Chapter 671: Harem (Part 7)

"Well... anyway... everyone calm down, if you have something to say," Feng Bujue's first reaction after seeing Twenty-Three was to walk forward and stand between her and Lute.

"Why are you here?" Twenty-three looked at Brother Jue and asked in a deep voice, "Why...are you with her?"

"It's a long story..." Feng Bujue replied, "I have to explain slowly..."

"How did you enter this sandbox?" Root took two steps forward and looked at Twenty-Three expressionlessly, "Both ends of the passage should be one-way..."

"Ha..." Twenty-three tilted his head, looked at Root and smiled, "It's very simple. I rewrote your crude code and entered from the other end of the maze."

"Oh?" Root muttered after hearing this, "Although the sandbox was temporarily established, the code is so fragile that even you can change it... This is really beyond my expectation."

"Hmph... I seem to be underestimated by you again..." Twenty-three sneered, "But... with your current data strength, you still talk to me like this... is it really okay?"

"Isn't your data intensity also reduced?" Root snorted coldly, "After staying in the π maze for so long, you have already exhausted all your energy just to maintain the integrity of your data... Now you Then rewrite the code I created and forcefully enter from the other end of the passage..." When she said this, a white light floated in her eyes, "Well... your strength has also dropped to about level four, hasn't it? "

"That's true..." Twenty-three said, "Since everyone is not in the best condition, then the conditions are fair, why not stay here..."

"Stop!" Feng Bujue didn't even let Twenty-Three finish his words, so he waved his hand and shouted, "No fighting."

"What? You want to help her?" Twenty-Three Turns asked, glaring at Brother Jue, with a hint of resentment in his eyes, as if he had been betrayed in some way.

"He's not trying to help me," Root said. "He's just stopping us from having a pointless fight."

"Is it meaningless?" Twenty-three asked doubtfully.

"Yes, it's meaningless." Root said, "Because... I have no intention of becoming your enemy."

"Ha..." Twenty-three laughed again, "Long time no see, you actually learned to lie..." She turned her head and glanced at Brother Jue again, "Did you teach me?"

In a sense, at this moment, Brother Jue finally realized what Shura Field is...

After twenty-three paused for two seconds, he looked directly at Root and asked: "Isn't it that you built this passage to enter the π maze, rescue Link and Ed, and snatch SCP-079 from me?"

"No." Root answered this question in a very calm tone.

"Oh?" Twenty-three obviously still didn't believe her and asked, "Then what do you want to do?"

"Rescue you and ask you to bring SCP-079 to Zero." Root replied, "Then...completely destroy the entrance to the π maze and trap Link and Ed inside forever."

Twenty-three was startled when he heard this: "Do you think I will believe you? What's the reason for you to do this?"

"I... am no longer the same person I used to be..." Root thought for half a second and replied, "I want to change origin's course of action and change it to... a route similar to yours."

"That's it..." Twenty-three heard this sentence. She immediately continued, "So... the existence of Link and Ed has become an obstacle to you. Only by letting them disappear can you gain complete control in origin." She paused, "And in the world where there is no conflict of ideas, Under such circumstances, it is acceptable to let SCP-079 fall into the hands of No. 0, because you know that only No. 0 can make it work at its highest efficiency."

"That's it." Root nodded and continued.

"Everyone has a logical circuit." Twenty-three added, "But... something has not happened yet. Even if it is logically established, it cannot be the basis for me to trust you."

"That's why I found Feng Bujue..." Lute replied. "Why do you think I want to make this temporary sandbox? I could always create a safer passage to complete the above things, but I didn't..." She glanced at Brother Jue and then turned her gaze to Twenty Sanshen said, "I came to Feng Bujue just to ask him to vouch for me and convince you..."

"Hey, hey... just wait a minute..." Twenty-three hadn't spoken yet, but Brother Jue turned around with a strange expression and continued, "What you said is very strange... Why do you have to ask me to convince her? "

"Because...according to my observations during the Summit Contest, you two seem to..." Root replied with vacant eyes.

