Him and their stars

Yu Lian just looked at the other party calmly, facing the invisible attack on his spirit. His spiritual sense has already felt a sharp sense of oppression, and the vision in front of him seems to be blurred. It is the hallucination that is about to dominate his five senses.

The next moment, Yu Lian vaguely saw that he seemed to appear in a huge steel fortress. It is an artificial wonder built entirely with mechanical structures, suspended in the infinite starry sky.

Of course, Yu Lian, who is here, cannot capture the entirety of this artificial space building with his own eyes. The steel field has reached the limit of his sight, and he can only see the mottled starry sky on the horizon. At the end of the starry sky, one could vaguely see even more brilliant nebulae. The brilliant colors intertwined to form dazzling spots, covering half of the starry sky.

This is all the information Yu Lian can grasp visually. However, he was certain that that magnificent nebula was the abyss nebula that was the most difficult to break through in the civilized world. On the other side of the Abyss Nebula is the core of the Milky Way galaxy.

As for where he is, it should be the Galactic Empire's No. 11 Sky Fortress, one of the four huge planetary fortresses used to guard the empire's galactic border, and the largest one? Yes, this giant space city known as the "Phoenix Fortress" was built forty years ago. His designer and chief engineer was Octay Etevaru, the grandfather of the current Viscount Shamaine. It was from that generation that Etevaru, who was just a citizen family, received a hereditary title and became a member of the empire's ruling class.

That fortress, for this generation of Viscount Shameen, Ymir Atevaru, must be the place where dreams begin.

So, is this Viscount Shameen’s spiritual realm and his battle soul chessboard? Although it has not yet been fully formed, there is already a scene. Compared with Duke Sadolan's vast gray grassland full of murderous intentions, it is a bit less harsh, but a bit more majestic. This probably reflects his mental state to some extent.

Oh, can you master the "War Soul Chessboard" with just four rings? These are not geniuses, who is? No wonder he was able to achieve greater success than Duke Sadolan in the future. In Yu Lian's previous life, when he last heard the news from Shameen (who was already a Duke at that time), he had already entered the deadlock and was preparing to buy into the realm of the True God. At that time, almost no one, whether it was the empire, the alliance or the big bosses of the Void Spirit Temple, thought that there was a possibility of his failure.

However, I don’t know what function the empire’s future Martial God of the Kingdom has with his “spiritual war chessboard” that still seems a little immature. While Yu Lian was still thinking about this problem, the sky beneath his feet once again turned sideways. The boundless starry sky and the steel fortress immediately disappeared into nothing. Even the shadows seemed to be swallowed up by the black fire, which was burning like a black hole swallowing the universe. Expanded greatly.

...No, it’s not the Battle Spirit chessboard! But the soul-killing without thought!

Shameen's level of genius is more exaggerated than imagined. The battle soul chessboard just now was the pressure of his realm and ability, and now the Wuxiang Soul Kill that was suddenly transformed into is the real killing move.

However, even in this situation, Yu Lian was still not nervous at all, and even had the time to comment.

It is indeed an amazing method. Just because you can master such an ability, it is estimated that the other three Four Heavenly Kings combined cannot defeat you. Gritting his teeth and risking his life, it is even possible to kill the enemy across two rings. However, there is still a little gap between the conversion of abilities, and if you really meet a master in the spiritual field, someone might find a flaw.

Besides, do you want to tell me that you didn’t actually lose? Yu Lian thought. At this time, in the boundless black fire, he could even see invisible military forces gathering in front of a place that was out of sight. He raised his sword and gun high and was about to launch a massive attack on his spiritual realm. charge.

However, he didn't even bother to deploy his mental shield, and he even wanted to laugh.

Battle spirit chessboard? Kill without thinking? The military strength of heroic spirits? Well, it is indeed already 30% to 40% as hot as Duke Sadolan! Even if it were me, if I accidentally resisted, I would definitely overturn, right?

However, I don't believe you really dare to do it here!

Plus, you've already lost! In the God of War Festival, you don’t dare to confront me head-on, so what’s the point of showing your teeth and claws here? In essence, isn't it just the barking of a defeated dog?

Do you want me to play a game with you here? At war in your mind? Pay homage to your fallen comrades? Who gave you face?

So, Yu Lian laughed calmly, and by the way, he made two "woof" sounds in his heart.

