"This damn Jiaha!" I stood outside the door and yelled, "Could it be that the deepest secret is his living room?" ā
"I don't think Jiaha would have designed the bottom secret base to be a living room." Eagle comforted me, "Aren't there still three rooms?" Just open it and take a look. ā
"Alright then!" I reluctantly walked to the next room, but Jaha struck my confidence again. The third room is the study, and there is nothing related to research, the whole bookshelf is full of miscellaneous books, I am relatively easy to believe that this is a rural recreation room, and I don't believe it if you want to say that this is the study of a university scholar who killed me.
Before I could go to the next door, Red Moon had already rushed to the next door and stomped open the door, and at the same time, True Red also opened the last door. The room that Red Moon opened was the kitchen, which had some fresh vegetables in it. If it's not the freshness magic here, it must be that the owner hasn't been gone for long. The room opened by True Red was even more hateful than the previous ones, and the clothes and shoes in the room were completely a cloakroom.
"Isn't this the base of Jaha?" Red Moon walked back to the middle hall and asked suspiciously.
Zhenhong shook her head and said, "It seems that this place was indeed a real yĆ n room, but this is also too strange, the bottom secret area only has this set of real yĆ n instruments that are completely unclear about the usefulness of the real yĆ n room." ā
They all walked to the middle and sat there thinking, and Joan of Arc went from room to room, but the result was still the same.
A possibility occurred to me. "Do you think it's possible that there is a secret base down there, and this is just a fake base used to cover up the real base?"
"I can't rule it out, but we don't know the entrance!" Eagle Road.
Hongyue immediately said, "If there really is a lower secret room, then there must be an entrance hidden in these five rooms." ā
"So what are you waiting for? One person went in and rummaged through. The gold coin urged anxiously.
"Joan of Arc has already flipped through it, and it's really long overdue to find out." The eagle blocks the action of the gold coin.
I shook my head: "Hongyue is right, if there really is a secret room here, there will definitely be an entrance to these five rooms. Just because Joan of Arc didn't find it doesn't mean that it didn't, and I think it's necessary to look through it. ā
"Then go your separate ways." The gold coin turned around and was about to run.
"Wait." I stopped the gold coins. "There's no point in looking around, these five rooms are also exquisite, usually the secret room will be set up in the study, but a person like Jiaha who can set up a lower secret room in the secret base is not the kind of person who will play cards according to common sense at all. So the study can be given up directly. Although the toilet is also relatively special, it is too special, unless Jiaha is a pervert, the passage will not be in the toilet. The rest of the kitchen looks like someone has been using it, which means it's a real kitchen, so there shouldn't be an access. The cloakroom is large and has a lot of clutter, and most people may think that the secret passage will be here. But on the contrary, this is the most unlikely place, because it has too much clutter to form obvious traces of the opening and closing channels, so it cannot be installed in the cloakroom. ā
"Isn't there only one room left?" Gold Coin asked.
"If nothing else, the passage is in the bedroom."
"Then I'll go check it out first." The gold coin rushed into the bedroom, and a few of us followed.
Watch the gold coins in the room, knocking and tapping. We also don't think this room is very suitable for hiding passages. Joan of Arc said: "It's unlikely that the passage is here, right?" The whole room is less than twenty pings, and there is nothing except this stone bed, and if you set up a passage here, there will be nothing to block it! ā
"I think this bed is full of suspicions." The gold coin circled around the bed in the middle of the room a few times before saying, "Shall we open it and take a look?" ā
"There's no need to be that troublesome." I'll take it with me. The whole bed was smashed to pieces at once. "Try to see if there's a mezzanine underneath the floor."
True Red walked over and crouched down and carefully tapped the ground, but the echo was solid underneath the reality. "It looks like this place isn't the entrance to the passage, we probably got the wrong room. Ziri, are your inferences reliable? ā
"This ......!" I was also a little unconfident when I was asked by True Red.
The gold coin suddenly said: "I suddenly remembered, my previous profession was a thief!" Entered our guild, the conditions are too good, forget the old business! ā
"That's right! Aren't you a thief? You should have learned Scout magic before! ā
"That's why I said I forgot my old job!" As he spoke, Jin Coin stretched out a hand and began to activate the skill: "Secret Path Reconnaissance Technique." ā
As soon as the gold coin skills were used, we started looking around. But I didn't see anything. Joan of Arc suddenly exclaimed, "Look at it." ā
We looked up together, and saw a white circle of light appear in the middle of the overhead, which was the effect of the reconnaissance technique.
Hongyue looked at the ceiling and sighed: "The passage is actually on the ceiling, no wonder I can't find it!" ā
"The passage has been found, but where is the activation mechanism?" True Red asked.
