It is raining in the city.
A thin, sickly man, barefoot and weak, left a house.
His name is Li Xiang.
Former member of the Society of Nine.
Improver of "glass windows".
He is a true genius.
The first few members of the Nine escaped from S Nest and joined T Company. They gathered together to invent and create together.
Their original intention was simply to "research for the sake of research" and they did not want to put the research into real applications, because...
The [identity tag] was invented by one of them. This thing was originally invented by that person to be hung on children to prevent them from getting lost and allow them to contact their parents. It is an invention of family affection.
However, the people at T Company used this thing in a completely different style... They used it to monitor the working hours of all workers, forcing them to work enough hours every day. And what's even more tragic is that even though he is the inventor, he also has to wear it and work painfully in the factory.
This is the wing.
For Yi, the original intention has long lost its meaning.
Because the original intention of establishing many "wings" is... good.
Since they can even forget such things, what's the big deal if they deviate from the application of a small invention?
And right after that, Lingzhi, the most core member of the Nine-member Society, invented the [Glass Window].
The glass window is an invention that can observe other parallel worlds and even communicate with the beings in other parallel worlds. It is a technology invented by the "Spirit" eldest brother in the Nine-Man Society.
The Nine will be monitored, arrested, and threatened by T Company because the "Glass Window" technology is coveted by T Company. Dong Bai, a member of the same organization, directly blew up the secret base in order to protect the Nine's invention from being used for "abnormal" things.
And after that, Li Xiang also lost his "home".
He aimlessly followed Qiu Fu, who was also a member of the Nine-Man Society, to the N Nest. Then, in the N Nest, he was locked in a closed room and asked to continue studying the "glass window" alone.
Li Xiang had no purpose and no dreams. He felt that Qiu Fu only wanted to use him. There seemed to be no difference between N Company and T Company.
He was locked in a room and couldn't go anywhere, but just a few days ago, the "him" in the mirror gave him a suggestion.
Stop taking the medicine and leave here. Or, take a lot of N company's medicine and fall into a deep sleep.
He can choose his own behavior.
When Li Xiang left the closed room barefoot, Qiu Fu, wearing red round-frame sunglasses, changed his tone and said with a sneer:
"My foolish friend, have you decided to leave here?"
The suitcase did not answer him.
Those words were not meant to persuade him to stay, but were just meant to ridicule him...
"Even if there's no place to go back to, why do you have to use that staggering body?"
"No matter where you are, do you think that is your real home?"
"Have fun as you like."
"Then
Come back at dusk."
Li Xiang left, his last friend. He left the laboratory alone and came to the road of N Nest.
this day.
The rain was falling lightly.
Li Xiang didn't know what to do.
His "home" is gone, and the things he loved are gone.
What else can he do?
Find a company, continue to be an architect, and do some research and invent some gadgets on your own?
Do not--
Without the Society of Nine, what is the point of invention?
To everyone in the Nine-Man Society, the Nine-Man Society has different meanings.
For Qiu Fu, the Nine-Man Society might be his chance to climb the social ladder; for Dong Bai, the Nine-Man Society is a place where he can do his research without worrying about money.
But for Li Xiang, the Nine Club is his home.
No matter whether the family is quarreling or harmonious, as long as the home is still there, nothing else matters, because it is always like this between family members.
but--
The nine people will fall apart, which means that the family is gone.
Having lost his home, he didn't know what the meaning of life was. He also didn't know what to do after leaving the laboratory.
Maybe, I should change my mood and be the one to finish things?
Maybe, I can also join other friends in the Nine Society?
Another option is to just join a wing. With his talent, I believe there will be a wing willing to accept him.
In short, everything is fine. It’s not that he doesn’t want to be restricted in his freedom now, he just simply wants to leave the cage.
He wandered aimlessly in the N nest, because he couldn't find anything to do. In addition, he was weak and sick, and the drizzle was cold. Finally, he had to sit down under a small awning.
What is the most painful thing for a person?
Li Xiang didn't know, he only knew that he had no ideals now. His future seemed to be not ideal either.
Perhaps he is in the most painful time now.
He wanted to imagine something for himself, but no matter what, he couldn't "make a decision" for himself.
He needed an excuse, a reason, a... starting point.
Just at this time.
There seemed to be noisy screams in the rain.
"That, that direction!"
"No, no, again?"
"What the hell is L-Nest doing?!"
He looked up.
He thought he would see some horrific scene, because such things were everywhere in the city. If a monster really made a decision for him when he was at a loss, he would calmly choose to accept it.
but--
He was wrong.
When he raised his head and looked in that direction, what caught his eyes was a column of light rising into the sky.
It was not a bright white beam of light; on the contrary, it was so beautiful and gorgeous.
The beam of light shot up into the sky and radiated outwards, beautiful and dreamy, but without any effect on people.
There were no terrible headaches, no mental damage, no physical mutations, and no panic around.
That is... just a simple, beautiful rainbow light.
"Ah..." He reached out, instinctively wanting to touch that pure beauty.
The beauty of pure light without any impurities.
Li Xiang thought that something had made the decision for him.
L nest?
