In the Battle of the Citadel, the space station closed the petal-shaped guard area early. Therefore, throughout the war, although the Citadel Guard Fleet was almost completely lost, the buildings in the Citadel were protected by 70-meter-thick super armor, except for the building that was demolished by a manic young lady. Except, the rest were virtually unscathed.
But in line with the words "It's a blessing, not a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided" - when the battle of the Citadel was about to end victoriously - the space station opened, and the "overlord" reapers rushing out were met by countless battleships. A severe blow, and an overload air explosion occurred on the spot!
Then the millions of warship fragments produced after the "Overlord" Reaper was destroyed fell from an altitude of several kilometers, directly destroying nearly 40% of the buildings in the Citadel ring area! Perhaps the only good thing is that because the ring area is close to the center of the entire galaxy - the Citadel Tower - the main residents living here are politicians from various countries...
*****
In the heavy rain, countless people are cleaning up the disaster area in the rain... In fact, the rescue of personnel is secondary, the main thing is to seize the time to rescue the fragments of the Reaper warship! Everyone can see how powerful the Reaper warship is. It may be a warship that is several generations ahead of the current highest level warship in the galaxy. Such a warship undoubtedly represents the crystallization of countless cutting-edge technologies. Perhaps a fragment can bring about a technological revolution.
The entire disaster relief work was in order. Humans and the three major races, who temporarily dominated the situation in the Citadel, silently divided into "rag picking" areas. Within the area of the four major races. There are huge craters created by large debris exceeding 100 meters in size, which is the main basis for classification. Then collect them separately for the time being and focus on research in the future.
The entry and exit routes of several spacecraft are clearly marked. Even precipitation is implemented clockwise and in different regions. In order to avoid causing secondary damage, all large construction machinery is prohibited from entering. The disaster relief personnel are all scientific researchers. They wear heavy armor that is not only waterproof and radiation-proof, but can also serve as humanoid cranes. Researchers can easily move tons of building fragments with their bare hands, but once they see fragments that look like synthetic bodies, they must pick them up carefully, like picking up a child...
In such a busy scene, there were two people standing on the bridge on one side in a very disharmonious manner. Watching in a dignified manner. But what’s even more amazing is all the flying cars and people flying around in the rain. But they all turned a blind eye.
"What are you doing in the castle?! At this time... you should be very busy." The main god "Catalyst" held an umbrella, looked at the young man in front of him with an unhappy face, and asked. Obviously he just wanted to go out and relax, but he met the person who caused him the most trouble. Of course it's very unpleasant.
"Before going to bed, go out for a walk and find a place to carve 'come here for a visit'." Lao Lu pointed casually, and those four big characters were engraved on the gate of the giant tower of the Citadel! The catalyst was so angry that he was fuming. Lu Yuan pretended not to see it, and continued with a smile, "Looking back when I talk about traveling to the world of Mass Effect, but I have never visited the Citadel... I will be questioned as coming from the countryside." Originally, when he saw the catalyst, he also Very angry - anyone who was tricked to death would be like this. But I found that the catalyst was also sulking. Lao Lu suddenly became happy.
"Who allowed you to walk around and write on my territory!" the catalyst said arrogantly. He has lived in the Citadel for tens of millions of years. He said that the Citadel is his...it is true. And the Citadel Tower is like his home...
"Who said I was walking around randomly? I'm suing you for defamation by talking nonsense." Lao Lu leisurely patted the armrest. There was a "pop, pop" sound in the rain, "I've been sitting down all the time." The implication is that the "random carving" item was accepted by default.
Hearing Lu Yuan's nonsense, Catalyst frowned and stopped talking.
In the pouring rain, the two people just stopped on the bridge and looked at each other calmly.
A man is holding an umbrella and has an invisible air mask on his body. Isolate the rain and moisture from the body; while the other person is sitting in an old wheelchair without an umbrella or rain gear. No matter how heavy the rain drenched him, he was soaked in water. It's just that Lu Yuan has his own magnanimity and doesn't look embarrassed even if he's soaked to the skin. His feeling of comfort when being caught in the rain even made Catalyst feel infected when he looked at it, and he had the urge to throw away his umbrella.
After a long time, the two people suddenly laughed at the same time, and the tense atmosphere disappeared instantly.
