Chapter 2229 Deja Vu
Qu Jianlei understood it very clearly. The focus should be on "other issues in the forbidden area", right?
For a moment, he actually felt a strong bureaucratic atmosphere from the Immortal Ji Ken.
It was a very strange feeling, but it was real, and he couldn't help but frown.
He knew too well what bureaucrats were like: they avoided important issues, were good at making empty promises, used obscure terms, and went back on their words...
The most important thing is that these people not only like to order others to do things, letting you die and I will do the merit, but they are also very good at passing the buck!
He shook his head slightly, "Forget it, if it's just about killing the demon, it's fine, but the rest... we are not interested."
It's not that he was really not interested, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed so long. He just didn't want to explore with this group of people.
Let’s take a look at what happened to the team that went on an expedition with Immortal Bu Hu last time?
Bu Xianzi doesn't have a strong official aura, but she has become like that. Not only does she have an official aura, she also has the will of the Great Lord behind her.
If the team has their own needs, they can go alone. They don't want to be cannon fodder or be in the kitchen!
Lord Qu Ling refused very straightforwardly, but no one else found it strange.
Hongyeling has always taken it as its mission to kill foreign races, and its actions are very unique.
Immortal Ji Ken frowned slightly, a wisp of breath flashed by, and then he nodded slightly.
"No wonder, Lord Qu Ling came from another world. I wonder why he came to Cangwu?"
That's the smell! Qu Jianlei shook his head helplessly, "Daoyou's words make me even less willing to follow you."
Do you want to threaten me with your identity as a visitor from another world? You are almost there!
Now they have started to threaten us. Once we enter the forbidden area, no one knows what tricks the other party will use to force us to be cannon fodder.
Immortal Ji Ken waited for a while, and when he found that the other party had no intention of continuing to speak, he spoke again, "I hope Master Qu Ling can state the purpose of your visit."
"Tsk, what you said is really incomprehensible," Qu Jianlei sneered.
"Why do you have to talk about other worlds... Then I came to save Cangwu, what about you, what are you doing in this world?"
His answer was neither an admission nor a denial. Even if the other party had the will of a great master, he couldn't take advantage of the situation!
However, Ji Ken was really good at officialdom, and he seized on a point and pursued it relentlessly, "So you deny that you are from another world?"
But Qu Jianlei's expression became more and more strange. "Even if I have been to other worlds, what right do you have to interrogate me?"
"Whether I am from this world or not, justice is in the hearts of the people. Why should I explain it to you?"
"You dislike me so much, could it be that... the upper realm really intends to let the demonic disaster destroy Cangwu?"
Upon hearing this, Immortal Ji Ken's face suddenly darkened, "Master Qu Ling, please be careful with your words!"
"It is disrespectful to presume to speculate on the intentions of the higher realms and to wantonly slander them... Have you thought about the consequences?"
"Don't talk nonsense to me," Qu Jianlei snorted coldly, "If you have the energy, you should go deal with the demons."
"I really can't understand why you just sit back and watch the demons wreak havoc, but deliberately come to deal with me... Which side are you on?"
Immortal Ji Ken was slightly stunned. You are really good at turning the tables.
But this matter really cannot be explained. The Houde Realm has indeed been standing idly by and watching the evil situation in Cangwu. There is no way to wash it away.
The upper realm has its own considerations, but it is not convenient to say them directly - if it could be said, it would have said it long ago.
It is an indisputable fact that Hongye Ridge has always been on the front line against the demons.
Although the Great Venerable believed that the other party had an aura from another world, he could not help but feel fearless because of his battle record!
The Immortal Ji Ken knew that he could use the other party's identity as a "visitor from another world" and pursue him relentlessly.
But in this context, how would those bystanders feel?
If he continues to be stubborn and ignores the other party's outstanding record against the demons, the entire Cangwu might be in chaos!
After all, the will of the Great Master is not expressed by the Great Master himself. We can only confirm that the other party has the aura of another world, but cannot conclude that he is really from another world.
He was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Master Qu Ling, it seems like you have some opinions about the upper realm?"
Can't argue anymore, so he just puts the blame on others? Qu Jianlei felt disgusted and a little bit sorry for the other person.
After all, he is a cultivator. He has fallen into bureaucratic thinking, using the same few routines over and over again. Can there be any novelty?
So he didn't bother to pay attention to the other party, "My opinion of the upper world is not important, what is important is how the upper world views Cangwu."
Then he flashed into the battleship and said, "Okay, we're leaving."
"Master Qu Ling, wait a moment," Immortal Bu Hu said, "Where is the information you just mentioned?"
"I won't give it to you anymore," Dogan's voice came from the battleship, "This is my own secret technique. I can give it to anyone I want. So what if I don't give it to you?"
The people outside were relatively stunned when they heard this, and the regimental-level ship suddenly accelerated and disappeared into the distance.
After a few breaths, someone snorted, "This person is disrespectful and should be punished."
The person who spoke was the leader of the six-man bodyguard team.
