Chapter 234: Torture

"How's it going?"

Facing Lin Tuo's inquiry, Mount Sinai, who was slender and had a serious expression, did not answer immediately, but took two steps back and opened the car door behind him.

Lin Tuo raised his eyebrows, stepped into it, and threw Hathaway in the back seat by the way.

Mount Sinai was in the driver's seat.

When a low roar sounded, and the car headed for the vent not far away, Mount Sinai spoke:

"According to your orders, we have organized a large number of personnel to analyze and sample that spirit life, and found that it itself is a life form with an extremely special structure.

'There is no exact judgment at the moment, but the speculation may be related to the spiritual power of the person, and we even suspect that it is composed of spiritual power and magic power......"

After a pause, Mount Sinai, who was holding the steering wheel, carefully looked at Lin Tuo's expression from the rearview mirror, and said:

"The specific report is available to Ms. Hathaway, and you can read it at any time.

As for the torture of it, it also began to bear fruit, and we tried to use some magic methods to inflict punishment on it.

At first, it was hard-mouthed, but eventually it relented and was willing to communicate with us, but it made a request......"

"It's going to talk to me?" Lin Tuo asked with a calm expression.

"Yes," Mount Sinai said with a strange expression, "it claims to be a spirit lord, demands treatment befitting its status, claims to be willing to make peace, but only wants to talk to the one who defeated it, ...... you."

"Of course, according to our judgment, it is most likely not that tough, but for the sake of caution, I will ask Madame Hathaway to relay its request to you."

Spirit Lord?

Lin Tuo was curious, thought for a while, and said:

"It's all here, so let's see you."

Mount Sinai was not surprised, and while driving, he continued to report on the recent situation, including Ning Li's Ning Meng brothers and sisters, and their work these days.

Not long after, the vehicle stopped at the foot of the mountain, and several people got out of the car and crossed the cordon? All the way to the battlefield of the day.

This has been converted into a research site? Guarded 24 hours a day, but not on the surface? And underground.

When Lin Tuo followed Mount Sinai and flew straight into the vent? After sinking for about a few tens of meters, the next convenience suddenly brightened.

The most eye-catching? It is a huge energy shield to the east of the center of the vent.

It's not a cage, it's bigger than that.

Cast your eyes on the past? Can you see inside is a platform? There are machines, temporary housing, and researchers walking.

"This is a protective shield on the perimeter, which mainly serves as a warning." Mount Sinai said, "There are two more floors inside? A layer of defense and sound? The view is blocked, and the inner layer is the forbidden cage. ”

As he spoke, a rune appeared in the palm of Mount Sinai, opening a gap in the energy shield, and Lin Tuo entered the moment? Suddenly it felt unusually bright.

Seeing Mount Sinai lead people flying in, have some eyes on you? But he quickly moved away again, and there were few people here who knew Lin Tuo.

"This way, please."

Mount Sinai in a black trench coat? Walk into an oval building in the center of the hall.

Walking through the hallway, there is a second layer of magic cover? To get here? There are only a handful of them? Seeing Mount Sinai coming, they left in tacit agreement.

Standing outside the second-layer magic cover, you can already see the much smaller forbidden cage inside, as well as the dim one-eyed giant floating in it.

"It doesn't seem to notice the arrival of you and me." Lin Tuo glanced at it a few times and said.

Mount Sinai explains: "The second floor opens up a one-sided view, so you can't see the outside from the inside, so do you want to enter immediately? ”

"Yes."

Seeing Lin Tuo nodding, she handed over a small remote control in her hand and briefly explained how to use it:

"If it doesn't cooperate, you can use this to punish it. Once you enter the second floor, your conversation with it will not come out. ”

Lin Tuo glanced at her, didn't say anything, took it with a smile, nodded and said:

"Good."

Mount Sinai leaned slightly, then stepped back, leaving the place in a short time.

"Tsk, I have to say that I deserve to work in a government department, and I know that I can avoid ...... when talking to leaders," Hathaway was amazed.

Lin Tuo glanced at her, threw her on the ground with his hand:

"Get out of here, you go out too."

"I don't!" Hathaway crossed her waist, and as soon as she said two words, she kicked Lin Tuo away, and rolled out of the building with a scream.

Comfortable!

With a sigh, Lin Tuo stepped through the second-layer magic barrier.

At the moment he entered, in the cage, the originally confused one-eyed giant suddenly woke up!

It still retains its original form, except that its body is translucent, and it is only the size of a normal person, exuding a weak aura.

"It's you!"

Seeing Lin Tuo, it screamed, and subconsciously floated backwards, crashing into the cage, and some areas suddenly lit up, emitting a roar like the collision of gold and iron.

"I heard you wanted to see me?" Lin Tuo looked at the other party with a flat expression and said, "It seems that you are willing to cooperate." ”

"I'm willing to tell what I know," the Cyclops calmed down at this point, trying to show the majesty of the "lord" through the barrier of the closed cage, "but it comes at a price. ”

"The price?"

