Embers Ad Infinitum

In Kitis's mind, Cornimis is a place that all the great knights of the "White Knights" dare not go. As long as they are human beings, they will definitely be infected with "innocent disease" when they get there.

When she first owned the Bodhi statue, she never thought about getting a clone and going into Cornynmis to collect some supplies, fearing that the "unintentional disease" would infect the main body.

Now, the team in front of them has not only been to Konimis, but also returned to Gerstburg alive.

They also claimed to have solved the problem in Cornimis, making the "unintentional disease" spreading there completely disappear and no longer become a taboo!

While Jitis was in disbelief, Shang Jianyao replied in an unusually sincere and humble manner:

"We just made a small contribution."

This is the truth... I don’t know who Zhi Sui solved the problem of Koningmis. It is most likely the big boss "Si Ming". We are only responsible for "delivering" relevant items... Jiang Baimian was thinking in his heart Muttered something.

She didn't care too much about Shang Jianyao telling Gitis about Cornynmis' return to normal, and she wasn't worried that it would reveal the fact that the "Old Tune Team" had completed all its tasks.

Because Gitis will definitely not publicize this matter and let others seize the opportunity, and the teams she organized two or three times before are definitely trustworthy, and those people will not talk about the opportunity to make a fortune, so as not to increase competition. Pressure, unable to select the best and most valuable materials.

Although most of the ruins hunters in Gerstberg like to brag about it, they may not be able to keep the secret if they drink some smuggled spirits in private after two or three explorations. Anyway, Cornimis is so big, and a Within a year and a half, no amount of relic hunters would be able to clear it out, but that would be at least a month later, and the "old tune team" should have accomplished its intended goal.

In this case, it is appropriate to make friends cheaply.

A negligible contribution... Jitis stared at Shang Jianyao for a few seconds and gave up the intention of questioning.

There are too many mysteries about this group of people. The more you know about them, the more dangerous they become.

She controlled her emotions of shock and surprise and returned her mind to practical issues:

"Are there still many 'careless ones' in Cornimis?"

If there were more of them, or they were stronger, then she would have to carefully consider the composition of the team.

"They should all be dead." Shang Jianyao answered truthfully, "Anyway, we didn't meet again this time."

Jiang Baimian nodded:

"The food in Cornimis has been completely consumed. Even if there are still 'careless people', when summer is coming, they will search for food in the surrounding areas instead of staying in Cornimis."

"But you have to be very careful. The remaining 'unintentional ones' in Cornimis must be very strong." Shang Jianyao warned in a supplementary way.

After bidding farewell to Kittis, the "Old Tune Team" went upstairs and entered the reserved suite.

Jiang Baimian threw the tactical backpack aside, sat on the single sofa, and said with a smile:

"In the next two or three days, we can relax a little. The main task is to replenish power and reserve supplies."

"You can't really relax on the surface." Shang Jianyao replied.

Then he explained:

"I said it for Xiao Hong."

"I don't think so!" Long Yuehong retorted immediately.

Although it is indeed impossible for him to relax as wholeheartedly as he does inside the company, he is still not so nervous when he is in a safe zone. After all, his wife is lying next to him and there are trustworthy companions outside who are on duty at night.

Jiang Baimian stopped Shang Jianyao's subsequent words, exhaled and said:

"It's getting late, I have to think about what to eat."

Shang Jianyao's eyes lit up and his attention was instantly diverted.

…………

In the dark night, after Shang Jianyao lay on the bed, he entered the "soul corridor" again and squatted in front of room "205", which represented the "dawn" of February.

Reckless, he broke away and shouted urgently:

"Can we go in this time?"

Honest business philosophy is self-contained:

“That’s right, we don’t lie to our own people. The two goals we set before have now been achieved.

"Don't you mean that after you find the specific location of the Eighth Research Institute and explore Cornimis, you can go in and die without regrets no matter what happens?"

"Yes, yes." Another Shang Jianyao agreed.

He has always been on the side of reason.

The vicious Shang Jianyao said "ha":

"Don't hold us back if you want!"

"It's like I want to drag you with me. If I couldn't get rid of you, a coward, I would have gone it alone!" The reckless Shang Jianyao responded unceremoniously.

There is no need to be polite to yourself.

