Chapter 389 Rookie and Famine
This is the thirteenth day of Wang Jixuan's retreat.
Zhou Zhengde stared at the middle-aged uncle in the room through the one-way glass window.
There was a middle-aged aunt wearing a baggy hospital gown who was enjoying a massage service from two maids.
Although it is one-way glass, there is also a curtain inside.
And this is not a prison cell, but a villa on the surface, nearby is the general headquarters of the D5 comprehensive theater.
Zhou Zhengde raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.
He actually feels that the world is full of unfairness.
His daily work is so hard, and he only gets six and a half hours of sleep every day; the uncle in front of him doesn't have to do anything, but now he enjoys super-standard treatment from human civilization. Before, he was just an engineer who was good at fishing.
After running here for half a day, he might as well find a place to sleep peacefully.
The sound of high heels clicking could be heard from the side.
Zhou Zhengde crossed his arms and turned his head to look.
The visitor was relatively familiar to him. He was Shen Qionglin, who had just returned from the underground. He was petite but had outstanding proportions. He was also considered a popular person in the headquarters in recent times.
"Professor Shen," Zhou Zhengde greeted with a smile.
Shen Qionglin nodded slightly, put his hands in the loose pockets of his white coat, and went to the glass window to look inside.
She said: "Don't worry, the progress of this experimental individual fusion is normal."
Zhou Zhengde smiled and said: "I'm not worried about this. This is just a branch of our many technological lines. Professor Shen's psychic armor is now equipped with six assault brigades, which is huge for us. promote."
"The role of spiritual practitioners cannot be ignored."
Shen Qionglin said:
"You came here to ask about Teacher Wang's current situation?"
"Well," Zhou Zhengde said, "I'm a little worried about him, and this information is top secret and I can't check it. I thought you just came back from the inner earth three days ago, so I came here to take a look."
Shen Qionglin said: "Don't worry, he has always been very good. He will be the focus and core wherever he goes."
Zhou Zhengde raised his eyebrows.
Professor Shen seemed a little unhappy when he heard what he said.
Zhou Zhengde asked: "Did he say when he would be back?"
"I didn't mention this," Shen Qionglin said, "He just said that he was in seclusion, and together with Gao Huating and Emina, it was said that he wanted to practice double cultivation."
Zhou Zhengde perked up: "True or false?"
"It should be true."
Shen Qionglin smiled:
"Now that he has a demonic heart, he won't feel any burden even if he commits murder or arson, let alone a relationship between a man and a woman.
"How is the situation now?
"I just heard them say that the Blade Beast is ready to move again.
"Presumably, that's why they asked me to bring the four puppet assistant coaches here in advance."
Puppet assistant?
Zhou Zhengde really hasn't heard this top-secret news.
"What is that?"
"A relic of ancient civilization that resembles a fully automatic machine," Shen Qionglin raised his glasses, "It's amazing that they have not shown any signs of decay after hundreds of thousands of years in the Cloud City, but when they leave the Cloud City The capital began to rust immediately...I am now worried about whether they can work smoothly for three months."
Zhou Zhengde glanced at his watch.
"Okay, I feel relieved knowing that he is fine. I have a meeting later... Is there anything I need to do privately? Professor Shen doesn't have to be polite to me."
Shen Qionglin asked: "Didn't Xiang Tiantian come with you?"
"I am here more for official duties, and she is protecting that fortress."
"Okay," Shen Qionglin said with some regret, "the snacks she made are pretty good. If you want to come over to visit this new spiritual practitioner next time, you can bring some of her snacks."
"No problem at all."
Zhou Zhengde turned his head and looked at the uncle again.
The latter was changing his position and began to watch some precious video tapes from the golden age of mankind.
Zhou Zhengde asked in a low voice: "Do you think he could risk his life for mankind?"
"Who knows," Shen Qionglin said, "Why did you choose him? I have to ask Ms. Emina about this. It's probably just a chance."
Zhou Zhengde felt depressed when he thought about this.
"Brother Wang helped me improve my physical condition twice, but I still can't resonate. Maybe this is my fate."
"Hmm," Shen Qionglin said, "What you get by luck will eventually be marked with a good price by fate. Only what you get by your own efforts will not be taken away easily."
"Okay."
Zhou Zhengde shook his head.
Although it is regrettable, it is not a big deal. In different positions, they are all contributing to the survival of mankind.
Shen Qionglin said: "You can convey this to the top management of D5. If the Blade Beast attacks again, please be sure to let me get the news as soon as possible before the war begins."
"Okay," Zhou Zhengde nodded solemnly without asking why.
He didn't say or ask any more questions, and looked at the leisurely middle-aged uncle a few more times.
He is the successor of Wanda's core circuit, which was just determined not long ago and has not been made public yet. It is only 'stored' here as a secret weapon.
