rested since she entered the Peters Rubik's Cube, and she doesn't even know how long she has been in the Peters Rubik's Cube.

Sometimes it feels like time is fast, sometimes it feels like time is slow to stand still, and the city of Peters, where the clock doesn't work properly, messes up the time perception of the night.

For example, at this moment, Mo Ye opened her eyes and saw a figure coming from the darkness not far away, and she couldn't even determine how long it was for her to close her eyes, whether it was a second or a minute, maybe shorter or longer.

The lack of accurate perception of time is a frustrating and frustrating thing.

If Mo Ye's mood can be expressed in the form of a weather forecast, Xiao Qi will mark his master with a cloudy turn at this time, which makes it feel very bad.

Mo Ye raised his hand to cover his mouth and yawned, his eyes narrowed lazily, and there were always a few stubborn hairs on his head that wanted to go to heaven.

The man got closer and closer, it was the chief deacon of the Inspectorate Committee in Peters City, the smirking pseudo-young man who didn't smile.

Every step is stepping on the firelight, and the faint flame under your feet blooms like a flower, and the fire is also very enthusiastic.

Mo Ye thought about it and yawned again, there was a buzzing sound in his head, and the muscle aches hurt a little more when he saw the firelight.

The smirkling deacon was followed by six people, all of whom were saints and deacons of Peters City.

"Real people in battle?"

The smirking deacon looked down at Mo Ye and sighed, "It's a pity that you have finally come to this point, you are really a trouble beyond my expectations." ”

There was no special tone, and there was no change in expression, but Mo Ye sensed a strong dissatisfaction and strong hatred from this sentence.

At the mention of the unexpected trouble, the flames at the deacon's feet heated up several degrees, and the sputtering sparks seemed to be a demonstration or an expression of contempt.

Such a strong hatred is inexplicable, and Mo Ye looked dazed and innocent, "I thought your mission was to maintain the normal operation of Peters City, and not to harm the aliens who held the star keys. ”

"You don't get the approval of the star key, who do you think you are!" Someone shouted uncontrollably, and refuted Mo Ye with contempt and anger, "You're just a person who doesn't know anything about bad luck." ”

The deacon didn't pay much attention to what Mo Ye said later, and her attention was pulled away when she heard the words 'Star Key Approval'.

"How do you get the approval of the Star Key?" Mo Ye said, shaking his wrist with the rune slate bracelet.

If you ask, can you not just shake your hands casually, deliberately show off, and deliberately demonstrate?

Hey, the mental power fluctuated violently, and the resentful eyes almost turned into eye knives and shot towards Mo Ye.

His Excellency the Mage raised his eyebrows slightly, and withdrew his shaking hand, probably understanding that he was stimulating the other party, "So you have given up insisting?"

The Lord Deacon's purpose was not just to keep Peters City running, and if it were, he would not have been indifferent when the Black Rain had invaded the block complex and forced to abandon a large number of citizens.

Even the place where the citizens go to eat breakfast every day needs to ensure that nothing goes wrong, and the inspection committee does not let go of any mistakes and omissions in details, but directly chooses to give up the city's citizens who still have the possibility of saving, which is not in line with the logic of the inspection committee.

And when things go wrong, there must be demons, what is the purpose of the chief deacon?

Cadiz's appeal can be understood by Mo Ye, Deacon Deacon's pursuit Mo Ye can also be understood, and even the ambition of the deacon who has been chasing her can be seen clearly, but what about the chief deacon?

His motives and purpose were like a piece of frosted glass in Mo Ye's eyes, and no matter how he wiped it, he could only see a faint shadow behind the frosted glass.

There must be some special reason for this person to behave unusually.

"There is no inevitable conflict of interest between us, and win-win cooperation is achievable, but you are bent on getting rid of me, why?" Mo Ye looked at the smirkling deacon and asked seriously, "What is your motive and purpose?"

