Chapter 915: Prepare

"'Truth' is not about being old!" Shang Jianyao was not surprised at all and retorted on the spot.

Liu Chuan turned his head and looked at this guy angrily.

Shang Jianyao did not show weakness, and there was a silver-white electric light in his eyes.

After the two looked at each other for a few seconds, Liu Chuan seemed a little unbearable and slowly looked away.

"You can't!" Shang Jianyao said something.

This act of adding fuel to the fire made Liu Chuan suddenly turn his attention to him again.

At this moment, all the lights in the basement flickered at the same time, and soon they brightened like a round of small suns.

"My eyes!" Shang Jianyao shouted, raising his hand to cover his face.

Other "New World" powerhouses also reacted similarly, either covering their eyes with their hands or drooping their eyelids, daring not to look directly at such a strong light.

After a short burst, the light returned to normal, and a low and vague male voice sounded in the ears of Shang Jianyao and others at the same time, as if from another world:

"Everyone, the unrest is about to begin."

Shang Jianyao opened his eyes and saw a tall, thin shadow floating on the left wall of the basement, but there was no one around.

"Are you 'Truth'?" He interrupted Sombra with no reverence at all.

"Black Shadow" was silent for a while and said:

"I'm."

Shang Jianyao said "oh oh" and didn't interrupt.

He looked around and found that Liu Chuan and the other person lowered their heads and behaved very respectfully. Although Flora and Barnard were not so exaggerated, they also showed enough respect.

They were all focused.

The tall and thin "black shadow" swayed on the wall and said:

"When the signs of turmoil appear, you will unite and go to the tower, and don't waste time on the way.

"Faced with the lackeys of 'Charlie' and 'Professor Li', if we can't solve it quickly, we will leave some people entangled with them, and the rest will continue to move forward.

"When the time comes, I will help you open the gate of the tower. After you enter, you only need to destroy the core facilities there, and you can see the passage back to the dust.

"The power of the old people reverberates in the tower, which will bring you great danger, but this is your only chance.

"You can never escape from here unless you can't be distracted during the turmoil!

"Everyone, just wait here patiently for the signs of turmoil."

As soon as the words "truth" fell, Shang Jianyao immediately raised his right hand:

"I have a question.

"When there is turmoil, why can't the seniors be distracted?"

"The Shadow" didn't answer him, because after saying that, it expanded rapidly, getting bigger and bigger, and disappeared into the basement.

Seeing this, Shang Jianyao said with a look of disappointment:

"Run so fast!

"It's like we are the beasts of the flood."

Liu Chuan glared at him sideways, but did not speak.

Shang Jianyao didn't look at his face at all, and asked himself again:

"What are the signs of unrest?"

At this stage, Liu Chuan has nothing to hide, and said calmly:

"The 'New World' has noticeable upheavals at irregular intervals.

"It starts with towers and spreads outwards, including earthquakes, storms, collapsed houses, etc."

"Not fixed? Then how do you know that there will be turmoil recently?" Shang Jianyao asked when he didn't understand.

Liu Chuan quietly took a breath and said:

"This is the message of the great 'truth' coming out of the tower, every time with great accuracy."

"Okay." Shang Jianyao had an expression of "reluctantly trust you".

Then, he pulled the topic back to just now:

"Why didn't 'Truth' stay and answer a few of our questions

"To do such an important, critical and dangerous thing soon, everyone is very nervous, and there must be a lot of problems."

I can't see where you are at all uneasy... Liu Chuan saw that several nearby "New World" powerhouses who knew gray earth language nodded slightly, agreed with Shang Jianyao's statement, and explained quickly and calmly:

"Great beings don't care about these little things and don't respond to doubts."

"Who said that?" Shang Jianyao immediately retorted, "When I prayed to Zhi Sui before, Zhi Sui would answer."

"How did you answer?" Liu Chuan's expression tightened.

Including Flora and Barnard, some "New World" powerhouses turned their attention.

Although it happens from time to time that Zhisui answers the prayers and questions of believers, which is generally called issuing oracles, but these people in the basement are currently planning to rebel against the tower and try to escape. A word is inevitably a little scary.

