Chapter 1779: Chapter 1776: Escape

“No wonder the Black Tower is so panicked, willing to take any risk to reestablish contact with S-01 and try to form a special collaboration, hoping to use the Demon’s power to handle things here.

But even if the collaboration is truly established, and the Old Kings are willing to provide some assistance.

The cost to truly handle things here is inevitable, and it won’t be small.

It may even be questionable whether the Black Tower can be preserved.

What it will ultimately evolve into depends on what actions this group of out-of-control entities will take after gaining 100% authority over the Bureau… If I were them, I definitely wouldn’t immediately clash with the Black Tower.

After all, those folks from the [Supreme Will] are not easy to deal with either.

However, this is not my concern; my goal has been achieved… Aye~ From now on, I just need to rest well.”

Han Dong is certain that being located in the “fourth layer” is absolutely safe.

According to the estimated time given by the Black Tower, it will take at least a few more years for the out-of-control entities to infiltrate here.

After reviewing the accessible materials, Han Dong proactively exited the restricted area, even crawling out in the final short segment.

Upon returning to the passage, the feeling of relief was truly comforting.

Headless leaned against the wall to rest briefly, his belly showing a rather solemn expression, evidently quite frightened by the intelligence just seen.

“No wonder the boss spends less and less time at the club… I didn’t expect the real situation to be this severe.

I was about to ask you, Nicholas, to do me a favor, but now it seems you have a lot to prepare for as well. After all, you are an important Middleman connecting the Black Tower and the S-01 world.”

As Han Dong stretched lazily in the passage,

he slowly dissipated blisters through his blood, asking, “If I’m not wrong, the favor Headless wants from me should be related to your [head], right?”

“Yes…”

“Once this matter is over, I will definitely find your head for you.”

The remaining time.

The three stayed in the Main Axial Room to rest, striving to adjust themselves to the best state.

The blister-free Han Dong even took the time to nap.

…

[Shallow Layer-Main Axial Room]

Mr. Teacher’s Fifth Incarnation still had faint growls lingering between his healed brains, reaching an unprecedented peak of hatred towards Han Dong.

Upon learning that Han Dong had escaped into the Main Axial Room, he immediately instructed all ‘students’ in the Shallow Layer to surround the Main Axial Room.

However,

The teacher did not arrange for the Fifth Incarnation to pursue them.

The reason is simple; before capturing the final control authority, B.B.C must maintain ‘surface normalcy’ as much as possible internally and ensure sufficient combat power in the Deep Layer.

All Incarnations must remain in the Deep Layer.

If a special team from the Black Tower launches a surprise attack on the Deep Layer, it is crucial to ensure that the trump cards can be activated normally.

Though his hatred for Han Dong could be considered ‘deep-rooted’,

The teacher still maintained a rare rationality; he would never let a momentary impulsiveness bring any negative impact on this great opportunity.

However…

The students in the Shallow Layer have not returned any information.

More than a dozen hours have passed, yet there is no sign of transmission from the Main Axial Room.

The students relayed the situation to the teacher via the consciousness network.

“Could it be that Charles equipped these guys with a special transmission device, allowing them to transmit directly to the area close to the door through the Main Axial Room, and they have already run away?

There’s no need to continue wasting time,

Arrange for a small group of people to continue guarding the Main Axial Room, maintaining normal surveillance operations. The rest return to your positions, and do not disrupt your ‘learning rhythm.’

“Yes.”

As the teacher slowly suppressed his inner anger, focusing on his work tasks.

Not long after.

A disturbance suddenly erupted in the Shallow Zone, with the Main Axial Area detecting a target fleeing rapidly.

When He descended his consciousness into one of the higher synchronization rate students, he was suddenly stunned, not daring to move much for a moment.

The [stairwell] in the Shallow Layer was filled with a kind of White Liquid.

Due to the presence of this liquid, the entire structure of the space stairway had been altered, with all pursuing employees trapped therein.

