Chapter 213 'Spiritual Immortality' (Thanks to the leader of Qingningzi)
After the welcome ceremony of the Dawn Chapter, Feng Qi officially took office as the deputy leader of the Dawn Chapter.
Under Mu Qing's arrangement, he also gradually began to get involved in various affairs of the Dawn Chapter.
For example, the scheduling of group missions.
Every day he will receive the latest task list compiled and sent by the Chapter Secretary.
It contains the latest tasks released by research institutes in major cities, as well as joint operation tasks on the front lines of various supply areas.
Then arrange the task allocation according to the actual situation and the strength and ability of each team.
In addition, the allocation of resources also falls under his management.
For example, the purchase of supplies, payment of soldiers’ salaries, family support payments, update and maintenance of the group’s weapons depot, daily income and expenses, etc.
It takes a lot of energy to keep everything organized.
Fortunately, he has a group secretary to assist him in his work, so he won't be too busy to be exhausted.
As he gradually became familiar with the business capabilities of the battle group, he also began to truly come into contact with the cruel side of the front line.
Mu Qing often takes some members of the battle group to other supply areas to carry out joint operations, and as the deputy leader, he will often follow the team captain to the field for battlefield training.
Or command training.
During this period, he saw what real frontline war was like.
The enemy is also far more cruel and vicious than imagined.
During this period, he saw with his own eyes a warrior who was cursed by a domain creature and his body was gradually festering. He had his body covered with psychic bombs and rushed into the enemy group like crazy.
At the last moment before his death, he had no heroic words in his mouth. He just yelled "Mom, take care of yourself" with all his strength, and a fresh life passed away like this.
The most brutal war, in which one-third of the soldiers died in the end, the veterans took the lead in the charge and refused to retreat.
In fact, they all know clearly what the consequences will be if they don't retreat. It's not that they don't retreat, but that they can't retreat.
Behind him is his hometown and relatives.
The battle ended with heavy losses.
On the way back to the manor in the transport truck, a bright full moon hung in the sky.
The captain of the team lost half of his body, covered in blood and bandaged, leaning on the railing of the car, holding a cigarette in his mouth and said to him nonchalantly:
From the moment I stepped onto the front line, my fate was already determined, and I had no regrets.
That scene touched him greatly. Along the way, he looked up at the bright moon and thought a lot.
People today cannot see the moon of ancient times, but the moon of today once illuminated the ancients.
The same is true for the future.
The ideal in their hearts is actually very simple. They hope that the bright moon in the sky can still rise as usual in the future.
Faced with despair, he saw hope in the soldiers.
The sun rises and sets, and there is always dawn.
This is also the firm belief in the heart of every Dawn Warrior.
That time when he returned to the manor, he dialed the numbers of the families of the fallen soldiers one by one. Listening to the cries on the other end of the phone, he couldn't help but feel sad.
He had experienced this scene when he was young.
The pain of losing a loved one is unforgettable.
In the following days, he also began to actively promote the construction of the war group.
The Dawn Chapter has nearly 10,000 members who need to be coordinated and arranged, but he has accumulated many years of experience in this area in the previous timeline.
At that time, the situation of Dawn Organization was more difficult than that of Dawn Chapter.
After getting familiar with the business at hand, the next work begins to become easier.
He also began to put forward his own ideas and constructive suggestions.
For example, the expansion work of Dawn Manor.
As the number of warriors in the Dawn Regiment continues to increase, the residential areas of Dawn Manor are obviously no longer enough. If the number of warriors continues to increase in each residence, it will undoubtedly affect the quality of life of the warriors.
Therefore, he decided to allocate funds to expand the interior of the manor, reclaim the uncultivated land to the north, and extend the area of Liming Manor vertically to build a new residential area in Liming.
Mu Qing expressed support for his proposal.
He also said that the resources within the battle group can be mobilized at will, do not restrict your own ideas, and boldly implement them.
Mu Qing's trust gave him no worries.
In the next three months, he first went to the Chapter General Assembly and obtained the approval document for the expansion of Dawn Manor. Then he sent the third team to purchase resources and began the expansion of the Dawn Chapter.
The professional construction team hired also arrived later and joined the expansion work.
During this period, he also launched a round of "questionnaire surveys" within the Dawn Chapter to inquire about the needs for housing improvements and other issues.
A series of decisions made to improve the quality of life of soldiers have won unanimous praise from the soldiers.
In the harsh and extremely cold environment, the expansion project is in full swing.
In less than half a year, Dawn Chapter's C and D residential areas were officially completed.
Each soldier was given a house of his own.
On this day, Feng Qi, who had been busy all day, was sitting in the office, looking at the information and dealing with the recent task scheduling arrangements.
At this moment, a familiar profile picture appeared on his communication software.
