Underneath Fries' rough face, there is actually a sharp and decisive mind. Because of his sharpness, he captured a lot of detailed information, but because he did not need to make a quick decision at the moment, these detailed information were like flying mosquitoes on spider silk.
, I can’t bear to leave.
"Tsk, what the hell are you doing?" Fries complained, and then communicated with Liu Fengming through the internal channel, "Do you know what they are talking about now?"
"Weren't you the closest just now?"
"It's far away now."
The heavily armed Dark Blue Walkers were doing a good job of guarding and controlling the outside, so why did they squeeze into the crowd to join in the fun?
Moreover, be it a certain god or An Baizhan, they all have extraordinary realms. Even if they are not opened, they will automatically interfere with surrounding information, making it impossible to monitor them.
After all, Frith could only rely on Liu Fengming, a local snake...well, and Huaicheng's leaky military and political system.
Liu Fengming did not continue to share information, but instead asked, "What did you hear when you got closer?"
Fries said "hehe" twice, "I heard An Baizhan talk about the 'Anxia Line'."
Zhao Xi sighed, "It's the same old tune again. I'm afraid he has mentioned this matter eight hundred times."
"Eight hundred times" is definitely an exaggeration.
The key is not how many times he mentioned it, but that An Dongsheng has a high status in the military. For the sake of the face of Northwest Optimus Prime, even if all parties are just coping, they must send out several exploration teams, combat camps, etc.
Run around the route, collect relevant information, and formulate a reply with technical support or something...
In the end, the relevant motion was rejected on the grounds of "insufficient conditions".
Unfortunately, Frith and his team's "Wilderness Patrol Combat Camp" are the hard-working "data-making machines" behind this kind of superficial exchange of articles and rejections.
Was it done? It was done.
Does it make sense? No.
This is so fucking hurtful.
"If the people in Huaicheng are willing to agree, we won't be dragged over to be bodyguards halfway." Zhao Xi continued to complain, "Are An Baizhan coming here in person to directly capture Huaicheng? Those who are participating in the official reception in front of him, he
How many do we need to kill? When the killing spree begins, should we run? Kneel down? Or just watch the excitement?"
Other people in the channel also joined in and said, "You might as well worry about whether Boss Luo will get in trouble..."
"For these people?"
Fries coughed hard, "An Dongsheng said this, what did Boss Luo mention?"
Liu Fengming replied, "Regarding the 'No. 1 Cave'... it is mainly about the previous incident in the 'Poison Swamp Area'. It means that it has caused trouble and everyone should bear with it."
Frith laughed. "Are you so polite?"
The "Poison Swamp Area" in Huaicheng became "Cave No. 1", which was indeed Ronan's fault. At least the previous "Blood Ring Fortress" exercise caused the "migration" of many types of aberrations in the Great Golden Triangle, which was the direct cause.
However, Liu Fengming, a local snake, has something to say: "The Huaicheng Army wouldn't dare to comply if they were a bit shameless. In recent years, the city's westward expansion has turned this area into a wasteland. If Boss Luo hadn't smashed this place,
It's like letting the 'Poison Swamp District' and the 'Big Golden Triangle' chase us westward... Isn't that glorious?"
"Speaking of which, 'Cave No. 1' is located to the east of this wetland, right?" Zhao Xi looked at the itinerary, "Why do we still have to go around to the north?"
"It's in the northeast. That's the outer defense zone of Huaicheng Satellite City, which is the closest to Xia City. Isn't that where you came from?"
"Now do you know how to tell the difference between you and me?" Zhao Xi hummed twice, and then sighed, "It's hard to look back on the past, and my youth was lost in those weeds."
While we are talking, we have finished visiting this scenic spot. In fact, we just want to take a look at the current development situation in the eastern part of Huaicheng...
Anyone who knows something about Huaicheng's strategic direction will feel that it is unlikely that Huaicheng would propose this "scenic spot" on its own initiative.
