On heavy rainy days, the mechanical department was stationed at the gate to pull a cordon.
There are also special guards armed with weapons patrolling around.
It is estimated that no chosen one wants to be hit by their weapons of unknown power.
The tightness in front of us feels like a ‘military powerhouse’.
In some ways, this may be similar.
In addition to the guards at the gate, there were also some patrols wearing brown clothes and metal masks.
It can even be seen that part of their bodies have been transformed into machines.
There are many prosthetic limbs and eyes.
It is basically impossible for the Chosen Ones to enter through such a tightly guarded gate.
Then according to the old rules, you must find a hole somewhere else nearby and drill into it.
This is the advantage of the Chosen One as a child.
After all, they can use this method to get out of the Spellbreaker base, and there must be a way to get into the Mechanical School's base.
This is not the point. The point is that there are a few rules written on a sign next to the Mechanical School's station.
When the Pope came here, he was sure that only he could see it because the other children were looking around.
In the eyes of these children, there are just some patterns on this sign.
The rain kept falling from the side of the raincoat, and the Pope fell into deep thought while looking at the rules.
Survival Rules for the Mechanical School Station:
[Rule 1: Only those who are equipped with the Heart of Gears can open the Time Cube and travel to the future and the past. 】
【Rule 2: Never let people see that you are a complete human being here, otherwise you will be in danger of death. 】
【Rule 3: When you are seen by a person whose number starts with 0247, please do not let him leave your sight, you will not want to see him again. 】
[Rule 4: Remember, only those with numbers starting with 0968 will tell the truth. 】
[Rule 5: If you want to modify your body, you can find a human body modification laboratory, but only researchers with numbers starting with 0733 have the key to open the human body modification laboratory. 】
【Rule 6: When a red alert appears in your area, please evacuate to other areas within 3 minutes, otherwise the level will fail. 】
【Rule 7: If you accidentally become an adult, the level will fail. 】
[Rule 8: The elixir can only make people survive fatal injuries for 5 minutes, and each person can only use it once. 】
This was the first time that the Pope saw two rules that failed to pass the level.
And there is an inexplicable death rule.
What does it mean to accidentally become an adult and fail to clear the level?
The Pope is thinking, could it be that the strange world knows that I want to become an adult and regain my original strength, so it just gives me a rule to restrict me?
After thinking for a moment, the Pope shook his head.
No, that shouldn't be the case.
He recalled Zhang Yangqing's "guidance". Zhang Yangqing said that since the world of ghost stories gives children this status, there must be some things that only children can accomplish.
And there is such a rule here, which proves that there is something in the mechanical school that makes people become adults.
It might be a potion, it might be some kind of device, or it might even be certain areas.
Once you step into these areas, 'time' will be lost and your body will grow old.
Because the rules mentioned a special thing, that is [Time Cube].
The Pope analyzed that since this thing can link the past and the future.
This proves that this thing may have special abilities, or that this mechanical school is studying something terrifying.
However, this is just the Pope’s conjecture, and he still needs to verify whether it is true.
The concept of [becoming an adult] is also very vague.
Whether it is physical age or height, this also needs to be examined.
But once the rules determine that he becomes an adult, he will be eliminated directly.
No chosen one will violate this rule, not even the Pope.
There are many powerful extraordinary people who have been directly wiped out by the world of Kaidan.
Also mentioned in Rule 6, a red alert appears in the area. This is another fatal rule.
Pope’s analysis is that red alerts may be divided into random occurrences and triggered occurrences.
It is inevitable that this will happen randomly, so you need to find a 'leave' route to ensure that you can reach other areas.
If you are locked in a closed space and cannot get out within 3 minutes, you will be dead.
If the trigger occurs, you need to be careful about this.
We can use intelligence to analyze what should not be touched.
And tell your teammates not to cheat you.
3 minutes may not be long, but short, it is really short.
Like most of the Chosen Ones, the Pope has now entered the state of the Chosen Ones. At first glance, he must be familiar with the rules of mortality. There is no room for error in this.
Without Zhang Yangqing by his side this time, the Pope can only rely on himself first.
After all, Zhang Yangqing said that he would appear 'when the time comes'.
The Pope doesn’t know when this time is due.
However, there are several fellow disciples who are familiar with Zhang Yangqing on Longhu Mountain.
When the Pope has finished his suffering, Zhang Yangqing should appear.
By the way, it can also be said that this is a test for the Pope.
The Pope has him to thank.
Even if it is a calculation, teammates will be willing to bear it.
This is the horror of Zhang Yangqing.
And the Pope also became the only chosen one in the game who could play solo and double queue before his teammates were dead.
After analyzing the rules of death, the Pope continued to analyze according to the idea taught to him by Zhang Yangqing, which was to find the main line.
The [Heart of Gears] mentioned in Rule 1 must be what I must find at the Mechanical School's station this time.
Maybe it has something to do with the clockwork given by the director of the orphanage.
[Time Cube] is probably the thing at the top of this mechanical castle.
This is the shocking scene that the Chosen Ones saw at the beginning.
Zhang Yangqing also said that the rules are actually connected.
The Pope feels that Rule 8 is an explanation of Rule 1.
Then you need to find the second key thing, which is [Elixir of Death].
Many chosen ones will mistakenly think that the elixir is a reward item here at first glance.
If you don’t die for 5 minutes, that’s something unbelievable.
But the Pope felt that this was just an anesthetic for surgery.
In his opinion, to install the [Heart of Gears], he would probably have to dig out his own heart.
To dig out the heart and achieve immortality, you definitely need to get the [Elixir of Immortality].
After knowing this, the pope couldn’t help but complain about the world and it became more and more torturous.
In the previous ghost stories, some people lost their hearts at the beginning. At least the chosen ones were empty and could not feel the pain.
This time the monsters talked a good deal, leaving the Chosen One to dig out his own heart.
[Elixir of Death] just prevents the chosen ones from dying, but it doesn't mean that it won't be painful when digging out the heart.
But if you don’t dig, you won’t be able to complete the task.
As expected, there were pitfalls one after another.
If it weren’t for the previous level, the Chosen Ones would have been forced to get used to self-mutilation.
If you were asked to dig out your heart at this level, not many of the chosen ones would be able to do it.
Moreover, thanks to the fact that it is not the bodies of the chosen ones, they will return to their original state after leaving.
Otherwise, who would dare to take such a big risk.
At this stage, Zhang Yangqing did not show up. Besides poaching his own, who else could the Pope poach?
