Light Barrier

Chapter 535

The moment you see who's coming.

Zhong Yuan narrowed his eyes.

For some unknown reason today, there was always a shadow lingering in his heart, as if to remind him that something might happen.

Since his extraordinary awakening, Zhong Yuan's premonition has been very accurate.

At this moment he finally understood the reason.

Grand Duke Zhenyue also came to the training ground.

"Mr. Zhong Yuan, I have long admired your name." Meng Xiao stretched out a hand and said calmly: "I heard that you are one of the most talented people in Beizhou. You first joined the Third Army and then the Survey Corps. Before you were thirty, you became the Second Army. The captain has high power and position, and is deeply valued by the regiment commander... Such a resume is really amazing."

There is nothing wrong with these words. If they were said by others, they would be able to hear the meaning of "exclamation".

But it was different when Grand Duke Zhenyue said it.

His tone was calm.

In terms of status, he is much more noble than Zhong Yuan!

"...Mr. Meng can speak directly if he has anything to say."

Zhong Yuan had no expression on his face, stretched out his palm, and shook hands with Meng Xiao politely.

He didn't call Zhen Yue by his name at all.

Men from the Survey Corps, what scene have you not seen before?

Zhong Yuan knew that at the dinner, a conflict broke out between his deputy captain and Duke Zhenyue and his party.

This kind of thing is nothing. Since he chose to inform Gu Shen in advance in Gubao, he was naturally prepared to deal with it head-on.

"Nothing... I just want to remind Mr. Zhong Yuan that it is better for the people who survey the corps to carry out their mission out of the fortress honestly." Meng Xiao said calmly: "Why do you have to get involved in things that have nothing to do with you?"

Zhong Yuan's pupils contracted.

He looked into Zhenyue's eyes.

Those eyes were cold and full of warning.

This guy...knows what he said to Gu Shen in Gubao?

No...no, how do you know this?

"You seem surprised..."

Meng Xiao suddenly smiled, and he let go of Zhong Yuan's hand: "If you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself."

Grand Duke Zhenyue tapped his eyes lightly with two fingers and said calmly: "I can see... more than you imagine."

"What on earth is this guy talking about?"

Zhen Yue left, and Lu Zhe frowned, "What a arrogant guy. Sooner or later, someone will treat him."

Zhong Yuan lowered his head and asked in a deep voice.

"If I remember correctly, Meng Xiao's strength...is only at the tenth level of the deep sea, right?"

Lu Zhe was slightly startled.

"Yes... he just broke through the fourth level." Lu Zhe rubbed his chin, "This kid should be an attack-type extraordinary person, but his mental power is really strong. He should be a rare existence on the tenth level. It seems that before He is also a 'transcender'."

A true genius can elevate his mental power to a level beyond his current state.

There are so few people like this. They have a name in Beizhou, called "Transcendental Persons"... In fact, this type of title does not have much meaning, because the closer to the early stage of transcendental awakening, the more difficult it is to complete the "Spiritual Transcendence". The simpler.

For example, at the beginning, some people had just awakened their extraordinary abilities, and their strength was at the first level of the deep water zone. However, due to their excellent awakening talents, their mental power started at the second level level... Although the number of these people was not large, they were still at the level of the second level. Not that rare.

The further you go, the more difficult it becomes to complete the "spiritual transcendence".

Mental strength is the greatest condition to support the stable progress of extraordinary abilities!

The stronger a person's mental power is, the smaller the probability of losing control...the greater the source of energy that can be carried and the explosive power that can be generated instantly!

And every time you cross a level, there is a big chasm.

If there is a third-level genius who is at the eighth level of extraordinary strength and the ninth level of mental ability, when he is steadily promoted to the ninth level, there is a high probability that his mental power will be infinitely close to that of the fourth level... Such a person A powerful genius, when he successfully crosses the level, his mental power level is probably only at the average level of the tenth level.

His mental strength is still higher than his extraordinary strength.

But...it is difficult to achieve "transcendence" anymore.

Grand Duke Zhenyue, who has just broken through the fourth level, already possesses the top tenth level of spiritual power. Apparently he has completed the "spiritual transcendence" in the previous stage!

"When it comes to Xizhou's genius, everyone's eyes are attracted to the goddess of light... They all say that Meng Xizhou is extremely talented, but this Meng Xiao is not just a person."

