Chapter 46: Battle of Zhuolu (Comic content)
The two days of leisure time passed in a flash.
In the comics, the three of them visited Ye Yunhe on the sickbed; discussed the other teams on the table; played online games in Qi Heng's dormitory at night; complained about why they always had different kinds of buns for breakfast...
The four people become more familiar with each other and get along particularly well with each other in their daily interactions, as if several different puzzle pieces have finally come together at this moment. The protagonist group has always been a team of four and has never changed.
The comments were so adorable that their hearts softened and their voices became more tense. They strongly recommend that cartoonists specialize in drawing an ordinary daily life. After all, simple daily life is the most precious thing in boys' comics.
Suddenly, the warm scene changes and the picture turns to a serious employee's face.
He was carefully looking at the surveillance screens neatly arranged in front of him, constantly adjusting his viewing angle, and did not move away even though his eyes were sore. All kinds of streets and alleys are included.
In addition to him, there were several other employees nearby who were also staring at the screen, which showed various scenes inside and outside the government.
The readers were stunned; they didn't expect the turn to be so quick. But they were soon infected by the employees' serious attitude and became nervous about what would happen next.
Since the last time he led his army here, how will the day appear next?
The God's perspective that belongs exclusively to the readers brings the answer.
In a small and remote corner, the invisible air seemed to vibrate and create a long crack out of nowhere, hanging abruptly in the air. The interior seemed to be flowing pure black, with countless colors mixed in it, changing and agitating.
Suddenly, a hand came out from it, and the slender knuckles grasped the edge of the crack and gently pulled it open. The wound swelled like water waves, and became large enough for one person to enter and exit.
In the picture, the person swallowed by the black hole stepped out with one foot, and his black short boots stepped firmly on the ground. Looking up, I saw the man with his head slightly lowered and eyes lightly closed, looking nonchalantly in the direction he came from.
The crack behind him stuck together after he left, and quickly closed, returning to its original appearance, leaving only a handsome young man standing there.
Looking down from above, he was surrounded by a network of alleys. The day raises its eyelashes and looks up at the blue sky above, where birds spread their wings and soar, singing for freedom.
"? It's nice, but the composition looks weird (touching chin.jpg)"
"Because this angle really looks like a cage: (If Bai Zhou is not able to kill an S-rank boss alone, what else can trap him?"
"What are you talking about (dumbfounded) Am I the only one who cares about B-Gege's appearance being awesome? This doesn't look like the effect of a teleportation charm."
"Indeed, tearing through space or something... Is there any item that can do this?"
"Isn't this very similar to the airdropped letter? Was it also sent through space? (An An Da Wu.jpg)"
…
Bai Dayo walked into the surveillance area in broad daylight and was quickly discovered by the employees who were observing attentively.
Although they were surprised at the other party's sudden appearance, their good professional ethics made them immediately hold the phone to report, their eyes fixed on the screen to continue monitoring, and visually estimating the distance to the government.
Suddenly, the young man who was being watched stopped and turned around slowly, with the hem of his windbreaker lifting up and lightly brushing his calves.
He raised his head and stared at the flickering red dot, as if he was peeking at the person behind him through the surveillance camera.
The employee was stunned when he saw this. Before he could react, he saw the expressionless face on the screen reveal a gentle smile in the next second. His eyes were slightly curved, and his dark pupils seemed to have twisted silk threads circling, which was invisibly captivating.
"!"
His thoughts suddenly froze, his sight was captured and invaded the moment they made eye contact, and the control penetrated deep into his brain. The protective shell that originally served as a defense was easily crushed and shattered.
The employee's fingers were stiff, and the phone he hadn't dialed slipped from his hand and slammed heavily on the table, but no one cared.
The room fell into an eerie silence.
And on the screen, the young man who was humming happily took out an unknown supernatural device, and under the gaze of several pairs of lifeless eyes, he openly embedded it in the location that had already been decided.
The barrage exploded again.
“What the hell???”
"No, this ability can ignore distance and can be used through a monitor? And it can control multiple at once??"
"What is that black column with blue light? How did it go into the ground as if it was swallowed by the ground?"
