Shinjuku Gyoen is surrounded by Shinano Town, named after the former residence of the Naito family, retainers of the Tokugawa shogunate in the Edo period. Nowadays, the area is full of high-end apartments and high-end towers. From the balcony, you can see the Akasaka Imperial Palace and Meiji Jingu Shrine. Waiyuan can be said to be a quite high-end residential area.
Because it is close to the headquarters of Youying Group, it is also one of the very few residential areas that has not been invaded by experimental subjects.
Yue Ji looked out of the window, and the street in the afternoon was as quiet as a painting.
Strangely enough, I thought that the experimental subjects would disrupt the entire Tokyo and the situation would continue to deteriorate.
No one expected that as soon as it got dark, the experimental subjects would disappear en masse, hiding somewhere, just like the vampires in ancient legends who were afraid of the sun and escaped into the darkness.
"The analysis of the experimental subjects is still in progress. Netherworld has just established a special team and hired the famous Dr. Aaron to serve as the team leader. This is an alchemy scientist who once worked for the Ether Association. He has extensive experience in biotechnology and alchemical regeneration technologies. He is the undisputed number one in the world in every field.”
Su Youxia yawned, threw a stack of documents on the sofa, and said lazily: "It's best to pray that these guys are hiding out of some kind of biological instinct, rather than being manipulated by others.
Everyone has seen zombie movies.
No one would want this kind of monster to appear in reality, because it would be a devastating impact on modern civilization.
If someone could control these zombies, their danger would undoubtedly increase tenfold.
In particular, the destructive power of these experimental subjects is much greater than that of zombies.
"Haven't you found it yet?"
Yue Ji played with the cat-face mask in her hand, her face as delicate as ice and snow showing no expression.
"No, he disappeared after the battle with Judge Bai on that viaduct."
Su Youxia was half leaning on the sofa, her eyes and eyebrows seemed to be lazy, and she said soothingly: "Now it's not just me who is looking for him, the whole dark world is looking for him. I have arranged spies in all the major families. If there is any news, We will intercept it as soon as possible. After all, Xiao Gu is not a good person, he is like a Godzilla now."
Yue Ji hummed, she was very calm at the moment.
Although she lost her boyfriend, she was not worried.
Because the current Gu Jianlin is really like a Godzilla, killing whoever he catches.
And Mr. Jing is currently in Tokyo.
That is a very reliable man, and he will not just watch something happen to his junior brother.
In addition, the city of Tokyo actually has shadows.
Gu Jianlin once explained to her that there was such a mysterious organization under the president.
The people in this organization are like shadows growing in the darkness. They will not leave any trace of their own existence. They will only take root and sprout silently, using faith and inheritance as their rhizomes to thrive in dark corners.
This is an organization specially established by the President to fight against the control of the Priory.
If the Priory's usual method is to promote the general trend of the world to achieve its own goals.
Then the shadows are the people who are secretly monitoring and influencing the situation.
The mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole follows behind.
When Yue Ji heard about the shadow organization, she naturally thought about many things.
For example, the teacher had some weird behaviors when he took her around.
Including the last action to betray her.
There was the sound of the clash of firearms in the study room next door. It was someone assembling her beloved firearms.
The most inseparable thing in Jiang Mingyan's life is her firearms. Her arsenal can be called a museum of hot weapons. The display cabinets on the wall are filled with her carefully collected firearms and bullets. After her maintenance, they can be taken out at any time. A murder weapon, not a toy that can only be used for viewing.
The woman is currently polishing her sniper rifle and oiling various parts.
In fact, half a year ago, Yue Ji had been following her teacher to explore the world. She almost never met her biological mother, and rarely had contact with the Jiang family or people in the dark world.
This is because Gu Cian has always protected her very well.
This also shows his authority as a shadow.
Until the teacher came back one time worried, and without saying a word, he wanted to take her to meet someone.
Yue Ji was still full of curiosity until she met the sharp-edged woman at the airport.
From then on she lost her freedom.
At the same time, she also gained new protection in disguise.
Now I think that the teacher at that time must have foreseen the crisis and arranged a way out for her in advance.
"No matter what, this is your mother."
Su Youxia sat cross-legged on the sofa, biting a piece of cut watermelon, and said calmly: "She was still very worried about you last night, and even thought about taking you away personally. Fortunately, Xiao Gu's fighting ability is strong enough. .”
Yue Ji said with a straight face: "My mother is not your mother?"
"I'm an adult. It doesn't matter whether I have a mother or not."
Su Youxia smiled and said: "But you are different, you are a minor."
Yue Ji had no expression on her face, grabbed Tian Cong Yun Sword and prepared to leave.
boom.
The study door was opened.
