Six Hundred and Twelve Under the Starry Sky
Bac Giang Province and Dameng Province are two provinces.
But in fact, the distance from Beijiang Jiangbin City to Dameng Ulan City is only about 500 kilometers, and it only takes a few hours to drive.
What is even more frightening is that in Dameng Province, the distance from the eastern city to the western city can even be more than 3,000 kilometers, and it can take three days to drive...
Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan took the high-speed train to the provincial capital of Yanzhao, where they met senior He Xu.
But Jiang Xiao commandeered Xia Yan's Land Rover again and walked with Erwei on the endless road.
With only two people present, Erwei told Jiang Xiao something about the current situation of the Northwest Night Watch Army.
Facts have proved that the Mount Eye incident in northwest China, the Mount Eye incident and the Dark Temple incident in Central Asian countries are still continuing. From the analysis of big data, the frequency of these holy ruins of different dimensions being directly opened on the earth is no longer increasing, but In constant decline.
But the bad news is that although the frequency of opening of holy ruins is decreasing, the scope is expanding. Centered on Central Asia, the opening of the Holy Market has spread to more and more regions.
This is a very bad signal. Land is the home that human beings rely on for survival. People lost control of the ocean many years ago, and now...
In fact, even if there is no such thing as a different dimension, even if this world is a normal world, humans have never had any control over the ocean.
And in this world full of star power, the alien beasts that exist in the ocean are even more complicated than people can imagine.
The only thing that has allowed human social civilization to continue until now is that most of the ocean beasts will not take the initiative to attack land. They have their own lives and their own order in their own world.
This should also be a gift from God. The characteristics of ocean beasts are exactly opposite to those of land beasts.
On land, you can find friendly extradimensional creatures, but they are few and far between.
In the ocean, the vast majority of extradimensional creatures are friendly, at least judging from feedback from coastal cities around the world.
But everyone knows that the real overlords are always deep in the ocean, at the end of the deep sea that is invisible to your naked eyes.
There is a saying that goes well: If you don’t go to the hospital, you will never know how many patients there are.
If you don’t understand the ocean,
Surviving only under the protection of the country and within the country, you will have a lot of fun in the Star Pet Amusement Park. You can never imagine how "turbulent" the outside world is.
The deep sea is a real restricted area. Even Jiang Xiao now can never set foot in it.
But there are some things that you cannot change if you realize them. You can only bear them and endure them.
This world is far from as peaceful as it seems on the surface. Miraculous laws and strange balances allow the earth to still exist and humans to survive. Jiang Xiao has no time to feel compassion for others. He can only work hard to grow step by step.
"Treating the symptoms but not the root cause." Erwei suddenly said.
"Huh?" Jiang Xiao turned to look at the co-pilot.
The car was indeed spacious. The second tail slid the passenger's seat to the end and adjusted the seat back to a comfortable angle. She stretched her legs, overlapped them, and rested them on the glove box in front of the passenger.
Jiang Xiao hurriedly turned her head and continued to look at the road ahead. Due to the hot weather, she was still wearing denim shorts, so such a scene could easily distract Jiang Xiao.
Erwei said: "We have been passively defending, opening one holy ruins and destroying another. Opening a space gate, we enter it and destroy the holy ruins. Treating the symptoms but not the root cause."
Jiang Xiao frowned slightly and nodded silently.
Erwei continued: "With Central Asia as the center and the surrounding areas, the frequency of opening of holy ruins is gradually decreasing. This is a good phenomenon. But the scope of the impact is getting wider and wider. Not every country is like us. The problem can be solved as soon as possible, and if this continues, we will all know the outcome."
The gate to the extradimensional space blooming on the earth, and the extradimensional space behind the gate, are excellent buffer zones. But if there is no such buffer zone and the Holy Ruins are opened directly on the earth, the situation will of course take a turn for the worse.
Erwei said: "The ultimate goal above is for me to lead an independent light-chasing group. You know what this means."
Jiang Xiao said: "Fighting fires everywhere?"
Erwei said that sentence again: "Treating the symptoms but not the root cause."
Jiang Xiaodao: "You also said that the frequency of the opening of the Holy Market is decreasing. When the frequency drops to 0, it will be the root cause."
Erwei thought for a while and said, "I hope so."
Jiang Xiaodao: "You know I went to the upper dimension to find someone, not just to find someone. Those were just my words of comfort to Han Jiangxue."
Erwei: "Yeah."
Jiang Xiao: "Take the students as an example. The creatures in the upper dimensions are only at the gold level. Those vigil soldiers who accidentally entered it are fully capable of surviving there, and they have been living there for a long, long time."
Erwei: "Yeah."
Jiang Xiao continued: "We have reason to believe that many years of survival will give them a profound understanding of the upper dimensions, and when I find them, I will bring back all the information they have learned."
Erwei: "Yeah."
Jiang Xiao looked at the road leading to the sky in front of him and said softly: "In fact, I don't need to bring the information back, because the information between me and the bait is interoperable. If they have any ideas, if they still can't get involved, can't I will not hesitate to cooperate with them to complete the area they explore, no matter what the result is."
Erwei raised the backrest of the seat, turned his head, and looked at Jiang Xiao, his eyes filled with complex expressions.
Jiang Xiaodao: "I believe those soldiers are still alive. Their strength is there and there is no reason to die. I believe they are strong enough and will survive in that difficult environment. I also believe that they are waiting for me when they live there. Such people appear."
Erwei stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Jiang Xiao's head: "Life is made up of choices one after another. Your choices have made you who you are now. Doing the best within your capabilities is enough. Don't Putting too much pressure on yourself.”
