Chapter 167 Chaos Block No. 13 (24) There is a player forum,...
With a few soft "pop, pop" sounds, a pile of bones emerged from the ground.
"Just now, your ghost lantern dragged five people underground," Bai Jie said, "and you killed them too."
Gao Mengtang was a little sad: "Are you blaming me..."
"Ah, no, no, no," Bai Jie said quickly, "Good kill. It's just, give a warning next time, it was too sudden."
Gao Mengtang also found it quite sudden. He suddenly remembered that there was another group of people here, the security team of the courtroom.
"Where are the people from the courtroom? Have they left?" Gao Mengtang asked, looking around.
Duanchang pinched Gao Mengtang's chin, turned his head in one direction, and pointed at the group of dumbfounded people: "The people from the courtroom are over there."
Court staff: What are you looking at us for? Just passing by.
They jumped into the car without hesitation, started the engine, stepped on the accelerator to the floor, and drove away without a trace.
Just kidding, work is valuable, but life is more valuable.
System: “The highlights have been edited and uploaded to the platform.”
"We won?" Zuo Feng was still confused. "Black Prince, your moves just now, and your hair... your real name is Gao Mengtang?"
Bai Ke yelled so loudly that everyone present heard it, including the people in the courtroom. Gao Mengtang sighed and said, "Let's go back first."
17kg of ancestral remains were brought back without any damage, and the Axe Man held a banquet to celebrate. Late at night, Gao Mengtang, Bai Jie and Tu Cheng returned to the bedroom and used the peek function to watch the latest clearance video.
After the video of "Double Kings" was updated, a video of Gao Mengtang carrying the Axe Chopping Man back to transport the 04 blocker was updated, titled "Bubble Illusion"
Immediately afterwards, Gao Mengtang followed Wei Xiangchen into Fulin and came to the Tanhualing Laboratory. The system probably thought that these contents should be kept confidential and did not edit them into a video.
The next video is the "Command" that was just updated
Gao Mengtang's eyesight was still not very good. He sat cross-legged half a meter away from the light screen, looking up.
The temperature suddenly dropped, and Wei Xiangchen floated in with a piece of paper in his hand: "Chief Gao... are you all here?"
"Good evening." Gao Mengtang said, "You came to see me because..." Is there anything wrong?
"I have no intention of submitting to you," Wei Xiangchen said quickly, "I found some information about the refining furnace... Is this a clearance video?"
Gao Mengtang: “Yeah.”
"Can I take a look? This dungeon is too boring."
"Please sit down." Gao Mengtang gave him a cushion.
The four of them looked up together.
In the video, a blind man with an axe ran out of a warehouse in the old city, jumped into a car, and sped away.
More than 50 people led by Bai Ke suddenly appeared and stopped them.
"They are... the Whitehead Gang." Bai Jie read the comments.
: I saw in someone else’s playthrough video that Bai Shu built his own organization called the [White Head Gang], and used coercion and inducement to get the leader of the Blue Camp and her subordinates to join. Now the organization has grown to more than 200 people, which is quite a large scale!
: The leader of the Blue Camp works for the Bai family?
: That's an old wizard family, what do you think? They are about to join the most noble Xiao family, who can't be offended.
: To be honest, in terms of comprehensive strength, the Xiao family is even stronger than the Black Owl. After all, the wizard family has developed hundreds of years earlier, and they have blood as a bond, so their cohesion is stronger. It is hard to say whether the Xiao family can compare with the Moon Banner.
: Ahhh, the flash bomb hurt Tangtang's eyes! Too much!
In the video, the blind man was dragged out of the car, but Bai Ke suddenly lifted up a strand of his hair and moved closer to take a closer look.
: Like a pervert...
: You are also fascinated by the blind man.
: The hair of the blind must smell very good [drooling]
: Be serious. I think Bai Ke recognized that this is Gao Mengtang. He has long black curly hair, which is quite recognizable.
"That's Gao Mengtang." Bai Ke spoke in the language of the other world, but the system considerately provided subtitles.
"He killed two of us!"
"We can't let him go!"
: Damn, are we going to beat us up?
: Hahahahaha, light candles for the Bai family in advance.
: Don’t be too optimistic! Bai Ke’s ID card is [726 Ghost in the Lake], and his skill [Horror Guardian] can make him immune to all attacks!
