Bulwark of Light

Chapter 478 The Teacher's Message

Dongzhou, Metropolitan Area.

The night on the river beach was as quiet as ever.

A woman in red and white sacrificial attire held sweet potatoes and ate them in small bites.

This is the best food she has ever eaten during this period of time.

Perhaps because of the need to "dissipate", the last meal is often the best... Chu Ling said silently in his heart.

So, eat slowly, and slowly.

The two walked along the river bank quietly, and finally Chu Ling found an old but clean wooden bench, sat down, and the two cuddled together to watch the river world The lights went out one by one.

Thousands of words are silent.

Gu Shen felt the slight trembling of the woman in his arms.

Like a cat shaking its hair.

That is actually the flow and overflow of source quality...

The "Prayer Technique" of Shrine Mountain has reached its limit.

Chu Ling's physical body is about to burn out.

At night, in Yinghai District, someone lit fireworks, and the distant sky burst into flames.

Chu Ling looked at the fireworks in front of him.

She seemed to understand something, smiled softly, and murmured: "It turns out that the feeling of 'death' is like this..."

Chu Ling raised his palm.

The gold thread wrapped around the fingertips spilled out uncontrollably.

From this moment, Chu Ling can no longer use divination, because she is losing her body, and losing her body means that she can no longer pay the price of spying on fate.

Chu Ling was a little emotional.

Regarding the feeling of "death", Tie Wu put it quite vividly, but he seems to be only half right.

Chu Ling stretched out her palm silently, like a camera, and tried to capture the night sky with fireworks blooming in the distance of the frame. This was the last picture she left for herself before "death"... It turns out that death is really like fireworks.

It's just that her death is more like a scene where the word "firework" is separated.

Dispersed like smoke.

Withered like a flower.

It's a slow process... When the fireworks are over, so is she.

The two people snuggled up on the bench became one person just like that.

Gu Shen looked at the red and white sacrificial clothes scattered and stacked on the bench, the faint fragrance still lingered in front of his nose, and the girl who went south with him had already disappeared in the long night.

His expression is a little complicated.

Gu Shen stretched out his hands to pick up the scattered sacrificial robe, and then a small orange cat's head emerged from the robe.

"Meow."

The orange cat's eyes were full of confusion.

It doesn't understand why the smelly girl who hugged him just now disappeared all of a sudden?
……

……

"Gu Shen!"

The night on the river beach was not peaceful for too long.

A familiar voice sounded from behind, Gu Shen hugged the orange cat and looked back.

old acquaintance.

"New year?"

He looked at the man wearing a motorcycle helmet, who walked a little unbalanced because of his top-heavy feet, and couldn't help but laugh.

After a long absence, Hu Danian is still the same as before.

It's just that when he pulled off the helmet forcefully, Gu Shen knew he was wrong.

Hu Danian has long flowing hair, but with a tight brown motorcycle suit, it looks a bit like...

Gu Shen was thinking about adjectives.

Hu Danian laughed vigorously, "Tell me loudly, do I look like a majestic lion now!"

"No, it's more like a bear in heat."

Gu Shen sighed.

He stood up and gave Hu Danian a symbolic hug.

Reunion.

The New Year is still that New Year.

"The headquarters said they have something to find you...but your 'spiritual link' is closed to the outside world."

Hu Danian scratched his head, and said: "Madam and Mr. Cui provided your location, I thought it would not be difficult to find you, so I set off... No, this night, you leave this person to watch the moon ?”

Gu Shen smiled wryly.

Apparently, Madam and Mr. Cui knew that they and Chu Ling were traveling south.

So they didn't bother themselves.

It's just that... Hu Danian, an idiot, doesn't know the news.

"Hey wait, it's weird."

Hu Danian glanced at the bench and saw a set of women's skirts, then looked at Gu Shen with a strange expression, "You won't..."

"Ugh……"

Gu Shen sighed leisurely.

What a headache.

It's troublesome to explain this outfit...

He stretched out his hand, motioning Hu Danian to get closer, then tapped out a wisp of blazing fire, hitting Hu Danian's brow.

Than explain.

Gu Shen chose to directly erase this "bad" memory in Hu Danian's mind with blazing fire.

Crisp and efficient.

Having just met, before he had time to exchange pleasantries, he knocked him down, Gu Shen felt a little apologetic in his heart.

But... not deep.

After all, this is not the first time Hu Danian has been treated like this.

"Brother, you'd better get a good sleep."

……

……

Banner building.

Gu Shen pushed open the door of the meeting room on the top floor. As he expected, a small emergency meeting was going on here. Several of his acquaintances were present, including Lu Nanzhi, Cui Zhongzhong, and Nanwan MP Chen San.

"Just you?"

Lu Nanzhi looked at the unexpected guest, took a sip of coffee with a smile, and asked, "Did Miss Chu come with you?"

Of course she's here...and looking at you.

Gu Shen smiled, resisted the urge to say the previous sentence, and said softly: "She's going back first."

"Actually, the headquarters doesn't want to disturb your vacation."

Senator Chen looked at his wristwatch with a sincere expression, and said slowly, "It stands to reason...you should be on a sweet vacation at the river beach, right?"

