Infernal Artist

Ding dong!

A crisp voice sounded.

A line of small black characters appeared in the void:

"Mechanical City provided the newly established team 'Nightwish' with a restricted area pass and 1,000 mechanical coins."

"I wish your team will become stronger and stronger."

Collect all the fine print.

The surrounding scenes gradually became blurred and suddenly disappeared.

The next moment.

Liu Ping found himself still standing outside the huge metal building.

"This is the Machinery City? It's so high!"

Libertas looked up, only to find that he couldn't see the top of the building at all.

Liu Ping said: "Okay, we already have the pass, and we will set off immediately to find Hua Qingkong in the snow mountains."

"Yes!" Libertas nodded.

"Wait a minute - we should buy something first," Norton said.

"Are you still working with us?" Liu Ping asked.

Norton said: "There is no shortage of manpower in the Machinery City. It's hard for me to find a job alone. I might as well stick with you. If we find anything in the restricted area, it may be enough for us to live in the Machinery City."

"Okay, it seems like we are really a team." Liu Ping said with a smile.

"The machine owner gave us 1,000 machine coins. If we can buy something, it might help us move better on the snowy mountains - it doesn't take much effort." Norton suggested.

Liu Ping opened the black iron card and asked.

Indeed, as Norton said, 1,000 mechanical coins is already considered a small fortune and can be used to buy something.

"I have all the equipment here." Libertas said.

"I'm pretty much the same way - then, what else should I buy?" Liu Ping also said.

Norton slapped his ID card on the wall and said, "Follow me, I just took a fancy to something. If I can buy it, it will definitely play a big role in our operations."

The wall opens and inside is an elevator.

"Shopping? It's really boring. You should go ahead while I catch up on some sleep. Call me if you need anything." Libertas yawned.

"OK."

Liu Ping collected him into a card and put it back into the card book.

The two got on the elevator.

A few minutes later.

The elevator opens.

Outside is an extremely lively market.

Various people sat on the ground, with a stall spread out in front of them and various goods placed on the stall.

"This floor is specially used for business. Let me see, stall No. 19."

Norton was in front, Liu Ping was behind, and the two of them walked through the bustling crowd.

"We're here," Norton said.

The vendor here is a girl, sitting cross-legged on the ground with several cards next to her.

"How to sell this card?" Norton asked enthusiastically.

The girl looked at him and said, "Space card master?"

"That's right." Norton said.

"Okay, you can use this card. The number of times it can be used is three times." The girl handed the card to him so that he could inspect it carefully.

"Liu Ping, take a look." Norton handed the card to Liu Ping again.

Liu Ping held the card.

I saw a ladder drawn on the card, connecting the sun above and the moon below.

Lines of burning small characters appeared quickly:

"Treasure Digging Ladder."

"Space cards, consumption cards."

"Explanation: Using this card, a ladder will immediately appear in front of you. Climb to the top and you will arrive at another location that was previously set."

"Available for ten people at a time."

"Number of uses remaining: three times."

Liu Ping said happily: "How to sell this card?"

"1,200 mechanical coins." the girl said.

"Can you make it cheaper? We need it urgently. Just treat it as a friend." Liu Ping said.

"What are you going to do?" the girl asked.

"Go to the restricted area to save people," Liu Ping said.

"Okay then, 1,000 mechanical coins, no more," the girl said.

"Deal, I'm Liu Ping, thank you very much." Liu Ping said with a smile.

Suddenly, a deep voice sounded from behind several people.

"Wait a minute, this deal doesn't count."

Several people looked back.

I saw several people wearing black masks standing in the aisle.

The girl's expression changed and she whispered: "Yes."

She patted the card book beside her, and the "Treasure Digging Ladder" in Liu Ping's hand suddenly disappeared.

Liu Ping was a little confused and looked at Norton.

Norton also looked confused.

Those people looked at Liu Ping and Norton and said:

"Two newcomers, first of all, congratulations on creating a team."

"And, maybe you don't know, restricted area passes are not issued easily. Every one of them is in the hands of our three major teams."

"As the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty, so we don't have time to argue with you."

"Hand over your restricted area pass, and then you will be fine and can live safely in Mechanical City."

Liu Ping stood up and said: "I created the team just for this penalty area pass. I need to go to the penalty area to save a companion."

The masked man said: "It's really pitiful, but the rules are the rules, hand over the pass, otherwise you will be the one who needs to be rescued."

Norton jumped up and said: "Stop bluffing, the mechanical main sequence cannot allow you to kill people here at will."

The masked men were startled and couldn't help but laugh.

The girl who set up the stall quickly left here with her card book in her arms.

The crowd around him stayed away.

"One is nineteen years old, and the other is fourteen or fifteen years old. Tut tut, you are welcome to know the real world."

A masked man took out a card and crushed it hard.

Between the lightning and flint——

Liu Ping suddenly pulled out the red card and threw it out.

Zone pass!

Two red rays of light emerged from the void and enveloped them.

"Location: Snowy mountain north of the 'Fool 3-9612' type sequence."

"Teleport!"

he shouted.

Buzz——

A flash of red light enveloped the two men and soared into the sky, disappearing into the void without knowing where they were going.

Several masked men stood there.

"Damn it, they used the restricted area pass!" the leader gritted his teeth.

He turned his head and looked at the person who released the card before.

