Chapter 417 Entering the [Slave Factory] Again
This familiar scene immediately caught Chen Ye's attention.
"It's that vortex..."
Chen Ye's eyes moved slightly, recalling that this vortex was not the first time he had seen it.
When he first saw it, it was right above the Fiery Sun Church...
Now, this vortex appeared in the underground world, and it was getting closer and closer.
It was no longer a distant sight, but it felt closer and closer, showing a trend of materialization.
At this moment.
Chen Ye took a deep breath and said secretly: "The ritual... is actually related to the long river of time. This operation may be unimaginably dangerous."
"It's a pity. If I could do divination, it would be fine."
"But I am now in the queue as a witch, and there is no extra space for me to use for divination."
"Forget it..."
"When it comes to this level, even if you use the divination method of [Fate], I am afraid that you will only get a disturbed result, which has no substantial meaning."
What's more, Chen Ye knew that his [Fate] sequence profession was not very high, just a second turn.
But the level I'm involved in is almost the power of God.
Even if there are similar characteristics, it's hard to use them!
I can only see if I can hold on.
Under the sky covered by gray fog, the witch ship stopped in a narrow strait.
There happened to be a corridor in front of the reefs, and I didn't know where it led to.
"Get off the boat."
[Lord of the Night] and [Instigator Witch] walked at the front of the team, followed by the leader witch and the white-robed witch, and then Chen Ye's group of witches, dividing the team into three parallel, like a long dragon, crawling towards the cave entrance.
After arriving here, Chen Ye suddenly noticed the breath nearby, which gave him a sense of familiarity.
It was as if he had been to this place before.
After passing through the corridor...
Under the gray foggy sky, factories that stood like towers, chimneys were emitting black smoke, rising continuously, as if they were integrated with the gray sky, like a space opened by chaos.
[Slave Factory]
Chen Ye's eyes moved suddenly, and he recognized the area in front of him, what exactly was it.
Before the underground world was completely opened, in order to investigate the thugs' 20 million transactions, Chen Ye took the lead and came to the underground world. When he was exploring everywhere, he found the entrance to the [Slave Factory].
At that time, with the Eye of Luck, Chen Ye saw that this area was extremely dangerous.
Unexpectedly, this [Slave Factory] actually hid the entrance to the "River of Time", and it was related to his promotion to the fourth level?
Chen Ye once again felt that his experience was pulled by a certain "fate"...
Every place he came to was not without a reason.
"Then..."
"When I return to the alleys of Xining in the future, will there be a different space in the nearby Yong'an Market?"
"Maybe it leads to a certain place?"
Chen Ye took a deep breath and made some guesses in his mind.
It's just like the "box game" he played before. It seems to be the space where the novice arrives, but it will actually be the place where the final big boss appears?
Many games seem to follow similar routines.
So.
Chen Ye tried to analyze how his trip to the alleys of Xining, meeting the old man with the erhu, and learning cooking skills from the old lady selling chestnuts, would be related to this "fate"...
Like a key, you need to find the corresponding door and unlock the answer.
"Perhaps...interpreting fate is also part of the strategy for this city of destiny?"
Suddenly, Chen Ye recalled the tone and emotion used by the old man with the erhu when he mentioned the word "city of destiny", which was full of some strong feelings.
Now thinking about it, did he predict everything and know something?
While his thoughts were flying...
Chen Ye followed the large group and had arrived at the entrance of the [Slave Factory].
This gray land was covered with the remains of ancient relics, various steel panels, water pipes made of fine steel, and countless fragments scattered everywhere, looking very chaotic.
A desolate atmosphere came to my face.
"Follow closely."
[Lord of the Night] waved his hand, and a ripple like a water curtain spread in all directions, wrapping up the entire team, and said:
"When you go in later, stay here and don't go out. Do you understand?"
All the witches were pale and said nothing...
They saw the inside of the factory, and occasionally a gray shadow flashed by.
"What is that..." A witch whispered palely.
However, the witches around did not respond to this sentence. They were obviously scared and had no courage to respond to this sentence. They just walked with their heads down and said nothing, for fear of alarming those gray shadows and coming to take their lives.
Originally, these gray shadows, flashing, looked scary...
The atmosphere here is even more weird than expected.
The desolate atmosphere that hits you in the face, combined with the surrounding scene, is inexplicably creepy.
Even experienced veteran players can't help but feel scared when they see this scene.
These witches don't have that much experience. They used to stay in their nests and cultivate their spiritual power. How could they have seen such a terrifying scene?
At this moment, when I came to this place and saw the gray shadow passing by, I was almost scared.
However...
These gray shadows only outlined illusory outlines, as if they were separated from this world by a layer of curtain, just residual silhouettes, unable to become substantial.
Chen Ye observed the gray shadows with the pupil of luck and found that they did not show any aura of luck, but just a gray mist, which was exactly the same as their original color.
Without the dark black of disaster and the deadly blood light, it looked ordinary and seemed to pose no threat.
Chen Ye carefully observed this group of gray shadows.
Their whereabouts, like the silhouettes of old movies, kept flashing in this open space.
The gray shadows bent over, and seemed to be holding something in their hands, waving it constantly.
It seemed that they were holding some kind of tools in their hands, and were doing some kind of ground collection work on this barren land.
These gray shadows appeared from time to time and disappeared from time to time.
"I don't know what these things are. They seem useless for the time being, but they appear near the long river of time. They can't be useless decorations. They are useless except for viewing, right?" Chen Ye muttered a few words in his heart.
However, since these gray shadows have no effect for the time being, just ignore them.
Just then.
The team went deeper and deeper and arrived at the gate of the factory.
