Start with a kun

"Are you sure it's really it?"

The Dragon King stared at the screen displayed on the floating screen for a long time, and asked without looking back.

"Yes." Xiang Shen nodded.

What was projected on the screen in front of everyone was a photo of a dark and deep cave.

TNJ9876 is an undeveloped and dangerous cave, located in the no man's land in the northern hemisphere of Zulongxing. Because it is inaccessible, there are very few data pictures about it. There are only a few pictures left, which are still satellite pictures from decades ago.

What's special about it is that the entrance of this cave is exactly the same as what Xiang Shen saw in the messy dream just now.

The Dragon King suddenly raised his head, staring sharply at the eyes of the young man in front of him, with a very serious expression.

"This is not a joke," he said in a deep voice, "Once you get caught in a dangerous situation, I don't need to say, you know the ending, Xiao Shen, it's absolutely unimaginable."

The team leader stood beside Xiang Shen and glanced at him with a little anxiety: "Your Majesty is right, it's too risky. Now let's proceed steadily according to the original plan. Our scientific research department will work harder and wait until the end of this month. , should be able to crack the last part of the key technology... The situation has not evolved to the worst point, so there is no need to take such risks."

"But by then, no matter what you do, it will be too late!" Xiang Shen retorted.

He took a deep breath and said coldly: "I can guarantee that the scene in the dream is absolutely real. The major Zerg arms currently appearing on the battlefield, whether I have seen them or not, I am sure I saw their specimens in the dream just now. No matter how coincidental, I can’t dream of seven or eight creatures that I have never seen before, and even their appearance details are exactly the same as those in the illustrated book, right?”

The Dragon King crossed his fingers, sat on the seat, mused and did not speak.

Seeing this, Xiang Shen resolutely said: "Your Majesty, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! The team leader also told me before that what we are short of is that... that reactor, for the current Zerg. It is as important as the command center, as long as we can destroy it, even if the reversal plan fails in the end, we can buy the alliance at least half a year of precious time!"

The Dragon King looked at the excited young man, and slowly loosened his frown.

He sighed, stood up from his seat, stretched out his hand, and patted Shen on the shoulder: "I understand how you feel. But the situation has not yet been determined, and we will definitely send someone, but we must not make a big fuss Earth faction. And, if the instrument is really placed in the cave, then it must be a place protected by the Zerg Zerg. We must kill it quickly and accurately. Well, I will send a special operations team to it first How about collecting information?"

Xiang Shen frowned deeply, he still had some concerns, but at present, this is indeed the most appropriate method.

"...Okay," he reluctantly agreed, "but Your Majesty, if something unusual happens, please let me go."

"Ah Sheng doesn't want you to be in danger..."

"I don't want him to go to the battlefield either." Xiang Shen looked at the Dragon King seriously, "No one wants the other half in love to be in danger, but sometimes we have to do it."

"..."

"He wants to protect me, and I want to help him, it's mutual, Your Majesty. I'm also a man, and I don't want to wait until all the dust settles, and then regret my powerlessness and inaction. It's really that time, now All the so-called 'concerns' of my heart will be stabbed in my heart, I don't want to do this."

The Dragon King's fingertips trembled slightly.

He lowered his eyes and his throat rolled up and down, as if what he wanted to say was so difficult and difficult to say.

In the end, thousands of words turned into a long sigh of regret.

"Okay," he said, "I'll send another 300 troops, and you can go with them too. But you must obey the command's orders, follow the special operations team, and be on standby at any time, and you must not act rashly. No?"

Xiang Shen's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and even his voice raised an octave:

"Yes!"

Holding the order approved by the Dragon King himself, the boy ran away excitedly.

The team leader looked away, looked at the very worried Dragon King, and explained: "Your Majesty, where is Xiang Shen's strength, our several troops together basically can't do anything about it, you don't have to go too far!" I'm worried. Look, like the transport ship last time, didn't he manage it beautifully?"

"How can this be the same." The Dragon King shook his head.