Lu Zhe said with emotion: "Judging from the current spiritual aura induction, I am afraid that in the third stage of practice, he has successfully completed the 'Transcendence'. This is really not easy."

"If he had just transcended one realm, I'm afraid he wouldn't be like him now..." Zhong Yuan said expressionlessly: "Who is not a 'transcendent'?"

Those who can obtain the qualification of "exemption candidates" are all geniuses among geniuses.

Both he and Lu Zhe had completed the spiritual power transcendence in the third stage.

However, when he was promoted to the fourth stage, Zhongyuan's mental power stabilized at the mid-level level of the tenth level, and he was never able to complete the transcendence after that.

"It makes sense, but he is not as strong as you thought." Lu Zhe smiled: "As far as I know, there is only one person in the entire Five Continents, Xiaoqiu, who can achieve the two realms of transcendence at the third level... Meng Xiao Now that his mental power is so strong, he must have used some means to achieve a second breakthrough."

"look."

Zhong Yuan looked at Lu Zhe and spread out the palm he was holding.

His palm seemed to be coated with a layer of gold powder.

Some parts are shining brightly.

This isn't really a powder, but a "spiritual glow."

"The golden spiritual glow..."

Lu Zhe's eyes narrowed and his expression became solemn, "Let me just say, this guy must have extra means to get by. It is said that he has won the support of Guangming City... While inheriting the hereditary title in Beizhou, he also enjoys the support in Guangming City. This ray of radiant aura is very powerful, and it is most likely some kind of blessing given by the 'God of Light'. When it comes to a real fight, there are probably not many people at the same level who can be his opponent."

Say it.

Lu Zhe smiled: "But Xiaozhong, what are you afraid of? You are the eleventh level of Dzogchen! He really dares to fight you, I support you to fix him! This is Beizhou, if he dares to use 'Guangming City' I will crush these spiritual radiances for you!"

These words are truly "arrogant".@@@@

These spiritual radiances are most likely the blessings left by the "Throne of Light".

Although there is only one ray, if it is truly awakened, the power will be extremely powerful... Listening to Lu Zhe's tone, he did not pay attention to these radiances at all.

"Of course I'm not afraid of him."

Zhong Yuan knew what kind of monster the captain of the first team was. He shook his head and said solemnly: "Actually, the point is not the conflict between Meng Xiao and I. You should have seen it. He was demonstrating to me just now..."

"Oh?" Lu Zhe raised his eyebrows.

He understood what Zhong Yuan meant. The two of them had no grievances. How could Grand Duke Zhenyue... give the warning just now for no reason?

"The reason for the demonstration is very simple..."

Zhong Yuan said: "Not long ago, I met Gu Shen in Gubao."

"Gu Shen?"

Lu Zhe felt that this matter was getting more and more interesting, "That S-level genius from Dongzhou?"

"Um."

Zhong Yuan said calmly: "Because of the maze mission and the storm battle in the Fort, the Queen invited him and my team members to enter the city to receive rewards."

The recent news is quite exciting.

Most of the extraordinary people in Central City know it.

It's just that people like Lu Zhe are a different kind. He has never cared about trivial matters that have nothing to do with him. After completing the mission, he came to the training ground early, focused on nothing, practiced in seclusion, and began to prepare for the restart of the mission.

So Zhong Yuan said it again.

After a while.

"So... you mean that Meng Xiao knows what you said to Gu Shen in Gubao?" Lu Zhe frowned: "You suspect that it is the power of some kind of sealed object that has traveled thousands of miles to complete something like this." A re-release of 'Profiling'?"

"good."

Zhong Yuan said slowly: "This guy... has a power that makes my heart palpitate. I suspect it is some powerful sealed object."

"Tsk, this is not something that can be guessed casually." Lu Zhe smiled and said: "The third child is well-informed and has been operating in the Zhenyue fiefdom before. Is he the one who told you this news?"

The "third child" in Lu Zhe's mouth is the third captain of the Survey Corps. This is an alternative character who does not take fighting as his forte. His strength is not outstanding among the captains of the corps, but he travels around the border all the year round, fighting with the generals. The relationship remains very good.

For this reason, most of the time, he was not on missions outside the fortress. Instead, he was helping the legion commander manage the surrounding relationships, investigating some trivial matters, and investigating inland cases related to the legion.

Because he is well-informed, several captain-level experts often jokingly call him the "Eye of the Survey Corps". Like Osmond, he is the first-in-line successor who will be very useful in the future!

