pure white believer

As 004 said, at the bottom of the majestic White Pagoda, facing the end of the path, there is a huge door about six meters high that opens inwards.There were intricate patterns tattooed on the door, and Nan Ting walked closer to see the relief of angels on it.

The angel wears a mask on his face so that people cannot see his face clearly.There are three pairs of wings on his body and two opponents, one of which is holding an apple in front of his body, while the other is holding two knockers on the door.

Nan Ting raised his head and stared at the angel's mask, suddenly having the illusion that the other party was opening the door for him.

He shook his head, shaking the strange thoughts from his mind, and reached for the knocker on the door, ready to push it open.

"Wait." 003 said suddenly.

It wobbled a few times in Zhou Yu's hand, turned itself towards the door, paused, and said, "The angel painted on this door was different from this one when I came last time."

Nan Ting: "When was the last time you came?"

"How do I know." 003 seemed a little annoyed, "I can't remember the time."

004 interjected, "When he died."

Nan Ting: "When did he die?"

"I don't know." 004 said, "I died earlier than him."

Nan Ting: "..."

Time was running out, and he didn't have time to pay attention to the two skulls who just wanted to watch the show. He pushed the door open and walked straight to the inside of the White Tower.

Although he was ready to see anything inside, Nan Ting was still uncontrollably startled when he saw the scene inside the White Tower.

"It's strange, isn't it." 003 said to him from behind, "Exactly the same."

Nan Ting was silent.

He was right.

The internal structure layout of the white tower is exactly the same as that in the base.

The first thing that catches the eye is the magnificent hall. On the left side of the hall is a high wall with a huge mural, which is very similar to the relief at the door; The box is empty.

"There is no water inside." Nan Ting said subconsciously.

003: "What water?"

"In the tank."

"Where is the water tank?" 003 said, seeing the glass box on the left side of the hall again, "Why do you think it's a water tank? It's a glass cabinet containing abnormal items."

Just as Nan Ting was about to take a step forward, he paused when he heard the words: "——what?"

"Isn't it?" 003 asked strangely, "Isn't that always a glass showcase for things?"

Nan Ting stared at him blankly.

But for the past ten years, he has lived in it.

In the base, at the same place... is his water tank.

He shook his head again, did not answer, tried his best to suppress the weird feeling in his heart, trying to convince himself that maybe the base didn't have a suitable water tank when he was taken in.

"W-Where are we going now?" Zhou Yu's voice sounded behind him, "This tower is so high, if my sister is really here, I might not be able to find it for a week..."

Nan Ting glanced at 004 in his hand, and found that the other party did not intend to ask the way.

He was also very confused, so he could only follow the direction in his memory and walk towards the elevator.

But when they arrived, they only found a white staircase revolving straight to the top of the tower.

"This is……"

Zhou Yu stopped at the bottom of the stairs, but Nan Ting was already holding the handrail, and walked up without hesitation, so he had no choice but to hold the skull in his arms tightly, and followed him carefully.

The stairs are entrenched upwards in a posture that does not conform to the laws of physics. When looking down from the top, you can almost see the bottom floor.Zhou Yu only looked down once, and his legs became weak, and he didn't dare to look any more, but Nan Ting would look down from time to time, and he didn't know what he was looking at.

Climbing all the way to the 21st floor, Nan Ting looked downstairs for an extra long time this time.Zhou Yu couldn't bear it anymore, and was about to ask, but the other party said: "Zhou Yu."

Zhou Yu: "Huh?"

"Did anyone follow us when we left?"

Zhou Yu's heart tightened, and he wanted to recall, but his mind went blank: "I, I don't know, I was too nervous at the time, and I didn't pay attention..."

"Look over there." Nan Ting maintained a posture of looking down, and greeted him with his free hand.

Zhou Yu had no choice but to hold on to the handrail, imitating his movements and looking down.But after watching for a long time, I didn't find anything except my legs shaking non-stop: "Why, what's wrong?"

"Are you an idiot?" 004 said unceremoniously, "I even saw that the door of the White Tower was closed."

Zhou Yu was startled, and only then noticed that no one touched the door after they came in, but now when he looked down again, the door had closed at some point!

"The big thing is bad." 004 said with half pity and half sarcasm, "It doesn't matter who comes, what matters is that once the door here is closed, it will not be so easy to open—unless you can find the door that opened it. The man at this door, ask him to open it for you again."

"But I haven't seen him yet..." Nan Ting said as if talking to himself, his eyelids twitched suddenly.

Without even thinking about it, he pulled Zhou Yu over and dragged him to the platform on the 21st floor——

"boom"!

