Barrier of Light

In the empty room, Gu Shen rubbed the cross pendant with his fingers.

Although he has the protection of the Goddess of Destiny, it does not mean that he is absolutely safe...

Judging from what happened to Hong Zhong, this pendant will give "hints" most of the time, and at certain moments, it will help the host take "compulsory" actions.

The moment Hongzhong stepped into the "Golden Floss Dreamland".

Physical death is unavoidable.

For Gu Shen, this pendant is an important object to welcome the backlash of "ominous" and "foot of truth" in the future... Only God can fight against God, and similarly, only God's Sealed Artifact can compete with God's Sealed Artifact .

This protective sealed object should be able to compete with the backlash of the Rule of Truth, right?

Think for a moment.

Gu Shen used breathing techniques to calm down his emotions.

There was a knock on the door.

Gu Shen withdrew the control of Blazing Fire, stood up and opened the door. It was his comrades from the Explorer Team. The storm resistance battle at Gubao Fortress was won, and the mental toxins were released... Naturally, the quarantine zone no longer had any meaning.

The members of the Explorer team took a short rest and were surprised to learn the big news.

The first thing they did was come to visit Gu Shen.

"Good boy."

Mo Hongyi was the first to enter and said with a big smile: "Then who is right? You are really the great hero of Dongzhou... Thanks to you, our team can return from the maze safely."

Gu Shen smiled.

On the way back, after asking for everyone's opinions...he used hypnosis on all the members.

After the escape.

Gu Shen then erased the memory after hypnosis...

Yuan Yuan and the others' minds were blank, and they must have been very curious about the details of their return journey. However, after reading the case file, they would definitely believe that the reason for their safe return was because they had touched the [Gate].

As for how to find the [Door], this is Gu Shen's privacy.

"Don't scare people." Yuan Yuan slapped Mo Hongyi's big hand on Gu Shen's shoulder and said seriously: "We have already read the case files that came back... Thank you very much this time."

Finished.

A dozen men all bowed.

This sudden appearance... Gu Shen was almost startled.

"I heard that this is the etiquette of Dongzhou." Su He glanced at Zhang Ning, who was born in Dongzhou. The latter smiled awkwardly, scratched his head and added in a low voice: "Brother Gu is from Jiangnan. People in Tundra say that Jiangnan is It looks like this.”

Gu Shen was speechless.

Jiangbei is grand and Jiangnan is elegant. The folk customs of the two are indeed very different.

Su He interrupted Zhang Ning and said calmly: "It doesn't matter anymore. Just do as the Romans do. We Beizhou people don't have that particular and polite way of expressing gratitude."

"Bang..."

He raised his hand and shook the half bottle of vodka in his palm.

The crisp ice cubes collide with the bottle.

Gu Shen vaguely saw...a truck parked outside the door, with the trunk full of wine.

"Someone, unload the goods!"

…

…

Two hours later.

The strong man in Beizhou was a little dizzy.

They looked at this young man from Dongzhou in bewilderment.

Gu Shen was surrounded by a mountain of wine and looked in high spirits.

He has already beaten down his opponents.

Now there are only three or four people left in the finals.

"Fuck..."

Mo Hongyi rubbed his head heavily, doubting life: "Vice Captain, are all Dongzhou people so good at drinking?!"

Su He, who drank the most, remained silent and glanced at Zhang Ning, who was sleeping beside him drunkenly.

Another Dongzhou man had fallen down long ago.

"Gu, aren't you using your 'ability' to cheat?" Mo Hongyi didn't believe it anymore and rolled up his sleeves, "Grandma, I will fight you to the end today!"

Gu Shen smiled helplessly.

He didn't use "Blazing Fire".

Alcohol... can anesthetize the spirit of normal people.

But if the extraordinary person uses the "breathing method", he can disintegrate it.

The special wine made by the Beizhou military seems to have strange power and can make even extraordinary people drunk. However, this wine is far inferior to the sobering up of a lion, let alone making oneself drunk.

When Gu Shen drank it, it was probably a drink that tasted better than water.

All wine in this world is like this.

For a "special existence" like me that is integrated with the fire of Pluto, there seems to be nothing in this world that can numb me... Maybe this is a lucky thing. God deprived me of the opportunity to live in a dream and die, and gave me an eternally awake soul.

Perhaps, this is another small regret.

No matter how much you drink, you will only be tipsy.

