From Prisoner to Si Chen

Gilan parted ways with Maiev and others at the entrance of the Triumph Building. They had different tasks.

Take Maiev, for example. Her mission is to escort a batch of "miasma-repelling medicine" to the military area. She will use transport aircraft to spray the medicine at high altitudes in the capital, using this physical method to reduce the concentration of miasma in the area.

Although the investment is large and the time effect is not long, it can be regarded as an emergency measure.

It is said that Kaya, who was traveling with him, was responsible for transporting another "miasma-repelling explosive" developed by Chairman Pala. By launching it into the air and detonating it, it can also play a certain role in dispelling miasma in a large area.

Several people knew the seriousness of the matter, and without too much chatting, they set off separately to carry out the emergency mission.

The day passed quickly.

Until about eleven o'clock in the evening, the night was dark.

Gillan then drove back to the rental apartment downstairs on Price Street in North Muse.

After he turned off the engine, he sat in the car for a while. Looking at the dark and silent streets, he sighed secretly.

'The situation is not optimistic...'

Ji Lan secretly thought.

With the big boss Pala Celsus in charge of the capital, I believe that the concentration of the miasma can be controlled soon and local order can be maintained.

But the entire Bremen Empire is vast, with more than a dozen states, hundreds of districts, and thousands of towns...

It is very difficult for these areas to control the miasma so quickly and protect the civilians from infringement like the capital Muse City.

It is foreseeable that in the next period of time, or even before long, the order of the entire empire will fall into chaos.

The most likely scenario that Gilan could think of was for the army to uniformly take the "anti-miasma medicine" to violently suppress the chaos in various places.

After that, a large amount of human, financial and material resources will be invested to transport "anti-miasma medicine" to all parts of the country and distributed to the people for free or at low prices, so that this miasma disaster can be effectively resisted...

However, this is only an ideal situation.

There are many unpredictable factors.

For example, hostile forces are very likely to take the opportunity to intervene, further expanding the level of chaos and disrupting the order of the empire.

There are many mysterious forces and lone mystics lurking in the dark, and there is a high probability that they will take advantage of the chaos and increase the variables.

One can imagine the increased pressure this has placed on the empire...

Moreover, we are currently in a tense stage where the three major overlords are confronting each other and causing constant friction. The northern colony of Bosiva has been infiltrated, and the eastern border is still at war with the Owena Federation.

The outbreak of the "miasma disaster" directly aggravated these conditions, making the empire worse.

Gilan rested his elbows on the car window, looking at the deserted street scene, with only the dim light of street lights embellishment in the darkness.

The usual barking and meowing of dogs have disappeared.

Because they were also infected by a high concentration of miasma, they became extremely irritable and irritable. In order to prevent stray cats and dogs from attacking humans, the local police station recruited a group of dog catchers and cat catchers to quickly clean up the animals.

Gilan remembered what Chairman Parra said to him alone when he returned to the Triumph Building after completing the escort mission...

The Chairman of the Generalissimo stated that he had sought instructions from the head of state, Caesar, regarding the sudden outbreak of the miasma.

The head of state only said a few words about this:

"The movement of all things in the world is maintained by the law of twelve seconds. Therefore, from ancient times to the present, natural and man-made disasters have also been caused by this... Before the birth of 'Noon Dawn', there was no such thing as 'miasma' in the world."

Hearing this at that time, Gilan was very confused and asked Chairman Parra face to face:

"What the head of state means...could it be that the so-called 'miasma' was brought by Omer?"

But Paracelsus just shook his head.

"No. To be precise, the miasma only appeared at the same time as Omer, but it does not mean that it was caused by him."

"On the contrary, perhaps it is precisely because the world is filled with miasma that the 'noonday dawn' is born, thus illuminating the entire world."

"In the several secret histories I have, I found a common saying...Omer, He was born in response to a wish."

"As for how it was born and whose wish it was, no one knows..."

…

…

Gilan got out of the car and went upstairs, washed briefly, then lay on the bed and closed his eyes to fall asleep.

He controlled himself into a lucid dream.

As his consciousness continued to sink, he soon came to his own spiritual kingdom.

Under the dark night, Gilan walked through the winding stone road and stepped directly into the open-air stone palace.

