A certain Gobi in the northwest of China.

The wind and sand roared, the population was rare, and the eyes looked at a barren scene.

A white moon hangs in the sky, spreading a layer of silver-gray ribbon for the endless Gobi Desert, and in a high place on the Gobi, there is a mountain that has been eroded by wind and sand all the year round and exposed a red rock wall, revealing a small section from the desert.

In the mountains of the Gobi Desert, there is now the largest military power department on the planet.

General Directorate of Earth's Planetary Defense.

In the past, the "Earth Defense Bureau" formed in preparation for the arrival of extraterrestrial spiritual stars was its predecessor, and another predecessor of this department is the "Special Operations Division" and the "Mysterious Incident Contact Investigation Team" more than 20 years ago.

Today's "Earth Planetary Defense Bureau" is based on those two departments, and the defense organization against the alien "demon world" is established.

Just tonight, after a trance in Bernard's eyes, his heart seemed to think of something, his face did not look good, and then, without saying a word, he walked out of his room.

Outside his room was a circular passageway, six meters wide and long leading to the depths, and I don't know how far it was, it was filled with sci-fi metal.

Whenever Bernard passed through the passage and met the white-clothed scientific researchers on the road, he would stop slightly to greet him, and call him "Dr. White".

Seven years later, after the Republic expanded its exploration of extraterrestrial planets, coupled with the artificial intelligence-assisted research provided by Bernard, the Republic became the strongest country on Earth in the second year after Li Xiaodao left.

It is precisely because of this that after the threat of the alien "demon spirit world", China has naturally assumed the responsibility of protecting the earth, and the value of the "General Administration of Earth's Planetary Defense" is reflected here, this department is responsible for the security of the earth, and has the responsibility of providing shelter for all earthlings and resisting foreign hostile forces.

Bernard made it all the way to the end of the passage, and the space in view suddenly increased tenfold.

This is a hall, with illusory electronic screens on all sides, showing the real scenes of various places, especially the several mountain ranges within the land of China, where the five major sects descended from the sky.

In the middle of a screen stood a woman with her back to Bernard, her eyes staring at the screen in front of her, as if thoughtful.

Bernard came behind the woman, hesitated slightly, and then said, "That person is the leader of the Dao Alliance you are talking about, and he seems to have returned. ”

When the woman heard this, she immediately turned around, and then, her heart moved, she looked at Bernard, and her eyes flashed: "Is it really him?" ”

Bernard nodded: "I feel it, it's him!" ”

This woman is none other than Murong Qing, who has dealt with Li Xiaodao several times, and she is now the director of the Planetary Defense Bureau, who holds the highest military power on earth.

Murong Qing was silent for a while, and then said to Bernard: "You wait a minute, I'll let Liu Xuanzhen come over." ”

As she spoke, she directly connected to the electronic screen in one of the rooms of the base, and her image appeared in that room.

…………

Didn't wait long.

There was a man who looked to be in his forties, dressed in ancient Chinese clothes, with long sleeves and long hair on his head, tied up with a wooden hairpin, even though he looked to be in his forties, he was still a very handsome man.

After the man came here, he asked, "Director Murong, what's the important matter for you to come down?" ”

Murong Qing nodded, then looked at Bernard, and then said, "Liu Zhenren, do you remember what you examined for Dr. Bai back then?" ”

Liu Xuan was slightly stunned, then immediately thought of it, and said, "Could it be that the secret technique that that person left on him back then finally worked, but didn't you say that that person has disappeared for seven years now?" ”

After finishing speaking, he paused slightly, and then continued: "Since this is the case, it seems that that person has reappeared, when I was investigating for Dr. Bai, I noticed that he was in a kind of divine soul secret technique, although this secret technique will not threaten life, but it can exist in a form of monitoring, as long as the other party wants to know, what is in Dr. Bai's mind will all be perceived by the other party, when that person planted the secret art, it was a god cultivation, although it was also in the middle stage of the god transformation, but the secret technique was peculiar, Unless he launches it, he can cut off the trajectory below, and it is usually hidden in the depths of Dr. Bai's consciousness, and even under it cannot be completely cleared. ”

The light in Murong Qing's eyes flickered, and he sighed slightly in his heart, the power they had in their hands on cultivation was still too weak.

This person is just a loose cultivator who came along with the Heavenly Outer Sect, and was co-opted by them, but there is no way to completely solve some strange secret techniques.

Murong Qing sighed slightly and said, "Okay, we all know about this matter, and now I asked you to come over to trouble you to make a move, to confirm what information the other party took from Dr. Bai's brain, and those seals you set up, are they still there?" ”

As the founder of artificial intelligence, Bernard has almost mastered most of the secrets of the General Administration of Earth's Planetary Defense, how can he not be cautious, fortunately, after discovering Li Xiaodao's secret technique, he asked this Liu Xuan to seal some confidential intelligence information in Bernard's mind.

