This Lord is Very Scientific-Chapter 145 - 121: The Mysterious Tower

On the battlefield.

Lin Ke truly understood the meaning of following that day and formally broke through to the fourth level as a Knight.

Just as Lin Ke thought he felt the gaze of that mysterious presence, in other words, just "glanced at," the battlefield suddenly went still.

Lin Ke’s inner emotions steadied, and he instantly knew that the "mysterious presence’s gaze" was indeed not that simple.

Betting was right!

The battlefield was frozen, Lin Ke’s thoughts were as usual, but his body couldn’t move.

Looking at the Legendary Giant Snake opposite, it seemed to be the same.

"I wonder how long it will last... Speaking of which, what is the principle behind freezing the body like this? Controlling neuronal activity through bioelectromagnetic waves? But if that’s the case, shouldn’t thoughts also stop?"

Lin Ke started daydreaming.

Just as these thoughts settled, Lin Ke heard a slightly irritable voice.

"Little Snake, go back! Legends must not appear."

As soon as the voice sounded, Lin Ke saw the Legendary Giant Snake transform as if it was dough ready to be kneaded, shrinking from large to small, finally turning into a point, and disappearing on the spot.

This... the legend, gone?

Before Lin Ke could think more, he felt his body become like dough ready to be kneaded...

What the hell?!

Just as he thought this, he felt his body spinning madly, everything around him turning either kaleidoscopic or pitch-black at times.

His body, as if bungee jumping, experienced intense tearing and weightlessness that made Lin Ke unbearably painful.

It seemed like a moment, or perhaps a long time had passed.

He couldn’t help but let out a scream, like a shy girl surrounded by seven or eight exuberant men: "Ahhhhh..."

In that instant, all sensations vanished, and Lin Ke felt as if he was lying on the ground.

His eyes met a bright scene, yet Lin Ke was still shouting, "Ahhhh... Ah, cough cough."

When his sight returned, he saw that he seemed to be in a room, with seven or eight people staring at him with wide eyes.

He was still going "Ahhh."

"Cough cough, where is this place?" Lin Ke asked somewhat awkwardly, initially feeling no embarrassment, but the way those people looked made him feel embarrassed.

He realized that his scream might have been somewhat seductive?

"Get up quickly, the master wants to see you."

At this moment, someone among them spoke.

This was not the time for hesitation.

Lin Ke knew that the mysterious presence must be extremely powerful, and if he screamed and demanded to leave, something bad might happen.

So he hurriedly got up from the ground and looked up.

This was an extremely delicate-looking girl with fair skin, and her ears and tail had fur that looked extremely smooth... Wait, ears and tail?

Is this a Cat-man?

But unlike Knicks or the Mountain Duke’s retainers, who walked upright like furry beastmen, this was something else.

Lin Ke raised an eyebrow, "May I ask who your master is?"

The Cat-man girl didn’t speak, just motioned for him to follow.

The others dispersed, and Lin Ke noticed that none of them were human like him!

Some had scales under their chins, some had overly long arms, and some had tails on their rears.

Almost everyone here was a beastman!

The key was that Lin Ke was unsure just how powerful a force it would take to instantly remove a dignified legendary giant snake and bring him here.

So he didn’t ask much, just got up and followed.

The room looked simple, with stone platforms everywhere, next to which various "people" were busy away and paid no more attention to Lin Ke after his earlier yelling.

Upon further inspection, Lin Ke discovered that all sorts of strange things were placed on the platforms, and it seemed these people were researching these objects.

In front of one was a plain piece of wood, in front of another was half a dark red tail, and there were leaves that were screaming and stones that wouldn’t stop bleeding...

All sorts of bizarre and strange things!

Is this really a research institute!?

Lin Ke couldn’t help but want to look around at everything, but the Cat-man ahead urged him again, "Please hurry."

Lin Ke quickly caught up.

This building should also be a castle, or rather, a tower.

Upon leaving the room, Lin Ke could see countless stairs going up and down, with some people moving about on them.

This cylindrical tower was very tall, and the interior was spacious, Lin Ke estimated its diameter must be two to three hundred meters, with a cross-section bigger than the football field at his school in his previous life.

Moreover, the interior was not only bright but also had a gentle breeze blowing, making it very comfortable.

Looking up, he couldn’t tell how many floors there were.

It must look like a magnificent building from the outside!

Lin Ke marveled as he followed the Cat-man to the stairs.

"Hold my hand." The Cat-man extended a fair hand, looking at Lin Ke, "Then, empty your mind."

This Cat-man’s race was different from Knicks and their kind. Knicks, if lying down, would be no different from a large rabbit.

Whereas, apart from the ears and tail, this Cat-man seemed no different from humans.

Of course, it only seemed so—Lin Ke hadn’t seen her whole body.

Holding the Cat-man’s hand, she led the way on the stairs as if she were a mother leading her child.

At the moment of stepping onto the stairs, Lin Ke felt his feet enveloped by a gentle breeze, and a warm voice came to his ears:

"Please state the address."

Lin Ke: ???

This???

"Zero." The Cat-man spoke.

As soon as the words fell, she lifted her leg, pulling Lin Ke up the stairs.

What surprised Lin Ke was that the moment he stepped onto the stairs, he lost control of his whole body, which was taken upward at great speed.

The entire body seemed controlled, quickly ascending wrapped in a gust of wind,

"You can also choose to walk freely, but the Tower Spirit’s help is the most convenient and fastest." The Cat-man ahead was also very quick.

Lin Ke instantly understood that his state was an effect added by the Tower Spirit of this tower!

It really was convenient and fast, just slightly uncomfortable... Lin Ke felt his legs moving quickly, yet without any sensation of muscle fatigue, which seemed to be a form of enhancement.

If one were to break free from this controlled state, it wouldn’t be difficult; just a thought would suffice.

Who knew how this Tower Spirit was created, it even sounded a bit like artificial intelligence, maybe he could create one in the future at Azanen’s place.

As he pondered, Lin Ke had followed the Cat-man up dozens, if not hundreds of floors, and even he had lost count of how many floors they had ascended.

Occasionally, someone would brush past them, all moving with the Tower Spirit’s assistance; none were walking by themselves.

Eventually, Lin Ke seemed to reach the highest point, the pinnacle of the tower, along with the Cat-man.

Zero being at the pinnacle was normal, but Lin Ke was a bit expectant. What exactly was the mysterious presence? Could it also be some beastman like the Cat-man?

Continent Inspector?

Naseng Master?

Duty Officer?

Or something else?

"Go ahead." The Cat-man said and then left Lin Ke, rushing back, looking quite busy.

"Thank you!" Lin Ke thanked her and then inspected the door in front of him.

It was a metal door, devoid of anything on it, with a somewhat rustic feel, and seemed very heavy.

Lin Ke stepped forward to knock, but the door opened by itself.

"The master is waiting for you." The Tower Spirit’s voice sounded in his ear again.

Lin Ke didn’t hesitate and immediately walked in.

The inside was spacious, but seemingly empty, though there were many cabinets, stone platforms, and boxes, suggesting many things were stored here.

"Wait there! Let me finish this stupid task first!"

An irritable voice came from inside, leaving Lin Ke at a loss, especially because it was followed by a less softly spoken mutter:

"That fool Wu Mian, does he have no brains? Always causing trouble..."
