Thangka still wanted to say something, but Li Yao had already crawled into the deepest part of his soul and seemed to have melded with his brain. He did not make any sound.
Thangka raised her head, only to discover that more than ten soldiers of the purge troop had surrounded them. The black barrels of their guns were right next to their heads.
Thangka could sense that her fingertips were slightly cramping, and all her cells were about to explode. Her skin was even keenly sensing the flow of a breeze hundreds of meters away. Dozens of battle plans were on the verge of popping up in her head at any moment. It was not until then that she realized that 'Grandpa Yao' had not abandoned her but had been fully prepared for the battle. She was finally more or less reassured.
Another dozens of armed shuttles flew to the top of his head, illuminating him and his monitor with the interconnected mystic rays. He felt that his every vein and every nerve was exposed to the enemy's scanning.
'Grandpa Yao', on the other hand, seemed to have dashed to the deepest part of his body like a vague mist. He was not detected by the enemy at all.
Beeps were echoing from the enemy's helmet, probably indicating that everything was fine. Very soon, more than ten cold 'iron coffins' continued moving toward them.
Chu Zhiyun bellowed and charged at the 'iron coffins' without bothering about anything.
She was indeed the most distinguished student of the Holy Light Academy in recent years. Without the Crystal Suit, she had knocked over three Purgers who were wearing Crystal Suits and looted their weapons in the blink of an eye.
However, the weapons of the Purgers had exclusive fingerprint and blood identification systems that could only be activated by the real owner. The moment the weapons fell into the hands of other people, they immediately unleashed intense electric arcs that made Chu Zhiyun cramp hard. Her hair was standing up, and zigzagging black blood was flowing out of her eyes, ears, and nostrils!
Chu Zhiyun seemed to have been locked up by a tiny cage of electric arcs, but she did not give up the hope of freedom. Gritting her teeth, she staggered forward for another three steps. At this moment, her figure seemed to have overlapped with Liao Meng's in the morning. The final result was the same. She fell to the ground, her limbs still cramping.
"Monitor …"
Thangka felt that her nose was sour, and she could not help but shed hot tears.
He felt that every muscle on his body had been tightened, like a screw that had been twisted to the end. He had the urge to fight a random Purger.
"Don't be hasty. Let's wait and see."
Li Yao's high-pitched voice echoed from the depths of the young man's soul. "It seems that the enemy's target is exactly your monitor. It is unlikely that the confinement and surveillance of a nobody like you will be too strict. This is our opportunity — the opportunity to figure out everything!"
As he expected, the Purgers tied up Chu Zhiyun and attached shackles that were made of super alloys and engraved with lightning stripes on almost every part of her body that could be shackled. The powerful electromagnetic attraction between the shackles ensured that Chu Zhiyun's hands and feet were locked together.
As for Thangka, they simply threw a pair of shackles on his back but did not restrict his ability to walk.
It seemed that the Purgers did not take Thangka seriously at all. He was just a 'bonus' for the capture of Chu Zhiyun.
Thangka's performance was also in line with his usual cowardice and obedience. He was so 'scared' that he forgot to resist and simply cried hard. "What's going on? What's going on? I don't know anything. Let go of me. I-I don't know anything! "
The Purgers who had hidden their faces behind iron masks naturally turned a deaf ear to his struggle and screams. They escorted him and his monitor to a shuttle.
Little Tiantian, on the other hand, was taken away by them to another shuttle.
Thangka's eyes were almost bursting out of their sockets, but Li Yao simply asked him to calm down. Little Tiantian was just a 'prop' for the enemy and should be fine for now. By then, Li Yao would have a way to rescue her.
Just like that, the two 'defectors' were captured and brought to the floating fortress by the shuttles.
While they were still in midair, Thangka tried his best to stick his head to the window and look down, only to see intense fire and smoke everywhere in the downtown area. He could vaguely see signs of people running and resisting. Very soon, hundreds of shuttles took off and flew to the floating fortress too.
It seemed that 'Grandpa Yao' was right. The 'ultimate test' was over. All the 'Children of Holy Light' would be tied up and captured to the floating fortress, without exception.
What … are we exactly?
Thangka thought to himself.
The closer they were to the floating fortress, the more they could see the magnificence and magnificence of the fortress. It was almost like an artificial celestial body that had swallowed the sky. Even the entrance of the garage was like the bloody mouth of a ferocious beast that had swallowed dozens of shuttles in one gulp.
