musicians of old

As soon as Fan Ning finished speaking, the audience was in an uproar.

Before the two chief inspectors, He Meng and Gang, had time to make a statement, a figure seemed to have made up his mind, and decisively broke in through the gap in the world's surface.

He was Principal Sternike, who was originally located opposite the special inspection hall and behind the Marquis McAdam and Roy.

Facts have proved that the frosted glass-like boundary has no barrier effect in the physical sense. As he raised his legs and stepped in, the outline of his figure became blunt, and the various colors of his clothes and body became like dreams. The same off-white ink color as Medium Fanning.

"Mr. Fanning, take the liberty to take a step forward." Sternike greeted with eager eyes, "I think there is something about my future on the mirror surface of these clouds, or at the entrance of the 'Gate of Coincidence'." Fate's revelation, so I thought. Uh. Uh."

He raised his head and walked around Fanning, or in other words, around the wreckage of the "Calamity" above, and suddenly the sound stopped abruptly.

As if he had seen something too terrifying, his steps froze in place, his neatly combed hair parted in the middle trembled and scattered, his eyes popped out, his hands covered his throat, and let out a painful "uh uh" howl.

thump - thump -

First he knelt down, then fell to the side, his limbs were stiff, and he lost his voice!
A high-ranking person with knowledge died inexplicably like this, and everyone's face changed drastically. Several people with knowledge stopped the few people on their side who became ready to move.

The Marquis McAdam raised his hand even more. Another member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, whose nose tip had already touched the boundary of the dream, suddenly exploded on the spot, turning into scattered light blue spots, and then reappeared in the dreamland. He gathered around him and changed back into human form.

The member who was captured by him suddenly broke out in cold sweat, regretting the impulsive thing just now.

"Steady your inspiration, stay rational, strictly forbid to act rashly, find the right time to carry out the secret ritual of containment."

The death of Sternike, the distortion of Huxley and Graham, and the loss of three consecutive members of the school made McAdam frowned, and the voice of the reminder was extremely serious and deep.

At this moment, there were more thumping sounds from the end of the tunnel near the platform.

"Holy, holy, holy."

"Holy, holy, holy."

Fan Ning looked far away, and his spiritual sense clearly "saw" that the source of the sound came from some passengers who were originally in the waiting area.

Among the waiting passengers were some people who had been bewitched to take the elixir?

There is a kind of attraction here, maybe because of the "disaster", maybe because of the secret atmosphere that the perfumers spread in the air, or because of the combined effect, they become uncontrollable, and because most of the police force is dispatched After entering the tunnel, the intensity of the guards outside became lower. They rushed out of the cordon and jumped directly into the tunnel.

These people twisted forward in a kneeling position of worship, and chanted praises, but they were morbidly fast, and they scratched their skin excitedly. Due to excessive friction and wear, colorful blood flew everywhere.

The cry of pain and excitement reappeared, the transmutation infected the whole from the part, and the gaps in the ruins of the train also began to overflow with colorful paints and half-dissolved human tissues.

The slurry flowing on the other side of the platform joined it and quickly raised the level of the tunnel.

But the water level did not continue to increase, because the pigments seemed to have a certain direction, and they were divided into several streams and flowed to specific areas in the tunnel.

It was the black hole-like deep pits inexplicably marked on the subway design drawings.

After Lu's order, these potholes were sealed, but those sticky paints instinctively sought to "see the holy spring", and at this moment, as if they had life, they used deformed bulges to push away the covering holes. Steel plates and iron plates, or plastics that dissolve through layers of packing, and then slide into them.

Although the ultimate "great achievement" of the Harmonization School is not today's disaster itself, nor is it the "gate of coincidence", but it is obviously one of the links. Because one party needs to collect transmutation materials, and the other needs to concoct casualties, they have reached a cooperation.

The characteristics of these affected passengers are very similar to those who were affected at the graduation concert. The intervention of the police and knowledgeable people is very weak. They can kill them or break their legs, but it is difficult to stop the passengers from visiting the shrine. In such chaos It is also difficult to control the severity of the stun in the scene.

Lu, who tried to intervene, was almost bitten. Joan was cornered by several drunken passengers, and had to walk back to the platform through the wall. Shouts and screams sounded again, and the chaotic crowd in the tunnel twisted into a ball.
However, the main personnel in the official organization are still waiting around Fanning.

Negative emotions hit Fan Ning's heart, but there was a faint coolness in his chest.

Is that where the baton is? .
As early as Fan Ning sensed that a large number of people were approaching, he put it back into the skirt.

