Night of apocalypse

"Hey, isn't that right? I know you're not that kind of person, so I can leave now."

Shen Qiu stretched out his hand and hooked Lei Jing's neck, and said with a smile.

Lei Jing took a deep breath and made a difficult decision.

"You can go. If Master Long Er takes the blame, I will naturally bear the responsibility."

"terrific!"

"However, be careful. This time things are different from before. You should have noticed. Someone is obviously messing with you. Maybe there is a trap waiting for you."

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Shen Qiu smiled and replied.

"Go ahead and be careful along the way."

After Lei Jing said goodbye to Shen Qiu, he left with his subordinates.

Shen Qiu immediately returned to the van, drove Chen Ye to the passenger seat, and then stepped on the accelerator to the floor.

Uh-huh!

The whole van sped out.

"Boss, why are you driving so fast?"

Chen Ye asked in confusion.

"Of course we have to leave quickly! Who knows if anyone will stop us? Lei Jing has a straightforward temper and is easy to get rid of. Others may not be easy to get rid of."

After Shen Qiu finished speaking, he ignored Chen Ye and raced at full speed.

A few hours later.

The van was driving on a bumpy road, heading towards the singularity.

"Haha~"

At this time, Chen Ye, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the bracelet and smiled from ear to ear.

Shen Qiu, who was driving, turned to look at him and asked.

"What are you doing? You are smiling so happily."

"I was watching the latest trending events and it really made me laugh to death. By the way, Boss You is no longer number one on the trending list, he has been pushed down."

Chen Ye said with a smile.

When Shen Qiu heard Chen Ye's words, he was also surprised. He was not the most searched.

"What happened?"

"The City Lord's Mansion in the City of Stars was blocked by people, and now those people won't block us anymore, haha!"

"Who is so brave? Even dare to block the city lord's palace?"

"Hey, boss, you definitely can't guess it."

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up!"

"Okay, the people blocking the city lord's palace are the Blue Alliance Shiben and the group of capitalists, and of course there are many rich people."

Chen Ye then explained to Shen Qiu.

"for what?"

"It's like this. Oroko of the Blue League originally promised to clear the accounts of all capital groups. You also know that when building the City of Stars, a lot of things were purchased and a lot of accounts were taken on credit. But now the situation has changed, Oroko The Chairman of the Council of Science and Technology approved a plan called Seed of Hope, and most of the allocated funds were used to rescue the people of the Blue League, but those people were not happy."

"Wait, the Blue League is rescuing the people? Why does it sound weird and not like Speaker Oroko's style?"

"It's not like Speaker Oroko's style, but he has no choice. This is not the case. The cities in the Blue Alliance have been frequently hit by strange waves recently. The elite troops are either in another world or have been transferred to the City of Stars. As a result, everything in the house has blossomed. , there is really no other way and must be rescued.”

"If that's all, there's no need for those people to fall out with Speaker Oroko, right? After all, isn't the Blue League very rich?"

"Boss, you don't understand. The Blue League is very rich, but the level of relief funds allocated by the Blue League is different from that allocated by the Red League. All they allocated are Blue League coins! We may have one here If a person can receive a subsidy of one thousand red alliance coins, it is astronomical. Their subsidy standard is at least a few thousand blue alliance coins! Calculate how much money they need to pay for such a large population? And this kind of livelihood assistance , it’s basically a bottomless pit. Once this money is released, the originally very wealthy Blue League may go downhill.”

Chen Ye explained immediately.

"Oh I got it!"

"Boss, there is something even more incredible."

"whats the matter?"

"The slogans of opposition by those capitalists turned out to be public opinion. A large number of the incited protesters were rich people. How shameless. And the beneficiaries of the Seed of Hope plan are the bottom members of the Blue League. Now both groups in the forum are It’s almost a fight.”

"Let me see."

When Shen Qiu heard this, he clicked on his bracelet to open the forum while driving.

