2 Just as Kong guessed, Jing Yuan was a "qualified" ruler who was willing to "lower his bottom line" compared to ordinary generals - he seemed a little moved when he heard this way of passing the buck.
[I can't guarantee it, but if she loses control of herself due to the plague, I have a way to physically get rid of Jianmu and the Fool based on the current activity. The price is just asking the general to sell me some more conventional alloys and a small amount of single precious metals.]
Kong simply revealed to Jing Yuan a little bit about the big project that shocked Black Tower at the beginning - his final solution was simple and crude, he would build a small ether phase engine and throw the roots of Jianmu into it as firewood to burn.
The ether phase engine has an advantage as an incinerator that cannot be replaced by any other treatment method - that is, it eats everything and is not picky. In a sense, the extremely high efficiency of mass-energy conversion means high incineration efficiency. Even if Ahalaoden is thrown in to burn, it can have the same effect as burning stars and star clusters.
Although it means that the situation is out of control and Tingyun's body may be destroyed along with Jianmu, wouldn't it be a win-win situation for everyone if her consciousness can be rescued before her soul is alienated?
This engine was destined to fail - he was very sure that Party A would not be happy to see the natives blow up the galaxy with a fart. This ultra-small furnace must be destroyed after being used once, and it would also depend on Hengjing's mood.
[We can discuss in detail...if the other party is willing to accept Jing's invitation.]
After hearing this crazy plan, Jing Yuan had a more intuitive understanding of the damage that geniuses could cause, and quickly came up with a condition to get Kong out:
【Luo Fu Dragon 2 Bones has long since gotten rid of 9 the 0 dependence on Feng Si Rao's blessing, and now ⒊ Jianmu roots are only a disaster for us liu. But this seemingly no longer the same power, it is used again by the bad guys... Jing must report this series of schemes to Marshal Hua, and hope to meet with the fool to see his character - what do you think, Doctor? 】
[Well, I don't intend to interfere with the general's judgment on the battlefield. As for her... she hates being in the spotlight. If the general cannot accept her request to hide her identity, I will convey it truthfully.]
[The doctor trusts me so much, I must be honest with him - if it is just the furnace plan, it is fine, but with that fool as a premise, this matter is unlikely to succeed. In addition, reporting to the marshal requires multiple transfers, but the situation on Luofu is changing with each passing year...]
The timeliness of negotiations and discussions in Luofu is often abstracted due to the abstract concept of time of the Xianzhou people, and even generals are not immune to this.
[Jing first puts the offer of this fool and the doctor's back-up plan into the backup plan. If the situation is really critical and the marshal does not respond, Luo Fu can only choose one of the bad and the worst results. ]
Well, does this mean that if you can't afford it anymore, then consider it? That's really clever.
[So I have fulfilled some of my promises to her. Thank you, General.]
But Jing Yuan said he would consider it. It seems that Fu Xuan has already predicted the future that this proposal will lead to, and it should be an acceptable picture.
[You're welcome... Are you leaving, Doctor? If the Doctor can't get anything out of me, I will go meet that Rakshasa tonight.]
[Will you come in person? That’s fine.]
【Since it is related to Master, I have to take some risks.】
After hanging up Yu Zhao, Kong sent a private message to Ting Yun, telling her that Jing Yuan was ready to choose between the worst plan and the worst plan, and received a series of exclamations from the fox.
[As expected of you, my benefactor - but if I cannot resist the erosion of abundance, and you have to deal with my body, where will the burning energy of the engine be directed? ]
[In order to reduce trouble, the energy of the furnace has to be wasted and cannot be used by Luo Xiao〃∮说◎日;≮更QuN:捌⑤∽qi″~liu÷∥六三№⊥⑷.寺㈡浮人.]
[Waste? I dare to ask another question - if eternal life is not possible, can the energy from the burning Jianmu wood save me from destruction? ]
Yes...it can fly directly out of the Three Realms and is not within the Five Elements. Not to mention destruction, even the hunting patrols may not be able to catch up with it.
Kong didn't know why Tingyun was so excited that his spiritual energy was unstable, but he just thought that this fox was extremely afraid of death. Not only did he want infinite lifespan, he also wanted to escape from "entropy increase" - but he clearly didn't say that this thing was an engine?
Sure enough, there are still smart people who can see the trick... In addition to the Black Tower, he has to ensure the absolute confidentiality of the core technology.
