The command post remains the same.
There are frosted glass doors everywhere, and occasionally engineers in white gowns come in and out holding tablet computers. At a glance, you can see the flashing holographic device inside the door.
However, there are many more enhanced semi-bionic commandos standing guard in the hall.
Li Liang noticed that the face armor of these commandos had a special coating, which looked like a shield-shaped emblem. The pattern of the emblem vaguely contained galaxies and spaceships, which must have represented the Dros clan.
Following Gong Hu, the group walked up to the second floor and came to a spacious reception room.
"Please wait a moment," Gong Hu said as he prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute," Li Liang asked casually, "As far as I know, humans have hired a consultant?"
"Uh..." Hearing Li Liang use the word "human", Gong Hu subconsciously took a small step back and said in a more respectful tone, "Yes, but Mr. Tam has already left Zhenjie Fort."
"oh?"
Gong Hu smiled dryly and said: "According to the agreement, we have no right to interfere with the consultant's actions."
"knew."
Li Liang nodded.
I think Tam is still stranded on Earth and just went to a certain city. If it happens to be Zhongjing, I think we will see him again soon.
At the table, Child Li was teasing Zhizhi, while Seolise stood beside her with an aunty smile on her face.
Gong Hu looked at them deeply, turned and left.
The reception room fell silent.
Li Liang sat down casually and watched Li Xiaobao accurately interpret a direct descendant of Zhuosi who was ruthless and smart enough, but retained just the right amount of innocence, making people like Gong Hu feel worthy of support and able to control.
The precise grasp of the scale far exceeds the IQ of a seven-year-old girl.
Is this a child trained by a wealthy family?
Li Liang's head hurts just thinking about this kind of thing.
Shaking his head, he simply stood up and walked to the glass curtain wall, looking at the Deep Sea Gate suspended in mid-air in the distance.
Closing his eyes, he found that under normal circumstances, the spirit here was indeed extremely thin.
Not to mention forming a surging wave, they couldn't even form a cluster, they just shone one by one.
He remembered that the first time he saw the spirit with the help of Tata's Horcrux was like this. It was on the Defiant, not far from the land, which showed that the spirit on the entire earth should be so thin.
It's almost no different from a desert.
No wonder Tata said at the time that his Horcruxes were exhausted. In such a rare environment, the use of magic could only rely on the reserves in the Horcruxes, which would reach the bottom after a few uses.
Thinking of Tata, Li Liang suddenly recalled that the reason why Tata wanted to assassinate him as soon as they met was because his soul could replenish his soul. This information used to be of little value, but now it seems very crucial.
So, the soul of a person with "inspiration" can replenish the spirit?
Fortunately, he now has a spiritual core in his pocket, which is equivalent to a large battery. Even if the spirit in the double-ring ring is exhausted, he will not be looking for people to kill him all over the world.
As soon as his thoughts changed, Li Liang raised his right hand and looked at the double ring.
At this moment, the spirit flowing through the double ring is still surging, but the spirit absorbed from the surroundings is quite pitiful.
One spirit after another bursts out from all around and throws itself into it. The morning glory feeds the cows and is of no use to anything.
Li Liang sighed silently. He still didn't know how much spirit would be consumed by using one teleportation. He had to find an opportunity to do an experiment. After all, when it was time to fight, he couldn't let the enemy wait and wait for him to recharge.
However, thinking of "Introduction to Taoism" in his backpack, Li Liang opened his eyes and touched the faint sword tattoo on his left index finger. He suddenly thought, why did he forget about flying swords? Magic is not convenient, so he can practice Taoism. Technique.
Boom boom.
A knock on the door interrupted Li Liang's thoughts.
An engineer came in pushing a cart.
In a moment, there were more than ten plates on the table in the living room. In addition to three kinds of fruits, apples, oranges, and bananas, there were also sushi, sashimi, boiled cabbage, boiled radish, and boiled eggplant, plus a plate of fried vegetables. steak.
Little Li was not surprised. He filled a small bowl with soup and water and ate in small mouthfuls. He also didn't forget to feed Zhizhi. Zhizhi ate any kind of food with a face full of intoxication and felt that the monkey's life was worth it.
Saolis tasted several varieties cautiously, and finally ate only one apple.
Looking at the food on the table, Li Liang deeply condemned the Xi'an people's monopoly on materials and technology. Not to mention fresh vegetables, are cows for eating? I wonder if people in Xiacheng District could buy a cow as a pet from the "Xini Animal Catalog", would they want to let the cow sleep on the bed at night and make their own floors?
Very distressed, he pulled the steak in front of him, cut off a piece and put it in his mouth.
Alas, frying it until it is fully cooked is not very particular. It should be fried until it is medium-rare.
The meal was extremely quiet.
Neither man nor monkey wanted to talk.
Three hours later.
Li Liang and his party got into the submarine.
This submarine is obviously much more advanced than the one Yuan Zhen found.