Thangka and Chu Zhiyun were like two dust particles that were blown away by the wind. Together with dozens of other ignorant students, they passed through the narrow, long, and deep pathways under the escort of a team of Purgers.
Very soon, the cabin door in front of them was opened, revealing a spacious and empty space that looked like a palace and a valley. They were walking on the transparent tubes in midair, as if they were walking on a suspension bridge between canyons. On the 'cliffs' on the two sides, transparent cells were embedded, making them look like honeycombs that had been enlarged a hundred times!
In each transparent cell, there was a prisoner or a lunatic. When they looked carefully, they found that these people were all their classmates.
Not just the students who had been eliminated in the 'ultimate test', even the students who had failed to keep up with the progress or lost control of their emotions during their training in the Holy Light Academy in the past few years were all caged in this place!
Some of the students were sitting straight on the metal beds in a daze. Their eyes were hollow and unfocused as they stared at the nonexistent light spots in the void in confusion, like fossils that had been dried for millions of years.
Some of the students were walking around anxiously. Now and then, they raised their fists and smashed the transparent wall before them, leaving bloody marks on the wall. It was not until their hands were mangled that they finally sat down in satisfaction. They were still mumbling to themselves, like beasts in human skin.
There were also some students who were wearing huge helmets on their heads. The helmets were covered with colorful indicator lights, and there were also crystal wires that connected to the walls. The helmets seemed to be connected to extremely strong electric currents and spirit waves, bringing them indescribable pain, causing them to scream as if they were better off dead. However, their hands and feet were locked, and some of their joints were even directly shattered, causing them to lose the ability to move. Even the ability to end their lives was taken away.
Some of the students were locked in narrow and suffocating sleeping cabins. Their bodies were soaked in light green or pink viscous liquids as if they were caught in some kind of nightmare or illusion. Sometimes, they were twitching, sometimes struggling, and sometimes giggling. There was no telling what they had seen or experienced in their dreams.
What made everyone's hair stand on end was the dozens of cells at the bottom of the 'cliff'.
There were no people in those cells, but they were full of sophisticated instruments and maze-like tubes. All kinds of suspicious liquids were flowing in the tubes and eventually gathered in cylindrical glass tanks.
They had thought that there was nothing in the glass tanks, but when they narrowed their eyes and observed carefully, they discovered that there was a brain floating in every glass tank.
Some of the brains even had spinal cords behind them. They looked rather intact and fresh.
Some of the other brains, however, had been separated into many parts, leaving only the core brain tissue. They looked like rotten, deformed apples, as if they had been there for years.
All the brains, without exception, had thousands of crystal wires inserted into them to provide them with different stimuli. Under the stimuli, the brains would slightly cramp and react.
Those brains were all alive!
Or rather, the owners of those brains were still alive on some level!
"What … What is the meaning of this?"
"Will we be deprived of our bodies after all kinds of cruel experiments, leaving only our brains for other people to study, just like those students here? Will we still be alive in such a situation?"
"We are the 'Children of Holy Light'! We are the most loyal believers of the gods and the Ultimate Benevolence Masters. The blood of glory and holiness flows in our veins. Why are we being treated like this?"
At this moment, all the pretenses of the 'Children of Holy Light' collapsed. They vented their fear and desperation blatantly. Some of them were even sobbing in a low voice.
Thangka and Chu Zhiyun, on the other hand, bulged their big, black, glittering eyes and tried to observe more of the prison cells on the two sides to collect more useful information.
They finally passed the terrifying, transparent tube and entered a room where the floor, the walls, and the ceiling were ivory and emitted holy brilliance.
The seemingly gentle, pure white light was like some kind of poison that could corrode one's mind. It seeped into the skin and pores of every Child of the Holy Light, corroding their mind and nerves, giving them a strange feeling that their brains were completely exposed.
The 'Children of Holy Light' looked at each other in bewilderment, shuddering and feeling like crying.
Some of them gritted their teeth and grunted from their nostrils and throats, trying to fight like caged animals, but they did not know where to start.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
In front of this group of panic-stricken youths, the milky white holy light condensed into three hazy figures.
Although the three of them were different in height, weight, and even gender, they were wearing the same fake smile on their faces, making it impossible to tell them apart. They could only be identified by the color of their uniforms.
The one in the white uniform was' Xia Yuren ', the president of the Holy Light Academy.
The one in the black uniform with a bloodstained emblem on his chest was' Qiu Yuanjia ', the commander of the purge troop.
