Although the Transcendence Organization has already sent Dean Thomas to contact Leo and Sylvia, but judging from the candidates they sent, the other party undoubtedly values ​​them and is wary of them. Otherwise, it is impossible to send Dean Thomas. This is a special member in the middle of many forces.

According to Sylvia's estimation, the Transcendence Organization should not contact them in a short period of time, and will instead observe secretly, and then decide whether they should be exposed to more core secrets.

For ordinary people, this kind of investigation period is not unacceptable, and it is understandable, not to mention that this organization has passed a message through Dean Thomas, and will provide Leo and Sylvia with all possible resources, including but not limited to experiments. materials, references, etc.

Judging from the performance during this period, the Transcendence Organization has indeed fulfilled their commitments. In the various materials related to the mysteries of the world, gods, etc. collected by Dean Thomas, the Academic City and the Transcendence Organization can It is said that it is half and half, and the Transcendence Organization also provided a huge amount of unrestricted funds to support Leo.

Obviously, Leo's reputation in the academic city makes them think that in the near future, Leo will become the dean of the academic city, so it is very necessary to invest in advance, and they even secretly encourage some scholars to create a similar future. Let Leo become the dean of the inner court and other remarks, if their vision is really realized, then the inner and outer deans of the academic city will be their people, which is also very much looking forward to them.

If Leo really wants to join this organization and want to do a career in this organization, then he will never do extra actions. He just needs to act at his own pace every day, and he will definitely get what he wants in the future. s things.

But the problem is that the purpose of Leo joining this organization is just for the secrets of this organization. He has no idea of ​​doing a career in this organization, nor does he intend to waste time waiting for this organization to end the long inspection period. He is more accustomed to taking the initiative. Strike out and get what you want.

As a result, Joan and Penny, who had nothing to do in the academy, were sent out as bait to lure some factions in the organization to jump out on their own initiative, and now it seems that the effect is very good.

Although the Transcendence Organization has very limited trust in Dean Thomas and will not allow Dean Thomas to access the most core secrets of the organization, such as the inner circle, holy places, etc., Dean Thomas can still use himself Influence, collect some information about the internal situation of this organization, such as faction information within this organization.

Just like the vast majority of ancient underground organizations, the interior of the detached organization is also full of various factions, especially their disconnected relationship with the primordial church, which makes the factional disputes within the primordial church also affect the detached. within the organization.

Among the various factions, there are naturally some radical factions. The shaman witch doctor who planted the implant for Joan came from one of the radical factions. This radical faction even proposed to Leo to study together through Dean Thomas. The implant in Joan's body, and this just gave Leo a chance to lead the snake out of the hole.

Judging from the current situation, things are proceeding as Leo expected. The radical faction first planned to use tough means to kidnap Joan, but after finding that tough means were not effective, they began to change their strategies and use Huairou's means to deal with Joann.

And Leo's request to Joan is to delay as much as possible, let them send more people to contact him, and Penny, who is secretly observing, can find the base of this faction, and Leo will be able to come directly to the door to get it. You don't have to wait so long for what you want.

As for the safety of Joan and Penny, Leo is not worried at all. Before setting off, Leo specially built a set of equipment for Joan that can maximize his Paladin strength, as long as it is not a demigod. With a powerful presence, basically no one can threaten his safety.

As for Penny's psionic talent, she has already reached the level of a third-level psionicist not long ago, and can already use some psionic auxiliary tools, and Leo also specially created a set of equipment for her. In this set With the help of the equipment, she can even display some psionic skills of a fourth-level psionicist, plus her own hunter ability, it is enough to assist Joan in secret, at least from now, it seems that the two cooperate very well. , I believe it won't be long before they will be able to find out where the secret base of that radical faction is in the Kingdom of Teresa.

In the following days, although Leo still completed various research projects step by step to accumulate his reputation in the academic city, but from the perspective of the number and quality of research projects completed every day, his main energy should have been transferred to The key to the wizard's tower is in his hand.

Dean Thomas also discovered this, so he took the initiative to come to Leo, hoping that Leo could turn his energy back to those stagnant research projects in the academic city. As for how to use the wizard's tower key, even he was curious. , but not in a hurry.

However, Dean Thomas didn't know that this mysterious item that had plagued him for many years had been completely cracked in Leo's hands in just a few days. What he needed to do now was to see if Leo's own method of using the key would work.

"Aren't you going to tell Dean Thomas about this?" Sylvia asked Leo as Dean Thomas left downstairs.

Leo shook his head and said, "I still don't know if it's effective, there's no need to tell him, let alone..." After speaking, he paused and said: "Moreover, even if the method is effective, I don't plan to take him. Go to the Wizard's Tower."

Sylvia was stunned and asked, "Why?"

"It's too dangerous," Leo replied calmly: "In ancient times, the relationship between the church and the wizard was not good. It was common to plot against each other and kill each other. In this case, the tower wizard built The wizard tower must also hide a large number of traps for defending the enemy, let alone Thomas, even if I enter it, I can't guarantee that I will be able to escape. I won't take you there, this time I will act alone."

Sylvia frowned, a little displeased, but didn't say anything, because she knew that Leo's decision was correct, although she was already a demigod, but the tower wizard faced gods. , so there must be means of targeting non-sorcerer powers such as gods in their wizard towers. If she goes together, it will only increase Leo's burden.

"When are you going to leave?" Sylvia asked concerned.

Leo replied: "Tonight."

