Chapter 8 Chapter 204 Let's Go Back Together
"Senior sister, he once said that in the horror film that she encountered in her heart is the deeds of an apostle, it seems to be called Veruk." Zhang Chen recalled that Lian Yuxin once told him about heart refining.
"What is an apostle?" Zhang Chen immediately asked.
"The twelve most powerful people in the zero room are called 'apostle-apostles', a total of twelve."
Kou Zuo elegantly put a glass of red wine in front of him that was as bright as blood into his mouth, and explained to Zhang Chen very patiently.
"The word 'apostle' is not defined by someone, but by the consciousness of the Zero Lord. In one of the zero rooms there is a large white stone tablet with the twelve nightmares who have been given the title of 'apostles'. A thousand years ago, Nyaratotip, the name of the faceless, was on it. β
"Tenth master and apprentice? Ranked by strength? I wonder if you are one of them, my lord? Zhang Chen had no doubt that the trivialities in front of him must have a name on the so-called stone tablet.
"It is indeed ranked according to strength, and my king is the seventh apostle - Xing Yu. What you want to face is an apostle who is not much weaker than my king, and I am afraid that there should be no one in the headquarters of your Huaxia Kingdom who can face the 'apostle' alone. β
Kou Zuo put down the wine glass and looked at Zhang Chen in front of him.
"I think this matter, you can put it aside for the time being, come to the mew realm to meet with my king first, and I will find a way for you." Kou Zuo seemed to be very anxious to let Zhang Chen come to meet with him in the zero room.
"My lord, I have made up my mind, and I will try to reach the level of facing the apostles in three years." Zhang Chen looked at the other side with an extremely resolute gaze.
"Haha...... Well, my king wants to see what level you can reach in three years. Maybe the king is explaining it too simply and you don't understand the true meaning of the word 'apostle'. β
At this time, the white napkin placed on his collar was neatly folded and placed on the table in front of him, and then he got up. With his hands behind his back, he walked step by step along the side of the dining table thinking about Zhang Chen's position.
"In Zero, there are many realms like ours, and just like the nations of the world, each occupies a part of the land of Zero. However, there were only twelve 'apostles'. Those realms without apostles are like the poor and backward nations of your world, and the people within them live in misery every day. β
"Some of the great people who can even carve out the realm on their own can't be named an apostle, and you, a human prison envoy, want to reach this level in three years. If my son were to say such a thing, I would be ashamed of him for being a frog at the bottom of the well. β
As his mouth approached and his tone intensified, Zhang Chen was not affected by this.
Until the end, Kouzuo walked in front of Zhang Chen, emanating endless pressure from his body, but Zhang Chen still turned his head and said resolutely.
"I'll do it in three years' time. You can just look at it. β
In Zhang Chen's words, the title of the previous 'king' disappeared, and there was a feeling of being on an equal footing with the mouth at this moment.
"Smack!" A palm slapped on Zhang Chen's left shoulder at some point, and he brought his face close to Zhang Chen.
"Yes, I appreciate you. Looking forward to your table in three years......"
The moment the trivial words ended, Zhang Chen's consciousness immediately fell into his body. When his eyes opened, his back was completely covered with cold sweat, and the pressure brought to Zhang Chen by his mouth and close proximity was self-evident.
"How long have I been asleep!" Zhang Chen felt that he had fully recovered from his dream, but the sky outside the window was already a dusk scene.
"Zhang Chen. Come to the second floor. β
In less than two minutes after Zhang Chen was awake, the sound of the gods came. seemed to know that Zhang Chen was in a very special state in his sleep, so he didn't bother Zhang Chen.
Zhang Chen soon came to the room on the second floor of the Shenhou Mansion's Mansion, and the Shenhou seemed to have been waiting inside for a long time.
"Xin'er, she's already cooking, let's finish what we need to say, let's go down and have dinner together."
"Yes, Master."
"Gu Chen's matter. Haha, you're doing a great job. Some of Gu Chen's deeds, as a teacher, have also told you, this person's kindness is just because of the big opportunity and distorted his fragile heart. However, your behavior last night made Gu Chen start to face his true heart, if the situation is going for the better. Gu Chen, who came out after three years, may return to his former nature. β
"This ......" The first thing in Zhang Chen's mind came to mind was what Fu Jiang did to Gu Chen, but he didn't expect it to be really as Fu Jiang said.
"Therefore, General Mo Qing has come to the Information Department today to find a teacher and convey his gratitude to you as a teacher. General Mo Qing is the commander-in-chief of the entire Huaxia Kingdom, and he owes you a favor now, and I am afraid it will come in handy in the future. β
"Actually, I didn't ......"
Zhang Chen's words were immediately interrupted by Shen Hou, "Whether this matter is your fault or not, in the future, in front of anyone, you will pretend to do it yourself." β
"Disciple understands."
