Kingdom of Heaven, Unknowable Land.

2nd Floor· [Yatsra], known as the "world of formation," in which the radiance of the Supreme One is further revealed through angels and spiritual entities.

A huge rainbow bridge suddenly appeared in the sky, and it descended vertically from the sky, like a huge passage connecting heaven and earth.

Knock Knock Knock –

A transport plane leaps gracefully down this rainbow bridge.

Soon, it was firmly anchored on a tarmac above Yatsra.

As the hatch opened, the Fourth Celestial Sword-wielder stepped out of the plane.

His steps were light, and his handsome expression looked very pleasant.

This kind of expression is like a student who has come to the holidays, a migrant worker who gets off work in a company, and an old man who has a good harvest......

With a happy mood, Xia Xiu looked back at the plane, nodded to the two staff members who accompanied him to complete the handover work, and politely thanked them.

The two angels immediately nodded respectfully in return.

In a brief interaction, the hatch slowly closes, and the transport plane starts up again, slowly rising along the rainbow bridge and leaving [Yatzla].

In the process of leaving, the trajectory of the plane is particularly spectacular against the backdrop of the rainbow bridge.

The blond-haired and golden-eyed young man stood on the tarmac, watching the plane depart, until it completely disappeared at the end of the Rainbow Bridge, when he turned and looked into the sky.

Above [Yatzra], an illusory and huge Doomsday Bell hangs in the vast sky, and its presence has become almost the most conspicuous symbol of this strange space.

Not only is the clock huge, but it also seems to contain some mysterious power, so that everyone who looks up can clearly see the countdown to the end of the world.

Xia Xiu's gaze passed through the ethereal clouds and froze on the Doomsday Bell suspended in the sky.

——[Doomsday Bell]——

Minutes remaining: 1:30

Current time: 23:58:30

Weight Adjustment (min):-

——————————

At this moment, the hands of the clock show 23:58:30, which means that there is still a short minute and a half before "midnight".

The fact that the hands have moved half a minute away from midnight is a positive sign that the threat of disaster has eased despite the ongoing crisis.

"Working overtime has finally pushed the crisis that destroyed the world forward......

The worker looked at the weight adjustment above, and gently exhaled a long breath, which was a sigh of release, but he contributed his own to the performance of the above-.

"You look like one of those students who have just come out of the two houses."

Just as Xia Xiu looked at the [Bell of Doom] to express his inner sigh, a familiar voice came from his ears, so he glanced casually in the direction of the sound.

Under the vast sky of Yatzra, I saw a cool old man riding a balance bike, driving towards him in a relaxed and confident manner.

This cool old man wears a black suit, and there is a rare taste and style in his clothes, and the balance bike is steady and elegant under his control.

Soon, the old man stopped his balance bike in front of the fourth sword-wielder in Heaven in a "drifting" position.

"President Felden, you're always fashionable." Xia Xiu said to the cool old man in front of him with a warm smile on his face.

That's right, the cool old man walking around [the Unknown's Land] on a balance bike is none other than Robert Felden, one of the six core organizations, the chairman of the Ethics Committee.

Felden drove the balance bike firmly in front of Xia Xiu and stopped, his movements smooth and natural.

After the car came to a complete stop, he gently kicked a specific part of the balance bike with his toes. With a slight but clear "pop" sound, the mechanical structure on the balance bike began to change wonderfully.

The streamlined body shrinks and the mechanical parts are stacked and folded with astonishing precision, creating a delicate deformation show. In the process, the size of the balance bike rapidly shrinks and eventually becomes a small capsule shape.

At the moment when the capsule was formed, it deftly catapulted into Felden's hand.

Xia Xiu looked at this scene, and his eyes couldn't help but show a trace of deep interest

"This is the capsule technology of the Addison Federation." He looked at the Mayflower Foundation mark on the capsule and replied to Felden.

