The void invades.
When the first ferocious monster tore open the gap and a pair of scarlet eyes greedily scanned everything around it, the survey team standing near the gap understood that Muqi would be the first stop of the second void invasion. .
The survey team is a special army formed by Mr. Muqi himself. No one knows what they do. When asked by outsiders, Mr. Muqi always says: "Now is not the time."
However, only these survey team members know that when they are truly exposed to the public, they will not receive praise or glory. As the only legion composed of one hundred and twenty "detonators", they were not tolerated by the world from the moment they knew their mission.
What they have to do is simple, detonate the void.
Detonate a bomb against the gods.
Of course, bombs that can harm or even kill gods will never let go of ordinary lives. These one hundred and thirty survey team members, who kept their names anonymous and later changed their identities through various operations, understood that as long as the bomb exploded, they would become the most terrifying executioners in human history.
Although the underground shelter built by Mr. Muqi can protect nearly 70% of the residents, those who have not had time to enter the shelter or the legions fighting on the ground will be completely annihilated by the bomb. in reality. There will be no corpses left, and no traces will be left. Everyone on the survey team has seen that scene, a horrific scene that makes one's soul tremble.
Therefore, the survey team never felt that they were heroes who died together with the enemy.
"Prepare."
Close the arm armor, put on the tactical backpack, and fasten the buckle at the waist. The man in light armor raised his right hand, then lowered it heavily, his eyes full of calm.
One hundred and nineteen similarly dressed survey team members behind him stood at attention and saluted. In front of them is the passage leading to the node that has been built long ago. The dark and deep passage is like an abyss snake with a big mouth. It stares at these people who are about to die and are about to kill at least 100 people with cold vertical pupils. A team of hundreds of thousands of people.
"Twelve nodes in total."
The captain of the survey team did not look back, and his voice was very loud: "This time to prepare for the saturation detonation, ten people will be dispatched to each node, nine of them will be on standby, and the remaining one will prepare for the detonation. According to the order that has been arranged, the team leader started to alert in turn. The outside world to prevent void creatures from destroying."
"The reserved time after detonation is one minute. During this minute, everyone must do their best to leave the detonation site."
The captain's voice was very cold. He stared at the node tunnel that was about to swallow them up, with unspeakable will in his eyes: "We spent fifty years forgetting everything."
"Forget who we are, forget our past, and forget the glory we once gained."
The survey team behind them all spoke, and their loud and determined voices filled this secretly built underground building.
"But we can never forget the hatred, the injustice we suffered, and what they did."
On the light armor, the lines containing violent power gradually shone with a pale golden light. This is the rune that the man once personally engraved in the depths of their souls. This was also the highest honor.
The coat of arms of the Chonghuang Legion.
"We are not heroes and we are not warriors."
The coat of arms spread over their bodies, covering every inch of skin on this group of people. What appeared in their eyes were the most shining lines ever. When the former Chonghuang Legion and today's survey team took their first step, the golden light dimmed and darkness filled the air.
"We are just innocent souls holding on to hatred."
Without any communication or instructions, in front of the twelve forking roads, the original hundred-man army suddenly dispersed into twelve squads and entered the tunnels. They know their fate, but they don't care.
*************************************
"One hundred and thirty-two."
The old man looked at the God of Death who was constantly waving his sickle, and made a hellish joke to Him with deep ridicule: "They say people will see revolving doors when they die, why haven't you been caught by my eyes yet?" What about being blinded?"
One hundred and thirty-three.
After twisting his unconscious and numb neck, the old man coughed twice, and then said with a slightly self-deprecating smile: "It's weird, why do I always like to tell these cold jokes."
One hundred and thirty-fourth.
"Oh, I almost forgot, that brat Qi Mu passed it on to me."
His cheek was torn, the old man licked his lips covered with blood, and muttered to himself with a hint of confusion: "Do you think if Qi Mu was here, would he be so aggressive that he would kill You directly?" Did God tell me to die?"
People who like to tell cold jokes are the easiest to laugh. After letting out an extremely harsh laugh, the old man looked at the God of Death who was looking for his soul fragment, and asked him as if he was concerned about an elder: "Have you found it? Not found. Tell me and I will taunt louder..."
One hundred and thirty-five.
The sickle cut off the old man's leg bone, but his soul still did not dissipate. The severe pain at that moment came quickly, but to Mr. Muqi, who was already in pieces, it was nothing.
"Let me think about what Qi Mu will say at this time..."
Ignoring the pain in his body, the old man rolled his eyes, pulled on his torn vocal cords, and spoke to the God of Death in a harsh tone of gear friction: "Urgent."
It seemed as if he was really stung by the old man's words, or maybe it was the old man who kept killing him that made him feel impatient. The God of Death waved his sickle faster, but no matter what, he could not kill the soul of this dying old man as he did in the past. There would always be those stagnant voices and prayers that hindered him, preventing him from easily finding those souls. Scattered soul fragments.
"He always said some weird things to me. One of them left a deep impression on me, which is that villains die from talking too much."
The old man sneered, with memories in his eyes: "Maybe it's cultural differences. I feel like I'm more of a villain in this scenario. But the problem is, I've been nagging for so long, why can't I die? Woolen cloth?"
The old man who has always been elegant and easy-going in front of outsiders is really elegant and easy-going this time.
"Do you know why you can't kill me?"
Lowering his head and looking at the God of Death who was tirelessly waving his sickle, the old man twitched his lips, his face full of ridicule: "The rule of the goddess of justice is that she must execute all contracts, even if they are unintentional words. "
"The rules of the goddess of life are that she can only control life and is not allowed to create life."
The one hundred and thirty-sixth time.
"Cough, cough, cough."