Yuan Zhen was afraid of being monitored by Xi'an, so he had to find an antique diesel-powered car. But now, they were riding Xi'an's submarine.
The entire interior of the boat was extremely spacious, reminding Li Liang of the interior of a private jet he had seen online a thousand years ago.
Not only is there no odor, you can't even hear the engine running.
On the way to see him off, Gong Hu behaved extremely respectfully, and Li Xiaozi also showed moderate dependence on him. Master and servant seemed to be close and working together for a great cause.
But when Li Liang boarded the boat, he still saw scrutiny and suspicion in Gong Hu's eyes as he stared at Li's back.
Presumably, the sergeant major still had doubts about Li's ability to successfully get rid of his eldest daughter, and he was even more uncertain about Li's real thoughts.
Trusting each other is both very simple and very difficult.
Li Liang always felt that getting entangled in this kind of thing would only lead to a logical dead end of infinite matryoshka dolls.
He thought about when he first met Cain, at what moment did he choose to trust her?
Sitting on the large and comfortable seat, Li Liang closed his eyes.
This time he didn't pay attention to those graceful flying spirits, but fell asleep.
The dark and silent seabed.
In a continuous mountain range, six hemispherical active defense forts guard the central pyramid-shaped town boundary fort, forming a huge six-pointed star, exuding a faint blue light.
A submarine as small as dust emerged from the exit at the bottom of the pyramid and headed for the landing.
——————————
Three days later.
Zhongjing City, Dongjiang Port.
Due to the radiation, toxic gases and sandstorms outside the sky, ships have become a thing of the past and all transportation is done by submarines.
Giant submarines from six other cities surfaced and anchored in the port. Most of them belong to SoftBank. The hull depicts SoftBank’s emblem, a red and white checkered spindle.
This emblem is also printed on every banknote in circulation in the world, in front of every electronic signature, on every ATM machine, and on every biometric payment machine.
The time is now 7:20, the sky has not yet lighted up, but the port is already busy and full of people.
On the ground and in mid-air, there are anti-gravity cargo ships passing by everywhere.
There are more than ten passenger boats moored at the innermost pier of the port.
Since transit approval is very troublesome, and these days, every city is pretty much the same, so going to other cities is neither necessary nor interesting.
Therefore, there have always been very few passenger boats.
Pier 1 underwater.
A submarine belonging to Xi'an did not surface. Instead, it went straight into the port underground from the exclusive channel and docked at a special dock more than ten minutes later.
The hatch opens.
Li Liang climbed out along the hanging ladder and looked around.
The entire dock is completely enclosed indoors, with hundreds of gas lamps illuminating the surroundings as bright as day.
The only person who greeted them was a middle-aged man with an oriental face, wearing a cheap suit. After seeing Li Liang, he was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked: "Who are you?"
Li, who had just climbed out of the submarine, said calmly: "My people."
"Oh," the man's level was obviously much lower than Gong Hu's, and he hurriedly smiled and said, "Seventh Princess, it's me who talks too much."
"It's okay," Li said childishly, "Director Zhang, where is the car?"
"Everything is ready, let's go this way," the man named Director Zhang guided him to the side and led the way.
Li Liang glanced at Director Zhang's back.
I don’t know if this man’s name is Director Zhang, or if his surname is Zhang and his position is Director? Moreover, he always felt that this person looked familiar.
After walking for ten minutes, the group walked out of the pier, passed through a narrow passage, and emerged from the back alley of a certain street.
Standing on the roadside, Li Liang was stunned.
Third Avenue?
He had been to this place many times, but he had never discovered that there was a dock hidden here.
Turning around, I saw a tall building standing at the end of the back alley. From the vaulted roof, it looked like a warehouse.
At this glance, Li Liang recognized it. It turned out that there was a secret dock inside this warehouse, which allowed Xi'an people to take a submarine directly to the core city of Zhongjing.
At this time, a black airship landed from mid-air and stopped at the entrance of the alley.
"Please," Director Zhang opened the car door.
Li kid raised his chin: "You get in the car first."
"Huh? Oh," Director Zhang got into the passenger seat and turned up the music so loud that the glass windows of the airship rumbled with the music.
"Mr. Prophet," Li kid raised his little face, "Can I do business with you again?"
Li Liang smiled: "Do you still have a spiritual core?"
"No more," Li Child narrowed his eyes and said in a sly tone, "You said you would give me a discount next time, and this is the next time."
"Yes," Li Liang said seriously, "so I only need half a spiritual core to be my godfather. If you don't have any, I'll pay you first."
"..."
Child Li snorted: "Stingy guy."
"Okay," Li Liang rubbed her hair, "I wish you success." After saying that, he nodded to Saolis.
With his hair fluttering, Li Child raised his head and said, "Goodbye, Mr. Prophet."
Saolis placed a huge backpack on the ground. The backpack was found from the submarine and replaced the broadleaf bag. It was filled with Hermes' Dream, Flora's Memories and a portable communicator.
