Fourth Ring.
Hitomi Hakuzuki turned her head to look at the smoke giant and the black horse in the sky. Her expression was solemn.
Lu Mengna's information was correct. The Blacktide had indeed arrived!
"Sister Na, you're a mutant. I can't bring you to the Third Ring, so you have to find a place to hide first.
When this is over, I'll find you again! "
The red ghost-like Lu Mengna nodded at the ahoge and quickly flew into a house to hide.
She was a ghost without a physical body, so it was relatively easy for her to survive in the chaotic Fourth Ring.
After solving Lu Mengna's problem, Hitomi Hakuzuki began to talk to the Third Ring's guardian.
"Hello, my name is Hitomi Hakuzuki. I'm now applying to enter the wall as the Alliance's Mech Armor Design Engineer."
The guardian looked at the young ahoge and subconsciously wanted to say nonsense. But when he saw Hitomi Hakuzuki looking straight ahead, he held back.
"There are too many applications to enter the wall. Please wait a moment."
"Okay."
Not long after, the guardian quickly ran out and respectfully nodded at Hitomi Hakuzuki.
"Dr. Hitomi Hakuzuki, you can enter the wall now, but they …"
"They're my research team. They're very important, so I have to take them with me.
My highest authority is 50 people. There shouldn't be 50 people here, right? "
Hitomi Hakuzuki was very strong at this time. The guardian wanted to say something, but in the end, he gave up.
"Okay, do you want to enter the wall now?"
Hitomi Hakuzuki looked at the time and then looked at the chaotic Fourth Ring behind her.
"Wait a moment, one of my researchers is separated. He hasn't arrived yet."
"Then please hurry. You should know the current situation in the Fourth Ring.
We don't mean to make things difficult for you, but we hope that Dr. Hitomi Hakuzuki won't make things difficult for us. "
The gatekeeper had already made it very clear, but Bai Yuetong did not seem to understand the meaning behind it.
Or rather, she understood, but she didn't want to do as the guardian said.
"Just do your own thing."
The gatekeeper's expression was a little ugly, even though he knew that researchers were very unreasonable.
But even if he was unreasonable, it depended on the situation, right?
It was just a researcher. If he gave up, so be it. Why wait here? He was really sick.
The conversation between the watchman and Hitomi Hakuzuki was overheard by some of the members of the Circle studio.
This was especially true for the new members who had joined the Fourth Ring after the mutation. When they learned that Hitomi Hakuzuki had the authority to directly enter the wall, they were shocked.
His heart was already itching to give it a try. The inner circle! It was a place he had never been before.
The Inner Ring meant wealth and power. It was a place that everyone in the Fourth Ring Road yearned for.
In times of crisis, the inner circle also meant safety.
"Sister Bai, what should we do now? Shall we enter the wall? "
"Wait for Zhou Kai." Hitomi Hakuzuki's face was cold.
"With the current situation, how long do we have to wait?" Another person couldn't help but ask.
When he asked this question, many people's thoughts began to change.
In fact, they couldn't be blamed. The smoke giant that covered the sky and the King of Nightmares' almost sky-high body gave them too much of a shock.
And when these ordinary people looked at the King of Nightmares, their mental state would quickly become unstable and even hallucinate.
Hitomi Hakuzuki was a little uncomfortable with their behavior.
She could understand that human nature was selfish, but sometimes, people had to have a bottom line.
Once a person lost their bottom line, they were no different from a beast.
"I will judge how long to wait myself. I don't need you to remind me."
Seeing that Hitomi Hakuzuki seemed a little unhappy, the others also shut up.
They were unhappy and anxious. Wasn't Hitomi Hakuzuki the same?
Lü Luo wasn't here. Gu Fangyi wasn't here. Zhou Kai wasn't here. Even Bambusa Chinensis wasn't here.
Now, she had to be responsible for the people in the Circle.
Zhou Kai was Lü Luo's good friend, so no matter what, she didn't want to give up on Zhou Kai.
Taking out her phone again, Hitomi Hakuzuki dialed Zhou Kai's number.
The first two times, no one answered, but this time, she got through.
"Zhou Kai, where did you go?"
Hitomi Hakuzuki began to roar as soon as the call connected. But what came from the other side were explosions and gunshots. After the gunshots ended, Zhou Kai's voice came.
"I killed more than 80 mutants. F * ck, I've never killed so many.
Don't rush me, okay? It's too hard for me! "
"Is that so? Then you … be careful. "
Hitomi Hakuzuki originally wanted to rush Zhou Kai, but after thinking about it, she chose to tell Zhou Kai to be careful.
"Ahoge, this guy, at least he has some humanity. He didn't rush me!"
Zhou Kai carefully put the phone in his pocket. His left hand was a bloody mess. The branches of his right hand were also burnt.
In this state, if he wasn't careful, he would drop the phone. Then, he wouldn't be able to contact the ahoge.
Ka-ka!
Reloading his rifle, Zhou Kai looked at the Third Grade mutant in front of him.
He made up his mind!
