That night, the heavy rain finally began to stop.
There was still no light in the deathly silent office.
The sound of squeaking, chewing, sucking, and the crunching of bones seems to be the sound that echoes in this office all year round.
Behind the desk, the major general stood tall and thin, and his body was even more exaggeratedly thin than Qi Lin's.
However, as the blood food on the silver plate in front of him gradually entered his stomach, his skinny body began to become stronger.
Just as the major general was elegantly preparing to chew the last piece of blood food, he noticed that an uninvited guest had arrived in the office silently.
The Major General frowned and quickly put all the knives, forks, ingredients, etc. into the space ring.
In the blink of an eye, there was nothing on the desk except some intelligence documents and a cup of tea.
It was as if everything that had happened before had never happened.
But soon, the major general smiled and took out the ingredients on the silver plate again, picked up the knife and fork and started chewing slowly.
"After this meal, I'm going to rest."
The major general elegantly picked up a pure white tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth.
He casually raised his head and looked at an unknown object that was flowing like a black liquid on the roof. The major general chuckled and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it quickly."
After the words fell, there was silence.
Deathly silence.
"hehe."
The major general smiled and ignored it. He just took out another piece of blood food and started cutting and eating it.
The liquid on the roof has never been consumed by the Major General.
"The squad leader said, if you have ten, you can surround it, if you have five, you can attack it. If you have doubled it, you can divide it. If the enemy is small, you can fight it. If you are small, you can escape from it. If you are small, you can avoid it."
The sound coming from the roof made the major general move. Then he gave up eating and quickly flipped through the intelligence documents on the table.
The intelligence recorded that an hour ago, a large army of skeletons surrounded the North City safety zone in a circular shape.
But what is interesting is that the skeletons are not attacking, and more skeletons are arriving one after another in the encirclement, hiding in the intricate buildings.
To avoid unnecessary panic, the information has been blocked.
The Major General concentrated on reading the last piece of information sent: Ten flaming skeleton archers arrived at a certain coordinate, looked for the commanding heights, and then stared at the North City in the heavy rain, standing still.
Snapped.
The major general gently closed the document and closed his eyes in deep thought.
Snapped!
The major general threw the documents heavily on the table, slowly leaned back on the back of the chair, closed his eyes and said to himself: "I was thinking before, since I can crush Beicheng with my strength, why don't I just attack directly? .”
"It seems that there might be an ambush of his at the base camp to the southeast of you."
"If there is, then he."
The major general suddenly opened his eyes: "Then he is a smart man!"
The liquid on the roof spread and twisted, but he didn't speak. He just listened quietly to the major general talking to himself.
"He didn't hide his strategic intentions. He did it deliberately and showed it to me and you."
"On the one hand, it means to warn you not to meddle in other people's business. On the other hand, it means to tell me that when he comes, I can use any tricks I have."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The major general suddenly lowered his head and laughed loudly. After laughing for a long time, he slowly raised his head and stared at the liquid on the roof and said softly: "He is very confident!"
"He is not only telling me, but also telling you that he is waiting for a surprise."
"What an interesting person!" the Major General exclaimed, "I just don't know why."
"Why are you hostile to me?"
"In other words, he is not targeting me, but the military... No, it should be me..."
"I thought about it carefully for a long time. Could it be that someone close to him died at my hands?"
"It seems like there's nothing else but this."
"Well, cooperation is always more beneficial than hostility. It seems that he may be a passionate young man who doesn't care about future interests."
The major general said to himself: "I got an interesting gadget some time ago, a battlefield nameplate."
"After the Chosen One is bound, not only can it provide real-time feedback on vital signs, but if it dies, the nameplate will also shatter."
The major general said, taking out dozens of nameplates with a wave of his hand and throwing them on the table.
Those nameplates shine like breath in the darkness, representing the light of life.
"I sent out several teams with nameplates in the first half of the night to investigate, but they all lost contact."
"But what's interesting is that none of them died. Judging from the glow of vital signs, they were not tortured."
"It seems that although he is a smart man, he is not ruthless enough."
"It also solidifies my previous speculation about him."
"He should be a young man who can easily get carried away with his passion and lose his mind, but that doesn't make sense. His strategic intentions don't reveal any irritable character that matches his strategic intentions."
"On the contrary, he is very steady and not impatient."
"If he was really impatient, he should have directly attacked with a big wave of his hand, but the interesting thing is that he didn't do that. Instead, he was waiting to catch some kind of surprise he wanted."
"Or maybe he was just at the bottom before the disaster, and his thinking and cognition couldn't keep up with the progress of his strength, so I just thought too much. He was just afraid of accidentally injuring civilians in the safe zone, and still maintained that he shouldn't exist in this new world. thinking"
"Is this why there is such a contrast?"
"What a contradictory person."
The Major General chuckled in annoyance, took the tea cup and took a sip of tea: "If it were me, I would torture him to get the information, but it seems to be useless."
"The teams I sent out didn't know anything. They were just chess pieces dropped casually. Being able to test out his style is the greatest and only value."
The Major General talked to himself like a chatterbox, but the liquid that continued to twist and flow on the roof remained silent, as if he was mute.
"Speaking of which," the major general looked up at the liquid, with a hint of confusion in his eyes: "You shouldn't have relayed his words to me. You broke the rules of your position. You might be punished for it when you go back."
