Endless Silver Machine

Aika and Luoluo were transferred to a strange place by a strange teleportation magic circle.

"Brother, is this really a maze of competition?"

"I have no way of judging."

The two were teleported to a long corridor with no doors or windows around them and only cold lights above their heads.

The pendant-type magic tool distributed by Shimozuki Academy should send the holder back to the central square, but this place does not look like the scenery of the central square.

"Is that magic tool left behind by that girl?"

"The three of us and her here can only think so."

After being transferred here, the two did not move around at will.

The scenes within the barrier are not limited to natural scenery, so it is still possible that it is a maze for the competition.

Wei Xi is not around, and neither Aika nor Luo Luo has the ability to analyze the barrier and can only act based on their own judgment.

After waiting for a while and no one else came, the two began to move down the corridor.

"How long has the game been going on?"

"Please wait a moment..." Luoluo looked at the PDA in question, "It's been two hours."

"Is the PDA still unable to communicate?"

"Yes……"

Luoluo shook his head regretfully.

"Ling and Wei Xi are staying over there, and now there's no way to contact them... Things have become troublesome."

There are some closed rooms along the way, and locks are set on the doors to allow specific magic ripples to pass through. Both Aika and Luoluo tried it, but it had no effect at all.

"The scene is a closed place, and there are so many side roads..."

Aika was alert to her surroundings as she walked. If robots like those in small towns appear again, there will be no place to hide in such a place.

"Brother, look over there."

Luoluo's voice reminded the tense Aika.

"Elevator?"

In the direction of Luoluo's finger, there was indeed an elevator parked.

The two approached the elevator cautiously, but luckily nothing suddenly ran out.

"It doesn't look like a trap."

Aika breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother, this lift can only go below."

There is only one button on the console, one-way access.

"There are no roads around, so we can only move forward by taking this one."

Aika asked Luoluo's choice with her eyes.

"Then go down there, I won't leave my brother."

"To be honest, even I feel that this place is particularly eerie. Aren't you the most afraid of this kind of atmosphere?"

"I'm very scared now."

"You really can't tell on the surface, you've grown up."

"Does my brother still want me to hold you here and refuse to let go?"

"If that really happens, I can accept it with a smile."

"I don't want...otherwise I will be laughed at by them again when I go back."

"they?"

"...It's just the classmates in the class..."

"Did they say anything to you?"

"...Brother doesn't need to know, this is a secret between girls."

Every time Luoluo used this kind of reason, it was probably something she didn't want to say.

Although Aika became more and more curious, he would not deliberately invade his sister's privacy.

Press the button to go down, and the elevator comes into operation.

…………

"If you encounter danger here, just use that magic tool."

During the descent, Aika suddenly said this to Lolo.

"If you use it, it's an automatic forfeit."

"At least it's better than getting you hurt."

"Because Sister Ling and Xiao Xi are not here, my brother wants to take the responsibility for my failure, right?"

"..."

"Because I am my brother's sister, so in everyone's eyes, this behavior is normal, right?"

"Luoluo, listen to me..."

"Because I don't have the power like Sister Ling and Xiao Xi, so the failure is all my brother's fault, right?"

"Listen to me first!"

Aika's hands firmly grasped Luo Luo's weak shoulders, and Luo Luo's slightly painful expression made him sober up a little.

"Don't always think that what I do is for your benefit. I do it for myself!"

"Brother is lying again."

"It doesn't matter what you think. I don't want to see you get hurt, so I'm going to drive you back. Do you have to say this to accept it?"

Aika grabbed Luoluo's wrist. He could crush the magic tool tied to his wrist with just a move of his fingers.

"If my brother did that, I might really hate him."

Luoluo did not resist Aika's rough behavior, and only responded with indifferent words.

"I said I did this for myself."

"Obviously I don't have to have this attitude, but I will listen to my brother..." Luoluo gently pulled away the wrist held by Aika, showing a slightly lonely smile, "I'm sorry, I am too willful."

"no……"

The elevator was about to reach the bottom floor, but the regret in Aika's heart surged.

"I won't worry about my brother anymore by saying things like that."

Luoluo hugged Aika in this small space and did not let go of his body until the elevator stopped.

"If I'm in danger, I'll run away."

"Um."

"Brother is not allowed to stay either."

"Yes, I promise you."

…………

There is only one straight corridor extending from the elevator, and at the end is a huge iron door that is as high as the ceiling.

"If this is still a maze, it should be the end."

There were no devices that looked like opening doors on the surrounding walls, and they still exuded a cold metallic sheen.

Luoluo has been feeling uncomfortable since arriving here, and her premonitions have always been accurate.

"Brother, it might be really dangerous here."

"Even I feel like this." Aika let go of his hand, and the two guns shattered before hitting the ground, "Mechanical Alchemy-Vulcan Cannon Combination."

The heavy firearm formed by six barrels is reassembled.

"It seems like this is the only way to open the door."

The huge iron door seemed unbreakable, but under the fierce firepower of the "Fire Eyes", a large hole was still easily opened.

"Don't stay too far away from me."

"I know."

Luoluo got closer to Aika and followed him through the broken iron gate.

In the space behind the iron door, the surroundings and the top of the head were filled with darkness, which seemed to be endless.

