Chapter 145: The Secret of the Fifth Layer
Lilith looked at the white mist suspiciously. She didn't know how White Mist knew her secret with Cain.
白fog says:
"Don't wonder how I know. Cain had a lot to say, and while I guess that he was an 'actor' with different personalities depending on his body, there was no need for him to say anything like seven hundred years of life. So I'm guessing it's true. But I'd love to know, what is the reason why you and Cain have lived so long? ”
Lilith didn't dare to hide:
"The first humans to enter the fifth layer have all drunk the water of the Fountain of Eternal Life."
"Fountain of Eternal Life?" This statement surprised Bai Mist.
What is this again?
The fifth and fourth floors of the tower look very different.
"So drinking the spring water will allow you to live far beyond the average human life? Does the Fountain of Eternal Life still exist? ”
"It had long since dried up, and many people drank the Fountain of Eternal Life at that time, after the tower was truly closed. Because the effect of the spring water was written on it, it was quickly taken over by the people of the fifth layer. ”
Thinking of the forbidden land mentioned by the small facial paralysis, Bai Wu guessed that maybe it was not that it was dried up, but that the fountain of eternal life had been carved up.
But what exactly is this spring? Lilith seemed to see the confusion of the white mist:
"It is an old saying that the top of the tower hopes that the ruler of mankind will rule in peace and stability for a long time. They don't like variables, so they give humans eternal life. From generation to generation, only secondary power is inherited. True power is always in the hands of the mighty Eternals. ”
I think this statement can be reflected everywhere......
Humans in the lower two layers may be able to obtain the right to enter the third layer, but compared to the real people of the third layer, they will always carry a secondary word.
Managers can enter the fifth tier with excellent management experience, but they will always be only a tool for the rulers of the fifth tier.
The rulers are in charge of the order of the Tower, but their ruling power is only given by the Eternals.
The Eternals seem to be powerful, but there is no lack of Cain-like horror in them. But they could only succumb to the sixth layer.
"Interesting, who did this ancient saying come from in the first place?"
"Cain'......"
White Mist's eyes played, obviously, Cain is also a person who has undergone many changes in seven hundred years, but no matter how he changes, this person is evil in his bones.
"What was Cain's view of the Sixth Layer?"
"I don't know...... The sixth floor is inaccessible. Although there is an elevator to reach the sixth floor, the elevator cannot be opened. For so many years, only the rulers of the fifth layer could convey the news in some way and contribute to the top 100 people in the sequence to open the elevator. And Cain, in a sense, was a madman......"
White Mist corrected:
"It's not in a certain sense, it should be in various senses, he's a madman, a normal person like me, that's how he should use words, of course, I'm not crazy."
Lilith didn't know how to refute White Mist's self-perception, so she had to continue to get to the point:
"Cain was crazy, and before he entered the Tower, he had come into contact with some beings who had already foreseen the Tower's coming, and they told Cain that the Tower was not a place for humanity. So he has always been very obsessed with what the sixth floor is, so he climbed to the top of the nine hundred meters along the pipe track of the elevator......"
"I guess he's not using the ontology."
"Yes, he didn't use his body, but because of that action, his other two bodies became weak. It's like being branded in some way. Not only those two bodies, he had been away from the fifth layer for a long time, and the next time I saw him, it was many years later. Perhaps even his very body has been hit hard. ”
White Mist pondered.
The existence of the sixth layer, apparently at the level of consciousness or soul, has dealt a heavy blow to Cain.
At that time, Cain was probably like a brave man challenging the fifty-first level. Everything on the fifth level may not be attractive to Cain at all?
He had always been curious about what the sixth floor had, but the elevator could not reach the sixth floor, and from the previous four floors, he could easily conclude that the higher the level, the greater the authority and the more resources he would receive.
Therefore, he doesn't care about the fifth level of Game of Thrones, he wants to participate in the bigger game. So he climbed to the sixth floor.
But he was like a brave man who had challenged the fifty-first level, complacent and lucky, thinking that if he didn't use his main body, he would be fine.
But it is clear that there are enemies on the sixth level that are beyond Cain's imagination.
Maybe for 700 years, Cain was trying to figure out how to restore the body? Or to erase some kind of imprint.
The best way to do this is to find a new body that transcends the body. So he set his sights on the short brother who had only risen in the past two years.
Everything makes sense, but there are some details that Bai Wu is still unclear, and he changed the question:
"You were once a ruler?"
