Chapter 9: Guiding the Way West

Behind World War II, there was a high-level ancient rock hidden bane, and mankind unintentionally possessed the nemesis of ancient rocks, the nuclear bomb.

Hua Banxue noticed that in addition to sadness, there were doubts in Kongxing's words. She tried to reassure, "Maybe your teacher really puts the righteousness of mankind in the most important position." ”

Kong Xing shook his head, and he said, "We all know that Teacher Xiahou is a righteous person, and this has been the case since ancient times. So for his willingness to sacrifice himself, the people of the entire Cloud City admired him. He raised his head and looked into the distance, and muttered, "But I still don't understand that the smile of the teacher before his sacrifice seems to be relieved to finally let go." Was he tired of immortality or tired of fighting Gurok? ”

Hua Banxue wanted to persuade Kong Xing, but she still didn't speak, she felt that Kong Xing didn't want to seek an answer from the two of them, but just confided in her.

Sure enough, Kongxing's expression was relieved. He said: "I'm sorry for the two, this matter is originally a family matter of our Cloud City, and it is not for outsiders." And it's been a long time, and I won't mention him anymore. ”

Hua Banxue nodded, and quickly changed the topic: "Master, tell us about the situation you have in Cloud City about this Gu Luo Ke attack." ”

Ku Xing said, "That's what I mean. ”

Cloud City sensed an anomaly when the meteorite where Gu Rok was hiding entered the atmosphere. They locked on the meteorite, and basically estimated the combat power of the ancient rock that came this time.

Ancient Rok attacks from beyond the sky have been extremely rare in the history of Cloud City's existence. Compared with previous attacks, there is not much difference in overall strength. However, what caught the attention of messengers such as the empty line was the time of the attack and the location of the crash.

Generally speaking, the interval between ancient Rock's attacks is about a few hundred years on average. But this attack is less than a hundred years after the last one. This kind of frequency makes Cloud City feel uneasy.

What is even more alarming to the very few cautious messengers is the location of this crash - the Eastern Wa Kingdom, which is the island country where the last high-level Gurok was killed by a nuclear bomb. Although most of the messengers in Cloud City disagreed with this, thinking that it was just a coincidence. But the empty line has a bad premonition. He has repeatedly analyzed the landing data of crashing meteorites and found that the falling trajectory of these meteorites has a very slight deviation from the natural falling trajectory. Empty Line believes that the crash site is likely to be deliberately designed.

Little Stone was confused. He asked, "Master, even if you deliberately fall into the Eastern Wa Kingdom, what can it mean?" ”

Kong Xing nodded and said, "Many people in Cloud City think the same way. He frowned and whispered, "I have an inference." The high-level Gu Luo Ke, who died with Teacher Xiahou decades ago, probably transmitted some kind of signal to Gu Luoke's base at the last moment, informing him of the combat power of the earthlings in this era and the location of his death. And it is very likely that Gu Rok, who came this time, came to obtain information on human weapon technology. ”

Hua Banxue said: "Judging from the records of the Langmu people, Gu Luoke is omnipotent in heaven and earth, and is good at concealment and control, and it is extremely difficult to destroy the Langmu people with their technical level, so why is he afraid of nuclear weapons alone?" ”

Kongxing thought about it for a while, but said, "I'm afraid this is the truth that all things are born and restrain each other." ”

Hua Banxue keenly sensed that Kongxing seemed to have avoided this question. She didn't ask, she just said, "Since Cloud City has already assessed their combat strength, is it just that we just need to concentrate our forces on going to the crash site of the Eastern Wa Kingdom and killing them all?" ”

To Hua Banxue's surprise, Kong Xing actually nodded. She had expected that the empty line would give a negative answer. But Kuhang then said something that surprised her greatly.

"According to Cloud City's plan, it is indeed as you said. All I need to do is gather a sufficient number of Source Field Fighters to go to the Eastern Wa Kingdom, and deliver a thunder blow while Gu Luok is still on hold. Kuhang seemed a little worried, obviously not quite appreciative of this strategy, "But if my reasoning is correct, then the ancient Rok who came here this time must be fully prepared." If you rush to deal with it according to the previous strategy, I am afraid that you will have to suffer a lot. ”

Kongxing stood up and said, "In the history of Cloud City, we have fought against Gu Rok countless times. It has been able to win every time, and has defended the earth and humanity to this day. But almost no one thought that the reason why Cloud City was able to win was because it was prepared for it. In the past, although the ancient Rock was powerful, it was either an ancient Ancient Rock who woke up from the ruins of the stratum, or a space wanderer who accidentally descended on Earth. Even the most recent high-level Ancient Rock was defeated by ignorance of the earth at that time and was caught off guard. But once they come prepared, they are definitely not something that can be dealt with by the preconceived mind. ”

Hua Banxue began to understand the intention of Kongxing's trip, and she said: "So the master came to me this time, not simply to gather fighters or messengers. She saw the approving expression on Kongxing's face, and then said, "However, even the powerful power of Cloud City can't guarantee victory, so what can we, the Source Field Powers who have just been activated, do?" ”

Kong Xing said: "Miss Hua doesn't have to be presumptuous. Not to mention your extremely rare ability to read stones, even the child Xiao Shi is the second messenger to appear in Dongzhou in the past thousand years. Besides, I don't want you to rush to the front line to fight Gu Rok, on the contrary, I need you to try to preserve your strength and not meet Gu Rok directly unless you have to. ”

Xiao Shi asked curiously, "So what are we going to do?" Hidden? ”

Empty Xing smiled and said, "It's not that you have nothing to do. Hone your strength. I have a hunch that this battle with Gurok will be extremely hard, and I am afraid that I will not be able to win without extraordinary strength. ”

Hua Banxue said: "Master, I understand your hard work. But to be honest, we still don't know how to prepare. How to grind? ”

Kong Xing said: "Miss Hua, the letter stone you just obtained is the beginning of the training. As he spoke, he took out an old envelope from his pocket and handed it to Hua Banxue, then said, "Here are some messages I left for the two of you. There are also clues to the letter stone inside. If you can trust me, you will follow the clues all the way west. ”。

Hua Banxue heard the words "all the way to the west", and her heart moved, is there really a certain number in the dark? The route I chose to travel west at that time was a kind of call that I felt intuitively, and now the suggestion of the empty line coincides with this. She took the envelope quietly, and did not rush to open it, first thanked the empty line: "In any case, I still want to thank you for giving so much information openly. I think Cloud City is also an extremely secret existence in history, I'm afraid that ordinary fighters won't have the opportunity to know about it, right? ”

Kong Xing was a little surprised, Hua Banxue suddenly mentioned this, but still nodded.