A bullet grazed Zhou Yu's calf and hit the steps he had just stood on.

Zhou Yu yelled in fright, fell to the ground, then got up quickly, and looked around for a week: "Who?!"

Nan Ting shook his head.

In a short time, he could only judge that the shooter was not Wen Zhen who had already entered the White Tower, because the other party didn't like to use any thermal weapons made by humans.

However, the person who shot didn't give them more time to think. In the next second, a person jumped out of thin air and rushed towards Zhou Yu who hadn't had time to stand still——

"I got you."

With a gun in his hand, Bai Ximing stomped Zhou Yu on the ground and said through gritted teeth.

He snatched the 003 from Zhou Yu's hand, and shouted to another person who was walking towards this side behind him: "Mr. Sheng, these two thieves have been caught, and the things are—ah!"

Caught off guard, 003 suddenly opened his mouth and bit his hand hard.

Bai Ximing subconsciously threw his hand forward, and 003 immediately let go when he saw the opportunity, and took advantage of the opponent's strength to fly out from the window on the 21st floor.

Seeing this, Sheng Bin roared angrily, "Why did you throw away your things?!"

As he shouted, he ran towards Nan Ting, wanting to take away 004 from Nan Ting's hand, Nan Ting reacted quickly, grabbed 004's eye sockets, and immediately ran up the spiral staircase to the upper floor.Sheng Bin said "catch him" from behind, and jumped up the stairs.

"You might as well throw me down now." 004 was caught by him, and he still had time to negotiate with him, "I think you don't really want this person to know your identity, so you can put me out of here now." Throw it upstairs, and I promise to keep secret what I know."

After thinking about it, I added another sentence: "Anyway, for you, it's easy to solve me and 003. We are not as ignorant of current affairs as 002."

Nan Ting hesitated for a moment, then immediately accepted the other party's opinion, and threw 004 from the window on the 22nd floor.

Sheng Bin, who was chasing after him, shouted again: "Are you crazy? Nan Ting, what are you doing?!"

Nan Ting didn't answer, nor did he stop, and ran up to the top floor.But then, Bai Ximing, who was holding Zhou Yu hostage, appeared on the stairs in front of him, forcing him to change direction, take a risk, jump directly from the stairs to the 22nd floor, and run towards the other end of the corridor.

All the doors in the corridor were tightly closed, and it was unknown whether they had never been opened or the people who had come before had not passed through here.He only ran about ten steps, and Bai Ximing chased after him again. Nan Ting noticed with sharp eyes that the door behind him was ajar, so he jumped up and pushed Bai Ximing and Zhou Yu to open the door together. door, rolled into the room behind the door.

Bai Ximing didn't seem to expect that he would dare to attack him so boldly. After rolling a few times on the ground, he finally stabilized his body. He subconsciously wanted to shoot, but when he raised his eyes, his body froze in place.

——The one behind the door is not an ordinary room, but a huge space with a height of almost ten floors.

The first thing that caught his sight was the scene at the end of the room, where there was a statue of an angel carved out of marble tens of meters high.There are three pairs of wings growing on the back of the angel, and the two hands on the chest are holding an apple the size of a boulder, while a miniature angel stands on the other two hands on the side.

There is a mask on the angel's face, which is painted with indistinguishable human facial features. His eyes are closed, his eyebrows are gentle, but he is not angry and majestic, giving people a breathless sense of depression.

And at the feet of the angels, there are stone statues in kneeling postures. Surrounding the stone statues are pillars that lift the top one after another, and the pillars are carved with patterns of human beings worshiping gods.

This is a... temple.

In the process of falling, the wind whistled past his ears.

When he was still alive, 004 actually liked bungee jumping very much. At that time, there was a girl who had a good relationship with him in the base, and the two always met to go to the beach to play various extreme sports.It's a pity that the other party got married later, and he can only often recall the gentle sea breeze that ran through his youth in his dreams——

The hard surface of the skull touched something soft, and the memory stopped abruptly.

004 looked around in puzzlement.He didn't remember the soil around the White Tower being so soft.

Then he saw a human hand.

"Who was so careless and threw something down from such a high place..." the person supporting him said to him, "Fortunately, I was the one who just came out of it. What if I hit someone else?"

004 was startled, turned his gaze, and found that 003 who jumped off earlier was also held in the other hand by this person.

He moved his "body" with difficulty, turned his eye sockets up, and finally saw the face of the person coming: blond, blue-eyed, elegantly wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, wearing a dark formal suit, with a chest Wearing a bow tie decently, he was looking at himself with a half-smile.

"It's you!" 004 cried out in horror, "You are that consultant!"