Zhong Yuan nodded and said: "Old Zheng is usually not very reliable, so this kind of key information cannot be wrong."

"Well... Although he holds the hereditary title of Grand Duke in Beizhou, Meng Xiao has a very high status in Guangming City." Lu Zhe said slowly: "With his status, if there are any taboo sealed objects... it is reasonable. . But I don’t really believe that there are sealed objects that can do it, thousands of miles away, and go back in time and space. Even if it can be done, why would he trace it to you?"

Zhong Yuan also fell into thinking.

Yes.

Due to the reminder from the third captain, he was extremely careful when warning Gu Shen.

Didn't even say anything.

On weekdays, he has no interaction with Grand Duke Zhenyue.

How on earth did this get “checked” on him?

...

"Scan completed, some information cannot be obtained..."

Gu Shen no longer attacks the golden hoop.

In his mind, an illusory picture of a few carriages emerged.

The girl sitting in the carriage drew a list with her fingertips: "According to the scanned information, apart from you, there are seven people living in this building. This should be what Azhaer said. Those who know are exempt from the test.”

Gu Shen saw the person he was looking for on the list at a glance.

Meng Xiao!

"really......"

The pendant guide is correct!

"Only seven?" Gu Shen frowned slightly: "I thought all the captains to restart the mission had been determined..."

Now, it seems that is not the case.

Beizhou has only selected absolute captain-level figures. It seems that the ongoing meeting in Central City is to select other suitable captains.

Then these seven should be the well-deserved top geniuses.

It is really difficult to be able to avoid taking the exam and stand out from the entire Beizhou border.

Gu Shen flipped through the list and smiled lightly.

All my previous guesses were correct.

He saw the familiar blond man, Zhong Yuan, captain of the Second Team of the Survey Corps, who was also on the list of captains... However, this guy's strength was among the best in the entire Beizhou, so there was no reason why he was not exempt from the test.

Besides Zhong Yuan, there is also an old acquaintance.

"Fischer...he is also in this building."

Gu Shen still remembered the "immortal" wearing the source armor mask on the giant wall. He didn't expect to meet again so soon. Thinking about it carefully, he didn't see Fisher at the previous dinner.

I think I accepted the invitation in advance and was sent here to start practicing.

He didn't know much about the information about 【Live Fish】, but he knew that Fisher was very strong, otherwise he wouldn't have made an exception to obtain the seventh-level Source Armor.

Looking at it now, these seven exempted people should all be extremely powerful extraordinary beings.

Moreover...it seems that those who are exempted from the exam are not selected based on their strength.

There are many strong men in Beizhou.

There are at least a dozen extraordinary beings on the eleventh floor of the deep water area...

"The Third Legion and the Survey Legion are still mainly responsible for restarting the mission this time, so most of the selectors are from the two legions." Chu Ling said slowly: "These extraordinary people on the list are all extremely talented. Well, I guess Her Majesty the Queen granted them exemption from the exam and summoned them in advance... maybe there are other things."

"other things?"

Gu Shen fell into thinking, and then he let out a light sigh.

He saw an "interesting" character on the list.

"The third-level transcendent...are also on the list of exempted persons?"

Gu Shen's eyes stayed on the name "Mu Wanqiu".

The strength of this extraordinary person is the same as mine!

They are all on the seventh floor!

"Mu Wanqiu's files are completely sealed and almost unavailable for viewing. She is known as Beizhou's 'S-class', and like you, enjoys extremely high treatment." Chu Ling said seriously: "It is said that her extraordinary abilities are very powerful. The future potential is extremely high...it is completely possible to fight beyond the current realm."

Gu Shen remembered what he had heard before.

Among the members of the Survey Corps, there is a monster who is an extremely powerful "transcendent".

"Mu Wanqiu..."

He recited the name silently, and for some reason, the blazing fire jumped faintly.

Could it be that the cross pendant guides more than one dangerous person?

Every extraordinary person on this list is a strong person who cannot be underestimated!

Before meeting each other, Gu Shen did not dare to let down his guard. He did not know who was the enemy and who was a friend. If he made an exception and participated in this restart mission, he would probably cause dissatisfaction among the geniuses in Beizhou.

...

...

Gu Shen sent greeting messages to 【Live Fish】 Fisher and Zhong Yuan respectively.

