Chapter 96 Messenger Bird
The wide vertical elevator descended like a floor, and one by one, the "divine generals" came out. They were divided on both sides, like a crescent moon, and gradually surrounded Heshia and other "sword protectors".
The current ruler of Jielou City, Gu Yongrong's brother, Gu Qianlou walked out slowly. He was wearing a black cloak with gold edges, like an ancient lonely king, and the metal mask on his face was similar to a bird, highlighting the majestic image of the Yin Vulture.
The black pupils under the mask slowly swept across the whole scene. He disdained these weak "sword protectors" and just wanted to see who was so bold.
Finally, his eyes stopped at the black-haired girl in the snow skirt in the middle. Looking at the face that was similar to his former sister Gu Yongrong, his eyes finally changed several times.
"Take her down."
"Yes."
Hundreds of colorfully armored 'God Generals' rushed towards the swordsman beside the girl, while thirty 'God Generals' with black faces and black armor and four flying flags on their backs slowly surrounded Heshia.
Each of them had the strength of a Dragon Sequence 5, with a strong aura and unleashed magic power, giving people a mysterious and dangerous feeling.
The so-called 'God Generals' were originally official soldiers of the ancient dynasties, but as humans entered the interstellar era, the dynasty gradually disappeared in history, and some of their inherited classics and secrets were also transformed into factions that practiced the extraordinary sequence, which was the predecessor of the 'God General Hall'.
Heshia felt that the auras of the thirty black-faced God Generals in front of her seemed to be vaguely connected, and when they moved, it was like a black cloud pressing down, and even the Aigeka particles around them slowed down a bit, giving a strong sense of oppression.
Resonance secret technique?
Although in the past, only the war sequence could resonate and connect on a large scale to form an invincible military formation, the power of this secret technique has always been envied by other sequences. Later, each sequence also developed similar secret techniques, but the scope and number of people are difficult to compare with the war sequence.
The past dynasties and the door have long studied this, which is probably the origin of the black dragon-shaped formation in front of them.
Heshia thought that if she did not show her special talents and only relied on the abilities brought by the Blue Bird Branch Breaking Job, she would be at a disadvantage in dealing with such a battle, and there is even the possibility of being trapped and captured alive.
Should I use my talents?
If it was a distant ancient environment, Heshia might fly up like a real blue bird, letting the abilities brought by her talents be fully exerted to change this difficult situation.
However, this is the Rose Federation, a powerful country with countless galaxies, many races, and even trillions of people. The power of civilization can even tear apart galaxies and planets and destroy small worlds.
She was not mentally prepared to open up everything and welcome this vast world. Although she knew that once her talent as a singer was revealed, she would be able to gain the support of countless bigwigs and even giant companies, Heshia still didn't want to do so.
The road of life should be explored and experienced step by step by herself. She hopes to see all kinds of colors in life, whether it is mixed with tears and crying, or helplessness and sadness.
Happiness should be the calmness that persists after experiencing wind and rain, rather than the naivety and simplicity that is carefully protected in a greenhouse.
The world is not all rainbows, it is also a place full of meanness and filth. If you don't want others to laugh at your ideals, either hide them or stand up and use a fierce counterattack to prove his mistakes and ridiculousness.
Having ideals does not necessarily lead to success, but the will to stick to ideals can allow an ordinary person to get through the most difficult and dark moments, and step by step hone abilities far beyond ordinary people. This is the most valuable part.
If she only relies on the ability of a singer, she can certainly win and change now, but I am afraid that after a long time, she will no longer have the courage to hold the sword.
If you always take the convenient and comfortable shortcut, you will never be able to walk the rugged mountain road full of stones again. The power of inertia and laziness is so strong that people gradually sink and become weaker.
After entering the interstellar era, the development of various technologies has made people's lives more and more comfortable, but more and more shortcuts have slowly worn away people's will. Entertainment is so cheap and easy, but learning is so uncomfortable. Typing on the keyboard and arguing with people is so refreshing, but burying your head in practice is so troublesome and trivial. The repeated overthrow and reconstruction of cognition is always painful.
Her eyes slowly opened, and Heshia looked at the black-faced gods who rushed towards her and surrounded her. She jumped up, her hair and dress flew together, and the silver sword flowers intertwined with the long swords and halberds that were cut down, making dense and continuous collision sounds, sparks flying, and fine crystals bursting out and falling in the air.
