Chapter 186 Dawn Flames [Seeking Guaranteed Monthly Tickets~]
After slightly checking the old instructor's condition, Wang Jixuan breathed a sigh of relief.
It's nothing serious, not a big problem.
The black shell is just brain atrophy, and the remaining 'components' in the body are on the verge of collapse.
He thought he would have to notify Ling Tong to prepare a memorial service later to mourn his biological grandfather.
Because he had previously considered how to help Commander-in-Chief Fu Jian extend his life, Wang Jixuan was already prepared for this situation.
He pulled out a blank talisman paper, bit his fingertip, squeezed out blood, and inscribed a talisman on the paper, sticking it on top of the black shell's head.
The black shell's rapid breathing immediately smoothed out a lot.
Just some means of solidifying the soul.
Wang Jixuan looked up at Shen Qionglin, who had already opened the front of her helmet, carefully observing the black shell.
"A very old cyborg mech," Shen Qionglin briefly analyzed, "His organ failure should be caused by drug stimulation, probably beyond saving."
"What do you mean beyond saving?"
Wang Jixuan said earnestly and nonsensically:
"Little girl, you've only superficially learned a little of the spiritual cultivator's skills, and you already think you know the answers to all the problems in the world? Your attitude is problematic."
"Okay then," Shen Qionglin didn't refute.
Wang Jixuan's spiritual sense watched everywhere: "This corpse can be given to you for research, but you have to help kill the remaining A-level spiritual power users, and the crystal cores must be given to me after the research is completed."
"I accept this fair exchange model."
At this moment, the flying sword vibrated gently, circling Wang Jixuan a few times.
Shen Qionglin looked at this flying sword, the bright eyes behind the helmet… were very bright.
However, she was smart enough not to ask too much.
Everything must first improve mutual trust, only with mutual trust can more information be given to each other.
Wang Jixuan's spiritual sense swept across the entire field, just in time to see the maid corps solve the third pseudo-S-level spiritual power user, and Mudan, who had regained her hands, was rushing towards this side.
"Go and help," Wang Jixuan urged Shen Qionglin, "Try to reduce our casualties as much as possible, this is also a good opportunity for you to gain everyone's favor."
Shen Qionglin asked: "Do you need me to help you? I sense that you are very weak now."
"No need."
Wang Jixuan placed the black shell on the ground, and transmitted a message to Mudan to come and carry the black shell, specially instructing Mudan:
"Don't let them mess with Instructor Shell, if the talisman on his head falls off, call me immediately.
"He can wake up after a sleep, and I will free up my hands later to help him solve the trouble."
Mudan quickly agreed from a distance.
Wang Jixuan looked at Shen Qionglin, who had put on her armor, a thought flashed in his mind, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he formed a hand seal, and shallow ripples appeared on the ground.
In front of Shen Qionglin, Wang Jixuan merged into the ground and disappeared directly.
Genuine Earth Escape!
Shen Qionglin stood there for a few seconds without moving, then turned and rushed to the nearby area where the battle was still going on, cooperating with the peak maid corps to begin sweeping the battlefield.
Daoist Wang, who deliberately showed off his methods, appeared in a corner of the first floor of the fortress.
He found a quiet area, sat down with a thud, gently exhaled, and then smiled.
He can defeat the enemy without using demonic techniques!
The sense of honor of being a righteous cultivator has finally returned a little!
He swallowed a Blood Qi Pill, set up a Spirit Release Formation, and quickly absorbed spiritual energy.
There is no big problem with the black shell.
Although brain atrophy is indeed a bit tricky, the soul is temporarily unharmed, and Wang Jixuan has nourished the black shell's brain with spiritual energy.
This symptom is different from the stagnation of Qi in Ling Tong and Deep Sea's brains before.
The black shell's condition is due to excessive use of drugs, coupled with the aging of its own organs, leading to its impending death.
What Wang Jixuan said lightly was that, in fact, there are only two conventional ways to save the black shell.
First, directly refine the black shell as a treasure, allowing its soul to become a spirit body, and continue to fight with the black shell's body.
Second, use pills.
