Bulwark of Light

“Immersed in ‘black silver’, it shouldn’t be able to stare at the real world anymore, right?”

Gu Shen looked at the ruler, which was dyed pitch black from silver and white.

He didn’t know what was inside the ruler, but after Black Silver wrapped the Ruler of Truth, he felt relieved from the bottom of his heart.

The deal with the devil is destined to be a long game.

Until he finds out the truth of Pluto’s fall, he still minimizes the conversation with the devil, the guy who lives in the darkness, exuding a gloomy aura all over his body.

It looks like he has the upper hand right now.

From the moment you enter the ruler, the scale of victory is already tilted to the other side.

The conversation just now was quite rewarding.

At least one thing Gu Shen is sure of.

That is Ruler of Truth can’t refuse his spiritual link…

As long as “Black Silver” can block the perception of the ruler, then in the next game, he can firmly gain the upper hand !

During this time, he did not intend to use the ruler.

After doing this, Gu Shen left the room.

He went to the cemetery alone.

……

……

After finishing the [Maze Quest], Gu Shen has always had a doubt in his heart.

With the strength of golden ear flower.

Those explorers who arrived in the labyrinth did not have the strength of the Peak fourth rank transcender, so they could hardly leave alive… But Hong Zhong escaped back. According to the records, this guy’s Transcendent Realm world is probably Deep Sea Eighth Layer.

How did he do it?

Lin Lin, Zhong Yuan, and the members of the squad who were on the mission to get out this time… all didn’t know the existence of “Golden Spike Flower”, so they thought that Hong Zhong’s survival was just a fluke!

But Gu Shen knew that it was a fluke!

This guy… either has a hidden secret or a special sealed item!

The bright moon is in the sky.

The Ku fort, which had just ended a storm and catastrophe, was extraordinarily bright and bright under the silvery-white moonlight.

When the guards on patrol saw Gu Shen, they did not stop him, but saluted respectfully.

Gu Shen entered the cemetery unimpeded.

He came to Hong Zhong’s tombstone.

Perhaps because of the heavy rain just now, some weeds grew around this tombstone…Before the “psychotoxin” broke out, this place was also used as a mourning place for “heroes” , Investigating Legion’s second team sent people to talk more than once, trying to transport the corpse of the returnee Hong Zhong from the fortress back to the inland of Beizhou.

Now that I think about it, it makes me feel scared.

If this “psychotoxin” breaks out inland…and spreads completely, then the situation is serious.

By then, it’s not a problem that Gu Shen can solve.

Beijing may have to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to solve this “disaster”.

As for Gu Shen, he will be forced to bear the fate of the “Golden Spike Flower” massacre, in other words… He may bear a lot of ominousness because of this man-made disaster.

Fortunately, Lin Lin stopped all this!

Even Gu Shen secretly admires this, knowing that this guy doesn’t have a “ghost fire”.

As the fortress keeper, making such a decision required to withstand enormous pressure from the outside world.

I have to admit that Lin Lin is unusually sharp. He has the same sense of smell as a hound and can smell the crisis in “Hong Zhong” clearly.

This is a natural talent with a big heart.

“The smell in this tomb is a bit strange.”

Gu Shen resisted the golden hoop, and with difficulty opened a ray of “fiery fire”, his pupils burned into a faint light. golden.

Under the gaze, the weeds on the tombstone and the words carved on the stone vanished.

His gaze pierced the ground, pointing directly at the coffin under the dust.

The spirit strength of “Blazing Fire” directly touched the corpse of “Hong Zhong”. It stands to reason that this is the mother body that nurtured the “Poison of Golden Spike Flower”. , should immediately stir out the remnants of the soul.

However, this phenomenon did not occur.

The man in the coffin couldn’t die any longer… Even the last Remnant Soul dissipated.

As for the Extraordinary Essence that should have remained in the coffin, not even the dregs were left.

“What power, disintegrated his soul?”

Gu Shen crouched down.

He extended the hand and shook it gently.

The dust of the cemetery was continuously wiped away from both sides by the spirit strength, and after a few seconds, the surface of the brand new coffin was revealed.

Gu Shen decided to open the coffin directly.

The coffin was opened…

A rotten corpse came into view. Hong Zhong’s body had been burned, and now only the bones were left in the burning ground…but there were no signs of burning. , his body seems to be gnawed by some force, Gu Shen is frowned, in Hong Zhong’s skeleton, there is an old and worn pendant, not decayed, tied in front of the neck, now sinking into the sternum.

Sealed Artifacts!

Gu Shen did not reach out to touch, nor did he take the subject with spirit strength.

He put on black and silver gloves, and cautiously took out the pendant… It doesn’t look like a lethal sealed item. This pendant should be a very old object with a delicate texture. , the main body is a broken cross, which seems to be smashed diagonally. As for the pendant’s chain part, it is likely that Hong Zhong himself matched it, because under the black and silver package, Gu Shen just rubbed it lightly. After a few clicks, the slender pendant slowly weathered and disappeared, leaving only the main body of the cross pendant.

