Barrier of Light

"Why is that you?"

"Because you solved the mental poison in Gubao."

The Queen said leisurely: "There should be no problem with this answer... Zhongyuan has informed Central City of what he saw and heard in Gubao. Since you can solve the spiritual toxins in Gubao, you may also have a chance to uproot Doluhe's poison from the source. 'River Poison'."

Gu Shen smiled.

He shook his head and said solemnly: "No... Dear Her Majesty the Queen, you should also know that these two mental toxins are not on the same level at all."

The poison of the Dolu River is a big killer that consumes a considerable part of the divine throne's spiritual power!

Gubao's mental toxins are, at best, Golden Spike Flower's "casual spellcasting", and there is no comparison between the two.

He didn't believe it was for this reason.

After thinking about it... Gu Shen couldn't understand the Queen's true intention in assigning him.

The Queen sighed softly.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Gu Shen seemed to hear a faint sigh coming from Feng Xue.

"It's really hard to fool..."

Gu Shen: "???"

It was not an illusion. The Queen had no intention of covering up her voice. She looked helplessly at Gu Shen and asked, "Do you really want to know the reason?"

Gu Shen was silent for a moment and nodded slowly.

"Since you want to know, then I will tell you..." Then the Queen said calmly: "The thoughts in your heart are all correct. With the strength you have shown so far, you are completely unworthy of my personal invitation, let alone you are now If you have reached the third level of strength, even if you surpass the fourth level title, the top one, I will not personally invite you."

Hearing this... Gu Shen felt inexplicably relieved.

That's how it should be.

What is the identity of the Queen? He doesn't deserve it!

The more they get along like this, the more Gu Shen feels in his heart that the existence of "Pluto's Fire" has not been seen through yet and that he is safe.

The frost and snow lingering in the center of the furnace suddenly changed.

Those wind and snow turned into meteors, rotating around the throne, seemingly following some strange ritual... Looking closely, they were not meteors, but ancient characters that were extremely square.

Gu Shen's expression became serious.

"Inviting you to Beizhou and performing the maze mission are all the results of 'divination'." The Queen said slowly: "You are Qianye's disciple, and you also know that divination exists. And I can also perform similar divination techniques. The art of foresight...This time to restart the task of Dolu River, my hexagram direction falls on you, so I hope you can go to the disaster area and carry out the task."

I see.

The Queen is following her divination guidance.

Gu Shen was completely relieved: "So you don't really expect me to remove the poison from Dolu River...right?"

"certainly."

The Queen smiled: "With the power of that river, how could you possibly pull it out?"

Gu Shen also smiled: "That's good, that's good."

If it was really the legacy of the previous Pluto, he would have collected the river poison no matter what!

"Thank you for the invitation, Your Majesty. I may want to consider it."

After a moment, Gu Shen coughed lightly and said sincerely: "I don't mean to disrespect you, Your Majesty... It's just that I have to gain something from such a highly dangerous mission."

The Queen narrowed her eyes.

She had been observing Gu Shen for a long time, how could she not know this young man's character.

The authority of the highest seat can mobilize all the files of this S-class in the deep sea database!

When Gu Shen entered Dadu and then went to Nagano, the Queen read through every step he took... This was not an "honest" guy. When he first entered Nagano, he slipped through all the five families!

Is this the divine power that has adapted to the furnace and is now starting to bargain?

"What do you want to gain?"

The Queen doesn't beat around the bush and goes straight to the point.

"I want... protection, a safe guarantee."

Gu Shen raised a finger and said seriously: "Since your divination guidance falls on me... then with my participation in this mission, the probability of finding the [Gate] will be greatly improved. But no matter what, Duoluhe These are extremely dangerous disaster situations, so I hope to be safe."

He has "the protection of the goddess of destiny" on him.

There is also a "devil" waiting for him in the ruler who can make transactions as long as he pays a price.

This is double insurance.

Even so... Gu Shen was still cautious, and he always remembered what Chu Ling said to him.

Live!

In the extraordinary world, survival is the most important thing.

The reason why Gu Shen made this request was because he knew that the Queen of Beizhou controlled the entire Dolu River Disaster... Her mental power was not something that could be consumed casually. If she could detoxify the people of the two legions, she would definitely be able to Let the power seep in!

After hearing the words, the Queen was thoughtful.

She turned her palms, and the wind and snow condensed into the scene of the Dolu River disaster: "I will watch you, is this a guarantee of safety?"

"I need your promise, Your Majesty."

Gu Shen stared at those eyes in the snow.

Anyway, whatever secrets he might have had been seen through, and he wasn't afraid to look at them.

The cross pendant he had been holding tightly suddenly reacted, and indescribable guidance emerged in Gu Shen's heart. He followed the prompts given by the pendant and said slowly: "I believe you have the ability to predict the future, so I I want to hear your personal assurance of my safety.”

