"Sophia... mentor?" Kate asked for instructions while wiping away the traces of makeup on her face.

"Just call me Sophia after you've said it all." Sophia said, "Strictly speaking, I'm not Honglan's mentor, at most I can be regarded as an advisor. The relationship between me and Honglan is just like the relationship between your teacher Kexi and Honglan."

"Is that the case?"

"Yes." Sophia said with certainty. She watched Kate regain the appearance of a black-haired girl, and sighed, "It's really a magical makeup technique, but it's still cute as before."

Kate thought to herself that this wasn't actually her real face either.

But she didn't want to talk too much about it, she just said: "Looks are not important, the most urgent thing now is to go to that different space and rescue the students who are still imprisoned."

"That's right." Sophia opened her hands and took out a huge book out of nowhere, and said, "Come with me, and I will take you to the entrance of that different space."

After finishing speaking, she led Kate to the depths of the first floor of the Demon Refining Tower.

"Where did the New Century Organization set up the different space?" Kate followed Sophia and asked along the way.

"A very deep place." Sophia walked to the deepest part of the first floor, and stopped at the stairs leading to the second floor. "In that organization, there are people who know this tower as well as me, or even better than me. Otherwise, it would be impossible to know all about some small mechanisms!"

Kate asked puzzledly, "What do you mean by small agency?"

Sophia didn't explain directly, but raised her hand to touch her big book, and the words on the page suddenly seemed to come alive, moving rhythmically, forming a pattern similar to a long snake.

"Although this tower looks like it only has seven floors, it's not like that." Sophia's hand hovered over the snake-shaped magic circle and started to drag it, peeling off the mysterious magic circle from the book Come on, "Christian, look at it, this is the full hidden posture of the Demon Refining Tower!!"

In Kate's eyes, the snake-shaped magic circle that was freed from the shackles of the book seemed like a real snake, swishing out.Kate was extremely vigilant, and just about to defend herself, she realized that the snake wasn't jumping at her at all.

"Its goal...could it be?!"

Kate raised her head sharply and followed the snake's trail.Sure enough, the snake lay on the stairs, like a carpet, attached to it.

"This is the magic array diagram of the activation mechanism." Sophia began to explain at this time, "The Demon Refining Tower was a work of a senior long, long ago. It itself is a magic prop or magic equipment, so it also It has many wonderful functions."

"Usually, Honglan School District only used its ability to accumulate magic power and provide spiritual coercion. But its true power has been forgotten for a long time."

Sophia said melancholy, "To be honest, after such a long period of peace, even I, the manager, almost forgot the "other side" of the Demon Refining Tower, unexpectedly I was forced to recall it. "

"The..."other side" of the Demon Refining Tower? "

"Heh, you'll see it right away." Sophia smiled wryly, and her gestures changed a lot, leading the snake-shaped magic circle to emit a dazzling blue light.

Immediately afterwards, the sky spun and the earth shook, and the entire tower of refining demons made a rumbling sound, and everything in the tower began to rotate.

The floor tiles, stairs, and ceiling all began to be reorganized and reconstructed, and the entire tower of refining demons gradually became unrecognizable in this change.

As a space magician, Kate, who is in the middle of this change, feels even more amazing.

In her perception, her spatial coordinates obviously haven't changed.

But the surrounding space is chaotic and erratic as if caught in a vortex.

"Don't try to think about what's going on here. Senior's magic props must have countermeasures against space practitioners, and you can't see through it with your knowledge." Sophia noticed Kate's confusion and reminded her.

"Ah, I know very well..." Kate could feel that the tower was gradually exuding a stronger and stronger aura of magnificence just as it was inside the tower.

This change process lasted for a full 3 minutes. When the tower finally completed the change, the scene in front of Kate and Sofia was completely different.

The empty space is now full of stone pillars, the originally flat ground is covered with sharp and thick iron nails, and the stairs that were originally going up in front of the two of them are also reversed, and the direction of the stairs has become downward.

"The Demon Refining Tower... actually has this side?!"

"Yeah, it should be said that this is the real body of the Demon Refining Tower." Sophia sighed, with mixed feelings, "This is a long time ago, and it will only show its posture in wars - the Demon-Breaking Tower!"

Section No.70 Negligence and Suspicion

"Since you are a space magician, you should be aware of it." Sophia first stepped on the spiral downward stairs and said, "The space coordinates and unknowns of the Broken Magic Tower have not changed at all. But the space inside it is completely different, as if it has been replaced with a brand new place."

Kate nodded, expressing that she fully understood: "Well, the space here is different from the original Demon Refining Tower, but the location is exactly the same. I am afraid that the space is expanded on the basis of the original space."

