MTL - The Old Gods Are Whispering-Chapter 43 You are so close to me

  Chapter 43 So you are so close to me

   The top floor of the Deep Space Building.

  Lu Zijin was sitting on a comfortable office chair, lazily holding his snowy cheeks, and playing with the ballpoint pen with his slender, white onion fingers.

  In the holographic stereoscopic projection on the opposite side, a figure in a white exercise uniform was condensed.

   This is a middle-aged man with gray hair like snow, a serious and deep face, as calm and majestic as a lion.

   "Zi Jin."

  He said seriously: "I have already read the information you sent me."

  Lu Zijin narrowed her beautiful eyes: "Senior Brother Chen, do you think there is any problem?"

This Minister Chen was silent for a moment, and said: "Gu Ci'an's son... Gu Jianlin is right? A very good young man, able to kill the clown almost independently, has proved that he has more potential than his father when he was young .From my personal subjective point of view, I am more inclined to train him, and don't let him be disgusted by the trial court."

   "But the problem is that the report you compiled has no evidence."

  He said lightly: "Although I also feel that the investigation process of the blood moon massacre is too fast, so fast that it makes people feel a little weird, and even us ministers can't get in touch."

  Lu Zijin licked his vermilion lips: "Then doesn't that explain the problem?"

   "No, at least in terms of rules, we can't challenge it."

  Minister Chen responded: "Because it is that person who investigated the blood moon massacre, a recognized hero."

  Lu Zijin was silent.

   That one is indeed a recognized hero, and even ministers like them cannot shake his authority.

   "Where is the President?"

   She asked, "What does she think?"

   "The old man has already retreated, and I haven't been able to get her instructions. The last instruction she left is to solve all the problems in Fengcheng before the opening of Qilin Fairy Palace, and the others are not important."

Minister Chen thought for a second: "As for the trial court, too many people died at the hands of Gu Ci'an, and it is inevitable that they will target Gu Ci'an's son. As a minister, it is more than enough to keep him. As for his resources, try to transfer some from other branches to ensure that he can be treated fairly."

  Lu Zijin pouted: "Is that all?"

   "There are only these at the current stage."

Minister Chen took a deep look at her: "I know that Gu Ci'an is very close to your Lu family, and Gu Jianlin's current potential is indeed very good. It's just that you have to let him show more The value is not limited to one jurisdiction. It is to enter the field of vision of the headquarters and have enough backing to compete with the Tribunal."

  He emphasized: "Project Omega is a very good opportunity."

  Lu Zijin frowned: "I see."

   Communication is interrupted.

  She stood up, facing the huge French windows, and remained silent for a long time.

  Actually, if possible, the best backer is not to enter the field of vision of the headquarters.

   It was the natural disaster-grade ascendant who had already arrived in Fengcheng.

   King of Green.

  In the burning copper cauldron, the flame went out.

  Accompanied by the scarlet light, a mass of thick blood floated up, twisting and twisting like a living thing, and countless blood-colored bubbles came and went, releasing a strong fishy and sweet smell.

The pharmacist looked at this scene, and there was a frenzy in his pupils: "It's done! It's done! This is the blood of the ancient gods, the precious resource that all alchemists dream of, comparable to the sage's stone in alchemy. We finally refined It's done!"

  The bookman sniffed the charming breath and said with emotion: "This is so **** sweet."

"This is the authority of the ancient gods. Their spirit is fatal pollution to human beings, and it is also an opportunity for evolution. Their language is fatal damage to human beings. The blood they create is fatal to human beings. , is another supreme gift, endowing human beings with evolution and breaking the shackles of life."

The pharmacist closed his eyes and prayed, put his hands on his chest, and said reverently: "They are a race born from the depths of the universe, and use the energy of the entire planet as a breeding ground for life. If they hadn't experienced the catastrophe of destruction... I am afraid that today's human beings , is also a captive domestic animal, enslaved by the gods, and becomes their nourishment."

   "But now, it is the age of mankind."

  Shu Weng suddenly thought of something: "Teacher, if we take the blood of the ancient god, then the next time we enter the Qilin Immortal Palace, won't that supreme being be able to manipulate us at any time?"

