This alley, it's long, it's long.

This is one of the passages to the outside world in the network system of the semi-dimensional [Underground World], and the repeated scene several times can make anyone doubt himself, but he is still so determined.

After all, he knew that it was nothing more than torture, forcing those who were advancing along the road to turn back or deviate to other exits far from the end, and even if there were no monsters chasing them, the silence was so complete that there was no sound of the wind, and the main tone of the long alley without doors and windows, gray and dim like a faded old photograph, and the sparse murmur in his ears, all seemed to lead people crazy.

So, when did you stop feeling scared in such a place?

Perhaps it began on the day when I was convinced that I had enough laws to safely navigate the passages of each half-plane, because all fear stemmed from the unknown.

Albert deliberately slowed down the pace of his march, because, under normal circumstances, he really can't run away, there are wolves in front of him and tigers in the back, and several government officials will definitely choose to flank the attack, since no matter how fast or slow it will be, it is better to slow down, besides, he does need some rest time, the more the better, at least to minimize the damage to the main wound, especially: someone in the opponent just now fed some poison that can interfere with the construction of runes.

In fact, it is not poisonous, but its innate nature is very easy to be attracted by spiritual power, resonate, and cause interference, which makes the difficulty coefficient of casting spells that are already easy to cast.

There are many monsters that interfere with spellcasting that take advantage of this kind of thing.

There are also differences in the properties of different substances and the corresponding most suitable rune series, which is one of the reasons for the subtle difference between Avaranga's materials science and earth materials science, which I mentioned earlier, and at the end of the day, the scientists on both sides of the strait are constantly exploring and breaking through.

Fortunately, it was originally a melee just now, and the loss of mental power was not large, although it was really cool to open the Wushuang in close combat, but, rune casting is the main job, and martial arts refining is a hobby.

[Thundercloud Storm changed the ninth set and then changed the chopping version], ready to go.

If those people want to do it.

In such a place, the sound can always be heard far away, he can already hear the footsteps, the problem is that there is only one person, fortunately, there is movement further back, there is no need to figure out the behavior and psychology of those people.

He's ready.

"It's all said, why run. ”

Black suit and sunglasses, familiar dress, familiar people, this is the leader just now, there are definitely more than three or four of them, Albert understands that before, it was just to coax her.

"yes, so I didn't run away. He sat on the floor, his back against the wall, and made a fireball with a pale face to warm up, "Talk?"

"Of course. ”

The man spoke, taking a step back.

He watched carefully, like a monster standing in front of him, more cautious than before.

"It doesn't have to be like this, right?" Albert looked at him with caring eyes, expressing his incomprehension of being treated with a high-level defensive stance, "I'm a seriously injured person, you just need to guard against magic, but I can't stand on my feet now." ”

"Yes, a seriously wounded man whose whole body is more than half a centimeter deep, and who is not close to a critical wound. ”

His face was expressionless and unmoved: "What kind of injury did you suffer?"

"Internal injuries. ”“......”

The atmosphere froze for a moment.

He closed his eyes and breathed, the stuffiness in his chest calmed down, the strength of the wandering circulation and the release of [healing techniques] in his body, the mental power was channeled internally, most of his physical strength was recovered, the body surface inhibitors were exhausted, and the scars disappeared in a few strokes, and the male witch's face became ruddy and healthy at a speed visible to the naked eye, although it would take time to fully recover, but it was no big deal.

In the eyes of the man in sunglasses, he is sitting on the real thing and pretending to be injured, and he is more sure that caution is right.

"Before you can introduce yourself, you can call me [Manager], then, tell me the password to open the box. He asked bluntly, "The second layer." ”

Negotiations have officially begun.

"There's a core missing piece of information in there. "It doesn't matter. ”

"I've set a time limit, and after a few hours the magic runs out, and everything in the suitcase will burn in an instant, and you won't get anything. ”

"That's okay. ”

The situation is very dangerous, and the employees of the government [relevant departments] have gained the right to speak early, gathered forces, completely suppressed him, and crushed him.

"Even if the box blows up a flower, what does it matter. The man who claimed to be the manager had already made deductions in dealing with it, almost without thinking, blocking all his possible retreats, "As long as you are there, it will definitely not be a problem to write it many times, in this case, what does it matter if that paper is there." ”

[Manager] bent down and projected the image with the [Leaving Crystal], that is, Cecilia was waiting for him at a familiar intersection, stretching her neck and standing on tiptoe, trying very hard to find him in the crowd.

