Holding a cup of cold water to rinse his face, Feng Qi slowly raised his head.
Looking at himself in the mirror, he saw the cracks of time in the corners of his eyes.
I calculated the time in my mind and found that he was already 54 years old.
He has no special physique in the Sacrifice Line and can only nourish his body through cultivation to extend his life.
However, in the early years, his body borrowed the innate ability of the main timeline and suffered from many diseases, especially the serious deficiency of Qi and blood.
Although he has mastered the ability to absorb energy and blood, this ability is given by special gloves and is not his own ability.
His special physique can help him convert the qi and blood he absorbs into his own energy.
However, the converted qi and blood absorbed by special gloves still contain some impurities, which will have a certain impact on the body.
Today, many problems have emerged.
He slowly stood up straight, used a towel to absorb the moisture from his face, and then hung the towel back up.
Turning around and walking out of the bathroom, he went straight to the training room.
Stepping into it, he looked at the little guy who was exercising in the center of the training room.
He has a straight and slender figure like a benchmark, a healthy wheat-colored complexion, sharp eyebrows and a high nose bridge, tight thin lips, and a pair of blue eyes. He is currently training with sweat.
The little kid back then has grown into a handsome young man.
Seeing him appear, the young man immediately stopped exercising and turned to look at Feng Qi, with a bright smile on his face:
"Uncle Qi, you are here."
Feng Qi smiled, walked to the sofa, sat down, and skillfully picked up the tablet placed on the coffee table.
Looking at the dense information above, he began to flip through it.
The boy also started training again.
After a long time, Feng Qi raised his head and looked at the young man, with a touch of relief in his eyes.
Over the years, the training room has been renovated three times, the training facilities have been replaced several times, and the little kid at the beginning has grown into a teenager.
And he...is also old.
The young man seemed to have noticed Feng Qi's gaze. At this moment, he put down his wooden knife, ran behind Feng Qi eagerly, and began to help him beat his shoulders.
Feng Qi was about to speak, but felt his throat itched and coughed continuously.
Seeing Feng Qi coughing, the boy's expression changed, and he immediately brought a water glass and handed it to Feng Qi.
"Uncle Qi, Grandma Weiwei said that you can no longer take mental soothing medicine, so you should drink more water."
Faced with the young man's concern, Feng Qi did not refute and nodded perfunctorily.
After taking the water glass and taking a sip, Feng Qi had a look of determination in his eyes.
This sacrifice line was only halfway gone. He didn't want to and couldn't fall down at this time.
He was always paying attention to Mu Qing's situation.
Ever since Mu Qing first discovered the corpse of a domain creature disguised as a human, he felt that Mu Qing might have fallen into a trap.
Domain creatures are not stupid, how could they show such clear flaws in front of Mu Qing.
Mu Qing also asked Mu Qing to follow the clues and investigate that this domain lurking creature once lived in Winter City.
This is like a guide, deliberately letting Mu Qing discover the superficial problems and guiding her to pursue the truth.
He had also encountered a similar situation.
He once suspected that the Scarlet Research Institute was infiltrated and controlled by domain forces.
Facts have proved that his speculation is contrary to the truth.
He had reason to suspect that Mu Qing was used as a knife by the domain forces that were really hiding behind the scenes.
The purpose is to use Mu Qing's power to eradicate enemies who have conflicts of interest with them, and there is a high probability that this enemy is lurking in Winter City.
Apparently Mu Qing was not aware of this problem.
The clues she found seemed to be obtained through diligent investigation, but it is very likely that there is someone behind the scenes playing a secret game.
He did not take the initiative to contact Mu Qing to explain this issue.
He didn't understand the situation in Winter City. The man behind the scenes wanted to use Mu Qing to eliminate his opponents, but he was hiding in the deeper secrets and observing the development of the situation, trying to find out the potential forces.
There are still more than 60 years until the establishment of the Dawn Army, so he cannot expose himself for the time being.
As for how to survive for another 60 years, he is confident.
If your body can't hold on any longer, then use genetic medicine to extend your life. If that doesn't work, just take a few more injections. No matter what, you have to hold on until the day when the truth is revealed.
After coming back to his senses, Feng Qi put down the water glass, looked at the young man who was already sitting next to him and said:
"Xiaowen, do you have something to say to me?"
"Uncle Qi...how do you know?" The young man scratched his head in embarrassment.
"I raised you with my own hands. If you stick your butt out, I will know whether you want to poop or fart. You can hide anything from me."
"Hey, Uncle Qi, I want to ask you something." The young man simply stopped pretending and said with a flattering look.
"Tell me, I may not agree."
"I want to go to the Star City West Supply Zone and register as a frontline soldier."
