Alice's Dream Club

Turning out the bar, Lynch came to the opposite side of the bar. There was an oil painting of almost the same height hanging here. Lynch didn't care about its quality, anyway, it must be an antique.

Moreover, the high value contained in it definitely sold the kind of picture frame that I couldn't afford to buy.

After testing the stability of the oil painting frame for a while, but not taking it off, Lynch asked Alice tentatively.

"Is there anything hidden behind this?"

"I said there is a hidden door owner, do you believe me?"

Knocking on the wall did not have that kind of hollow echo, but after all, this is a club, and under Alice's adjustment, there may be a passage behind at any time, so Lynch nodded approvingly.

"Then remove that secret door and replace it with this transmission channel."

"good."

With the lifting of Alice's arms, there was a muffled sound of shifting and clenching of structural changes inside the wall.

"...There is really a passage behind here!?"

"Yes," Alice tiptoed and smiled, her slightly swaying body proved her satisfaction at the moment, "I moved over just now, just before the master checked whether there was a secret door."

Lynch: "..."

Under Alice's continuous adjustment, the entrance of the teleportation channel shining in the reception hall slowly disappeared, and a push-type mechanism gradually appeared beside the oil painting. The mechanism is not hidden, but if you don't observe carefully The whole picture of this oil painting must be hard to find for a while.

He tilted his head to signal Lynch to touch the switch, and after he pressed it, the oil painting opened like a door. In the open position, it was the transmission channel leading to the dream world.

It’s not just that there is another world behind the murals. Behind the oil painting, there is a corridor that connects with the other world. The corridor is very clean, and there is a new set of brooms, dustpans and mop buckets in the corner...

It seems that Alice has already thought up the arrangement.

After standing still and staring at the set of cleaning tools for a moment, Lynch stepped into the passage.

The texture of the material that makes up the channel is a bit weird, although it is iron-colored and can feel a little warm when touched, and the touch is definitely not steel, more like the texture of masonry.

After catching up with Lynch, Alice explained from the side: "Before I was busy, I didn't have time to tell the owner. I changed the floor tiles and installed a new floor heating."

"……so……"

"So these are the remaining decoration materials, silver obsidian. I heard that these can improve the quality of sleep, restore the body's energy, and even have the effect of warding off evil spirits and driving away evil spirits!"

Touching the warm walls heated by redundant floor heating, Alice asked, "Is it true?"

Lynch's black eyes disappeared immediately.

He pinched Alice's head: "Not to mention whether it's true or not, just squatting in the club, isn't it better than any legendary stuff to ward off evil spirits?"

"You really don't know how to chat!" After kicking Lynch, Alice snorted angrily, "Besides, I'm not good at it. Isn't there a wild ghost in the club who just eats and waits to die?"

"..." She hadn't forgotten the setting that vampires are also ghosts.

Passing through the passage, the place where the two came to has become the lower part of the center of the maze. The towering rock walls stand tall, and a gloomy brilliance will flash across the solid walls from time to time. These high walls of the maze tell the world in this way. According to Lynch, their sturdiness is by no means as fragile as it seems.

The towering walls block the sunlight that should be shining in the central area. In order to keep it bright, the second generation has hung high-power incandescent lamps around the walls. The surrounding lighting mode dispels all the darkness here . The appearance of the lighting equipment is more or less broken. If there is no accident, these things should be the rags that the Second King picked up from the Olympus battlefield...

She seems to be particularly enthusiastic about restoring and utilizing abandoned waste products. This almost obsessive behavior is very similar to Alice's recognition of antiques.

But if you think about it, the young lady who has a wealthy family is still addicted to potato chips and games, who hasn't ordered strange hobbies.

The Second World is still busy in front of those devices. The shadow magic power behind her has turned into her extra arm, not only helping to record observations and experiments, but also operating in front of other devices. It is flexible and controllable. Almost indistinguishable from the arm of II himself.

About to enter a relatively critical stage now, II didn't pay too much attention to greet Lynch.

She just let one of her temporarily idle shadow tentacles reach over, and rubbed against Lynch's palm, as a sign that she knew that Lynch had come and said hello.

Lynch: "..."

Holding the shadow tentacles that feel surprisingly good in the hand, Lynch focused his gaze on the two energy fields.