Five spiral stone pillars stand in front of the Cross Sword bonfire. Above the stone pillar, five figures were already sitting on their seats.

"Hongxiao."

The four people from the Dream Secret Society greeted him one after another.

Gillan nodded in response.

At the same time, he also noticed that the expressions of the four people were a little solemn.

"Everyone should be aware of the intensification of the miasma, right?"

Jilan jumped up and landed in front of the throne at the top of the "Thumb" stone pillar. He turned around and said to everyone.

"Yeah." Everyone nodded.

"I went south with the steward of the monastery and arrived at Bindu Town. Not long after I arrived here, the miasma broke out... Many townspeople suffered from serious diseases and were waiting to die at home."

Red Bird Aurora said worriedly.

"The first thing I did when I joined the Holy Sisters was to assist the other Holy Sisters in distributing 'Holy Healing Water', but the quantity of Holy Water was limited... In less than a day, more than 20 elderly people had died. and children.”

"Their spirituality is too weak and they cannot withstand the infection of miasma, alas."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions darkened.

Immediately afterwards, the white gull, black snipe and blue stork also shared the situation in their area.

As Gillan expected, it was not optimistic.

We are now in the early stages of the miasma's intensification, with large-scale deaths, illnesses, and madness inevitably occurring, making it difficult to maintain order in various places.

According to Black Sandpiper, he was trekking on foot with the other reserve members of the "Ascetic Sect" who were participating in the assessment, and witnessed several riots along the way.

All in all very confusing.

"I received a mission from the 'White Pigeon Tower'. They asked me to take the opportunity to infiltrate the Longken City Council, eliminate dissidents, and use the various problems caused by the miasma to win over people's hearts..."

Bai Ou sat on the stone seat and spoke in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Cang Stork suggested:

"Well... we can take this opportunity to clean up the scum of your local council. Not only has the task of the 'White Dove Tower' been completed, it is also a good thing."

"Moreover, this is good for your reputation. To a certain extent, it is also good for your future convenience."

"The stork has a point."

Gillan nodded.

"If handled properly, this is a good thing that kills three birds with one stone... If you can climb higher in the imperial officialdom and have greater power, the 'White Dove Tower' will not only value you more, but we can also use you more strength."

"Well, I understand."

Bai Ou thought for a moment and nodded.

After chatting for a while, Gilan announced that the meeting was adjourned.

After the members of the "Hand of Dawn" left, he walked out of the open-air stone palace alone and came to the shore of the Soul Island.

Gillan summoned his "spiritual boat", jumped on board, and chose to set sail without wasting any time.

In reality, due to unknown reasons, the concentration of miasma has intensified. It comes at a troubled time, and it is a scene of approaching storm.

Gilan always has a bad feeling.

Therefore, he has become more eager to improve his strength... If the wheel of the times is destined to run into the quagmire of chaos and danger, then only with strong strength can he not be easily coerced and involved.

He never considered himself a saint and had neither the ability nor the idea to redeem others. Just protect yourself and, if conditions permit, lend a helping hand to those around you.

That's Guillen's goal.

Although he has now climbed to the 3rd level "Glow" of the "Road of Fire Sword", his actual combat power may be comparable to the 4th level.

But he will not be complacent.

Because Jilan knows very well that his strength is still very weak. Not to mention big guys like Para Celsus, even if you pick any official member from "Midnight Rose", he is probably no match...

What's more, there are many ancient esoteric religions and there are many hidden powerful people. The hostile forces are complicated and their methods are inexplicable.

Thinking of this, the sense of urgency in Gilan's heart became stronger.

Wow...

The boat sailed away from the island of the soul.

Gradually moving towards the endless black sea.

After dozens of voyages, Gilan has accumulated considerable experience. When his inner island completely disappeared from sight, he stretched out his hand on the side of the boat and touched the sea water.

After that, every ten minutes or so, check the strength of the negative emotions to correct the direction.

And so on, the cycle repeats.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

After a long voyage, Gilan was once again attacked by a sea monster...

Wow! !

The huge black waves rose high and hit the small boat heavily.

Gilan struggled to control the boat and prevent it from capsizing.

A huge octopus head emerged from the sea, but when he looked closely, he found that it was different from the octopus sea monster he had seen before.

