vs 243 The Most High Star 27
"How...... What's going on......"
Amber struggled to get up from the ground. Her body shimmered with tiny magical sheen, shifting between the real and the void. She wasn't hurt as much as she could have seen since she wasn't physically corporeal, but the blow nearly deprived her of mobility.
"Dean......" She looked up, the void body did not take normal physical damage, however, the aftermath of the magical impact alone was not a minor injury. Before her vision blurred, she could clearly see the old woman's half-biological, half-machine, creepy face. It must be said that when the old woman deliberately concealed the half of her mechanical head, revealing only the half of her human face, her expression was distinguishable. Joys, sorrows, and even more can be seen. But when she revealed her whole true face, her expression was indistinguishable. Or that people's attention will subconsciously focus on the mechanical part of her, and ignore the part that is still flesh and blood.
Half-mechanical faces, cold and hideous.
Actually...... It's actually ...... Amber suddenly felt a pang of despair. She saw a trajectory from Lu Wu's fate, and if she followed that trajectory and cleared unnecessary obstacles, she would be able to meet the dean here.
Named the Supreme Star, Nian Gao Dexun, has the authority of the seventh seat of the Archon, is responsible for the cultivation of the next generation of the entire Huiyue camp, and is also known as the strongest first person in the Huiyue camp. If there is the protection of the dean, then the conspiracy and conspiracy encountered before should be dismantled in an instant.
Although I don't know if I will be able to catch the real conspirator behind the scenes, it will definitely be no problem to get my body back and restore myself to my best condition. But......
Could it be ...... Is it the Dean himself?Amber suddenly flashed through her confused mind. Then, the thought quickly became real.
That's right...... Who but her could do such a thing in a tightly guarded academy. No matter how tightly defended it is, if the dean himself takes action...... No, only the dean himself will make all defensive measures meaningless and not attract any attention from the outside world.
She couldn't help but chuckle as her body began to blur more and more.
β¦β¦
The old woman stood there motionless for a long time.
Her gaze was no longer on Amber, but at the end of the passage. The lighting here was sensory, so there was a white, soft light in the small section around her, but at the far end it was as dark as substance.
Something is coming. A normal human can't hear that sound with her ears, but she can feel it easily. Something dangerous was rapidly approaching along the passage of the metal wall.
In the air, the remnants of magic flowed.
The thing that came close slowly approached. Then, in her sight, a cloud of darkness detached from her surroundings. If you look closely, you'll see that it's a black beast.
Bai Sensen's teeth, like the "darkness" itself, could not see a single reflective fur, and there were eyes like red-hot coals, the whole thing was like a creature that would only appear in a nightmare.
The old woman's wary expression narrowed a little.
"What...... It turned out to be the Mentor ......" The black beast's mouth suddenly spat out human language. "Hey...... Why don't you go to the command center for the completion ceremony, what are you doing here?"
"Attending the completion ceremony?" the old woman smiled genuinely this time. With a slight tug of her hand, she put a hood on herself once more, covering the half of her head. "Ah, I wanted to, too, but I didn't get an invitation to participate. β
Behind the black beast, someone is slowly walking out of the darkness, it is the butterfly dream who rushed over.
"Dead old woman, through which hole did you sneak in, and scared people to death...... old woman said unhurriedly. "I thought you would say that. β
"What's the ......" Diemeng reluctantly smiled. Sure enough, calamity cannot be avoided? But what is going on?"I can't be happy to see my mentor......
That being said, but the two people were about ten steps apart, but they were facing each other. The fool could see that both men were wary of each other, and in fact, even the blue-white glow of the old woman's cloak still wandered.
After a short while, the light on the old woman's body finally dimmed. "I see!" she chuckled. "It's me who is too sensitive. She turned to face Amber, who was lying unconscious on the ground. "To be honest, I don't even understand what's going on?"
Now, anyone can see the peculiarity of amber. Her body is half virtual and half real at the moment, let's say it doesn't exist, her body is really lying on the ground, let's say it exists, she is translucent, it's more like a projection or made of glass at the moment.
"Amber?" Butterfly Dream recognized Amber as well. In her impression, Amber should be an ordinary, even a little shy girl, who is usually with Lu Wu...... She wasn't very impressed with Amber, except that the girl seemed to be a bit avoidant of others. However, considering the failure and retreat of the Banshee Gate before, it is normal to say that I saw some tragic scenes and was mentally stimulated.
But this is clearly not the case now. This state...... Amber was a warlock, but she was sure that the two had not met once or twice, but she had never felt the scars of magic on Amber.
And why is she here? And in the form of a spirit body, and where is her entity in the case of a spirit body?
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through her mind. Because she suddenly thought of the answer...... The original answer she had come to the Banshee Gate to seek. Yes, the spirit body is not an entity, it can be transformed at will. In other words, as long as additional energy is consumed, the warlock in the spirit state can freely change shapesβeven more than just appearance.
Is it Amber disguised as herself?
No...... Maybe there is no need for camouflage at all. It only takes a little misdirection to misidentify someone. After all, under the spirit body, the appearance is not credible.
"That's right, it's amber. The old woman picked up Amber's half-empty body from the ground. She looked at the bewildered imposter female scholar. "Your junior, two grades below you...... First Lawyer!"
"First Lawyer?!...... She...... What's going on?"
"Oh, my dear student, though you are my best student, this is a really silly question. The old woman said. "I just misunderstood by accident, and I accidentally injured her. β
Butterfly Dream was completely confused, but she suddenly shivered coldly, and some kind of foreboding enveloped her. Yes, none of this is the point...... Maybe it was the point in the past, but now it's time to put it aside. After all, other issues can be put aside than personal safety, right?
Now the problem is, she's met the old woman here!
Who could have guessed that the old woman had come out of a corner? If I knew it was an old woman, she would definitely not have come. Are you still afraid that the old woman will wreak havoc here......? I guess I can't run away anymore.
"Mentor, what are you doing here?"
"Of course, as a guest, I came here to celebrate the completion of the repair. β
A second-hand floating fortress...... For others, it's worth holding a completion ceremony to celebrate, what is it to you? No, it should be said that only low-level people like Lu Wu would celebrate this kind of thing. The celebration alone speaks volumes about where he stands, his vision and his insight.
"Are you here to see Lu Wu?"
"See him? Oh no, I've already met him at the base camp. The old woman really laughed this time. "His origin must be a bit peculiar, but it is not necessary to say that I went out of my way to meet him. β
"So yes...... Red?"
"Is that the one you spoke of being guarded by a powerful force?" said the old woman. "I haven't met him yet, but I'm not here for him. She smiled. "Although the origin is unknown, it is worth investigating...... But wouldn't it be enough to leave this kind of thing to the security services? Why bother with me, an old woman, going to investigate?"
She took a step to move forward, but Butterfly Dream indicated with a distinct physical movement that she had no intention of giving way.
"Mentor, I don't want to question you, but it's all here, even if it's a secret, I can let me know. Why are you here?"
"Actually, it's nothing...... Maybe it's just because I want to meet a student I haven't seen in a long time. Perhaps, just as an old woman's whim, as a walk...... It's the only floating fortress here, right? I'm here to see how it's doing. β
The old woman's shameless answer finally made Diemeng unable to hold back. If you want to see the floating fortress, there are a hundred or a thousand in the back, you can see it! And it can be a special version, not the mass-produced version under your feet. But before she could erupt, the old woman raised a hand.
"Well, no kidding. The old woman said in a slow voice. "You're right, I'm here with a mission, a very, very important mission. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is related to the future of the next 100 years. β
