Edge of Pure Land

Chapter 39 Lu Buer: It’s my turn to show off

Long Que came to the rooftop in a wheelchair. The fire that shot up into the sky illuminated his face, and the mirage in the distance was reflected in his eyes, like a hellish scene.

His eyes trembled slightly, showing confusion and horror.

"If there is an unknown evolutionary chain in this world, it can only be the Holy Mountain. Sure enough, the Holy Mountain has mutated again. Those waves of White Walkers are probably corpse-eating cultists who took advantage of the mutations in the Holy Mountain. manufactured things.”

 He said softly: "These people are creating a disaster."

Even Qiangwei and Damon rarely see him show this kind of look. Even though he is no longer as powerful as before, he can still maintain a calm demeanor because he has experienced countless lives and deaths over the years. Concentration is deeply engraved in the heart.

 For this kind of person, there is only one situation that can make him lose his temper.

 That is to relive the nightmare of that year.

At this moment, they finally understood why the superior paid so much attention to the matter of the Corpse Cult.

 It turned out to be because of the Holy Mountain.

 Longque’s earliest guess was correct.

The tide of ghosts is indeed related to the Holy Mountain.

 “Is this the legendary holy mountain?”

Lu Fuji also looked at the sky in the distance. The mark on the palm of his right hand was moving crazily, as if he was cheering for joy or warning him that something terrible was coming.

And the appearance of this holy mountain is exactly the same as what Lu Sixian painted!

“Yes, this is the Holy Mountain, long time no see.”

Longque closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he had regained his composure. He chuckled and said, "Speaking of which, this is also my fate with you. If it weren't for me, I would be worried that the changes in the Holy Mountain would lead to the wave of White Walkers. "

Lu Buer shrugged: "Is it the fate of the patients?"

 Longque smiled silently.

 “Speaking of which, what exactly is in the Holy Mountain?”

 This is the first time Lu Fuji has asked this question.

Longque was silent for a moment and waved his hand.

 “Don’t ask, it’s not good for you.”

 He lit a cigarette for himself and puffed away the smoke.

His eyes reflected the scene of hell, slightly showing the vicissitudes of life.

 Lu Fuji no longer asked for trouble.

This man obviously has a story, but unfortunately he has no desire to talk about it.

Humbling sound.

　　The terrifying artillery fire exploded, and the whole world seemed to be shaking.

 “City-burning cannon, a weapon created by Noah’s mechanism.”

Longque said calmly: "In this era, we still need the power of technology. Including the soul blades that evolvers need in the third layer, they also need their mechanics to make them."

Lu Fuji was also shocked when he saw the scene of thousands of cannons firing. They were countless burning meteors piercing the night sky, and the firelight burst out in an instant, illuminating the dark city.

 “Is this because of an enemy attack?”

Lu Fuji thought this was too scary.

 The White Walkers' counterattack came so quickly.

  I don’t know what species is so awesome.

“It’s not an enemy attack, it should be an explosion caused by overheating of the city-burning cannon.”

  Longque waved his hand: "It's just a normal operation."

Lu Fuji was really shocked: "It doesn't matter that the shells are disposable, but the artillery itself is also disposable? Isn't this a bit too childish?"

Longque glanced at him: "The artillery may also be disposable."

Those artillerymen operated the city-burning cannon once, and they probably wouldn't do it a second time.

  basically all people will suffer from stress disorder.

　　　…”

Shika Fuji's eyes twitched: "So, with such a terrifying bombardment, the wave of White Walkers should have been successfully blocked, right? Even if they can't be completely wiped out, one third can still be wiped out?"

 Longque frowned: "No, I think it failed."

A huge pillar of holy light shone through the dark clouds and fell from the sky. Thousands of strands of holy light spread horizontally, forming a giant barrier that stretched across the sky and the earth, stretching between the sky and the earth.

On the sky, a huge face vaguely appeared, like the Holy Spirit.

 Lu Fuji felt tremendous pressure.

That face looks familiar, it seems to be the mask of the high priest!

"The high priest has taken action, which means that the situation on the front line is very bad. But it is normal to think that the white ghosts on the front line have probably mutated. Not only the lowest level of dead ghosts, there are probably other unknown ones. The existence of high-level White Walkers all belong to the evolutionary chain of the Creation Mother Nest.”

Long Que said quietly: "Fortunately, we have made some progress here."

Lu Fuji was thoughtful: "If such a big thing happened, why didn't you report the situation? If the city fell, wouldn't everyone die together?"

