Chapter 179 Return to the void! The fourth realm of foundation building!
Red Snake honestly stopped talking and stabbed the corpse several times with his knife limb angrily.
Her voice sounded in Wang Jixuan's heart:
"I'm so angry! My sister wanted to be a human so much and ended up becoming a monster. They are human and they actually changed themselves into monsters!"
Wang Jixuan smiled and said nothing.
The souls of these six people are hidden in the crystal core. They can just take the bodies back for study later. Based on the characteristics of the crystal core, these souls cannot escape on their own.
However, to be on the safe side, he still got six demon-sealing talismans.
‘Crystal nuclei are transplanted into the human body, and brain-eating insects control the human brain, forcibly increasing the strength of psychics. ’
‘The Blade Beast also has something. ’
Wang Jixuan's thoughts fluctuated slightly. He raised his head and looked at the wind and sand everywhere, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.
It seemed that there were vertical pupils everywhere watching indifferently.
During this period of time, he was thinking about how to deal with spiritual practitioners, but he never forgot that spiritual practitioners are losers, losers who were defeated by the blade beast civilization.
The real powerful enemies are still these evil beasts.
"Everyone, go back soon. The bodies of these soldiers will be collected by the troops coming from behind."
Wang Jixuan ordered:
"Mudan, cut off the heads of these six guys, burn the brain-eating insects inside, and take the bodies back for research."
"Yes, sir!"
The transport plane slowly fell from the sky.
Just as Wang Jixuan was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something and rushed to the wreckage of the plane that had been rescued by Red Snake before, dragging Uncle Tai and several surviving researchers out.
When they returned to Fortress No. 76, the transport plane was flying slowly at low altitude, and the sub-king-level 'Human Soul Blade Beast' Red Snake was running wildly on the ground.
The fortress garrison who came to support almost sounded the alarm that the blade beasts were attacking the city.
The members of Shen Qionglin's team who had just arrived at D5 all turned pale and were obviously frightened by this scene.
How have they never seen this scene before!
When Wang Jixuan returned to Fortress No. 76, on a nearby sand dune, a scorpion-like bladed beast only twenty centimeters long was hiding in the sand. It aimed its tail at the red snake who was entering the hangar to take shelter.
The bug burrowed into the sand and quickly disappeared.
…
Two hours later.
Wang Jixuan sat in the dormitory on the seventh floor of Fortress No. 76 and slowly exhaled.
The Taoist priest did not worry about how to arrange Shen Qionglin and her team. There are many professionals here.
His attempt to pass the level was interrupted just now, which slightly damaged his energy. Now he must pursue it with all his heart!
Let your spiritual consciousness go out and check everywhere.
The level of martial law in Fortress No. 76 has now equaled or even exceeded that of the General Headquarters.
The second-generation half-human mecha black shell instructor was staying with Dongfang Masahiro in the command post on the third floor, observing the battle situation on the six fronts through the screen wall.
Both of them had serious faces, and it was obvious that the front line was a bit tight.
The beast god psykers suddenly joined the battle, putting tremendous pressure on the local battlefield.
Fortunately, D5 responded in time, and Commander-in-Chief Fu Jian rushed over to take charge and was organizing an effective counterattack.
Spiritual consciousness sweeps;
Zhou Zhengde was having a meeting with the governor to study the renovation of the lower city. They seemed to be launching some political activity related to Fortress No. 82.
Wang Jixuan was not interested in these, so he didn't read more.
Shen Qionglin and the batch of white coats she brought are now undergoing physical examination at the surface military camp to detect whether they carry unknown antigens.
Fortresses are enclosed spaces that are prone to outbreaks of infectious diseases.
Although major comprehensive war zones consciously update people's 'antibodies' in a timely manner, those who have returned from other war zones, especially those who have come out of biological laboratories, still cannot reassure everyone.
This inspection is a necessary process.
The Buddhist temple team has returned to their respective residences to rest.
The maids of the Peak Maid Group also began to do some daily maintenance.
The neighbor next door must be on vacation and is still sleeping in the middle of the day. Maybe he stayed up late again to record songs?
However, her sleeping posture is a bit unsightly, and she is so grown up that she even wears a nightgown with a bear pattern...
Cough, don’t look at anything inappropriate.
Wang Jixuan quickly withdrew his spiritual consciousness and allowed it to expand naturally. He deliberately avoided a virtual singer next door and maintained basic vigilance.
"peony."
He closed his eyes and said:
"Inform the Buddhist temple team and your team members that combat forces may be needed on the front line. If they are willing, they can apply for support after a short rest and rush over to support.
"It's enough to have you by my side.
"As long as someone doesn't call me later, there's no need to wake me up."
"Okay, sir," Mudan blinked, "What if there are other emergencies?"
"Unless someone I know is injured and needs rescue, there's no need to call me for anything else."
"clear!"
Peony said softly:
"It's really a blessing to be recognized by the chief."
Wang Jixuan smiled and said nothing.
Loyal wingmen often suck up to you.
——Her humor system includes this.
Meditating and concentrating, Wang Jixuan began to fall into trance, and a picture kept flashing through his heart. It was the scene when he was practicing hard in the mountains in his previous life.
