Light Barrier

Chapter 484

"Each 【Energy Boat】 has its corresponding number..."

"If you want to leave Beizhou, you must have Central City's permission..."

Gu Shen repeated these two sentences silently in his heart.

Regarding the identity of "073", in fact, there is not so much confusion after getting along with him this year. This guy is most likely surnamed "Lin", and he has a very high status in Beizhou.

There are only a handful of people who can drive the 【Energy Boat】 to trade in Dongzhou.

Theoretically, finding the travel records corresponding to the date... could lock the identity of "073", but Gu Shen had no such plan.

The deal of the year.

It's not just the material transactions between Huazhi and Beizhou.

It is also a trust transaction.

For Gu Shen, it doesn't matter who "073" is. What matters is that he is a member of the Ancient Literature Society and is willing to provide help.

"Without further ado...let's get going."

Gu Shen came to his senses.

He pointed at the giant boat hovering in front of him, smiled and spoke.

Azhaer smiled and nodded. She raised her head, a silver light flashing in her pupils.

A ray of spirit is transmitted...

The huge airship descending from the distant sky made a dull roar.

Beizhou's 【Energy Boat] is linked to the owner's spirit... Through the authentication and identification of the [Deep Sea】 network, various commands can be issued. Even if no one is sitting in the cab, it can still fly, hover, and Simple instructions for landing.

It's just that the more complicated ones require precise control by the driver.

"Rumble, rumble—"

Gu Shen finally knew why the energy boat could not land without the permission of the various continental parliaments.

Because the movement of this "big guy" is really amazing.

Really like a giant whale.

Amidst the roar, layers of turbid smoke and dust continued to vibrate from the top of this barren hill.

"Swiss, swiss, swish!"

next moment.

Azhaer's 【Frost Kill】 domain expanded, and the billowing smoke turned into pure ice crystals.

The stern of the 【Energy Boat】 rotated open, and layers of automatically extending ladders landed on the top of the mountain.

"Please come on board."

Azhaer shook his cloak, bowed slightly, and made a polite gesture of invitation.

Boarding a boat is called "boarding" in Beizhou.

Gu Shen looked a little strange.

Is it so complicated to board an energy boat... No wonder "073" didn't land.

"Normally...we wouldn't 'get on board' like this."

Azhaer smiled and explained: "【Energy Boat] is a weapon of great strategic significance and is usually not used. Often a medium-sized energy boat can be equipped with a team of three hundred people. Those who board the boat All members wear the 'external armor' developed by Archduke Zhuxue... This kind of armor is also driven by [source energy】 and can provide good lift-off capabilities. Generally, Beizhou soldiers can choose it at a position below 300 meters. Self-propelled 'boarding', the sides of the hull can be opened freely like fish fins, providing a large number of combat landing entrances and exits."

Perhaps...this is why 【Deep Sea】 chose this structure.

Compared with the traditional wing type, the hull structure can quickly release the internal strength of the ship.

Gu Shen had already imagined what a medium-sized 【Energy Boat】 would look like when it arrived on the battlefield. With the left and right belly open, it would take up to thirty seconds to completely unload the three hundred warriors inside the boat.

Gu Shen boarded the energy boat.

The area here is wider than I thought, except for the cockpit, which is the preparation area.

"As an 【Apostle], I usually don't use [Energy Boats】 to rush on the road." Azhaer said apologetically: "This energy boat was temporarily borrowed from Archduke Zhuxue, so I have to make you sit in the co-pilot's seat. .”

"fine."

Gu Shen smiled and shook his head.

He noticed that there was a pair of spare red battle armor hanging in the energy boat.

"This is the external armor."

A'zha'er introduced, "'External Armor' is the full name. People in Beizhou don't call it that. Soldiers usually call it Source Armor... This is based on the difference in the level of the backup energy source, and Source Armor also has corresponding levels. The hanging armor on it It is a third-level source armor, which can carry up to the release of source matter from a third-level transcendent."

Gu Shen nodded... It seems that Beizhou's research in this area is mature enough.

He indeed felt the existence of hidden energy in these hanging external armors.

The source material is compressed and then stored in a close-fitting suit.

Is this the wisdom of war?

Gu Shen circled around in the energy boat and finally stopped. He stopped in front of a pair of battle armor and asked softly: "Azha'er, can I try it on?"

"certainly."