That's what you should call it. Yu Lian expressed this meaning with his own spirit.

In the next moment, both the black fire that devoured the starry sky and the mighty army of heroic spirits disappeared within Yu Lian's mental vision. The vision in front of him shifted from the spiritual level to the physical level again, and he was still in the exhibition hall where the press conference was being held, facing Viscount Shameen's eyes.

In physical time, less than one second passed.

"You really don't even do any defense?" Although he didn't speak, he seemed to convey this meaning with his eyes.

"The black fire just now, haha, is full of anxiety and uneasiness. If we fight seriously, you will definitely lose! If you want to regain your position, you must first fast for three days, burn incense, bathe and change clothes, and then come back!" Yu Lian also conveyed this with his eyes. mean.

The leader of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Astral Knights (younger generation) sighed silently and glanced meaningfully at Yu Lian, with a hint of sadness and dejection in his eyes.

This was the second time that he had retreated without a fight in front of Yu Lian, but the blow to him was even worse than the first time.

"In terms of measurement, I did lose."

However, only a second later, he showed a relieved smile again, his eyes were filled with energy and fighting spirit again, he bowed to Yu Lian, and took a step back like a calm loser. , disappeared directly into the crowd.

Does this mean that I am convinced this time? However, I will never give up. Sooner or later, I must get my place back.

Some people's bones just keep breaking. Then again, Shameen won't grow faster and go further than in other timelines just because he has an "old enemy" like me, right?

Haha, this is a very royal and passionate story! Except for the missing sentence "Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi", all procedures have been completed. But this time, I am sitting on top, waiting for you to challenge.

Then, it’s time for reporters to interview.

Needless to say, all the influential media and the most famous reporters in the galaxy are here, and many lower-level media are not even qualified to send people in. More importantly, it is said that most of the people present were not sports journalists, but current affairs and even war correspondents, which is very imaginative.

When Yu Lian was the first to enter the nearby press conference, he was almost shaken by the battle and wanted to run away. Fortunately, he has been telling himself that a person who is free from vulgar taste and pursues it, a noble and responsible person, must force himself to leave his comfort zone.

He thought this, and then quickly put on a business smile on his face. This is what Feifei, who has always asked herself to "pay attention to expression management", asked herself to practice. It should be very complete in terms of both appreciation and affinity.

With such a smile on his face, Yu Lian gave his friends from the media a refreshing first impression, and then the smile on his face almost froze. This was not because his concentration and emotional intelligence were so poor that he could not maintain even this superficial skill, but because he clearly saw an all-too-familiar figure among the reporters, smiling quietly but sweetly at him. .

If it wasn’t Feifei, who else could it be?

...Why is she here?

Uh, yes, she is an officer of the Military Propaganda Department of the National Defense Commission (enjoying deputy director level treatment), and she is also a frontline reporter for the Blue Star Liberator. It seems very reasonable here.

Uh, but, speaking of which, it seems, it seems that she was not notified of my coming to participate in the God of War Festival!

Huh, so what if you say this kind of thing? It makes people worry for nothing. When the time comes, won’t the girl’s crying only affect my speed of drawing the sword? I won’t say that this is scientifically justified. Even if you take it to the Spirit of the Universe to file a lawsuit, I’ll be justified! Yes, it makes sense. reason……

Yu Lian used his willpower to defeat the Astral Knights alone, and finally did not let the smile in front of him collapse. He sat down calmly, and then he was attacked by a wave of long guns and short cannons.

Then, the reporters started asking questions.

"Lieutenant Colonel Yu Lian, I am a reporter from the "Ruixing Old Man Newspaper". The God of War Festival was originally a sports event for all the major ethnic groups in the galaxy to celebrate, a song of friendship and progress that celebrates unity and harmony, but now it has turned into a bloody Killing memorial! As this year’s divinely chosen champion, what do you think of this?”

What kind of mental retardation is this? Didn’t everyone come with the mindset that friendship comes first and competition comes second? The reason why it turned into a bloody massacre was because your empire didn’t do it first? You shouldn't ask Rumil, who made the first move, with this kind of question... Oh, yes, he was killed by me. Then you can ask Rumil's comrade Shameen first.

How did you manage to sneak into a press conference at this level?

