Chapter 96 Commander’s Confusion(2/2)
"As for why they appear here, why they want to kill humans, and a series of other questions, I can't answer... It just so happens that the deep sea is here."
"Hmm? Is there any problem?"
Deep Sea cheered up after fighting for a day.
Wang Jixuan asked: "Is there a luminous crystal in the underground blade beast's lair?"
"There are, many," Shenhai said, "but there is no psychic energy in these crystals. They seem to be a special kind of ore. We also discovered that when the blade beast is in danger, it will consciously destroy these crystals to avoid being captured by us.
.”
Wang Jixuan asked: "Can you get some for me? I want to study it."
"Okay, let's try mining it. This thing will explode as soon as we touch it."
"Don't worry, this is follow-up research."
Wang Daozhang handed over some roasted bladed beast meat and grilled himself some skewers of vegetables.
He can't take too much care now, he must heal his soul's injuries first.
"Commander, how is the battle situation outside?"
"It's basically stable."
Dongfang Zhenghong said simply:
"After the death of the Young King Insect, most of the peripheral edge beast groups retreated. Everyone achieved great results this time. If the Commander-in-Chief hadn't ordered us not to expand our territory at will, our defense line might have been able to be pushed outward.
"In addition, all the details of the underground lair have been explored. We did not find any external access, and only found the half-blocked path leading to the mine in the expanded C area... So where did this young king insect come from? This
This is something we must figure out next.”
Taoist priest Wang praised: "This commander-in-chief is really knowledgeable."
"That's right," Uncle Tai said with a smile, "the commander-in-chief is the most powerful human being I have ever seen."
Dongfang Zhenghong cleared his throat and explained his purpose.
He said: "Wang Zheng, I know you may be busy, but I wonder if you can meet with the commander-in-chief secretly if there is a chance later?"
"I probably won't be able to go to the front line recently," Wang Jixuan answered quite cautiously.
He needs time to heal and practice.
It's hard to create such a messy environment now, and I don't want to take the initiative to break it.
Dongfang Zhenghong immediately said: "It doesn't matter, the commander-in-chief may come here secretly later, and Zhengde will blow you to the moon over there."
Uncle Tai glared and said, "Do you still need to brag? Those are just retellings of specific achievements!"
Everyone smiled.
Wang Jixuan said: "What I am most worried about now is that these things I took out may be known to Thirteen."
"This won't happen for the time being."
Dongfang Zhenghong said:
"If it were another war zone, this possibility would be very high.
"But in our D5...the Commander-in-Chief still has a complete team. This is due to the long-term operation before.
"There are almost a thousand people like me who are half students of the Commander-in-Chief, distributed throughout the entire D5 military system.
"Although the 13th Branch tried its best to infiltrate, the 13th Branch was still timid when facing the Commander-in-Chief."
Deep Sea added: "Theoretically, the battle between the Commander-in-Chief and those SS-level psykers must be divided between life and death. This psychic rebellion launched against this human being fifty years ago needs to be brought to an end.
"
Zheng Shiduo lamented: "No matter what era, human beings are fighting among themselves."
"This is actually not a fight among humans."
Dongfang Masahiro corrected:
"If you look at the entire situation, the main theme of the war has always been humans and bladed beasts, and now psykers have actually become a third-party force based on the human world, and they are trying to control the remaining forces of humanity.
"Actually, those of us who are in charge of commanding local battlefields often think about a question.
"What would psykers do if the Psychic City were made the de facto capital of humanity?
"It's always been confusing to me because I don't understand, they're trying to control every fortress, every human, and if they do that, then what else are they going to do? They've really been pushing fortress houses to have archons, like the creatures before
Minister Kong Nu.
"The fortress consul is elected through popular representative elections. Although it is only a vote in the middle and upper cities, the consul not only manages the fortress, but also represents the collective will of the fortress to participate in the joint governing council of the war zone and comprehensive war zone.
"The one in the Zhonggu Basin theater is called the Zhonggu Basin Joint Governing Conference, and the one in the D5 comprehensive theater is called the D5 Governing Congress.
"The former will determine the allocation of resources in the region, while the latter will determine whether the human front will counterattack or shrink, determine whether the war zone will enter an external expansion cycle or a contraction cycle, as well as allocate the population, build new fortresses as backup or expand the population, etc.
wait.
"Although what you often come into contact with on a daily basis are these two levels of military command centers, this is because this is a war era, and all resources are allocated to the military first.
"The Archons themselves and the Congress composed of the Archons are the current form of human government.
"What the Psychic Capital wants to build is, to put it bluntly, a psionic empire that will allow all humans to obey their orders."
Zheng Shiduo murmured in a low voice: "What else can it be for? The desire to rule all mankind."
"This desire is actually accompanied by tremendous pressure from the blade beasts," Shenhai shook his head, "Anyway, I think those SS-level psykers in the Psychic City have another agenda."
Wang Jixuan said softly: "Maybe it's for my own promotion."
Everyone looked puzzled, Dongfang Zhenghong was thoughtful.
Wan Xiaoqi asked: "Promotion? Isn't the energy level of a psyker fixed?"
"I'm not sure about this, but...can you answer a question for me? How old are SS-level psykers? Were they old when they were last seen?"
Zheng Shiduo immediately said: "They are at least ninety to one hundred years old. If you say so, it is true. There are several SS-level psychics who have appeared in recent years. They are really insignificant."
Old, there are one or two women who are like girls, everyone says that they can stay young forever by drinking the blood of blade beasts."
broken.
Taoist Wang sighed secretly in his heart.
Sure enough, as he expected, there must be high-level psychics who have initially mastered the use of qi, and are most likely embarking on the path of cultivation that they have discovered on their own...
I don't know if there are any geniuses among them.
However, Taoist Wang will definitely not dare to provoke him now. His talent for gathering gods is not yet at the middle level, so practicing honestly is the right path.
Uncle Tai wondered: "Why do you ask this suddenly? Teacher Wang..."
Wang Jixuan was about to answer.
Woo——woo——
A long and low alarm sound sounded on Dongfang Zhenghong's watch.
Dongfang Masahiro immediately clicked his watch twice.
"Commander! Air defense alert! A missile was launched from a position near Fortress No. 82, heading towards our headquarters! The expected impact point is the desert area 25 kilometers northwest of Fortress No. 76!"
Dongfang Zhenghong's face was ashen.
"Hit it down."
"yes!"
Chapter completed!
