Light Barrier

Chapter 666

In the dusty attic, the old man sat in a wheelchair.

Ian is now one hundred and twenty-one years old.

He has witnessed the changes in this continent for more than a century, and is honored as a "living fossil" by scholars at the College of the Holy Cross. However, he is now too old to speak and needs to rely on spiritual link equipment to convey his voice.

Hooper stood behind the wheelchair and gently pressed his hands on the old man's shoulders.

The old man coughed violently, and the mental link device trembled wildly. Inevitably, the sound coming out also became rough and chaotic...

Gu Shen looked at this scene and sighed inwardly.

Ian is just too old.

I am afraid that even the "spiritual link" is difficult to carry out.

Hooper leaned down with worry on his face, and the old man raised his neck with difficulty, and the two whispered a few words.

He said seriously: "Mr. Xiao Gu, the teacher thinks there are two more suitable candidates..."

"One is Mr. Holling from uptown."

Uptown?

The core city of Central Continent covers a considerable area, equivalent to the "Central City" of Beizhou and the "Guangming City" of Xizhou. Due to the twin divine radiances of the Tower of Source, the "Upper City" has lived up to its name over the years. It can be said to be the "first city" among the five continents.

"Mr. Holling is a professor at Holy Cross College. He is very talented and prestigious. He secretly joined the Ancient Literature Society after the 'Slaying' incident." Hooper said slowly: "Two years ago, Mr. Holling I once came to Linz to visit the teacher.”

Gu Shen remembered the name.

It's just that setting off to go to the city is not a good idea. The Tower of Source is shrouded in light, and if you go, you will definitely receive many looks.

It is said that there are many masters in the upper city and rich resources. Under the blessing of the two gods, the extraordinary geniuses born there are no less than those in Beizhou... Central Continent is located in the center of the five continents. Most of the young geniuses here have not experienced the front line. The grind of life and death on the frontier.

But after all, there are two gods sitting on the throne!

The help these two fires can provide is really great!

According to rumors, the Tower of Source is as high as the sky——

When people look up, they can only see the blue clouds, but not the top of the tower.

It is because of the intertwining of the divine power of the two fires that an absolutely perfect "dream" was created.

Stepping into the tower is equivalent to stepping into the "divine dream".

There are countless wonderful things here.

It is said that the prophet who mastered the art of divination is in a certain dream in the Tower of Source. His physical body has long since withered, but his spirit can remain immortal for decades.

And all the geniuses in Central Continent flocked to the upper city.

After completing part of the trial in the "Deep Water Zone", their realm of enlightenment has stopped, and they can step into the Tower of Source for deeper training... The two gods will not reject anyone who comes, opening the source to the world. The gate of the tower and the dreams on the first ten floors are made of fire. All young extraordinary people, as long as they have the courage and determination, can try to come here for spiritual trials!

The ten levels of dreams at the front have stopped countless geniuses.

It is not easy to be defeated.

If you want to become an "apostle" of the Tower of Source, clearing the tenth floor of the dreamland is the first step on the road.

"It's a coincidence that Mr. Hollin's hometown is actually in the small town of Linz."

Hooper smiled and said, "It's just that he lives in the city all year round and only returns home occasionally... He lives not far from the end of the street."

"Where's the other one?"

"There is another one, right in the Rhine."

Hooper said slowly: "Have you ever heard of the Rhine City's 'Wind Rose'?"

"Wind Rose?"

Gu Shen didn't know much about the information from Central Continent.

Due to the "balanced" information processing and Zhongzhou's always low-key style... many of the powerful people here have never participated in the "parliament", but Chu Ling's spiritual sea is linked to the database, and the file is sent over the next moment. .

"Caroline Ye, an A-level transcendent with the ability 【Blazing Thorns】, once challenged the illusion of the two gods in the Tower of Source, but stopped at the ninth floor... was given the role of Star Envoy of Rhine City, so she left the upper city, Stationed in the Rhine, she is called the 'Wind Rose' because of her powerful abilities, violent personality, and extremely fast movement."

A picture of a beautiful woman with bright red wavy hair came into view.

This woman was extremely beautiful and charming.

Just looking at her face, it's hard to associate her with a "violent personality".