"Holy Prophet," the witch said with reluctance, "save my father, and I will follow you all my life to find the true destination of my soul." It was obvious that she thought about this sentence many times on the way here before she could say it so smoothly. As he spoke, he knelt down.
Li Liang supported Saolis and was also very emotional.
He could feel that what the witch said at this moment was completely consistent with her inner thoughts, and she had no distracting thoughts. Perhaps this was pure faith.
He imitated the god's voice again and said in a low voice: "Chaos."
Saolis trembled all over, holding Li Liang's arm tightly with her right hand, lowering her head and saying, "Chaos." The silver double-ring ring on her index finger and middle finger instantly lit up.
Finally, Child Li and Saolis touched Zhizhi's head respectively and got into the airship.
The airship jumped into the sky and disappeared into the night sky.
Li Liang turned to look at the time displayed on a nearby tall building: 7:58.
Zhizhi~
Zhizhi jumped on Li Liang's shoulders, held his head with one hand, and looked around.
Li Liang smiled, picked up the backpack on the ground, looked up at the sky and said, "Zhizhi, look up."
Zhizhi raised his head and looked at the sky with Li Liang.
Eight o'clock sharp.
The sky started to light up from the east. Accompanied by the brisk music, a magnificent ray of light flowed through the sky, and finally converged into a line of artistic words in the middle of the sky:
Hyanthus
Then the sky completely lit up, like a huge dome, covering the entire city of Zhongjing.
A smiling and energetic voice came from the dome: "Good morning, it is eight o'clock in the morning on September 3, 3027, dear citizens, it will rain from 13:00 to 15:00 today, citizens who like rainy days Don’t miss it, ah, let us thank Xi’an together!”
"Thank you Xi'an!" The background sound of countless people shouting in unison played on the sky screen.
The "sunshine" was dazzling, and soon there was more traffic on the main street, while the airships in mid-air and high altitude were orderly, like fast-flowing chains, layered on top of each other to form a dense network between high-rise buildings.
Zhizhi was stunned, Li Liang smiled and patted its back, looked around in the direction, picked up his backpack, and walked forward leisurely.
Third Street and Fifth Street are not far away. After walking along Huishan Road for more than 20 minutes, Li Liang suddenly saw an airship with two pointed ends at the intersection. Conspicuously, a canopy was propped out in the middle of the boat, and cages were placed under the canopy, with white smoke billowing out.
Old Tang?
Li Liang approached in a daze.
"Huh? Li Liang, I haven't seen you for a while," Old Tang looked over and said in surprise, grinning when he saw the monkey on Li Liang's shoulder, "Hey, did you buy a monkey? That's cool, it turned out to be somewhere else. Got rich."
Li Liang suddenly didn't know what to say, but the squeak on his shoulder seemed to understand, and he grinned at Old Tang.
"Boss Mei is rarely seen without you," Old Tang shook his head, then pointed at the signboard as if remembering something, "Hey, there's new wontons with leek and egg fillings, do you want to try them?"
"..."
Li Liang shook his head: "Quit."
"Ah?" Old Tang was stunned for a moment, "Why did you quit?"
"See you later, Old Tang."
Li Liang said, turning right and walking forward, waving his hand without looking back.
"Hey? Baozi, do you want Baozi?"
Old Tang shouted and watched Li Liang leave, the smile on his face slowly disappearing.
"Boss, how much are these wontons?" a customer asked.
Old Tang said in a low voice: "Get out of here."
"You..." The man was about to curse, but was startled by Old Tang's eyes. He swallowed the second half of his sentence and ran away in despair.
Old Tang walked back into the pilot's seat of the airship, pulled out a walkie-talkie-like intercom from under the central control system, pressed the button on the side, and said with a chilling voice: "He's back, we can get started."
the other side.
Li Liang walked slowly, but his expression was not calm.
Just now, he actually saw... a Horcrux from Old Tang.
Although Old Tang's Horcrux was weak and lifeless, it was slowly attracting the surrounding spirits.
This thing is so weird.
When did he start buying buns from Old Tang?
While thinking, Li Liang suddenly stopped.
because.
Massey Bionic Pet Hospital has arrived.
The two-story building is still the same as before, and the sign composed of neon tubes is still lit outside the second-floor window.
The door of the "Ford SLOW" drugstore on the first floor was locked, and the letter S on the signboard had fallen off, leaving only "Ford LOW".
Li Liang patted Zhizhi on his shoulder and whispered, "We're home."
He slowly walked into the back alley, walked up the barbed wire stairs step by step, and stood in front of the clinic.
The back alley is quiet.
The air is slightly cool and filled with the smell of wet haze.
Li Liang raised his hand and reached for the door handle, but it stopped in mid-air.
He pursed his lips hard, hesitated for a moment, then gently held the door handle and pressed his thumb on the fingerprint recognition.
drop.
The lock is unlocked.
