Three years later, in the winter.

On this day, it snowed heavily in the Mondor Grand Canyon, and the snow fell all day, so that the whole world was wrapped in a silver coat.

At the western foot of the canyon, a blood-colored stone floated strangely in the sky, and the snowflakes kept falling on the hard stones, but as long as they got close to it, they quickly disappeared, and the hard stones would increase a little bit imperceptibly.

The hard rock has been flying in the radiant winds at the western foot of the canyon for more than three years.

At first, it was less than the size of a grain of rice, and it was completely a large speck of dust.

In the past few years, every time it rained or snowed, it would get a little bigger, until this winter's heavy snowfall, and it was already the size of a broad bean.

The bloodstone floated and fluttered, as if it was growing in size, and the radiant wind could no longer carry its weight, and it gradually fell towards the forest below.

On a 100-meter-tall thick paulownia tree, a colorful poisonous python with two heads is coiled around the trunk.

It spat out dark green Moriran Shinko, and its two huge oval heads looked up at the sky.

The long, narrow pupils looked excited, as if they felt that something delicious was approaching it.

Bloodstone passed through the thick canopy and fell downward, just in time to be targeted by the two-headed brindle python, which couldn't wait to swallow the bloodstone into its mouth.

The python straightened its upper body with satisfaction, its lower half of the snake body was wrapped around the trunk of the tree, and the python of more than sixty meters stretched its waist, and when the snow on the upper canopy was about to fall, it shook a lot.

The last time I ate something that smelled so appealing to it was a year ago, when it was a common one-lock poison python.

After eating a strange-smelling fruit in a waterhole, it grew a second head and advanced to the realm of two locks, not only the snake body was longer and stronger, but the venom was also several times stronger at once.

The two-headed python slid down the tree, trying to find a safe place to digest the harvest this time.

It was already feeling the warmth of its abdomen, and before it could rejoice in the effect of the food, the warm sensation immediately turned into a tingling pain, and the pain continued to intensify exponentially.

The severe pain caused the python to lose its strength, fall under the tree, and roll desperately, even though it almost lost its mind in pain, it still did not scream.

Although it only opens the two locks in its brain, its IQ is as high as that of a child of a few years old, and it already has the ability to remember and think simply.

It knew that as soon as it roared, several nearby beasts would soon appear in front of it and eat it.

The python, which was more than 60 meters long and three meters thick, rolled in the forest, and the huge snake body hit the trunk of the tree, causing the snow on the canopy to fall and hit the ground.

After a few minutes, the two-headed python finally stopped rolling and lay on the ground, losing all its life.

Its originally stout snake body had shrunk in a circle, and after ten minutes, the body of the poisonous python was only a dry snake skin, and in the center of the snake skin, a ball-sized ball of flesh was wrapped.

A blood-red slender tentacle tore through the dry snake skin and stretched out into the void, and then a large amount of white liquid flowed from the void down the pipes inside the tentacle to the flesh.

With an adequate supply of nutrients, the meat ball gradually grows.

Gradually, it stretched into the shape of an adult man.

……

Hongjing base.

As the only super-large base in the country and only three in the world, the Hongjing base has more than 20 million residents, accounting for one-fifth of the country's existing population.

Due to the huge breakthrough in neuronal connection technology two years ago, a large number of new things have poured into people's lives, among which drone mecha and even more huge manned mecha came into being.

This kind of mecha with steel and iron arms, equipped with all kinds of powerful firepower, but can be controlled remotely or directly by ordinary people. As soon as it appeared, it was mass-produced by various bases around the world and put into the battle with the demons.

The strength of a small remote-controlled mecha with a height of three or four meters is equivalent to that of an ordinary monster with one lock to two locks, and as for the large manned mecha that is more than six meters high, the top mecha experts are already able to temporarily compete with the Polar Shadow Dog Demon who has just entered the four locks.

Hundreds of thousands of small mechas, tens of thousands of top evolutionaries, and hundreds of large mechs fought for months and months, taking the centuries-old city of Hongjing from the hands of the demons, and tens of millions of demons were forced to leave the city and sneak into the vast forests of the north and disappear.

