Chapter 687 The last place, China!



"…So, you wiped out the entire Neon branch of the Earth Guardians?"

At the top of Mount Tai, Lin Zhongtian looked at Danas beside him speechlessly and asked.

Danas spread his hands and said innocently, "There's nothing I can do. Who asked them to go so far?"

"Compared to them, the North American branch seems like a good guy..."

"Boss, you know me well. I love children the most, especially those who are not yet rebellious. I can't help myself when I see them using those innocent children as sacrifices!"

"Also, I didn't wipe out the entire Neon branch. Some good people still survived."

"For example, the few branch employees who secretly helped this year's sacrifice survive the blood sacrifice ceremony..."

Lin Zhongtian was slightly startled and asked in surprise: "Is there such a thing?"

Danas nodded and said, "Yes, originally the five children were doomed to fail in the face of the ghosts. It was those people who secretly helped and guided the five selected children this year to seal the ghosts. This is why Neon's blood sacrifice ceremony this year completely failed."

Lin Zhongtian said speechlessly: "Is there really such a person among the Earth Guardians?"

"Has he never thought that if the blood sacrifice ceremony fails, it will lead to the end of mankind on the entire earth?"

Danas spread his hands and said, "Didn't we still have the North American branch to support us at that time~"

"But Boss, I never thought you would criticize this kind of behavior..."

Lin Zhongtian shook his head and said, "It's not criticism, it's just pure argument."

Danas's face darkened and he asked, "Can something like this be said so naturally?"

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said softly: "If you want to know my attitude, then I can only disappoint you."

"…Why?"

"Because in my eyes, the boundary between life and death is no longer so clear, and my perspective on problems has become more comprehensive. A momentary kindness and the determination to cut off one's tail and survive in order to save the world are equal to me. There is no distinction between high and low."

Danas stared at Lin Zhongtian in a daze and couldn't help asking, "Then why are you arguing?"

Lin Zhongtian said with a smile: "Because I am happy to do so!"

Danas frowned slightly. Although Lin Zhongtian still acted with a sense of evil, Danas still vaguely realized that the boss... was becoming more and more like the God next door.

Lin Zhongtian glanced at Danas, and as if he could see through his heart, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, my reserves of humanity are still abundant. Besides, I still have you and the Alliance. These are my anchors of humanity. With you and the Traveler Alliance, I don't think I will become like Ilúvatar and God so soon."

“…I think so.”

Danas shrugged casually.

Just then, Yamu, who had changed into a sports suit, walked over from the mountain path.

Danas's eyes lit up, and he quickly stepped forward and asked, "How is China handling it?"

Yamu stopped, glanced at him, and then shook his head.

Danas was stunned for a moment, then frowned and asked, "Is it difficult?"

Yamu shook his head and said, "No, what I mean is that there is no need to deal with this."

Danas was surprised and asked, "Ah? Why?"

Yamu said seriously, "Because The Cabin in the Woods is a movie that satirizes assembly-line horror movies, and the domestic horror movie market is sluggish and the quality is worrying. People don't bother to let China participate, so there are no ghosts in China, or in other words, there are no horror movies worth paying tribute to."

Danas's face darkened: "I know that, but I'm asking about this world, not this movie!"

Yamu curled his lips, then finally got serious and said seriously: "Because... the Mausoleum of the First Emperor is pressing on the Titan Seal. The power of the Titan has not penetrated into the human world, and monsters and demons cannot be born from human fear."

"The Huaxia branch's only duty is to guard the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. There is no blood sacrifice ceremony."

Danas was stunned when he heard this, and then he sighed: "Can it be explained like this?"

Lin Zhongtian turned his head and looked in a certain direction, and said with emotion: "Brother Zheng..."

Ya Mu shook his head and said, "It's not just the First Emperor. There are also Zhang Daoling, Cao Mengde, Di Renjie and other generations of heroes who cut down mountains and destroyed temples, banned the construction of shrines, and continuously consolidated the seal of the First Emperor's Mausoleum. This is what makes China a special case in this world."

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "This is not a special case. It is the inevitable result of China's continuous and long history of 5,000 years and the courageous struggles of heroes from all generations."

"If I'm not mistaken, the Chinese branch should have complete records of the seal, right?"

Yamu nodded and said, "That's right. From the time of Qin Shihuang to the present, the secret history related to the seal has never been cut off."

Danas said thoughtfully: "This is the advantage of civilization."

Even in such a hopeless world, they never gave up the fight.

Danas said with emotion: "But to be honest, the Chinese in this world should really thank the sluggish horror film market in the Source Universe..."

Yamu glanced at him and said, "No, we should thank the zombie movies that were once very popular, because Taoist priests are basically present in those zombie movies. Therefore, the world of horror movies in China has mysterious powers that mortals can master."

"Although these powers cannot make them superhuman, they can restrain ghosts and monsters, and even seal gods in mortal bodies."

"Qin Shi Huang and his Mausoleum are the best examples."

The three of them stood on the mountain path and talked, their words full of emotions that others could not understand.

They were at a relatively high altitude, and the tourists passing by were already exhausted from being tortured by Mount Tai, and had no intention of paying attention to the immature conversation between the three psychopaths next to them.

Yamu looked at the lush mountains and asked softly, "What should we do with the Earth Guardians from other branches?"

Lin Zhongtian looked at him in surprise and said as a matter of course: "Of course, let the humans handle it themselves!"

Danas was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Should we not care?"

"No need." Lin Zhongtian shook his head, and then asked softly, "Have you read The Three-Body Problem?"

Yamu and Danas looked at each other, then nodded and said, "Of course."

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "Then you should have heard a saying - humans don't thank Luo Ji."

