A year has passed in the blink of an eye, and Nandu has gradually returned to some prosperity, but it is still not the same as before.
Wang Qin wore a black suit and walked aimlessly on the road in Nandu, followed by Huang Zhizong, carrying a bag full of snacks and candies.
"Master, it's almost time, it's time to go back!" Huang Zhizong glanced at the time and reminded in a low voice.
Since the conclusion of the negotiations, there has been no news about Dihao in Nandu. People have even forgotten the Dihao Group, which was once the most powerful in Nandu.
It's just that Emgrand's building is still the tallest building in Nandu City, and the front door of Emgrand is still heavily guarded. However, I haven't seen any news about Emgrand on TV or in newspapers.
"Uncle Huang, it's rare that the spring breeze is good today, so please let me walk a little longer!" Wang Qin said coquettishly. This is not the same business representative who once dominated the military and political circles.
"Okay, okay~!" Huang Zhizong responded with a smile. It's rare that the spring breeze is good today, and it's also rare that Wang Qin's face is filled with a smile.
Wang Qin looked at the scenery of Nandu City. Although it was not as prosperous as before, it was still lively. The bustling streets were full of pedestrians with smiles on their faces, as if the war a year ago had already been wiped out by them. Forget.
"Has Lu Fu said anything about the progress at the experimental base recently?" Wang Qin looked at Huang Zhizong. In the past, Wang Qin had always attached great importance to such work matters and would never ask in such a casual tone.
"Everything is going according to the plan. The new batch of Wei Brain Armor is expected to change the strength of Plop Warrior into an S-level driver, and even reach the peak of S-level. However, there are certain requirements for the user's physical fitness, but it is not as strong as Duan Nao is so harsh."
Huang Zhizong said in a low voice that the Dihao Experimental Base is now guarded by a private army of S-level armored soldiers.
"Dr. Qian is indeed a highly respected scientist in the field of exoskeletons. Not only is he extremely accomplished in virus research, he also has a very high reputation in the field of armor research."
A smile filled Wang Qin's face. Plans that were originally about to be put on hold were put on track again because of the presence of Dr. Qian and other leading figures in the scientific community.
"It's a pity that there is still no news about the Xu couple and Xu Joey." The smile on Wang Qin's face suddenly disappeared, and he just looked at the streets in front of him with people coming and going, his expression a little sad and lost.
In just one year, Wang Qin gradually looked down on many things. Although the search for many people was not over yet and he had been looking for Lin Zihan's whereabouts, there was no news in a year.
Wang Qin also gradually lost confidence.
"According to the eagle eye monitoring restored by the eldest young master, it was discovered that Xu Joy was taken away from the government hall about an hour before Nandu City fell into war."
Huang Zhizong whispered, no one on the streets here would pay attention to what the two of them were saying. Although Huang Zhizong's voice was small, he did not lower it deliberately.
"The direction Lin Zihan escaped was to the north. Is there any news from Beihuang?" Wang Qin looked at Huang Zhizong, and he and Huang Zhizong walked to a seat on the roadside and sat down together.
His left foot was crossed. Wang Qin didn't look as upright as he did in Dihao. Instead, he looked like a young man traveling with him, even with a bit of scorn.
Wang Qin now seems to be a different person from a year ago. He no longer looks like the cold and coercive person in power.
"Over the Northern Wilderness Army, one of the division commanders of the Northern Wilderness Army was Shadow Sect, that is, Bai Meng. His subordinates sent word that there had been several powerful thunder clouds in the Northern Wilderness, and then again There’s no news either.”
Huang Zhizong thought for a while, maybe Lin Zihan became a blood dragon, opened up the path to immortality described in the novel, and maybe caused a thunder disaster.
"Uncle Huang, don't you also read the novels in Lin Zihan's room and believe in the way of cultivating immortals?" Wang Qin looked at Huang Zhizong and suddenly understood.
"Master, although I used to dislike Lin Zihan, I have to admit that I won't be surprised if anything happens to him. He is like a legend."
Huang Zhizong said with a smile, Sitting on the street like this, Huang Zhizong seemed to be just like when he was young and beside the lady. At that time, he was not so vicissitudes of life, at least he had less gray hair.
"Yes, he can become a dragon. It's not impossible for him to become a god that day!" Wang Qin said with a bitter smile, looking at the oversized shopping bag in Huang Zhizong's hand.
It was filled with all kinds of snacks, all of which Wang Qin had recently discovered and had never tried before. He must take them back for Kexin and the others to try too.
"Jingle Bell……"
Just as Wang Qin was thinking about the taste of delicious food, the phone suddenly rang, interrupting Wang Qin's thoughts.
Pressing the communicator on his wrist with one hand, Wang Qin was about to get angry, but when he saw Su Yu's serious face appeared, he immediately became much kinder.
