Chapter 84: Prelude to the War

Chapter 84: Prelude to the War
All ghosts are forbidden to enter, and the nature is perfect.

Wang Jixuan came out of his deep meditation and when he opened his eyes, he still saw Lingtong's room.

However, the place had obviously been cleaned up, and all the previous blood stains had been cleaned up.

The spiritual consciousness extends outward, and the supply station is quiet.

Zhou Zhengde sat in the corner of the supply station, facing several terminal monitors, with a cup of steaming coffee at hand. He was saying something into the communicator at the moment.

Wan Xiaoqi, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and overalls, was curled up on the sofa holding her game console. The palm-sized screen of the game console shone on her little face, revealing a few freckles.

Uncle Tai and Sister Wan must have gone out on a mission, and the two big mechanical dogs in the supply station were also missing.

Two new rooms were expanded behind the supply station.

In the outermost "sentry room", Zheng Shiduo was lying on a bed in a daze.

In the next room, the young boy Wu Man was wearing white pajamas, sitting on the edge of the bed, reading seriously. There were all kinds of books around him, and there were two hand-painted posters on the wall.

Black Storm poster.

Where is Lingtong?
She should be fine now.

Wang Jixuan stretched lazily and stood up, and faint fluctuations of spiritual energy appeared around him.

After purifying the resentful power of those souls, Taoist Wang's cultivation took another small step forward. This time the increase in spiritual awareness was smaller, but the Qi sea in his body was thicker, his meridians were tougher, and his Taoist body was significantly improved.

Upon closer thought, it should be that when he used his magic power, his spiritual consciousness mobilized a large amount of spiritual energy into his body, and his Taoist body made some progress after bearing the extreme pressure.

This kind of improvement is a waste of the potential of the Taoist body. The practice of Taoism emphasizes gradual progress and accumulation of strength...

Moreover, Wang Jixuan has now discovered some problems.

Killing intention.

He has now developed the intention to kill and no longer cares about the sin of killing.

Using magic power three times in a short period of several months can have an unimaginable impact on his state of mind. Next, he must cultivate his body and mind...

Not right either.

"After successfully getting rid of that young kingworm and temporarily resolving the threat of the psychic, you can consider self-cultivation."

Taoist Wang walked out with his hands behind his back. The moment he opened the door, Zhou Zhengde and Wan Xiaoqi looked over at the same time.

"ah!"

Wan Xiaoqi jumped up in surprise, rushed to the operating table, and shouted into the microphone:
"Sir! Teacher Wang is awake!"

Zhou Zhengde shook his fist at Wang Jixuan, picked up the coffee, and walked over to him with a laugh.

Hearing this laughter, Taoist Wang felt much more at ease.

This shows that Zhou Yanei has already dealt with the subsequent impact.

Taoist Wang glanced at the calendar. Twenty-eight hours had passed since he started treating Ling Tong...

"They all went to encircle and suppress the group of blade beasts."

Zhou Zhengde smiled with narrowed eyes and raised his eyebrows at Taoist Wang:
"Are you looking for Ling Tong?

"She's very good. I should say she's ridiculously good. When she boarded her exclusive mecha, the compatibility between her and the mecha exceeded 92% of her peak value, reaching a record-breaking 98%!

"If I hadn't suppressed this message, the experts and scholars involved in the development of battle girls and mechas in the entire D5 war zone would be standing in two rows in front of you, waiting for you to give them a lecture."

"Fitness?" Daoist Wang clicked his tongue. "This is a new word that the junior mechanics have never heard of."

Zhou Zhengde asked again: "How is your injury? What is the price of the explosion? Is it serious?"

"It's just that I'll be weak for a while."

Taoist Wang, who had recovered to his full strength and vitality, said with a clear gaze:

"How is the war going on the front line now?"

"Look here."

Zhou Zhengde took him to the operating table nearby, and Wan Xiaoqi quickly pushed a chair over.

Zheng Shiduo and Wu Man had heard the noise and came out from their respective rooms.

Wu Man is still sitting in his wheelchair. He needs to wait until he has more muscles before he can train how to walk.

Zhou Zhengde opened a map of the Zhonggu Basin War Zone and briefly introduced it:

"After the young kingworm attacked Ling Tong, we have completely locked onto it. The next step is to eliminate it. It is hiding in a rock crevice 300 meters underground. There are also a large number of blade beasts outside.

“After discussion, the encirclement and suppression plan was divided into three steps.

"First, we will gradually reduce the range of the blade beasts' activities, then conduct a targeted nuclear explosion to eliminate most of the blade beasts so that the young kingworms lose their barriers, and finally kill this young kingworm.

"Right now, this young kingworm is in a desperate situation. Its previous reckless attack on Ling Tong has consumed a large amount of its spiritual energy. This is the best opportunity.