I immediately saw the popular posts pinned to the top.

"Oroko - the evil dictator and the enemy of democracy!"

Shen Qiu clicked in very curiously and saw a video named Zhengyi uploaded in the post. He opened the video and watched it.

The excited people blocked the city lord's palace in the City of Stars, waving the banners of freedom and justice, and kept shouting.

"Protest! Abolish the Seeds of Hope plan! Public funds from the Blue Alliance should be used to safeguard the safety of everyone, rather than embezzlement in the name of charity."

“Oroko steps down.”

A fighter from the Xinghui Department stood in front of the protesters and tried his best to stop them. Anyone who dared to throw things excessively would be captured and arrested on the spot.

Shen Qiu immediately read the comments below and was also very noisy.

People from the Blue League left crazy messages, and both sides kept putting forward their own opinions.

"The funds of the Blue League come from everyone's contribution. The funds should be used for weapons so that mankind can have a future, rather than just issuing a single sentence and wasting the effort."

"A group of people who are arrogant and have an overwhelming sense of superiority are talking nonsense about whether they should lend a helping hand to their dying companions? How hypocritical!"

"If the noise is so loud and the impact is so bad, won't the Blue League delete the post?"

Shen Qiu said with great emotion.

Chen Ye chuckled and said to Shen Qiu.

"Boss, you don't understand. The situation of the Blue League is different from ours. What they emphasize is freedom of speech. When the Red League and the Blue League jointly created the City of Stars, there was an agreement in this regard. By the way. , Boss, your post was posted by someone from the Blue League, so the Red League has been unable to delete it."

"Oh I got it."

Shen Qiu understood immediately after hearing what Chen Ye said.

As a result, when he scrolled down the post to read the comments, a prompt suddenly popped up.

"Tip: The post you are viewing no longer exists, and the page will be refreshed soon."

Before Shen Qiu could react, the page was refreshed and his post became the first one again.

"Damn, why did you delete it?"

Shen Qiu said in surprise.

"No, let me take a look. Damn it, it was really deleted."

Chen Ye replied in confusion, isn't this slap in the face too fast?

"Oh, what a double standard. None of my posts have been deleted."

Shen Qiu couldn't bear it anymore and cursed angrily.

"It's just, it's too much."

Angie also cheered.

Bei Kailun sneered when he heard this.

"Okay, isn't this a normal thing? Those hypocritical people always have nothing to do with themselves, they just stand up and watch the fun, hoping that you will be unlucky. If it really involves you, it must be another person. To put it bluntly! The Red Alliance and the Blue Alliance are living together now, how much more concerted efforts do you expect?"

"cut!"

Shen Qiu replied angrily.

As a result, another post was posted with the title Oroko Hero or Demon!

Shen Qiu was slightly startled, then clicked on the post and saw what was written inside the post.

"Hey, it's so boring to delete a post. I'll open a new one for you. Let's chat!"

Shen Qiu looked at the post ID. Although the poster was anonymous, it was obvious that he belonged to the Red Alliance. Suddenly, the post became the main battlefield, with people from both sides pouring in and yelling.

"Hey, things are really changing."

Shen Qiu said with great emotion.

"Boss, you'd better drive hard, it won't be good if you take us into a ditch."

"Go away, my skills are beyond your comparison."

Shen Qiu replied angrily, but he still turned his attention back. After all, if he drove forward, he might encounter a monster at any time.

"Yes Yes"

Chen Ye responded with a smile.

——

In the backyard of Dragon Mansion in the City of Sinking Stars.

On the edge of the lake shrouded in hazy mist, stands an exquisite, classic mahogany loft.

Beside the railing on the third floor of the attic, a lady wearing a snow-white cloak, with skin as fair as fat, blond hair hanging down to her waist, eyes as deep as a pool, elegant and calm manner, stood there, looking at the hazy lake in front of her.

Deng Deng~

There was a steady sound of footsteps.

