Chapter 42: Ji Fan
"You ......" once again refreshed the cognition of the girl in front of her, Ji Ruyu calmed down a little agitated mood, and said softly: "Although I don't know how you know these things, but ......"
"You're right, the 'Sharp Gold Core' in the Sky Canopy Tower was used more than two hundred years ago, during the First Akatsuki War."
Ji Ruyu's eyes drooped slightly, her expression was a little complicated, and she said: "It was also from that time that the Gonglian gradually began to become different. ”
"Who's that guy?" Mu Bei hurriedly asked, "Who is the person who successfully activated Ruijin?" ”
seemed to be a little puzzled by Mu Bei's anxiety, Ji Ruyu still said: "He is the first leader of the Communist Federation and the thirty-third generation head of the Ji family. ”
"Ji Fan."
"Ji Fan......" Mu Bei muttered to himself, looked at Ji Ruyu and asked, "Then how is he now?" ”
"Not long after the end of the First Akatsuki War, he died." Ji Ruyu said lightly.
"How is that possible?! Being able to activate the existence of Ruijin, how could a powerhouse of that level be so short-lived! Mu Bei shouted emotionally, his red eyes full of incredulity.
"Mu Bei, how did you know about this kind of thing?" Ji Ruyu really couldn't help but ask.
"Impossible...... How is this possible...... When pigs fly. Mu Bei was completely in a state of confusion, she covered her head with her hands, her expression was in a trance, and she kept repeating these words.
"Ruijin is dead?"
"The inheritance is broken?"
"How could he die?"
Seeing the girl's dejected and extremely wrong appearance, Ji Ruyu hurriedly stood up, held her body, let her sit back on the chair, and tried to calm her down: "Mubei, don't worry, I'm ...... It was true that the man was dead, but he died to save the world. ”
Hearing Ji Ruyu's words, Mu Bei's eyes looked at her, looked at her somewhat complicated eyes, and said softly: "Save this world? ”
"Yes...... What ......"
Mu Bei's words were endless, but Ji Ruyu understood, she suddenly laughed, turned her head, looked out the window, and looked at the silver crescent moon, with a certain heavy emotion brewing in her eyes.
"Do you know why this piece of moonshine is so white and so immaculate?
There was no sound behind her, and Ji Ruyu didn't care, she walked to the window, pushed open the window, stretched out her white palm, and tried to hold up a touch of moonlight.
The moonlight is like practice, like water, quietly flowing through her fingers.
Looking at this scene, the charming woman in the red dress smiled and continued: "Sacrificing a person's life in exchange for precious time and opportunities for the whole world. ”
"I know, it sounds great."
"But I can't understand it."
Turning around, she chuckled and said, "Maybe I'm too selfish, but if someone else did it, maybe I would really admire that person." ”
"But that person is him, and I am only at a loss in my heart."
"Since you know so much, how much do you know about the truth of the Sky Curtain Tower?"
Mu Bei gradually calmed down, although her mood was still extremely low, she sighed deeply, raised her head a little tiredly, looked at Ji Ruyu and said, "That black tower, Ruijin, and ...... Sky? ”
"If this canopy is really what I thought, I seem to understand his death......"
"Can you tell me about all this? Dean of the College. ”
Ji Ruyu sat back on the chair at the table, spread her hands indifferently, and said, "Okay, since you want to hear it, then I might as well say a few more words." ”
……
One hundred and eight years, a summer night.
The headquarters of the Gonglian in Zhongmuzhou suddenly received a distress signal from the branch of the Gonglian in Nanmuzhou.
It was also the first time that Akatsuki really showed its hideous face in front of the world.
Red rain fell from the sky on Nanmu Island, and the whole world was shrouded in the haze of the red moon.
……
"Although it was only a short night, and even most of the people were asleep, there were still many people who saw that horrible image." Ji Ruyu said lightly: "Later, even if the official refuted the rumors, and completely blocked the news to prohibit the circulation of speech, and the violators were punished with death, there are still people in the people who know about it." ”
"When the red moon is in the sky, the giant beast roars."
"The defense line established by the Chuanmeng in Nanmu Continent was almost instantaneously defeated, but fortunately, the Red Demon did not invade the city, and was intercepted halfway."
Ji Ruyu said with a complicated expression: "The support forces of the Communist Federation quickly rushed over, and Ji Fan went there in person, and there he completed one of the greatest things in his life. ”
"That is, the canopy of heaven ......"
Mu Bei didn't speak, what kind of existence the canopy is, she may know better than Ji Ruyu.
"The Five Makucontinents weren't originally named that, but because of him, they were changed to the Five Makucontinents."
"The canopy of heaven protects this world, obliterating the brilliance of the red moon from the outside, and also greatly weakening the power of the red demon." Ji Ruyu continued: "Yanlin, who has lost most of its strength...... That is, the culprit of the first Red Moon War, the first lord-level red demon, was killed by Ji Fan with a single blow with the power of Ruijin. ”
"And the core of Yanlin has also become the energy core of the Tianmu Tower in Nanmuzhou."
Mu Bei looked at Ji Ruyu, slowly opened his mouth, and said, "So...... Ji Fan, what did he use to exert the power of Ruijin, the so-called god-level armor? ”
Ji Ruyu was stunned, looked at Mu Bei strangely, and said, "You even know this?" ”
"Is it ...... the 'God of Sharp Gold'?"
“……”
After hesitating for a moment, Ji Ruyu nodded slowly. Mu Bei slowly stood up, bowed lightly at Ji Ruyu, and said, "Thank you for the protection and information of the head of the academy today, Mu Bei will remember it." ”
"Hey, little girl, what do you mean by that? The lady you want to know has told you, and you haven't said a word about what I want to know! As soon as he slapped the table, Ji Ruyu stood up, raised his eyebrows at Mu Bei, and said angrily.
"What do you want to know, Headmaster?" Mu Bei asked.
"Your true origin." Ji Ruyu said in a deep voice.
Facing Ji Ruyu's question, Mu Bei shook his head lightly and said: "I can't say anything about this matter, I'm sorry, but this is just a way to protect myself, in short, I don't belong to the Communist Federation or the Chuan Alliance, if I have to say it, I can only represent myself, and I have no hostility towards any of you." ”
"Then why do you know so many things? Even our Ji family's "God of Ruijin" knows? Ji Ruyu's eyes sharpened, and he shouted in a deep voice: "The secret of the prototype armor, everyone who knows it is an absolute high-level among the two major forces, and they will not confide in the slightest bit of information at all." ”
"Because ......" Mu Bei smiled, raised his head, and imperceptible vicissitudes and memories flashed in his ruby eyes.
We've fought side by side......
"Someone told me about it." didn't care about Ji Ruyu's reaction, Mu Bei said.
"I once met a person who told me a lot of things, and she said that all this time, she was trying to fight the Red Demon, constantly hovering on the edge of life and death."
"She's lived a long time, she's been to many places, and she's seen a lot of people."
"She kept telling herself that you won't be alone forever and that one day, you'll find those who will be able to walk with you."
“……”
Ji Ruyu's face darkened instantly, she knew that such an answer was tantamount to saying nothing.
"Okay, you don't have to make up any more stories, the old lady is too lazy to listen to you anymore, if you are not a student of Perthvia, the old lady's knife is now on your neck." Ji Ruyu looked at her indignantly and said, "A stinky girl who doesn't have a word of truth in her mouth." ”
Mu Bei blinked and smiled, "Thank you, Sister Captain." ”
"Come out with me!"
