The Old Gods Are Whispering

  Chapter 42 Who is the smartest

   The first floor of the Deep Space Technology Building is the reception hall.

  Gu Jianlin sat on the sofa, holding a tablet computer in his hand, reading knowledge about the team's actions.

   "Ice Coke you want."

  Chen Qing walked over, bent down and put a can of ice coke in front of him, and said with a blank expression: "Sometimes I really have the illusion, as if I have another young master."

"thanks."

  Gu Jianlin rarely asked curiously: "Sister Chen Qing, why do you call him Young Master?"

  It's quite strange to put this title in today's society.

  Chen Qing sat next to him, and said coldly: "Because I was an orphan when I was young, he picked me up. At that time, the Lu family didn't agree, so he raised me outside and raised me with pocket money."

  Gu Jianlin was taken aback for a moment: "Raised with pocket money? As expected of a sublimated family, really rich."

   In contrast, he is also the Shenghua family, and now he is the only one in their family.

"Is such that."

  Chen Qing brushed her hair, and checked her makeup on the phone screen.

   "Are you childhood sweethearts... or, lovers?"

   Gu Jianlin asked.

  Chen Qing shook his head and said, "We don't have that kind of relationship. He has someone he likes, but it's not there anymore."

  Gu Jianlin didn't expect to hear such a thing again, so he fell silent.

  In the hall, there were many investigators and researchers coming and going, as well as many business staff.

   "Hey, look at that person, is it the one who killed the clown?"

   "Level 0 solo kills the deformed fallen man of level 2? I heard that the two mythical weapons are also on his body."

   "Don't say it, he's really handsome. Have you seen that photo? The one of him sitting in the ruins. I heard that he is a rare self-awakened person. Do you think I should ask for a WeChat?"

   "That's the son of the fallen, if you go, I won't stop you."

   "What happened to the son of the fallen? It's over for being handsome!"

  Gu Jianlin listened to those people's whispers, but didn't say anything.

  Since he came to the Deep Space Mansion and someone recognized him, it's probably the same conversation.

  He found that in the Ethereal Association, the fallen is a very sensitive word.

  Many people will care.

  Even if he is not a fallen person himself, he will still be talked about because of his father.

"In the eyes of the Tribunal, the Fallen fell because they couldn't stand the temptation of power. Some of them were betrayed by the Fallen, or their family members were killed by the Fallen. Others think that the Fallen Your genes are buried in your blood."

  Chen Qing said euphemistically: "Especially you, people like Deacon Nie will think that your father left you the benefits of killing your companions, and your achievements are based on the lives of the victims."

  Gu Jianlin asked: "So, isn't everyone likely to be polluted?"

  Chen Qing said lightly: "They have faith. In their view, once the spirit is polluted, they will commit suicide before losing control."

"Over the years, the Tribunal's attitude towards the fallen has become more and more extreme. Some people think that the fallen are too easy to lose control. Even people who can maintain their rationality at the initial stage of the infection will suddenly fall into severe madness at a certain period of time and show serious symptoms. aggressiveness."

She paused: "So just kill them all. Those who are polluted either commit suicide or are killed. Even taking medicine to temporarily stop it will not help. In the eyes of the association, it is just a means to escape sanctions .”

   Gu Jianlin thought so.

   "Of course, that's what it means, if you get polluted, you commit suicide..."

  Chen Qing said mockingly: "As for whether it can be done or not, that's another matter. But these years, the Judgment Chamber is the dominant family, and they have the final say on many things in the association, and there is nothing they can do about it."

  At this moment, the door of the elevator opened, and Lu Zi walked out with a dark face.

  I saw him sitting down on the sofa, took a bottle of mineral water and poured it into his mouth, gurgling.

  The bald parrot stood on his shoulder: "It's so annoying! It's so annoying!"

   Gu Jian Linhu questioned: "What happened?"

  After drinking the water, Lu Zicheng said angrily, "If there are no accidents, you may be the only member of our team."

  Chen Qing frowned: "Too late?"

  Lu Zicheng hummed: "Because this operation is very dangerous, there are not many investigators involved in it. Their teams are all pre-determined, and there are no redundant individuals."

  Chen Qing frowned: "This is a bit troublesome."

"right."