Fries drove the Deep Blue Walker to move first. "Move, move, cheer up, we are about to leave the city. Huaicheng's close defense zone is not a safe zone."
Zhao Xi complained, "Boss Luo and An Baizhan are both here..."
"So you want to challenge their sharp eyes? They will know the color of your fart!" Friese yelled in the internal channel, "At this time, if anyone is in trouble, I will just put him to death
Throw it into the swamp and feed the crocodiles."
The internal channel was silent for a while, but Zhao Xi still couldn't hold back his mouth, which was seriously polluted in Lake City, "I don't think the two of them like this description... Damn, they are together and talking!"
The second half of the sentence saved Zhao Xi.
It was also at this moment that the on-site staff, various media, and the onlookers could clearly see that in front of a group of high-ranking officials and dignitaries coming down from the observation platform, the middle-aged general with a burly figure and mixed black and white hair took the initiative to move towards him.
Taking a step aside, he approached the young man dressed casually and leaned slightly to speak.
I don’t know how many overt and covert shots captured this moment.
Frith didn't have the intention to care about Zhao Xi's bastard remarks. He subconsciously thought that it was probably a natural body movement to smooth out the height difference.
After the photo is frozen, I don’t know how many weird speculations and interpretations will arise.
However, the person involved will most likely not care.
The parties involved really don’t care about the outside world’s interpretation. Their communication is direct and serious, and there is still a little bit of “misunderstanding”.
"I thought you would mention the 'Anxia Line' just now as a response."
"I thought you would wait for a more formal occasion to talk, or take the initiative to talk about some 'collectibles' or something like that. After all, it was you who took the initiative, right?"
"...It's true, I take it for granted."
An Dongsheng is 20 centimeters taller than Ronan, with a tall and majestic figure. This may be the clearest impression he gives to the outside world. In addition, whether it is appearance, voice, or other gestures and movements, he lacks
Memory point.
Ronan had seen some of An Dongsheng's video materials before, but now it's quite difficult to compare them with real people.
However, that won’t happen in the future.
After the close and head-on contact, without the cover of the extraordinary realm, Ronan used the "Character Card Design Rules" and "Life Ring Distributed Large Model" that he was already very familiar with, which was almost a way to get a glimpse of the "rule difference"
, after observing Andong Shengyitong, even though it is difficult to clarify the category of his "life ring" due to the existence of "self-logic", we can still get a rough idea.
He discovered that An Dongsheng was a normal to somewhat strange guy.
Anton Sheng is a typical Mesozoic extraordinary species.
The so-called "typical" are those who were born or grew up in a "distorted" and "high-energy" environment after the war, like the blood monsters and tigers, and were continuously exposed to the energy radiation of the abyss area, the extreme area and the "solar hell", and their talents
He excelled, practiced hard, and entered the transcendental level in the 1980s.
But if we look into it more carefully, this "typical" is different from others because his growth path is too clear and clear...
Too accurate.
His physical side is his strong point, but he has not overcome the "Bufa Judgment" - this is normal, and no natives of the earth have overcome it.
After reaching the untouchable point, it was the ability on the spiritual side that gave him a lift. It was roughly similar to the interactive coupling of the "God Wheel" and the "Body Wheel", using the power of the soul to drive the "Buzhou Mountain" of the physical body and crash into the abyss.
, Jiyu, set up a humanoid combat platform.
This is a bit like Ronan, rather than the blood demon or tiger, relying more or less on the power of distortion.
And this is exactly the most reasonable evolutionary path in theory under the earth's environment, regardless of the subsequent troubles of the "kingdom of gods".
The most reasonable!
It cannot be said that there were no glitches in the process, but in the most critical period of practice, he did avoid all the pitfalls and all the negative effects of the distorted environment, and chose the path that was most suitable for him and the current situation.
The “transcendent path” of the environment.