The lady slowly turned around and looked around, and saw Bai Mucheng wearing a green one-piece dress, with a star orchid pinned to her long, light blue hair that looked like a waterfall.

She walked up to the lady, took off her delicate faceless mask, and greeted the lady respectfully.

"Lord Long Qing, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

"I just arrived not long ago, Mucheng doesn't need to be so familiar, just call me Long Qing."

Long Qing said with a gentle smile.

"I don't dare. I don't know why you asked me to come, Master Long Qing?"

Bai Mucheng always maintained a respectful attitude and replied calmly.

Others don't know Long Qing, but she knows better than anyone else that as the wife of the Chairman of the Long Yan Council and the head matron of the Long family, although she does not openly participate in the affairs of the Red League, she influences the Red League all the time.

There are even rumors that Long Yan's success as chairman of the Council had a lot to do with Long Qing's strong support.

"I am a woman and have nothing to do. It's just that I haven't seen you as a guest at home for a long time. I miss you very much. I just want to say some thoughtful words to you."

"I'm sorry, Lord Long Qing, I am currently serving as the Vice Chairman of the Red Alliance, and I am busy with official business and cannot visit you often."

"I know that after you became the vice president, you worked hard and were very busy. I often hear Long Yan mention you, and he is full of praise for you."

"Thank you, Lord Council Leader, for your love."

Bai Mucheng replied neither humble nor overbearing.

Long Qing said to Bai Mucheng with a smile.

"You don't have to be so modest. Your excellence is obvious to all. I like it very much."

"Thank you, Lord Long Qing, for your compliment."

A strange glint flashed in Bai Mucheng's eyes, and she replied calmly.

Long Qing's continuous compliments made her feel something was wrong.

This is what Long Qing said to Bai Mucheng with a smile.

"Mucheng, what do you think of Long Xiu?"

"Brother Long Xiu is brave and resourceful, very outstanding."

"You really think so?"

"Um."

"That's great. I remember that you grew up together and went to the same school. You know each other well. Now that you two have reached the age of marriage, I think you are a perfect match. You can consider it. one time."

Long Qing no longer hid it and made it clear.

When Bai Mucheng heard Long Qing's words, she was also very surprised. She didn't expect that Long Qing called her here to get married, but she quickly calmed down and replied.

"Thank you, Master Long Qing. It's just that Brother Long Xiu is an extraordinary person as the second star envoy of the City of Stars, and I am just lucky enough to act as my father's deputy. How can I be worthy of Brother Long Xiu? And now I only want to do a good job." As the deputy speaker of the parliament, I will contribute my strength to the Red League, and other matters will not be considered for the time being."

After Long Qing heard that Bai Mucheng declined and expressed that she only wanted to have a career, she became even more optimistic about Bai Mucheng.

At this moment, she saw her own shadow on Bai Mucheng's body.

Long Qing said to Bai Mucheng with a smile.

"Don't refuse in a hurry. Listen to me and tell you slowly. I still understand this kid Long Xiu. His ideal is to lead the Red Alliance to glory. Your ideal is the same. I think the two of you are together. , can realize this ideal better. And when the time comes, we will be a family, Long Xiu will definitely support you, and I will fully support you."

Bai Mucheng naturally heard Long Qing's implicit meaning. As long as she married Long Xiu, he would fully support him and give her supreme rights.

Just when Bai Mucheng was about to speak, Long Qing smiled and took out an exquisite box. She opened it in front of Bai Mucheng and handed it over.

Inside the box, a golden injection was lying quietly.

"This is?"

Bai Mucheng looked at the injection, a trace of doubt flashed in his cold eyes.

Long Qing said to Bai Mucheng calmly.

