……

In the hall, Xiao Lao pushed the door and walked in, he was still leisurely drinking tea in his cabin, but an idea came to his mind while he was enjoying it.

"Lord Zonghengxing, please hurry to Lord Zhuang Xuan's office." The words were short, but they made Xiao Lao frown for a while, not because of anything else, but because of the two words used in this discourse, "Hurry up".

It is not Zhuang Lao who transmits this information to Xiao Lao, but it must be Zhuang Lao's person, and generally Zhuang Lao will find Xiao Lao through face-to-face methods, and rarely have remote dialogues, let alone this kind of spiritual dialogue through "reason".

And Zhuang Lao generally looks for Xiao Lao is nothing more than a few things, eating, drinking tea and chatting, not to mention using words like "quick arrival". And today, when it is so abnormal, it is most likely that something big has happened.

Pushed open the door and walked to Zhuang Lao's office, at this time, there was not only Zhuang Lao in the office, but there were several other people standing beside him, namely Gao Han, Ning Xinyan, Su Bing'er and Feng Ling.

said that he was standing, but in fact, only Gao Han Su Bing'er and Ning Xinyan were really standing, and Feng Ling fell to the ground on one knee, bowing his head and saying nothing.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Lao instantly understood what was going on, he stepped forward and asked a little anxiously, "What happened to that kid in Moji?" ”

Zhuang Lao looked at Xiao Lao, his eyes showed a trace of worry and complexity, and then nodded with some difficulty.

Xiao Lao's eyes froze, he took a deep breath, and then asked, "Is he still alive?" ”

"I don't know, but it should still be alive, Qianyi, don't blame them, there was an unexpected accident on this mission, anyway, let the children tell you what happened."

Ning Xinyan and Zhuang Lao glanced at each other, turned to face Xiao Lao, and then recounted what they had told Zhuang Lao before about what happened to them in the Erwin world.

"I didn't expect that to happen...... Those extraterrestrial life forms are really everywhere. ”

Just as Xiao Lao was contemplating his eyebrows, Gao Han suddenly stepped forward, came to Xiao Lao and said, "I'm sorry Xiao Lao, we failed to protect Brother Ink Marks!" But this matter has nothing to do with Bing'er's sister and eldest sister, I am dragging the team back, if you want to be punished, punish me! ”

At this time, Ning Xinyan also stepped forward, pushed Gao Han behind, and said: "Gao Han, shut up, I am the captain of the team, and I am the one who made the final decision, and all the responsibility is on me, and I should be punished." ”

"Eldest sister's head ......" Gao Han glanced at Ning Xinyan, hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward, "No, it's still my problem, please punish me." ”

Gao Han and Ning Xinyan both knew that Chen Mochen was the only disciple of Xiao Lao, and he was also the only junior of Xiao Lao, and he was also Xiao Lao's good friend. And now because of the choice of himself and others, Chen Mochen disappeared, even if it was a decision made by everyone together at that time, but for Xiao Lao, the root cause of Chen Mochen's disappearance is still himself. Such thoughts came to the minds of both of them at the same time.

At this time, Feng Ling, who was kneeling on one knee, also said: "The responsibility for this time is on me, please don't punish them, it was my poor protection that led to such a result." ”

"That's enough." Xiao Lao suddenly interrupted Feng Ling's words, turned his back, and said in a deep voice, "Don't fight about whose fault it is

Now, I'm not an old fool, I can tell the difference between black and white. ”

After that, Xiao Lao flashed and disappeared. Zhuang Lao shook his head helplessly, "Children, don't worry too much, Qianyi doesn't mean to blame you, it's just that he needs time to calm down and time to think." ”

"Your mission is undoubtedly a success, if you look at it from the perspective of the entire alliance, or even a strategic success, you should be awarded the greatest reward, but if you look at it from my personal point of view, I would rather you give up this mission and come back safely."

Listening to Zhuang Lao's words, everyone couldn't help but bow their heads. Was this mission really a success? What is the definition of success? Everyone is seriously injured, and one member of the team is missing, is this also called success? They don't know, and they can't get the answer to this question, no matter who they give it to, but they don't regret it, because they know that what they did was right.

"Okay, let's go and rest, you have just recovered from your injuries and need time to recuperate, don't accept the task commission for the time being during this time, relax and relax, you have done enough for the alliance." Zhuang Lao said with a smile.

in the courtyard.

Xiao Lao walked alone on the stone road, he was wearing a mask, and outsiders could not see his expression at this time, but he knew that his current appearance must be frowning.