Gold activates the skill again: "Trap Detection." ā
One of the shards of the bed we had just broken was a gem that shone red, and the gold coin went over to check the gem. She seemed to have done something to the gem, and then the room shook suddenly, and a circular area above her head began to spin aside; Super drop. It was a spiral staircase, slowly descending to the ground.
"It's actually a remote control switch!" The gold coin showed us the gems. "It's similar to our guild's crystal detonator."
"Hurry up and see what's up, right?" Red Moon was the first to walk up the stairs and urged us to hurry up.
This staircase is not very long. It was over with only five stories in height. At the top of the staircase was a huge hall, a garbage dump, but I knew that the humble things were all very precious treasures.
The staircase we ascended was located at a corner of the square hall, and on the two adjacent walls of the staircase were rows of bookshelves, which were clearly displayed as high-level research materials. There was also a large table next to the stairs with a mess of papers. There are quite a few drawing tools on the side of the table, which is probably Jiaha's workbench. In the distance, there are a bunch of semi-finished machines scattered on the ground, some of which can already be seen, while others are completely unrecognizable. A little further afield, there are some tools for processing materials. It seems that there is also a large equipment such as a furnace. Next to these devices are piles of various materials, many of which are metal.
"I knew there was definitely a secret base here." As soon as the gold coin came up, it ran straight towards the materials, probably seeing the gems inside.
I don't have much interest in gemstones, what really cares me about is the paper full of symbols. I rushed to the edge of the big table, took away the tools, and I happily took the drawings of the table and looked at them. The lines on the paper seemed familiar, and I was sure it was something I had seen, but I couldn't remember it for a while.
I was wondering what that drawing was all about. Red Moon suddenly screamed excitedly. "Purple Sun, Eagle, come and see this."
"What did you find?" The eagle and I hurried over.
Red Moon handed me the book, and I carefully took it and looked at the cover. But there was nothing on the cover, so I had to open it and read it. "Magic Doll Research Codex! Oh, my God! This is Jiaha's research record! ā
"Turn the third page and see." Red Moon said to me with a smile.
I quickly turned to the third page, and I saw the big headline at the top of the page. "The solution to the non-renewable and long-term use of the puppet power source. No way? Does this mean that it is not possible to replace the magic crystal with other energy sources? ā
"Probably!" Hongyue smiled and said, "How much do you think this book is worth?" ā
"If it's really a low-cost renewable energy solution that can be realized, then the book is definitely worth more than a billion crystal coins."
After hearing what I had just said, the gold coin ran back from the other side of the hall at a speed of 100 meters. "What book is so valuable?"
"This one." I shook the book in my hand.
"Let me see." The gold coin reached out and wanted to take it.
With a flick of my hand, the book entered my phoenix space. "This book is so precious, I'll show it to you when I go back and make a copy."
"Humph! Stingy. "After saying that, the gold coin bypassed me and ran to the bookshelf and dragged the book down." It's definitely a good thing that this bag is so tight. ā
The gold coin was a book with a shell. The outer layer of the book seems to have been polished out of some animal bone, and there are metal parts underneath the bones, and the paper inside is tightly protected by two shells. The opening of the book is tightly locked by five sets of fixed locks, and it is impossible to open the book safely without a key.
Hongyue looked at the book that the gold coin was holding and immediately said, "This seems to be indeed precious, but the problem is that this one seems to need a key." ā
"Let me try and find out." The gold coin used the lockpicking skill, and as a result, the thing didn't respond at all. Jin Coin said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I haven't practiced for a long time, and my skills are unfamiliar!" ā
"Give it to me!" True Red brushed the book over as she raised her hand at us. Red somewhere she got her hands on a strangely shaped badge, and she taped it to the mechanism on the front of the book, only to hear the click of the lock on the page.
"Let's see what's in there?" The gold coin urged.
True Red turned the first page and read: "Daily Notes." ā
"Diary?" Red Moon Spear flipped through the book, flipped a few pages, and suddenly began to read. With the above evidence, the idea that God created the world does not seem to hold water, and I began to doubt the reality of God. Now it is very necessary to continue research, but the temple does not allow this kind of thing to continue, my research has threatened their fundamental interests, and it seems that I must do everything I can to divert it. Hongyue turned a few more pages and suddenly read it again: "After argumentation, the identity of the creator is not unique, and God evolved from us low-level creatures, this research conclusion even shocked me, but Norein's completion has already explained a qiÄ." If I continue to admit the status of God now, then how should I see myself, but if I don't admit those self-defeating guys, I probably won't be able to continue to exist in this world. My life doesn't matter, but Noreen ......! What should I do? "If you like this book, please go to the Liancheng Book League and vote for me.
"Who's Noreen?" Joan of Arc asked.