At this time, the energy force field has been maintained by a more stable energy source through the energy supply device pieced together by the second generation. Not only that, Lynch can also see a large number of pipelines fixed on the wall leading to the top, and the end of the pipeline is connected to the A group of solar panels, those solar energy can also be converted and provided for the use of equipment.

Of course, if there are only these Lynchs, the subtleties on his face will not be enough. What makes him subconsciously pinch the shadow tentacles and cause the second generation to react is the scene in the restraining force field where the members of the Jishihui are imprisoned:

The members of the Jishi Society who should have been hung upside down on the obsidian cross were all put down, and they are now awake.

They were respectively locked in metal circular devices, and with their crazy behavior, those circular devices moved coaxially and quickly.

The energy brought by the movement of the device is transmitted to the relay, and through conversion, the energy is used to maintain the stability of the binding force field and the normal operation of other equipment.

The device that restrained members of the Society had a more familiar name: the hamster wheel.

Stopping what he was doing, Er Shi ran back to snatch back his shadow tentacles that had been "squeezed so painfully", wrinkled his nose and lost his breath.

"If you are surprised, be surprised, what are you doing by pinching my tail so hard!"

"You, a vampire, still have a tail!?"

"Can I dye my hair white and say I'm a skunk?" Glancing at Lynch, II motioned with his chin to those running wheels that brought Lynch a terrified emotion, "When they wake up, they're very different. To be honest, knocking me out all the time doesn't feel like a solution, so I came up with this idea for mutual benefit.

"Anyway, they haven't been honest, right? Why don't they use this kind of dishonesty to provide me with some energy, and they are more convenient for me to observe and collect data when they are awake. Active samples are always better than sleeping dead. samples are more valuable for research.”

"Then what if these guys are tired from running?" Alice asked curiously.

"That's easy."

The second generation took out a remote control with a large number of digital buttons on it.

She lightly clicked one of the buttons, and immediately the Jessica member inside the running wheel came alive under the stimulation of the flashing electric arc.

"The electricity is over."

Alice: "..."

Lynch: "..."

"It's actually quite fun, boss, do you want to play?"

Lynch waved his hand quickly. He felt that no matter how wicked he was, he still couldn't do this kind of thing—he was afraid that he would be addicted to electricity and couldn't control his hand pressing the shock button.

The second thought that Lynch thought his behavior was very inhuman, so he explained it.

"Hey, the degree of this electric shock won't hurt them, it's at most the level of biological stimulation, just the kind of electric stimulation that comes with those advanced vibration gadgets used by some single girls, those electric arcs just looked scary. "

Before Lynch complained about whether there was something wrong with the electric shock mode, II continued.

"And through the first stage of observation, I found that these guys have gone crazy..."

"You don't need to talk about humanitarianism because you're not human?" Alice raised her eyebrows and interjected.

"That's right, they really don't belong to humans anymore, and even the definition of creatures is a bit unsatisfactory, but what I want to say is not this."

She pulled the two of them to a piece of equipment, and a large amount of data was displayed on a broken monitor with the operation of the second generation.

The display is so dilapidated that it takes a few shots to display the picture normally, otherwise there will be a lot of snowflakes and distorted color blocks.

"Comparing the observed data shows that after these guys enter the inactive period of their brains, the chaotic cores carried in their bodies will suddenly become active. The activity of the chaotic cores not only imperceptibly erodes and transforms their bodies, but also erodes their brains at the same time. .”

Presenting the data of the most serious of them to Lynch and Alice, II sighed while pointing to those chaotic pictures similar to CT images.

"These three people's brains have undergone strange calcification and dissolution, and I think this is another reason why they have fallen into madness-their brains are no longer enough to support them to maintain normal behavioral logic, not to mention yes After thinking about it, it might be a relief to just let them die now."

Touching his chin, Lynch asked, "Then what drives them to act now? The core of chaos?"

"It should be half and half," II tapped on the CT image, "the brain maintains a certain ability to control actions, and the chaotic core is also taking over the carrier's body at the same time. It can be regarded as a model in which the chaotic core is the main body and supplemented I haven't got more data support yet, so I dare not draw more conclusions easily."

"Then you can continue to work hard, love...huh? Where are people?"

Looking around, there was no sign of Alice, and Lynch was a little confused immediately.

Just when Lynch thought that something happened suddenly, Er Shi sniffled his nose suddenly.

After taking off the mask, she narrowed her eyes, and the focus of her sight was locked on the passage leading to the club.

"I... smell the aroma of braised pork!"

Lynch: "..."