After a few breaths, the sword blade broke, turning into tiny silver lights that fell, and then Heshia turned over in the air like a swallow, soaring straight up, and another ancient sword with green spikes and silver blades gathered in front of her.
The sword light danced wildly, and the silver-white sword arcs were like streams of flying swallows, shooting into the formation below, breaking one extraordinary long weapon after another, tearing open the black flag, and cutting into armor.
However, the counterattack soon came, and the black-clothed "divine generals" changed their formations again, and their breath sank, and then the sword arcs that rushed into the formation were also diluted by the black cloud-like breath, and their power weakened, unable to cut off the long handle of the weapon.
"Hah!"
Then the thirty black-clothed "divine generals" stared straight at the girl in the air, and the dark painted faces oozed color, imprinted on Heshia, causing her body to freeze, as if she had been hit hard and vomited blood in her heart.
When Heshia fell to the ground, before she could stand firm, a long sword and a long halberd slashed down. Even if she managed to cut off a few of them, new swords and halberds would come down, suffocating her.
In the shrill light of the long sword, the sword body shattered, and Heshia retreated a few steps, and then was forced by the long halberd stabbing from behind, so she had to turn over to avoid it. In an instant, another long sword slashed down vertically, suppressing her possible escape space.
These "divine generals" are the elite among the elites of Jielou City. Not only are they powerful, but they also cooperate tacitly, gradually forcing the girl into a dead end.
Blocking the long sword again, just as Tilan was about to dodge the long halberd attacking from the side, another long sword slashed down at a tricky angle, leaving a long cut on the girl's body, and blood dyed her snow-white dress red for a while.
Finally avoiding this stagger, Tilan waved her bleeding arms and sleeves and stood up again, and dark red blood slowly dripped from the tip of the sword.
Seeing this, the black-clad generals also stopped their actions for the time being and just surrounded Tilan. After all, Gu Qianlou's order was only to capture her, not to really kill the girl.
The execution of orders also depends on the target. After all, the girl in front of them is Gu Qianlou's niece and Gu Yongrong's daughter. She is the object of support of contemporary "sword protectors". It is not appropriate to kill her rashly.
In response, Gu Qianlou snorted coldly, but didn't say anything. Instead, he stepped into the formation step by step, and finally stopped ten meters in front of Tilan.
"Did you come back here just to let so many people die with you?" He asked coldly.
"No." Tilan shook her head and looked at the sword guards behind her. The battle was still going on.
"You guys retreat first, and don't have to follow me." Seeing that these people didn't listen, she spoke again.
"This is an order."
In response, these sword guards had to slowly retreat, and seeing this, Gu Qianlou also raised his hand and asked those gods to stop for the time being.
"Very good, you are still somewhat rational."
Tilan sighed softly. In fact, she had not thought of involving these "sword protectors". She could just go to Gu Qianlou alone. Whether she succeeded or failed, she could easily get away. But Ge Lianfeng misunderstood her meaning and had summoned everyone with the sword order, which led to the current situation.
"I came back here not to seek revenge, nor to split Jielou City..." Tilan began to talk.
"My mother didn't even tell me anything about Jielou City before she died." She shook her head.
"Oh, then why are you standing here today?" Gu Qianlou looked through the mask and stared at the girl.
Shaking off the blood on the blade in her hand and slowly putting it back into the scabbard at her waist, Tilan's heart was filled with many emotions, some trepidation, some determination, and some nostalgia.
"I know that you and everyone in Jielou City have their own persistence. If we rashly let everyone scatter in all directions, it may not be a good idea, but to leave the future to an uncertain fate." Her words were recognized by many people present.
"However, if we continue to stay here, we will just relive the old dreams over and over again, and we will never be able to move forward. I think you should also know what kind of future that will be."
"Humph." Gu Qianlou did not object.
"Even the magnificent Qianlou City was built step by step by our ancestors. Since our ancestors were able to escape here and build Jielou City step by step under such a difficult situation, why can't we also build a new Qianlou Rufan City in other places?"
"You said it so lightly, just a simple sentence." A tall god general stood up behind Gu Qianlou.
"Nowadays, there are forces in all the star fields in the Federation. Whether it is the extraordinary factions, giant enterprises, or national organizations, they have already divided up everything in the local area. How can we easily intervene?"
"Besides, it is so difficult to migrate across the star field. It's okay if it's a small population, but do you want to abandon the tens of thousands of people in this city?"
"If we don't go to other planets, we can stay in this Emerald Skirt, or even in the northern districts?" Heshia spoke again.