Jiang Xiao suddenly smiled and said: "It turns out that you also have the potential to be a political commissar. I thought you were just someone who can give orders."
The four-hour drive passed quickly, and the vehicle slowly stopped in the wilderness 40 kilometers west of Ulan City.
In this wilderness, a military camp rises from the ground. The interdimensional space training point that is half businessman and half military has become the norm in this world. There are many expensive vehicles in the parking lot, which are obviously the vehicles of the star warriors who come here to practice. .
The third-level star is the highest level in a series of different-dimensional spaces "under the starry sky" that is open to the public. The fourth-level star below is not open to the public.
After passing the two levels, Jiang Xiao and Erwei walked into the reception hall.
Here, there was already a soldier waiting.
This soldier was about 28 or 9 years old. He was quite majestic, mighty and tall, about 1.8 meters tall. He was wearing a dark vigil uniform. Facing Erwei, he stood at attention and gave a standard military salute.
After Erwei returned the salute, the man withdrew his military salute and said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Sir."
Erwei spoke a name as an introduction: "Hou Zihou."
Jiang Xiao stretched out his palm and shook hands with Hou Zihou, feeling his rough and strong hands.
Erwei: "Let's go."
Hou Zihou: "Yes."
Under the guidance of the night watch soldiers, Jiang Xiao and the two went directly into the night watch army's room in the building without going through complicated procedures, changed into a night watch military uniform, and entered the different-dimensional portal.
Stepping into the overlapping space doors, Jiang Xiao entered another world.
Here... it's worthy of being under the stars.
Jiang Xiao felt the temperature of the summer night, but it was not too hot, and even a little cool.
The first thing Jiang Xiao saw was the vast and bright galaxy in the sky.
The second thing I saw was the endless grassland under the bright starry sky. On the grassland, dots of fireflies were dancing gently.
It adds a touch of beauty to this midsummer night under the stars.
Even though Jiang Xiao didn't perceive star-like skills, the galaxy was so dazzling that it added a lot of brightness to this beautiful space.
The extra-dimensional creatures here start with silver and top out with gold, but now it seems that this place is not as dangerous as imagined.
Vaguely, Jiang Xiao actually heard the singing. The singing was melodious, echoing in the grassland and under the starry sky.
Jiang Xiao looked around and saw a complex of several wooden houses not far away. Huge bonfires were scattered around the complex.
There should be a supply point for the Guardian Legion, but around one of the bonfires, there was a circle of men and women, singing loudly, singing and dancing.
The crackling and splashing sparks of the bonfire blended with the fireflies on the midsummer night. Looking at the faces of the people reflected in the bonfire, the picture turned out to be so beautiful.
Hou Zihou's voice came from behind: "Their team of twelve defeated a large group of ghost wolves one day ago without any casualties. That battle even alarmed both the Night Watch Army and the Guardian Army. They left today. day."
Erwei nodded slightly and said, "You can just send it here."
Hou Zihou suddenly said: "Sir, brothers, I heard that you need to hunt ghost tigers. We are good at making decisions and use our off-duty rotation to kill some for you."
Hearing this, Erwei frowned slightly and turned to look at Hou Zihou.
Hou Zihou took out a handful of Ghost Tiger Star Beads from his pocket and said, "I hope this can save you some time. We haven't seen you for a long time. If possible, we hope you can come and visit."
Looking at Hou Zihou's sincere eyes, Jiang Xiao smiled and said to Erwei: "I thought you had no friends. I thought your circle was limited to Weiyu Team."
Hou Zihou said: "She has comrades, a group of soldiers whose lives she saved."
Erwei said: "Leave."
Hou Zihou hesitated for a moment, then put a handful of star beads into Jiang Xiao's hand, and while retreating, he said, "We are still stationed at the original place."
With that said, Hou Zihou turned and left.
Jiang Xiao stepped forward, gently touched Erwei's arm with his arm, and said, "I know you are not good at expressing emotions, but you are too cold."
Erwei's face was a little stiff and he didn't respond.
Jiang Xiao looked at the group of people singing, dancing, and laughing beside the bonfire in the distance, and said, "Is it because you are afraid of participating in such an occasion? This looks very happy."
Erwei opened his long legs and walked out.
Jiang Xiao followed and said, "You just informed them yesterday, and now, I'm holding about 30 Ghost Tiger Star Beads in my hands. They really want to see you."
Erwei: "That's your fault. Our original plan was to bring your bait here, but you changed the plan temporarily."
Jiang Xiao: "Why don't you want to see your old friend?"
Erwei sighed deeply and looked at the dancing fireflies on the grassland: "They know the situation in the northwest, and they will want to follow me to the front line."
Jiang Xiao fell silent for a while, then said: "Your Light Chaser team just lacks people, and you know these people well."
Erwei said softly: "Because I know the basics, I know that only two people are suitable for my special team. What will the remaining soldiers think?"
Jiang Xiao said with a smile: "I think your perspective of thinking about the problem is not right. Even if you select 1 out of 100 people, the real soldiers will only feel the glory, rather than having an unbalanced mentality, and may even urge them to be more Work hard to grow.”
Hearing this, Erwei suddenly stopped.
Jiang Xiao was counting the star beads with his head down when he bumped into her back. He hurriedly held the star beads and raised his head, only to find that Erwei had turned around and looked directly at him.
Jiang Xiao's heart tightened, and he stuttered: "As for how to mobilize personnel, that is a matter for superiors, um..."
Erwei slowly said: "Change the bait and absorb the star beads."
Jiang Xiao nodded repeatedly: "Oh."
