Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak

The elevator that keeps descending down makes a nasty sound.

This made Xu Dong, who was standing in the elevator, frown.

Mildly obsessive-compulsive, he closed his eyes, trying to ignore the cacophony, cacophony.

The secret place after leaving the organization...... The aging of the equipment is inevitable, so it is better to bear with it.

I don't know how long it has been.

The elevator clanged and stopped.

Xu Dong opened his eyes at this time.

The slightly rusted elevator doors slid open in both directions.

A slightly dark hallway behind the door.

Xu Dong strode out and casually pressed the lock button of the elevator.

The corridor is deep and narrow, and you can only hear the sound of footsteps echoing in it.

Da Da Da ...... Da Da Da ......

The continuous echo is enough to scare the faint of heart half to death.

Xu Dong seemed to have long been used to it, and his expression did not change.

About a quarter of an hour later, he walked to a door.

It was a small, bronze door that was only half a man tall.

He bent down and slammed the door twice, then paused for a few seconds and slammed it three more times.

Three minutes later, the bronze door was pulled up.

Xu Dong bent down and walked in.

After entering the door, the space suddenly opens up.

It is a circular stage space that resembles a depression.

In the center of the recess of the space is a bronze round table.

It is surrounded by a curved staircase, or seat, that wraps around it upwards.

The color of each step is slightly different.

The curved staircase at the top of the outermost part is white, the lower part is grayish-white, the lower part is light gray, and the lowest staircase is pure black.

The color ranges from light to dark, except for the purest black staircase, each staircase is slightly damaged, and some even simply crack a hideous mouth, as if it will collapse at any time.

The ceiling of the space is extremely high, and the whole space is empty without a single column, which makes people wonder how such a large space was built.

The great sense of emptiness and depth, the broken staircase and the uniform colors finally form an indescribable solemnity and the sadness behind the curtain of the end.

Anyone who comes to such a place for the first time will probably be shocked and embarrassed.

It's not the first time Xu Dong has come, but his mood still fluctuates.

He quickly gathered his emotions and looked into the middle of the space.

Following his gaze, he could see a projector on a bronze round table in the middle of the space, projecting a picture from a certain place onto a rock wall diagonally above.

Xu Dong's former old boss Nierdo was sitting on a chair at the bronze round table, eating and drinking, while looking at the projected picture, like a salted fish.

"Coming?" Glancing back at Xu Dong, Nierdo waved his hand, "Have you eaten yet?" Would you like to eat a little? ”

Xu Dong's mouth twitched, ignoring the words of his old boss, looking up at the projection screen above, and said after a while, "The people below have all been transferred...... What are you going to do here? Ruined? ”

Nierdo couldn't help but pause, "Every time you kid comes, you come to poke my heart." ”

"It's very likely that this is a remnant of the Tertiary Period, so it's a pity to destroy it like this...... But in order to avoid the hounds of those noble lords, if it is destroyed, it will be destroyed. ”

"Noble lord...... That's a word that should be thrown into the dustbin of history. ”

Xu Dong approached and sat down, "I remember that you were also a glorious nobleman. ”

Nildo scoffed, "If those crazy brains can maintain their dignity, even after they claim to be nobles, I will nod and admit it." ”

"It's a pity that they have already broken this last bottom line."

He looked at Xu Dong with a gloomy expression, "I got news from my side that the imperial capital has begun to try to activate the 'Homeland'. ”

"So fast?" Xu Dong couldn't help but be stunned, "I didn't pass the parliamentary resolution...... Just do it directly, is it really allowed? ”

"I said Xu Dong, you still think of them too well."

"What do they have to do now to hurry? It's life! ”

"When disaster strikes, they don't think about how to resist and save themselves, they just want to escape from this star land."

"What does it matter to them whether they live or die?" Nildo sighed, "If there was even the slightest possibility above, I wouldn't have quit so early." ”

"Sir Sinaick was kicked out of parliament, forced to leave the imperial capital, and the entire Sinaick family disappeared without a trace."

"The legendary female swordsman Dong Ningyuan has inexplicably one more treason, and I am afraid that she has already killed the empire at this moment."

