    Chapter 40 Huo Xianfeng!!!

    Jiang Ci had just devoted himself to the battle and naturally had no time to pay attention to Huo Xiafeng. However, Ye Shu, who had been standing beside the latter, witnessed with his own eyes all Huo Xiafeng's performance during the whole process.

    This young man of unknown origin clearly looked lazy and unreliable, but in fact, from the moment he appeared, everyone seemed to be led by his nose.

    First, he got the remains of the Forbidden Abyss, and then easily captured the core. He even saw through Ye Shu's hidden backhand and just followed the trend. Just now, just when everyone thought Cruzi had really taken away the core.

    As a result, it turned out to be just a game experiment by Huo Xianfeng.

    "..."

    At this moment, Ye Shu couldn't even hide the surprise and shock in his tone.

    "Who...are you?"

    This is really an unsolvable problem.Huo Xianfeng thought for a while, turned his head and asked him,

    "I'm suddenly very curious, what would you do if I were really Huo Chao?"

    This question made Ye Shu's breath hitch, but he did not show any overly intense emotions, he just gave a wry smile,

    "...If you were, you wouldn't ask me such a question."

    Huo Xianfeng nodded and accepted the other party's polite refusal.

    "Well, that's right."

    At this time, the young man suddenly threw it casually.

    Snapped!

    Wan Jiang caught the Forbidden Abyss Core thrown by Huo Xianfeng.The black and silver metal ball is engraved with complex and mysterious patterns, and its surface is covered with traces of smoke and battle damage from the ancient battlefields of the earth three hundred years ago.

    I don’t know how it was briefly activated by Cruzi just now, but now it is lighting up with a beautiful and soft warm light.

    Ye Shu looked at the core in his hand with complicated eyes.

    "Do you know why I stopped you that night to ask you three questions?"

    "?"

    Huo Xianfeng thought about it, but couldn't get the answer.But at this time, Ye Shu had no intention of showing off.

    "Because, long, long ago, when Jiang Jinsheng first broke through the church's technological barriers and developed a mecha that can be controlled with mental power, until now, people who can control mechas at will without going through the spiritual chain...…”

    He looked up at Huo Xianfeng, as if trying to catch another person's shadow through him

    "Besides Huo Chao, there is only you."

    Therefore, at that time, Ye Shu had a gut feeling that he should have some relationship with Huo Chao.

    "..."

    At the same time, this was also part of the reason why Huo Xianfeng was able to recapture the core of the Forbidden Abyss from Cruzi.

    The young man was silent for a moment, then smiled and said,

    "I am honored to be compared with that lord."

    However, Huo Xianfeng now wants to know the answer to another thing.

    "Ye Shu, how did you take away the generals from the army commander?"

    Huo Xianfeng had fought against Zhou Jiuya, and had also heard of some of the deeds of the founding father. Logically speaking, it would be difficult for Ye Shu to gain control of Wan Jiang.

    "..."

    ——Of course it was the virus chip given by Jiang Jinsheng.

    Virus chip...

    Ye Shu closed his eyes and saw the old friend who had passed away in his yellowed memory.

    [What do you want this thing for?]

    At that time, when Ye Shu, who was still seriously injured, found Jiang Jinsheng, the latter was still working day and night to repair the core of the Forbidden Abyss. Jiang Jinsheng was very surprised when he suddenly heard such a strange request.

    [He chose Pei Changyun, and I chose the dead Huo Chao,]

    [We are already on opposite sides.One day, we will meet with swords.]

    Ye Shu touched the gauze wrapped around his left face.

    [Before that, I need to prepare a trump card.]

    Hearing this, Jiang Jinsheng smiled.

    [Why, why didn't you say that I betrayed you too?]

    After all, Jiang Jinsheng was providing weapons and funds to Pei Changyun at that time, which was equivalent to siding with Pei Changyun.

    [No, this is different.]

    Ye Shu shook his head,

    [You have never been on anyone’s side, you have always been on the side of human interests.]

    At that time, the Illusion God Cult suddenly emerged on the earth. After this weird Holy See demonstrated high technology that surpassed humans for nearly a thousand years, they quickly controlled a large amount of the alliance's say.At the same time, three major church colleges were quickly established across the earth to recruit believers.