After the Iwaki War three years earlier, Kamimine made a resignation speech on television that night.

The next day, a general took his place, but he did not hold back the anger of the people.

The video of the figure in the mushroom cloud resisting for tens of seconds and being swallowed up from abroad into the country ignited emotions in an instant, and tens of thousands of people took to the streets to protest the authorities' actions.

At the instigation of the four remaining big conglomerates, the protests lasted for a long time, and finally forced the new boss to step down after half a month, and forced the authorities to agree to the five-ministry and one-council system proposed by the four major conglomerates.

The five departments are the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Crime, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Rites, and one will be the mercenary union.

The authorities are in charge of the military and the Xing, and the four major consortia are in charge of the three ministries of households, industry, and rites. Each ministry has a minister and five councillors, who serve as the top administrator of the base.

As for the mercenary union, except for the minister, who is an old martial artist with martial arts and virtues, the five councillors are all leaders of top mercenary groups.

……

On this day, on a bustling street in the central area of the Hongjing base, the atmosphere was a little solemn.

In front of the Yellow Crane Restaurant, which used to be full of guests, two teams of people were facing each other.

Pedestrians on the road were even driven to the side of the road from afar, looking at the situation on the field from a distance.

A grim-faced middle-aged man was holding an unconscious boy, and two evolutionaries were standing next to him, constantly using their healing powers to make the boy's severed arm heal quickly.

The middle-aged man stared at the cold woman opposite and the girl behind her, looking furious as if he wanted to choose someone to devour.

"Nangong! Your godsister cut off my own son's arm, and you don't want to explain? Zuo Leng said gloomily.

As the second son of the contemporary owner of the Zhengyang Consortium, he dared to directly slap Nangong Liuli, and he was backed by the entire consortium.

The glamorous woman was dressed in delicate purple light armor, and her jet-black hair fluttered in the cold air after the snow. She looked at the gloomy man with a smug smile on the corner of her mouth in front of her, and she felt a little tired.

As the contemporary owner of the Nangong Consortium and the fourth super evolutionary in China, she is confident and cold, and she has always shown the temperament of a domineering queen, and rarely hesitates to be embarrassed.

But now, she hesitated, with her domineering purple flame, this little person in front of her was a matter of fire.

But the current Zhengyang Consortium is no longer what it used to be, and after the Zhengyang Consortium, which first began to spend a lot of money to buy the Evolver, sold countless industries, it raised the three major mercenary groups of Zhengyang, Dongyang, and Nanyang, and these three mercenary groups ranked third, fifth and tenth respectively in the national mercenary group, that is to say, they accounted for one-third of the top ten mercenary groups in the country.

It is true that she is the fourth strongest in the country, but she is only the fourth lock seventh order, and there are at least five powerhouses in the four lock realms owned by the Zhengyang Consortium.

For the powerhouses of the Four-Lock Realm, most of the thermal weapons are useless, even the ace mecha piloted by a senior mecha master will be smashed to pieces by the Four-Lock powerhouse after dozens of moves.

In other words, only the stronger Evolvers can deal with the powerhouses of the Four Locks Realm.

It is precisely because of this that the Zhengyang Foundation can seize the position of the Minister of Industry, and can also insert two parliamentarians in the Ministry of Industry, Rites, and Households.

And the three members of her Nangong family consortium were isolated and scattered into the Ministry of Industry, Rites, and Households, and their power was almost empty.

Her Nangong Liuli's purple flame is domineering, but she can defeat two four locks at most and draw three four locks. As for the Ice Emperor, Iron Wing, Thunder King, Dead Domain, and Fire King under the Zhengyang Consortium, they are all in the top 20 on the national powerhouse list, and each of them is not easy to match.

Especially the Ice Emperor, who is only one place lower than her in the rankings, can only win between five and five.

For a moment, Nangong Liuli was full of thoughts, and her bright eyes were full of hesitation and struggle.
