Chapter 22: Escape

Ye Yu gently felt the information from his neck, frowned, and jumped onto the waterwheel on the other side with Nuo Nuo and Lu Mingfei

Calmly looked back at the empty Dragon King's bedroom, which was actually the resting hut of the two brothers, and was stunned for a moment

Subconsciously used his spatial ability and unexpectedly succeeded?

Although the perceptual effect was compressed to only a few meters, he managed to use it successfully

This space, the original will of the independent Nibelungen seems to have been withdrawn, and the only thing that suppresses his ability is the suppressive power that this space already has

Ye Yu chewed the information in his mind carefully, and a crazy thought rushed up, but he couldn't suppress it

The master's consciousness leaves

Space that is about to collapse

Perhaps·····

Ye Yu had consulted the corresponding information, and until now he had only deduced a little corresponding information

"Nibelungen" refers to the land of the dead. It is a mysterious country with the glory of dragons. It is the holy place of alchemy that every alchemist longs to go to, because everything there is dead, and the basic concept of alchemy is to "kill" the metal with a high-temperature flame and then "resurrect" it with the ultimate spirit to improve the strength of the metal, and the high-temperature flame used to "kill" the metal is very difficult to obtain. It exists in the real world and has certain rules similar to the real world, but the entrance cannot be found, and it can only be entered after being chosen by dragons or dead.

Therefore, the Nibelungen is built in the real world, but it is an independent space dedicated to the dragon king, and this independent Nibelungen is indissolubly connected with reality

Ye Yu stood on the waterwheel and glanced around

After all, is it an alchemy field that is dependent on reality but is independent?

Ye Yu's eyes flashed with golden light

The ownerless alchemy realm, the Nibelungen that is about to collapse, loses the space of the master

And at this moment, Ye Yu was holding a similar key in his hand

An idea kept echoing in Ye Yu's heart----- seize this ownerless space and be the master of this Nibelungen!!

Crazy enough to snatch his Nibelungen from the hands of the first King of Bronze and Fire? Although this Nibelungen is something that Norton has left behind

·····

"Hurry!!" Lu Mingfei was about to cry, and urged vigorously

Nuo Nuo was silent and didn't speak, but Ye Yu didn't care about the idea of seizing the Nibelungen

When they were about to rise to the top, they saw a bronze plate with a relief human face, which was the living spirit guarding the entrance, Lu Mingfei was absolutely conscious this time, took off the diving gloves, and reached out to wipe the lips of the living spirit

The bronze plate opened as if it had melted, and a huge suction force carried them upward, and by the time they could see their surroundings, they were already in the water again

Ye Yu came back to her senses, no matter how she snatched it, it was the right thing to escape now, looking around, she found that Nuo Nuo was suspended in the water, and in the spotlight, her face was pale

"Let's go!" Lu Mingfei said

"Where are we going?" Nono asked, "Haven't you found it yet?" Communication Cable····· It's gone! ”

Lu Mingfei's heart almost stopped, the entrance to their communication line was cut off, and the end of the line should still be outside, but now there is none, not a single one

"The water here is very slow, and it shouldn't wash away the communication lines, someone will ····· them Took it. Ye Yu's face was not good

"Don't say such scary words, it's like it's haunted! It can't be the Dragon King, right? Can the dragon king do this? Shall we be burned to death by spitting fire? Lu Mingfei held his mouth hard

"The water pressure here is lower." Nono said

Ye Yu glanced at the pressure gauge, and the water pressure had decreased by half, which meant that the water above their heads had suddenly become shallow

"Something is happening." Nono said

"What can happen?" Lu Mingfei pricked up the pair of sensitive rabbit ears.

Suddenly, he heard the faint grinding sound, louder and louder, until finally it became a thunderous roar

Lu Mingfei couldn't tell what the sound was, he felt that he was a villain who had entered a mechanical watch, listening to the sound of the watch running, countless metal gears biting, bearings rotating, and pendulum needles reciprocating, these subtle sounds were amplified thousands of times.

"The Bronze City is up and running!" "Someone started it, and the water level went down, indicating that there was water leaking out from somewhere else, and that would create momentum to drive the Bronze City." ”

A huge, circular shadow fell from the sky, and Lu Mingfei watched as it sank to the bottom not far from him, sinking into a pile of bones, easily crushing the corpses that had been sleeping for thousands of years into powder. It was a huge bronze gear the size of a millstone, probably weighing several tons.

More bronze gears fell, stirring up the entire body of water, followed by large bronze shards carved with patterns of branches and leaves, and the top walls began to crumble.

