One day, after forming a contract with the old god,

Chapter 20 Life is a mess
The coldness and dampness that belongs exclusively to the underground slowly entangled itself in the descending layers.

Qin Yu subconsciously rubbed her arms, trying to smooth out the goose bumps that suddenly appeared.

The inspector next to her noticed her uneasiness and said warmly: "Because everyone's disaster spell has a certain degree of destructive ability, the inspection location must also have hard conditions such as being firm and far away from urban areas. But don't worry, bear with me." The ninth floor was originally used by the military as a testing site for nuclear explosion experimental reactors, but later the plan was suspended due to some reasons. Now due to the disaster, restarting it again can be regarded as making the best use of everything."

The implication of his words is obvious. In a place that can withstand a nuclear explosion, it is obviously overkill for detecting small disaster curses.

She nodded in understanding.

But in fact, what she was worried about was not the safety of the venue, but an indescribable uneasiness that became more intense the moment she stepped into the elevator.

In the middle of nowhere, the familiar sticky sight of being stared at appeared again.

She looked at the flashing camera above her head and knew that the sense of sight was not coming from there, but...

Disaster.

Are there any disasters in the Federation?
And it’s not just one…

When this ridiculous suspicion suddenly popped up, even she was shocked.

She pretended to glance at the bracelet inadvertently. The moment her eyes locked, the bracelet suddenly lit up without any abnormality prompts appearing on the screen.

You must know that this bracelet was given to her by Nan Jin. The moment it captures the distortion value in the area, an alarm bell will sound.

But now it is quiet...

Could it be that I was too tense and had hallucinations?

She did not question the accuracy of the instrument. After all, this was under the eyes of the Federation, and there were countless powerful people living there, so there must be no problem with security and defense work.

With her mental construction, the previous sticky feeling quietly disappeared.

As if it never happened.

Soon, they arrived at the negative ninth floor.

The moment the elevator door opens, what comes into view is a gray wall, a bit like a cement wall that moves inexplicably during a disaster...

She walked out hesitantly.

The entire space as far as the eye can see is oppressive and gray.

Ceilings, walls and even the floor.

The moment you step on it, there will be a cold rustling sound, only the incandescent lights every two meters are thrown behind you one after another.

They walked along a straight corridor for about 5 minutes, and finally came to the first corner.

Then, they walked for another 5 minutes...

After turning around twice like this.

The inspector finally stopped in front of a cement-colored steel door.

"Sorry, we originally thought about putting a few mobility scooters after we took over here, but it seems that outsiders are not welcome here. Even the mobility scooters are the same. Various malfunctions always occur before we use them." The inspector shrugged, showing no apology at all, "But when it left minus nine, it returned to normal. Isn't it amazing?"

Qin Yu: "..."

What a magical fart...

Although I know you want to comfort me after walking for so long and working hard, but after you said that, I really wanted to run away!

"Maybe it's a magnetic field problem..." She laughed dryly.

Not to mention that the scooter wants to go on strike, she also wants to pretend to be dead now!
The inspector glanced at her helplessly, as if blaming her for not capturing the essence of his words.

Qin Yu: "..."

Also, who did you learn those cold jokes that you think are so humorous?

While talking, the inspector pressed the start button, and the heavy door slowly opened in front of Qin Yu.

Almost as soon as she opened it, the dazzling light inside pierced her.

"There will be a voice inside to guide you later on what you need to do next. Just relax, as if you were in a disaster." He continued to speak slowly in the tone of a person who never gives up.

"thanks……"

The key is that it wasn’t easy when I was in Disaster!

She seriously doubted whether they had some misunderstanding about her.

Just as the giant steel door behind him slowly closed, the inspector didn't know what he thought of. He pulled his neck and shouted: "By the way, you are the first curse master to come to the negative nine area for trial. You must perform well." ah!"

It seems that there is indeed a deep misunderstanding...

But she deliberately concealed his existence, and even the immortal only mentioned it briefly, and in the end she only said a few words about Mingying.

With such a level of description, how could they still have such great illusions about themselves?

After a muffled roar, the steel door closed completely.

Looking at it, the airtight and empty chamber is made of reinforced concrete, and the walls and ceiling are sealed with a layer of steel test panels that looks very thick.

The circulating air is turbid and has a damp smell.

Qin Yu looked around and didn't see any reflective spots, but she knew that the people in the testing center must be silently observing her reaction through the device.

that's the truth.

The staff on the side used the camera hidden and sealed in the wall to zoom in on the screen.

For a moment, the fine lines and pores on Qin Yu's face were clearly visible on the screen in real time.

"Start?"

"hold on."

5 minute later.

A stereotypical female voice sounded in the empty room, and there was even a vague echo at the end: "Please show me your disaster spell."

Qin Yu spread her hands: "My disaster spell has expired. I only had two summoning opportunities, and I used them all during the disaster."

Three times actually, but she didn't mind keeping it a secret.

"Please show your summons."

Qin Yu also just learned that everything obtained in the disaster will be reflected in reality in real time.

But it was unknown whether the effect and power were the same as in Disaster. Now was a good opportunity to learn about Styx. She was also afraid that secretly experimenting at home would cause some unnecessary trouble.

When she was in the car just now, she heard someone from the anomaly project say:
Some inviters are conducting some illegal transactions in reality by relying on the extraordinary disaster spells they obtained in disasters. The anomaly project team must not only pay attention to the occurrence and containment of disasters, but also have some problems in the face of this illegal behavior. the right to govern.

I heard that in order to shut down illegal invitations, the Federation recently built several detention centers far away from human habitation overnight...

