Collapse: Start as a Mimic Herrscher

Lu Ren sneezed. He didn’t know why he sneezed in his current state. This was as outrageous as a soul steel body catching a cold.

But Lu Ren was not interested in this phenomenon at the moment. After all, he had been under the Thames for a long time, and had encountered many phenomena that were difficult to explain by science. He was used to it and could only complain, "The ancient Egyptian god who was in charge of making the soul sneeze (referring to a certain author)."

What bothers Lu Ren now is that he has turned around this ventilation duct dozens of times. Excluding the possibility that he suddenly suffered from Syndrome 26, there is really nothing here.

He reluctantly returned to his body and froze in place.

"This is not right. Where is my body? What do you think of it, Tongzi?"

Lu Ren didn't even think about the fact that the system couldn't control his body, so how could it be used to watch over him? If anyone was to blame someone, just blame Lu Ren for having to use this method instead of being unwilling to use his knees to rub every place here.

Lu Ren: What you just said was a deliberate revenge against me!

The place was empty and Lu Ren remembered what the system had said before.

"Tongzi said there would be no problem if we come back in time, but if we don't come back in time, then there would be a problem." Lu Ren didn't know what the consequences of not coming back in time would be. The key now was to quickly find out where his body had gone.

"I just passed by my body not long ago and everything was normal then. When I passed by it again, it disappeared. How did this happen?"

Lu Ren recalled the details before his body disappeared. Because he was in the form of a conscious body, Lu Ren moved very quickly, otherwise he would not have gone around the ventilation duct dozens of times.

"The time interval between the two times was obviously not that long." Lu Ren's tone was full of depression. He sat down and looked around. It was still extremely dark.

"Wait, there's a sound nearby." Lu Ren caught a strange sound coming from the ventilation duct not far away.

Thinking that I was already in this state, a dead pig would not be afraid of boiling water, so I decided to test it.

Soon Lu Ren arrived at the place where the sound came from. The vent here was opened. Lu Ren stuck his head towards the vent, and a huge face with a wide grin pounced on him.

He took a few steps back, an ugly expression appeared on his face, and he slowly disappeared in front of Lu Ren.

"What is that? It would be great if Tongzi was here. When I find my body, I will make new demands on Tongzi. If he doesn't bind my soul, I will deduct taxes. If he binds my soul, I will also... No, what am I thinking about!"

Lu Ren came back to his senses and looked at the vent. The big face just now should be an illusion. He thought about it and didn't see any vent when he walked here before. Now that a vent appeared here, clues about his body would most likely appear there.

It has come to this point, he has no choice but to jump down and take a look. Lu Ren came out of the ventilation duct and landed steadily on the ground.

The first thing he did was to look at the surroundings. With the help of the authority of the Herrscher of Consciousness, Lu Ren was able to clearly construct the appearance of the room in his mind.

"There is indeed something fishy about it."

This seemed to be another laboratory, but it was spotless. There was an operating table on Lu Ren's left hand side, but there were several knife scratches on it.

Behind it was Lu Ren's right hand side, where there were several rows of cabinets containing unknown medicines, with strange symbols written on them.

There is an iron gate in front. Given Lu Ren's condition, the success rate of opening the gate by brute force is estimated to be zero percent.

However, Lu Ren found a switch next to the door. He thought it might be the switch of the main door, so he pulled the switch without hesitation.

But the result was not what Lu Ren had imagined. The door remained motionless, but there was a "sizzling" sound of electricity around it and the lights came on.

"The world is bright again." Lu Ren looked at the bright laboratory and felt that the invention of the electric light was the greatest thing in the world.

Although it was bright around him, Lu Ren still couldn't find a way to leave.

So he turned his gaze to the medicine cabinet. There was obviously nothing on the operating table over there, and those few scratches really didn't attract Lu Ren to investigate.

"I always feel that this scene is familiar, but I can't remember where I have seen something similar." Lu Ren walked to the medicine cabinet, opened the cabinet door, and complained skillfully.

Lu Ren took out a bottle of medicine with strange symbols printed on it from the cabinet. The glass bottle contained a colorless liquid and did not seem to have any impurities.

Lu Ren put down the glass bottle, looked at the left and right sides of the cabinet and said, "There is no note on the cabinet to remind you. The person who used this thing has a very good memory."

Lu Ren looked at the other medicines again, but there were none of them that were colorful. They were all colorless, which made Lu Ren seriously suspect that they were all the same medicine.

Master Lu was busy in the medicine cabinet but did not find any useful clues, so he had to go and take a look at the scratch.

Lu Ren first glanced at the laboratory table, where there were also several bottles of medicine, which were also transparent and colorless.

Then he observed the scratches and saw that there were dozens of them, and the object that made the scratches was extremely sharp.

These scratches are very messy and of varying depths. They don't look like they were made intentionally, but rather like they were made accidentally.

There were no clues on the experimental bench either. Lu Ren shook his head in disappointment, but just as he shook his head, he caught a glimpse of a bulge on the wall out of the corner of his eye.

This was all thanks to his eagle-like eyesight. He quickly walked to the wall and pressed the bulge tentatively.

The wall in front of Lu Ren suddenly split into two halves, and behind the wall were three unconscious people. Judging from their clothes, they were undoubtedly the missing Valkyries.

The space behind the wall was equally large, but there was no light and it was empty. The three Valkyries were tied up back to back, with cloth stuffed in their mouths to prevent them from making any sound.

Lu Ren didn't expect that he would actually find the missing Valkyrie. Although he was very happy, the current discovery was of no help to the current situation.

"With such a loud noise, why haven't they woken up yet?" Lu Ren found that the three Valkyries had their eyes closed. Even the loud noise just now did not make them open their eyes.

Lu Ren came closer to the three of them, and then he was so surprised that he could hardly speak.

"Bai... Baili Yu, why are you here too?"

Lu Ren was struck by lightning. He recalled the small bag he had seen in the laboratory before. That was the one Baili Yu carried with him.

After thinking for a while, Lu Ren planned to wake up a few people and ask them what happened and why some of them became dead soldiers.

His hand reached out to Baili Yu, but immediately he felt something was wrong.

"Why does Baili Yu seem to be sucking me towards her?"
