Everyone who had received systematic teaching in the academy immediately understood what the senior sister meant by these words.
The so-called layer between the two worlds is actually a door, similar to the gate to the kingdom of God hidden deep in the Arctic Ocean that the Far North has always believed in, which should also be the gate of a Nibelung.
They were now only able to open a crack in the door, but were far from being able to cross it.
The safe haven in the distance does exist, but to Lu Mingfei and his friends, it is more like a mirage that can only be seen but not touched. No matter how fast the hovercraft runs across the vast snowfield, they can never get close to the spruce forest and the rusty pier.
"Then what should we do?" Lu Mingfei asked.
He had checked his equipment countless times along the way. The Seven Deadly Sins and the pair of Desert Eagles that had accompanied him through numerous battles since he entered school were all in a state of being ready to go into battle at any time.
No matter where Eva got the information about the Doomsday Faction and that its leader was Lu Lincheng, it could not stop Lu Mingfei from seeing with his own eyes whether the truth of the past was buried in the destroyed port.
Anyone who stands in his way is an enemy, just chop them to pieces.
When the hovercraft stopped moving completely, a crisp click sound suddenly came from the cabin. It was Chu Zihang suddenly pulling the safety bolt of his submachine gun.
Large groups of black shadows stood up from the snow on both sides of the hovercraft. Their bodies were hollow, and they wore black hoods and black wind cloaks. They hung their heads, and their skinny and pale wrists also hung down. The skin was so thin that the green blood vessels underneath could be seen winding like a group of snakes.
It was so similar and so familiar, as if the next moment they were about to face the one-eyed giant Odin riding on an eight-legged Pegasus.
"If the king wants to conquer his subjects' territories, why should he ask for their consent?" Eva's voice suddenly turned cold.
Then, the golden pupils under the hoods of the countless black shadows gathered on both sides of the hovercraft lit up one by one, and dim light flowed on their pale cheeks.
Lu Mingfei was suddenly stunned. His face suddenly changed and became so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out of it. His body leaned forward slightly, with his face almost touching the glass window.
The black shadows are not Deadpools at all. They are clearly young people who are malnourished and even immature.
Ling's breathing stagnated, and she saw the faces of those people clearly. The huge horror and confusion pierced her brain like a needle piercing her temple.
They were all familiar faces.
Hiding under the black cloaks, with pupils as flickering as flames, they are clearly the young men who were imprisoned with her in Black Swan Harbor many years ago. The girl facing Lu Mingfei just outside the glass window is called Khorkina. She is tall and slender, and even if she is as dry as a dead skeleton, you can still tell how stunning her appearance was when she was healthy.
When the Black Swan and other things were still operating normally, Khorkina was the most beautiful girl in the entire port. She was one year older than Zero, and her curvy figure was very eye-catching under the white robe. Her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a princess, and she always combed her long golden hair into a long braid.
The young man next to him had prominent cheekbones. He was Anton, Herzog's favorite boy. He was mature and steady, and he always cooperated with the doctor to manage all the children in an orderly manner. His words were gel, a lower-level word of the Wind King's Eye, which could make the air in a certain range viscous. All humans in this area would die of suffocation due to lack of oxygen. For some reason, Lu Mingfei seemed to see the shadow of an old man on Anton's face. That old man was Caesar's uncle Frost.
Besides, there are Yakov, Rebalko...
Every time she recognized someone whose name she could remember, Ling felt more terrified. She quietly clenched Lu Mingfei's fingers, and the Word Spirit. Mirror Pupil was silently activated.
Under the scanning of the mirror pupil, which had always been successful in the past, the dark shadow outside the window seemed to not exist at all.
To them, those dark shadows existed.
But in Jingtong's view, there was nothing where the black shadow was.
Ling trembled all over as she scanned the faces of the shadows one by one, waiting in her heart for an even more horrifying fact to appear before her.
Sure enough, in an inconspicuous corner among the shadows, she saw the petite shadow, the girl with dry white hair and freckles on her face.
