Chapter 13: The First Meeting
γBroadcastγPay attention to "Reading at the starting point", get the first-hand news of 515 red envelopes, and students who have not grabbed red envelopes after the Chinese New Year can show their skills this time.
There are no windows in this room. There are no doors, no stairs, no elevators, and no walkways. As far as the building is concerned, this room has no function at all.
Except for those who use the level 4 ability, it is impossible to enter this room.
It is arguably the strongest fortress in this building, which is constructed of an algorithmic impact diffusion composite material and is said to be stronger than a nuclear shelter.
The space here is too large to call an interior, and there is no lighting at all. But the room was filled with star-like light, because countless screens and buttons were set up on the walls around the room, and they were glowing. Tens of thousands of cables and pipes, large and small, extend from tens of thousands of instruments like blood vessels on the floor, all concentrated in the center of the room.
In the center of the room is a huge test tube.
A cylindrical container made of tempered glass, which is 4 meters in diameter and more than 10 meters in length, is filled with a red liquid that is said to indicate that it is a weakly alkaline culture medium. In the test tube was a human in a green surgical gown, floating on the ground with his head and feet.
There is no adjective to describe him other than the word "human". This silver-haired "human" looks like a man and a woman, an adult and a child, a saint and a prisoner.
Did he acquire all the possibilities that a "human" could pursue, or did he give up all the possibilities that a "human" had?
Either way, the only thing that can be trusted is that only the word "human" can be used to describe him.
Well, I'll admit that such a large paragraph written above is all pasted to cheat the word count.
At first glance,Naraku thinks that this is described in the original book as 'like a man and a woman.γLike an adult and like a child.γLike a saint and like a sinner'The actual ruler of the school city.,The guy who calculates everything for a certain plan in his heart.,It's really a puzzling existence.γ
However, he has seen more peculiar existences with his own eyes, so naturally he will not make a fuss about it.
All in all, in Naraku's eyes, I don't know if it's because of some bad thoughts, or if it has to be done, this man who is wearing a green surgical gown and floating upside down in the inexplicable liquid in the test tube is definitely a strange guy.
After helping the bee-eater Cao Qi solve those troubles, Naraku helped her stabilize her [self] a little, but in fact, it was just a few mouths, and as for the truly firm [self], it needs to be done by herself, and others can't help her.
After that, Naraku and the bee-eater were separated, and they didn't meet again for a while, and he wandered around idly until a gang of men in black found him, and then he followed them to a building with no doors or windows, and was brought here by a young girl with a bandage in her breasts.
"Welcome,'Guest' who entered the school city without permission,Narakuγ The upside-down man, Aresta, was the first to speak, and it was impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman from his voice alone.
"Ah,I already know my name.,But it's not difficult to know this with your ability.,Anyway, you can really bear it.,It's taken so long to come to me.,And ......" Naraku spread his hands and said, "Can I take this sentence as a dissatisfaction with my unauthorized entry into the school city?" β
"No, I'm just telling the truth, and I'm curious about your presence."
"I'm not interested in you, don't you feel bad about staying in a test tube all the time?"
"Why do humans need to do things that can be replaced by machines? Everyone who comes here will observe me carefully, and only your reaction is the most ordinary. β
"I've seen a lot of more peculiar beings than you, and if I had to react to them one by one, I would die of overwork."
ββ¦β¦β
After a moment of silence, Aresta spoke again, though not by himself.
ββ¦β¦ Getting back to business,For the way you appeared in the school city,Although I can't understand it,But may I ask...... Who are you? What is the purpose of being here? Aresta asked the main question.
For him, the sudden appearance of Naraku is a big variable, and the variables that are not in the plan must be intelligence gathered, and then the plan should be revised in time, and the variables can be mastered, and if they can't, they will be ...... Obliterate!
However, Aresta felt from his observations some time ago that the boy smelled of danger, and that he did not have a way to accomplish this perfectly, so the erasure could not be established.
"I'm just a traveler, I'm wandering around a lot, it's just a stop on my travels, and it's just a coincidence that I'm here, do you believe me?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Well, I don't have to believe you, after all, I don't have anything worthy of your trust, say what you want." Naraku is very direct and straightforward to point directly at the red heart.
"Since you're a traveler.,During your stay in this city.,At some time necessary, help resist those who threaten the school city.γ
"Be a scavenger." Naraku thought about it for a moment, nodded and said, "No problem, but in exchange, in this school city, you have to give me a certain degree of convenience." β
"And rightfully so." Aresta agreed simply, "But, on the other hand, you can't do anything too drastic in the school city. β
"I can abide by the laws of the school city.,But in the event of an emergency or a situation that would endanger my own safety,,I will take action to protect myself according to the situation.γ
"Yes."
"So...... Hope we have a happy cooperation. β
A smile that was not a smile appeared on the corner of the upside-down man's mouth.
After Naraku finished speaking, the knot Tatsuki also appeared at the right time, and the ability to activate the ability took him away.
"What do you think?"
Who is he talking to in this empty world?
"He's a funny guy." The voice of an announcer that seems to have a bad frequency sounds, "At the same time, it is not a simple existence, and it is ......"
"And what?" The hanged man seems to be interested in the rest of the mysterious voice.
"He seems to have noticed my presence, but he just didn't indicate it."
"Huh...... That's amazing. He said he was surprised, but Aresta's indifferent expression remained the same.
"What are you going to do?"
"Do nothing, since there's an interesting guy, then his appearance should lead to something interesting."
"Aren't you worried about affecting the 'plan'?"
"There is too little information to confirm for the time being, so let's observe for a while."
ββ¦β¦β
The mysterious voice did not respond to Aresta's words, falling silent, and as the conversation between the two ended, the closed room returned to its original dead silence again.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
The darkest period before dawn has finally passed, and the sun has risen over the horizon, and with it comes a new day.
The morning of the school city seems to come relatively early.,I saw a lot of people on the street early in the morning.,There's morning luck.,There's someone who goes out early to run errands.,You can also see a few patrolling [guards] from time to time.γ
On the top floor of a tall building, Naraku sat casually on the edge of the rooftop, watching the sunrise: "It's started, it's a new day...... Anyway, it's the first time I've seen the sunrise like this since I came to this world. β
"So, the next thing is to find a place to live, that guy Aresta, the movement is still quite fast."
Naraku already had in his pocket the identification he needed to operate in the city, and not long after leaving the building, a man in black sent him all the information related to his identity, but at that time he didn't go to the house immediately to see the sunrise in the city, and he didn't plan to leave until now.
At this moment, an airship just flew over his head over the school city, accompanied by a message that stunned Naraku......
Ps. chasing more children's shoes, are there any free appreciation tickets and starting coins~ The countdown to the 515 red envelope list is over, I'll pull a ticket, ask for an increase and appreciation vote, and finally rush a handful!