: Let's put it this way, once the ghost shadow appeared, the Bai family never lost, and the worst result was a draw. The horror guard can last for more than 3 minutes, during which time you have nothing to worry about, you just need to attack, and the opponent will be half-dead if not dead.
: We were surrounded by more than 50 people. I really felt that something was wrong.
"How did you escape back?" Wei Xiangchen couldn't help but want to know the plot in advance.
Gao Mengtang didn't know how to answer. After all, it was not him who ran away, but Bai Ke's 50-odd men.
The number of barrages suddenly exploded, and the words "Nuclear Energy Ahead" covered the front screen. The barrage was turned semi-transparent before the picture could be seen clearly.
The fragments of the barrier ignored the corrosion of the black rain and passed through the striker's eyebrows smoothly as if it were nothing, and then came out from the back of his head.
The man who was rushing in the front fell to the ground immediately.
Everyone looked at Gao Mengtang in unison, asking with their eyes: What's going on?
Gao Mengtang: "Hey, what's going on? Isn't the ghost in the lake immune to all attacks?"
[Nuclear energy ahead again]
The system page actually showed garbled characters, with the word "almost" added between "immune" and "all attacks".
: Is there such an operation? Can a blind person tamper with the system?
: The system bug has been found! !
: The blind man said, follow the rules? I am the rules.
: You said things were not going well before, now look at how good they are now?
: Made a cat sound, meow.
Wei Xiangchen silently moved aside a little, keeping a distance from Gao Mengtang: "Chief Gao, are you trying to demonstrate to me?"
Deliberately let him see the highlight clips of the blind man changing the rules, so that he can realize the blind man's true level?
This is a deterrent, this is a warning!
Gao Mengtang: “Huh?”
What a bizarre train of thought.
The truth is not as outrageous as netizens guessed. The original skill description of [Horror Guardian] is a skill aimed at dungeon NPCs and other players.
But the barrier fragment is Li Mo's skill. He is neither an NPC nor a player. He has lived in the dungeon for many years, but in fact he has nothing to do with the Black Tower game. When the statistics were made, his skills were not counted.
The barrier fragment is a broken space with nothingness in the middle. Black rain cannot corrode it because it cannot corrode something that does not exist. Therefore, the fragment can ignore defense and cut through everything.
The video continues to play.
"You guys always bully me." The blind man looked quite aggrieved. "Is it because I don't have the ability to fight? But I won't back down."
: "Bullying" and "No Fighting Power"
: He did not retreat, he did not even move his heels, and killed three people first.
: The blind man (crying): What’s wrong with killing a few of you? You were the ones who started it first!
The camera gave a close-up of Bai Ke's expression. When he heard these words, he was completely stunned and stood there in a daze with his mouth half open.
: Hahahaha, Bai Ke’s expression is so funny!
: Am I dazzled? The blind man's hair seems to have turned white.
: Tip [Nuclear energy ahead x3]
The blind man's gray eyes were as clear as a pool of ice water, empty. They were a pair of eyes that looked high above and ignored the disturbances of the world: "I command you to attack them."
The screen shook, and a deep, rich voice, like thunder rolling in the soil, said, "Yes, sir."
Under the blind man's feet, waves of black mud appeared one after another, rushing towards Bai Ke and others. After eleven waves, the last ghost with a lantern appeared and stood behind the blind man.
The cold light of the full moon orb hit the blind man's face, and his long silver hair blowing in the wind looked even colder and cleaner, like the first batch of frost that condensed after a sudden drop in temperature.
Countless hands stretched out from the mud, grabbed the limbs of Bai Ke's group and pulled them down.
In just a few seconds, two defenseless people were dragged down and died silently.
Seeing the ghost with the lantern brought back some bad memories for Wei Xiangchen. He was restless and looked around. After seeing the ghost dragging the enemy underground, he could no longer sit still. He floated into the air and said in a panic:
"Captain Gao, what skill do you have?"
"I don't know," Gao Mengtang said sincerely, "Really. And I have no hostility towards you."
Wei Xiangchen: "...Just now you said you have no fighting ability."
"That's because I was blind and didn't see clearly!"
Judging from Wei Xiangchen's expression, he didn't believe even a single punctuation mark in what Gao Mengtang said.
