Bulwark of Light

2022-09-18

Boundless Dark World.

Shadow class barge.

The Time Flow Speed slowed down, Gu Shen opened his eyes, and once again came to this spiritual space that is highly similar to the “Pure Land”. He stood in the light, and not far away was standing in the dark. that throne.

“The deal is over.”

The Devil seems to be a very ceremony guy.

At least, it obeys some of the illusory’s “rules” more than I thought.

When the deal was concluded, it deliberately said “deal is done” before releasing its spirit strength, and now everything was over, and it dragged its “consciousness” into this space again.

“I know, the power in the ruler is passing quickly, I can feel it.”

Gu Shen shrugged, said without emotion: “To be honest, the transaction is over as soon as it is over. Now, there’s no need for you to deliberately say goodbye to me.”

The expression of the person sitting on the throne was shrouded in darkness.

But it can be seen that it has lost its previous elegance and calmness, and now it is slightly startled.

“When borrowing something, always say ‘thank you’…”

The devil’s voice is complicated.

“So you want to hear me thank you?”

Gu Shen laughed: “But this is a ‘deal’…both sides have paid, and you paid.’ spirit strength ‘, I have also paid, I have lived up to your hope, I came back alive, it should be you who said thank you to me.”

“…”

The devil was completely silent.

It has never seen someone as… cheeky shameless as Gu Shen.

“If there is nothing to do, you can ‘break up’.”

Gu Shen said lightly.

The shadow of the throne was speechless for a while, this guy is cheeky, he is not ashamed, but proud.

In fact.

Gu Shen’s words are not “unsatisfied”.

Dealing with the devil…how could it be so easy?

This deal seems to have nothing to lose.

But it’s not that simple.

The “deal” of power beyond the current is an addictive thing, with the first time, there will be a second time, a third time… the best way to face the devil, It is to ignore it and avoid it, because once there is an intersection, sooner or later something “unknown” will happen.

So—

Gu Shen has nothing to thank for that shadow on the throne.

This deal is all about getting what you want.

He wants to get back to the fortress alive.

And the guy in the ruler is afraid of being abandoned to the 【Old World】.

If you think about it carefully, you will find that the arrangement of “Pluto” twenty years ago is very illogical… He left Wuzhou, but he did not bring this Heaven Defying Level Divine Item with him.

Gu Shen thought long ago that this was an omission, an oversight.

But look at it now…

The coincidences in the world may be doomed!

Perhaps, this ruler has its own thoughts.

Or maybe, Hades had a premonition of his end… Once he died in the [Old World], then this ruler was destined to drift in the torrent of particles outside the fortress for hundreds of years. No one cares for thousands of years.

“wait a minute”

The shadow on the throne spoke again, and he spoke out to keep Gu Shen.

“Have you figured out what to do with ‘those troubles’ after you go out?”

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

Those troubles… are you referring to erasing the traces of Ruler of Truth? After this exodus is complete, the entire squad will be questioned to investigate Legion’s discipline, and will surely find out how the team got back to Kubo within the time limit.

And all spearheads will be directed at themselves.

Hiding power is a real hassle.

“Don’t worry about it.”

In this space, there seems to be some kind of law that allows souls to meet honestly. Both Gu Shen and Sombra’s Spiritual Fluctuation It is very clear, which means that once the two sides have cross-examined and answered, there will be no more secrets.

Gu Shen looked at the throne calmly, trying to keep his mind from thinking, indifferently said: “Anyway, you don’t care about the owner of the ‘ruler’… don’t you?”

Face this rhetorical question.

The devil is silent again.

The mental space slowly changed, Time Flow Speed returned to normal, and it voluntarily ended the meeting.

It seems that I was asked by my own question to my heart.

Gu Shen looked blankly at the silver-white ruler in his hand.

As for the real purpose of the “Devil”‘s previous transaction, it is not difficult to guess. What it wants is that Gu Shen bring a ruler and return to the fortress safely. As long as this task is completed, even if the ruler is lost later , and sooner or later will find the next owner and open the next transaction.

