Back to the Future Sword of Sichen
Chapter 10 Poker Tower
Mistletoe was the last member invited out of the box. The moment the door was knocked, she knew that she had embarked on a road of no return, and Vertin and everyone were waiting on that road. for her arrival.
"Hello, Miss Mistletoe. I am the receptionist of the foundation. Please come with us." The foundation member outside the door was wearing a mask, and his expression could not be seen clearly, but his tone was very respectful.
"Okay." Mistletoe stepped out of the box and came to a corridor. She opened her palms and a few seeds fell into the gaps in the tiles and began to take root and sprout.
At the end of the corridor is the first line of defense library. The empty library echoed with the sound of high heels stepping on the floor. The unique smell of books easily made people relax their vigilance. Mistletoe noticed something was wrong and became a little more vigilant.
"Vice President, I've brought you here." The receptionist respectfully saluted the woman at the other end of the table, then turned and left.
"The library doesn't seem like a good place to host people." Mistletoe sat on the other side, with an eye-catching tower of playing cards on the table.
"Of course, the atmosphere of the library can make people let down their guard." Constantine put his hands on the table with his fingers crossed, looking aloof.
Mistletoe was a little irritated. The lady in front of her had an aura that she hated. "I don't know your name yet."
"Constantine, Vice President of the Joint Committee of the Foundation. On behalf of the Foundation, I welcome you."
She immediately tapped the pen on the table a few times, and a signed document appeared in front of Mistletoe. Mistletoe had seen this document a long time ago, and signing it was equivalent to joining the foundation.
"This signed document was delivered to the box a long time ago. How have you considered it, Miss Weyerhauser?"
There was a bit of anger in Mistletoe's eyes. Constantine smiled broadly and seemed destined to win.
"...Join the Foundation? I don't know much about the Foundation. I need to discuss this with Wilding...Personally, I don't plan to join any organization at the moment."
"In other words, you object to my proposal."
The indifference on Mistletoe's face became even more intense. She didn't like hearing this sentence pattern.
"Vilting saved us in Heavy Rain, and I prefer to listen to her opinion. I will not join any organization without her opinion."
Constantine stood up and came to the other side of the table. She pointed to the tower made of playing cards on the table, "You are the top of this tower. And Vertin, there are many outside the foundation who are helping external mysteries. Scientists' staff, as well as anyone who works within the Foundation, make up the tower."
"Perhaps, Vertin is the bridge between you and the Foundation. But don't forget..." Constantine pulled out a playing card and threw it away without mercy.
"The only thing that can shelter you permanently is the Foundation. We will provide you with the corresponding resources, food, and work. And Vertin, if there is no Foundation, then she will just disappear in the long river of time."
"We are the only building that can protect you."
Constantine's tone was calm. This is what they should do. The behemoth of the Foundation is the harbor that those miserable mystics who are wandering outside rely on.
"Have you thought about it? Do you still need to discuss it with Vertin?"
Mistletoe said nothing.
"She is receiving treatment from us - she will not be seeing you until you make up your mind."
Mistletoe looked ugly and was breathing a little quickly.
"After the meeting, we will recycle Vertin's box, and accordingly, we will provide you with a comfortable room.
Tomorrow Ms. Z will take you to familiarize yourself with the environment of the foundation, go out with her and meet friends. Think carefully about how to make a decision that is good for everyone.
I'll wait for your reply, but don't keep me waiting too long. "
The interview ended and Mistletoe followed the receptionist to her room with a forlorn expression. Wei Mingye put the book back to its original position, took heavy steps, and came to sit opposite Constantine.
"Don't throw things around in the library." Wei Mingye opened his hand, and the playing cards lying on the ground flew into his palm.
"Man with broken hands, it's an honor to meet you and thank you for your contribution to the foundation." Constantine said gently.
"I don't need the Vice President to congratulate me for my modest contribution. There is nothing I want in this library."
Constantine smiled, "You have a big appetite."
Wei Mingye shrugged, "It's not that I have a big appetite. How can I, a cultivator of immortality, understand the stuff of your mystics?"
"Well, immortal cultivators. I remember that those cultivators need a lot of resources. W, you have just started, right?"