Longque was silent for a moment and sighed: "I can't do this. First of all, my popularity in this city is not very good. Secondly, others will think that I have ulterior motives. What's more, even if I report these things , it doesn’t do me any good either.”

 He paused: "This city doesn't welcome me, but it can welcome you."

　　Shika Fuji was stunned for a moment.

“The battle on the front line is unfavorable, probably because of the emergence of this new kind of white ghost. Their weapons cannot effectively target the hardened ones, so this battle will be very difficult.”

Long Que said calmly: "I will have people work with you to bring these corpse-eating cultists back to the military headquarters. I will keep the remaining ones to do some research. If I can find an effective way to deal with hardening, I will I’ll tell you to come over immediately, you will be my spokesperson.”

 After speaking, he handed over a silver badge.

"This is?"

“Certificate of attorney from the Abnormality Supervision Bureau.”

 “Oh, from now on I am also a judge?”

  Lu Fuji said with great interest: "No evidence is needed to arrest someone?"

Longque smiled silently: "As long as you are strong enough, it will be no problem."

 “But before you go back.”

 He suddenly raised his fist: "There is one more thing to do."

With a bang, Lu Buer was knocked to the ground, his head buzzing.

 What the **** are you!

Longque smiled and explained: "If you come back without any injuries, how can you show how difficult it is for you to help solve the case? You have to let the people above see you bleeding and sacrificing, then they will give you resources. Originally , Today’s action is to make you suffer a little bit, but I didn’t expect that you are much stronger than I thought, and you were actually not injured at all..."

Lu Fuji got up with a confused look on his face, thinking that it made sense.

“That one punch is certainly not enough, how about a few more?”

  He raised his head and said: "Good daughter, come and stab daddy!"

Damon and Qiangwei were both stunned.

I'm afraid this is not a lunatic!

  ·

  ·

The troops on the front line of Wuzhen encountered an unprecedented nightmare today.

The invincible city-burning cannon lost its effect for the first time, because the moment the cannon fell from the sky, those terrifying White Walkers actually evolved metal skeleton-like shields, and they uniformly raised their shields to block like soldiers in ancient shield battles. !

 The gunfire hit the shield, and the horrific explosion blew the White Walkers away.

However, these White Walkers seem to have evolved hard armor, and their defense has increased more than ten times. The power of the explosion is not enough to break the armor, and can only make them burn.

More than that, there are even more terrifying beings in the wave of ghosts.

It was a burly monster like a giant spirit, with devil-like horns on its head, and its strong body was also covered in hard armor. It could release terrifying thorns to protect itself like huge wings, and it could also be used once and for all. Shoot out thorns and fight against the cannons in the sky.

 If the artillery shells cannot cause effective damage, then the bullets will lose their effect. The troops who wanted to capture the samples were disturbed by numerous overlapping screams due to the appearance of the mirage, and the helicopter crashed on the spot.

That is the dirge of the White Walkers.

So many White Walkers gathered together that their dirge was lethal.

 At present, only these two kinds of ghosts have appeared, which disrupted the entire battle situation.

 A large number of ordinary White Walkers came towards them, and with the help of difficult things like earth dragons, the nearest wave was less than eight kilometers away from Wuzhen. Fortunately, they were stopped by the enemy troops.

Of course, had it not been for the miracle performed by the high priest, they would have suffered heavy casualties.

At this moment, a natural barrier of holy light blocked the way of the White Walkers.

 It also gave the military some time to breathe.

As the commander-in-chief of the City Guards, Yuan Lie was directly called to the sacrificial hall.

 Inevitable is a meal of accountability.

 As the supreme commander of the Linhai City Military Department, he must bear the first responsibility.

 “Who can tell me what is going on?”

Yuan Lie's old secretary roared at the door of the military building: "Why didn't the scouts sent out find that this was a new species of White Walkers? Why did these White Walkers undergo such amazing changes and no one discovered it? Why are you responsible? The war situation in the entire war zone is turning a blind eye to the changes in the entire ecological environment? Why are you so slow to respond? "

This old secretary has been in the military department for many years and has accumulated a very high prestige, so he is qualified to say: "The former general secretary's great reputation will be ruined by you fools! You have eyes that are long in the past." On your butt? Have your brains been eaten by dogs? And you, Yuan Qing! Do you think you are here to be a soldier?"

 He raised his withered right hand: "I'll slap you to death with one **** slap!"

