Above the gray fog

When he turned around completely, he finally met Lin Shan's eyes.

"Lin Shan, long time no see." The smile at the corner of Wu Wang's mouth gradually widened and eventually turned into a grin.

This smile seemed to make Lin Shan travel through time and return to thousands of years ago. The grin had not changed at all.

"Well, long time no see." Lin Shan replied with a smile.

The pioneers of the human race were his few true friends.

As he gradually becomes stronger, the word friend becomes farther and farther away from him. The way strong people get along is mostly an exchange of interests.

Outside the window, the city is still brightly lit and noisy.

In this top-floor office, time seemed to have stopped, leaving only the two people looking at each other and communicating silently with each other.

"Where did we say goodbye last time?" Wu Wang was the first to speak up, breaking the silence.

"It seems to be in a place called the Land of Giants." Lin Shan said.

"It seems to be after that. I remember, what else did we do together?" Wu Wang stretched out a finger and scratched his cheek.

"Forgot." Lin Shan replied.

"Hahaha, meeting an old friend in a foreign land is a great joy according to the tradition of Tianxia Capital. We won't go home until we get drunk tonight." Wu Wang laughed, stood up and hugged Lin Shan.

"It's not that I met an old friend in a foreign country. I came here specifically to find you. It's not like we won't return without getting drunk, because we can't get drunk, and we don't have a real destination." Lin Shan stared at Wu Wang. Wu Wang in his memory had already It became very blurry. Although it was blurry, the Wu Wang in front of him could not overlap with the Wu Wang in his memory.

"Hai, why are you so serious? I have to say that you still haven't changed at all. When did you start? It should have started from the advanced sequence 9." Wu Wang circled around Lin Shan, "It's really hard to imagine that a person has gone from Sequence 9 to Sequence 1 in thousands of years without any change. Even a fossil can leave a few lines after going through so much."

"Now you seem to have become a completely different person." Lin Shan sighed softly and found a seat from the side to sit down. "Have you recovered your memory?"

"Maybe I have changed in your eyes, but essentially I have not changed." Wu Wang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Before, I was just a young man who lived for hundreds or thousands of years. After recovering my memory, I became The difference between young people who have lived for countless years is... they cannot maintain the innocence they had before? "

"My 'existence' is me, and my 'memory' is also me. In my opinion, it's like Wu Wang from the beginning suddenly reincarnated into the Wu Wang of the old days, but he only gained the memories of the old Wu Wang. You Can you understand?"

"You mean, Wu Wang from the beginning is still controlling you?" Lin Shan asked.

"What you asked is a bit strange. You said it as if I had been taken away." Wu Wang showed a helpless expression, "You think of the previous Wu Wang as the Wu Wang who lost his memory, and the current Wu Wang as the recovered one. Wu Wang lost his memory, it’s that simple.”

Lin Shan actually understood Wu Wang's current state in his heart. He just wanted to ask more questions on purpose.

"I just looked at the pioneer statue outside. Has another pioneer disappeared?" Lin Shan asked, changing the topic.

"Yes." Wu Wang nodded.

Lin Shan frowned, "Who is it?"

"According to the records of the clan artifacts, it is a pioneer named Zhang Zhonghua." Wu Wang replied.

"Who is Zhang Zhonghua...?" Lin Shan closed his eyes and recalled. There was such a person in his mind, but he just couldn't remember it.

Now that he is Sequence 1, is he still unable to avoid losing his memory?

"There's no need to think about it. I can't remember it. Even the master can't remember it. This was the agreement made back then." Wu Wang saw Lin Shan's brows furrowed tightly and persuaded him, "Just forget it, no? Isn’t it good? It’s not sentimental.”

Lin Shan stood up and walked to the window, looking at the busy city below, "Can I not die?"

Wu Wang shook his head, "Do you know what 'human robbery' is and what is the purpose of 'human robbery'?" Wu Wang was about to explain to Lin Shan.

Lin Shan interrupted, "I just learned about the 'human tribulation' not long ago."

"Then you definitely know my answer. My answer is - I have to do it." Wu Wang said slowly, "If I don't carry out the agreed plan, won't the dozens of compatriots in front of me be let down in vain? Lin Shan, my dear friend, you should understand that once this kind of thing starts... there is no way to turn back. "

"I understand, tell me who the enemy is." Lin Shan took a deep breath and turned to look at Wu Wang.

"Don't be impulsive and don't make me a sinner, okay?" Wu Wang and Lin Shan looked at each other.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything." Lin Shan nodded.

"The enemy is the Void ethnic group controlled by Yuanting. They have discovered the human race here and started a preliminary war. Soon, a large number of crystalline creatures will surely come. The human race here will not be able to hold on for too long. They will wait for the sacrifice of the tribesmen. When the number is large enough, I will take action." Wu Wang said that he had already laid out all the specific plans.

"Crystalline creatures discovered that the human race here...were you actively attracted to them?" Lin Shan asked.

"Yes." Wu Wang nodded, "If there are no enemies, create enemies. All for the ultimate goal."

"I know this will lead to many sacrifices, but the human race can continue to reproduce now, and these sacrifices will eventually be rewarded. If we don't do this, the human race will no longer have the opportunity to reproduce in the future, and will completely disappear from the gray fog universe and even the entire void. This is an ending that many people don't want to see, including me." Wu Wang looked at Lin Shan with a firm look.

"Even you have become like this." Lin Shan smiled, "Yes, for the sake of the race, for the sake of continuation, in terms of justice, selfishness is nothing."

"Yeah." Wu Wang nodded gently, "I have lived long enough, maybe I don't care so much about many things, but I always care about some things and want to do something."

Lin Shan didn't speak, and turned his back to Wu Wang again and looked out the window.

It was like this for a long time, until the red moon was high.

"It's been so long since we last met, don't say these discouraging words, look at me to treat you well." Wu Wang clapped his hands.

In an instant, the environment in the office changed dramatically.

They appeared in a magnificent hall, the dome of the hall was inlaid with dazzling gems, shining brightly.

The huge door of the hall slowly opened, and a group of stunning beauties walked in gracefully, each with a graceful figure and beautiful face.

"Let's start." Wu Wang sat leisurely on the throne made of pure gold. The gorgeous chair shone brightly under the light, looking particularly noble.

Lin Shan sat next to him, and suddenly there were all kinds of fine wines and delicacies on the table in front of him, dazzling and fragrant.

These dishes were colorful and finely carved, as if each one was a work of art.

The beauties began to dance in the center of the hall. Their steps were uniform, their dances were elegant and rhythmic, and every turn and step showed a high level of dance attainments.

Wu Wang smiled and admired, looking at Lin Shan from time to time, as if expecting Lin Shan's reaction.

Lin Shan was silent. He was somewhat unable to appreciate this scene.

Some things have not changed. Wu Wang still likes these luxurious things.

To some extent, Wu Wang and Lao Wang are somewhat similar, but Lao Wang simply likes money, because financial resources are his strength.

Wu Wang, on the other hand, likes the function of money, such as the luxury life it can bring him.

A private banquet lasted for several hours, and the following programs changed more than a dozen times.

Lin Shan stared at the dishes on the table longer than at the beauties below.

"Lin Shan, do you like any? I'll give you one? Don't worry, they will definitely be willing." Wu Wang whispered to Lin Shan.

"No need." Lin Shan waved his hand to refuse without hesitation, "Just find me a place to live, I'll stay here for a while."
