My Endless Life.

Chapter 545 Go to earn points
The person who discovered that the protective device had failed was a mid-level fourth-order mecha master, and a mecha master from a school other than Alfred Academy.

At that time, she was being chased by Hongye and Angel. When she realized that she could not escape and was about to give up, she found that the escape device on her body could not be activated no matter what.

So she decisively chose to surrender and told Hongye about it.

Hongye did not tell Angel about this. Angel found out about it when she overheard their conversation.

Because it was not appropriate to ask about the safety devices, Li Qi and Angel simply let Hongye stay in the same room with the contestant, and let Hongye be in charge of the contestant on the grounds of "guardianship".

The two of them were outside eavesdropping on the conversation between Hongye and the contestant.

On the other side, Hongye, who was sure that the two indigenous warriors had no intention of interrogating the contestant, quickly asked the contestant after they left:
"What you said about the safety device failing, is that true or false?!"

"My classmate! I can't joke with my life!"

The girl with short dyed blue hair said to Hongye with a pale face: "I just came here to earn credits, but I don't want to die here. Otherwise, do you think I will surrender so easily?"

Unlike elite colleges like Alfred, most of the students from other colleges who come to participate in the competition are there to gain credits or fame.

They themselves had no intention of competing with graduate schools for the top few places. They just wanted to stay for a while and become familiar to other people. When they get out, they will have an easier time finding a job with their experience of participating in the secret realm assessment.

So once they encounter real danger, they will immediately activate the safety device.

There won't be any hesitation!
Hongye took a deep look at the student in front of her. Without hesitation, she threw her safety device to the other party and said:
"Try this."

Hongye still has a mission to complete, and it is impossible for her to leave the secret realm and return to the Academy Star right now. Therefore, if she wants to test whether the safety device on her body is effective, she can only let others use it.

Although the security device is bound to a person's genetic information, if someone voluntarily gives it to others for use, others also have the right to use it.

This is to provide students who form an alliance with each other with an additional way to escape.

The student in front of him took the safety device and looked up at Hongye in disbelief:

"You...want to give this to me?"

"Well, stop talking nonsense and use it quickly!"

Hongye urged.

Whether the safety device can be activated not only affects the safety of the other party, but also Hongye's own life.

No matter what, you have to make sure what the other person says is true. If it is true...

That would probably be something really bad happening!

Seeing Hongye's agreement, the contestant holding the safety device did not hesitate and immediately used his consciousness to activate the escape system inside.

But... after a few seconds, Hongye and she all fell silent.

“…This…this doesn’t work either…”

The contestant's face turned pale.

The safety escape device failed, which was almost impossible for Alfred, a federal academy of cosmic level.

Unless something happens at Alfred College, this safety device will never lose its proper function!
In other words, if the current safety device fails, it is very likely that something went wrong outside.

Hongye remained silent. She took back the failed safety device, looked at it in her hand, and suddenly remembered her mission this time.

She had been here for several days, but had not been able to find the inheritance mecha that she was supposed to find. Hongye originally thought that this was an extremely long task. After all, her own strength was limited, and she herself was not very smart, so she could only rely on luck to find the inheritance mecha.

But what if Hongye is not the only one who came here to look for the inherited mecha?

Although both the Martial Alliance and the Sages' Association said that Hongye could only rely on herself to accomplish this, Hongye knew that no matter how hard she tried, she could only search in a secret realm.

She cannot access the other two secret realms.

Who can guarantee that there won’t be clues to the inherited mecha in the other two secret realms?
If someone in the other two secret realms also had the same mission as her and already had clues, then it would make sense that an accident had occurred in the outside world.

I'm afraid that the Sages and the Martial Alliance have made some big moves, and they may even have determined the location of the inherited mecha!

If this is true... then what's the point of me staying here?
Various thoughts flashed through her mind, and Hongye was a little confused for a moment.

……

"The safety device failed."

Reacher pulled out his own safety device, playing with it on his fingers, muttering to himself.

The safety device itself is a small square piece of metal with strange diamond-shaped patterns on it.

The way to activate it is also very simple. Just put your hand on it and let your consciousness touch the core to activate it.

Unlike the passive activation during the entrance examination, this thing is actively activated, so it really tests students' decision-making ability when facing a crisis.

Don't be fooled by its small size, but it is connected to the rules of the Academy Star. This means that no matter where it is, as long as it does not encounter a large world of the same level as the interstellar world, once it is activated, it will play its due role.