"Yes, since announcing the semi-anisomorphism, they have been in full swing for the development of civilian technology, and financial institutions led by the Mayflower Foundation have continued to provide a large number of extraordinary loans to the outside world to support the dual promotion of private technology and extraordinary technology. Now it can be said that the Addison Federation has completed the second impact on the Veil system, and it has only been more than three months since the first impact. ”

Felden casually threw the capsule in his hand into the hands of the fourth sword-wielder in the kingdom of heaven, and motioned with his eyes for the other party to come with him.

Xia Xiu took the capsule thrown by Felden and played with it carefully in his hand.

As the [Fire Stealer] who stole the authority of the God of All Machines, he naturally easily finished dissecting the mechanical structure on the capsule, which is a mechanical folding technique born out of the Church of Machines.

"During your time in the field, the Kingdom of Heaven has sent me and the Gardener's representatives to attend meetings of the Addison Federation. As for Addisi's civilian behavior, the gardener and I have maintained a silent attitude, which makes many angels in the kingdom of heaven quite dissatisfied, because our silence means that Addisi's impact on the Veil system is correct. ”

As he walked, President Felden chatted with Natsusuke about his work during the other party's absence, and this cool old man, like him, was also a social animal who faced a job of chicken feathers.

"Gardener...... 0-02. Xia Xiu thought to himself in his heart.

Each member of the resolution assembly actually has a corresponding code name, such as the current leader of the Authority, Xia Xiu's direct boss 0-03 - Ponte Bergamos.

His code names include "Philosophical Scientist", "All-Seeing One", and "Apocalypse Deterrent Initiator".

O-10, who became a member of the Resolution Assembly and was once a hero of the Order, hence his code names such as "Veteran" and "Mad General".

0-07, who formed a political alliance with 0-10, came from the central containment chamber, so his code name is very simple, and his code name is only "Professor".

Xia Xiu was not surprised to hear that 0-02 was silent about the extraordinary civilian advancement of the Addison Federation.

This is because the theme of the Gardener's decision supports the study of all paranormal and anomalous objects.

Despite the wavering attitude of the dominant factions within the Kingdom of Heaven towards containment and research, she stood her ground.

The subject matter of the resolution and the Heavenly Kingdom Project in her hands have led to cross-testing of multiple anomalous objects within the spectrum for rational research.

A higher-level classification of anomalous items has been implemented.

She is a strong proponent of practical research that can benefit humanity to the greatest extent possible in the long run.

It is hoped that the deconstruction of the anomaly will complete the high-level technological explosion, and force the entire Terra's transcendent form to complete a new cognitive reform and intellectual revolution for the entire human race with comprehensive and absolutely advanced extraordinary productivity.

"This is going to use Addison as a theoretical pilot...... In this way, she wants to seek re-election in the next term. ”

Xia Xiu soon knew that the purpose of the old man Felden chatting with him was to reveal the news to him.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the cool old man beside him, while the other party continued along the topic on his own.

"If nothing else, after the end of the year, the Kingdom of Heaven will begin to officially enter the competition for candidates. Every high-ranking angel who wants to serve as a member of the new council must report to Eden, and then complete the first round of think tank primaries, which is the merit comparison. Eden will publicize the results of the comparison, and in the first round, the angels whose merits are compared to the bottom 5% of the list will be eliminated. ”

Felden said, looking meaningfully at the fourth sword-wielder in the Heavenly Kingdom beside him, and the other party smiled brightly in return.

Obviously, Xia Xiu is bound to participate in the candidate competition next year.

He is here today to complete the rank promotion and at the same time to file a candidacy.

For the first round of think tank primaries, he is absolutely confident that he will pass.

Just kidding, he has been away for a long time during this time, and he has worked tirelessly.

From sacrificing to the evil gods of outer space, to blasting the Inner World anomaly, and blowing up Ganymede in the middle.

The work is done at this point, and he just wants to say: Who else!

"It seems that the length of the candidates for the next term may fluctuate."

Xia Xiu continued with a sigh, "Those seeking re-election, new contenders, and new and old factions in the lineage ......, it seems that the Heavenly Congress will be more lively in the next time. ”

"According to the tradition of the kingdom of heaven, sword-bearers generally do not participate in the election of candidates, and the genealogy of the kingdom of heaven needs to select those who can entrust power, not those who already have power." Elder Felden said this with a serious face.

