Chapter 157 The Last Night
Ice-cold water sprayed down from his head. Xia Pingan raised his head and stood in the bathroom, letting the ice-cold water droplets fall from his body...
Xia Pingan's figure is not strong, and the muscles on his body are at least not as exaggerated as those of bodybuilders. However, the muscles on his body have clear lines, as if they were carved from marble, and are full of a strong and soft charm.
Under the cold water droplets, the tattoo of King Fudo on Xia Ping'an's back became more and more vivid.
Water droplets can not only wash away dust and sweat from the body, but also completely calm down the person's spirit and brain.
Just this afternoon, Xia Pingan and the others completed two days of study. Tomorrow morning, the 54 people who participated in the "Sky Mending Project" will enter the space rift in batches and head to that mysterious world.
According to the chief researcher of the base, the official name of the world on the other side of the space rift is Yuan Qiu.
Yuanqiu, this is a strange name with an oriental charm. No one knows why that world is called Yuanqiu. The two words Yuanqiu are recorded in the ancient books of that world. People in that world rarely use it. For people in that world, they prefer to call their place a certain continent.
Yuanqiu is so big that even now, the first four groups of people who entered Yuanqiu don’t know how big that world is. There are nine discovered continents in Yuanqiu, and the area of each continent is easily larger than the earth. The sum of all land areas.
Summoners in Yuanqiu can become gods. At the same time, that world is also filled with all kinds of creatures and monsters that are unimaginable to ordinary people. Yuanqiu does not have nuclear energy, and for some unknown reason, the entire Yuanqiu cannot use electricity.
The previous batches of elites who entered Yuanqiu included some scientists and top engineers. They once envisioned bringing Yuanqiu into the era of electrification, creating a technological empire in that world, and then using the power of technology to find and destroy the Dark World. Tower, but this plan undoubtedly failed.
When a world cannot use electrical energy, there will be no modern technology.
Coal and steam were the most commonly used energy sources in that world. Guns, gunpowder, automobiles, and trains were all available in that world. The level of technological development in that world was about the same as the first industrial revolution in this world.
Summoners who want to become gods, all kinds of monsters, as well as guns, steam engines, ships and trains, the world feels a bit magical.
There are various family forces, large and small, sects that worship various gods, as well as countries with various political systems, sects, mercenary groups... That world is not ordinary complicated.
Summoners in that world not only have to face various monsters, but also the wars and various struggles between humans are extremely fierce.
For people in this world, space invasion and those monsters are the greatest enemies of all mankind, but it is different in that world. In that world, races and monsters such as demon wolves, demon rats, demon fire spiders, etc., have a great impact on the people of that world. As far as humans are concerned, although the two sides are also in a state of hostility, that hostility is not as urgent as the life and death of this world.
The wars and conflicts among humans in that world were more intense, between different sects and sects, between countries, between families, and there were also wars and struggles mixed with various factors. Never stopped.
…
This may be Xia Ping'an's last bath in this world.
While Xia Pingan was rinsing his body with ice-cold water, he was going through all the information about the world that he had learned in the past two days. The cold water drops made Xia Pingan's thinking extremely active. He put those things in his mind. Classify, summarize, and refine information to find what is most useful to you.
This information is only part of the world of Yuanqiu. It is what was collected in the previous "Tian-Mending Project". The impact of the first four rounds of the "Tian-Mending Project" on that world is like a drop of water dropped into the ocean. , did not cause any trouble, and those who arrived in that world and did not come back were either sacrificed or missing or out of contact.
Xia Pingan is very interested in the Saint Masters of that world. According to the chief researcher of the base, the Saint Masters of that world are among the Summoners because they can cultivate Summoners and allow the Summoners to smoothly integrate certain World Beads. The highest status existence.
I just don’t know what the Holy Master’s World Pearl looks like?
If he could become a Saint Master, it would be of great help in completing the "Tian Mending Project".
After taking a shower here, just drying my hair and changing into a set of clothes, the doorbell rang.
Xia Pingan opened the door and saw Yan Duo standing outside the door in high spirits, "How are you, are you ready?" Yan Duo raised his eyebrows at Xia Pingan.
"Let's go!"
Tonight is everyone's last night in this world, and everyone will leave early tomorrow morning, so the 54 summoners from the Great Yan Kingdom have a final gathering tonight to prepare for a "last supper". When they get there, , everyone may not even have the chance to get together...
In the past two days, some of the details of the mission of "Project Mending the Sky" have been clarified. This mission is a completely free mission. There is no team, captain or other positions. As soon as you get there, everyone will People are free people. Except for the fact that the ultimate task of destroying the Tower of Darkness remains unchanged, everyone can do whatever they want and take any action they want to take.
Of course, if you want to join forces with some people, you can do that.
Xia Pingan and Yan Duo arrived at the small restaurant on the base. Most of the 54 people were already here.
There was a soothing atmosphere in the restaurant, and some drinks and cold meals were placed on several tables in the restaurant. Except for Xia Ping'an and the others who were on the mission this time, no one else in the base appeared here. In the restaurant The atmosphere is relatively free, but there is also some uneasiness and agitation.
People gathered together in twos and threes and chatted.
"Haha, third brother, you're here too..." Seeing that Wu Zhanfeng had arrived, Yan Duo raised his voice, winked at Xia Pingan, and strode towards Wu Zhanfeng.
