Chapter 1405 Jörmungandr
"I can't do it." Chu Zihang said bluntly, not because he couldn't handle it mentally, but because of his strength and his bloodline that didn't allow him to promise anything.
Taking a step back, even if his bloodline did not go out of control when the plane crashed, now in his heyday, he would risk his life to fight with a next-generation dragon species. Without considering the consequences and costs, He may kill this second-generation species, but he will also pay a corresponding price. But the first-generation species? The four noble monarchs? This is beyond his capabilities.
If he couldn't do it, he just couldn't do it. Chu Zihang looked at Li Qiuluo silently.
"If it were a head-on battle, let alone you, not even Li Hueyue, or even that Lin Nian, would be able to kill her quickly before the damage was amplified. After all, she is the Dragon King, a legend and myth that lives on in the years. "Li Qiuluo said softly, "But what if it is a sneak attack? It does not require killing her, but uses a sneak attack to seriously injure her and give up the terrorist plan that she may have been preparing for a long time."
Chu Zihang was stunned by this new idea and consideration proposed by Li Qiuluo.
"If the Dragon King wants to wake up under the eyes of the world and take revenge on the entire human society and show her power and power, then she must be prepared to usher in the endless destruction of the entire surface world. Not only the revenge of the mixed race, this Destruction also includes all the malice accumulated by mankind in history - those numerous kinetic energy weapons and atomic weapons will be aimed at her. Once the damage and threat caused by her exceeds a threshold under the attention of the world, then mankind will bear no regard. Revenge at all costs is natural," Li Qiuluo said calmly.
"I believe that the Dragon King's wisdom must have taken this into consideration. I won't talk about her confidence and capital. The current situation does not give us time to dig out so many secrets. Considering it from the most fundamental point of view, if she is prepared To show up in front of the world means that she has accumulated enough confidence and confidence to face everything that is bound to come - then if we just let her no longer have the courage and strength to face and fight against the entire surface world, she Will they give up the current plan and be forced to continue dormant for a while, thus giving us a buffer period so that we can redesign the dragon-slaying plan and put everything on the right track? "
Chu Zihang listened in silence to Li Qiuluo's analysis and thoughts. He had to admit that her thinking direction was correct and calm, but this could not hide that this idea was like a castle in the air and difficult to realize - a sneak attack to severely damage a Dragon King was really easy to say. , how different is this from the difficulty of killing a Dragon King head-on?
"The most difficult knife to guard against is always one stabbed from an invisible angle by one's allies." Li Qiuluo said.
Chu Zihang raised his head and looked into the woman's golden eyes, unable to understand the meaning of this sentence.
"Who do you think we are in the eyes of the King of Earth and Mountain?"
Chu Zihang opened his mouth but said nothing and fell into silence.
"It may be a joke, it may be an enemy, or it may be nothing." Li Qiuluo said, "But that is just us in the eyes of the Dragon King. Chu Zihang, I have reason to believe that you are special, which is why I came to you." reason.”
Her words made Chu Zihang feel stunned for a moment, and then Li Qiuluo opened an encrypted document on his phone. It was exactly the document that the "mysterious ally" she called "Jiuzhou" sent to 'Jiuzhou'. In fact, there were more than The photo in front of the South Railway Station.
"Did you know that the King of Earth and Mountain actually awakened earlier than we thought? I am afraid that before the King of Bronze and Fire revived, she was already wandering in human society, observing and learning from human beings. culture and social system. And I found that the entire human society does not seem complicated to her. She has spent a long time observing certain individuals in the general human world, and this individual... I can’t explain why, but he is indeed you.”
Countless photos scrolled in the preview of the file. They were photos from the past years. They were blurry and contained traces of old memories. Just seeing the traces in the preview, Chu Zihang's mind went through those countless times. The dark lines that emerged, the blue space, the foggy basketball court, the hut with sycamore trees planted in the sun, and the deserted movie theater. The shooting angles of those photos may not be so good, like the first one. Despicable candid shots from three perspectives.
In those scenes, there are always only two figures, one tall and one short, a boy and a girl. They appear in every corner of the city. They are not close to each other, but the atmosphere and relationship between them are so soft and beautiful. , like the silhouettes of illustrations in a collection of poems praising youth, they may not be anyone, they only represent that hazy period of time, in which those delicate and wonderful emotions are reflected in space and between people. Passed from time to time, on countless nights, sung in the sound of cicadas in dreams.
I couldn't remember. Even though I was looking at a lit oil lamp through a layer of film, I still couldn't clearly see the appearance of the beautiful figure sitting in front of the oil lamp. Chu Zihang forgot to breathe, so that his fingers were trembling slightly, looking at that As the photos passed by one after another, something seemed to be springing up out of the soil in my mind, but the solid, man-made cement on the top layer suppressed the pursuit of the past.
"Your memory has been tampered with. Even so, it seems that it can't remind you of some past events." Li Qiuluo looked at Chu Zihang's reaction with a little regret, "The King of the Earth and Mountain has contacted you. Before you When she was still studying in that school called Shilan Middle School, she sneaked into your side in the name and identity of a student, and maybe she also came into contact with Lin Nian and Lu Mingfei, who are both alumni of you. "
Chu Zihang said nothing.
"The Dragon King is observing you, observing the few individuals in this era who can pose a threat to her. Although I don't know why she didn't strangle you in your infancy, this is also an opportunity."