    Jiang Jinsheng entered the church college at the age of seven. When he was thirty-five, the huge technological gap was shortened to four hundred years by himself, and he became the most wanted enemy of the church.

    At that time, Ye Shu looked into Jiang Jinsheng's eyes and said seriously,

    [He said, you are a great man.]

    Jiang Jinsheng was slightly startled, lowered his eyes and shook his head, smiling.

    [Ah...that guy Huo Chao really puts a high hat on me.]

    So in the end, Ye Shu obtained a micro-nuclear bomb, a virus chip, and a large amount of financial assistance from Jiang Jinsheng.Then, he took the ruined core of the Forbidden Abyss to the Tiandong Star and built a dungeon.

    But Ye Shu would obviously not tell a stranger who knew nothing except his name these secrets that had been sealed for years.

    Seeing the other party's silence, Huo Xianfeng did not ask further questions. After all, of course he did not insist on getting an answer, but just used it to tell Ye Shu——

    "Lord City Lord, I think our relationship is not yet at the stage where we can confide in each other, what do you think?"

    "..."

    indeed so.

    However, perhaps it was because the other party was sitting in the cockpit of Forbidden Abyss at the moment. Facing such a familiar scene, Ye Shu could not feel too wary.

    At this time, Huo Xianfeng suddenly said,

    "Speaking of which, the time that the Lord of the City can control the generals should not be too long."

    "...!!!"

    Ye Shu's pupils trembled, and the next second, he suddenly turned around, only to see Zhou Jiuya suddenly burst out, breaking free from the shackles,

    boom!!!

    A big hand slapped Ye Shu against the wall.

    Perhaps the people in the Jiang family are highly resistant to drug resistance. After injecting such a large dose of sedatives, in less than twenty minutes, Zhou Jiuya had recovered five points of his strength. He took out the handcuffs and clasped Ye Shu's wrist.The movements are done in one go and very neatly.

    "The farce is over, Ye Shu!"

    The latter didn't struggle, just responded with a sarcastic smile,

    "Why, do you want to capture me and present me to His Majesty the Emperor for reward?"

    "...I won't let Pei Changyun hurt you."

    "It's just going to put me under house arrest, right?"

    The four of them had fought side by side with each other for a long and difficult time under Huo Chao, and they all knew each other too deeply.

    "..."

    Zhou Jiuya suddenly became speechless.

    Seeing the other party's reaction, Ye Shu smiled lowly, as if he suddenly figured out a confusion he had been having for many years.

    "So, that's what he meant...that's what he meant..."

    Ye Shu once asked Huo Chao what he thought of the four of them.At that time, the latter pondered for a moment and replied like this -

    Jiang Jinsheng focused on scientific research.It is his lifelong dream to close the technological gap between the Church and the Alliance.Such people are destined to leave their mark in history.

    Pei Changyun is an ambitious politician. Likewise, his wrists and brains are worthy of such ambitions, but his force value is not very high, but this is not a fatal flaw, because he will use others to make up for it.

    Zhou Jiuya is calm and reserved, with unparalleled personal bravery. He is a rare general, but... he wants to seize everything. If he does not change this, he will probably lose everything in the end.

    The more Ye Shu listened, the more curious he became. He asked,

    [what about me?What deep meaning do I have?]

    Huo Chao quickly flipped through the documents on his desk without raising his head.

    [you?You're just a brat.]

    That joke-like comment made Ye Shu very angry, but an emergency military situation suddenly came at that time, and Huo Chao strode out without even putting down his pen.So in the end, Ye Shu didn't get the answer.

    But three hundred years later, Ye Lu suddenly understood what Huo Chao said that day. The latter had seen through everyone early——

    Jiang Jinsheng finally died for his dream.

    The ambitious Pei Changyun worked hard and finally overthrew the alliance and became the founding emperor.

    Zhou Jiuya was indeed a general, and he valued friendship above all else, but he had obviously worked hard enough and tried his best, but in the end, whether it was his most cherished family ties or friendships, everything was now in a mess.

