"Yu, I'll leave this to you. You can help me think of a safe way to deal with it." Tang Ling was a little tipsy, but not drunk. In the cold night wind, Tang Ling threw a small bag to Yu with a very serious tone. Natural and casual.
Yu took the small bag thrown by Tang Ling, opened it, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "How many secrets do you hide? Do you think I can handle it?"
Under the purple moonlight, in the open bag, a small pile of crystals reflected the moonlight, giving it a misty beauty.
This pile of crystals was more than what the entire Raptors team had obtained. Tang Ling was throwing it out at will and wanted to handle it himself
Tang Ling smiled and did not answer. Instead, he wrapped his training clothes tightly, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and then handed it to Yu: "Want a sip?"
Yu hesitated for a moment, but took it and took a shallow sip. He coughed a few times and felt inexplicably a different kind of relaxation than drinking.
After spending a long time with this guy Tang Ling, it's hard not to be led astray by him.
"I actually don't have much of a secret. If I do have a secret, it's just a little stronger than you think. I mean that's true for myself." It was a very convoluted sentence, just because Tang Ling didn't want to say anything about it. Yu lied.
He is indeed just a little stronger than the Raptors team imagined, and his transformation is not his true basic strength.
After Tang Ling finished speaking, he lit another cigarette. This was his last cigarette this month. As for the previous one, he would use it to 'pollute' Yu.
Seeing Tang Ling's actions, Yu was a little helpless. This kid really had no good intentions, but he still half-leaned on a wooden box and held the cigarette in his mouth calmly.
"I can't exchange these crystals for you for hope points. I will bring them to the family as soon as possible, digest them within the family, and then barter them. As for the origin, I will say that after tonight's mission, I will collect them privately with credit points. of."
"Is there no problem?" Tang Ling had no objection to Yu's handling of the matter. The only thing he was worried about was that Yu would get into trouble.
"Don't be pretentious. If you were really afraid of problems, you wouldn't speak to me." Yu rolled his eyes at Tang Ling. His IQ was obviously higher than that of Auston, and then continued: "Hope Point cannot be safe on the 17th." In addition, most of what the Hope Point can exchange for is cultivation resources, and what most people here value more is life. "
"If you exchange Hope Points for credits through the official website, the ratio is not cost-effective. Therefore, it is not uncommon in Hope Barrier to do something with Credit Points."
"Well, that's good." Tang Ling nodded.
"Then you should think about it, what do you need to exchange for it? Don't think about taking advantage. In such a transaction, you will only suffer a slight loss." Regarding this, Yu has nothing to hide.
"The higher the grade of ferocious beast meat, the better." Tang Ling had already made plans.
"That's not much in exchange." Obviously, the Yufeng family could produce ferocious beast meat, and Yu didn't seem too surprised by Tang Ling's request.
After a simple conversation, the two were silent again. The light blue smoke quickly dissipated invisible in the night wind.
In the cave where the Raptors team was, everyone was already drunk, including several seniors. Only Tang Ling deliberately did not get drunk, and Yu drank a lot less under Tang Ling's hint.
After everyone fell asleep, Tang Ling and Yu Yu came to the edge of the patrol area. He leaned here and looked at the entire ruined battlefield. I don't know when it became a kind of entertainment and relaxation.
"There will be a very quiet period after that. I think after I enter the Babel Tower, the whole team can apply for formal training courses." After a moment of silence, Tang Ling whispered in a vague voice.
"Well, everyone is fine. Once the formal training begins, you won't be really 'left behind', right?" The role of talent in basic training is not so obvious, but once you enter formal training, the role of genetic chain talent It's very obvious.
At this time, the quality of talent will quickly widen the distance between the Crescent Warriors. Yu knew that Tang Ling was extraordinary and had his own secrets, but talent was something he had witnessed with his own eyes and could not be faked.
"No problem, who am I? I'm Tang Ling."
"Yes, Tang Ling has many secrets."
"I don't have many secrets at all. I am Tang Ling who has a lot of burdens."
**
After the mission in the warehouse district, Hope Barrier returned to the same rhythm of life as before.
Fighting, work, tasks, learning, and improvement are the unchanging main colors here.
It was just the day after that night that several teams of ordinary soldiers were mobilized from Security Zone 17 and began to clean up the ruins and very few remaining corpses in the warehouse area, making it look like it was about to be built.