A huge machine shining like platinum stood quietly in this spacious space.

Aika opened her mouth, but nothing came out.

The air here seems to have weight, and breathing becomes difficult.

"Brother, get out of here quickly."

Luoluo frowned in disgust, and she tugged on Aika's clothes to urge him.

"But, go that way"

Except for the iron gate behind him and the ground beneath his feet, everything else was the same color.

"I have no idea……"

Luoluo took a few steps in a daze, not noticing that he had left Aika's side.

"Why does the air here..."

He could only see the rough outline of the huge machine in the distance.

Contrary to his slightly heavy brain, the Vulcan cannon combination in his hand became lighter.

"The magic power of magic equipment..."

The core of the magic machine is the molecular power furnace. If magic machines were compared to humans, the molecular power furnace would be the lungs.

The lungs draw oxygen from the air, and the molecular power furnace draws magic from the air.

Being able to naturally fill the magic weapon "Eye of Fiery Flame" with magic power, there must be magic power beyond imagination in the air.

In such an environment, the human body will have a reaction of being poisoned by inhaling pure oxygen, which is the source of dizziness.

If you say so...

"Lolo!"

He realized the important point and suddenly turned his head but could not see Luo Luo behind him.

Looking around, he found the figure not far away.

Hearing Aika's anxious shouts, Luoluo turned around in confusion.

"elder brother?"

"Come back quickly! That machine..."

When the magic machinery is activated, it will release one ten thousandth of the magic power of its molecular power furnace. This is a problem that modern magic machinery cannot solve.

There is so much magic in the air here that Aika can only think of one possibility.

While conveying this information to Luo Luo, he used the corner of his eye to pay attention to the huge machine that could only see its outline.

At this moment, what he was worried about happened.

The huge machine stretched upward into the dark part, and there was a little flash of red light.

Aika instantly understood the identity of the red dot.

Professor Cocona has taught Aika that moving objects are generally prioritized in the design of magical mechanical attacks.

The only person moving in this space now is her.

…………

Ling and Brad lost consciousness together and were carried away by the medical team.

Teacher Letika ran anxiously to Wei Xi who was about to cry.

"Where are classmates Aika and Luoluo? Didn't they come back with you?"

This was exactly the question Wei Xi wanted to ask, and Teacher Letika spoke first.

"Letika, calm down." Another instructor Wei Xi didn't know pulled Lettika back. "It seems like she doesn't know either."

"how come……"

Instructor Letika's legs weakened and she collapsed on the ground.

"What happened to Brother Aika and Luoluo..."

Wei Xi knew from the words of the two mentors that they had indeed not come back.

"The barrier you are in was invaded by a stranger... It should be said that a stranger mixed in with the students and participated in the competition."

"Wilber, now is not the time to explain this kind of problem!"

"You should calm down! Letika, Ling is also my student, and I will also be responsible for this group!"

Wilber's scolding left Letika speechless for a moment, and she faced Wei Xi again and continued to explain.

"The other party acted alone, and the surveillance was randomly adjusted. When we didn't notice, she accurately positioned the teleportation magic circle to the barrier where you are."

"I didn't find..."

"You did not construct the magic formula of the enchantment. Of course you will not find it, so there is no need to blame yourself." Instructor Wilber comforted Wei Xi, "Even your instructor in the enchantment department did not notice this abnormality."

"Teacher Wilber, those students are awake."

"Okay, I'll go over right away." Wilber stood up from in front of Wei Xi, "Letika, I'll leave the rest of the explanation to you."

She followed the students who came to inform and hurried to other places.

"What Instructor Wilber said is true. When we found out, she had already entered your barrier. We originally planned to subdue her in the barrier, but Aika and Luoluo misunderstood our actions. Then , the magic reaction of the two of them disappeared."

He may have been sent to other places outside the barrier by teleportation magic, so his life should not be in danger. Teacher Letika finally added this.

"Where is that person..."

"After activating the two pedestal devices, I used teleportation magic to escape."

"The remaining two pedestal devices were not activated by Brother Aika and Luoluo..."

Wei Xi suddenly noticed the light coming from the teleportation magic circle in the center of the venue.

The game is over and all the barriers have been closed, so the person being teleported back now is...

Wei Xi ran towards the place where the light emitted without thinking.

Passing through the crowded students, she pushed aside those who stood in her way.

"Brother Aika...Lolo..."

Now she just wants to see those two people.

Wei Xi's uncharacteristic behavior caused the students present to make way for her.

They did come back, but Wei Xi's excitement suddenly cooled down.

Did you pray too late?

The scarlet color spreading on the ground stimulated every fragile nerve of Wei Xi.

Luoluo lay on Aika's body, her white skin, long sky-blue hair and spotless uniform all stained with colors that did not belong to her.

Wei Xi took a staggering step forward, and the adults from the medical team surrounded the two people who had fallen on the ground.

It wasn't until Aika and Luoluo were lifted out of her sight that Wei Xi knelt down weakly on the ground.

The bright red liquid that had lost its temperature spread along her calves, onto the white knee-high socks, and over the long white hair scattered on the ground.

The lowered hands touched the unfamiliar sticky feeling, but at this time, Wei Xi could no longer feel anything.
