I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 221 220. Calm, calm, regretful

"The great will...what is that? Is it a saint?"

"[Miss Xie Beileda] has arrived at the reserved location and is searching for enemies, but has not found them yet..."

"If we were to face such an incorporeal enemy, would [Miss Xie Beileda]'s mental pollution still be of use?"

"Huh? The door to the central control room...is locked by the team leader?"

Amidst the noise among the scholars, the team leader silently walked up to everyone, then bowed slightly towards them, and said loudly:

"Everyone, I am very happy to meet and work with you. Although the final outcome is regrettable, I still stubbornly believe that our ideas are correct, our efforts are meaningful, and our results can benefit mankind. Opening up a new future..."

"It's just...human beings are still too small after all..."

After that, she straightened the monocle on her face and straightened her slightly messy clothes, hoping to make herself more presentable.

But the scholars present were confused and couldn't understand what she wanted to express.

At this time, the picture on the surveillance projection changed again. Five [Miss Xie Beileda] invaded the room together, discovered the invisible enemy, and rushed toward him.

The next second, everyone present heard a slightly sullen announcement:

"■■■■■■■■■■"

Those were words that they could not understand for the time being, as if they came from some ancient, mysterious, and noble existence.

It was at this moment that I was still wondering why the enemy couldn't see him and why the monitoring rituals didn't work correctly.

That's not because the enemy is incorporeal.

But because He cannot be looked at.

Not to be touched, not to be understood.

Nor can it be blasphemed.

So in the next second, the five [Miss Xie Beileida] on the surveillance projection, which were powerful enough to compete with the seventh or even eighth level, disappeared in an instant, as if they had never existed.

All the scholars present also closed their eyes in tacit agreement, waiting for the ending to come.

There was no crying, no wailing, not even pain.

There is no despair, no regret, and I even feel a little regretful.

I regret not being able to look up.

I regret not being able to pay my respects.

So just like that, in the calmness and silence, their figures, like the five [Miss Xie Beileda], quietly disappeared without a trace.

........................

About a few hours later, with the sound of gears operating, the door to the central control room was opened from the outside.

Then, a few fluorescent sticks were thrown in, allowing a few touches of faint green fluorescence to barely dispel the darkness inside.

It could be seen that everything was peaceful inside, and all the instruments and instruments were quiet and motionless, as if they were broken.

There wasn't even a soul in sight, as if no one had come in at all.

"I thought it would be a field full of corpses, but it turned out to be silent? Is this good news?"

"No, this just shows that the situation is more serious than we expected. They all disappeared before even issuing a warning. Could it be that they have provoked some kind of terrifying existence?"

"Then... do you want to go in and try?"

"Or...forget it? I haven't lived enough yet. Even standing at the door, I can feel the smell of mental pollution, but it seems to be restrained by some kind of force and does not escape outwards."

Outside the door were five people dressed as investigators. They were all dressed in unique and individual styles. The most eye-catching one was wearing a bright red suit, which made him look extra flashy.

But on the chest, they uniformly wear a colorful ball-shaped badge, which looks gaudy and can be used directly as a clown's prop.

But the power fluctuations emanating from them all have at least six levels of intensity, and they also have the spiritual aftertaste of various different systems.

They were the backup that the previous scholars had expected.

But without being able to use inspiration at will, nothing could be seen with just the light from the fluorescent stick, so one of the investigators took the initiative to suggest:

"Let me take a look."

"Be careful."

The investigator nodded, leaned against the wall on one side, closed his eyes, stretched out two fingers, and tapped his eyelids lightly.

Then he activated his power again and moved two fingers closer to the door of the central control room. It looked as if he had temporarily taken off his own eyes to peek inside.

But after only a second, he let out a muffled groan and quickly retracted his fingers. Then his whole body began to convulse and tremble, and his face became as pale as a dead person, as if he had touched something extremely terrifying.

The other two investigators on the side quickly pulled him to the back away from the door, and another one said loudly:

"In the name of veto!"

The other person quickly poured a tube of light blue potion into his mouth.

About two minutes later...     "Cough cough cough!!!"

