"Cut off the power!"
"Destroy all consciousness models!"
"quick!"
Wei Chengzhou gave instructions at an extremely fast speed, which made the research director and other staff members all nervously rush to the operating table and start typing out orders.
Colonel Tiebi stared at the screen calmly, staring at Xue Yan.
Xue Yan was laughing loudly on the screen. She no longer used the language outside the fortress, but was speaking loudly and rapidly in a language that Wei Chengzhou had never heard of before, a language that was full of malice, evil thoughts, and filthy smell.
No one knew what she was saying, maybe a curse, or something else.
But after hearing these sounds, everyone felt extremely uncomfortable. Some staff members with weaker constitutions even covered their mouths and vomited. Even Wei Chengzhou felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach and a chill on his back.
"The program, the program has an error." The research director shouted, "I can't delete the model, it's this, it's this!"
"It's stopping us!"
Wei Chengzhou snorted, his star energy appeared, and he punched the data host.
A hole was immediately smashed into the host computer, with sparks flying out of it, causing all the screens on the workbench to go out one by one.
In the end, only Xue Yan's piece was left.
"You can't stop us, you know!"
After saying this in human language, Xue Yan's image disappeared from the screen, the indicator lights on the workbench finally stopped flashing wildly, and all the instruments stopped working.
The research director finally breathed a sigh of relief, then collapsed into his chair as if he had lost all strength.
Wei Chengzhou said in a deep voice: "Check the materials quickly, she can't die yet!"
Several staff members then ran to the hibernation chamber, opened the door, and checked the Black Star Fort General inside.
Xue Yan, who was wearing a Xingyun restraint device, was already in a coma, but the Splitter consciousness that had entered her brain seemed to have disappeared.
After a busy inspection, Wei Chengzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief when he received a safe report.
The research director also checked the data host and reported: "The host is completely broken. The data inside can no longer be reproduced. All will models have been deleted."
"Colonel, how can we explain this to our superiors?"
Wei Chengzhou nodded: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, the research has ended today. I will report this matter to the higher-ups. What you need to do now is to ensure the safety of materials No. 1 and No. 2."
"They are still useful and they play a big role."
After Wei Chengzhou finished speaking, he picked up the communicator on the workbench, put it in his pocket, and left the gap hall.
In his pocket, the communicator suddenly lit up and a strange symbol flashed on the screen.
... ... .
Skyfort.
Upper City District, City Lord’s Mansion.
"General."
On a terrace, the sun was shining brightly, and Yuan Shu, in casual clothes, was playing chess with Feimei.
Judging from the chessboard and chess pieces, it is exactly chess in the adverse world.
This competitive game, after being interpreted and restored by scholars, has become popular in the fortress and even near the Gulf region.
It is promoted as a beneficial game that is intellectually challenging and can cultivate a global perspective.
At this moment, Yuan Shu made a move and won the game.
The female general of Storm smiled and said, "Foster father's chess moves are still so careful that I can't find any loopholes to exploit."
Yuan Shu laughed and said, "You are just letting me go, right? Besides, you seem to be a little off today. Are you thinking about something?"
"Expedition Plan."
Feimei arranged the chessboard and said, "Godfather, on the map we got in the Netherworld, could the highlighted area be the location of the 'grave'?"
Yuan Shu's face turned serious. "It's possible. Otherwise, the church wouldn't take it so seriously. Look at them. They have a bishop and several silver crown knights."
"They are so serious about this. The church is quite interested in the 'tomb'."
When Feimei mentioned the church, her eyes turned cold. "17 years ago, it was because of them that my brother couldn't come back. If my adoptive father hadn't adopted me, maybe I would..."
Yuan Shu waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about the past. 17 years ago, the church claimed that the Black King was active in the Reverse Realm, but excluded us from it. As a result, we were unable to catch up with a lot of intelligence, resulting in many casualties."
"Your brother, Wade's son, and many other lives have been lost. The church should be held responsible for this!"
"But the church's influence is too great. Even now, with the support of the Golden Council, we are still unable to stop them from participating in the expedition plan."
Feimei slightly exerted force on the chess piece, leaving a faint fingerprint on it immediately: "But it's different now. Even if we can't stop the church from getting involved, they definitely can't dominate like before!"
Yuan Shu nodded: "Of course."
Feimei looked up again and asked, "Godfather, if, if that is really a grave, what should I do?"
Yuan Shu said in a deep voice: "First, we must not let the church enter the tomb. At least, we cannot let them enter the tomb alone. In the absence of supervision, no one knows what they will do."
