Chapter 577: A War on Many Fronts (10)
"Action number."
There was a cold sound from the empty curved domed hall, and just a door away was the lively campus, of course, this was not an ordinary campus, because the people gathered here were all new humans who had just joined recently.
“T-Z-3。”
Mina stood in the middle of the hall and said to a metal door with no walls on all sides, there was no space in front of or behind the door, and it seemed to be just a work of art.
But what was surprising was that after Mina said those three letters, the seemingly useless metal door slowly opened, "Correct." It said.
In the middle of the door, an arc of light sparks appeared, and between the flashes of light, another unknown space was opened, Mina did not hesitate, raised her feet and walked in, and when her figure disappeared, the metal door slowly closed again.
The other space behind the door is still very much in the style of the campus, with bookshelves full of books taking up an entire wall, a globe slowly rotating on the table, an ancient pendulum ticking, and the paper on the table that seems to be still dry.
The only thing that doesn't make sense is that the room has no windows, but it's as bright as day, and it's just Mina.
Mina seemed to know what was going on, and after stepping through the door, she stood firm, "Sir, I need your help. She said.
"Help what?" A voice suddenly sounded in the room, and it was impossible to distinguish the man or woman, or even whether it was human or electronically synthetic.
"I have some questions." Mina said.
"Just ask." The voice was replaced by a gentle female voice, which made people feel as if they were in a warm embrace.
"I remember the first day I came here." Mina took a deep breath. "I'm confused, I've just returned from a world of abilities full of gore and carnage. His body was covered in blood. ”
"There was no one here, but the door was opened and I was accepted."
Mina's voice was calm, "You tell us to protect ourselves, the world may or may not accept us. But in any case, we can't just think about ourselves, we have to think about the feelings of others. ”
"Because of that. I have been restraining them, even though they have extraordinary strength, but they still stay here, and even die in obscurity in other worlds one day. ”
"The people who stay here agree with that. Because those who didn't agree went to the graduate school. We want to find a way to live in peace so that the world will accept us more gently and not upset the balance. ”
"We went to collect new free people, to stop them from being exposed, all for that, but right now, I don't understand."
Mina stared at the empty wall opposite, "You told us the Institute is not an enemy. But we wouldn't agree with their philosophy either, and now. ”
"They're gradually exposing something. And you're leaving us to sit idly by, they've brought back too much of the technology out of this world, Skynet for the Terminator, virtual reality for the Matrix, and even Transformers. ”
"They're destroying the world, do you think that's the last possible way to live in harmony? SETH has already aroused the alarm of many people, and once we are completely exposed, it is likely to cause a backlash from the whole world, and at that time, the balance will be disrupted. ”
Mina's tone was a little intense, and after she finished speaking, she gasped slightly, because she didn't understand.
This room is inhabited by the administrator of the new human on campus, who originally accepted Mina, but Mina has never seen it and does not know what it looks like, Mina only knows that the administrator seems to know everything and never makes mistakes.
Mina is terrified when she finds out that she may be entering a different world, she is a screenwriter herself and has a lot of whimsy in her head, but when these things really exist, she finds that they are not so wonderful.
Every world has rules that run in each world, just like Spider-Man will be respected in the world of superheroes, but entering the world of the X-Men will be a hunted mutant.
She wasn't sure what the future of the planet would look like, and whether she would become a popular culture cult or cause panic and war when she brought these abilities into the world.
Mina wasn't sure, because she had experienced countless worlds, the 616 universe where the Alien became a hero, and the Super Hero who was hunted down by the Alien, each world was so reasonable and there was no logical error, so she couldn't infer which direction the Earth would go in at all.
She didn't dare to gamble with the future of the earth, because if she was not careful, it would be a war in which countless people would die, and the future of humanity might even be extinct.
Mina agrees with managers that it's best not to expose themselves until there's a perfect solution, but hiding doesn't mean putting yourself in danger, and new humans also need to protect themselves.
She'd done so much for that, but now the Institute was messing with that balance, a stupid way to look like it wouldn't work, and the Administrator was eerily silent this time.
Thinking of the information that Luo Ya handed over to her some time ago that she had secretly collected, Mina's heart was sinking, she didn't want to believe what it said, but now it seems that it will be true.
After a long silence, the manager finally spoke up again, "How do you know that the world won't accept us." He said.
"Because I've been through so much of the world." Mina said, "No matter how beautiful the supernatural beings in those worlds are, there is one thing that cannot be hidden, and that is the essence of the matter, ordinary people are afraid of the supernatural. ”
"In particular, the institute has set up a large number of new SETH technology companies in several countries, and they will soon master various fields by using their technological advantages."
"Maybe many countries will be unclear about the appearance of the supernatural, or even secretly woo them, but what if the supernatural has a group of their own, or even masters many fields. They would never allow it, and at that time, it was not only ordinary people who were afraid of the supernatural, but even the state. ”
"What the institute does will completely push us into the abyss. To lead the world to war, we have to stop them. ”
"Then what do you want to do?" The manager asked rhetorically, "Do you want to fight a war first?" I don't need to worry about Mina, I have my own plan. ”
"What's the plan?" Mina's voice grew louder as she asked, "Or is your plan to secretly collude with the Research Institute and then support them?" ”
"I don't know what they told you. But I'm pretty sure they won't succeed if they try to convince me. Then give me a reason, otherwise...... I will go to that country to meet Mr. Feng in person. ”
"Don't go." "You're going to regret it, and it's useless for you to go to see him." There is nothing to talk about. ”
"That's hard to say. There may be a lot to talk about. Mina shrugged and sneered, "For example, I can ask him who Lucifer is and what kind of creature Lucifer is, and I heard that he always brings good news, which sounds good." ”
Although she couldn't see where the manager was, Mina seemed to feel it stunned for a moment. "What do you know they exist?" It asked, somewhat anxiously, "How much do you know?" ”
"Enough of them." Mina clasped her arms around her. "Don't forget, we're the Adepts, we're ...... In itself, power. ”
"I don't want to waste time here." She shook her head and said with a look of loss on her face, "This conversation was really unpleasant. ”
Mina turned and walked towards the door again, the silver-white metal door slowly opening to the curved domed hall on the other side.