However... the title "Wind Rose" is very appropriate. She seems to be very difficult to mess with.

"What is a Star Messenger?"

Gu Shen asked silently.

"As the core capital of Central Continent, Shangcheng is also the sacred city where the Tower of Source is stationed. It will send a large number of extraordinary people to garrison the major cities... There is no so-called 'three institutes and five great masters' in Central Continent. There is only one Tower of Source, so It is those priestly officials who came out of the Tower of Source to take over the important task of maintaining the extraordinary order."

"Star Messenger is the collective name for 'Star Messenger'."

Chu Ling explained: "In Zhongzhou, under the title, no matter whether they are strong or weak, as long as the Tower of Source has given the 'divine position', they can be called 'Star Envoys'. They will get a sealed artifact robe, It is similar to the one of the Blessed Son of Light, but the quality is different. The number of stars engraved on the shoulder sleeves means the level of status, and in a sense, it also reflects the strength of the strength."

Gu Shen was stunned.

Due to the illumination of the pale headlights, the entire waiting corridor of the platform was illuminated palely... but a long shadow extended in front of him.

Huo Lin slowly raised his head.

The man was standing at the exit, with his arms folded, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"Long time no see, Hollin."

There was a flirty smile in the man's voice, and he spoke to Huolin in the tone of an old friend reuniting.

Huo Lin stared at the black shadow blankly.

He couldn't see clearly.

"No, that's not right..."

After the man spoke, he quickly shook his head and said with emotion: "I'm sorry, I shouted wrong."

"Should I call you now...the distinguished Professor Holling?"

"Now you are admired by countless people in the college in the upper city. You have fame, identity, and status. Today, you have everything. You are no longer the unknown person in the laboratory who knocked over a bottle. , the little assistant will be scolded so bloody."

Huo Lin's expression suddenly turned pale.

"Tsk, tsk, I really didn't expect that more than 20 years later, you are still as young as ever. Compared with back then, there are just a few more vicissitudes... It seems that you have followed the right teacher."

The figure stood in the darkness, stretched out his hand to touch his chin, and said with a smile: "You guys have been studying 'things like that' for these years, right? Are you coming back this time to share the latest results?"

"Who are you?"

Huo Lin's expression turned gloomy.

Countless memories flashed through his mind, but he could not equate any memory with the face of the man in front of him.

"It's so sad..."

The figure moved forward slowly.

The lights went out, the bright corridor was instantly submerged in darkness, and the wind howled.

Huolin rushed forward. He pulled out a bare cross sword hilt from his arms. At the moment when the source of matter was infused, a laser shot out instantly.

"Do the civil servants of the Deep Sea First Order also dare to draw their swords against me?"

The shadow crossed his arms and said with a smile: "You are so brave."

He looked at the man with the sword drawn like he was looking at a clown.

next moment.

Huo Lin threw the laser sword, but his target was not the black shadow, but the alarm on the roof of the corridor...

"Not bad...it still has some brains."

The black shadow watched as the laser was thrown and pierced the alarm.

The entire corridor was still quiet.

He said softly: "If I hadn't been fully prepared, how could I have dared to return to Central Continent, how could I have dared to come to you..."

Huo Lin was stunned.

"Don't worry, no one knows what happens here."

"【The Deep Sea】 is invisible."

The black shadow advanced slowly. He stretched out his big hand, grabbed Huolin's neck, lifted the man up, and lifted his feet off the ground. It was only at this moment that Huolin's eyes gradually adapted to the darkness.

Between the suffocation, his vision turned scarlet.

As if shrouded in a dream, he actually saw faces one after another, constantly changing on this person's face.

All were strangers' faces.

Until the end...

He saw a "familiar face" covered with scars and 90% burned.

"It's you?"

Huolin could no longer squeeze out any sound. Under the influence of the huge force, his eyes almost popped out.

"you are still alive?!"

"It's me...thanks to you, I'm still alive and well."

The figure smiled to himself.

The next moment, he suddenly exerted force, and with a click of his fingers, he broke Huolin's neck.

"Snapped--"

A dull sound of falling sounded in the quiet corridor.

Huolin's body hit the ground, and blood flowed from his seven orifices, and soon... the corridor was dyed red.

The briefcase and drawings he carried with him were scattered all over the floor.