"When enemies meet on a narrow path, the brave will win. The unlucky will be lucky in the end!
I'm going to break through!
This time, I'm going! "
… …
In the sky.
Ludi had been fighting with the Nightmare for a long time!
The white clouds from before had completely turned red. This was Ludi's blood!
Normally, he wouldn't have so much blood.
However, Ludi was very smart. He mixed his blood into the mist and mixed it with a large amount of gas to create a large amount of red mist.
Because his blood was mixed into the mist, his control over the red mist could reach a higher level.
This way, he would have the ability to fight against the Nightmare!
A disaster was a disaster, after all. It was too powerful!
Every second of the confrontation with the Nightmare, Ludi felt like he was going through a mental torture.
[Have you ever thought that it's your child?]
[Have you ever thought about its gender?]
[Have you ever thought about how Qiu Guling felt when you fought it?]
[Have you ever thought about seeing Qiu Guling again?]
[Have you ever thought about how sad Qiu Guling would be after you died?]
These strange questions appeared in Ludi's mind, constantly disturbing Ludi's thoughts.
Sometimes, he would even be distracted during the battle.
Fortunately, Ludi's willpower was very strong. He knew that these thoughts had occurred to him before, and he also knew that it wasn't normal for them to appear now.
However, he didn't let these thoughts affect his decision to fight against the Nightmare.
This time, he wouldn't compromise!
On the other side, the Nightmare's Death Flames began to disperse Ludi's mist.
The Nightmare stared at Ludi and let out a low roar.
"The people from the inner circle won't come. How long do you think you can last?
"I can probably hold on until the moment you fall."
"If you admit defeat now, you will have a chance to see my mother."
Although the Nightmare's words were very calm, they gave Ludi a huge impact.
It had to be said that Ludi was moved!
He wanted to see Qiu Guling again. He really wanted to.
Ludi's eyes gradually blurred, and a purple color lit up in his pupils.
The power of the Nightmare entered his mind, and he gradually floated towards the Nightmare.
The Nightmare's lips curled up slightly, but soon, it couldn't smile anymore.
It didn't know if it was because it was close enough, or because the blood energy in the surroundings was getting denser.
The red mist around it was like sticky blood, and it began to condense on its body.
The Death Flames and the red mist began to collide, and more and more of them became entangled.
The Nightmare kept twisting its body, but the red mist's power seemed to be far stronger than it imagined.
"What is this thing?"
When the Nightmare looked at Ludi again, it found that Ludi was staring at it without blinking.
That gaze should be called longing, right?
What was Ludi longing for? The Nightmare couldn't think of anything.
However, it was certain that the purple color in Ludi's eyes had completely disappeared.
"You're not controlled by the power of the Nightmare?"
Ludi shook his head.
"The effect of the power of the Nightmare is to distort the minds of others.
But have you ever thought that in these seven years, my mind might have been twisted countless times, to the point of being twisted to the extreme?
I haven't gone crazy, just because I don't want to. "
Ludi, who was standing in the clouds, took a deep breath and clasped his hands together. Large amounts of blood began to flow from the corners of his mouth.
"Apart from Qiu Guling, I've never exposed my Sequence in front of anyone!
From the fact that you didn't take any precautions against me after fighting me for so long.
Qiu Guling probably didn't tell you my Sequence. "
A large amount of Death Flames began to erupt from the Nightmare's body. It didn't seem to care much about the power of the Sequence.
"So what if I know? So what if I don't know?
Even if it's an S-rank Sequence, it's meaningless to me if it hasn't been developed to the extreme. "
Ludi nodded with a smile.
"Is that so? But my Sequence is called Ability! "
Sequence A-3 – Ability
Effect 1 – Ability Extraction: Extract "Ability" from a non-living object. When the "Ability" of the object is extracted, the object will retain its original properties.
Effect 2 – Energy Storage: Store "Ability" in one's body. The total amount of "Ability" stored is Vitality * 100 * Time Age.
Effect 3 – Energy Injection: Inject any amount of "Ability" into an object to cause particle disintegration.
Introduction: Inject into one's body to obtain power. Inject into an enemy to destroy heaven.
The Nightmare looked at Ludi. Large amounts of Death Flames appeared from its eyes, nostrils, and mouth.
These Death Flames were clearly much stronger than the ones before. They could easily tear apart Ludi's blood mist.
However, Ludi didn't care about the Nightmare's actions anymore.
He stretched out his finger, and his gaze was unprecedentedly resolute.
"From the moment I failed and returned to the wall, I didn't use my Sequence again.
I'm always there, extracting energy, storing energy, preparing at all times.
I was always ready to give myself a way to deal with an enemy that I couldn't deal with!
I originally thought that this move would be used against some big shot in the Inner Circle.
But I didn't expect them to be so ruthless!
In order to force a Seventh Grade to death, they actually used so many methods, even sacrificing the entire Eastern Circle!
I can't be as ruthless as them, so I can only use this move here.
Sorry, I'm a human! "
Energy Injection – Blood Explosion.
Boom!
The sky was completely covered by the red mist. The Death Flames and the blood mist began to spread and entangle in the sky.