"I understand." Twenty-three continued coldly, "I'll just believe you for now."

"Hey! What do you understand!" Feng Bujue was shocked, "And what have you... observed!"

"So...what are your plans now?" Brother Twenty-Three Visionless continued to say to Root.

Lute also thought that her brother was like air, and replied: "Now that you have found the entrance to the passage by yourself, then things will be easier." As she spoke, another wave of data flow flashed in her eyes, "I will now Both ends of the passage are sealed, which will not only extend the existence of the sandbox, but also prevent Link and Ed from sneaking in the same way as you."

"Well, this is a top priority." Twenty-three responded.

"After I complete the blockade, we just need to help the players in this scenario pass the level as soon as possible." Root said, "As soon as the main storyline of the scenario ends, we can leave the sandbox and return to the other world."

"When we get there, our data strength can be restored." Twenty-three took over and said, "At that time, we can work together to destroy the entrance to the π maze and avoid future troubles."

"Yes, let's do it without further ado." Ruite nodded.

The two of them, who were at war with each other a few minutes ago, decided the matter among themselves after some exchanges. Feng Bujue, who was left alone by them, couldn't even get a word in...

After two seconds, Twenty-Three suddenly looked at Brother Jue and said, "Feng Bujue, you are the strongest here now. When Lute is rewriting the code, you have to be responsible for protecting her."

"You two still know that I'm the strongest..." Brother Jue continued with glaring eyes, "The conversation just now did not mean to discuss with me at all... Even now, you are sending me as a matter of course..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt his shoulders sink...

"The remote rewrite operation is very troublesome. It takes me 80 to 120 minutes to complete the blockade; in order to improve efficiency, I will temporarily transfer 99% of my attention elsewhere. Until then, just go behind my back." Lu When Te spoke, he was already on Brother Jue's back like a zombie and closed his eyes (if he had them open, the large amount of high-speed data flow would produce strong light, which would be too conspicuous).

"It's a good idea to chop first and then tell..." Feng Bujue couldn't help it. Everyone climbed on his back, so he didn't necessarily throw it to the ground.

So, he simply lifted up Root's two thighs and put them on his back to make them more stable.

"Next... let's find a place to rest first?" Feng Bujue asked Twenty-Three immediately. "You don't have to let me carry her around, right?" He said, raising his eyes and looking around, "I think we are already attracting enough attention..."

This is the truth... When Brother Jue and Root were walking on the street just now, the number of heads turning was already high. Of course... regardless of men or women, people only turn around because of Root.

And when Twenty-Three walked up to them and started talking, the number of heads turned by the three of them increased steadily...

Not to mention the attractiveness of the two beauties (there are many beauties in the harem city, they may not be able to attract everyone's attention), the Shura Field (at least they look similar to those passing by)... is infinitely attractive.

Passers-by (mostly women) saw Brother Jue standing between the two women, looking embarrassed and unable to say anything. The heart of gossip is naturally ignited in an instant, and you can't help but slow down, look more, listen more...

Fortunately, most of the conversations between Root and Twenty-Three were content that had nothing to do with this world and had been blocked. Passers-by hardly heard a whole sentence.

And most of the male passers-by are saying something like this in their hearts: "You are not as good looking as me, but you can actually trigger this level of Shura field... That boy must be extremely powerful in some aspects..."

…………

At the same time, another part of the city.

"Ah~ It's so strange." Huajian muttered, "It's been more than an hour. There is neither a script introduction nor a main quest... You can't even see the team column. What the hell is going on?"

"Don't worry. There are no death threats in this city anyway." Ruoyu, who was walking beside her, turned around and replied, "We will continue to search on the streets. As long as we find Sujue... we will definitely know something."

The two of them were already in the harem city from the moment they entered the script. It's just... without a script introduction or mission, the two of them were a little at a loss and could only wander aimlessly on the street... hoping to trigger a mission, find a prop, or meet a teammate or something.