"Then why did you agree..." The team leader was puzzled.

"Yeah, why would I agree?" The man smiled helplessly. He was clearly in his prime, but the lines at the corners of his eyes and the white hair on his sideburns made him look a little bit old.

"If Ah Sheng found out, he would probably die of anger." He said to himself.

In the end, the Dragon King avoided this topic, and instead asked the team leader: "Go and bring him all the gadgets researched by the scientific research department. Anyway, it's good just in case."

"Yes."

After the team leader left, Dragon King sat quietly in the huge study room for a while, and after a while, he grabbed a pack of soft candy from the drawer, got up and went to the small temple.

Standing in front of the memorial tablet, the man lowered his head, unpacked it, and poured the colorful gummy bears onto the plate.

...and steal every flavor.

When the last one was swallowed, he smashed his mouth, felt the sweet taste in his mouth, sighed at the memorial tablet, and complained: "Our poor son, the eyes of looking for a partner are just like his. I'm exactly the same, if Xiao Shen didn't look like you at all, I would have wondered if you had a younger brother."

After a while, he seemed to think of something again, and said with a sneer, "I've been busy with things recently, and I don't have much time to see you. It just so happens that if you have time, Ayu, help me beat up the old man of the Worm Emperor down there." Let’s have a few meals. Tell him, I’ll send them to reunite with their father and son after a while.”

"Also, my son is about to ascend the throne and get married. The marriage partner is his second son who has been licking dogs for many years but can't lick him. Ayu, you must praise our daughter-in-law more, brag to death in front of him, let The dog doesn't need to be too grateful to me."

After talking for a while, His Majesty the Dragon King, who had dreamed back to his youthful years, finally became serious, coughed, and cooled his feverish brain.

He quietly looked at the crooked characters on the tablet, stretched out his hand, and traced it lightly.

Then, the man calmly closed his eyes.

"Ayu, bless our children." He said softly, his voice was barely audible.

"But no matter what, I will never let them go."

"...I will never die."

*———*———*

"Be sure to pay attention to safety," the team leader stood in front of Xiang Shen, nagging repeatedly like an old lady, "If you encounter any unexpected situation, report to the commander as soon as possible, and then run if you can. After all, you are not professional……"

"Got it." Xiang Shen sat in the aircraft, looked at him and replied helplessly, "You have said this for the seventh time, don't worry."

"Hey." The team leader sighed heavily.

Although he was still persuading His Majesty just now, when it was time for Xiang Shen to leave, the team leader was more worried than anyone else.

His Royal Highness doesn't know about this yet, he thought to himself.

No one dared to tell Ying Sheng that the team leader knew everything without thinking about it. If His Royal Highness found out, then he would definitely explode.

But now that the front line is tight, Cao Kunxing is at stake, His Highness is already under a lot of mental pressure, how could he be distracted by other things at this time.

"Anyway, Xiao Shen, you must take care." The team leader asked for the last time.

Just after he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, hurriedly stepped forward, and whispered into the young man's ear.

"..."

Xiang Shen's eyes widened slightly in surprise: "Is there such a thing? This is the first time I know about it."

The team leader nodded heavily: "That's right. Although this is a last resort method, and you should never use it unless you are in a hurry, it is still a method, and it is better to know than not to know."

Just as he was talking, the driver in front urged: "It's time for departure soon."

Xiang Shen smiled at him sheepishly, turned around, and closed the door of the aircraft.

"You go back," he said, "at most half a day, we can definitely get this done."

The engine roared.

The aircraft lifted off slowly, and then drew a white shadow across the sky at an astonishing speed. It didn't take long before it caught up with the large army that set off 10 minutes earlier.

The team leader stood on the ground with his hands behind his back, and the corners of his white coat were raised high in the strong wind from the aircraft.

He raised his head, looked at the distant shadow in the sky, and licked his dry and white lips.

...May everything go as planned.

