Chapter 212 The whole city is evacuated(1/2)
This meeting lasted for a long time and mainly involved many detailed arrangements.
When Lin Tuo released the maintenance of the illusion space and woke up from the sofa in the old house on the old street, he saw Hathaway who had escaped from the "temple" next to him, looking at him curiously:
"So you're going to catch it?"
In the memory just now, Hathaway also followed, but Lin Tuo deliberately used his illusion ability to obscure her presence. She remained silent, but she also listened to the entire meeting conversation.
"It may not be possible to succeed. If it fails, you can only try to kill it." Lin Tuo said calmly.
"That forbidden cage... So you had this idea two days ago, right?" Hathaway said suddenly, and then she understood Lin Tuo's previous intention of familiarizing himself with the actions of the entire city.
Lin Tuo didn't say anything, which was like acquiescence.
He did have a plan in advance.
"Forbidden Cage"... This was a "magic circle" that scholars in the northern and southern continents were already studying before the Sanctuary Era, but it was still in its infancy at the time.
Prototype is a special spell that can create an etheric vacuum zone.
Later, because of the fear and vigilance of the "disaster of strange objects" and the earlier history of pollution of the Holy City, some magicians and scholars put forward the original idea of "forbidden cage".
In the magic research system of this world, ether, or the existence of magic power itself, is the medium connecting the "material world" and the "spiritual world".
So conversely, if an area is in an "etheric vacuum", its connection with the spiritual world will also be interrupted...
Based on this idea, some early scholars imagined that a large-scale spell or weapon could be created to deal with crises that may arise again in the future.
After all, any spell needs to be based on the consumption of ether. If the "enemy" can be confined in a pure realm without ether and disconnected from the spiritual world, the effect of a cage can theoretically be achieved.
However, this logic sounds simple but is extremely difficult to implement.
In addition, the main development direction of human society in recent years is not here.
Therefore, this idea is only usable now. On the day he entered this place, Lin Tuo checked the relevant reports through Hathaway... along with other information.
However, the information obtained is not complete. Obviously, even in this era when the Magic Network connects the entire world, some information has not been entered into the network, but has been saved offline.
Fortunately, the answers given by several high-level extraordinary people at the meeting satisfied him, so he finalized the plan.
The next step is to create a trap and lure Ning Li there...and these preparations will take a few days at the earliest.
"Okay, you don't need to think about these things. In the next few days, you only need to help monitor the Ning family brothers and sisters. You don't need to do anything else." Lin Tuo said.
Hathaway thought for a while: "Then are we still filming our little video?"
"..." Lin Tuo was silent for a moment and said, "Shoot? Why not shoot."
…
…
The next few days? Lin Tuo's life became extremely regular.
During the day, he followed his virtual identity and entered the high school of Starry Sky Academy as a psychotherapy teacher. He lived like an ordinary person, adapted and started working.
Meetings are held regularly at night. Inquiring about the progress of the arrangement, talking to Huaxi about the little things that happened in school? Reviewing the videos compiled by Hathaway? Posting them on the spiritual network.
It was a bit awkward at first, but after a few days, I became more and more accustomed to this identity... But even if I tried to imitate the teacher's identity deliberately, the meridians in my body did not light up again.
Lin Tuo is not too surprised by this. Even if this is really in line with "refining the heart in the world of mortals", the time is too short. If a few days of effort are enough to light up some meridians, then the realm after the non-human realm will be too short.
cheap.
The Internet outside the black box is very lively.
People were surprised to find that the short films in the "Everyday" series were updated quite diligently, and the protagonists were always the alien from another world whose true appearance could not be seen, and the little girl whose face was also blurred? There is no plot at all, and each short film is extremely boring.
It fits the two words "everyday life".
Some people started to feel bored after watching the second part, while others regarded it as entertainment to kill time after get off work every day. As for the government, they wanted to find a way to record every frame and analyze it to find out the valuable information. Report? And in fact? They did see something.
It's as if something is brewing in the peaceful city.
…
For most residents of Four Seasons City, this period of time is not much different from the past.
Only some people noticed some changes.