"There are seventy-two people who first entered the fifth floor of the tower, but only eight can compete for the rulership."
That is, there are eight rulers? At present, it is known that the Pang family, the Zhong family, the Yan family, the Xie family, and the Qin family.
"These seventy-two...... Have you all drunk the Fountain of Eternal Life? ”
"Yes. But the surviving third, the third of the people, first existed as 'councillors', and everyone discussed how to govern the tower. In the end, of the twenty-four, only twelve remained, and the parliamentarians began to form their own forces, and some political opponents were purged. ”
"You are one of those who have been purged."
Lilith didn't speak, so she acquiesced.
White Mist finds it interesting:
"It seems that in the end, this game of seventy-two rulers has stabilized at eight people, and the forces of the eight parties jointly control this tower?"
"It's obvious. They have been in control of the Tower for seven hundred years, and these eight forces have been very stable. ”
"Did Cain save you?"
"To be exact, he brought me to the fifth layer, and if he hadn't gone to the sixth layer and disappeared for a while, I wouldn't have been purged."
"If you don't have a good brain, don't blame others, there may be someone more powerful than Cain in the fifth layer, and if he gets in the way of others, he will also be purged."
Lilith didn't dare to refute the white mist.
If Bai Wu wants to ask, he has actually asked almost the same. There are seventy-two eternal beings on the fifth level.
These immortals, after all kinds of fighting, only eight are left on the surface.
However, it cannot be ruled out that there are some like Cain and Lilith who escaped from the fifth layer.
Maybe lurking in the tower as a sweeping monk, maybe going outside the tower and becoming a super evildoer.
And what exactly is the Fountain of Eternal Life, whether it is provided by the people of the sixth layer, everything is not clear.
Lilith knew too little.
"Cain already had various sequence abilities before he entered the Tower?"
"Yes, sooner than I thought. I once asked him how his ability came about, but I asked several times, after more than ten years, and each time the statement was different. Including the questions you asked me about him earlier, I can't guarantee that it is 100% true, he is an existence that lives between the unreal and the real. As for the source of his ability, I think the most credible thing is that he has been in contact with some towers, and he has predicted the existence of the towers before they arrived. ”
White Mist accepted this answer, Cain was indeed a liar, and lying had become his norm.
"How long have you known Cain?"
"I can't remember. I really can't remember...... It's been too long, too long. You can't imagine how long 700 years is. ”
"It's really unimaginable. Speaking of which, Cahide is outside the tower, is there any old enemy? Does he have an object of fear? Do you have a particular favorite? ”
Lilith heard that White Mist was attached to Cain, and she didn't think that White Mist could deal with Cain, but she answered truthfully:
"Weakness...... Preferences, I don't know, preferences are probably to deceive others. As for the old enemy, there was once one, in Shicheng, Baichuan, and Shudu, he once fought fiercely with a guy with a mask for a long time. ”
Speaking of which, Lily looked at the white mist with wide eyes:
"The mask...... You have it too. ”
When Bai Wu rescued Ruan Qingyun, Lilith saw the mask, and at that moment, it seemed like a dream back to seven hundred years ago.
A lot of bad past events come to mind.
White Mist took out his mask and said:
"This?"
"Yes."
"Do you have any clues about this masked man?"
"In Cain's eyes, this is a man with the same great talent as him for changing the world, and Cain tries to bewitch him in every duel with him, but fails to do so...... And in the end, the masked man disappeared. Not defeated by Cain, but just like that...... Gone. The duel between them was inconclusive. ”
Lilith continued:
"Not long ago, Cain was excited to see that mask appear outside the tower again. It was as if a duel that had been suspended seven hundred years ago had been resumed once again. ”
White Mist shrugged:
"You and he should know that the owner of the mask is not me."
That's not something Cain cared about, he thought that the world should have an opponent, or enemy, who could give him all his might, and who would have a very different worldview of values than he did. That's how he thinks the game is fun. ”
Sure enough, he was a madman.
"I've already told you everything you want to ask...... What are you going to do to me in the end? ”
"It's obviously impossible to let you go. After all, Madame is a living historical archive, seven hundred years, there are many interesting stories in the tower, and when I have purified a certain area, I will take Madame outside the tower, and in the real twilight, we will tell those good old days. ”
Lilith only felt that the white mist was even more perverted than Cain.
白fog says:
"Thank you very much Madame for this information, but I forgot one thing just now."