“This is not Charles’s power…”

Mr. Teacher forcibly sent a portion of his power to temporarily possess the student, resisting the Modeling Liquid’s restraints, chasing towards the hall area.

Only to see, Han Dong and his partners, looking relaxed, had successfully stepped out of B.B.C’s doors.

Moreover, standing beside them were two presences exuding intense auras,

The teacher could vaguely discern two quite distinct letter structures from the aura.

The [M] constructed from the White Liquid,

And the [C] formed by interlocking rings,

At this point,

Director Charles, just about to step out the door, seemed to sense a familiar feeling of being watched, stopped, and turned around.

When he looked over,

The teacher had already withdrawn his consciousness, leaving only an employee with a vacant look wandering in the hall.

[Principal’s Office of the Miniature World]

The teacher was twirling his pen, with a hand-drawn full structural map of the Control Bureau laid on the desk.

“The two original letter holders personally came to pick him up; this kid really has some background.

No worries!

Good things naturally need to be saved for last to savor. As long as our plan is successfully executed, even if the brat escapes back to the S-01 world, he will eventually become my Incarnation.”

…

In the Temporary Office of the Director.

Han Dong was recounting his experience of the visit.

When mentioning meeting Mr. Teacher, Mr. M’s eyes changed immediately, and Modeling Liquid began to ooze out, trying to seal Han Dong.

Meeting such an existence meant that Han Dong needed a deep mental detection.

However, Charles waved his hand to stop, signaling Han Dong to continue speaking.

When detailing how he evaded under the teacher’s nose, following him to tour the World Rubik’s Cube, and later joined forces with Headless to kill the Third Incarnation,

Even Charles seemed a little unsettled,

quickly reaching out to conduct a deep thought examination on Han Dong’s head, ensuring Han Dong was not lying.

Upon verifying the truth of the matter,

Mr. M heartily patted Han Dong’s shoulder, repeatedly praising:

“You really have some skills… Quite impressive! With such experiences, taking you to the [Supreme Will] later, it’ll be one more compelling story to convince those old fossils.”

Even Director Charles nodded, “Hmm, your performance exceeded my estimates, managing to eliminate the teacher’s Space Incarnation is indeed a significant contribution to B.B.C’s stability work.”

After recounting all incidents,

Director Charles, under the pretext of a thorough examination, temporarily sent Mr. M away, leaving Han Dong alone in his office.

A flick of the hand.

The red printer hanging at Han Dong’s waist was pulled back into the Director’s possession.

“You can’t take this thing away… This is Black Tower’s fixed asset.”

“Of course.”

“However, if you agree to do one thing for me, I can also turn a blind eye, quietly giving this thing to you as ‘lost property’ for safekeeping.”

“What’s the matter, Director? Please speak directly; I’ll do my best if I can.”

“Have you ever considered being my ‘successor’… Compared to creating worlds, you seem more suitable for [Control] in my opinion.”

This sudden recruitment startled Han Dong, “Haha~ This! I am quite lazy; just take my manor for example; it’s mostly staffed by my subordinates… And Mr. M has always been helping me; it’s really hard to backtrack.”

Director Charles showed no change in expression, as if Han Dong’s refusal was within his expectations.

“Hmm, I just mentioned it casually, no other meaning.

By the way… regarding the ‘visit,’ there should be one more thing you haven’t mentioned?”

Han Dong handed over the Bracelet, bowing as he delivered:

“Thank you, Director Charles, for the ‘comprehensive visit.’

The Bracelet is not a ‘guide device’ but a ‘guidance artifact’… You are well aware that returning from the Deep Layer would certainly face trouble and getting the Rotary Key is not easy.

This Bracelet serves as a spare.

If we understand the operation principle of the Main Axial Room, the Bracelet will grant us access to the [fourth layer].”

“Very clever… However, reaching the [fourth layer] is more your own capability.

Take the intelligence you saw in the fourth layer back to S-01; it should be enough to attract those Demons’ attention.”

“Thank you, Director.”