“In the Zhonggu Basin, especially outside the Sarri Desert, there are fierce exchanges of fire everywhere, and the blade beasts are going crazy.

"With the other integrated battle zones simultaneously exerting their strength, and the super reserve in the D5 battle zone already fully activated, there is no possibility for the blade beast swarms in various locations to break through... In other words, we are now intentionally letting this larva live for another day or two to attract the outer blade beast swarms to attack.

"Because of the entanglement between this young kingworm and Ling Tong, the Blade Beasts fell into a passive position in some areas."

Zhou Zhengde paused and added:

"Although I don't know the specific meaning of this sentence, but the message sent by the D5 headquarters contains this sentence -

"The awakening level of the main group of blade beasts has increased by less than one percent."

"That I know."

Wang Jixuan explained:

“The main group of blade beasts refers to the large group of blade beasts that defeated human civilization eighty years ago.

"They have entered a dormant state underground. The ones fighting us now are just a minority of blade beasts."

Zhou Zhengde raised his hand to support his forehead: "A junior mechanic knows too much. I don't even know this!"

"Ling Tong told me," Daoist Wang asked, "Have you found the path for the Mimic Blade Beast to enter the fortress?"

"found it."

Zhou Zhengde sighed:
“We got in from the front, and the composite partitions and surveillance cameras at several ventilation holes were destroyed.

"Now we have found out that it was not someone who deliberately assisted the Mimic Blade Beast, but those damned internal termites who deliberately damaged the partition walls and monitoring systems of several ventilation holes in order to create smuggling routes and escape routes for themselves.

“The accountability process has now been initiated.

"Unfortunately, the House of Psychics dealt with the two Saber Beasts on the 76th floor, which gave them a legitimate reason to continue to exist in Fortress ."

Wang Jixuan was also a little dissatisfied and muttered, "Can't they all be expelled? I still want to stay in Fortress No. 76 in peace."

“This is difficult.”

Zheng Shiduo pushed Wu Man over and naturally joined the conversation:
"The problem with psychics is not a problem with Fortress 76, but a conflict between the Pan-Surface Defense Alliance and the Psychic City.

"The series of events at Fort 76 has not yet escalated to a certain level in the Psionic City. The specialist they sent is just an old B-level guy. If it was an A-level or S-level... then we'd better go directly to the front line.

"This time, we killed four C-class psychics. They took the initiative to announce that those four guys died in the battle with the blade beasts. We have already won a round! Great!"

"The Two of Us".

Taoist Wang sighed softly.

He was determined to wipe out the Psychic House.

But on second thought, even if he killed this batch, there would still be a steady stream of psychics sent out later.

"If I act rashly, I will be easily exposed to the Psychic City."

"To deal with the Psychic City, it is not just about killing a few psychics, but about making them unjust and spurned by the entire human society."

"Either find a way to replace the role of psychics in the war between humans and Saber Beasts, or find a way to deal with Saber Beasts directly."

'The military continued to provide him with crystal cores, and he provided the military with the Demon Breaking Dagger series [Magic Weapons that Mortals can Use] to fight against Blade Beasts, so that he could gradually challenge the Psychic City. ''After all, at this stage, I have only touched the edge of B-level with all my means. '

Wang Jixuan thought carefully.

Wu Man whispered: "I have read part of human history. The organization of Psychic City should have been corrupted as a whole."

Taoist Wang asked: "Wu Man, when can you use your sensing ability?"

"It can be used three or four times a day," Wu Man smiled. "I have carefully sensed it several times. There should be no blade beasts inside the fortress."

Zheng Shiduo reminded: "Black Storm and Beast Whispering Boy, you are now the target of the psychics... What I am most worried about is that if time passes a little longer, they will report it and attract more powerful psychics."

Zhou Zhengde nodded and said seriously: "The front line has already started the purification operation, but the Thirteenth Institute's infiltration of the military has accumulated over time. At this stage, I dare not say that the front line is absolutely safe."

"Wait, these things can't be rushed, and you can't get fat in one bite."

Wang Jixuan did some chest expansion exercises, stood up and walked to the outer workshop. He said:
“Let’s focus on dealing with this blade beast first.

"If things don't work out later, Wu Man and I will go hide in other fortresses. For now, we just need to keep an eye on the psychics in the fortress.

"The psykers just make me feel sick, but this baby kingworm... it is extremely dangerous."

"Boss! Are you going to forge iron?"

Zheng Shiduo left Wu Man's wheelchair and followed him slyly:
“Can I see it?

"If possible, sir, can you help me make a special magic-breaking dagger?"

Wang Jixuan agreed casually: "It can only be an ordinary magic-breaking dagger, the kind I use myself will not work."

"It's fine if it's ordinary. It's fine if it's ordinary! I've already designed the drawings! Take a look!"

