Vol 2 Chapter 2397: Hunting sequence

Chapter 2397 Hunting Sequence
Nice looked suspiciously at Reynolds, who was floating in the air.
Reynolds' expression at this time was also very surprised. He looked at the authority eyes that flashed red, with doubts in his eyes.
Nice: "Is this a warning that the quantity to be taken is close to the limit? Could it be that someone else entered the showroom today to take something?"
According to Reynolds, once the number of items in the showroom exceeds the limit, the authority will issue a warning.
But now Nice has complied with the rules of the showroom and only took three samples, which logically would not trigger a warning. The only possibility Nis could think of was that he was not the only one who entered the showroom today. Others, such as the researchers here, have also entered the showroom to retrieve items, so he took three more items and it was close to the limit.
However, Reynolds shook his head at this moment: "No."
"No? What is that?" Nice looked at Reynolds.
"If it is close to the limit, the yellow light should be flashing as a reminder. But now the flashing light of the permission eye is red." Reynolds stared at the permission eye.
Nice thought of what Reynolds had said before, that red is more urgent than yellow, and now the authority eyes are flashing red, isn't it... it touched the magic array?
Nice's heart twitched, and he quickly said: "What does this mean? Has the magic array been triggered? Are we leaving here?"
"No, I don't think it triggered the magic circle, it should have triggered another mechanism." Reynolds looked thoughtful: "Very familiar, but I can't remember it..."
After Reynolds pondered for a few seconds, suddenly, as if thinking of something, his eyes lit up suddenly: "I remember, my lord, I remember!"
Niss did not turn his head to look at Reynolds at this time, but looked at the door with solemn expression.
On both sides of the gate, two white steel cabins with various energy tubes were suddenly raised.
There was a loud noise, and the door of the cabin opened automatically.
Two silver-white mechanical puppets appeared before Nice's eyes.
These two mechanical puppets are in fruit form, without any clothing, directly exposing the machinery, gears, and pipes of the whole body. Under the light of the halo overhead, the parts of that body were all emitting a strange silver light.
Although they are not dressed, it is worth mentioning that they are different from Reynolds, and the mechanical cheeks are also engraved.
On the left are two "X" superimposed together, a bit like "Yao". On the right are numbers, one is 19 and the other is 18.
When Nis was observing them, the two mechanical puppets opened their eyes at the same time, and the energy pipes on their bodies broke away instantly, steaming and manic energy all over their bodies.
Click, click.
Two metal footsteps sounded.
Two mechanical puppets stepped out of the cabin at the same time.
After the three-meter-high body stood still, he slowly lowered his head, his hollow eyes locked on Nis and Kanter, and then, his eyes turned red without warning.
"The target has been locked, the moment of hunting, turn on." The mechanical voice came out from the mouths of the two puppets.
As soon as the voice fell, the puppet No. 19 suddenly disappeared. It seemed to merge into the water surface, into the surrounding space.
The other puppet with the number 18 engraved on its right cheek leaped slightly and jumped into the air. With his left hand pinching his right wrist, his right hand was out of his index finger, and his index finger was used as a gun.
A colorless energy stream shot from the hole in its fingertips, and the target was directed at Nis.
At the same time, Reynolds also recovered from his thoughts and saw the two mechanical puppets. Astonishment flashed across his face and shouted at Niss: "No, they are the base's hunting sequence!"
"On the 18th of the hunting sequence, the attack is a mental wave! If you are shot, your head will explode!"
As soon as Reynolds' reminder was over, the spirit wave was approaching Nice.
But Nis didn't move at all, because there was already an additional "person" in front of him...or rather, an additional knight's soul wearing a bone armor.
The bone armor knight waved his hand directly, and the bone armor on his arm turned into a square shield. There was also a whale-shaped relief on the shield, which meant that this set of bone armor was derived from a whale-shaped sea beast.
"The shield is useless! The hunting sequence that can operate in the showroom, the attack will not directly attack the material world, all materials will be ignored, including the shield..."
Before Reynolds' words fell, he saw the spirit wave sent by the 18th, which was blocked by the shield of the bone armor knight.
Reynolds opened his mouth wide and watched the scene in amazement.
