Chapter 52: Heartbeat

Pitch-black cars drive on the wide avenue to the outer suburbs.

Inside the car.

Fang Wu looked at Principal Zhang Hongtao, who was driving beside him, looked out of the increasingly empty car window, and asked:

"Headmaster, you should be able to tell me where you're going next, right?"

"Of course it's a good place!"

β€œ......”

Seeing that President Zhang was also playing dumb riddles like Professor Xiao, Fang Wu suddenly felt a little helpless.

Seeing this, Zhang Hongtao chuckled twice, and then he was slightly positive:

"Classmate Fang Wu, it's not that I have to play dumb riddles with you, the main thing is that the place we are going to next is also top secret in the alliance."

"Generally speaking, it's hard to get a chance to go even to a master trainer."

"I'm also stained with your light."

Zhang Hongtao looked at the handsome young man beside him with a smile in his eyes, and said with relief: "...... Don't think too much about it, you just need to think of the place you want to go next as a rare place to get it. ”

'......Where is the land of chance?'

Fang Wu raised his eyebrows slightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Principal Zhang Hongtao, who was driving beside him, and groaned slightly, but another doubt rose in his heart:

...... Since it was a top-secret place that even Principal Zhang had never visited, how could he take himself there?

But soon,

Fang Wu knew the answer......

When the vehicle is completely out of the city, and when it turns off the highway and enters a deserted path that is clearly untouched by vehicles.

"Are you ready?"

"Huh?"

A brilliant blue light suddenly filled Fang Mist's field of vision.

The next second.

When Fang Wu opened his narrowed eyes with a little vigilance, he was already in a dim mine tunnel.

The car was still moving smoothly.

Inside the tunnel, an unknown glowing ore is set against a backdrop of shadowy white light that is approaching the ......

Has the space changed?

So that blue light just now......

Is it teleportation?

Wrong.

Should be......

"Swap venues?"

Fang Wu's expression narrowed slightly, and he stretched out his hand to soothe the scorching white mist that was surging like substance on his side and the healing ball that kept trembling in the palm of his left hand, and looked at Zhang Hongtao.

"Not bad."

Zhang Hongtao did not deny it, and the vehicle quickly drove out of the tunnel completely.

The world in front of me suddenly opened up.

As far as the eye can see, there is a verdant meadow dotted with scattered flowers, and in the distance is a sea of lush forests and tall rock walls that resemble a city wall.

Fang Wu stepped out of the saddle and looked around along the rock wall.

Except for the tunnel behind him.

It was clear that he was now in a vast ravine surrounded by rock walls.

It's just that......

Fang Wu looked up at the sky...... Different from the yellowing fluorescent ore in the tunnel, it seems to close the dome in the belly of the mountain, and its light source is a tangled and scattered line, like a rhizome like a 'light vine'.

These 'light vines' illuminate the entire valley, making Fang Wu feel as if he was really under the hot sun.

"That's a ......"

Fang Wu didn't know what words to use to describe it for a while, but Principal Zhang Hongtao, who got off the bus from the other side, quickly came back to his senses:

"It's an unexpected sight, well, the base should be behind the woods, let's go."

"Okay."

Fang Wu nodded, and followed Zhang Hongtao, who was in the lead, and walked forward.

All the way unharmed.

At least in Fang Wu's current perception, he didn't find anything wrong...... Except for the excessive silence of the forest.

But it's normal.

After all, it's not a real wilderness, and it's common sense to be quiet.

Fang Wu didn't think much about it.

followed Zhang Hongtao through this not small forest, and soon, the two came to their destination...... A small base station with a metallic glow.

The two glanced at each other, and Zhang Hongtao took the lead, approaching the front of the base station.

Whewβ€”β€”

The metal door slid open in both directions, and a middle-aged woman in a white lab coat, with her hair tied and gold-rimmed glasses, apparently waiting at the side, strode out.

"Director Luo?"

"Principal Zhang, and... Fang Wu......"

Director Luo nodded in response, I don't know if it was an illusion, Fang Wu felt that the other party glanced at him twice, and then raised his hand to greet him: "My name is Luo Ning, please come with me." ”

Fang Wu and Zhang Hongtao followed this 'Director Luo' and stepped straight into the middle of the empty base station, in the center of a circle surrounded by guardrails on three sides.

Followed by.

With a 'sonorous' sound, the 'center of the circle' slowly sank in a slight vibration.

Fang Wu looked around meaningfully.

Soon, as the circular elevator gradually stalled, you were greeted by rows of crystal counters of different sizes.

Fang Wu roughly calculated, horizontal three vertical six plus one, a total of 19 counters.

There are a few of them, though, that seem to be empty.

"What is in this is all the treasures that my father has collected over the years." Luo Ning introduced: "Originally, there were 19 pieces in total, but over the years, some of them have been transferred one after another, and now there are only 7 pieces left. ”

Hearing this, Fang Wu vaguely knew the reason why he was brought here.

Director Luo Ning's next words also verified this: "And among these 7 secret treasures, classmate Fang Wu, you can choose any one." ”

"It's really a 'place of chance'......"

groaned in his heart, Fang Wu didn't pretentiously ask the specific reason.

I thanked him.

Fang Wu followed Luo Ning and moved to the square counter in the first row.

Zhang Hongtao naturally followed.

But just the things in this first counter made Fang Wu's heart beat faster.
