The private plane landed in the afternoon. Ye Yuansong and the others had already tidied their clothes. After getting off the plane, Ye Yuansong planned to take Shi Yin to the hotel that had been arranged in advance.

"No need, I will act alone." Shi Yin waved her hand: "My presence now will make some people wary."

"But if you want to persuade those people, you'd better show your face first and become familiar with them?" Ye Yuansong hesitated. "Tomorrow is the highest meeting. Even if they see a stranger, they won't act rashly. You don't need to worry."

"It's nothing." Shi Yin shook her head again: "I just need to gain that person's trust."

"I have things to do tonight."

Ye Yuansong and Ye Shaoheng exchanged a glance. Helpless, they could only let Shi Yin disappear into the night.

"Grandpa, you've changed. You used to trust people so easily." Ye Shaoheng scratched his head. "Aren't you afraid that Shi Yin is just using you to cause trouble?"

"...With the abilities she's shown, does she even need to use me?" Ye Yuansong raised his cane and tapped Ye Shaoheng's leg: "Don't just grow taller every day, grow your brain too."

"Ouch! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts..."

Ye Shaoheng clutched his leg, looking dejected.

City A is brightly lit at night, with colorful neon lights illuminating the city as if it were daytime. Even at night, the streets are still bustling with traffic.

Here, evil is rarely seen. Even the most arrogant darkness knows not to start a disturbance right under the nose of the imperial city.

Inconspicuous bricks and tiles are priceless in the capital, but worthless outside the capital. Even the masterminds behind the scenes know not to do something so costly and destined to lose money right away.

Amidst towering buildings, through a huge floor-to-ceiling window, a blonde woman with long, wavy hair holds a glass of red wine, a smile playing on her lips.

Beside her, a man was tightly bound, his eyes fixed on the curvaceous woman in her dress, but he could only wriggle and twist like a caterpillar, managing to move forward only a few centimeters after a long time.

Suddenly, a shadow appeared outside the French windows. It had black hair and was dressed in black, floating in the night sky. It looked like a ghost. If an ordinary person saw it, they would be so frightened that they would collapse to the ground and rush out the door.

The next moment, accompanied by a cool breeze, a dark figure appeared indoors.

"You've worked hard, Ishtar." Stepping onto the soft carpet, Shi Yin approached the man who was tied up like a dumpling: "When are you going back to the country?"

“Tomorrow.” The woman, known as Ishtar, sat gracefully on the sofa, picked up her glass of red wine, and took a sip. “I’m not like you. Our national circumstances are different. I can’t do that much.”

"Within six months, Lulan Kingdom must be integrated into a single force, or I will abandon you." Shi Yin sat down on another single sofa: "Those who should be abandoned should be abandoned; I shouldn't need to remind you."

"Yes, yes~ You really don't understand romance at all, my little voice." Ishtar chuckled helplessly: "Whether it's my Sanctuary Project, the Cobra Project, or the War Project and the Exploration Project, the Fire Seed Project must come first."

Shi Yin: "..."

“No, these methods have already been merged, it’s just that each country has a different focus,” Shi Yin said. “People in your country yearn for freedom too much. Sometimes when faced with a crisis, it’s better not to be so free.”

"Wait, the merger plan has already started?" Ishtar was taken aback. "When did this happen?"

“More than a hundred years ago,” Shi Yin replied. “I only kept more than two hundred rebirths for you. You can’t handle any more. After that, I will ask you to select some key segments to see how well you can handle them.”

"Oh, so much time has passed since I requested the memory erasure." Ishtar rested her chin on her hand thoughtfully. "Failed again?"

Ishtar quickly accepted the fact that he did not have all the memories of his rebirth.

In fact, apart from Tokine, theoretically everyone is being reborn for the first time.

Many reborn individuals are given the opportunity to be reborn through the opportunities available on Earth, but such opportunities are only available once.

As for why some people have so many memories of being reborn, it's because Tokine shared her memories of time travel with some key figures. Therefore, people like Ishtar have many more memories than normal people.

Therefore, while it is true that Tokine was reborn, it is not entirely accurate. After all, the word "rebirth" sounds somewhat passive, and Tokine is more like a Möbius strip.

However, a person's capacity to endure is limited. Ishtar has currently endured 262 rebirth memories, which is exactly her limit.

262 is an effective number to remember.

Although Toki has gone through thousands of cycles in total, in reality, after deducting a series of invalid cycles such as trial and error, pitfalls, exploration, and probing, the effective cycles are only about three or four hundred.

The idea of ​​cooperating with the country, how to quickly gain trust, and how to time things perfectly were repeated dozens of times.

Of the more than 300 effective respawns, one-third of the time, Shi Yin was a zombie and held considerable prestige among the zombie horde.

Shi Yin also tried the method of "making some wounds on herself, smearing some zombie blood, and turning into a zombie painlessly".

Ishtar, one of the Five Knights, advocates the Sanctuary Plan, which aims to build a sufficiently powerful sanctuary, integrate resources, and work together to support each other until a turning point emerges to survive the apocalypse.

"It can't be considered a failure. Theoretically speaking, the last plan was quite successful."

Shi Yin calmly said, "Human shelters are very well hidden, and those who remain are all mentally strong, capable, and of high quality, capable of taking on great responsibilities. There should be tens of thousands of them in total."

"Zombies need to eat flesh and blood to maintain their vitality. Humans' prolonged rest and avoidance will gradually put them at a disadvantage," Shi Yin said.

In the end, she died, while the others should still be able to survive. Tokine felt that this was an unnecessary part to mention.

She wouldn't be reborn immediately after she died. After her consciousness fell into nothingness, she could still sense the situation in this world. After a long time, the world fell silent. Theoretically speaking, this should be considered the final stage.

Although humanity paid a heavy price, at least the seeds were preserved.

And the voice I heard before I died...

Shi Yin could only tell that the voice was friendly, not hostile. It was that voice that helped her not only regain her original abilities in each rebirth, but also make her stronger each time.

The forces combine.

"Is it considered a success?" Ishtar was somewhat surprised to find himself in another blind spot.

"Then why start over?" Ishtar raised an eyebrow. "Isn't this fine?"

Shi Yin didn't say anything, but picked up the red wine next to her and poured herself a glass.

Ishtar immediately understood and couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

"Being too greedy isn't a good thing. Setting your expectations too high... don't end up breaking down first, my little darling." Ishtar stretched: "Wanting too much, beyond your capabilities, is just a waste of time."

Shi Yin stopped speaking. She closed her eyes, seemingly lost in thought, or perhaps resting.

“Alright, alright, you have your own pace.” Ishtar shook her head and blew Shi Yin a kiss: “Do you want me to help you tomorrow? Darling, with my connections, I should be able to get you a private meeting with your leader.”

"No need. It's enough that you've resolved the poisoning incident in this building." Shi Yin picked up her glass and drank it all in one gulp. "If we go back any later, the margin for error will be too low, and your capital will fall."

“That’s true.” Ishtar smiled. “Have all five of us knights been reborn? I’ll contact them as soon as possible.”

“There’s a specific order, with each person about a day apart. I can’t get all five of them to be at the same time. Could you help me make some contact?” Shi Yin put down her wine glass and stood up. “I’m leaving.”

As he spoke, he approached the person who was trapped like a dumpling and was already in a half-zombie state, roughly picked him up, and in a flash, passed through the French windows and disappeared outside.
