"Huh?"

Hearing Xu Shi's cold tone say such words, Xia Ke'an was stunned for a moment.

Listen to the little boy...... Is he going to directly find out the "Heavenly Principle" and break it up?

"I said you, isn't your tone a little too big?"

Although it was not good to hit him at this time, out of rational considerations, the white-haired Lori still poured some cold water on him.

She couldn't help but be worried—now they only knew a little bit of "Heavenly Reason" through He Yuxia, and they couldn't draw their entire faces...... Making such a decision at this time, it is difficult not to think that he is careless.

"It's better to be louder than to be timid."

Xu Shi didn't eat her, "Set the goal to the highest at the beginning, even if it is only half completed, it is better than me setting the goal on the surface of my feet and then completing it easily, right, old aunt?" ”

This is very much in line with his usual style, and he has always done this - when he first awakened his memory, his goal was to bring the entire City of Night Sin under his control little by little through Shen He's affairs, rather than simply tearing up the script.

"But ......"

"Don't worry, I'm not acting rashly."

Seeing that Xia Ke'an still had concerns, Xu Shi explained while fiddling with her hairstyle, "How my mother is is only part of it, and the most important thing is that we can't let this sword hang over our heads anymore." ”

Especially now that he is the Emperor of Night Sin City, he can't be indifferent after knowing all this.

My money! （bushi）

"And, according to my estimate, Tianli may also be happy to see this, and may not intervene because I did so."

He went on to explain, "After all, if it was really like He Yuxia said, then I would have disrupted their overall deduction a long time ago, but didn't they take any action? ”

Of course, it is also possible that there is a buffer period...... But no matter what the facts are, he also wants to dig deeper into the "Heavenly Principles", otherwise no matter what achievements he achieves and what heights he reaches, he will be just a guinea pig manipulated by others.

"What do you mean...... Seems to make sense, huh? ”

The old aunt thought about it seriously, but she couldn't refute his statement, "If that's the case...... You can give it a try, of course, and you must try it again when you are fully prepared. ”

"Of course."

While talking, Xu Shi helped her tie a super ugly double ponytail, "Don't you want to stop me anymore?" ”

"I can't help it."

Xia Ke'an said helplessly, "Who let this baby eat yours and use yours?" If you have any ambitions, then I can only support you behind you...... It's ugly! Don't play with my hair! ”

"You're still a little self-aware."

Xu Shi joked and spread her hair back apart for her, "Don't worry, it is indispensable to squeeze your ...... the more unknowns of Tianli, the more indispensable your ability will be." ”

"Cut, I know you can't do without me."

The old aunt was a little proud when she heard this, "Then you say, where do you want me to cut in?" ”

"There's no rush to this."

Xu Shi shook his head, "You haven't used your ability for a long time, and now it's too expensive to use it...... Wait until Shen Qin's self-healing ability is decomposed, and then there should be no worries. ”

"Well, listen to you."

Xia Ke'an nodded obediently, there was still a little warmth in her heart, she had heard Xia Wuwu say something about the double ability, and at that time she had thought about whether she could be the first person to eat crabs and completely suppress the complications of the ability in this way.

But it's not good to take the initiative to ask, you can't grab Xu Shi's collar and ask if you can give me the ability, right? To be honest, she felt that she had inherited too much affection from this little boy, and she couldn't say such things.

But I didn't expect that the first thing people considered was her, and it felt good to be cared for and valued.

"But I can tell you about the plan first."

Xu Shi smiled, "When He Yuxia talked about 'Overseer' just now, she used 'we' instead of 'I', which is enough to prove that Night Sin City is by no means the only place they pay attention to. ”

"Including the stronghold of "Tianli", it is not in this city, and we have developed it hundreds of meters underground, and we have not found any clues...... I'm afraid, we need to get out there and explore further afield. ”

“…… Like what? ”

"For example...... The other side of the sea. ”

Xu Shi thought for a moment and said, "The depths of the Birch Gold Plain used to be the place of the 'Forsaken', and I'm afraid that 'Heavenly Principle' will not be in that direction...... All that is left for us is the vast sea. ”

“…… Well. ”

Xia Ke'an was stunned for a long time before nodding blankly, "You, you really dare to think about it, to be honest, I never thought about it, there will be other lands or cities on the other side of the sea......