Shang Jianyao said "positive color":

"Although they didn't speak, I could clearly interpret what they meant."

"What do you mean?" Liu Chuan asked.

Shang Jianyao replied "seriously":

"Let me go."

Now he likes to joke around.

"..." If Liu Chuan hadn't paid the price for his "weak character", he would definitely punch Shang Jianyao in the face now.

"Pangea", Room 14, Floor 647.

Long Yuehong and Bai Chen sat in the office of the "Old Tunes Group", looking a little idle.

Of course, this is only on the surface, in fact they are racking their brains to consider some issues.

"We'd better practice every two days to maintain a good physical and mental state." Long Yuehong said actively.

And his subtext was that if he didn't do this, he might not be able to receive the telegrams from Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao through Genawa in time.

In that case, the two people in the underground building might miss the best opportunity.

Of course, Jiang Baimian had considered this issue when formulating the plan for separate actions before, and believed that he could not pin his hopes entirely on telegram communications, which had too many twists and turns and could not respond in time.

Another channel for delivering information is that voice recorder.

The principle is that after Shang Jianyao enters the "new world", he can complete the positioning through his own body and the breath and strength remaining outside.

That is to say, he should be able to let the recorder play by himself under his control like Xiaochong and Wu Meng did to remind his teammates.

But it takes a certain amount of time to break through the barrier of the "new world", transmit power, and give ideas. There is an obvious delay, which is incomparable to the speed of incontinence.

And together with the telegram, this is timely enough, at most ten minutes delay, so that Long Yuehong and Bai Chen will not miss the opportunity.

However, there are also some unknowns. Jiang Baimian doesn't know where Wu Meng's level is, and he can't be sure that Shang Jianyao will definitely be able to do the same thing when he enters the "new world".

Therefore, Long Yuehong did not dare to ignore the two information channels of telegraph and voice recorder.

"Okay." Bai Chen nodded, "I will report to Vice Minister Xi Yu."

Long Yuehong immediately looked at the computer and phone on the team leader's desk and sighed sincerely:

"Actually, we are no longer members of the 'Old Tune Group'..."

He and Bai Chen are closer to the back office.

"As long as the group hasn't disbanded, it will always be." Bai Chen solemnly replied.

The Eighth Research Institute, behind the tunnel gate.

Jiang Baimian was wearing a military exoskeleton device, sitting against the wall with his eyes closed to keep his spirits up.

She had just given Shang Jianyao a nutritional injection, and she planned to seize the time to rest for a while, waiting for the turmoil in the "New World" to begin.

At that time, she will try to enter the mysterious building in the core area of the reality "New World".

The phantasm it manifests on the outside is a tower!

"New World", in the basement of that special building.

While chatting with Flora, Barnard and others, Shang Jianyao suddenly said, "Oops":

"Oops, I forgot one thing!"

"What's the matter?" Flora, who was sitting in the chair, asked with concern.

Shang Jianyao, who was standing there, replied:

"Before the turmoil starts, I still have some things to deal with, and some friends need to be notified!"

For example, he also wanted to go to the gray and earthy courtyard, and have a chat with the woman who was sobbing in the dark, to see if the turmoil could inspire corresponding changes and let her say more things, such as , go to the place where Yan Hu and others are imprisoned, remind them that the turmoil is about to start, and be careful who imprisoned them to take the opportunity to do something, for example, ask the friendly people such as Jacob to see if they also want to escape the "new world"...

"This matter is strictly confidential." Liu Chuan, who heard Shang Jianyao's words, emphasized.

Barnard explained tremblingly:

"There is a group of people who choose to obey the management of the tower, in exchange for the right to return to the dust frequently, and the lackeys like 'Deputy Dean' and 'Charlie' also have followers.

"If we want to take advantage of this turmoil to do something to spread the word, the difficulty of things will skyrocket, and we may even be punished by the elders before the turmoil starts."

"Oh..." Shang Jianyao glanced around in disappointment.

Seeing that everyone who could understand the conversation just now expressed their disapproval, he had no choice but to say:

"All right."

The next second, his thoughts jumped and he asked another thing:

"What kind of punishment will I receive for passing on the secrets here to the outside world, from whom?"