  Lu Zicheng hesitated for a while: "So our team will not be able to recruit others for a while, and this time there is also a loyal dog faction of the Inquisition Chamber in the operation team, which may target Xiao Gu."

  Gu Jianlin drank the Coke silently without saying anything.

   This is good news.

  Because he doesn't need teammates at all.

   "I wanted you to be promoted to the first rank as soon as possible."

  Lu Zicheng sighed: "Without pharmacists and priests, it will be very troublesome, and the exchange of merits will not work."

  Gu Jianlin frowned: "What do you mean?"

  Lu Zicheng said quietly: "Because they were robbed."

  Gu Jianlin took out his phone, logged into the Deep Space Network, and clicked on the resource exchange library.

   Then he had fun.

   "CMJ No. 113 spiritual secret medicine, out of stock."

   "A03 spiritual secret medicine, out of stock."

   "The blood of graphite, out of stock."

   "Crimson wine, out of stock."

  Basically all the spiritual secret medicines are out of stock, because these resources are too sought-after, and there is no market for the price.

   This is why it is important to have a pharmacist in the team.

  Gu Jianlin's meritorious service can only be exchanged for some alchemy weapons at present.

   or some special services.

  For example, one-on-one psychological counseling by priests.

   Another example, one thousand meritorious service for a month, for the protection of family members.

"In the Ether Association, these low-level resources are very sought-after. The real useful benefits are to wait until the Qilin Asgard can open up wasteland. With the help of the association's power as a protective umbrella, you can search for ancient secrets in the Asgard. If you find it, it will be yours." .”

  Lu Zicheng explained: "There are many high-level people in the association who rely on these secrets to gain momentum. This is also the biggest attraction of the association to sublimators."

   "As for those services are IQ tax, I have already greeted my family."

  He thought for a while: "In the future, the Lu family will be responsible for the safety of your family, and my sister will also help to look after it."

"thanks."

   Gu Jianlin said.

Lu Zicheng reminded: "I have signed up to participate in this suppression mission in the name of the team, but because of the nature of the mission, we captains will not act with you. Of course, you have the two mythical weapons of the clown, Self-preservation should be no problem."

   "But if you want to compete with other teams...it's up to you."

  He paused: "If you can advance to the super-dimensional level as soon as possible, that is, above the fourth level, my sister's resources and contacts will be useful, you have to hurry up."

   Gu Jianlin thought that would be great.

  He has too many secrets.

  Whether it is two mythical weapons or ancient deification.

   It is not suitable to have teammates watching.

   Moreover, he is now at the first level, and there is also a pharmacist in the Qilin Immortal Palace.

   There is no need to worry about resources for promotion.

  As for the priest's treatment, it is even more tasteless to him.

  First of all, the **** priest path can use the fire of the **** sacrifice to absorb vitality to restore itself.

   In terms of resources, there is a fourth-level pharmacist in the ancient tomb.

  Suddenly, Gu Jianlin's mobile phone sounded a notification from the Deep Space Network.

   "Hello, respected D-level investigator Gu Jianlin, your team has participated in this large-scale hunting mission. Please bring your equipment and supplies and gather at the front lobby of the Deep Space Technology Building immediately."

   Taixu's voice.

   "It's almost time to go, there are seven teams in total, gather in the front hall."

  Lu Zicheng said indifferently: "This time, they are basically elites."

  Gu Jianlin nodded slightly, he suddenly thought that after he was promoted to Commander-in-Chief, he hadn't tested his ability yet.

   It is said that the range of life perception can be extended to twenty-five meters for a first-order **** division.

  This distance is just right, and he just wanted to test it out.

  At that moment, he emptied his mind, his mind was blank, and he opened up his seventh sense.

   For a moment, the noisy and chaotic melody of life sounded in my ears, as if I was in a sea of ​​noise!

  Gu Jianlin shook his hand, almost spilling Coke all over his body.

  Because at this moment, he seemed to hear the melody of life in the entire building!

  ·

  ·

  In the spacious elevator, the atmosphere is extremely depressing.

  Lin Wanqiu put her hands in the pockets of her white coat, her delicate and charming face showed no expression.

  The other captains were also extremely serious.

