Chapter 113: Awakening from a big dream, the world has changed

Sky and sea, logistics island.

Following the investigation team ashore, the first thing Lin Ji saw was the white energy signal tower more than 100 meters high.

Lin Ji couldn't help but take a second look.

When he was young, he heard his teacher talk about the development of signal tower technology in class. This technology was regarded as one of the most important core technologies among the many technologies developed by the modern human empire.

Without this technology, expedition planning would be limited.

Before this technology was invented, the development of the human empire encountered a bottleneck that was difficult to break through.

The empire's territory is expanding every minute, and it is getting farther and farther away from the Imperial City. Information from the Imperial Church needs to travel across the ocean for several months to be delivered.

As a result, it will become very difficult for the Imperial Church to control and manage border areas. Policy communication, instruction execution, and reporting of war situations may all be delayed, making it impossible to make effective decisions in a timely manner.

This problem has become a top priority that plagues the development of the human empire.

It can be expected that as the expedition plan continues to unfold and human territory further expands, the problem of intelligence delays will only become more serious.

In the future, it may take several years for an order from the Imperial Church to be conveyed to a certain maritime border island.

In order to solve this problem, Emperor Xiujiao invested a lot of resources in research and development, and finally developed the super signal tower in front of them.

A transfer signal tower will be built on each core resource island or logistics island to quickly convey information and control the delay of intelligence to less than one minute.

Following the investigation team, Lin Ji came to a port.

Sunlight shines through the clouds on the rippling sea. The nearby vegetation is lush and green. The simple pier extends into the sea. Transport ships queue up to dock and leave. The waves beat against the wooden piles of the pier, making a "swishing" sound. .

Not far from the dock is a logistics supply station and warehouse. Vehicles are constantly coming in and out. In front of the warehouse, there is a group of people wearing logistics uniforms who are counting the latest batch of supplies.

The air is filled with a light salty smell and the freshness of the sea breeze, and you can also hear the chirping of seagulls, adding a bit of vitality and vitality to this busy and orderly island.

Entering the base, Lin Ji met the person in charge of the island.

A young man of about 25 years old wore an assistive technology device on his head, and data information was constantly flashing on the transparent screen in front of him.

At this time he was banging the table and roaring:

"Where are the supplies? Let me ask you, where are these supplies? How many days have they been delivered?"

"Plundering group? I don't want to listen to your explanation. You are required to deliver it within two days. Even if you swim here, you have to deliver it within two days."

Just as he was about to continue roaring, when he saw Lin Ji and the members of the investigation team, the emotions on the young man's face calmed down and he whispered:

"I'll contact you later. I have something important to deal with here."

After hanging up the communication, the person in charge of the logistics island took off the video communicator worn on his head, looked up at Lin Ji, then picked up a tablet on the table and scanned Lin Ji.

Suddenly, information about forest traces appeared on the tablet.

"Xiandu Island spiritual plant cultivator, forest traces."

"It's me."

Lin Ji immediately nodded in agreement.

"My name is Ji Qi, and I am the person in charge of this logistics island... I would like to apologize to you first. Next, I need to conduct a detailed physical examination on you to confirm your identity. Otherwise, I cannot rule out that you are the God of Conspiracy or the God of Conspiracy. A pretender sent by a certain evil god.”

"Understood, I'll cooperate." Lin Ji nodded immediately.

After putting down the tablet, Ji Qi personally took Lin Yi deep into the logistics base and conducted a series of physical examinations here.

But the physical examination process was not smooth.

Especially in the blood drawing process, the alloy needle made of spiritual ore could not penetrate Lin Ji's skin at all, and could not even leave a mark on it.

Halfway through the physical examination, it became impossible to continue.

It is still impossible to tell whether Lin Yi is a human being or a disguised believer of the evil god.

Just when the physical examination was in trouble and could not continue, an order came from the Emperor Xiu Church. After receiving this message, Ji Qi gave up the subsequent physical examination and immediately stated that the physical examination had been passed and Lin Ji's identity was confirmed.

This made Lin Ji very confused, but he didn't ask any more questions.

Xiandu Island has long since fallen, and he only has one idea now: to integrate into this logistics island, and then try to apply to go to Imperial City.

After he expressed his thoughts, Ji Qi decisively agreed to his request:

"Your application is approved. The nearest space station is on Dragon Island to the north. You can set off at any time."

"Thank you."

Although he was confused, Lin Ji was very happy that his application was approved.

……

Five days later.

After many space jumps, Lin Ji's figure appeared in the space square of Emperor Xiu City.

He was amazed by the bustling urban scene before his eyes.

