That's right, the final result of the grouping was that Yu Yuan and Yu Huan were put into the same group, and the reason for doing so was very simple: although she was very unwilling, even Xiao Ya had to admit that the one who could cooperate with Yu Huan the best among all people was undoubtedly Yu Yuan, who was a system that existed in symbiosis with her soul. And only Yu Yuan, who was always in contact with the system by Yu Huan's side, could mobilize all the abilities in the system without hindrance. Therefore, when it came to blocking the team, the two of them were undoubtedly the best.
Tianling and Qixiao were handed over to Xia Miao by Yuhuan... Although it was just a trial and there was not much danger, Yuhuan was still a little worried about Xia Miao. Therefore, she could feel more at ease with Qixiao and Tianling by her side. After all, one of them was a ghost that others could not see, and the other looked like a pet fox. Naturally, it was not a foul or anything, and they were just right to protect Xia Miao.
Cai Xiaolin is naturally in the same group with Feng Qianxue. After all, they are childhood friends and can complement each other in terms of getting along and their personalities. The only other person in the team is Xiao Ya. Of course, this is not because she was excluded or for any other reason, but simply because in terms of one-on-one strength, except Xiao Hei, basically no one is Xiao Ya's opponent, even Yu Huan.
When it comes to her familiarity with the Sky Tower and her understanding of various matters, there is no doubt that she, who comes from the Xiao family of the Sky Tower, can be said to be fighting completely at home and there will be no trouble at all... It is better to say that compared to the situation in other places where two people are in a group, her side is more reassuring and it is easier for her to pass the trial of the Sky Tower.
"The teleportation array is right here!"
As the Twelve Towers guarding the Sky Tower suspended in the space cracks around it, their location is naturally kept secret. Not only is it open to the public on weekdays, even the teleportation array is hidden so that no one can find it. Unless the tower master personally approves, no one can approach any area of the Sky Tower. Even the Skynet is restricted to a certain extent within the scope of the Twelve Towers. The purpose of doing so is naturally to prevent some enemies on the Internet from invading the Twelve Towers.
It is the same now. Although the trial of the Twelve Towers was opened because of the tower test, it is obvious that even if the teleportation array that only allows contestants to enter is opened, at most they will be teleported to the specially designed trial area outside the Twelve Towers. It is naturally impossible to go to the real tower!
At this moment, what appeared in front of Yu Huan and Yu Yuan was a small building that looked like a telephone booth, and on it was clearly marked with the words "exclusive teleportation array for contestants" in bright white light. If you look to one side at telephone booths like this, it is not difficult to find that there is a telephone booth every three meters.
From time to time, people in various school uniforms would enter the phone booth, and then disappear with a flash of light.
"…Should I say it's convenient or down-to-earth?"
He walked into the phone booth with a complaint, and Yu Yuan also walked into the phone booth next to him. The next second as the electronic door slowly closed, Yu Huan immediately turned on the terminal in his hand.
"Om~~"
A pale blue light emanated from the terminal, landing directly on the electronic screen above. At the same time, a voice from Skynet rang out:
"Checking player information: Welcome 'Yu Huan', captain of the scavenger team, to this teleportation array. Please select the location where you want to conduct the tower test!"
"Rat Tower!"
He directly gave his answer, and Skynet responded immediately:
"Select OK, transmitting, please wait..."
As she said this, the next second a light blue light slowly flashed up from under Yu Huan's feet, and the next second she disappeared from the spot.
……
In the darkness, countless tentacle-like objects were wriggling and crawling unscrupulously in the sewer. Not long after they continued to move forward, the tentacles began to swell up. As the movement became slower and slower, they eventually transformed from long tentacles into huge meat balls that stayed in place.
"Puch~~"
The formation of the meat ball took less than a few seconds, and then sharp claws covered with black mucus stretched out from it. They easily cut open the meat ball that wrapped itself. The next second, creatures that looked like human beings but had monster-like shapes crawled out one by one.