In the area covered by the black quagmire, there was only despair. When each person was dragged down, the system gave them a close-up, recording the moment when the light in their eyes disappeared.
Until the phoenix came and rained fire, Bai Ke and others managed to escape.
The aftermath of the fierce battle lingered, and the magnificent background music came to an end. Gao Mengtang glanced indifferently at the staff of the Court of Justice who were still watching the battle nearby.
The group of people jumped into the armored vehicle as if struck by lightning, and ran faster than mice.
Finally, the camera zoomed out and up. Under the moonlight, the figure was stretched out very long, and the bloodstains on the ground were dazzlingly bright.
"So that's how it is. No wonder they were so scared." Gao Mengtang realized belatedly.
But why would the ghost with the lantern listen to his command and attack the other party? Gao Mengtang glanced in the mirror and saw his silver-white hair.
He had a guess in his mind: "I order you to... uh, comb my hair?"
"Yes, sir."
The mud rolled over, and Wei Xiangchen screamed in fear and fled. Gao Mengtang was too late to stop him. Bai Jie and Tu Cheng jumped onto the bed and huddled together.
Several arms stretched out, fingers split into comb teeth, and slowly combed Gao Mengtang's hair.
"Okay, let's go back."
"yes."
The ghost disappeared.
"Boss, you have evolved again?" Bai Jie asked stutteringly.
Gao Mengtang: "What do you mean by evolved again? I'm not Godzilla."
It seemed that he could only control the ghost when he was in the silver-haired state. And he switched to the silver-haired state just now because... Gao Mengtang lowered his head and looked at the ring on his left ring finger.
When he fell, he accidentally slid the skill wheel and injected [Soul Calming Toxin]
Gao Mengtang touched the ring with one finger and selected [Antidote]
After a slight sting, in the blink of an eye, his hair curled and turned black.
"I order you to comb my hair," said Gao Mengtang.
No one paid any attention to him.
Gao Mengtang: "Where's the ghost? This is an order, come out."
“…”
It seems he guessed right.
There is still one question left, why did Gao Mengtang's hair turn white after being injected with the soul calming toxin? Why did his hair turn white the last time he used the refining furnace?
"Gao Mengtang, you really scared that old ghost," Tu Cheng said, "He is a deputy leader, how lame."
Speaking of Wei Xiangchen, Gao Mengtang suddenly remembered that Wei Xiangchen came to give him information. Wei Xiangchen found a document about the refining furnace and placed it beside the bed.
Gao Mengtang picked it up and looked... couldn't see clearly.
"Read it to me." Gao Mengtang handed the paper to the figure in front of him.
Tu Cheng took it over: "What a rubbish... This is not written by him, but my evaluation. To refine the soul gem, you need the hair of the moon creatures, from which you can extract the basic code of the soul..."
The information given in the manuscript is: Before extracting the soul code, the soul must be allowed to "relax" first.
Just like before getting glasses, you need to dilate your pupils. Because long-term tension in the eye muscles causes eye fatigue, the degree of vision may be off. Dilation of the pupils can help the eyes relax.
The soul in the body will be oppressed by various factors, such as reason, personality, mood and so on.
Therefore, before the refining furnace pulls out the hair, it will also inject the donor with soul-calming toxin, which can relax the soul.
Gao Mengtang was a little surprised: "So, my soul has always been oppressed?"
"Here's another sentence," Tu Cheng carefully identified the messy handwriting, "The influence of reason and character is minimal and can basically be ignored. If the mood does not reach the extreme state of great sorrow or great joy, such as Fan Jin's joy of passing the imperial examination to the point of going crazy, or the grief of the destruction of his family and country, the mood will not cause obvious oppression to the soul and can also be ignored."
Tu Cheng turned a page and said, "There are two factors that really affect the state of the soul: the external environment (an environment that can cause more serious spiritual pollution) and the magic used on the soul."
Environmental impact can be ignored for Gao Mengtang because he is very resistant.
Then, there is only one influencing factor left: the magic that suppresses the soul.
"What kind of magic is it? Is it written? How to cast this magic?" Gao Mengtang asked.
Tu Cheng found another passage in a corner: "Considering that you are the twelfth wise king, your soul strength is far beyond the reach of ordinary people. There are only two people who can cast soul spells on you: the Supreme Order, and you yourself."