Bu Hu Zhenxian glanced at him calmly and said, "It's better to stay away from the karma of the lower world."
Qu Jianlei and others left and went directly back to Hongye Ridge.
Various research projects on the Demon Circle Array here are still ongoing.
However, there has been a recent phenomenon that the activity of the captive demons has increased significantly.
The project teams were a little confused about this, so they spread the word and wanted to know the situation in other places.
The information collected showed that the demons in Zhongzhou seemed to have become much more active, but there were too few demons in Dongsheng to observe any difference.
Therefore, cross-state cooperation is still very necessary. In the past, it would be unlikely for them to easily obtain data from Central China.
Qu Jianlei was a little surprised when he learned about the situation. He had just returned from Zhongzhou and had not received this news.
Just thinking about the fact that they were originally in the Forgotten Peninsula, the demonic energy in the surrounding area has always been quite active, it seems... they have ignored it?
No matter what, the good thing about everyone doing their own job is that the people in Zhongzhou didn't notice it, but the project team far away in Hongyeling noticed it.
Qu Jianlei was a little puzzled: another demon was scared away, the demon should have been quieter, why did the situation develop in the opposite direction?
Could it be that the demon that had left its body went to summon external help?
Anyway, he would not underestimate this kind of unusual movement, and told everyone to observe more closely and store more strategic materials in case of a counterattack by the demons.
Once he came back, many things became much easier, and the Hongyeling team was no longer a left-behind team.
They even issued a direct warning to the outside world that the evil situation had not eased and people should be careful about the devil's comeback.
In the following period, there was no disturbance and Hongye Ridge fell into silence again.
On this day, Qu Jianlei entered the cave to see how the ritual vessel absorbed the protection rules.
He felt that it would take about a month. Just as he was sighing, Butterfly started to move, "Boss, I have something to do..."
"If you have something to say, just tell me." Qu Jianlei was a little puzzled. "Are you treating me differently?"
The big-headed butterfly turned around twice more before hesitatingly saying, "This computing unit is showing signs of aging."
"Tsk," Qu Jianlei felt a headache when he heard this. He could make a lot of technological equipment by hand, but the computing unit... was really lacking.
However, it was definitely impossible to return to the Empire now. "How long can we hold out?"
"Thirty to fifty years is no problem," Xiao Hu answered quickly this time, "I'm just giving you an early warning."
"This may not be enough time," Qu Jianlei murmured, as there were a lot of things to do next.
But no matter what, being able to be informed in advance made him feel much more relaxed.
"Well done. Can we rub it by hand? It doesn't matter if the calculation speed is a little slower."
"It's not a matter of being slower," Xiao Hu said helplessly, "the computing speed is tens of billions of times different."
Qu Jianlei was silent for a while before he said, "Let's get started first, and solve the problem of whether there is one or not, and then we can talk about improvement."
This is not a responsible solution, but at least there should be a fallback plan.
The big-headed butterfly turned slowly, and after a while said, "From nothing to something... materials and energy are also problems."
When the team set out from the Empire, they brought a lot of materials, but their industrial base was almost non-existent.
There is no need to elaborate on the difficulty of starting from scratch.
He was able to make laser cannons by hand before because he had prepared a lot of semi-finished industrial raw materials - like pre-prepared meals.
However, Qu Jianlei did not think that he was truly penniless, as at least he had basic production tools such as robotic arms.
"It's not as hard as you think... Do you have any ideas?"
The big-headed butterfly turned around quickly and said, "I was wondering, why can't we use the mysterious side's methods to create computing units?"
Biological computing unit, or magic weapon computing unit? Qu Jianlei thought about it, then nodded slowly, "That's an idea."
Mainly, he thought of Xiao Hu's intentions, "If you can really create a magic weapon computing unit... you will be not far from evolution."
"This... ahem, it's just a side thing," the big-headed butterfly turned intermittently, "the main thing is not to delay things!"
"That makes sense," Qu Jianlei didn't mind his little thought, "I'll try to get back as soon as possible... I can walk on two legs anyway!"
However, although I said that, I really am too busy to handle the team’s work.
Qu Jianlei had just left the cave when Bentley came to him.
He felt that the time was ripe for him to condense his infant, so he planned to go into seclusion. Before doing so, he asked the boss to tell him his fortune one last time.
After Qu Jianlei made his divination, he hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, "The timing is good, but there is no need for a death barrier."
The success rate is indeed not low, but the retreat time will be very long - five to ten years!
When Lao Ben was trying to reach the Golden Core stage in the past, it was not so slow, even taking into account the different levels of difficulty.
At the very least, Mu Yu Ningying had been in seclusion for less than a year, and the other Yuanyings... who all had their Yuanyings in the Empire, had not been in seclusion for that long either.
Qu Jianlei was not sure what went wrong here - could it be that Lei Xiu was a little special?
After all, when Tianyin was trying to reach the golden elixir stage, it took him more than a year.
In fact, deep down, he still felt that Bentley’s accumulation was a little lacking. Don’t you see how many years Mu Yu has endured?
