159. Crisis
The most intense moment of the night, in the Federation, as long as it is after the "sunset", it is considered the most intense moment of the night.
Now that there are still a few hours before sunset, Xu Zhi plans to hurry up and build a higher-level lantern first.
As last time, the main raw materials of the lantern are the branches and cores of the small aliens, and the level of the lantern is higher, and the "fuel" required is naturally more, so Xu Zhi has created some 10-in-1 [Moth] attribute cores and [lamp] attribute cores.
It's just that under the command of the narrator, she made a few more [cup] attributes.
According to the narrator, the light of the [Cup] is not beneficial to her, and even using the light of the [Cup] at midnight will increase the erosion of the midnight on her, but it is best to use the [Cup] attribute light to confuse the public when entering and exiting the rift.
After all, there is no need to know, there must be a guy with the [cup] attribute squatting at the entrance.
The cores of other attributes were also made by her in case of several [ten to one] refining cores, and after getting the branches of the little alien species, according to the content on the material list, she also needed Xiao Zhen's feathers, dog's teeth, cobwebs, Xu Zhi's blood, and several other extraordinary materials that Xu Zhi did not have.
"But why my blood? What role can it play? ”
[The higher the level of the transcendent item, the more difficult it will be to control, and adding your blood to the forging will increase your affinity with the transcendent item.] 】
[Your spiritual power will affect the ability of this lantern, if it is just a lantern that has nothing to do with you, it is a pure dead thing, the effect of use is fixed, after adding your blood, your own ability will also affect the effect of the lantern. 】
"It's quite unscientific."
Xu Zhi, who did not have extraordinary materials, planned to trouble Zhong Lingfan according to the usual practice, anyway, she didn't know what extraordinary materials were in the warehouse of the base now, although these were her property, she hadn't seen them at all, and she didn't care too much.
The missing materials were basically the bones or body parts of transcendent creatures, and Zhong Lingfan quickly delivered the things to Xu Zhi according to the list.
Zhong Lingfan could have asked his subordinates to send it, but this time he took the time to go to the door to report something to Xu Zhi.
"There are teams from the Federation side that have entered Cloud City one after another, but they can only wander around the periphery, and their extraordinary abilities are really not enough compared to those mutated animals and xenomorphs in Cloud City, but there have been a lot of losses in the past few days."
Of course, whether it is an extraordinary person or other creatures in Cloud City, they are soaked in energy all day long, and it has been more than half a year, and the gap with the Federation has naturally widened.
"I'm thinking about another collaboration with the Federation."
"What?" Xu Zhi looked at her.
Zhong Lingfan didn't directly say the content of the cooperation first, but asked, "Are you going to hide from the other residents that Cloud City can enter and exit now?" ”
Xu Zhi patted his head: "Oh! I forgot about this! ”
She just thought about asking for the leeks of the Ga Federation, and she almost forgot that her own leeks could also take this opportunity to harvest a wave!
Zhong Lingfan's face was a little helpless, she didn't expect Xu Zhi to even forget this matter, how little she cared about the residential area!
"And when are you going to tell them?" Zhong Lingfan asked.
Xu Zhi's tone was casual: "I can do it, you can watch it." ”
Anyway, if you don't tell me, no one will rebel.
"Okay." Zhong Lingfan nodded: "Another cooperation with the Federation needs them. ”
"I call it the Guide Program for the time being, and people who enter Cloud City can book a guide service in advance and pay for the core to get help from the residents in Cloud City."
"After all, they are too unfamiliar with Cloud City now, and it is difficult to even walk in the fog, so they probably need this service extremely much at this moment."
Really.
Whether it's finding a safe place to stay in Cloud City for a long time, or trying to hunt the creatures in Cloud City, it's a bit difficult for the Federation to stay in Cloud City for a long time.
"You really should go into business, right?" Xu Zhi sighed.
And Zhong Lingfan still just smiled: "I'm still far from doing business." ”
"Other than that." Her expression was a little more serious: "Based on what I learned from the laboratory, as well as Lin Zizhen's information, I think there is one thing you must know. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Since the last time the Federation was suddenly shrouded in a blood moon, the cup-attribute believers of the Federation have become strange, and they have been drawing some complex formations all over the Federation, and the speed at which the Federation destroys the formations has not been able to keep up with the speed at which they are crazy to draw, and these formation patterns have never appeared before."
"At present, the Federation can't figure out the specific role of the formation, but this thing will definitely not be a good thing, and the Federation is currently trying its best to speed up the destruction of the formation and the arrest of believers."
"The Federation now has a much lower number of lawbreakers caused by believers, and this group seems to be all addicted to the portrayal of the law."
"It's just that the number of formations that have been discovered is enough, and I'm afraid there are still some hidden in the dark that have not been discovered."
"Not a good sign." Xu Zhi commented on this after listening.
Zhong Lingfan nodded: "Although I don't know what those believers plan to do, if they can complete it, it will be a big event that endangers the entire Federation." ”
"According to the Federation's observations, the strange patterns drawn by these believers all over the Federation have a certain relevance, and once completed, they will envelop the entire Federation."
Zhong Lingfan didn't know, but Xu Zhi obviously knew that it must be an order from him.
What does He want to do?
Is it for His resurrection?
Or is it a higher-level purpose after recovery?
Because there is no archbishop, the Federation can now go all out to arrest believers and destroy the formation, but if the archbishop is still there, the Federation must be anxious to deal with the archbishop at the moment.
"Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and now that the destruction and arrest work is underway, it is almost impossible for believers to complete it."
Unless, the Confederation itself has overstepped and given them a chance.
In this regard, Xu Zhi's attitude is obviously not optimistic.
The incident in Jincheng is a rehearsal, maybe the Federation is the next Jincheng?
"Let someone follow the progress of the event." After all, this matter has something to do with him, and Xu Zhi doesn't intend to sit idly by.
"Okay." Zhong Lingfan nodded, thought for a while, and said, "I arranged for Lin Zizhen to go to the newly established Ministry of Foreign Affairs. ”
Xu Zhi said indifferently: "Feel free, you just look at the arrangement, you don't need to report to me."
After thinking about it, he added: "If he dies one day, you are short of people, and I will go to the Federation to find some." ”
After all, it is necessary to use people who know enough about the Federation to negotiate with the Federation.
Seeing that Xu Zhi's attitude towards Lin Zizhen was not anything special, Zhong Lingfan said: "I thought you chose to bring him back, how much did you think it would be a little different to him?" ”
"Looking the other way?" Xu Zhi was surprised: "How come?" I'm a different person to you. ”
Lin Zizhen is just a tool man who appeared at the right time and knew the current affairs well.
Xu Zhi's tone was quite sincere, obviously telling the truth, in the past, in order to let Zhong Lingfan work hard, she would have somewhat concealed some too cold thoughts, but now that she is sure that there will be no risk of backstabbing, Xu Zhi spoke unscrupulously, revealing more of his true self.
