The warden who guards the witches

The space behind the iron door is larger than Aiden imagined. The layout of this room is somewhat similar to the prison infirmary.

Ten iron beds are neatly arranged here, but in terms of style, this room is far more sinister and terrifying than the prison infirmary. Each iron bed is equipped with restraint belts and chains. It is obvious that the "patient" lying on it will not be a peaceful being.

Several iron beds were stained with blood that had turned black. Two of them were even stained on most of the area, even on the ground. The blood stains had not been cleaned up. It was obvious that these beds were not used for medical treatment. No one cared about lying on them. The lives of those in these beds.

After arriving at this wretched place, Aiden had tasted this horror movie-like scene for the first time.

If this was the place where the base arranged to perform surgery on Professor Dodge's son, it could be seen that the situation was really hasty and they didn't even have time to clean up this terrible scene.

But after entering, Aiden couldn't help but wonder if he had gone to the wrong place.

At a glance, two technicians dressed as military doctors were standing in the middle of the iron bed, wearing beak masks on their faces. There was no one else in sight except them.

"Where are the Dodgers and his son?" Aiden frowned and asked.

Under the influence of the "hidden" power, their presence will not be observed, and their voices will naturally not be heard by outsiders.

You couldn't see the faces of the two people in front of you, but their height didn't match Professor Dodge's, obviously not, and the operating bed where his son was lying was not visible at the scene.

It was impossible for the officer to lie just now. The "betrayal" performed by the Furies should be effective.

"Escaped?" Lamia said.

This core research area is located in the deepest part of the mountain. According to Chichimora's reconnaissance and exploration, there is only one entrance and exit, and there is no other escape route. Not only is the cost of digging a new tunnel here very high, but a secret passage leading directly from the outside to the core area will bring a very high risk of attack to the core area. It is normal if there is not one.

If they want to escape, they can only go out the same way they came in. Most people can't do it, but Professor Dodge has the hand of annihilation, and perhaps also holds the divine word of "nothingness" power. The base is suddenly attacked, and he is able to escape in times of crisis.

"It's unlikely. His son's surgery is halfway done, and he's in that state, so it's probably not that easy to transfer." Aiden shook his head, "What's more, the people at the base probably won't allow him to take away the artifacts here without authorization. ”

"Something's wrong..." Kikimora looked around, "It seems like something is missing."

The last time Chichimora risked being discovered, he broke into the core research area and roughly explored several laboratories here. Although she only glanced at each room, she had some impression of the layout inside.

"These two people look a bit strange." Lamia spit out the message and caught the smell, "This is... the smell of fear!"

"People are afraid of smells?" Aiden was stunned for a moment.

"Oh, one of them peed his pants." Lamia explained.

"Okay..." Aiden understood.

Because the two "doctors" opposite were both wearing beak masks, Aiden couldn't see their expressions. But after Lamia mentioned it, he found that the two of them were standing there separately, feeling a little at a loss. One of them was trembling, and the other had a gun in his hand, holding it tightly as if he wanted to crush it. Gun handle.

Aiden had just invaded the core research area and defeated all the defensive forces outside. It was not surprising that the two technicians inside would panic when they heard the noise outside.

But after careful observation, Aiden discovered something strange - the two of them did not stare closely at the iron door as the only entrance, but looked around nervously, as if the real danger was in this room.

Could it be that they knew that they had the means of "hiding" here, so they guessed that they had sneaked in?

Suddenly, the military doctor holding the gun screamed and raised the gun in his hand.

Aiden realized that this man was planning to shoot randomly, and just as he was about to stop him, something incredible happened:

Before pulling the trigger, the gunman's body suddenly began to shrink and become thinner, as if being pressed into a soft piece of paper by an inexplicable force. Then almost without pause, the force twisted the "piece of paper" like a towel, rolling it into a long and thin line, and finally the line became shorter from two sections, as short as just one. A dot remains until it disappears.

During the whole process, he didn't even let out a single scream of pain, and he disappeared without even a scrap left.

"Ha, what was that just now!?" Lamia shouted excitedly.

"Annihilation!" Kikimora murmured. She specializes in studying the power of "nihility" and knows that it is the effect of "annihilation" power - reducing existing matter directly to nothingness.

But in Aiden's eyes, this effect has another shocking meaning:

This is... a dimensionality reduction blow! ?

Let a three-dimensional object collapse into a plane, then twist the plane into a two-dimensional line, then shrink it to a point, and finally disappear without a trace - this "magic" effect is too sci-fi!

"Ahhhhhh!!" The trembling military doctor witnessed the fate of his companions and rushed frantically towards the door through which Aiden and the others entered.

But before he could take two steps, the same thing happened to him immediately.

Aiden watched the "Dimensionality Reduction Strike" scene unfold again, and another person disappeared from the room.

"It's the power of 'annihilation'." The goddess of vengeance came to the same conclusion as Kikimora, "Be careful, kid, the professor is here!"

"He used 'invisibility'? Then he should be able to be observed when he interferes with the outside world." Aiden asked the question.

Kikimora's "invisibility" will reveal itself once it interferes with the outside world.

"Because this is not an ordinary level of 'invisibility'." The goddess of vengeance gave a hint.

"He put on the hand of annihilation!" Aiden reacted suddenly.

The scene in front of him can only be explained as Professor Dodge wearing the hand of annihilation to make himself invisible, and then touching the two military doctors to make them disappear completely.

After just a few seconds of thinking, Aiden understood what happened here.

"... It's really cruel." He couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.

"Damn, what is missing... Why can't I remember it no matter what." Kikimora covered his head with a tense expression.

"You actually had a time when you were affected by the power of 'nothingness'." Aiden smiled helplessly.

"Hey, kid, if you already know what's going on, can you give your teammates an explanation?" Lamia urged impatiently.