"The resolution of Gu Chen's matter must also let down the stone hanging in your heart. What happened to you in prison, your senior sister Xin'er explained it in detail with the teacher. β
"First of all, it is your blessing to be able to intersect with the predecessors of Tianjing, and it is very rare for you to meet with the seniors of Tianjing. If you have a chance to meet next time, be sure to take the initiative to seize some opportunities. β
"Yes."
"Secondly, I don't have to say anything about your use of the loopholes in the prison as a teacher, being a teacher is only a leading role for you, and it is your freedom to do whatever you want. Now hand the marked white cloth to the teacher, and he will help you determine the exact location. β
Zhang Chen immediately took out the cloth with the red cross mark in the Qiankun bag.
Shen Hou then took out an extremely rare map of the prison and compared it, and after a minute, a solemn expression appeared on Shen Hou's face.
"Master?" Zhang Chen asked tentatively.
"In the highly dangerous area, although the teacher said that there is no restriction on your freedom, this time you need to think carefully about it." After Shen Hou finished speaking, he threw the map of the prison room to Zhang Chen.
"This map is a gift from the master, it can increase by itself as the exploration of the prison dΓΉ, the number is scarce, and you need to keep it well. As for the corresponding area on the white cloth, I have marked it on the map for you, so you can think about it carefully after you take it back. β
Zhang Chen didn't rush to look at it, he just glanced at it with his spare eyes and put the map away.
"One more thing, there was a bit of a dispute at the UN meeting, and the meeting will be postponed for a month and then held again. So during this time, you can choose to stay here as a teacher, or you can go back to your hometown. But from the teacher's point of view, you must be going home to reunite with your family, right? β
Zhang Chen nodded without saying a word.
"Okay, Xin'er's meal should be almost done, let's go down and get together. There will not be many opportunities like this in the future. β
Night came after dusk, but in the Shenhou Mansion, there were lights shining through and full of laughter. At the dinner table, Zhang Chen learned that Shenhou and Lian Yuxin had spent the New Year in the Shenhou Mansion every year for so many years. If it weren't for Zhang Chen, who hadn't seen his parents for a long time, he would actually want to stay and accompany his master and sister.
Zhang Chen originally planned to rush back tonight, but under the retention of Senior Sister Lian Yuxin, he finally decided to spend the night here and set off early tomorrow morning.
"I just went to ask Worm Firefly Xiao Nizi if she wants to go back with me, Yizhi's house...... It seems that I have to bring two girls home for the New Year this year. β
Zhang Chen soon appeared on the periphery of the Forbidden City from the Hanging City, and Worm Firefly followed Elder Wu to practice in this Forbidden City every day, and every night and weekend, Elder Wu would not make any requirements for Worm Firefly.
"Brother Zhang Chen!"
Zhang Chen stopped in front of Tiananmen Square for only two minutes, and a lovely voice came from behind Zhang Chen.
The white hair that covered the face of the insect firefly looked very cute as before, and Zhang Chen could also feel that the insect firefly exuded the aura of a second-level prison director like himself.
"Firefly, your progress rate is a bit ......"
"Brother Zhang Chen, aren't you the same? It is all up to Master to supervise my serious practice every day and give me correct guidance, otherwise, how can I compare to Brother Zhang Chen's progress. β
"Okay, I'm going back to Tianfu City tomorrow, you want to go back with me, right? If it's Chinese New Year this year, why don't you go to my house? β
"Ahh Worm Firefly bit her lip, "I...... I still need to discuss it with Master. β
"Well, let's talk to Mr. Wu after we go around later, I believe that Mr. Wu is not a rigid person, and he will definitely let you go back at such an important time for the New Year."
Just as Zhang Chen said this, a divine consciousness appeared in the minds of Zhang Chen and Worm Firefly.
"Hehe, the old man is indeed not a rigid person, and I can't say some words in vain. In fact, a few days ago, she mentioned to me that she was going to follow you home for the New Year, and the old man has given permission, you can leave by yourself tomorrow, and let the old man send you away as well. β
When the transmission ended, all that was left was the red-faced insect firefly and the laughing Zhang Chen.
"Okay, stop laughing at you. We'll fly back early tomorrow morning, don't bother Wu Lao, let's go to the imperial city for a walk, and we'll go home early tomorrow morning. β
"Brother Zhang Chen, aren't you worried about Sister Yizhi?" Worm Ying followed behind Zhang Chen and suddenly asked.
"Worried, why not worried. But...... What can I do now? Zhang Chen smiled bitterly, and a trace of tears flashed in the corner of his eye.
"Let's go and rescue Sister Yizhi together in three years, okay?" Worm Firefly asked very seriously with wide black eyes.
"Of course, in three years, we will bring your sister Yizhi back for the New Year." (To be continued......)