"Don't go to him." "You're going to do the last thing you want to do, trust me, I have my plan, there's so much I can tell you." ”
But alas, Mina didn't listen to the manager anymore, shook her head and walked through the door, and the silver-white door slowly closed, allowing the room to be quiet again.
The wall clock was ticking, and the calm face of the house did not rise or fall with a trace of dust, and at this time, an oil painting slowly appeared on the originally empty wall, and the oil painting was quite noisy.
In the painting, there is a woman, who seems to be too old to see her face clearly, she walks gently in the painting, and then sighs, "You will regret it." "It's a pity......," she said. There is not much sand left. ”……
"You know what." Mr. Feng slowly chewed his steak, then waved the knife and fork in his hand and said, "I still don't approve of Lord Lucifer going there in person, even if that person's identity is a little troublesome, there is no need to dispatch the Venerable Archangel, don't you say?" ”
She asked the little maid who was pouring wine next to her, but she could not answer him anymore, for not only did she have no mouth, but not even ears, which had not been cut off, but had not grown at all, and her nose was smooth as if it were directly connected to her chin.
Mr. Feng pursed his lips a little boredly, and then continued to talk to himself, but at this time, the voice of his bodyguard came from outside the gate, "Sir, Miss Mina wants to see you, she ...... Yes, there is. ”
"Mina? I don't like that woman. Mr. Feng shrugged, "Tell her to wait a little longer, forget it, tell her that I went to New York......"
"No, sir, I mean she ......" Before the bodyguard could finish speaking, the door of the room was shaken open by an invisible force, and Mina walked in from the outside, while the two bodyguards slid under Mr. Toyo's feet.
“…… Right outside the door. The bodyguard spat out the last few words, and then passed out without incident.
"Oh." Mr. Feng was stunned for a moment, he looked at Mina who broke in straight in for a moment, and then put an insincere smile on his face, "Welcome." He said.
"Long story short, I don't like you either." Mina was condescendingly in front of Mr. Feng, and the scar on her face was a little hideous in the light.
As if she didn't know anything, the little maid silently picked up the food on the table, and then bowed to leave, Mr. Feng leaned back, and then shrugged, "Then what do you want to say?" ”
"What do you want to do?" Mina asked.
"What do I want to do?" Mr. Feng smiled, "I should ask you this sentence, Miss Mina, you broke into the home of the research institute commander alone at night, I would like to ask you what you want to do." ”
"You don't really think I'm here alone, do you?" Mina's expression didn't change.
"Of course not." Mr. Feng said, "So...... I'm more curious, what do you want to do? ”
"Attention." Mina stared into his eyes, "Now I'm asking questions, answering my questions, telling me the answers." ”
Mr. Feng shook his head, with a flat smile on his face, "What else can I do, it's nothing more than opening a company, if it's nothing, with all due respect, I still have a plane to New York tomorrow morning." ”
Mina stared at Mr. Feng calmly, she knew that she couldn't ask anything like this, and similarly, her mental power was not good for Mr. Feng, but before she came, she had done a lot of research and preparation.
"Who's Lucifer?" She said suddenly.
"Lord Lucifer." Mr. Feng was stunned for a moment, and pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Lord Lucifer is the honorable archangel, don't call him by his name." ”
"Honorable." Mina sneered, "You've become their lackey, haven't you?" ”
"I've known about these angels for a long time, but I just thought they were creatures from some plot, and I never thought that they were behind all this, and there are followers like you, you know." Mina looked into Mr. Feng's eyes and said word by word, "You are betraying humanity." ”
"First." Mr. Feng retorted, "The angel is not from another world, it is native here, and even exists longer than you humans, second, I did not betray humans, I just chose a higher existence, the weak eat the strong, this is the law of survival in nature." ”
"That's enough." Mina said, she didn't have the heart to talk to Mr. Feng here, "Stop this." She said, "Stop SETH, I don't know what agreement you made with the administrators of the campus, but the campus is different from you, we are a group of people with the same path, we will not blindly follow him, we will stop you." ”
Mr. Feng was stunned for a moment, and he looked at Mina, "I didn't have an agreement with any administrators. He said.
Mina was also stunned, and at this time, Mr. Feng slowly spoke thoughtfully, "Why do you think that I have made an agreement with him, I think he is just a powerful free man in the early period, and he plans to wait for this plan to free up his hands to deal with you again......"
"Now...... It doesn't seem right, you think he has a deal with us, and I don't know about him, so who is he? ”
When Mr. Feng was talking to himself, Mina already felt that it was a mistake to come this time, but what she didn't understand was that since the manager really didn't reach an agreement with Mr. Feng, why didn't he explain all this, but at this time, Mr. Feng in front of him suddenly spoke again, "Actually, you're the only one who came." ”
Mina was silent, then turned around and ran out in the next moment, by which time Mr. Feng had already stood up and shouted, "Kill her!" (To be continued......)
