What is all this about?
Standing in the empty Midnight Court, Lu Xin and his family did not speak for a long time.
Above the head, a man wearing a judge's robe was hanged in the hall, still swaying gently with the wind blowing in from outside.
There was silence all around, and there was a sneaky feeling in many dark and invisible corners.
It seemed like someone was hiding in those corners, secretly watching him.
But if you mobilize your attention to observe, you will find that this is just your illusion, and the entire court is empty.
Sword Bearer is one of Thirteen Ultimates.
The ultimate has represented the highest level creature in humankind's understanding of spiritual power, the top of the food chain.
However, as the ultimate, he had already been killed in his own Mental Palace, and his body was still controlled by someone?
If the ultimate is said to have died long ago.
So, what is going on with the pollution Midnight Court that has affected almost the entire world?
What will controlled Sword Bearer to attack Qinggang just now?
Lu Xin Thinking about these complex issues, he suddenly realized:
The behavior of Sword Bearer is very similar to that of the madmen, or in other words, demented people, who were all over the world thirty years ago.
They all have a complete appearance and body like humans, and have the ability to run and walk.
However, their core has disappeared. They appear to be humans, but in fact they are just zombies...
Sword Bearer just now, isn't it the ultimate level of walking dead?
For the first time, when Lu Xin was with his family, he actually felt a faint sense of fear.
"Huh..."
After a while, someone sighed softly, it was Mom.
As if she had adjusted her mood, she slowly turned around in Midnight Court, scanning all the arrangements here intentionally or unintentionally, and then walked gently outside the gate, raised her head and looked into the sky. The pair of eyes in the sky had disappeared.
One eye was shattered by Qinggang, and the other one disappeared with a satisfied expression.
There was only one round of Crimson Moon left in the sky, and a few stars hidden in the red moonlight.
"It's really weird."
Mom turned around and faced his father and sister who also looked curious.
Smiling slightly, she said softly, "Now, I can't understand what's going on. Some things are beyond my understanding."
"But it's more interesting this way, isn't it?"
She smiled softly and nodded, as if to reassure her family. "Just take your time to find the answer."
"Yes."
Lu Xin also couldn't bear the depressing feeling. He nodded slightly and said, "Do you have any clues now?"
"Yes."
Mom glanced at the sky, where the pair of eyes disappeared, and said softly, "At first, I thought that those eyes were left by my good sister codenamed Black Queen to peek into your secrets. But now, I can still be sure that those eyes are to peek into your secrets, but I can't guarantee whether they were really left by my sister in the sky..."
"These things don't seem to be something she can do."
"But it must be related to her mirror, so she must know something."
"Go and ask her, won't you know?"
"..."
Mom said it very easily, but Lu Xin suddenly looked up at Mom and said seriously:
"Don't go alone."
Although we are not sure what this is, judging from the fate of Sword Bearer, there is a terrible force involved.
This kind of power can even kill the ultimate and turn him into a mentally retarded person.
Therefore, Lu Xin is also very worried that Mom, who used to like to leave easily, accidentally caused a big trouble.
The last time she left, she was injured. If she ventures to explore those powers again this time, who knows whether she will face...
... something more terrifying?
Mom understood Lu Xin's thoughts and was slightly surprised, then smiled and nodded.
"Then let's go together..."
The family members nodded slowly, and a preliminary consensus was reached on this matter, and Lu Xin also breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he turned back and looked at the wilderness that seemed to have been completely turned over by a bomb of unknown yield, and the Midnight Court located in the wilderness, which seemed to be real and yet seemed to be an illusion, blending with the night under Crimson Moon, and said softly:
"In any case, this threat has been resolved, so what we need to consider now is..."
After a pause, he looked at Midnight Court: "... How should we move it back to Qinggang?"
Although a truck came over, it seemed that the truck could not hold such a big thing...
A bit difficult to handle.
After all, this is also a murder scene, and it would not be good to leave it in the wilderness like this.
Just when Lu Xin and his family were discussing what to do with Sword Bearer, they were hundreds of miles away from Qinggang.
On the flat wilderness, under Crimson Moon.
Old Director and No. 7 next to the jeep were curiously looking at the man who walked out of the grass.
Similarly, the man's eyes under the wide brim of the hat were also looking at Old Director with some scrutiny and curiosity.
"How did you recognize me?"
The man held a gun in his hand, pointed it straight at Old Director's face, and asked a little curiously.
"The watch on your hand."
Old Director was pointed at a gun, but his expression was quite relaxed, and he smiled and said, "Those are the first batch of special pollution protective gear made by Research Institute."
"I once saw the pattern introduction on Research Institute."
"Later, because all kinds of special pollution protection equipment have been updated, no one wears such old items for a long time."
"..."
"Oh?"
The man glanced sideways, glanced at his black watch, then nodded with a smile and said, "Yes."
"In fact, this thing has no actual use, it is more of a commemorative significance."
"But I'm curious. Are you not surprised at all when you see me appearing?"
"..."
"It's a bit unexpected, but it's not something that shows on my face."
