Chapter 5: Hades
"Seeing it invisible, hearing it silently, it is called the underworld. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info Netherworld, so the Tao is not the Tao. (Huainanzi, said Shanxun)
O foolish man! Am I an underworld, am I a demon? The earthly thunder has no edge for me! γ
Yu Ai was dressed in a bright red coat, carrying a black guitar case, the hood was low, covering most of her face, and the lightning gushing from the walls of the secret room exploded around her body, bursting out with a piercing explosion, but none of this affected her.
At this moment, the diamond was in her hand, and she was not the slightest happy, just like before, it was another high-grade imitation that was fake. A wry smile appeared on her lips.
[Even Krako has been deceived, it seems that the old woman is determined to fight against me!] γ
Galaxy Technology's diamond imitation technology can deceive the sharpest eyes of humans, but it can't hide the sensitive fingertips of the underworld.
The underworld is able to tell the truth the moment they touch the diamond. When the underworld touches it, you will feel a trace of sadness flowing into your heart through your fingertips; A fake diamond is nothing more than a cold stone.
Yu Ai disdainfully put the diamond back in place, and in that moment, all the lightning stopped, and she slowly retreated to the edge of the secret room in alarm.
To humans, she is an air-like being, flowing anywhere in the world, and the metal walls are nothing more than a sieve to her. What's more, humans can't see her at all unless she wants to, just as humans can't see air.
But the moment her back touched the wall of the secret room, Yu Ai still showed a lot of surprise.
She touched the wall literally. She had walked through the hallway and into the secret room, and if she had been in before, there was no reason why she couldn't get out now.
Yu Ai's fingertips scraped across the wall, and at some point, an extra layer of transparent crystals appeared on the wall, and there was a "flame" swimming inside the crystal.
γDiamonds? γ
"This is specially prepared for you, it takes eleven high-purity diamonds to create a film, and this is the only one that can stop you, right?" Mrs. Ma's wrinkled lips fluctuated slightly, and she spoke into the microphone into the secret room, her voice was full of kindness and love, but her eyes were always paying close attention to the movements of the figure on the surveillance screen, "I just saw you like I saw my eldest granddaughter, but I haven't seen her for a long time, and I guess I'm hunting again." Do you like hunting? β
Yu Ai tapped the wall a few times, and the crystals on it were only a thin layer, but the hardness was surprisingly large.
[It's a real diamond, but unfortunately I can't take it away.] γ
Yu Ai gave up on breaking through the cage on her own, she leaned her back against the wall, her eyes locked on the huge black glass curtain wall directly opposite, and she had a sense of foreboding.
"Do you like to go to the theater?" Mrs. Ma's old voice came from a corner of the secret room again, "Old woman, I especially like the 'Please enter the urn' scene, I don't know how many times I have watched it, I will still look at it when I am free, people are old, I can't walk, I can only bother you to come here." β
Yu Ai walked along the wall unhurriedly, her fingers tapping on the wall, her eyes never taking off the glass curtain wall.
Mrs. Ma watched the figure walk along the corner of the wall over and over again, never daring to approach the glass curtain wall, and secretly felt proud in her heart, sure enough, even the shadow would be afraid of unfamiliar things.
"I want to ask you three questions, you just need to answer yes or no, and after answering, I will naturally let you go." Mrs. Ma secretly pressed her palm on the start switch of the console and said, "First question, is the guitar on your back?" β
Yu Ai doubts that the other end of the microphone is really Mrs. Ma?
[I thought you would ask some tricky questions, but I can answer you honestly. γ
Mrs. Ma nodded a few times when she saw the figure, and then shook her head a few times.
"Good, I see." Mrs. Ma said.
The people standing behind her were confused, nodding and shaking their heads, what do you mean?
"Second question, are you human?"
Director Leng, who was standing aside, was taken aback.
