Qin Jue's attitude was very firm. Seeing this, Su Chen could only think about it and said:
"Five, no more."
"Eight, and one of them, like those from the Bai family, will stay with you for a period of time and be taught by you personally." Qin Jue said seriously:
"Mr. Su, I can tell you clearly that this is our lowest psychological expectation. Otherwise, this painting will have many uses when we take it back, and you should also understand."
Su Chen knew that what she said was indeed the truth.
Because the officials already know that things can be put into the painting after it mutates. Now for them, it is difficult to take out the things put in. But is this a problem?
Obviously not.
Even if they don't need to ask Su Chen, they should all guess that these things will be available sooner or later.
So by holding this painting in their own hands, they can put a large amount of materials that are not used at this stage directly into the painting. Anyway, they can't use it now and can't take it away. They can put it into the painting in the future when the superpowers get stronger. , naturally there is a chance to take it out.
It’s no loss no matter what.
Su Chen thought about it again and again, and finally nodded:
"Okay, eight is eight. I can agree to the conditions, but I also have conditions. It is impossible to introduce the Qi into the body of these eight people immediately. As long as no accident occurs, I will do it within three days. Done. If something unexpected happens, then the date will naturally need to be changed."
"In addition, the talents of these eight people should not be too bad, so this should not be a problem for you."
Helping people introduce Qi into their bodies is an extremely draining spiritual energy task.
Previously, when Su Chen was still in the qi training stage, he was very tired just by helping Bai Cha introduce qi into his body.
Now that he has reached the foundation building stage, he can help three or five people complete it at one time, but after completion, there will not be much spiritual power left in his body.
At this juncture, Su Chen would not let the spiritual power in his body dry up.
As for the requirements for talent, it is actually also due to the consumption of spiritual power.
Helping people with better talents to introduce Qi into their bodies will naturally consume less spiritual energy, and vice versa.
If anything, even if he had no talent for cultivation, Su Chen could make the other party complete the introduction of Qi into his body as long as he was willing, but the spiritual power required was an astronomical figure.
And even if the Qi is introduced into the body, if you don't have talent, you won't be able to carry out subsequent training on your own, which is completely meaningless.
"Of course there's no problem with this." Qin Jue breathed a sigh of relief when he finally agreed.
She made a special trip to the Magic City at this time, and her main goal was considered accomplished.
Of course, by asking her to make this trip, she wanted to achieve more than just this main goal.
After briefly talking about the specific cooperation methods, such as when they would send people over, Qin Jue quickly led the topic elsewhere.
"The situation has become increasingly serious recently. I wonder what Mr. Su thinks?"
Qin Jue asked tentatively.
"Whatever you want, just sit and watch." Su Chen said with an indifferent smile:
"What, is the situation very bad over there?"
"It is indeed very bad. More and more walking corpses and ferocious beasts have appeared in the past few days. In order to exterminate these monsters, our army has suffered a lot of casualties." Qin Jue said in a deep voice:
"And compared to the sporadic appearance of zombies and ferocious beasts before, these monsters now tend to appear in batches."
"Just yesterday afternoon, a camp we stationed in a town next to Nanmu City to protect the safety of refugees encountered a similar thing. A total of nearly a thousand walking corpses suddenly appeared there, as if they appeared out of thin air."
"Fortunately, it was a heavily-armed combined battalion with a large amount of heavy equipment and more than a dozen main battle tanks. Only then did we complete the annihilation of these walking zombies without any major accidents."
"It's just that when our headquarters reviewed the situation afterwards, we still couldn't figure out where these zombies came from."
"Thousands of zombies at a time mean they are mutated from thousands of people. After these zombies mutate, they will not directly join together with purpose. They will definitely cause destruction in the surrounding areas first, and then finally They slowly gathered together. In other words, these zombies may have killed tens of thousands of people on the way together. You can just investigate along this line of defense. How could you not figure out where they came from?" Su Chen Surprised.
"That's true, but...it can't be checked!" Qin Jue sighed and said something that even Su Chen didn't expect:
"I'm afraid you don't know, but we have basically lost control of the rural areas."
Su Chen's eyes narrowed and he said slowly:
"real or fake?"
"Of course it's true. It won't do any good if I lie to you about this kind of thing." Qin Jue shook his head and said:
"There is no way. Compared with towns, rural branches are scattered and it is difficult to organize defense. If we want to take care of rural areas, our military and police strength is simply not enough."
"So our initial plan was to move people from the countryside to the city as soon as possible. This would provide centralized protection and make it easier to control. It would also be easier to deal with the zombies if they appear, and it would also reduce the probability of ferocious beasts attacking people in the wild. .”
"But the effect was very poor, mainly because the time was too short, and after we finalized the relocation plan, the rural areas had become very dangerous. There may be deadly beasts hiding in any wild place at that time, and many people appeared when relocating people. An example of being attacked by a ferocious beast on the road.”
"So so far, except for those who realized something was wrong and ran to the city in advance, the vast majority of the rural population is still in the countryside."
"In the cities, our military has been clearing away the walking corpses. In the villages...in short, most villages have lost contact now, and the official grassroots organizations have basically collapsed."
"So we can't find the origin of these walking corpses at all, so it's naturally difficult to provide effective early warning."
"According to the command's opinion, such things will probably only increase in the future."
After hearing her say so much, Su Chen finally came to his senses.
What should we do if there are more and more unpredictable situations? Of course, change the current deployment and think of another way.
Then Su Chen smiled and said:
"So? What are your plans now?"
As expected, Qin Jue’s reply only had four words:
"Shrink defense."
Shrink Defense...
Su Chen shook his head.
Although these few words are simple, the amount of information inside is a bit too much.
But this is actually a helpless move by the military. There is really no other way. If it is still spread all over the ground like it is now, what if it is attacked by several large-scale walking corpses or ferocious beasts?
