Early the next morning.

When Chen Jing got up from the bed with a yawn, the scorching sun was already high in the air.

Through the half-open windows.

Chen Jing could see Bai Aji hovering over Sentinel Ridge, and Qiao Youning standing in the courtyard drying mushrooms with a round dustpan.

Chen Jing tasted those mushrooms last night.

All of them are specialties brought from the temple.

They look like little people, and when they are thrown into boiling water, they let out a terrible scream, and the mushroom soup is as red as blood.

It doesn't look good, but it tastes good.

At least this is the best mushroom Chen Jing has ever tasted.

According to Qiao Youning, this is a delicacy that can only be enjoyed by old descendants or polluted species, if it is eaten by ordinary people......

"All the organs in my stomach will rot, and mycelium will grow in my brain."

Hearing this chilling introduction, Chen Jing didn't feel scared, but understood some people who like to eat puffer fish.

Because it's so delicious!

The sheer deliciousness is incomprehensible, as if even the soul is soothed by it...... Of course, Chen Jing did not rule out that this was a symptom of eating fungus poisoning.

"Are you awake?"

Qiao Youning had her back to Chen Jing from beginning to end, but even if she didn't look back, she could still keenly sense the other party's gaze.

"Are you going to dry all these mushrooms?" Chen Jing yawned against the window, feeling that he had slept really comfortably, and as soon as he closed his eyes and opened his eyes, it was dawn.

"Hmmm! After drying, it will be fresher when used to make soup! ”

Qiao Youning turned around, her fair face was flushed, her sleeves were rolled up high, and she looked like she was working.

"You go wash up first! I'll make you breakfast! ”

"It's all here, it's almost ...... for lunch," Chen Jing said with a smile, "Li Mobai sent me a message just now, let's go to the United States, the radar he used to search for Raphael is on the rooftop of the Union Building." ”

Hearing Chen Jing say this, Qiao Youning had a trace of confusion on her face, but she didn't ask anything, just urged him to wash up and prepare for dinner.

In fact, Chen Jing could see the doubt in Qiao Youning's eyes, because he himself felt a little bit like this...... With Li Mobai's character, if he wants to arrange any radar to search for moonlight, he will definitely give priority to those low-key and hidden places, such as the steamship at the headquarters of the association.

At the very least, he wouldn't choose the well-known Union Building.

The place that once gathered the top power of the world.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't match Li Mobai.

Meal.

Chen Jing and Qiao Youning both changed into light clothes, and went straight to the beauty by Bai Aji.

"Go to that kind of place...... Shouldn't we dress up seriously......" Qiao Youning glanced at the cartoon starfish logo on the chest of Chen Jing's hooded sweatshirt, and then looked at the bag of potato chips he was holding in his arms...... Well, it does look like you're going to an amusement park.

"I'm serious." Chen Jing smiled and took a piece of potato chips from Qiao Youning's arms and threw it into his mouth, every word was said seriously, not like a joke at all, "I don't have formal clothes, just this one is okay, you see how serious this starfish is with a broken face." ”

“…… It seems to be. ”

Meanwhile.

Union Building in the beauty of the world.

The rooftop was already full of people.

Li Mobai sat on the edge of the roof in an extremely dangerous posture, not afraid of the oncoming wind, and slowly smoked the cigarette in his mouth.

Behind him.

Standing were dozens of candidates dressed in Fang Shi Taoist robes.

Bixuan is one of them.

After them.

Standing were all ordinary humans.

Of course, this so-called ordinary is only from the perspective of candidates, if most people in human society look at it, these old people or middle-aged people in suits and leather shoes are not ordinary at all, and even many people can only see them on TV all their lives.

"The Aether Association, the Dawning Foundation, and your ......" Li Mobai glanced back, the smile on his face was meaningful, "For the sake of the overall interests of mankind, it is time to discuss a result today." ”

All those present heard his words.

But no one responded.

Except for those bio-modified cyber fonders with expressionless faces, the rest ...... The expression can be said to be very exciting.

Because they all know what to expect today.

There will be a meeting here.

There will be a transfer of power at the top.

There will be ......

The beginning of a new era.

"I know that some of you are about to scold me to death in your hearts, and you can't wait to pull out my eight generations of ancestors and cut them with a thousand knives, but I think it's okay if you scold in your hearts, I'm a small-minded person who can't listen to others say bad things about me......"

"Li Mobai."

A middle-aged man wearing glasses walked out of the crowd, holding back the anger in his eyes and not daring to show it too obviously.

"That's not what you promised us in the first place......"

"Oh, I'm going to lie to you, have fun, have fun." Li Mobai couldn't help laughing, "Besides, for you 'experts', isn't lying commonplace?" ”

"Do you know what we stand for?" The other person spoke in a heavy tone.

"You represent a time of ignorance and depravity."

Li Mobai stretched, stood up and walked along the edge of the rooftop, not afraid of being blown down by the sudden wind.

"We represent the beginning of a new era."

"You!"

"I know there are a bunch of the same kind standing behind you, and there are hot weapons that you regard as hole cards, but behind my back, there are ninety percent of the candidates who support you!" Li Mobai grinned, "You should know what this means, right?" ”

“……”

"Don't mess with me, don't take chances."

Li Mobai squatted down with a cigarette in his mouth, even in front of these human beings who held power and could arbitrarily affect the world pattern, he was still cynical.

"I've drained all of your hole cards, and if you still want to play, I guarantee you'll die an ugly death."

As he spoke, Li Mobai seemed to sense something, and suddenly looked back at the sky.

There's an inconspicuous black dot there.

It's moving rapidly toward the Union Building.

"I remember a senior once said to me, let me not be too desperate in my work, and have a sense of reverence for power, and this sentence can actually be used for you."

Li Mobai smiled and beckoned to the black dot that was getting bigger, and said without looking back.

"Humans are beasts, just dressed up as civilization, so I hope you can look at our relationship from the perspective of the food chain, at least you should have a minimum ...... for us 'new humans'"

"Awe."