Ronan felt that if he was trapped in this side of time and space forever in the future, he would not make any progress in the future, but he did not have to worry about the prying eyes of the "God Kingdom of All Heavens" and the "Six Heavenly Evils", so he began to accept apprentices and teach them step by step, teaching them wholeheartedly.
After training, what you end up teaching is nothing more than "An Dong wins second".
Well, I use a darker and more negative mind to speculate.
In this complicated society, when you reach a certain position and height, the cleaner you are, the more likely you are to have someone to rely on later.
The strength of "reliance" is directly proportional to the position and height.
Under this logic, Anton Sheng, who is ranked "10 of Spades" but is recognized as having the strength of the top 16 people, is an important figure in the military and "Bamboo Dragonfly", but whether it is the military or "Bamboo Dragonfly"
, cannot be used as a "reliance" with such specifications.
Ronan could only think of three and a half such people or forces in the local time and space and surrounding planes.
The first three are Li Wei, Liang Lu and His Majesty Emperor Wu. Needless to say.
As for the remaining "half", Ronan counted on "District 13", that mysterious place that can be linked to the "Thoughts Star Cluster".
After thinking about this, Ronan couldn't help but sigh.
He hoped that Antongsheng's situation would not be any of the "three and a half" mentioned above.
In the past twenty years, An Dongsheng was nailed to Anseong and resisted the penetration of mutants into East Asia, which can be said to be a great achievement.
Ronan should trust this "hero", but when he first met him, he felt that just like his "extraordinary path", it seemed clear, but it was terrifying to think about it. Of course Ronan knew that there are those extremely pure heroes in this world.
The characters exist, but that kind of understanding should be based on a very in-depth understanding and the tempering of the waves.
At this stage, it is really difficult to identify a trustworthy ally when they first meet.
Well, it is an ideal thing to want to settle things once and for all when we meet for the first time.
Now Ronan feels more and more that a large-scale physical project like the "Anxia Line" really has its unique role.
picture
This kind of super-large engineering project requires tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people to work on it, which is the minimum. How many procedures, how many links, and how many types of resources must be gradually passed, promoted, and invested. It is carried out in this super complicated way.
Cooperation is destined to require long-term negotiation and mutual adaptation. If we can finally achieve it together, we will be a qualified "ally". No matter how bad the subsequent cooperation is, it will not be too bad.
Moreover, as long as such a project is successful, even if everyone turns against it in the future, the corresponding resources will be put to practical use and it will always make a splash.
The guy who can always call for the promotion of the "Anxia Line" project should have a certain bottom line... right?
After some unnecessary courtesy, the group finally got on the minibus for transportation.
An Dongsheng and Luonan sat side by side, separated by an aisle.
Just as he sat down, An Dongsheng turned sideways, half-leaned over, and took the initiative to talk to Ronan. "Then next, let's talk about 'collection' and... District 13?"
Ronan stared at this "perfect model" and wanted to ask directly if your "Purity Route" came from the "Thirteenth District"?
However, facing An Dongsheng's dark brown eyes that showed no obvious malice so far, and He Yueyin, who had been silent but paying close attention to them at the back of the carriage, Ronan finally smiled.
"It's up to you, host or guest, let's talk about the defense area near Huaicheng."
As he spoke, he ignored some people's complicated emotions towards his use of "guests as they please". Ronan looked out the window again, looking at the outside of the highway they were driving on, the vast and desolate stretch of land extending to the east limit.
Ruined plains.
And the few Dark Blue Walkers flying and accompanying them, spraying blue flames, are the most eye-catching embellishments on the dilapidated plains.
"Hey, the boss is here."
Zhao Xi, who happened to be accompanying us on this side, was a little excited.
In the internal channel, Frith continued to ask questions that were not in compliance with disciplinary regulations: "Major Liu, can that minibus also leak air?"
Liu Fengming said "Hmm", "Wait...it's very long."
Two seconds later, he sent over a recording. It was relatively quiet, with a slight but even noise floor. It was probably recorded at close range in a minibus. Ronan's voice was quite clear.