She seemed to be in a trance, and it was clear that Xu Shi's words shocked her more than anything else.

“…… It's just a guess. ”

Xu Shi felt strange when he saw this, but he also reacted after a while, the old aunt is probably not an exception, and anyone in this city will probably react similarly when he hears the words.

Because it shatters the long-held notion that it could be hundreds or even thousands of years? It has long been a mindset that people have never thought that there is a wider world outside of the City of Night Sin, and the sea heavily polluted by rusty fog has become the best roadblock.

Even he himself is no exception, if he hadn't awakened his memory, I'm afraid he wouldn't have thought of this so smoothly, at least for more than twenty years before, wasn't he just as muddy as everyone else?

However, this also made him more firm in his conjecture, a completely isolated area, isn't that Truman's world? If you don't try to explore outward, you can only be trapped here for the rest of your life, and it's just a test field to put it mildly......

No one wants to be a leek in the test field, at least after learning these truths, Xu Shi doesn't want to at all.

This is where the resentment in his heart lies.

As for Xia Ke'an, she was still immersed in the shock brought by Xu Shi, but she slowly came back to her senses.

How so...... Xu Shi seems to be such a person, right? It always feels that he can easily do things that everyone can't do, at least half a year ago, she would not have thought that the other party could complete the control of the entire Night Sin City in such a short time.

Now these remarks that make people suddenly enlighten are also ...... To be reasonable, she is actually one of the people who hates "Tianli" the most, but that accident has long made her suffer from gains and losses, and she dare not let go of many things.

But if there is this little boy together, it seems that it will be okay again.

Having said that, she showed a coquettish resentment, "No, no, I feel like I can't always stay with you." ”

"Huh?" Xu Shi raised his eyebrows.

"I'm about to become a stupid person who can't think about anything, and I always feel like I could have figured out these things."

The old aunt said stiffly, "You hurt me, did you secretly use your ability on me?" ”

"Almost."

Xu Shi didn't have a good breath, "I haven't seen you think of this in the past twenty or thirty years, and now blame me?" ”

"Then I don't care, that's how it turned out anyway."

The white-haired Lori snorted, "From today on, Xiao Ke'an announced that he would break away from Brother Xu Shi and spread his wings and fly by himself!" ”

As soon as the words fell, she stretched her waist and was about to jump out of the other party's arms.

But in less than five seconds, she retracted her movements and curled back.

"Forget it, you're going to squeeze me later...... Collect some interest from you first. ”

Xia Ke'an lay down in his arms, "It's too cheap to leave now, don't move, let me take a nap first." ”

“…… Ah, yes, yes, yes. ”

Xu Shi couldn't cry or laugh, did it start? It's over!

Hey, is this the mother の friend?

……

After experiencing He Yuxia's turmoil, to say that there is no psychological fluctuation at all for a while, it is absolutely false.

But this is a very positive psychological fluctuation, and even the emergence of "Tianli" gave him renewed motivation, and sure enough, it is really a fantasy to want to lie flat at the age of twenty-five.

And if you think about it carefully, if it is developed according to the original book, after Shen He defeats himself, I'm afraid he will also follow this direction, right? Otherwise, He Yuxia's appearance and showdown would be meaningless......

Tut-tut, why did you still live in his shape? (Sad)

However, compared with the sad spring and sad autumn, he was more surprised that Xie Qingyan came to the door early the next morning.

The dog woman is for it, and it is naturally a matter of "heavenly reason".

"I don't know what you think, but according to my estimates, those ■■...... The little villains hiding in this city will only be a small part. ”

She even got straight to the point, and she could see that this incident had a big impact on her, "To find them, we're probably going to need to do something crazy." ”

Of course, she is still just as cute when she scolds people.

"For example?"

Xu Shi began to play dumb.

"For example...... Try to go to sea, this is something that no one has thought about for hundreds of years. ”

Xie Qingyan said seriously, "There must be other places on the other side of the sea, maybe this group of people is hiding there." ”

"Oh."

Xu Shi nodded, revealing an expression of "So you also found out".

