Chapter 370: Taking the Backdoor
Fenrir, after leaving China, did not land again, but crossed the ocean to other continents.
The solar eclipse lasted for a full thirty days. The specific situation in that country is unclear for now, but it is certain that nuclear weapons were used by some nations.
Thirty days may seem long or short, just a month, yet people engraved this event deep into their memories.
They finally realized what awaited them without power!
The world has changed, as countless people witnessed loved ones die before their eyes, they all awakened!
When our roles reversed, the immortal players became NPCs with only one life, and the monsters became the unkillable players.
We understood the despair of those NPCs facing us, because we also felt real despair.
Perhaps this is all retribution for the sins we committed in that world!
We regret, yet do not regret.
What we regret is not recognizing reality sooner and strengthening ourselves, so we lost our loved ones when disaster struck.
We do not regret, for it was our choice, since if we could rule over them once, we could rule over them a second time!
We, too, were once a natural disaster!
After a long period of darkness, when people saw the light again, they understood this truth.
Only monsters can defeat monsters.
Natural disasters can only be dealt with by natural disasters.
Either become a natural disaster or be destroyed by one.
We have no choice!
。。。
"The sky has cleared…"
Ye Long gazed up at the sky, dumbfounded. Wang Mingxuan couldn’t help but exclaim, "Do you think Fenrir will appear again?"
Li Yuan took a deep breath.
"It will definitely come, but by then, we will be completely different, at least not so powerless."
"The event has ended, and the country has also advanced the enrollment time for Dragon Star Military Academy. It seems like change is really imminent."
"Let’s go, the three of us, no, four of us. I hope we can meet again in the academy."
Wang Mingxuan hugged Li Yuan and Ye Long, "Do you remember what I said? As long as we don’t die this time, the three of us will swear brotherhood!"
"By the way, Dujuan, are you coming with us?"
Dujuan shook her head, "You guys go ahead, I’ll stay."
"Um, the first test at Dragon Star is today at noon. Make sure you don’t mistake the time."
Ye Long paused, quickly took out his phone to check the time, "It’s already ten o’clock!"
"Oh no, let’s not swear brotherhood now, we can do it after enrollment!"
"The problem is, how do we get there now?"
"No taxis, no buses, how do we walk there?"
"It doesn’t seem too far…"
"40 kilometers, is that far?"
"Seriously, it only takes half an hour to drive 40 kilometers, right?"
"What should we do…"
Four people stood in silence by the broken street.
And just then, a jeep suddenly sped towards them and stopped right in front of the four of them.
"Are you guys heading to Dragon Star?"
A man wearing sunglasses stuck his head out of the car window. He looked to be around 30 years old or older.
Li Yuan quickly replied, "Yes, are you also going to Dragon Star?"
The man wearing sunglasses pulled his head back in and said, "Yes, nice to meet you. I am a former special instructor from Dragon Star, just reassigned from the frontlines."
"Get in, I’ll give you a ride."
Ye Long and the other three looked at each other. "Shall we go then?"
"Let’s go, to Dragon Star!"
。。。
China, in a remote wasteland far from the capital.
An old military base, now bustling with people. Almost all the people here are young, with very few older ones.
On a distant hill, three men stood side by side.
The man in front was wearing a military uniform and looked to be in his forties, while the other two men next to him were much younger.
They looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six.
One of the men was wearing a single eyeglass, "I thought you wouldn’t come back, Ye Qiu."
Ye Qiu looked at Fang Ze, "I wanted to remake the invisible lock, but unfortunately, I failed in collecting the materials."
Fang Ze turned around, "So how did you come back now?"
Ye Qiu was silent for a moment, "Because of some other things, sir, can I ask you for a favor."
The man in military uniform folded his hands behind his back, "Go ahead."
"There’s a man named Ye Long, I must recruit him no matter what, and I want him to join Team A. If you promise me this, I will promise to assist the military unconditionally," Ye Qiu said.
To be blunt, as a Chinese citizen, Ye Qiu should have unconditionally assisted the military.
But the man in uniform smiled and said, "Sure, I promise you, but I wonder what your relationship is with this Ye Long?"
"He is my younger brother," Ye Qiu replied.
The man in uniform frowned, "Just because of that, if that’s the case, then I can’t agree to your request."
Ye Qiu thought for a moment, "If it’s just because he’s my brother, I would never have come back, let alone plead with you."
"Ye Long has a talent that is incomparable to others, believe me, he won’t disappoint you."
Even Ye Qiu wasn’t too clear about Ye Long’s talent, that kid had a way of hiding things and keeping secrets.
Even with the people closest to him, he refused to reveal all of his secrets.
Like his past life.
In the end, Ye Long didn’t tell Ye Qiu what his gift was.
But even if Ye Long didn’t say, Ye Qiu had already guessed that his gift was probably to replicate.
Looking out at the entire Sealed Land, looking out at all of humanity, there was no gift that could compare to his.
Ye Qiu thought he was already strange enough, but whenever he thought of Ye Long, he couldn’t help but shake his head.
My brother, you are the real genius.
Poor Ye Qiu from the previous life was foolish and clueless, leading a decadent life and even being surpassed by Ye Long, at one point becoming a top figure.
Whenever people mentioned Ye Long, they would add the title of a Chinese war god.
As for Ye Qiu…
Who is that?
Is Ye Long his brother?
Ye Qiu suddenly smiled at the thought, "Perhaps he is the most suitable person to stand in my place."
The man in military uniform fell silent for a moment, "I don’t think that reason is convincing enough. Team A will receive the best treatment, be personally guided by top instructors, and have priority access to all resources."
"Even if you say he is exceptionally talented, what are the facts?"
Ye Qiu already anticipated what he was going to say, "My younger brother just likes to keep his talents hidden. He has never told anyone that he has seven or eight different talents."
"Including me."
The man in military uniform’s pupils suddenly dilated, "What did you say, seven or eight talents?!"
"Well, that is definitely something worth considering."