Only an life-extending pill is needed to allow the black shell to extend its life normally, restore the brain to health, and then supplemented with the method of solidifying the soul, living for more than ten years is not a problem.
In fact, there are third and fourth ways…
For example, let the crystal core carry the soul, similar to the Red Serpent, and then load the crystal core on this mechanical body.
That would belong to some unorthodox ways.
Wang Jixuan's cultivation was low before, so he had no choice. Now that the problem can be solved by normal methods, then…
He wants to be an upright righteous cultivator, so as not to be questioned by the Heavenly Realm after ascending in the future.
'Yes, these unorthodox ways should be used as little as possible, but if it is unavoidable and the situation is urgent, using a little bit, the Patriarch should not blame me either.'
Wang Jixuan discovered today that his understanding of the blade beast crystal core is still too little.
The special situation shown by this Jin Gu Steel really opened his eyes.
He pondered slightly and decided to take the second path, which is conventional and has no psychological pressure.
Wang Jixuan has seen the black shell's memory.
This old instructor is not a good person in the traditional sense. He is a follower of Fu Jian, helping Fu Jian eliminate many opponents, and also killed other generals in order to seize power.
But…
Wang Jixuan really doesn't want to comment.
He is just a passerby in the mundane world, and now he is too deeply involved. It is certainly good to be chivalrous, but he must also think about how to 'dust off his sleeves and leave' after the matter is over.
Daoist Wang clearly remembered that when he was young, his master had told him such a story…
At that time, the master had just established his foundation and went down the mountain to practice. He encountered bandits blocking the road and committing murder. The master rescued the family, but he didn't expect that one of the young men would become a great general of a country in the future.
When the master met this young man again, his cultivation had already formed a golden core. Backed by a large sect, he was carefree in the world, and saw this general order his subordinates to raise their knives and slaughter a city.
After the master recognized this general, he felt uneasy for a long time.
The master did not know whether his good deed that year was right or wrong. Or perhaps kindness itself has no right or wrong, and cultivators should not be contaminated with the karma of the mundane world.
Wang Jixuan turned his mind and looked at the choices he was currently facing.
The problem he encountered was completely different from the problem his master encountered back then.
As long as the black shell continues to live, it can protect more ordinary people. For this reason alone, Wang Jixuan can take action to extend his life.
'Other things have nothing to do with this poor Daoist.'
Having made up his mind to refine pills to extend the life of the black shell, Wang Jixuan looked up at the flying sword hovering around him.
He took the flying sword, let the flying sword turn into a sword pill, took it back into his palm, and a pleasant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
This is what you call a magic weapon!
The orthodox way to use a flying sword is like what he showed before:
[Give enough mana, and the flying sword can burst out enough power. The higher the quality of the flying sword, the higher the power limit, and the less mana is needed to exert the same power].
He is only in the early stage of Returning Void Realm, and has not yet reached the Condensation Core Realm. His own total mana is insufficient, and the spiritual energy in the air is relatively scarce. It is still too difficult to directly solve S-level spiritual power users with a flying sword.
But his thinking is open…
Flying sword plus Water Control Technique can send a strong anesthetic into the spiritual power user's body;
Flying sword plus a little pure demonic energy can pollute the spiritual power user's soul and make them go crazy;
Then if, flying sword plus a nuclear bomb?
Hiss!
He can entrust his mind to the flying sword, fly out of the range covered by his spiritual sense, let the flying sword drag the nuclear bomb into the complex underground area, drop the nuclear bomb, and the flying sword retreat.
There is no need to worry about electromagnetic interference, the only trouble is that there will be blade beasts blocking the way.
Daoist Wang's Yuan Soul little man patted his forehead.
Wonderful!
When his cultivation is higher and he can control the sword hundreds of miles away, he can try it!
…
Without external support, the ground garrison of Fortress 76 quickly completed the encirclement and suppression of this group of Beast God Sect spiritual power users after Jin Gu Steel died.
These spiritual power users did not choose to escape, but fought to the end.
Very similar to blade beasts.
After cleaning up the last few mimic blade beasts, the entire surface military camp fell into silence at midnight.
