Barrier of Light

"boom--"

Suzaku's pupils contracted.

The fist blast blasted out, directly smashing an alloy gate ten meters away!

The wild dog looked at his arm with a gloomy expression.

In the middle of where the two were standing, a figure suddenly inserted... The speed of this figure's appearance was beyond the expectations of everyone present. At the moment when the wild dog fist wind was about to explode, the person came with a palm He gently pressed his forearm, causing it to move dozens of centimeters to one side.

A slight difference can make a difference of a thousand miles.

This punch naturally failed.

"...Jia Wei."

Dingo retracted his fist.

He looked expressionlessly at the heavily armored man in front of him who was wearing Mingguang armor and was performing a mission outside. This great knight of Guangming City always showed off his armor to others. Many Guangming City believers had gathered in the far base. The Church of Storms and the Light believers met. They have kept a certain distance from each other... Under the control of Nanzhou's "Saint", the two groups of people can still coexist peacefully.

"In my impression, you were not a nosy person before."

Dingo's voice was cold.

Many years ago.

Guangming City and Central City are still allies. As Zhu Xue's right-hand man, he once set off to Xizhou to perform a mission. At that time, he met Jia Wei. In a sense, the two of them were "comrades in arms."

only.

The marriage between the Lin family and the Meng family broke down, and the alliance between Central City and Guangming City was also dissolved...

Suspicion, separation, calculation.

Under the general trend, teammates who once fought side by side have become "strangers".

"It still isn't."

Under the heavy mask of Mingguang Armor, a dull echo came: "I just don't want the two of you to fight... and destroy the Holy City Research Institute base. There is also information and data about the 'Sangzhou Cave'. As you just said Say, if you damage this place, Mr. Zhuxue will be angry."

"..."

Wild Dog glanced at Suzaku indifferently, turned around and left without bothering to talk.

There was a huge difference in height between the two. One looked like a giant beast, while the other looked like a baby bird.

If Jia Wei takes action, it means that this fight will never be fought no matter what.

The Great Knight of Guangming City is the strongest among the "fourth level".

For this mission, the World Conference has finalized some tacit rules. Because it is an extremely rare four continents joint southward support, the title-level powerhouses will not cross the line. This is the requirement of the Holy City.

Once Mr. Tianshui, the elder of the Illuminati, the commander of the legion, and the head of the five families has such a title, he goes south to Sangzhou Cave.

The saints of the Church of Storms will be unable to control the situation.

now.

The research base on the north bank of Sangzhou Cave is unprecedentedly lively. Support teams of extraordinary people from four continents have arrived. The two bishops of the Church of Storms who originally tried to control the scene completely stopped and gave up the idea of ​​dispatching believers.

The Saint did not want to get involved in the mess of the Sangzhou Cave incident.

Therefore, the main force of the church did not move closer to Sangzhou Cave at all.

They...can't afford to offend these top level four from outside Southern Continent.

Everyone from all parties has basically arrived.

Looking at the group of believers wearing bright robes, Wild Dog's eyes were fixed on the young man at the head. He was an unfamiliar face, but his aura was quite powerful.

He looked at Jia Wei and asked, "The Illuminati is really ruthless. Did they elect a new 'Son of Blessing' just after Meng Xiao died?"

"The death of one person cannot stop the progress of a group of people."

Jia Wei's eyes, covered by iron armor, were as quiet as the sea: "So... the blessed sons will always exist. If one dies, another one will stand up."

"In addition," he said leisurely: "Isn't it the same for you? When a general in the legion falls, a successor will take over the flag. When a garrison of the fortress dies, a new garrison will be immediately arranged."

"I thought so too."

A lazy voice floated from the distance of the base.

All the suspended source energy boat main boats landed, and the hatch of the last main boat opened. The extraordinary elites of the Survey Corps also came to the base.

Among them, a figure sitting cross-legged floated down.

He propped up his elbows and looked at the great knight of the City of Light.

"A long time ago, I felt that the City of Light was majestic and great, and the Sons of Blessing were brave and just. This world cannot lack the 'Children of Blessing', just as it cannot lack the generals of legions and the garrison of the fortress."

Lu Zhe said quietly: "Later I discovered that Beizhou and Guangming City are still very different... If there are no generals and garrison, the legions and fortresses will fall, and the world will become chaotic. But if there is no 'blessing' Son', this world should become a lot more peaceful, at least there won't be so much chaos in the Battle of Dolu River."

The Duoluhe mission... became so complicated because of Meng Xiao!

The elites of Beizhou were seriously injured, and several energy boats were damaged!