A middle-aged man glanced down at his watch, and said in a cold voice: "This operation, cheer me up, if there is another problem like last time, you can all get out of here, understand? "

  Cheng Youyu stood in the corner, shrunk his head and said, "Second Uncle...ah no, Captain. Just don't worry, it was force majeure last time. Who knew that clowns still have things like Necromancer Gu? This time it's absolutely safe."

   "Shut up quickly."

   Someone muttered: "Last time you said you were safe, but the car overturned."

   "That's right, Brother Cheng, please accept your supernatural powers and don't give me any more milk."

   Someone said again: "If it weren't for the good luck last time, we would all be dead."

  Cheng Youyu said with a dark face: "Is that my grandma's? Isn't that because the clown is too difficult!"

  In the corner, Nie Xiangsi stood timidly at the end, holding a tablet computer in his hand.

  There is a photo on the screen, in the collapsed ruins, there is a chair intact.

  The blood-stained teenager sat on a chair, with a dead body lying beneath his feet.

   "Brother Yu Yu."

  Nie Xiangsi said softly: "He is the one who saved us, right?"

  Cheng Youyu turned around, smiled apologetically, "That's right, Sister Xiangsi, that's him. Gu Jianlin, we Fengcheng No. 2 Middle School, I copied his papers in the exams, and we have a good relationship."

  Nie Xiangsi was silent for a moment, then said: "So he is also a sublimator."

   "I didn't know it was him before."

  Cheng Youyu asked: "What's wrong?"

  Nie Xiangsi minimized the picture, and then clicked on the task list for this time.

   "He seems to be involved in this operation."

  She hesitated: "And he is the only one in his team."

  Cheng Youyu was taken aback, and saw that lonely, familiar name on the list.

   "Fuck, it seems like this ruthless guy is really there!"

  ·

  ·

   At the same time, in the dark laboratory, there was the sound of foam churning.

  In the burning copper cauldron, the blood-colored liquid was churning, surging and surging like magma.

  A stooped pharmacist watched this scene with wild eyes.

   "Mentor."

  A young man stood beside him and swallowed: "With this, can we survive?"

   "Although there is only one drop, it can't transform us into **** servants, but it is enough to delay our life."

  The pharmacist licked his lips: "This is a gift from the gods."

The young man was silent for a moment, and then asked again: "Teacher, there is a problem here. If we really drink the blood of the ancient gods and transform into servants of the gods? Don't we become the servants of the Supreme? We are too weak , if He had no way to get out of trouble, he would never have chosen us. We have gained life, but lost our freedom.”

  He paused: "Even He wanted to kill us, all in one thought."

   "My student, why are you so stupid?"

The pharmacist smiled: "Do you think that we have so many secret medicines in stock, and there are not a few super-dimensional spiritual secret medicines, why should we risk offending him and only give him a dozen low-level secret medicines?" What about the medicine?"

  Scholar was taken aback.

"Providing too much spirituality at one time, I can't be sure when he will be able to get out of trouble. Instead, we can give him a little bit of spirituality secret medicine, and we can always take the initiative. Although he is the supreme, but he is surrounded by a more powerful Venerable Candle Dragon is imprisoned, in order to stabilize us, He has no choice but to use the blood of the ancient gods to trade with us again and again, understand?"

The pharmacist explained: "Quantity is the key! You are my nephew, as long as we can survive, it is enough. As for Siren Butcher and Yue Ji, it doesn't matter. Venerable Qilin is trapped in the fairy palace, even if we become Even if he becomes a God Servant, he will not be able to cross the two worlds and control us who have become God Servants. As long as we become God Servants and never go back, we are safe."

Shuweng asked again: "It's just that after the dimensional gate of the Qilin Asgard is stabilized, don't we want all the ancient treasures and opportunities? We will never go back to Asgard, so we will give up in Asgard. vast resources."

  The pharmacist smiled and said, "I'm a pharmacist, as long as I can make a precious enough secret medicine, why don't we have someone to enter the Immortal Palace for us?"

  Shu Weng was startled: "I see!"

   "This is the teacher's wisdom, you still have a long way to go."

  The pharmacist smiled and said, "What will happen when the seal of the Qilin Asgard completely disappears and the members of the Aether Association enter?"

  Scholar suddenly realized: "Teacher, you are so smart! As long as He cannot come to reality, we are safe!"