"What are you kidding? Is this working? It's a landslide, right? Lu Mingfei's eyes widened

"It should have started self-destruct, Norton has already cut off his retreat," Ye Yu said with some trepidation

"It's too late to study the history of this guy's demolition! Look at the top! Lu Mingfei said loudly

Nono looked up and saw a nightmarish sight. Among the falling bronze fragments, a huge snake face stood out. The statue of the dragon king Norton toppled over, and the eight-story colossus, sinking with a fierce undercurrent, was smashing on top of their heads

"Go down!" Without saying a word, Nuno pressed Lu Mingfei's hand on the face of the living spirit under the water

Following the torrent of water, they entered the dragon king's dormitory again, and a moment later, there was an earthquake-like cracking sound from above, thinking that the bronze sculpture was sinking to the bottom, and the whole room was shaking, and it could collapse at any moment

"There's a passage right underneath!" Nono shouted, "That's the last time Ye Sheng and Aki walked!" ”

The door guarded by the living spirits had cracked, and even the walls made of flexible materials like recycled metal could not withstand the violent impact, and the water washed the bronze waterwheels, carrying them downward. There they fell straight down, and there was a bottomless water, and before Lu Mingfei could observe the surroundings, a violent current of water leaked out from the exit above his head, washing over his head

"The upper floor is already filled with water!" Nono shouted, "This place will be filled with water layer by layer!" It's exactly the same as what Ye Sheng Aki encountered! Do you remember the last time you unlocked the Bronze City map? ”

"It's useless, the last time and this time are obviously different, the last time it went straight down was just a coincidence" Ye Yu yelled, "We're like we're in a maze of constant change"

"Turn the oxygen valve to the maximum, pressurize! We have enough oxygen, it's not the same as last time. It's okay to leave your hands exposed, but don't open this knot, once the oxygen leaks, you won't stand a chance! Got it? Ye Yu said to Lu Mingfei

"Understood!" Lu Mingfei nodded vigorously, shaking like chaff

"Dive now, I'll cover you." Nuo Nuo stared at Lu Mingfei's eyes, and in those eyes, a cowardly soul without courage was trembling

Ye Yu was silent for a moment and patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder, "I said I would take you back"

"Can you not say goodbye like goodbye?" Lu Mingfei said

"! Just to never say goodbye! Dive! Nono said loudly

······

Millions of tons of water in this bronze city are flowing down from different entrances, pouring down wildly. The force of the water moved the city around, but it looked like it was going to destroy itself, and the vast and sophisticated city seemed to have life, and it let out a dying wail

Ye Yu held Nuo Nuo's hand, Lu Ming grabbed Nuo Nuo's other wrist stubbornly, and the three of them struggled in the undercurrent

There are countless passages underwater, like a chemical factory in the industrial age, with strangely shaped valves opening and closing, pipes twisting and disconnecting, directing the water to completely different places, and huge water wheels are propelled to rotate at high speed. They had no choice but to burrow into the nearest passage, and only a few seconds later, a huge bronze door closed behind them, almost cutting them off at the waist, and at the same time the huge water pressure seemed to squash them, and the passage began to be flooded

The pipes spread like cobwebs, and it's a labyrinth filled with water. They can't always walk the so-called "road directly below", and in this constantly moving city, no road is fixed

He was about to be exhausted, and the hand exposed to the water had lost consciousness due to the tight wrist and low temperature, and Lu Mingfei couldn't even feel whether the hand was still there or not.

But it doesn't matter, they're dying anyway.

They are completely lost. Lu Mingfei tried hard to recall the map of the bronze city, all the parts on that map were outlined, as if the person who drew the map had seen the construction of the city with his own eyes, and it might be helpful to think of the map, but he also needed to understand its operating rules, which was simply nonsense!

Last time, Lu Mingfei saved Ye Yu by talking, but he couldn't talk about saving himself and Nuo Nuo again

If the communication line hadn't been broken, he could have called Fingal, who was sitting in front of the computer, ready to be a good backup, and now there was no way, even if the backup was not Fingal but a god, he would have to have a way to call God for help.

Maybe there is one last way, Lu Mingfei seems to have a flash of light in his mind, there are some things that can't be explained, and at this time, I can only believe those things that can't be explained!

“BlackSheepWall!” Lu Mingfei shouted

An indescribable force instantly filled this space, and the scattered 'snakes' were forcibly requisitioned, Ye Yu glanced at Lu Mingfei meaningfully, and a look flashed in his eyes

A loud pop sounded in my ears, and it was because of the disturbed current entering the headphones.