At this time, the gate was surrounded by a three-meter-high wall, all made of black iron.
The cold wall exudes a sense of antiquity and vicissitudes, as if it has stood for thousands of years and is immortal.
Although it doesn't seem to be very high, if you want to cross it from here, it seems like there is a Great Wall between you.
It gives people the feeling that it is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
The Lord of the Night stopped here, slowly turned his head, and said to the witches behind him in a deep voice: "You will follow me to enter from the main entrance later."
"Attention!"
"It is best not to enter more than ten people at a time."
"When you hear the beeping sound and the signal light turns red, stop passing immediately and stay where you are."
"Do you understand?"
At this time, the other witches nodded in agreement.
The Lord of the Night walked to the gate.
In the center of the wall, there is an iron gate.
The iron gate seems to be made of bronze, and two green-faced evil spirits are inlaid on the door handle. The material is extraordinary and also carries the breath of time, which is shocking.
However, what is quite inconsistent is that there is a switch similar to an electronic machine near the door handle.
It is also equipped with a card slot, which seems to be used for swiping cards.
"This style... seems a bit wrong!" Chen Ye couldn't help but complain when he saw the card swiping machine.
The ancient buildings nearby and the ancient atmosphere made Chen Ye feel as if he had come to an ancient battlefield in the ancient times.
But modern technology products appeared in this ancient battlefield in a very incongruous way?
It is difficult to comment on this.
At this moment, [Lord of the Night] stood at the door and took out a crystal card with exquisite appearance from his pocket.
"Ding!"
He swiped it at the card slot, and the sound of the door opening came immediately.
Rumble! ! !
As the iron doors on both sides slowly opened, the signal light above the card slot turned green.
"You go first." [Lord of the Night] said in a deep voice.
At this time, a leader witch walked in front, and after passing through the iron door, she stood at the door, responsible for commanding and leading the way.
The remaining witches stepped in, not daring to neglect their movements.
"Don't walk so fast, those behind pay attention to the signal light, countdown..."
"Ten...nine...eight..."
"Seven...six...five..."
After hearing the countdown, the witch behind immediately dared not walk too fast and paid attention to the time.
When the count reached "zero", the witch in the front immediately stopped.
"Beep beep!!!"
The signal light on the card slot was red.
The witch in the front happened to hear the body, with fear on her face and a lot of cold sweat on her forehead, obviously feeling lingering fear.
When the signal light sounded, the harsh sound seemed to have a penetrating power from the soul.
Players who heard it would feel tinnitus involuntarily, and their blood would surge. The fear made the adrenaline soar wildly, as if they were about to suffocate at any time.
"It's OK..."
"If you go through it when the light is red, it will be unimaginable..."
"What are the rules of this damn place? Even after inserting the card slot, you have to pass it within a limited time?"
"If you don't pass it in time, will there be trouble?"
"What kind of rules are these? It's too weird..."
The witches present all felt lingering fear.
Originally.
If you can pass it by swiping the card, it should be a simple thing.
But this red light signal directly raises the danger level to the maximum.
Although the content is simple...
When the light is red, stop in time, listen carefully to the countdown of [Lord of the Night], and don't move forward when it is about to end, there should be no problem.
But if you pass it when the light is red, it will trigger the death mechanism...
This threat is like a bomb that can explode at any time.
It's not necessarily timed...
After all, this detonation time seems to have a regular pattern, but who knows if it will change?
Next, when the witch passed by again, her movements became a little more cautious.
Chen Ye narrowed his eyes. He observed this gate with the Eye of Luck. There were many ethereal undead wandering above it.
Moreover, this gate was filled with the breath of blood light, sometimes bright, sometimes dim...
"That is to say..."
"When the blood light reaches a certain level, will there be an alarm?"
"If you pass by when the light is red, it will trigger the death mechanism..."
Chen Ye's eyes moved and he quickly saw the rules.
However, the Eye of Luck can see the changes in the blood light of this gate.
Every time the countdown gets closer to "zero"...
The blood light directly above the iron gate will become more and more intense.
In addition to the passage of time...
Chen Ye also discovered a pattern: every time a witch enters, the blood light will accumulate a layer.
Not only did the blood light become more intense, but the speed of accumulation behind it also became faster.
After swiping the card, if the first witch passes through...
Then, there is a high probability that nothing will happen.
At that stage, the blood light accumulates at the slowest speed and the safety factor is the highest.
However, once more and more witches pass through, the blood light will not only accumulate and become thicker, but also increase in speed.
When there are eight witches, the speed has become very fast and unpredictable.
When the tenth witch passes through...
The speed of blood light expansion will instantly exceed the normal reaction of humans. If you pass through with normal movements, the risk factor is very high.
"No wonder the Night Lord only allows ten witches to pass at a time. There is a reason for this."
"It seems... if there are more than ten, the instability factor is too high."
"Even if it is stuck at the limit, there is a possibility of death."
"But..."
"I have the Eye of Luck. As long as I observe the density of the blood light, there will be no problem."
"This is more accurate than the countdown reported by the Night Lord."
Chen Ye secretly thanked himself for having the Eye of Luck. Therefore, his life and death are in his own hands. If there is any danger, he can stop in time.
If there is no Eye of Luck, what if the Night Lord is not so accurate when counting down, and is a few beats slower, then he is finished?
In addition, Chen Ye found that the expansion speed of the blood light is unstable, sometimes fast, sometimes slow...
If this thing suddenly comes with a crazy knife, won't his life be explained here?
This is not good!
The long queue of people entered one after another...
And Chen Ye was getting closer and closer to the iron gate...