“0-13？” Xia Xiu mentioned it casually.

Felden was stunned for a moment, and then after reacting, his face suddenly darkened.

According to his words, the people who can entrust the power include 0-13, but the other party is corrupted by the four monarchs and the red king, and incarnates into a beast with one-third of the glory of the heavenly kingdom.

Felden couldn't help but glared at the sneering golden retriever, and said this viciously.

"This is the failure of the oversight bodies within the spectrum, the failure of most of the angels, including the ethics committee, the inquisition, and the burial authorities!

The corruption of chaos is watching us greedily all the time, and if we relax a little, the exalted sage will become a beast of calamity in an instant, and it is indeed our fault that we fail to sound the alarm before temptation appears. ”

Felden suddenly stared at the Fourth Sword Bearer of Heaven with great seriousness.

"In order to prevent a potential internal corruption crisis, this year's candidate selection phase has also added a link, and all candidates will need to face a new primary round. All competitors will need to go to the fourth level of [Unknown Lands], which is the outermost circle of [Azlut], where they will meet with Eden and the Supreme Procedure and complete a heavenly selection process - they will check all the angels for fifty years. ”

Fifty years back?

Xia Xiu's footsteps suddenly stopped.

For Eden and the Supreme Program, there is actually no difference between looking back for fifty years and checking back for one year, as long as they are combined to check an angel together, even if it is just an hour of his past, you can know the background of the other party.

So, how long to check back is not critical, the key is the joint review of Eden and Supreme procedures.

At this moment, at the same time that the fourth sword-wielder in the Kingdom of Heaven suddenly stopped, Felden also stopped.

He stood in front of the fourth sword-wielder in the kingdom of heaven, his eyes full of meaningful light.

Felden's eyes slowly scanned the other, his gaze as if trying to get into the inner world of the sword-wielder who had suddenly stopped.

His eyes shimmer with a deep insight, as if he can see through the surface of people, touching those secrets and emotions hidden in the depths.

However, the performance of the fourth sword-wielder in the kingdom of heaven made him a little incomprehensible.

There wasn't much change in expression on the other person's face, but from his slightly raised eyebrows and the gently pursed corners of his mouth, you could feel that his mind was active and he was in some kind of contemplation.

What kind of expression is that?

If I had to describe it, it would be a relief and enlightenment.

"It's good to check back fifty years, I see that there are already some rumors in the pedigree because of the defection of 0-13, and there are also a lot of rumors in the internal forum. They are probably not very relieved about me, an angel from the earthly world, and now Eden and the Supreme Procedure have been checked for fifty years, which just happens to be able to stabilize internal public opinion. Xia Xiu's face was soon filled with a smile again.

He also understood that Felden, the cool old man, accompanied him all the way to the street, in addition to exchanging the latest situation and information in the pedigree.

I just want to see here whether I, the fourth sword-wielder of the heavenly kingdom from the earthly world, can deal with the Eden and Supreme procedures for fifty years.

This old guy's map of Yan Country is so long, he just wants to delay it until he has passed the review before he is willing to rest assured, so he will share more information and resources with him.

"President Felden, I just happened to go to the [Holy Ark] where the first layer [Asyya] was stored to complete the rank promotion of the High Angels, and after completing the promotion, I should immediately go to the fourth level to meet Eden and the Supreme Procedure, do you want to come with me?" Xia Xiu asked knowingly.

"When we're done, we can just have a drink." He then added.

"Yes, it just so happens that I haven't been to the Unknown Land for a while, old man, so I can just exercise. I've been working as a clerk on the side of the Addison Federation, dealing with a lot of paperwork to assist gardeners, and I finally went back to the Unknown Land today to report on my work, and I happened to be walking around, and as a comrade, I really don't seem to have sat down with you for a drink, which is a shame. ”

The old man Felden also followed Xia Xiu with a serious face.

The two foxes, one old and one young, smiled at each other tacitly.
