Navigator·The fourth annular cabin

In a small, dark room, a tall woman with bandages on her arms and legs was sitting alone in a dark environment.

She didn't know how long she had been in this safe house.

This is the safe house specially built for him by Minister Ye Yun. Outside the window is a dark corridor.

There was silence outside.

I don’t know how long it has been since the last time Minister Ye and Minister He walked past the window.

She didn't know if it was an emotional problem caused by staying in this dark room for too long, but she always felt a little uneasy.

In this dark loneliness, she felt homesick.

Fortunately, according to the experience of previous ruins exploration.

There is a time limit for entering the ruins. Theoretically, as long as she waits in the ruins for three days, the ruins passage will naturally bring all the surviving people back to the real world.

She stood up and looked out the silent window.

Three days is both a long time and a short time.

You can go home soon.

Zila——

In this silent darkness, something seemed to be squirming slightly.

Navigator Core Control Room

In He Ao's sight, a figure in ragged clothes and covered in blood walked into the core control room.

It seemed like it was his first time here, and he looked at the towering metal pillars around him with some surprise.

Soon, he found He Ao sitting on the edge of the wall, covered in scars.

However, he did not come over immediately, but kept a safe distance, raised the microcomputer in his hand, wrote a sentence in front of the computer screen, and showed it to He Ao.

The sentence was written in the institute's standard codeword, with the prefixes 'leaf' and 'river'.

Decrypted, it means, ‘The landscape in my hometown is beautiful’.

After showing this sentence, he raised his head and looked at He Ao.

He Ao raised his bloody hand and slowly wrote a signature on the ground.

When the visitor saw the signature, he breathed a long sigh of relief and walked over quickly. He glanced at the dead Yin Weier on the ground, feeling a little surprised and a little surprised.

"He Ao? Did you succeed?"

"Um."

He Ao chewed the meat and nodded slightly.

As he moved, the wound was torn again and bright red blood flowed out.

"Sir, your injury needs treatment," A02's voice sounded again, "The purification circle in this hall was built for me. You can destroy the circle and take away the authority key, and I will not be eroded by pollution."

"What do we do next?"

Hearing these words, Ye Yun glanced at the broken microcomputer and looked at He Ao.

"My injury is okay."

He Ao reached out and touched the bone sword on the ground, seeming to be trying to hold the bone sword to prop himself up.

At this time, Ye Yun hurriedly came over. His right hand supported He Ao's arm stretching towards the bone sword with a little force, while his left hand stretched out his hand, as if to support He Ao's other hand.

And just when his left hand passed He Ao's chest, a dagger suddenly popped out of his hand and probed into He Ao's heart.

puff--

The dagger just stopped in the air, and his wrist was tightly pinched by He Ao, unable to move forward even half a minute.

"Did you guess it?"

Ye Yun raised his head and looked at He Ao.

At the same time, he suddenly released He Ao's right hand, a new dagger popped out of his hand, and stabbed forward.

Go straight to Ho O's throat.

This time, He Ao raised his left hand, with the palm of his hand pointing straight up. He grabbed his wrist with the back of his hand, and violently pushed it outward. While pushing his wrist away, he switched to grabbing, and wanted to clamp his wrist again.

hand.

boom--

At this moment, a strong wind carrying severe pollution erupted from the center of the entire hall, disturbing He Ao's concentration.

Gray lines appeared on Ye Yun's cheeks, and then he used force and pulled back his right hand, before He Ao's palm could grasp his right hand, and withdrew his right hand.

He wanted to step back and get out of the way, but his other hand was firmly clamped by He Ao.

At this time, he did not hesitate. He swung his sword and cut off the left hand held by He Ao. Then he quickly rolled backwards, widened the distance from He Ao, and quickly walked to the gate.

"It seems that you are not soft on yourself,"

He Ao threw away the clamped arm, picked up the mechanical sword and bone sword on the ground, dragged his body's injuries, staggered forward, he looked at 'Ye Yun', "I should call you 'Ye Yun'

Yun', or should I call you Mr. David of World Tree?"