...But, if you go to another world, neither Destruction nor Hunting can cross the world to attack you, so in a sense you are free from destruction, right? It really can.
[I can’t go into more detail, Tingyun, if you go any further you’ll be crossing the line.]
In any case, Kong is still working for Party A - he has to figure out the primary employer. Jing Yuan is a secondary collaborator, and the Ether Phase Engine can be used to help Party A troubleshoot, test adaptability, and help Jing Yuan deal with some minor troubles. In the end, the scraps of this thing can satisfy Ting Yun's little ambition...
Otherwise he would be back to that awkward situation of being caught between myth and balance.
However, Kong's warning was further misunderstood by Tingyun——
[…I agree to meet with the general.]
[Oh? You suddenly become bolder? ]
[You understand me so well and indulge me. You can laugh if you want, but I really need this opportunity... 中, 转◎≤群:玖?)林★4芭∈'⑷●耳》【久:>lin⑤...please...】
[Okay. You'd better be able to eat the rotten wood. There's no need to light the stove. Don't you also want eternal life? This is just an alternative plan.]
[…In your opinion, is eternal life not a sin? ]
[For individuals, of course not, but under the current rules, immortality consumes too much resources, so it is not good for my party A. ]
…Party A???
Tingyun had no idea how many contemptuous names Kong had used to address "that person", but the punishment that should have come long ago had not yet come. Seeing that he was in such a powerful position, Tingyun became even more flattering.
[When you conquer the Scaled Abyss, I will be ready soon, and I will go with you to see General Luofu.]
[Isn’t it too late…? ]
[My benefactor, do you want to come earlier? I still need to make some preparations... I can't be so rude that I get beaten to death by Jing Yuan, right? ]
[But I feel like he doesn't have any prejudice against you... There's no need to worry so much, right? ]
【? 】
Should we say that he is indeed a believer in hunting? His first target of hatred is always Fengzao. In order to kill Fengzao, he even...
Hearing the convincing rebuttal, Tingyun felt a little annoyed and could only mutter:
[In order to deal with Jianmu, he could actually make such a big concession...]
[Yes... He kept shirking responsibility, but I think he wants to throw the rotten tree root to us right now.]
qUN:85期㈥〔♂蕗!'5$)泀¥■俬㈡ 【I will deal with it as soon as possible. 】
Hearing Tingyun hurriedly hanging up the private channel, Kong scratched his cheek and then let go of Yuzhao who had hung up with Jingyuan long ago.
He was holding the phone just to indicate that Hinai was in a "meeting" -
"…How afraid is this guy of death?"
"Afraid of death? Teacher, do we need to assign guards to other VIPs?"
Hina had already changed out of her pajamas and put on her usual chairman uniform:
"Asuna and Karin are in good shape and have both requested to fight."
"No, don't worry about the fox's life or death for now - Hua Lin, stay on standby, your energy is close to the critical point. Ha, it would be quite pleasant if Tingyun fell on the eve of victory."
After mocking the fool's behavior of pleasing his god with his own amusement, Sora looked at Hina, whose height was about to be covered by the length of the sniper rifle, and slightly lowered his body with some concern: "Does the gun I modified for you work well?"
"...I like it very much. I remember when Hoshino asked you to borrow this gun, you felt very painful..."
So it's because Hoshino wanted to use it that you like it so much?
Sora chuckled throughout her life - Hinata would also get jealous in subtle ways, but she never showed it.
This time, she not only brought the most handy Destroyer machine gun, but also an AXMC bolt-action sniper rifle, which was once Kong's favorite for long-range weapons.
Although the few words just now seemed to have determined the future direction of a star region, the impact of adding a gun on the situation seemed to be extremely insignificant...
But we still have to start with small things, step by step. Considering that every time Hinata pulls the trigger, she can injure a high-mystery enemy, every upgrade of her equipment will make the train group more important on the interstellar stage... Of course, it will also tilt the balance more seriously.
This time, Xingkong designated Hina as the distant guard, Liuyun and Walter went with him to find trouble with Luosha, and Shenhe was in the dark as the close guard - in case of emergency, he would use the .338 AP bullets rich in mysterious power and the Calamity-Relief Gun Head to let Luosha open his mind. ⒉
"You are so well prepared...are you planning to surprise him?"