"Fei Yu, the president of the Academy of Sciences, was even removed from his post for investigation...... Later, he took a few students and went to the wilderness. ”

"Wilderness? The Iger Savannah? Xu Dong blurted out.

"Yes and no, anyway, out of the empire, it's either a wilderness or a wasteland, and none of the organizations that can shrink in these places are simple." Nierdo rubbed his nose with a little headache, "The demands of these organizations are actually similar, and they can be combined." ”

"But the biggest problem is that there's a lack of a strong figure out there."

"There are too many people and too many people to control."

Xu Dong's expression was strange, "Aren't you okay too?" ”

Nierdo looked at Xu Dong in surprise, paused, and shook his head, "I can't, I'm too lazy, it's okay to come up with ideas, but it's not okay to be the leader." ”

glanced at Xu Dong again, "You can't do it either, you are too serious, too demanding of perfection in things, too inducing." ”

Xu Dong didn't get angry when he heard this, "So you created the Secret Society, always kept neutral, and at most only delivered news to those peripheral organizations?" ”

Nierdo smiled bitterly, "How do you clean up my platform?" ”

"To be honest, I don't really have much hope for the future, because sometimes I think that those nobles who are timid and afraid of death are right."

"There is nothing to resist in the catastrophe, it is better to escape in advance."

"But let me leave my relatives, my friends, my comrades-in-arms...... My enemies fled alone...... I really can't do it. ”

"Because of this, although I am very disgusted with the maggots in the imperial capital, I have not taken the initiative to fight against it."

"Although they only want to escape on their own...... But at least that's human blood, right? ”

Xu Dong shook his head, "No, maggots are not humans, and I don't admit that those guys are human blood." ”

"Even if they have no humanity, only the beastly nature of a cage trapped beast, no matter how cruel they are, I will think they are human."

"It's a pity that they don't even have animal nature, they just want to escape, and they treat hundreds of millions of people as nothing, how can such maggots be called people?"

"What's more...... "What's more," he looked up at the projection screen above, "not to mention that there are variables now. ”

The projection screen has a very distant perspective, and at first glance it is a large area of old-fashioned buildings.

At the bottom right of the screen is a nondescript green frame, which is the library in the old town.

Hearing Xu Dong say this, Nierdo put down the wine glass in his hand and looked at Xu Dong very seriously, "You definitely didn't come to chat with me, what do you want to do?" ”

"The body that came down is black-haired and black-eyed." Xu Dong was silent for a while, then pointed to his hair and said, "Coincidentally, so am I." ”

"Maybe that one has some kind of preference for the Dongyue people?"

"Are you gambling? It's not like you. Nierdo touched his hair, "It's a pity that I'm not of Dongyue blood, otherwise I would have liked to try." "The Tibetan mountain race of the Tibetan Mountain Empire is generally brown hair, slightly reddish brown eyes, and the color does not match at all.

"By the way, didn't you ask Mu Qingqing of the Mu family to go over? She also has Dongyue ancestry, so why not let her try? After a moment of regret, Nildo asked again.

Hearing this question, Xu Dong's expression was subtle, and it took him a while before he pointed to his head, "There is suddenly a white-haired girl next to that one, and there is also an extra memory in my mind...... It's as if the white-haired girl has always been by that one's side. ”

"It's a bit stiff, it's not sleek, it's even traceable...... This should not be the means of that one. ”

"Coupled with what Hewson said, a monster beyond the unspeakable was forced to let go of Verlando because of the voice of a young girl."

"So I asked Mu Qingqing to hold back."

"You guess it's the white-haired girl?" Neil Duoran, "Afraid that the white-haired girl has malicious intentions towards Mu Qingqing?" That's why you want to defy the law first? ”

"But your idea is right, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case."

"But ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xu Dong stretching out his hand, "I have made up my mind, so be it." ”

Get up and leave.

But he heard Nierdo whisper behind him, "If you can come back alive, I'll tell you what I saw back then." ”

Xu Dong was stunned, did not respond, and finally left.

In the empty space, only the faint sigh of Nildo remained.
