Chapter 574

Darkness, endless darkness.

As early as when Gao Yi entered the hall, he noticed that this place where the "Ripple Masked Dance" was located in the central area of ​​the "Silver Moon".

Due to its design, only the side of the high platform where the band and the host are located have tall floor-to-ceiling windows, which can see the river view in the distance.

When the darkness came, there was only one place with a little light that was better than nothing.

The rest of the entire hall has fallen into complete darkness and chaos.

He grabbed Zheng Qiyu beside him and protected him to retreat to the base of the wall. He had subconsciously activated Gao Yi of [Adapchair Detective] and quickly began to collect information.

Most of the guests just fell into panic, yelling and grabbing their companions, looking for the nearest waiters and guards, and moving closer to the lighted high platform.

No, these people don’t matter, it depends on the key roles.

Relying on his strong observation ability, Gao Yi took in the information in the entire dance hall.

Although night vision is not possible, the increasingly sensitive hearing in the darkness can still provide the information needed.

Ma Jianai, who came on behalf of the [Dealer], was firmly surrounded by a group of playing card guards. At this moment, like Gao Yi and the others, he had already stood firm in the corner.

Based on her vigilant state, it can be roughly guessed that she was not aware of this power outage and was also very nervous.

What about the "alphabet" people?

The "C" seemed very alert, holding something in his right hand, and was looking around alertly at this moment.

Did he not know what was going on?

Looking at the "Zhihuzhe" next to the bar, the girl had already created a barrier around her body with ice, wrapping herself firmly inside.

It can be seen that she is just protecting herself.

Of course, Gao Yi also noticed that at this point in time, the silver-haired girl did not forget to drink...

I don’t know if the bartender is so high or if she needs alcohol to suppress her fear.

"What's going on? Which side did it?"

Zheng Qiqing also took out a silver badge of palm-sized hands from her wrist and asked vigilantly.

"That's the problem, I haven't seen anyone 'take it'..."

Keep the observation status high, lower the sound, and quickly switch sight.

If he hadn't been worried about the overly complicated situation on the ship, he would have to summon a few ravens to help and act as a monitor.

It’s a pity that although the “Star Colors” have certain intelligence, they can only accept high-quality instructions unilaterally and cannot reply.

Taking a step back, whether this group of alien creatures has eyes or how to sense the surroundings is still a mystery...

In the end, Gao Yi could only rely on his most primitive five senses.

In any case, this power outage is obviously not an accident. What is the purpose of this being made in the territory of [Boss]? Who did it?

Gao Yi initially believed that this should be related to Ma Jianai of the "Board of Investigation".

Either this group of [outer gods] decided to turn the table over and skip the trading session of the "Ripple Masked Dance", and use a large number of internal and external armed forces to directly rob the "Silver Moon" of the ship.

Or, it was mentioned by "C" that he attacked the man who had murderous intentions of Ma Jianai and decided to use the power outage to create chaos and take the opportunity to attack.

With this idea in mind, Gao Yi kept staring at the head of the "Investigation Bureau Armed Forces Department" on the other end of the dance hall, wanting to see if she would make further moves surrounded by poker guards.

But the fact is that during the entire power outage, even after the rest of the guests calmed down a little under the comfort of the waiter, nothing happened near Maganai.

The guests who had been in horror before squeezed onto the still-lit platform and mingled with the members of the band.

The host of the part-time chief violinist, now he acted as a part-time conductor. After stopping the performance of the orchestra, he hurriedly comforted the guests:

"Please don't panic, technical issues are being investigated. Our 'Ripple Masquerade' will ensure your safety..."

However, Gao Yi saw that the host didn't even wear Bluetooth headphones, so it was impossible for him to know that "technical problems are being investigated". This is just her comforting words.

But on the other hand, "will ensure safety" may not be considered a lie.

The armed men with triangles on their masks took out sticks from their waists, walked into the dance hall, and looked around them vigilantly.

Although Gao Yi doesn't think their combat effectiveness is strong, in this power outage environment, it should still play a more or less deterrent role.

No, not right.

Looking at Zheng Qiqing who took out his cell phone next to him and wanted to take a look at the time quietly, but failed, Gao Yi suddenly realized something.

This is not a power outage, or it is not just a power outage.

All the equipment that requires electricity in the entire "Ripple Masquerade" dance hall was completely invalid at this moment - even the headphones connected to Athens in Gao Yi's ears.

This is not just a power outage, it is some kind of stronger ability, some kind of close to rules and concepts.

Maybe [D-level personnel] can counterattack?

I figured out the reason for it clearly, and I just wanted to use my ability to track the source of this "power outage".

The lights in the dance hall suddenly lit up?

The light cut through the darkness like a blade, and the starry sky dome above was relit, bringing light back to the entire "Ripple Masquerade".

The guests looked at each other, but did not find anything unusual.

Those players who were considered troublemakers were quite cooperative and calm during the power outage.

This was natural. Gao Yi, who had never stopped monitoring several people, could confirm that the "power outage" had nothing to do with them.

So what happened just now? It couldn't be a "technical failure".

Seeing that the situation had returned to calm, the group of guests who had just been howling like ghosts and wolves, now put on airs again.

They left the various waiters and band members with disgust, and began to say things like "I knew it was nothing" and "It's funny that a group of people were scared like that".

Of course, Gao Yi clearly remembered that the people who said these words were the ones who were the most scared in the dark........

It can only be said that this is a kind of compensatory psychology of people.

"It's just a small accident. Please forgive me. With the help of the staff, I will return to my seat. I assure you that the organizer will provide satisfactory compensation for this..."

The host, who was pushed by someone in the dark, was a little embarrassed in her wrinkled jumpsuit, but her voice was still steady and professional.

But the next second, her lines were cut off by the sudden sea breeze. The portholes and floor-to-ceiling windows on the platform were all opened, and the salty air flow swept the ballroom with a kind of "panic" emotion.

Everyone present reacted belatedly and looked at the glass display case on the platform.

The eleventh auction item, the mummy that can cure diseases and hide more secrets, has been silent for some time.

And its core, the mechanical heart, has disappeared!
