Chapter 39: Infiltrating the Mysterious Black Tower
In the evening, Mu Beipan sat on the bed in the dormitory, holding her hands in front of her chest, and beside her was a bunch of crimson crystals that emitted a subtle glow around her, while in her hands she held a crystal nucleus that was obviously much larger than other red crystals.
Mu Bei gently pressed the crystal nucleus in his hand on his chest, and soon, the crystal nucleus gradually emitted a faint light, turning into liquid and slowly merging into her chest, in the round pattern that was bright with crimson hue.
At the center of the eyebrows, the blazing phoenix mark with its wings spread out shines brightly, which is particularly eye-catching.
After a while, the crystal nucleus was exhausted, Mu Bei's red eyes flashed slightly, and the pattern on his chest gradually dissipated, revealing his original fair skin again.
"Sure enough, the energy contained in the core of the sin-level red demon is far from being comparable to the crystal core of the pain-level and nascent-level red demons." The girl muttered to herself, closing her eyes and quietly feeling the flow of energy in her body.
"Soon, I'll be able to see you again......" Mu Bei smiled slightly, his eyes swept over the surrounding spars, and all of them were put away.
Standing in front of the window, the bright moonlight spilled in, clearly reflected on the girl's face, and the red pupils were particularly deep.
"Akatsuki Ki...... It's getting closer and closer......" Mu Bei muttered softly, with her strength at the moment, it was unknown to what extent she would be able to recover when the Akatsuki Era came.
"But even if I regain my peak strength, what can I do?"
"Am I ...... alone?"
Looking over the high-rise buildings and looking in the direction of the core area, Mu Bei recalled what he saw that day, and the existence he faintly felt, and frowned slightly.
"That place, it feels like you can't go wrong......"
"It's there."
Mu Bei packed up the things in the room, put on a simple and light black clothes, slowly pushed open the door, and walked out.
Leave the dormitory building and walk along the path inside the college. There are not too many students walking around in Perthvia at night, except for the inner courtyard students who have classes in the core area, ordinary students are not allowed to run outside in the evening.
Soon, Mu Bei came to the entrance of the core area, and at the brightly lit checkpoint, the guards blocked Mu Bei's way.
"Show proof."
Mu Bei took out the door card, and the guards checked it to make sure that it was a student from the inner courtyard, so he waved his hand and let him go. Mu Bei knew that even the inner courtyard students had to stay in the core area after class time, so what she wanted to do had to be completed as soon as possible.
Following the unmanned path, Mu Bei quickly walked to the familiar warehouse, looking at the electronic door, Mu Bei sighed helplessly, this kind of technological equipment really made her a little powerless.
wanted to take a detour, but after looking for a long time and didn't find a road that could be passed directly, Mu Bei pursed his lips, put on the hood behind the black clothes, slightly covered the subtle light on his eyebrows, and jumped over.
Touch.
With a faint muffled sound, Mu Bei lay on the top of the warehouse, dodging the searchlights that swept by from time to time.
Finding a gap, the black figure flashed across the roof and jumped to the other side of the warehouse.
Feeling a slight heat in his chest, Mu Bei stood firm and raised his head in surprise.
At this moment, she was standing in a courtyard, which was full of strange dead trees, and a huge brazier stand was placed every ten meters or so, and it was burning with flames.
This kind of environment looks extremely strange, but Mu Bei has a sense of relief, and a smile also appears on his pretty face.
"Sure enough, it's you."
Mu Bei walked quietly in the courtyard, suddenly heard a low movement in front of him, and hurriedly squatted behind a dead bush.
A group of soldiers armed with guns and weapons walked past the arch of the courtyard, and when they passed by, they deliberately glanced twice into the courtyard, and when they saw that there was no movement, they walked away in a row.
Call.
Mu Bei sighed softly, if she was found here, it would really be reasonable and unreasonable, not to mention that she had sneaked in at all.
