The girl with white hair and red eyes is serious about revenge

Carly knew all of that, but she never told Pearls.

"..."

Hearing this, Ikan Geller still had a smile on his face, and his deep bloodshot eyes seemed to be able to see through Perlis' soul.

After a short while, the classical poet spoke briskly:

"Because she's a human being."

The light gate spread, submerging Perlis's figure, and covering her vision with endless red.

She just felt that she was rising and rising continuously.

1) Containment Breach (Part 3)

Special Containment Facility - Babel Prison

......

The "prison facility" of the Tower of Babel is located in the middle of the tower. It enjoys the highest level of control in the entire federation and is heavily guarded.

Due to the special location of the Tower of Babel, this is the most difficult area to escape from in the entire Lavis: above is the "Babel Tower Core" that can control the factor energy cloud, and below is the "competition field" with no people within a thousand miles. Whether it is on the ground or in the sky, the possibility of escaping from here is very small.

The prison part hollowed out a large area inside the Tower of Babel. The overall shape was columnar, with countless cells arranged in a spiral shape, extending downward along the contours of the interior of the tower, straight into the dark abyss.

From time to time, a crimson light would light up in the abyss, shooting arcs slightly toward the sky above, as if responding to some call from the core of the Tower of Babel.

At this moment, at the bottom of the abyss, in a circular hall built with various cables and instruments, countless researchers were quickly inputting various characters on the screen, summarizing the data. Most of them wore white coats and had a silver badge shaped like a tower on their chests - this was the highest status symbol of scholars under the [Academy]: "Senior Researcher."

Most of them were directly granted status by Laplace von Valantia, indicating their unique achievements in the field of factor energy technology. They are the most intelligent and exploratory group of people under the Federation Academy, and are valuable assets of the entire Academi Federation.

"Dip...dip...dip..."

The entire hall was dead silent except for the faint sounds of the instruments. No researcher would speak on their own initiative, as most of them relied on information networks to communicate directly and would not speak unless necessary.

In the center of the hall, where countless cables and pipes converge, a huge transparent cylinder is nailed into the floor. Liquid seems to be surging in it, and countless bubbles are constantly rising along the glass wall, tinged with a hint of red in the process.

There seemed to be a figure floating slightly in the cylindrical container.

Within the special containment procedures, all researchers were working in an orderly manner, seemingly preparing for something.

Finally, after a specific time point, the scholar sitting in front of the largest operating table stood up, slowly walked to the cylindrical container, and pressed a button on it.

His face was flat and monotonous, but he had a brown beard, which, along with black-framed glasses on his snub nose, concealed most of his facial features.

"drop--"

As the button was pressed, there seemed to be a whirlpool roaring in the darkness of the special containment measures, and all researchers felt a gravitational force pulling down from the top of the tower.

"Zizzi-"

Countless interlocking arcs extended upward from the darkness of the containment facility, through the tower, and along with the outline of the ladder to heaven, they stretched upward to the core of the Tower of Babel.

Almost at the same time, the core of the Tower of Babel responded. A wave that seemed to be able to shock the air itself came, causing the light on the cylindrical container to light up little by little.

"The eighteenth complete extraction is in progress, and the consciousness anchor test is completed..."

The scholar looked at the illuminated darkness in the containment container and once again saw the figure floating in the solution:

Her long, pure white hair fluttered in the red water, and her pretty, delicate face was lifeless, as if she had fallen into an eternal sleep.

Her body was tied up by countless transparent ropes. The thickest and longest one was fixed at the back of her neck, with light surging in it.

She is [Pure White Flame], a subject under special containment procedures.

After looking at the girl's pretty face for a while, the scholar sighed imperceptibly and then uttered the first words in dozens of hours:

"Begin extraction."

Following his orders, the researchers at their work stations began to input various instructions that had been prepared long ago. At the same time, the cables in the entire hall trembled slightly, injecting countless blood-red lights into the cylindrical container.

The scholar silently watched as the girl's body trembled slightly. Something bloody flowed out of her seven orifices, dissipated in the solution, and continued to gather toward the bottom of the container.

During the whole process, the girl's brows were slightly furrowed, as if she was experiencing some extreme pain but unable to escape from it.

