Xia Zishu lowered his head and stared at the green light condensed between his hands, frowned imperceptibly, and tried to use the Bodhi Sanqing on himself again, carefully feeling the blood recovery skill slowly flowing through his body, and then As if the mental power was swallowed by some force, it slowly gathered somewhere in the body and gradually disappeared.
Xia Zishu dispersed the magician skills condensed in his hands, but his frown did not relax. It seemed that it was not his imagination. Since he almost exhausted his mental energy to use the anger skill, the mental energy that his Bodhi Sanqing blood recovery skill can restore has become very little.
Xia Zishu breathed a sigh of relief. For the time being, he did not dare to use the Bodhi Sanqing to restore his mental power. If things continued like this, the mental power he could recover would be far less than the mental power he had consumed. In the end, his mental power would only dry up. The magician skills can no longer be used.
At this time, the door to the lounge opened, and Claire walked in with a tray: "Master Xia."
Xia Zishu stood up and his eyes fell on the tray held by Claire, with two tubes of medicine on it.
Claire chuckled lightly, put the tray on the table, picked up two tubes of medicine and walked towards Xia Zishu and said: "I know that Master Xia can recover his mental power on his own, but... the admiral is very worried about Master Xia and ordered the medical room to prepare for Master Xia. The potion to restore mental strength, please Master Xia not to let down the admiral's wishes."
Xia Zishu curled his lips slightly, took the two tubes of medicine without any hesitation, pulled out the stopper and drank it. The taste was light and tasteless, but it was not particularly unpleasant. He put the empty medicine tube back on the tray. He looked back at Claire who looked relieved and smiled softly.
"Claire, what's the situation outside?" Xia Zishu stopped Claire who was about to leave. After he was brought back to the base by Claire, he was "locked" into the lounge. Xing Muge cut off all his communications. He tried After contacting Tai Lun and Tang En, they found that their permissions had also been changed by Xing Muge.
The corner of Xia Zishu's mouth twitched, knowing that he was in the wrong, so he did not make unreasonable trouble with Xing Muge.
"This..." Claire looked at Xia Zishu in embarrassment. Seeing the worried look on Xia Zishu's face, she sighed, "The admiral didn't let me tell Young Master Xia, lest Young Master Xia worry and disturb Young Master Xia's rest. ..."
Xia Zishu felt anxious and asked anxiously: "Are you still unable to stop the strange beast from attacking?"
"Don't worry, Master Xia. The general is here and the situation is under control. It's just..." Claire's brows were filled with confusion and worry. Now they have only temporarily controlled the situation and put those crazy high-ranking people under control. Alien beasts are forced back into areas 8 and 9 of the San Sebas Forest.
However, if the reason for the attack of the alien beasts cannot be found out, the consequences will only get worse, and the tragedy of the year will happen again. This is not the result that the Ninth Legion, or even the entire empire, wants to see, but everyone can see it. , the reason for the alien beast attack this time may not be as simple as it was back then.
Xia Zishu nodded thoughtfully: "The collective attack of the alien beasts back then seemed to be due to the pressure of the appearance of level 10 alien beasts. Perhaps it is more appropriate to say that they were just running for their lives. This time they did not attack. They were running around, but instead attacking and biting each other, as if they had completely lost control."
"Master Yixia, could it be that..." Claire immediately understood the meaning of Xia Zishu's words, her expression became extremely serious, and her eyes were full of anger, "If this is really the case, the Ninth Legion will never tolerate it. We must find out the culprit, because that is the safety of the entire capital planet. How can we treat the safety of the entire capital planet as a child's play just because of our own selfish interests?"
Xia Zishu shook his head lightly, with a cold look in his eyes: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Now that Mu Ge and I are getting married, some people have been restless for a long time. I don't know how many people are involved in this matter. Maybe even people from the royal family are involved. There is some interference, the only one they feared from the beginning to the end was the Ninth Legion, and the only one they wanted to destroy... was me."
How could Claire not understand all this? The imperial royal family has always been like this. They need to rely on the protection of the legion, but they are also afraid of the legion's powerful achievements. Starting from the first legion of Marshal Xing, the harmony between the imperial royal family and the marshal's mansion has been becomes a superficial form.
The empire cannot live without the protection of the Marshal's Mansion, but the Marshal's Mansion, from the First Legion to Xing Muge's Ninth Legion, has an unshakable position in the entire empire. The civilians of the empire trust the Marshal's Mansion and respect the First Legion and the Ninth Legion.
Nine Legions, compared to the flashy royal family, the civilians of the empire have greater expectations and deeper faith in the Marshal's Mansion.
"So Master Xia must protect himself, not only for Master Xia's family, himself and the general, but also for the entire Marshal's Mansion and even the entire empire." Claire said sincerely, "Master Xia may not know something, but we This group of people who have followed the general since childhood can understand better than anyone how difficult it is for the general to establish the Ninth Army and get to this point today. For the general and the Ninth Army, losing one's life is really a trivial matter. The glory of the Ninth Army Corps and the Marshal's Mansion, and the safety of the empire, are the most unshakable beliefs, which cannot tolerate any flaws, let alone anyone's arbitrary actions and slander."