"Why is Bai Zhou brother so awesome? Because he is kind (thumbs up.jpg)"
"Don't mess with the formula! Drag him out!"
"I've already sensed the bloody storm on the forum. It's destined to be another hair-loss night (prayer.jpg)"
"Forget about the employees. I am distracted by those eyes even though there is a screen and a dimensional wall between us... What a great pair of eyes... (Dementia)"
…
In the cartoon, a hand picks up the fallen phone and dials the number belonging to the boss.
[Hello, sir.] A young man suspected to be an alien with supernatural powers has appeared on the surveillance screen and is currently walking towards the government at a steady speed. He is expected to arrive in seven minutes. 】
[This man is tall and slender, wearing a black windbreaker, and looks to be around twenty years old. 】
An employee reported in a clear and steady voice.
The officer who answered the phone in the office nodded.
[I know, it’s this person.] 】
[Thank you for your hard work. You can go to the logistics department to collect the relevant items after the end. 】
After saying that, he stood up and walked outside, intending to greet this psychic in person.
——
The barrage originally thought that Bai Zhou’s use of the advanced teleportation talisman as a walking prop was enough to make him spend money lavishly.
But they didn't expect that this person would waste the new type of dropped item, a life-saving artifact that is rare once in a century and has never been released, so wastefully! !
This is no different from using your treasured SSR for warehouse management; using a tablet as a frisbee; staying in a five-star hotel but sleeping on the floor; eating only white rice among a table full of delicious food...! It is simply a waste of resources, insane and unreasonable, and extremely heartbreaking! !
Not to mention the senior executives at the headset, even some readers with maximum empathy felt a lump in their hearts and a taste of blood in their throats.
There are even people who are having fun and enjoying the current barrage, saying “ahaha” non-stop.
The rest are the forum bigwigs who suddenly realize and work hard to record, and the ordinary readers who are lurking and watching the show.
In the comics, Bai Zhou was invited to the conference room by his superior and took a seat amid the stiff smiles of many senior executives.
Then, he played with the dagger in his hand without caring about the lives of others, as if he was kneading the hearts of other people present in the air.
Hold on, hold on. Since he dares to do this to the dagger, it means he must have other good things as a trump card. This is a key person who can break the current situation!
Taking a deep breath and exhaling, the old man who had been cursing Bai Zhou in the headset now sat in silence with a gloomy face. Two people under the table grabbed his arms and held him down.
As the only calm officer in the room, he took the initiative to act as the speaker and broke the silence:
[Mr. Bai Zhou, you actually took out a dagger like this as a bargaining chip. It should not be just for the chair at the highest point, right? 】
[We are willing to establish cooperation with you, but as allies, I think we still need to get to know each other. 】
[That’s right.] 】A lady in a suit calmly replied,【The government appreciates your help to our potential team, but as superiors, we need to be responsible to our employees. 】
Bai Zhou nodded in agreement and answered in cooperation: [Of course, the premise of cooperation is mutual trust. 】
The senior executives narrowed their eyes and felt that things were not that simple.
When a tough guy suddenly becomes soft, it doesn't mean he is harmless. Maybe he is just preparing to do a sit-up and intends to hit you with a headbutt when you lower your head.
They looked at each other tacitly and secretly complained to each other.
An intellectual lady wearing glasses received a hint from her colleague. She cleared her throat, subconsciously pushed the legs of her glasses, and took the lead in speaking:
[Since you said so, let’s use the most effective method to have the conversation. 】
After saying that, she stretched out her hand swiftly, and pure white mist condensed in her palm, faintly visible.
Blow gently, and the mist will fly obediently to the center of the table and stay there.
The lady raised her hand.
[This is my special ability, the ability to test truth and lies. 】
Please don't mind, sir, this is not because I don't trust you. While it exists, we will also be subject to the same restrictions, creating good conditions for dialogue in this space. 】
[Of course, for the sake of mutual efficiency, this is the optimal solution. 】Bai Zhou responded with a smile and raised his hand to signal them to do as they please.
The lady with glasses smiled back. She folded her hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and stared into the young man's eyes, not missing any change on his face.
