Chapter 135 Black Tower Top Secret (Subscribe)

"Outside the tower?"

Su Lun listened to the vocabulary, and after a moment of reflection in his mind, he realized what Number Nineteen said.

No, everyone told me that the underground world is only a city in Old Lingdon, what does she mean by "outside the tower" now?

As a time traveler, Su Lun hadn't formed some solid impressions in his mind, so he thought of something in an instant.

No wonder he asked everywhere, harvested countless memory fragments, and no one had ever heard of the original owner of the "Regardy Family" in Old Lingdon.

It turned out that they were not aboriginals at all, they were sent from outside?

"If you want to ask about your missing memory, sorry, I don't know."

Number 9 continued: "I'm just one of the people in charge of escorting and expelling the 'exiles' sent from outside the Black Tower to the inner city. It just so happened that I was the one who escorted you when you were sent down."

Those ones?

Su Lun keenly caught this quantifier, frowned slightly, and asked, "You mean, I'm not the only one who came from the Black Tower?"

"Yes. You're just one of them."

No. 19 confirmed: "This is the top secret of the Black Tower."

She continued: "The black tower is connected to the upper level. Except for Grand Duke Rafael and a few high-level people, no one knows what is going on above the black tower. I don't know either. But there must be other humans living. Because every After a while, a group of strangers will be sent down from the Black Tower. They will be wiped out of all memories outside, and then thrown into the outer city to fend for themselves.”

Speaking of this, No. 19 explained Su Lun's other doubts, saying: "This is also the reason why I didn't do anything in the Black Knight last time. Because I know you came from outside the tower, it must be impossible to fight with Umbrella." organization in any way."

"."

Hearing this, Su Lun fell into deep thought.

As if he had completed the most important piece of the puzzle, he suddenly felt enlightened.

Many of the problems that bothered him before suddenly made sense because of these words.

He muttered in his heart: "I said that in such a world, there shouldn't be only one underground city. It turns out that the black tower is the passage to the upper level?"

People in Old Lingdon don't have the concept of "ground". Su Lun feels that even if it is not the ground, it is definitely a wider world.

Exile, escort, erase memory.

These key words are connected together, giving Su Lun the feeling, how does this old Lingdun look like an underground prison? Exiled Lands?

The criminals outside the tower were exiled here to fend for themselves.

This situation is very similar to certain plots in Su Lun's previous life. In the 19th century, Sydney where the empire exiled prisoners?

I thought that he had already lifted the veil of this mysterious world after traveling for so long.

Unexpectedly, I just unraveled the veil on the tip of the iceberg.

Su Lun finally figured out the identity of the original owner.

Although he is still at a loss about the Regadi family.

However, he knew the general situation of the world.

No wonder the Black Tower has the absolute dominance of Old Lingdun, no wonder it wants to block high-level alchemy knowledge, no wonder that Grand Duke Raphael enjoys everything.

Will the warden let the prisoners have great force?

He remembered the words Chijo said to him when he left Old Lingdun: "Only when you become strong enough can you see the scenery on the high ground".

It turned out to be a pun.

High place?

Not only does it refer to the high-level professional field, but also the upper level of the Black Tower!

He even guessed the meaning of Mr. Hei's "third party force".

Thinking of this, Su Lun not only did not feel a sense of despair as a "prisoner", but the desire to become stronger rose up in his heart.

Geez, the world is so big.

Endless unknowns appeared in front of him, and a strong desire to explore flashed in Su Lun's eyes.

"I think, you should understand something."

No. 19 looked at Su Lun's talisman pen that froze for a moment, and said, "There is one more piece of information I can tell you. Maybe you won't have so many worries after hearing it."

"oh?"

Su Lun looked all ears.

He also knows what he thinks, and this woman can think of it too.

From the beginning, the bargaining chips are all secondary.

The most important thing is trust.

Su Lun didn't want to expose her safety to someone who might threaten her.

Even if No. 19 isn't showing any malice now.

Now that her arms are broken, it seems that her energy is almost exhausted.

But if you really want to connect your arms, Su Lun is the weak one.

No. 19 pondered for a moment, then said something that caught Su Lun's attention: "You should know that 'Rakshasa girl'?"

Su Lun looked up at her, but did not respond.

Rakshasa girl, it should be the Qiantiao.

It doesn't matter if I didn't wait for Su Lun's answer on the 19th, because she was sure of her judgment and continued: "Because I used to be a senior executive of the Black Tower Secret Agency, so I am familiar with almost all their intelligence systems. The umbrella organization system is huge. , it is impossible to change for a while. Therefore, I have intercepted a lot of confidential information during this period, including your information."

The talisman in Su Lun's hand didn't stop, but there was some curiosity in his eyes.

After a pause, she gave the information directly, and said: "I know that your name is Su Lun now, and you belong to the 'Steel Cross Society'. You made a fuss in the inner city and were chased out. I also know that your hand There are two forbidden objects, [Hypnos’s Black Scythe of Night] and [Oz Iceman’s Shroud]. Before that, I killed three second-tier professionals in the outer city. Then I encountered the Umbrella Organization in the cross The insider "Smoker" Sangbu's interception, the 'Rakshasa Girl' rescued you."

"."

Hearing this, Su Lun raised his eyebrows slightly. It turned out that No. 19 knew everything.

However, thinking that she was besieged by the Umbrella Organization before, "third-party forces" participated in the rescue operation.

Could it be that No. 19 is also a member of that organization?

"You guessed right."

Number nineteen seemed to see that Su Lun had already guessed her hidden identity, and admitted it decisively.

She said: "The Rakshasa woman took such a big risk to show up to save you. I think your relationship should not be simple. They helped me out in the city before, and then I got in touch with Mr. Hei and decided to join that organization." .So, I don’t think we have any hostile relationship, and even to some extent, we should be allies.”

After a pause, she looked at Su Lun, her tone was finally not so cold, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have told you so much."

Death is not enough for a fighter like her to compromise.

When Su Lun heard it, if No. 19 was really a member of Mr. Hei's organization, it would really be considered "a friend rather than an enemy".

No. 19 didn't beat around the bush, and directly stated his needs, and said, "I still have some things to deal with, and a few people haven't been killed, so I can't die now, so I want to buy that pair of mechanical limbs." .”

After a pause, she continued: "Besides, I have a broken arm now, and I need someone to help me connect the mechanical limbs. If you don't mind, I would also like to ask you to help me with this."

Su Lun listened and confirmed again: "You joined Mr. Hei's organization?"

No. 19: "Yes. If you think you need some necessary proof, I still have a token of the organization in my storage ring. You should recognize it when you see it."

Su Lun looked at the storage ring in his hand, he just put it on as a trophy, and he didn't have time to check what was inside.

Looking at it, there was a gold-patterned cloak with a "§" symbol in the corner.

Although the pattern is slightly different, the workmanship, material and feeling are exactly the same as that of Qianjo.

Su Lun has a judgment: "Okay."