"This is the divine potion. The reason why you are stuck at the LV4 bottleneck is because you don't have this thing. As for this divine potion, a total of three have been produced so far. I won't mention the first two. This is the third one. I guarantee that there is no fourth root in the whole world now. As for its importance, I don’t need to explain it anymore. I know that you are very close to Shen Qiu, but what I want to tell you is that he and you are not from the same world. The things you pursue are different, and the results are destined to be unsatisfactory. Now you have a better choice, power and strength are before you, it depends on how you choose? "

In Long Qing's eyes, Shen Qiu served as the third star envoy for power and opened a parasol company to make money. Such a person who pursues fame and profit is nothing more than a careerist.

After hearing Long Qing's words, Bai Mucheng also frowned. Her calm heart rippled like a lake, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Tick ​​tock!

At this time, light rain began to fall from the hazy sky, and raindrops continued to fall on the attic and the lake.

The mist on the lake became increasingly hazy, obscuring everything.

——

The different world of Dokoas·City of Puppet.

Long Er, Yun Qinghan, Qi Nan, Long Huai and others were blocked by a group of soldiers wearing heavy mechanical armor. The leader was a man wearing the uniform of the Major General of the Blue League, with dark skin and a tall and muscular body.

"who are you?"

Major General Paterbo looked at Long Er and others up and down, and asked in a bad tone.

Qi Nan replied in a low voice at this time.

"We are from the KPI department of Hongmeng."

"People from the Red Alliance? What are you doing here?"

When Paterbo heard Qi Nan's words, he frowned and asked.

Long Er didn't hide it and said to Paterbo.

"We are here to investigate Shen Qiu's matter."

"Oh, it turns out that we were investigating that matter. That's indeed what happened. But then again, is it worth sending people over with such a big fanfare for just such a small matter?"

Paterbo chuckled and replied with a nonchalant look on his face.

"What do you mean?"

When Long Huai heard Paterbo's words, he replied with a somewhat unhappy tone.

"What do you mean? Isn't it obvious? The person who committed the crime was the Third Star Envoy Shen Qiu. Can you afford to offend him? And isn't the victim one of your own Red League members? It won't be over until you suppress it. What a big deal it is. .”

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Long Huai replied somewhat annoyed.

"Nonsense? Why do you people dare to do this? Do you want to be a bitch and build a monument at the same time?"

"Keep your mouth clean, we are here to investigate the truth of the matter."

"Okay, don't pretend in front of me. It's as if you dare to arrest him if the evidence is conclusive. In short, this is your internal matter. You can do whatever you like."

Paterbo replied with a sneer.

Long Er suppressed his annoyance and said to Paterbo.

"I won't talk nonsense to you, I need your help."

"Why?"

"When the Red Alliance and the Blue Alliance cooperate, there is a treaty of mutual assistance."

"There is this treaty, so what? I have no intention of helping you. The crime scene is in Mengpi Street, the Puppet City. You can investigate it yourself! By the way, if you really want to arrest Shen Qiu, we have If I see him, I can reluctantly inform you."

Major General Paterbo said with a smile.

When Long Huai heard Paterbo's words about wanting to be spanked, his face was very ugly, as if he was spanking him.

However, he was still suppressed by Long Er's look.

Long Er then took a deep breath and replied.

"good!"

"let's go!"

Major General Paterbo then waved his hand and left with his subordinates.

Soon only Long Er and a few people were left in the whole street. Yun Qinghan looked at the backs of Paterbo and others leaving and said with a smile.

"It seems like we are very unpopular and hit a soft spot when we came up."

"It's so arrogant."

Long Huai cursed angrily.

"Don't be angry with them. It's normal for us not to be welcomed. This puppet city is a territory that the Blue League focuses on developing. Half of the entire city is occupied by the Blue League. Only when we appear at this juncture can they welcome us. Strange. If it were not bound by the alliance treaty, we would have taken action in the past."

Long Twenty replied calmly.

"I see, Lord Long Er, it seems you have done a lot of homework!"

Qi Nan replied thoughtfully.