"Rest assured, she's still waiting for you there, it's safe, and anything that doesn't have long eyes that dares to hit her idea will be broken by us and fed to the dogs. ”

Before he could react, the man in sunglasses replied first: "This time, it's also for the sake of foolproof, and I have to do it as a last resort." ”

"She trusts you very much, and you have been around for a long time according to the instructions, and you are also very affectionate, but only in this way can we talk well, I am also a married person, I know your feelings, but if what you have in your hands falls into the hands of other countries, it will be too dangerous. Of course, he knew that it would make Albert angry, but it was a necessary measure, "It's okay not to go abroad, we just need to be optimistic, but it's too risky to go out." ”

"Mr. Albert, the country needs you. ”

In just a few minutes, the confrontation came to an end.

He still wanted to know.

Albert held on to the gray stone wall, and the eerie sunlight that gave it a dim and old feeling was summoned to regain some strength.

"What do you all know about me?"

"A lot. [Manager] smiled and took off his sunglasses, "Your Excellency the Traverser." ”

"Among the three traversers, the one who stands out the most in terms of energy utilization, I can say that I have watched you grow up. He has been secretly rehearsing for today countless times, blocking the voice so that others can't hear it at all, "Although you don't know, I have read your report for ten years." ”

"Those things are highly confidential, but after all, they have to go through my hands, so I know you better than your friends. ”

Even if he knew from the beginning that the probability of failure was too great, and if he really failed, he was still a little disappointed in himself: "I won't do things well." ”

"As long as you stay, it's easy to say anything. ”

Decisions made in the past still affect today.

At that time, the "child" who had just embarked on the right track of life, hoping to leave his name in the textbooks in the future, he only had this one wish, at least when he entered the soil again, many people would remember him, and he traveled the world for a long time after meeting her.

"I know better than you how destructive those things can be, but I need time, enough time, maybe ten years. "This is the only condition," I want to accompany her to finish the rest of the way, and after that, I will stay in China to study hard and not enter the research institute, but I don't need to worry about me running away, and I don't have to worry about me messing around. ”

"My friends are here, my brothers are here, Cecilia's family is here, everything I know and like is here, and besides, if I really mess around, she won't forgive me. ”

"15789432, this is the password, with those basic research as sincerity, for ten years, after that, a complete theory will be studied. ”

He waited quietly for an answer.

"Anything, going abroad, no. ”

Very simply refused.

“...... Come here, I have something to say to you. He glanced at the similarly dressed agents who had just arrived, "The stakes are too high for them to hear." "You're not going to fool me?"

"Can I still run away?"

The wizard took two steps towards him and asked, "Where else can I go?"

[Manager] thought for a few seconds, and activated the spirit link: [Then you say, what's the matter.] [Don't move.] 】

He grabbed [Manager] by the shoulders and lifted his coat, revealing a dense array of circuits and strangely shaped cylinders inside:

"High-concentration enchantment compression refining explosive liquid bombs, a total of thirty, each with an effective lethality of seven to twelve meters, detonation methods have remote control and manual detonation, can be a single explosion, can be detonated at the same time, sharp shaking and hitting with electromagnetic anomalies and rapid changes in temperature and overheating will cause explosions, a single explosion will be a chain explosion, conventional signal interference, shielding, blocking, will also explode, connecting circuit wires are damaged, or will explode. ”

"At such a distance, the [Wizard Hood] can't resist it in time, especially since I have mixed the container with substances that can interfere with the stability of spellcasting and runes. The roles reversed instantly, and it seemed to be Albert who had the last laugh.

"If you don't want to die, be honest with me. ”

People tend to become lax after the difficulty is solved, and this laxity is one of the conditions available for solving the problem at hand.

It's just that at the beginning, even he didn't expect that he would be able to catch the guy who seemed to be the manager of the area.

He twitched the corners of his mouth, looked at the bomb on the wizard's body, slowly raised his hands, and sighed: "It seems that you won." ”

"Well, I won. ”

He smiled subtly:

"But you must not have thought of one thing. ”

Among the dozen or so agents who surrounded each other from both ends of the aisle, the agent who was furthest from the two slowly took off his sunglasses and raised his magic gun at him:

"I'm [the manager]. ”
