Chapter 188: Organ Island
Tang Xin lingered for a while.
The Superior Demon had returned to the Bottomless Abyss from the plane portal, and the Hellish player stood still with a dejected expression.
After a while, he turned on the communicator and said with trepidation, caution.
"The boss's subordinates are not doing well, Gunther has just announced that the mission has been completely failed, and the line of abyss and hell has been completely broken...... Now what do we do? ”
"Yes, Team Two is there to follow up on the mission of the Aether Side, the line of the Northern Continent is nearing the end of the Third Continent, and the Fourth Stygian Sea...... Yes...... The assassination failed before that, do you want to send someone again...... Rest assured, this time we will ask someone else to do it...... Yes, I will do it, it is better to ask people from Russia or Eastern Europe, they take money to do things, and they are very tight-lipped...... Good...... Yes, it's a well-thought-out plan that will never go wrong again, definitely not like it was before...... Boss, don't worry, if there is no accident, most of the guilds are under our control......"
This player seems to be the number one and second in command under the boss behind the scenes, and even if such a big epic mission fails, it is still reused.
Tang Xin pondered his ominous call.
Assassination - presumably to kill her.
Will the next wave of killers come to kill her, the killers of the Battle Race? Or the mafia?
She had to ask in advance what the old janitor of the Wen family's mansion was about the victory rate against the battle race killers.
And the mission of the Aether, the Northern Continent, and the Stygian Sea that this man mentions - it seems that their layout is not just an epic mission.
This is also normal.
Tang Xin alone has several epic tasks on his back, and if an organization with such a big power can't dig up a few task lines. That's too low.
Speaking of the Aether, it's almost time for her Tree of Life quest to be done.
And the northern continent, it is estimated that it is the task of the Frozen Throne. But the guild that completed the mission in the previous life was Mikado, and the leader of Mikado, Sake, seemed to regard her as a rival.
Could there be some connection between this?
Of course, it is also possible that she thought too much, and the boss behind the scenes finally failed in the competition, so that Yufudo completed the task.
As for the Styx.
She didn't know much about the epic quest of the Styx, but she remembered that there was a mission to bring back the pirates of the Styx, and she didn't pay much attention to it.
And the plan mentioned by the second-in-command later. What's the plan?
It sounds like a big plan, and it's related to the major guilds.
I don't know what Wen Er mentioned before. Now that the major guilds have been planted undercover agents, spies, and all kinds of news about usurping power or changing guilds.
This big boss behind the scenes is really not simple......
The Hellland player doesn't know where the teleportation went.
Tang Xin wanted to sneak behind him, but because he teleported away. I have no choice but to give up.
"The identity of this big boss behind the scenes. Do you have a clue? Tang Xin returned to the Dolphin.
Wen Er shook his head, "He is hiding in the shadows and manipulating Yiqiē, and it is not easy to find out his identity...... But with these clues, we can slowly follow it down. ”
"Well, there will come a time when things will fall out." Tang Xin nodded and said firmly.
"I think you guessed the plan that man said. It must have something to do with the recent riots within the guilds. Wen Er's expression was still gentle and elegant, but there was a slight sharpness in his eyes. Figuring out what they are doing, maybe we can sabotage their plans. ”
This person who was secretly making trouble was now completely angry with Wen Ertong and Tang Xin.
None of them are people who swallow their anger.
The best counterattack is to bankrupt all the boss's plans behind the scenes, and then find out the culprit.
"I think they must be controlling other guilds for some purpose, such as letting these guilds consume each other, or using the power of these guilds to do something......" Tang Xin thought with a frown.
But there are so many possibilities that in the absence of clues, random speculation is like a fly without a head.
"I've already entrusted Brother Drunk to help investigate, maybe there will be a result soon." Wen Er smiled slightly.
By this time, the Dolphin had sailed to the eastern seas, and could already see the small island where the trap Karui was imprisoned in the distance.
Anna and Hodge's expressions were stern.
They turned the Dolphin into stealth submarine mode and slowly approached the island.
When I got closer, I found that not only were all the shores of the island patrolled by dense guards, but the whole island was like a huge island.