Bone shield... isn't it of the physical world? How can you guard against mental waves?
Reynolds was a little puzzled, but in fact, as long as he observed carefully, he would find that there was a layer of dark blue energy attached to the bone armor knight's shield, which was the soul power of the bone armor knight. It is true that mental waves can hardly cause damage to the material world, but when they collide with spirit power, which is also energy, they will naturally interact with each other.
After the Bone Armored Knight blocked a mental wave, he leaped up and brandished the Bone Knight's sword and slashed towards Number 18.
When the Bone Armor Knight was fighting with Number 18, Reynolds heard wind in his ears.
Subconsciously looking back, he saw that the space not far away was rippled, and a humanoid silhouette appeared looming beside Kanter.
"Lord Ruye, be careful! Hunting Sequence 19 is proficient in space assassination..."
Before he finished speaking, Reynolds saw Kanter stretch out his hand at will and dived directly into the space ripples on the side, only hearing a bang, the mechanical puppet behind the space ripples turned into dust.
Dust is scattered in the cracks of the space.
Kanter stretched out his hand and randomly wiped the Lanwei flower Xingyue robe on his body before looking at Reynolds: "What did you just say?"
"No, nothing." Reynolds silently closed his mouth.
Too cruel... Reynolds's evaluation of Kanter was the only thing in his mind at this time.
When Reynolds' mind was ups and downs, on the other side, with a click, the hunting sequence number 18 was directly cut in half by the bone armor knight.
The mechanical structure and the gear chain fell to the ground.
An electric spark flashed on No. 18, and then the red light in his eyes disappeared. Like No. 19, he was completely destroyed.
However, No. 18 is better than No. 19, and it has at least wreckage.
The bone armor knight turned over the wreckage of No. 18, and soon brought a huge oval spar over to Niss.
Niss glanced at it and raised his eyebrows and said, "This is a rare magic material that can carry mental power. It seems that this is its mechanical core... Unfortunately, the magic pattern has been carved, and the magic pattern is broken. , Basically useless."
After that, Nice threw the spar aside.
Until then, Nice turned his head to look at Reynolds: "What did you just say you remembered?"
"What do you think of?" Reynolds was still in a daze. In his eyes, the incomparably powerful hunting sequence number 18 and number 19 were destroyed without any waves, and this made him never recover.
"Just before these two broken iron golems appeared, didn't you say you remembered it?" Nice said angrily.
Reynolds was stunned for a moment before he woke up and said: "Oh, yes... yes. I remembered it, what I wanted to say at the time was that the power eye flashed red not because we triggered the magic array, but because we were too long. Long."
Nice looked puzzled: "What? We stayed too long?"
Reynolds nodded: "My memory is a little fuzzy. I didn't have these impressions at all. I didn't remember another rule of the showroom until I saw the permission eye appeared just now: every time the showroom is opened, it can only stay for 10 minutes. Once this limit is exceeded, it is regarded as an enemy, and the hunting sequence will be pursued."
"Because this is an internal rule and a restriction on the behavior of laboratory personnel, it will not touch the magic circle. But as long as you commit it, you will end up being chased to death by the hunting sequence."
Reynolds looked guilty after speaking, which he thought of later. If you can think of it in advance, this will not happen.
"Limited time? Actually limited time?" Nice understood: "A showroom, but also a time limit for visiting? What do you think?"
Kanter said silently: "Your hidden treasure secret room, not to visit..."
Nice immediately interrupted: "That's not the same, mine is a hidden treasure room, a'secret' room, a secret room, and it is normal to have strict restrictions. This is a showroom, what does exhibition mean? And exhibition halls and galleries. The same is displayed for people to see. There must be something wrong with setting a time limit in this kind of place."
Obviously, Nice was arguing. But Kanter didn't care, and didn't continue to expose it. Anyway, he mentioned it from time to time, and it would be nice to make him sulking.
Nice calmed down for a while before accepting the result. After all, they are in other people's laboratories, and the rules are set by others, no matter how many slots they can only hold back.
"Since the authority eye...hey, the eye is gone? Forget it, it doesn't matter whether it is there or not. What I want to ask is, the authority eye flashes red, does it mean we have been discovered?"
