The wise man casually stretched out his hand, and in an instant, the three war fortresses all collapsed, and a war that should have caused bloodshed was averted without a trace.
Even most federal congressmen did not know about this matter. Only the newly appointed Speaker of the Federal Parliament learned the news from the Sage.
As for why he knew... it was not because of his high rank, but because when the Sage came down from the top floor of the Senate, he was the only one working overtime.
So the current Speaker of the Parliament was drafted into service and was sent to drive a flying vehicle with the Sage to the scene of the rebel riot.
From then on, the Speaker of the Parliament had been very cautious, because he knew very well that the position he took over did not represent the supreme power of the Federation, but was merely the spokesperson of the Sage.
The wise man has the ability to easily destroy the entire human race.
So... how could she possibly plan such a ridiculous conspiracy
Even if she really planned it... would she be angry after the plan was exposed
These are all things that the Speaker of the Parliament needs to consider, so he hurried to meet the Sage in order to know the Sage's attitude as soon as possible.
If the wise man really gets angry about this and completely turns the table over... the entire human civilization will suffer!
"So soon?" Ling Ling was slightly stunned, "Is it... the news just now?"
"You have heard of it?"
The president of the parliament was shocked. He had just received the news from an insider, but he knew that it would soon be out of control and would leak out, so he was in such a hurry.
If the wise man had known in advance...
Judging from her expression, it seems... that it doesn't matter
I have to say that this is good news, but it also carries a sense of powerless sadness.
Yes, for someone with extraordinary powers who can override everything, what does a mere rumor mean
Perhaps the entire human civilization is just a toy in her eyes.
"Yes, I heard about it."
Lingling nodded, thinking that this was not just hearsay, she was at the source of the rumor!
"Your decision is..."
The Council President asked hesitantly.
"What decision?" Ling Ling asked curiously, "If they want to spread it, then let them. It's good for the citizens to have more interesting topics to talk about in their spare time."
"Um, this..."
The Speaker of the Parliament had already thought of countless possibilities in his mind, but this was the only one he had not thought of.
After hearing the rumors against her, the Sage felt no distress, no anger, and not even a single emotion. He even made a little joke out of fun.
"You may be approached by a reporter..."
It is the official media that communicates with the federal top leaders, so the Speaker of the Parliament is well aware that after tomorrow's hearing, media reporters will come to interview the Sage.
The wise man has never had the habit of refusing media interviews, but few reporters really dare to come to him.
On those rare occasions, the pressure was so great that the reporters could not bear it and they fled without even asking complete questions.
It was just an ordinary interview before, but this time... the content of the interview is even more chilling.
"As long as they don't run away again, it will be fine." Ling Ling shrugged and said, "Any other questions? Mr. Chairman, I have some personal matters to attend to."
"No, no, no, no more..."
The Speaker of the Parliament said repeatedly, he knew that since the Sage could say such words to him, it must be urgent.
Private matters mean that he should not pursue the matter further as it is not something he should know.
So when he heard the wise man say this, the Speaker of the Parliament did not dare to delay too long and immediately fled away.
After dealing with the Speaker of the Parliament, Ling Ling's face darkened slightly. She was more worried about the safety of little Celis than these rumors.
If the aura that made her feel threatened just now was not directed at herself, then the one in danger now would be little Celis.
But the thing is...
Why would someone target little Celis
You know, although my old friend Celis did offend a lot of people and even made unforgivable mistakes, this happened thirty days and nights ago.
Although today's little Celis is also her descendant, so much time has passed that little Celis has almost no relationship with her ancestor.
Apart from the long, slightly curly golden hair, Lingling inherited nothing else. Even for her job, she had to swallow her pride and privately ask the speaker of the parliament for an internship position.
This was also one of the few times that Ling Ling exercised her privileges, and she did so in the name of the Speaker of the Parliament and did not actually show up in person.
"No matter who it is... they can't lay a hand on her."
There was a hint of danger in Lingling's eyes, and she turned and walked towards Celis' dormitory.
Thirty days and nights have passed. The memories of the past have become blurred, the wheel of human civilization rolls forward, and all the moments of history have disappeared.
