Maoshan Taoist priests practice falsehood and become reality

Chapter 224 Maxi Wushan
Xia Xiaoling used earth-moving skills and took Xie Zerong into the underground area. As Xie Zerong deduced, there is a secret area in the psychic research institute in District 1.

"Strange, it feels like swimming in the soil. What is the principle? Will the human body be transformed into other substances?"

"It's not that complicated. It just uses mana to generate a shield on the body surface. It is used to walk in the soil."

"It's still weird. Doesn't this mana shield have resistance? It's so smooth, it's incredible."

"Don't get into trouble. Instead of thinking about Taoism, it's better to think about how to open this door."

The earth element can only walk on the ground and is helpless when encountering metal walls.

Right now, there was a security door made of alloy in front of them.

Xia Xiaoling tried to get around, but this secret laboratory was like a fully enclosed metal box buried deep underground.

Not only the door, but also the walls of the space behind the door are made of alloy.

“I like the metaphor of the tin box, the airtight container typically used to store top secrets.”

The hydraulic door slowly opened, and light rushed out from the gap. Xia Xiaoling's golden eyes flashed, and she unconsciously clenched the demon-slaying sword in her hand.

They all sound like literary readings.

As soon as the two stepped into the room, the projector automatically started showing, and an old man with pale hair and a stooped back appeared on the wall. He was wearing a long white coat, thick-soled glasses, and an eye-catching Light of Hope logo on his chest. He smiled and said: "Comrades from District 9, welcome to Asta's secret cabin."

"Is this old man Asta?"

"Well, he's also the mad scientist who tortured my father for many years."

This code was designed as if it was known in advance that researchers from District 9 would come to visit.

"How do you know the password?"

"Isn't this my study?"

Xie Zerong frowned dissatisfied and muttered in a low voice: "I am a scientific researcher, not a locksmith. Oh no, we were indeed called locksmiths in the past... The password should be universal, right?"

"I don't like containers, password doors, and independent power supply systems. It's your turn to take action."

Xie Zerong couldn't help complaining that except for the desk and sofa, which were of different colors, the rest of them were exactly the same. It can only be said that the taste of the owner of the study room is completely consistent with his.

Xie Zerong didn't notice at all that Xia Xiaoling's face was so gloomy that it was dripping with water. He even introduced this legendary figure in academia with excitement, the most shining light of hope:
"Dr. Asta, a true genius. He constructed the basic principles of the safe zone shield and protected human civilization for more than eighty years. Unexpectedly, this is Asta's secret base."

"understand!"

"I have no idea……"

"Professor, my temper has never been very good."

"Ah." Xie Zerong was a little embarrassed and said in a mood to comfort the girl, "From another perspective, it is actually an honor to be studied by such a great scientist."

With the attitude of giving it a try, Xie Zerong typed in the password of the Ninth District Research Institute. As a result, there were two beeps and the door opened.

Unexpectedly, what came into view was a study room with a warm layout, wooden bookshelves filled with books and files on three sides, a long office table for working at the desk, a projector on the table, and a projector opposite the lens. Sofa for rest.

The projection was recorded in advance, and Asta was still busy introducing the collections in the room: "...the manuscript of "One Hundred Years of Solitude", the unabridged version of "The Plum in the Golden Vase"... the collector's edition of "The Critique of Pure Reason"... "

Xie Zerong couldn't wait to go to the bookshelf. It was indeed the same as what was said in the projection. He even flipped through a few books unwillingly. Except for the humanistic aspect, they didn't have much value.

Strange, spending a lot of money to build a secret space just to store these?
"...the above are the items I use to maintain my humanity. Being exposed to high-dimensional knowledge for a long time will make me forget that I am a human being. If I don't read a few novels to awaken my inner emotions, I will turn into a monster sooner or later. However, I'm probably already a monster.

I see. Xie Zerong was relieved instantly.

"Let me guess, why are you here. More advanced fire? No, all fire is inferior. The fire route cannot save mankind. Since fire is not good, why not restart the Black Light Project? The Black Light Project is good, but the first generation product It’s not easy to control, and the next generation will be much gentler, but its lifespan is too short. If we continue to iterate, there may be a chance.”

Xie Zerong's eyes widened: "Wait a minute, didn't the Black Light Project declare failure? Why are there first-generation and second-generation products? Could it be that the original plan... succeeded!"

As if guessing Xie Zerong's surprise, Asta's image sighed: "Yes, all subsequent black light projects ended in failure. In the final analysis, the original experimental subjects were lost. However, there are still several experimental samples that have been retained... ...Ah, wait, what are you doing here? I just got to the key point!"

A woman's back appeared in the video: "Asta, you signed a confidentiality agreement, and this part must be kept in your stomach."

"But important knowledge must be preserved so that future generations of researchers can understand the origin of everything."

"What's the point of that? No matter what, it's impossible for humans to return to Mount Masiwu. If you leave the coordinates, you will only let them die in vain!"

"But……"

"Asta, stop it! Listen, what will be the consequences if the committee finds out about this? You can die if you want, but don't involve me. Enough is enough! From now on, you are not allowed to set foot in this place again. step!"

Astha followed the woman out of the room, and before leaving, he deliberately stuck out his tongue at the camera.

"Where is Maxi Wushan?"

A sudden voice came from behind. Xia Xiaoling turned around and found that it was Su Heng.

"Master, when did you come?"

"Just arrived, hold me up."

"Xuan...Taoist Master Heng...I..." Xie Zerong wanted to say hello, but also wanted to say something more important. In desperation, he stuttered.

"Don't be anxious, speak slowly."

"Mount Massiwu is in the center of Colorado in the past lighthouse country. It used to be a military testing base. Chief Taoist, have you decided to launch an extra-wall exploration plan?"

"Well, it's decided."

"Please take me with you!"

"What's the reason?"

Xie Zerong looked at Xia Xiaoling: "Can you tell Taoist Master Xuanheng about those things just now? After all, we just agreed that we can't tell the second person."

"Ah, it's okay. My master is not a human being. No, what I mean is that the master is a god, and gods are not humans. Ah, please tell me!"

"The thing is like this..."

Su Heng nodded: "Well, do you suspect that I have the same origin as the evil spirit?"

"Correct."

Xia Xiaoling was so frightened that she turned pale and even wanted to close her eyes.

"Well, it's a very interesting theory. Please do your best to confirm it. If you need support, please feel free to contact me."

"Ok!"