"Flesh and blood are nothing but materials that will only age,"

'David' stepped back and stood in front of the large hole in the gate that was broken by Yin Weier. At this moment, a 'skin' similar to 'paper scraps' began to appear on his face and clothes.

Then, this layer of skin peeled off like catkins, revealing a young man wearing indirect sportswear and with brown-blond hair. "It seems you have more information than I expected."

Clumps of bulging steel emerged from behind David and connected to his severed half arm covered in blood.

Soon, a new steel arm was restored. He looked at He Ao, "So how did you discover my identity?"

"It's not that difficult,"

He Ao staggered to the side of the dodecahedron in the middle. He glanced at the dodecahedron crystal. The powerful pollution that had just interfered with his actions erupted from this crystal.

But he didn't go further, but just stood there, raised his head, and looked at David,

"Your plan is perfect. In order to avoid being seen by others in your disguise, you chose to enter the spacecraft alone.

"But walking alone will inevitably arouse suspicion, so you let a member of the institute appear alone near you. After you complete the disguise, you immediately run over to rescue her, so that you can easily gain her trust, and

She can also be your 'evidence' to prove your identity.

"I think that when you tried to pretend to be Ye Yun, you should have collected information about Ye Yun in detail and analyzed Ye Yun's character.

"These 'homework' have become an important part of your disguise."

“Very good analysis,“

David looked at He Ao with a smile, and a violent mechanical trembling sound came from behind him, "But all the speculations you are making now are based on the premise that I am a pretender, so,"

He looked at He Ao, "How did you identify me?"

"Do you still remember that Ye Yun has a sister who calls herself a fan of mine?"

Ho looked at David.

"Ye Yun dotes on his sister, what's wrong with my behavior?"

David frowned slightly.

"No, your performance was perfect. You showed Ye Yun's love, care and concern for his sister so vividly. Your emotions and acting skills are very good,"

He Ao smiled and glanced at the signature he had just written behind him, "Ye Yun once asked me for my signature for his sister."

Hearing this answer, David was stunned. He reacted instantly and laughed dumbly and said,

"I thought it was unlikely that you would talk about anything unrelated to work during the short one or two hours of contact. I was being smart. In order to highlight the authenticity of Ye Yun's identity, I even talked about his sister."

Having said this, he paused and said thoughtfully, "So you became suspicious of me, and then used your signature as a secret code to test me when I asked for a secret code?"

At this moment, he finally understood the key. "It turns out that you started to doubt me when I mentioned 'sister'. I thought I was pretending well. I have to say, He Ao, you are more wary than me."

It was much heavier than I imagined.”

"You are also very good at taking advantage of people's wariness, aren't you? You suddenly agreed with me to use a code word, wasn't it just for that moment?"

He Ao looked at him with a smile, "When we meet again after separation, and after identity verification, people's wariness can easily relax. This is the best time for a sneak attack."

In fact, when 'Ye Yun' talked about his sister, it did not arouse He Ao's suspicion.

What ultimately made He Ao more suspicious of 'Ye Yun' was that after entering the core area, the pollution he encountered was very low.

In the outer annular cabin, the pollution is low, which can be said to be good luck.

But after entering the core axis, the pollution is still low, which is a bit strange.

After all, He Ao saw the "fog" that almost enveloped the entire central axis from the huge picture window.

The pollution intensity in the core area enveloped by the mist containing the footprints of the gods was actually far less than that of the annular cabin outside.

It seemed as if the pollution was deliberately dispersed, and He and Ao made way for them to easily reach the core area.

These reductions in pollution all happened after meeting ‘Ye Yun’.

Moreover, the fact that 'Ye Yun' suddenly wanted to set up a secret code for communication was actually a bit abrupt, reasonable, but abrupt.

In addition, He Ao was deceived by the B-level monster the last time he entered the ruins, so his vigilance was naturally much higher this time.

Under the influence of various factors, He Ao chose to write his signature on 'Ye Yun' for further testing.

Not long after the exchange of 'secret codes', 'Ye Yun' got separated from He Ao due to the attack of the huge mechanical monster.