According to Emina, fusion with the core circuit will be very painful, and this pain will last for about five to six hundred days and nights;
But look at this uncle's appearance...
The painful smile was a little too rippling.
…
at the same time.
Within the Arctic Circle, the human city is still brightly lit.
Aunt Dragonfly stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with her arms folded, watching the lively parade on the ground.
People are protesting, protesting for lack of food.
There are two pieces of soft bread on the desk behind Aunt Dragonfly. This is the basic material support that psychics like them can get.
The famine is getting worse and worse.
Aunt Dragonfly doesn't know whether this should be considered a natural disaster or a man-made disaster.
She happens to be one of the officials in charge of material distribution in the Psychic City, so she is naturally one of the people who knows these things best.
How to say;
Now they are eager to crush a piece of steamed buns, mix it with sea fish meat, and make ten fish meat steamed buns...
In order to solve the current food shortage problem, Aunt Dragonfly has done a lot.
Including but not limited to, increasing the number of greenhouses, improving agricultural electricity consumption, introducing excellent grain varieties cultivated in the fortress, etc.
But all this takes time;
If the food gap is not closed within twenty days, hundreds of thousands of people here will really starve to death.
The extreme cold environment in the periphery also determines that the crowd cannot move on their own. If you go out as refugees, you will be engulfed by the extreme cold very quickly. There are no supply points in the periphery.
Nowadays, although it has not reached the point of exchanging children for food, some unknown corpses have appeared in the corners of the city, with a lot of flesh and blood missing from the corpses...
Aunt Dragonfly sighed.
There was a knock on the door.
"Enter."
Aunt Dragonfly frowned slightly because she noticed a somewhat unfamiliar breath and a familiar breath.
And this familiar smell made her a little disgusted.
The door to the room opened, and a man and a woman stepped inside.
The man was naturally Meng Jin, wearing his signature golden suit and bowing politely to Aunt Dragonfly.
Meng Jin said warmly: "Is Minister Mai looking at the scenery?"
"If the anger and powerlessness of the people can be called scenery, then I am indeed appreciating these."
Aunt Dragonfly said calmly:
"Deputy Commander Meng is here, I wonder what the reason is?
"Could it be that Deputy Commander Meng negotiated with the military about new sources of food?"
"I don't have this ability."
Meng Jin also sighed, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes:
"I didn't expect that the Psychic City could be defeated so easily... All we had to do was close the food channels and use some poor excuses to tell us that there was a famine in the fortress.
"Then they broke the contract openly.
"It's a pity that the blade beast meat cannot be eaten, otherwise it would be a good opportunity next."
"Good opportunity?" Aunt Dragonfly asked with a frown.
"The Blade Beast is taking action."
Meng Jin smiled:
"It is expected that within two to three days, the blade beasts will launch a major raid, and we have detected traces of a large number of blade beasts mobilizing.
"They are going to conduct a large-scale operation towards the D8 integrated theater.
"The four movable pillar blade beasts, plus the two pillar blade beasts that are rapidly increasing their awakening level, will form six pillars of combat power."
"Why?" Mai Dragonfly asked, "Isn't the Blade Beast afraid of Wang Zheng's demonic energy?"
"We don't even know this."
Meng Jin shook his head:
"But I want to remind Minister Mai that the black storm is the enemy of our psychic city.
"You are now a senior official of the Psychic City..."
Mai Dragonfly's eyes became sharp: "I'm going to correct you, Black Storm is the enemy of your ruling faction."
Meng Jin's face looked very cold for a moment, but soon he smiled and remembered the reason why he came.
"Come," Meng Jin raised his hand in invitation and behaved in a gentlemanly manner, "Let me introduce to you, this is Minister Mai Dragonfly, the famous Aunt Dragonfly, a representative of the Natural Sect, and a close friend of Black Storm."
Then Meng Jin used his sexy bass and said with a slight exaggeration:
"To put it irresponsibly, Auntie itself is a high mountain in our spiritual capital.
"The greater the influence of Black Storm, the more stable her position will be."
Aunt Dragonfly sneered and said calmly: "Perhaps you should change your thinking and think about how to ask Black Storm for your life; the two spiritual cultivators have already reconciled with Black Storm, do you need me to remind you again?"
"Of course not," Meng Jin pointed at the girl he brought.
Aunt Dragonfly looked at the girl.
Wearing a pure white dress, she probably had the strength fluctuation of an A-level awakened psyker. She seemed to be exuding a strong affinity from the inside out.
A beam of holy light seemed to envelope her, bringing blessings from those empty gods.
This girl's appearance is also among the best, no wonder Meng Jin is so attentive to her.
Fancy it?
Meng Jin said: "This is Miss Wan Linqian, she will be your deputy from now on."
"There is no shortage of people sent to monitor me. Go report to the secretariat next door."
"Okay," Wan Linqian said softly, "Please take care of me, Minister Mai."