"You two girls, please stay." Suddenly, a soft voice sounded from behind them.

Ruoyu and An Yueqin turned around and saw a handsome young man. He tied his hair in a bun, wore a blue robe, held a folding fan in his hand, and wore beautiful jade on his waist, looking like a scholar.

It's just... that for some reason, there were two pieces of dog skin plaster on his fair face, covering half of his face.

"You're so polite, young man..." He was about to say hello.

Huajian interrupted: "Xiaosheng? Are you a woman disguised as a man?"

The young man's expression changed slightly immediately, but he soon said with a smile: "Girl, you have good eyesight..." When he said this, "he" no longer disguised his voice, and directly said in a female voice, "How can I see it at a glance?" Just know through me..."

"Uh... are there still people who don't know enough..." Hanajian asked doubtfully, "Even if it can't be seen from the ears and cheeks, you can tell by looking at the neck that there is no Adam's apple..." Her eyes moved down, "Also... no matter how you look at your breasts..."

"Huajian (Ruoyu usually calls his teammates by their IDs in scripts)..." Ruoyu winked at Huajian and called her to signal her not to say unnecessary words.

"I see..." The girl who was disguising herself as a man immediately had two blushes on her face, and responded awkwardly, "I... this is also my first time pretending to be a man..."

"Alas..." Ruoyu sighed and took the initiative to change the subject, "I wonder why the girl stopped us?"

"Oh! That's it..." the girl said immediately, "Ben..." When she said this word, she seemed to have let it slip, and quickly changed her words, "I saw two sisters walking around in the street for a long time. He seems to be looking for someone... so I dare to ask, are you two new to this harem city? "

"What city did you say?" Huajian was stunned upon hearing this.

Ruoyu was still calm, and she replied without changing her expression: "Yes. Is there anything wrong?"

The girl quickly shook her head and waved her hands: "No, no, sister, where are you talking about... I just want to ask you two if you need..." She raised her eyes and looked at their expressions, "...a guide."

…………

At the same moment, the center of the harem city - Lianxian Palace.

This place is the forbidden area of ​​the harem city and the residence of Ji Conglong, the lord of the harem city.

According to legend...Lianxian Palace is a paradise of paradise, with flower gardens and jade towers, stars and moon intertwined, dust and fragrance, and beautiful women like clouds.

Here is a veritable and real "harem". The only ones who can enter the palace...are Ji Fenglong and her women.

The subordinates and guards who usually come to report matters to Ji Cenglong can only go as far as the entrance of the first hall. Anyone who dares to look inside will be turned into a fan by Ji Fenglong without hesitation...

And today. There was actually such a man who came to Lianxian Palace and tried to force his way in...

"Please come back, Master Mo..." In front of the gate of the Immortal Palace, a stunning beauty wearing a light yellow gauze was looking at the man at the foot of the steps with an indifferent look and said, "You injured Huo last night. General, the city lord will no longer pursue the issue of forced entry into the city, but this is not a place for you men to come. If you insist on forcing your way in..."

"...What do you think?" The man known as "Master Mo" wiped away the bloodshot eyes at the corner of his mouth. shouted loudly.

"Sigh... Master Mo, why are you embarrassing us servants..." The woman sighed, "The city lord feels ashamed of you and tolerates everything. But you are forcing yourself so hard... We are also in trouble. ah."

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes or heard it with their own ears, no one would believe that this woman in yellow gauze was just a "servant."

This woman's surname is Lin Que, and she is one of the three masters under Ji Fenglong. Her cultivation has reached the eighth level of the Saint Yuan Wuji. Her appearance is as beautiful as flowers and jade, and her beauty is natural.

But such a woman who could conquer a country and a city willingly stayed by Ji Cenglong's side, looking after her home and nursing home...

"I don't have to go in. I don't want to go in either." Master Mo continued sadly, "I just ask her to come out to see me and speak clearly!"

"Master Mo, the city lord has already said..." Lin Que replied, "Twenty-three years ago, she made it very clear. She will not marry you, nor will she marry any man. . Because no man in this world is worthy of her, only women can make her fall..."

