"How's it going?"

Facing Lin Tuo's question, Sinaishan, who was slender and serious-looking, did not answer immediately. Instead, he took two steps back and opened the car door behind him.

Lin Tuo raised his eyebrows, stepped in, and threw Hathaway in the back seat.

Mount Sinai was in the driving seat.

When the low roar sounded and the vehicle headed towards the vent not far away, Mount Sinai spoke at this time:

"Following your instructions, we organized a large number of personnel to analyze and sample the spiritual life, and found that it itself is a life form with an extremely special structure.

"There is no accurate judgment yet, but it is speculated that it may be related to people's mental power. We even suspect that it is composed of mental power and magic power..."

After a pause, Sinaishan, who was holding the steering wheel, carefully looked at Lin Tuo's expression in the rearview mirror and then said:

"The specific report is available with Ms. Hathaway and you can read it at any time.

As for the torture of it, it has begun to bear fruit. We tried to use some magic means to punish it.

At first, it was very tough, but eventually it relaxed and was willing to communicate with us, but it made a request..."

"It wants to talk to me?" Lin Tuo asked calmly.

"Yes," Mount Sinai said with a strange expression, "It claims to be the lord of the spiritual world, demands treatment that matches its status, and claims to be willing to negotiate, but it is only willing to talk to the person who defeated it, that is, you..."

"Of course, according to our judgment, it is most likely not that tough, but to be cautious, I still ask Ms. Hathaway to convey its request to you."

Lord of the spirit world?

Lin Tuo was curious, thought for a moment, and said:

"You're already here, let's meet you."

Mount Sinai was not surprised. While driving, he continued to report on the recent situation, including brother and sister Ning Li and Ning Meng, and their work these days.

Not long after, the vehicle stopped at the foot of the mountain. How many people got out of the car and crossed the cordon? All the way to the battlefield that day.

This place has been transformed into a research site. It is guarded by extraordinary people 24 hours a day, but the specific facilities are not on the surface, but underground.

When Lin Tuo followed Mount Sinai and flew straight down into the vent? After sinking for about tens of meters, the place suddenly became bright.

The most eye-catching thing is the huge energy shield east of the center of the vent.

’ It’s not a forbidden prison, it’s bigger than that.

Looking over, you can see that the interior is a platform with machines, temporary housing, and researchers walking around.

"This is the outer protective shield, which mainly serves as a warning." Mount Sinai introduced, "There are two layers inside. One layer has both defense and sound, and it blocks the view. The other layer is the forbidden cage."

As he spoke, runes appeared in Mount Sinai's palm, opening a gap in the energy shield. Lin Tuo entered the moment and suddenly felt unusually bright.

Seeing the people flying in from Mount Sinai, some people looked at him? But they quickly moved away. Not many people here knew Lin Tuo.

"This way please."

Mount Sinai, wearing a black trench coat? walked into an oval building in the center of the hall.

Passing through the corridor, there is a second layer of magic shield inside. There are only a few people here. Seeing Mount Sinai coming, they all left in tacit agreement.

Standing outside the magic shield on the second floor, you can already see the much smaller forbidden cage inside, as well as the dim one-eyed giant floating in it.

"It doesn't seem to have noticed your arrival." Lin Tuo took a few glances and said.

Mount Sinai explained: "The second floor has a one-sided view, and the outside scene cannot be seen from the inside. Do you want to enter immediately?"

"kindness."

Seeing Lin Tuo nodding, she handed over a small remote control and briefly explained how to use it:

"If it doesn't cooperate, you can use this to punish it. After entering the second floor, your conversation with it will not be transmitted."

Lin Tuo glanced at her, said nothing, took it with a smile, nodded and said:

"very good."

Mount Sinai leaned forward slightly, then retreated, and left here soon.

"Tsk tsk, I must say that I work in a government department. I have good eyesight and know what to avoid when talking to leaders..." Hathaway clicked her tongue in surprise.