"Lin Nian and Lu Mingfei are now deep in the Nibelungs and have lost contact. Judging from these photos, I believe that as a mixed race, Chu Zihang, there must be something special about you that attracts the Dragon King. She seems to want to She wants to get something from you, so she spares no effort to leave traces on you, but she has not succeeded until today." She said lightly, "This is a very strange phenomenon. The hybrid is no different from an insect to the Dragon King. But she does think that you have the value of observation. Judging from those photos and information, she even used the 'beauty' of shaping her body to get closer to you. In other words, she even 'seduced' you, but you didn't seem to be fooled. "
"No matter what, using intelligence as reference and evidence, for her, you are 'special'. She is observing you, and if she wants to observe, she will inevitably get close to you, just like the current situation. This closeness Distance is your advantage and the only way we can break the situation now."
Chu Zihang finally understood what Li Qiuluo meant and the real purpose of finding him.
"Your sword." Li Qiuluo looked at the imperial sword Murasame held by Chu Zihang's waist and stored in the sheath of the imitation embroidered spring sword. "After it was recast in Tianji Pavilion, its blade contained high-purity gold. The titanium alloy component is extremely poisonous to dragons. No matter what method you use, as long as you can send the blade into the heart of the King of Earth and Mountain - it must be the heart. The poison will affect her noble bloodline. Even the Dragon King will inevitably suffer damage, which will not cause death, but it can limit her state and make her reconsider whether to implement her long-planned plan."
"You want me to sneak attack Xia Mi." Chu Zihang gently lifted the scabbard in his hand.
"A sneak attack on the King of Earth and Mountain, or to call her by another possible name."
Li Qiuluo paused for a moment, then said in a calm and indifferent tone, "The snake surrounding the atrium, Jörmungandr."
That name seemed to have a different weight. When she said it, Chu Zihang felt that everything related to that girl in the past was crushed by the deep black as heavy as a mountain, and everything was collapsing and rolling into the roaring sea. , he stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the collapse of everything. He was a little at a loss, but he had to pretend to be cold and clenched the knife in his hand.
"Jormungandr, this is her real name. Everything you have seen about the girl named 'Xia Mi' is false. What is hidden under that beautiful skin can tear the earth apart." "It's a sneak attack. It's best to kill her. You should really do it with the intention of killing her, otherwise you won't be able to achieve the former goal," Li Qiuluo said, "In fact, you can understand it if you think about it. Her charm, her appearance is so beautiful, as beautiful as if she came out of a person's dream. Sometimes when something too dreamy appears in front of you, you should always consider whether it is. It’s just a bubble.”
She was silent for a moment, giving Chu Zihang time to absorb and sort out the information, and then continued, "The orthodox operators are now distributed among the crowd, and we will not interfere with your actions with the King of Earth and Mountain. , that is to say, we will not alert the snake, and we will not act until you make up your mind to harm the King of Earth and Mountain - this is probably the only thing we can do, the only reliable plan that can be implemented. I really don’t want to say it. This sentence, but now that there is a vacancy of personnel and partial necrosis, only you can contain the Dragon King. The secret party, the orthodox and all kinds of hybrids are fighting bloody battles under the Nibelung. You are the only one on the battlefield on the ground. "
She looked into Chu Zihang's eyes. She didn't know when she had put on the colored contact lenses again. Behind the false brown-black color, there were eternal golden eyes that had already broken through the shackles of blood. Since the last outbreak of the word spirit, His bloodline had already begun to recover, and those drugs could no longer suppress his bloodline. The hot and scorching power has gradually returned to his heart, giving him the qualification to draw the sword again.
But this is not enough.
Li Qiuluo took out a white porcelain blue and white medicine bottle. There was a vague mark of "Made in the Kangxi Year of the Qing Dynasty" on the base. When the cork was opened, dark pills were revealed inside. She didn't need to explain anything. She stood up and put it aside. on the shelf.
"If you make up your mind, before leaving, you can choose to accept the only help that this orthodoxy can provide now, three at a time. If you have confidence in yourself, then there is no problem in eating the whole bottle, as long as you are ready to give up everything. Prepare."
"We don't dare to bet on the hearing of the King of Earth and Mountain, so we will not leave you communication and monitoring equipment. I am only responsible for telling you the only plan that Orthodoxy can give now. As for whether to implement it, it is up to you."
"The noisy environment gives us a short time to meet now. Our people are outside to contain her. If the time is too long, it will definitely make her suspicious, so there is more I want to say. What should be said can only be left here. Let’s talk about it later, assuming there is a future.”
"Now the orthodoxy can only rely on the secret party to implement the plan, which can only be regarded as our own incompetence. I don't deny this, but no matter what, the responsibility of guarding the secrets of dragons and protecting the human social system still rests on each other's shoulders, so I sincerely hope and ask you to make the right choice."
Li Qiuluo stood at the door and turned to look at Chu Zihang between the shelves and said, "Walk out of this door, just pretend we have never seen each other. If you are determined to swing the knife behind the king of the earth and the mountain, we will enter the battlefield to evacuate the people and become your helpers as soon as possible after observing the result."
After saying everything that should be said, Li Qiuluo finally stared at Chu Zihang, nodded slightly, and left the warehouse without looking back, his footsteps gradually moving away.
Chu Zihang stood alone in the quiet warehouse, holding the new scabbard of the Yushen Sword in his hand, his eyes fell for a long time, and stopped on the blue and white porcelain medicine bottle on the shelf. Next to it, the mobile phone with the photo album opened was also left there, presenting a series of illusory and real pasts.