Clicking on the profile picture, he found that it was a message from Lin Ran, whom he hadn't contacted for a long time.
During the chat, he learned from Lin Ran that the research on mental attack techniques had yielded results.
He named this technique "Spiritual Immortality".
According to what Lin Ran said, this spiritual attack technique was built according to several concepts he proposed. It is extremely efficient in practice and follows the ultimate spiritual growth attack route.
But there is also a fatal flaw.
If you practice deeply according to the direction of this technique, your control over your body will continue to decrease.
Lin Ran even suspected that after cultivating to the extreme, the nearly substantial spiritual power would break through the shackles of the physical body and turn the cultivator into a pure spiritual being.
Using the body in exchange for strength seemed to Lin Ran that there was something wrong with his research direction. Next, he decided to continue to modify this mental attack technique and improve its weak points.
After checking the relevant content of "Spiritual Immortality" sent by Lin Ran, Feng Qi decisively rejected Lin Ran's suggestions for subsequent modifications.
What he wants is for Lin Ran to possess an ultimate mental attack technique, and only an extreme mental attack technique can defeat the wily Lord of the Mist who has lived for a long time.
At that time, Lin Ran was parasitic in the spiritual consciousness of the Lord of Mist and had no physical body, so this hidden danger was not considered a hidden danger at all.
After chatting for a long time, he closed the computer.
Standing up, he said hello to Lu Yue, who was sitting not far away.
Lu Yue understood the idea, stood up immediately, followed him out of the office, then went downstairs and left the office building.
There is heavy snow outside, and the polar night is not dark. You can see very clearly even without lights along the way.
The bright stars in the sky are the best guiding lights.
Heavy snow piled up, and he and Lu Yue walked towards the house step by step along the way.
"Lu Yue, let's have a supper together tonight?"
"Okay, you cook." Lu Yue, who was holding Jianlan in his arms, nodded immediately.
Hearing Lu Yue's answer, Feng Qi grinned, but did not refuse.
He had eaten the food cooked by Lu Yue once, but he, who never wanted to waste food, chose to throw it away, which showed how unpalatable it was.
While chatting, they approached the residential area.
At this moment, Lu Yue suddenly ducked in front of him, the sword in his hand suddenly unsheathed and hovering in the air, the tip of the sword pointing straight ahead.
"Come out!" As he spoke, Lu Yue pointed his sword forward.
The sword suddenly shot forward, creating ripples of sword energy.
The sound of swords resounded through the night sky, and a familiar figure with blue skin appeared from the darkness.
The third eye on its forehead suddenly opened at this moment, and a strong mental shock wave suddenly rolled up the snow on the ground and crashed into Jian Lan.
The two different forces converged, making a "buzzing" sound, and invisible ripples visible to the naked eye spread in circles.
boom!
After a muffled sound, Lu Yue and the blue-skinned assassin were simultaneously pushed back several meters by the shock wave.
Seeing the assassin appear again, Feng Qi's heart sank.
This is the fourth time.
Moreover, the assassin's strength this time was obviously stronger than before, and he was not weaker than Lu Yue in the short confrontation.
At this moment, the blue-skinned assassin suddenly turned his attention to him, and an invisible shock wave suddenly hit him as the third eye on his forehead blinked.
Fortunately, Lu Yue was prepared early. The sword in his hand turned into seven handles in the air, condensed into a sword array, and flew to him to block the mental shock wave.
"Brother Qi, you go first."
Hearing these words, he nodded immediately, knowing that staying here would only drag Lu Yue down.
At this stage, his Demonic Dragon Rune transformation is no longer enough to deal with such an enemy.
If he had the innate ability, he would be able to fight, but he obviously couldn't do it on the sacrifice line.
Thinking of this, he immediately ran to House No. 001 where Mu Qing was.
But what he didn't expect was that after taking a few steps, a strong sense of crisis surged into his heart.
The crisis insight given by the demon dragon made him decisively dodge sideways.
Then a blue-skinned figure appeared where he had just been standing, and an invisible mental shock wave stirred up the snow in front of him and flew towards the hot spring lake.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yue, who was not far away, decisively gave up his entanglement with the assassin in front of him and ran towards him.
The seven-handled sword turned into one in the air, drew a strange arc in the air, pulled out a glowing sword energy trajectory, and suddenly flew away the blue-skinned assassin No. 2.
This time it was caught off guard and one of its arms was cut off.
The sharp sword energy penetrated its body, causing it to scream in agony.
Feng Qi did not sit still and waited for death. He took this opportunity and decisively rushed to Mu Qing's house again.
At this moment, a sharp blue dagger appeared from one side and stabbed his chest at an extremely tricky angle.