Lin Tuo glanced at her and threw her to the ground:

"Get out of here and get out too."

"I don't!" Hathaway put her hands on her hips, and as soon as she said two words, she was kicked away by Lin Tuo, and she ran out of the building screaming.

Comfortable!

After exhaling, Lin Tuo stepped through the second layer of magic barrier.

The moment he entered, the one-eyed giant who was originally confused suddenly woke up in the cage!

It still maintains its original appearance, but its body is translucent and only the size of an ordinary person, exuding a weak aura.

"It's you!"

When it saw Lin Tuo, it screamed in surprise, subconsciously drifted backwards, and hit the cage. Part of the area suddenly lit up, making a roar like the collision of gold and iron.

"I heard that you want to see me?" Lin Tuo looked at the other party with a calm expression and said, "It seems that you are willing to cooperate."

"I am willing to tell the information I know," the one-eyed giant also calmed down at this time, trying his best to show the majesty of the "lord" through the barrier of the forbidden cage, "but there is a price."

"cost?"

"Yes, when you know the information you want, let me return to the spirit world."

Lin Tuo glanced at it in surprise, half-smiling but not smiling:

"Why do you think I will agree to you?"

The one-eyed giant seemed to have already prepared his words. The dim figure was floating, and a depressed eye stared at Lin Tuo:

"First of all, I am weak enough now, and you are strong enough. Even if you let me go, I won't be able to cause any harm to your world. I just want to return to the spirit world.

Secondly, since you designed to arrest me, it means that the information I know is valuable, and you will get nothing by killing me."

"That's it?" Lin Tuo asked curiously:

"If I don't agree and continue to torture you, I'm really curious how long you can last."

Hearing the word torture, the one-eyed giant's illusory body trembled. He was obviously a little scared, but he still said seriously:

"My current state is already at its weakest.

If I continue to torture, if I do it a few more times, it will affect my origin, which may lead to the loss of my own memory.

Besides, if I really can't survive, at least I still have the ability to commit suicide."

Lin Tuo was silent for a moment and said:

"But I can also pretend to promise you, first trick you into telling you the information I want, and then kill you... You should know that I can't let you go first."

"Of course I know it," the one-eyed giant seemed to be more excited after hearing this, and said: "But the value you can gain by letting me go is greater."

As it spoke, it seemed to straighten its back:

"I am the lord of the spiritual world. I know that those of you living in the material world need power from the spiritual world, and as long as you let me go, I can pay a certain ransom.

It can even help you completely repair that candle...if it's not completely damaged.

Although I don’t know what the so-called god behind you is, now that you know the existence of the spirit world, you should understand that cooperation with a lord can completely offset some dangers."

'No...I don't understand.'

Lin Tuo muttered something in his heart, and then he became more vigilant and doubtful, but his face was calm and there was no wave.

After being silent for a while, he spoke:

"Whether I cooperate or not depends on whether the information you provide satisfies me."

"certainly."

The one-eyed giant seemed to be relieved. In fact, it did not have certain expectations for this transaction, but compared to the inevitable ending, it felt that it could at least struggle.

In other words, the conversation with Lin Tuo was a gamble. The bet was on Lin Tuo's greed. As long as he was greedy for greater interests, he would have hope of survival.

Thinking of this, the one-eyed giant seemed to be calmer and said:

"So, what do you want to know from me?"

Lin Tuo thought for a moment and said:

"Then let's start with your so-called identity as a lord.

I am very curious about who you are in the spiritual world and in what state you exist.

Well, maybe I should first ask clearly, in your opinion, what is the spiritual world and what is its relationship with the material world?"

He made no attempt to cover up his "ignorance".

Not only was there no outsider here, but also because if he asked, it would be impossible to hide it.

The one-eyed giant's expression indeed changed, and he became noticeably more relaxed:

"It seems you know very little about us."