Is it considered a success? Maybe not necessarily, with so many lives and so many Ziyue warriors almost dying there.
Everything depends on the action of Lord Wolf.
Is it a failure? That's not the case, after all, humans in the warehouse area have occupied it and started rapid construction.
Still relying on Lord Wolf's action.
So was the mission in the Warehouse District a failure or a success? People don't know how to evaluate it. Perhaps they are unwilling to admit that as the times continue to advance, the power of individuals is so much greater than the power of the collective.
From then on, will ordinary people be even less qualified to survive
"What kind of problem is this? In many cases, a few people who are out of reach walk in front. When the road becomes clear, a group of people will follow." Su Yao put down the wine glass in his hand and looked at him like a fool. He looked at Tang Ling.
That expression clearly showed a sense of intellectual superiority.
"Where's the evidence?" Tang Ling drank the juice depressedly.
For one precious day in a month, you can return to Safe Zone No. 17, face the battlefield all day long, and discover what a paradise a place with ordinary life and enjoyment is.
The place where Su Yao asked Tang Ling to meet was a bar.
It's a pity that there are not many customers. The boss doesn't say no to strangers and has a very bad attitude.
Su Yao ordered a glass of fine liquor, which was said to be left over from pre-civilization and was called vodka.
He said he would not pay Tang Ling for the drink, so Tang Ling had no choice but to order a glass of corn wine. Unexpectedly, Su Yao did not stop Tang Ling from drinking, but the boss gave him a glass of juice.
"I don't welcome boys with hairless hair to drink here, only juice. If you don't want to, just leave."
Tang Ling had no choice. When everyone was enjoying themselves in the safe area, and even Wei An and Christina were shopping together, why did he come here to drink juice
I hope the drinks and juices produced by the Barrier are not better than those in this dilapidated bar
But Tang Ling couldn't care less, he still wanted to see Su Yao.
"Evidence? In ancient China in Dongshengzhou, there was an era of 'a hundred schools of thought contending'. The light of thought that emerged from the scholars illuminated the entire China, bringing people from ignorance to civilization, from barbarism to knowledge of etiquette. Emphasis on sentiment.”
"In that era, the thoughts of the scholars were far forward, which is amazing."
"And in Guangming State, many scientific geniuses appeared during the Renaissance. Just like God alone sent sunshine to Guangming State, what kind of impetus did those geniuses headed by Einstein bring to the pre-civilization? You Don’t you know?”
"In that era, didn't they also make ordinary people very powerless? Even for such a person, you can't help but doubt his brain structure." After saying this, Su Yao took a sip of wine and patted Tang Ling. shoulder, he seemed very interested in this topic.
But Tang Ling listened a little distractedly. He was thinking of words to ask Su Yao about the secret of 'it'. Su Yao promised to tell him after he entered the first reserve camp.
But Su Yao seemed a little annoyed that Tang Ling was so absent-minded, and slapped Tang Ling on the head.
"Do you understand, kid? A real big shot is to lead the times, no matter how much resistance there is, no matter whether things pay off. Otherwise, no matter how powerful a person is, he will only be embedded in the times. A character cannot become a hero who transcends the times and defeats time." Su Yao was a little excited.
"But, what does that have to do with me?" Tang Ling rubbed his head in dissatisfaction. Indeed, he was just a boy born in a settlement with hatred.
It cannot be embedded in the times, nor can it transcend the times.
Su Yao was silent. He didn't even look at Tang Ling anymore. He lowered his head, picked up his wine and drank it all in one gulp. He shouted, "Boss, have another glass, still vodka."
The boss silently brought a glass of vodka and stamped it on the table with a 'pop' sound. But for some reason, the drink did not splash on Su Yao, but instead splashed on Tang Ling's face.
He even gave Tang Ling a blank look when he left.
"I have a grudge against him?" Tang Ling was unhappy. He lowered his head and took a sip of the juice in the cup. It was made from apples, sour and sweet, and actually tasted good.
"Uncle Su Yao, this time I"
"Tang Ling, do you think you will have a dream this month?"
Almost at the same time, Tang Ling and Su Yao both spoke.
The difference was that Tang Ling had been brewing for a long time and just wanted to ask about the secret about 'it' on his chest, while Su Yao brought up Tang Ling's dream.
The words that had been planned for a long time were interrupted, but Tang Ling was rare and not disappointed, because dreams were also something Tang Ling wanted to explore very much.