"Brother..." Wang Qin had an apologetic smile on his face, looking at Lin Zihan on the virtual screen with a smile in his eyes, and even his tone of voice became a little cuter.
"Stop smiling so playfully!" Su Yu said sternly, his face not looking good.
"What's wrong, brother?" Wang Qin noticed that Su Yu had the same expression and stopped laughing. His expression suddenly became as serious as before, and his eyes looking at the screen became much more serious.
"In the southern barbarian mining area, Xia Ming came back with news that something had happened to the sub-race tribe. Qin Lin, the sub-race man who had come to Nandu to seek refuge with Lin Zihan, seemed to have been killed." Su Yu's serious expression even revealed that There are serious worries.
"What could happen in the Nanman Mining Area? Going deep into the poisonous fog area is full of sub-race tribes and wild beasts. Could it be possible..." Wang Qin suddenly became a little nervous. The Nanman Mining Area is an important source of energy for Dihao's military reserves.
"You'll know when you get back. I'll wait for you at the Dihao Building!" Su Yu didn't say much and hung up the phone directly, leaving Wang Qin and Huang Zhizong looking at each other.
"Master, it looks like the eldest master's face..." Huang Zhizong glanced at Wang Qin and felt a little worried. In this year, he hadn't seen Su Yu speak with a straight face for a long time.
"It's better to go back quickly!" Wang Qin stood up, walked to the roadside, waved, and a black car drove straight over in the distance.
Just because Wang Qin chose to walk on the street didn't mean that Emgrand was really in such a state of decline that he didn't even have a car accompanying him. It just meant that Wang Qin liked the feeling of being on the streets.
Watching Wang Qin quickly walk into the black car, in the dark alley, a figure slowly walked out, looking at the car driving away, with a somewhat puzzled look in his eyes.
"He's back!"
…
In the black tower, Lin Zihan could no longer remember how much time had passed. The Luogu controlled by Xingfa had become strange even with the passage of time. Moreover, without the alternation of day and night, Lin Zihan could not even remember. Time to clear.
Looking towards the mountain top in the distance, Lin Zihan's eyes showed a bit of surprise.
"What is that?" Lin Zihan was a little confused as to why the outline of a mountain appeared in the endless starry sky with no top or bottom.
"That's a star change, which means something big is about to happen!" Xingfa just glanced at it and pretended not to see it at all. After all, so many years have passed in the universe, and there is nothing big that Xingfa has never seen before.
"Something big happened? Did the Star Attendant come to Yuanxing?" Lin Zihan thought for a while, this was already the worst outcome that Lin Zihan could think of.
"A major event in the universe, the fall of a planet, is not enough to ignite the star cloud in the universe." Xingfa said slowly, even a little irritated.
Lin Zihan has so many problems!
"I want to go out and have a look. I've been here for too long and I'm a little bored!" Lin Zihan stretched his body. In the black tower, Lin Zihan's consciousness will be separated from the blood dragon's body and he can be alone in Luogu. Wandering among them.
"Is this boring? Do you know how long I have been imprisoned in the black tower? For me, this time is less than one ten thousandth or even one billionth!" Xingfa said quietly, even Some resentment.
"Blood Dragon, do you want to go out for a walk and take a look at the Yuanxing you have never seen? Take a look at the current Yuanxing technology. Compared with your dragon, how far is it?" Lin Zihan turned his gaze. He looked at a blood dragon sitting cross-legged in the black tower.
Since entering the black tower and being seriously injured by Xingfa, the blood dragon has been sitting there cross-legged, and Lin Zihan and Xingfa have a tacit understanding and do not disturb him.
But Lin Zihan was really bored. He began to worry about Wei Mengying's safety, whether Ke Xin would be happy, whether Sister Bing was still so hot-tempered, and whether Wang Qin could still gain a foothold in Nandu...
In short, there are many things that Lin Zihan wants to know now, and once he has an idea, he will become more and more intense.
Originally, Lin Zihan thought that he could be as cold-blooded and aimless as before, living in the Black Tower just like he had been in Longcheng, living day by day.
But Lin Zihan had forgotten that when he was in Longcheng, Lin Zihan could see Wei Mengying on the roadside every afternoon at sunset. He would see her long hair spread out and slowly pass by him, and then gradually... Walking further and further away.
"Okay, okay, stop daydreaming here. You are just a consciousness, and your thoughts will be exposed here. I don't want to see the disgusting scene of you falling in love here alone!"
Xingfa's voice interrupted Lin Zihan's reverie. He couldn't accept why a demon who had killed countless people, a killer known as the God of Death, could have such a love-minded or even brain-dead side.
The reason why Xingfa calls Lin Zihan mentally retarded is because every scene that comes to Lin Zihan's mind will be played out in front of Xingfa. Because it was Xingfa who separated a strand of consciousness and pulled Lin Zihan's consciousness out of the blood dragon's body and put it into the falling valley.