Only she is still staying in the past, desperately pursuing and waiting for a hopeless possibility.
Little Celis is one of the few things that makes her feel that she is still alive in the present. She is the sustenance of her deceased friends and one of the few memories worth remembering.
Chapter 261 Dream
After several months, Luo Xue stepped onto the suspended tower again. Looking at the dazzling array of things in front of her, she couldn't help but feel as if she were in another world.
Of course, it was only a few months for her, but this world had already gone through three thousand years.
Three thousand years, the lifespan of a low-level Nascent Soul is about three thousand years, which is enough for the entire world to achieve a technological leap. If it were not for natural disasters and the limitations of the natural conditions of this world, this leap would be even more obvious.
But... it was still too shocking for Luo Xue.
The previous suspended tower was like a clumsy iron tool from the Middle Ages, with a scourge engine that far exceeded the technology tree as its core, but the outer shell it used was an ancient tower structure. The combination of the two was more like a steampunk style.
The current suspended tower has lost its appearance as a "tower" and is now a moving island in the sky. Its size far exceeds the ancient tower ruins.
The reason why it is still called a tower is just a habitual name.
Su Yiyao, who had never seen these things, didn't think there was anything new about them, nor did she have the same feeling of vicissitudes of life as Luo Xue. In her opinion, this was just a paradise.
After arriving at the 1324th suspended tower via the gravity elevator, Su Yiyao sensed that the spiritual power mark had left the city. Judging from the route, it should have been taken by aircraft.
Since these more than a thousand suspended towers have corresponding navigation routes, in order to avoid problems, the public aircraft of each suspended tower also have fixed routes.
After some investigation, it was found that it would take at least one day to reach the tower where the spiritual power mark was located.
Even if Su Yiyao could fly directly over there, it could only shorten the time by half a day at most, and it would still be difficult to get there in the first place.
However, having come to this point, Luo Xue is no longer in a hurry.
In this suspended tower, she had already gotten a little understanding of everything Ling Ling had experienced during her long years as a sage, and for some reason she felt like an old mother seeing her daughter finally grow up.
Although this "daughter" is now at least several hundred generations older than her...
It’s just... everything that happened at the ruins of the No. 1 ground tower has gradually begun to ferment, and Luo Xue has heard bad rumors about Lingling on the road more than once.
Under the deliberate guidance of some people, the wise man who saved the world gradually turned into a villain who tried to subvert the entire human race with conspiracy.
Although most people do not believe this statement, the seeds of doubt have been planted. Everything is heading in a bad direction and will collapse in an instant with just enough help.
Compared to seeing Ling Ling, Luo Xue was more worried that Ling Ling would get caught up in this storm.
In her understanding, Lingling was still the little girl who needed her dedicated care, simply because they had spent the most difficult seven years together in the wind and snow, which was far more intense and profound than the changes in the past few months.
Su Yiyao didn't have such worries, because she had never seen Ling Ling before. She only knew that the woman in the black dress she saw with her own eyes was not easy to deal with, and these petty fights were not worthy of being dealt with at all.
Following the guidance of the compass, Luo Xue and Su Yiyao set out on the journey to the No. 1 suspended tower.
... ...
At the same time, No. 1 was suspended above the tower.
The light of eternal day enveloped this glorious and prosperous heavenly city. During this time that should have been night, it was actually a long day.
There were few pedestrians on the busy streets. Occasionally there were a few people passing by, all of them dragging their tired bodies listlessly - it was obvious that they were all workers who had worked overtime and returned home late.
However, Celis was in a good mood. This was her first time to go out with the team leader to collect materials, and it seemed that she had dug up some incredible news.
Team leader Xixi even came over and told her specifically that she would add a note to her internship performance and guarantee that her performance in the unit would be as good as possible.
There is just one very strange thing. The team leader seems to be very interested in Sister Ling, but he doesn't dare to let Sister Ling know that he is interested in her.
Because these words were said after she separated from Sister Ling, Team Leader Xixi also asked Celis some things about Sister Ling. Unfortunately, Celis herself only had a vague understanding of the matter and could not answer many of the questions.