"On my way here, although the whole road was desolate, there were also many empty areas. Since the Jade Skirt economy moved south, many areas in the northern districts have been vacant."
"So what? What's the difference between this Jielou City? Many things even need to be rebuilt." The general shook his head and thought it was ridiculous.
"In addition, the federal government of the Four-leaf Crystal Star Region has also stated that it will no longer provide management AIs to cities in the North Second District." He added again.
"If it is in the North Second District, there is really no way, but if you go to other districts, I think you can still apply for the federal management AI." Heshia spoke slowly.
"Haha, you said you would apply? Do you know how much a T2-level management AI is worth on the black market?"
"At least 3 billion federal coins, and this is an old model that has been eliminated."
Under the continuous questioning, everyone thought that Heshia would have no rebuttal, and even leave in shame to give up her previous naive statement.
However, after a few seconds of silence, she spoke slowly again.
"What if I can do it?"
In fact, she had sent an email to Edes Academy in the previous pavilion and received a positive answer.
[I was very surprised to receive a message from classmate Heshia, but since you asked this question, we can also reply to classmate Heshia with certainty.]
[With the strength of Edes Academy, it is just a matter of raising one hand to deploy a T2-level AI. However, if it is to be installed in the North Second District, it is necessary to take action in the Star Region Council and initiate a proposal. It will take about a year to change the previous statement.]
[The academy has long known about your mother's life experience. If you can reach the strength and influence of a Star-level singer before graduation, even without relying on the power of the academy, you can make the Star Region Government give in, because this is not an important policy, but just a measure taken by the Star Region Government to save money.]
At that time, she only sent an email to ask whether Jielou City could get some preferential policies from the Federation to help with migration, but she didn't expect Fernandi to reply with detailed information, whether it was the reconstruction of the city or the plan to migrate to other places.
For a star-level school with 14 T2-level AI-assisted scientific research, it only takes a few minutes for the super AI to analyze and build a plan. It is very easy. Moreover, Fernandi had already investigated the background of Heshia's mother. When she asked, the other party vaguely guessed the girl's thoughts or wishes.
"If Heshia needs some armed support, we can also arrange and arrive in two hours. It is not difficult to defeat the stubborn resistance in Jielou City." When Fernandi said this easily during the call, Heshia finally understood the real strength and influence of Edes Academy in the Emerald Skirt.
This is not only an academy for cultivating students, but also a behemoth that brings together many political groups, large enterprises, experts in many fields, celebrities, etc. in the Emerald Skirt. There are many forces and figures behind each of the top six famous schools in the star field.
In this way, the actions of Pulin Koko, the "Flame Sugar" of the Swarm of Bees, at the concert at that time were just childish play in the eyes of adults.
The large transport plane directly under the Federation was ordered to carry personnel and equipment and fly directly from the South District 1 to the North District 7. At the same time, the entire Arpeggio City was strictly inspected and prepared several days in advance, and the federal military's "Messenger" class variable fighters escorted the entire city.
The governments of various star regions have always doted on their own singers, and this behavior is even approved by the residents of each star region.
"That's the cutest daughter in our star region. It's normal for her to be a little willful." It must be said that the beautiful and infectious singer has diluted many people's aversion to the star region government, and many policies will be implemented more smoothly. This is why the star region government cherishes its own singers.
Although Jielou City is already a large organization in the eyes of the girl, in the eyes of the entire Emerald Skirt, it is just a remote and backward place, and it is probably not as important as Arpeggio City.
When Fernandi sent various plans to Heshia for her to choose, she still did not choose the kind of fanfare that would allow the other party to allocate armed personnel for her.
"Just send a brand new T2 AI. Although it seems to be a relief to defeat my uncle, I'm afraid that the spirit in Jielou City will be dispersed." She would not do something that only cares about herself and does not consider the future.
"Okay, the supersonic transport plane has taken off and is expected to arrive in 1 hour. In addition, I wish Heshiya a happy vacation~"
Not long after Heshiya finished speaking, a slender white bird-like aircraft broke through the layers of air barriers and kept approaching the ruined city in the north that was forgotten by the federal government.
The whistling sound continued, and the white tail crossed the blue sky, like a messenger bird in mythology that conveyed the will of heaven.
PS: I recommend a friend's book "I'm a Ghost Story Witch in Tokyo", which is a novel full of life and has beautiful and cute protagonists, 0 0/~