The bold investigator from before let out a violent cough, and then while gasping for air, he suddenly sat up from the ground like a corpse, opened his blood-red eyes, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Wine...wine..."

Immediately, two people took out the wine bottles and handed them to him.

After a whole bottle of liquor was consumed, the color on his face gradually returned, and then he quickly pointed to the door of the central control room and said intermittently:

"Hurry... close the door, there is something inside... don't use your hands..."

The remaining investigators quickly activated their respective abilities, closed the door again from a distance, and then blocked it with the power of the [veto] system, as if a seal was attached.

After dealing with all of this, the bold investigator finally recovered. He took a deep breath and whispered:

"In this way, there will be no problem for the time being. The rest...just leave it to time to kill it slowly."

"Man, are you okay? What did you just see?"

Someone next to me asked quickly.

"end."

replied the bold investigator in a low voice.

"Uh?"

"Desolation, dead silence, gray sky, scarlet moon, spiral tower, such pictures flashed before my eyes. I couldn't understand, couldn't look directly, couldn't touch... I don't know how to describe it, it's just subconscious The word 'doomsday' comes to mind."

The bold investigator whispered, then stretched out his hand to rub his eyes vigorously, and felt a sticky feeling between his fingers.

When he took his hand off and looked at it, there was blood and tears between his fingers.

His eyes felt a burning pain, as if they had been gouged out, so he had to close his eyes again, and then said with a slightly thankful tone:

"I didn't expect that I was still alive and not crazy? Didn't I suffer from mental pollution?"

Someone next to me immediately replied:

"No, when you say such things, you are probably crazy...but it shouldn't be too serious. After you get out, I will do a mental assessment for you."

The bold investigator nodded helplessly, leaned against the wall, and entered a state of meditation with his eyes closed.

The remaining four people continued to seal off the scene, began to arrange rituals, and continued to discuss:

"Then what should we do with 0-266?"

"How else to deal with it? Admit that the plan failed, admit that she was completely out of control... No, should it be called awakening?"

"Then...who will be responsible? And how should we explain it to the superiors?"

"If you can ask this question, it means you haven't realized what 0-266 is and why the number starts with '0'."

"This... I seem to understand. It seems that there is really no need to report or explain to anyone."

"It's a pity that this project team, they are all excellent scholars, and have a great consciousness of sacrificing for the future of mankind, but in the end they disappeared so meaninglessly, with no value at all..."

"Yeah, what's wrong with them?"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy. Everyone kept quiet and continued the process at hand, until someone smiled and spoke again:

"In fact, there is no need to be sentimental. Their sacrifices may not be worthless. At least our City of Joy can continue to continue and prosper."

"Even if it's just temporary?"

"Even if this is only temporary, who told us humans are so insignificant?

What's more, [Miss Xie Beileida] and [Mrs. Heiweima] have achieved results for the time being, right? And it can be quickly applied in the process of large-scale development. "

"Hurry up and work. At present, we can only carry out some temporary blockades. We will have to find some people to carry out complete sealing later. I am afraid that we will not be able to get close to this place for a long time."

The only investigator who was not working was talking with his eyes closed. Then he suddenly thought of something and added:

"Oh, by the way, remember to bow and leave later to show enough respect."

Several other investigators suddenly swallowed and their expressions became extremely serious.

After they completed the temporary work at hand, they helped the injured person, and while maintaining humility and awe, they held their breath and backed away slowly.

It wasn't until we were far away from the central control room that we could straighten up again and continue the discussion:

"Has something extraordinary happened?"

"I'm not sure, and I haven't seen it. I should have been here, but left again. Otherwise, I'm afraid you wouldn't talk to me like this... But fortunately, no matter what it is, you and I don't need to be responsible and bear it. .

In short...no matter what it is, it is difficult for us to understand and reach. "

"What about 0-266? Will she still stand on our side? After all, I have heard about some of the methods of this project team, especially the team leader who is known for his ruthlessness..."

"That's not what we should care about. Since you have chosen to come to our city of joy, you have to learn our way of life - don't think too much, don't ask too many questions, enjoy the moment, and have fun in the moment, so let's go drink together. Just a cup."