Carefully observing that no one passed by outside the arch, Mu Bei quickly flashed through the stone path and approached his destination.
Hiding in a corner, Mu Bei looked sideways slightly, looking at the gate at the end of the passage, in front of which stood two guards, carrying rifles, leaning on the stone pillar and yawning constantly.
It's no wonder they take it lightly, it's really been so many years, and there has never been an accident, not to mention that there are still many checkpoints and guards outside, so naturally there is no need to be vigilant at all times.
"Lao Zhang, when can we change shifts, can we leave early, I'm a little uncomfortable." At this time, one of the guards suddenly said holding his stomach.
The other guard twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "No, you don't look at what kind of place this is, you have to wait for the fifth group of people to come before you can change shifts, this is military regulation." ”
"If you break it, you will be punished very severely." The man said.
"Oh, then I'll go and make it convenient first, it's really, what is the lifeblood of the North Curtain Continent, the gods are chattering, how can any lifeline be hidden in such a place." The first guard muttered a few words and walked towards the end of the passage, Mu Bei hurriedly took a few steps back and crouched secretly.
The guard had just turned the corner, and had not taken a few steps, when he suddenly saw a black shadow appear in front of him, and before his brain could turn the corner, he was hit hard, and he suddenly lost consciousness.
Gently putting the guard down, Mu Beiliu frowned slightly, peeled off his coat, and put it on the outside of his black clothes.
In front of the gate, another guard was leaning against the pillar in a daze, and suddenly saw a figure wearing a military uniform and carrying a rifle at the end of the passage walking over with his head down, thinking it was his comrade-in-arms, and asked casually without care: "Why did you come back again, and found that there was no goods in your stomach again?" ”
The figure didn't make a sound, and his pace quickened a little.
"Huh?"
Didn't hear a reply, the guard looked over strangely, frowned, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, the person's height was obviously half a head lower than his comrades, his pupils shrank slightly, and he just wanted to make a move, but it was too late.
Mu Bei took a step, stepped forward in an instant, and cut his palm on the side neck of the guard, and the guard rolled his eyes, and fell to the ground directly without humming.
Lying quietly on the door, she didn't hear any movement, not even a slight gasp, Mu Bei's face sank, she didn't believe that there would be no means of defense inside.
Taking two steps back, Mu Bei suddenly jumped, climbed over the wall, looked into the door, and found the wire tightly hooked behind the door, as well as the alarm device connected to the other wall.
"Because the signal and electromagnetic equipment fail, why use this most primitive means......
Fortunately, he didn't push the door directly, Mu Bei glanced at the huge tower standing in the center of the courtyard, landed gently, and slowly walked towards the gate of the tower.
What she didn't know was that at the moment she landed, somewhere in the huge black tower, a person who had been sitting cross-legged for a long time suddenly opened his eyes.
"It's interesting that someone is lurking in...... I'm glad I came here this time, otherwise...... I almost got you on the hook. The statue-like figure sat quietly and whispered.
"I want to see what is sacred."
As Mu Bei approached step by step, the strong feeling became more and more obvious, she covered her already hot chest and gently pushed open the dusty door.
Squeak~
The door was unexpectedly light, and Mu Bei easily pushed it open, rubbing the touch of dead wood in her palm, and she smiled slightly.
However, the next moment, when she saw everything inside the door, her crimson pupils suddenly contracted.
"It's ......"
What caught my eye was a towering copper pillar, straight up, with strange lines spiraling upward, shimmering with a subtle pale golden luster.
The circular road surrounded the copper pillars, and the side of the road leaning against the black tower was actually inlaid with the crystal nucleus that Mu Bei was familiar with, that is, the Red Demon Crystal.
Mu Bei raised her head and looked at the high top of the copper pillar, and she couldn't see anything at a glance, because the copper pillar was too high.
This shocked Mu Bei's heart, because from the outside, the entire Black Tower did not have such a height.
"This ...... How......