The troops in the outer expansion area moved into the main camp to cooperate in rescue and battlefield cleanup.
Zhou Zhengde didn't sleep at all that night.
He couldn't sleep either.
He is not a combatant in the establishment. Only after the war ended was Dongfang Zhenghong allowed to come to the surface, along with the soldiers and autonomous machines, to rescue the wounded, collect the corpses, and hold a hasty funeral for the fallen before dawn.
After the alarm was lifted, Wei Na also brought medical personnel from Zhongcheng to provide support.
At dawn, on the edge of the Sari Desert.
Zhou Zhengde stood with his hands in his pockets, covered in blood, watching the rows of neatly arranged corpses of soldiers.
The soldiers' information has been registered, and the fortress will not treat their families and relatives badly.
This kind of thing has happened too many times in the fortress era. No one knows whether the next one lying there will be himself. Zhou Zhengde is already a little numb to the word death.
The flames were lit, and the accelerant was burning fiercely.
Wei Na clasped her fingers together in prayer.
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
Zhou Zhengde asked in a low voice: "Who are you praying to?"
"I'm not praying to anyone, I'm an atheist, I'm just blessing the fallen heroes," Wei Na asked, "Has our border been breached? Why is there fighting here?"
"Some information that cannot be disclosed to you, well, this is also news I just got… it's a group of traitorous spiritual power users."
Zhou Zhengde watched the dancing flames:
"They call themselves the Beast God Sect and regard the twelve pillar-level blade beasts as the twelve beast gods. They are the ones who have been causing trouble on the border recently."
After the Mind-Devouring Worms were discovered, they abandoned the Spirit Energy Capital's system and directly defected to the Blade Beasts.
This time, we eliminated about one-tenth of their total numbers here, and wiped out roughly thirty percent of their elite forces.
The Blade Beasts also modified them, making them even more destructive.
You really shouldn't be telling me these things.
Wei Na placed her hands in her white coat pockets and said softly:
"Don't harbor unnecessary anger. You're a middle-aged man now. This is a life-or-death struggle, a clash of civilizations. The civilization that survives to the end is the victor."
"I know, I'm just…"
Zhou Zhengde sighed:
"It's just too stifling.
They are wantonly destroying, and we can only passively defend. They destroy whatever they want to destroy.
We've clearly been working so hard to survive… I'm sorry, I don't know what nonsense I'm spouting.
But if I could, I would dedicate my entire life to making them pay the price, I must make them pay the price, I must…"
"Alright, stop muttering. This only creates a sense of powerlessness in the face of an unchangeable situation."
Wei Na patted Zhou Zhengde's elbow with her right hand:
"You're just a captain, and in all likelihood, you'll become a politician in the future. Whether or not we can defeat the Blade Beasts is a matter for the entire human civilization. Just do your job well.
However, if you want to become a better captain, you need to forget that you're the Commander-in-Chief's grandson."
Zhou Zhengde said helplessly: "I'm already trying my best to forget it."
"Actually, you haven't. You're always thinking about problems from that identity, instead of from the perspective of the Law Enforcement Team Captain or the Security Team Captain. That's why people always say you're immature."
Wei Na glanced at Shen Qionglin, who was walking towards them, and sized up Shen Qionglin's figure.
Shen Qionglin had already taken off her armor. She had also participated in the rescue and treatment efforts, completed several simple surgeries, and was now also watching the flames before dawn.
Wei Na said: "I won't disturb you… Your new girlfriend has a good figure, but she's not very tall."
"Uh, don't misunderstand. She's not my new girlfriend. She's a very talented professor that Wang Zheng recruited from the Spirit Energy Capital."
"Wow, Wang Zheng's new girlfriend."
Zhou Zhengde looked behind Wei Na, his eyes lighting up: "Huh? When did Major Ling Tong get back?"
Wei Na's body instantly tensed, her neck like a rusty bearing, slowly turning her head, only to find that there was nothing behind her.
She kicked Zhou Zhengde hard and turned to walk away.
Zhou Zhengde didn't dare to grimace in such a setting, and had to maintain a solemn demeanor.