Gu Shen gained a lot of information from this transaction.

The Ruler of Truth is indeed an “Evil Artifact”.

Every time you use it, there are side effects.

And every time you are fully immersed in it, the dark voice that always sounds in your heart should be from the throne in the shadow… If the user is completely immersed in the power of “Ruler of Truth” , the devil will master the body.

Gu Shen doesn’t know how much authority this devil has in the ruler space.

What made him horrified was that during the “trading” period, Ruler of Truth could build a spiritual link with the [Deep Sea] in the [Old World], which was simply beyond the iron law of cognition. ability.

The second thing to pay attention to is that the devil…has mastered the message of himself and Chu Ling.

For so long.

The Ruler of Truth has always been Gu Shen’s trump card…it’s carried around everywhere.

For this reason, did the devil spy on his true spirit?

Thinking about it.

Gu Shen felt a strong sense of discomfort.

“Maybe…you should find something made of special material and seal this ruler.”

He immediately thought of [Black Silver]!

That is currently recognized as the highest quality strong logic material in the five continents. Mr. Shan specially sent it to him from the palace of Hades, and now it can be used!

…

…

came back to his senses.

Gu Shen saw the situation clearly.

The squad has successfully entered the defense line at this moment, the passageway is closed, but the rumbling sound of the storm still exists.

The tornado in the distant sky is approaching, and the sound of sweeping the sky is blocked by the “big umbrella” composed of hundreds of millions of floating boards… At this moment, there are many “backers” in the defense line. Come to see the sudden change in the defense line, and after a while, exciting news spread throughout the fortress.

Investigate Legion’s second team and return home!

It’s almost a “Divine Vestige” thing!

The emergency rescue team arrived, Gu Shen’s entire group was carried on a stretcher, everyone’s expressions were confused, Gu Shen showed the same reaction as them, his acting was good, he was carried When he got into the car, the medical staff was still nervously asking him if he felt any pain…

Due to the “super-high speed” advancement, the source armor was all broken.

After landing, the skeletons attached to each of the squad members were cracked to pieces.

The strange thing is that this kind of terrifying internal propulsion did not drain the energy, nor did it cause damage to the body of the team members. The rescue team could not explain such a thing. It won’t be long before the Beizhou military The research experts will get involved and understand the details, but unfortunately they are not destined to give answers.

Because the answer is too ridiculous.

The rescue team checks the physical condition of the squad members.

While asking for details of the outbound mission.

This is a very important thing…because there are so many missions out of the fort every year, after the completion of the mission, before the information can be passed on, the returnee encounters an accident.

The level of this maze mission is very high.

It is a pity that these returnees who created “Divine Vestige” have no idea about the final race against the storm.

Their presentation is transient amnesia.

This is a normal response to “hypnosis”.

After all, the hypnosis at this time is relatively strong…

After gaining the power of the devil, Gu Shen used the realm of truth to wash everyone’s heart once, not In order to do something bad, just make sure that the trouble after the “escape” can be smaller, smaller.

There are many unsolvable mysteries in this world.

He hopes that this storm escape can also become a mystery with no clues.

This way of coping is simple, rude, and powerful.

The rescue team asked again and found nothing to be gained, so they said nothing more.

……

……

“You guys, this is…”

Yuan Yuan woke up from his deep sleep , He found that the source armor on his body had been completely shattered. At this moment, his whole body was exhausted, and he didn’t even have the strength to lift a finger.

A group of medical staff in heavy protective suits are surrounding themselves. In addition to wearing a full set of zero-dust isolation devices, they also wear goggles that are only used by the pilots of the energy boat when they land.

What the hell is this?

It was too late to ponder, next moment, Yuan Yuan’s consciousness suddenly sobered up.

Because he saw a familiar face-

“Captain!”

The blond man sitting across from him, gently un’ed, motioned Yuan Yuan needn’t be excited.

With this roar, all the members of the wide carriage were suddenly refreshed.

