Wake up early, dark clouds obscure the sky, drifting everywhere with the wind, wandering in the gray space.

Shang Tao, who was dressed in a black dress, stood in the middle of a group of people in military uniforms, looking a little abrupt.

They watched as boxes of urns covered with black cloth were being sent away.

This is the ashes of the war dead at the suburban base.

There was no grand funeral, no memorial service, they were simply burned to ashes and sent back to their respective hometowns.

They are all secret units under the Internal Guard, and they are not even numbered externally.

When he died in battle, he went home silently.

However, their families can enjoy the highest standard of treatment for the families of martyrs.

This is already the second day of the incident at the base.

When Shang Tao took Sun Sihui out of that place, it was already two days later.

From the time he entered to the time he came out, he was delayed in the fog for about ten days, and only two days after he came out.

In other words, the speed of time in the two places is about five times different.

In the past two days, too many things have happened across the country and even the world.

Zhang Zhonglin's defection incident stirred up a thousand waves with one stone, and it shook not only at home, but also internationally.

Yes, this news is spreading around the world at a breakneck speed.

The Intelligence Analysis Office believes that this is very likely to be a rumor deliberately released by Zhang Zhonglin himself.

One is to muddy the waters, and the other is to seek more collaborators to fight the impending encirclement and interception.

The highest level of the state has already issued a death order, and Zhang Zhonglin must be arrested and brought to justice, and if he cannot be caught alive, he must not be allowed to fall into the hands of hostile forces.

The existence of the Ghost King Bead is estimated to be unknown to foreign forces, which is good news and can give the country more time to react.

But then came the bad news, when Zhang Zhonglin defected, he not only snatched the Ghost King Bead, but also took away a very important research result.

Reiko virus, a deadly virus that can react to Reiko's energy.

When Shang Tao heard the news, he smiled, he was not surprised by the appearance of the Lingzi virus.

Shi Ao, the capable person who was used by thousands of faces in a single apartment building and sacrificed hundreds of people, isn't his ability this virus.

It's just that Shi Ao's ability can only control a few people, and it's not so deadly.

Now it seems that after catching Shi Ao, someone really extracted and studied this thing.

Not only did it be studied, but it also came out of it.

Now it seems that it is Zhang Zhonglin who is leading this research.

And now, with the results of his research, he has defected.

In the eyes of some of the people above, this terrifying virus is much more important than the Ghost King Bead.

The Ghost King Bead may be able to help human science and technology go further, but the deadly virus can directly kill the big guys.

The comparison results are clear at a glance.

Therefore, the order to launch an all-out pursuit of Zhang Zhonglin was more because of the Lingzi virus than the Ghost King Zhu.

In Shang Tao's opinion, this is putting the cart before the horse, and there are some virus samples left in his soul space.

This kind of thing can indeed have a controlling effect on the spiritual energy in the body, but that's all.

The idea of the people who study this virus is very good, the spirit child is everywhere, and the human beings in the future, even if they are not capable people, will more or less contain some spirit children in their bodies.

As long as you master this virus that can control the spirit child, you will simply control the fate of all mankind.

But in Shang Tao's view, this is wishful thinking.

There have been so many deadly viruses in human history, and there are no people who have mastered those viruses to control all of humanity.

Now the same is true for this spirit sub virus, as long as it is strong enough, it can directly decompose this kind of thing.

And the Ghost King Bead is a strategic weapon in the true sense.

Some big people may not realize the real danger of the ghost clan, and think that it is a disease of ringworm and scabies.

But panic has begun to emerge in society.

Because of the frequent events recently, public opinion on the Internet can no longer be controlled.

The government also knew that there was no way to continue to conceal it, so it could only do its best to guide public opinion.

But even so, it still caused a certain amount of social panic, and all kinds of remarks began to appear all over the Internet.

The information on the Internet was not suppressed, and everyone realized that ghost incidents were not only around them, but all over the world.

The legends of ghosts and monsters in various places, combined with the current chaos, made people confused for a while.

Fortunately, the government's previous vigorous propaganda of the existence of capable people distracted some of the attention.

He also gradually made public some of the recent achievements of various 'black technologies' to enhance the confidence of the people and tell everyone that the alien species of ghosts and monsters are completely under the control of the government.

At the same time, the government also severely cracked down on all ghosts, snakes, and gods who took advantage of the fire to rob and make trouble, which gradually stabilized the social situation.

This kind of method of maintaining stability is known to everyone as it is only a temporary method.

If the fundamental problem is not solved, it will only become more and more chaotic.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is in a mess because of recent events, and the leadership is in a hurry.

Because of the base incident, the top management has realized the importance of capable people and has begun to carry out a nationwide screening of capable people.

Originally, screening was voluntary, and those who were able to do so could choose not to work for the government.

And now the attitude of the government has changed 180 degrees, although it has not been announced to the public, but after discovering the powerful ability, the ability has no choice, and will be forced to work for the government.

At this time, it is no longer a question of whether human rights are human rights or not.

In fact, it has basically entered a semi-military state now, that is, everything has to serve the upcoming war.

War, not only humans and ghosts, but also humans and humans.

Human society on the Blue Star has always been complex and changeable, and in the thousands of years of human history, no matter how big the threat of foreign enemies, has never really worked together.

Compared to the ghosts, many people are more concerned about the threat of the same kind.

The most obvious is a certain island country on the edge of China.

In the past, due to historical reasons, it was kept in captivity by the first big country of Blue Star, and the surrounding forces stared at it and never dared to mess around.

And now it's chaotic, everyone is busy with their own family affairs, and they don't have time to care about it anymore.

Well, a certain island country began to let itself go, and it was a new warship, and it was the beginning of nuclear weapons, in order to deal with the 'evil aliens'.

Traditional weapons are of limited use to ghosts and monsters without physical objects, but there are some countries and forces that take advantage of the chaos to vigorously develop traditional weapons and equipment.

It is simply self-evident who it is used against.

In fact, not all forces want to do this, but if you don't do it, and the hostile forces are making weapons with great fanfare, how can you guarantee that people will not stab you at a critical moment.

In view of the shameless history of a certain island country, some surrounding countries have no choice but to start making weapons.

When other national forces saw it, they would definitely not be able to sit still and began to build weapons.

In this way, a new round of the arms race around the world began.

In fact, many big leaders in China do not want to see this kind of situation, but the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, and no matter how unwilling they are, they can only participate in it.

Perhaps only the emergence of a powerful force or figure that can allow the various forces to sit down and talk openly and honestly can put an end to this abnormal competition of mutual suspicion.

However, this is just the fantasy of many people, such a force must first have a strong power to suppress the all-blue star.

And this kind of power, that is, the current superpower, does not have it, let alone others.

The world situation was turbulent, but Shang Tao was relaxed.

rescued Sun Sihui, and he didn't have anything important in his hands.

He can't get the Ghost King Bead back for the time being.

If you want to get back the Ghost King Pearl, you have to track Zhang Zhonglin's whereabouts first, which is the matter of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and other intelligence departments.

As for the research work, because of the many new ideas brought back by Sun Sihui, the institute is fully engaged in related work.

And for those studies of quantum mechanics, Shang Tao can't help much.

So he simply hid in the apartment and studied the soul space.

He was in that holy place, but he had gained a lot of soul energy, which was enough to upgrade his residency and rune skills.