The disgraced officers all stood before him to be lectured.

Yuan Qing is the first one. Her short chestnut hair is stuck to her face, which is covered with dust and blood. Her soaked military uniform is also stained with corpse liquid. Even though she is curvy, she is unattractive.

 Her fists were clenched, obviously furious.

 In fact, they can refute it.

 Because they had inspected the ecology of the war zone in advance.

 The report from the Abnormality Supervision Bureau did not reveal any abnormalities.

 Until what happened to Aoki.

 But it was too late.

 It’s just that no one dares to make excuses for themselves.

 In the military department, only incompetent people make excuses for themselves.

 “Look at those soldiers being carried away on stretchers!”

The old secretary roared angrily: "Those are all your soldiers! Because of your stupidity, they are all dead now! After they are buried, all of you will kneel in front of their tombstones! You must repent! Repent of yourselves." Incompetent and stupid!”

The chaplains in the medical department were sweating profusely. This night had made them completely dizzy. Stretchers were brought out one by one. Most of them were injured. Some were seriously injured in urgent need of first aid, and some had lost their vital signs. of the deceased.

It has been a long time since the military department suffered such heavy casualties. After many newly arrived soldiers experienced this battle, they went through the discharge formalities without saying a word.

Yuan Qing bit her red lips, lowered her head and said, "I understand."

 The majors also lowered their heads in response, but their hearts were filled with joy.

　　This time the Yuan family is going to suffer a lot.

Although, it won’t have any impact on my family at the headquarters.

 But in Linhai City, their power will definitely be hit.

The competition among the officers was also very fierce, until the young lady from the Yuan family parachuted in to grab the merit, it made everyone feel like they were studying with the prince.

 Especially Kashiwagi, his position was directly taken away.

 The reason why the old secretary was angry was not just because of the deaths of the soldiers.

 A considerable part of the reason is that the original family is likely to lose power this time.

 The general director and deputy general of the military department are like the pope and the deputy pope.

 Infighting and intrigue.

The original family has no brains for party disputes, but they maintain their dominant position by relying on their impressive fighting capabilities.

 However, after today, it is very likely that things will be different.

 As soon as he thought about this, the old secretary became even more angry and started to make witty remarks.

 The officers were scolded bloody.

At this moment, a guy sneaked in from outside.

 “Stop!”

Kashiwagi saw the visitor, his eyes were cold: "Where have you been?"

As soon as Lu Fuji came back, he realized that something big had happened at the military headquarters. From a distance, he saw an old man spitting out sweet fragrance. In order to avoid getting angry, he chose to sneak away.

 Unexpectedly, it was discovered.

 As a result, before he could open his mouth, the instructor gave him a slap in the face.

 “Desert!”

Kashiwagi said coldly: "Do you know what happened to the military headquarters today? The fighting situation on the front line was so tragic, but you left the military headquarters privately to avoid the war?"

 In fact, neither Shika Fuji nor Kashiwagi has spoken. As soldiers and instructors, they have only met a few times.

 But because of Luther's death, Kashiwagi's suspicions came to his head.

 Otherwise, we wouldn’t be targeted repeatedly.

 Whether it was the original meeting, people from the Law Enforcement Bureau asked to observe it.

The Law Enforcement Bureau appears when the corpse-eating cultists are being apprehended today.

 There is a high probability that Kashiwagi and the people behind him are doing something secretly.

So Kashiwagi saw the young man returning to the military base and immediately started to find trouble.

Of course it’s also to stop the old secretary from spraying.

 At this moment, all the officers, including Yuan Qing, turned their heads and looked over.

Lu Fuji raised his bandaged head and said seriously: "Instructor Kashiwagi's words are wrong. I received an order from above to assist in the investigation. How could I become a deserter? Although I am not on the front line, I am also Contributing to the war effort on the front line.”

He paused: "I am doing something, unlike some people who are obviously useless on the front line and end up getting scolded here..."

 His voice became lower and lower at the last sentence, turning into a whisper.

Hong Kong’s face was getting uglier and uglier after he heard it clearly.

The officers also exclaimed inwardly.

 Who are you talking about?

Even Yuan Qing’s eyes twitched.

“I think you want to leave the front line under the guise of assisting in the investigation?”

Kashiwagi said coldly: "Where is your contribution?"

Lu Fuji smiled slightly: "I'm just waiting for this sentence."

 He clapped his hands and said, "Brothers, bring me all the witnesses!"
