Gate of Apocalypse

Chapter 205 [The White Shadow] (2 in 1)

ONLY_THE_KING_CAN_TAKE_THE_SWORD_FROM_THE_STONE!

Only the King can pull this sword out of the stone.

This... isn't this Nima the famous Stone Sword!!

Chen Xiaoliang smiled hard.

But... the deal is a copy of history!!!

What about the promised "history class”?!!

Though the legend of the Sword in Stone is famous... but this is not real history!

This Nima is just a legend, okay!!

There is no such thing as a stone sword in real history!!

Of course, this is not to say that the legendary drama Chen Xiaoli, who is not real, is unacceptable.

Previously involved copies, whether the first 72 Demon Columns or Tokyo copies, had nothing to do with authenticity.

But the problem is, this copy of London clearly suggests: History!

Jack the Ripper of the Last Random Task also created the plot according to the template of a series of cases that had really happened in history.

Now all of a sudden the painting style has changed... get a stone sword?!

It's not that the story of the legend is unacceptable, it's just that Chen Xiaolian's previous preparations were based on real British historical information.

Now get a goddamn legendary King Arthur.

System, are you fucking with SIAO?!

King Arthur was a legend, and now there are so many different versions of it, like cow hair. That's what it's all about.

God knows which version of the system was chosen as the plot template?

If you walk in looking for the Sword of Stone and meet an Arturia... Pendragon, whose the fuck is this?

“will not truly run out of Artoria. Pendragon, come on.” Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly in his heart.

With systemic urine, the last Tokyo replica can produce mechanical armor.

Now the London copy, if you really get a Saber... it doesn't seem impossible!

“Enter the Tower of London and find something to conquer.” Chen Xiaolian calmed himself down and slowed down: “Obviously, this object of conquest should be referred to as the 'Sword in Stone’, the so-called King's Sword. ”

“Time is before the first dawn comes.” The heavens looked at the time: “It is now more than eleven o'clock, and it should be a few hours before dawn. ”

“The process will certainly not be easy.” Chen Xiaolei stood on the street and looked at this London Tower Palace group under the night… as if it were a place that could devour people.

……

“Have you found Jean yet? ”

Karl's golden complexion stands on the roof, watching London at night.

Thunderfox stood right behind him and shook his head: “Sasha has surveilled the entire city of London surveillance footage and has not found Jean...”

Karkin suddenly turned around and whispered: "Tell Sasha to give up. ”

“Give up, give up?” Thunderfox stunned: “But Jean, after all, is our companion...”

“More than 48 hours have passed.” Karl's golden face is covered in a cold frost: “If someone else did it… 48 hours, it could be dead. And... even Sasha, a master hacked into London's surveillance system, can't find anyone, and I suspect that the person who did it might have the same ability to control machinery or electronic equipment as Sasha. ”

He sighed and looked at Thunderfox: "We still have a task to do, we can't waste too much time. ”

After a pause, he suddenly said, "By the way, is there anything else today? ”

“The serial killer is still being solved by the police, and I suspect… this should be a copy of the plot triggered by some of the game participants. ”

“Well, keep an eye out.” Karkin caressed his forehead and slowed down: “If not necessary, let's not make contact with other game participants and do our own thing first… Remember my words and hide in the dark forever in order to see best. ”

……

When entering the perimeter wall of the Tower of London - although not difficult for Chen Xiaolei and others, Tianyang showed his ability.

With regard to the monitoring and alarm equipment installed outside, Chen Xiaoli saw Tianye just walk past, pressed his hand on top, and soon the access control monitoring equipment lost power, even the monitoring probe quickly drowned.

Is this guy capable, like Roddy, of being a mechanical heart?) Chen Xiaolian's mind is speculative.

“Let's go.” Tian Li smiled as if he were big and big, and took the initiative to go to the front. He gave his back to Chen Xiaolian with no concern. He seemed to have no intention of being defensive.

This kind of pie makes Chen Xiaoliang feel strange...

This guy, just trust a stranger he just met?!

Is he insensitive, or... strong and dependent?

At this time, suddenly there was a fluttering sound behind him, Chen Xiaoliang looked back...

In the night, a bunch of dark, feathery ravens flew over and fell on the branches of the tree.

A raven on the tip of a tree, even as if turning his head, quietly looked at these people who were about to enter the Tower of London at night...

