Chapter 180: Crisis
After everything was over, Lao Cao took Li Xin'an downstairs and submitted the architectural drawings and the location of the house chosen by Li Xin'an to the people of the construction department of the logistics department.
The people in the construction department frowned, as if they were worried that Li Xin'an had put forward harsh construction requirements.
But after looking at the house, he breathed a sigh of relief, his attitude improved a lot, and he said to Li Xin'an with a smile: "It can be built within an hour, please wait a while." ”
"Okay, thank you. ”
Then Li Xin'an and Lao Cao left the work building of the logistics department and came to the door.
Li Xin'an said: "This underground city feels so smart, does it have Internet technology?"
Lao Cao said: "The people in the scientific research department reproduced the technology of the Internet, but it was very rough and could not be applied in practice, so they chose something more convenient, that is, to use Oneiroi.
Our entire base is based on the use of the Oneiroi, its divine power is very special, it can use the power of the soul to build a dream world, it is like a real world, we use this feature, through the formation of the power of the Oneiroi in the operation of our city, saving a lot of resource consumption. ”
Li Xin'an sighed: "It's really smart, but we live in this underground city, so what about the relatives or friends of the travelers in this world?"
Lao Cao replied: "There is no need to worry about this matter, each of us has crossed over, and most of us have parents and families, and these emotions cannot be completely separated, so we have two choices."
The first option is to live in the underground city, this part of the traveler has half of the share, most of their parents and relatives have died, and they have suffered a lot of torture, and they are not willing to make friends with people in this world again, so they live in the underground city, and will only go out when they go out on a mission.
There are also many travelers who no longer live here, which is the second option, they have a new family in this world, and they have a lot of feelings, and they only come here when they are in a meeting or have a mission.
And the iron law of this underground city is that their relatives and friends cannot enter, so they can only live outside, and the traverser cannot reveal their identity to their relatives, if it does, it is necessary to pull people who know about this matter to our organization.
In addition to the time-travelers, there are many people in our Traveler Alliance who know and recognize our native world, and they are willing to help us do things, and most of these people are the families, sons, or partners of the Travelers, who are managed by the Indigenous Peoples Management Department, and give them jobs and generous benefits.
We have a lot of properties, such as auction venues, restaurant chains, etc., or departments that are not so secretive under the command of various departments, which are enough to provide them with job opportunities.
But our bottom line is that we can't reveal our existence to ordinary people who don't know about our existence, if you tell someone about the Traveler Alliance, it's best to pull him into our organization, otherwise there may be very bad consequences, or even death.
It must not affect the safety of the traverser, this is our bottom line. ”
Li Xin'an said to Lao Cao: "I have a younger brother in this world, and I told him about the Traveler Alliance, but he is very obedient, and I will let him join our organization." ”
Lao Cao said: "You can arrange him to work in our Exploration Department, and I will give him a job within the establishment, or you can find a job in the city and let the Aboriginal Management Department arrange it for you." ”
Li Xin'an nodded and agreed.
Speaking of this, Li Xin'an suddenly remembered and asked: "Can you find someone related to the Oneiroi here, there is a traverser, it is my brother's master, she was captured by the Oneiroi's men, and a very strange thing was implanted, it seems to be a nightmare, which can devour the soul and grow, which is very dangerous." ”
Lao Cao's face suddenly became serious, "You said that a traverser was placed by Oneiroi's men?"
Li Xin'an nodded, but I don't know if she has joined the Traveler Alliance.
Lao Cao hurriedly said: "That mark should be the faint incarnation of divinity separated from the god of dreams, if what you say is true, then that girl may have been polluted by the divine incarnation separated from the god of dreams, which means that she has become a believer in the god of dreams."
And since there is one who has been planted with the incarnation of divinity, then there will definitely be more, the number of traversers we have found has increased exponentially in recent years, we thought that the number of traversers has increased, it seems that it is very likely that Oneiroi did it, he deliberately sent those traversers into the traverser alliance, and these traversers have been polluted, and there are already enemies inside us, which is likely to cause us huge losses. ”
Li Xin'an asked, "Is it so serious? Is Oneiroi so terrible?"
Lao Cao changed his appearance in the past, and said solemnly: " No matter how weak it is, it is a god, we have studied it for thousands of years, but we have only found that it is difficult to match, with indescribable divine power, you also know that the sixth-level transcendent is a threshold for the transcendent, when the transcendent reaches the sixth level, he will have a domain, his strength will change qualitatively, and after being promoted from the seventh-level transcendent to the god, there will be one more thing, that is the law, the seventh-level powerhouse is as big as the gap between the fourth-level transcendent and the seventh-level powerhouse.
We can trap it now because its origin was injured, it was in a weak period, and it was imprisoned by the God of Dreams formation, which had been strengthened for thousands of years, and even some transcendents sacrificed their lives to strengthen it, including many seventh-level powerhouses, who chose to use their lives as the foundation after they had no hope of becoming gods, and turned into a formation that imprisoned the God of Dreams.
There are also countless transcendents who have spent their lives repairing and upgrading formations, and our Traverser Alliance is as proud as a cloud, but even if it takes nearly half of its manpower and material resources to seal Oneiroi, there are still a few dangerous things that have happened.
In the past few thousand years, although the Oneiroi was asleep, he also resisted many times, and each time it caused us great losses, but fortunately it did not escape.
