The Pandora warrior who led me in the basement of 022 is called Li Yu, a girl with a round face, very cute.

Under her guidance, we traveled all the way through half the academy to a gloomy castle.

"Hey, it turns out that the academy still has such a building. "The castle is like a building of the old era, silent and eternal in front of us, and the rusty iron gate exudes a decayed, ancient atmosphere, like a legendary ghost castle, an ominous place that devours all living beings.

Li Yu, who has a round face, said: "Actually, this is a ghost castle. ”

"Ghost Castle?" I asked, a little puzzled.

"That's right, it's the legendary castle where ghosts live, in fact, it's not so exaggerated, this castle looks very old, but in fact it didn't take more than ten years to build, a student deliberately bought this land to build it like this in order to satisfy his curiosity, and it only cost a billion star coins. ”

Did it just cost?

As she spoke, the round-faced girl Li Yu had already pushed open the rotten iron door, and the iron door even let out a long moan, like a terminally ill old man, who could retire at any time.

The ground in the courtyard was full of decaying leaves, the ancient trees on both sides of the road had withered, and the wind formed by the flow of air was like a ghostly wail, curse, and even permeating.

To be honest, I couldn't help but get goosebumps when I came here.

The round-faced Li Yu didn't seem to feel this way, walking in front of me steadily, and even humming a melodious tune.

"Aren't you afraid?" I asked.

The girl Li Yu replied: "Actually, I was very scared when I first came, I was very scared, but then I got used to it, when you have lived here alone for nearly half a year, and you know everything about the grass and trees here, you will find that this place is also quite good." ”

"Why do you want to live alone for half a year?" I somewhat understand why Misato Shizuku asked this girl to show me the way, but I still can't understand that a girl actually lives here for half a year?

At the mention of this, the girl seemed to blush, and said with some embarrassment: "The most ...... At first, I made a bet, played a game with my friends, and the loser was going to stay here for a day, and it turned out to be ......"

"As a result, you lost for half a year in a row?"

"Yes!" Li Yu nodded.

Although I am speechless about your luck, the spirit of repeated defeats is still worth encouraging. If you are an ordinary person, you have already given up after losing a few times.

It didn't take long for the main building of the castle to finally be unveiled in front of us.

The Gothic castle, the domed building, and the pitch-black walls seem to be the heaviest colors, just looking at it, it gives people a feeling of infinite depression and breathlessness.

I admired the female surname in front of me again, who actually lived here for half a year, what are your nerves made of.

Li Yu stepped forward and pushed the closed door open, and with a squeak, through the moonlight, illuminated the hall inside.

Li Yu turned on the light very skillfully, and the spiral ceiling exuded a dim light, although it was dim, it was still more than a step stronger than the moonlight.

At least now, I can see what is all around me.

The dusty floor, the furniture, the walls are mottled, the paint has dried, cracked, and even peeled off, and there are oil paintings hanging on the walls, all abstract.

There are vampires, there are mummies, there are crows, there are ghosts, there are many, many ominous legendary varieties.

Is it built to satisfy your own curiosity?

I sighed again and asked, "Where is Lacey?"

Li Yu thought for a while and said: "This ancient castle is very big, there are many places that can hide people, if one person seems to have the intention to hide, even if ten people look for it, it will take several days to find it." But don't worry, I'm familiar with this kind of place, and I know a lot about the places where people can hide, most likely the basement. ”

In the veritable basement, behind a wooden door in the corner of the hall, there is a spiraling staircase, and you go down until you find another wooden door at the end.

After pushing it open, an empty basement appeared in front of us.

The basement is about the size of a football field, but it doesn't have anything too big, so it looks very empty, but surprisingly, there is a huge eerie pattern on the ground in the basement.

It's the first time I've seen this pattern, but I don't know why, but it always feels very familiar.

It's like I've seen it somewhere.

This pattern emitted a blood-red glow, as if there was an endless flow of blood qi, emitting a disgusting aura, and the World Tree seed in my body reacted even more violently to it.

It is like a real heart, beating with a bang, and a vast breath of life gushes out of it crazily, and this green vitality rushes into all directions of the body with a strong attack in an instant.

It slammed into something, and his body couldn't help but stiffen slightly.

Thump!

Suddenly, Li Yu next to me fell to the ground, unconscious.

A flash of realization crossed my mind, and when my body regained consciousness, I threw myself to the ground.

After a while, a slight sound of footsteps sounded, one in front and one behind, and it was the footsteps of two people.

Soon, the two of them walked into the basement.

"Stupid fellow, do you think you can catch me this way?" said an indifferent voice, and then, as if asking, asked, "What to do, do you want to kill me?"