"Woo~~Woo~~"
Just like the group of monsters that just made a sound, this group of monster-like humanoid creatures made such a shrill humming sound and slowly moved towards a certain direction in front as if they were summoned by something. However, it was surprising that there was no road in front of them at this moment. Instead, there was a mirror blocking their way, and the monsters could not pass through it at all even though they were crowded together.
"Woooooo~~~"
The figure that was unable to move forward and the humanoid monsters that kept pouring in from behind made some anxious cries. Just as they saw more and more monsters, something unexpected happened suddenly!
"Ding~~~"
It was a water-blue diamond-shaped gem that suddenly appeared in mid-air. A second later, accompanied by a faint glow, it slowly fell directly towards the group of monsters below. Then...
"Woo~~"
The first monster that discovered it opened its mouth, which was covered with fangs like a mouthpart, without hesitation and swallowed it in its mouth!
"Woooo ...
The screams, the shrill screams instantly resounded throughout the entire sewer and lasted for a long time!
17. In the Mirror
(Ahem, there's one thing I need to correct: the one who killed the ghost face was not the rabbit, but the tiger. I just realized it when I filed the outline incorrectly. It's my fault. Please forgive me!)
"Gurgle~Gurgle~"
The huge translucent flesh ball was stuck tightly in the dark sewer... No, it should not be said to be stuck, it should be said that its size has exceeded the scope that the sewer can accommodate, so it appears to be so tight, and some places are even directly pressed into a flat shape.
"Buzz buzz~~~"
Light blue magical light continuously flows in it. Under the faint blue light, one can see the shadows of the constantly wriggling humanoid monsters in the meat ball and a dazzling blue diamond-shaped crystal in the center that seems to be surrounded.
"Gurgle~Gurgle~"
The sound of bubbles rising and falling continuously came from the meat ball. With each rhythm of the meat ball, the light in the blue gem visible to the naked eye would dim a little, and at the same time, the light blue light on the surface of the meat ball would become a little stronger.
"Gurgle~Gurgle~"
In the bubble, the various actions of the humanoid monsters began to gradually weaken, until they finally quieted down one by one, and began to move towards the central gem as if attracted. At this moment, the huge meat ball was like a hatchery, using the humanoid monsters in it as nutrients and the gem as the core to create some kind of extremely terrifying existence.
"Buzz buzz~~~"
Although it has not yet been confirmed what the creature looks like, the powerful magical fluctuations that erupted from it are enough to fully demonstrate that it is definitely not a simple thing. It seems that in the next second after it trembled so violently, as if it suddenly realized something, the originally trembling meat ball suddenly shrank, and the next second everything including the light and magic suddenly disappeared from it, and then the whole meat ball seemed to fall into a deep sleep, without any movement.
"Ok?"
Almost at the next moment when the movement of the meatball just disappeared, a sudden light exclamation sounded in the sewer. However, what was strange was that there was no one present with the sound. Only after a burst of clear footsteps, a voice like a communication suddenly rang out in the empty sewer:
"I didn't notice anything unusual. Is it because your perception was wrong?"
Just when such an ancient male voice suddenly sounded, the communicator seemed to be saying something again, but because the voice was too soft, it could not be heard. After listening for a while, the male voice sounded again:
"Hey? Let me turn up the volume a bit? I don't mind it, but why are you..."
“Ho ho ho~~~”
"Wow~~~"
He turned up the volume to the maximum as instructed in the communication. However, the next second, there was no sound of talking from the other side. Instead, there was a sudden roar of an unknown beast. The man who was still holding the communicator to his ear screamed and the communicator in his hand fell to the ground almost at the same time. Not long after that, a woman's voice, which was cheerful but also a little majestic and impatient, came out again:
"Stop talking to me with that weird accent you picked up from who knows where, and I'll catch you and feed you to the shrimps!"
This sentence instantly made the man who had just covered his ears with a look of discomfort tremble all over and picked up the communicator on the ground, while saying in a small and unhappy voice:
"Tsk~~ It's obviously you who's ignorant and hasn't heard of ancient literature, so you speak in a weird tone... And the Tower Master keeps saying "I'm the King" all the time, and I don't know who of us has the more serious Chuunibyou!"