Old Director looked into his eyes and said calmly, "In fact, I have been waiting for you to show up."
"When Crimson Moon incident appeared, the first generation of researchers in Research Institute disappeared en masse. This is incomprehensible in itself."
"Some people say that you died in the chaos at the beginning of Crimson Moon. This explanation is reasonable."
"After all, many people did die in the chaos when Crimson Moon arrived because no one was prepared."
"Everyone is equal in the chaos, let alone the researcher closest to the pollution?"
"It's just that later I took over the information you left for research. The more I researched, the more incredible I found it..."
"Although most of the key information has been destroyed by you, you can still occasionally find some clues..."
"..."
He spoke slowly, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his voice became stronger.
"You have long expected that Crimson Moon will come, or..."
"Crimson Moon's arrival was controlled by you?"
"..."
"Boom..."
Next to No. 7, listening to the conversation between the two of them, his heart suddenly sank slightly.
She raised her head in shock and didn't make any sound, but thunder suddenly sounded in her mind.
How did Crimson Moon incident happen, what is the source of the Beginning...
Everyone has thought about this question.
However, now she suddenly heard that these two people really talked about this, and she couldn't help but feel fear in her heart.
It is obvious that he is the one with ability.
But in front of these two people, she always felt helpless and unable to control her fate.
On the other side, the person who pointed the gun at Old Director said slowly after being silent for a while:
"From now on, especially in the eyes of you second-generation researchers, this can no longer be considered a secret."
"You can find it, it's normal."
"The kid who jumped off the building probably discovered this, so he made this choice..."
"It's just a pity, he is really good..."
"..."
"..."
Listening to the other party's admission, Old Director's pupils also shrank slightly.
Under his somewhat rigid face, there seemed to be some strange emotions surging, and many questions were about to blurt out.
But his strong will allowed him to resist such unnecessary emotional fluctuations. He quickly sorted it out in his mind for a few seconds and found the issues that he should be most concerned about. He slowly said, "Were you the ones who conducted the experiment on No. 9?"
The man with the gun didn't answer.
After pausing for a few seconds, he said softly, "We will indeed make some arrangements and adjustments for some key people."
Old Director's face became extremely cold, and he suddenly said, "For what?"
Even though he had deliberately controlled his emotions, his tone was still a bit serious when he asked this question.
"Of course..."
The other party slowly raised his head, looked at Old Director calmly, and said, "It's for the Beginning's plan..."
Old Director couldn't help but move his body, and No. 7 next to him suddenly became slightly nervous.
The man holding the gun immediately tightened his grip on the gun handle, and as if he had started, he no longer said anything concealed, "Whether it is you, Research Institute, or other researchers, they should have discovered some problems."
"Many things do happen for a reason."
"Crimson Moon will not appear in the sky suddenly, and Mental Pollution will not suddenly sweep the world."
"Everything always has a source..."
"..."
At this point, he paused slightly, and then said softly, "What I can tell you is that it is indeed like this."
"The Beginning's secret and final plan do exist."
"Your guesses are all correct..."
"..."
"Shua..."
Old Director After listening to his calm words, he suddenly raised his head and looked at him, his pupils narrowing slightly.
In the wilderness, the swaying wind blew over, whimpering between them.
Old Director seemed to want to say something, but held back. He just looked at the dark muzzle of the opponent's gun and frowned tightly.
"That's why I came here to find you."
Looking at the corners of Old Director's slightly twitching eyes, the man with the gun paused slightly and whispered, "After we left, many researchers in the world who had lost their restraints were frantically trying their own ideas. However, not many people have achieved results. The kid who jumped down from the building was a surprise, and you are also a person who makes people feel surprised."
"Especially now that you've reached the point where you're a threat to our plans if we don't come to recruit you."
"So, I came here to ask if you are interested in talking to us?"
When he said this, his arm seemed to tremble slightly because he had raised it for too long, and he sighed softly:
"It's actually not good to threaten people with a gun. I'm tired of holding a gun all the time."
"But if you refuse my invitation, I can only..."
"..."
His finger was hooked on the trigger, as if he would exert force at any time.
And Old Director, with a very gloomy face, just stood there silently, as if he was posing a great threat.
Number 7 was even more silent, turning his head slightly and looking at Old Director.
Even if some of the words she just heard from Old Director made her feel extremely uncomfortable, she would still listen to Old Director.
She was even expecting in her heart that Old Director would suddenly give her an order.
It would be better if it comes with a little request.
Even if this person feels dangerous to her, she will not hesitate to take action against him to help Old Director escape from trouble.
But what I didn't expect was that after Old Director was silent for a long time, he suddenly nodded and smiled:
"Okay!"
There is a problem. Xiaohong, the red-headed turtle, is so voracious. As soon as the turtle food is sprinkled, he rushes to it and wants to finish it completely. Xiaobai, who has a white spot on his back, and Xiaomei, who has a perfect tortoise shell, are slowly getting excited and may not be able to react in half an hour. What should I do? There can't be a situation where one of them is starving to death, right?