Originally, Wu Zhanfeng's back was facing this way and he was taking food from the dining table. When he heard Yan Duo's voice, Xia Ping'an saw Wu Zhanfeng's shoulders suddenly stiffen.
Xia Pingan smiled and ignored Yan Duo and Wu Zhanfeng, but walked towards the group of people next to him.
Among that group of people, something was being discussed.
"I think when we get there, it's best to organize it and set up a treasure hunting group. If we can find a cave or a secret treasure left by a high-level summoner or a vein of mysterious mind crystals, we will definitely have a powerful one. A huge improvement, which will help us quickly integrate into that world and obtain the resources we need!”
The summoner who said this was called Li Yang, a fat man with a round face and small eyes, who was very active.
"Li Yang, don't be ridiculous. There are 54 of us. We are not even in the Yiyang realm. When we get there, we will grow up first and survive. It is best not to attract attention. If we really want to get together to hunt for treasures, we are asking for death. Road, it’s best to wait until we adapt to the environment over there before planning the next move. Now for us, when we get there, even if we find good things, whether we can hold on to them will be a problem, and it may also cause trouble. Come and cause death!"
As soon as one person in that group finished speaking, someone immediately expressed different opinions.
"It is precisely because we are weak that we need more unity when we get there!" Li Yang said unconvinced.
"You only see the power of unity, but not the risks of unity. The 54 of us are 54 fires. When we are spread out, we seem to be weaker, but more flexible and have more opportunities. It's ugly to say If we point it out, even if some of us sacrifice a few, the others are still alive and can continue to look for opportunities to become stronger and continue to search for the Tower of Darkness. Once something happens to us together, the loss will be huge and difficult to make up for. No matter what others do, when I get there, I will definitely act alone!"
"I think finding a family or sect to join and using the power of those families and sects to strengthen ourselves and find the Tower of Darkness is the best choice!" someone else said.
"If you join a family or a sect, you might become cannon fodder..."
After listening to everyone chatting for a while, Xia Pingan took a glass of the base's specialty snow plum wine, went to a corner of the restaurant alone, and drank quietly.
I wonder how Xia Ning and Lao Tu are doing now. The situation in Yizhou should be getting better.
Before leaving, Xia Pingan thought of Xia Ning and Lao Tu again.
Xia Pingan shook his head and smiled self-deprecatingly. He prided himself on doing things neatly and never being sloppy, but at this time, he still felt a little nostalgic in his heart and his mood was a bit complicated.
Fortunately, the snow plum wine with an alcohol content of only over ten degrees and a refreshing taste and rich aroma can relax people's spirits.
After drinking half of the wine, the fragrant wind surged around her. Jiang Duoer, who was radiant in a purple dress, came to Xia Pingan's side with a glass of wine.
"How's it going? Do you have any plans when you get there?" Jiang Duo'er asked while holding the wine glass and looking at Xia Pingan.
"The situation over there is very complicated. It's useless to say anything now. When it passes, we can adapt to the situation according to the situation!"
"What, do you not want to say it, or are you afraid that I will miss you?" Jiang Duoer's eyes flashed, and she glanced at Xia Pingan with a charming look.
The atmosphere tonight was a bit special. In just a moment, Xia Pingan saw Yan Duo holding Wu Zhanfeng's shoulders, and the two of them were already walking towards the other two beautiful female summoners not far away. The two female summoners, one named Lang Xia and the other Su Qingqing, are very beautiful.
Ming Ruolan still didn't show up tonight, but everyone seemed to be used to it.
Xia Pingan withdrew his eyes, looked at Jiang Duoer, and smiled slightly, "You have already thought about what you are going to do there, so why ask me? My choice is actually similar to yours. I just depend on the opportunity. When I get there, I will do it." make decisions……"
"I understand. The power of an individual is indeed too small. I hope we have a chance to cooperate!" Jiang Duoer nodded, smiled slightly, clinked glasses with Xia Pingan, took a sip of wine, and then walked away.
When communicating with smart people, you really don’t need to say too much.
Xia Pingan had just finished a glass of wine, and was about to get some cold snacks, but found that the entire restaurant suddenly became quiet. He turned his head and saw Ming Ruolan, wearing a snow-white dress, at the door of the restaurant, like a bright star. The bright moon shone brightly all over her body as she walked into the restaurant.
No one expected that Ming Ruolan would come tonight, so there was a brief silence in the restaurant.
Ming Ruolan glanced around the restaurant, walked directly towards Xia Pingan, and said something to Xia Pingan that no one expected.
"When I get there, I need a male companion, preferably my husband. Can you be this person?"
There was no sound in the entire restaurant for an instant. In this case, a certain summoner shook his hand out of surprise, and the sound of the wine glass falling to the ground and breaking was particularly clear.
To be honest, this is the first time Xia Pingan has seen Ming Ruolan talking to others.
And it’s hard to resist once you open your mouth.
Such a stunning woman, as soon as she opens her mouth, she comes looking for her husband, and she is looking for herself.
Xia Pingan wanted to confirm whether Ming Ruolan was joking with him, but when he looked at those beautiful eyes, what he saw was calmness and seriousness, and there was no hint of joking in those eyes.