The head of this monster is actually a fish head covered with irregular fish scales. It is just a circle of octopus tentacles surrounding the gills. It looks like the "sun" in a hand-drawn book of occultism.

The tentacles twisted and waved like fireworks at the edge of the sun's outline.

The two round, hollow eyes in the middle looked like human eyes magnified countless times, casting a strange look at Gilan.

Wow! !

A human hand, several times larger than the boat, emerged from the sea, fell headlong, and grabbed Jilan.

The huge human hands were covered with "hair". If you look closely, you can see that there are densely packed sea snakes poking out of their skin!

"roll!!"

Jilan drew out the Staff of Laughter, transformed it into the form of a flower basket cross sword, and ignited the green flames on the sword.

As he drank violently, he entered a "crazy state". The whole person is up to two meters tall, with bulging muscles and red hair dancing wildly.

The secret sword technique was fully deployed, turning into a faint green hexagram in mid-air.

Miso miso miso miso! !

The sword body, burning with flames, intertwined with blurry afterimages on the giant palm, and sparks flew out.

However, even so, it only cut through the fish scales on its surface, and black, sticky blood flowed out.

Jilan took advantage of the moment when his palm was stagnant and used all his strength to push the boat forward, crossing the range covered by the palm at an extremely fast speed.

boom! !

The giant palm fell down and slapped on the sea surface.

With a loud noise, like a bomb exploding, the sea water splashed up into a columnar water curtain more than ten meters high, and fell with a crash.

Gilan raised his sword and laughed wildly amid the violent jolts.

"rush!!"

The four colors of light on the surface of the boat flowed and became more and more dazzling. It was like a swift swordfish, carrying Gilan through the wind and waves, straight around the sea monster, and moving forward without hesitation.

Boom boom boom! !

Continuous loud noises were accompanied by stormy waves.

Jilan looked back and saw a dozen huge human hands emerging from the sea area he had just passed!

These hands, which seemed to be parts of a sea monster, kept waving and stretching, trying to catch Gilan.

But Jilan's current strength was different from before. He was overloaded and drove the spiritual boat to escape as fast as possible.

In just a few minutes, he got rid of the huge and strange sea monster.

After another peaceful voyage.

Ji Lan suddenly looked shocked!

He stood up straight on the boat and looked into the distance.

A vast horizon slowly appeared in sight. And as it continued to get closer, the huge piece of land became higher and higher, like a mountain range magnified countless times.

'found it……'

Ji Lan felt excited and secretly thought.

‘Finally found the land of God “Toyalan”! ’

He took a deep breath to calm down his excitement, and kept urging the spiritual boat to sail forward.

After a while.

The boat arrived at the shore and landed on a golden beach.

Ji Lan suddenly smelled a strong floral fragrance, as if a hundred kinds of flowers were blooming at the same time, mixing into a sweet but not greasy fresh fragrance.

He jumped off the already very dim boat and officially stepped on the beach.

Looking down, Ji Lan couldn't help but be startled.

Only then did he discover that the gravel on the beach turned out to be round and plump salt. The reason for the golden color is due to the light cast by the top of the mountain——

Gilan looked up.

He saw a bright but not dazzling golden sun hanging high above the center of the mountain.

After looking straight at it for a long time, Ji Lan even felt that his soul had been cleansed from the inside out, and he felt indescribably comfortable.

rustle.

rustle……

Gilan stepped on the soft and delicate salt flats and walked deeper into the land.

He found that there were many rocks scattered around the coast. Otherwise, it looks very empty.

A few hundred meters away from the beach, you entered a dense black forest. The trees here are extremely tall, and their trunks, branches, and leaves are all a deep black color, but their veins reveal a blue-purple color.

The green bushes were dotted with many bright red wild fruits, as well as strange flowers that Jilan had never seen before.

Even the caterpillars on the leaves have grown into strange shapes. There are yellow ones, pink ones, two-headed ones, and six-headed ones...

The surrounding environment is quite quiet, but some birds and insects can also be heard.

Not long after landing in the Land of Gods, Ji Lan gradually felt that a dial-shaped ring mark was slowly emerging in his heart.

The position of each scale is an ancient symbol, which gradually becomes clear.

'The brand of Shenxiang is gradually forming...'

Jilan understood and was secretly happy.