"Second, you must not enter the tomb. Based on similar incidents in other worlds, I suspect that the ruler of the old black people is in the tomb. Those things will summon their own 'skins' in various ways. The higher the rank of a person, the more likely they are to be targeted. I don't want you to take risks."
"Third, I have asked Cao Gang to transfer his capable subordinates here. By then, he will secretly join the expeditionary force. If there is any need for investigation, let him die. As the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, you must not take risks lightly."
Feimei nodded without hesitation and said, "I see. Who are Commander Cao's subordinates?"
Yuan Shu smiled faintly and said, "Wei Chengzhou is a veteran of our Qingtian Fort. You can trust him."
Fei Mei suddenly realized, "It turned out to be him. I know. Wei Chengzhou, Shen Mozhu and other military veterans are all loyal to the fortress."
"Well, I'll feel more at ease if you let Lao Wei go with you. Also, don't be too stressed about this matter. I think with your ability, you can definitely handle it."
"In the next few days, you should relax and adjust your mood and body so that you can better command this operation."
Feimei nodded and set up the chessboard: "I'll play another game with my godfather, then I'll go back and rest."
Yuan Shu laughed and said, "You just want to get back at the opponent, but I won't let you. It depends on your own ability."
"certainly."
Feimei showed a rare smile, and when she smiled, the whole terrace seemed to be brighter.
... ... ..
The third day of the Starlight Festival ended
That morning, Tianyang came to the Church of the Lord of War.
He wanted to find He Wenchi to explain the situation and tell the priest that he was about to participate in an expedition and might not be able to return to the fortress in a short time.
He knew that the church would also participate in this action, and perhaps the cathedral would also be involved, but before that, it would appear more sincere if he told the church about his next whereabouts.
When I walked into the church, there were no believers praying today. There were only a few priests gathered together, and I didn't know what they were discussing.
Seeing Tianyang, they all turned around and drew the holy emblem of the Lord of War with their hands to show their respect.
Tianyang walked through the church and entered the parish at the back. After consulting several priests, he found He Wenchi.
He Wenchi was in the garden, talking with the bishop with silver hair, and laughing happily from time to time.
Next to the bishop, there were two figures wearing holy robes. Their faces were hidden deep in their hoods, so it was impossible to observe their features, and even their gender was difficult to tell.
The only thing that is certain is that these two people are not simple. Although they do not release any aura, they have their own extraordinary aura.
Those should be the two Silver Crown Knights.
Tianyang did not approach, but nodded slightly to the bishop from a distance.
He believed that Gu Yun had discovered him long ago. 17 years ago, he was already a Level 6 Judge. After so many years, he has become a bishop and should have the strength of Level 7 or even Level 8.
Such a person does not even need to wait for someone to appear in front of him, and he will be aware of the changes around him.
Sure enough, Gu Yun nodded with a smile, talked to He Wenchi for a few more words, and then left in another direction with the Silver Crown Knight.
When He Wenchi was the only one left, Tianyang stepped forward. He deliberately made a noise to let the priest know of his arrival.
"Good afternoon, Tianyang."
He Wenchi turned around and took the initiative to greet him: "Let me guess, are you here to say goodbye?"
Tian Yang smiled and nodded: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from you, Priest."
He Wenchi seemed to be in a good mood today. He chuckled and said, "This is obvious. It seems that you are one of the members of the expeditionary force?"
"We, the Night Walkers, will send several teams to participate, and my team happens to be on the list. So I think we should tell the church first. It seems that we will not be able to return to the fortress for a long time."
He Wenchi gradually stopped smiling and said, "This will be a difficult journey. May the glory of the Lord always shine upon you so that you will not be lost in the darkness."
Tianyang said sincerely: "Thank you for your blessing."
He Wenchi raised his hand and gestured: "Do you mind walking with me?"
"Of course I don't mind."
Tianyang naturally followed behind him, following the black-robed priest at a distance of half a body length behind.
He Wenchi said with a sigh: "This expedition is jointly participated by Fortress and our church. The last time we had such cooperation was 17 years ago."
Tianyang's heart moved slightly.
17 years ago
Back then, the church used the Black King as an excuse to forcefully enter the Reverse Realm and pushed the Skyfort aside. So, there can be no cooperation, right
He Wenchi said softly: "Tianyang, didn't you ask me last time why the church couldn't trust the fortress?"
"Now I can answer your question."
"That's because, 17 years ago, something happened in this fortress..."