"His inspiration is rising" He Meng said after instructing several senior investigators to arrange the containment secret, "However, why did he stand at the entrance of the 'Gate of Coincidence' and also observe the wreckage of the 'Catastrophe'?" The scene above, but there is no sign of contamination so far? Is there any special method or ritual vessel?"

"Maybe he is the key holder now." Gang guessed next to him, "So spirituality has the characteristics of affinity, including the 'disaster' that drifts down from the path above the Hui Tower. It is basically safe if you enter the climbing path intelligently, but this kind of key form similar to a feat is not permanent, and it will only be used for the process of opening the door this time.”

He Meng looked at the complex altar formation on the ground, frowned and said: "That is to say, if we want to temporarily store the wreckage of the 'Calamity' and hand it over to Mr. Poglerich, the safest solution with the least casualties and pollution is to It may be that Fan Ning, relying on the spirituality of the key, pulled him out of the boundary of the "Gate of Coincidence" and entered the range of our containment secrets."

"Or in other words, Fanning wants to come and go from the inside out, but we want to go in from the outside, but we are in danger?"

"Basically." Gon nodded, "That's why I gave him that order."

Unfortunately, the remaining time is too tight, and Mr. Poglerich has no resources to solve the troubles of the "Red Pond", so he can only hope that these trusted confidants will complete other relatively easy goals first.

"Please explain." She kept staring at Fan Ning: "As an official knowledgeable person, or a high-ranking backbone and a Boethius-nominated artist, you are required to perform your duties. What's wrong? How funny?"

"Miss Norma Gon, this is a serious question, and it shouldn't be funny." Fanning looked away from the chaos outside after hearing this, "Okay, since the chief of the Special Inspection Office is here today, the Bologna School The President of the Guidance School and the Church of the Holy Sun are also here, so let’s discuss the so-called responsibilities, and I don’t think I’m going to point it out to you.”

"Compared to senior officials, I have not been included for a long time, but I have tried my best to thoroughly investigate every mysterious incident I encountered, and after discovering suspicious clues related to secret organizations, I will deal with matters within my authority decisively. Is it due diligence to report matters beyond the scope of authority in a timely manner and ask for cooperation and resolution? And if an organization faces the verified evidence, but delays in covering it up because of the different interests of the empire it represents, does this count as a breach of duty? "

"In the face of the secret ceremony of the graduation concert planned by a secret organization, I used artistic inspiration to compose a work to purify the audience to fight against it. Two principals were seriously injured and buried the bad luck of pollution, and an old pianist died on the spot. Does this count as fulfilling my duties? And if some organization not only forces me to give up my debut, but also connives until the evil thing comes, does this count as a breach of duty?"

"In the face of the tense situation in Fort Santaram, various organizations deployed manpower and inspected hidden dangers. Now that a disaster has broken out, I have been chasing and killing four members of the evil god organization so far. Is this considered fulfilling my duties? Some organizations have only arranged Outside coordinators act, and the investigators of the core force have been looking around for other things, does this count as a breach of duty?"

"I think that since there is a difference between the official organization and the evil god organization, and since there is control over the mysterious side, at least you all agree that the former is at least responsible for the safety of the people, right? Otherwise, I would like to ask, you put another part of the group They are called 'forbidden persons', on what basis are they classified?"

"If the above premise does not exist, please tell me directly that you, as a person who understands, are better than me, a person with knowledge at the ninth level, so you coerce me to help you obtain non-public interests. It's much smoother for the conscientious to continue to be conscientious."

Norma Gunn couldn't help but fell silent.

Coercion for non-public benefit?I dare not say this!If there is such a thing, Fan Ning's presuppositions of "the difference between the official organization and the evil god organization", "the rationality of control", and the "basis for the division of banned persons" will all be disintegrated, and the Special Inspection Office will serve as a discussion group Although the team leader organization has high power and position, there is no such meaning expressed in any of the articles of association.

Poglerich specifically instructed not to make enemies on all sides for the time being, because he judged that the subsequent resistance would be much greater than it is now.

And now the entire empire, the top leaders and backbones of the four major official organizations are watching here!

The people present couldn't help but began to make eye contact, and some people began to whisper.

"Fan Ning, the risk of pollution from the wreckage of Qiyuanshen is extremely high. Why is such an emergency response order not within the scope of public duties?" There was a senior investigator of the Special Inspection Office who was also a ninth-level investigator. Can't help but refute.

"Extremely high risk? Emergency treatment? Yes, fortunately you came in time."

Fan Ning spread his hands, "Otherwise, if you come late, the door will be closed by itself."

"You," the senior investigator's face suddenly turned pale.

Marquis McAdam, who had been dissatisfied with them for a long time, finally felt a little better when he saw the people in the Special Inspection Office deflated.