“I hate this atmosphere.” Chen Xiaolian muttered.

……

The Tower of London, in fact, is a castle-like complex with dense towers.

The perimeter is a militarized tower defense system.

Chen Xiaocai and others entered the area, which is the treasure house in the attached building of the Tower of London - the most famous part of the Tower of London.

When walking into the treasure house, in the darkness, the large hall was silent.

Everything here is a very typical Normandy building: thick stone walls, very narrow windows, and even during the day, I'm afraid there won't be much light in, let alone at night.

Large circular columns are supported in the hall and the entire building is quadrilateral.

Walking into the treasure hall, Chen Xiaocai and others have not said anything yet, but he followed Tianli's side and couldn't bear to mumble: “The English architecture is so rigid. If we French built it, we would build it into art. ”

Tian Li didn't say anything, just walked ahead.

The treasure house is actually an open exhibition hall.

A quadrangular glass cabinet in the hall displays a variety of precious Wang instruments.

However, in this dark and repressed hall, again at night, the narrow windows on the thick stone walls support a repressive and heavy atmosphere.

“Look, those square glass cabinets, like a coffin? In this atmosphere… hahahaha.” Tian Li suddenly turned to look at Chen Xiaocai and said such a joke.

Chen Xiaocai pulled the corner of his mouth. He admitted that Tian Li did say something like that, but...

“This joke is not funny.” Chen Xiaocao calmly said: “Let's look carefully to see if the Sword in Stone will be here. Isn't this where the royal items are displayed? ”

Tian Li, as if intentionally, always sits beside Chen Xiaolian, walks beside him and searches carefully in front of a glass showcase.

There are many extraordinary objects, most of them royal sceptres, crowned crowns, trumpets, swords of kings...

A few people have been searching carefully for this thing for a long time, but they haven't found the legendary Sword in Stone - at least not one that looks like a Sword in Stone.

There are text descriptions on the swords shown here. Chen Xiaocai sighed after reading it: “Not this… this is the sword of the British bishop to crown the King, not the Sword of Stone. ”

“Look here!” The spare tire suddenly shouted not far away.

He stood in front of a glass showcase pointing to a treasure trove placed inside.

It's a crown! There is also a ruby-embellished cross next to it - Chen Xiaocai walked over and looked at the introduction, "This crown belongs to Queen Victoria. ”

“Victoria? The one who did * *?” The spare tire laughed.

Chen Xiaocai glanced at him: "You should go back and read more, man.” Paused, he grinned bitterly: “Queen Victoria, one of the greatest queens in British history. ”

And he pointed to the scepter next to him, and he said, "This must be the most expensive thing. See that diamond up there? This is the legendary Star of Africa, the world's largest diamond. ”

The spare tire eyes lit up and took out the tactical flashlight to take a picture of it. Under the lights, the African Star diamond sparkles.

The spare tire's eyes seemed to move a little and swallowed the mouth spit: “Good stuff! Um... can we take it away? ”

Chen Xiaoliang stunned for a moment. Instead, he went on the tire and slapped his brother. "Do you really need money? Or are you ready to be hunted down by the British royal world? Even if you take this thing back, you can't see the light. Once people see it, it's endless trouble. ”

The spare tire was a little depressed, but there were still some in love who glanced at the scepter: “Well... even if you can't see it, it would be nice to take it home and take it out everyday. ”

“Don't let the imagination run wild.” The tire pulls the spare tire apart.

Chen Xiaocai has been attracted to another object in this treasure house.

“Do you know this thing? ”

Tian Li did not know when to stand next to Chen Xiaolian. Chen Xiaolian glanced at him and nodded.

There is a golden bottle in front of a showcase and a golden key next to it.

“Holy oil.” Chen Xiaolian looked at the bottle and thought: "The Holy Spirit's seal of grace… this thing is much more advanced than holy water. ”

He sighed: "Unfortunately this is England, if it's in the Vatican... I'll do it! Holy oil bottles in the Vatican, I'm afraid, are the best weapon against those evil creatures. ”

Tian Li looked at Chen Xiaocai and suddenly smiled: “What, have you encountered evil creatures? Wasn't the last random mission, was it? ”

Chen Xiaocai glanced at him and asked back: “What about you? Did you do any other tasks in the London copy? ”

“Killing a few people, doing a few things, nothing special.” The sky shrugged its shoulders.