Yu Lian still thought that the first person to speak was not a state-run media such as Dixun News Agency, Sky TV, or "Tianyu Times", but a three-page tabloid with a not-so-reputable reputation! Now think about it, this kind of nonsense like going out to land mines can only be published in the third page of tabloids. Anyway, what they want is traffic rather than reputation.

Looking at the reporter who spoke again, he was not even a human being, but a Kimyan. Yu Lian suddenly understood a lot.

There is no other way. If you step on a landmine, you will only make yourself embarrassed, but if you don't step on it, it won't work either.

Isn't this very sad? Yu Lian could even see the shrinking and helplessness in the eyes of this unlucky reporter Kimeyang. He had obviously accepted the task and faced it, and he suddenly felt a little sympathy for him.

Then, I will give you relief from beginning to end. Yu Lian thought.

However, before he could open his mouth to retaliate, someone had already taken the lead and said with a sneer: "The God of War Festival requires death. Each of us has signed a life and death certificate! Since someone is taking action, we can't even have a chance to fight back. You won’t give it to me, right? I know you guys are used to licking your master, but now can you have some bottom line in your conscience and IQ!”

The person who spoke was not Yu Lian's friend, but Paul Lubeka, the captain of the third-spin-arm Rangers, who was also from the community. This team, composed of veterans, persisted until the end, and actually broke into the top 20 in the standings, so they also caught the last train of this press conference.

During the God of War Festival, when Yu Lian was forming the alliance, he really hoped that the Rangers would come and join. Unfortunately, I don’t know if the other party didn’t receive the message or had other plans, so he never showed up.

The battlefield of the God of War Festival includes the entire continent and the surrounding sea areas, so it is not surprising that everyone cannot encounter it.

It is said that during the Ares Festival, Paul Lubeca and his men also had a fierce conflict with the empire, and two teammates died. Although he also led his friends to kill more than a dozen "enemies", his teammates were dead after all, and he must have been suppressing his anger now.

Mr. Lubeka, who was suppressed, was full of fire, and he almost cursed his mother. Reporter Kimeyang was also angry, thinking, would it be better if I was treated as cannon fodder and pushed forward? Why don't you have any empathy at all? Also, just swearing, what does it mean to call me "Grey Ma Gan"? No one with a minimum level of education would use other people's physical characteristics to make matters worse, right? I also think you humans are too short and ugly to look at! Can I call you dwarfs?

The officials at the scene saw that if the situation was not controlled, there would definitely be a fight, so they quickly winked, and several security guards immediately came up and asked Lubeka and the Kimyan reporter out.

The former stood up calmly, nodded to Yu Lian, and walked away. But the Kimeyang reporter suddenly became energetic. While being dragged out by the security guards, he was still shouting "Freedom of the Press!" "I want justice for all the contestants who died tragically in the God of War Festival!"

This guy is a talent! The colleagues present all cast awe-inspiring looks.

"Contestant Yu Lian, I am a TV reporter from the Imperial Royal Sky TV. You chose a method that we have never imagined in the God of War Festival. Does this represent some kind of preference on your part? Your approach this time is amazing. , will it change the entire situation of the God of War Festival in the future?"

Did you see that? This is the problem! It's obviously a compliment to you, but the hidden meaning behind the words reminds the audience that you are a bad guy at all, and you have no moral ethics at all.

Yes, what kind of martial virtue is it to bring a group of people to rub cannons? Anyway, many people are in a state of dissatisfaction because they did not see the imagined peak championship showdown between Shameen and Yu Lian. This gives him room to operate.

"Times always jump from side to side." Yu Lian said with a smile.

The reporter from Sky TV was slightly startled, then quickly said: "You mean, the situation of the God of War Festival will change in the future?"

Yu Lian smiled slightly and added: "Seagulls follow trawlers because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea." Then there was a tactical retreat.

The Sky reporter was completely confused. He didn't know what to say for three seconds, so he could only ask a few more routine questions.

In this way, the press conference began to proceed in an orderly manner, and the atmosphere in the audience was even strangely harmonious.

Immediately afterwards, there was a scene that frightened Yu Lian. This was a scene that was far more terrifying than the mental duel he had just faced with Shameen. Even he spent all his strength not to let his smile collapse.

Yes, Captain Fina Li, an officer of the Military Propaganda Department from the Community and a special correspondent of the Blue Star Liberator, stood up slowly with a bright smile.