“…… Did you already know? ”

The dog woman knew him quite well, and knew everything when she saw his dead face, "Don't waste time if you know...... What is your attitude towards this matter? ”

"What's your attitude?"

"You can't see my attitude?"

Xie Qingyan was a little anxious, "First of all, I don't want to be used as a pawn by 'Tianli', and secondly, the skills mastered by these people are very valuable to everyone. ”

This is true, from the past, you can see a lot of things from the small, such as the ability to easily destroy everything, or a flawless clone like He Yuxia...... That's enough to make people feel intimidated and excited at the same time.

"Coincidentally, your attitude is also mine."

Xu Shi smiled when he heard this, "So we need to cooperate in this matter, if you don't look for me, I will also go to you." ”

To tell the truth, his attitude towards Xie Qingyan has always been appreciative, and even more so after hearing that she has almost the same thoughts as himself today - or is this the big villain boss in the original book? Although Xia Ke'an's appearance was very cute when he couldn't turn a corner for a while, Xie Qingyan, who was slightly the same as what he saw, also made him feel happy.

So the old aunt really became stupid under her own influence, didn't she...... Forget it, the requirements for a ten-year-old girl really can't be too high. （doge）

And one thing to say, the dog woman has been a lot more well-behaved recently, and she will no longer make small moves in secret, and she will disagree with him for a while, which makes him even more pleased.

"So, without further ado?"

It's rare for Xie Qingyan not to quarrel with him, no one can do this without him - "Prism" needs the industrial technology of "Snake Ring", and their biotechnology is also indispensable.

"Okay."

Xu Shi nodded, and his expression gradually became serious, "The equipment "Snake Ring" that goes to sea will be in charge, and I will send someone to contact the city hall and the Maritime Safety Bureau to get a seawater sample for analysis." ”

The main reason why no one is willing to go to sea these days is because of the problem of vehicles - the sea water severely eroded by the "rusty fog" has long been beyond the control of wooden and iron ships, and more special materials are needed.

It's just that the return on investment is not high, so whether it is a "snake ring" or a "shark tooth", they are not interested in related projects.

"Then please, as for the screening of personnel going to sea, as well as the allocation of drug supplies, we will do it."

Xie Qingyan completely agreed, and each performed his duties...... I have to say that as long as the opinions are unanimous and there is no intrigue, the conversation between the two is unexpectedly smooth.

"If only we had done the same before."

So Xu Shi couldn't help but sigh.

But having said that, he also knew that the dog woman was hiding something from him, "By the way, if I'm not mistaken, you should have developed a special version of "Ascension"? ”

This is mainly from what he found out when he arrested He Yuxia before, you must know that the other party's ability to escape is not weak, if it only stays at the level of contact to neutralize the ability, how can it be so easy to be caught by Xie Qingyan?

Ye Shanshan may not be able to count on it, her ability is more inclined to concealment than tracking like Su Lin.

The only possibility is that Xie Qingyan's ability has also been improved, and she can carry out domain-based ability blockade, and if she wants to do this in a short period of time, she must have made something similar to "Yujing" like herself.

“…… Aang, what's wrong? ”

The dog woman rolled her eyes, apparently upset that the little secret was perceived.

"Not much, just talk about it, what are you anxious about?"

Xu Shi laughed, "Then you might as well share it?" I have similar technology here, so since we're going to work together, I'd be a little more honest. ”

"Even if it is used on a small scale, it can improve our overall strength."

This is true, it is indeed difficult to promote the blessing of specialized abilities on a large scale, for example, for example, this time you have to bring a hundred people to the sea, of course, you can't do one, and even if you can, it will take too long.

But there are still important roles, and taking Xie Qingyan or himself as an example, the ability to take effect when touched and the ability to turn into a halo are not at the same level at all.

“…… Okay, let's rebuild the team for R&D. ”

Xie Qingyan spread his hands, "I don't know who is not honest, saying that the second phase of the project is led by us, and I am still making small moves behind my back." ”

"Each other."

Xu Shi shrugged indifferently, "I still have a lot of material here, do you want to hear it?" ”

"Oh?"

"Ever thought that a person can have two abilities at the same time?"
