Chapter 314: Outside the Trial,
the weight loss when falling from the air lasts only a moment.
Before Ronald could savor this bungee-jumping experience, his feet hit the floor again within a second.
Wait until everything is clear again.
He has returned to the underground laboratory of the [Data Research Association].
As Ronald makes his choice.
The illusion caused by the original trial was also completely dissipated very simply.
At this time, the blue magic power in the laboratory, which was on the verge of going berserk, began to quickly gather around Ronald, and then finally condensed on his palm.
When everything was settled, a book that had no response was held in his hand.
"..."
"That's true..."
Ronald looked down.
What appeared in his hand now was indeed the original book that Hal had risked conducting experiments on before, that is, what he had just seen in the trial.
——The Book of Daedalus.
It's a pity that the laboratory is empty except for himself.
Hal and Edwalk, who were also dragged into the illusion by the original trial, did not even appear here.
There is no doubt that these two magicians who once worked for the [Scroll Research Society] have failed the trial and have stayed in the trial world where no one can find them forever.
At this moment, Hughes, who was standing at the door of the laboratory, was the first to rush in.
The magician looked around the laboratory, but he could not find Hal and Advocate.
As a magician who can lead the original experiment.
How could Hughes not understand what this phenomenon meant.
Two of Ronald's former colleagues had naturally died in the original trial.
"..."
"Alas -"
Then he sighed with a complicated expression, and Hughes continued to walk towards Ronald and his pace slowed down.
At this time, Oppenheim, who was further behind, walked over slowly.
His eyes were firmly locked on the original book in Ronald's hand, and the old man immediately confirmed:
"Ronald, it seems that you succeeded."
"..."
"Fortunately, you have lived up to your fate." Ronald nodded. .
Facing Oppenheim's eyes, he handed the Book of Daedalus to him generously, and at the same time opened his other hand to show that he had nothing to hide.
"The process was a little troublesome, but fortunately I succeeded."
"It's a pity that Hal and Edwalk..."
After taking the "Book of Daedalus" from Ronald, he looked back and forth to confirm that it was the original book. , Oppenheim put on a sad expression and nodded:
"Yes, it's really sad."
"Our two loyal companions, this is how we announce our departure."
"But Ronald, you are here Were you injured during the trial? Do you need treatment?"
Ronald glanced at his hand from the corner of his eye.
The damage he suffered during the trial did not bring him back to reality.
No matter the bleeding palm or the painful shoulder, there is no sign of any injury now.
So he shook his head:
"It seems there is no problem."
After hearing Ronald's reply, Oppenheim immediately continued:
"It's fine. If there are any hidden dangers later, you can come directly to the research institute. , we will continue to help you deal with all problems."
After saying a few words, Oppenheim immediately walked out of the laboratory with the original book.
The pace was extremely hurried.
However, when he walked to the door of the laboratory, he still did not forget to make a final promise to Ronald:
"Ronald, this time is really troublesome for you."
"I promise on my own honor that I will provide the service as soon as possible." You get the reward promised this time."
"The original code is of great importance. I have to deal with some related work now. If you have any questions, just ask Hughes."
Ronald responded:
"In that case, then I'm looking forward to your good news."
"..."
After saying a few words, Oppenheim didn't hesitate any longer.
Watching Oppenheim's hurried figure leave the laboratory door, Ronald then looked at Hughes who was still in the laboratory.
This researcher...
it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was so deeply shocked that he suffered a nervous breakdown.
But compared to what Ronald saw before when he saw Hughes leading people in research.
As expected, he is still not very energetic now.
The figure sat somewhat lonely on a chair in the laboratory. The man looked at everything in the laboratory with complex eyes.
There seemed to be some memories and some relief.
Ronald quietly walked to Hughes and sat down. Then he found a less sensitive topic and said,
"Mr. Hughes, I remember that Mu Li was here before."
"Why can't she be seen now?"
"..."
"Ms. Muli..."
Hearing Ronald's question, Hughes smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"That person should change her state now."
"The school of thought she belongs to is quite unique, and it is not good to maintain it as it is now. But you don't have to worry, since I joined the seminar when I was young, that lady It's always been like this, everything is under her control."
"..."
After hearing Hughes' words, the corner of Ronald's mouth twitched imperceptibly.
He noticed what Hughes said about 'since I joined the seminar when I was young'.
If I am not mistaken, Miao Li's age does not seem to match what Ronald saw.
In the [Scroll Research Association], Miao Li is probably a very 'qualified' old member.
And think about the other person’s original text.
--"Interpretation of Dreams".
Even people like Ronald who have read the full text of this kind of original text involving psychology cannot easily speculate on the other party's abilities.
Face this reality.
Ronald could only lament the strangeness of these magicians.
Just when Ronald had mixed feelings about this discovery, Hughes, who was sitting next to him, turned his attention.
After all, he is a researcher who has experienced strong winds and waves.
In just a few minutes, Hughes had completely accepted the reality, and the expression on his face returned to the calm and steady expression he should have.
Then out of the researcher's habit, he asked Ronald:
"Ronald, didn't you successfully pass the original trial just now?"
"Although it is a bit presumptuous to say this, but out of curiosity as a researcher, I I hope you can tell me about the situation in the original trial."
Ronald quickly sensed the possibility in the other party's question.
He was about to leave the [Scroll Research Society], so he asked without much concern:
"Ask this question."
"Are you planning to continue trying the trial of this original book in the future?"
Hughes immediately shook his head:
" That's not the case."
"According to the records of our school, the environment everyone faces after entering the trial will be subtly different. Copying other people's experiences is just asking for death." "I'm asking now just to refer to
your experience. The pronunciation of 'spell'."
"..."
Hughes looked very serious when he started to explain.
After spending time with this researcher, Ronald also roughly understood the character of this magician.
So after thinking for a moment, Ronald then spoke in ancient Greek pronunciation:
"Daedalus."
"I probably still remember this word, Daedalus."
