Chapter 478 Teacher’s Message

Eastern Continent, Metropolitan Area.

The night of the river beach is as quiet as ever.

Women in red and white sacrificial clothes hold sweet potatoes and eat them in small bites.

This is the best food she has ever eaten.

Perhaps because of the “dissipation”, the last meal is often the best… Chu Ling said silently in his heart.

So, eat slower, slower.

The two walked along the riverbank, walking slowly and quietly along the riverbank like this, and finally Chu Ling found an old but clean wooden bench, sat down, People snuggled up and watched the lights in the river world, one by one they went out one by one.

A thousand words are silent.

Gu Shen felt the slight tremor of the woman in his arms.

Like a cat shaking its fur.

That is actually the flow and overflow of the source quality…

The “Wish Technique” of the Shrine Mountain has reached its limit.

Chu Ling’s fleshy body, lifespan is about to burn out.

Someone lit fireworks in Yinghai District at night, and the sky in the distance burst into flames.

Chu Ling looked at the fireworks in front of her.

She seemed to understand something, laughed softly, muttered: “So ‘death’ feels like this…”

Chu Ling raised her palm.

The gold thread wrapped around the fingertips spilled out uncontrollably.

From this moment, Chu Ling can no longer use the Divination Technique, because she is losing the fleshy body, and losing the fleshy body means that she can no longer pay the price of watching her fate.

Chu Ling was a little emotional.

As for the feeling of “Death”, Tiewu is quite vivid, but he seems to be only half right.

Chu Ling silently stretched out that palm like a camera, trying to frame the night sky with fireworks in the distance. This is the last picture she left to herself before “death”… It turns out that death really is. things like fireworks.

It’s just that her death is more like a scene where the word fireworks is separated.

Diffuse like smoke.

Wither like a flower.

It was a slow process…the fireworks went off and so did she.

The two people snuggling on the bench became one person.

Gu Shen looked at the red and white sacrificial clothes scattered on the bench, the faint fragrance still lingering in front of his nose, and the girl who went south with him had disappeared into the long night.

His expression was a little complicated.

Gu Shen stretched out his hands to pick up the scattered sacrificial clothes, and then a small orange cat head emerged from the robe.

“Meow.”

The orange cat’s eyes were full of confusion.

It doesn’t understand, why did the good-smelling girl who just hugged him disappear all of a sudden?

……

……

“Gu Shen!”

The night on the river beach did not last long.

A familiar voice sounded from behind, Gu Shen hugged the orange cat and looked back.

old acquaintance.

“Da Nian?”

He couldn’t help laughing when he looked at the man wearing a motorcycle helmet, who was a little unbalanced when walking because of his top-heavy feet.

After a long absence, Hu Danian is still the same as before.

It was only when he pulled his helmet hard that Gu Shen knew he was wrong.

Hu Danian has long flowing hair, but with a tight brown motorcycle suit, it looks like…

Gu Shen is thinking about adjectives.

Hu Danian high-spirited and vigorously said with a smile, “Tell me loudly, do I look like a majestic lion now!”

“No, more Like a bear in heat.”

Gu Shen sighed.

He stood up and gave Hu Danian a symbolic hug.

Long time no reunion.

The big year is still the big year.

“Headquarters said they are looking for you…but your ‘spiritual link’ is closed to the outside world.”

Hu Danian scratched his head and said, “Madam and Xiao Cui Mr. provided your position, I thought it would not be difficult to find you, so I set off… No, in this big night, why do you leave this person to watch the moon?”

Gu Shen bitterly laughed.

Obviously, Mrs. and Mr. Cui knew that they and Chu Ling were traveling south.

So they didn’t bother themselves.

It’s just… Hu Danian, this idiot, doesn’t know the news.

“Hey wait, it’s weird.”

Hu Danian glanced at the bench, saw a woman’s dress, and then looked at Gu Shen with a weird expression, “You No…”

“Alas…”

Gu Shen sighed.

What a headache.

This dress is troublesome to explain…

He stretched out his hand, motioning for Hu Danian to get closer, then snapped a ray of fire, hitting Hu Danian’s body. between the eyebrows.

Than explain.

Gu Shen chose to use blazing fire to erase this “bad” memory in Hu Danian’s mind.

It’s crisp and efficient.

I just met, and before I had time to say hello, I threw the person down, and Gu Shen felt a little apology in his heart.

But…not deep.

After all, this is not the first time for Hu Danian.

“Brother Da Nian, you’d better have a good night’s sleep.”

……

……

Huazhi Building.

Gu Shen pushed open the door of the Conference Hall on the top floor. As he expected, there was a small emergency meeting going on here. Several of his acquaintances were all present, including Lu Nanzhi, Cui Zhongcheng, and Nan. Chan San, MP for Bay.

“Just you?”

Lu Nanzhi looked at the unexpected guest, took a sip of coffee with a smile, and asked, “That girl Chu didn’t come with me. ?”

Of course she’s here…and looking at you.

Gu Shen laughed, resisting the urge to say the previous sentence, and said softly: “She went back first.”

“Actually, the headquarters doesn’t want to disturb your vacation.”

Senator Chen looked sincere, looked at the watch, and said slowly: “It stands to reason… you should be on a sweet vacation on the river beach?”