"Hmm? Did you just say anything?"
"...No, I'll say my name is Luo Luo, not Luo Suo. Thank you!"
"If I call you nagging, then you are nagging. You... have no right to refute!"
"Yes, yes, then, great Rooster Tower Master, noble Phoenix Queen: Your Majesty Ji Fengwu... could you help me continue to explore the situation here?"
Since he needed help from others, Luo Luo obviously had no intention of arguing with the other party. After all, it was during the Freshman Festival competition, and as the tower masters, they naturally needed to maintain the order and safety of the Sky Tower. Therefore, even the slightest disturbance could not be ignored!
"Nothing unusual!"
With the same mentality, this time there were no sarcastic words coming from the other side of the communicator. It seemed that the other side was quite satisfied with Luo Luo's name. After a moment of silence, the other side's voice came out of the communicator:
"Nothing unusual, you can go back!"
The implication was that there was nothing wrong with the previous investigation. However, it was this answer that made Luo Luo dumbfounded.
"Wait, wait, wait, what the hell is "no problem"? How about you check again, is there really no problem?"
Luo Luo spoke these anxious words, which instantly angered Ji Fengwu on the other side of the communicator:
"Are you questioning my words?!"
The words filled with anger and questioning made Luo Luo stunned again. He wiped his face fiercely and then said in an extremely helpless tone:
"I really don't want to question you, but your answer is obviously wrong!"
The Sky Tower is such a large place, and there are so many places where secret operations can be carried out. Moreover, now is the time when students from various colleges on the mainland come to compete. Therefore, sensing any abnormal situation is not necessarily a bad thing. Some of them may just be something done accidentally by a student!
So there are two questions: Various abnormal phenomena occur in the Sky Tower almost every moment, so why would the dignified head of the Weiyang Tower personally come to this dirty sewer to investigate the so-called abnormal magical phenomena?
The answer... is very simple!
"Isn't it because you said that there was abnormal magic here? It doesn't look like ordinary magic fluctuations and it's very powerful. That's why I rushed here specially?"
Now that I'm here, they actually say everything's fine and let me go back... have fun?!
"This king did say that!"
Ji Fengwu obviously had no intention of denying what he had said:
"But it's true that there are no more abnormal magical fluctuations there. It might just be an accident of spatial disorder, or the other party might have moved away. In short, there is indeed no special situation there!"
After saying this, it seemed as if he didn't intend to talk to this guy who questioned him anymore, and the communicator was hung up the next second.
"Hello? Hello, hello, hello... Oh my god, you're hanging up already? Oh my god~ With this personality... Aren't you afraid that no one will want you in the future?"
After confirming that the communicator was hung up, Luo Luo immediately mustered up the courage to make such a complaint, and then he looked at the dim but neat sewer full of metal pipes in front of him. After looking for a long time, he shook his head slightly, turned around and walked outside.
"I hope... it's the former!"
As he turned and left after saying this, he obviously did not see the small piece of mirror fragment at the corner of the sewer, which looked like it had been casually thrown there by someone.
What is strange is that in the empty sewer, the scenery reflected by the mirror is... a flesh-colored scene!
18.Meeting
Tianta City Central Sky Tower: The Sky Tower
In the meeting hall specially for the tower masters, two figures were currently sitting on two of the twelve seats arranged in a circle. On the other seats sat somewhat unreal projections, both men and women, with different expressions of casualness, seriousness, indifference or anger.
Among these people, the only one standing was a handsome man in casual clothes sitting in the eighth seat. He faced the shadows in front of him with various emotions and talked freely. After an unknown amount of time, he stopped talking and continued:
"That's the basic situation... From yesterday to today, there have been twelve missing persons cases in Ta City, and Ji Fengwu..."
"Cough cough~~"
"...Okay, the Queen detected six abnormal magical reactions, but when I arrived at the scene, I found nothing. But I think everyone should have a rough idea of what happened before, right?"
