Bulwark of Light

Chapter 191 Interview

North Island.

Fortress of Kubao.

It was a big cold day, and the snow was swaying. From a distance, a steel-cast barrier stretched for thousands of meters and rose from the ground, guarding the border of the majestic North Continent and the sky above the huge fortress like a giant. Supporting a sky-shielding barrier, the hexagonal prism-shaped transparent floating board like a honeycomb was densely packed to form the hat on the top of the giant’s head.

The term “hat” might not be appropriate…it’s more like a “big umbrella”.

Hundreds of airships are hovering under the big umbrella. Due to some kind of wonderful “energy effect”, they are quietly suspended nine kilometers above the Kubao fortress, and the turbine seems to be stuck in the air. It went dormant and did not run, but the streamlined airship like a sword could miraculously remain stagnant, the tail section did not emit a trace of jet, heat waves, like an old-fashioned ancient shuttle placed on a loom, only Waiting for the moment when the master issues an order.

The Kubao Fortress is the most forward among the trench arcs in Beizhou, and it is the highest point of the curved arch. The far side of the big umbrella is the barren and broken “black spot”.

No one will be able to get here except the soldiers of the northern fortress.

This is the boundary between “Five Continents” and “world”, and it is also the last hope of human beings.

And if you don’t personally garrison the fortress…you won’t know what kind of garrison pressure the Kubao fortress is facing. In the “outside” where the order is collapsed, there are often out-of-control creatures and extraordinary creatures eroded by “black spots”.

It’s the end of another year.

The fortress of Kubao is rare and peaceful. Because of the slowing down of the spread of black spots outside the big umbrella, it has been very peaceful throughout the year… So this year’s fortress feels warm for a long time.

A not-so-tall silhouette stands in the fortress, on a tower that has been built for a long time. This is the highest point with the best sight. Heavy snow falls on the shoulder emblem of his military uniform. superior.

From the back, this silhouette is very vicissitudes.

But in fact…he is not very old, there is a young face under the big-brimmed hat. Whisper.

It was an intangible energy rope, the crackle vibrated the purple lightning, and the end of the rope was tied to a simple and honest-looking Labrador “vicious dog”, with ferocious fangs but sticking out its tongue, Rubbing his head against the youngster’s calf, his face is full of flattery.

The quiet snow viewing didn’t last long.

“Shi–“

There was a fiery sound of steam jets from behind youngster, and then two figures fell, two young “sentinels” of standard stature, one male. A woman with a respectful voice.

“Brigadier General.”

This man and woman are wearing dark red armors, which look like a pair of precision that sticks to the outline of the human body from a distance The skeleton, except in the caudal vertebrae, forearm, and crotch, has distinct fumaroles.

The technology of attaching armor has long been developed in the fortress… It has evolved from little by little from the initial awkwardness, and now it has developed into a very practical real battle skill. Layered armor can not only increase strength, but also perform short-distance “travel”, “flying” and “diving”.

This thin layer of armor is a powerful fortress on the fragile fleshy body of human beings.

Of course…a strong enough powerhouse doesn’t need this armor.

“The Snowforged Archduke would like you to return to the forward city. The three-year term of the Kubao Fortress has ended… The cabinet will send a new garrison to guard the Kubao for Queen Your Majesty…”

After the deep sea links the five continents, the federation is unprecedentedly cohesive. However… due to the independence of the five continents, each continent has a relatively unique effect of Shadow Transformation.

Because of its unique geographical environment and heavy responsibilities and missions, Beizhou has the most unique “power system”… So words such as “Queen” and “Grand Duke” that are dusted in the dictionary, It can only be heard in Beizhou Fortress.

The sentry’s voice suddenly froze.

Because the young man with the dog raised his hand.

The intangible dog leash was released by him, and the crackle’s electric light exploded softly in the air. At the moment when the dog leash was released, the eyes of the two young sentries were obviously a little flustered. They are very aware of what kind of stubborn the person who came to Kubao Fortress to report and request this time. The decree to return to the “Advance City” has arrived here more than once, and the results of all previous reporters have been unsuccessful. .

Of course…they were vague and reluctant to go into the details of what happened in between.

The moment the leash was released——

The simple and harmless Labrador rushed forward, showing one’s ferocious appearance in an instant.

“Bang! Bang!”

The fumarole of the outer armor blasted two deep charred holes in the snow on the roof of the tower, and the two sentries hurriedly hung up. At high altitude, they were not harmed…because the young brigadier general let go and then shot again, holding the rope firmly in the air. After the electric light flickered, the vicious dog flew for a distance and was pulled back again, thrown to the ground, deaf. Pulling his head, he went back to his master in a daze.