The "Zhenyue Grand Duke" died in the Duolu River and was abolished by Her Majesty the Queen. The entire "Zhenyue Meng Family" was completely expelled from the interior of Beizhou. This was the biggest news in the border fortress last year. Many people celebrated all night long. !

Meng Xiao is dead, so happy!

But Guangming City doesn’t think so...

Lu Zhe's words fell to the ground.

The Guangming City believers led by the new blessing became restless.

Jia Wei's expression didn't change much.

He gently raised his hand to signal silence. The believers quickly calmed down, but each one of them still glared at Lu Zhe and the Survey Corps soldiers in Beizhou.

"Everyone, what is past is past."

Jia Wei said softly: "Since we went south together for 'rescue', we can be considered teammates now. Why bother revisiting the past?"

…

…

Extraordinary beings from all continents began to gradually enter the interior of Sangzhou Cave.

On the other side, Gu Shen and his party also arrived at their destination.

Under the leadership of Vyas.

They crossed the jungle on the outer ring of Tan Yao volcano and headed towards the South Cave... The entire Sangzhou Cave island is not big, but the concentration of extraordinary source matter is so high that normal people's sense of direction often produces errors. In fact, the "ghost hitting the wall" mentioned in the common proverb is the most common kind of supernatural vision, but if there is a spiritual supernatural being as a "guide", then this situation will not happen.

"The main system controls the entire island."

Chu Ling said: "It seems to be very fond of the 'Sangzhou Cave' and forced to retain part of the data. Even after the World Conference ended, the map permissions were not disclosed in the deep water area..."

The map of Sangzhou Cave is actually not a secret.

The vast majority of extraordinary beings would never come to such a remote place.

It's just that the main system is not open to the public, so others cannot view it...

"We are 'enforcers', don't we all deserve to have maps?" Gu Shen frowned.

"The explanation given by the main system is: there is a data failure and it is still being repaired for the time being." Chu Ling said: "No matter what the main system considers, there is no problem with this reason. The map collection of Sangzhou Cave is not on the task list of the awakening experiment. Among them, if the data is wrong, then the wrong map will be misleading...We need to collect the maps ourselves."

Fortunately, Blazing Fire has the top level of "map opening ability".

Gu Shen left flames all the way.

The blazing fire cleared away the forest miasma and continued to expand toward the outer edge... It will take some time to collect maps of the dense forest in the outer ring.

But there's no need to rush.

The Sangzhou Cave mission is obviously a "station-type mission" with a long time span.

Along the way.

Gu Shen didn't sense many powerful extraordinary beings, which was somewhat beyond his expectation.

After seeing the "Queen's Birdwing Butterfly", he originally thought that in the dense forest outside Sangzhou Cave, ferocious beasts were rampant, and there might be a large number of high-density extraordinary beings stationed there. Unexpectedly, he did not encounter any of them along the way. resistance.

Of course, the reason why they didn't encounter it may be that the configuration of Gu Shen's team is too high.

Gu Shen's [Blazing Fire] and Baixiu's [Thunder World Walker] only need to show some aura to intimidate low-level creatures——

In nature, the weak eat the strong.

These creatures who have awakened extraordinary qualities but do not have much wisdom dare not approach Gu Shen's "fire" and Bai Xiu's "thunder" rashly.

"Mr. Xiao Gu, we're almost there!"

The false sky above Sangzhou Grottoes shows the alternation of sun and moon, and it is "twilight" at this moment.

Vyas's expression became a little nervous, but more importantly, he was excited... He had not been back for three years, and he didn't know what his homeland had become. When the Awakening Act was promulgated, he felt anxious and hopeful at the same time.

Many churches evacuated Sangzhou Cave.

【Deep Sea】gives awakening.

Maybe... this "abandoned place" can be rejuvenated?

The night is getting dark, the forest is silent, and a clear long howl can be heard vaguely in the distance.

Gu Shen lit the fire.

The group of people walked out of the dense forest and stopped in the open wilderness. It was not so much a wilderness as a piece of bloody mud... There had been no rainfall in Sangzhou Cave for a long time, and many corpses were half-covered in this desolate wilderness. It was blown by the hot wind, exuding bursts of rotten smells, not only from humans, but also from various supernatural beings, wolves, lions, and leopards.

These corpses have long since rotted and have been half-buried here for who knows how long.

Vyas was stunned.

He stared blankly in front of him. A few hundred meters away from the bloody mud was his "homeland" before he left. The Church of Storms once named it the S3 living area. The pillars in the living area collapsed, and the buildings on both sides were also dilapidated. Further away, In the night, an iron wall of a dark forest could be vaguely seen standing upright.