"Lu Mingfei, Lu Mingfei, my dear junior brother of waste wood, what are you doing? This is the 214th call of your scrapwood brother Fingal, please answer if you receive it, please answer when you receive it·····" Fingal's lazy voice

"This ····· Is this all right? Lu Ming was speechless

"Fuck you, hurry up! We're going to die underwater! Check me up the map of the Bronze City! Lu Mingfei shouted in the loudest voice he could be

The sound rang out in the forward compartment of the Moniach at the same time, and everyone was stunned

"This ·····" Caesar rushed to the workbench from his position.

Manstein pressed his forehead to death, and in his mind, the snakes were restless. From a scientific point of view, the "snake" is a kind of biological current, and Ye Sheng once used the "snake" to directly connect to the radio equipment of the Moniach. As far as Manstein, who has the "Serpent" in his hand, this group of Empty Serpents is his loyal deployment, and he only obeys his orders

But now the snakes are out of control! The "snake" returned at high speed, instantly entering his consciousness. Lu Mingfei's voice echoed not only in the loudspeaker, but also in his mind

He tried his best to give orders to the "snake", but to no avail

The "snake" was transmitting the signal, and he, acting as a transit point between the Lumingfei and the Moniach, an incredible order was given, and Manstein's power of words and spirits was forcibly requisitioned!

"It's ······ Cheating, right? He wanted to say

This ability transcends any known rules

The information transmitted from Lu Mingfei on the screen was fully displayed, it was a map of the Bronze City one by one!

"Fingal! Bring up the old map! Find out where you are now! We're lost, lost in the Dragon King's house! Every shout was thunder in Manstein's head, shaking him to the point of slumping in his chair

"Wait, wait, wait! I have to ····· I gotta print! Fingal snarled into the microphone in the computer-laden office of the campus news network

The sleepy paparazzi around him were waiting to get the news back from China on the Internet in a timely manner

"Print! Find the slides! Print it for me! Fingal jumped to his feet in the middle of the computer

The paparazzi used the speed and professionalism of a journalist to quickly hand over two printed, transparent slides to Fingal. Fingal stacked the two pieces together and held them up close to the light.

"Fingal, why are you on the channel?" Caesar asked loudly, "You trespassed into the secret channel, which is against the school rules!" ”

"Take a break, 3rd grade! If I don't invade the channel, the woman you like will have to be buried with my Senior Brother Ye Yu! I hope they don't fall in love~" Fingal was uncharacteristically tough

Caesar immediately shut up

"Forget the school rules! Find out the location! Fingal, your magic machine is a perfect score, you're fine! Professor Guderian's voice appeared in the channel, and the old guy was jumping on his feet like Fingal in the library's control room, as if he had a spring on his foot.

"Shut up! I'm watching, watching, watching! Fingal was covered in a cold sweat.

"Speed up again!" Caesar accessed again, "Professor Manstein is reaching his limit. ”

"Roger!" Fingal gritted his teeth, his face hideous, "Listen, waste wood! Where you are now, it's a circular passage about 2 meters in diameter, and you've just passed through a sluice gate, and there were a lot of wheels before, right? ”

"That's right!"

"I have analyzed it, according to the principle of magic mechanics, the operation of the Bronze City is no different from the previous time, but the direction of operation is reversed. In the introduction to your alchemy chemistry class, the symbol of alchemy is the pentagram, and in ancient times, the sorcerers held the ritual of 'summoning fire', drawing the pentagram from the top to the bottom right, and conversely drawing the pentagram from the bottom right to the top, which is the 'expulsion of fire'. The current mode of operation of the Bronze City should be the latter, the way of self-destruction. ”

"Is it class time?" Lu Mingfei screamed, "Senior brother, you have to be clear-headed!" ”

"I'm telling you how it works to make you believe me! If this city continues to operate, it will be completely finished, and it must be escaped as soon as possible! Going down ahead, there will be a square well, it will shrink and disappear in a few minutes, that's your way! I'll tell you about the next step! Fingal sat down in front of the computer and pressed the keyboard, "Norma's support is required····· Damn, I only have 'F' clearance! ”

"With mine," Guderian's voice said, "I have 'B' clearance, my password is ·····"

"No, you don't! I'm accessing with 'A' level clearance! ”

"You····· It's hacking our system, right? Guderian said

"At the critical moment, black is not black and white····· As long as it works! Fingal pressed enter, and the screen changed rapidly, and the "A" level access permission, the database was open, the computing resources were prioritized, the bandwidth exploded, and only the special function group authorized for the "A" level appeared in the list of "F" class functions that he could only check and order

"Norma, it's up to you." Fingal gasped

"I will pause all other calculations and prioritize the calculations of Bronze City to provide timely information." Norma's voice was faint, "Trust me, I'm a good GPS." ”

Ye Yu and Nuo Nuo were struggling in the rapids, moving forward at full speed

Every passage and space they passed through was changing, huge bronze parts rubbing against each other, making a "click" sound, heavy gates, towering bronze walls, huge gears, and thick hinges running around them, they were like three small fish fry thrown into a huge machine

"Wait a minute in front, wait a minute, and in a minute there will be a passage open on your right."