Shen Qionglin, with her hands in her pockets, walked up to Zhou Zhengde and said softly: "A very boring relationship dynamic."
Zhou Zhengde's mouth twitched: "You hurt me three times with one sentence."
Shen Qionglin was puzzled: "Three times? Ex-girlfriend? Boring? That should only be twice."
"She also said that sentence before, when we broke up."
"Oh, then I'm sorry."
"It's okay. Romance is just the most insignificant thing in my life. I've already decided to dedicate my life to the future of human civilization."
"I want to see Wang Zheng," Shen Qionglin said. "You should have already received my physical examination report. You're Fu Jian's grandson? No wonder you're one of his best friends."
Zhou Zhengde immediately said: "No, I'm just the captain of the local security team."
"Oh, then I'll ask someone else."
"You can also ask me," Zhou Zhengde instantly abandoned his reserve. "What do you want to ask? He should be resting now."
Shen Qionglin asked strangely: "Doesn't he need to come here to participate in the memorial service?"
"No," Zhou Zhengde said softly. "He can prevent more people from lying in the flames before dawn. That's his value and contribution. He doesn't need to care about these formalities and procedures."
"Ask him how I can quickly gain his trust."
Shen Qionglin took out a data device from her pocket and handed it to Zhou Zhengde:
"I've finished processing Jin Gu Gang's body. This contains a detailed autopsy report and a general experimental report.
I want to keep Jin Gu Gang's core for further research. There are some special structures inside, which require his approval.
Also, does he still take students? I heard others call him Teacher Wang. If he does take students, what are the criteria?"
Zhou Zhengde frowned in thought.
He keenly sensed that Shen Qionglin was now very interested in his close friend, Wang Zheng.
He just didn't understand in what way this interest manifested.
Although he really wanted to gossip a bit, Shen Qionglin seemed like she wanted to dissect Wang Zheng… And she came from the Spirit Energy Capital. He had to be wary…
Suddenly, Zhou Zhengde heard Wang Ji Xuan's voice transmission:
"At eight o'clock in the morning, have Shen Qionglin come to the seventh floor. I'll take her on a tour of the fortress.
She's a very talented researcher and will likely be useful to the D5 war zone in the future."
Zhou Zhengde immediately had an idea.
But he didn't directly agree to Shen Qionglin. At this moment, he showed the shrewdness of a politician, saying to Shen Qionglin:
"Wait for my news later. You can go get some sleep. If Wang Zheng allows it, I'll notify you to go over."
"Oh."
Shen Qionglin responded, not saying anything more.
Her pupils reflected the constantly flickering flames here. Her astonishing memory allowed her to recall a list she had inadvertently glanced at before.
She had never been to the front lines. Iron Wall Fortress had always been stable. She was experiencing the large-scale deaths and injuries of humans facing Spirit Energy users for the first time.
"Why burn the bodies at dawn…"
She murmured in confusion.
Not long after, on the seventh floor of the fortress, in Uncle Tai's workshop.
Uncle Tai, along with two assistant associate professors and senior engineers, controlled the engineering machinery, placing a man-sized bronze furnace in the corner of the workshop.
Wang Ji Xuan, who was sorting out spiritual herbs next to him, narrowed his eyes slightly.
Beta, the Tree Man with a swollen and painful scalp, was playing video games with Sha Man, enjoying Wan Xiaoqi's equipment.
After the last alchemy furnace explosion, Wang Ji Xuan summarized that the main reason was that the furnace was too simple and the medicinal pills showed signs of upgrading, which the furnace couldn't suppress.
So this time, he directly used the top-level furnace that could be obtained at this stage!
In addition to refining longevity pills for the Black Shell, he also wanted to create some pills that could help the cyborg armor improve its strength, and just happened to use the Black Shell to test them.
Medicinal ingredients meet, and energy takes form; The Dao exists in the void, merging with nature.
A spiritual pill swallowed into the abdomen, Only then do I know that my fate is not determined by heaven!
Open the furnace, refine the pills!
This time, he absolutely cannot explode the furnace!