: You are the reincarnation of the star of disaster, destroying the throne, destroying the Supreme Order, and causing the inner world to collapse... I am getting off topic. The Supreme Order has dissipated, and the magic He cast will also disappear. Therefore, there is only one possibility left.
: You yourself have cast a suppression spell on your own soul.
Gao Mengtang: "Me? Why would I do this?"
"As for why you did this, I dare not speculate on the emperor's intention. You go find the answer on your own." Tu Cheng read, "The whole article is over."
*
"How's Meng Fei?" Li Ren knocked on the table. "Does he still look like he's about to die?"
The secretary replied, "Better. I went for a walk in the garden today."
"You can get out now."
After the secretary closed the door, Li Ren immediately took out a mobile phone from the hidden compartment of the drawer and sent a message to Fu Yi: Wei Zhongxian is getting better. When are we going to take action?
: Don't be impatient. Wait for Meng to take over the job formally.
Li Ren: I can’t wait. He’s too vicious. If he really waits until he recovers, I’ll be finished.
Fuyi: That makes sense. I have everything ready and can blow up the sewer pipes at any time. Do you need to lay the groundwork?
Li Ren: Okay. I'll try to lure Wei Zhongxian to the blasting point, and it would be best if he were killed directly. Even if he can't be killed, he will still be held responsible for such a big incident.
: The security force still needs your help.
Li Ren: Don’t worry, they are all my people and they will listen to me.
He put away his phone, went to Wei Wei's ward and walked in directly through the door.
"It's eleven o'clock at night, and you haven't slept yet?" Li Ren suppressed his disgust, squeezed out his acting skills, and forced a smile, "How are you doing?"
Wei Wei was leaning against the head of the bed reading a book. He only needed to take a glance to tell that Li Ren's smile was fake.
Then Wei Wei showed his perfect answer sheet of "very upset inside, but a peaceful face", and smiled warmly and sincerely: "Thank you brother Li for your concern, I feel much better now."
Brother Li, who is your brother? Li Ren's smile almost couldn't be suppressed. He pulled a chair over and sat beside his bed, saying earnestly: "The beasts rebelled, and the city is full of corpses. Human flesh and blood is the soil for Tong Xin vines. Sooner or later, Tong Xin vines will wreak havoc among the corpses, so you have to be careful."
"I'm still sick, so I'll leave the affairs of the Epidemic Prevention Bureau to you," said Wei Wei.
Li Ren: "I have made two mistakes in a row. I am too ashamed to stay in this position. I have written a letter of resignation and will hand it to Judge An in a moment."
"This..." Wei Wei made a surprised expression. What's the plan?
"You should have a good rest. See you later." Li Ren patted Wei Wei's shoulder and left the ward.
Wei Wei frowned, gently closed the book, and put it on the bedside table. He leaned against the bedside and thought for a long time, then pressed the intercom: "He Lun, bring me my green notebook and "The Secret of the Moon."
"Okay."
Ten minutes later, He Lun came in with a notebook and a book: "Brother Wei, what do you want this for?"
"Study." Wei Wei didn't want to explain more. He read two lines, raised his head and said to He Lun, "You and your sister should not leave the temporary office building these days. Keep an eye on the people here for me."
He Lun: "Okay. Brother Wei, I feel like you don't look right."
"It's okay," Wei Wei thought for a while, "You don't have to follow me wherever I go."
"Ah?" He Lun scratched his head, "What if you encounter danger?"
Wei Wei sneered, opened his book and notes, and said without looking up: "If I were in danger, you wouldn't be able to help me, and following me would only cause more trouble."
This is too cruel, but it makes sense. He Lun was speechless: "Ah, okay, fine. I won't bother you anymore."
He walked out dejectedly and closed the door gently. Only then did Wei Wei raise his head and look at the door.
He Lun must be very hurt, but if you don't say this, he will follow him with full enthusiasm. It is better to suffer a little hurt in the heart than to follow him to take risks.
Wei Wei sighed and opened the skill tree panel.
Behind the Black Tower game, there is a complete set of "code programs". Just like a game, players can trigger it by clicking, and the code runs under the surface.
The same goes for the player's skills. The system writes the "programs" of those spells, and the player can use them by clicking the roulette wheel. Very few people will open the source code.