It's herself.
Renata Yevgeniya Chicherina.
T3-001.
In the long silence of zero consciousness, it seemed as if the world had become a fragile soap bubble, and everything related to her would shatter with the slightest touch.
The sudden sense of unreality made Zero feel a little dizzy. Everything related to Black Swan Port seemed terrifying to her. Khorkina should have died in the fire many years ago. She witnessed with her own eyes the long golden hair burning in the steam in the ventilation duct.
In the air filled with high doses of hallucinogens, Anton and Yakov fought like wild beasts for Khorkina's favor. In the end, Yakov won and Anton's carotid artery was bitten. A huge amount of blood gushed out like a fountain, splashing on the ceiling. At that time, Zero was curled up and shivering in the ventilation duct on the ceiling. The hot blood cooled into black spots on her skirt, which smelled fishy in the end.
All the dead children who had been burned to ashes along with the Black Swan Port have returned, just like Dr. Herzog, who turned into a greedy devil in an attempt to usurp the throne of the White King. They have also turned into evil spirits and are once again surrounding the graves of this port...
But what about her? Who is she?
Zero's pupils burned involuntarily and turned into golden torches. Everyone looked at her with curiosity and horror, as if they were looking at a monster.
Chu Zihang's face turned into Rebalko's face, Bunin's face turned into Anton's face, and Susie turned into Khorkina. They danced around her and performed crazy movements, as if they were performing a vulgar sacrificial ceremony.
But suddenly, an angry will tore it all apart. When Ling raised her eyes, she met Lu Mingfei's eyes that were bursting with bright fire. He held her in his arms, and the feeling of unreality receded like a tide.
"It should be just an illusion, or it's a clone." Lu Mingfei said, gently patting Ling's back. Ling then realized that he was soaked in cold sweat, and his whole body was twitching and shaking like an epileptic.
Others were indeed looking at her, but not with fear or hatred, instead, concerns were etched on their faces.
Zero suddenly woke up. Indeed, she had lived in Black Swan Port for many years. The port was not grand, and the number of children it could accommodate was always constant. Until Dr. Herzog left and the port was destroyed, the number of numbered children was only 38.
Looking outside through the double-layer resin glass at this moment, the dense black shadows are like countless raindrops pouring down from the sky, thousands or even tens of thousands times more than 38.
With the pitiful supplies that Black Swan Port can receive from Moscow every year, there is no way to feed such a number of embryos. So these things are undoubtedly illusions created by the Nibelungs to confuse people.
At this time, an incredible scene appeared. Every body and every part of the hovercraft was faintly emitting a fluorescent blue glow. The faint glow was like an alcohol flame burning on the surface of an object. Chu Zihang pulled out Murasame and protected Susie behind him, while Bunin hugged the box that he never left in his arms. The box contained the last evolution medicine that was said to have been brought out from City 023.
A fierce spiritual shock came down from the sky, like an ancient king slowly drawing aside the curtain in the clouds and casting a look of divinity overlooking the world.
Lu Mingfei suddenly understood how Senior Eva was going to send them into the Nibelungen hidden in the storm.
Krisja stood up and looked around blankly.
The originally calm blue light suddenly began to ripple as if it were placed on the surface of a pebble lake. The ripples became larger and steeper, until finally all the light gathered in front of Lu Mingfei.
In a moment, a slender girl with her skirt and hair slightly lifted appeared in front of everyone. Her long curly hair was a pale light blue, and even her long skirt was the color of the sky washed by water.
Eva stood in front of Lu Mingfei, her collarbone was exposed and her long legs were pressed together. When her skirt was lifted, the taut curve of her calves could be seen.
She tilted her head to look at the man in front of her, her hair hanging down, her face clearly showing the joy of reunion after a long separation, but the aura of her body was so majestic that the people around her could hardly stand.
Krisja's reaction was particularly violent, and she almost fell to her knees if Zero hadn't grabbed her arm in time.