Shang Jianyao, who is looking for novelty and novelty, also interjected:

"I wonder what it will be like to explore Zhi Sui's room and what I will gain..."

There was strong yearning in his voice.

Seeing that people were about to lose their temper and it was difficult to lead the team, the calm and rational Shang Jianyao walked towards "205" step by step.

Just when several Shang Jianyao were about to cheer, this Shang Jianyao suddenly turned around and blocked the door of "205".

He looked around and said:

"We still haven't figured out why Zhi Sui keeps humans in captivity and what kind of dangers the company hides. Do you hope to kill your useful body in advance and let everyone in the company slip into the bottomless abyss?"

"I don't want to die with such worries." Shang Jianyao, whose eyes were still a little red and swollen, agreed.

"Yes, yes." The agreeable Shang Jianyao is like the grass on the wall, which will fall wherever the wind blows.

"Namo Anuttarasamyaksambodhi." Zen Master Pudu, who was half-machine and half-human, raised his palms and said earnestly, "To save yourself, save others first, and to save others, save yourself."

No one paid attention to the Buddhist motto he finally came up with. Shang Jianyao, the messenger of justice who hates evil and hates evil, said:

"If we can't even save everyone in the company, how can we talk about saving all mankind?"

Shang Jianyao, who has the most cheerful personality, glanced at his colleagues with a smile:

“If there’s a dispute, let’s vote.”

After voting, the Shang Jian Yao Democratic Consultative Council passed a resolution of 6 to 4 to first solve the mystery of the captive human beings and then explore the "205" room.

"Hey." Shang Jianyao, who was looking for novelty and novelty, let out a long sigh and said, "Why haven't we explored the soul room of the awakened ones in Suimo City?"

In that way, it might be easier to pinpoint the specific location of Sui Sui City, and even directly obtain the answer to why Zhi Sui kept humans in captivity.

"Not so lucky." The honest Shang Jianyao replied.

"Maybe someone doesn't want us to meet." The vicious Shang Jianyao sneered.

While talking, they gathered together, merged into one, and walked deeper into the "Soul Corridor" to see if they could find the door to the "New World" or something related to the End of the Year City in other rooms.

After walking for a while, Shang Jianyao's eyes straightened again.

Not far in front of him, the number "503" was written on a vermilion door.

This is the room that belongs to Jiang Xiaoyue.

…………

"You didn't go in?" The next morning, Jiang Baimian, who heard Shang Jianyao's report, asked with both relief and amusement.

Shang Jianyao said seriously:

"Room '503' is not necessarily less dangerous than '205'."

Dang dang, this time it was Gennava who applauded Shang Jianyao.

Shang Jianyao put on a regretful expression:

"It's a pity that Lao Ge can't enter the 'Corridor of the Soul', otherwise he could be allowed to explore '503'."

The current danger shown in "503" room is that explorers suffer from "unintentional disease", while robots do not have "unintentional disease".

"Well, we'll discuss this issue tonight, and now go out to purchase supplies." Jiang Baimian nodded.

They had some coins left from before.

Going downstairs, Long Yuehong saw a police officer leaving the front desk and walking out of the hotel.

Kitty is still at work during the day today.

"What is he asking?" Shang Jianyao approached as an acquaintance.

Gitis looked around and said in a lowered voice:

"Iman is the deputy leader of the local knights. His death is taken seriously by the great knights and they have been investigating the real cause."

"Do they doubt you?" Jiang Baimian asked before Shang Jianyao could.

Gittes shook her head:

"Fortunately, I insist on not using my clone to seek illegitimate benefits. Iman and I have no apparent connection, so they can't suspect me at all.

"Those sheriffs just know that I am a pretty good intelligence dealer and want to see if I have any clues here."

Jiang Baimian nodded slowly.

Then, she lowered her voice and said:

“In the future, don’t talk about Yiman and the clones in any place or on any occasion, even if there is no one around, even if they are communicating with us.

"I think no one knows better than you what 'walls have ears' means."

Jitis is not the only one who has the ability of "telepathy".

Jitis' face changed slightly and she nodded solemnly.

Just when Shang Jianyao was about to say goodbye to his friend and go to different places in Gerstburg to purchase supplies, Bai Chen suddenly asked:

"Have you ever heard of Suimo City?

"In the past three years of working as an intelligence businessman, have you ever heard of Sumo City?"
