Chapter 804: An Unexpected Change II
The test area is divided into three major areas, among which the advent area is in charge of the management. Recently, because of the need to migrate, he is also preparing for various micro-migrations of his baby prophecy balls.
At this time, hearing Lu Sheng's summons, Ban Sai quickly rushed directly to the test area and waited quietly at the entrance of the passage of the advent area.
He was accompanied by the head of the Advent Zone, a balding, white-skinned dwarf old man.
Seeing Lu Sheng coming from afar, the two quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"How are you preparing? Before leaving, I have to come back again, go to the world with the largest time flow, can I make arrangements?" Lu Sheng asked in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Ban Sai nodded slightly.
"No problem, just a little correction and it can be solved smoothly. However, it is a bit of a pity that the large sΓ©ance array that has just been built will be abandoned so soon. He smiled wryly.
"It's okay, it's not completely abandoned, maybe we can continue to use it when we come back to the planet. Lu Sheng said lightly.
Ban Sai shook his head, knowing that Lu Sheng was comforting him.
The little dwarf old man on the side was sent by the Qingqi Sect to assist in the migration, and his name was Ares. The name is the same as the Earth God of War in Lu Sheng's memory.
"Actually, it doesn't matter, the sect master has promised that if the outside of the road can be stationed in an area together, then these losses will be solved by the sect at its sole discretion. Ares said quickly.
"Then thank you Sect Master. Lu Sheng hugged his fists, although he had a small unpleasantness with the Qingxuan Sect, but the sect master Yuan Qingqi, as a strong man in the underworld, the apex of the void, has always attached so much importance to him, and Lu Sheng will not hold on to the previous festivals.
After all, he has always been a generous person.
"So, start coming now, Bansai, gather the formation mages and start adjusting. β
Lu Sheng commanded.
"Yes!"
Lu Sheng strode into the passage, and in the white jade-like passage, there were three room entrances, each corresponding to a relatively wide experimental area.
According to the security level of the region, it is divided into three levels, corresponding to different energy level worlds, so that there is no need to waste a lot of high-energy crystals when descending to low-level worlds.
"It's a pity that it was only built...."Bansai led Lu Sheng into the first door. Looking at the large-scale advent formation that was more than ten meters wide inside, his face showed a look of regret and pity.
In the black room, the oval formation outlined countless dark red trajectories on the ground, and a trace of yellow electric light flashed through the gaps in the trajectories from time to time.
Four yellow thunder crystals formed a square and were inserted in the four corners of the formation. On the four walls behind the crystal, there are also complex runes in the shape of swirls representing space and time.
"Let's start now, besides, I need to fix the formation, I must send me a beacon after I pass, when the time is about to move here. Lu Sheng reminded.
"That's fine. Ban Sai and several of the people in charge all nodded.
"So, let's get started. Lu Sheng nodded, strode into the center of the formation, and sat down cross-legged.
Ban Sai and the rest of the formation mages began to quickly adjust the crystals and output energy.
Soon, the silk blue electric light continued to jump, flickering and diffusing all around, and soon the electric light quickly turned into yellow, and then coalesced, turned into a liquid state, and slowly flowed along the formation lines.
The position where Lu Sheng sat was the center of the convergence of countless yellow plasma flows.
A large amount of plasma flowed under his seat.
Rumble!!
Suddenly, with a loud bang, the plasma condensed a sharp arrow and shot into the sky, cutting a gray eye-shaped crack on the top of Lu Sheng's head.
"Go!" Lu Sheng lit up, and instantly turned into yellow light and disappeared into the crack.
"Huh??" Suddenly, Bansai's eyes widened. On the energy waveform monitoring crystal in front of him, I don't know when a strange faint energy line was mixed in during the operation of the formation.
This thread of energy is so subtle that you can't even notice it without looking closely. It wasn't noticed until the formation was activated.
"How did this thing come about?"
"Oh no, it's affecting the adult's advent passage!
"We're working on it!!"
"Damn! it's gone!"
"Where's ??!?"
"I don't know! The direction of the passage has completely changed! We have lost the coordinates of the adults!"
"Damn! Immediately track it down!!" Bansai hammered into the palm of his hand, his face pale.
If Lu Sheng was lost in time and space, he and everyone present would not want to survive.
The Qingxia Sect will take the place of Lu Sheng to deal with everyone who caused this accident!

*************
London, 1875.
Jack frowned and looked at the oil painting in his hand.
The gray sky, between the towering urban buildings, is full of black smoke.
Some of the smoke forms a simple silhouette that resembles a human face, and some of the smoke looms over the street in the shape of a human being.
The buildings in the city are all dark, and there is no light in all the windows.
Only one window was lit with candles.