Then Tian Li suddenly shifted the subject: “I don't see many exhibits of the British royal family... It's big here, it's not small, it shows so much, the royal family doesn't seem to have many treasures. ”

Chen Xiaocai smiled: “There is something of historical value displayed here. To be precise, the ingredients of the cultural relics are higher than the ingredients of the treasures… Naturally, it is impossible for the royal family to put all the treasures on display here.

And… "

After a pause, Chen Xiaolei slowed down: “It's also Cromwell's sin. When the coup d 'état overthrew the royal family, he ordered the sale of many of the royal treasure vessels, allegedly to raise military money.

Most of them were scattered among the folk, and ghosts knew where they were going, perhaps they had fallen quietly into the treasure room of a large collector.

The royal family has been trying to recover it, and for centuries, only a small part of it has been bought back. ”

“You seem to have done a lot of homework.” Tianli looked at Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaocai also looked directly at Tianli: “After all, it is a historical copy, always to gather some information. ”

Heavenly muttered: "Oh? So... what do you know about this thing? ”

“A lot.” Chen Xiaoliang suddenly smiled: “However, I'm afraid it doesn't do much for eggs. ”

“ …… ”Tian Li looked at Chen Xiao Liang curiously.

Chen Xiaoliang suddenly frowned, his eyes narrowed and stared closely at the sky: “Mr. Conan, you… should be British. As an Englishman, don't you even know the legend of your own country? Stone Sword is Britain's most famous legend. ”

Tian Li stunned for a moment and laughed: “Can't I read less? ”

This phrase choked Chen Xiaolian to silence.

However, Chen Xiaoliang soon calmed down and watched Tianli turn around and walk forward. Chen Xiaoliang suddenly whispered: “You are not British. ”

“…” Heavenly stood still.

Chen Xiaoliang slowly said: “Although your outfit and your appearance are very English. But I'm sure you're not. ”

“What do you mean?” Tian Li turned around and looked at Chen Xiaolian with narrowed eyes.

“I can't believe you were curious about the scarcity of exhibits here… I don't think the British would be too familiar with this place. You know too little about the history of your country. Besides, let's not talk about history. You don't even know a legend like Sword in Stone? ”

“So what.” Where am I, "he said," has anything to do with working with us on this task? ”

“…” Chen Xiaocai was silent for a while. Unexpectedly, he did not continue to pursue, but smiled slightly: “It doesn't seem to matter. ”

“That's it.” Shake your head: “I don't pry into your secrets, so you don't have to ask me any secrets. ”

He said, turning his head, shouting at Jean, who was also looking elsewhere, and the tire spare brother.

“Come on, I'm sure the Sword in Stone isn't here... the system won't give you such a low-difficulty task. They won't let us find them as soon as they come up. Must be hiding somewhere hard to find. ”

Heavenly and letting go in front, walking towards the other side of the treasure house.

Chen Xiaocai waited for the spare tires to come to him, and he slowly said something on the team channel.

“Watch out for this Conan... he's weird. ”

……

The heart of the Tower of London is naturally the famous White Tower.

This was originally a military fortress, a typical Norman-style building, a military fortress on the Quartet. There is also a dense tower around.

The access between the towers had already been set up with some modern metal doors, but there was heaven in the team, where he could easily open the doors.

This makes Chen Xiaoxiao increasingly suspect that the ability of this guy called Conan may be similar to Rhodey's mechanical heart.

Architecture is a human shaped locksmith.

The White Tower is a square building, close to 30 meters high, three floors up and down. There are double walls around.

Chen Xiaoliang and others approached the White Tower from the outside.

As you approach the White Tower, cross a lawn on the left.

At this point, you can still hear the loud noise of ravens coming from distant trees.

Occasionally there is also the sound of a fluttering dance.

“This is like a cemetery.” The spare tire mumbled: “Only the cemetery will see so many crows. ”

“These are ravens.” Chen Xiaocai thought about it and suddenly laughed: “But it's not too crazy to say this is a cemetery. ”

“What?” The spare tire looked at Chen Xiaolian and looked around: “Is this really a cemetery? ”

“It's not… this is the headrest, to be exact. ”

“ …… ”

Chen Xiaolian looked at the ravens in the trees in the distance and slowly said: “This is not a normal breaking table. It is the death penalty committed exclusively against eminent nobles and royals. I remember reading some of the files, and dying here were all distinguished historical celebrities. ”

The spare tire shrunk its neck and sighed: "Shit, bad luck! How did you just get rid of the Ripper and come back to such a ghostly place... I said, no, this mission, we also met with some grievances, right? ”

Spare tires don't look very good: “We don't have any firearms to deal with grievances. ”

Chen Xiaoliang's face also looked a little ugly.