"Nonsense! She is obviously a woman! How can there be any truth in this?" Master Mo shouted.

Seeing this, everyone must have understood that this "Master Mo" was the fiancé who was injured by Ji Conglong.

His name is Mo Ruqiu, and he is the eldest son of Mo Ruqiu, one of the four major families in the Shengyuan world.

Mo Ruqiu and Ji Fenglong were the same age, and their marriage was decided as early as when they were born. To put it bluntly... it's just a way for the two big families of Jimo to try to consolidate their relationship.

The reason why the wedding date is set more than three hundred years later is mainly because of the progress of cultivation...

Super first-rate sects like the Four Great Families undoubtedly have super first-rate skills. By practicing their skills, your cultivation will naturally improve much faster than by practicing those miscellaneous second-rate skills. So...the elders of the two families pinched their fingers and calculated. After practicing for more than three hundred years, both parties would probably be able to reach the realm of Saint Yuan Wuji. If you get married by then, you can prevent some unexpected situations from happening... For example, one of the spouses is a loser and can never break through after practicing to the mortal realm; or one of the spouses has extremely dull qualifications and has practiced for three years. The century-old top skills are still stuck in the realm of true essence...

If the above situation occurs, the engagement will be immediately voided, which is what both parties have agreed upon in advance.

So, three hundred and sixteen years passed. It's like Qiu Shengyuan Wuji's fifth rank, while Ji Fenglong... had reached the ninth rank as early as sixteen years ago. Then, the drama of breaking up the engagement and running away from home was staged...

Three years later, when Ji Fenglong founded the harem city, Mo Ruqiu also went to see her once. After three years of hard training, Mo Ruqiu improved a level, but he was still no match for Ji Fenglong. Furthermore... the latter had just come out as gay at that time and was a bit crazy, so he fixed Mo Ruqiu again.

This time, Mo Ruqiu suffered physical and mental injuries, and her injuries did not heal for ten years...

To make a long story short, after another ten years, Mo Ruqiu practiced hard and took another step forward, reaching the realm of the seventh step of the Holy Yuan Wuji. To be able to reach this level before reaching the age of 350 is actually very good. His qualifications are not low, but they are just a little worse than monsters like the Ji family brothers and sisters...

However, this time when he visited the harem city, Ji Fenglong didn't even want him to enter the city gate.

It stands to reason that Mo Ruqiu is well-educated, has a high level of cultivation, and has a very upright appearance (indeed, he is very handsome). Even if he is forced to compete with him to enter the city, he will definitely meet...

But... the city lord said he wouldn't let in, so he wouldn't let in.

In desperation, Mo Ruqiu could only force his way in, so Huo Wei was shot... Fortunately, Master Mo was a good man (in every sense of the word) and showed mercy during the fight, only injuring General Huo slightly (allowing General Huo to suffer minor injuries). He could do the job) and stopped.

And then...there was this scene in front of me.

Not to mention that Lin Que, a master of the eighth level of the Saint Yuan Wuji, is sitting in front of Lianxian Palace, and the two guards at the entrance of the palace (Lianxian Palace is also protected by a barrier, and its strength is much higher than that outside the city) are also there. He is a master on the same level as Huo Wei. Even if an intruder from the ninth level of Saint Yuan Wuji really comes, they can resist it for a while, let alone Mo Ruqiu...

"The whole world has accepted the fact, but you, Master Mo, can't accept it." Listening to Mo Ruqiu's self-deceiving cry, Lin Que shook his head and sighed, "I have nothing to say... I can only ask you to leave on your own. , It’s useless to say more.”

What she said makes sense, as the saying goes - you can never wake someone who is pretending to sleep.

"Okay! That goes without saying," Mo Ruqiu said, "If I don't see her today, I will die here in battle!"

As he spoke, he stood with his feet apart and raised the Holy Yuan again, hoping to compete with his opponent again. (To be continued...)
