Alice's Dream Club

# 8. Captured Hermes because of this?

Tina has a straightforward temperament, and she directly threw out the confusion.

Lynch, however, ignored it.

It's not that he didn't have a good reason, mainly because someone stepped into his perception at this moment, and now is not the time to chat.

Making a silent movement, and searching around, Lynch quickly found a place where the four of them could hide in this passage.

Soon, several members of the Jishi Society wearing standard hoods and cloaks passed through the passage. They were very eager. Not surprisingly, the outside world put more pressure on them, forcing them to add more people.

After those people left the passage, the four of Lynch reappeared.

Rubbing his own arm, Zhang Lang raised his head and muttered, "I thought things like hanging on the roof and not being discovered would only appear in TV dramas..."

Lynch ignored Zhang Lang's muttering, and led the three of them to continue exploring.

It didn't take long for the four of them to arrive at the end of the passage. Outside the entrance of the passage was a relatively spacious semi-enclosed space, built with a steel structure as a whole. On the opposite side of the four of them was a corridor-like observation window, through which the passage was somewhat blurred and dirty. Through the window, you can vaguely see more steel structures outside the window.

The room has a certain curvature, as if it is a product based on a certain curved structure. There are door beams on both sides that can be used for passage, and the door side is a double password lock for identity authentication. If there is no password and login identification It is impossible to open the two doors.

Fortunately, one of the doors was slowly closing under the action of the closer, giving the four of them a chance.

Zhang Lang, who had quick hands and quick eyes, jumped over immediately, and he stopped the trend of the door closing immediately.

And uttered a terrible cry.

"Damn...why is this door so strong..."

Glancing at Zhang Lang's posture of blocking the door with his legs, and then at the telescopic combat stick hanging from his tactical belt, Lynch pondered for a few seconds and stepped forward to rescue him.

"Remember to use the tools you brought."

Zhang Lang: "..."

Fortunately, most of the manpower may have been dispatched, and no one was patrolling or on duty outside the door. The first thing the four of them saw when they came outside the door was a metal suspended passageway built along the stone wall. , and then discovered that the place where it was located was an unusually huge deep underground space.

The steel beam support structures seen before are filled in this vast deep well, and the suspended platform passages under the feet also rely on these structures for supporting a stable environment.

Tina and the others unanimously turned their attention to the bottom and surroundings of the suspended platform, and their first thought was to find a way to move forward.

Lynch's attention was attracted by the wall at hand - unlike the previous passage, the structure supported by the steel beam brackets did have artificial traces, but the wall at hand was by no means the recently excavated one in the passage out of state.

The wall was built even longer ago, as if it existed since ancient times, and it is only now being discovered by the Jishihui.

The material of the wall is also quite strange, and there are some traces of the depiction lines on it.

Not only the solid boulder in Lynch's hand, but the entire deep well structure is made of this kind of stone.

Without recklessly touching those stone walls, Lynch then set his sights on the path leading to the deep underground well - the simple elevators scattered inside each solid upright structure.

It doesn't take too long for the Jishihui to come here. To be able to do this, Lynch has to admit that the Jishihui's infrastructure construction capabilities are quite strong.

There was still no one to handle the elevator, but to be on the safe side, Lynch remained vigilant and told Tina's team that the three of them would not take the elevator when going down.

You must not sit on one of the elevators that are in a static state. If one of the elevators is suddenly activated, it will inevitably attract the attention of the members of the Jishihui. Moreover, the elevator also has double identification locks. If you want to start it, you must rely on the identity of the Jishihui members. It's not worth the risk of alarming everyone by activating the elevator.

Knowing Lynch's idea, Tina, who was preparing climbing equipment, asked curiously, "Why can't you grab someone to use as a tool?"

"The members of the Jishihui... are the messengers of the wraiths from the other side that you say. This force has its own unique contact methods and insurance."

The perception ability has not caused any abnormalities, and Lynch tried to further liberate his own power: he slowly floated up, maintaining a suspended state a few centimeters above the ground.

"You can think of this group of people as many terminal units that exist as a whole. If one is disturbed, the rest can be passed on to the rest of the individuals through the chaotic core of the dead variant. Simply put, we are so careful now to avoid It stabbed a hornet's nest."

"Even if you are sir, will you get into trouble because of this?" Lewis is ready to climb down, and his eyes are full of envy for Lynch's levitation ability.

Whether it will be in trouble or not, Lynch dare not say, after all, the dream world is completely equivalent to his home field.

