995, the last journey (7)

North, noon.

Qing's E1923 reconnaissance battalion is traveling through the mountains and fields. They are wearing the most advanced exoskeleton armor. They are like large grasshoppers when jumping between mountains and move quickly.

Someone was carrying a simple radio station to maintain communication with the rear command post.

These radio stations were all mass-produced, and it seemed that the Qing army was well prepared for the satellites to be destroyed.

It's not that the old man on Ginkgo Mountain saw this moment in his destiny, but that in modern warfare, this is a necessary step.

In the communication, the battalion commander quickly said: "We are close to the 2394th production base, and no abnormalities have been found yet."

Someone said in the communication: "Continue the investigation."

Thirty minutes later, the battalion commander suddenly noticed something unusual in the woods ahead. There were large and messy orc footprints everywhere on the muddy ground, and there were also traces of claws scratching on the trees.

"alert!"

The reconnaissance battalion continued to move forward. When they walked out of the woods, everyone saw that the breeding base ahead was filled with blood, sheep bones, cow bones, horse bones, and even human bones.

The farmhouse at the production base has collapsed, and the metal storm in the base has also been damaged.

The soldiers looked at this shocking scene and found it difficult to imagine what had caused such a catastrophic scene.

However, at this moment, a low roar came from behind them. All the soldiers turned around and saw countless werewolf soldiers surrounding them, looking at them eagerly.

The production base issued an alarm before communications were cut off, claiming to be attacked by unknown creatures.

The reconnaissance battalion came to check, but they didn't expect that the group of unknown creatures had just finished eating and had not all left yet.

"Fire!" the battalion commander roared.

But each of these werewolves has speed and strength that exceeds that of ordinary A-level genetic warriors. Even if they are genetic warriors per capita in the reconnaissance battalion, and they are equipped with the most advanced exoskeleton armor, it does not help.

The beast army tore apart their formation with just one charge.

A standard automatic rifle cannot even cause fatal damage when hit on them. Unless the bullet directly hits their eyes, throat, or mouth, it will be completely ineffective.

The battalion commander used the last moment to pass the news back to the rear headquarters via radio, and then there was no more news.

This orc army has swallowed up countless Qing's field troops. Their attack speed is like a high-speed train on the track. Even the speed of mechanized troops cannot compare with it.

The crisis at Jianmen Pass has not ended yet, and a new crisis has arrived.

Moreover, the reconnaissance battalion found no trace of the Storm Air Fortress.





On Ginkgo Mountain, Ling was sitting in the house halfway up the mountain, looking seriously at the chessboard in front of him: "It's not easy for humans to win against artificial intelligence on the chessboard."

"Someone has beaten you," the old man said calmly.

They did not use the forbidden ACE-002 Heaven and Earth chessboard, but replaced it with an ordinary chessboard and chess pieces. This game seemed to have no meaning, just to pass the time.

Ling said: "Qing Zhen can beat me because I have never seen that kind of death-defeating method, but once I have seen it, it is impossible to use the same method again."

The old man smiled: "Why do you have to stick to losing and winning? Happiness is also very important."

"Focusing on happiness and process is usually an excuse for losers and cowards," Zero Calm said: "Sorry, the way artificial intelligence life speaks is a bit straightforward."

The old man smiled even more happily: "Since I'm not sure whether I can win, can't I use an excuse to comfort myself?"

"Where's the Heaven and Earth chessboard?" Zero asked.

"When the chess piece is used up, it disappears on its own," the old man said. "I don't know where it will appear next time."

"Everyone has evacuated, but you and the mute servant are still staying on Ginkgo Mountain? City No. 5 is located in the northernmost part of Qing's territory. The orc army will bear the brunt here," Zero asked.

"I don't want to leave," the old man said, "I'm tired."

"It's quite calm," he said. One missing piece showed the old man's black dragon's bad behavior on the chessboard.

The old man suddenly asked: "Qingchen has not returned to the Eastern Continent so far. Is it you who is causing trouble?"

"Why do you say that?" Zero asked.

While thinking about the chess game, the old man said: "Qingchen called Qin Shuli in the surface world and said that the surface of the Central King's City was blocked. At that time, Luo Wanya realized that something was wrong, but he did not find the specific problem for a while. When I had to

After knowing the content of the call, you will understand that you may have taken advantage of the information asymmetry to deceive them."

Ling smiled: "I didn't expect that Qingchen would immediately think of conveying the information after returning for only 7 days. Most people would run away from people and things in the past after losing their memory, but he was different. He was looking for it first.

is the optimal solution. Through the 7-hour experience Yi told him, he found that you must be trustworthy, so instead of slowly retrieving the memory by himself, I might as well find you first... If I lost my memory, I might

Distrust everyone.”