After scrutinizing and confirming that there is no danger, Gu Shen tentatively sent a small wisp of blazing fire into it.

Maybe this is a Spiritual Sealed Artifact.

Hong Zhong’s soul has been devoured cleanly, and the skeleton is so thoroughly corrupted…

It is very likely that this Sealed Artifact is used.

At the time of testing with spirit strength, Gu Shen had already prepared the worst plan to send “Blazing Fire” Went but never returned.

However, the results were unexpected.

The process of “Blazing Fire” dipping into the cross pendant went extremely smoothly.

And Gu Shen also felt a familiar strand of Soul Aura… This cross pendant is indeed a spiritual seal, with a curled up weak Soul Spirit floating in it.

Hong Zhong’s soul was not devoured by the Sealed Artifact, but got [asylum] and hid here!

Gu Shen pupil shrink.

Absolutely didn’t expect, this time, when I entered the mausoleum to open the coffin, I could find this thing.

When the fleshy body is broken, the soul will also be destroyed… The only exception so far is the “Pure Land” of Hades, the legendary god who can control the Life and Death Rule, and even Hades survives The soul of the dead also has to pay a huge price.

Too late to think about it.

A deep voice came from behind.

“Hello…”

Gu Shen’s mental immersion ended instantly, he put away the pendant with his backhand, and looked back calmly.

A not tall blond young man walked over slowly with his hands in his pockets.

Zhong Yuan went to Hong Zhong’s cemetery.

The Captain of the second team looked a little tired. After fighting the storm, he had not had time to rest. At this moment, he looked at the dusty grave and the coffin that was opened outward, and said in a hoarse voice: ” There should also be a saying in the Eastern Continent that ‘the dead are the greater’… you just opened his coffin, isn’t it good?”

“This is the original source of the ‘psychotoxin’ outbreak, I’m checking for psychotoxin residues.”

Gu Shen’s answer is impeccable: “If psychotoxins are not cleaned up, then the second outbreak will be more harmful than the first… This is the case Now, there is no saying ‘the dead are the greater’.”

Zhongyuan was silent for a while.

A moment later, he nodded, expressing his approval of Gu Shen’s behavior.

It’s just… what’s buried here is, after all, a comrade-in-arms who has fought with him for many years, and a comrade who has entrusted his back several times.

Until now, he couldn’t believe the report given by Yuan Yuansuhe… In his memory, Hong Zhong was not a selfish person who would kill his teammates.

But the reality is cruel——

The hero of the homecoming who found the oasis is the biggest fake news in Beizhou this year.

Hong Zhong killed his teammates and returned with a violent mental toxin, concealing the truth of the [Maze Quest], almost causing the entire Kubao fortress to fall under the storm.

“Is there anything strange?” Zhong Yuan laughed softly, “I want to take this guy away when I leave the fortress.”

“I haven’t found anything unusual for the time being.” Gu Shen said calmly: “This body has been burned before, but it is not thorough enough. I suggest burning it completely. Trouble will completely vanish. If it’s just for commemoration, you can take the ashes…”

He just took Hong Zhong’s pendant.

Judging from the power contained in the sealed artifact, Hong Zhong has a high probability of keeping everyone secret, but if the corpse is transported back inland, the Beizhou military will conduct another round of testing… …maybe there will be a twist.

Direct cremation on the grounds of solving “psychotoxin”. For Gu Bao and Gu Shen, they are trouble will completely vanish.

Lin Lin impossible rejects his proposal.

Nakahara looked a little struggling.

“I burned it once before and left a complete corpse,” he sighed and muttered, “I can take the ashes away… Before I come, I promise Lao Hong bring him back to his hometown.”

Zhong Yuan squatted down and asked suddenly, “Brother Gu, do you think this corpse is abnormal?”

“… …”

Gu Shen braked quietly and threw the question back: “What do you think is not normal?”

“It’s been burned once, but you can’t see it and it’s normal. , he was drying up too fast, fleshy body and spirit seemed to be swallowed by something.” Zhongyuan said slowly: “Before the burning, Lin Lin opened the coffin once, but in just a few days, Hong Zhong was only rotten. There’s a dry skeleton left.”

This really doesn’t make sense.

It’s just…Gu Shen found the cross pendant on Hong Zhong, he knew that this guy’s soul was not swallowed up by anything, but inhabited by the pendant.

He continued to remain silent, awaiting follow-up.

Zhongyuan said meaningfully: “In the Dolu River disaster, people infected by [river poison] are like this…”

Investigate the absolute main force of Legion’s second team, follow Zhongyuan, just participated in the crusade mission of the Dolu River disaster!

This crusade against the super-large disaster situation is a major operation carefully planned by the Beizhou military!

General-level characters, dispatched more than one!

And the information about the “Dolu River” has been blocked by the Beizhou military so far, and the outer continents do not know the specific situation, only that this major battle has been won.

The blond man stood up and said softly, “The ‘toxin’ on this guy is from the same source as the ‘toxin’ in the Dolu River disaster.”
