"As soon as you have ambition, you will lose your innocent feelings. - Balzac's Disillusionment"

The boundary line between the border area and the safe area is a dense forest.

This forest is a rare plant that does not have the conditions for mutation, so it isolates the spread of wild vegetation in the border area.The empire uses this dense forest as the boundary coordinates to draw the boundary between the safe zone and the border area.

This plant is really interesting:

When it perceives that the border area is less threatening, it will grow towards the border area and expand its coverage area;

And if the war in the border area goes badly and the violent vegetation shows signs of spreading, it will shrink back in the direction of the safe zone.

Therefore, people only need to look at the distribution shape of this forest to infer the direction of the empire's border.

It was given a very good name, called "Safe Forest".

Over the past ten years, the area of ​​this safety forest has grown greatly, and it has a tendency to become a forest.

This is because since Gu Shan came to power, the empire has implemented a drastic expansion strategy.

Humans, since the evolution of sentinels and guides, the mainstream political views have been divided into two factions——

One group believes that the evolution of human beings into special human beings is a sign of the end of the world. Before the end of the world, we should maintain the size of the existing safety zone and live a stable life.

The other school believes that the emergence of special human beings is the only way to advance to advanced life forms, and the existing safe zone in the border area is just a chaotic environment caused by natural selection. As long as the difficulties are overcome, the border area will also become a safe area, and human It will eventually be the most advanced life form on earth.

——The representative of this faction is Gu Shan. Since he became the commander-in-chief of the empire, the idea of ​​governing the country he put forward is:

"The special human community with Commander-in-Chief Gu Shan at its core will eventually restore the world order."

In their view, the confrontation between ordinary human beings and special human beings, and the confrontation between the safe zone and the border area is the embodiment of the chaos in the world.The empire has the responsibility and responsibility to unite all mankind, expand the safe zone, eliminate all dangers in the border areas, and restore world order.

very ambitious.

Makes sense.

Very attractive.

Relying on the mental power of his double S and the constant win over people's hearts, Gu Shan climbed from an ordinary soldier serving in the border area to the position of the commander-in-chief of the empire step by step.

The idea of ​​governing the country he put forward was pasted on the wall in big red characters by the Propaganda Department of the organization, and it was publicized in many eye-catching advertisements in the safe area.

Not to mention the border areas.

After Gu Shan came out of the incineration room, he had already regained his composure.

People cannot be resurrected from the dead.

He knew this truth from the first day in the Border Region.

At that time, when I was just an adult, I came to the border area to serve in the military. I watched my comrades in arms being torn apart by a violent plant, but there was nothing I could do.

Because the order from the superior is——

"retreat."

retreat.

Gu Shan walked through the corridor of the hospital where the disinfectant was floating, and sneered.

Hanging on the wall of the hospital is a framed picture of the ambition to restore world order that Gu Shan inscribed himself ten years ago.He glanced at his inscription and remembered what Bai Haiqing often said to him when he was still fighting with him in the border area:

"Is the land in the border area so easy to fight? Come back."

Gu Shan had never heard of it.

He even wrote this in front of Bai Haiqing and had it hung on the wall.

He rushed to the front line every day, assembled the strongest sentinel team, and fought with violent plants and strange beasts.

Often there is a whole team when you go, and a large number of corpses when you come back.

Bai Haiqing led the guide group to sort out the spirits of the sentry soldiers one by one.

There are cosmic rays in the border area.

This is why there are so many mutated animals and plants here, and there are countless unknown dangers.

At that time, Bai Haiqing finished conditioning the resting soldiers, stood up from the ground, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He said to Gu Shan: "Commander-in-Chief, do you know that cosmic rays can also affect people?"

Bai Haiqing is the guide of [-]S, the only person in the entire border area who can compete with Gu Shan in terms of mental strength.He has a lively personality, and has never really been afraid of the commander-in-chief who is slightly older than him, and has always called "you".

But Gu Shan has never bothered with him.

Gu Shan sat on a chair sullenly, looking at the sentry soldiers who were lying down exhausted after mental grooming.

Bai Haiqing stood in front of him and said seriously:

"Commander-in-Chief, we have reported many times that it is difficult for the guide's appeasement effect on sentries who have been in and out of the front line for a long time."

Seeing that Gu Shan didn't respond, Bai Haiqing took a deep breath and continued:

"In the history of the empire, we all rely on the safe forest and stick to the safe zone. Once we are too far away from the safe forest, the risk will be out of control."

At this moment, Gu Shan raised his head slightly and glanced at Bai Haiqing.

"Has the scope of our current security forest expanded?" He asked.

Bai Haiqing paused, "Yes."

"Does it mean that the safe zone has expanded?" He asked again.

Bai Haiqing continued to answer: "Yes."

Gu Shan leaned back, with a relaxed posture.He looked at Bai Haiqing who was standing at attention and wearing a neat military uniform.

"Then what's your problem?"

There was no trace of impatience and blame in the tone.

Bai Haiqing frowned.

"I've already said that the guide's reassurance is already very ineffective for those sentinels fighting on the front line. If this continues, they may all fall into mental riots. At that time, we have no means of intervention."

He looked at Gu Shan for a while, and his tone was a little anxious:

"And haven't you noticed that the longer the person who stays on the front line, if he dies, his remains will become more attractive to violent plants-our base can't park the remains of soldiers for more than an hour now, It must be cremated as soon as possible, otherwise the violent planting will come soon."