Yamu and Danas were both stunned when they heard this.

They all know that Luo Ji is the protagonist of the second part of The Three-Body Problem, "The Dark Forest". He is also the sword-bearer who saves the earth in the future and threatens both the Three-Body Problem and the Earth with his own strength.

But...why did you suddenly bring this up?

Yamu and Danas were both a little confused, so they listened quietly to Lin Zhongtian's explanation.

Lin Zhongtian said softly: "From ancient Rome more than 2,000 years ago to the future world hundreds of years later, humans have actually not changed."

"When a crisis comes, they will elect a dictator to make decisions for them, and when the crisis is over, the dictator who once held all the power and turned the tide becomes a thorn in their eyes."

"The dictatorship system in ancient Rome and the sword-wielder in the world of The Three-Body Problem are both like this."

Yamu said thoughtfully: "You mean, the Earth Guardian is the dictator of ancient Rome and the sword bearer in "The Three-Body Problem"? "

Lin Zhongtian nodded and sighed, "Yes, before the crisis is resolved, the Earth Defenders are indeed heroes who save the world, but after the crisis is resolved, they are also outright anti-human criminals."

"Just wait and see. After we leave, the governments of the countries that once worked together with the Earth Guardians will definitely settle accounts with the Earth Guardians and make them bear all the sins of mankind, so that the remaining people can live in peace without having their consciences condemned by what happened in the past..."

Yamu sighed: "How cruel and heartless!"

Lin Zhongtian nodded, then shook his head: "From an individual perspective, this is indeed the case, but from the perspective of humanity as a whole, this is a benign behavior that removes some of the lesions and makes the whole better."

"The bottom line is, this is a human's own choice, so I'm not going to interfere."

"After all, this modern world is not worth ruling. We should just do our best and let things take their own course..."

Yamu nodded, indicating that he understood what Lin Zhongtian meant.

Danas sighed, covered his forehead and said, "So, I did do some unnecessary things..."

Lin Zhongtian glanced at him and said, "Not superfluous. That country has always liked to shelter war criminals. I will definitely support you in clearing out their branch."

"And then everyone will know that they have offended you. In order to establish a relationship with us, all five permanent members of the UN Security Council, including North America, will question them..."

Having said that, Lin Zhongtian suddenly paused, turned his head and glanced at a seemingly ordinary middle-aged man in the crowd.

"…Is he from the Huaxia branch?"

Yamu sensed the direction and nodded, "It should be."

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "It seems that he is the one who was ordered to contact us!"

Danas asked with interest, "Do you want to contact them?"

Lin Zhongtian thought about it, shook his head and said, "Forget it, there is no need... But then again, China in this world has performed better than I expected. I like this spirit of resisting disasters instead of escaping."

"So, give them some rewards!"

As he spoke, streams of air suddenly appeared around Lin Zhongtian.

All the tourists in the surrounding area noticed the strong wind that was blowing up out of nowhere, and they all looked at Lin Zhongtian and the other two in astonishment.

Lin Zhongtian just waved his right hand, and a long sword with a bright green light flew out from the void, turned into a green light and flew to the top of Mount Tai, and in the shocked eyes of everyone, it pierced directly in front of the stone tablet with the words "The Most Dominant of the Five Mountains".

Everyone looked towards the top of the mountain in astonishment, and then quickly looked at Lin Zhongtian and the other two.

But at this time, the three young figures had disappeared from the spot.

Just when everyone was feeling a little disappointed, a young man widened his eyes, pointed at the sky above his head and shouted excitedly.

"Fuck, look, they're in the sky!"

"Um?"

"Um?!!"

"Really in heaven?!"

Everyone exclaimed and looked up at the sky, only to see that the three men had changed into green robes at some point, and were standing on flying swords, floating above everyone's heads, looking like ethereal and otherworldly.

Especially the leader, who was handsome and had an extraordinary temperament, and looked like a peerless swordsman who came out of a novel.

"Fuck, Sword Immortal!"

Seeing this scene, many young people couldn't help but swear. Most of them hurriedly took out their mobile phones, pointed them at the sky with excitement, trying to take pictures of the three sword masters flying their swords.

Some young and immature people were so excited that they wanted to become disciples on the spot, wanting the three sword masters to accept them as apprentices.

“Buzz!!”

At this moment, the long sword inserted in front of the Five Mountains Supreme Stone emitted a light green ripple.

All the tourists caught in the ripples, regardless of gender, age or status, heard this voice in their minds.

"Today, the Taishan Sword Sect has seen the light of day again and has opened its gates. All the descendants of Yan and Huang who are interested can go up the mountain to accept the test. Anyone who can be recognized by the Qingyuan Immortal Sword will be a registered disciple of our Taishan Sword Sect and will be granted the Immortal Scripture, practice sword techniques, and enjoy the path to immortality..."

The majestic and powerful voice kept echoing in everyone's mind.

Those young people who had read the novel and watched the film and television works immediately became excited. They stood up from their original places and climbed the mountain bravely, as if all the previous fatigue had disappeared.

And not only them, everyone else was also talking excitedly.

Some people waved their arms vigorously and shouted excitedly, trying to attract the attention of the three sword immortals above their heads.

But unfortunately, after the long sword emitted light blue ripples, the three sword immortals seemed to have finished what they were supposed to do. They immediately turned into three streams of light and flew off to the distant horizon on their swords.

Among the excited crowd, the middle-aged man from the Huaxia branch stared blankly at the three streams of light in the sky, then at the long sword at the top of Mount Tai that was constantly emitting light blue ripples, and then he couldn't help but sighed and said to the hidden microphone on his collar:

"Captain... this is going to be a big trouble!"