Hearing these words, Feng Qi was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but shake his head:
"Nonsense."
About 13 years ago, the Star City West Supply Area officially opened the main road to Star City and was officially put into operation.
Over the years, resources have been continuously injected into Star City.
The resources of the West Supply Zone are divided into five parts, of which Star City accounts for 30%, and the remaining 70% is divided among the other four cities, and these four cities also contributed manpower and material resources at the beginning of the construction of the Star City West Supply Zone.
As of today, the Star City West Supply Zone has begun to take shape, with more than 2,000 battle groups and sub-groups stationed there, including the 13th branch of the Dawn Chapter.
But Mu Qing did not return.
Feng Qi was not surprised.
When she graduated that year, Mu Qing chose the Winter Supply Zone as her battlefield because the Winter Supply Zone was the battle zone with the heaviest casualties among the major supply zones, and many difficult-to-attack fields were also in the north direction of the Winter Supply Zone.
.
Therefore, Mu Qing will set up the headquarters of the Dawn Chapter in the Winter Supply Area and choose the highest difficulty challenge from the beginning.
It was also the destination of life in Mu Qing's heart.
Maybe she has something to miss in Star City now, but she knows better where her own value lies.
Over the years, relying on the resources produced in the West Supply Zone of Star City, many of the projects originally planned by Star City have been implemented or are under construction.
Among them is the establishment and operation of Dawn Academy.
The first dean of Dawn Academy, Feng Qi chose Lao Wang.
He always felt that one of the luckiest things in his life was meeting Lao Wang, a teacher.
Courage, perseverance, fearlessness... Lao Wang taught him many things and made him deeply love the human race and work tirelessly for this.
The position of a principal is like the helmsman of a big ship. He can rest assured that Lao Wang is at the helm.
After all, he himself is a student taught by Lao Wang.
His thoughts returned to the present, and he frowned slightly.
His original idea was to send the little guy to study at Daybreak Academy after a while, when the new semester started.
Maybe the little guy has learned nothing useful in the school, but experiencing life is also one of the future directions he plans for the little guy.
The little guy is different from him. He doesn't need to tighten himself all the time and think about Star City, the future, the truth, intelligence, etc. all the time.
If you want the little guy to fully integrate into humans, he also needs an environment where he can try to contact other humans outside the Hupo Research Institute, and even make a few friends.
He had contacted Lao Wang a few days ago and was preparing for the little guy to take the entrance exam.
In fact, he is fully capable of sneaking the little guy into Daybreak Academy through the back door.
But there is no point in doing so.
The little guy's own knowledge and ability are completely sufficient to cope with the exam. He is even more knowledgeable than the teachers in the school. Going through the back door is even more insulting to him.
I just didn't expect that the little guy would want to go to the front line and become a field warrior.
"Uncle Qi, you once told me many heroic stories. Many of them went to the front line at a young age, especially before they had developed the cultivation techniques. They used their flesh and blood to block the invasion of domain creatures.
Now that I have the strength to reach the upper gold level, I am fully capable of contributing to the development of the front line."
Before Feng Qi could reply, the young man took a peek at Feng Qi's expression and continued:
"Uncle Qi, you said that the flowers in the greenhouse cannot withstand the harsh environment outside. I want to go to the front line to train myself and let myself grow into a sharp knife in Star City. How can I truly grow up without encountering some setbacks?"
Feng Qi, who was about to persuade him, fell silent when he heard these words.
In fact, with the little guy's current strength, he has already reached the top level of human combat power, so he has no problem becoming a frontline warrior.
About ten years ago, the little guy had already developed a technique that suited his own physique.
And the exercises will become more perfect every year, improving together with the little guy's strength.
What Feng Qi originally wanted was to teach the little guy the originally top-secret flesh and blood cauldron if he really couldn't find a technique that suited him.
The flesh and blood cauldron is different from the flesh and blood sacrifice. It is a technique with no hidden dangers.
The only disadvantage is that it is too complicated. Even if a normal person wants to practice cultivation and spends his whole life exploring it, there is a high probability that he will still get stuck in the starting stage.
But the little guy is different.
His bloodline potential is far beyond what ordinary people can match, and his learning efficiency is even more astonishing.
Lifespan, bloodline potential, and learning efficiency, these three things, the little guy has unparalleled talents, and he can definitely try to cultivate the flesh and blood cauldron.
But the flesh and blood cauldron is of great importance after all.
If one day the little guy, like the Lord of the Mist, discovers the method of "flesh sacrifice" through the flesh and blood cauldron, and at this time the little guy has become a high-level human being and is hostile to humans.
Then mankind will inevitably be destroyed in his hands.
