On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Chapter 1187 Snatching people right under the nose of the King of Hell!

Elizabeth's voice was trembling.

Although she was the most fearless pirate queen in the Caribbean.

But the thought that she was about to entrust her life entirely to the man in front of her made her realize something.

She still couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine.

"Don't be afraid," Lin Zhen said, noticing her nervousness. "Trust me."

His voice seemed to possess a peculiar magic.

This instantly calmed Elizabeth's anxious heart a little.

She looked at the man in front of her, who was intently adjusting the strange instruments in his hands.

In those blue eyes, besides nervousness, there was an indescribable curiosity and anticipation.

She was really curious.

This mysterious and powerful man comes from the East.

What method will she use to break this curse from hell that has plagued her for three whole years?

"I'm going to start now." Lin Zhen didn't waste any more words.

He picked up the crystal lens that could magnify dozens of times.

He began to examine the small, black, rhomboid crystal, which was only the size of a thumb, very carefully.

After being magnified dozens of times.

The intricate and precise structure inside the crystal, like stars, was clearly revealed before his eyes.

It was an extremely complex three-dimensional network composed of countless unknown metal wires, hundreds of times thinner than a human hair.

And right at the center of these networks.

Suspended there was a core energy source, only the size of a grain of rice, shimmering with a faint red light.

"Found it." A glint of excitement flashed in Lin Zhen's eyes.

He knew that this energy source, the size of a grain of rice, was the key to the entire "Demon Contract"!

If possible, it can be safely removed from this complex network of detonation circuits without disturbing the surrounding dense network of detonation wires.

Then this so-called "devil's contract" will fall apart on its own!

But how easy is it to do that?

It's like performing the most delicate surgery on a bomb that could explode at any moment!

Its difficulty is ten times, even a hundred times, greater than when he dismantled the "Nine Palaces Linked Lock" at Xuanwu Gate last time!

"call--"

Lin Zhen took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down completely.

He knew that every step he took next would determine Elizabeth's life or death.

It also relates to whether he can glean the futuristic technological secrets of the "Nihilistic Party" from this "devil's contract".

He slowly picked up a specially made gold wire probe, as thin as a cow's hair, from the tool tray. It was something he had crafted himself.

Then he slowly channeled all his internal energy to his fingertips.

At that moment, the hand holding the probe became more steadfast than a rock.

There wasn't the slightest tremor.

Then, he moved.

The gold wire probe in his hand seemed to have come to life.

With a speed and precision that is almost impossible for the naked eye to detect.

It pierced into the interior of the black crystal with lightning speed!

The moment the probe pierced the crystal, Elizabeth felt a chilling coldness on her wrist. She instinctively tried to pull her hand back, but Lin Zhen's large, iron-like hand held it firmly down.

"do not move!"

Lin Zhen's voice was deep and filled with unquestionable authority. A fine layer of sweat had already seeped from his forehead, and his eyes were fixed on the microscopic world under the crystal lens without blinking.

It was a world beyond the imagination of mortals, filled with intricate beauty and death.

Countless metal wires, thinner than spider silk, crisscross to form a complex three-dimensional maze that is so intricate it makes one's scalp crawl.

The golden probe in his hand was like a top dancer performing a breathtaking dance in this labyrinth of death.

It must, without touching any of the detonation circuits, precisely navigate around layers of obstacles and finally reach the tiny, rice-grain-sized core energy source at the very center of the maze.

The difficulty involved is completely beyond the comprehension of humankind.

This is not just an extreme test of skill and eyesight.

It is also the ultimate test of one's mind and will!

Time seemed to freeze at that moment.

The entire workshop was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Only Elizabeth's increasingly rapid heartbeat due to extreme tension and fear, and Lin Zhen's steady breathing as solid as a mountain.

Although Murong Yan was not present, her heart seemed to be closely connected with this place through some kind of mysterious connection.

She sat behind the imperial desk in Qifeng Pavilion, holding a memorial from the Ministry of Revenue in her hand, but her beautiful phoenix eyes had long since lost focus, staring blankly in the direction of the workshop.

She didn't know how long she had been sitting there.

An hour?

Two hours?

Or longer?

All she knew was that when the first rooster crowed outside the palace, and when the first rays of dawn shone through the window into the empty and cold bedroom.

Her heart, which had been hanging in suspense all night, was in her throat.

Did you make it?

Or... failed?

She didn't dare to think about it anymore.

……

Inside the workshop.

Lin Zhen's forehead was already drenched in sweat.

His handsome face, due to prolonged periods of intense concentration, turned as pale as paper.

But his hand holding the probe remained as steady as ever.

It is as stable as an evergreen pine tree growing on a rock.

at last!

After a long and arduous process of "threading the needle" that lasted for several hours.

The extremely thin gold wire probe finally bypassed the last layer of detonation circuit without any major incident.

Successfully, we reached the tiny, rice-grain-sized core energy source located at the very center of the maze!

"call--"

Lin Zhen let out a heavy sigh of relief, feeling as if all the strength in her body had been drained away.

But he knew that now was not the time to relax.

Because the most crucial, and also the most dangerous, step has only just begun.

What he had to do was to destroy the internal structure of that energy source in an instant using the tip of the probe.

Let it lose all its energy in an instant.

However, at the same time, we must not allow this energy to explode violently due to a momentary loss of control!

The force and timing involved must be precise to one-thousandth, or even one-ten-thousandth of a second!

If it gets even a fraction too much, the crystal will explode, and both of them will perish.

If even a fraction is missing, the energy source cannot be completely destroyed, and all previous efforts will be in vain.

This is practically dancing on the edge of a knife!

Snatching people right under the nose of the King of Hell!

“Elizabeth,” Lin Zhen’s voice was hoarse, “it might hurt a little next, so bear with it.”

"Your Highness...you...please come!" Elizabeth gritted her teeth, her beautiful face filled with determination. "Even if I die, I'll accept it! To die by your hand is better than to die by that traitor Barbossa!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lin Zhen laughed upon hearing this. "I never intended for such a beautiful woman like you to perish like this."

"You still have to keep your life so you can be a teacher for my future child."