And these codes are open, which means that as long as players have the ability and willingness, they can change the codes to make the skills have different effects.
But few people know how to modify skills, and if they are not careful, the code will crash. And to modify these codes, you need to learn the language of the world and the principles of the operation of the magic circle.
Only high-end players with spare time and wizard families with a long history of wizarding knowledge will study these things.
Wei Wei opened the source code of [Turn Over], and what appeared before him was a colorful and complicated magic circle.
The overlapping patterns and lines of various colors are dazzling, like a child's random scribbles. When viewing the array, you can rotate 360 degrees, or separate the array module of a certain color.
After the [Cave of Sorrow] instance was over, Wei Wei devoted himself to improving his resurrection technique, which has now been very effective. He rewrote another magic circle and stored it in another instance.
He checked it many times and there was nothing wrong with it, but he had never conducted any experiments. He couldn't just kill someone and then revive him.
Wei Wei checked it many times again and was basically sure that there was no problem with the magic circle. He slept for a while and was woken up at eight o'clock in the morning.
"Chief, we have to inspect Yingzhu District and District 13 today." Assistant Huang Xiaoxiao was holding a stack of documents in her arms.
Wei Wei: "Go find Li Ren, I still need to recover from my illness."
"Li Ren resigned," Huang Xiaoxiao said, "He asked me to give you these documents for review."
The document placed at the top was written by Li Ren himself, and was stamped with a bright red "Emergency, handle quickly" seal.
The title of the document is "Action suggestions for focusing on cleaning up the Tongxinteng in the drainage system of District 13", and there is a line of bold text in it: Cracks appeared in the drainage pipes of Qingya Street, District 13, and a large amount of Tongxinteng was detected inside. If an accident occurs, the consequences will be disastrous. It is recommended that the General Administration of Epidemic Prevention and Control personally supervise and handle it.
All of a sudden, all the clues were connected.
Why was Fu Yi so anxious to ask the Axe Man to provide the remains of his ancestors and why was he so anxious to produce the 04 blocker? Because he wanted to detonate the sewer pipes, causing the Tongxin vine to run rampant and take the opportunity to make a fortune.
Why did Li Ren's attitude change and urge him to get back to work as soon as possible? Because Li Ren was also involved in this matter, he and Fu Yi teamed up to harm others.
This is an open conspiracy.
Li Ren submitted a proposal and asked Wei Wei to handle it personally. If Wei Wei did not go, at the very least, he would be incompetent. At the most, he would be negligent in his duties.
As a newcomer to the courtroom, he has not yet established a firm foothold. Countless people are eyeing his position covetously. If he doesn't go, those people will not care whether the chief is sick or not and will definitely take advantage of the situation.
If we go there... even a fool can see that there is something wrong with the sewer pipes on Qingya Street. If nothing unexpected happens, there will definitely be an accident.
"Does Li Ren have a son?" Wei Wei asked, "Where is he?"
Huang Xiaoxiao: "Probably, at home?"
"Where's Li Ren?"
"He has resigned, so he should have gone home. Chief, are you going there in person?" Huang Xiaoxiao asked worriedly, "Your injury hasn't healed yet."
Of course he had to go. Li Ren had more work experience, prestige, and connections than Wei Wei, and he personally "suggested" Wei Wei to go to the site to supervise the work. If Wei Wei didn't go, he would definitely be caught.
Wei Wei: "What are you afraid of? As a leader, even if I go to the site, I will just stand by and watch others work."
Huang Xiaoxiao was amazed at his straightforwardness: "That makes sense!"
Li Ren had set him up with a dilemma, so he might as well take advantage of it. Wei Wei smoked a cigarette, and after a while he suddenly said, "Please contact Chief Li. I need his guidance on this work."
"yes."
After the assistant left, Wei Wei immediately opened the Yingzhu District map, selected a route that Li Ren must take to reach the temporary office building, and sent the location to Gao Mengtang.
: Mr. Blind Man, thank you for leading your men to ambush and kidnap Li Ren. Let's start now. Don't harm his life. Just lock him up for a few hours.
: In addition, I would like to apply to use the resurrection coins in the camp warehouse.
When [Guns N' Roses] defected, they gave Gao Mengtang a resurrection coin, which has been kept in the camp's common warehouse and has not been used.
Gao Mengtang: Good! [Rabbit appearsjpg]