"Of course, money is very tight." Wei Mingye's sincere attitude made Constantine have a better impression of him.
“Join our foundation and we will give you all the resources you want.”
"Join?" Wei Mingye shook his head, "If you join at this time, the mentality of the human party will explode. My hands are stained with the blood of a thousand lives."
"I will find a way to solve it. Our foundation needs talents like you." Constantine said sincerely.
"I don't believe it." Wei Mingye smiled, "I don't know how powerful you are and you want to hand me over to the foundation. Even if the president is in front of me, I still refuse.
Joining the foundation now is like walking into the center of a whirlpool. When my bomb explodes, it won't be fun at all. "
Wei Mingye patted the non-existent dust on his windbreaker and put the playing cards in his hand into his breast pocket. "I'm leaving. I've already gone around the foundation and I'm very familiar with it."
Constantine watched Wei Mingye leave, and the poker tower collapsed at this time.
After Wei Mingye left the library, he was still "wandering around" in the foundation. It was working time now, and there were few people walking in the corridor. Wei Mingye's consciousness spread, and any disturbance within a diameter of eighty meters centered on him could not escape his induction.
"Oh, it's nice here." Wei Mingye came to a surveillance corner. The corner here is very hidden and there are no important facilities here. Wei Mingye took out a talisman and posted it on the wall. The talisman immediately sank into the wall.
After doing all this, he just went out and saw Ms. Z walking by.
"Hello. 』Ms. Z turned around and greeted Wei Mingye.
"Hello, Ms. Z, I'm looking around." Wei Mingye has a good impression of her. Not only is she the only fellow in the foundation, but mainly because in the original plot, without her help, it would be difficult for Wei Mingye to Decide the winner with Constantine.
"I've just finished what I'm doing. Do you want me to take you for a walk?" The foundation is so big that you can’t finish it all in one day. 』
"Extremely happy. ” Wei Mingye nodded.
-
Under the guidance of Ms. Z, Wei Mingye quickly became familiar with most places in the foundation. Soon, they were at LaPlace Rehabilitation Center.
"Want to meet her?" Ms. Z said.
"certainly. 』
The two of them took the elevator and slowly ascended. They talked about almost everything, from work to memories of school to the history of the foundation.
They are already familiar with each other, and Wei Mingye can call Ms. Z as Sister Zhang.
"Speaking of Sister Zhang, what happened to those cultivators? Wei Mingye asked curiously. In the previous conversation, Wei Mingye learned that there are actually immortal cultivators in this world.
Even the character in the game, Ms. Mo Sang, once met a Chinese mystic who flew with a sword in China.
"They...I heard from my grandpa that with the development of the times, the spiritual energy on the earth has become increasingly scarce, resulting in immortal cultivators being unable to obtain sufficient cultivation resources, and immortal cultivators are almost invisible." But now that the times are going back, I think the spiritual energy on the earth is also returning, and there should be more and more people cultivating immortals. 』
"By the way, Wei Mingye, can you really fly with a sword?" 』
"Not at the moment. However, it is still possible to modify the magic stone and embed it into the sword, and control the magic stone to achieve flying with the sword. 』
"Here we are. 』
Wei Mingye and Ms. Z stepped out of the elevator together. Outside Vertin's ward, Wei Mingye saw that Vertin's head was covered by a huge glass shield, and there was an instrument analyzing something next to him.
Wei Ting was asleep, Wei Mingye took off his sunglasses, and the window reflected Wei Mingye's expression of neither happiness nor sadness.
Ms. Z looked up and saw Wei Mingye's closed left eye and his scar, "How have you been living these four years?" 』
"I almost lost my life twice. ” Wei Mingye couldn’t help laughing when he recalled that time. Once he almost died at the hands of a strong man, and once he almost died at the hands of his most trusted friend. After experiencing these two incidents, Wei Mingye found that there was nothing to be afraid of.
After staying for a while, the two of them walked back. Ms. Z still had some things to do, and Wei Mingye didn't bother her. They parted at a fork in the road.
Seeing Ms. Z walking away, Wei Mingye started to go back the same way, looking for some remote corners to bury the talismans.
"Sorry, Sister Zhang." Wei Mingye said softly.