High-rise buildings stand outside the space square. The glass curtain walls reflect colorful light in the bright neon lights. The streets are spacious and clean. Intelligent vehicles automatically recognize road conditions and avoid obstacles before shuttling in the sky at extremely fast speeds.

Pedestrians on the street all hold handheld smart devices and are seamlessly connected to the virtual world.

He was very unfamiliar with this place, but fortunately there was a taxi screen in the square. After entering his destination, an unmanned smart car came from the crisscrossing traffic above and stopped in front of him.

A few hours later, Lin Ji got off the bus outside the Guangfeng War Academy.

Looking up, a majestic archway stood in front of me, with four big characters "Bangfeng Academy" printed on it.

This institution has a long history, which can be traced back to the founding of the Imperial Kingdom. It is said that the commander of the Eighth Army once studied here, starting a legendary life.

Just as he was about to enter Linji, the guard at the door blocked his way.

After expressing his desire to see his daughter, the guard took out the tablet he carried with him and entered the relevant information.

After a long time, the guard's expression looked a little strange, and then he raised his head and looked at Lin Ji:

"What class of student is your daughter Lin Xi in?"

"The 672nd class of students, the student number is 100661."

After hearing Lin Ji's answer, the guard raised the tablet in his hand, which showed a photo of her daughter wearing a Death Legion battle uniform, with a heroic figure, and a line of words printed below the photo:

[Graduating student: Lin Xi (Legion of Death). 】

"Your daughter Lin Xi has graduated 63 years ago."

After hearing these words, Lin Ji's mind was buzzing, and he suddenly realized something.

Trapped in the space of consciousness, he loses judgment on time. It is now 63 years later, and it is no longer the time node in his memory.

"Can you tell me where she is now?"

"Sorry, I can't find any other information about Lin Xi here. Maybe you can go to the Legion Distribution Office to ask for more details, and they will give you the answer."

"Thank you." After thanking him, Lin Ji chose to follow the guard's advice, took a taxi at a nearby transportation station, and went straight to the legion distribution office in Emperor Xiu City.

A few hours later, Lin Ji passed the identity verification and took the tablet handed to him by the employee with an anxious mood. On it was Lin Xi's detailed information and a line of words marked under the photo:

[Lin Xi, the commander of Team 132 of the Third Regiment of the Death Legion, died in the battle against the Bone-eroding Elephants in the Chaofeng Sea in the year 683 of Emperor Xiu. He was 28 years old and had served for 10 years and 3 months... 】

Lin Ji's head was buzzing after seeing this information.

When he realized that his daughter had graduated 63 years ago, he already had pessimistic thoughts in his heart.

Although her daughter Lin Xi is excellent, she is just a pawn on the frontline battlefield. It is extremely difficult to survive to this day.

Three years is the frontline battlefield for veterans. Unless the daughter is promoted to Death's Chosen and has the power to fight against the evil god, the chance of surviving to this day is very low.

At this moment, seeing the "sacrifice" mark on my daughter's identity with my own eyes, an unspeakable sadness surged into my heart.

He never thought that the farewell to Xiandu Island Pier would be forever.

Raising his head to look at the employees at the distribution office, Lin Ji asked with tears in his eyes:

"I want to ask if she left any relics after she died."

The employee who took back the tablet heard this, reached out and clicked on the screen continuously, looked at him and nodded:

"There is a modeling space for leaving messages and scanning. You can go to the next room and enter your ID number to check."

After Lin Ji nodded his thanks, he went to the virtual room next door, where he chose a virtual warehouse with no one logged in and entered.

After waiting for a long time, the virtual connection is completed.

A feeling of weightlessness came over me, there was endless darkness under my feet, and there was a floating input box in front of me.

After Lin Ji entered Lin Xi's identity number information according to the staff's prompts, the virtual space changed.

What appeared in front of us was a room of more than 100 square meters. The east wall was covered with medals of honor. Three beam swords of different colors were leaning on the weapon racks in the corner. Two of the swords had nicks on their blades and were scrapped. Next to the weapon rack is a set of scratched Death Legion veteran power armor, with the Death Legion emblem printed on the right arm of the armor.

Next to it is a large bed, just one step away from the weapons rack.

This is obviously the room where daughter Lin Xi once lived.

When he came to the table, there was a diary on it with the word "Lin Xi" written on it.

Writing diaries is a tradition for soldiers of all major legions.

No one knows when he will die, so he will choose to write a diary to leave information and words to his family.

