Chapter 40: The Demon Spirit Guide's Pilot Plan II
Hou Renze glanced at Kang Long. A pair of piercing eyes were opposite a pair of cloudy and dim eyes. In Hou Renze's purple flickering eyes, there seemed to be two electric rays of light, but they seemed to shoot into the whirlpool, without stirring up the slightest wind and waves.
"What does General Kang mean is that I should transfer people from the academy to assist in the research of the Demon Spirit Guide?"
"No," Kang Long waved his hand, "Dean Hou, I know that the academy is short of manpower right now. I mean, when it's time for the actual combat test, please work with a few senior instructors of the academy to select a group of outstanding students to test and test weapons. It is best to select students from among the current students and recent graduates. ”
Hou Renze glanced at Qiu Bai, then at Long Yao, and did not answer immediately. Qiu Bai's gaze always fell on Kang Long, and there were several emotions in his eyes.
In the compartment, Ye Hengyuan and Lei Xi pricked up their ears at the same time.
"Senior Sister Lei," Ye Hengyuan said, "My master once said...... It will take a long time for the Demon Spirit Guide to be developed into a weapon...... How...... ...... now"
"I don't know," Lei Xi shook his head, "The research and development process of the Demon Spirit Guide has always been a state secret, and only a few people know the whole process. General Conlong was one of these men. ”
Leng Han still looked indifferent, and glanced at Long Lin's side face.
"General Kang has a point," Long Yao nodded, "As long as the remaining few problems are solved, the Demon Spirit Guide will soon begin to develop rapidly." It will no longer be just the preserve of the upper class, but belong to every human being on the Cangling Continent. Although it is only a foreign object, it can make up for the shortcomings of man's own strength, and it is also a gospel for the benefit of the common people. Cangling students are one of the highest schools of spiritual masters in our country, and they are also one of the best spiritual master colleges in the whole continent, and in this regard, they must play a good leading role. Dean Hou, you should select a group of outstanding students from the intermediate and senior students as soon as possible. ”
"Yes, Vice Marshal!" Hou Renze got up from his chair and gave a military salute. A loud and piercing "creak" came from under his feet.
Tang Yingjie opened the eyes that had just been closed, and squeezed his eyebrows in the direction of Hou Renze.
"Wouldn't it?" Ye Hengyuan asked, "Do you want us to conduct the experiment?"
"Of course," Long Lin smiled, "Demon spirit weapons are still only in the most basic stage, and naturally they are being tested by beginner and mid-level spirit masters. It is difficult for high-level spirit masters to test its true power. More importantly, the next goal is how to make it democratic, how to make it accessible to ordinary people. ”
"Yes, Xiaoyuan," Lei Xi also smiled, revealing two white teeth, "I also know a little bit about demon spirit guides. When you start experimenting after a while, if there's anything you don't understand, just ask me. ”
"Uh......" Ye Hengyuan turned his head and couldn't help blushing again when he saw Lei Xi's smile, "Thank you, Sister Lei Xi......"
There was a low "hum" from the cold nasal cavity, but the expression on his face did not change in the slightest.
The meeting continued. Long Yao kept asking one question after another, and the five spirits would take turns to answer. Sometimes it's over when you're done, and sometimes it's discussed. After each session, it is immediately time to move on to the next topic without any breaks. The soundproof glass rises and falls with Long Yao's gestures, sometimes up and sometimes down.
Finally, when the hour hand on the huge stone clock hanging on the wall behind the Phnom Penh Taishi's chair turned two squares, the last item was over.
"Alright," Long Yao stood up from the silver-edged Taishi chair.
The other five spirit generals stood up in turn, facing Long Yao, and stood upright. In the compartment, Long Lin and Lei Xi also stood up. Ye Hengyuan was stunned for a moment, and also stood up. Then, Leng Han slowly stood up.
"This is the end of this meeting!"
Long Yao raised his voice and shouted loudly. His voice is like a bell, and he is not inferior to the "fierce god" Chai Ding.
The five spirit generals saluted Long Yao at the same time. Long Yao returned the salute to both sides. The four disciples in the compartment also saluted the spirit generals below.
"Adjournment!"
Long Yao shouted, opened his big hand, and made a virtual grasping motion towards the wall behind him. The secret door reopened. He walked straight inside.
"Quack—" The secret door closed immediately. The dragon-shaped stone statue that had been placed here was turned back again.
None of the five spirit generals immediately moved, but just stopped in place. After a few minutes, Kang Long slowly walked to the protruding part of the other wall and made a false grasping motion. A small dark blue vortex of energy loomed in his palm.
Another secret door opened. In just an instant, he disappeared into the secret passage.