But Su Yao obviously didn't know much about this matter, and Tang Ling didn't think of talking too much about it with Su Yao.
However, when Su Yao took the initiative to bring it up, he obviously didn't just want to know if Tang Ling had fallen asleep again.
Therefore, Tang Ling shook his head and said directly: "No, if you hadn't mentioned it today, I would have almost forgotten that I would fall asleep."
"I traveled to a far away place this month, and it cost a lot of money." Facing Tang Ling's answer, Su Yao did not comment directly, but took a sip of wine and talked about something. It seems to have nothing to do with dreams at all.
Tang Ling glanced at Su Yao. This man, who was as tall as a mountain, felt thinner after not seeing him for a month. He didn't know whether it was because he was a little darker, more haggard, or because of the vicissitudes of life. It's thick, so it looks like this.
Tang Ling waited patiently for the next sentence.
Su Yao slowly lit up a cigarette. If someone from the Raptors team were here, they would be surprised why the way he smoked was so similar to that of Tang Ling
But no one here cares about these details. In the rising smoke, Su Yao's deep and deep voice came: "But the result is good. I found a dream seed through various methods. The dream seed is like this. It's called Tang Ling, right?"
Tang Ling's hand holding the cup trembled slightly, and his heart was filled with emotion. He didn't know how to express it and couldn't express it.
He raised his head and said, "Uncle Su Yao, give me a cigarette."
With a 'pop' sound, Su Yao kicked over the stool Tang Ling was sitting on: "Hey, boy. To what level did the First Preparatory Camp improve your smoking skills?"
But while he was talking, a cigarette was still thrown into Tang Ling's hand. It was higher quality than the cigarettes Tang Ling smoked in the First Preparatory Camp.
Tang Ling sat up, narrowed his eyes slightly, lowered his head and nodded, pinching the cigarette between his thumb and middle finger, tilting his body slightly, exhaling a puff of smoke skillfully, and then said as if nothing happened, "Well, it's called Dream Seed."
He had never discussed these details with Su Yao because Su Yao didn't ask in detail.
When Su Yao said it, it meant that he had really traveled thousands of miles to enter his dream.
The deepest love between men is never expressed in words.
"Haha." The bar owner raised his head and glanced at Su Yao and Tang Ling, the two only customers in the bar. In the annoying smoke, they were in the same posture, like two 'Su Yao's, one big and one small.
It was so funny that the bar owner lowered his head.
"According to the information I got, all the dream seeds will be in the same place after entering the dream." Su Yao didn't look shocked at all. In fact, when he heard this fact for the first time, he was extremely surprised.
"What do you mean?" Tang Ling choked on the smoke. What does the same dream mean for many people? It’s hard to imagine! Is this the work of the mysterious shop? Or is it the work of another force? How did you do it? besides
There are too many questions to ask, and even the concept of a place is very abstract.
"Literal meaning. To put it simply, after you fall into a dream, the environment in the dream is the same. This environment does not mean." Su Yao's expression skills are not good. He is trying hard to organize his words to describe this. A very abstract thing.
Tang Ling was very patient. He didn't interrupt Su Yao or ask any questions. He waited.
"Okay, describe it this way. For example, the standard environment set after entering the dream is Safety Zone No. 17. After entering the dream, all dream species will gather in Safety Zone No. 17."
"You will do different things, because the distance and road you travel in the dream are different, but you will all move forward for the same purpose. You may meet, or you may not be together until the end of the dream. We will meet. Do you understand?”
Su Yao has tried his best to describe it.
But as smart as Tang Ling was, it still took him at least half a minute to understand what Su Yao meant.
Doesn't that mean that at a certain moment in this world, all dream species will dream at the same time, and then enter the same dream
This feels like an ancient technique called cultivating voodoos, where all the voodoos are put into the same voodoo cup. Is this what it means
Tang Ling squeezed the cigarette in his hand, and his mood was not fear, but an indescribable, slight excitement.
"I understand." After a few seconds of silence, Tang Ling replied to Su Yao.
"Do you really understand? Did you notice the details in my words? The dream world will collapse one day." Su Yao looked at Tang Ling seriously.
"I can understand when the only king appears, right?" How could Tang Ling let go of such important information? The theory of the king is purely based on Tang Ling's perception of dreams as a huge voodoo cup.
Otherwise, what is the logic for dreams to exist in this form