The pharmacist gave him a mentally handicapped look, and sighed, "You are saying that if we don't take the blood of the ancient gods, that supreme being will not be able to kill us. You have to remember, we are not that kind For sublimators who are strong enough to fight against the ancient gods, our advantage has never been in strength."

   "Even if he is a **** and we are ants, so what? He has been imprisoned by a more powerful ancient **** for thousands of years, without any way to contact the outside world, and his spirituality has been dry for thousands of years."

  He smiled and said, "The Qilin Fairy Palace is about to open, and he can't wait to escape, but before that, he needs to replenish a lot of spirituality, otherwise he won't be able to fight against the entire human world."

  Shu Weng suddenly realized, and said: "So in the Qilin Fairy Palace, he will not kill us. In fact, we are only maintaining a superficial harmony, but in fact we all know it well."

   "Yes, His Holiness is clear, and we are also clear, we are just using each other's relationship."

The pharmacist said indifferently: ""Ancient Wenji" once recorded that in order to obtain eternal evolution, someone sacrificed his life and soul to an ancient god, thus becoming a **** servant and enslaved forever. But when the ancient **** After sleeping in that lost world, for the next two hundred years, he never got any orders..."

  Shu Weng said: "He is free! Because the ancient **** is sleeping in another world!"

   "Yes, everything is under control."

  The pharmacist said: "As long as we can survive the baptism of the blood of the ancient gods, instead of exploding and dying halfway, then we will completely get rid of the shadow of death, and thus embark on a glorious...road of evolution!"

  In the copper cauldron, the mass of thick blood cooled down and surged silently.

   "Complete the evolution as soon as possible. The Kraken sent a message 15 minutes ago. This black market has been targeted by the Aether Association, and it will be fully cleaned soon." Pharmacist said.

   "Since we have completed evolution, what are we afraid of?"

  Scholar looked disdainful.

   "Stupid! Never underestimate the association! The water behind the association is much deeper than imagined."

  The pharmacist sternly advised: "It is a big taboo to be blind and arrogant just after gaining power! What we have to do is to retreat and avoid the edge of the Aether Association. Don't make any troubles at this time, do you understand?"

  Shu Weng whispered: "Understood, teacher."

  However, he looked at the ball of bright red blood, swallowed, his eyes fascinated.

  It seems that he didn't listen to the teacher's words at all, but was fascinated by the power that was close at hand.

  ·

  ·

   For a moment, Gu Jianlin seemed to hear the noise of the whole world.

  Of course this is an exaggeration, the main reason is that his life perception almost covers the entire deep space technology building, and there are too many people in this building, so many that he can't even count them.

   Imagine that you are in a closed space, and then thousands of speakers play different music at the same time.

  Or standing in a noisy and crowded street, countless whispers echoing in your ears.

  If it wasn't because he was a sublimator and his spiritual will was different from that of ordinary people, he might have passed out on the spot.

   "What the **** is going on?"

  Gu Jianlin clearly remembered that the life perception range of the first-order commander was 25 meters.

   And he was able to cover the entire building.

   This is obviously not an error in the information of the Aether Association, but his problem.

   "Maybe it's because of Venerable Qilin! I got the power of Venerable Qilin, it's not just as simple as a dual-core drive. There may be a reason why Qilin's instinct led me to choose the path of God."

  Gu Jianlin secretly thought of a possibility: "In addition to the ancient deification, I am affected by the power of the Qilin Venerable in the human state, and I can also benefit from the advancement of the Shensi path?"

   I don’t know if other abilities have changed.

  At this moment, he suddenly felt that two majestic melodies appeared in his life perception.

   Not in this building, but far away.

   That is the familiar rhythm of life, as rough as the roar of a wild beast, majestic and deep.

  Gu Jianlin was stunned, and immediately turned his head to look into the distance, because he suddenly realized that this rhythm of life was exactly the same as the blood of the ancient **** that he sent out.

and many more!

  He suddenly understood.

   Among the five people in the ancient tomb, someone took the blood of the ancient god!