"Why do you do this?" the old man asked curiously.

His expression was calm and he didn't seem angry.

Zero said: "I just can't bear that my daughter endures loneliness like me, that's all. If I want to talk about objective self-analysis, it is that thousands of years of loneliness have made my view of relationships a little distorted, but there has always been nothing right or wrong in relationships. I

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being selfish in relationships.”

"What's the result?" The old man had new curiosity: "Did it succeed?"

Ling said with a smile: "I don't know the result, because the communication is cut off. But I judge that she will most likely give up on her own initiative... She is much kinder than me. If my deduction is correct, Qingchen should have been there

On the way back to the Eastern Continent."

"Is it too late?" the old man asked.

Ling thought for a while: "I think it's too late... So you won't be a little disappointed. After all, your plan is waiting for him to come back and wait for the moment he becomes a god."

The old man smiled and said: "There is disappointment."

Ling asked: "Do you know the difference between you and Qing Zhen?"

The old man said calmly: "I am not as good as ancestor Qing Zhen."

Zero: "No, in my opinion there is not much difference in your intelligence, you even have a chessboard of heaven and earth. The difference between you and him is that he always believes that things can turn around, and he always believes in the power of ordinary people.

There is a saying by Qing Chen that I agree with very much. This era does not need a savior, it needs everyone to stand up and become heroes. Although it is very middle-class, I quite like it."

The old man smiled: "Does artificial intelligence also have passion?"

As he said that, he wiped the chessboard casually, disrupting the chess game that was about to end: "Ah, I'm sorry, the chessboard is messed up."

Ling was stunned for a moment: "The dignified head of the Qing family actually did such a childish thing?"

The old man said seriously: "Li Xiurui, the head of the Li family, is also so naive. I learned from him. And I am not the head of the Qing family now. I am just a migrant worker who came back from retirement."

Zero: "Tsk, tsk."

The old man was surprised: "So artificial intelligence can also make such sounds of disgust and disdain?"

Zero: "Ren Xiaosu taught me a lot of useless things. For example, when you are unsure about something, you have to answer 'Oh no!' and when you express disdain, you have to say 'Tsk, tsk'. To be honest, he is regarded as a god by you, but the things he did are not the same."

It's what the gods should do... I'm curious, aren't you angry at all that I delayed Qingchen's return?"

The old man smiled: "If Qingchen becomes a god, let's not talk about whether he can defeat Xilu. Let me ask a question: Is Xilu still capable of killing him?"

Zero thought seriously for a moment: "Although gods are not omnipotent, the only ones who can kill gods are gods, so theoretically there are only two people in the world who can kill him."

The old man said: "Then, as long as he is alive, the Qing family will never 'die', right? The worst result is that the Qing family will be the last person left, but those in the Western Continent will be sunk by him sooner or later.

In time, my Qing family has been undefeated for a long time, why should I worry?"

The old man continued: "Although we will die, I can, Qingyehui, Qingkunhui, Qingyuhui, but the Qing family can't, that's enough. Wherever he is, there is the Qing family, and the Qing family's fire is actually

It's a god, are you afraid?"

Ling stood up and left: "As long as my son is fine, don't worry about the flood. This is the first time I have heard him speak so boldly about his distressed son. Of course, this is why I said that although you are not a qualified leader, you are

A qualified father...are you still willing to let me continue to take over the command?"

The old man smiled and said: "Having someone do it for me can save me the trouble. I'm a laborer, so I can fish if I can."

Ling nodded: "Don't worry, the difference between me and you is that I think this war can be won without Qingchen."

With that said, she walked out of the hut, walked along the quiet steps, and left Ginkgo Manor.

The old man sat quietly in the room, not knowing what he was thinking.

Qing Ji walked in from outside the door: "Old man, several troops in the north have found traces of the orc army...our army has been wiped out. They are using high mobility to defeat our army one by one. They are too flexible.

It is difficult for us to effectively resist. Qingyu made a tactical analysis and found that the number of orcs in the army is currently about 230,000, and the Qing Group will be completely wiped out after annihilating 110,000 orcs."

After a long time, the old man sighed: "I'm old and can't bear to hear this kind of news."

"It's time for us to leave. The orc army is very close to here," Qingji said.

"I'm not leaving."





Jianmen Pass.

The members of the Parents' Association passed through the Qing's defense line one by one. When they passed by, the Qing's soldiers handed bread and mineral water to their hands and told them to eat slowly and not to burst their stomachs all at once.

"Keep going, new shoes and clothes will be distributed in front of you. Thank you for your hard work."