Gu Shan crossed his hands.

"Then what is your suggestion?"

Bai Haiqing said without hesitation: "Retreat."

"We have gone too far in the border area. Go back to the safety forest first."

retreat.

Gu Shan walks with the wind.There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth, full of mockery.

His mental power floated behind him, and was quickly exhausted by the hospital's fresh air system.

Bai Haiqing...

You retreated cleanly.

Gu Shan walked all the way into the ward that Bai Haiqing was in a few hours ago.

When he left, Bai Haiqing was still sleeping here obediently.

When he came back, it had already been burned to ashes.

Back then, Bai Haiqing said that the body should not be parked for more than an hour, but he ended up using it on himself.

He grabbed the malfunctioning ventilator and carefully checked the various accessories inside.

He called an engineering technician.This is a branch of the border area, responsible for overhauling various mechanical equipment.

"Cause of malfunction," he ordered.

Gu Shan just stood one step away, staring at the young engineer.He didn't restrain his mental power at all, and put all the pressure on the technician.

This is a young sentinel who has just come to serve in the military.

Under the coercion of the commander-in-chief, his fingers were shaking.Tremblingly, he took the faulty part in his hand, turned it around, and disassembled it from time to time.He forced himself to concentrate on the object in his hand, only in this way, he could be less influenced by the commander-in-chief as much as possible.

After a while, he finally finished checking.

After confirming again and again, he reported to the commander-in-chief:

"Report to the commander-in-chief, the cause of the failure is determined to be aging equipment."

The young technician opened the fault location. There was a crack there, and it was this small crack that prevented the entire oxygen supply assembly from functioning properly.

Gu Shan stared at the position pointed by the engineer.

After a while, he asked: "The equipment is aging, why not replace it in time?"

There was no sound in the ward.

Gu Shan's subordinates were all standing outside the door.

Because he didn't wait for an answer, Gu Shan's voice suddenly rose.

He said word for word:

"I asked."

"Why, don't you replace the aging equipment in time?!"

Gu Shan looked out the door sharply.

After experiencing what happened in the incineration room just now, these people seem to be even more afraid to speak.

When he was in the incinerator, because he told the truth, Gu Shan was able to strangle one of his former right-hand men to death, and then sent him to the biochemical laboratory for samples.

At this moment, the Commander-in-Chief is again being held accountable.

Yet this is not a problem for any of them at all.

Gu Shan smiled coldly.

Shiny black military boots stepped towards the door of the ward.His subordinates immediately lined up in the corridor.

Gu Shan stopped at the door of the ward, facing this line of his confidantes who were silent and disciplined.

"Don't say anything, just be dumb..."

His gaze swept over these people slowly, watching them shrink unconsciously the moment his gaze touched them.

Gu Shan took a deep breath, then clenched his teeth and opened his eyes angrily.

His spiritual power condensed at a high density in an instant, forming a sharp weapon, and piercing towards the opposite person.

His target is the sentinel on the far left——

That's the director of the equipment department in the border area, who is in charge of all kinds of equipment. He dared to keep silent——

Just when his mental power was about to pierce this man's military uniform, the young sentinel in the ward behind him suddenly called out:

"Commander-in-Chief! We no longer have the ability to replace equipment!"

Gu Shan's mental power stagnated for an instant.

Then, like an advection fog, it spread out.

He turned slowly.

"you say--"

"Why not replace the equipment?"

This sentence was asked lightly and slowly, but it made everyone shudder.

Gu Shan stared at the little engineering technician, he even smiled encouragingly, but this smile was too cold.

The little sentinel sniffed.He clenched his fists and stood at attention with two clicks.

He cried out:

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief—!"

"We no longer have the ability to replace equipment! All our supplies are leaning towards the front line, resources are used for weapons and ammunition, non-combat necessities have not been updated for a year!"

Maybe it's because people's fear is extreme, but they will burst out with courage. At this moment, the little sentinel shouted with all his strength, making the whole hospital as quiet as a cemetery.

Together with Gu Shan himself who brought fear, they all fell silent.

Each of them stood motionless, each with a straight back.

They are all like tombstones, stubbornly guarding here.

The engineer was right.

In the border area, because of the expansion strategy, all the materials and money were dumped on the front line, which has already shown its signs more than seven years ago.

At that time, Gu Shan and his confidantes aimed at the biggest piece of cake in the entire empire that no one had touched yet.

——The Mo family.

Gu Shan walked towards the young sentinel.

He looked at the little sentinel as if he had discovered something rare.

Gu Shan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"What you said is not bad at all."

He even smiled and patted the little sentinel on the shoulder.

Then, with such high emotions, he turned and walked out of the ward.

As he went down the stairs, he took out his cell phone from his pocket.

After pressing a string of phone numbers, the other person picked up the phone without waiting a few times.

Gu Shan asked: "Zhao Yun, how is Mo Di's matter going?"

Gu Shan's brows widened when he replied something over there.

"Really," Gu Shan smiled, "That's not bad."

Gu Shan walked out of the hospital and got into the car without looking back.

The moment the car started, he said the last sentence to the phone.

"He will definitely be our best weapon."

The author says:

Gu Shan: villain + mad critic

Modi: Decent, no crazy criticism yet

To the last two aspects of pk is to see who is crazy than whom∠(?)∠)_