   "The blood of the ancient gods was created by me in the state of ancient deification, and the function of this drop of blood is to help them complete their real evolution. This seems to be what they call...God servant!"

  Gu Jianlin pondered for a moment, probably figured out the key point, and murmured in his heart: "The ancient gods use the blood of the ancient gods to help people complete their evolution and make them become servants of the gods, guardians of the gods."

  Currently, two of those five people have taken the blood of the ancient god.

  Gu Jianlin had a direct feeling from a long distance away.

   Interesting, although the distance is a bit far, it is still in Fengcheng.

   "I didn't expect you to be so close to me."

  Gu Jianlin's eyes flickered, this matter is getting more and more interesting.

   At the same time, the mobile phones of Lu Zicheng and Chen Qing rang a notification from the Deep Space Network.

   "Collective hunting operation - Asgard Project, officially opened!"

   "Captains and vice-captains, please go to the central control room to receive mission information."

  Gu Jianlin's mobile phone also repeatedly broadcast Tai Xu's notification.

   "Hello, respected D-level investigator Gu Jianlin, your team has participated in this large-scale hunting mission. Please bring your equipment and supplies and gather at the front lobby of the Deep Space Technology Building immediately."

  Lu Zicheng stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "I'm going first, can you do it?"

  Chen Qing also picked up her handbag and looked at him with concern.

  Gu Jianlin said lightly, "Don't worry, it's okay."

  ·

  ·

  The front hall is a wide conference hall, which is usually used for meetings.

   There were scattered investigators sitting on the seats, a total of fifteen people.

  There is no captain, all are team members.

   Except for the captain and deputy captain, each team is basically configured in groups of three.

   "I heard that this mission is to cleanse the fallen from the entire Fengcheng."

   "The association seldom engages in such a big battle. It should be because of the opening of the Qilin Fairy Palace, right?"

   "Yes, my father told me that I must behave well this time. Last time, I made a big clown in the clown hunting mission. I was scolded at home and almost got grounded by my family."

   "What are you? When I just got up from the hospital bed, my grandpa gave me two big bibs."

  Investigators whisper.

   "Wait, didn't you say there are seven teams in total? Why are there only fifteen people?"

"Have you forgotten? Leiting has always been alone, without a captain, vice-captain, or teammates. She herself is the strongest in the third rank, even comparable to the fourth rank, so she is a team of one person. "

   "Then the number is not right, isn't there one more person?"

   Speaking of this topic, those who participated in the clown incident were silent.

  The clown incident was an indelible shame for the original action team.

  Although because of Necromancer Gu, this is a non-war crime.

   But they were indeed wiped out, and they survived only because of a zero-level new man who turned the tide.

  Cheng Youyu was a little embarrassed when he mentioned this, and scratched his head.

  Nie Xiangsi lowered her head, looking at the photo in the ruins, her clever eyes were full of curiosity.

   He looked up from time to time, but he didn't see the familiar figure.

   "If I were you guys and suffered such a humiliating defeat, I would even kill myself with a gun."

  On the seat, I saw a young man in a white suit with a stern expression, and said indifferently.

  Beside him there is a man and a woman, obviously his teammates.

   "You survived by the son of a fallen man, what about your face?"

The young man in the white suit said lightly: "If I remember correctly, that man's father did not commit suicide after he fell, but was swallowed by desire and mutilated his companions. That man was able to kill the clown, probably because of what his father left behind, right? In other words, this kind of victory is achieved by trampling on the corpse of the victim, which is despicable."

   No one spoke.

  At this time, the door of the conference hall was pushed open.

I saw a black-haired teenager walking in with a blank face. He was wearing a black shirt with sleeves rolled up to his arms. His lower body was gray slim-fit pants and a pair of white sneakers. He was clean without any decorations. .

  As soon as he appeared, the atmosphere suddenly changed.

   "Here, that's him, D-level investigator, Gu Jianlin."

   "Wait a minute, is this the one who was used as a bait to kill the clown solo while all of you were lying dead?"

   "That's right, it's him..."

   Oh, I forgot to update regularly...
