The Shinigami in the Unforgiven, Chapter 51: As long as there are no bottom lines, there is no fear of threats. Mayuri Kurotsuchi resides in the Scientific Research Palace, located atop a cylinder 653 meters above the ground.
This symbolizes that he holds the same status as the Espada and other Arrancar.
As its name suggests, the Scientific Research Palace is responsible for developing various scientific products, such as games, electricity, the internet, and robots.
The core personnel inside are still the same group of Shinigami from the original Research and Development Institute.
When Mayuri Kurotsuchi defected, he didn't forget to bring his entire gang with him.
He transformed the Scientific Research Palace into a state within a state, forbidding anyone from entering it without authorization.
This is why Tier Harribel cannot trust him.
They bid farewell to Nelliel and Sonído at the lowest level of the Scientific Research Palace.
Darkness shrouded this place.
Thick stone pillars support the gray roof, and the ground is covered with dark-colored flooring.
The air here is always cold and damp because no sunlight shines on it year-round. Rose looked around and said, "That guy was definitely hiding something; the upper level is so tightly compressed."
Despite its large size, the Scientific Research Palace is actually the same as the Great Spirit Book Library; only the top and bottom 20 meters of the hundreds-of-meters-long cylindrical structure are hollowed out.
The Fairy Tree Romance
Those in the middle are all hard rocks.
Rose originally wanted to Sonído the top floor, but the space there was too oppressive, and forcing his way in would definitely cause a lot of noise.
In that case, the infiltration mission would be a complete failure, and the only option would be to go down to the lower levels.
"Be careful," Tier Harribel cautioned, unaware that she was being watched, and jogged forward.
The internal structure of the cylinders is the same, consisting of elevators and stairs, and they need to run up the stairs.
I hadn't run more than a few steps when I saw a very cute doll lying on the ground.
Sun-Sun caught a glimpse, raised her right hand, covered her mouth with her sleeve, and said, "Luckily, we didn't let Emilou come along."
"Yes."
Rose chimed in, picking up the plush toy, "Otherwise, that guy would definitely have kicked this cute toy away."
"..." Tier Harribel fell silent.
Sun-Sun's eyes widened as well.
Rose seemed to hear a wire snap, but hadn't reacted yet.
A large cloud of green gas suddenly erupted from the ground, engulfing the three people.
Tier Harribel reacted quickly, swiftly drawing her sword and swinging it, the powerful pressure of the blade dispersing the approaching gas.
"Oh no," she thought to herself.
Her waving gesture helped her avoid inhaling any potential poison, but it caught her Sun-Sun, who should have been able to avoid it, in the process.
The gas moves with the wind; the stronger her sword pressure, the faster it spreads.
" Rose, Sun-Sun."
She called out.
The two of them didn't react and stood there blankly.
Tier Harribel's heart sank, and she simply stood there motionless, pretending to have been tricked.
bite.
An elevator descended from above, while a protruding stone pillar beside it rose up, revealing the Mayuri Kurotsuchi inside.
His hairstyle was changed to a deep blue afro, and the fake skin on his face was still black and white, only the shape had changed.
A black T-shape is in the center of the face, while the rest of the face is white, including two spiral-shaped protrusions that resemble ears.
The large, round, golden hole is quite disgusting.
He stepped out of the elevator. "Dealing with idiots really does require using idiot traps, hey, Nemu."
"You're right, Lord Mayuri."
Nemu Kurotsuchi of something else; her hairstyle had also been styled into a striking afro, which, combined with the indifferent expression on her delicate face, looked very discordant.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi glanced at the three female Arrancar, not understanding why they had invaded the Scientific Research Palace, but adhering to the principle of treating guests with the utmost hospitality, he decided to treat them well with the highest-level anatomical and drug experiments.
His fingers began to fidget restlessly, and he said in a villainous, fanatical tone, "Carry them up. It's rare to have Espada delivered to our doorstep; it would be such a waste not to dissect and study them."
"Yes, Mayuri."
Nemu Kurotsuchi echoed, then walked up, her thick, high heels making a soft clattering sound on the ground.
As she approached Rose, Tier Harribel suddenly attacked, grabbing her by the neck and growling, "Don't move."
With a slight exertion of force, blue veins bulged from the fair skin of his neck.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi clicked his tongue and shook his head, saying, "Still a step behind. He's Espada after all, unlike those two idiots."
" Mayuri Kurotsuchi, give them the antidote, or I'll kill this woman."
Tier Harribel issued a threat.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi contracted his pupils, and two beams of laser light shot out from his eyes.
She grabbed Nemu Kurotsuchi and quickly dodged, leaving two streaks of molten lava on the ground.
"You bastard." Tier Harribel's face darkened; she hadn't expected this guy to be so disrespectful to his subordinates.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi her head and said, "Do you think you can threaten me? If you want to save them, you'd better let me draw a vial of blood, and you'll have to draw their blood too."
You barged into my Scientific Research Palace out of nowhere and think you can get away unscathed? You've really underestimated me.
"..."
Tier Harribel pursed her lips, sighed helplessly, and said, "When did you realize we were coming?"
"You think you can avoid my detection by not touching the top level? Honestly, I have nothing in common with idiots like you."