This operation was a standard blitzkrieg, and all the plans were finalized within an hour. There must be some omissions, but the commander appointed by the Dragon King is a special force captain with rich actual combat experience, and he is best at being flexible. He is a veteran who can truly be in danger.

After seeing Captain Liao Yuan's illustrious military exploits in the last war, Xiang Shen felt very at ease when he led the team.

It is also the first time for him to participate in such a formal military activity. The only thing he can barely touch in his previous life experience is probably only military training in college. It's a joke in front of the special forces.

So the young man was very obedient to the arrangement from beginning to end, which made Liao Yuan slightly relieved.

He has a very complicated attitude towards Xiang Shen's arrival. On the one hand, he feels that he is suspected of melee combat skills, but on the other hand, Xiang Shen's strength is also real. Zhang's trump card that can reverse the situation depends on how he plays as a commander.

Therefore, after he pondered for a while, the first order he gave to Shen was: Stand by.

"I will lead the leading troops to investigate the surrounding area. You and the remaining one-third of the people will stay in the aircraft and provide support at any time."

"learn!"

More than a dozen stealth aircraft landed slowly in the uninhabited land stretching across the mountains.

Liao Yuan made a gesture, and hundreds of special soldiers armed with weapons divided into several teams and lurked into the jungle.Xiang Shen was in the aircraft, watching nervously through the screen that they were shrinking and encircling, heading towards the target cave.

"Drip drip drip..."

The warning light inside the aircraft suddenly turned on, and Xiang Shen jumped in fright.

The investigation team outside also gave a reminder. Liao Yuan issued an instruction in the channel: "The shielding device detected that it has entered the information detection area, so there is nothing wrong here!"

Although everything was expected, Xiang Shen's heartbeat still gradually accelerated.

Liao Yuan stopped when he came to a certain high ground, the three teams converged, and the rest continued to move forward.

Go further and you will reach the cave.

The dense branches and leaves in the jungle blocked the way forward, and the soldiers began to use their weapons. Liao Yuan lay on the spot and looked down, commanding with a high degree of nerves.

So far so good.

Liao Yuan and the others carried instruments that could interfere with the low-level Zerg's sense of direction. No matter whether it was a normal mosquito or an ordinary low-level Zerg, they would not hit them.Therefore, although they were in the jungle, they couldn't even hear the sound of insects along the way.

Xiang Shen frowned slowly.

Not right.

It seemed a little...too smooth.

Without the most basic artificial intelligence, without an infrared scanner, even with a jammer, why, it didn't work at all along the way?

Such an important place, even the shadow of a low-level Zerg can't be captured!

Liao Yuan, as an experienced commander, of course quickly discovered something was wrong.

He immediately ordered the front team to stop advancing.

However, something terrible happened.

The soldiers all seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, and they didn't obey his orders at all!

Holding the laser guns in their hands wobbly, in a strange posture, they actively got up from the bunker and walked towards the depths of the dark cave!

"Squad 001! Team 002!" Liao Yuan gritted his teeth and shouted over and over again in the channel, "Please answer if you hear it! Answer if you hear it!"

"Hehehehe..."

There was a burst of deep laughter from the earphones, followed by a sharp and piercing disconnection sound!

"drop--"

The screen goes off instantly.

Xiang Shen was terrified.

Everyone's heartbeat stopped for half a beat. Liao Yuan took a deep breath and gestured for an immediate retreat.

But when he turned around, the screen clearly showed the man's expression of shock mixed with fear.

The picture is forbidden at this moment.

A dead silence.

The rest of the soldiers started to stir slightly, but Liao Yuan's pre-arranged plan and the strong psychological quality formed after hard work on a daily basis made these soldiers calm down quickly, and immediately launched the aircraft and prepared to leave the scene.

On the seat, the boy clenched his fists and suddenly closed his eyes.

In the end, he opened his eyes, looked at the soldiers in the cockpit who were trying to start the engine over and over again, and contacted the Dragon Palace headquarters, and said coldly to the long-haired young man standing behind him, without looking back:

"...You let them go, I'll go with you."

one second.