Roof Liquid remained silent.
After waiting for a while, the Major General knew that the other party would not be able to speak, so he stood up with a smile and went to a metal cabinet in the corner.
The cabinet opened with a creak, and a square urn-like object was placed inside.
"Take this, it might be of some use."
The Major General waved his hand towards the liquid, which spread along the wall, but after crawling on top of the box, the box disappeared.
The Major General looked at the empty cabinet and smiled, then turned around and prepared to return to his desk: "In this world, there should be no feelings. I advise you to abandon those ridiculous feelings of yours as soon as possible."
"The value of a general lies on the battlefield. If a general does not go to the battlefield, the value of a general is zero."
"A person's value depends on his use value. Remember to be a useful person in the future."
"Also remember not to worry about worthless things or people, it is meaningless."
The Major General kept talking and did not turn his head. He just turned his back to the liquid and continued: "The fact that you are here means that he predicted my death, or your speech spirit predicted my death."
"Otherwise you wouldn't have come."
Liquid didn't answer.
The major general did not pursue the answer regarding his own life.
He stepped forward gently, came to the table, took the tea cup from the table, and looked down to see that there was still one-third of the tea in it.
He raised the teacup and drank it all in one gulp. When he put the teacup down, he seemed to still have something to drink. He stuck out his tongue and licked the teacup carefully.
"I hated drinking tea before the disaster."
"It's still fun to drink functional drinks."
"But from the first day of the disaster, I fell in love with drinking tea."
"That's when I developed a habit."
"Every night before I go to bed, I drink all the tea in the bowl without leaving a drop."
"Because I don't know if I can wake up the next day and have a sip of tea."
"Just like the old saying, God lets you live, a lifetime is a life, a year is a life, and a day is a life."
Click!
The young general used his fingers so hard that the tea cup and his palm were crushed into pieces.
Some fragments penetrated deeply into the Major General's palm, but no blood flowed out. Those wounds healed in an instant.
Wow
The major general threw away the fragments and walked slowly to a small bed behind the desk.
On the bed, a small cup with tofu cubes was placed there with sharp edges.
The Major General went to bed, pulled up the quilt, closed his eyes and said with a smile, "I am entirely to blame for everything."
"Go back and tell him that I don't regret it."
After the major general finished speaking, not even a minute later, his snoring could be heard throughout the room.
The liquid on the roof twisted and tried to turn into a human shape, but in the end it turned into a gradually transparent shadow, and the distortion spread and left the room.
Shortly after the shadow left, the major general's eyes suddenly opened!
The young general turned to look at the place where the shadow left: "It's just a pity that something unexpected happened halfway, so I didn't win against Qin Youde."
"Qin Youde"
"I never defeated you."
“What a pity”
at the same time.
In a venue thirty kilometers away from the Beicheng safety zone.
A mountain of corpses composed of corpses of various demon species was piled up in the originally spacious venue.
Because some demon species are too large, the roof of the venue has been cut off.
Qi Lin stood in front of the mountain of corpses, the hem of the mage's cloak swinging in the smelly wind.
Black lights rushed from his fingertips toward the mountain of corpses. In a short time, a black warrior, a skeleton mage, and a bronze bone archer appeared in the venue.
"Go to the next door to absorb the soul fire. After being promoted to the silver rank, follow the ghost's order and go to the designated coordinates."
The three new undead walked towards the next door, where the mage group was working hard to summon blood packs.
Qi Lin casually took out the psychoactive potion, drank it down, and opened the panel to check the properties.

"The magic source ends in half an hour. Although the cooling time is not shortened much due to the level, it can add 30% additional recovery, so you have to be careful."
"After taking care of Beicheng, you can consider heading north to find a suitable base to settle down and radiate."
Qi Lin was not idle while waiting for the skill to cool down.
He lay on the ground and started doing push-ups.
While the body is acting, the mind is not idle either.
There are often reports from ghosts in the soul link in the brain. These reports do not come when something happens. The ghosts solve some small problems by themselves. If they can't solve it, they will ask the ghost boss for advice. Only some people who can't even make up their mind will do it. Gradually came to Qi Lin.
Even though there were so many ghosts sharing the burden, Qi Lin could not stop thinking about it.
One of the things that puzzled Qi Lin the most: the wall problem in the Beicheng safety zone.
After the world was transformed, the extraordinary was revealed.
Some of the original materials have mostly become mediocre. Perhaps as time goes by, the free magic in the air will revive them.
But in the short term, only materials that have been transformed by extraordinary power can be put to great use.
As for city wall reinforcement props, Qi Lin has also obtained a lot in the past two months.
This is a very useless thing for Qi Lin, who currently has no base.
But it is a treasure to all major forces.
A city wall that is not reinforced by extraordinary power, no matter how many pieces of steel and special alloys there are, can only defend against the attacks of some low-ranking people.
Some magic bombardments cannot be resisted at all.
Therefore, it is crucial to find ways to strengthen the defensive layer of the enchanted city wall.
The intelligence from the ghost showed that at the military base camp in the southeast, the defensive deployment of the city walls was extremely elaborate. The foundations had been reinforced with magic capabilities, and defensive anti-invisibility systems were installed in most of the building areas. Wait for magic props.
But Beicheng Safe Zone, which belongs to the same lineage, seems to be very different.
