"Arrived, and in front of me is the experimental area."

The long passage was gradually thrown behind each other in the march between a man and a machine, and at the same time, the voices between the two were becoming more and more scarce, and the traces of magic pipelines and circuits that spread all over the walls of the surrounding passages began to become denser and denser over time, and even the humming of magic circulating in them gradually became obvious. Driving away those unprovoked black shadows that appeared here from time to time, Kyle II, who was leading the way, finally stopped his steps, and finally turned to Duan Qing, who had been protected by himself, with the sound of electronic synthesis that kept sounding in front of him: "Warning again - there are too many unknown dangers ahead, visitor, you'd better leave first." ”

"This is the experimental area." It was Duan Qing's low sigh that answered it: "After a lot of hard work, I finally came to this place...... Hey, so why did we get to this point, shouldn't we just cut it in two and get out of here? ”

"I'm sorry, visitor, but I can't meet all of your requests." As if hearing Duan Qing's muttering voice getting lower and lower at this time, Kyle II's square head slowly lowered towards the other party: "After everything calms down, I will send you out as quickly and in the best way." ”

"Don't make unnecessary promises, the so-called magical teleportation area may be paralyzed right now." Shaking his head, Duan Qing then pulled his emotions out of some strange direction: "When the time comes, I will crash to the ground and die, and I don't care about any other consequences...... Not. ”

"Again, you really haven't seen anyone with chains come to the depths of this ruin, have you?" There was a noticeable pause in his voice, and when it sounded again, there was a lot of suspicion: "Or maybe a human being in chains?" ”

"99% of the first-level lifeforms that pass through the upper area are within my surveillance range, and even if I don't find it in the end, I can trace his movements, or the corpses left here." There was not a hint of emotion in the voice of Kyle II who replied to him: "Unless he breaks into this underground core in a way I don't know - as far as I know, it's even more impossible." ”

"Well, then our other conjecture may be going to die here." Throwing out of his mind the information related to Shi Ayun that he had guessed with Xue Ling Phantom Ice, Duan Qing pursed his lips expressionlessly: "Anyway, a person who may only come here later may not know anything about everything that happened here...... Let's go. ”

"I felt an unusual fluctuation." After stopping Duan Qing's steps that he was about to lift behind the mechanical arm, Kyle II's electronically synthesized voice echoed between the passages again: "Please follow behind me, no more than three miles-"

Bang.

As if encountering some difficulty, the outstretched arm of the magical mechanical creature stopped in mid-air, and the metal door that had been opened countless times under its own magic signal was indistinguishable from the door, but it did not respond to its movements at this time, and the dim yellow glow of the door and the light reflecting the traces of magic did not seem to have any reaction: "......"

"What's wrong?" After moving his gaze back and forth between the gate in front of him and Kyle II's back for a long time, Duan Qing asked in a deep voice, "Did you encounter some unknown problems?" ”

"No, no problem."

Shaking his head lightly, Kyle II, who replied, took two steps forward with his arms raised, and the finger-like part stretched out directly in front of the arm was then deeply embedded in the gap of the closed door in Duan Qing's expression that tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Please stand back." ”

A creaking sound then sounded in front of the gray-robed magician, and the motionless magical creature then pulled the door open with great force: "Alright. ”

"You please, you please." Subconsciously raised his hand, Duan Qing's voice at this time seemed to be trembling like the metal gate that had been distorted: "In case there is anything inside, I can't afford to take this responsibility, so let's let you, the culprit—uh, no, it's better for the manager to go in first." ”

"I'm not much of a steward, and since my mission was replaced, everything here has nothing to do with me." There was an inexplicable fluctuation in his tone, and Kyle II, who answered him, had already torn the flickering metal door to the sides: "As for the stewards themselves, as far as I know, the life span of these humans is far less than one-tenth of our magical weapons. ”

The hot breath gradually leaked out from the door it tore open with the disappearance of the huge black back, blocking all the words that Duan Qing originally wanted to say next, he waved his left arm, which was a little weak due to excessive weakness, and extended his gaze with all his strength into the gate: "It seems that the situation is indeed the same as I thought, there are no living beings here. ”

"If you don't count the existence of those undead units."

Following the direction that this magical creature intended at this time, Duan Qing finally distinguished the scene that was gradually emerging under the hot air in front of him, and a ring-shaped device suspended by the huge ring also carried a crackling energy roar sound at this time, slowly rotating in the magic fluctuations of countless converged transparent energy tubes. The emerald green points of light representing the flow of energy were also connected to each other under the guidance of these energy flows, condensing into the same ring-shaped flocculent shape along the direction of the huge device, and countless magic circuits and magic runes gathered around these energy pipelines also floated on the surface of the huge ring pipelines with a trembling sharp sound at this time, in sharp contrast to the dense black skeletons around them: "So-"

"So many undead."

The words that almost shouted were swallowed back by himself, and Duan Qing, who was choking his neck, then quickly pulled his weak steps behind Kyle II: "So they have long occupied here?" ”

"It doesn't seem that simple." Shaking his head and saying these words, the voice belonging to Kyle II was also much more blurred by the obscuring of his back and the agitation of the circular device that filled the vast hall: "The life energy they contain now...... It's too low, and it's not stable. ”

"Some of them are still growing."