    Finally, as for leaf sparseness…

    After such a long time, almost everyone has long since moved on from Huo Chao's death. Only he still stubbornly clings to the core of the ruins of the Forbidden Abyss, sinking in memories for three hundred years, unwilling to wake up.

    Just like a stubborn and childish kid.

    Huo Chao's casual words turned out to be prophecies, and they were finally fulfilled one by one in the torrent of time.

    So, does that person foresee his own death?

    Probably yes.

    At least that's what Ye Shu thought. He believed that no one could kill him except Huo Chao himself.

    Ding

    Calm returned to Wan Jiang's cockpit, and Zhou Jiuya regained control of the mecha.

    "Report, Lord Legion, the church has opened a space wormhole, and the aircraft carrier has jumped and evacuated."

    "Um."

    This was a result that Zhou Jiuya had long expected.

    "Clean up the battlefield, and then tell the Political Department..."

    He paused and said in a deep voice,

    "Prepare to take over Asparagus."

    "yes!"

    After Zhou Jiuya properly arranged all the remaining matters, he discovered that Huo Xianfeng was no longer where he was. He turned around and saw that Bai Ze had finished the battle, and Jin Yuan was squatting beside him, the two of themAn individual is inspecting the wreckage of a scrapped Zerg mecha.

    "So, it was you who took away the core of the Forbidden Abyss?"

    Jiang Ci's confusion just now was finally resolved. He said that after Cruzi got the core, his strength increased greatly. At that time, Jiang Ci was not even sure that he could win, but the last shot was obviously not enough to defeat Cruzi.But it actually smashed the opponent to pieces.

    "Yes, this biological mecha is obviously still in an experimental state, and its strength level is very unstable. However, after it steals the power of the Forbidden Abyss, it will indeed experience a terrifying increase in a short period of time,"

    Huo Xianfeng smiled and nodded. He fiddled with the debris on the ground, seeming to be looking for something.

    "But if the core is suddenly withdrawn, it will be like a huge bonfire that was originally burning and the main body was suddenly removed. Naturally, there will only be a few sparks left. The energy will be insufficient at the critical moment, which is very fatal."

    Jiang Ci narrowed her eyes slightly,

    And not only that, Huo Xianfeng's timing of retracting the core was very precise, just one second before he was about to deploy the defensive shield.It was equivalent to Cruzi directly using his most fatal weakness to hit Jiang Ci's most powerful blow.

    So in the end, it exploded into a ball of fireworks, which was not surprising at all.

    Jiang Ci found out that this guy liked to use the trick of pulling people out of the cauldron very much. Either he would not fight, or he would choose the least labor-intensive way to fight, or if it took a little more effort, he would just eliminate the trouble forever.

    The silver-haired major general stared at him complicatedly, and at this moment he felt a subtle sense of joy.

    Fortunately——

    This young man named Huo Xianfeng is not an enemy.

    Otherwise, it would be terrible.

    Jiang Ci suddenly noticed Jin Yuan's empty hands, frowned and asked,

    "Then where is the core now?!"

    "Well……"

    Huo Xianfeng suddenly raised his hand and fished it back casually.

    The next second——

    The core in General Wan's hand suddenly turned into a ray of silver light and shot out.

    Snapped!

    Jin Yuan tightened his fingers and caught it accurately.Then the next second, Huo Xianfeng threw the core in his hand to Jiang Ci.

    "Here, here."

    His movements were very casual, as if that was not the core of the only 3S mecha in the world, but just a pinball that children liked.

    "If you like it, take it."

    Jiang Ci, who originally just wanted to ask casually: "...Eh?"

    Zhou Jiuya, who was just about to put the core away: "...?"

    "????"

    Something is gone?????

    Jiang Ci didn't expect that the other party would do such a thing. You know, this war was caused by this core. Huo Xianfeng gave him something that everyone was desperately fighting for.?

    "you give me?"

    "yes."

    Jin Yuan squatted on the ground, supporting the side of his face with one hand. He should obviously have the posture of a village second-rate, but when he did it, he seemed a bit more arrogant.

    Huo Xianfeng does want a more powerful mecha, but Forbidden Abyss is too troublesome and involves too many forces.He was afraid of trouble, so he didn't want it.

    Plus

    "Anyway, this thing isn't repaired, so it's useless for me to hold it."