He was recalling what he had thought.
To do it again, you have to have some different ideas and find out the gaps.
Gradually, stars appeared around Wang Jixuan again, and he seemed to be in a starry sky.
Mudan knelt on the cushion in the corner, habitually pretending to be charging. Her long eyelashes connected to each other and connected to the fortress network. From here as a starting point, she linked to the information network of the D5 comprehensive theater.
She is helping Wang Jixuan keep an eye on various areas and protect the people Wang Jixuan cares about in her own way.
For example, Ling Tong, Shen Hai, Wan Jie, Wan Xiaoqi, Zhou Zhengde, Wei Na, etc.
This is the hidden purpose of a loyal wingman. ——Peony thinks so herself.
Late afternoon.
There are no strange phenomena around Wang Jixuan, and the spirit-releasing array he has set up has been closed. The stars in the sky have returned to his body, hiding a sea of stars in his body.
Wang Jixuan was immersed in the Tao realm, and for a while he felt a little lingering.
The return to virtual realm has been successfully entered.
The Dao foundation has initially been harmonized. In the follow-up, we only need to lay a solid foundation to improve the soul and Dao body as much as possible, and then let the spirit, soul, body, essence, and Qi begin to unite, and then we can enter the realm of condensing pills.
The Dan Condensing Realm is a big hurdle.
If you can condense the golden elixir, you can embark on the golden elixir road and call yourself a golden elixir Taoist.
At that time, the monks can cross the void, raise their hands to call for wind and rain in a local area, their spells can connect to the mysterious world, and the power of Taoism will greatly increase!
However, Taoist Wang is still a little far away from the Golden Core Realm.
With his mind wandering away from Enlightenment, he took out the sword pill stored close to his body and began to perform the final step of refining the sword pill.
This flying sword is about to be born.
It was this hint of concentration that allowed Wang Jixuan to hear the conversation outside the door.
Zheng Shiduo came to see him, but was stopped by Mudan.
"Brother Wang is still getting promoted?"
"Yes, this matter of promotion is confidential, please don't spread it outside."
"I know, I know, the application I sent here has been approved. It seems that people are really needed on the front line. Will our Buddhist temple team go to support? What about the defense here?" Mudan explained: "Mudan will be here. , and the application for the Maid Corps was rejected. According to Mudan’s understanding, the military does not seem to be short of our mechanical bodies!”
"Okay," Zheng Shiduo did not forget to remind him, "Let's set off now. If you need anything, please contact us directly."
"Be safe, Mr. Pervert Duo." Mudan waved her hand in response.
"Why don't I feel anything when I get scolded by you? It's strange," Zheng Shiduo scratched his head and left quickly.
The Buddhist temple team has been equipped and continues to go on the expedition.
Wang Jixuan didn't tell them much and continued to study Taoism and practice the flying sword with all his heart.
Although the flying sword is powerful, it needs to be nourished by the body and soul. After being practiced, it must be placed in the sea of qi. If the flying sword is damaged later, it will also greatly affect itself.
The so-called intertwining of lives is probably like this.
He didn't know that Mudan had already prepared a good news for him.
The half-human mecha group led by Lingtong has achieved a great victory, defeating a king-level blade beast at a very small cost!
Although it is the weakest king-level blade beast around D5.
And in the place where the war ended, Lingtong was facing a choice. The 'mastermind' who gave her this choice was the devil commander-in-chief who was sitting on the front line in the other direction.
…
Late afternoon.
The battlefield where Lingtong is.
Viewed from the air, a large number of armored clusters drove away from the edge of the mountain of corpses piled up by blade beasts. Firepower mechas were hung under the transport planes and transported back to the rear base camp.
Second-line troops specializing in cleaning the battlefield began to enter the battlefield. They also had to beware of sudden attacks by blade beasts that might be seriously injured but not dead.
Now, the crystal cores confiscated here, as well as all valuable things on the blade beasts, will be transported back to the D5 headquarters according to the latest temporary law implemented in the D5 theater.
The Psychic City is unable to intervene.
In a large supply vehicle driving back to the rear base camp.
Lingtong was lying on the operating table and was being treated by the logistics team. There were some charred areas on the right robotic arm, which were injuries caused by pressure overload in the previous fierce battle.
She had never thought before that she could really fight against a king-level blade beast.
With the blessing of more than a dozen magic tools and Bagua discs, with the help of the psychic module loaded on the exclusive mecha, and using the seven-star sword formation, the seven half-human mechas, which are not the strongest, really defeated a king. Super Blade Beast!
This tactic can be copied!
Lingtong was very excited about this.
Because of this, she, who is usually serious about words, always has an indelible smile on her lips.
"Sir?"
A young female mechanic handed over a cup of coffee with a straw on it.
Lingtong raised his head and took a few sips, his eyes showing a tired look.
She asked: "How is Fortress 76?"
"Everything is normal, much better than your robotic arm."
Sister Wan responded without raising her head, staring at a series of sliding data, and said quickly: "Don't worry about Wang Zheng. They defeated six psykers of the Beast God Sect before. Now, Resting in the fort.”
