Chapter 136 The Savior’s Actions
"God Pillar..."

In the dead of night, in the luxurious guest rooms of the hotel, the dim yellow lights dim the white walls of the room, creating a drowsy atmosphere together with the faint scent of incense.

In this quiet space, a faint sigh sounded.

A woman in pajamas stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the small town in the distance.

Her long, half-black, half-grey hair cascades smoothly along her shoulder line. Her delicate face looks stern after taking off her glasses. The gaze in her pupils is more oppressive than the impression she usually gives others - her eyes are naturally sharp. It's difficult to change, so she chooses to wear glasses to make her attitude look softer.

After all, her job is that of a consultant, and she has to deal with people frequently. If she scares people away without speaking to them as soon as she starts talking to them, or makes others speak with trepidation, she won't be able to work well.

Of course, these are all trivial matters, and now Miying has no intention of caring about the opinions of irrelevant people.

Just a few hours after she fell asleep, she woke up from a nightmare with a sense of emotion, then hurriedly climbed out of bed, and received a call from the headquarters a few minutes later. The Eastern Sky Development Committee observed the emergence of "a type of super dangerous source" at several observation posts around the world; and in the half hour after that, they also observed a huge gravity well fluctuation - the energy level was several The most intense in a decade.

"A type of super dangerous source", also known as "The Coming of the Divine Pillar", is a paranormal phenomenon that the Committee...or rather all the people on this planet who know and pay attention to "another planet" cannot be unaware of.

Everyone is afraid, while some people are looking forward to this day. The last "divine pillar came" happened ten years ago, and the aftermath of the incident greatly changed the world structure.

Miying has always hated fanatic things, and even more hated fanaticism that is clearly mixed with dangerous factors. Everything about the divine pillar is like a trap, the big mouth of a man-eating plant, and the alluring aroma is just for... Hunting those mindless flying insects.

The God Pillar, an incredible existence, the most mysterious and mysterious life form in the universe - it allows mankind to obtain various extraordinary technologies that should not have appeared in this era: three types of people with superpowers, and people wearing plain clothes. An unparalleled warrior; but he also gradually pushed the human race to the edge of the cliff.

However, the "Adventure of the God Pillar" will greatly accelerate this process, because it will produce huge space chaos, further destroy and expand the gravity well effect between Alpha Star and the Earth, thereby accelerating the invasion process of invasive species.
Once the "kings" (or "gods") of the invading species, that is, the "overlords", generally have the ability to jump to the earth through gravity wells, then the destruction of the world can be said to be close at hand.

Sometimes, Mi Ying would think pessimistically: Maybe the reason why a civilization like Alpha Civilization, which is far more powerful and prosperous than humans, would fall to the hands of invading species is because they also have the same shortcomings as humans, which are imprinted on their biology. Egoism deep in our genes.

All this comes from the divine pillar.

However, it is not in line with Miying's personal philosophy to bet the balance of the world on a certain person instead of the joint cooperation of all mankind, even if this person is his best friend - because according to historical experience, God will protect you. , save and guide people, but may also become people’s enemies at any time.

Although for the seven billion uninformed ordinary people on the planet, every day spent in the past ten years seems to be the same as yesterday; but for the undercurrents and understanding insiders, all kinds of extraordinary technologies have changed. There are competing forces from all sides, making the situation change rapidly.

"Compared to what you can get after the arrival of the Divine Pillar, this phenomenon is the crisis itself. Shocking tragedies will occur in the places after the arrival, such as large-scale mutations and riots of native flora and fauna, and... Alpha Civilization Although it obtained the living mechanical technology from the divine pillar that made it prosperous for a while, it was precisely because of this that it was targeted by the 'invading species' wandering among the stars."

People affected by the coming of the divine pillar have become the objects of pursuit and enthusiasm; any "item" or "information" excavated from the divine pillar symbolizes power, technology beyond human intelligence, and unparalleled wealth, and...

Symbolizes the future of this world.

At this time, my friend's voice suddenly came from behind, still as relaxed and even out of tune as ever.

"What are you thinking?"

In her eyes, the real symbol of "The Coming of the God Pillar" is not wealth, power, or technology, but the end - an entire civilization destroyed by invading species; the more frequently this phenomenon occurs on the earth, the more It means that the day of destruction is approaching.

In this world, there are many people who can see this, but there are always very few people who can restrain their desires. No matter how others appeal, the thought of most people is probably "I won't care about the flood after I die." ".

On the other hand, if even the Alpha civilization has not been able to successfully continue, what hope can humanity have today?

And, even if invasive species are attracted to the ecology of the earth, considering such a wide range of space, there will still be a long time before they can attack the earth in a large scale. This time may be millions or even tens of millions of years. .

The current "invasive species" attacks on the earth are almost all accidental jumps that rely on gravity wells and are limited to a small area. Therefore, no matter how ferocious and cruel the monsters from the universe are, including the committee, A group of organizations can still solve them by dispatching elite teams, and even have the power to conceal the truth of the world from the public through intelligence control;

As long as the savior is still on this planet and this person is still willing to stand on the side of human civilization, then everything is hopeful.

It was with such complicated emotions that she got along with Qiu Qimeng. But now, at least now——

Yes, in fact, all the above thoughts were the problems that troubled Miying in the past - to be precise, before she saw the power of the "savior"; after witnessing the super-standard power possessed by Qiu Qimeng, they actually troubled her. It becomes another problem.