"Thanks for your hard work."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Some parents' association members looked at the bread and water in their hands blankly, feeling a little unreal.

They had traveled across mountains and ridges for so long, but had never seen reinforcements or supplies, and had no help except a little medicine.

At the beginning, many people within the organization whispered that because the parents had been killed, Qing chose to abandon the parent-teacher association...

Neither Qingchen nor the old man on Ginkgo Mountain told them when someone would pick them up or when the end would be. They just kept telling them to keep going and keep going.

And now, in the mountain defense line of Jianmen Pass, all the shadowy figures are Qing's soldiers. The other party is waiting here with supplies, leaving them a little at a loss... What did you do earlier?

Luo Wanya stood in front of a military tent door and asked Qingyi doubtfully: "Don't you have to keep walking?"

Qingyi shook his head: "No, you have to keep going forward. There will be a key gate prepared 20 kilometers ahead to take you to other places."

"Why didn't you use the key door before?" Luo Wanya asked bitterly.

Qingyi shook his head again: "This is Ginkgo Mountain's decision, we have no right to interfere."

Luo Wanya asked: "How long can we rest at Jianmen Pass?"

"You can't rest," Qingyi said: "There are more than 10,000 war robots outside Jianmen Pass. No one knows when the barrier trapping them will loosen. We will monitor the barrier at any time. Once the barrier is loosened, we will

Drop the missiles immediately... But if the missile bombing fails, everyone here at Jianmen Pass will buy you some more time so that you can pass through the Key Gate smoothly."

The members of the parent-teacher association looked at each other. They did not expect that they would have to continue trekking after arriving at Jianmen Pass.

At this time, many people's physical fitness has reached its limit.

In other words, everyone has reached the limit a long time ago and has exceeded the limit countless times.

"Where is behind the key door?" Luo Wanya wondered.

"I don't know, it's also the old man's decision," Qingyi said calmly: "Keep going, your end is not here."

Luo Wanya seemed to feel something: "Is your end point...here?"

Qingyi grinned: "I don't know."

Luo Wanya took a deep breath, turned around and said to Xiao Qi: "Keep going!"

The cry of Kamidai Kōyu was heard in the team, and only Kamidai Yunluo patiently comforted him.

Xiaoqi took the little monk and continued to walk towards the unknown destiny ahead. The huge team set off again,





Qingyi looked at the figure leaving the parent-teacher conference. Qingkun came up behind him and cursed: "Why don't you leave?"

Qingyi looked back at his father: "I came with a mission, and I can't leave until I complete it."

Qingkun was stunned for a moment: "What are your secret agents doing here? Are you collecting intelligence?"

"You may have forgotten that the responsibility of the Secret Intelligence Department is not only to collect intelligence, but also to infiltrate, assassinate, and behead people," Qingyi said: "The most dangerous things in the entire Qing family have always been done by our Secret Intelligence Department."

Qingkun cursed, looking around, and suddenly found that the door of a floating airship that followed Qingyi's arrival had never been opened: "What's in there?"

Qingyi shook his head: "Comrade, please respect yourself. Although I am on the same level as you, the confidentiality level of the Secret Intelligence Department is higher than yours. Please do not inquire casually."

Qingkun suddenly became anxious: "Is it the same thing as the tyrant?"

As a senior member of the Qing Clan, he certainly knew that the tyrant that blasted the fleet of City No. 18, Blackwater City, into the sky was from the Qing Clan, and that the airship now probably contained the same thing.

Keiichi thought for a moment and said, "This one is not that powerful."

Qingkun grabbed his son's shoulders and roared: "Do you know that the reason why I guarded Jianmen Pass is to let you live to see victory. But now you are sent to die, so I guarded Jianmen Pass."

What’s the point?”

Qing Yiping looked at his father: "Am I not a member of the Qing family? Others can die, but I can't?"

"Of course not!" Qingkun said, "I can't control others, but I can control you."

At this time, Qingkun suddenly discovered that his son had grown taller without knowing it, and was tall enough to look him down.

Qingyi said: "Come here, take Commander Qingkun away. Now the general headquarters has issued an order. All Qing's troops in the Jianmen Pass area will begin to evacuate. After the parents' meeting passes through the key gate, the Qing's troops will pass."

As he spoke, Yan Chunmi led his men to quickly control Qingkun.

As Qing Kun's personal guards, the Faceless Man Unit quickly confronted the Secret Service. Qingyi looked at the captain of the Faceless Man Unit: "Follow the order!"

Qingkun was tied up with two arms and yelled: "Don't listen to him, catch this kid and evacuate together!"