"The extraction process is complete... The sea of ​​consciousness data is intact, and the virtual dream state is stable..."

"The next available extraction time will be in 25 hours, 21 minutes, and 52 seconds. Please collect the extract and maintain the target's vital signs stable."

After the cold announcement ended, the entire hall instantly became silent again, with only the sound of machines operating.

In this dark and quiet atmosphere, the scholar slowly walked to the front of the container, calmly waiting for something.

Not long after, there was a slight sound of air, and a diamond-shaped container popped out from the base. The scholar carefully grasped the diamond-shaped container, pulled it out, and observed it in his hand.

In this rhombus-shaped container, the red solidified substance was flickering with a faint light, one after another, as if it had life itself. Just by staring at the liquid in this rhombus-shaped container, the scholar felt that his mind became a little dazed.

He no longer looked at the things in the diamond-shaped container, but raised his head and looked at the girl who was contained there, his eyes flickering.

This is already the eighteenth extraction experiment they have conducted during this period. According to the scholars' evaluation of the data, this is equivalent to a quarter of the girl's life...

In other words, if she carries out about 54 more extractions, the remaining three quarters of her life will be exhausted, and even virtual dreams will not be able to anchor her consciousness.

By then, she will become a soulless body, with only vital signs but no consciousness...

The scholar sighed and gently touched the silver tower badge on his chest with a complicated look.

He stared at the girl for a while, then prepared to look away and classify the extracted samples.

However, just before he was about to shift his gaze, the girl's eyebrows seemed to move very slightly -

"Ok?"

The scholar's heart skipped a beat, and the string in his heart gradually became tighter. He continued to stare at the girl's sleeping face, and his thoughts surged rapidly.

This is unlikely... As long as the virtual dream is stable, she can't wake up... Even if there are some uncontrollable factors, they should have been noticed after the extraction was completed...

Is it an instinctive reaction of the muscles after the extraction? However, this kind of situation has never happened before...

The scholar continued to stare at the girl's face. At the same time, he carefully pressed the button on the inside of his sleeve and called the guards to report what had just happened.

Facing the special containment designated by Laplace von Valantia himself, he needed to treat it with 100% caution.

So the scholar stared at the girl's face for a long time to confirm whether there was anything abnormal.

More than ten seconds passed and the girl seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep again, with no signs of waking up.

Huh... The scholar breathed a sigh of relief. After making sure everything was safe, he turned around and prepared to classify the extracts.

However, before he took a few steps out, the entire dark hall was instantly covered by red light——

"Warning! Warning! The subject is waking up, the subject is waking up—"

The alarm sounded for just two seconds before it was suddenly cut off, as if stopped by some force majeure.

The scholar turned his head suddenly and looked towards the center of the cylindrical container, where the girl was floating in the red light.

This time, he met those blood-red eyes and the circle of light flickering in them—

——【Pure White Flame】 opened his eyes and looked down at the researcher shrouded in red light with an indifferent expression.

......

1) Containment Breach (Part 4)

In a blur, Perlis felt herself escaping from the dream, and suddenly felt a tingling pain all over her body.

It hurts so much... The stinging pain made her frown slightly, and her consciousness suddenly fell into darkness again——

"Well..."

In an instant, the broken spires, the dark earth, and the magnificent Great Wall flashed quickly in front of Perlis like pictures on broken glass.

"Immatros...Immatros...Immatros...Immatros..." The whispers floated, and red lines flowed and intertwined in Perlis's body.

In an instant, Perlis suddenly remembered where she had heard of Imhotaros mentioned by Ikan Geller.

——That was the name whispered at the top of the Tower of Babel, close to the core of the Tower of Babel!

The moment this realization dawned on Perlis, she felt her consciousness instantly anchored within her body, and the stinging pain instantly dissipated.

Immediately, she opened her eyes, and a halo lit up in her bloodshot eyes——

"Buzz-"

When her hearing returned, Perlis heard a strong roar coming down from above her head, as if trying to suppress her.

But Perlis had no intention of compromising. She manipulated the flow of factor energy by instinct, causing intense arcs of factor energy to burst out between the cables covering the entire hall, resisting the suppression from the core of the Tower of Babel.