Countless laser guns were aimed at the youth.

Cheng Yuming looked at these soldiers who were facing an enemy, and sat down beside Xiang Shen with a relaxed face, stretched out his hand, and affectionately helped him put his messy hair behind his head.

Then, he tilted his head to look at the boy, and laughed sullenly.

"Aren't you in Cao Kunxing?" Xiang Shen asked blankly without looking at him.

After Ying Sheng separated from him last time, he led his troops to Caokunxing to support them. The coalition forces also sent back a video of Cheng Yuming's on-site command. Now almost the whole universe believes that the Zerg is planning to break through the surface one by one.

But who knew, he would actually appear here.

At this time, it is impossible to come in from the outside on the long-guarded Ancestral Dragon Star. The 24-hour starship patrol can smash you to pieces even a meteorite.

So there is only one explanation - he never left from the beginning!

"Oh, you mean that substitute?" Sure enough, Cheng Yuming held his chin and smiled softly, "It's just to divert the tiger away from the mountain. But I didn't expect so many fools to take the bait one after another. Heh, that prince is really stupid. But Shen Chen, you can't tell us apart?"

Xiang Shen didn't bother to talk to him.

He raised his hand, motioning for the soldiers to lay down their weapons.

Cheng Yuming came to the door himself, showing that he has the confidence to hold himself and is not afraid of the soldiers here at all, so the only way now is to follow him into the game and see the tricks!

Xiang Shen was thinking nervously in his brain, his surface was as motionless as a mountain, and his gaze never let go of the slightest change of expression on the young man's face.

Cheng Yuming stood up, following the young man's movements, the long silver hair slid down from his shoulders like water, making the already pale skin on his face almost transparent.

"Shen Chen," he said softly, "come home with me."

Xiang Shen raised his eyelids and looked at him coldly, his gaze was as sharp as a knife.

"Stop being disgusting there," he said, "just go and stop talking nonsense."

"Okay." Cheng Yuming smiled inclusively.

This is the most disgusting thing about Xiang Shen. He lives in his own world, always aloof and does not treat people as human beings. He talks about affection, but in fact he only has an obsession with a strong desire to reproduce in his heart.

Under his signal, a gap slowly opened up in the encirclement, and the two stepped off the aircraft one after the other.

Cheng Yuming gave a rare approval: "Not bad, very obedient. This is a good soldier."

Xiang Shen followed behind him with a sullen face. The two walked through the jungle. After entering the cave, he immediately stood still and asked, "Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Now he began to doubt whether that dream was suspected of man-made manipulation.

Cheng Yuming seemed to know what he was thinking, smiled, and denied: "I don't have the ability. Shen Chen, it's because we have a good understanding."

With Xiang Shen's expression of eating a fly, the young man stretched out his hand and pressed hard on a raised wall in the cave.

"boom--"

As if the sky was collapsing, the entire huge cave began to vibrate.

After a moment, the shaking stopped, and the wall flipped over, revealing an irregular opening.

And the scene in the secret room is exactly the same as that in Xiang Shen's dream!

"You..." Looking at this scene, Xiang Shen turned his head to look at Cheng Yuming in doubt, "What do you mean?"

"Shen Chen, let me introduce you." Cheng Yuming did not answer, but instead walked up to the giant machine, looked up at it proudly and said, "This is the essence of the wisdom of the Zerg race, and it is also the most important thing in the history of the universe. Greatest invention ever!"

"It can realize the directional transmission of non-destructive energy in the true sense. The scope of this energy includes everything - I can use it to control the activities of the Zerg, and I can also use it to create the most powerful destructive weapons. Create black holes..."

"Impossible!" Xiang Shen subconsciously retorted, "Do you know how much energy it takes?"

Even he, a person who didn't know much about physics since he was a child, knew that creating a black hole?This is something that can only be done by the collapse of a star!

Cheng Yuming turned his head, his eyes widened, his face flushed with a morbid excitement.