If you encounter any more grievances... or Jack the Ripper like Columbo's forensic surgeon, you will use the Dark Witchcraft Death...

He had no better idea.

Bai Qi has already summoned once, don't expect it to come up again in 24 hours.

So...

And at this point, for some reason, it was probably this group that walked across the lawn and shook the crows on the treetops.

The ravens suddenly made a fluttering sound, flying together and circling around the lawn!

Above the sky, there was a hairy “quack, quack” sound!!

This voice, heard in the night, is cold in the heart!

The spare tire couldn't help but pull out the gun, looked into the sky, thought about it and put it away again, sighed: “Shit, if it wasn't shocking... I would have known it was coming with a bow and arrow! These nasty crows! ”

“Crows are British royal mascots.” Chen Xiaocai laughed: “The British royal family believes in a legend that crows are divine birds, and if one day crows disappear in the Tower of London, the country will perish. So these crows are babies, and they're usually fed exclusively. ”

The loud “quack” scream came from the ear, and the spare tire couldn't bear to laugh: “Divine bird? The royal family of England is so delicious! ”

The three joked and quickly crossed the lawn towards the outer wall of the White Tower.

Tianli has opened the door of a tower and waved to the three of them.

Chen Xiaoliang quickly walked over and looked at Tianli and the tower behind him.

At this time, Chen Xiaoliang's face suddenly changed sharply!!

Just moments ago, he sees a white shadow!!

It's like being a human being, but wearing white clothes... although it's just a glance, Chen Xiaoliang can be sure that he's not mistaken!

It was like... on the second floor of the tower, in the corner of a lounge, a white corner flashed!

It's like a breeze, that's a woman's figure!

Night, Night, Castle, Crow...

The figure of a woman in white flashed in the corner...

After a cold breeze, Chen Xiaoliang suddenly felt a slight chill in his heart!

“Did you... see that? ”

“What?” asked the tire.

“…” Chen Xiaocai stared at the second floor of the tower, hesitated for a moment and was about to say the scene he had just seen.

And at this point, a strange voice fell into Chen Xiaolian's ear.

“Hehehehehehehehe...”

A woman's voice.

This gently laughed, unable to speak strangely, but it seemed to fall directly into Chen Xiaolian's ear!

Chen Xiaoliang suddenly became stiff and quickly summoned the fearless battle axe and grabbed it!

“Captain?” The tire spare brother looked at Chen Xiaoliang suddenly burst out and took out his weapon, looking like a big enemy: “What's wrong? ”

“... you didn't hear?” Chen Xiaolian's face is even uglier: “The laughter? ”

“... what laughter?” Both tires and spare tires have a very confusing look.

Chen Xiaolei's eyes flickered, biting his teeth hard: “Just now...”

He's not finished yet, as if he heard that voice again on his ear!

“Hehe hehe...” This gentle laugh, like with some strange rhythm, but without any pleasure, makes people cold!

Moreover, this time, Chen Xiaocai heard more than just laughter.

At the end of this smile, word for word fell into Chen Xiaocai's ear.

A woman's voice, like crying.

“My neck... hurts so much... hehe...”

Chen Xiaolian's face is tiny!

……

Looking at Chen Xiaoliang's face on the spot, both tires and spare tires realised something was wrong. They immediately stood firmly on Chen Xiaoliang's left and right sides and looked around vigilantly.

“Captain? What's going on?" Tires sound low.

“I heard a voice.” Chen Xiaocai sighed: “A woman's voice... you didn't even hear her? ”

“No.” Tire spares shake their heads.

Chen Xiaolei lifted his finger to the second floor of the tower: “I saw a white shadow flashing from there! ”

The spare tire was about to say something, but the tire was cautious and pressed the spare shoulder, whispering: “Don't interrupt the captain's words! Um... little face, what else? What else did you find? ”

“There's a woman talking in my ear.” Chen Xiaolei looked strange: “She said... she had a sore neck. ”

The atmosphere is getting a little weird!

And at this time, in the sky, that “quack” crow screams still intermittently...
