his face back, smiling, "Hoho, your face is red.""Let's get drunk!""Well, you should be thankful you had some alcohol, otherwise I'd laugh even harder seeing your flushed face." Wen Nuan smiled warmly...First, someone broke in and was killed. Then the surveillance screens went out. Right after that, the power went out. This castle has its own private power plant; outages are extremely rare.
Even if it does appear, there will be advance notice to prepare.
It's impossible for the power to just cut out for no reason.
"What on earth is going on"
In the surveillance room on the first floor, one man frowned. Someone nearby startled him with a word, wondering if anyone else was still left in the castle and hadn't gone out
"Activate all the mechanisms inside and outside the castle, open the ventilation shafts, have thermal sensors check every floor, and send a few people up to the sixth floor to assess the situation." The Duke issued his orders swiftly after receiving the report.
WuShuang and Gui Mian cautiously walked along the glass path, first through a darkness, then into a blue-lit passage. WuShuang and Gui Mian put on their blast goggles. These goggles not only protected against explosions but also blocked various laser radiations, safeguarding their eyes. The surrounding blue light was extremely harmful to the eyes, and with the goggles on, they could see the infrared lines on the glass floor...
They looked at each other, carefully passing through the infrared. Such a level of difficulty was child's play for them. After passing the infrared, Ghost Face asked, "Where is the main gate mechanism"
Because once you pass through the infrared, it's a dead end, there's only one wall, seemingly made of obsidian. It's pitch black, there's nothing, just flashes of blue and black, very eerie.
So far, both of them hadn't encountered any traps because all the castle's mechanisms were inside.
There was a chessboard on the wall. Wú Shuang stood in front of it, and on both sides of the board were arranged the chariots, generals, horses, cannons, elephants, and pawns, as if waiting for someone to play.
According to Hai Lan, this is the mechanism of the main gate.
A solitary figure moved the pieces across the board, setting up a deadly game of generals. Suddenly, a one-and-a-half-meter high doorway appeared in the stone wall. Inside was a master control panel. WuShuang pulled down the gate, shutting off the gravity sensor, then closed the door behind him. He moved another piece on the board.
General, die!
Stone Gate, open!
"Is this the trick" Ghost Noodles said, Nodding, "Don't underestimate this chessboard. It's not easy to set up such a strange formation. Do you know why the Duke plays Go instead of international chess"
Ghostface shook his head, a sly smile playing on his lips. "It's simple, really. Westerners are accustomed to playing chess, and few people play this type of game. In London's underworld, most are Westerners, and hardly anyone knows how to play. Even among the Orientals, those who know this game are scarce. Therefore, using this board for an ambush is the most meticulous and intelligent strategy. The Duke has a sharp mind indeed."
"Will you go down"
"I will, but just now I was only placing the final board state of the chess game from my mind onto the physical board." This was a difficult position to solve. Hai Lan used her special ability to visualize and record the final board state, so she might as well jot it down.
Fortunately, things have remained the same all these years.
Two people entered the secret room, the stone door closed behind them, and this was the secret room...
The light was very bright, the floor was glass, the walls were glass, and the ceiling was also glass. The lights were embedded in the glass ceiling, the incandescent light was very strong, and the temperature of the entire sealed room was at least over 40 degrees.
The room was filled with all sorts of treasures, including Persian statues, priceless paintings, crowns left by ancient Egyptian kings, and oil paintings by Europe's most famous artists. There were countless jewels as well.
There were several large chests, and when Wu Shuang and Gui Mian opened them, they were dazzling with jewels. There were dozens of boxes filled with treasures, seeming to belong to a single person, which is why they were kept here. Below there was also a signature…
In the corner, there are still a few zodiac animal statues on a special stand. They are made of bronze and seem to be quite old, but they haven't faded.
This place is a treasure trove. Anything you take out of here will bring you joy for three lifetimes.
Here treasures are preserved
Neither Wushuang nor Guimian were greedy people; they each sought what they desired. For Guimian, finding "Wushuang" was easy; he did so in a matter of moments. It was a necklace adorned with a pure yellow gemstone, perfectly designed and truly beautiful.
Wu Shuang looked through all the jewelry boxes but couldn't find the Azure Heart.
What do you want to do
“The Azure Heart.” Wushuang said, there was nothing left to hide at this point. After searching for almost half an hour with no success, Wushuang’s temper flared slightly, and she cursed impolitely. Gui Mian was surprised. He had thought that the calm and collected young woman would be able to control her emotions very well.
"What kind I'll help you find it." Gui Mian volunteered, he hadn't heard of the Azure Heart. Wu Shuang shook her head, pointing at him and said, "Just stay here and don't move. There are hidden mechanisms in the secret room, moving around might cause trouble. I can find it myself."
Because the main gate was closed, they were able to search for whatever they wanted here with abandon. If the main gate hadn't been lowered, there would be dozens of traps here. The placement of these jewels seemed ordinary at first glance, but there was a hidden meaning. Even Wushuang didn't dare to be too reckless.
Because Hai Lan's mechanism diagram ends here, she fears a double mechanism. If she touches any part inside, the main gate won't work. The mechanism will restart, so Wu Shuang is very careful.
"Don't worry, I know my limits. Just tell me, it'll be faster if the two of us do this." Ghost Face said. Wu Shuang frowned and simply described the appearance of the Sea Blue Heart. The two split up to search, but after twenty minutes, they had almost searched the entire secret room and still hadn't found the Sea Blue Heart.
Wu Shuang frowned, a hint of anxiety in her heart. "Damn it, where did they go"
Gui Mian said, "Could it be that the Sea Blue Heart you're looking for isn't here"
Wu Shuang shook his head, "Impossible, I'm absolutely sure, it must be here."
The Blue Heart of the Sea is the duke's most prized possession, keeping it close by would be very dangerous. Given his suspicious nature, the Blue Heart of the Sea must be in a secret room, but the key is, where exactly
Alone and calm, Wu Shuang surveyed the room. Glass walls, glass floors, and a glass ceiling—there was practically nowhere to hide anything. All the treasures were here in this room, including the Azure Heart...
She looked at her watch, it was almost an hour.
She had to move quickly. The longer she stayed, the more dangerous it became.
"There's no one like Mo Wu Shuang. It's better if we leave," Gui Mian said, "After searching for so long and finding nothing, the thing you want might not be here anymore."
"You walk alone. The Azure Heart holds far more significance to me than the無雙 does to you. I will get it, no matter what." Wu Shuang stated in a low voice, too lazy to even feign a smile for him now. Her phoenix eyes swept across every corner of the room, wondering if she had overlooked something crucial
Her eyes suddenly darkened, and she looked up at the ceiling.
The incandescent light was very dazzling. Wu Shuang, looking at the ceiling lamp, suddenly asked, "Don't you feel hot"hing won't make a difference." 。"Ye Fei Mo said," 。Cheng Anya sighed and nodded, "Do you remember seven years ago when you and Han Bi were shopping in the Jinsha District and met Jin Lao Da from the n...