"Accelerate forward, the exit ahead will disappear in twenty seconds."

"Turn to the left and avoid the gate ahead!"

Norma's order came from the Academy's headquarters, half a world away. Once the map was obtained, the supercomputer was incredibly efficient, with every command being clear and accurate. If she makes the slightest mistake, Lu Mingfei and Nuno may be squashed

"You're about to reach the bottom of the Bronze City, where you'll find the exit, but in thirty seconds, the Bronze City will be completely locked up!" Norma said

Where is the exit? Lu Mingfei looked around

Surrounded on all sides by bronze walls, it was a square space, filled with water, and their access had been sealed, and the walls rumbled and shook

"There." Nono pointed not far away, and his voice was a little strange

"Yes, it was here last time" Ye Yu looked at the fragments of the diving suit floating in the water, and was silent and did not speak

"Last time, Ye Sheng and Jiu De Ya Ji and" Nuo Nuo glanced at Ye Yu, "They came here, but the oxygen was not enough, barely enough for two people to breathe, and in fact, it was only Ye Sheng and Jiu De Ya Ji who ran to the boat in the end, Ye Yu appeared after the dragon servant appeared and fought with him"

"At that time, everyone saw the marks left by the penetrating wound in his diving suit, but he was not hurt" Nono hesitated, "There is no oxygen tank, and a dragon fights underwater"

"In the end, Ye Sheng and Jiu De Aki wrote a fact in the report that is hard to believe"

"Ordering the living spirit, you need a dragon bloodline with extremely high purity, the 'key' is an example, Lu Mingfei is the second example, if the purity of the bloodline is not enough····· It is also possible to sacrifice a large amount of blood, and the consequence is to die of blood loss. Nono whispered, "This method of opening the Dragon Clan's secret palace has been documented before, and it is forbidden in the academy's operation manual. Forced use of bloodlines at the cost of great sacrifices······ In the Middle Ages, this technique gave birth to black magic. ”

"There's nothing to say, think about how to open the door" Ye Yu waved his hand indifferently

"Actually, my bloodline is enough," Ye Yu thought without any waves in his heart

"That's right." Lu Mingfei sighed softly

"Ye Yu Lu Ming is not Chen Motong, get out quickly! Get out quickly! There are only twenty seconds left! Norma's voice rang in the headphones

Lu Mingfei suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when he looked up, he suddenly found that the beam of the spotlight was not far away. He suddenly understood that the spotlight was not far from because the water had become muddy, but on the top of their heads, the huge bronze wall was silently pressing down, like a super water press!

"Quick! Open the door! Nono shouted.

Lu Mingfei squeezed his fingers desperately, trying to squeeze a drop of blood into the living spirit's mouth. But he couldn't squeeze it out, and the hand was bound to the wrist, and it had been soaked in the water for too long, and it was as pale as a dead man's hand. Lu Mingfei took out the diving knife, cut off the entire glove, grabbed his fingers and squeezed it desperately, but only squeezed out a few drops of blood. But his hands were shaking, and the blood beads immediately turned into silk and drifted away when they entered the water, and they couldn't enter the mouth of the living soul at all

The bronze wall above his head had been pressed to a height of just over a meter, and Ye Yu was holding Nuo Nuo and leaning against the corner, leaving enough space for Lu Mingfei, but in a few seconds they would be crushed into pulp

"Cut your fingers!" The voice came from Nuo Nuo, who was lying on Ye Yu's body

"Good····· Good ·····" Lu Mingfei held the knife close to his fingers

After all, he was going to cut his fingers, and he was not sure at all about the next knife, Lu Mingfei cut twice in a row, leaving two small cuts, and there was still no blood gushing out.

What about cutting the other hand? But then he had to tie his wrists so that the oxygen would not leak, and his oxygen would not be enough for long.

