"What's wrong?"
"Let's not talk about anything else. When I was on the beach, I used my mental power to scan the entire island. There was no sign of any life at all, and there was no power generation equipment." Lin Qiye bent down and picked up a piece of wire that had aged to the point of rotting and breaking from the ground. "Then... where does the electricity here come from?"
Everyone looked at the half wire in Lin Qiye's hand and fell into silence.
The rhythmic jazz music, accompanied by dreamy and blurry flickering lights, pushed the atmosphere in the ballroom to a climax. A tall woman with black hair in a cheongsam and a well-mannered, mature man in a suit, hugged each other lightly on the dance floor, dancing elegantly and passionately, seemingly completely unaware of the presence of Lin Qiye and others.
Just when Lin Qiye and others were about to make a move, a figure in the dance floor glanced at the door and smiled slightly.
He was a young man wearing a floral shirt and bell-bottom pants. He gently pulled down the black sunglasses on his nose, winked at the slim woman in his arms, then smiled and let go of her slender waist, slid naturally across the dance floor, and stood steadily in the center of the dance floor.
He waved his hand, and a standing microphone with a sense of age appeared in front of him. He held the microphone with both hands, leaned back slightly, raised his chin and looked in the direction of Lin Qiye and others, and shouted loudly:
"New friends! Are you all right?!"
[Nightfall] Team: ???
"What the hell is this?" Baili Pangpang couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
"Qiya, he seems to be calling us, should we respond or not?"
"...Wait a minute." Lin Qiye's expression was extremely strange. "This person seems to have some mental problems. I'm not sure. I'll observe him for a while..."
Just as Lin Qiye and the others were whispering, the figure wearing the frog-eye glasses started shouting again:
"Alright! Let's give a round of applause to... Team Nightfall!!"
The lights above their heads suddenly brightened, and everyone on the dance floor stopped and applauded Lin Qiye and the others with smiles. The applause was thunderous.
Lin Qiye and others were completely dumbfounded.
Even Lin Qiye, who had killed "Mystery", chopped down gods, and was used to life-and-death crisis scenes, for a moment doubted his life in this extremely weird scene.
Amid the endless applause from the crowd, Baili Pangpang hesitated for a moment and tentatively stretched out his hand...
"Ahem... um... hello everyone, hello everyone!"
Lin Qiye frowned slightly, calmed himself down, took a deep breath, and walked straight to the center of the dance floor.
The crimson cloak looked like blood under the bright light. When the men and women surrounding the dance floor saw Lin Qiye coming, they immediately made way for him and retreated to the sides.
Lin Qiye stood in the middle of the dance floor. He frowned as he looked at the young man in front of him who was wearing frog-eye glasses and had a faint smile on his face. He spoke in a deep voice:
"I am Lin Qiye, the captain of the Nightfall team. May I ask... who are you?"
"Tsk, are all the young people of your generation so straightforward?"
The young man sighed and waved his hand gently. The rhythmic jazz music in the dance floor came to an abrupt end. At the same time, the men and women gathered on both sides flashed and disappeared out of thin air, as if they had never appeared.
The young man stretched out his hand and spoke slowly:
"My name is Li Kengqiang."
Li Kengqiang?
This name flashed through Lin Qiye's mind, making him feel strangely familiar... and he seemed to have seen this face somewhere before.
While Lin Qiye was thinking hard, he subconsciously grasped the hand that Li Kengqiang extended. At this moment, his pupils suddenly contracted!
He remembered!
Li Kengqiang!
The second commander-in-chief of the Night Watch of Daxia! Li Kengqiang!
In the corridor of the Night Watch headquarters, Lin Qiye had seen his profile. After the death of Mr. Nie Jinshan, the first commander-in-chief of the Night Watch, he took charge of the Night Watch for nine years. He was one of the earliest human ceilings!
But...how is this possible?
Lin Qiye quickly let go of the young man's hand and stared into his eyes with extremely sharp eyes.
"You're lying to me." Lin Qiye said coldly, "Commander Li Kengqiang died in battle more than 50 years ago. How could he be here? Who... are you?"
Boom——!
There was a gleam in Lin Qiye's eyes, he suddenly raised his right foot and stepped heavily on the floating bricks!
An invisible field suddenly opened up, and the magnificent ballroom suddenly flickered twice like an old color TV with poor contact.
The floating brick floor under Lin Qiye's feet quickly receded like the tide, revealing the dusty and uneven cement floor. At the same time, the gorgeous crystal ceiling above his head turned into an old light bulb with half of it broken.
[The End of the King’s Law]!
From the very beginning, Lin Qiye felt that something was wrong with this place. Ever since the young man showed up, he became more and more certain that this place was fake. If he guessed correctly, everything here was an illusion created by the young man's forbidden ruins ability.
Since it is the ability of Jinxu, then the [Law of the End of the World] that can force Jinxu to submit will naturally be effective.
As expected by Lin Qiye, as the [Law of the End of the World] unfolded, the surrounding environment suddenly revealed flaws. However, even if Lin Qiye used all his strength, he could only disperse a small area around him and could not completely counter the opponent's Forbidden Ruins.
This means that no matter who this young man in front of him is, his strength is far above Lin Qiye... He is at least a human ceiling.
Seeing that Lin Qiye had actually torn open a corner of the forbidden ruins, the young man let out a surprised sigh.
"That's interesting... As expected of a young man that even Big Brother praises."
Lin Qiye was about to speak, but when he saw that the young man's appearance had not changed at all under his [Law of the End of the World], he suddenly froze in place.
According to his idea, since everything around him was an illusion created by this young man, he must have used this method to disguise himself as Li Kengqiang... But strangely, under the [Law of the End of the World], his appearance did not return to its original state.
This is what he originally looked like.
"How is this possible..." Lin Qiye shook his head, "Who are you?"
"I told you, I'm Li Kengqiang." Li Kengqiang spread his hands helplessly, "Young man, why don't you believe it... Your name is Lin Qiye, the first place in the 21st Night Watch Recruit Training Camp, a former member of Team 136, and the current captain of the [Nightfall] team. Behind you is the deputy captain An Qingyu, as well as Baili Pangpang, Cao Yuan, Jiang Er... Currently, one team member is still asleep, and one team member is missing.
It was Zuo Qing who asked you to come here, right? "
Seeing Li Kengqiang report the details of [Night] in such detail, including Zuo Qing's name, Lin Qiye was a little confused...
Now it is basically certain that this young man is indeed a member of the Night Watch.
Could it be... that he is really Commander Li Kengqiang?
But how could a dead person stand here and talk to them?
As if he had noticed the doubts of Lin Qiye and the others, Li Kengqiang shrugged his shoulders and said, "It seems that if I don't give you some experience, you won't believe it..."
Li Kengqiang narrowed his eyes slightly and snapped his fingers with his right hand!
boom--!!
The ground beneath the feet of the crowd began to tremble violently, and the surging torrent of national destiny surged into the sky, like a giant golden dragon's head, roaring towards the sky!
Li Kengqiang stood at the foot of the golden dragon of national destiny, his floral shirt fluttering in the wind.
He pushed the frog-shaped glasses on his nose and said with a chuckle:
"Welcome to... the Heroic Spirit team's base."