"Yes, when you know the information you want, let me go back to the spirit world."

Lin Tuo glanced at it in surprise, and said with a smile:

"Why do you think I'm going to promise you?"

The one-eyed giant seemed to have prepared his words, the dim figure floated, and a languid eye stared at Lin Tuo:

"First of all, I'm weak enough now, and you're strong enough that even if I let go, I can't do any harm to your world, I just want to return to the spirit realm.

Second, since you have designed to arrest me, it means that the information I know is valuable, and you will get nothing by killing me. ”

"That's it?" Lin Tuo said curiously:

"If I don't agree, continue to torture you, I'm really curious how long you can last."

Hearing the word torture, the one-eyed giant's illusory body trembled, obviously a little frightened, but still said seriously:

"I'm already in the weakest state right now.

If I continue to use the torture a few more times, it will affect my origin, and this may lead to the loss of my own memory.

Besides, if I really can't live, at least I have the ability to commit suicide. ”

Lin Tuo was silent and said:

"But I can still pretend to promise you, trick you into telling you what I want, and then kill you...... You should know that I can't let you go first. ”

"Of course I know," said the Cyclops, who seemed to be a little more perennial when he heard this, "but the value that you can gain by letting go of me is greater." ”

As he spoke, it seemed to bend its back:

"I am the Lord of the Spirit Realm, and I know that those of you who live in the material world need power from the Spirit Realm, and as long as you let me go, I can pay a certain ransom.

It can even help you fix that candle completely...... If it's not completely damaged.

Although I don't know what the so-called god behind you is, now that you know the existence of the spirit world, you should understand that cooperating with a lord can completely offset some of the dangers. ”

'No...... I don't understand. ’

Lin Tuo muttered in his heart, and immediately became more and more vigilant, and his doubts suddenly appeared, but his face was calm and there were no waves.

There was silence for a long time before he spoke:

"Whether or not you cooperate depends on whether the information you provide satisfies me."

"Of course."

The Cyclops seemed relieved, in fact, it didn't have certain expectations for the deal, but it felt like it could at least struggle a little more than the mortal ending.

In other words, the conversation with Lin Tuo was a gamble, the bet was Lin Tuo's greed, as long as he coveted the greater good, then he had hope of survival.

Thinking of this, the one-eyed giant seemed to calm down a little and said:

"So, what do you want to know from me?"

Lin Tuo thought for a moment and said:

"Let's start with your so-called lordship.

I'm curious about what you are in the spirit world and in what state you exist.

Well, perhaps I should ask first, what is the spiritual world in your understanding, and what is its relationship with the physical world? ”

He did not try to hide his "ignorance".

Not only is there no outsider here, but also because as long as he asks, it is impossible to hide it.

The one-eyed giant's expression really changed, and he was obviously more relaxed:

"It seems that you really don't know much about us."

Seeing Lin Tuo raise his eyebrows, the Spirit Lord trembled in his heart, and hurriedly restrained his "arrogant" mood, showed humility as much as possible, and said:

"Then I'll explain it to you......"

As it spoke, it groaned, as if sorting out its thoughts:

"First of all, the spiritual realm, well, that's what you're called, and I'll refer to it as such.

For us, the spirit world is the world we live in, no, compared to the world in which real, tangible matter is the carrier, the spirit world can hardly even be called a 'world', its interior is chaotic and chaotic.

It has no boundaries and coexists with the universe of the material world.

It does not have time, or in other words, even those of us who are born in the spirit realm have difficulty accurately grasping the existence of 'time'.

It is only by occasionally coming into contact with the material world and perceiving its changes that one has the perception of the passage of time......"

"Ahem, that seems too complicated to say, and I don't really know much about it.

I know the spiritual realm what you humans know about everything in the universe...... Well, only a small part of the mystery is understood, and many more mysteries are still unknown. ”

"As for the relationship between the spiritual and physical worlds, I prefer to call it interconnectedness, or overlap, rather than coexistence.

Most of the time, the two worlds are unable to perceive each other's existence, and only in the occasional gap will there be interconnected......

This is not the communion of magic, but the communion of life.

For example, a spiritual lord like me came over, or a higher intelligent life such as a human being entered our world. ”

Lin Tuo suddenly interrupted it:

"Humans have entered your world? Is it in which way? ”

"As far as I know, there are three ways, but not necessarily just three," explains the cyclops:

"First, some extremely powerful spiritually powerful people, such as Ning Li, can open up a channel into the spiritual world in the consciousness space, so as to enter."

"Second, I'm not entirely sure, but it should be true, that is, after the death of your beings in the material world, their souls, or spiritual power aggregates, will automatically enter the spirit world."

"Thirdly, some civilizations will enter directly through special methods, yes, carrying real substances, with flesh and blood bodies. Of course, there are very few civilizations that can do this, and often only use the spirit world to make interstellar jumps. ”

"Interstellar jumping?" Lin Tuo's eyes moved slightly, and he interrupted, setting off a storm in his heart.
