Odd Containment Specialist

Chapter 102 Top of the Tower

"How is this possible!!!" Reed and the observer shouted in shock at the same time.

Edson was stunned.

Looking at the gradually increasing negative numbers above, his brain seemed to be stuffed with several world-class mathematical problems, and entered a state of extremely complex calculations.

Is it a malfunction?

The machine must be broken, right?

Otherwise, how could there be a negative number.

He could have tolerated the altitude of thousands of meters just now, but what about the sudden negative number?

"Is there a malfunction in the altimeter?" Reed said everyone's inner thoughts.

But the observer hesitated and strictly rejected this possibility: "Although it seems to be a malfunction, the abnormal value and dispersion index on the other side are also changing synchronously.

Since his altitude became a negative number, the abnormal value has dropped to more than one thousand, and the dispersion index has returned to zero."

"That is to say... it is temporarily safe." Edson was in doubt, not knowing whether to be thankful.

"For now, you can think so. According to the current situation, maybe we can hold on until the second batch of death row prisoners are delivered." The observer replied.

Edson wiped his sweat: "But what did Xia Shou encounter in there?"

...

...

At the same time, in the chat room on the Dreamland website, the gamblers were also completely excited.

[Anonymous user 16534: What's going on? Suddenly after a few thousand meters, it suddenly dropped to zero, and now it's negative again. There must be a problem with the data transmission, right? ]

[Wasteland Cowboy: @Welcome the grand rebellion, boss, have you ever encountered this situation? ]

[Welcome the grand rebellion: Unheard of. ]

[The top card of the bottom card: But how to calculate it? The winner should still be the rich brother in 200 meters, right? After all, the highest record is 5000 meters, and the negative number is still smaller than this. ]

[Anonymous 56541: Brothers, let me tell you a very dramatic news. I just read the rules of this gambling carefully and found that the description above is: Take Xia Shou's extreme tower climbing record as a reference.

Does this mean that if the Control Bureau believes that this negative number is Xia Shou's record, then the biggest winner of this gambling is the [Cold-blooded Gao Jin] who bet 0 meters! ]

[Hattori Hanzo: Don't talk nonsense upstairs! This rule obviously refers to the highest record. ]

[The top card of the bottom card: Isn't this the big boss who bet 200 meters and 2 million? Why are you so excited? Did you bet all your belongings? ]

Seeing the other party's reply, Goro was so angry.

How could he not be excited?

This judgment will completely subvert the roles of winners and losers. Once the negative number is determined to be valid, those who bet more than 100 meters will become the biggest losers, and those who bet 10 meters or 20 meters as a joke will become the final winners.

And he who bet 200 meters is undoubtedly the biggest loser!

He must not let this happen! Besides, this does not only involve his own interests.

So, a group of gamblers who had given up struggling regained their spirits and started to fight with the enemy camp. The popularity of the post grew rapidly, like a super popular idol actress who had just debuted.

Goro, who was sitting in front of the computer, was also full of fighting spirit and wanted to join the war of words.

Just as he was about to go all out to defend his two million, a hand was placed on his shoulder.

"Don't be lazy, it's working time now, help me pick up the car."

"Minister, wait a moment, I have something important now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a devil's chuckle came from behind him: "That's good, it's time for the Ninja Wind Team to know where their wages went."

Goro snapped his notebook closed, stood up and saluted: "I'll go right away!"

"Just drive the car to the old place." Shangguan Yan patted Goro's shoulder, smiled slightly, tightened his tie, turned around and walked out of the office.

...

...

Xia Shou walked all the way up in the inverted lighthouse.

I don't know how long it took, but he finally saw a different light.

Red light!

The light is the color of blood, and the air is so full that it seems that juice will overflow if you poke it. Without taking a deep breath, the nose is filled with the moist smell of blood.

Xia Shou pushed open the door, but what appeared in front of him was not the top floor of the lighthouse, but the exit of the lighthouse.

But outside the exit, it was not his original world, but a strange, but exactly the same world.

The sky and the earth are red.

The red sun hangs high in the sky, and there are vermilion rocks under his feet. In the vast sea in the distance, blood-colored waves are surging, and the red tide hits the reefs, surging up white foam tens of meters high.

The scene in front of him is like a painter who perfectly reproduced the narrow cape in reality, but added a layer of red filter.

In my ears, the sound of waves came one after another, the salty and sweet sea breeze blew in my face, and the air was moist.

Xia Shou walked around the lighthouse and finally saw the seven-branched ritual plant that Yi Lei brought in at the back of the lighthouse, on the edge of the cliff on the cape.

The tree stood upright, with a complex magic circle below. Although it could not be seen with human eyes, a bad breath was overflowing from the magic circle like breathing.

Obviously, the ceremony was going on.

Next to the tree, there was a high-backed chair. The back of the chair was three meters high. The person sitting on it could not be seen from the back, but the other person's hands on the armrests could be seen.

Xia Shou frowned and found that gravity had returned to normal at some point.

He slowly stepped closer to the ritual circle, while keeping an eye on the person on the chair.

As he approached, Xia Shou tried to use his skills, and found that all his skills were available, but Alice still didn't follow him, which made his neck feel empty and a little uncomfortable.

"Ah..."

A vicissitudes of life sighed from the direction of the chair.

"Another one, it's really rare. I didn't expect that two people would come to the top of the tower in such a short time."

"But you seem to be different from the last person. Did you walk up by yourself?"

Xia Shou came to the side of the man and saw his appearance clearly.

The white hair like dry grass swayed slightly in the sea breeze. The other person's skin was as thin as paper and tightly attached to the bones. It seemed that there was no flesh and blood under his skin. He sat on the chair like a living mummy, wearing a graceful and luxurious aristocratic costume, and a circle of gemstones on his forehead.

Even though he knew nothing about this place, Xia Shou knew that the person who could sit on the top of the Lighthouse of Fear and watch the sea could not be an ordinary person.

"I came here to destroy the ongoing magic array ceremony. Can I destroy it?" Xia Shou asked politely.

As an uninvited guest who suddenly came here, if he did things without the other party's permission, unnecessary conflicts might occur.

Intuition told Xia Shou that the man in front of him who was as withered as a mummy was an extremely dangerous monster.

"Please." The other party replied, as if he had no interest in his purpose.

Xia Shou walked towards the magic array of the ceremony, overturned the seven-branched tree, and messed up the magic array as much as possible.

As the array pattern was disturbed, the mysterious fluctuations that had always made him feel dangerous also disappeared.

When he took action, the withered man beside him sat quietly on the high-backed chair, squinting at him with his dull eyes, neither speaking to stop him nor making any move to stop him, as if all this had nothing to do with him.