"I just did a little homework. Let me briefly introduce this different world to you. The name of this different world is Dokoas. It is rumored that an extremely powerful civilization once lived here. The Puppet City where we are located is this The world’s first-class city, the entire city is filled with tyrannical puppet monsters.”

Long Er introduced with a solemn expression.

"A first-class city, how does it compare with the cities of Anjikara?"

"The strength is not much different. There are more than one first-class city like this. The most famous one is the City of Bones, which is right next door. The monster guarding that city is none other than the one who originally appeared in the Seventh Administrative District Monger. The MX·186 skeleton black knight of the city.”

"Didn't that skeletal black knight be killed by Shen Qiu in the end? Then wouldn't the city of bones become an empty city?"

Yun Qinghan asked with his eyes shining.

"It's not an empty city. There are still many monsters in it, but the difficulty of development has indeed dropped sharply. But don't think about it, that city has been plundered by the people of the Blue Alliance."

"Pity."

"It's a pity that the purpose of our coming here is not to compete with the Blue Alliance for food, and we can't compete with it. As far as I know, there is a special royal city above this puppet city, and that is the most terrifying thing."

Long Er said in a deep voice.

"I remembered that when the skeletal black knight was killed, there seemed to be a king who forcibly summoned it. Could that king be the royal city behind the city of puppets?"

Yun Qinghan asked with a change of expression.

"That's right."

"Wait a minute, if the people from the Blue Alliance attack the city lord of the Puppet City, will the other party summon the king?"

"I don't know, but it's possible."

"Then why don't we be affected?"

"Well, so we need to investigate that matter as soon as possible, find a way to catch the fake Shen Qiu, and then leave this world."

Long Er said seriously.

"Understood."

Yun Qinghan and others responded in a deep voice.

City of Bones, Southwest Underground Laboratory Base.

Rows of biochemical tanks are neatly located, with various lines and conduits connected to the tanks.

A naked young man was soaked in the viscous nutrient solution in the biochemical tank. Looking carefully, the man's facial features looked exactly like Shen Qiu's.

Looking from afar, one hundred biochemical culture jars were soaked in Chen Qiu.

In the innermost part of all the biochemical jars, there is a special culture glass jar, which is soaked with a piece of squirming milky white brain-like substance.

At this time, an old man wearing a white research coat, with a deformed and curved body, a mechanical eyeball embedded in his left eye, white hair, and a very mean appearance, reprimanded his subordinates with anger on his face.

“Why is the data still so unsatisfactory?”

"Sir Dr. Fedri, we don't understand either. We are all following your request."

The subordinates present said tremblingly.

This Dr. Fedri is none other than the doctor from Theta Corporation who was in charge of the Fish Island research.

At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps came.

"Dr. Fedri."

Dr. Fedri turned his head and looked over, only to see a man wearing gray modular armor with a cyan birthmark on his face and fierce eyes running over.

"What's wrong with Baze?"

"Dr. Fedri's situation is a bit bad. The Red Alliance has sent an investigation team to the Puppet City to investigate Shen Qiu's affairs."

"What the hell, why did the Red Alliance send people to investigate? Wasn't it Shen Qiu's own doing?"

"I don't know. I'm also very surprised, but according to the reports from the people below, they seem to think that someone else did it?"

Baze explained immediately.

"Someone else did it? How is it possible?"

Dr. Fidri replied angrily.

"Lord Fedre, I don't feel like Shen Qiu is the kind of person who would do something like that. Could it be that it was really someone else who did it, for example..."

When Baze finished speaking, he looked at Shen Qiu in the jars.

Fidry reacted immediately and said decisively.

"It can't be our experimental subjects. All the experimental subjects are here, not one is missing."

"Would that be a failure?"

Baze thought for a moment and asked.

"Do you think I'm that kind of idiot? I destroyed all the failed products and burned them until nothing was left. Do you think it's possible to fake the corpse?"

Fidry said angrily.