Despite this result, Team Leader Sissi was not angry. After hesitating for a while, she asked Celis to follow her to interview the Sage tomorrow.
This is a huge opportunity!
Although Celis had no idea about this wise man who boasted that he could create the world, she knew that he was an extremely powerful figure, more powerful than any other figure she had ever met.
Being able to get the opportunity to interview her means that I can accumulate achievements very quickly. I believe that it won’t be long before she can become a formal reporter and become the person I most admired when I was a child.
Celis was thinking about these things as she walked towards the dormitory, humming a cheerful tune on the way.
But not long after walking, Celis suddenly saw a shadow appear at the corner of the empty street in front of her, and it seemed that someone was standing behind the corner.
She subconsciously slowed down her pace, wanting to wait for the man to cross the street first, but the other person did not move at all.
At this moment, Celis realized that something was wrong. She took a few steps back and saw the shadow coming towards her around the corner at an extremely fast speed.
Celis widened her eyes and without any hesitation, she turned around and tried to run away. At the same time, she raised her hands and tried to shout loudly to attract other people's attention.
But... before she could shout out, a pair of slender and tender hands gently covered her mouth.
"Hmm..."
Celis looked back in horror, only to see a pair of helpless and familiar eyes.
"Little Celis, what are you crazy about?" Ling Ling let go of her hand and said helplessly, "It's me."
"It's Sister Ling."
Celis said embarrassedly that she thought he was a bad guy.
In fact, it is really difficult to encounter any criminals in such a place. After all, this is the core urban area of the No. 1 Suspension Tower.
Not to mention eternal day, even in the middle of eternal night when the crime rate is the highest and it is pitch dark everywhere, the core urban area maintains a high frequency of guard patrols.
Ling Ling was also helpless. After approaching Celis, she felt the familiar sense of crisis again. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, she hid secretly nearby.
But she didn't expect... Celis was more perceptive than she thought, and she actually tried to call for help directly in this situation. Lingling had to show up and cover her mouth first.
However, it is not easy to tell Celis directly about this matter, because it is useless even if she tells it. For an existence that can make Ling Ling feel like facing a formidable enemy, no matter how vigilant and worried Celis is, it will be of no use. It is better for her to know nothing.
"But Sister Ling, haven't you already gone home..." Celis asked doubtfully.
Every time they got together before, Sister Ling would stay with Celis until she got impatient, but this time she left in a hurry and Celis didn't understand why.
And now it suddenly appears...
"How long has it been since we slept together?" Ling Ling suddenly asked.
After hearing this, Celis thought for a moment and said,
"It seems like... six years? We haven't lived together since we went to junior college..."
From school to work, Celis seemed to have rarely gone back home. On the one hand, Lingling often came to see her, and on the other hand, the dormitory was in the core city, which was much more convenient and comfortable than the peripheral city where Lingling lived.
"I miss you a little bit. I don't seem to have paid much attention to your life over the years." Ling Ling ruffled her hair while keeping an eye on her surroundings. "Tonight... let's talk."
In order to avoid a crisis, Ling Ling knew that she had to stay next to Celis to be safe.
"Okay, okay!" Celis nodded, but seemed to have thought of something and said hesitantly, "But I have important work to do tomorrow..."
"Aren't we going to have an interview tomorrow... Wait, are you..."
Ling Ling originally thought that all the media were focused on the interview with the sage, and the interns could take a break, but she didn't expect Celis to mention that she had a job and it was an important one.
Then there is only one possibility left.
"Yeah," Celis raised her head proudly, "I! Was also chosen by Team Leader Sissi to go see the Sage together!"
"... ..."
Ling Ling was silent for a while and had a strange expression on her face.
But soon she shook her head and sighed, "Okay, okay... Let's not talk a lot, just a little bit, and treat it as a long-awaited bedside chat!"
“Yeah!”
Celis seemed very happy. Unlike the exhaustion she felt after rushing to finish her manuscript last time, she was in a very good mood now. She wanted to pull Sister Ling aside to gossip with her.