The two Sentinels from Advance City are in shock.

At the moment when the rope was loosened, the enormous pressure surged like a tidal wave.

It’s hard to imagine the source of stress for everything, just a…dog.

Is that really a dog?

“Lin Lin’s command… We don’t mean to offend…” The sentry Brace Oneself apologized, and really didn’t dare to fall back to where he was.

Lin Lin led the dog, looked up at the two figures in the air, smiled and waved, “You two are lucky, do you know why?”

“This kind of ‘visit’ always comes four or five times a year, but those guys visit me in the attic in the fortress. The attic has always been very quiet, and there is a good custom of closing the door when entering the room, so I will put it after the door is closed. Dog, they have no way to escape, I’m curious what they will say to you when they return to Qianjin City?”

Lin Lin looked at the strange expressions of the two sentries, indifferently said: “Or… …don’t say anything?”

It seems so.

“Do you know why your beloved Archduke Snow Casting never came to Kubao Fortress to find me in person?” Lin Lin calmly said: “Because he didn’t dare, because he knew it…call me back to move forward. The city is nothing more than a few things, either to go to Central Continent for further study, to go to Western Continent to make friends with Bright City, or to go to Nagano City to meet future cooperative allies. When I get to Qianjin City, I will be the glory of the northern fortress, so he thinks… the significance of doing these things is greater than the significance of being stationed in the fortress of Kubao.”

The two young sentinels listened carefully, The expressions of both of them gradually became solemn.

“So…what do you think?”

The sudden question made both of them dumbfounded and looked at each other in blank dismay…I didn’t expect that the brigadier general would suddenly Ask this one.

They came under the orders of Duke Snowforge.

This should be an unconditional crowd.

The words come to my lips…but I can’t get them out.

But even if they were born in Qianjin City and received systematic education since childhood, they longed to go to the fortress front, sign confidentiality agreements in the north, and those “soldiers” who knew the truth of the world, even if they did not awaken extraordinary. Even with their abilities, they can’t wait to fill their own flesh and blood into the expanding black hole. If this can ease the pressure on the border fortress a little bit, they will do it without the slightest hesitation.

the moth flies into the flame.

So what?

As the warriors of the fort have always been.

“My commander… I respect you.”

The female sentinel slowly landed on the roof of the tower. She cautiously stared at the rope in Lin Lin’s hand, and then sincerely He gave his own answer: “It is indeed a blessing to have you in the fortress of Kubao.”

The male sentinel was also sighed, “If you refuse…we will return to the forward city the same way. Grand Duke I will definitely be disappointed.”

“If Qianjin City needs me, my elder sister will speak up.”

Lin Lin said: “At that time, Mr. Zhuxue will personally Go here. I will choose to leave with him.”

After saying this, a piece of snow falling from his shoulders suddenly shattered.

This is a random fragmentation.

If someone can stop time, they will find… this small fragmented snowflake, after bursting, spreads into countless pieces of fine snowflakes, as if forming a circular shape. The arcs delineate a floor above the tower.

The two sentries pupil shrink.

They sensed something was wrong, and then wanted to ride the outer armor into the air, but this time, there was a low-pitched sound of misfiring from the jet hole… It wasn’t because of lack of energy, but a strong will. above the tower.

Flight, lift-off, hovering is prohibited.

It started with that piece of snow.

Countless snowflakes fell into the realm, falling at an accelerated rate, without any external force, and there was no strong pressure, but after this order took effect silently, this realm no longer had any The “living” and “dead” lifted off.

“Then… I’ll trouble the two of you to go back the same way.” Lin Lin said softly, “Before leaving, the two of you still have no experience with the traditional project of the Sentinel of Qianjin City. This can be considered me. I would like to ask the two of you to send greetings to Grand Duke Zhuxue.”

“Just say… Niu Niu misses him very much.”

Niu Niu… This is a very simple and honest-sounding name.

Just like this squatting “good Labrador dog”.

Lin Lin loosened the rope in his hand.

next moment.

A purple lightning flashed past——

The two sentries tried their best to drive the jets of the armored armor. The black smoke burst out, obviously it was completely collapsed, and the next moment the two were knocked down by the purple lightning.

The Labrador Retriever grew up with that big fangs and big mouth——

Lin Lin couldn’t bear to look back, he jumped gently, fell from the tower, splashed A puddle of snow.

There are more and more people awakening extraordinary abilities in Five Continents… But there are still very few awakened extraordinary creatures, this Labrador “villain” is as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn One of the horns.