Jiang Mingyan wore a long black windbreaker, and the shadow of the brim of the hat covered her delicate and cold face. She was carrying a heavy metal weapon box in her hands, and there was a clear sound of metal collision when she walked.
"If you want to leave, you can."
She said coldly: "I won't stop you."
Su Youxia watched this scene with interest, the rigid and cold mother and the youthful and rebellious daughter.
This is so much fun.
Tsukiji turned around and raised her chin proudly.
She didn't know what else the woman in front of her had to say.
The powerful strength Gu Jianlin displayed yesterday was enough to scare even her Sanctuary level. From early morning to now, she has never said a strange word, nor has she raised any questions about the engagement.
After all, no matter how reluctant you are, the facts are right in front of you and are undeniable.
As her daughter, Yue Ji was really ahead of her when it came to choosing men.
When the Jiang family came to find her, she had no idea of resistance at all. She could only think of humiliating herself and protecting her two beloved daughters in the most appropriate way, and her husband naturally became the victim.
This story happened to her daughter again many years later, but the direction was completely different.
The Jiang family came to visit again.
The Jiang family was devastated.
Well, the Jiang family didn’t even know why they were beaten up.
In short, it was blown away.
Even the black and white judges were dead, and two holy realm-level ones died overnight.
Just because the dark world launched a campaign against that boy, it paid a heavy price in casualties.
Now the whole dark world is shaking. It's like a group of hunters went to hunt giant bears in a cave in the wild in winter, but accidentally awakened Godzilla and were killed.
Tell me why you messed with him.
After Jiang Mingyan witnessed the battle on the viaduct with his own eyes, he felt that the Jiang family was seeking death.
You can't fault them.
It can only be said that the opponent is so strong that it is completely unreasonable.
Of course, she can also say that marriage matters do not only depend on strength, but also on the suitability of both parties.
It's just that it's okay to say this in the world of ordinary people.
In the dark world, it's all bullshit.
So she changed her approach, neither agreeing nor disapproving, but waiting and watching before speaking.
At this moment, she was also very curious about the boy. She could just visit Si's house in person some other time.
And just now, she found out something very interesting.
"The Aether Association action team arrived in Tokyo at five o'clock in the morning last night for the matter of the experimental subjects."
Jiang Mingyan said coldly: "Currently, the government in Tokyo has been controlled by them. The Baqi Society is dissatisfied but unable to resist. You Ming and the military advisor personally led a team to the Imperial Palace to negotiate with them."
Su Youxia narrowed her beautiful eyes. This was a compromise made by the Ether Association and the Youying Group. Because the potential threat from the Hermitage was too great, they did not want to start a war in Tokyo immediately, so negotiations were necessary.
The problem is that negotiation does not mean that there is no real fight.
Because the negotiation table is a kind of battlefield.
She has also heard how strong the Ether Association is this time.
If a fight really breaks out at the negotiation table, it's nothing new.
"What does it have to do with me?"
Yue Ji raised her cold face and said expressionlessly: "I don't regard myself as a person from the dark world."
Jiang Mingyan sneered.
There is an old saying that a wise woman is better than her mother.
Jiang Mingyan has not fulfilled any obligation to support her in these years, and has always lived in two worlds with her, but because of the existence of one person, he was able to witness her growth along the way.
That person is Gu Cian.
Now that I think about it, Gu Ci'an is a really good person and an impeccable teacher. He has made a photo album of his student's growth over the years, recording every bit of her life.
It was sent to Tokyo from time to time and delivered to her, the biological mother.
As a teacher, Gu Ci'an didn't just teach his students how to survive in the extraordinary world, nor did he just think about making her stronger. His real purpose was to heal her broken childhood.
Making peace with the past is difficult.
Gu Cian is trying.
Perhaps he compensated his debt to his son in another way to his students.
Back then, Gu Ci'an became a father for the first time, but he made everything a mess. When he finally matured and met a girl who was so similar to his son, he naturally loved her more.
Jiang Mingyan was very grateful to the man and thought about how to compensate his son.
Who would have thought that two children would have to get together and fall in love.
"There is a person in the action team of the Ether Association. He is the most talented successor in the history of the Ether Association, the undisputed candidate for the president, and the future throne of the Order World. He is code-named Thunder. There is currently a very popular saying that the president I intend to combine Thunder and Qilin to jointly shoulder the fate of the human world."
Jiang Mingyan said indifferently: "It's like Taiqing and Taihua four hundred years ago."
Su Youxia paused slightly while eating the watermelon, and secretly raised her beautiful eyes to look at her sister.
Yue Ji's eyes sharpened silently, with a hint of loneliness and coldness.
"Many people in the Dark World have gone to see her, wanting to see what the future mistress of the Order World will look like. If nothing else happens, when she reaches the ninth level, it will be the moment she comes to Tokyo and declares her rule. . There are not many opportunities to get a close-up look at the future pillars of the human world.”