Zheng Shiduo took out a piece of white paper from his pocket and handed it to him with both hands. There was a simple structural diagram drawn on the paper.

This guy's little eyes were full of anticipation.

When Taoist Wang got the blueprint, a ball of fire suddenly shot out from his palm and burned the paper directly. He threw the ashes aside with disgust.

"Do not--"

Zheng Shiduo cried out miserably, heartbroken:

"Boss, you've ruined my whole morning's work! I spent hours drawing this picture!"

"Stay away from my workshop!"

Wang Jixuan's lips trembled with anger:
"Even if you bring me a hundred crystal cores, I can't possibly give you that plug-shaped handshake! You even asked for an electric one! Add a motor and an electric shock device to the handshake! Get out! Get out!"

Zhou Zhengde and Wan Xiaoqi had black lines on their foreheads and couldn't help but raise their hands to support their foreheads.

Wu Man blinked, his pure big eyes full of curiosity.

What plug?
……

[36 hours until the Baby Kingworm Suppression Campaign.]

The night breeze was blowing, and at the edge of the expanding C area, two figures were walking side by side.

It's rare for Wang Jixuan to come out and relax.

He actually wanted to get the big sword in one go and give it to Lingtong for self-defense.

Wang Jixuan had been pursuing the quality of the greatsword, but now he has changed his mind.

——First, let her use one, so that the military can see the real psychic crystal core weapon and strengthen the military’s confidence in opposing the House of Psychic Energy.

As for the residual souls of the blade beasts hiding in the crystal core, Wang Jixuan has found a way to pull them out.

Just after dinner, Lingtong changed into her tight jeans and a slim-fitting top. Under the top was a light pink sports bra, which perfectly wrapped up her upper body, which was between slender and plump.

There was a pendant on Lingtong's snow-white swan neck, and there were traces of lipstick between her lips, but she wiped it off temporarily.

"What are you thinking about?" Lingtong asked, holding the robotic arm on his back.

Wang Jixuan laughed and said, "How to muddle through life."

"Hmm?" Ling Tong said softly, "Isn't our weapons expert thinking about how to develop a more powerful magic-breaking dagger?"

"This is not a problem for me. It depends on the level of mutual trust between me and the military."

Taoist Wang looked at the starry sky.

The starlight became a little blurry due to the light pollution in the camp.

Ling Tong asked: "Did you really get...alien technology?"

"In a sense, yes."

Taoist Wang narrowed his eyes and smiled. He thought of the M8848 nebula and calmly changed the subject:

"By the way, sir, how are the preparations for this encirclement and suppression campaign going?"

Lingtong immediately became interested.

She said in a brisk tone:
"We are gradually advancing from the outside to the inside, fighting during the day and detecting at night. The 003 Space Fortress has also been suspended above this area to ensure that the baby kingworm can be destroyed. In about thirty hours, we will be able to launch a general attack on the baby kingworm."

Wang Jixuan gave a thumbs up: "Really good efficiency."

"All departments are making full efforts to deploy the equipment. Our half-human mechas are just the spearhead."

Ling Tong praised:
“Commander Dongfang Zhenghong is an excellent master of overall management. Before, I was prejudiced against him because of his background.

"Looking back now, I was short-sighted."

Wang Jixuan cleared his throat and said, "After we kill these blade beasts, let's go to Zhengde's house and invite Colonel Dongfang to taste his mother's cooking. How about that?"

Ling Tong turned and looked at Wang Jixuan: "Is this... a formal invitation?"

"It is."

"Okay," Ling Tong said softly, "There is one more thing I need your consent for."

"what's up?"

"I want to take Wu Man to the battlefield," Ling Tong said, "His ability to sense the blade beasts is very important. I will arrange for Zheng Shiduo to guard him."

Wang Jixuan said seriously: "Wu Man is a normal human being. He needs to follow his own will."

"But he regarded you as a spiritual mentor."

"Well, my spirit is actually to eat and wait for death."

Lingtong chuckled and was about to respond when she heard a slight vibration from Wang Jixuan's shirt pocket.

Taoist Wang took it out, took a look at it, and curled his lips slightly.

"what happened?"

"Zheng De said that Commissioner Wei Linzheng from the Psychic City wanted to talk to me. He has already rejected the request for me and said that I have returned to the front line."

Wang Jixuan stretched his body:

"The walk is over, let's get back to work!"

"Don't you need to rest?" Ling Tong asked softly, and it was impossible to tell what her mood was.

"Fight the Saber Beasts, no rest!"

There was a hint of touch in Lingtong's eyes.

Wang Jixuan walked in front and said, "Sir, you should rest after a day of fighting. If everything goes well, I will give you a treasure tomorrow morning."

baby?

Lingtong's curiosity was aroused.