"I don't have much." Hongyue shook her head: "But looking at what the diary says, this Noreen is probably a lifeform made by Jiaha. ā
"You're talking about humanoids?" Joan of Arc asked worriedly.
"Probably." Red Moon looked at Joan of Arc and asked strangely, "Are you so afraid of artificial creatures?" How about this expression? ā
Joan of Arc immediately said: "Of course I'm afraid, if you think about those monsters covered in slime and rotten flesh, it makes me feel disgusting when I think about it, I'm most afraid of this kind of thing." ā
"Artificial creatures aren't necessarily disgusting." Red Moon explained, "At least we know that it's not a very beautiful artificial creature. We have artificial creatures in our guild, and they're not only beautiful but also powerful. ā
"Who are you? Why did you break into my home? A crisp, soft voice suddenly appeared at the end of the hall. We've been studying the materials just now, and we didn't even notice that there was a door on the other side of the hall.
The sudden sound drew our attention, and at the door across the hall stood a girl who looked to be only eighteen years old. This girl is very beautiful, and she is a beauty of Bingbing's type. It's very pure, and all the evil thoughts of people disappear automatically at a glance. Although the girl is very beautiful, her costume is really a little strange. The girl was wearing a mage robe, but it was obviously too big for her. What's even more outrageous is that her robe has no sleeves, it's the first time I've seen such a mage robe, if it weren't for the magic badge shining with gold on the robe that is very dazzling, I would never have recognized this as a mage robe.
The girl saw that we were all looking at her without speaking, so she asked again. "Why didn't you break into my house without going through the passage?"
"This is your home?" I finally recovered from the shock. "Isn't this the research base of Jiaha ** Division?"
After I finished speaking, I saw the girl's figure suddenly disappear in place, barely at any interval, and a hand on my shoulder as she disappeared from our sight. I was surprised and jumped backwards more than three meters before I realized that the girl had appeared in front of me, and she was standing more than twenty meters away. It's in front of me so quickly, it's too scary, isn't it?
"You know my dad?" The girl asked me excitedly.
"Your dad?" All of us are falling out of our eyes. "You wait first. When did Jiaha get married? ā
"Oh, sorry, I didn't make it clear. I'm not a father's child, no. No, I made it herself, but I'm not his descendant. I mean I'm not his genetic descendant, I made it by him. ā
Red Moon smacked me with her arm, and as soon as I turned around, she pointed to the diary, and I immediately understood. "Are you the artificial life Noreen that Jiaha made?"
"Yes, I'm Noreen." The girl looked at me with a smile. "You even know my name, so you know your father very well. Do you know where your father is now? I missed him very much, but when my father left, he asked me to stay and take care of the family. So I didn't dare go out to him. Do you know where he is? Please bring me a message saying that I miss him, so let him come back soon. ā
"No, no, no, I think you're mistaken." I hastened to explain to her. I really can't lie in the face of this super innocent face. Any stain I had in front of her pure white paper would be magnified and highlighted, so I felt that there was no way to lie in front of her. "We're not your father's friends, and we haven't actually met Jiaha at all, but we can't say that we're completely related to Jiaha. Do you know the disciples of Master Jiaha**? ā
"That's what you say? My father had many disciples. ā
"Lund."
"I know, my father said that he was the most serious of all the disciples, but he was not talented."
I laughed and said, "Lund is helping me right now, and he used to brag to us that his mentor was the greatest ** teacher. ā
"It's not a boast, my father is the greatest ** teacher." Noreen said seriously.
"Yes, the greatest." I smiled and said, "We heard from Lund about how great Master Jiaha is, so we think it would be a waste of talent for a talent like him not to lead a strong research team, so we came to him to ask him to join us, but now it seems that he is not at home!" You don't seem to know where he's going, do you? ā
Noreen nodded: "Before my father went out, he just said that he would go for a long, long time, and that he wanted me to be at home alone to take care of the house." ā
"Then do you know how long Master Jiaha has been gone?" Red Moon asked.
Noreen immediately replied, "Nine hundred and thirty-seven thousand three hundred and twenty-four hours and twenty-four minutes and fifteen seconds." ā
We were stunned by the number for a moment, and then we reacted. "Isn't that more than a hundred years old?"
"You? Oh, I know, is it the unit of time that is three hundred and sixty-five days as a round? According to this algorithm for more than 100 years. ā
"And how old are you?" Gold Coin asked, looking at Noreen.
Noreen immediately replied with a smile, "According to the unit of time you are used to, I have been born for two hundred and seventy-four years and three months. ā
"Dizzy! Super old grandma! "The gold coin almost didn't faint.
It occurred to me that I didn't seem to have fully figured out the situation with Noreen. "You were made by your father, so what kind of creature are you?"