"...The reason why General An and I made an appointment to meet in Huaicheng is because this is the center of the livable zone in East Asia. It is convenient for everyone to come here. I took the airship this time, and the journey was smooth, which proves that the two cities
The control of the middle area is still very effective, unlike the one that arrived here from Ticheng, which was seven hours late and the passengers had to burn incense. When I go back, I will probably take the land route to further verify it."
Fries gasped when he heard this, "Hey, what's going on?"
After all, Ronan is not a professional politician, his words are not mature enough, and some of his "hints" are too obvious.
And there is another, and more straightforward, "Xia City has pushed the wilderness safe zone to the east of Mengshan Mountain, but that was a period when Xia City only had a transcendent species, President Ouyang. Now, His Majesty the Emperor Wu is there, and I
I spent some time thinking about expanding the relevant scope, forming a safe zone around the Mengshan Mountains, opening up the northern and southern lines, and including the west of the peninsula into an area where humans can live normally...
"The Mengshan Mountains are a problem, and the Northern Gulf is also a bit troublesome. So Chairman Ouyang and I discussed expanding the deployment scope of the Lingbo Network, finding a type of available fulcrum, monitoring the abnormal populations in the relevant areas, and orderly expelling and killing them.
, forming a controllable ecology. If everything goes well, the safe zone will be enough to border our Huaicheng defense zone, so that it will really be connected.
"...Yes, it's good to be connected. By then, won't the area near the defense area also be a safe area? Xia City is still too crowded. Everyone is about the same. They can't fly up or dig down. The living space is really limited.
Therefore, we still need to develop horizontally, seek space in the wilderness, and expand as much as possible.
"There are inconveniences both in the sky and on the ground. Land transportation and rail transportation are very important."
Frith was still thinking about the taste and even wanted to listen to it a second time, but Zhao Xi couldn't help but yell in the channel
"Does Xia Cheng know about Boss Luo's 'policy program'?"
Liu Fengming responded in a deliberately calm tone, "In fact, the previous safe zone east of Mengshan was really conquered bit by bit by the Xiacheng branch. It is also one of the most smoothly operating mechanisms of the ability user association in the world, and it is the same as Xiacheng's.
The military and political forces are very closely integrated and relatively healthy...Now that His Majesty the Emperor Wu and Boss Luo are both extraordinary species, there is no problem in saying so."
"Really? The Xiacheng Security Zone and the Huaicheng Near Defense Zone are 'bordered', 'bordered', 'connected', is that okay?"
"Theoretically no problem."
Frith sneered and continued, "The problem is that Boss Luo and Anton Sheng are in the east and west, and they are echoing each other. In the front, they talk about the 'Anxia Line', and in the back they talk about the 'safe zone'. What other 'land route' fulcrum is there?"
'Lingbo.com'... Tonight, many people will not be able to sleep when they go home."
"No need for tonight. Look at the person in the fourth row of the car who is on the phone. It seems to be the mayor's assistant? He's probably going to cry."
It's definitely "crying"
It’s an exaggeration, but in the cool weather of autumn, in the most suitable body temperature in the minibus, it is really embarrassing to have beads of sweat on your forehead, and even to scratch the window glass.
.
Zhao Xi felt inexplicably happy, but he still didn't dare to confirm, "So, the boss and An Baizhan, the two of them came here with a tacit understanding?"
"Nonsense, the tacit understanding is for sure, the main thing is at which point there is a tacit understanding."
"It's unclear, land transportation, rail transportation... Boss Luo doesn't even bother to pretend to be, 'Anxia Line'! Darling, has An Baizhan surrendered? Otherwise, how could he invite the boss to come out to the platform?"
Fries turned his head and looked over in surprise, "Is that what you think?"
"if not?"
"...it seems reasonable."
The lofty imagination of some people will not lead Ronan to consider calmly and realistically.