Mayuri Kurotsuchi sighed. Szayelaporro was a bit narcissistic, but he was still half as smart as Szayelaporro, unlike these people who were completely brainless.
He closes off the top level while ignoring the bottom level, simply because there's no need to close off the bottom level.
There were clearly no surveillance cameras on the lower level.
Tier Harribel didn't quite understand; she didn't realize she was being watched.
With the Espada ' Spiritual Sense, this is impossible.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi spread his hands and said, "I'm not an elementary school teacher. I'm not going to explain the principles to you one by one. If you want to learn, you'll have to start from kindergarten again."
"Will you agree to the deal? If you don't, in a few minutes they will suffer lifelong consequences."
"I promise."
Tier Harribel quickly agreed, saying, "Release them first."
"Do you take me for someone else? Of course, we'll have your blood drawn first."
Mayuri Kurotsuchi's attitude was firm; he ordered, " Nemu, prepare to use the Espada's special blood-drawing needle on her."
Nemu Kurotsuchi couldn't reply; her neck was still being firmly gripped.
After thinking for a moment, Tier Harribel released her grip. Without evidence, she couldn't bring herself to kill Mayuri Kurotsuchi.
Nemu Kurotsuchi landed on the ground, took a few heavy breaths, and took out a specially made blood-drawing needle from the alternate dimension inside her skirt.
The syringe was the size of a three-year-old boy's arm, and the needle was as thick as an adult's middle finger.
Tier Harribel pursed her lips.
"Please roll up your sleeves."
Nemu Kurotsuchi gently reassured her, "Don't worry, I have a lot of experience with blood draws."
Tier Harribel rolled up her sleeves.
Nemu Kurotsuchi jabbed the needle in hard, the tip piercing her brown Hierro, and pulled it back, sucking away the blood.
Such a brutal method would probably have killed a normal person.
Tier Harribel remained calm and silent as she watched the tube of blood being drawn and the needle being pulled out.
The wound actually healed.
It wasn't her High-Speed Regeneration that was working, but rather the needle.
Nemu Kurotsuchi tucked the needle under her skirt, then took out two small, gentle needles and drew their blood.
After finishing his work, Mayuri Kurotsuchi said, "We'll take the elevator up. The antidote will pop up from the floor. Take it and leave. If we continue forward, I can't guarantee your safety."
"Hmm." Tier Harribel replied indifferently. If the other party did not keep their promise, she would not mind tearing off the mask of civility and destroying the Scientific Research Palace.
Seriously, how does this guy always seem to anticipate his next move?
She had just been thinking of waiting for them to take the medicine so she could turn on them and steal their blood.
Before she could even struggle, the other party had already cut off her path.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi turned around with satisfaction; the needle was attached to Surveillance Bacteria —that was the real highlight.
Before the Surveillance Bacteria die naturally, Tier Harribel's every move will be monitored by Nemu Kurotsuchi.
This will also help us figure out why they suddenly infiltrated.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi did not believe that it was just out of boredom.
Watching the two of them leave in the elevator.
Tier Harribel withdrew her gaze and scanned the surrounding floor, noticing a crack in the smooth floor and a small bottle slowly rising from it.
She picked them up, poured out two pills, and fed one to each person.
The two people, who had been in a daze, swallowed the medicine and suddenly came back to life.
"What is that?" Rose shouted, raising his hand to wave it away, only to find that the green gas was gone.
Sun-Sun couldn't help but say, "You idiot, just like Emilou, why did you pick up the dolls from the enemy's headquarters?"
"But if such a cute doll appears on the street, wouldn't anyone be curious and pick it up?"
The tall Rose weakly uttered, his face full of anger, "Damn it, that guy is so insidious."
Sun-Sun slapped her forehead. "Good heavens, why did she have to give her companion such a pig-like brain?"
"Let's go." Tier Harribel didn't blame Rose; seeing that they were alright, she suggested leaving.
Rose was stunned and said, "Aren't we going to continue the investigation?"
"It's all been exposed, what's the point of investigating anymore?"
Sun-Sun grumbled, noticing that Tier Harribel's complexion wasn't good, and quickly said with concern, "Lady Tier Harribel, please don't let such a fool's mistake upset your health."
Rose quickly dropped the doll; she cared more about Tier Harribel than that. "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
"I don't care, I don't blame you."
Tier Harribel green eyes shone with tenderness. Contrary to her aloof appearance, she cared deeply for them and regarded them as her own sisters. "Our actions were exposed from the very beginning. I underestimated Mayuri Kurotsuchi."
Let's not talk here anymore, let's go.
"Okay." Sun-Sun nodded.
Tier Harribel Sonído and left, returning to the lobby on the second floor of the Great Spirit Book Library. The excessive blood loss had left her weak in the legs, and she nearly collapsed upon arrival.
Sun-Sun hurriedly helped her up, asking anxiously, "Lady Tier Harribel, are you alright?"
"Could it be that he did something to you to make us go back to normal?"
"It's nothing, I just didn't eat well tonight, and I feel a little dizzy."
Tier Harribel shook her head, straightened up, patted her head, and said, "Don't overthink it, go back to sleep."
Sun-Sun bit her lip and said, "Then let me take you back."
You're exaggerating.
Tier Harribel waved her hand away, took a few deep breaths, and slowly walked back to her room.