Several big men with back of a tiger and waist of a bear saw Zhongyuan, and their first reaction was to scream in excitement.

So excited, not only because they themselves escaped the hardships of nine deaths and still alive…but also because the last time they met Captain was before the mission of the Doru River disaster.

That was an extremely dangerous joint operation that was said to kill a lot of people!

Before leaving the castle, they were worried about Captain’s safety.

The second team has a sturdy record among the many squads in Legion. In addition, the survival rate is among the best. The reason is that they not only have strong strength, but also have reliable comrades worthy of absolute delivery… …

The independence oath of the second team is “to come back alive with comrades”, which is not a simple slogan that can be said casually.

This can be seen from Nakahara’s decision just now.

How many squid Captains would leave the giant wall alone, risk their own lives, and try to rescue their teammates in the storm?

He is using his life to defend the precious spirit engraved in the soul of this team.

“Captain ……wū wū wū  …”

The nearest Li Chen pounced on the stretcher and hugged the blond man’s waist.

Next was Mo Hongyi, this guy barked and moved over like a big dog, but unfortunately the distance was a bit short, and after sliding down, he could only hug Captain’s thigh.

There was a lot of noise in the car at the moment.

There is nothing in this world that is more exciting than a meeting after a life-and-death crisis.

Zhongyuan sighed helplessly, but a warm smile appeared in his eyes.

He knew…these guys had a lot to say to himself.

There is also a lot of useful information about the maze quest.

But, now is not the time to reminisce.

……

……

“bang! !!”

A violent explosion sounded above everyone’s heads, Pulling the thoughts of all the investigation team members back to reality, the voice was as dull as thunder, but it was very thick. It penetrated the alloy iron plate of the carriage and oscillated within the enclosed space.

Su He opened the curtain silently.

The transparent thickened glass is splendid at the moment…something exploded from the sky, and the rays of light of silver white shot down the earth.

That was the sound of the Origin Cannon.

And, more than once.

It was only at this moment that the team members realized that their current position could not be regarded as being inside the fortress. Vehicles were galloping on the barren soil. It is the most magnificent battlefield in Kubao for 20 years.

Sky clouds are blown away by jets.

One hundred and forty-nine energy boats docked in the northern part of the Kubao fortress were dispatched. These huge shadows were like giant whales, roaming the sky, and the thirty giant boats in the head were the first to fire. , they have reached the edge of the defense line, and have obtained the permission link of the local area network. The [Umbrella Defense Line] opened a part of the scales, opening a special exit channel for them.

The artillery fire in this brief moment illuminated the entire darkness of the [Umbrella Defense Line]. These terrifying strengths of Chaos brought the ultimate light to the world. The energy boats cast them like giant whales. The shadows like this were all torn apart… It was as if a Spiritual God stretched out his palm and ripped apart the darkness of the world.

Looking at everyone outside the car, their faces are covered in silver.

The earth trembled.

In the sound of gunfire.

Nakahara switched on the video of “The Giant Wall”.

At this moment, the entire deployment of the fortress can be clearly seen in this image.

The energy boat has been dispatched.

Before the final Elementium Shock comes, humans take the lead in attacking, trying to shred the storm with heavy firepower!

“Boom long long long…”

Gu Shen’s eyesight was not obscured by the cannon fire.

He stared straight at the blazing light… Unlike others, he could see the clear trajectory of each cannonball. .

The successful escape into the defense line is not over.

In other words, this is just the beginning.

Gu Shen knew that the real war had begun in this brief moment.

The vehicle speeding in the buffer zone of the Umbrella Defense Line is extremely fast at this moment… It’s just that the direction of this vehicle’s travel is completely opposite to that of the Origin Energy Boat.

In the hustle and bustle of the roaring world of artillery fire, Gu Shen’s long-awaited, elegant and quiet slender voice sounded.

“Congratulations, you came back alive.”

[Deep Sea] has prepared similar words of celebration for every returnee.

But only Gu Shen’s voice was trembling.