The war was too cruel. Many soldiers fell dead on the expedition. Even if there were relics and corpses, they could not be sent back. Therefore, they could only build virtual models through scanning and transmit their information to the database of Imperial City. There are traces of this preservation.

I came to the desk and sat down, and opened the first page of the diary. On it was a passage written by my daughter when she first arrived in the Death Army:

1. Dad, I have never been able to contact you. I am so anxious and worried about what will happen to you. I promised to make frequent video calls, but where are you (angry).

Today is my first day joining the Death Army. I have both expectations and worries about the future, so forget it... Lin Xi, follow the guidance of the Emperor Cultivator.

36. Dad, I’m afraid you’re gone. I can’t find out anything about the situation on Xiandu Island here, and I’m getting more and more worried about you.

38. Dad, this diary is written for you, but I still can’t contact you. It’s so uncomfortable.

134. Dad, I got the Blue Star Medal. I put my arms on my hips and show it off. I really want to make a video call with you to show off, but I still can’t contact you (crazy).

……

Looking through the diary, Lin Ji's tears fell unconsciously.

The diary records many interesting things about Lin Xi's growth, as well as her inner confusion and uneasiness.

From a frontline soldier, my daughter Lin Xi eventually grew up to be a ten-year veteran. She wrote this passage in her diary:

"Dad, I was promoted to commander today. I still have ten years to go before I become a gold-labeled warrior. If you knew, you would definitely be proud of me, but what I want to tell you is that my goal is to become the God of Death. I will continue to work hard for this dream, go ahead (make fists to cheer up)”

And this was also the last paragraph Lin Xi left in her diary.

Being a veteran for ten years was the end of Lin Xi's life. He died in the battle against the Bone-eroding Elephants three months later.

Closing the notebook, Lin Ji came to stand in front of the wall covered with medals of honor, stretched out his hand to touch the metal medals with tears in his eyes:

"Xixi, dad is proud of you."

The past events were vivid in his mind. In his memory, Lin Xi was still a slim girl. She would sit on the edge of the field and study hard while he was cultivating his spiritual field. When he came up to let her rest, she would raise her head stubbornly: < br>


"Grandpa said that the burden of our Lin family entering the War Academy of Imperial City fell on me. I have to strive to make you proud. What can I do if I don't work hard?"

He still clearly remembered the scene when Lin Xi failed the first round of physical fitness test and was training frantically around Lingtian. Even though she was almost paralyzed from exhaustion, she still refused to stop and shouted at him:

"Dad, go find Uncle Li and buy some sea animal meat. I will eat sea animal meat tonight to nourish my body. I will continue training after a short rest. I must pass this year's physical fitness test."

I still remember the scene when his daughter excitedly circled around him when he got the "excellent" report card in the first round of practical tests:

"Ahahaha, Dad, I got an excellent rating, and I'm one step closer to my goal."

Unlike when he was young, his daughter Lin Xi was always hardworking and excellent.

Level A in the physical fitness test, Level A in the comprehensive willpower assessment of three years of horror game experience, Level A in the intelligence test, Level A in combat awareness training... My daughter Lin Xi is the second person to be admitted to the imperial cultivator since humans established a city on Xiandu Island. He is also the first student to be admitted to the five major war colleges.

Lin Ji was always proud of her.

After staying in the virtual room for several hours, Lin Ji saw his daughter's growth and efforts, as well as her confusion and loss during her growth, through diaries and virtual video messages.

For the past ten years, Lin Xi has been eager to get in touch with him.

But this thought could not be realized until the moment when life withered.

Lin Xi wrote this passage in her diary:

"Dad, actually I have thought that you are dead, but I prefer to believe that you are still alive, so the diary message cannot be stopped, otherwise you will have nothing to read when you read the message in the future... Hahaha, if I die You are still alive, I am afraid you will cry for three days when you see this.”

This is why Lin Xi chose to continue writing a diary even though she could never contact him.

Even if he has a chance of living, something must be left for him.

When Lin Ji walked out of the virtual warehouse, wiped away his tears, he made a decision in his heart.

When he arrived at the legion distribution office, he looked at the reception staff who were sorting out information, and said with red eyes:

"I want to join the Death Army!"

He has been a coward all his life, but he has never worked hard for the future. He just wants to stay on Xiandu Island and farm for the rest of his life.

But now he has changed his mind.

Her daughter said in her messages and diary that her ultimate dream in this life is to become the God of Death.

He decided to fulfill this ultimate dream for his daughter as a father, joining the Death Legion until he became the Death Chosen, or like his daughter, his soul returned to the Imperial Cultivator in the endless expedition war.

Now that he has strong physical fitness and disease capabilities, he believes he can do it.