Mo Ye didn't wait for the smirk of the chief deacon to speak before he spoke, and then said, "If I'm not mistaken, to get the approval of the star key, you need to undergo a series of tests, and the so-called recognition is actually to raise the authority level, you don't want me to upgrade the authority level?"

Mo Ye nodded, "Your mental power fluctuations tell me that my guess is correct. ”

"Heh, you're the most alien I've ever seen. ”

Mo Ye's eyebrows were slightly raised, and he pursed his lips, he didn't expect that he would be able to get this kind of comment in his lifetime.

"Master, he said you talk a lot!" Although Xiao Qi also felt that his master was talking a little more than usual at the moment, it was obviously cloudy and overcast, and there must be a reason for being so interested.

"Actually, I can't sense your mental power fluctuations. Mo Ye said bluntly and frankly.

What are you playing with the crowd "......"!

"But now I'm sure my speculation is correct, you don't want me to increase my authority, but why, I still can't figure out your motives and purposes, can you tell me?"

Mo Ye looked tired and could fall asleep at any time as she spoke, her tone did not fluctuate, and she didn't sound the slightest curiosity, as if she didn't care if the chief deacon said it or not, so why ask?

Mo Ye's question was her question, and it was the question of the other members of the Peters City Inspectorate Committee, whether they knew some inside story or didn't know anything, whether it was an investigator or a deacon or an ordinary resident, everyone had some doubts in their hearts.

Chief Deacon, what kind of heart do you have in peace?

No one really dared to question it.

"Hehe, aliens, you're sowing discord, don't you think it's too late?"

Mo Ye rubbed her sour eyes, her gaze removed from the firelight, the scorching heat of the jumping sparks made her eyes sore and her head hurt even more.

Standing in mid-air with a spark, even at this moment, he is unwilling to make changes, such a pompous face is really not a good match for that smiling face.

Mo Ye's thoughts paused for a moment, and the little man who was rolling around with the thread in his mind suddenly stood up, everything has a cause and effect, and there is a reason why the chief deacon stepped on the spark so much.

Mo Ye couldn't figure out this matter, but there was one thing she had already received from Xiao Qi's exact answer, "Master, after the test, the people in front of me can be determined to be human beings except for the two from the left, the first from the right, and the first from the right. After Xiao Qi finished speaking, he felt that this answer was not rigorous, so he added: "But scanning in Peters City will also get the same result." ”

Death was the only way to test if they were flesh and blood, at least the only way Moya knew.

It's really helpless.

Mo Ye's gaze had been locked on the head deacon, and the spiritual power threads had already entered the different warehouse areas along the surrounding spatial nodes to check the dormant pods.

This time, Mo Ye didn't dare to approach again, these dormant pods have defense devices for mental power exploration, unless Mo Ye's purpose is to destroy directly, otherwise simple exploration will only alarm the mental power defense network, and it is Mo Ye himself who suffers.

"You're mentally injured. ”

Without the need for mental power induction, Mo Ye could completely hear and see the unconcealed schadenfreude under the chief deacon's firm tone at this moment.

Mo Ye knew that the chief deacon was stalling for time, and the chief deacon also knew that Mo Ye was stalling for time, and everyone was running out of time.

It's just that none of them knows what the motives and purposes of the other party are, and they all rely on trivial information to speculate.

"You didn't just erase me at this time, but listened to me talk nonsense, what are you waiting for?"

"What about you, what are you waiting for?"

Wait for the opportunity, wait for the definite answer", she needs to know if the people lying in the dormant pods are people, and if so, why are they lying here en masse.

”

"Master, after the detection, the latest feedback shows that there are indeed humans lying in the sleeping pods currently spot-checked, of different ages and genders. ”

Mo Ye looked at the chief deacon, "The people lying here are all the citizens of Peters City. Mo Ye didn't express any questioning tone, she was already sure in her heart, even if the other party denied it at the moment, she wouldn't believe it.