When he came here, he only had these two acquaintances.

He knew the personalities of these two people and had a good relationship with him... When he first arrived, it was necessary to take the initiative to say hello.

The exempted people in this building are all real strong men. Except for Meng Xiao, there is no need for Gu Shen to offend the others. Maybe by contacting these two, he can introduce himself to other captains in the building.

Fisher responded quickly.

"Gu, I really didn't expect to meet you on such an occasion..."

The living fish was surprised by Gu Shen's arrival, but also expressed his eager welcome. At the same time, he jokingly said that it was unfortunate that he was changing the water in the "fish tank" above his head... and after changing the water, he had to participate in the Deep Scale City I have an online meeting to deal with some trivial matters in the fortress. I'm afraid I don't have much time to meet with Gu Shen today.

As for Zhongyuan.

This guy was probably busy and didn't reply at all.

Gu Shen felt a little bored and rested, and suddenly thought of the "simulated battle cabin" that Azhaer said.

The thirty-seventh floor is not far from me.

...

...

Gu Shen has seen the simulated battle cabin developed by Huazhi, a cabin that can accommodate adults lying down completely. After entering, the cabin will be closed after completing the link...

There is one drawback to this pod.

That is, it is easy to cause fluctuations. The more powerful the spirit, the harder it is to be completely carried by the 【Deep Sea Network]. In fact, it is not that [Deep Sea] is incapable, but that the Federation has deprived [Deep Sea】 of the ability to carry powerful spirits.

【Deep Sea】 is scattered to five continents.

Its computing power is also distributed across five continents... The most important task is to ensure that every branch can be connected stably.

The construction of the deep water area can be achieved by every extraordinary person contributing a small amount of spirit!

This small ray of spirit is a symbol of status and proof of popularity.

Countless extraordinary people contribute computing power to the Deep Sea, and the Deep Sea feeds back the network to them.

But if 【Deep Sea】 has the complete and concrete ability to carry a powerful spirit... there may be an accident that swallows it up.

The "battle cabin" in front of me is very similar to the one developed by Huazhi.

But there is a completely different difference!

"The spiritual network on this floor is severed."

Chu Ling said seriously: "Similar to the blockade policy adopted by Gubao Fortress, the local area network is used to ensure a stable link within the spiritual network, and at the same time to ensure that the spirit of the extraordinary will not be swallowed up... so this place can 100% carry the spirit of the extraordinary. , to carry out simulated battles to the greatest extent, this method is destined to be unable to be promoted. "

So...this is a battle cabin specially built for elites!

Gu Shen sat in the cabin.

He closed his eyes and made a mental connection... He seemed to feel the bumpy feeling of connecting to the 【Deep Sea】 for the first time.

The world has become silent as never before.

Open your eyes again.

He turned his head, and what he saw at this moment was not the narrow cabin that contained him, but an open world of ice.

The wind was freezing, and there was even a slight biting chill.

Really interesting...

This is no longer the realm of "toys".

In front of Gu Shen, there was a prompt on the system panel. The battle cabin automatically put a "fourth-level source armor" on him based on his current mental strength, and recommended an AI opponent with a fourth-level source armor for the battle.

Due to mental network blockade.

A simulated battle between Yuan Jia in the battle cabin... Without face-to-face contact with other opponents, naturally it can only be a "single-player game".

Gu Shen pulled out the long knife from his source armor.

He briefly became familiar with running and jumping.

In the wind and snow in the distance, the shadow of the AI ​​opponent slowly condensed.

The war hasn't started yet, and the world around him is a blur.

A string of 【codes】 swarmed out of the wind and snow, pieced together into a blurry image of a girl in white.

【Code】 gradually disappears.

The image of the girl becomes clear and real.

Chu Ling reached out to touch the snow flakes here and said with emotion: "The Beizhou military's idea is very good, but it needs to be improved... If you want to achieve a real network blockade, you can't let me find a way to sneak in."

After pinching a handful of broken snow and kneading it into a snowball, Chu Ling floated and landed on a large rock. She stretched out her hand to hold her chin, and the heavy snow in the sky blew the girl's long hair and dress.

There was a "pop" sound.

She gently threw the snowball and hit Gu Shen's source armor.

"Hey, Gu Shenzuo."

Chu Ling blinked and showed a sly smile that he had never seen before: "It's so boring in the carriage, let me enjoy your Yuan Jia performance."