Meng Jin smiled and said: "You can go and report from the side. Don't be nervous. We are all our people here. We psychics just have political differences... I will discuss a small matter with Minister Mai."
"Well, thank you, Brother Meng."
Wan Linqian said sweetly.
Meng Jin showed a satisfied smile.
He likes to hear this title.
After Wan Linqian left, Meng Jin's smile faded at the speed of light and she stared at Aunt Dragonfly.
"Mai Dragonfly, I have no intention of directly conflicting with you, but you'd better restrain yourself."
"uh-huh?"
The aunt held her swivel chair with both hands and looked at Meng Jin with a smile:
"Deputy Commander Meng can't stand it anymore?
"As the current situation develops, the collapse of the ruling faction is a foregone conclusion."
Meng Jin said coldly: "Why don't you sign the protein machine purchase plan? Do you want to see more people starve to death?"
Aunt Dragonfly smiled and said: "I can think of what you want to do with my toes. I'm afraid the role of the protein machine is not just as simple as mincing fish."
"Insects, animals, these are all sources of protein."
"So does the human body."
"We are here to save people."
"You are just trying to save those who support you."
"That's better than everyone starving to death here!"
"It was you and the War Alliance who had a disagreement, and you insisted on plundering the scavenger camps! The War Alliance cut off the food entrance to let us understand how the scavengers survive!"
"Stop pretending," Meng Jin said coldly, "This is the last time I ask this question. You'd better complete this signature as soon as possible."
Aunt Dragonfly did not flinch: "You can liquidate me at will."
Meng Jin nodded, turned and left.
Mother Dragonfly breathed a sigh of relief.
She clicked her tongue and tangled her fingers in her somewhat messy long hair, moving it back and forth anxiously.
Auntie now hates her excellent perception ability;
She could always clearly hear the cries of the dying.
Ding ding.
A crisp ringing sound came from the drawer.
Aunt Dragonfly took out her own special contact device, and the familiar avatar on it made her feel a little more at ease.
[Big Peony (human loyal minister): Auntie, how is the situation now? 】
[Mai Xiaomei (working cow horse): It’s getting worse and worse. The ruling faction is also facing huge pressure now. I thought they didn’t care about the lives of civilians. 】
Ding ding.
[Big Peony: Well, I'm asking about the situation of the deployment of blade beasts. Has the war started yet? I am now inside this airtight ancient civilization site, and I am worried that the commander-in-chief will report the good news but not the bad news. 】
[Little Maid Mai: I’m promising.]
[Little Maid: Why do you all go to a place like that? Am I out of touch with you? I am still here and feel uncomfortable for getting food. 】
[Big Peony: Famine in the Psychic City, right? Maybe you can ask the Commander-in-Chief. The Commander-in-Chief has just obtained a batch of ancient civilization technologies, including how to remove the violent psychic energy from the flesh of bladed beasts.
.This is a technology I specially selected and can be promoted.】
Wheat Dragonfly cheered up.
She wanted to get the phone right away, but her rationality quickly made her sober up.
This should not be done with too much fanfare.
The ruling faction of the Psychic City will not be grateful for the charity of the human military, they will only feel that it is what they deserve.
[Miss Mai: Thank you for reminding me. This is of great help. I will ask the Psychic City to buy this technology back in the future. By the way, how is Wang Zheng doing? 】
[Big Peony: The dual cultivation of three people has just ended. Xiao Huating has withdrawn from the battlefield. She is already a weak practitioner. The dual cultivation with Emina is in full swing. ]
Wheat Dragonfly blinked, suddenly feeling very regretful.
Wang Daochang is so open-minded in his heart.
Fortunately, she thought Wang Jixuan was an upright and upright guy! She was too embarrassed to speak last time!
[Big Peony: Hee hee hee, don’t get me wrong, it’s a serious dual cultivation. If a war breaks out, please send me a message in time. Just a simple message is enough. Xiao Huating said, the sir will be out in the next few days.
close.】
[Miss Mai: I understand.]
【Big Peony: My little sister is so good.】
laugh.
Aunt Dragonfly rolled her eyes and stuffed the contact back into the drawer.
She crossed her arms and paced back and forth. She couldn't wait to buy the technology, and the price the Psychic Power could offer was only for these so-called high-end combat capabilities.
On the other side, at the peony place.
She jumped down from the spire, landed lightly on the ground, and rushed back to the palace complex where Wang Jixuan was.
There, two beams of pure white light rising into the sky were slowly approaching.
None of them knew what was going on inside, and Gao Huating was also confused and couldn't understand the operations of Wang Jixuan and Emina.
Inside the two beams of light, Wang Jixuan and Emina touched each other with their hands, and streams of colorful rays of light rotated back and forth in their bodies, using their arms as bridges to transport them back and forth.
Both of them were in the same state of mind.
Chapter completed!
