"None of you can go!" The head of the Hades group suddenly spoke, "Although I said just now that the Mill Institute will be your world in the future, even if we don't help much now, we can still distinguish right from wrong, and we can also help you make up your minds, you guys, are you sure you just make your own private decisions?!" ”

Gong Piqing and the three of them lowered their heads at the same time, in fact, they were just joking, even if the plan was really approved, it had to be agreed by these old elders on the other side.

"Sorry boss, I was rude, but I think this plan is really feasible, the three of us are all people who have been to the country of machines, although we haven't reached the real country of machines, but ...... We still have some knowledge of the situation in that trap tower, but it is feasible, and even if we do want to go, we still have a lot of problems. ”

"What's the problem?" Gaia and several commanders asked at the same time.

"Just like Gaia just said, the kind of energy equipment he said can be found everywhere in the country of machines, but the last time I went there with the World Tree on a mission, I have never seen that kind of mechanical structure similar to a globe that sprays steam, I don't say this to deny Gaia, but to explain that the tower in the country of machines doesn't know how many floors, each layer is like an independent world or an independent city, just like in the mission I went with the World Tree, the World Tree directly broke the ground on one floor, Then we fell from another layer of the sky, and the height of each layer was actually tens of kilometers, if it weren't for the World Tree to protect me, it is estimated that I would have fallen to my death at that height. ”

Hades explained to them, "I say this just to illustrate, maybe only the level you are on has that kind of energy equipment, and the other layers may be different, or take the action of me and the World Tree as an example, the layer we landed on looks like we were here in the eighties and nineties, although there is also a lot of white steam there, but it is the heat caused by the leakage of underground hot water pipes, the energy there is still the electricity we are familiar with, and the stove is used for cooking at home, The slightly better home uses induction cookers, not the kind of situation where we think all use steam power in the country of machines. ”

"That's right, Immortal is right." Gong Piqing continued, "When we got to the second floor, the picture we saw was completely different, the upper floor was fifty or sixty years behind us, and the next floor looked fifty or sixty years more advanced than ours, it was a modern city, neon lights illuminated a small half of the city, each floor was dozens or even hundreds of floors high, and even they were able to use complex and sophisticated mechanical structures at the top of those high-rise buildings to create an open-air stage that could extend from the building, according to my understanding, The energy sources there are still electrical energy and mechanical energy that we can't grasp at the moment. ”

The commanders' gaze kept jumping back and forth between the three of them as the spokesperson did.

"That's right, the World Tree is right, and one thing I need to state is that the country of machinery is worthy of its name, and the machinery and equipment used in some places are quite complex, so complex that even I need to interpret it for a long time to understand it in some places, just like the open-air stage that the World Tree said, it is simply difficult to create a stage that can carry hundreds of people and some equipment at the same time on a high-rise building with human technology, and that stage is purely mechanically controlled, and the design is ingenious, I had been reading the device for almost ten minutes, but I couldn't figure out what they were doing to make the terrace so stable. ”

"Is it possible...... Magic? One of the commanders asked tentatively.

The Immortal shook his head vigorously, "No, all the mechanical equipment there can be explained by force analysis, but it's quite complicated. ”

The meeting room fell silent again, as if the plan that Gaia had just proposed had been overturned by Hades and Gong Piqing singing and "explaining" in harmony.

After a long time, the head of the Hades group spoke again, "Hmm...... I've already understood what you're talking about, but in the long run, we do need a strong and stable enough energy source to keep the institute running, which can help us solve most of the current urgent needs, and it will be very convenient if you take over the institute in the future. ”

"But if we don't land on that floor, it's over......" Gong Piqing said with a frown.

"Is this not a problem...... old man said in a deep voice.

"Do you have a way to get us to the level Gaia said he was talking about?!" The Immortal asked in some surprise.

The old man nodded, "Originally...... After sending all four of your teams to the portal, except for draining the secondary viruses used for teleportation in the door, we have never moved the structure of the portal, that is, the coordinates of the teleportation have not been moved, and if those coordinates, that is, the position of the runes in the portal, have not changed, we will be able to restore the portal when you entered the demon realm, even if the portal is slightly wrong with the time, but it can also ensure that your new landing position will not be too different from before. ”

That is to say...... We can go back to that place again......" Gong Piqing said in a dream-like distraction.

After the old man said that, his mind seemed to be out of control, and his mind fell on the scene when they first entered the land of extreme cold, when all of them wondered if they had teleported to the wrong place and teleported them to the vicinity of the Arctic Circle, when the situation of their team could not have been better, everyone was healthy, there was plenty of food, and all danger had not yet come......

But he suddenly came back to his senses, and he realized that the old man was only talking about teleporting them back to that location, not teleporting you back to that time, if time could be reversed, they would be able to recover everything they had lost, but there may not be such a thing in the world that can turn back time, so everything they lost in this mission will never be recovered.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously took out the badge he had just brought back from Xiguan Renai Hospital from the mezzanine of the exoskeleton, and used the afterglow of the desktop flashlight to look at the girl with a little freckles on her face and a shy smile on her face in a place where no one could see......

It seems that when he figured out that time could not be turned back, the girl in his hand really left him, and he once again missed the opportunity to make up for it, if time could be turned back and everything could be repeated, he would definitely do whatever it takes, even if he couldn't wait for the three of them to come to support, even if he died in front of Zhang Yuemei, he would rush to the elemental mage desperately......

However, even he didn't know that when he was thinking about this, his face unconsciously showed a touch of anger, and an invisible aura came from his side, and even everyone in the meeting felt a chill down his spine, and in the entire meeting, only Gong Piqing lowered his head as if he was distracted, with a hideous and painful expression on his face, like a little psychopath who fell into despair......

Hades and Gaia looked left and right at what was in his hand, then touched him with their elbows at the same time, and the moment he raised his head, the invisible stance dissipated, as if a magnetic field that could make everyone's hairs and hair stand on end suddenly disappeared.

"World Tree, do you approve of this result?" The head of the Gaia group asked.

Gong Piqing panicked, because he was just like he was distracted in class and then suddenly called up by the teacher to answer the question, he didn't even know what the teacher asked, how could he answer?

"They just said that let's go back and discuss it first, first focus on the energy that can be found at present, and then consider going to the country of machinery if we really can't find energy, do you recognize it?" Hades said from his mind with his mental power.

"Good! Yes, of course! This is simply the best solution at the moment! Gong Piqing said with a smiling face, "Didn't the Hades just say that they were going out to find some food and water, we couldn't bring it back this time, next time, tomorrow, even tonight!" Taking advantage of the darkness, I went out with Hades to find food and water! ”

Gaia next to him raised his hand again, "Me! I'll go with you! ”

Gong Piqing and the Hades King once again turned their heads to look at him in unison, and said in unison: "When the two of us go out, you stay and look after the house!" ”

Gaia lowered her head with an aggrieved expression, clasped her hands, fought with her thumbs, and muttered, "Good, good...... You two go and I'll stay at home...... But I don't know what it's like out there now......"