Gu Shen will never be able to experience being "drunk", let alone "fainting".

Another hour.

Mo Hongyi groaned and had a splitting headache, "Captain... I can't stand it anymore, vomit..."

Su He calmly stretched out a hand and blocked the guy's mouth.

And he used his "power" to expand the domain, and the next moment he threw Mo Hongyi outside the house... The person who had previously made harsh words and fought bloody battles lay at the door and vomited wildly, and then completely disappeared.

The last ones to drink were the two captain-level figures.

really……

In Beizhou, strength and alcohol consumption are also vaguely related.

Yuan Yuan's drinking speed is not fast, but the best is his stability, one drink after another, without any fluctuations or ups and downs. After being promoted to a fourth-level transcendent, this guy's "field" has been formed, and his breathing method has long been engraved in his bones.

No active operation required.

Every breath in and out naturally activates the mental power to relieve the negative reactions of the body.

This guy...is quite a bit cheating.

On the other side, Su He, who was just one step away from the "fourth level", also had the same breathing method as the captain.

Drink like water.

If you drink like this...it's hard to tell the winner.

Gu Shen thought carefully and whispered: "You two... I have some good stuff here, Dongzhou's special mass-produced wine..."

Su He shook his head after hearing this and said quickly: "Dongzhou's wine? I've tasted it, and it tastes like water."

Yuan Yuan smiled and said: "Brother Gu, with all due respect, it's just about other things. The wine you have there is really not as good as Beizhou..."

indeed.

When it comes to drinking, Beizhou people have the right to look down on all other continents.

However, this time Gu Shen's "Lion Sobering Up" was not that simple.

Seeing these two people reacting like this, Gu Shen couldn't help but laugh.

He warmly invited: "Why don't you two give it a try?"

…

…

Lin Lin frowned as he pushed the door open.

Gu Shen's attic door was unlocked.

A strong smell of alcohol hit him.

Military discipline is strict inside the fort... At this moment, the only people who can drink in the fort are members of the "Survey Corps".

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the house, he saw wine bottles all over the floor. The members of the Maze Mission Explorer team were lying in a staggered state and unconscious. All these guys who had a good drink capacity were knocked down and were in various postures at the moment. , the scene was really exciting, because even Yuan Yuan and Su He from the elite team of the second team were drunk!

This is the "Third Level Peak" and "Fourth Level" powerhouse!

You should be immune to alcohol!

Seeing this scene, Lin Lin's originally tense and stern expression became subtle.

Because there is still one person who is awake.

And not just normal sobriety.

Gu Shen sat cross-legged on the bed to meditate. After the battle in the wine shop, he began to practice. During this period, he continued to use his mental power to summon blazing fire and hit the golden hoop.

At this moment, Gu Shen slowly opened his eyes.

His voice was extremely calm: "You are finally here."

"These guys are all drunk. Didn't they take you with them when they drank?" Lin Lin felt a little incredible.

"Is there a possibility...that I drank them all down?" Gu Shen gave an even more incredible answer.

"Impossible." Lin Lin frowned, "How could a fourth-level expert drink it down?"

"Would you like some too?" Gu Shen smiled and took out a black bottle, "Have you been a little stressed lately?"

"..."

Lin Lin was silent.

In fact, when he walked into the house, he probably guessed the truth, but he really didn't want to believe it.

What kind of evil path is this kid taking?

If Yuan Yuan and Su He can be brought down, then the black bottle contains poison, right?

"No need." Lin Lin got to the point: "I'm here to send you an 'invitation letter'."

The conferment of the Central City title will arrive in Gubao soon.

However, this speed was still faster than Gu Shen imagined.

Gu Shen accepted the invitation calmly.

Now he is no longer the immature boy in Dongzhou who would be delighted for a long time when receiving a ball invitation. He knows that this invitation letter from the Queen is just an ordinary page of paper. The moment he writes it, it means "grant" The invitation has been sent out.

Just go ahead yourself.

Laurel crowns and flowers will be presented.

"Also, there is one thing..."

Lin Lin paused after sending the invitation letter.

He hasn't spoken yet.

Gu Shen smiled and said, "You also want to advise me not to go?"

Lin Lin was stunned.

"Zhong Yuan has already told me that some important people named Meng can't stand me. Going to Central City will inevitably lead to a lot of trouble." Gu Shen said calmly: "But I don't want to deliberately avoid anyone."