Azhaer smiled and said: "The 'external armor' is very malleable and can be worn by anyone. You can give it a try."

Gu Shen chose the "Third-Level Source Armor" in front of him.

He pulled it gently. It was made of something like "rubber", but it was indeed surprisingly flexible. I'm afraid even a fat man of 300 pounds could wear it.

"After putting it on... there are two ways to 'knock together'."

A'zha'er said: "Spiritual power is in contact with the energy core. There is a spiritual link left by 【Deep Sea] here. [Deep Sea】 will adjust the size of the armor on its own... In addition, you can also choose to click together manually. The button is at Forearm position.”

Gu Shen did not use his mental power.

He gently pressed the button on the inside of his forearm.

"laugh......"

By operating the source energy, the external armor seemed to be inflated, slowly shrinking from its unfitting loose size, and "fitting" was completed in just a few seconds.

"No wonder it's called external armor..."

Gu Shen tried to move his wrist.

Very relaxing.

The whole person is liberated.

This is indeed like his second body and bones.

"It can carry the explosive power of a third-level transcendent, so it is a 'third-level source armor'..." Gu Shen tried to throw a punch, which caused a slight roaring sound and exploded in the source energy boat. There was a sonic boom.

Azhaer narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although she was a well-intentioned visitor... she was still very curious about this "invitee" named by Her Majesty the Queen.

Beizhou also heard about the Qingzhong Cemetery.

This famous "S-class" of the ruling house almost single-handedly turned the tide and solved the catastrophe in Nagano.

So, what is the true strength of this S-class?

"The seventh floor..."

The expression on Azha'er's face remained unchanged, but she had an answer in her heart.

The aura on Gu Shen's body did not seem to be strong... Of course she had read Gu Shen's files and knew that this young man had embarked on the path of extraordinary cultivation. In only about two years, in such a short period of time, he could reach the seventh level in the deep water area. At a very high level, he can already be called a genius among geniuses.

However, this level of strength seems not worthy of his far-reaching reputation.

In Beizhou, a person with such high prestige——

It must have extremely powerful power!

In the energy boat, Gu Shen, who kept punching and moving, testing the external armor, suddenly stopped.

He silently said in his heart: "In the calculation method of the third-order Source Armor... does the maximum explosive power it can carry also include mental power?"

next moment.

He stretched out two fingers and pressed them between his eyebrows.

"Buzz——"

Summon the fire!

The wisp of fire in the spiritual sea burned rapidly, and when it was about to ignite at the center of Gu Shen's eyebrows, it was instantly intercepted by the "golden hoop" of the fighting divine fire——

But it's like a heavy hammer.

There was a sudden silence in the ward... Hong Zhong, who struggled to sit up, suddenly fell into confusion. This sentence hit him.

"I...I don't know..."

Hong Zhong's mind went blank.

Do not know why.

There was a surge of sadness in my heart.

He lowered his head in confusion, looking at the tears dripping from the sheets.

Hong Zhong murmured: "I can't remember..."

He couldn't remember clearly about the mission of "Maze Thirty-Eight".

Those memories turned into fragmented light floating in the air.

Piece by piece, like a mirror.

As long as he recalls it, these memories will shine with holy light and penetrate into his mind.

Zou Hai sat silently in front of the bed and said no more.

The six-person investigation team is the optimal solution to the maze mission exploration method given by 【Deep Sea】. The old world snow mountain canyon located in the north of Gubao has been broken, and it is not easy for too many people to explore.

As for this elite team, only Hong Zhong returned in the end.

For the Survey Corps, the most important thing is not only the "investigation results", but also every person who can come back alive.

In the old world, there were so many weird things.

One person's "dictation" is really difficult to become strong evidence.

"We need to know...the process."

After a long time, when Hong Zhong's mental state returned to stability, Adjutant Zou spoke again. His rough and fierce face was apologetic, and he said softly: "Don't be nervous, we will ask someone reliable enough." A e to do a check-up for you."

This situation.

Must pass "mental evaluation".

It's not that the officials are ruthless... but that the survey corps in the past paid a huge price for the mistake of "trust" in similar incidents.

"Do you...don't trust me..."

Hong Zhong's originally stable spirit became tense again.

He nervously squeezed Zou Hai's palm and tried to grab the tall man who was about to get up and leave. Then he stretched out his palm to grope around his body and murmured: "I have evidence... I have evidence... I saw it." 'Oasis', I saw living people in 'Oasis', I have evidence..."