Liu Xuan groaned: "This seal was set up below, and I didn't feel any signs of breaking the seal during this time, but since the director asked for it, for the sake of everything, it would be good to check it again." ”

As he spoke, Liu Xuan's eyes were fixed on Bernard, and a mysterious power fluctuation emerged, and his primordial spirit entered the depths of Bernard's consciousness.

He found traces of Bernard's entanglement, but the seal of the classified information was not broken.

After three breaths, Liu Xuan's eyes returned to normal color, and he breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and said, "The seal is still there, which means that that person did not explore the depths of Dr. Bai's consciousness, but only took away the relevant memories on the surface of consciousness." ”

Murong Qing frowned, and immediately asked, "What memories did he take?" ”

Liu Xuan closed his eyes and combed it, and replied: "The entanglement and fluctuation of consciousness in Dr. Bai's mind originated from seven years ago, which means that he started reading from Dr. Bai's memories seven years ago, but he only took the information about some important events......"

Murong Qing listened and muttered in his heart: "He needs to know what has happened in the past seven years from other people's minds, so where has he gone in the past seven years, and has he left the earth." ”

Just when Murong Qing was frowning and didn't know what to do.

Liu Xuan hesitated for a moment, and then said, "What's more, it seems that he specifically extracted relevant information about Shennong Sect in Dr. Bai's memory. ”

Murong Qing's face changed slightly after hearing this, Shennong Sect, but then a trace of pity rose on her face, and she sighed and said: "Shennong Sect kidnapped his disciples and forcibly disbanded the Dao Alliance, it is normal for him to want to understand Shennong Sect, but that day, the five outer sects all have cultivators from the Anti-Void Realm, what can he do?" ”

Liu Xuan was also silent for a moment, he also agreed with Murong Qing's words, and he also sighed: "A person who is not in the early stage of the transformation of gods, even if he has any adventures in the past seven years, it is already the limit to be able to break through to the middle stage of the transformation of gods, and in the face of a giant like Shennong Sect, this person can only swallow this bitter water silently, after all, the two are not at the same level at all." ”

Since the information about the depths of Bernard's mind was not leaked, Murong Qing was also relieved.

Subsequently, it was time to face a series of influences brought about by the return of this Dao Alliance leader.

Murong Qing took a deep breath, and then said to the hall: "Call me up for the monitoring of the Xuanji Sword Sect in Zhonghai City, I remember that there should be a communication device there, let Li Xuanji talk to me, I have something to talk to him." ”

China can now develop to this point, or because of the artificial intelligence brought back by that person in the Atlantic, now they can rely on the deterrence of the "singularity", so that the five sects outside the sky dare not be too presumptuous, and the mechanical army built by artificial intelligence has played a huge role in the battle against the demon world.

It's all because that man brought Bernard back to China.

When such a person disappeared before, they thought he was dead, so they didn't mind the idea of a person who might have died.

But now that the other party is back, Murong Qing has to consider the other party's contribution to the country.

This time, the General Defense Bureau will come forward to reconcile the matter, and at most give the disciples of the Xuanji Sword Sect to Li Xiaodao to come back.

Zhonghai City.

Within the Xuanji Sword Sect.

In the courtyard, a voice suddenly sounded from above the sky.

"Daoist Li Xuanji, our director wants to talk to you, if so, please come to the Earth Defense General Bureau in person, and about the disciples of your sect, we will come forward to reconcile with Shennong Sect."

Hearing this electronic transmission, all seven members of the Xuanji Sword Sect walked out of the room, looking at the sky with complicated expressions.

This voice was played three times in a row, but Li Xiaodao still did not come out of the courtyard.

Murong Qing came to the electronic screen, looked at the courtyard on the screen, and frowned: "We know that you have returned, the matter of the Xuanji Sword Sect, we apologize to you, since you have returned, we will reconsider and properly handle this matter, I hope you can come to the Earth Defense General Bureau, and we will discuss this matter together." ”

Zhang Lingtao was stunned at the moment, he never thought that the female director who was now in the position of high power on the earth would personally summon him.

He looked back at the courtyard, then smiled bitterly and said to the sky, "Director Murong, he has already left. ”

Murong Qing was stunned for a moment, and then a bad feeling appeared in his heart, and asked, "Where did he go?" ”

Zhang Lingtao pointed to the north.

Murong Qing hung up the communication directly, his face changed slightly, and he turned back to the people in the hall: "He went to Shennong Sect!" ”