Claire's tone was gentle, as if he was describing an ordinary trivial matter, but Xia Zishu clearly felt the determination deep in Claire's heart, which was the will to follow Xing Muge and the Ninth Legion to the death. He silently Staring down at his hands.
Claire looked at Xia Zishu with a sincere smile on her lips: "In all these years, we have never seen the Admiral have such a big mood swing. Even when he faced mental exhaustion, the Admiral never even frowned. "
Xia Zishu turned to look at Claire and said softly: "I was thinking wrongly."
Claire smiled: "I wish Master Xia could understand."
Xia Zishu chuckled and joked: "He modified all my communication permissions and made me 'isolated from the world.'" It seemed that he was really angry. But under the circumstances, I had no choice. As you said, the Ninth Legion cannot make any mistakes, but next time we encounter such a crisis, I will definitely inform him in advance. "
"I believe the admiral will understand Master Xia's intentions." Claire's words were filled with deep gratitude.
Xia Zishu nodded: "Until the situation is clear, we can only passively station in the San Sebas Forest and cannot move a step. Once the scope of the alien beast's attack spreads, the consequences will be unimaginable. Not only will the capital planet be plunged into In dire straits, the most terrifying thing is probably those people hiding behind, waiting for this moment. So the more serious the situation is, the more we must stay calm. No one can get into trouble, and we must not lose control."
Claire thought for a moment and sighed: "By now, those people have probably done everything possible. If this attack by the alien beasts is really man-made, everyone in the Ninth Legion may not be safe."
Xia Zishu looked indifferent and said in a deep voice: "The first outbreak point of the alien beast attack was in Area 8 of the San Severas Forest, which is exactly the area where the Ninth Legion is stationed, and the training range for students from various military academies in the Capital Star. They are all outside Area 5. Area 6 is stationed by my father’s Third Army, and Area 7 is stationed by Lieutenant General Will’s men. It is a little difficult for Area 6 to cross Area 7 and enter Area 8, but it is not impossible. To be cautious, I will inform my father about this, and Lieutenant General Will can only wait for Mu Ge to come back to make arrangements."
"Master Xia has thought carefully. I will contact the general immediately." Claire said and was about to leave the lounge.
"Having said that, I always feel..." Xia Zishu said in a very calm tone, "Whether it is District 6 or District 7, those who can enter District 8 and tamper with the strange beasts in District 8 must not be ordinary people. .”
Claire was silent for a while, and then said slightly angrily: "I know what Master Xia is going to say. Without certain authority, such a large-scale activity should have attracted the attention of the Ninth Legion, but the matter is now over, no matter what the other party has. Reasons, the consequences that have resulted today, must be paid.”
Xia Zishu nodded, walked to Claire and said, "I'll go to the main control room with you..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Zishu suddenly felt a shaking under his feet, followed by the shaking of the earth. He subconsciously threw himself forward to hold the table, feeling an unprecedented pressure sweeping over him. He just thought I set myself a Dark Wind body protection skill, and the next second I felt like the world was spinning, and I almost couldn't stand and fell to the ground.
"Master Xia..." Claire quickly supported Xia Zishu and said in shock, "Master Xia, are you okay?"
Xia Zishu shook his head with difficulty and looked a little pale: "Contact Mu Ge first and ask him about the situation there. I'm not too worried."
Claire couldn't bear the pressure. He helped Xia Zishu to the bed and then
He quickly turned on the optical brain on his wrist and sent a communication request to Xing Muge, but the other party did not respond.
"Master Xia, you stay in the lounge first while I go to the main control room." Claire said and turned around to leave.
"I'll go with you." Xia Zishu endured the discomfort and stood up to follow Claire's footsteps.
"But your body..."
"Such a big shock came extremely suddenly. Mu Ge and I both have 3S level mental powers. I can feel that the pressure just now is definitely not lower than 2S level. Perhaps it is because the base is far away from the center of the pressure explosion. The pressure left only the aftermath, but if the pressure from the alien beast just broke out, it was definitely a level 10 alien beast." Xia Zishu analyzed with a serious expression.
Claire was shocked when she heard this: "Level 10? Can Master Xia be sure?"
Xia Zishu nodded slowly: "However, I don't feel the danger...wait..."
Xia Zishu seemed to have remembered something, his heart beat violently, and his face became extremely anxious. He quickly walked to the door of the lounge, turned around and said to Claire: "It's the Bifang cub... No wonder I always feel the threat just now." There is a sense of familiarity, something must have happened to Bifang, Claire, let’s go to the main control room quickly..."
Before Xia Zishu finished speaking, he felt the dizziness getting stronger and stronger. His vision went dark and he fell down. Before losing consciousness, Claire's panicked face flashed before his eyes, and the other party's hoarse "Master Xia" echoed in his ears. "Screaming, he smiled bitterly in his heart. This time he used the anger skill without permission, which was really a big deal.