"We have already submitted that sawdust."

Zou Hai turned around.

He said softly: "Have a good rest...and prepare for the 'mental test' tomorrow."

Finished.

He turned and left.

The door to the ward closed and silence returned.

...

...

"How is his condition?"

"Very serious."

"Very serious?"

"What he said is exactly the same as when he woke up for the first time... In this mental state, I doubt he can withstand a mental evaluation at all."

Zou Hai looked at the flickering candlelight in the study room and the figure projected by the firelight, and said with some distress: "Brigadier General, this is the image in the ward."

Lin Lin stopped writing.

He raised his head and stared at the projected image.

The skinny man woke up, feeling hugely dazed at first.

Then came the fierce announcement...

Finally, it’s time to take out the evidence.

He calmly looked at the image in front of him... not one, but two, one on the left and one on the right, three days ago and three days later respectively. The two images started playing when the man woke up, and the whole process was almost exactly the same.

Sitting in front of the hospital bed was the same man.

Zou Hai.

The nearest bystander who witnessed all this, Adjutant Zou, shook his head and said: "This is really a pitiful guy. He burned his blood for the Survey Corps and sacrificed all his companions. After returning with difficulty, he still has to be questioned... If he doesn't have the spirit If such a thing exists, everyone should believe that he is telling the truth."

After Hong Zhong returned to the fortress, it was taken over by the Gubao Fortress.

The subsequent treatment and subsequent investigation... were all taken over by Lin Lin.

The extraordinary beings under White Lizard had offered to hand over tasks more than once, but Lin Lin rejected them all.

"This is indeed a poor man."

Lin Lin stared at the two images and said without emotion: "I also hope that he is telling the truth...but I will not let him go, nor will I believe everything he says before passing the 'mental evaluation'" Character."

"..."

Adjutant Zou nodded with a complicated expression.

He knew that this was the right decision!

The leaders of the Survey Corps have more or less old friendships with "Hong Zhong"... Before official documents are delivered, it is best to detain the person in the Gubao Fortress.

"It's just that the Brigadier General, the captain of the second team of the Survey Corps... has offered to take people back more than once."

Zou Hai rubbed his eyebrows.

"You also know that those guys from the Survey Corps are not easy to mess with..." He said a little helplessly, "The pressure on my side is really high."

"Now that the person is awake, we will conduct a comprehensive 'mental evaluation' on him tomorrow."

Lin Lin's expression was as usual and he said calmly: "Tell Zhong Yuan, the second captain of the Investigation Corps, that if he passes the 'mental evaluation', pick him up immediately and don't wait for a second...if he doesn't pass, there is no need to do the rest." He has to worry about it, and Gubao will handle it for them. If you are not convinced, report it directly to Central City, and I will accept all arrangements from Central City."

"......clear!"

After hearing this, Adjutant Zou nodded slowly.

He saluted and prepared to leave. Before opening the door of the study, he thought of one more thing.

"Your Majesty Brigadier, there may be a 'guest' arriving at Gubao tomorrow."

Lin Lin frowned.

"guest?"

How could there be guests in a place like Gubao?

"It was arranged by Grand Duke Zhuxue..." Zou Hai said with some uneasiness. He knew that there were some people in Central City whose names were taboo and it was best not to mention them to the Brigadier General. Grand Duke Zhuxue was one of them.

Before he could finish speaking.

"Tell him to get lost."

Lin Lin didn't even raise his head, and said in a cold tone: "Whether there are guests in Gubao or not, Zhuxue's decision doesn't count, mine does!"

"grown ups......"

Zou Hai looked slightly startled. The Brigadier seemed to have misunderstood the origin of the guest... He wanted to say something else.

"Go down."

Lin Lin waved his hand, obviously not wanting to continue this topic.

And the next moment.

A low roar sounded in the sky above the Gubao Fortress.

Lin Lin raised his head.

This is the voice of the 【Source Energy Boat】. The important thing is... this is the Gubao Fortress. He is in charge of the fortress. Without his permission, every source energy boat in the Gubao cannot be mobilized.

As an outsider, there is only one possibility that does not cause the defense system of the fortress to react.

This is the 【Source Energy Boat】 authorized by Her Majesty the Queen.

Zou Hai glanced down at the news and said respectfully: "Brodore, that guest arrived earlier than expected... He has already arrived."