[You guys? Has this happened before, why don't I know? γ
As the supreme commander of Galaxy Technology's security system, Director Leng is well aware of all the protective measures of Galaxy Technology, even so, there is still top-secret information that is not known, even if it is the face of a woman that appeared on the computer screen just now, he has seen it for the first time, and this system is not under his jurisdiction.
[How much did the old lady hide? γ
While Director Leng was in a daze, the figure in the secret room did not move.
Mrs. Ma was expressionless.
"The third question, can't you survive without diamonds?"
This time, after waiting for quite some time, the figure in the secret room remained motionless.
"Stubborn!" Mrs. Ma muttered, slowly approached the microphone, and said, "Thank you." "I pressed the start switch hard.
The woman's face on the screen spoke again: "The Tengu system is activated, and the shadow hunt is carried out." β
Mrs. Ma did this in front of so many employees, and the effect was very subtle.
Director Leng saw that the faces of the employees below became very intriguing, and he couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart. γ
There was a powerful electric current in the chamber, "Hum! With a bang, Yu Ai saw a pair of blood-red eyes bloom behind the black glass!
The glass curtain wall opened to both sides, and the sound of machines running could be heard in the darkness behind them, as if a huge machine monster was waking up, struggling to get out of the dark hole.
"Huh?" Mrs. Ma saw that the figure on the screen not only did not retreat, but also took a few steps closer to the hole in the wall, and she noticed that the figure in the secret room never put down the big guitar on his back.
Yu Ai stood in the middle of the secret room, and she had already guessed that it would be a god horse. Overhead is the high ceiling of the secret room, and in a few seconds, this secret room will become a colosseum, and she is going to stage a wonderful beast fight.
"Whew!" A gust of wind blew past Yu Ai, and her two strands of severed hair slowly fell from the air.
The people in the control room staring at the screen did not react to what was happening for a while, and in the blink of an eye, the figure that was originally standing on the ground stood on the shelf, and a dog-shaped mechanical beast the size of an African elephant appeared out of thin air in the secret room, and its two blood-red eyes seemed to be about to spit fire.
Director Leng was thrilled to see, even he only saw the second attack of the mechanical dog, and he only guessed the first attack.
The mechanical dog burst out of the hole in the wall, and its sharp claws swung towards the figure, the canine teeth followed, and it was a miracle that it was able to dodge the first wave of attacks, however, the figure was so fast that not only did it dodge the second attack, but also had time to jump to the shelf in the center of the secret room.
[Who is that figure ...... sacred]
The mechanical dog is also very good, in such a narrow secret room, not only did it raid at a super high speed but also stopped steadily in a short time, anyone who knows physics knows that this is more difficult than stopping a train running at full speed within ten meters! Robot dogs have to withstand tremendous acceleration and have a high level of balance stability while remaining sensitive. You know, the width of the chamber is less than ten meters.
Director Leng was sweating profusely, and his premonition was particularly strong tonight, that some kind of change was about to take place in Galaxy Technology. Not only because he had heard a lot of things that he had never heard of in the company for ten years, but also because of the crisis of trust, when Mrs. Ma, who was known for her iron-fisted rule, did not trust a person, she would not reveal any information to that person, and tonight, Mrs. Ma suddenly came to the monitoring room!
Tengu walked slowly around the corner of the chamber, his eyes always fixed on the top of the shelf, ready to strike.
Yu Ai looked at her broken hair that was gradually disappearing in the air, and a trace of sadness flowed in her heart.
[Dusty and adrift fate! Once you die, you will leave nothing behind, and return to the other side of the rain, a distant homeland! Ancient songs, singing the ...... of the dead]
The tengu roared, its paws scraping the metal floor, making a screeching sound, every part of its body was heating up, it was boiling, it needed to be released, it needed to explode, it could see shadows, it hurt shadows, it hurt shadows that could pass through walls, on the surface of its claws, a thin layer of brocade diamonds, shimmering with the light of flames!
Everyone in the control room saw the tengu lean down, its front body pressed down, leaning backwards, its legs stretched like four bows, and in the next moment, it was about to attack.