Subsequently, Qiu Bai, Hou Renze, Bai Suxin and Tang Yingjie also opened a secret door in the same way and entered different secret passages. On the opposite side of the dragon-shaped stone statue, that is, behind the chair of the prince in Phnom Penh, a unicorn-shaped stone statue of the same size as the dragon-shaped stone statue shook lightly a few times. The degree of shaking is so slight that the average person can't notice it.
"Alright. ”
Long Lin stood up from his chair and straightened his clothes.
"It's time for us to go, too. Just go back the way you came. ”
"Sister Lei Xi," Ye Hengyuan asked, "this...... Are there all secret passages in the middle of the wall? How many are there? How did you design them?"
"I don't know," Lei Xi smiled and shook his head, "It should be twelve, right?" ”
Leng Han shook his head, got up from his chair, stretched out his hands, pinched his neck hard, and turned to the other three.
"Brother Ye, Senior Sister Lei, Young Master Long, I'll go back first. I would like to ask Master a question. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to the passage where he had come, and walked past step by step.
"Hey, Brother Leng......" Ye Hengyuan shouted.
Leng Han walked forward as if he hadn't heard. Ten seconds later, he disappeared into the aisle.
"What's wrong with Leng Han today?" Long Lin glanced over the passage, "Is it that the mood is not good?" or is it not in good spirits?"
"I can't see it," Ye Hengyuan shook his head, "I guess I might be tired." Otherwise, I just don't understand. ”
"Huh. I'm gone too. ”
Long Lin laughed heartily twice, walked into the passage, and disappeared into the passage.
"Xiaoyuan," Lei Xi said, "you go first." Just follow the path you came from and go back to your training room. The rule of thumb here is that everybody has to go separately. When you're gone, I'll go. ”
"Okay. Thank you, Sister Lei. Ye Hengyuan saluted Lei Xi.
"Oh, don't be so polite," Lei Xi's smile was warm, "Just call me Sister Xi." ”
"Hmm. Goodbye, Sister Xi. ”
Ye Hengyuan lowered his head and walked forward quickly, for fear that Lei Xi would see his blushing face again. He walked back the way he had come, and soon returned to the door where he had entered the passage. With just a push of your hand, the door opened.
He didn't hesitate, and immediately walked up the spiral staircase and ran briskly towards the tenth floor. His steps were fast and heavy, making a "thump" sound on the spiral staircase made of steel.
His brain began to rac, trying to make sense of all the information he heard and digest it all. In the past two hours or so, he and the other three disciples had heard about half of what they had heard, and some of them were incomplete. But even then, the amount of information that needs to be digested and absorbed is quite large for him. There was also a considerable part of it that he had never heard of.
For example, before entering the Mingguang Pavilion, he had never heard of it, let alone knew about it. Originally, in his subconscious, the thunderstorm that destroyed the entire town was already a rather terrifying move. Of course, neither Master nor Dean Hou mentioned much about themselves.
There is also the Demon Guide. Judging from General Kanglong's description, the experiment of the demon spirit weapon is almost complete, and as long as the final series of tests is carried out, mass production can begin and equip the army. This point, whether it is Master, Dean Hou, or all the faculty members in Cangling Academy, they have never mentioned it. Moreover, judging from the demeanor, movements, and tone of voice during the meeting just now, Master and Dean Hou didn't seem to be very interested in General Kanglong, and they also stayed away from Vice Marshal Long Yao.
The most important thing is that Vice Marshal Long Yao said that he will soon be ready to counterattack the Iwakuni. If you have the strength to attack, why has it been only defensive until then?
He shook his head, trying to clear himself up. In less than two minutes, he was back on the tenth floor.
"Xiaoyuan," Qiu Bai's voice came from the lounge, "come to the lounge on the right." ”
Ye Hengyuan walked directly to the room on the right. As soon as he stood in front of the door, the dark green lines on the door immediately turned dark green, and flashed several times in a row. With a "creak", the door opened. He slowed down, lightened his pace, and walked in gently.
"Master. ”
Qiu Bai had already changed out of his meeting uniform and put on his cyan robe again. He sat on a chair next to the round table, a cup of tea in his hand. On the round table, there was an identical teacup with dark green tea inside.
"Sit, Xiaoyuan. Drink some tea first. You haven't been drinking any water, you must be thirsty. ”
"Hmm. Ye Hengyuan nodded obediently, walked to the chair opposite the round table, sat down, picked up the teacup, and slowly took two sips. This tea has just been brewed, and it is still a little hot, and it is very bitter, as if it has been left for a long time.
"How do you listen, how much do you think you can understand?"