In terms of power, the lethality that Eva Lawrence can display may not be as good as that of a prince who is not so powerful, but her authority comes from the Holy Relics, which is equivalent to an artificial dragon king recognized by the world, and her crown position is comparable to the four kings.
When the king comes, the subjects have no choice but to kneel down and worship him.
Lu Mingfei smiled, his golden eyes burning, and another spiritual power bursting out from his body dispelled Eva's domain.
The reason why the ancients had such a hard time fighting against the Dragon King was not only because dragons were much stronger than humans and the power of words caused huge casualties to the hybrids at the time, but more because of the mental shock between life forms from different dimensions.
During the Summer Mourning incident, Lu Mingfei's ancestor Lu Shanyan almost lost his mind when facing the Dragon King Li Wu Yue because he looked directly into Li Wu Yue's golden eyes. He became the Dragon King's most loyal servant, and for this he even had to cut his own eyeliner and pierce his eyeballs.
"Junior brother..." Chu Zihang cast a puzzled look at Lu Mingfei, but he did not ask the next question. The scene before them was too unbelievable, and they did not know what happened to Eva, but at least now it seemed that this girl was on their side.
"Don't ask too many questions and don't say too much. Just keep your character of being a killer with an expressionless face." Eva raised a finger without turning her head.
Chu Zihang shut up immediately.
Regardless of what impact what is happening now will have on the next action, Chu Zihang, a man with authority level above A in the academy, is not the first time he has seen Eva's true face.
This seemingly frail and swaying girl is actually a fully automatic human paparazzi, who has in her hands all the high-definition black history of everyone in the academy from birth to the present.
Chu Zihang didn't want the photo of himself peeing in the street as a child to be made into an ultra-high-definition photo booth and mailed to every member of the Lionheart Club.
Eva looked around with her phoenix eyes, walked to Lu Mingfei's side and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, looking at the wasteland in front of the hovercraft.
She opened her arms, as if the whole world was applauding her at this moment. The swirling storm collapsed in an instant, and the king's majesty was like a hundred-meter-high tide pushing towards the safe haven.
Cast iron street lamps appeared in front of them, lighting up one by one, illuminating the passage that pierced the storm and led directly into the Nibelung.
At the end of the passage stood a towering copper pillar. The steel-forged dragon skeleton on the pillar seemed to come alive, spewing a faint blue breath towards the sky.
The safe haven was forced to be exposed before them so nakedly.
The dark shadows around him shattered like bubbles.
Chapter 600 Chairman Lu
Lu Lincheng sat in the dark conference room. The conference table in front of him was empty, but the gilded ancient Greek numbers on the tabletops facing each high-backed solid wood chair were lit with dim lights, which meant that all the committee members were present at the meeting. Since their party separated from the Secret Party, there were very few meetings like this that could bring all the committee members together, except for the annual routine parliament.
Another man was sitting at the end of the long table. Compared with Lu Lincheng, he looked older, but equally handsome. It was obvious that he was a big shot whose words were law when he was young.
If Lu Mingfei was here, he would recognize him. This guy has a face exactly like Alexander Bunin.
Bunin folded his hands and pressed them on the table, pursed his lips, and his face was as hard as a statue.
"Alexander Bunin, we have heard your testimony. Even if Verkhoyansk hides the secret of the Glorious Banner, this is still not a reason for you to bypass the committee and issue an extermination order to wipe the city off the map." The digital module of No. 7 on the conference table lit up. "This is an extremely evil, anti-human and anti-social war crime. Before we put an end to this crime, you have killed more than 31.8 Russians living in the Arctic Circle and had a medium-intensity direct conflict with the army, increasing the possibility of the safe haven being exposed to %. For this, the committee will have to pay more than billion US dollars to deal with the aftermath."