The probability of this possibility is not high, but it is also a real safety hazard.
The little guy's future path is destined to be without his companionship and guidance, and he may one day go astray under the influence of temptation or other external factors.
Fortunately, the little guy has now embarked on the path of creating his own exercises.
This road is indeed difficult, but if you can get through it, maybe the little guy can create a technique that is more powerful than the flesh and blood sacrifice, comparable to the flesh and blood cauldron, or even has a higher limit.
At this time, when he heard the little guy said that he wanted to go to the front line for training, the first thought that came to his mind was to refuse.
Even though the little guy is strong enough to handle many challenges, there are still risks.
But after listening to the little guy's explanation, Feng Qi suddenly found that he seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding.
He found that he positioned the little guy in the future, but never thought that the little guy would need to go through hardships as he grew up.
"Uncle Qi, just promise me, I also want to contribute to the development of Star City."
A flattering expression appeared on the little guy's face, and the hand holding Feng Qi began to shake back and forth, trying to "influence" Feng Qi with words and actions.
Faced with the little guy's repeated requests, Feng Qi did not directly agree.
He began to think about the pros and cons.
Frontline experience can help the little guy grow up quickly, and it can also allow him to get to know a group of comrades who are loyal and sincere. Perhaps setting foot on the front line is more suitable for the little guy's growth than entering Dawn Academy.
But a feeling of resistance still arose in his heart.
This feeling made him feel a little uncomfortable, as if the child he had raised was about to go on a long journey, and he felt worried and reluctant to leave.
But he understood better that the child would eventually have to travel far.
He is training the little guy as the future high-level executive of Star City. Going to the front line to experience the cruelty there will also allow him to better understand the situation between Star City and humans.
This will help the little guy guide Star City to develop in a good direction in the future.
If Star City, this sacrifice line, can withstand layers of external pressure with the efforts of the little guy and other Star City senior officials, he and the little guy will one day be reunited in the future 1500 years later.
With so many thoughts swirling around him, Feng Qi couldn't help but sigh.
"Xiaowen, since you have decided to go to the front line for training, I will not provide you with any living expenses during this period. Everything in the future will have to rely on your own efforts. Once you have made a decision, you cannot go back on it."
When Feng Qi agreed, the little guy had a surprised expression on his face.
He immediately and earnestly began to help Feng Qi beat his legs:
"Uncle Qi, don't worry. I can take care of myself. Remember to read the Star City Frontline Daily every day. There will definitely be news about me on it. I will win glory for you and work hard for the rise of Star City."
Hearing the little guy's assurance, Feng Qi nodded happily.
After a long time, the little guy left and began to prepare for setting foot on the front line.
Feng Qi also took out his cell phone at this time and dialed Lao Wang.
A few days ago, I just discussed with Lao Wang about letting the little guy enroll in Daybreak Academy. Now that the little guy has decided to go to the front line, he naturally has to inform Lao Wang and explain the situation.
After hanging up the phone, Feng Qi slowly stood up.
Physical exhaustion could not suppress the heat in his heart.
He came to the open space and sat down cross-legged, and began to use the breathing method to nourish his body.
There are many hidden injuries in his body now, which are all hidden dangers left by borrowing his natural ability. These hidden dangers even appear in the sea of spiritual consciousness, which often give him headaches, and there is no solution at all.
Fortunately, a little bit of vomiting can prolong life, which is better than nothing.
Now his desire for "life" is extremely strong, and he even feels that if he has the miraculous will of the Lord of the Mist, he can rely on his willpower to be resurrected after death.
With each breath, the spiritual energy particles spread to the internal organs, nourishing the aging body.
Early the next morning.
Feng Qi rarely changed into formal attire, and dispatched a Tiger Soul car to personally take the little guy to the west gate of Star City.
The current west gate of Star City has been expanded, and the main road has become very wide and is connected to the west supply area of Star City. There is an endless flow of traffic transporting frontline resources every day.
In addition, a shuttle bus to the front line has been opened here to transport soldiers to and from Star City and the Western Front.
After getting off the bus, Feng Qi sent the little guy to the waiting area of the station.
The new bus had not yet arrived, and Feng Qi began to tell the little guy what to pay attention to when he was on the front line.
The little guy nodded and listened obediently.
When the shuttle bus arrived, Feng Qi picked up his luggage and sent the little guy onto the bus.
Farewell was imminent, and Feng Qi couldn't help but tell the little guy again to be vigilant and pay attention to safety while on the front line.
Hearing this, the little guy had a bright smile on his face and said confidently:
"Uncle Qi, don't worry, I will take good care of myself, and I will also support you in your old age in the future."