The rest of Nice doesn't care, what he cares most is being discovered by internal personnel, causing them to look forward to their next journey.
Reynolds shook his head: "It shouldn't. The internal specifications of each showroom are different. If it violates the internal specifications, it will only be dealt with by the relative hunting sequence and will not attract the attention of others."
After all, most of the people in the laboratory are researchers, who are usually doing research. The most feared thing about research is that the train of thought will be interrupted. So unless it is a big and important matter, it will generally not be overly disturbing.
After speaking, Reynolds added: "Maybe the first three sequences will be discovered, but the first three sequences are not in the laboratory now, so don't worry."
Hearing this, Nice breathed a sigh of relief. It won’t be discovered by others, that’s good.
However, Nice noticed the other side Reynolds mentioned: "The internal specifications of each showroom are different?"
Reynolds nodded: "Yes. In fact, the overall rules are the same, but some details are different, like this one layer can stay for ten minutes, and the next layer may only last for eight minutes."
Nice shook his head, and was speechless to the rules here: "Weird and weird... I can't stay here, then leave first."
After leaving the showroom, Reynolds floated forward again, and their next stop was the second floor underground.
On the way, Nice is still struggling with the weird rules: "If you take anything over the limit, you will trigger the magic circle, which may be discovered by other people in the laboratory. But after a long time, he was hunted down by the hunting sequence. , But will not be perceived by other people. The norms here are really strange."
"The former is a basically impossible situation. Once it occurs, it means there may be theft. Whether it is internal theft or the theft of external personnel, this is a major event for the entire base laboratory and will involve many people. So it must be more serious." Reynolds: "As for the time limit, this may be inadvertent, it is personal misconduct, not too serious."
Reynolds was very organized, but Nice, who was already prejudiced in his heart, definitely felt wrong.
So, in the process of discussing ‘violation and sentencing’, their figures went deeper and deeper until they fell into the darkness and disappeared into the quiet first layer.
...
Time passed by, and I don't know how long it took, Angel raised his head from a corner on the first floor.
There are still narrow corridors all around, with forked roads everywhere.
He has been studying the magic lines and wandering along with the flow of the magic lines. At this time, he has no idea where he has been.
Angel looked at Toby: "How far is it from the entrance?"
Toby stood on Angel's shoulder, yawned, and murmured a few times, as if to say: Go forward... then turn left... and here it is.
Seeing Toby remembering the road, Angel was relieved.
But even if Toby didn't remember the way, Angel wasn't too worried, the big deal would be to walk backwards along the flow of the magic weave, and then he could return to his original position.
This time Angel awakened from the study of the indulging in the magic pattern, not because of the problem of getting lost, but because he discovered some characteristics of this magic circle, and he was going to talk to others.
Thinking of this, Angel sank into the heart tie.
The soul tie is rare and quiet, Angel murmured secretly: It is strange that Nis didn't speak.
Putting aside irrelevant thoughts, Angel said with a heart tie: "Where are you?"
There was silence and no one answered.
Half a minute later, Angel came again with doubts: "How is your situation now? Wizard of Nice, Lord Kanter, Reynolds?"
Still no one answered... No, someone spoke this time.
"Keep babble."
"Dear Lord Toby, your voice is still so beautiful even in the heart band."
Angel: "..."
No need to guess, the former is Toby and the latter is Dan Gross.
Ignoring the conversation between the two little guys, Anger directly asked Dangros: "I just asked you to pay attention to their conversation. Did they say anything? Why are they silent now? What happened to you? Didn't notify me?"
Dan Grosse's palm blinked, and his face was innocent: "Nothing happened."
"Nothing happened, why is there no sound?"
Dan Gross shrugged: "I don't know. Before they didn't speak, they didn't hear any weird conversation there."
"What are they talking about before there is no sound in the soul tie?"
Dan Gross thought for a while: "It seems to be a code of conduct and punishment. Yes, this is it."
"Huh? What?"
Dan Gross repeated it, and Toby also called out at the right time, indicating that it was true.
"Code of conduct? Punishment and sentencing?"
Angel looked confused, why did they suddenly talk about such a weird topic?