"Well, being able to see this level of insight shows that you have a solid grasp of space knowledge." Sophia praised, "But the creation of the Duanmanilita space is not as simple as you said, it is actually the reversal of the original space."

"Reverse?"

"Yes, if you pay attention, you will notice that the space that belonged to the Demon Refining Tower no longer exists, and it is replaced by the new space of the Devil-Breaking Rita."

Kate listened to Sophia's explanation, looked at the surrounding scene, and combined with her own perception of the attribute of space, she roughly understood the existence of this tower:

"It's not creating a new space, but reversing the original space for use. Just like the two sides of a paper, the space where the alchemy tower is located is the front of the paper, and the magic-breaking tower is the back of the paper."

"It's a very apt metaphor, that's about it." Sophia nodded, agreed with what Kate said, and then continued to walk down. Unlike the fault-like stairs of the Demon Refining Tower, the spiral stairs of the Demon-Breaking Tower are continuous and can directly lead to the end of the tower.

But before reaching the end, Sophia suddenly stopped in her tracks and said, "The different dimension of the New Age organization you mentioned is buried in this magic-breaking tower. Its hiding place is here—"

Suddenly, she flicked the book with her fingers, and quickly flipped the big book to a certain page, and then a bright green light rose from the book, and rushed towards the wall next to the stairs.

When the bright green light collided with the wall of the Broken Magic Rita, something wonderful happened.

That wall, like a paint that dissolves when it meets water, instantly melted away, revealing the hidden space behind it.

It was a simple small room, square and spacious.There are several pillars standing in the room, like guards supporting the space, firmly guarding their posts.

"This is it!" With a sense of familiarity, Kate recognized it, "This is the hidden space of the New Century Organization!"

"Hey, it took me a lot of effort to find out the foreign objects hidden in the cracks between the second and third floors of the Broken Demon Rita, so I can't make mistakes."

Sophia said triumphantly, "Didn't you say that there are still students trapped here? Hurry up and rescue them."

"Ah."

Kate immediately walked into the room, but after taking a few steps, she stopped again.

"What's wrong?" Sophia asked strangely when Kate suddenly stopped moving.

"Ah, this is really... a bit bad..." Kate's face gradually became gloomy, and she pursed her lips, as if she had an epiphany, "If you think about it carefully, I might have been tricked."

"What's going on?" Sophia listened to Kate's muttering, and said in a daze, "Can you explain to me, student Christian. Didn't you say that there are students who are trapped here?"

"There were originally." Kate said bitterly, "but someone took them away first."

As she spoke, she stepped aside so that Sophia could see the metal shackles scattered all over the place next to the pillar.

"!!" Sophia said anxiously, "So, the New Century Organization discovered our actions?"

"Perhaps so."

Kate came to the place where the space magic circle was originally engraved, and found that the circle here was incomplete, and it seemed that the key part had been erased.

"But I'm more worried about another thing..."

Kate frowned tightly, everything in front of her made her have some bad associations.

"At least avoid the worst!"

So, she turned her head decisively and asked Sophia: "Please restore the tower to its original state, I want to go back to school!"

"Uh, if you want to get out of the tower, I'll just open a portal for you." Sophia said calmly, "But you have to explain what's going on first? I don't like doing things for others for nothing."

"There is no way to explain clearly in a few words, and I am only guessing myself, and I don't really know the truth."

Kate quickly replied, "If you want to hear, Sophia, I'll come to you after the incident is over. I should be able to solve all your questions by then."

"A bad check." Sophia smiled softly, "I don't hate this method of payment."

Then she swiped her finger on the book, and a door leading to the outside world appeared in front of Kate.

"Go, Christian. Don't forget to come back and tell me the story well."

"Well, I promise you." Kate nodded vigorously, then turned around and ran into the portal, leaving the tower.

After Kate left, Sophia stroked the huge book with a thoughtful look.

"The actions of the New Century Organization are getting bigger and bigger... Sure enough, the outbreak of the mainland war is not far away?"

No.70 Knowing the Second Section

The uneasiness in Kate's heart spread like a sickness, she ran recklessly, exerting the speed-up magic on her body vigorously, hoping that time would allow her to recover something.

In fact, she should have discovered the violation earlier.

But at that time, she was completely immersed in the shock of the arrival of the New Century organization, and she was full of thoughts of escaping from the place of evil as soon as possible, so she didn't think much about it.

Now, after tossing with Sophia in the Broken Demon Rita, she has calmed down instead, and can bring together various details of the past to condense a vague and cruel imaginary truth.