"You came to the Citadel secretly, aren't you afraid that I will force you to stay?" Catalyst asked curiously. At this moment today, when he stepped on the bridge, he ran into Lu Yuan who was coming from the opposite direction. This really made him feel the wonder of fate, even as the Lord God he couldn't get rid of it... This made him feel very good.
Lu Yuan shook his head calmly, "I believe you won't - because the catalyst I know is not a person with no bottom line."
Catalyst's appearance is not very old, he looks like a rebellious junior high school student. So after he heard Lu Yuan's words, he was not overwhelmed, but said curiously, "Actually... I have been tricked by you so many times, and I really want to cross the line once." After saying that, Catalyst reached out to Lu Yuan With a finger, Lu Yuan's world... whether it was the wheel that was about to turn or the rain that was falling, everything was frozen in the air.
But after Catalyst did this, Lu Yuan seemed to have expected it, and there was no trace of surprise on his face. He casually changed into a comfortable position in the wheelchair, resting his chin on his elbow, and looked at the catalyst with interest. Although the wheelchair was obviously frozen, the man himself looked completely untethered. "Sorry, I'm just a projection now."
Lao Lu smiled proudly, "In comparison, the lower limit is still lower."
"Damn it!" Catalyst cursed in a low voice and took his hand back. "I don't want to see you again, goodbye!" Catalyst said coldly.
"Goodbye!" The rain that had accumulated when the space was solidified was now captured like an iron plate, finally making Lu Yuan miserable. He could only hurriedly adjust his hair while waving at the catalyst a few times, "You should leave quickly, it's never nice to see you!"
Seeing Lu Yuan break through the Eight Winds Immovable Kung Fu, Catalyst seemed to have won a game and asked with a smile, "Which direction are you facing?"
"I'm heading east." Lu Yuan pointed in the direction he originally wanted to go.
"Then I'll go west," Catalyst said.
The two people passed each other on the bridge in the stormy weather without looking back.
*****
"It's magic again this time..." Catalyst, who walked across the bridge, gradually lost his smile.
Under Lu Yuan's magic, he had suffered several losses, overtly or covertly. Especially the magic ritual used by Lu Yuan to create Hades was far beyond Catalyst's expectations, giving Catalyst a deep headache! If he didn't have a back-up plan, he might have lost the opportunity to compete in this world. "It seems that magic is also a profound knowledge. My previous views were too narrow... I need to study it carefully... No!"
Catalyst suddenly stopped and said, "I was deceived again. That was not a projection just now!"
How could the projection get wet in the rain? ! Why do you need to fix your hair for projection? ! "Damn it!" Catalyst gritted his teeth and turned around suddenly... But on the empty bridge, only the heavy rain like arrows was still falling non-stop. Where was the shadow of Lu Yuan? !
"Just wait, I will catch you one day!" Based on Catalyst's understanding of Lu Yuan, once he is out of sight, he will choose the shortest route and retreat immediately! It's almost a minute now and he might be leaving the castle! Catalyst could only say a few words and leave angrily.
Under the bridge... Lu Yuan grabbed his wheelchair and held his breath in the narrow space directly under the bridge, just a hair away from the swollen river. He didn't move, didn't breathe, and even his temperature dropped to the same level as the bridge. Except for sticking to the bottom of the bridge using the Gecko Wall Technique, his whole body completely transformed into a stone.
It took a long time until it was confirmed that the catalyst had left. Lu Yuancai let out a long sigh of relief and dispersed all his energy. Let yourself and the wheelchair fall into the river and drift away with the waves.
How did he know that he could meet the Catalyst head-on! He doesn't even know how he came to the Citadel! Moreover, he was paralyzed from a high position, and all his martial arts, magic, and heavenly powers were completely gone! If he didn't have some strange ability to manipulate the world, he would even be arrested as a vagabond by the c-sec police.
You know, Lu Yuan entered the cultivation cabin with consciousness and then fell asleep on his own initiative - so when he opened his eyes and found that he was in the Citadel, Lu Yuan thought he was dreaming until he hit the catalyst...

ps1: The chapter name of the previous chapter is "fullhouse", not Full House... Sweat! It is a poker term, "three identical cards and two identical cards", which means a good card that can win the next round.
ps2: The plot of meeting in the rain was actually guessed by book friends... I was very confused, but I still wrote it. (To be continued)