And now, if someone controlled by Oneiroi enters our Traveler Alliance, it will be dangerous, the strongest barriers are often breached from within, and if they find our loopholes, it will be easy to destroy our underground city or release Oneiroi.
No, without further ado, you go shopping by yourself first, and I have to inform the Grand Elder about this.
Li Xin'an nodded, and Lao Cao left immediately, and Li Xin'an couldn't help but be anxious when he thought that Qi Zuo was still alone outside, and he had been away for a day.
Li Xin'an walked around for a while, and then prepared to return to the hotel, it has been out for nearly a day today, and Qi Zuo should be in a hurry.
He took the map given to him by the people from the logistics department today and read it carefully, and then walked along the road to the exit, and after going through layers of inspections, Li Xin'an walked out.
This road is different from the one from the one from which it came, there are many roads in the underground city to the outside world, and each road has a hidden exit.
The exit of the road Li Xin'an chose was near the hotel where they lived, and there were people standing guard along the way, and finally Li Xin'an walked out of a department store.
Li Xin'an bought a lot of delicious food on the road, and walked in the direction of the hotel, only to see Qi Zuo and a cute panda sitting on the steps at the entrance of the hotel, waiting there with their hands on their heads, attracting groups of pedestrians to turn their heads to watch.
Li Xin'an was warm, and when he walked in front of the two, Qi Zuo and Rolling both raised their heads to look at Li Xin'an, Qi Zuo's eyes were full of surprise, and Rolling Roll sniffed the good things in Li Xin'an's bag with his nose.
Qi Zuo asked, "Have you found any news about my master?"
Li Xin'an didn't know how to answer, so he said, "I told the people of the Traverser Alliance today, and they are helping us find it." ”
Qi Zuo nodded, and then the two returned to the hotel room together.
The two of them and a panda began to eat food quietly, and the room was filled with the aroma of food, which seemed a little warm.
In the evening, Li Xin'an said to Qi Zuo: "What are you doing at night? Those hard disks are all good-looking, why don't you go out for a walk." ”
Qi Zuo shook his head, and then injected some energy into his storage ring, and a basket suddenly appeared in front of the two, which was full of video discs.
Li Xin'an laughed dumbly, he didn't expect Qi Zuo to be obsessed with watching movies, and if it goes on like this, it is also known as the trend of otaku.
Li Xinan smiled: "Haha, then you can watch it tonight, tomorrow you have to go out for a walk, children will become short-sighted if they watch too much TV." ”
Qi Zuo nodded, and took out an exaggerated video disc from it, which should be drawn by Ultraman fighting monsters, after all, this kind of low-cost movie is very easy to make, and people in this world can really fly, and even the cost of hanging wires is saved.
Li Xin'an also watched it with curiosity, but he didn't expect this Ultraman to be very interesting, and just as he was seeing the excitement, there was a sudden knock on the door of the hotel.
The two were stunned for a moment, they have no relatives and no reason here, no one should come to disturb them, Li Xin'an was also a little puzzled, his work should be arranged tomorrow when he goes, so no one should be here now.
Li Xin'an said: "I'll go and see who it is, it may be someone from the Traverser Alliance." ”
Qi Zuo nodded and obediently agreed.
Li Xin'an came to the door of the room and was about to open the door, when he suddenly paused, and exuded his divine sense to probe outside the door.
In Li Xin'an's consciousness, there was nothing outside the door, and at this time, the knock on the door sounded again.
"No Consciousness Fluctuations? Is it a puppet? Or is someone deliberately hiding their Divine Sense? This is the same way the black-robed man who attacked me earlier used to hide it. ”
Li Xin'an held the hilt of the Blood Flame Crazy Lion Knife in one hand, and summoned three war pets at the same time, and the three war pets also instantly understood what Li Xin'an was thinking, and immediately concealed their own energy fluctuations and hid around the room; Li Xin'an summoned Xiao Bai stored in the square again, Xiao Bai stayed behind Li Xin'an, and looked at the door vigilantly.
"Hey, it's coming!"
Li Xin'an replied and slammed the door open.
"Whoosh!"
Before he could see what was outside the door, two vines like spikes shot towards Li Xin'an, with an extremely fast speed, producing a sound of breaking wind.
"Boom!"
The white fox's tail immediately rolled up Li Xin'an and retreated, but the vines were extremely fast and were about to catch up with Li Xin'an, but fortunately, the deer spirit added a protective shield to Li Xin'an in time, and the vines hit the defensive shield and did not break through.
And from outside the door, a group of black-robed people suddenly rushed in, four men and three women, each of them had a powerful aura, and they were all transcendents above the fifth level.
A short-haired woman had set up an isolation formation around her, isolating this side of the world from the outside world, and no one could hear the sound of the fight or sense the energy fluctuations.
These black-robed people were about to attack Li Xin'an, and the war pets who were lying in ambush immediately rushed up and fought with them, but there was still a man who broke through the encirclement and attacked Li Xin'an.
"Damn! I'm besieged! Qi Zuo run! If I'm attacked, use the white ball to protect myself!"
Li Xin'an shouted at Qi Zuo while taking out the Blood Flame Madness Lion Knife to fight a man who rushed up.
And Qi Zuo stood in place, looking at a woman with tears in his eyes, and muttered, "Master......"
In the end, it turned into a huge roar, as if to release all thoughts and grievances: "Master!"