Having said this, Luo Luo immediately said in a tone that seemed to be smiling, but his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp:
"The Mirror Organization...has already entered without our knowledge!"
"Damn those rats!"
"It's those guys again. How long have they been quiet? Are they starting to act up again?!"
"Why did they choose the time of the Freshman Festival? Is Jing planning to completely become an enemy of all forces on the continent?!"
"Arrogant fellow, humph!"
As soon as Luo Luo finished speaking, a series of male and female voices rang out from the shadows on the other side. Their tones were undoubtedly filled with disgust and anger towards the Mirror Organization. After these complaints continued for nearly a minute, the shadow in the main seat suddenly asked in a leisurely tone:
"So... do we need to go back?"
This sentence instantly silenced everyone and turned their attention to the only two people present in the meeting hall: Wei Yang (Luo Luo) and Mao Tu, who had remained silent the entire time, silently fiddling with an object that looked like a lock or a walnut. After hearing the other party's question, Mao Tu simply raised his head and glanced at it before lowering it again as if he were uninterested. Luo Luo, on his part, thought for a moment and shook his head.
"Not yet. After all, apart from the previous incident in Tianta City, we haven't found any obvious traces of the Mirror Organization so far!"
The so-called previous events were undoubtedly the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons. When Luo Luo mentioned this, his gaze naturally turned towards one of the eight phantoms, a petite one, and he said:
"After all, the previous Night Parade of One Hundred Demons has been completely destroyed, and even the instigator, Onimian, has been killed by Xiao Mengmeng. I think this should be enough to make the Mirror Organization wary!"
"Hey? Are you calling me?"
As if she suddenly realized that someone was calling her name, after feeling everyone's gaze, the slender shadow suddenly uttered a panicked voice of a girl:
"Yes... yes, that's right. Because Ghost Face fought back desperately, I accidentally killed him... It was really because he resisted that I failed. It wasn't intentional, absolutely not!"
Her desperate denial obviously made people more suspicious whether she did it on purpose. However, at this moment, everyone obviously had no intention of paying attention to this. Instead, as soon as the girl finished speaking, a depressing atmosphere suddenly appeared in the entire conference room.
"One Hundred Demons Night Parade...Ah!"
After a long while, Zishu uttered these words with a sigh. However, just as she finished her words, an extremely rough roar came from beside her:
"Those guys from Jing were too arrogant this time. They actually wanted to use the people of an entire city as sacrifices to summon that evil creature. If Xiao Mengmeng hadn't arrived in time to kill them, who knows what kind of panic would have been caused!"
With such a vicious tone, he uttered these explosive words. Immediately, a figure as big as an ox stood up from his chair and said:
"This time... there will be no more leniency!"
This sentence instantly made the already oppressive atmosphere in the hall even more oppressive. However, at this moment, Maotu, who was still fiddling with the lock in his hand, suddenly raised his head and said in a calm tone:
"Correction: Although it was Xiao Mengmeng who killed Ghost Face, it was my student and her small team who disrupted the Hundred Demons Night Parade. Incidentally, among those who destroyed the Hundred Demons Night Parade formation was also Jing's person. I have already sent you the report on this!"
Therefore, it is obviously arbitrary to directly say that it is Jing's fault. After all, although the other party is a terrorist organization, it has been able to live in peace with various forces on the mainland for so many years without being completely destroyed. Its hiding place is one aspect, and on the other hand, of course, the other party says that they are terrorists, but there are still bottom lines in some aspects, such as not harming civilians!
"Then let's forget it?!"
The angry voice rang out again. The Rabbit did not respond, but the Rat sitting beside him continued to speak in a calm tone:
"Okay, let's talk about this later. Jing's actions this time were indeed a bit excessive. We really need to ask for an explanation after this!"
After all, even a clay man can still show some anger. The other party's act of killing and setting fire on their own territory... no, it should be said that it was an act of releasing a nuclear bomb. It obviously touched the bottom line of Tianta City, so necessary explanations are essential.