Jiang Mingyan glanced at his daughter, with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "And the future mistress is not in a good mood right now, because people from the dark world have just surrounded and killed her boyfriend."
The relationship between women is always a matter of words.
Even biological mothers and daughters are no exception.
You are here to take a bite of your boyfriend.
But in the world of order, he has become someone else's boyfriend.
Which one of you is the clown?
Su Youxia put her hand on her forehead and said sorry to Uncle Gu who was in heaven.
Perhaps Gu Ci'an didn't expect that the relationship between mother and daughter would be so bad. Even if he was reincarnated and lived another life, he would never see the scene of their loving mother and daughter's filial piety.
】
Yue Ji turned around and left, her short platinum hair swaying in the afternoon sun, but she seemed sharp.
Originally, she had no interest in this so-called negotiation.
Now that Thunder is here, she must go and take a look.
Everything about this woman has something to do with her!

"Humph, a bunch of clowns."
Skylark leaned on the seat in the morgue, sprayed disinfectant in disgust, and waved his hands to disperse the smell that hit his face: "Do you really think I'm easy to bully? Even if I lose my memory, I'm still their aunt."
Gu Jianlin turned on the incandescent lamp, put on a mask and protective clothing, like a researcher, looked down at the corpse on the iron bed, and whispered: "I didn't expect you to even bring the corpse back."
This was his first opportunity to see an ancestor's body up close.
And he is an ancient ancestor.
The one lying on the iron bed was the white-haired young man. There was no doubt that she was a member of the Zhulong clan. After her ancient deification, her original posture was that of a ferocious dragon. This image was very common in ancient times. Roaring and roaring in rivers or seas, now I think they must be brave and skilled warriors.
Otherwise, there would not be so many ancient legends left behind.
"There should be quite a lot of ancestors of the Jiaolong genus."
Skylark jumped down from the chair, disappeared like a ghost, and floated to his side.
Gu Jianlin was now used to her ghost-like behavior, but he was too close to her, and the tips of her slightly curled hair fell to his cheek. Even if she was in a virtual state at the moment, he could still see her. Recalling the vague touch and the scent of orchid musk so close to Chichi, it makes people feel relaxed.
He instinctively took half a step away and asked curiously: "Isn't this guy suddenly resurrected?"
The ancient gods all had immortality.
"It seems like you don't know anything about the Ancient God Clan?"
Yunque raised his hand and poked his forehead: "How did Taihua teach you?"
Gu Jianlin stopped talking again.
"For the ancient gods, they are indeed immortal. But immortality is actually a false proposition, or a paradox, because no one can prove that they are immortal. Even if you live for ten trillion years, you don't know Will you die tomorrow? Therefore, immortality cannot be proven, only disproven.”
Skylark snorted coldly: "The same is true for the ancient gods. Perhaps only the ancient supreme ones are really unkillable. Even if they are really killed, they will still wake up again after tens of millions of years. As for the ancestors and the ancestors, I mean, if you can obtain their marrow, they can indeed be reincarnated and resurrected."
"This process takes a long time, at least a span of a thousand years. After rebirth, they are just brand new individuals with the same power. They are no longer the ancient gods you knew before."
She explained: "For example, Kui, if someone obtains her marrow and uses rituals to reincarnate her, then you will indeed be able to see a new Kui thousands of years later. But that Kui will not remember you, and she has no past. His memory and conscious thinking have nothing to do with the past. They just have the same name and surname, look the same, and have the same power."
"I see."
Gu Jianlin suddenly realized: "Then do you remember the person in front of you?"
Skylark stared at the body of the white-haired boy on the iron bed and remained silent for a long time.
This is their prize.
After last night's battle, their gains were unprecedented.
This was the first time they organized a counterattack, and they immediately caught the cloister of the Priory.
A body was even recovered.
It's not like I haven't come into contact with the corpses of members of the Priory before.
The problem is that those people are too low level.
But now they actually have an ancient ancestor in their hands.
Perhaps we can see many things from this ancestor.
There are few such perfect corpses in the world. It looks like a body made of white jade. The pale skin shows a crystal luster, and blood can be vaguely seen flowing in the cyan blood vessels.
There is a vague smell.
Even after death, she kept breathing and heartbeating, which was amazing physical activity.
She was wrapped in layers of white cloth, sealing the spirituality flowing in her body.
Now that I think about it, the ancient Egyptian mummy-making technology may have imitated the civilization of the ancient gods.
"Can't remember."
Skylark put his hand on his forehead, with a trace of confusion in his eyes.
"How about you try to get into my body?"
Gu Jianlin said seriously: "We will use time to review and add profiling to look for clues."