"A psyker from the Beast Gods?"
Lingtong moved the fingers of the robotic arm, and a series of projections appeared in front of her eyes.
This is the information about the Beast God Faction submitted to the general headquarters by various places:
[The Beast God Faction psykers suddenly appeared on the border and cooperated with the attack of the blade beasts, causing heavy casualties on our side. Details. (4 hours ago)]
[The Beast God Psychic was found near Fortress No. 76. The opponent was suspected to be attacking the confidential target C23 and has been repelled. Details. (3 hours ago)]
[The latest autopsy shows that the Beast God Psychics have had a crystal nucleus injected into their bodies, some in the stomach and some in the large intestine. Examination of their body organs revealed that these crystal nuclei were forcibly inserted into their abdomens. The wound then heals on its own. The organs in the bodies of these psykers have mutated, and their brains contain giant brain-eating worms. This has been confirmed to be the first example of blade beasts transforming the human body. It is recommended to notify all theaters as soon as possible. (3 minutes ago). 】
[It has been confirmed that there are more than 620 Beast God sects who have defected from the Psychic City, and more than 300 Beast God sects have defected from other secret bases in the Psychic City. List attached. (8 days ago). 】
Lingtong read the first three messages carefully.
Her expression was slightly solemn.
Sister Wan smiled and said: "Don't be stressed, we have a secret weapon: the miracle machine."
"The transformation of humans by blade beasts," Lingtong said simply. "Such a thing has indeed happened. It was only theoretically possible before."
"Doesn't this mean that the Blade Beast is in danger?"
Sister Wan yawned, her eyes were a little more bloodshot, and she muttered:
"In the past, where did we get this kind of treatment? Now that the Brain-Eating Insect has been discovered, the Blade Beast has lost its control over humans, started talking, and transformed psykers.
“These monsters might be able to do something big in the future.
"Didn't I say before that blade beasts can devour each other and fuse with each other? Although this phenomenon only occurs in low-level blade beasts, this phenomenon has not been found in mid-level and high-level blade beasts so far.
"But who can say death?"
Lingtong asked: "Does the battlefield on the other side need our support?"
"Please, you have to rest now."
Sister Wan said helplessly:
"You have accomplished a feat and made an outstanding contribution, and now you must recover your strength.
"Close your eyes and sleep for a while. If Wang Zheng calls me, I will tell you that you are dating the God of Dreams.
"Or, I'll give you a harmless sleeping potion."
"It's best not to make such jokes. He has a very serious character."
Lingtong closed her eyes, her flawless face showed a little tiredness, she would soon fall into a deep sleep...
"Urgent message from the Commander-in-Chief!"
Lingtong jumped up from the operating table almost as a reflex. The robotic arm was still connected to the wires. He stood tall and proud, and raised his hand to salute the projection screen in front of him.
A dozen logistics personnel in the transport vehicle immediately gathered behind Lingtong and performed a somewhat chaotic military salute.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Fu Jian nodded slightly, looked at Lingtong, and said simply: "Switch into the encrypted voice channel built into the robotic arm."
"yes!"
Lingtong tapped his fingers quickly, while Sister Wan hurriedly took two headphones and put them into Lingtong's ears.
Fu Jian's voice soon sounded: "Thank you for your hard work in this battle. With seven relatively low-cost fifteen-meter-level exclusive mechas, you defeated the king-level blade beast. Your names have been written into the human military." history."
Lingtong immediately replied: "This is the result of the concerted efforts of everyone in the war zone!"
"That's what you earned through hard work and risking your life."
Fu Jiandao: "Don't worry about this direction. I have activated a small part of the mechanical army. The psykers of the Beast God Sect have only caused us a certain amount of chaos. The situation is now stable.
"Lingtong, I need you to do a multiple-choice question now."
"Commander-in-Chief! There are no multiple-choice questions in Lingtong's world. Soldiers can only execute orders!"
"No, you have to choose and consider everything comprehensively."
Fu Jian said solemnly: "The first way is to continue fighting on the front line. Because Wang Zheng helped you strengthen your body, your current comprehensive strength is comparable to that of a half-human mecha that has been modified by more than 65%.
“In this battle, you made the greatest contribution and are also the centerpiece of the team.
"The second path...become my candidate successor."
Lingtong was stunned for a moment.
"If you choose to take the second path, I will immediately arrange for you to go on a lecture tour across the theater to educate the public about the dangers of the Psychic City.
“If you want to become a hero that humans trust, you must first become a hero that humans worship.
"In addition, you will also become the chief officer of the Seven-Star Sword Formation and teach the half-human mecha groups in other theaters in the future. Your military rank will be promoted to at least general within five years."
Fu Jian paused in his words. Sitting behind a simple desk, he interlaced his fingers in front of his nose and whispered:
“We didn’t see hope before, but now that we do, some plans must move forward.
"In the current era, becoming a hero of mankind is a cruel choice for individuals.
“I personally don’t want you to choose this path, but your status as commander-in-chief forces me to consider making you my successor.
"When can you get back to me?"
Lingtong opened his mouth slightly.
She hesitated, a rare lack of decisiveness in her life.
