Chapter 259: Karel's Sophistry (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense, and a shocking conspiracy seemed to have been unveiled.
These elves have the ability to build a huge underground ecosystem on a planet that has been running stably for thousands of years, which is enough to show that they have very advanced planetary ecological transformation technology, and the most important thing in these technologies is that they have a strong ability to dig holes.
So the question is, which excavator technology is stronger? Maybe in this magical universe, I am afraid that no one can surpass these elves, but they have dug out two planetary shelters.
Under Karel's command, they are doing normal weapons trading with those cosmic smugglers in Crystal City, and even invite big customers to visit their magic laboratory, but underground, they are carrying out a crazy top-secret plan - to occupy the planet where advanced intelligent civilizations exist across the universe, and the subject matter of the weapon trade can basically be concluded to be the special materials for them to make space battleships and other weapons.
"But isn't the portal there leading to my hometown?" Oldman said thoughtfully.
"When we came, we teleported directly from the earth to Charleston, Cheng Shi asked the car to check before, that portal can teleport people to different places, they should have mastered some kind of teleportation skills, otherwise they would not rashly dig a tunnel to Charleston from the ground." Barbara analyzed.
Oldman nodded, then frowned and began to recall what they had seen during their visit to Tikonia, and after a moment, he softened his brow: "Everything is logical, it seems that Tony's free magic training school is just selecting talents with magical talents for the underground laboratory." And there may be two reasons for summoning the aliens back from the earth, one is to find out the situation on the other side of the earth, and the other is to study the body structure of the aliens on the earth, and provide samples for the locals they transform here, so that the transformed people can not only drive the battleship to the main universe safely through the portal, but even live directly on the earth, so they don't care about the life or death of those aliens on the earth, and are willing to pay a high price for people to carry the corpses, which is a perfect plan. But it's so inhumane that they're doing it, they're basically transforming people into weapons. ”
Barbara sighed softly, then took out her mobile phone from her pocket and looked at the time: "I don't know where Cheng Shi is, I really hope he can come over soon." She glanced at Carl, "Can you take us to Karel?" ”
"Karel?" Karl's ears twitched, then he shook his head, "I've seen this name on the rune books, but I've never seen him. ”
Barbara sighed and didn't ask any further.
"Brother, you have been away from the post for so long at one time, and no one is looking for you?" Kayla leaned over to Carl and asked, curiously.
Carl looked at his vampire sister and smiled with relief: "It's okay, let them find it, anyway, I don't plan to counterattack the earth with them," he said and glanced at Barbara, "I just don't know how we can get out?" ”
Barbara straightened her chest and snorted softly: "Just swagger out like this, I'll see what they dare to do to me." ”
Everyone in the room except Carl knew why Barbara had such a big confidence, and Carl showed a confused expression.
After the six of them walked out of the room, the narrow corridor where only two people walked side by side was still quiet, and it seemed that it was really as Carl said, the staff in the laboratory whose memories had been reshaped had been turned into working machines, and they were completely abiding by a strict work and rest system, and I am afraid that only he, an outlier among the outliers, still had the ability to think independently.
Barbara and Oldman walked side by side in front, Yang Yang and North were sandwiched in the middle, and Carl led Kayla at the back of the line, and the six of them walked towards the magic elevator as if no one was there.
But when the group walked to the wide corridor with magic runes floating on the walls, there were more people around, but just like when they came, no one paid attention to them, and Carl, dressed in a lab coat, walked quietly next to the five, pretending not to know them.
"Oh my God!" A short elf with pointy ears suddenly pointed at Barbara and exclaimed, "Are you...... No, it can't be, it can't ......"
The main reason why Barbara did not cover her face with a headscarf was that she hoped that she could use her face as a pass at a critical time, because the statue in the central square of Crystal City was clearly carved on her, and she was indeed the messenger of the gods admitted by the elven elder Karel himself.
According to Carl's description, Barbara understands that the lab staff who have reshaped their memories will become very stupid, and will never speak if they can communicate with each other with gestures, in fact, when they first came over, the people they met in this corridor basically had "symptoms" of communication difficulties, which caused them to get almost nothing before they met Carl.