But at this moment, Mi Ying was very happy that she could be by his side, and all kinds of pessimistic and desperate thoughts were left behind for a while.

She felt a little relieved.

……

Qiu Qimeng stood behind Mi Ying, looking out at Baiyue Town from the hotel window like her.

In the eyes of the mortal body, the town seems to be the same town, quiet and peaceful, the vast sky is empty, and the nearby sea is calm; but if someone wants to step into it, they will soon encounter a downward spiral. unlimited channels;

In the eyes of the "Savior", the problems in Baiyue Town are even more obvious:
It seems to be connected to the depths of the sea, and has turned into a huge and deep whirlpool. Any life form that dares to approach rashly will be involved in it involuntarily.

"Hmm...it's interesting."

But no matter where it is, it really is the bottom of the deep sea, even the abyss of the universe, it cannot block the savior's sight.

Qiu Qimeng's eyes were shining brightly. Through the deep whirlpool, she saw dozens of aircraft floating in the sky.

Miying realized this much later, but based on the information sent from the headquarters, even with the obstruction of the divine pillar force field, she could still roughly guess what happened in Baiyue Town.

"Matlyoshka...actually sent troops to the earth with great fanfare?"

Miying raised her eyebrows.

"It seems that I came here a little late. I only found the 'superior individual', but I didn't have time to get information from it."

The woman's eyes turned to her friend beside her, and she saw the girl with long platinum hair smiling and saying:
"A group of uninvited guests from extraterrestrials dare to make such a noise. They don't take human beings seriously, right?"

"Matlyoshka does have this qualification. They inherited the technology of the Alphas. Many people in the committee envied this, and even sent the king to control their superior individuals, with the purpose of stealing the technology from them again. Come back." "That can only be considered unlucky for them." Qiu Qimeng licked her lips, with a subtle excitement in her tone, "Who made the savior - the guardian of mankind happen to appear here...ah, it's so great Tough luck.”

"Well, that's good. If you go there, things will be resolved soon..."

"Do not."

However, Qiu Qimeng shook her head and refused.

"Since I'm the one who wants to take action, let's just cut off the root cause."

"...?"

Mi Ying didn't realize the meaning of her words for a while. When she realized what the other party wanted to do next, the woman couldn't help but widen her eyes.

"Are you...serious?"

"Of course...ah, no, actually I'm not very serious, but what I said will definitely come true."

Qiu Qimeng shook her finger at her.

"Don't worry, I can handle it."

"I don't doubt that you can win." Miying said, "But the town is being attacked now..."

"Isn't there someone else here?"

other people……

Mi Ying knew she was talking about the young man named Yan Jingxing.

But to this day, she still has doubts about whether the "prototype" can fight against the "savior". Moreover, the young man has just become a wearer and obviously has not had time to tap into the power of his own body.

However, even so, in terms of strength alone, it may not be impossible to fight against Matlyoshka's legion... What Miying is really worried about is that in her opinion, he is still just a child.

Unlike the perverted woman in front of her who had strange thoughts about minors and fought with them, she believed that Yan Jingxing was a young warrior with worthy potential, and she also felt that he was someone who needed to be taken care of.

Experience, intuition, psychology - "warrior instinct" cannot completely make up for the gap. She knows this very well, and she also knows that Qiu Qimeng knows this well.

"I have wanted to discuss this issue with you several times, but you have chosen to avoid it every time. Isn't it really because you find it troublesome? I don't think you are a good choice, but if you insist on educating yourself, , we can also discuss it again..."

From Mi Ying's point of view, the most important thing right now is to have a trustworthy senior guide Yan Jingxing's growth so that he can learn how to use his power as soon as possible.

Children need freedom rather than indulgence. In the absence of correct education, whether they waste their talents or go on extreme deviations, this is not what she wants to see - the significance of "prototype" is too great for her to ignore. Heart.

"I think there is nothing to discuss... By the way, because you are not a warrior, you have never fought with him, and there is no physical collision of spiritual and physical communication, so you don't understand, right?"

Qiu Qimeng grinned even more.

"He and I are the same kind of people, and I can tell it as soon as we meet. So don't worry about his future, he has his own way to go."

Putting aside whether your intuition is reliable or not, just the fact that he is "the same kind of person as you" is very worrying... Mi Ying complained in her heart, feeling that she might not be able to change her mind just by talking.

If you have to try to persuade me again——

"What if?"

she says. She found that her friend valued that boy more than ever before, and his attitude was extremely serious.

And for the woman Qiu Qimeng, the chance of being "serious" is as low as the chance of an asteroid hitting the earth...

"Fate is always unpredictable. What if he really dies before he grows up? Won't you regret today's decision?"

"Oh, what if he died..."

Qiu Qimeng showed an indifferent expression.

"——Well, then I'll die."

She had the same beautiful smile as before, still as relaxed and cheerful, and still as cruel and arrogant as not taking anyone seriously, which made her suddenly realize that the woman in front of her had never changed.

Mi Ying was speechless for a moment.

"Then, I'm leaving."

Qiu Qimeng waved her hand and turned around to leave.

"Wait for me here for a while and I'll be right back."

The savior's steps were brisk, as if she were going out to visit the neighbors, and her destination was——

Alpha Star, light years away.
