Chapter 124: The Revenant of the Underworld and the Eternal Traveler (Part 3)
This lab is so big that it's hard to see the wall at the other end. Even so, it doesn't look wide at all. The room was filled with all kinds of strange instruments, from the floor to the walls to the ceiling, and in the end, not even an inch of space remained.
The silver and white metal casing, the red and blue wiring, and the faint green light spilled out of the display. Whether it is the effect of these instruments, or the meaning of the symbols and patterns they display, Yumu is completely incomprehensible. But at least one thing, the faint green light from the sheer number of instruments lit up the unlit lab and kept it from going dark. At this point alone, Youmeng still has a positive attitude towards the existence value of these instruments that she doesn't understand.
Otherwise, she'd cut them all down with a single sword, along with the alien female doctor.
"Why?"
Youmeng raised the Louguan sword, and the sword was aimed at Bayi Yonglin.
"What, why?" Yonglin asked with a smile.
"Why betrayal?"
"Betrayal?"
The Moon Sage tilted his neck and pondered for a moment, then said calmly:
"If some of my actions have betrayed you, then I apologize to you. But there's one thing wrong in your statement, and I think I'm obligated to correct it for you. ”
"The word 'betrayal' means 'an act of betraying a friend, a loved one, a partner'. And you and 'we' have never been friends, relatives, or partners with even the slightest share of common interests. I think you're getting so excited about something wrong. Calm down for a moment, how?"
"You ......"
Youmeng's voice was trembling, and her expression was gradually distorting, and it was obvious that she could not calm down. It's better to say that Yonglin's rational remarks couldn't be more rational, but it completely aroused the anger in her heart. That maybe, that's exactly what Yonglin intended.
"Okay, Youmu. ”
Yuyuko of Xixing Temple beside him forcibly pressed down Youmeng's knife-wielding arm, and then took a step forward and blocked in front of Youmeng.
"I don't think there's any need for us to exchange pleasantries. ”
She said, rarely, with a slightly serious look on her face.
That's nature, the eternals, and the spirits of the underworld, if there's anything in common...... That is, they all live on this planet "currently", mind you, only "for now".
"So, I'll cut it short. "Where is this place, how do we go back?"
"This is a large-scale experimental facility located at a depth of 500 meters underground in the Eternal Pavilion, designed for those living experiments that 'cannot see the light'. Yonglin replied, "The walls of this laboratory are made of strong tungsten titanium alloy, which can resist nuclear strikes and earthquakes with a magnitude of less than 9.0 on the Richter scale. ”
"The passage you just walked through is a sealed chamber for pressure testing. You're lucky not to be teleported while it's full of water, otherwise you'd have had a chance to experience what it's like to sink 10,000 meters to the bottom of the sea. ”
"As for the way to go back......
A hint of cunning flashed in Yonglin's eyes, and then she narrowed her eyes and said with a smile:
"There's only one passage to the ground, and it's not connected to this lab, which means you won't be able to find it even if you blow it up, and besides, you don't have the skills to blow through these alloy walls. ”
"The location of that passage, and how it was opened, is known only to me, and only with my nod of my head can outsiders come to this lab. In the same way, it is only with my permission that those inside can return to the surface. And now the question is ......"
She paused slightly, and then said the line that Yuyuko had expected a long time ago:
"I'm not going to let you two go back. ”
As soon as this sentence came out, basically, there was no need to continue communicating.
Yuyuko didn't say a word, turned sideways, and in an instant, a silver light flashed, and the demon dream that was already ready to be launched came out from behind her. The cold glow of Lou Guanjian's sword slashed straight across the air, and the wind accompanied Youmeng's body and stopped behind Yonglin with her.
Collecting the trick, throwing the knife, the sound was like a bell, Yonglin's head slowly slipped from her neck, and fell to the ground with a "snap", and her body was still standing upright, not even a drop of blood splashed out of the neat incision.
With a severed head, the swordsman's soul is a demon dream, and he never grinds with you more.
"So, Miss Eight Meanings," Yuyuko took a step forward, looked down at Yonglin's fallen head, and said, "What should I do to let you both go back?"
The so-called, "cut first and then play".
Without saying a word, Yonglin picked up her own head, reattached it to her neck, and wiped the blood from the broken spots. She didn't look angry, she didn't look offended, she was just as calm as ever, frighteningly calm.
"This is your second misunderstanding," she said, "and that is the mistake of thinking that if you defeat me, or treat me roughly, and make me feel pain, you will be able to get out of here." ”
"Actually, you can't. ”
At the moment when these words came out, Yonglin felt the wind pressure from behind him, as well as the killing intent. She didn't even think about it, and when she turned around, she pinched the blade of the Louguan Sword that was pointing at her head.
And this is your third misunderstanding. ”
Blood trickled down from Yonglin's right hand that held the tip of the sword, through the blade and hilt of the long sword, and finally onto the back of Youmeng's hand. It was cold, sticky, and lifeless, like melting glacial water. Yonglin looked down at Youmeng, looked at the sharp light in her eyes, and said coldly:
"You mistakenly think that you can defeat me. ”
"Actually, you can't. ”
As soon as she raised her hand, she raised the Louguan sword and the sword-wielding demon dream, and then flew the whole demon dream out like a little chicken and smashed it on the alloy wall of the laboratory. After that, she quickly turned around and swept sideways with her blood-stained right hand, shattering all the cherry butterflies that flew in front of her into shimmering dust.
"It's been a while since I've been in a fight, and I mean, like this, a purely physical 'fight'. ”
Yongrin and Yuyuko of Seogyoji Temple not far ahead looked at each other, and she watched as the cherry blossom light emanated from Yuyuko's body, spreading through the air like fine dust. One by one, the instruments shrouded in light began to fail, malfunction, and then shut down and plunge into darkness.
"I remember the last time, about a thousand years ago, when we were still on the moon. She continued, smiling, her eyes flashing with nostalgia for the past, "The princess stole the new medicine I concocted, and was hunted down by the whole moon, and I even fought with my own students. ”
"Since then, I haven't done it myself. My body gradually became sluggish, and the muscle cells in it gradually forgot the feeling of struggling on the line of life and death. Don't get me wrong, that's not a bad thing. ”
"Because the so-called 'war' is just one of the many ways to solve the problem, which is neither clever nor primitive. And I have many other ways to crush and disintegrate my enemies, just as your swordsman servant has many swords...... Oh, sorry, she only has two. ”
"In short, I want to say that I am not fighting you now, not because there is only one way to fight. If my goal was to get rid of the two of you, you wouldn't even be standing in front of me intact. And the reason why you're here means ......"
"It means I really don't have anything else to do. ”