Gradually, it spread to every corner of the world!
The originally white moon had turned completely red.
No one knew what happened to the Nightmare and Ludi.
But looking at the huge crack in the Explorer's Wall, many people could guess.
What would happen in the Fourth Circle?
…
After avoiding the Harpies in the corridor, Lü Luo returned to the main hall.
After some simple probing, Lü Luo could basically determine that the Red and White Castle was divided into three types of areas.
Safe area. As long as you didn't cause any damage, no one would care about what you did. For example, the restaurant.
Warning area. After entering, the patrolling 110 might appear to warn you.
Danger area. If you entered recklessly, you would be attacked by the guards. But after using the Death Flames, you would be given a safe identity.
Of course, this safe identity was only effective against stupid or low-level mutants.
Lü Luo hadn't tried it in front of a Lord, and Lü Luo didn't want to try it either. It was too risky.
Safe area was very safe, warning area was dangerous, and danger area had rewards.
This should be one of the hidden rules of the Red and White Castle.
How to enter the danger area safely and obtain rewards from the danger area required a lot of thought and experimentation.
But luckily, Lü Luo had a cheat, so it wasn't a big problem.
"There are still six and a half hours until 9 o 'clock. I have to speed up."
There was no one in the restaurant now. Lü Luo walked on the stairs between the first and second floor and began to think about his previous judgment.
So much effort was spent to design so many intricate mechanisms in the castle. Why would it be abandoned?
With the Nightmare's power and the speed of its rise, it wouldn't be a problem for it to become a top Mutant King like Noah.
Lü Luo even felt that the Nightmare's potential was far higher than Noah and the Stonemother's.
From its birth to its awakening to becoming an overlord, it had only taken seven years.
Seven years to turn a hazy mutant into an Eighth Grade disaster.
It definitely required a lot of ambition and motivation. Then, what exactly was the Nightmare's ambition?
"I don't have enough information. I can't determine the Nightmare's purpose in making this ceremony!
Destroying the world? I have no interest in that!
I'm here to save Bambusa Chinensis. I'll leave the matter of saving the world to the big brothers in the inner circle! "
Lü Luo maintained an optimistic attitude as he walked to the fork in the stairs on the second floor. The two forks led to two completely different doors.
The door on the left was a combination of mechanical and handmade wood. It was filled with an ancient and cyberpunk vibe.
The door on the right was a door with a sliding bookshelf. It was like a combination of a magical bookshelf and a sliding door.
"If it's a witch, it should be on this side of the bookshelf!"
Lü Luo had just approached when a parrot popped out of the clock beside the bookshelf. The parrot pointed at the bookshelf.
"If you want to go in, you'll have to answer a question from Miss Ellie first."
Miss Ellie? Linga said that the witch's name was Ellie.
A witch should be a pretty big sister wearing a hood, right?
There were many notes on the bookshelf. These notes were categorized by different colors. Lü Luo casually picked up a pink note. There were some scribbled words on it.
[Pink. What an ambiguous color.]
[If you see a helpless and beautiful girl sitting on a bench on a school field in the rain on a rainy evening, what would you do?
What would you do?
A: Take off your clothes to block the rain for her.
B: Get her an umbrella.
C: Leave without doing anything.]
Haha, only women who drank too much chicken soup would be able to think of such a stupid question.
At this time, he was already punching out, showing his true colors as a man.
Lü Luo didn't say anything. He picked up a pen and paper on the bookshelf and wrote crookedly under the note:
[D: I'll call Brother Gu, Brother Kai, Ahoge, Bambusa Chinensis, all of them.
Then I'll bet them 10 yuan on whether this woman is a mutant or not.]
After Lü Luo finished writing, he put the note back.
The parrot next to him squawked a few times and then took out two pieces of candy from its nest.
"Your answer is very interesting. Miss Ellie will like it. You'll be rewarded with two pieces of candy."
Lü Luo picked up the candy that the parrot gave him. This candy was wrapped in colorful paper. One was red, the other was yellow. The colors were bright and sparkling.
[Witch's Candy – Red]
Grade: Rare
Effect: After eating, your strength will increase by 1.
Description: You can't eat more than 99 pieces of candy. You can use it to exchange something with the witch.
[Witch's Candy – Yellow]
Grade: Rare
Effect: After eating, your physique will increase by 1.
Description: You can't eat more than 99 pieces of candy. You can use it to exchange something with the witch.
"The properties of this candy are a bit strong! If the witch's reward is so strong, then what about the Linga's reward? "
Lü Luo definitely couldn't eat the candy at this time. He held the candy and walked into the room on the right of the second floor.
After walking through a long corridor, Lü Luo arrived at the witch's room.
This could be considered a huge library. The room was very high and there were many books, brooms, and miscellaneous items floating in the air.
Lü Luo's arrival attracted the attention of the others in the room. Many of the previous groom candidates were here.
The ones that left the deepest impression on Lü Luo were the two winners.
Lü Luo remembered that one of them was called Doran. He didn't know the name of the other one.