[Well, let me ask the question first: Mr. Bai Zhou, how did you know about the actions of the cult? Besides this, where did you get the information about our potential team? 】
The atmosphere in the conference room became heavy.
Everyone is secretly looking in the same direction.
[I have a connection with cults.] Simply put, there is a grudge, and it is not a small one. After learning that they were all wiped out, I began to have doubts. 】
Bai Ri answered obediently as he had said.
[Will such a crazy and inhumane camp really disappear after a short period of rampage? 】
[I don't believe it and am keeping a close eye on developments in this regard. And some time ago, I learned about their revival using special methods and successfully stopped an attack. 】
The white mist did not react, and the young man did not lie.
[Special method?] 】The lady with glasses raised her eyebrows and asked.
Bai Zhou shook his head and refused to answer the question.
[No one would reveal their cards right away, ma'am. Just like you won't tell me how many backup plans your government has. 】
【......】
Rubbing her fingers on the table, the lady with glasses thought for a moment and simply nodded.
[Excuse me.] 】
So, what about the second question? 】
She reminded.
[Second question...] The young man lowered his eyelashes and considered his words. But he did not respond directly, but brought up an irrelevant topic:
[By the way, have you ever thought that perhaps your house has been successfully infiltrated by some unknown pests without your knowledge? 】
【! 】
The impatient old man was not held down after all. Hearing this, he stood up suddenly, looking angry, and his old voice sounded as if he was about to die in the next second:
What do you mean? Could it be possible that you, an outsider, know the situation better than us? 】
[You should speak with evidence, young man, you'd better...]
Under Bai Day's smiling gaze, the old man was gently covered over the mouth by the gentle-faced young man beside him, and was physically silenced.
The man smiled apologetically at the young man, and pushed the old man back to his seat with seemingly gentle force but with great strength.
[I’m so sorry, sir.] Please continue. 】
He gestured to the daylight in an awkward manner.
Some people who were ready to make a move became discouraged by this, and patted their heads and pretended nothing had happened. Some people were unwilling to give in, and finally kept silent under the dangerous gaze of others.
Bai Zhou looked around and took note of the expressions of everyone present, finding it very interesting.
The small conference room actually contained three attitudes at the same time: radical conservatives, conservative radicals, and the self-centered and sensible people. That’s amazing! There must have been a lot of noise after receiving that letter, right?
He began to mourn for the missing "mind-reading" again.
Taking a sip of tea, the young man continued:
[We all know that the methods used by cults have become much more sophisticated nowadays. Maybe they had no other ideas about your house at the beginning and just wanted to preach, but this may not be the case after a crackdown. 】
[Even a brainless fanatic will gradually grow under the blow. The timely leakage of the psychic's information, the extremely high probability of something going wrong in the competition, and the familiarity with the copy... everything is too coincidental. 】
[Have you really never had any doubts?] 】
The top executives sighed secretly.
Doubts, of course I have doubts.
But there are too many government employees, insufficient clues, and it is impossible to calculate them one by one by just guessing. The lives of people with special abilities are also lives!
In addition, the upcoming Battle of Zhuolu was fraught with danger, and the heavy layers of protection they had set up directly consumed all their energy.
Who knew that during the end times, not only would we have to worry about the future of humanity, but we would also have to guard against a cult that would stab the human camp in the back?
The lady with glasses took off her glasses, closed her eyes and gently rubbed her sore eyes, feeling a little tired.
She did not put on her glasses again. After opening her eyes, she looked directly at Bai Zhou. He was still as relaxed as ever, standing out from the crowd.
[You said this, is there any way to solve this problem? 】
The lady asked.
Everyone's eyes returned to Bai Zhou after hearing these words.
【certainly. 】The young man smiled and said,【I know more than you think. 】
[To celebrate our collaboration, let me tell you about my plans? I guarantee it's enough to catch a big fish. 】
He tilted his head slightly, with an expression that was familiar to his superior, an unbridled confidence and self-assurance.
Damn it.
Everyone thought to themselves as they looked at the mist which remained pure white and fell into deep thought for a long time.
There's definitely no problem with the polygraph.
So the problem is the person named Bai Zhou.
Damn this (expletive), where does this person come from? How can everything he says be true? ?
