Chapter 35 - Chapter 35: The Second Master

The internal structure of Hyperion is quite sci-fi.

After Lucas entered, it was like walking into the future world. The steel walls were so smooth that there were no signs of assembly, and the bright corridors were filled with greatness and righteousness.

For someone accustomed to darkness, and flashing emergency lights.

There's something strange about all this.

Keep going along the established path.

Not to mention meeting anyone.

Lucas didn't see a single moving creature. The interior of Hyperion seemed empty.

Walking and walking.

Lucas came to the first three-way intersection.

Because of his previous reincarnation, he was knocked unconscious by Theresa when he came here. He didn't remember the road or anything, so he could only choose a direction at random. However, before leaving, he deliberately left a mark.

This is also to avoid getting lost.

Until we came to the second three-way intersection.

A voice came from Hyperion's speakers.

"Captain, there are dangerous creatures in the passage ahead. Please stop and continue along the left path."

"Danger? I'm going to a dangerous place."

Lucas curled up the corners of his mouth, and without thinking, he headed straight towards the passage in front of him.

Hyperion's speakers fell silent.

For the time being, it is difficult to distinguish friend from foe.

Lucas would not believe a mere electronic sound.

Is he a friend or an enemy?

You have to see it with your own eyes to know.

Several minutes passed as they walked, and Hyperion's loudspeaker reminded him several times that there was danger ahead.

But Lucas had no intention of stopping at all.

soon...

A familiar voice sounded from behind.

"Evil disciple, why are you here?"

Hear this.

Lucas was shocked, his legs went weak and he subconsciously wanted to kneel down, but he soon realized that something was wrong.

"Master must be in the training grounds right now, right? And although this voice sounds similar, it lacks a certain flavor. Hmm... not as cold as the Red Kite Immortal, but rather a bit... brisk?"

"Could it be..."

Lucas suddenly thought of something.

Turn around.

What came into view was a woman wearing a black cheongsam, with white hair and red eyes. She did look very similar to Hua, but she was not the Red Kite Immortal.

This is the white-haired version of the Herrscher of Knowledge!

"Is this girl here too? I thought she wasn't at St. Freya's Academy... but I didn't expect she'd be at Hyperion."

"Could it be that the safe zone outside Hyperion is the territory of the Herrscher of Knowledge?"

"Hmm... very likely."

Lucas's brain experienced a super storm.

The Herrscher of Knowledge frowned her delicate white brows and asked, "Why don't you speak?"

This is the first time I have encountered the Ruler of Consciousness.

For a moment, Lucas really didn't know how to respond.

Think about it.

Lucas thought it would be better to use the same method he used against Hua to deal with the Ruler of Consciousness and see if it would work.

My knees went weak.

Someone knelt down without any shame.

"Master, please accept my disciple's greetings."

Lucas, who was sitting at the foot of the ground, startled the Herrscher of Knowledge, but she didn't show any abnormality. Instead, she said calmly, "You evil disciple, don't think I'll forgive you just like that. And... what I'm asking you... Tell me, why did you come here, and what is this place?"

"This is Hyperion. I came in out of curiosity, but I didn't expect to meet Master."

Lucas was a little confused.

Since the Herrscher of Consciousness appears here, it means that she must be related to this place.

Why is this so?

"Sure enough...there's something wrong with Hyperion." Lucas, who was sitting down, had a glint in his eyes. "Finally...after dying so many times, I finally found it."

"Hyperion? Hiss... I do have some impression of him, but... I think the master is traveling around the world."

"Forget it, it seems there is a little problem with my memory."

The Herrscher of Knowledge didn't think too much about it. She stretched out a hand to cover half of her face and said, "Then... now the question is back to you."

The woman with white hair and red eyes had murderous intent flashing in her eyes.

Next second.

The Herrscher of Consciousness reached out and grabbed Lucas's face, just like in the game when she caused trouble in the Destiny Organization and grabbed Otto's face.

Use gentle pressure.

Lucas's body was lifted up by the Herrscher of Consciousness, and he felt like his jaw was about to be crushed.

The pain spread throughout the body.

"Damn... It seems that Hua's method didn't have much effect on the Herrscher of Knowledge. She's still concerned about that matter."

As for which matter?

Of course it was the Seven Disciples Devouring Master five hundred years ago.

God knows what's going on in this world. Things that happened five hundred years ago can still be connected to myself.

Fortunately, Lucas in the setting is not one of the Seven Disciples.

If he is really one of the Seven Disciples.

Maybe the Ruler of Consciousness has already killed him.

"I've never understood why...why did things turn out like this? Why should I forgive you? It's really unbelievable."

"But now that I see you, I understand. I really... still can't forgive you..."

"Evil disciple, or rather... Never mind, just go and die."

The Herrscher of Consciousness looked a little annoyed.

That being said.

But the woman with white hair and red eyes in front of him did not kill him.

Of course Lucas would not sit idly by. He quickly waved his hands and made faces to indicate that he had something to say.

The Herr of Consciousness certainly noticed.

His expression changed.

The Herrscher of Consciousness finally released the slender hand that was holding Lucas.

"Say whatever you want to say. Considering our old friendship... your master is generous enough to give you a chance to say your last words. Evil disciple, you should be grateful."

"Then thank you so much..."

Lucas rubbed his face. He thought he was going to be killed by the Ruler of Consciousness on first sight.

Unexpectedly, he survived in the end.

"No... I'm not sure I'll survive. It's obvious that this Herrscher of Knowledge isn't right either. If my last words don't move her, I'm certain to die."

"Quick...quickly think about what happened five hundred years ago."

to be honest.

Lucas didn't know much about the incident of the seven disciples devouring their master five hundred years ago. He only learned some of the details from the Book of Cang Xuan.

The self in the background is not one of the seven disciples.

Instead, after the seven disciples devoured their master, he luckily found the seriously injured and amnesiac Red Kite Immortal.

Then he was accepted as his disciple.

As for what happened in the middle.

This led to Hua and Cang Xuan's book calling themselves evil disciples.

I don't know about that.

Both Hua and Cang Xuanshu kept silent on this matter and were unwilling to reveal any information.

Perhaps today we can dig out what happened five hundred years ago from the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Lucas pondered for a moment. Seeing the other party stamping his feet impatiently, he immediately said, "Master, I didn't mean it. I just wanted to help you recover your memory. And at that time... Master must have been very happy too."

"happy..."

The vein on the Herrscher of Consciousness's forehead bulged.