Many others thought similarly.

No matter what the special patrol agency's profit motivation is, no one can fault Fan Ning's own things and achievements!
A person who has been promoted to a knowledgeable person for less than a year, what else can he do if things are done this way?

In the public name of "performing duties conscientiously", it is untenable to order an insider who is not himself, and even if he relies on strength to deter Fanning, it is difficult for Fanning to receive direct personal threats.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Bishop Mir, who is as proficient as He Meng and Gang, is now mainly watching plays. Who would dare to touch the unfamiliar high-level knowledge system?Those who really have ideas about "disaster" today, except for the Special Inspection Office, are the Bologna School that was originally passed down.

This is related to the "executor" and the top combat power of an organization. Marquis McAdam will definitely not give up the opportunity easily.

And he was at the third level of comprehension, and next to him was Viadrin, who was at the first level of comprehension, watching the situation quietly. The outcome was too variable, but it was too easy to take away someone.

What's so stressful about just relying on the identity of a master?If there is no suitable reason, wanting to move a "Forged Lion" artist will be under great pressure in the discussion group, and Fan Ning is too likely to be promoted to a master or even a "New Moon" in the future.

"Commander Fanning's speculation is unnecessary." Facing everyone's eyes, He Meng spoke after a moment of deliberation, "We respect the contribution and status of outstanding artists, and we only accommodated the wreckage of the 'disaster' and Mr. Poglerich entrusted us with it." As the leader of the discussion group, the leader has his own intentions, Mr. Fanning should not, and there is no need to violate the leader's instructions, right?"

"Violation?" Fan Ning heard something incomprehensible, "You just come in and get it, this thing is not mine, did I stop the officers? Or do you think I am standing here in the way? That's okay, I was just getting ready to go."

"Mr. Fanning." The Marquis of McAdam said loudly, "Everyone is here today. First of all, I have to admit that the 'disaster' involves my family inheritance and belongs to the internal interests of the Bologna School. Therefore, this is a commission, as long as you lead it Up to the scope of the containment ritual here, I promise at least three conditions, one is to provide your Turner Art Hall with an annual subsidy of 10 pounds for five consecutive years, and the other is that if you have related climbing needs in the future, the school may use it The hidden knowledge system of the school is all shared with you, and the school will always be your loyal personal friend, and wherever you walk in the empire, you will receive the convenience and courtesy provided by the noble families."

Following the president's conditions one by one, most of the knowledgeable people in the audience were shaken, including several investigators from the Special Inspection Office.

The School of Bologna is a force that represents the noble royal family and aristocratic blood with a long history in the entire empire.

It seems that only one of these conditions is Extraordinary resources, but in fact, all three of them mean a huge amount of Extraordinary resources, and all these conditions only need to exert more strength to pull the wreckage of the "catastrophe".

Or if Fan Ning chooses to be led to the secret ceremony altar arranged in the special inspection hall, it is also a top honor and reward.

Their breathing became short of breath, and they even began to substitute themselves into Fanning's role, showing a feeling of envy.

"Father, aren't you tempting or forcing Mr. Fanning to make a choice?" Roy faintly felt something was wrong.

"If I get 'Calamity', I may be [-]% sure that I can break through to the orderer." McAdam narrowed his eyes, "Think about what this means to the school. Besides, if he really does, the school will raise All resources support his development in the mystical side and artistic career, he will be under the protection of our two organizations and Guidance School at the same time, and your future will be more closely linked together."

"Us?" Roy opened her eyes wide. She wanted to show some imagination in her mind, but she shook her head immediately, "I don't, Mr. Fanning will definitely not like this way."

He Meng and Gang's expressions changed when they heard McAdam's words, but before they could speak, Fan Ning walked straight forward.

"What are you thinking?" Fanning smiled.

"It's really interesting. I found it really interesting. Why do you all talk about it, no matter what attitude, wording, or characterization, you all acquiesce in a premise, that is, I will definitely go to get the 'disaster'? I don't care about this chance encounter. What do you think? Do you think this is a treasure hunt? Or an auction?"

"Master Marquis, Roy and I have a very close personal relationship, so I just want to say something more personal." Fan Ning stepped on a stone slab, and his whole body rose into the air, "The living must perish, and salvation is hard to find. Seeking knowledge is enough, think too much If you want to trust and respect your colleagues, think more about those around you who depend on you."

"This"

"Fanning Command!?."

"and many more!"

There was an exclamation from the crowd.

However, the next moment, Fan Ning flew out directly through a certain stable boundary!
"To tell you the truth, I am in a very bad mood today, so I will not accompany you!"