Sylvia asked again, "Is it here?"

"Of course not." Leo shook his head, took out the triangle key, and said, "I don't know what will happen after using my method to activate this key, it may be nothing, or it may cause There is a lot of noise, so it’s better to find a remote and quiet place, and the Fuji Luo Lake to the southwest of Xuecheng is very good.”

Seeing that Leo had decided, Sylvia didn't say anything.

That night, Leo left their apartment alone, climbed over the high wall of the school city, jumped directly off the cliff outside the city, spread his psionic wings in the air, and flew towards the lake he chose.

Soon he flew over a forest and landed next to a lake that was not particularly large.

This lake was formed because an earthquake caused the cave below to collapse and the ground subsided. Because the lake was covered with a vine plant, the students of Xuecheng who came to play here gave it the name of the vine lake.

Although the area of ​​Fujiluo Lake is not very large, it is very deep. Because the cracks at the bottom of the lake are connected to the burrows below, the depth of the entire lake is far greater than that of most lakes in the Old World.

The reason why Leo chose Tengluo Lake as the test key location was because of the depth of this lake.

After jumping into the lake, Leo immediately dived towards the bottom of the lake, quickly passed through a crack in the bottom of the lake, and went directly to the underground part, and it didn't take long before he came to the bottom cave.

There are many rumors about the deepest part of Lake Tengluo, but the most widely rumored and most accepted is the rumor of a monster. This rumor is simply that a certain true **** sealed a monster underground a long time ago, and let him It was in a deep sleep, and the earthquake that year was actually caused by the monster who woke up from its deep sleep and wanted to escape from the ground. As a result, its actions caused the cave to collapse. Not only did it not escape, but it was killed by the collapsed stone above. , so there will be a monster's corpse in the deepest part of the lake.

This rumor is very old, not only accepted by the local ordinary people, but even some scholars of the academy believe this rumor, but unfortunately these scholars are disappointed, there are no corpses of monsters, not even fish, except for some Aside from lifeless rocks, the only life is some simple, fluorescent plankton.

Leo repeatedly checked the surroundings, especially the condition of the surrounding rocks, and swam to the middle of the burrow, then took out the key of the wizard tower, and secretly deduced the sequence to activate the variant map on the surface of the triangle one by one. Spirit root.

After a few days of exploration, Leo has completely solved the working principle of the key of this wizard tower, and also knows how to make the key.

Simply put, this wizard's tower key is a space fissure manufacturing device with a positioning function. As long as you find the coordinates of the subspace half-plane where the wizard's tower is located, and then activate the representative coordinate information one by one according to the preset input method when the device was manufactured. The Turing root of , will eventually open a fissure to the interior of the wizard's tower.

Although the method is very simple, it is very difficult to operate. In addition to not knowing what the coordinates of the wizard tower pointed to by the key are, the more troublesome thing is that there is a counter trap hidden in the key that cannot be cracked or removed. According to Leo's speculation As long as the exclusive code converted from the wrong coordinate position is entered once, the counter trap will be triggered, not only destroying the key, but also attacking the key holder.

It is precisely because of this that Leo did not try to unlock the key in the academy, because in case of failure, he may be confident that he will be able to retreat under the counter-trap attack of the tower wizard, but he has no confidence in protecting the academy.

However, he is not completely unsure. Perhaps when faced with this wizard tower key, even someone who is also a tower wizard will have a hard time cracking the correct way to use the key, but Leo is different from those tower wizards. , he not only has the knowledge of the tower wizard, but also has the ability of the true eye that the tower wizard has never had.

With the help of the true eye, Leo can easily see through the differences in the use of different Turing roots in the keys. By analyzing the differences in use, he can easily give those Turing roots that are often used to Selected, and then analyzed the meaning and function of each Turing root, and then divided it into a Turing root for connection and a Turing root representing coordinates, and then combined them according to the positional relationship, and finally formed Now he infers the Turing root activation sequence.

Although, in Leo's deduction, everything went smoothly, but Leo was still very cautious in the process of activating the Turing root, ready to deal with possible countermeasures.

However, his worries were obviously superfluous. When all the Turing roots in the sequence were activated, the counter-trap did not appear, and the triangular-shaped key was suspended from his hand, changing its shape like a Rubik's cube, and finally It changed from a triangle to a sphere, and the Turing radicals on the surface of the sphere were all combined into a more complex and esoteric three-dimensional radical.

At this moment, a ray of light emerged from the key and enveloped Leo. Leo did not feel any offensive power from the light, so he did not resist.

When the light completely enveloped Leo's body, Leo disappeared from the cave under the lake together with the key.

At the moment when Leo disappeared, Sylvia in the depths of the academy immediately sensed Leo's aura and seemed to have left this world, but she could no longer sense Leo's exact location, and could only feel a blur. orientation.

Leo has long ago linked himself and Sylvia's life energy through a special skill in psionic energy. This is a commonly used ability between psionicist partners in the universe. Competent couples feel each other's condition.

As for the sensing distance, it varies according to the strength of the psionicist's ability. In theory, there is no limit. For example, the sensing distance of Omega-level advanced life forms is across the star field, and weak psionicists can also interact with each other inside the planetary galaxies. induction.

This is why Leo is not worried about the failure of the wizard's tower key test, because even if he is randomly discarded by the wizard's tower key into an unknown space because of the wrong method, he can still connect with Sylvia's life energy to open up Space rift, back to Sylvia.