But the one in front of her could take the initiative to talk to strangers, and the expression on his face was very exaggerated, which couldn't help but surprise her: "You...... Know me? ”
When the short elf heard Barbara speak, the muscles in his face began to twitch violently, and then in an instant he knelt in front of Barbara, and then began to make various gestures, as if to pray.
Seeing this, Barbara hurriedly crouched down to talk to him, but he looked even more frightened, and actually lay directly on the floor, obviously he regarded Barbara as their god, and he was probably just a low-level believer, only seen the god statue, and was not qualified to listen to the teachings of the gods.
The strange scene in front of him, under normal circumstances, people with a little curiosity would at least stop a little to see the excitement, but there were so many people coming and going in the corridor, and no one stopped for this, and no one seemed to be curious about it.
After thinking for a moment, Barbara felt that if she wanted to see Karel as soon as possible, she might as well do it, so she got up and said slowly in a very majestic voice, "I am your messenger of the gods, please take me to Karel." It sounded like it had been practiced ten or eight times.
The short elf really reacted when he heard the sound, and saw him staggering up from the floor with his head down, and then walked forward with his body bowed as large as he could, as if he was silently leading the way.
In order not to attract everyone's attention, Carl stood far away and pretended to be a magic rune formula floating on the wall of the learning hallway.
Yang Yang and North were also stunned when they saw Barbara's sudden pretending behavior, and Oldman and Kayla were also a little stunned on their faces, but they didn't say anything.
Barbara maintained a dignified and graceful walking posture, following the short elf leading the way in front, while the others followed behind Barbara at a certain distance under Oldman's gestures.
After walking for about ten minutes, the group came to a door that looked ordinary on the surface, and the short elf stood on the side of the door with his head bowed in the largest posture, and he did not dare to look up the whole time, and did not say a word.
Barbara clearly understood what he meant, and thinking about who she was, she pushed the door open.
Sure enough, Karel was sitting cross-legged in front of a statue that looked like Barbara with his eyes closed.
"Presumptuous, I don't receive anyone when I pray."
A familiar voice came from Karel's direction, but no one saw him speak.
The first time Barbara saw her statue being offered, she couldn't help but feel nervous, and after stabilizing her mind a little, she walked up to Karel and whispered, "It's me, can you tell me about the latest situation here?" ”
Hearing this, Karel slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw Barbara, he hurriedly got up and bowed a little panicked: "Respected messenger of God, I didn't expect you to come in person, please forgive me for my rudeness just now." ”
Under normal circumstances, if a person is praying in front of a statue, and the person in the statue suddenly comes to his side, all normal people will be shocked, but fortunately, the elven old man has seen Barbara before, and he also knows that Barbara is only a messenger of the gods, not the Valkyrie he believes in, so his reaction is normal.
Barbara breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Karel still admitted her identity, thinking that she should not salute first and then fight like she had done last time, and the tense nerves of the others on the side were also soothed.
"Did you order a statue to be erected in the square outside?" Barbara asked in a questioning tone.
Karel nodded: "Originally, there was no need to do this, to tell you the truth, I can hardly hear the voice of God now, the God Realm is very quiet, this is a situation that has never appeared before, and I don't dare to speculate what the reason is, but in the long run, I am worried that the faith of the believers will be shaken, and you have also seen the situation outside, our world is very complicated, there are many weapon merchants from another universe, although we have lived on this planet for thousands of years, the whole world is still facing destruction, Devotion to the Valkyrie is the only effective way to unite the power of all people in our world, and the guidance of the Valkyrie is the only way for us to escape the destruction of the world. ”
"The only way?" Barbara glanced at Karel with some confusion, combined with the information provided by Carl, Karel was obviously lying, the Valkyrie was nothing more than a tool he used to fool everyone, he just wanted to use the Valkyrie to weave a complete set of religious creeds, so that more people would voluntarily come over to accept body modification and become laboratory staff or warriors in the main universe, "Have you seen your Valkyrie?" Any idea what she looks like? ”
Karel was a little apprehensive when he heard this: "I have vaguely seen in meditation that the Valkyrie is very similar to her messenger, I can only say so much, you should know it." ”
Barbara shook her head a little speechlessly: "Remove the statue outside, the real messenger of the gods will help you solve the problem of existential crisis." ”