What a mess.

Such thoughts flashed past.At the request of the other party, the pot of prickly pear without thorns appeared in her left hand, while her right hand subconsciously clenched the shadow.

Almost as soon as Styx appeared, her body seemed to have been implanted with a fighting instinct. She threw away the ugly-looking cactus and leaned over in a posture of getting ready to attack.

Good guy, such a natural...

Even she was a little surprised by the current muscle memory.

But the moment the cactus landed, an ouch seemed to flash through her consciousness.

She couldn't help but feel guilty, thinking that the immortals had worked hard to heal her injuries during the disaster, but just now, she failed to control herself and threw her out...

I'm really sorry, Xianxian...

At the same time, a big shot came to the testing center.

"Lu Xiuli...what is he here for?" Nan Jin stared dumbfounded as the celebrity next to Minister of National Security Zhao Changzhong walked into the testing center.

She looked at Shen Zhen'an anxiously and lowered her voice: "Captain, won't the people from the Ministry of National Security also come to snatch people from us?"

Nan Jin, who had previously relied on his level to dominate others, now looked like a bitter gourd.

The priority level of the Ministry of National Security has the highest authority in the entire federation. I think it was Zhao Changzhong who decided on the task force in the first place.

If the Ministry of National Security orders people, they will only watch helplessly.

"Can I come in?" There was a faint smile on Lu Xiuli's face. He was obviously being subtle in his words, but when people met his pair of crimson pupils, they couldn't help but want to run away. idea.

The inspector quickly lowered his head, his body trembling slightly and said: "Secretary Lu, I didn't know you would come here today, so I missed you so far..."

"No problem, I passed by by chance." Lu Xiuli said with a smile, "I heard that today's inviter is a little different from the past. I wonder if I can meet him?"

It was those words that were extremely low-profile, but there was no hesitation in his actions.

As soon as he finished speaking, he had already arrived at the monitoring station with ease.

The bud-headed woman who was originally in a dominant position quickly stood up and gave way.

Lu Xiuli waved his hand and mouthed silently: "You continue."

However, the inspectors left the center position open, and they all looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

But Lu Xiuli also has an advantage here. His disaster spell sequence A97 Eye of Truth can be ranked among the top three in the entire federation.

It works wonders in censorship.

He can ignore all disguises and lies and easily see through the origin and truth of matter.

Therefore, with him in charge, Qin Yu's report will also have a certain degree of authority.

They seriously suspected that Lu Xiuli was here for Qin Yu.

I really don’t know what’s so special about this inviter. At least from the current perspective, both the two inexplicable summons of the Disaster Spell appear to be very shabby.

But things still have to go on.

Qin Yu didn't know what happened in the testing center, and the surroundings fell into silence again, until the ethereal voice sounded again:
"Please truthfully introduce all the information about the summoned object."

"Styx, as you can see, is a curled-edged dagger. As for its use, it is no different from an ordinary dagger." She didn't mean to hide it, mainly because her current understanding of them only remained on the surface. "Then Potted cactus has a certain healing effect."

The flower-headed woman did not continue this time. Instead, she looked at Lu Xiuli, who was not changing at the side, but the other party did not make any move because of her gaze.

It's like completely ignoring their existence.

She sighed and continued: "Please use them to their maximum effect. Don't worry about damaging the Negative Nine. Its strength is far beyond your imagination."

Qin Yu "..."

In fact, even if she wanted to destroy it, she wouldn't be able to exert that much power.

So, under the expectant gaze.

She still worked hard and relied on her instincts to perform several seemingly smooth killing movements.

Of course, this is just what she thought.

When her battle scenes were broadcast on the screen in real time, even the well-informed inspectors who had seen large-scale destructive disaster curses fell into deep thought.

What is this all about...

It sucks like shit.

They frowned and honestly wrote down their ratings of Qin Yu's battle.

"Okay, stop..."

Only then did Qin Yu stop what she was doing.

To be honest, she had just found a little bit of feeling, and when she was suddenly interrupted, she felt a little itchy in her heart...

She wanted to show off again, and the inspector seemed to notice her eagerness to try, and interrupted without saying anything:

"Please show your healing powers."

This time, Qin Yu was stumped, but when her eyes collided with Ming Ying's, she decisively made a medium-deep cut on the palm of her hand.

hiss……

It still hurts.

Mingying also captured Qin Yu's heart at the same moment. Under the touch of the tentacles of consciousness, she seemed to hear a buzzing sound similar to apology.

But the return of blood and healing described on the imaginary and light board did not happen.

Does it have to take effect after the safe house is deployed?

Fortunately, I didn't cut it deeply, otherwise I would probably be dizzy due to excessive blood loss later...

She skillfully cut off the corner of her clothes again and tied them around the wound, and finally tied an unsightly knot.

This is a difficult time for the inspectors.

Could it be that she was deliberately concealing her strength, but before starting the test, they clearly stated in advance that her ability would directly affect all aspects of her future life.

An outstanding curse master can enjoy the highest treatment in the federation. Things that were out of reach in the past, such as status and wealth, have completely broken the inherent rotation after the emergence of disaster.

They put the temptation in front of them. In the past, those who came for the test wanted to use all their strength, but when they came to Qin Yu, their understanding of weakness was refreshed again and again.

The flowery-headed woman turned off the microphone and expressed her doubts: "Secretary Lu, do you think the inviter has a tendency to intentionally conceal his strength?"

Lu Xiuli shook his head and denied her conjecture.

She sighed, it seemed that her previous expectations were about to be dashed.

Another summoning ability was once again rated as bad as shit.