"I seem to have made a mistake..." After trying to understand the many doubts, she regretted endlessly, "The traces at the door of the dormitory building, the unguarded prison, and the transcendent space magic, these are all illusions! Abducting Flym and those students does not need to be so troublesome at all. Everything is caused by the criminals, and everyone is misled by the obvious traces of casting spells!"

"And I, too, thought that the prisoner was a powerful magician of the space system, so I was overly vigilant... No, it should be said that my vigilance was in the wrong direction."

Kate complained to herself, "Actually, to abduct people from the dormitory quietly, you only need to use spiritual magic!"

Spiritual magic, this kind of magic that can disturb people's hearts, destroy spirits, and even manipulate people's souls, is famous for its unique control characteristics based on magic.

Many warriors and magicians instinctively show expressions of disgust when they hear the name of a spiritual magician. This is also because the magic of the spiritual system is too difficult to deal with, and it is impossible to defend against it.

Most of the spiritual magicians are the owners of non-attribute magic power. This is not just because non-attribute magic power cannot use other types of magic. The most important reason is that non-attribute magic power will not cause additional stimulation to people's spiritual power.

That's why it's more suitable for inducing and controlling spiritual magic.

And there is another advantage of no attribute-no obvious traces.The use of non-attribute magic will not destroy the balance of elemental forces in nature, and the scale of casting spells is very small.Therefore, even if there are remnants of casting spells, it is difficult to find them.

It is precisely because of this that such a sensational event that has been hidden from Hong Lan's mentors has been made.

"However, the traces of this case are so clean, and it is also related to the exquisite technique of the spiritual magician who did it."

Kate was running fast, the more she thought about it, the more horrified she became, "If the number one suspect hadn't come forward and had a face-to-face conversation with me, maybe even if I realized that this case was done by a spiritual magician, I still wouldn't have thought of it. That spiritual magician has such attainments in precise manipulation."

That's right, Kate has already come to a conclusion on the real identity of the suspect at this time.

"Al."

She recalled all the actions and words the girl had done.Although it seemed unremarkable and normal at the time, if you reason backwards and look at her actions from the perspective of "psychic magicians are criminal suspects", you can realize that her words and deeds are like a script, turning things around. Push in the direction she wants.

"Damn it, you shouldn't be separated from Flinm!"

Thinking about it now, perhaps even the exposure of that space was in Al's plan. She probably expected that Kate would be interested in the place of detention, or even if Kate was not attracted, she had other ways to achieve her goal.

That girl calculated everything too perfectly.Even Kate was being played in the palm of her hand, which annoyed her but also felt a little familiar from the bottom of her soul.

"This style seems to have been seen somewhere."

where is it

Can't remember, but that's not a big deal either.

Compared with other trivial matters, the top priority right now is to find Al, to find Flym!

No.70 Knowing the Three Sections

Although I don't know why the New Century Organization will focus on Flym.

But Kate didn't think that huge organization would do anything that didn't make sense.

If they really need Flimm, they will never let go.

"If everything is as I think, Al, she probably won't go to the mentor honestly, but will directly use spiritual magic to abduct Flym."

In that case, he would cut off all clues, and it would be difficult to find her trace.

"Damn it, I wish I had known that I had set a mark on Flym!" Kate ran towards the playground, her heart full of anxiety and helplessness.

Speeding up at full speed arrived at the playground much earlier than Kate expected. As soon as she stepped into the playground, she was stopped by an acquaintance.

"Kate, why did you come back alone? Where's Royard?"

"Assas!" Kate turned her head and met the boy's eyes. "Due to some accidents, Lloyd and I separated. Let's not talk about that, do you know where Teacher Karis is?"

"I don't know, I heard it's in the dormitory building." Assas noticed that something was wrong with Kate's appearance, and asked carefully, "Did something happen?"

"Yeah." Kate said succinctly, and quickly ran towards the dormitory building, "Flimm has been kidnapped."

"What?!" Assas caught up with the girl in surprise, and asked again, "Who did it?"

"Probably the New Century Organization." Kate sped up the speed, "They seem to have some other purpose, and abducting Flym is probably just part of their plan."

"You mean, they are likely to attack Honglan?" Assas has a lot of information, and quickly understood the meaning of Kate's words, "Then, is there any relationship between Karius and them? Otherwise, you Why don't you rush to find him?"

"Mr. Karis is fine. I only came to him because this is the last clue I have." Kate immediately told Assas about Al, which made the boy in white change his color.

"I know about Al. I thought she was just a newcomer magician. But I didn't expect her to hide so deeply?"