"I will transfer 5 billion US dollars from my personal account in the Zurich Bank to the committee's fund as compensation for this incident and for post-disaster relief and expansion of various shelters." Bunin originally hid his face in the darkness, but now he leaned forward and his eyes were exposed.
Those were a pair of golden eyes that looked like those of a dead person and were covered with gloom. The fire in the golden pupils was completely suppressed by the pale cataract, but it still seeped out from the edges of the eye slits.
All digital modules were turned off at the same time. Given that similar meetings were not conducted offline, the participating committee members were able to discuss with each other through other means during the meeting without worrying about breaking the rules.
A woman's voice sounded after a moment.
"This is not a matter of funds. I think you should know..."
"Eight billion." Bunin smiled, revealing teeth that were so sharp that they didn't look like human teeth at all.
"It is best if the secret of the Glorious Banner is buried forever in the icy sea. In order to keep it in the grave, the lives of insignificant people are not assets that cannot be abandoned." No. 10 said.
Bunin sneered disdainfully, but said respectfully, "Of course, all this is for our great cause."
"Then let's vote. Twelve commissioners from a total of twelve shelters from the Safe Haven to Gaia's Residence. I recommend sentencing Alexander Bunin for crimes against humanity. In view of the fact that Ragnarok is approaching, all humans who have not entered the shelter after the apocalypse will be destroyed by the flood of the new era. He should be fined $1 billion and sentenced to years in prison." The digital module of No. flashed.
"pass."
"pass."
"pass."
"..."
From No. 1 to No. 11, every committee member expressed support for the resolution, until Lu Lincheng, who had the No. 12 logo on his chest, the meeting room fell into silence.
"Chairman Lu, do you have any different opinions?"
"No, I agree with your verdict." Lu Lincheng pushed his glasses, and the face of the middle-aged man who looked quite gentle twitched, revealing a smile.
"I just wondered, if we finally made this decision, why not just eradicate Verkhoinsk?"
"We have the best hypnotist, we just need to..."
"Hypnosis is by no means a foolproof option. Until now, we still haven't figured out the functions of the various structures of the human brain. As long as memory is still hidden in a person's subconscious, it may always be activated again by some unexpected situation." Lu Lincheng crossed his fingers, his graying hair making him look inexplicably vicissitudes of life, and there was a kind of cunning that came with the precipitation of time, like a wolf that has lived for thousands of years and has become a demon.
"The data left in the census at the end of 2010 showed that Verkhoyansk still had a permanent population of 1309 people... The law enforcement team directly under the committee stopped Alexander Bunin from executing the extermination order on Verkhoyansk, which eventually led to more than 500 people being forced to evacuate from the Arctic Circle. Even if the failure rate of the hypnosis is 1 to 100, at least five people will reawaken the memory of the massacre in Verkhoyansk after a certain period of time... We claim to have obtained half of the resources and technology from the secret party, but there are still more secrets that we have not inherited, such as the alchemical matrix that can directly distort the world's cognition from the cause and effect. The school board can even force the cognition of ordinary humans worldwide to distort the Tokyo incident from a human attack to a natural disaster. It is simply a fantasy for us to want to do such a thing."
The conference room was as silent as death. Bunin raised his hands from the table. His forearms were extremely long, like spider limbs. The muscle tissue attached to the bones was dried and shriveled, and the skin on the muscles was completely wrinkled like leather.
It was a really weird scene. This guy seemed to have completely lost his human identity. He could not be called a human. He looked more like a monster that had never appeared in the world. In the dim light, Bunin's carotid artery exposed to the air looked like a throbbing green snake.
He covered his mouth and put on an exaggerated smile without making a sound. He looked towards Lu Lincheng, his golden eyes, which were covered with pale shadows, and flames of greed and sarcasm were jumping in them.
"What are you going to do? Detain all those people in the safe haven? But Chairman Lu, your shelter was built after rigorous calculations. Any species outside of the unique ecosystem that enters it may cause the ecosystem to collapse." No. 4 said coldly, "Or are you going to kill them?"