Tang Xin glanced at it a few times, and found a lot of vicious magic traps, interlocking all over the island.
"The island is very well defended, but time is of the essence, and we must do everything we can to rescue Kalu." Captain Hodge frowned, looking at the map of the island's defenses taken in front of him.
Wen Er was also on the side.
Suddenly, Wen Er asked, "Do you recognize these organs?" ”
He asked Tang Xin, and among the people present, only Tang Xin, as the owner of "The Diary of the Organ Master Kalu", has a lot of research on engineering and mechanics.
"It's just that I recognize it, so I said that unless the people on the island shut down the mechanism of a line, it is basically impossible to break through quietly." Tang Xin had already seriously studied all the magic mechanisms arranged on the entire island.
I drew a diagram in my notebook.
The island is high in the middle and low on all sides, and Karui is imprisoned in a small cabin in the middle of the island.
The island is not big, but the island is full of traps on three sides, and one side is densely guarded, and the level of guards is very high, and there are basically no dead spots on patrols.
Therefore, they think that the breakthrough can only be a trap array.
If these mechanisms are stored separately, it is actually not difficult, if Tang Xin is proficient, he can unlock one in about 30 seconds.
But the difficulty lies in the difficulty, the mechanism has a very good grasp of people's hearts, one ring after another, there is a gravity trigger type, and a life force sensing type. When the sound sensing type and the gravity trigger type are triggered, it is inevitable that another life force sensing type will be triggered.
Tang Xin was already biting the tip of the pen. I drew the route back and forth, but I couldn't find a way to live.
"This mechanism is like the handwriting of my master Kalu, such a precise calculation, and the transparency of people's hearts, it is really amazing." In his helplessness, Tang Xin was also full of admiration for the person who designed this mechanism.
"So what now? It's all here...... Why don't we kill it? Anna's broadsword slammed down on the table, "It's my fault." Karui is being targeted, even if I don't want to fight for my life, I will save him! ”
"Lady Anna. Calm down. Wen Er comforted, he suddenly thought of something, "You just said that this is a mechanism designed by Kalu?" ”
"yes. I can't be mistaken. Look at this combination, I've seen it in my diary......" Tang Xin nodded and said like a few treasures.
But after all, she is slowly exploring the technique of the mechanism by herself, and one or two combinations can be solved, and the kind of serial combination on the island, she has not reached such a high level for the time being.
"Isn't there any mention of a crack in the diary?" Wen Er asked.
"Nope...... There is no mention of the mechanism of this chain combination, it should be Master Karui's recent research, and it is not written in the diary. Tang Xin shook his head decadently. She looked at the crowd apologetically.
"Show me the diary." Wen Er said thoughtfully.
Tang Xin handed over a complete diary made up of three diary fragments to Wen Er.
Wen Er skipped the first half and started in the middle. Look backwards at an astonishing reading speed.
He had already seen the first half when Tang Xin had just gotten it, the middle part was obtained by Tang Xin in the mission of the Lord of the Northland, and the lower part was auctioned by Tang Xin at the auction house later, and it should have been obtained by someone else and sold at the auction house.
After a while, the thick diary of hundreds of thousands of words was read by Wen Er.
"How? What did you find? Tang Xin looked at Wen Er expectantly.
Wen Er is a true genius, and maybe he can see something different from her.
"Karui said in his diary that research institutions are actually studying people's hearts."
Tang Xin nodded: "Yes, this sentence always appears, and it is true, the organ is not complicated, not cumbersome, the organ that can achieve the goal is the best organ, and only by seeing through people's hearts and predicting the reaction of people after encountering the organ, can the best organ be made." ”
Captain Hodge added, "Karuna, the most proud thing he is to make a dragon lose his temper with a dozen traps, and finally take it as a mount...... He's been talking about it all the time. ”
"Karui always said that the simplest is the most effective, and the more complex it is, the easier it is to be seen." Anna's eyes were a little rosy, as if she was caught in a memory.
"You mean ......" Tang Xin's eyes widened, looking at Wen Er, she suddenly realized something.
But then he shook his head, not daring to confirm.