White Mist gave Lily Ribbon a normal Spiritual Watch.
"Science needs data to verify it, and I need to record the specific horror values you feel, madam."
White Mist once again performed the "assassination".
Because of fear, Lilith's watch value has reached more than two hundred and forty, and it has already entered the red area of the dial.
It was with the help of the heart that the fear of acupuncture was suppressed.
"The pain I have endured since I was more than ten years old, you are a seven-hundred-year-old aunt, you should be as calm as possible."
White Mist recorded the terrifying value and said:
"I don't know when the next conversation will be, but I'll try my best to keep this fear alive, and if it's lower than that, as a serious scientist, I think I have to increase the pain of the stab."
Lilith's fear was not a disguise, and during the conversation, she felt that White Mist seemed to be less perverted than before. But now she found out she was wrong.
Couldn't be more wrong.
"Goodbye."
A tube of anesthetic was injected into Lilith's body, and soon the woman fell asleep.
During the course of sleep, the value of the watch also dropped considerably, but it never fell below seventy-five.
Obviously, this dream is also a nightmare.
……
……
Bai Wu left the cell of the interrogation team, ready to go to Wujiu to discuss the matter of leaving the tower.
On the way, when Yun Shu and Xue Ci saw the white mist, their expressions were a little wrong.
The reaction of the two made Bai Mist feel that their bodies were in some kind of special state of excitement.
In fact, the two of them were a little afraid of Bai Wu, but Bai Wu misunderstood.
"Could it be that the triangle cycle of Xue Ci likes Yun Shu, Yun Shu likes Jing Chu, and Jing Chu likes Xue Ci has been discovered? How do these two feel weird? ”
"Are they so excited to accept this great and strong triangle?"
Bai Mist looked at the two of them, and it also became strange.
So the three of them looked at each other strangely for half a minute, and finally walked away.
……
……
After Bai Wu came to Wujiu's office, he told Wujiu about the fermentation process of the follow-up events of the two military exercises.
He believes that Wujiu needs to stabilize the commander of the investigation corps as soon as possible, and then let the corps commander stabilize the corps commander of the Zhenyu Army, so that the contradiction in this matter can be stopped in time.
Because all the fault lies with Cain, and continuing to allow the incident to ferment will only provoke contradictions between the fifth layer and the two armies.
"What we should do now is to keep going out of the tower to explore and improve ourselves, if it attracts the attention of the fifth layer, it may not be a good thing."
At present, Bai Wu already knows that among the rulers of the fifth layer, there are eight old monster-level monsters, and the strength of these people is not necessarily under Cain.
Maybe they all have very high sequences. At the moment, the feeling of white fog is that the fifth layer is actually far more dangerous than the sixth layer.
Judging from Lilith's words, although the people of the sixth layer will take away the existence with the first hundred sequences, they don't seem to be very active.
For seven hundred years, the sixth floor almost never intervened in the affairs of the lower five floors, and only after the people on the fifth floor had reported that they would open the elevators.
So in a sense, it's the people of the fifth layer who really decide the life and death of the owner of the rare sequence.
And the managers of the two legions, having previously reached an agreement, not to expose the rare sequencers as much as possible.
But if the martial arts incident continues to make a big noise, and the ruler surnamed Pang initiates a ruthless attack, maybe both legions will suffer in the end.
And Wujiu is the most suitable to solve this incident, after all, he is Liu Dui's best friend, as long as he can convince the head of the regiment, this matter will be over.
After learning the pros and cons, Wujiu agreed to Bai Mist's request.
"I can take care of this matter today, is there anything else?"
"Out of the tower." White Mist said with a smile.
"It's really no fun for you in the tower."
"There are many benefits to getting out of the tower, I'm just looking for profit."
"What about the members of the tower?"
"Pioneer members."
Wujiu was puzzled: "Don't you bring Bai Xiaoyu and Qin Lin?" ”
"The pioneer group has known the captain for a longer time, I believe in the captain, but I don't believe in them very much, Lin Wurou, Xiaoyi, Yin Shuang, Wang Shi, are all very good people, I hope to be able to go through this tower investigation, and have a better relationship with them."
Wujiu understood.
White Mist is hoping to be able to tell some of the secrets more of the core members.
"When are you going to get out of the tower?"
"After the captain is done."
"It was five o'clock in the afternoon. See you in the eastern plaza on the ground floor. ”