“Ziziz—boom—boom—”

Electric arcs destroyed the equipment in the special containment facility one after another, and sparks of electricity burst out one after another. The researchers of the Federation screamed and fled, and those who hesitated were instantly struck by the red current bursting from the center of the hall, and fell down twitching.

At the same time, Perlis felt that the suppression from the top of the tower was getting weaker and weaker, and soon reached a brief gap where it could no longer restrict her movements.

Without hesitation, she quickly gathered the power created by the red lines in her body, and immediately threw a punch at the transparent wall of the container.

"Bam—"

A red light exploded, and the glass container was instantly broken. Liquid splashed out, quickly soaking most of the ground in the containment area.

The girl with long pure white hair flew out of the container, landed on the ground dyed red by the alarm light, and slowly stood up.

"ha...."

Perlis ignored the scholar sitting on the ground in front of her. She pulled out the cable at the back of her neck expressionlessly. Her eyes fixed, and countless jumping red electric snakes suddenly burst out from her frail body, breaking the cables in various parts of her body one by one, and constantly repairing the wounds left by the disconnection.

My body is wet... It's so uncomfortable... And it hurts... Perlis gently stroked the wet hair on her cheek and put it behind her ears. She quickly looked around the hall and figured out the general situation here:

This is a hall mainly controlled by scholars and researchers. It is more like a research institute than a containment procedure. No wonder they need to use dreams to anchor me and prevent me from consciously resisting...

After all, Laplace couldn't have been unaware that the Havrgards could directly control factor energy.

"..."

While thinking, the light in Perlis's eyes lit up, and she quickly calculated the concentration and distribution of the destructive factors in the hall.

Almost at the same time, she saw a scholar staggering to his feet from the liquid on the floor, running to the door of the containment area, and quickly pressing the button beside the door -

"Zi-"

There was a burst of air waves, and the door of the shelter opened to both sides. At the same time, dozens of soldiers wearing full body armor rushed into the shelter with standard rifles, pointing directly at Perlis who was standing quietly.

"Raise your hands and return to the container!" The leading soldier had obvious mechanical skeletons on his body. Perlis recognized him at a glance. He was an elite soldier called the [Silent Ones], so she stuck out her tongue helplessly in her heart.

Go back to the jar and soak? Why don't you go by yourself?

Pearlis stared motionlessly at the dozens of guns pointed at her. After a moment's silence, she raised her hands.

The leading [Silent One] thought Perlis was going to surrender, and was about to step forward when she spoke calmly:

"Put down your weapons and get out of here."

As soon as these words were spoken, the soldiers looked at each other and continued to point their guns at Perlis.

They had a whole magazine of [Factor Energy Bullets] in their hands. Even a fully equipped [Blade of Babel] couldn't survive the hail of bullets without any damage if they couldn't dodge, not to mention an unarmed weak girl who had just broken out of containment.

Seeing that the soldiers didn't seem to be willing to give in, Perlis sighed softly and muttered:

"I reminded you."

The next second, Perlis raised her right hand and snapped her fingers, and a halo lit up in her bloodshot eyes——

"Zizzi-"

At the same time, azure arcs of factor energy instantly lit up on the soldiers' gun magazines and factor energy shield generators, then broke apart, exploding with azure arcs of electricity.

"Uhhhhhhh!!"

The soldiers screamed, their bodies shrouded in arcs of electricity. The Silent One who possessed the Redstone was electrocuted by the crimson arcs, causing darkness to seep out from under his mask, and his body trembled slightly.

——This is Perlis's direct control and manipulation of genetic energy. After facing the core of the Tower of Babel, the "talent" awakened in her blood.

Perlis did not hesitate. She opened her hands and pressed them hard towards her chest, as if she was gathering an invisible object.

In Perlis's bloodshot eyes, she saw that all the destructive factors that burst out from the soldiers' factor energy bullets and factor energy generators gathered in front of her. The color became more and more intense, and soon condensed into a blood-red line.

——The Red Line!

After making sure that the red line had condensed in front of her, Perlis closed her eyes, sensing the flow of factor energy throughout the Tower of Babel, and soon found the signal that she was very familiar with.

She then suddenly pulled her hands back, and then suddenly thrust them into the void in front of her, with her ten fingers crossed and piercing into the red line in the illusion.