"Just in case, we might end up fighting and falling into some difficult place like the imaginary space or the quantum sea. Oh, Liuyun, you don't quite understand what these terms mean - to put it simply, that weird guy and I might fall into the abyss or the world tree."
"…This is the first time I've seen you being so weird."
Liu Yun pushed up his glasses, thinking that Hina had tried all night to help him get rid of his worries but failed, so he felt a little sorry: "I didn't notice that man before, this time I have to observe carefully what kind of vicious man he is to make you so scared——"
"...I haven't even mentioned what you did last night. You put drugs in the tonic soup for Hina?"
"I just gave her a little bit of my blessing... Is there a problem?"
"... This job should be done by Kama. Don't throw feathers into the soup next time."
426. Cut off her live broadcast!
"Little white mouse, aren't you going to take me with you?"
"It's the last day to test, don't make any more trouble. Sheshe, you continue to follow Bailu's group. This is a contest between me and that man's equivalent."
"……Know it."
"Doctor, I will also follow up in real time. As long as Bai Lu's data meets the requirements, you can report to the general."
Before the door opened and closed, Ruan Mei echoed the words beside her, but she saw the expression of a man who hardly paid attention to her response and looked as if he was facing a great enemy. In the end, she just said lightly: "If you want to control the variables so that the equilibrium is not too sensitive, shouldn't you let me go with Heita?"
"Perhaps he thinks you are not good at fighting. Haha, the little white mouse's mind is too easy to guess. He is ready to kill that counterpart on the spot. Don't underestimate the team he brought with him this time."
"What on earth has he experienced that would make him wary of a knight even more than he would a Star God?"
"That guy has directly or indirectly killed many people, many of whom were friends of Little White Mouse. If you are interested, you can exchange my story for some research materials you think are interesting~"
"it is good."
The genius's way of gossiping is also very "genius" - after confirming that all the large troops have left, the eyes of the black tower puppet that was secretly keeping watch went out, and it was obvious that its mental link had gone somewhere else.
"...83 seats and 6 × $ "∮彡㈣〗≮四≠二浇tumor group: left, do you have any objection?"
"Let her be. This is a tacit understanding among old friends."
Ruan Mei also looked back at the tablet -
"The monitoring system readings on Bai Lu show that the amount of charge around her body has decreased slightly after a few days of training. Instead, the humidity changes more frequently. It is speculated that the water control technique has temporarily overwhelmed her innate talent for manipulating lightning, and has become the first option for dealing with external crises... We are about to go out, and we have to speed up the progress. She will be protected in the future, and I am afraid that we will not have such a good opportunity to obtain her data again."
"Oh? Isn't it time to clamor for following up with the white mouse first~?"
"The value of the doctor's research is higher than that of the future Dragon Lord. In order to ensure the long-term sampling, it is best to follow his lead."
In response to Sheshe's rare well-intentioned teasing, Ruan Mei gave him a reply that made his weird smile freeze.
“…I kind of admire you.”
"Thank you for the compliment."
……
The first arrangement after being teleported to Changletian was to let Hina find a suitable sniper hiding point according to the Yuxia Ting map given by Jingyuan.
This is a concentrated area where ambassadors, wealthy businessmen and politicians are accommodated. It was designed from the beginning to ensure that the lobby and the surrounding areas of the guest rooms will never be threatened by direct fire, and there are no good sniper positions on the periphery that can directly cover the scheduled negotiation location.
...It was said to be a scheduled negotiation, but Kong did not contact the front desk to tell Luosha that he hoped to discuss a business matter with him before leaving. He hoped to "accidentally" meet that guy in the lobby and judge whether he had some hidden malice through the spiritual energy he exuded.
The system will automatically identify all subjectively friendly or neutral units on the map, but Kong San, who was sitting in the tea area, confirmed several times that there were no hostile or neutral targets in the entire area, which meant that everyone, including Luosha, was friendly to him.
Moreover, if he and Danheng checked in at the same time, Luosha would undoubtedly have been friendly before they went to the Industrial and Manufacturing Department. This was another factor that puzzled him.
If he had no hostility towards his identity as the "Envoy of the Order of Plenty" from the beginning, then his connection with Jingliu would be questionable... Although a friendly test is still a test... it always feels weird.
While Kong was waiting for that guy to show up, he silently served Liu Yun today's "tea".
"Just wait for the other party to contact us?"