"Calming ·····" He chattered repeatedly, and the hand holding the knife was still shaking

"Don't be afraid!" Ye Yu tightened his hands again, the pressure from the top of his head was even greater, as if he wanted to press Nuo Nuo into his body, compared to the soft flesh at the beginning, now it is a real flesh and bone connection, Ye Yu can clearly feel every muscle movement of Nuo Nuo, her rapid breathing makes Ye Yu try hard to give her a sense of security

In the light, Reino turned his head and stared at Ye Yu tightly, Ye Yu could feel a trace of trance in her eyes

Like, just like when she was a child, Nuo Nuo deliberately jumped into the water, and Ye Yu had no choice but to save her, but the little girl who was a little annoying at the beginning became... The red-haired shrine maiden that people like, the little girl who is skinny and has no flesh feeling, is now almost mature

Ye Yu thought about it, his eyes burst out with a bright blue, and the mark on his neck began to try to block this self-destructive process, but it was difficult to succeed

Nuo Nuo's eyes seemed to be even more confused, and in a trance, Nuo Nuo hugged Ye Yu in turn

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid......" Lu Mingfei wanted to change his posture slightly, but as soon as he straightened his waist, his head hit the bronze wall above

There was only less than a meter left in height, and the small space made people feel suffocated, as if lying in a coffin looking at the cover plate above, Lu Mingfei shuddered, his eyes turned black, and the diving knife slipped from his hand

Perhaps it was the reason for the imminent collapse, Ye Yu initiated his perception through the imprint, and unexpectedly was not hindered, his consciousness soon spread along the Bronze City, and the consciousness came to the core of the Bronze City, and his mind wrapped his spatial power to channel into it, intending to control

The Bronze City collapsed faster, and a huge hole appeared in the originally intact and impeccable alchemy field, and at this time, another force began to invade the alchemy array at the core of the Bronze City

There was a trace of stagnation in the collapsed Bronze City, and then something unexpected happened to Ye Yu, and his endless stream of spatial power poured into this alchemy array uncontrollably

It was dark in front of him, Ye Yu almost fainted, feeling his residual spatial power and couldn't help but smile bitterly, it would take at least half a year to recover this time

The bronze wall above his head seemed to be a little slower in Ye Yu's eyes, and Ye Yu was secretly discouraged

Sure enough, can't the power of the dragon king directly confront it by itself?

Nuo Nuo came back to his senses, and in Ye Yu's eyes, she seemed to have a lot more things in her eyes, and he was very sure that these 'things' were just a little sprout

It has now grown into a large tree

"Hurry up! Pick up the knife! Nono kicked him with her foot.

"It's still so barbaric at this time? Still kicking me? Lu Mingfei thought, "I'm going to die." ”

He pounced to pick up the knife, turned his head to look at Nono, and froze. Nuo Nuo lay on Ye Yu lying on the ground, Ye Yu used his feet and back in a triangle to support the sinking bronze wall, Ye Yu hugged Nuo Nuo's waist tightly, and Nuo Nuo used his back to press tightly against the bronze wall behind

"Quick, don't think about anything, just ask for a drop of your blood." Nono's voice was calm

"I'm sure you can," Ye Yu didn't look at him

Is it necessary to be so touching? looks like the head of the eldest sister and the eldest brother, as if you can't hold me back.

Lu Mingfei squeezed his fingers vigorously, and thoughts were spinning in his mind at high speed, as if he heard Nuono's bones cracking

He remembered the old cartoon "The Extraordinary Princess Ciri" he had seen before, in which the heroine was a violent woman, as long as she pulled out her sword and shouted "Give me strength", she would immediately transform, wearing a miniskirt, riding a white horse with long wings, and her thin arms seemed to be full of strength, even if a mountain pressed down by her

But Nuo Nuo is not Xi Rui, she doesn't even have the ability to speak, the little witch is about to run out of oil, and even with the strong Ye Yu, the two of them can't hold it anymore

"it!" Lu Mingfei suddenly felt a feeling of "evil is born on the side of the guts" in his heart

He violently tore the hemostatic bandage on his wrist, the deadly bandage, like the doctor tied to his arm when he was volunteering to donate blood, locked the blood, and also locked the precious oxygen in the water

Blood rushed down the veins to his fingertips, countless bubbles rushed out of the diving suit, and the icy water poured into Lu Mingfei's mouth

Lu Mingfei slapped his hand on the living spirit's face fiercely, as if smacking him in the mouth

The oxygen pressure was rapidly decreasing, the dissolved high-pressure gases in his blood were starting to overflow, his brain was congested, his eyes were pitch black, and his hands were waving in an attempt to grasp something that would make him feel safe.

In the midst of the countless bubbles, someone held him tightly

The exclamations of Lu Mingfei echoed in the front compartment of Moniach, and Manstein's body shook and opened his eyes

"Rescue... Oxygen leakage ·····" The last came Nono's voice, from Manstein's mouth

Manstein exhausted the last of his energy and fainted