But one thing is that objective existence will never change.

"No, I don't think it's troublesome. Anyone who deals with a hornet's nest will have a headache."

Hearing the words, the expressions of the three of them were surprisingly consistent: ...

Anyway, the general bosses have a bit of a strange idea. Adhering to this idea, the three of them chose an area with a relatively complicated steel structure, and moved slowly towards the bottom of the deep well under cover.

The further you go down, the more clearly the four people can feel that this underground space presents a structure with a narrow top and a wide bottom. The disadvantage of this structure is that if you want to reach the bottom, the current method is equivalent to taking a long detour. , the advantage is that the many steel beams used to support the structure and supervised can serve as their cover.

After levitating for a period of time to confirm that there was no possible weirdness below, Lynch asked the three of them to follow his guidance and use the racial talent that comes with the group of demon hunters: short-distance flash.

The energy fluctuations produced by the flashes were controlled by Lynch to a minimum. After about a dozen flashes, the four of them finally reached the bottom of the well.

Obviously, this kind of power would also cause a lot of load for the demon hunter. When they reached the bottom of the well, the three of them were already as tired as dead dogs who had run more than three hundred laps.

The lighting equipment at the bottom of the well should be more complete, and at the same time, some large machines that are working can be seen near the center.

What surprised Lynch was the material used for paving the bottom of the well, which is a substance similar to obsidian. Under the light of the light source, the stone slabs laid under the feet will glow with a strange luster. However, the gloss does not penetrate very deep, showing the huge thickness of the floor.

While the three of them were making adjustments, Lynch began to inquire about the situation of the witcher.

"Speaking of which, where do you demon hunters usually live? I heard you call this place 'the other shore', but I can hardly find any traces of your life and activities in this world."

It stands to reason that these are confidential matters to the outside world, but Lynch is first of all a partner recognized by the high-level, and he has helped the three of them a lot along the way. The outspoken Tina almost responded directly.

"This... Please allow us to keep it secret... This is a rule, we cannot violate it."

Hearing this, Lynch nodded, and Lynch changed the question.

"You have been catching Hermes, so you can always tell me?"

"Because of the promotion task," said Lewis. There is really nothing to hide about this aspect. It is just a task. "The rating of the demon hunter team depends on the task. Capturing Hermes is the evaluation of promotion to the elite level." , Only when we have become an elite rating can we be qualified to contact more jobs within the clan—such as the current situation.”

"To put it simply, the higher-ups are afraid that we will die in the mission, and the promotion mission is a kind of tempering," Zhang Lang echoed, "If you can't even catch the escaped alien race, then don't even think about performing the mission of dealing with the resentful spirits. , that is sending you to death.”

Hearing this, Lynch finally showed a faint smile.

Zhang Lang's implication is that the place where they live is related to the dream world.

Although it is impossible to draw a conclusion, the keyword "escaped alien race" is enough to explain some things: from the perspective of migration events, the Olympians can basically be regarded as "dream world residents", wandering in Hull in the present world Since Moth has the nature of "escaping", and the demon hunters don't live in the dream world, the approximate range of where they live has been determined.

The independent space opened up by using the "phase rift", or... the shadow realm.

And things like the "mission" and "job" of the demon hunter can almost be initially determined.

They are restricting all the transcendent residents belonging to the inner world.

As for why this is done, further investigation and inquiries are needed, but now is not the time to continue with clichés.

The three of them have recovered a lot after a short rest. The bright full-angle lighting and the obsidian-like floor make it easy for the four of them to expose their existence. The steel beam structure is carried out.

Ever since, the majestic demon hunter transformed into Tarzan of the Ape with a hook lock...

To be honest, it was a bit whimsical to expect to have three Spider-Man at first.

The closer the distance to the central area slowed down the speed of the four people moving forward, because at the beginning of the halfway, there were members of the Jishihui patrolling below, and no matter how they swung, it would cause reflection effects on the ground. When patrolling the sentry post, the route ahead became tortuous.

Finally, the four of them stopped when there was less than a third of the distance left. There was no longer a dense support structure in front of them, and the number of members of the Jishihui gradually increased.

The members of the Jishihui gathered here are not much less than the demon hunters attacking outside. If all of them are thrown into the battle, it is obvious that the current demon hunters will fall into a disadvantage, but at this time these people are kneeling devoutly on the ground, and In the direction of their kneeling, there is a strange but familiar thing.