    "..."

    Hearing this explanation, Jiang Ci felt mixed emotions, but the next moment he heard the other party say,

    "If you really feel sorry for me, you can give me an A-class mecha."

    Jiang Ci: "..."

    Sure enough, he knew that Huo Xianfeng would never suffer.

    "……Can."

    In fact, if you think about it carefully, this is the best way to deal with it.After all, although Huo Xianfeng was strong, it was impossible for one person to match the entire First Legion.

    It's better to hand over the core generously and get some courtesy.

    Oh no, the other party even cheated him with a mecha.

    Mechas above Class B are controlled military equipment under imperial law, but they are only part of the production of military factories.Excludes private manufacturing.

    ——This is a promise Pei Changyun made to the Jiang family.

    But making a mecha cannot be done by just one person.In the entire empire, probably only the Jiang family has this strength.For example, Little

    swish swish——

    The ground of the ruins suddenly shook slightly.

    Wow——!!!

    The ground suddenly collapsed, and the remains of the biological mecha were swallowed up in the blink of an eye.

    Bai Ze suddenly stood up, soared into the air, turned around on his side and stretched out several muzzles, pointing directly at the ground——

    If Jin Yuan hadn't still been there, Jiang Ci would have fired immediately.

    "Huo Xianfeng! Get out of the way! There's something underground!!!"

    His voice suddenly tightened and he said cautiously,

    Although it was said that there was something, after experiencing the scene of the rebirth of the Zerg on the earth, the Major General confirmed what was hidden underground almost instantly.

    ——Zerg!

    Moreover, Huo Xianfeng asked Ye Shu face to face just now and said that there was indeed an insect nest underground on Tiandong Star.

    At this moment, Jiang Ci had no time to think about when Huo Xianfeng discovered the insect nest. He just stared at the ground, ready to attack anytime and anywhere.

    But at this moment, Jin Yuan did not move. His hand was flat on the ground, as if he was really sensing something.

    [Do you know what is left on the forelimb?]

    Huo Xianfeng has become proficient in communicating with these silly larvae. He had doubts the moment the Zerg mecha appeared, and when Cruzi used something to activate the forbidden abyss and steal power, thisStock skepticism is at its peak.

    Under the dark underground, the larvae quickly sniffed the scent of the wreckage.

    [Wang, it seems to be nerve fluid...]

    [It’s nerve fluid!]

    [General’s nerve fluid!]

    These little guys only know short sentences and repeat them over and over again.

    Huo Xianfeng was slightly startled.

    [What is neurofluid?]

    The next second, the larvae chirped and gave answers quickly,

    [That’s it, the fluid in my brain...]

    [Very important liquid!]

    [The bugs are gone and they will die!]

    [will die...]

    [die...]

    The larvae below shivered and huddled together, repeating back and forth, with a hint of panic in their voices.

    Seeing that Huo Xianfeng did not respond, and at this moment, the ground stopped shaking, Jiang Ci frowned, but slowly fell down.At this time, Huo Xianfeng stood up and spoke lightly,

    "It's nothing, don't be nervous, it's just that the aftereffects of the battle just affected it, and the bottom collapsed."

    "……Yeah?"

    Jiang Ci didn't quite believe it, but when he turned on the detection system and carefully checked one side, the fact was as Huo Xianfeng said, there was nothing underneath, it was just a pure collapse.

    But he still felt something was strange.

    Rumble——

    A clear roar like thunder came from above the sky.

    The three mechas on the ground raised their heads at the same time, and saw the black army of warships and mechas landing brazenly, casting down a huge shadow that covered the sky and the sun, causing the entire underground city to shake slightly under the huge pressure.

    ——This small-scale battle is finally over.

    Huo Xianfeng narrowed his eyes and clearly recognized the fact that Tiandong Star was completely within the military jurisdiction of the empire at this moment.

    Wan Jiang and Bai Ze deformed and shrank at the same time. The two hundred-meter-tall steel giants turned into two tiny figures in the dazzling snow light.Huo Xianfeng thought for a while and jumped out of the cockpit.

    ——Although Little X can serve as the temporary core of the Forbidden Abyss, it cannot activate the space folding function.