Chapter 209 Landmarks and Threats
L Nest, the duel city.
Under the huge Nephilim ice sculpture, in addition to the staff who were temporarily assigned here and the finishing people who were urgently commissioned, there were also many people from other departments.
The short-haired beauty Faust looked at the huge ice sculpture and gently pushed her glasses.
"Someone has been here."
"Ah? Oh, that should be the case, haha. After all, this thing is so big, there must be some people who are interested in it, right?" Gregor was still thinking about why he followed here.
He didn't know why he was following the Link Company. When he came to his senses, he had already been dragged over by Hong Lu.
"Of course not those people." Faust turned around and looked at the people behind him who were trying to get close to the Nephilim, and shook his head.
Nephilim has a powerful twisting power, which seems to be very similar to that of Deya, but not as strong as that of Deya. Or, it may be that it has been weakened a lot because it has lost the support of Deya and the person in the light.
But at the same time, because of the terrifying power of the trident dragon, the remaining power was frozen in it, so some people might be able to come here to observe and even obtain the required
The "card" of your own power.
However, this seems to be something that President Teruya allows.
only……
"What Faust said is that before the Link Company and even more ordinary people came here, someone rushed to the scene at the fastest speed." Faust kept sliding the screen on the tablet, and finally found a target after sliding for a while, "Hmm...mechanical puppet."
"Wow~ What is this? Faust?" Hong Lu, who was standing nearby, was holding a telescope and was looking at Nephilim. Suddenly, he heard Faust's words and came over to take a look.
"Faust, my employee card reader doesn't seem to have this function." Meursault asked from the side.
"Eh? No?" Gregor was puzzled. "Didn't you say you were from the same department?"
"This is the data that Faust extracted in advance from the president's personal computer." Faust said, "As long as you use this, you can know in advance what cards have been born.
Turn two pages forward and you can see the trident and the midrash, with the effects written on them.”
"Can you install one for me too?" "I want one too~"
"Please apply to the president." Faust pushed his glasses lightly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Wow... I didn't expect Faust to have such a thing. Honglu, aren't you going to be promoted to a level 3 employee soon... Why..."
"Ahem, hmm." Faust interrupted his question and pressed the screen. The next moment, a photo appeared on it.
"This person..." Gregor noticed the person in the photo and couldn't help frowning.
"Wow, is this a dice head? It looks so cute... ah, the one next to it, a skull-headed demon? Wow, the latest popular costumes are so interesting."
"The puppeteer and yesterday's appointment... The puppeteer is a relatively important person on the list that W Company gave us before. He once tried to seize our perpetual motion machine on W Company's WARP train. Although he failed in the end, he stole T Company's time." When Meursault saw the square-headed puppeteer, he immediately told him all the information about this person.
"It turns out to be an enemy. What a pity! I wanted to ask him where he bought the decorations." Hong Lu shook his head helplessly.
"In fact, the person wanted by the company right now is the person next to him, Yesterday's Appointment. The puppeteer is not on our company's wanted list.
Besides, the president did ask us to invite members of the Symphony Orchestra to participate in the competition. This puppeteer seems to be in the L nest, so this is a good opportunity to invite him. "
"They're about to take your singularity away, and you still don't care? I really don't know what President Zhaoye is thinking." Gregor on the side couldn't help but be a little surprised, then he realized his slip of the tongue, "Ah... then I, I didn't mean that..."
"Don't worry. The president won't mind such words." Faust controlled the screen, swiping gently, and said, "Hmm... Mechanical Puppet, it seems like a weak deck.
Moreover, without [Extreme], this deck is completely useless, right?
The card strength is... four, which is higher than Faust's Mephisto, but not as good as Honglu's Dragon Star."
"What is card power?" Gregor actually wanted to ask what overdrive was, but it seemed a bad idea to ask too many questions at once.
"What is the maximum power a card or deck can exert?" Hong Lu on the side tapped his chin with one hand, looked up at the sky, and thought, "I remember that Dragon Star seemed to be seven? One level lower than Chaos Warrior. It's similar to Minister Spade's card, but slightly weaker, right?"
“Although Dragon Star cards are generally of lower levels, Hong Lu and the perpetual motion machine have a very good compatibility, and Dragon Star also has Synchro Monsters, so the power of Hong Lu cards is not low.
According to calculations, if Hong Lu fights at full strength, he can release a Dragon Star attack once a day, which is roughly equivalent to a full-strength attack from a level 2 or worse level 1 finisher.
However, Honglu has a strong talent and a strong affinity with perpetual motion machines... He may be able to use this power easily in the future."
"Wow... so awesome." Although Gregor was once a war hero, he is now just a slightly stronger fourth-level finisher. He punches in at work every day, drinks after get off work, and lives a life of parasites. His combat effectiveness is much weaker than when he was young.
"That three-pronged dragon...?"
"It is incalculable," said Faust.
“Immeasurable??”
"Literally." Faust put away the tablet, looked at Nephilim, and said, "The destructive power of many monster cards is linked to the star level of the monster card itself, but the maximum output of most monster cards cannot actually reach their star level, and they need the assistance of various magic and trap cards.