For example, the city hall has been extremely busy recently, and there are often strange vehicles coming in and out. For example, a construction team appeared around the long-abandoned ventilation shaft No. 13 on the outskirts of the city. It is said that some municipal projects are being carried out. For example, the weather has not been good recently.
It is sunny and cloudy at times, and the indoor Magic Network signal is not very stable. The TV station said that this year's open sea monsoon caused some climate effects.
It always makes people feel like a storm is coming.
"Bring an umbrella, it might rain today, it's so cloudy."
It's another early morning.
In the old street, in a simple room, Ning Li was standing in the kitchen putting away the dishes and chopsticks, looking at his sister who was walking to the door, carrying a schoolbag, and shouted.
"Hua Xi is taking it with him. We just need to support each other."
Ning Meng opened the door and waved outside, then put on her shoes and ran out.
Ning Li looked through the window and saw her sister and the girl standing at the gate of the courtyard holding a big black umbrella huddled together. They were talking as they walked along the street towards the school.
A bit of helplessness appeared on his face, and he shook his head. Ningli closed the cupboard door, then walked to the living room and looked at the city outside the glass through two old sofas.
The sky was gloomy and the wind was blowing, causing the willow branches on both sides of the old street to sway like a girl's flying hair.
"The wind is a bit strong, I should wear a raincoat." Ning Li muttered something and couldn't help but think.
Then I was stunned for a while, a little distracted.
I don't know why, but I always feel uneasy, as if something is about to happen.
After a moment, he remembered something and glanced at the wall clock. He made a sound, picked up his schoolbag, hurriedly locked the door of the room and courtyard, and trotted towards the direction of Starry Sky Academy.
Time is a bit tight.
The young man running under the dark sky did not notice that behind him, in the house next door, a gaze was staring at his back through the cold wind.
"He's gone." Hathaway, who was placed on the coffee table, glanced at Lin Tuo, who was standing in front of the window, staring silently out of the window, and said.
The latter withdrew his gaze: "I saw it."
"That……"
Lin Tuo picked up a coat from the coat rack, put it on, then picked up the crystal ball and pushed out the door without locking it. The cold wind blew around his collar, and the air was damp and cold, like a precursor to wind and rain.
There were not many people walking on the street and they were walking in a hurry. Looking at the people who knew nothing about what was about to happen, Lin Tuo raised his head and looked at a certain mountain outside the city. He silently activated the "invisibility spell" and walked towards the academy.
Go.
At the same time, he sighed softly and said:
"Notify us and act as planned."
…
The magic network covering the whole city fluctuated slightly, and in the next second, the communicators in the hands of the teams hidden throughout the Four Seasons City and ready to go lit up almost at the same time.
"After receiving the order, start clearing the area."
"Start clearing the place."
"Clear the place."
Voices sounded from different corners, and then, around Starry Sky Academy, many figures suddenly emerged from the darkness of the streets.
Some of them pushed open the door and walked out of the house.
Some walked out of the car door.
Some lifted the magic barrier and emerged from the dark alley.
The only thing they have in common is that they all wear the standard windbreakers that symbolize the government's extraordinary department... The black clothes of Hunter complement the cold sky.
Pedestrians on the street were so shocked that they turned to look sideways, and then almost instinctively moved around to avoid it. Needless to say, every southern mainlander has been exposed to relevant education since childhood.
Know what it means to witness extraordinary beings, especially the large number of extraordinary beings from the government.
Know more clearly what to do.
This is a tacit understanding that the entire society has formed over many years.
"This place involves an extraordinary event. Unrelated persons should evacuate to the north of the city!" Sure enough, the next second, pedestrians on both sides of the street heard stern words.
Those words did not come from the mouths of the black windbreakers, but came from unknown sources. They were vibrated by magic power and directly affected everyone's ears.
extraordinary!
On the street, people were stunned at first, and then nervously followed the orders and hid.
In this era of extraordinary power, many vicious cases of extraordinary beings causing trouble occur every year, and almost every time they affect innocent people.
But even after searching through his memory, the citizens of Four Seasons City have never seen a time when the government launched such a large-scale battle.
"What happened? Is there an intermediate-level supernatural being causing trouble?"
Some people were confused, but they didn’t have time to think about it, so they just stayed away as much as possible.