“If no one has the coordinates If you send it out, it’s really sweet now.”

Gu Shen pulled up a chair and sat down, turned slowly, and said with a smile, “Mr. Cui, don’t say that you accidentally let Hu Danian Seeing the coordinates…the character of that fool, I am afraid that only you here know.”

Miss Chen understood why Gu Shen came to this building at this moment.

This is the result of Cui Zhongcheng sending someone to “please”.

“Although the two members said they don’t want to disturb you, I personally feel that it is necessary to disturb you. It is more appropriate for me to do this kind of thing.”

Cui Zhongcheng with both hands Fingers crossed, he did not deny his actions, but looked at the big screen, calmly said: “After all, the news from Beizhou this time is probably related to your teacher…”

Gu Shen’s expression became solemn.

Eastern Continent has now entered a short period of stability and stability. The two major districts of Nagano Dato have very suitable “controllers”. Under this situation, the headquarters should notify them of two things. .

Either there is a problem with Qingzhong Cemetery.

Or, the teacher involved in Beizhou.

The super-large disaster area in the Piyue City Fortress has been expanding for a whole year. In the past year, the Queen of Beizhou chose to tolerate the expansion of the disaster area with great courage.

But unfortunately…there is no news of the teacher in the disaster situation of Piyue City.

“Fifteen days ago, there was a squid investigating Legion and set off from Kubao Fortress.”

Cui Zhongcheng slowly said: “This squid belongs to the White Lizard General. Every member of the team is an elite investigator of the Legion, and this time the mission is named ‘Maze 38’ in the Deep Sea Database.”

on the screen.

A region is enlarged.

That is the map after the fortress of Kubao went north. From the area outside the giant wall, it was almost a huge fog. It was a “disorderly place” that was engulfed by extraordinary source substances and covered by black holes.

Even the [Deep Sea] cannot extend beyond the giant wall.

For so many years, human beings can only little by little perfect the map outside the giant wall through their own exploration… In this fog, there is a narrow curve meandering.

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes and stared at the map, jotting it down in his mind.

He noticed that the end of the map seemed to be a Snow Mountain canyon.

“The mission of this elite team is to find the right way out of this canyon…” Cui Zhongcheng said calmly: “It’s just that the Beizhou military has determined that this mission has failed.”

“Mission failed?”

Gu Shen frowned.

“After leaving the giant wall, [Deep Sea] could not provide assistance, but the Beizhou military’s investigation Legion has a sealed item that can sense the ‘Life and Death Contract state’… As originally planned On the date of the return trip, the life status of the transcender of this squid will all be changed to death.”

Gu Shen understood what Cui Zhongcheng meant.

【Deep Sea】can’t help, the information outside the giant wall needs to be brought back by the transcender squad.

And every time you explore, you may face the situation of “no return”.

Once the whole army is wiped out.

Then the investigation Legion inside the giant wall needs to be adjusted.

“The sealed item is called ‘Life and Death Book’.”

At this moment, the gray-shirted old man Gu Zhi, who had been waiting beside Senator Chen, suddenly He said, “Every transcender who leaves the giant wall must register on the ‘Life and Death Book’. The so-called registration is to leave his own blood. The spiritual imprint of each transcender is unique and unmatched. The ‘Life and Death Book’ can form a connection with it… Theoretically, the spiritual imprint is not erased, and the transcender is still alive.”

He had participated in the mission of investigating Legion’s giant wall in North Continent.

And the injuries on the body were also taken at that time.

“So…the spiritual imprints of these people have been erased, which is enough to prove that they are dead.”

Cui Zhongcheng continued: “After the Life and Death Book confirmed the death news, [Deep Sea] decided that the mission of ‘Maze 38’ was a complete failure, and when the investigation Legion was about to dispatch the next team to carry out the mission of ‘Maze 39’… an accident happened.”

A picture appeared on the screen.

It was a blurry picture from the Beizhou military.

A man covered in blood, lying on a stretcher… Gu Shen remembers the man’s face, this is the Captain in the six-person squid.

“Hong Zhong, spiritual transcender, ability [red dice], Ninth Layer strength in deep water, as the seventh elite squad Captain of Legion.”

Lu Nanzhi looked at the screen The man above said calmly, “He came back alive.”

This was an accident.

Gu Shen fell silent.

Chu Ling, who returned to the spiritual space of Zero Zero Unity, also fell into silence.

“This…impossible.”

Chu Ling thought for a long time and gave his answer: “Abandon all the unreasonable points, just return from the mission target point Beizhou, fifteen days is simply not enough.”

Not to mention, this is a team that has encountered an unexpected situation.

“Don’t be in a hurry to be surprised, because there is something even more incredible…”

Lu Nanzhi said: “He insisted that he saw the ‘oasis’, and in the ‘oasis’ ‘ and saw other survivors. As evidence, Hong Zhong handed in an item to the Beizhou military.”

“It was a broken piece of wood…”

On the screen, a piece of purple sawdust is continuously enlarged and enlarged.

“Through trace analysis and breath detection… The result of the preliminary calculation of [Deep Sea] is that there is a 67% chance that this piece of wood chips came from Zhou Jiren’s walking stick.”
