EBE Chapter 328: Battle of Two Kings (1)
Chapter 328: Battle of Two Kings (1)
"Mr. Cheng, how much do you know about the cracks and hollows?"
In front of the gate of Chaoyang Investigation Bureau, Qin Tian faced the old man sitting on the recliner in front of him. He stood straight, his soldier's body was like the tallest mountain, keeping all foreign enemies out. Those who invade China will be punished no matter how far away they are.
The old man looked like he was about to die as he lay on the recliner. He did not show any response to Qin Tian's question. All he showed was his body that was constantly aging. From his original age of over sixty, he has gradually become over ninety years old now, and will soon break the hundred-year mark. It seemed that even a trace of fine powder in the air blowing into the old man's nostrils would cause his already limited life to decline further.
Qin Tian seemed to be able to see that behind this human being's strongest space ability user, the shadow of the god of death gradually appeared behind him, and the sickle specially used to reap death had already come to the old man's neck, and would take his life away in the next moment.
Qin Tian knew Cheng Lao's situation. This rapidly aging body was simply gradually merging with the original body. The throne of the Shenzhou Alliance that Cheng Lao had guarded for more than sixty years was about to be replaced by a new owner.
The current situation of the Shenzhou Alliance is very serious. Once Cheng Lao dies completely, the strength of his clones in various places will be greatly reduced. The creatures from the border seem to have smelled that this man’s life is about to end. A large number of strange beasts are gathering at the border. Once a charge is launched, the border line of the Shenzhou Alliance will fall completely.
In addition to those people from the Sky Eagle Federation, there are many undercover agents from the Federation within the search bureau that Qin Tian has collected in the country. It is possible that the high-level officials of the Shenzhou Alliance have also been invaded by enemies. The future of the alliance is in jeopardy, and a way to break the deadlock is urgently needed.
"Well........"
The old man on the recliner wanted to speak, but because the strength in his body to maintain his physical condition had been exhausted, Qin Tian had to get close to him if he wanted to hear what Old Cheng said.
"My body is almost reaching its limit."
The first sentence was just like this. Qin Tian naturally knew that Cheng Lao was almost at his limit. This might be the last message that an old man who was about to die wanted to leave in this world as many messages as possible.
But Qin Tian found that Cheng Lao's eyes were not on him, but on the sky. The fake sky above the search bureau had disappeared, and the smoky sky of Chaoyang City appeared before his eyes.
"You should know that I have been able to protect Shenzhou for more than 60 years, relying not only on my own strength, right?"
Old Cheng was still talking to the sky. Qin Tian was a little confused. He looked at the sky and saw nothing. Maybe Old Cheng didn't even have the strength to lift his head?
After all, the space barrier that maintained the entire city provided the army with enough time to rescue more than 100,000 people.
"In my hand, I have a key. It is the key to the gate that seals the two worlds. Once Shenzhou is completely conquered, I will open the gate. At the same time, I will become the biggest sinner in the two worlds."
Elder Cheng kept talking, but when Qin Tian heard it, he immediately looked at the old man with a look of horror as if struck by thunder.
"So, I hope that in the future, we can still preserve Shenzhou. I can no longer care about other places, but you must ensure that the human fire belonging to this world can continue to be preserved."
"Qin Tian."
When Cheng Lao's voice appeared in Qin Tian's ears, the young man immediately shuddered all over and came to Cheng Lao to look at him.
"Mr. Cheng, what's the matter?"
Qin Tian's reaction brought a smile to Cheng Lao's face. It was a smile from an old man to the younger generation.
"Do you want to inherit my position?"
Elder Cheng saw ambition in the eyes of this young man, the desire to bring Shenzhou back to its former glory, and even to take it to a higher level under his leadership, so that the Shenzhou Alliance would no longer worry about the border, the cracks in the sky, and the threats from the Sky Eagle Federation.
However, Elder Cheng saw a much greater desire in this young man. What he wanted was not only to become the strongest human being, but also to be a small Shenzhou Alliance.
Seeing this, Mr. Cheng felt relieved.
"In the near future, I will choose a successor to inherit my position and control the life and death of the entire Shenzhou Alliance. You must have heard what I just said. I do have a key in my hand that is enough to destroy two worlds. Even though I am about to die, I still have the strength to use this key to open the door."
"Also, I believe you know what the consequences are of the death of an SS-level space-based esper, right?"
Qin Tian nodded. After a psychic obtains extraordinary powers, the consequences of death are also very serious. In the space system, death will cause abnormalities in the surrounding space. A large number of space ripples will appear, just like an invisible blender. Once you come into contact with these vortices, you will be sucked in all at once, and your life or death will be unknown.
“I hope I can embrace the sky one last time.”
The meaning of Cheng Lao's words was very clear, and Qin Tian also understood what Cheng Lao meant.
"I will arrange it."
"I hope that the Shenzhou Alliance will get better and better in your hands."
From beginning to end, Old Cheng did not answer Qin Tian's questions. Seeing Old Cheng like this, he knew that Old Cheng was planning not to leave. Although it was just a clone, Qin Tian felt regretful.
"Qin Tian, your army is still in the city, right?"
Qin Tian nodded.
"Then withdraw your troops from the city. There are no living people in this city anymore. The only ones left are the monsters that have been infected by the erosion."
A flash of light suddenly appeared in the gray fog in the sky and shone on Cheng Lao's face. Cheng Lao knew that this was their answer of agreement.
So, Cheng Lao slowly stood up and walked step by step to Qin Tian. Qin Tian looked at the old man, whose shoulders had already borne too much.
"This city will soon become a battlefield between two kings. The two kings will be fighting against each other. If you want to fight those monsters in this city, your ordinary people will not be able to withstand the turmoil in the game. Only those with special abilities may be able to block the impact of this turmoil."
"In order to avoid more unnecessary casualties, you should immediately withdraw your troops from the city. Your plan still requires these troops, right? Then, don't let more people die."
Qin Tian was stunned. Has his plan already been known by Mr. Cheng?