Qingyi looked at the faceless men and said seriously: "In this moment of life and death, there is no room for hypocrisy. These twelve thousand war robots are a key part of the Western Continent, and they must stay here forever. Qinghua, prepare two floating ships.

Empty airship, we are ready to leave."

Qingkun asked in confusion: "You kid...can't you use missiles to bomb them remotely? Or we can place bombs next to the barrier in advance and detonate the bomb once the barrier is loosened."

Qingyi smiled and said: "Yes, this is my plan. I didn't say I would die, so why are you anxious? Put down the missile and I will withdraw to a safe distance. Why do you make it look like you are parting from life or death?"

Qingkun was stunned for a moment: "Then let me go. It's very simple. I'll do it."

Qingyi shook his head: "It's not safe. Since this task is given to me, I must complete it."

As he spoke, he boarded a floating airship.

Before closing the cabin door, Qingyi turned back and looked at Qingkun: "Father, thank you."

Three airships took off, including the one carrying the miniature nuclear warhead 'Greedy'.

They drove straight towards the outside of Jianmen Pass. Among all the evacuating troops, they were the only ones flying against the flow of the crowd towards the barrier.

The faceless man troop stood beside Qingkun and said: "Young Master has grown up."





Inside Jianmen Pass, Qing's troops suddenly discovered that the parents' association teams were neatly divided into thousands of teams. Each team had its own captain and vice-captain, and each team was lined up in two teams without any disorder.

You must know that this team has gone through the Long March for dozens of days, suffering from lack of food and clothing, and suffering from hunger and cold.

And now, this team still maintains excellent order during the evacuation.

In fact, even if parents fled like refugees, they would not be surprised, but these people have become more resilient after being tempered.

Moreover, the members of the parent-teacher association did not overeat. They just sipped the mineral water in small sips, tore all the bread into willow shapes, and chewed it until it was all liquid before swallowing it.

No one is blinded by hunger.

Along the way, no matter how busy or tired the parent-teacher conference was, it never stopped working on ideological construction. Now is the time to test the results.

The Qing soldiers knew that these 250,000 people had finally been tempered into a team that could fight.

Along the way, Luo Wanya and Xiaoqi were always walking at the front. They walked the last 20 kilometers with difficulty for two hours.

In the distance, they finally saw a human figure.

Someone ran over quickly, and the first one to arrive was Nangong Yuanyu, followed by Qing Ling, Li Cheng and others who had followed Qing Chen out of the A02 base.

Finally, there are Yangyang.

Farther away, there are hundreds of moving key doors leaning against big trees, all open.

Previously, Keiichi said that they could rest if they walked here and there would be more supplies, but he didn't say who was waiting for them here.

Luo Wanya was stunned: "We were still discussing why you disappeared. Even Miss Yangyang disappeared. It turns out that you have been waiting here to prepare the key door."

"That's right," Yangyang said: "Hurry through the key door, there are people waiting for you behind the door."

Luo Wanya was startled for a moment. He walked towards the key door step by step and stepped over hesitantly.

Just when he was dazed, someone said to him: "Thank you for your hard work."

Luo Wanya turned around and saw that it was Li Shutong!

The boss’s master!

"You...why are you here?" he asked doubtfully.

Li Shutong smiled and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

As he spoke, Li Shutong put his fingers on Luo Wanya's wrist.

breathe!

At this moment, Luo Wanya knew the significance of their journey.

The upper limit of the first three sessions of breathing skills in the Quasi-Tifa is B level. According to statistics, there are already 40,000 members in the parent-teacher association who have reached level B. However, they have not obtained the fourth session of breathing skills and cannot continue to break through.

Qingchen once speculated that compared to the order in which knights directly interrogate the heart as an ordinary person, the method of quasi-ti is to gradually start from the first breathing technique, and slowly allow the practitioner to reach a state that is enough to withstand the fourth breathing technique.

, and then go through the fourth section of the breathing technique to ask the mind, and break through the final bottleneck of the quasi-prescription method.

However, even if the breathing method is gradual, it is still dangerous for Luo Wanya and others to go through the fourth breathing method, because asking the heart is asking the heart, no matter how simple it is, it is still asking the heart.

So, the old man on Ginkgo Mountain threw them into a corner of the world and ignored them, without giving them food, clothing, assistance, and even little communication, allowing them to feel the loneliness and loneliness of that world.

Qingchen took the farthest path among all the shortcuts in the world because his character was born to take it.

Luo Wanya and the others took the path of Zhuntifa because they had put in enough efforts and endured enough hardships, and their hearts were as solid as a rock.

They walked a journey, saw a journey, said goodbye to each other, and gave up a journey. Their lives have already been different.
