Dawn of the Grey Tower
Chapter 1648
"Buzzing -" the sharp, high-frequency voice hovered and echoed in Jianqi''s ears. Tinnitus, a physiological response, did not appear much in Jianqi''s life before, and was mostly accompanied by dizziness and blurred consciousness.
Now, his mind is sober, his vision and sense of balance are not affected, and only the constant beeping in his ears seems to be sending some kind of warning. The sound of the beep is not big. At least it can''t let Jianqi miss other sounds, but it has no weakening trend and continues to invade the nerves of the sword seeker.
If someone else comes, it''s hard to avoid feeling uneasy and anxious at this time. Jian Qi can still keep his face as usual and breathe steadily. It''s rare to have this concentration alone.
But it is not enough to rely on concentration. What concentration can bring is the ability to think normally in an unknown environment. What can really break the current situation is still thinking and intuition.
If, among the cheese people, the grey robe itself depends more on thinking, and Atta and Kellas prefer intuition, the sword seven may be the more balanced person in the middle.
This is not surprising, because he is neither a knowledgeable mage nor a goblin with mysterious senses. He is an ordinary person. Even if he has Qi in his body, which is some incredible energy to ordinary people, he has not changed much in form and style.
This made him not try to analyze the cause of his tinnitus, nor did he find the source of the abnormality by feeling. He just approached Weiya''s research room step by step on the basis of being cautious and careful, and kept calm to the greatest extent while paying attention to the surrounding situation.
According to his memory, the research room should not be far away, but it is still quiet here. On the way, Jian Qi also deliberately looked for people''s traces. According to his speculation, if all mages lose consciousness in a moment, someone should fall in the corridor or room, but there is no one. There were no people in those unlocked rooms.
This is somewhat unreasonable. Maybe those mages happened to receive some orders and hid into the room and locked the door. Maybe this is not the research institute where he was just now. Maybe he fainted like cheese. Everything in front of him is just his own dream.
Perhaps, this is the suspicious array arranged by the other party, the purpose is to make him anxious about the above possibilities, so as to destroy that calm. But what if you break your composure? Can it be said that at the moment of his panic, something will attack him? Or what makes cheese unconscious will also make him unconscious? Jian Qi didn''t know, and he admitted that he didn''t know.
Many people use many metaphors to explain thinking, but the sword seeker agrees with an example mentioned by cheese. Thinking is a vortex. When a person continues to explore along a train of thought, he will be unconsciously involved in it, fall into deep agitation and cannot be separated immediately.
Of course, in a more popular way, this is called cutting corners. Ordinary people do things at the tip of an ox''s horn, and it''s easy to screw things up. What about people like casters? There is no lack of such examples in history, because they are too attached to a single path, which leads to serious consequences. The devil is surprisingly good at using this thinking pattern to control people''s actions, so it can also be said to be dangerous.
Jian Qi doesn''t know what kind of devil or thinking trap. His way of thinking is naturally different from that of cheese. This difference makes him not focus too much on a certain idea, at least for now.
This is not directly related to the cultivation of Qi. There are many examples of martial artists who study Qi who are too persistent and finally become saints and demons. If you have to say, this may be due to the too long solitary life of Jianqi. If there is anything he has learned in this journey, which has occupied most of his life, it is gain and loss. Empty handed, this word is especially experienced for Jian Qi.
People are empty handed. No matter how tight you hold something, it will not grow on your hand and become a part of you. As long as you release it, it will still fall. Money is like this, treasure is like this, so he can accept his personal weapons so calmly, so he is destroyed in a somewhat inexplicable conflict.
There are many unreasonable coincidences in this world. People will even be killed by stones thrown by birds in the sky for no reason. Because of this understanding, Jianqi knew that everything around him gathered and scattered like clouds and smoke, just as he and cheese were different. But so what?
I can''t eat tomorrow''s food today, and the water I drink tomorrow can''t be turned into current sweat. Gathering and dispersing doesn''t mean meaningless. Gathering and dispersing has its own meaning. Sword seven will say goodbye to everyone one day, but this does not prevent him from coming alone to explore unknown anomalies at this moment. The annoying tinnitus was also an alarm bell that made him alert. In its low sound, Jian Qi''s eyes were sharp and abnormal.
Hands out of the hallway, hands out of the hallway.
Just from the shape of this hand, Jianqi can guess what posture the owner of the hand fell to the ground. It was gratifying news. Anyway, he met the first person outside the lounge.
But of course, it could also be a trap, so he carefully leaned against the side of the corridor away from his hand, slowed down again, Feiyan and Qingfu in his hand were ready to go, and moved his sight slowly.
The corner appeared in front of the sword seeker. The man who fell in front of him looked familiar and seemed to be the mage who helped later. Judging from his complexion, he didn''t suffer any harm. Like cheese, he suddenly fainted. Along the mage''s side, some documents were scattered in the corridor, which should have fallen from his arms.
The scene was not relaxing, but there was no blood. Jianqi lifted the green talisman upside down, leaned over and put his fingers under the mage''s nose. There is nasal breathing, and it is not messy. In this case, the problem should not be big. The sword seeker stepped over the mage, and the research room was in front of the corridor.
The first thing you can notice is that the door of the research room is open. After all, the door panel has been destroyed, and the light is reflected on the wall of the corridor from the room. In addition, there are two mages in the corridor. They fell together. It is estimated that they were going forward together, but they fell down together. The evidence is that they fell forward like the mages at the corner. Only when they suddenly lose consciousness while moving, can they fall in the same direction.
So is the problem really in the research room? Jian Qi shook his head gently, and the tinnitus continued.
At the same time, he can see the cyan vein like lines slowly emerging on the green amulet, which has never been seen before. If he wants to interpret the meaning, he may need to consult the elders of the Hui nationality. However, the sword sect is far away from the horizon at this time. No matter what the strange shape on the sword represents, we should move forward now.
His shoulder leaned slightly against the wall. Jian Qi looked up at the top of the corridor, and then turned to the door.
He saw that the books on the ground had been preliminarily sorted out. He saw master Fraser collapsed in a chair. He saw a bloody chain stretching out from the invisible corner of the door frame and resting on the master''s heart.