In other words, it is now like an ordinary piece of iron and has no use at all. The only possibility is that something went wrong in the outside world.

Thinking of this, Li Qi opened the ranking list again and took a look.

There is no change in the ranking above, except for a few more dimmed names. I don’t know whether they gave up and successfully left the secret realm, or... died here.

"Is it very troublesome?" Angel asked Li Qi when she saw that Li Qi had not spoken for a long time.

"It's okay, but I don't know what's happening outside." Li Qi said, throwing the iron sheet in his hand to Angel.

This thing is no longer useful, so it might as well be given to Angel as a toy. Perhaps it can help her study alchemy.

Li Qi stood up and straightened his clothes, then took off the magic device and threw it back to Angel.

In the past few days, he has used the alchemy of this world and the materials at hand to transform his flying machine into a dedicated magic device. He no longer needs Angel's magic device.

It would be better to give this magic device to Angel to enhance her strength.

Catching the magic device and the small piece of iron that had lost its function, Angel looked up at Li Qi standing up and knew that he was going to take action.

"What are you...going to do?"

"Are you interested in accompanying me to the Sorcerous Kingdom?"

"The Sorcerous Kingdom?"

Angel raised an eyebrow: "Why, you want to... No, what are you going to do in the Sorcerous Kingdom?"

Angel wanted to ask if Li Qi wanted to repeat his feat of destroying half the city by himself during his lifetime. After all, part of the territory of the Magic Kingdom was once England. Although the capital had changed, it felt a bit like déjà vu for Li Qi to go to the Magic Kingdom at this time.

Li Qi did not hide it, he smiled slightly:
"I plan to finish this game quickly, so I need to find a place to make a scene."

If you want to gain points, you need to increase your influence in this world.

Because of what happened in Ulogis, Li Qi's influence in Ulogis has been gradually spreading, so his points are increasing every moment.

But this is not enough. If Li Qi wants to establish his absolute number one position and finish the assessment of the fourth-level secret realm ahead of time, he must do it more thoroughly.

For example... go to the Sorcerer Kingdom for a classic reenactment, and fight with the top magicians of the Sorcerer Kingdom.

Hearing this, Angel also smiled:

"So, we're going to the Sorcerous Kingdom to fight?"

"Why do you look so excited?"

"Is it that obvious?" Angel touched her face and then smiled, "I just slept a little too long, so I wanted to stretch my muscles."

"Didn't you have enough fun fighting those outsiders these days?"

"Well, their alchemical tools and alchemical puppets are indeed interesting, but... that's all."

Angel said, spreading her palms.

Flying machines and mechas, if they are not mixed with magic-breaking metals, will be suppressed by the rules of this world. With Angel's strength, even without using magic devices to transform, she can borrow the magic power of this world to defeat them.

After all, the energy core in her body has accumulated magic power for thousands of years. Even without using magic, just throwing it out can kill an S-class magician in this world.

"If there's a chance, I'll take you to the interstellar world. You should be able to have fun there."

Richie makes a promise to Angel.

He finally decided to take Angel away.

After all, she is his daughter. Since he has met her, it proves that the fate between him and Angel has not been severed.

Besides, Angel is very studious and is a top alchemist. If she were to be exposed to the consciousness cultivation method and the mechanic system, she might become an excellent mechanic.

It's such a shame that such great talents are trapped in a small world.

Angel's eyes brightened a little more after hearing these words.

Just these words from Li Qi made all the tension and anxiety in Angel's heart disappear.

Because Li Qi was willing to take her away, it meant that the other party was willing to treat her as his daughter.

As long as Li Qi is willing to acknowledge Angel's identity, then one day she will be able to call Li Qi "Dad" in person.

This is not only Angel’s wish now, but also Angel’s wish in the past.

Whether now or in the past, Angel admires this great father who opened the curtain of the alchemy system.

Angel's longing look was very subtle, but Li Qi could easily see it.

This may be the connection between father and daughter.

Without talking any more with Angel, Li Qi picked up his magic device, left Grant Manor with Angel, and headed for the Magic Kingdom on the other side of the ocean.

The two transformed very quickly, so in less than an hour, their figures appeared above the capital of the Sorcerous Kingdom.

When the two set out, it was still daytime in Ulogis, but in the capital of the Sorcerous Kingdom, it was just dawn.

It's still early morning here.

Most of the residents of the Sorcerous Kingdom are still asleep here and have no idea that trouble is coming.