"A big shot named Meng?" Lin Lin frowned slightly.

Obviously, he didn't know about this.

This reaction was somewhat beyond Gu Shen's expectations. Lin Lin didn't seem to want to persuade him to go back home.

"I wanted to say before that you might as well come with me, so that you can have someone to take care of you when you get to Central City."

Lin Lin lit a cigarette and said softly: "I have no impression of the big shot named Meng... It must be your first time coming to Beizhou. How could you offend the so-called big shot?"

Gu Shen smiled bitterly.

He shrugged. He was also in the dark about this matter.

"Okay..." Lin Lin turned his head and blew out a long wisp of smoke: "Zhong Yuan works in the Survey Corps, and they have good intelligence there. They know about any disturbances in the interior earlier than the fortress. It cannot be ruled out that this information is Really, but no matter whether his warning is groundless or not...as long as you set off with me, you will be absolutely safe on the way to Central City."

"So arrogant?" Gu Shen sighed: "Is Central City owned by your family?"

Lin Lin smiled and didn't say anything. He just extended the invitation again: "So...are you going to set off with me?"

Gu Shen hugged his thighs tightly and said, "Of course."

…

…

The surname Lin is very special.

When Gu Shen asked that sentence, he was in a daze for a second.

Because the owner of Central City is really named Lin.

A very stupid idea popped into his mind, but he was quickly rejected by himself... The Queen is the youngest existence among the gods. Even if she gave birth to a child in secret, she is still babbling at most. His age is probably not as long as Lin Lin's years stationed in Gubao.

The Lin family is too big.

The truly powerful "royal family" all live in Central City.

For example, the Grand Duke of Zhuxue, Lin Silk, and the Grand Duke of Forging Yang, Lin Yu, are all members of the royal family who have a close blood relationship with the Queen... And Lin Lin, the young brigadier who is stationed at the forefront and the most dangerous fortress, does not look like a Like an important person related to the Queen.

However, his relationship with Zhuxue seems to be very close. Is it possible that he is a junior that Lin Cang likes?

Gu Shen kept guessing, but could not guess the real reason why this guy's tone was so arrogant... In the end, it could only be attributed to the urging of the Tengu.

Lin Lin had made great achievements in the Gubao Fortress, and when he left for Central City this time, he obviously wanted to receive a reward.

No one dared to touch him.

The following days were very simple. Lin Lin stayed in the fortress for three days, while Gu Shen practiced and waited.

After the guys from the Survey Corps got drunk, they all grinned with joy when they heard the news about the "conferring" from Central City.

Especially when they heard that a "First Class Medal" might be awarded, these rough guys slapped each other in the face to confirm that they were really awake and not dreaming... The First Class Medal was the honor that every extraordinary person in the Survey Corps dreamed of.

They did not stay and left the Fort immediately, and warmly invited Gu Shen to join the Legion airship.

Gu Shen politely declined their kindness.

On the one hand, it was because he had a vague feeling that the "big man named Meng" who Zhong Yuan said disliked him very much was real. Perhaps because of the pendant, Gu Shen had already felt the "guidance" and took Yuan Yuan's airship. , it is very likely to cause unnecessary trouble.

On the other hand, the Survey Corps' airship was not as safe as Lin Lin's.

Despite his bluffing surname, this guy also has extremely strong strength and a strong military background.

Three days later.

The day came when Lin Lin left Gubao.

Gu Shen came to the airship and found that a lot of things were packed on the airship... This surprised Gu Shen. He originally thought that Lin Lin stayed in the Fort for three days to stabilize the morale of the army after the disaster and ensure the normal operation of the Fort.

But judging from the scene of packing a bunch of luggage at this moment, and the look on Zou Hai's face of farewell, is this going to be gone forever?

Gu Shen poked the tall man: "Adjutant Zou, what's going on?"

"What's going on?"

As soon as Gu Shen opened his mouth, Lin Lin came from behind.

After he saw the pile of packed luggage, his expression suddenly became ugly, and he asked gloomily: "Zou, who told you to pack your luggage?"

"Sir... I have heard all about it..." Zou Hai said aggrievedly: "Grand Duke Zhuxue..."

"Stop it and don't mention him."

Lin Lin waved his hands irritably and said: "I don't like these things. Move them all back. I just want to go to Central City and see the scenery. Don't make it look like you are about to die! Be careful when I come back in two days. I will beat you up." you!"