My heart tightened, and I was about to burst out, when another voice rang out, "There's no need to do anything superfluous, the time is coming soon, understand?"

My heart shook and I almost roared, and the voice was very familiar, it was Monica.

In this way, the other indifferent voice is Reese, she really betrayed the academy, she is really the mysterious woman who was witnessed by Lin Xi.

Immediately afterward, my body was moved, and someone held me and threw me and Li Yu to the corner.

The conversation between the two continued.

Reese said anxiously: "The Academy's Pandora Battle Princesses already know about this place, should we plan in a safe place." ”

Monica refused, "No, in the castle, there is only one magic array that can communicate with the Demon King, leaving here, we can't do anything, we can't leave." ”

"But ......"

"Rest assured. Monica said: "You have seen the situation just now, whether it is ordinary people or Pandora War Queen, they can't resist the magic power of this magic array, even if other Pandora knows about this place, it will be useless." ”

Reese seemed relieved and said no more.

After a while, Monica said, "You go and gather the other companions to protect the remaining subsidiary magic arrays, and when a certain time comes, we will activate these magic arrays together and sacrifice the students of the entire academy to let Lord Pandora's clone come." ”

Reese suddenly shouted, "This is different from what you said, you clearly said that Master Pandora can't really come, and needs my body as a container, why should I leave!"

Touch!

Suddenly, there was a muffled sound, and I opened my eyes slightly, and saw Reese fly upside down, slamming into the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"My words are orders, Reese, are you going to disobey my orders?"

Monica looked coldly at Lacey who fell to the ground, walked over slowly, and stepped on her head, "Answer me Lacey, are you going to disobey my life?"

Lacey's eyes changed and she struggled a few times before she finally said respectfully, "Please forgive me for my stupidity, Monica-sama." ”

"Good. Monica nodded slightly, seemingly pleased with Reese's attitude.

"If you understand, leave me quickly, you are no longer needed here, whether it is me or you, from the beginning it was just a chess piece, we are not qualified to become a container, the person who can really become a container, there is only one person from beginning to end, not me, not you. ”

Monica, who was in a good mood, explained a little and let Resie leave.

When the sound of footsteps faded away, Monica was the only one left in the basement.

I hesitated, but decided to make a move.

Taking advantage of Monica's inattention, I jumped up suddenly, started the vector, and the whole person was like a streamer, with a spiral of air, rushing in front of Monica.

"Monica !!"

Probably never expecting me to suddenly make a move on her, Monica was so shocked that she could only fold her hands together and place them on top of her chest in the face of my punches.

Click!

My fist broke her arm straight and sent her flying.

"Yan Xiaoyi!" Monica, who was blown away, looked at me in disbelief, the broken arm was not taken into account by her at all, and it returned to normal after a few seconds.

This super-rapid regeneration is really tough.

"Monica, at first I didn't believe you actually assassinated the chairman, but now it seems that you really did it. ”

My anger was not at this, but at something else, "What the hell are you thinking about sacrificing everyone in the Holy Lily Academy and summoning Pandora's clone, Monica!"

After the initial surprise, Monica quickly reacted, "I knew you weren't an ordinary person from the beginning, but I didn't expect things to be like this." ”

She seemed to understand something, and looked me straight in the eye, "It's a beautiful pattern, and the pattern in your eyes is the real power compared to our stigmata." ”

The bird-like pattern in my eyes, she seemed to understand something, and laughed softly.

"I didn't expect that I thought it was a long search, but I found it all at once, Yan Xiaoyi, do you know, the god lives in heaven, and the demon king is in hell, why did Lord Pandora suddenly come to this doppelganger and come to the world where we live?"

I don't know why, but I have a bad premonition.

"It's very simple, the reason why human beings act because they have a purpose, and the same is true for Master Pandora, the reason why she came to our world in her clone is to find her escaped bride!"

Monica smiled very strangely, and surging air bursts out from her body, "Sa, let's explain now, the witch's contractor, Yan Xiaoyi, Lord Pandora's bride, where is that witch !!?"

Sure enough, I came to find CC.

I yelled, "I don't know, that guy with the surname Ren, why do I know where she is!"

Monica shot like a cannonball, with incredible power, but with the ability of the vector, it was impossible to hurt me.

In close combat, I am the real king.

And Monica's infinitely strong fighting spirit is one of the abilities of close combat, and it is not my opponent at all.

Click!

Her fist slammed into my body, but I easily changed the vector, and then fractured, more completely than the last time, and the white bones pierced through the flesh and exposed to the air.