At the critical moment of life and death, Lu Yue in the distance once again drove Jianlan closer.
Ding!
There was a clear sound of metal collision, and the sword across his chest resisted the thrust of the dagger.
Although the enemy's attacks have been blocked, with one against three, the situation is not optimistic.
The blue-skinned assassin in front of Feng Qi disappeared in a flash and appeared behind him.
Assassin No. 1 in the distance also attacked Lu Yue at this time, trying to create opportunities for his companions.
Facing the attacks from both sides, Lu Yue did not panic. He split Jian Lan into two and controlled Jian Lan to attack in different directions.
At this moment, there was a loud noise in Mu Qing's residential area.
Immediately afterwards, the building door flew out, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of him at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye. It arrived faster than Lu Yue's sword and grasped the blue dagger.
Looking at Mu Qing who was wearing rabbit pajamas, Feng Qi let out a long sigh of relief.
Now that Mu Qing has arrived, the danger is gone.
The blue-skinned assassin who was caught with the dagger screamed and tried to break free, but its strength was simply not enough in front of Mu Qing.
The No. 2 blue-skinned assassin standing not far away blinked his eyes and sent out mental shock waves in an attempt to help his companions escape.
The violent mental shock wave hit Mu Qing, not even making her shake at all.
"Kacha!" The dagger in Assassin No. 3's hand was crushed by Mu Qing, and then he punched it in the chest.
The violent power came from the enlightenment surface, and the sudden burst of power blew the blue-skinned assassin No. 3 into pieces and flew everywhere.
Immediately afterwards, Mu Qing appeared in front of the blue-skinned assassin No. 2 not far away and punched him again.
boom!
The ground trembled beneath his feet, and the body of Assassin No. 2 exploded and shattered like No. 3.
Finally Mu Qing came to Lu Yue's side.
Seeing the tragic death of his companion, the blue-skinned assassin No. 1 let out a shrill scream. He could not hide the fear in his eyes, but he still decisively sent a mental shock wave towards Mu Qing.
This power hit Mu Qing, but was absorbed by the jade-colored aura emerging from her body.
Another punch came out, and the blue-skinned assassin No. 1 exploded instantly.
The pieces of flesh and blood were dissolved by the power that continued to pour out, and finally disappeared.
Seeing Mu Qing's terrifying strength, Lu Yue's eyes widened.
He found that Mu Qing was stronger than before.
The assassin who he found extremely difficult could not last a single round in Mu Qing's hands.
Such a gap made Lu Yue unconsciously tighten his grip on the sword in his hand.
"Aqi, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Feng Qi walked up to Mu Qing and said.
Hearing these words, Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief:
"These realm-transcending creatures are becoming more and more rampant, and they even dare to sneak into Dawn Manor to carry out assassinations."
Hearing these words, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Apparently Mu Qing mistook these blue-skinned assassins for realm-transcending creatures.
This situation often happens in frontline supply areas.
For those domain-transcending creatures that can leave the domain field, the first choice for destruction is often the supply area.
This is why there are always patrols and security personnel in the supply area.
He hesitated for a moment on whether he should tell Mu Qing the truth or not and then chose to give up.
Originally, he planned to get Mu Qing's protection in the coming days and let Mu Qing protect his Zhou Quan.
But during these days in the Dawn Chapter, he understood the significance of Mu Qing to the entire Chapter. It would be really unfair to other Chapter members if she was tied to him.
This will also affect the subsequent development and future direction of Dawn Chapter.
So he didn't choose to tell the truth.
After saying goodbye to each other, he and Lu Yue returned to House No. 002.
Sitting on the sofa in the living room, he began to think about a question.
The three previous blue-skinned assassins came one after another to assassinate him, but this time three of them came at once, which was obviously not in line with the previous speculation.
The only thing that is consistent with the speculation is that the strength of the blue-skinned assassin has been significantly improved again.
But their origins have always been a mystery.
For this, he could only hope that the Scarlet Research Institute's follow-up research would allow him to learn some important clues.
Then he started thinking about a new question.
How can he continue to improve his strength so that he can protect himself?
Now that he is in the Dawn Chapter and protected by Lu Yue, his safety can be guaranteed even if Mu Qing is not around.
But the enemy will become stronger and stronger, and Lu Yue may be helpless by then.
As for Mu Qing, who has been running around in various supply front areas all year round and only returns occasionally, it is impossible to take care of him all the time.
While thinking, he suddenly thought of "Spiritual Eternal Life" that Lin Ran had delivered today.
Practicing this ultimate mental attack technique is not affected by physical changes, and it can also allow him to obtain a strong increase in mental power in a short period of time.
As for possible shortcomings... exchanging physical body and lifespan for strength is not impossible.
Thinking of this, he decided to start trying to practice.