Chen Mochen was missing, he was the most anxious one, even if he knew that those children had done nothing wrong in this matter, but even so, he almost couldn't suppress his emotions just now.

But now that I think about it, will something really happen to Chen Moji? This answer is not even sure of itself. Where the limit of that stinky boy is, no one can know at all. A kid with that special ability to draw power from the Sea of Chaos has absolutely no problem with self-preservation.

What's more, the owner of the Chaos Principle is itself blessed with atmospheric luck, and the death of each generation of the Chaos Principle Controller will only encounter danger when fighting against the Great Tribulation unless it is a natural death. Luck sounds very abstract, but in fact it really exists, and it is a special law.

There used to be a controller in the alliance who had the ability to manipulate luck, but because his ability was too rebellious, he died not long after.

"Still worried?" A familiar voice sounded in his ears, and Xiao Lao did not turn around, still strolling by himself.

"Is it possible that that stinky boy to be swept into the little world we know." Xiao Lao asked, but it seemed like he was talking to himself.

"I've also taken this into consideration, and now I've dispatched ten teams of controllers to find it, and if there are clues, I'll know it as soon as possible."

"Hmm......" Xiao Lao sighed, "Although that stinky boy is usually neither big nor small, and he doesn't know how to be polite or respect for the elder, but for me, he is just such an apprentice." ”

Zhuang Lao took a step forward and patted Xiao Lao's shoulder, "He'll be fine with ink marks." ”

"Hey...... Let's hope so. ”

……

Water, to imagine it freeze, to feel its structure, to condense it with a star source, to condense it......

With a bang, the water balls condensed in my hands instantly spilled on the ground, and I jumped backwards in time to prevent the water from splashing on my pants.

Grow one

With a sigh, I wiped the non-existent sweat from my forehead, this was already my Nth failure. I've been experimenting with metal manipulation and ice condensation for the past few days, two forces that I don't yet control. I thought it would be hard enough to manipulate metal, but it was even harder to freeze the ice.

Metal manipulation is ultimately my ability, and it's the power that I use directly. But condensation is not, my ability is to manipulate water, if it is just a simple change in form and density that uses the water element to attack or defend, I can already do it after this period of practice.

But Condensation Frost is not, it is a kind of transformation of the ability to manipulate water, and it is a further skill. This is similar to the Flame Heart bullet I have studied, and it is a kind of in-depth mastery of the elements.

Hey, what do you do to freeze water? After all, is the water and ice condensed with the star source really the same thing in the controller?

In the real world, water starts to freeze when the temperature drops below freezing, and the lower the temperature, the harder the ice becomes. Although it is not difficult to freeze water in reality, it is not easy to freeze water through star sources.

I sat down on the ground, and then Chen Yuxin pushed the door and walked in, seeing me sitting on the ground with a depressed face, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile: "Ah, is it possible that Brother Moji, are you experiencing any difficulties?" ”

Hearing her voice, I couldn't help but feel angry, this stinky girl looked like she had nothing to do with herself.

"Go, go, don't mess around, I'm thinking about things." I waved my hand and said.

"It's too much, Brother Moji, I'll bring you a drink." Chen Yuxin said aggrievedly, and after that, Chen Yuxin stepped forward, put the drink beside me, looked at me for a while, and asked suspiciously, "Why do you want to think about such a thing." ”

I knew she was using mind reading, and I didn't care, but asked myself, "What do you think is the difference between ice and water?" ”

"The difference? Water is no different from ice, it's just a thing. Chen Yuxin said.

Hey, it's a bit hard for her to ask her this. Thinking like this, I wanted to stand up and try again, but the next sentence from Chen Yuxin made me stop.

"If I had to say the difference, the ice wouldn't move, the water would!"

Hearing this, I was directly stunned. Chen Yuxin's words sounded meaningless, even a little naïve, but this sentence woke me up with one sentence.

"That's right, this is it!" I stood up suddenly, turned around and grabbed Chen Yuxin's shoulder, and said in surprise, "The water will move, but it won't move!" Yuxin, what you said is so good! ”

Before Chen Yuxin could react, I gently pushed her out, closed the door hard, and stood in the middle of the test site again.

Water moves, ice doesn't, why does water move, because the molecules of water are moving! The ice doesn't move because the water molecules in the ice move slowly or even at all! This is the same in the control of the star source, I have been thinking about how to use the star source to wrap and solidify the water, but I didn't think of letting the star source itself that makes up the water solidify, why didn't I think of such a simple and basic reason at the beginning.

I didn't expect that it wasn't me who woke me up in the end, but the most unreliable little girl. With that in mind, I started trying again.