Without the ropes… the buffalo has a quirk.

“Ah—”

The male sentinel who was thrown to the ground by the big dog burst into a desperate cry, he felt a huge tongue rubbing back and forth on his face, The imposing manner of this big dog is extremely frightening, and the action after throwing himself down is extremely fierce, as if to swallow himself fiercely.

The big, smooth tongue tucked away the barbs… Apparently the big dog had no ill will.

He just wanted to lick himself.

But the force of this “licking”… is too much!

His head was almost licked off!

The female sentinel sat on the ground and saw this scene, her pretty face deathly white with fright.

After this one is licked, the next one will be…

…

…

falling from the tower Lin Lin, who just stood up, suddenly frowned…

There was a strong sense of shock between his eyebrows.

“An emergency meeting again?”

No.

This feeling is completely different from having an emergency meeting.

It was an incomparable… absorbing power that burst out in the Divine Sea of one’s own essence in an instant.

The usual emergency meeting…is a call.

And this moment.

It is a conscription.

Lin Lin’s expression was a little pale, he walked quickly towards the quiet pavilion where he was resting, and at the same time blew an extremely loud whistle, the Labrador in the distance heard the sound without hesitation. It rushed in the direction of the tower, stepped on the vertical stone wall of the tower and swooped down, returning to the owner in three or five seconds.

The forbidden area on the top of the tower was instantly revoked.

The slumped female Sentinel is still in a state of shock.

Today, she finally saw… what the painful experience those seniors who returned to Advance City were unwilling to say.

It is quite possible that I am the only one “survivor”.

The male sentinel wrapped in saliva and mucus struggled to sit up. He wiped the mucus from his face vigorously, and hissed with difficulty: “Before I set off, a senior reminded me that Grand Duke Casting Snow. When I sent this vicious dog under the command of the brigadier in the early years…it has not yet been domesticated…”

So, the brigadier general is so concerned about the personal invitation of “Duke Cast Snow”…

The female The sentry looked stunned, as if he understood something.

“No! The mission has not been completed yet, so we just returned to Qianjin City. What should others think of us?” >

After speaking, he looked at his companions.

The female sentinel gritted her teeth and said, “My commander has returned to the attic…Are you sure you want to do it again?”

The painful memories of being suppressed by the vicious dog flooded into my heart instantly. , the one who opened the mouth to propose only felt a sour taste in his nose and mouth. He couldn’t help retching for a while, and finally squeezed out a tear full of unwillingness, pain, and remorse, gritted his teeth, “One more time… It’s probably still useless. We can only bear the humiliation and report to the Grand Duke on the way back.”

“…I agree.”

…

…

p>

Outside the attic door.

A vicious Labrador puppy was lying cross-legged. It did not follow the owner back indoors, but stayed in front of the door. At this moment, the deaf-pulled ears were slightly raised, and the dog’s face was a little weird.

“Boom-“

An invisible sonic boom sounded in the room.

At the moment when he returned to the attic, Lin Lin clenched his fists, and a layer of invisible restrictions suddenly spread.

A small area spread out, wrapping the quiet room completely independently, and after securing it… He fought the omen shocks in his mind with all his might.

The emergency meeting in the past was like a reminder in the Divine Sea.

Participate if you can.

Can’t attend…that’s fine.

But this time, it’s not the same.

The powerful oppression is forcing itself every moment, building a spiritual link… Faster, faster!

He tried desperately to refuse.

But… it failed in the end!

“hong” sound.

It seemed like a bomb had exploded in his mind. Lin Lin didn’t feel pain, but felt an unprecedented liberation. He opened his eyes and found himself sitting on the side of the long table with Conference all over his eyes. Hall dim, scarlet lights.

this time  … Almost all the seats were filled with people, but the faces were still dark, everyone still hid each other’s identities, and no one knew who was sitting across from the long table.

Not just me.

The will of all people, in this brief moment, has been forcibly requisitioned, no matter if their time zone is day or night, no matter how far their consciousness is from this Sea Territory.

It’s like an ancient emperor summoning his courtiers.

beyond a thousand li.

Also interview.

“This is…”

Lin Lin subconsciously looked at the first seat of this closed spiritual Conference Hall——

All eyes were on to one place.

At the head of the vacant long table, at the end, there was originally a tight and seamless wall… But at this moment, a portal slowly emerged on the wall, and countless ancient talismans and words were there. The edge of the portal appears, transforms, and interweaves.

And this moment.

When the key sounded to open the door.

A ray of light appeared in this closed, locked “Conference Hall”.

It was a teenager.

A boy who is not tall and looks a little thin.