"good."

The Queen promised cleanly and calmly, and said calmly: "I promise that if you encounter a desperate situation in the Dolu River disaster area, I will come forward to save you at the critical moment... Are you satisfied with this promise?"

The cross pendant slowly subsided.

This "old thing" is really working...

Judging from the reaction, it should be satisfied.

Gu Shen also nodded and expressed his attitude.

There is no problem with this promise. Although he wears the golden hoop of fighting, he really encounters a desperate situation. Bai Shu is stationed in Nagano Castle. No matter how fast he is, he cannot reach it immediately.

But the Queen is different.

If your guess is correct, although the spiritual power in the Queen's Furnace God's Domain is concentrated on the second floor of the castle, in fact, it is sent to all parts of Beizhou with the large copper furnace underground... At this moment, the wind and snow are gathering The Dolu River disaster is basically under her control!

"And one more thing."

Gu Shen said seriously: "Am I the only one on this mission?"

That’s really a bit permeating.

"The task of restarting the Dolu River is not just yours." The Queen shook her head and said: "In addition to looking for the [Gate], we also need to explore the materials in the disaster area and the remaining source of matter... I will send the Survey Corps and the Third Corps The elite, but this time the restart mission, the number of people will be very small, because I have to carry out the second removal of the 'river poison', there are too many people, and a lot of mental energy will be consumed."

Gu Shen nodded...

If we enter again on a large scale, it will take a lot of energy to remove the poison from the river.

"The initial scale is limited to one hundred people. This meeting held by Zhuxue is also planned around the combat mission of 'restarting the Dolu River'... All the generals will gather together, and the Central City will select the best elites. , the team conducts exploration. The Dolu River disaster area is very large, with more than a dozen different branches. The exploration mission will last about two weeks. This time is enough to find out the corners of the disaster area that were not clear before. "

The Queen said slowly: "You are not fighting alone. In addition to the assistance provided by the legion, you also have exclusive authority. In this operation, you have the right to act independently without command. If you insist on leaving the disaster situation, No one will stop you...but in that case, you won't be able to get the reward you want."

A very sincere offer.

Gu Shen listened carefully, and suddenly a word struck his heartstrings: "...remuneration?"

He coughed slightly again.

Why did we suddenly talk about remuneration...

Before I had time to talk about this, the Queen took the initiative to bring it up, how embarrassing it was!

But since we have already talked about it, if I don't continue talking, I will be disrespectful to the other party.

Gu Shen asked harmlessly: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask what my reward is..."

"It's not a common thing, it's not a sealed thing, it's not a mithril... you already have those."

The Queen sat on the throne surrounded by ice and snow, raised her hand to support her chin, the corners of her lips seemed to be curved, and she said with a meaningful smile: "Although you will encounter terrible dangers when going to the Dolu River, but After completing this mission, you will naturally get what you want, which is a generous and satisfying reward."

This posture has a hint of sleepiness.

Finish this sentence.

The Queen waved her hand.

The wind and snow howled, and the temperature outside the furnace suddenly dropped... The room on the second floor suddenly felt like an ice cellar. Gu Shen's robe was stained with a lot of flying snow. If he stayed there for a few more seconds, he might be frozen into an ice sculpture.

He hurriedly walked out, not forgetting to look back before opening the door.

The queen sitting upright looks like an ice sculpture.

I can't imagine how freezing it must be at the core of the furnace.

The moment you push the door open.

The majestic source of energy ignited in the corridor, and the blazing flames instantly burned away the snow flakes on Gu Shen's body, destroying all traces of his stay in the world of ice and snow...

The legion commander, whose body was burning with fire, closed the door for Gu Shen again and asked calmly: "How do you feel?"

"A bit cold, but also a bit hot." Gu Shen smiled. His mind was not on the burning of the furnace at all. He followed the legion commander and left the Queen's location. He silently thought about the last conversation on the second floor.

"..."

If it were anyone else who offered such a reward, Gu Shen would not pay much attention at all, and it would be a classic pie-in-the-sky gesture.

But the person who spoke was the Queen.

She is the queen who created the "Foresight Technique"!

Thinking of the figure on the throne, Gu Shen felt slightly guilty.

He felt that many things about him had been seen through by the Queen... Perhaps only the identity of Pluto was left, which had not yet been revealed.

for example.

In the entire Nagano, there are five major schools and three major offices. Everyone thinks that they have "divination skills".

But from the Queen's words, Gu Shen clearly felt that she knew that she was only aware of the existence of "divination", but not the real owner of "divination".

It was precisely because he was seen through that Gu Shen was shocked and trusted the Queen's ability.

So... the "good reward" she said was because she saw with her own eyes the scene after she completed the task of restarting the Doru River disaster?