But thanks to the ultra-rapid regeneration, Monica's arm quickly returned to its original shape.

She looked at her arm in surprise, and then looked at me again, "Is this the power of the Witch Contractor? Compared to us pseudo-contractors, it is more powerful and pure, you are really lucky, Yan Xiaoyi." ”

There was no jealousy in her tone, just a faint telling of a fact.

I calmly persuaded, "You can't win me, Monica, surrender, the chairman is dead, you know?"

Monica was slightly stunned, and nodded thoughtfully, "I see, has she already done it?" to be able to kill the chairman so neatly, she is really the most suitable person." ”

"Do you know who killed the chairman?" I already understand that I can't let Monica go today no matter what.

But before that, let's destroy this magic array first.

I clenched my fist and threw a punch into the ground.

Bang!

In an instant, an overwhelming force suddenly erupted from the magic array, and this power was incredibly large, enough to raze a mountain peak to the ground.

However, under my vector work, the power struck back on the magic array again, and collided with the new surge of power, and an invisible wave of qi swept in all directions, and I remained still, but the magic array was not destroyed.

"It's useless, the moment the magic array was formed, Lord Pandora's power had already protected this magic array, even the witch's contractor couldn't destroy this magic array, you should die. ”

When Monica saw my behavior, she smiled incomprehensibly.

I didn't die and threw a few punches again, and as I saw just now, invisible waves of qi erupted again and again, but there was no crack in the magic array.

I stood up and said to Monica, "How can I destroy this magic circle?" ”

"It's impossible to destroy, Lord Pandora's power, it's not something that a human can contend with, you die!"

Of course, I won't give up, and since I can't destroy this magic array, I should never let it start.

Capture Monica, then Pandora's other minions, capture everyone who knows how to activate this magic circle, and destroy the castle to bury it forever.

Sou!

Monica seemed to know what I was thinking and rushed towards the basement entrance, ready to leave.

"How could you succeed!"

Compared to speed, Monica was far worse than Cecilia, what she did was strength, not speed, and I quickly caught up with me, and I intercepted Monica at the entrance and threw a punch.

Monica suffered a loss once, and she didn't dare to take it hard, as long as she quickly stepped back.

I hurriedly chased after me and fought with Monica.

Click...... Click...... A series of broken bones sounded, and in close combat, anyone in front of me was a tragedy, and Monica was no exception.

In just a few rounds, I broke her arms, grabbed her neck, and pinned her to the wall.

"Monsters!" Monica said, gasping.

"Monsters or non-humans, tell me how to destroy the magic array. I asked.

"As I have already said, the magic circle is guarded by the power of Lord Pandora, and no one can destroy it. ”

"You really want to die. "I let out a murderous aura, and the cold aura wrapped around Monica's neck, and I only needed to use light force to crush Monica's slender neck, or twist it off.

Monica slowly closed her eyes.

I sighed and said, "Monica, why do you want to do this, you should know that if you really sacrifice the students of the entire academy, your sister, Hikaru Yuzuru, everyone you know will die." ”

"So what?"

I was so anxious and angry that I didn't expect Monica to say something like, "Don't you care about them at all?"

"It's their honor to be able to contribute to the arrival of Master Pandora!" Monica said coldly.

I choked slightly, and suddenly felt that this Monica was completely different from the Monica I knew, cold, selfish, and completely like a different person.

Or is this her real surname?

"Monica, you ......"

Touch!

Suddenly, a hand slammed into my back, and if I hadn't been doing vector all the time, it would have been pierced through my chest.

Stunned, I turned my head to look over, and happened to see the round-faced girl Li Yu holding her broken arm and quickly retreating.

"You ......" I looked at the girl in disbelief.

"Are you awake, Li Yu? Monica became excited, "Kill her, Li Yu, do it immediately!"

Li Yu's severed arm recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and looked at me indifferently, "Let go of Master Monica." ”

"You're in the same league as them?"

"Let go of Monica-sama!" Li Yu repeated what he had just said.

"Impossible!" I flatly refused.

Li Yu stretched out his hand, different from the gentle smiling face just now, now this face is indifferent in addition to indifference.

Her hand was on my chest and she shook it suddenly.

Thump!

I felt as if my heart was about to burst, and the intense pain stimulated me to vomit a mouthful of blood.

Countless tiny blood vessels burst one after another under this pinch, and the whole heart was a terrible mess.

What is this, what is it exactly?

I was almost wiped out by this blow, if it weren't for the World Tree Seed that poured out a large amount of life force in an instant to repair broken blood vessels, cracked hearts.

My heart has already been pinched into a mess by Li Yu's blow.