The bone marrow was extracted, and the old man bent down and coughed twice, but he did not stop speaking and continued: "I studied your rules for a long time before I figured them out."
He raised his head, his cloudy eyes full of mockery, and he seemed to see the sad look of the tiger trapped in the zoo saying to the frog, it would take me three days to walk around the outside world.
"You can only kill the damned, right?"
****************************************
"What exactly are we looking for?"
While walking between tall buildings, Xiao Ke looked at Zhou Li aside, with lingering doubts in his expression: "You said we want to find Emperor Chong, but how are we going to find him?"
Zhou Li did not use any investigative skills along the way. He just followed Kaya's instructions and shuttled through the building. He would kick a trash can on the side of the road and sit on a chair. He just couldn't sit still and always did some weird things.
"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements."
After wandering around for a long time and getting nothing. Zhou Li finally confirmed his guess. He suddenly stretched out his hand and left two characters in the air with black mist. He turned his head to look at Kaya who was thinking about something and asked softly: "Kaya, do you know these two words?"
"well?"
Being called suddenly made Kaya stunned for a moment. She raised her head and replied calmly: "I know you."
"Gift."
After answering Zhou Li's words accurately, Zhou Li smiled and snapped his fingers to close the black mist. Then he said to Kaya: "Have you ever seen this kind of writing in this city?"
"this…"
Kaya frowned slightly and shook her head, "My memory is relatively vague. I only have a general impression of this city. If I want to talk about specific characters, I should..."
Suddenly, Kaya seemed to recall something. Her pupils tightened and her voice sounded urgent: "Wait a minute, I have seen this text."
A true smile appeared on Zhou Li's face. Kaya took a deep breath, pointed in a familiar direction, and said softly: "This is the font on my house's house number."
really.
Zhou Li chuckled in his heart, and then felt a little emotional. No matter how many years pass, the words of my hometown can never be forgotten.
Yes, the text Zhou Li showed Kaya just now is Chinese characters.
Regarding clues, Zhou Li determined that Chonghuang had only two options. First, the clues are extremely conspicuous and placed everywhere. The advantage of this is that if people are not mentally retarded later on, they will definitely be able to see the clues left by Emperor Chong. But the disadvantage is also the same. Who knows who the latecomers are, or whether they are human beings.
After looking for a few places familiar to fellow earthlings, Zhou Li decided that the first option was impossible, and then he turned to the second option. That is to say, the clues left by Emperor Chong will be very hidden, but for certain groups, this clue is easy to obtain.
This time, Zhou Li guessed correctly. Chonghuang hid the clues in the least eye-catching, but very classic place - words.
If you want to find the clues left by Emperor Chong, you must first understand Chinese characters. This is also to distinguish whether this latecomer is an earthling. The second is to save Kaya or gain Kaya's trust. Only by meeting these two points can we find the traces left by Emperor Chong.
After receiving this crucial news, Zhou Li and his party walked vigorously towards Kaya's house. After a while, a small single-family building that was unique but no different from other surrounding buildings appeared in front of everyone. And the hanging door plate also had Chinese characters familiar to Zhou Li written on it.
Of course, the door numbers of the surrounding houses are also filled with Chinese characters, but they are all nonsense and reorganized words that do not make sense. If you don't know Chinese characters, you won't be able to tell the difference between the two.
"Kaya, this is your home."
However, what everyone did not expect was that when Zhou Li was only one step away from the clue, he did not push the door open and enter. Instead, he looked at Kaya aside and asked for her opinion in a calm tone: "You decide who goes in and the rules after entering the house."
"ah?"
Kaya was stunned for a moment. In fact, although her emotions towards humans were very complicated, there was always a force deep in her heart urging her to protect these humans. She originally thought that Zhou Li would go in directly. After all, after such a long exchange, she also knew that Emperor Chong was a very important figure to them. But when he was only one step away from this figure, Zhou Li I chose to ask for her opinion.
After a moment, Kaya came back to her senses and said, "Ain...and you, come in with me, okay?"
Zhou Li nodded, this was exactly what he wanted. Ain on the side stepped forward and stood beside Kaya. After detecting Kaya's fingerprints, the small but delicate door slowly opened, and the three of them walked into the house.
Kaya's home is very simple, and the layout is very much like the earth in Zhou Li's impression. The first thing you see is a living room with three sofas surrounding a silver-white coffee table with tea cups suspended on it. Not far away is a huge screen, but there is no projection facility.
The moment Zhou Li closed the door, the white screen suddenly opened. Accompanied by the sound of elegant music, light and shadow intertwined, and a figure appeared on the screen.
"Hello."
Looking at the strange yet familiar figure on the screen, Zhou Li's mouth curved. He looked at the person on the screen and said with a smile, "Nice to see you."
"Mr. Chonghuang."
"Too polite."
That's right, what appeared on the screen was the third-generation hero who disappeared in the void and was finally defined as dead, Emperor Chong-Qi Mu.
Qi Mu is very young and looks about the same age as Zhou Li. The handsome Qi Mu looked very friendly on the screen. He looked at Zhou Li and said in a soft voice: "You must be the brave man of this class."
"Yeah, that's right."
Zhou Li nodded and responded: "At the same time, I am still your fellow countryman."
Qi Mu had already expected this. He nodded gently, and then looked at Kaya who had been silent. When she saw Kaya with purple hair and black eyes, Qi Mu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled happily: "Kaya, you have grown up."
"Who am I?"
Facing Qi Mu on the screen, Kaya seemed to have noticed something. She gritted her silver teeth and looked at Chonghuang with slightly crystal eyes. Her trembling voice made people feel pity: "What on earth am I...? "
"Before that, do you want to know the truth?"
Qi Mu did not answer her question directly. He looked at her with a complicated smile that made Kaya freeze in place.
