Ruorong opened her eyes, her blue eyes sparkling with the light of an imaginary fairy tale, especially the sparkle in the center, which was as sharp as a needle, drilling into Hicks' eyes and directly piercing his heart.
Hicks took a step back because he felt guilty.
He didn't dare to imagine the feasibility of what Ruorong said, and he didn't have the consciousness to become a part of betting on everything - to keep Wu Qi.
He can accept the regret of losing Wu Qi without burning his mind and seeking to change the outcome before the regret comes. If even he can't do that, then 99% of the people in Noah City can actually rely on Wu Qi, but Wu Qi can't expect that group of people to pay anything.
It's really not a bad idea to wait. Even from a third-party standpoint and with a transactional mindset, Xinjing, where Wu Qiqiu went, is actually a place worthy of waiting for him to trade.
Xinjing is indeed a dragon's den and a tiger's den, full of risks and crises, but only by going there can Wu Qi have further room for development!
Hicks was startled a second time by his own thoughts. He looked at Ruorong with uneasy eyes. Dong consciously hoped to see a look that would help him stabilize Donglai, but Ruorong always had bright eyes. The deep regrets were swept away like a haze.
"Could it be that Master Ruorong has already thought of the third level from the beginning!"
General Hicks' legs shook slightly. He has no doubt who is the most ruthless person in Noah's city. If that person's ruthlessness transcends the selfishness of most people and considers being selfish for Wu Qi, then send Wu Qi to him. There is nothing wrong at all with leaving that choice.
The "future branch" Lord Ruorong gave him just now can be said to be a completely wrong branch. Not only is tens of thousands of lives bet on it, it may not succeed, but even if it succeeds, Wu Qi will still owe Noah City everything. The people are trapped in it, and the future and prospects are much less feasible. On the contrary, it turns out that there are advantages and disadvantages to wronging Noah City, but the advantages to wronging Wu Qi outweigh the disadvantages.
Thinking of that, Hicks finally followed Ruorong's thoughts. Ruorong took great pains to "tell" him in this way, and there was no doubt that he regarded him as the most trusted person, and he and Ruorong had a tacit understanding with each other not to tell the truth.
"Lord Ruorong, can he ask a question?"
"Just ask."
"Wu Qi, which choice does he prefer?"
There was no sadness or regret in Ruorong's expression, and Wu Qi's sadness at being far away from him had also evaporated.
Her tone returned to its usual calmness, and she said calmly: "In an uncertain future, no one would want tens of thousands of people to die for themselves."
That neither answers nor denies the answer. And Hicks believed that with Wu Qi's character, he would never even think of the third level Ruorong thought of.
Although Ruorong and Wu Qi are both at the fourth level and are one of the closest siblings in this world, that is the biggest difference between Ruorong and Wu Qi.
"Wrong, he remembered that Wu Qi left something for him."
Ruorong took out a jade pendant from his arms and used all his energy to detect the jade pendant. There is no special information on the surface of the jade pendant, except for the "Made by Solu" imprint on the back of the jade pendant.
But if you put your spirit deeply into the outside of the jade pendant, Ruorong can feel a tough barrier. It's as if the invisible barrier is fully resisting the intrusion of non-master's spirit.
"No, it's a special feature of the space system."
Ruorong said in surprise. With her knowledge, she directly understood whether the jade pendant was an inorganic product that was perfectly integrated with the third-level alien virus, similar to the long knife, and it was not the "mysterious weapon" that Wu Qi called. Once Xuan Bing awakens his strange ability, he will "recognize his master".
But fortunately, the blood connection between the jade pendant and Wu Qi was not deep, and Ruorong was close to Wu Qi, and she had some Wu Qi's aura in her body subtly. With her efforts, the spiritual power of the fourth-level "divine consciousness" finally broke through the invisible tough barrier and broke into the "mustard space" outside the jade pendant.
The mustard jade pendant suddenly released a blue-red light, and Hickston consciously hid in the distance, followed closely by a series of ping-ping-pong-pang-pang-dang sounds.
What was released by the jade pendant was a bunch of dark weapons that Ruorong and Hicks had never thought of! In just one or two seconds, the carpet in front of the desk was covered with weapons. Otherwise, if Ruorong controlled the "mustard space" in time, the whole office would be filled with the weapons in five seconds.
The dark weapons piled up like a hill include as many as eighteen swords, guns, swords and halberds, and they all have some strange and weird shapes; and without exception, they all have one or two cracks on them, as if Wu Qi had used "gravity" to specially control them. It will be strong again after being glued.
The blue light of the jade pendant in Ruorong's leg gradually extinguished, and there was a letter and a thick red blood potion.
"Sister Ruorong Qi,
He is about to go to Xinjing, where his life or death is uncertain, and he will not be able to implement his long-prepared plan in Noah City. After thinking about it, I decided to leave that plan to Sister Ruorong and I would implement it on his behalf - if I felt that his plan was necessary after reading it.
He collected the eight hundred things that Apocalypse Abyss called "mysterious weapons" from the military tombs in Apocalypse Abyss. They all have the ability to absorb the third-level alien virus and the third-level blood. When the accumulated energy reaches the point where the other alien virus ecology takes shape, it will be impossible for Xuan Bing to awaken.
Is it similar? That's right, the long sword he inherited from my sister is actually the Black Mysterious Weapon. Ru Ming absorbed a variety of fourth-level blood and broke through the boundaries to become the New Moon Long Sword, with a completely new shape and appearance.
Without going off topic, his plan is divided into three stages. In the first stage, the Xuan Weapon should be tested among the elite soldiers of Noah City. Once the Xuan Weapon is successfully awakened, the holder will have an additional special power, and the combat effectiveness will increase in a straight line; And eight hundred mysterious weapons are equal to eight hundred future third-level pioneers.
In the second stage, the power of atavism can be added to advance appropriately among the soldiers. Now that Chris is no longer here, the scientific research institute in Noah City can work hard on Gao Yuan and Qi Qi, and they have the jar of fourth-level ancestral blood he provided that can protect the body for a long time.
Why had he been reluctant to do that before? It was because the success rate of atavism was uncertain. He didn't want to do that kind of experiment with the elite soldiers of Noah City; it was very likely that he had mistaken the power of atavism at that time. Yuanji didn't understand it thoroughly, and he had to cross the river by feeling the stones. Naturally, he couldn't rest assured if he made the wrong move. But it turned out that he had reached the fourth level and saw the truth of the power of atavism through the "road" revealed by the wilderness god. Considering the severe future situation of Noah City, he made that decision after considering all aspects. "
