Coming out of Fincher's office, walking down the long hallway, the walls here are lined with rows of paintings about classical mythology, from Norse mythology to Greek mythology, from Greek mythology to Chinese mythology.

In the background of the wall are a messy collection of quaint characters, which modern archaeologists call "runi" symbols, which Long Yun now knows are only a small part of the Lunas script.

The lights suddenly dimmed, and then came back on, and so on several times, like in a horror movie, when something bad will pop out of the side at any time.

"You made a deal with the old man?" A childish voice came from the flickering darkness and light.

Long Yun stood still, breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't need to look, he just needed to listen to the voice, and he knew that it was the naïve old antique Hela who was talking to him.

"Hey! This is the territory of the Moriahs, do you dare to appear here? Aren't you afraid that people will come to besiege you all day? ”

The antique hadn't been seen for a while, and since the First World War in Paris, Hela hadn't bothered herself.

"It's okay, I mentioned to you, in my realm, time stopped, now this space is stopped, only you and I are alive, everyone else is 'dead'." Hela is clearly quite confident in her abilities.

"Why don't you go back to the Underworld by yourself? Why bother me? Long Yun said unceremoniously.

When it comes to this, Hela is like a cat with its tail stepped on, both hated and helpless.

He stomped his foot, gritted his teeth and said, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have fallen to this point." You think I want to mind your business? In the middle of the night, if it wasn't for you and the old man talking sneakily in the room, I would have fallen asleep. ”

"Ouch, how fresh! The Grim Reaper also sleeps? Isn't death an eternal sleep? Long Yun couldn't help but ridicule Hela, "You have lived for tens of thousands of years, and no one has ever taught you that eavesdropping on others is a toppery hat?" ”

Hela didn't seem to pay attention to what Long Yun said, and only walked back and forth on the thick cashmere carpet in the hallway with her bare feet, like a playful little girl, and with every step of her foot, the thick and soft carpet would sink like the sand on the beach.

"It's so comfortable, it's better to live in the world." Hela looked up and said, "I haven't been here for nearly 20,000 years, and after the Battle of Doom, I didn't expect humanity to be able to rebuild this world so quickly, when the whole world was burned to the ground. ”

"Okay, I don't have time to listen to you sigh here, I need to go to bed early and rest, and I have to have a blood test tomorrow." Long Yun remembered that when he was a student when he was a child, on the eve of every physical examination of liver function, Dean He had to go to bed early by himself, so as not to be inaccurate when the blood was drawn the next day.

"Pedigree identification, right?" Hela said: "The Moriahs played this game, and before the end of the war, they always thought that their blood was supreme, and that ordinary humans were only slaves in their eyes. ”

"What? Sounds like you have a high opinion? ”

"I don't dare to say it, but if you really go to take this kind of test, I'm afraid you won't be able to end it." Hela leaned against the wall of the hallway, staring at Long Yun with an old-fashioned look.

Long Yun was shocked, and some strange feelings as thick as ink poured out from the bottom of his heart, and in an instant, like a dark cloud suddenly floating in the clear sky, his heart was covered in darkness.

I don't know why, Hela's words are like an incomparably sharp arrow, accurately shooting at the softest bullseye in my heart.

"Why do you say that?" Long Yun licked his lips, in fact, he really didn't want to ask Hela. Asking a primordial species of Atlantean blood, a Grim Reaper who stands on the opposite side of the Skydome Corporation, is obviously a somewhat comical question.

"I've been thinking about your performance in Paris for the past few days...... I don't understand why you have such a strange power, a power that seems familiar but has never been seen before. Hela's expression suddenly became very serious, "I haven't even figured out who you are, but I am sure of one thing, even if you can pass the bloodline test, you won't be able to pass the bloodline test." During the test, you will surely unleash the natural powers that do not belong to Moria at all, as you did in front of the abandoned factory in Paris. ”

"So what?" Long Yun said.

"How? From what I know about the Morians, they will slaughter you like an animal all the time. Hela said, "I know you won't believe what I say, but in your current consciousness, it's like being brainwashed into thinking that the Atlanteans are a heinous alien race that wants to enslave you and ordinary humans." When you listen to Finch's words, you always feel that you are on the side of justice, believing that you are a half-breed of Moriah, and that you are fighting a holy war for the human world to defend the earth. Am I right? ”

"Actually, I'm not as great as you think." Long Yun suddenly sighed and said: "I have never been a person with lofty ideals, being a mercenary is just for money, and agreeing to join the Tianmu Company is just to avenge my dead teammates, that is my style of doing things and the principle of being a man, if you want me to dedicate myself to all mankind, I think I must not be so great." ”

"Otherwise, you can leave now, taking advantage of the dark moon and high wind tonight, with your skills, you can completely cross all the defense systems in the blue zone and the green zone, I can tell you where you can find the alchemy passage to the underworld, as long as you bring me back to my territory, I will be in the underworld in the future, you will be one person under ten thousand people." Hela's eyes showed a seductive look, like a wicked mother-in-law who abducted a child.

A strange timidity suddenly penetrated from the bottom of the heart, like a cold snake, slowly winding the whole heart, and the colorful snake body was blurry and mottled, making people a little dizzy.

Long Yun felt a little hot on his face, wondering if he had drunk too much damn Japanese whiskey in Old Man Finch's office just now, and warm beads of sweat slowly oozed from his back, and a warm feeling surrounded him.

The whole person seemed to relax, and he almost blurted out that he agreed to Hela's terms.

Suddenly, a deafening bell sounded around him, and he didn't know where it came from, shaking Long Yun all over, and the whole person was like waking up from a dream.

"! In the middle of the night, how can there be a bell? He felt very strange that in a modern company like Tianmu Company, there was such an ancient facility.

Hela's face changed, her face became hideous, and the sound of the bell seemed to make her very uncomfortable, at first her face became more and more pale, and then she directly covered her ears and squatted on the ground.

"Don't knock!" She screamed, and the person turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared into the air.

The surrounding scenery has collapsed, like an oil painting that has weathered and peeled away due to age, and pieces began to crumble.

After a few moments, calm returned to the hallway, there were no bells, no human voices, and Hela was gone, eerily quiet.

"Why are you still here?" Finch's office door was pushed open with a babble, and the doctor looked at Long Yun standing in the corridor in surprise, as if he didn't expect him to stand here, "It's been almost half an hour, why haven't you left yet?" ”

Long Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead, raised his wrist and looked at the Casio military watch, sure enough, more than twenty minutes had passed since he left Finch's office.

time, back to normal.

"It's okay, I just think the oil paintings here are pretty good, so I can't help but stop and take a look." Long Yun made an excuse for himself.