"Yes, a person's philosophy will not change lightly, why is the mechanism here so cumbersome?"
"I also agree with what you said...... But it's really Karui's handiwork, and I can't be mistaken. This is where Tang Xin hesitated.
Although Karui always said that simplicity is the best, but this kind of complex chain mechanism, she has studied for so long, and she can only praise it, it is really impeccable and magical.
There may be some loopholes or flaws, but this flaw is not something that she can see at her current level.
Only Karui could have designed such a perfect design.
"That's not what I meant...... Have you ever thought that the more sophisticated and complex these mechanisms are, the easier it may be to crack? You can even crack it all at once. Wen Er asked, silent for a moment, but his eyes flashed with a gleam.
"I never thought about it, how could it be so easy?" Tang Xin's face was full of confusion, "It's already complicated to solve one, let alone crack them all." ”
Tang Xin said, and seriously pointed to the trap on the outskirts of the island, "This is already the simplest set of traps, which is a combination of gravity induction, magic laser, and magic flame, and it takes dozens of steps to solve one of them, and the three are combined together, anyway, I can't think of a solution." ”
"Do you believe that I can solve all the traps in ten seconds?" Wen Er smiled with a heartfelt smile.
"Hey, although I admit that you have a very good head, but when you are so strict, don't joke, okay?" Tang Xin said angrily.
Wen Er smiled and said nothing, he happily touched Tang Xin's little head, and gently said one word - sea water.
"Sea water?" Tang Xin was surprised, and suddenly her pupils contracted, "Yes, sea water, it's sea water!" Wow, why am I so stupid, I didn't even think of such a simple truth! ”
After Tang Xin reacted, he kept knocking on his stupid head.
It's a shame, she should have figured it out first.
The more sophisticated the trap, the more precise the design and the right location and conditions are required.
And the trap on this small island is indeed well-designed and costly, but it has a fatal weakness......
These traps are suitable for dungeons, cemeteries, sewers, ...... This type of enclosed interior.
If it is placed on an island...... It only takes one big tide to scrap all of these precious traps.
And they only need to artificially lead the sea water to the island, and as Wen Er said, it doesn't take ten seconds to destroy all the traps.
"Wait...... What do you mean by that? Anna asked, confused.
"We're going to bring the sea to the island now, and we're going to take this route...... All submerged. Wen Er pointed to the map, he had already calculated a route, "Let's take this route to the island." ”
Anna and Hodge then understood.
"Karui is really a very clever man, when the Brotherhood asked him to design the mechanism, he must have thought about the situation when we came to rescue him, so the mechanism he designed is extremely subtle in the eyes of any professional, and there is no hole in it, but in the eyes of those who know him, it is completely different from his simple idea, so that he can find a way to solve it." Wen Er continued to explain.
Tang Xin rummaged in his backpack for a long time and pulled out a giant pumping machine: "I'm going to modify it now, increase the suction power, and increase the opening, so that the impact will be very large, and it should be able to cover the entire route." ”
When Tang Xin was busy, everyone else was also ready.
Tang Xin came to the deck with the giant pumping machine, aimed at the intricately designed and expensive mechanisms, and turned on the switch.
I saw that the rushing sea water was constantly pouring into those mechanisms.
Where the sea had washed over, the traps flickered for a moment, but in the end they didn't do anything more.
Unlike other places where there are many institutions, the hut where Karui is imprisoned is very ordinary.
They knocked out all the unsuspecting guards at the door, threw them aside, and infiltrated the house without much difficulty.
"We're here to save you, Karui......" Anna hugged Karui tightly, crying silently.
Only then did Tang Xin see what the cheap master Karui looked like that she had never seen before.
With soft blond hair flowing and handsome, a typical British handsome guy, he looks only in his early twenties, if it weren't for the confirmation of Anna and Hodge, Tang Xin couldn't believe that this beautiful boy who looked like a certain prince was actually her master, the epic mechanic Karui.
"Let's get out of here as much as we can." Wen Er reminded.
Karui packed up the drawings on the table, and the group returned to the Dolphin the same way they came.
The whole process was silent and did not alarm any of the guards. (To be continued......)