About forty minutes later, the mighty motorcade arrived at the Satellite City Near Defense Zone, which was not a "visit point" for official receptions. From this time alone, it can be seen that the Satellite City in the east of Huaicheng is no longer in name only. The so-called "Satellite City Near Defense Zone"
", it has basically been attached to the main urban area of Huai City, and there is almost no depth at all.
Even though the news had been received in advance, some superficial work had been done, and some soldiers had even been transferred from other defense areas, the defense layout here was still at a level that even a layman could not fool.
It is not surprising at all that there is such a "Satellite City Near Defense Zone" since the "Poison Swamp Zone" can be attached to that location.
However, when the noisy convoy came over, the place was actually quite peaceful. There was no clear boundary between the "near defense zone" and the wilderness. There were only a few birds whose size and species could not be distinguished. They were hovering in the sky and quickly left.
.
"The defense zone is indeed about to become a safe zone."
The cat-eye secretary, who was not very sensible and not professional enough, laughed in the empty camp area, her laughter was high-pitched and could be heard at hundreds of paces.
She was still dressed similarly to yesterday, but had changed the color of her coat. Her long waist and long legs, which were originally very eye-catching, seemed to be radiating deadly radioactive elements, causing people around her to rush out of her way.
"handsome!"
There is no objective element in what Frith said.
He finally found an opportunity to strike up a conversation with his ideal type, and was about to stride forward when Liu Fengming stopped him and motioned for him to look to the other side.
The young god was waving to him.
Ronan and An Dongsheng were standing together, He Yueyin and Adjutant Yu were a little closer, and the cat's eye was a little further away.
As for the Huaicheng military and political leaders who were supposed to have a "happy exchange" with them, during internal deliberations, they accidentally distanced themselves, which could be called "discourteous".
But when Freese took Liu Fengming and Zhao Xi to the other side and stood there, with the armored giant lying in the middle, it was impossible for them to make amends even if they wanted to.
So they could only get together under the pressure of the suddenly heavy, curse-like concept of "Anxia Line", confirm it over and over again, discuss it back and forth, trying to figure out a line that they could understand.
Clear enough clues.
But for a moment, how could this be possible?
"Lieutenant Colonel Frith, the commander of the roving combat battalion in charge of summer heavy train line exploration; Major Liu Fengming, a native of Huaicheng, has served in many powerful departments... Sorry, General An, we have to discuss the 'Anxia Line'
For specific questions, I need some information support from them."
Ronan introduced relevant personnel to An Dongsheng, and did not mind at all exposing the fact that he did not know much about the project itself. "I'm not familiar with it, but I think the direction is fine; the details are very torturous, but sometimes the details are
The losses must make way for the general direction, and the relevant technical issues should be left to the professionals - this is my attitude."
When you talk like this, you sound like a "pilot captain".
Antongsheng raised his hands to his forehead, responded to the salute of Frith and others, and then responded to Ronan, "Isn't Mr. Luo also a technician?"
"Thank you General An for your affirmation. However, technicians know better that technologies are divided into different categories. Li Wei and I are both technicians and researchers, but our directions are different. I want to study the evolution of life and civilization. Currently, I am good at the spiritual side, but
The person on the physical side also has the motivation to learn and make progress; while the person opposite, although he also has research in this field, probably prefers to bury the pit with technology in order to obtain short-term huge profits."
Ronan casually changed the topic again, looked at An Dongsheng, and suddenly smiled, "In a sense, General An is also a technician. What is your research direction?"
"It's like my 'collection', I've been working hard on that."
Ronan raised his eyebrows and glanced at He Yueyin and Adjutant Yu, before returning to An Dongsheng's face, using this rather exaggerated gesture to show his surprise.
This answer can be said to be quite candid.
It didn't say "Thirteenth District" explicitly, it just didn't say it explicitly.
"Big chapter double update series.
This chapter is to thank Rong Pangpang 1234 Alliance for the update (33, there are still 18 chapters outstanding."