The chief deacon smiled again, "You guessed it. ”

The deacon's eyes always followed the movement of Mo Ye's wrist, and his thirst for the star key was never hidden.

"It's too late to hand it over, and I can offer you the opportunity to stay in Peters City. ”

Mo Ye didn't respond to the deacon's proposal, she kept thinking about why these people were lying in the hibernation pod, so were those in Peters City fake?

No, it's also true, it's just an aggregate of energy.

These dormant pods are similar to the starnet link pods, and if you think of Peters City as a network, Moye can probably understand it.

But Peters City is real, and so are those people, their brains are a little messy, and after the speculation is suddenly confirmed, they find that their brains are not enough, and a groggy feeling of exhaustion hits them for a while, and their heads hurt.

There was no superfluous thought when it was just speculation, but after the guess was confirmed, I had to sigh, and at the same time there was a trace of fear in my heart.

The sense of crisis follows me like a shadow, jumping from the soles of my feet to the stubborn curls fluttering above my head.

The fear of the power of the unknown, the awe of the unknown knowledge, and the incomprehension of the deeds of the chief deacon.

Mo Ye can be sure that the other party is stalling for time, and the purpose of procrastination is nothing more than to stop her, but how to achieve it?

No, mistaken!

Suddenly realized that she had overestimated her importance.

This is not the Covenant, not the Worm Domain, not Burgess.

Maybe in the era when advanced civilization still existed, her level was just okay.

What the other party wants is the star key, and what is feared is also the star key.

The rune tablet is the key.

Mo Ye procrastinated because she knew too little and needed to know more.

"The people of Peters are lying in the sleep pod, so what are the ones in Peters?"

Mo Ye already had the answer in his heart, but he still hoped to confirm it again.

"Of course they are. The presiding deacon still smiled, "You still have a chance, you can choose to live your life any way, you can go into eternity, you just need to hand over what you don't have." ”

Xiao Qi suddenly became excited at this moment, and snapped his fingers, "Master, I have found the main control system of Peters City." ”

"It's the brain, it's the brain. Xiao Qi did not see the joy of his kind, but immediately entered a state of high alert and alert, "Master, it is on the chief deacon." ”

Xiao Qi's words suddenly reminded Mo Ye, she slightly tilted her head and looked up, staring at the fake smiling face of the chief deacon, "Why do you want to carry the City Brain with you?"

This sentence made the deacon's expression, which had been smirking and waiting for him to appear at the expected end, change slightly.

The mental power fluctuations that leaked at that moment had been captured by her.

Seeming to be right, Mo Ye once again tentatively asked, "Your motives and purposes are closely related to the control of the brain in Peters City. ”

The people behind the chief deacon stepped forward in unison, and the coercion from several people locked Mo Ye.

He couldn't even afford to procrastinate, which meant that Mo Ye had guessed right, and the brains of Peters City were more important to the chief deacon than the citizens of Peters City, and even more important than Peters City.

The Zhi Brain is not such a rare device for advanced civilizations, but he is willing to give everything for it, at any cost.

"How do you know?" the chief deacon didn't speak, and tension rose sharply.

"You also have a brain. "Chief Deacon

Xiao Qi was still in shock, he should have found out a long time ago.

Xiao Qi always thought that the main control system of Peters City would be a higher-level or a special control system similar to the rune slate, but he really didn't expect it to be a smart brain, and it looked like a half-crippled smart brain.

"Master, it seems that the core device of the light brain of the main control system of Peters City has been severely damaged and has not yet fully recovered. ”

This makes the purpose of the chief deacon even more ambiguous, what exactly he wants to do.

Could it be that you can still look at your own brain?

These hibernation pods were filled with everyone in Peters City, including Cadiz and Dicana, who were not really dead, but in the hibernation pods.

Mo Ye looked up suddenly, and suddenly realized why the chief deacon had shown up in person to delay time.

"Who or what are you looking for?"