"If no one sends the coordinates, it's really sweet now."

Gu Shen pulled up a chair and sat down, turned around slowly, smiled and said, "Mr. Cui, don't say that you accidentally let Hu Danian see the coordinates...I'm afraid you are the only one here who understands the character of that idiot. .”

Senator Chen understood at this moment why Gu Shen came to this building.

This is the result of Cui Zhongzhong sending someone to "please".

"Although the two congressmen said that they don't want to disturb you, I personally think that it is still necessary to disturb you. It is more appropriate for me to do this kind of thing."

Cui Zhongzhong folded his hands and fingers, and did not deny his actions, but looked at the big screen, and said calmly: "After all, the news from Beizhou this time may be related to your teacher..."

Gu Shen's expression became serious.

Dongzhou has now entered a short period of stability and stability, and the two regions of Nagano and Dadu have extremely suitable "rudders". In this situation, there are nothing more than two things that need to be notified by the headquarters.

Either there is something wrong with Kiyotsuka Mausoleum.

Or, it involved Beizhou's teacher.

The super-large disaster area in the fortress of Phiyue City has been expanded for a whole year. In the past year, the Queen of Beizhou has chosen to tolerate the expansion of the disaster area with great courage.

But it's a pity... There has never been any news of the teacher in the disaster area of ​​Phi Yue City.

"Fifteen days ago, a team of investigation legion set off from Gubao Fortress."

Cui Zhongzhong said slowly: "This team is under the command of General White Lizard, and each team member is an elite in the investigation legion. The mission this time is named 'Maze No.30' in the deep sea database."

above the screen.

An area is enlarged.

That is the map after the Gubao Fortress went north. From the area outside the giant wall, there is almost a huge fog. It is a "land of disorder" engulfed by extraordinary source matter and covered by black holes.

Even the [Deep Sea] cannot extend beyond the giant wall.

For so many years, human beings have been able to perfect the map outside the giant wall little by little only through their own exploration... In this fog, a narrow and thin curve snakes around.

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes, stared at the map, and recorded it in his mind.

He noticed that the end point of this map seemed to be a snow mountain canyon.

"The task of this elite team is to find out the correct way out of this canyon..." Cui Zhongzhong said calmly: "It's just that the Beizhou military has determined that this mission has failed."

"mission failed?"

Gu Shen frowned.

"After leaving the giant wall, [Deep Sea] could not provide assistance, but the Beizhou military's investigation corps has a sealed item that can sense the 'state of life and death'... On the date of the original return trip, the extraordinary person of this team Life status, all changed to death."

Gu Shen understood Cui Zhongcheng's meaning.

[Deep Sea] can't provide help, and the information outside the giant wall needs to be brought back by the extraordinary team.

And every exploration may face the situation of "losing everything".

Once the whole army is wiped out.

Then the investigation legion in the huge wall needs to make adjustments.

"That sealed item is called 'Book of Life and Death'."

At this moment, Gu Zhi, the gray-clothed old man who had been waiting quietly beside Mr. Chen, suddenly said, "Every transcendent who leaves the giant wall must be registered in the 'Life and Death Book'. The so-called registration is Leaving your own blood. The spiritual imprint of each extraordinary person is unique, and the "Book of Life and Death" can form a reaction with it... Theoretically, if the spiritual imprint is not obliterated, the extraordinary person is still alive."

He has participated in the task of the Great Wall of the Northern Continent Survey Corps.

And the injuries on his body were also suffered at that time.

"So...the erasure of these people's spiritual imprints is enough to prove that they are dead."

Cui Zhongzhong continued: "After the news of death was confirmed in the book of life and death, [Deep Sea] judged that the mission of 'Maze 38' had completely failed, just when the investigation team was about to send the next team to carry out the mission of 'Maze 39'... There was an accident."

A picture appeared on the screen.

That was the fuzzy picture sent back by the Beizhou military.

A man covered in blood was lying on a stretcher... Gu Shen remembered the face of this man, he was the captain of the six-member team.

"Hong Zhong, a superman of the spiritual department, with the ability [Red Dice], the strength of the ninth level in the deep water area, and serves as the captain of the seventh elite team of the Investigation Corps."

Lu Nanzhi looked at the man on the screen and said calmly, "He came back alive."

This is an accident.

Gu Shen fell into silence.

Chu Ling, who returned to Zero Lingyao's mental space, also fell silent.

"This is impossible."

Chu Ling thought for a long time, and gave his own answer: "Aside from all unreasonable points, fifteen days are not enough just to return to Beizhou from the mission target point."

Not to mention, this is a team that encountered an unexpected situation.

"Don't be in a hurry to be surprised, because there is one more incredible thing..."

Lu Nanzhi said: "He insisted that he saw the 'oasis' and saw other survivors in the 'oasis'. As evidence, Hong Zhong handed over an item to the Beizhou military."

"It was a broken piece of sawdust..."

On the screen, a piece of purple sawdust was continuously enlarged and enlarged again.

"Through trace analysis and breath detection... [Deep Sea] preliminary calculation results show that there is a 67% possibility that this piece of sawdust came from Zhou Jiren's cane."