The man nodded and said, "A special name has been planted for them."

"Very good! Very good! How many years ago, someone dared to make me lose a restricted area pass!"

"We'll wait here - as soon as they come back, I'll take them to the lunatic asylum!"

"I will torture them crazily, put them on the iron railings of the outer wall of the asylum, and roast them with magic fire day and night!"

…

The north wind howls.

In the snowy mountains.

Two red lights fell down and turned into human figures.

Liu Ping.

Norton.

"Fortunately, you saw the opportunity quickly and we finally escaped." Norton said with a sigh of relief.

"It's a pity that I didn't get the 'Treasure Digging Ladder'," Liu Ping said.

The two people's expressions suddenly changed.

I saw lines of small black characters popping up in the void:

"After joint appraisal by the three major teams, the following matters have been determined:"

"Black Iron Card holder Liu Ping;"

"Norton, a Silver Card holder;"

"You have a certain degree of mental instability and are judged to be mental diseases, which will pose a potential threat to the order of the Mechanical City."

at the same time.

A line of small words appeared above Norton's head:

"Intermittent psychosis."

He was surprised: "What's going on? Why do I have such a name?"

Liu Ping was about to say something when he saw a line of small words popping up above his head;

"Retarded."

Weak...intellectual...

Very good, with these two names, no matter where you and Norton go, there will be problems.

Small black characters continued to appear in the void:

"In order to ensure your life safety, and for the normal operation of everything in the Mechanical City, we have made the following decision:"

"Teleport you to the lunatic asylum immediately."

Wisps of light suddenly appeared from the two identity cards and began to wrap around their bodies.

"Damn it! We're going to be teleported back!"

Norton shouted unwillingly.

He opened the card book fiercely and threw out a card.

A secret path exuding mist appeared at his feet, extending all the way to Liu Ping's feet.

However, the transmitted light still enveloped the two of them.

"No! This is a serial-level teleportation. I can't fight the machine master!"

Norton said desperately.

Liu Ping's heart moved and he cast his gaze into the void.

But I saw lines of burning small words appearing there:

"You are being forcibly recruited by Sequence: Machine Master, and your destination is the Lunatic Asylum on the 21st floor of Machine City."

"The sequence acted in good faith."

"But someone took advantage of a loophole in the rules and forced such titles on you and Norton, which may be detrimental to you."

"Do you want to complete this transmission?"

Liu Ping said: "Do you dare to stop this teleportation?"

The Heroic Spirit Operation Sequence responded: "This sequence has received the 'Fool 3-6912' sequence core card, thereby constructing a normal Evernight Sequence core, and will no longer be regarded as a foreign sequence, nor will it be suspected by any existence. "

"Therefore, this sequence can take action to veto this transmission."

"Are you sure?" Liu Ping asked.

Another line of burning small characters appeared:

"Pay attention to the tone of your words. In front of this sequence, the mechanical master is completely inadequate."

"Then stop it." Liu Ping said.

"——Block confirmed!" the heroic spirit interface said.

The next moment.

The teleported light disappeared completely from the two of them.

Liu Ping turned his head and asked Norton: "It seems that their transmission was wrong, but we can't take any chances. Do you have any way to escape from here quickly?"

Norton was stunned and quickly took out a card from the card book.

I saw constantly changing scenes appearing on the cards.

"This is my strongest space card. Even I don't know where it will teleport us." Norton said.

"It's not safe here. Once we find my friend, we will leave immediately." Liu Ping said.

He stood on the mountain and looked far into the distance.

The edge of the Fool Sequence world is full of snow-capped mountains, and it is very difficult to determine the direction.

"If Hua Qingkong wants to leave the empire's border, he must start from the secret outpost outside Hanhammer Town and head towards the depths of the snow-capped mountains."

"Deep in the snowy mountains...are the ruins of the frozen Kingdom of Ceylon."

"Yes."

Liu Ping took out a card and gently threw it out.

Bang!

The forest succubus appeared in front of him.

"Senior, can you tell where the ruins of the Kingdom of Ceylon are located?" Liu Ping asked respectfully.

The banshee looked around and first saw the name "Retard" above his head.

"Are you having trouble?" the banshee asked.

"Small things, human greed, I will make them pay sooner or later." Liu Ping grinned.

"Yes, you don't look like a retarded person."

The banshee in the forest nodded in agreement, pointed in one direction and said: "Go this way, keep moving forward, I can sense that the 'Land of Exile' is over there."

"That direction? I understand." Liu Ping said.

The banshee in the forest suddenly frowned and said, "Someone is following you and your companions. This is not good."

She took out a green leaf from the flowers and leaves on her head and touched it lightly on the heads of Liu Ping and Norton.

"Okay, from now on, no one can know your whereabouts."

The forest succubus smiled.

"Thank you, senior." Liu Ping saluted solemnly.

I am only a level 9 card master. With such a shield, I will feel much more relaxed.

the other side.

Machine City.

Several masked men were waiting, and suddenly a serious mechanical voice sounded in the air.

"Conflicts with other sequences."

"Transmission of this sequence has been rejected."

"Elevate the situation immediately."

"Please confirm whether the judgment you have made is reasonable, correct and appropriate."

"Please note."

"Don't try to deceive this sequence, otherwise you will bear all the consequences."

Several masked men stood there, looking at each other.