"You're right, Shen Chen, generally speaking, it's impossible," he said with a smile, "but you were born for this."

Xiang Shen's body froze suddenly.

His hands and feet were cold, and his mind was in chaos. He could understand every word of Cheng Yuming's words separately, but when they were put together, it was like a strange language from another world.

"So," he said with difficulty, "the reason why I... can swallow so much, but get hungry so easily is because..."

"Because you gave us all your energy." Cheng Yuming nodded, confirming his guess.

"Give up struggling, dear," he patted the instrument with a smile, "Do you feel it? It is absorbing the energy in your body... The closer you are to it, the faster it absorbs it. Shen Shen, I I know what you're thinking, but if you want to devour it, it's absolutely impossible."

Xiang Shen shook twice, leaned against the cave wall, and managed to stand still.

Indeed, as he said, since entering this place, the strength in his body has been draining rapidly, and he can't even transform himself.

The hand hanging by the side clenched little by little.

The young man's arm was full of veins, he gritted his teeth and sneered:

"So it is... so it is!"

No wonder Cheng Yuming kept emphasizing his importance to the Zerg race, no wonder he became anxious as soon as he got together with Ying Sheng, twelve shitty kids, it turned out it was because of this!

I am simply a humanoid weapon created by them!

Xiang Shen opened his mouth and was about to speak when suddenly, there was a deafening explosion from outside the cave!

"boom--!!!"

The ground trembled more violently than before, and Xiang Shen supported the wall to hang on so he didn't fall. Even Cheng Yuming frowned and staggered a few steps before he managed to stabilize his body.

The young man whose atmosphere was interrupted frowned fiercely, and said angrily, "Who is so short-sighted?!"

"Bug like a dog, return me and my daughter-in-law!"

There was a shout from a distance.

It was an all-too-familiar voice, Xiang Shen couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and he shouted: "Your Highness, I'm here!"

A few seconds later, there was only a bang, and the entire wall of the secret room collapsed.

Ying Sheng drove a mecha that looked very much like a storm dragon, kicked the wall away, bent over, stretched out his hand, and carefully picked up Xiang Shen in his palm.

"I'll settle the score with you when I get back!" His Royal Highness looked very angry, he gave Xiang Shen a hard look, but his attention never shifted from beginning to end.

Cheng Yuming's expression turned cold when he saw him.

"Just right," he smiled methodically, "Come and have a try, the power of the Zerg's highest technology."

The huge instrument started slowly, forming a dazzling ball of energy in midair.

"This is a gift from Shen Shen to you."

The long-haired young man raised the corners of his lips maliciously, stretched out his fingertips, and pointed at the cockpit of the mech.

"Enjoy it, dear His Royal Highness!"

Ying Sheng's eyes were serious, he wasn't sure if he could stop it.

But he had no choice, he had to block it!

His Royal Highness changed hands and wanted to put the boy in a corner, but Xiang Shen took a deep breath, and in front of the two of them, he pulled off the star stone on his neck, snapped it apart, and used up the last bit in his body Energy, swallow it in your stomach.

Ying Sheng and Cheng Yuming turned pale with shock at the same time.

"What are you doing!" Ying Sheng lost his voice, "Spit it out!"

Star Stone has a very special property. As a rare ore, it contains huge energy and is edible. It is often used as an expensive stimulant.

But the only side effect is-

Significantly reduces lifespan.

Xiang Shenman laughed nonchalantly: "I'm a Kun, and my lifespan is thousands of years. Why do I need to be so long? 500 years is enough."

Moreover, he can now clearly feel that even if he is continuously absorbed by that instrument, his body is still full of incomparably abundant energy!

Cheng Yuming over there saw that the situation was not good, and immediately let the energy ball cut through the air in an instant, aiming at the mecha that had no time to react!

Seeing this, Xiang Shen chuckled disdainfully:

"The generation of ants."

The author has something to say: Countdown to the last chapter!