Saying something that surprised Duan Qing, the body of this magic guide weapon also walked forward slowly again, and Duan Qing, who hurriedly followed behind him to seek protection, then calmed his mind that had been boiling for a moment, and a sharp light flashed in the eyes that came out of it: "So this is the refresh point we mentioned countless times before - uh no, it's the monster's lair?" Where these skeletons were made? ”

"It's not what it's supposed to be." Pointing to the long pipe in the distance, obscured by countless black bodies, the voice of the tall magical creature named Kyle II replied calmly, "The collected energy gathers here, and then transmits to the next place - this large orbital diversion device is supposed to serve this role in the first place." ”

"But now."

Halfway through the description of the electronic synthesis, the scanning brilliance that was constantly patrolling suddenly stopped at a certain location, and Duan Qing, who was aware of this anomaly, then slightly diverted the attention he had gathered, and looked at the corner of the hall that was blocked by countless black figures connected together: "What's wrong?" ”

"It should be there."

Without answering Duan Qing's words, the heavy body of the tall magic creature gradually lowered down, and the magic hum caused by the gathering of power then caused an increasingly obvious electric current on the surface of the broken body, and the charging action that wanted to rush in that direction was stopped by Duan Qing's shout behind him the next moment: "Wait a minute!" ”

"The threat must be eliminated." The green light of the scan flashed in front of him, and Kyle II's voice sounded again as if it trembled at the appearance of these words: "And - the source of the threat - "

"Didn't you just say you wanted to keep me safe?" shouted this sentence loudly at the other party's back, Duan Qing's pale face seemed to be much more ruddy because of his solemn tone: "Do you still want to rush to that monster pile with me?" Do you have a way to protect me in this situation? ”

"Protection—Visitor—" The sizzling current gradually fell silent, replaced by Kyle II's electronically synthesized voice that had lost its human simulated feelings, "Protocol conflict, precedence activation." ”

"The target is not listed as a hostile object, and the level of maintenance of the first-level lifeform is high." I don't know if it's because of the influence of the powerful energy fluctuations around it, its self-reported voice seems to have become extremely unstable in Duan Qing's ears: "According to Article 1 of Chapter 2 of the Priority Determination Agreement, the priority of Protocol No. 76 will be higher than that of Protocol No. 413 in this case. ”

"I'm sorry, visitor." Resuming his way of speaking in a way that simulated human feelings, the magic guide weapon re-erected his tall body: "Please don't leave my side for a while, the situation here is safe for now." ”

"I didn't mean to stop you, at least we can neutralize it a little." Enduring the shaking of the ground caused by the gradual turning of the huge body, Duan Qing's face also regained its pale face due to the dry smile: "Just like the previous operations in the connected area, as long as we cooperate properly, the two purposes of the so-called 'eliminating threats' and 'protecting my safety' may not be completely conflicting." ”

"That's a good proposition." The sound of electricity and the hum of magic echoed in the air, and Kyle II's square head turned to look above his head: "But there are only two of us here, and even with a perfect battle plan, it will be very difficult to clear the target without being damaged." ”

"Then think of another way, since our own strength is weaker than the comparison, then use everything we can use." Duan Qing, who answered it, also pointed in the direction that the tall magic machine was looking at at this time: "This is also the law that our adventurers are good at using." ”

"In my data records, this tactic is one of the better ways you humans are at fighting." Kyle II replied in a calm voice, "However, as you have just seen, my control over this place is very limited, and even the gates are out of my command. ”

"It's okay, it's not really about turning off some device to clean up." Answering such words, Duan Qing involuntarily touched his nose: "But...... Is this really okay? Let me see these magical experimental devices? ”

"Haven't you kept the contents of your experiments a secret?"

He raised his head and blinked at the square face of Kyle II with his head down, and the magic lights that flickered on the screen-shaped face also kept circling with the brief eye contact between Kyle II and Duan Qing, and finally settled on the extinguished string of yellow light signals: "Filter the information - filtered." ”

"In order to prevent other accidents, only the explanation and explanation of the device you see." It turned around and introduced the half-ring device that was revealed in Duan Qing's eyes in the distance and was entangled with those black undead creatures at this time, "This experimental device is called the Large Orbital Diversion Device, and it is one of the Morris family's previous research projects. ”

"Its role is to use the theory of magical circulation to accelerate the elemental energy filled in it." Raising one of his arms slightly, Kyle II's explanation shifted to the emerald green surface of energy that seemed to be solidified in those transparent tubes: "The ultra-high velocity of elemental energy produces extraordinary changes and exhibits many different properties - this is one of the main functions of this large experimental device. ”

"Well, it's kind of like an electron accelerator." Pinching his chin and raising his head, Duan Qing's gaze began to gradually sweep along those energy pipelines from those tributaries that kept flowing into them: "But the flow of these energies doesn't look like they have super high speeds, but rather like they're frozen in place......"

"That's because they've been accelerated to the second stage." Shaking his square head, Kyle II pointed in the direction behind him and said, "Under the acceleration of the second stage, a large number of elements will be entangled together, smaller in size, but with more energy. ”

"It's like those energy storms that are rising in the upper and connecting regions at this time."

It retracted its mechanical arm and whispered a mundane reply.