    Therefore, the current Forbidden Abyss cannot be transformed into a small jewelry to be carried around like Bai Ze.

    As a result, everyone in the First Legion saw the remains of the huge forbidden abyss.

    "That is!!!"

    "Is it... the Forbidden Abyss?!"

    "Is it the forbidden abyss of Marshal Huo Chao?!!!"

    "Didn't you say that it was wiped out in a nuclear explosion a long time ago?!"

    "How would it appear here?!!!"

    At this moment, no one was happy about the small victory just now. There was only one question left in everyone's mind——

    Who is driving the Forbidden Abyss?!

    Who can drive the 3S-level Forbidden Abyss?!!

    Before this moment, everyone would probably have only one answer.

    But now, a second one appeared in front of them.

    Wow——

    Huo Xianfeng took advantage of the anti-gravity function of Xiao

    only……

    The young man looked around, as if he felt countless dense and scorching gazes.

    Why do these people look at him like this?

    After all, the current Huo Xianfeng is similar to Huo Chao in facial features.Compared with Huo Chao's stern and sharp appearance, Huo Xianfeng obviously has more of a youthful handsomeness.

    and

    They also have black hair and black eyes that are extremely rare nowadays.

    An incredible but very reasonable guess came to everyone's mind.

    Damn it!!!

    The private communication channel of the First Legion exploded.

    "These eyebrows, hair color and eye color, there must be some blood relationship, right?!"

    "Isn't this the son of Marshal Huo Chao????"

    "Besides, I just saw him jump out of the cockpit of the Forbidden Abyss with my own eyes!!!!"

    "sky……!!!"

    "..."

    Countless warships and mechas finally landed, crushing the ruins on the ground with a loud bang.Then, countless senior officers and guards quickly ran towards this side in formation.While running, everyone couldn't help but look at Huo Xianfeng.

    This scene was very weird. A large group of alpha officers who looked like bulls and horses rushed towards the legion commander, but their eyes were glued to Huo Xianfeng next to them.

    If he hadn't known that his face and body shape were completely different from those on Earth, Huo Xianfeng would have suspected that he had fallen off the horse.

    "Tsk..."

    The young man couldn't help but lean closer to Jiang Ci.

    "Look if there's something on my face. Why do these guys look at me like this?"

    Jiang Ci: "..."

    Jiang Ci has seen Huo Chao's photos, but has spent more time with Huo Xianfeng, because the latter has a very doggy character, so he will not associate the two with each other at all.

    However, he still turned his head as he was told, but he didn't expect that at this moment, the other party would also come closer at the same time.

    The dangerous and ambiguous distance suddenly narrowed. If it were five centimeters closer, perhaps more intimate skin-to-skin contact would be necessary.

    Jiang Ci was startled for a moment, then quickly turned back.

    "...Nothing!"

    "oh."

    This scene was seen by all the melon-eating people.

    Although Zhou Jiuya was quickly receiving the current military reports and making timely deployments and arrangements one by one, at this moment, everyone was more concerned about the strange black-haired boy standing next to the Major General than this small-scale victory..

    Naturally, I saw the unusual closeness between the Major General and the guy who was suspected to be the son of Marshal Huo Chao.

    You should know that if it were another alpha, if he dared to approach suddenly, he would be kicked into a meteor by the Major General immediately.

    "Major General Jiang Ci——"

    Several officers came towards him, as if they wanted to say something.In fact, this is considered a normal thing, but at this time, Jiang Ci suddenly realized something and suddenly shouted sharply!

    "Wait! Stop, don't come over!!!"

    Click!

    This sound instantly attracted everyone's attention, and the alpha officers were seen standing still, neither advancing nor retreating.

    The young man looked back at him in surprise, only to find that Jiang Ci suddenly wrapped his clothes tightly around his body, his face as gloomy as water.

    "Huo Xianfeng...it's all your fucking fault."

    "..."

    Sa——

    At this moment, a breeze suddenly blew over the ruins, and Jiang Ci's faint breath, mixed with alpha pheromones, and something similar to the omega during pregnancy, instantly spread out.

    The next second, the entire First Legion officers and soldiers smelled it clearly.

    "..."

    "!!!!!!"

    Huh?!!!
