Barrier of Light

The old house on Lion Lane has never been an ordinary residence.

Lu Cheng's lion sobering experiment has been carried out secretly here for many years... The ultimate goal of the experiment is to extract pure spiritual extraordinary elements. However, this epic problem was not solved until Lao Lu died, but in the process of the experiment , but derived many other inventions.

[Lantern], which is a consumable item, is one of them.

The potion in Madam's hands now can be regarded as the result of experiments. There are many kinds of similar mind-dissolving agents in the Five Continents Council, and there are many that can deal with extraordinary people, but such efficient and fast ones are quite difficult to find.

Gu Shen put his hand on his senior sister's shoulder.

"With her current strength, how can she possibly fight against the [Apostle]? There is no way I can watch her die."

The lady looked out of the courtyard and said: "Even Yingji can only block it a little. What we can do is not to waste time... The sooner we get out of trouble, the sooner Yingji can get out."

Her eyes were decisive.

When the [Apostle] attacks, only Song Ci can resist.

If he can't withstand the [Apostle's] attack, then there's no use if Lu Nanjin goes...

Although he didn't know how far the battle in the house outside was going, Gu Shen knew very well that if high-level transcendental beings started fighting freely, the building without strong logic materials would be destroyed in an instant.

"This is the territory of Dongzhou. High-sequence experts from the three institutes will arrive soon. The [Apostle's] goal tonight is to kill me... Regardless of success or not, this kind of transgression will arouse the anger of Dongzhou. " Lu Nanzhi quickly packed up. She was holding a bronze box. This was Lao Lu's relic and the only thing she wanted to take with her during this trip.

Her train of thought has always been clear.

escape.

Escape to a safe place.

Most of them have [Frost River] and [Towering Tree]. They are the real strong ones who can intervene in the battle of [Apostles].

The purpose of sending the [Apostle] in Zhongzhou is very straightforward. As long as the mission is completed and the wife is killed, the dispute over the bill will be settled, and the subsequent "trouble" will not be called trouble.

As for Dongzhou’s anger...

They don't care.

…

…

There are several floors on the inside of the master bedroom in the old house, and the joints are not strong.

After tapping hard on the secret compartment of the bookshelf, the secret passage in the wing suddenly opened——

This is an emergency passage leading to an underground pipe in the old city.

"Below are the underground pipelines in the old city. During the early years of city planning, Huazhi was responsible for completing this project for the government..." Madam held the bronze box and began to climb down, while Gu Shen held the senior sister on his arm. The entrance to the passage was very narrow. , but it was enough to pass, and soon we came to a dark and humid environment.

Do not you know why.

The image of the holographic glasses is no longer displayed.

Chu Ling's voice also disappeared... It should be that the network link in [Deep Sea] was forced to disconnect. This is a rare thing. The apostle can actually disconnect the network link in a certain area?

The holographic glasses had no effect, so Gu Shen simply took them off and directly summoned the blazing fire between his eyebrows.

A faint flame burned, and the darkness in front of him was suddenly illuminated.

In front of you is a long underground tunnel, which is quite narrow and exudes a damp earthy smell.

You have to bend down to squeeze through this underground tunnel... But Lu Nanzhi is very fast and she is very skilled. She walked quickly and said: "Old Lu took me through this tunnel... here It’s a useless line that disappears from the planning map. If you walk a little further, you can see a well opening leading to the ground.”

Gu Shen nodded.

He supported Senior Sister Nan Jin and prepared to follow, but as soon as he squatted down, a familiar voice sounded in his ears.

"The network link to [Deep Sea] has been cut off——"

Chu Ling said: "I have changed the 'spiritual link' now... The underground pipeline map of the old city is being transmitted."

The lady noticed that the young man behind her was startled, and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

"……fine."

Gu Shen's expression remained unchanged.

He asked silently in his heart: "The network link is disconnected. Is it the ability of the [Apostle]?"

"Yes. The initial guess is that it has the ability to expand the field."

Chu Ling whispered: "It has been confirmed... There are two apostles who appeared in Dadu this time. One of them is fighting with Song Ci outside. The disconnection of the network link should be caused by another apostle."

As soon as the attack broke out, [Apostle] cut off the deep sea network in this area.

obviously.

This is a quick fix.

"Through signal transmission feedback, it can be preliminarily determined... that the second [Apostle]'s domain covers a circular domain with a diameter of five kilometers, with Lion Alley as the center. This is a quite terrifying spread range. If you want to leave the domain on foot, range, under such terrain conditions, it may take an hour." Chu Ling gave his calculation results: "Due to the complete blockade of the deep water area information files, the characteristics of this field, and the second [Apostle] I can’t deduce the intention at all. But it can be said with certainty that sneaking underground cannot guarantee absolute safety.”

Gu Shen frowned and asked, "You mean... the second apostle might catch up?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

Chu Lin paused and said: "Because the [Field] has been expanded, you may not be able to escape perception by sneaking underground in the old city... I can only say that continuing to move forward here is a gamble. Do you want to take a gamble? What?"

"bet."

Gu Shen didn't hesitate... He had no choice.

This is a domain that stretches for a full five thousand meters. If you don't leave the coverage of the domain, you will be noticed by the apostle as soon as you return to the ground.

Hiding underground, although it is inconvenient to move, at least you can buy more time.

But in fact, he also knew that... this was just a delaying tactic. It was really a fool's errand to reach the end point from the underground.

That apostle would not leave much time for himself.

"Can you help me contact the outside world?"

The network link in the field is cut off, but the spiritual link between Gu Shen and Chu Ling is still maintained, so he only needs a transfer station to contact the teacher.

"Judging from the movement trajectory of the map that is updated in real time... the Zhou Ji people are already heading here." Chu Ling's tone did not fluctuate, "Another person with the title [Shuangchuan] is also on the way. It is expected that it will take more time for them to arrive. ten minutes."

ten minutes?

Gu Shen took a deep breath. There was no sound in the underground tunnel. This dead silence... at this moment, it actually gave people a sense of security. He wished it could stay so quiet here.

Ten minutes usually goes quickly.

But at this moment, every second is slow.

"We're almost there." Madam turned around to remind: "The wellhead is ahead, and we can leave the ground."

"No..." Gu Shen whispered: "Let's change the route and keep moving forward. Don't leave the underground. I will lead the way next."

The lady was startled.

She turned around and saw Gu Shen's eyes and the flickering flame between his eyebrows.

I felt a little dazed for a moment.

This young man is the [Key] chosen by Mr. Turing, and he is also the future leader of the Ancient Prose Society who has high hopes.

"……good."

Lu Nanzhi didn't ask any more questions.

She has always been a decisive person who firmly believes in her own choices and never hesitates at critical moments. At this moment, this young man has a convincing aura.

The lady turned sideways and said, "You lead the way."