A pale and slender hand, holding a candle, slowly sticks out of the window, becoming the only orange light in the entire city.
"It's called Hope, and it's good, isn't it?" In the old study, the old professor with a broken leg squinted and smiled at him.
"Hmm.... How do you say it? It's very meaningful, but I always feel that the painting is a bit depressing. "Jack has been a police officer for many years, and he has encountered many difficult and miscellaneous cases, but this is the first time this type of case has occurred.
A young couple living in a marginal area of London, a slender and delicate wife, killed their husband and their five-month-old baby in the most brutal way one night. And boiled their corpses into many pieces of cooked meat, and ate them alone in the room for more than a month.
Once such a case comes to light, it is likely to cause an uproar. But what is surprising is that the case has just been taken over by the police station, and a gag order has been passed down from above.
No exposure is allowed, no interviews are allowed, the case is archived, and up to this point, no private investigation is allowed.
The order from above made Jack extremely dissatisfied and angry. He lived downstairs from the couple, and he often met the two couples when he went up and down the stairs, and he was familiar with the two.
The man is the manager of the trading company, the woman is the painting teacher, both of them have a very good temperament, and it seems that the relationship between the two is also very stable and friendly, the wife has a gentle personality and a gentle temper, and she is not at all like a person who can make such a case.
Jack had a good impression of the couple, but the orders from above were handed down, which also made him extremely embarrassed.
After hesitating for a few days, he decided to ignore the police station and start his own investigation, although he has been in the police for many years, he is not old, and his blood is still boiling in his veins.
He could pat himself on the chest and say frankly and loudly that he had not been corrupted by the corruption and darkness, and that he still had a conscience!
Even though Jack is in his early thirties.
"Hope..... I just want to know what this painting means. Jack asked patiently. "The painting was painted by a female teacher of painting, she looked young, beautiful, gentle, knowledgeable, and a loving husband and the crystallization of their love. β
"Are you kidding?" the old professor couldn't help but laugh. "The artistic conception of this kind of painting, if it were not for the incomparably dark heart and even distorted personality, no one would be able to paint this kind of loneliness with the taste of madness.
If you want to say which psychopath painted it, I still believe it. β
"Andrew, are you serious?" Jack frowned when he heard this.
"Of course. "Old Professor Andrew was not only a painter, but also a historian. "There is a delirious serial murderer in history, before he died, he left some similar dark graffiti, although his painting skills are not high, but the artistic conception expressed, people will feel upset when they see it. β
"Come, I'll show you. The old professor put on his glasses, turned his wheelchair and began to rummage through the shelves for him.
Soon, a brown-shelled picture book was pulled out and laid flat on the desk between the two of them.
Professor Andrew flipped through the album, page by page, and soon found a strange oil painting.
The painting depicts a pig, except that the face of this pig is a woman, with a snake hidden in her belly, and deep in the dirt beneath her feet, is a volcanic magma that is about to erupt.
The magma was like blood, and it was blinding red.
"The author of this painting is the serial murderer I told you about earlier. The old professor shook his head slightly.
"She was born mentally abnormal, and then lived madly for more than 20 years, and suddenly began to kill, and the methods were so rigorous, and the quick movements, it was simply appalling, if she hadn't suddenly committed suicide, I'm afraid no one would have found out that she was the murderer of those murders. β
Jack looked closely at the painting, which also gave him a strange, painful and oppressive feeling.
"Huhβ" Suddenly, he sighed softly, reached out and pressed the drawing paper, and got closer to take a closer look.
"Here..... Something seems to be...?" he tapped his index finger lightly on the pig's right leg in the picture.
There was an extremely fine mark there, like a circle of snakes, surrounding an eye.
"What?" the old professor looked at suspiciously, "this symbol, it is said to be the tattoo on the arm of a murderer, representing an ancient evil god. β
"Tattoos?" Jack shook his head slightly, and he quickly picked up the previous drawing.
"Look here. He pointed to the white arm holding the candle, and on the arm of that arm, there was also a slight edge of a tattoo, which looked exactly like the tattoo on the other painting!
The old professor was also stunned.
"It's... It's....!?" He couldn't help but hold his glasses, and a deep surprise gradually appeared on his face.
Jack was silent.
Because he suddenly remembered that he had seen similar symbols at the scene of the murder. At the time, he thought it was just some kind of venting and performance art after some kind of madness.
But now it seems .... Not a coincidence.
"By the way, Jack, where did you get this painting?" the old professor couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"You'd better not know. Jack's face became solemn, and he couldn't help but touch the holster on his waist.
He decided to go to the murder scene again in a moment and take a closer look.
Anyway, the place where he lives and the scene is also a building.