"The Awakening Act doesn't seem to have brought Sangzhou Cave back to life..."

Gu Shen walked forward expressionlessly.

His blazing fire lights up the night and burns these uncared carcasses, the fire burns.

He stepped into the S3 living area. There were no living people here. Some buildings collapsed, some were still intact, and there were some "corpses" inside... Now it was inconvenient for him to use the power of Pluto, and he could not extract his spirit.

But a simple "profile" can reveal the past experienced here from the traces of destruction in the S3 living area...

The supernaturally awakened beast launched an attack on the gathering place of humans.

The S3 living area fell directly.

Baixiu, Shen Li, and Adam walked forward in silence... The scene in this living area was too bloody, with countless corpses lying around. They must have experienced a very horrific attack back then.

"I have a question."

Gu Shen asked softly: "Are these dead people considered samples of the 'Transcendent Link'?"

Adam was startled.

Immediately he understood what Gu Shen meant.

"It should be...it doesn't count."

He said silently: "These people are all dead after all. If they did not die from the spiritual link of the [Deep Sea], they would not be counted as losers in awakening."

"...Okay, I understand." Gu Shen nodded.

Shen Li listened on the side, and suddenly his heart tightened: "Wait a minute, Gu Shen, do you mean..."

"If Sangzhou Cave was inland, more than one S3 living area would have been massacred."

Adam said in a hoarse voice: "Then this is actually a 'good thing' for the 'awakening experiment'. Because these people die, the 'success rate' of the awakening experiment will be greatly improved, at least according to the superficial data. "

[Deep Sea] will not give false data.

But [Deep Sea] will choose the best algorithm——

"Look further ahead...it seems like a 'high wall' has been built there."

Gu Shen couldn't bear to look at Vyas's numb and bewildered face. He raised his head and sighed softly: "If you guessed correctly, that 'high wall' should have been built by the survivors."

A high wall is built at the end of the S3 living area.

90% of the living area has been abandoned.

On this high wall, there is also a retro [lantern] hanging, with the "fire of the essence" lit inside, and you can feel the fluctuations of the spiritual atmosphere...

"Obviously there's a watch on the other side of the wall."

Gu Shen signaled Adam and Vyas to stop.

Alone, he slowly walked forward.

This high wall is used to resist extraordinary creatures... As long as you reveal your identity, you should not be attacked. However, the awakening experiment has been going on for three years. If these people build a high wall, they will be completely sealed off.

There's no telling what will happen.

"boom!"

On top of the high wall, in the long night, there was a light fire.

A bullet, shot at Gu Shen!

Gu Shen's figure was blurry.

The bullet penetrated his position, hit the ground, splashed an arc of light, and dissipated immediately.

Gu Shen turned around.

Although this bullet is only made of red and silver, even if it hits him, it will not be able to damage his iron-scaled skin.

But he still felt some relief.

Along the way, the backwardness and primitiveness of Sangzhou Cave... was really shocking.

Fortunately, they still have "guns"!

Although the "complete closure" of the awakening experiment resulted in the abandonment of the S3 living area, the technological level brought by the Nanzhou Church was still maintained within this high wall.

This means that at least they will not be massacred too badly.

Before the emergence of high-level transcendent beings.

Strong logic bullets are more effective. Take the previous "Queen's Bird's Wing Butterfly" as an example. Although he and Bai Xiu only used tens of minutes to kill all the "Queen's Bird's Wing Butterfly" underground in Area F. All.

But if this thing hadn't migrated, the damage it would have caused inland would have been absolutely terrifying.

If you encounter the "Queen's Birdwing Butterfly" in the S3 living area, the tragic scene today will be even more shocking.

But if there are enough extraordinary people, even if they are not high-level, they have strong logical weapons. As long as they shoot accurately enough and have enough bullets, red and silver are enough to fight the crisis.

The awakening of a transcendent, even at the lowest level, will increase physical strength, reaction speed, and movement speed.

With these basic strengths.

Plus weapons.

So in the past three years, the survivors in the high wall should not have suffered too many casualties.

Gu Shen stopped slowly, raised his hands, and said in a deep voice: "...Don't shoot, we are one of our own."

I wonder if this sentence works?

While speaking, Gu Shen lit the fire between his brows and looked at the high wall.

"..."

Above the high wall, there was darkness, only the black muzzle of the gun.

Although there was only one gunshot.

But in fact, more than one gun was pointed at him.

Not long after.

A rough response echoed from the high walls.

"Who the hell is your friend? If you take another step... you'll get shot!!"