"I'm a puppet."
"Puppets?" This time it was a few of us who asked together.
Red Moon grabbed Noreen's arm and gently pinched it a few times, only to find that the muscles were elastic and her body temperature was normal. "Are you sure you're really a puppet?"
"yes!" Noreen put on that super innocent smile again, how can we not connect the young and lovely beautiful girl in front of us with the impression of a three-meter-tall horror puppet like a humanoid tank.
The gold coin asked, "Can you prove it?" ā
"Proof what?"
"You're a puppet."
"Is that okay?" Noreen turned, her clothes behind her back were almost rotten, and now the robe was completely open-backed. I saw that two pieces of skin on her back suddenly popped up. Then two metal wings popped out of it. The wings, which were made entirely of metal, were larger than my wings when unfolded, and the shiny metallic wings had many blade-like metal feathers on them, making them a murder weapon.
"Are you really a puppet?" Red Moon asked, still not entirely convinced.
"Isn't that proof to you? Otherwise, I still have this. Noreen folded her wings and spun back. I saw a strange red symbol suddenly appear on her forehead, and then the position of the symbol actually stretched out. There is a long crystal stone inside, but it doesn't look like a magic crystal, and the magic crystal is usually contained in the body. It shouldn't be in your head! Noreen retrieved the crystal and said to us, "Now believe it, right?" ā
"Believe it, believe it." I nodded and said, "It's incredible, you are so beautiful, the design direction of the puppet is the same as the pursuit of the strongest combat power, and it is unthinkable that Jiaha ** will actually create a female doll like a Barbie doll." ā
Noreen asked curiously, "What is Barbie?" What is a woman? You said that puppets pursue combat effectiveness, and I know that. I'm pretty good too. ā
As soon as Noreen said this, I immediately thought of the situation when she flashed in front of me from twenty meters away, if she had used a weapon to stab me in the neck directly, I would have been killed 100% on the spot, her speed was so fast that it was completely invisible, no matter how high our combat skills were, we couldn't fight so many enemies who were fast as us!
Although I remembered, the gold coin didn't, and she looked Noreen up and down in disbelief. "Can you be strong? I can't really see it. ā
"If you don't believe it, we'll know by comparison." Noreen had an innocent smile on her face. "When I used to train with my dad, he always lost, and then I deliberately let him and he still couldn't win."
"That's because Master Jiaha feels sorry for you, so he deliberately released the water." Jin Coin smiled and said: "I still don't compare with you, it's not good for you to be hurt with such fine skin and tender flesh." ā
"It's okay, I'm sturdy."
"Sturdy? Strange saying, well. Let's try. The gold coin said, "Let you strike first." ā
I smiled and said, "I'd better shout to start." Without waiting for the two of them to react, I waved my hand and said, "Let's go." ā
Goldcoin's smile froze on her face before it was over, as Noreen had appeared behind her back and pressed a metal rod against her neck. Noreen had the smug smile of a child after a win. "You lost, and if I had a knife, your neck would have been cut off."
"Not this time, I'm not ready." The gold coin is starting to play tricks. "You retreat to the wall over there, let's do it all over again, this time let the red moon shout begin."
Noreen was very honest when she arrived, and immediately let go of the gold coin and ran to the opposite side. Red Moon and I had actually seen that the gold coin couldn't win against Noreen, but we didn't stop it, because we wanted to know how fast Noreen was.
This time, the two of them were separated by a thirty-meter-long hall, and there were many machine parts in the middle as obstacles. Red Moon first asked both parties if they were ready, and only waved her arm after receiving an affirmative answer. Almost as soon as Red Moon's arm fell, Noreen disappeared in place again, and the next second she reappeared behind the gold coin, still using an iron rod like a rolling pin across the gold coin's neck.
"How is this possible?" The gold coin can't stand this blow a little. "How did you get here so far?"
"Running here!" Noreen had a look on her face that mattered.
Ying said in a deep voice: "It's such a terrifying speed, with this agility, even those gods and immortals in Heavenly Court are likely to be killed by Qingyi, which is almost like teleportation." ā
"I'm still strong."
"Sturdy? That means it has a lot of defense, right? I asked.
"Yes." Noreen said: "My bone material was synthesized by my father for a long time, but it is said that the material is too rare, so there is no way to help me make a sister or brother or anything, but I am really strong, and I am not afraid of general injuries." Although my father's big brothers looked strong, they didn't even beat them, and they were all stupid. ā
"Brother? Do you still have a brother? Red Moon asked in surprise.
I replied in place of Noreen, "She's probably talking about ordinary puppets. ā
"Surprise me! I thought that such an exaggerated puppet could be mass-produced! ā
