Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 260: Choose to become a Xiahui leader (6000)

Terra 775, January 16.

The New Year’s holiday has passed, but it’s better to say that this era is not too used to the so-called seven-day holiday. People don’t have to work but are idle. Maybe people in the city can gather to chat and play games, while people in the mountains just able to continue with their tasks.

A team of mountain people is advancing on a vast ice and snow plain in the core area of ​​the Baisen Mountains at an altitude of more than 4,000 meters.

The Big Snow Peak of Baisen used to be—at least in the period of pre-epoch civilization—a plateau.

When the 'Terra Continent' was not the only continent on this planet, it once faced a giant island on another plate, and the Bison Mountain Range was the result of the plate collision.

Due to the catastrophe of the sky, the plateau collapsed, the mountains fell, the mainland sank in the roaring waves, and the Baisen Mountains rose again under the impact.

Together with the plateau in the past, it becomes a mountain.

Even the mountains around the equator have snow. The higher the altitude, the higher the altitude, there will be frost everywhere, but the snow top is different. The snow here may be the result of thousands of years of accumulation, but more, then It is the leftover of a fifth-level true dragon.

Even mountain people would not think of coming to this kind of place, and the occasional search for resources is dangerous enough.

But because of the order of the 'Dragon God', they have trekked on this vast snowfield for more than three months.

If not each of them is driving the exoskeleton armor, there are enough elemental crystals to power the alchemy furnace, this kind of exploration operation can last for three days, it is considered amazing-but even if they are equipped with such professional equipment, they You have to go back and recharge every five or six days.

This kind of exploration process can be called boring. There are no enemies or accidents. able process.

This detection device originated from the city hall. It is said that as long as it is put down and recharged, it can detect all the dragon blood breath around it-as long as the detection device is placed bit by bit according to the block, they will be able to communicate with them. Like minesweeping, sweep out the legacy of the real dragon.

It's just that no one thought that it would take two days to charge this thing.

For two days, there were no monsters—most of them would rather have monsters attack, so that it could be more exciting—and no enemies, so they could only sit by the device and 'wait' and 'recover data'. There is no scenery, only a white sea of ​​snow.

Fortunately, there is also Plants vs. Warcraft.

Yes, Plants vs. Warcraft.

Plants vs. Warcraft is a war chess strategy game developed by the city hall of Xiahui Territory. The game takes place in a territory that has been attacked by flying flame creatures. Here, many dragon blood plants grow, and the survivors They cultivate dragon blood plants, fight against the continuous stream of corrupt monsters, and search for brand new dragon blood plant seeds in constant battles. Survivors will find other companions to protect their homeland—at the same time, discover the source of the corrupt monster lairs one by one... ...

It’s cool to say, but it’s actually just a tower defense game with a group of pixel color blocks and another group of pixel color blocks. Now the performance of the Canaan Moore terminal can only support to this point .

But for the people of Terra, this is already very cool, even to the point of unbelievable.

While waiting for the detection equipment to be recharged, the explorers rely on Plants vs. Warcraft to pass the time. They use this game to compare the length of the clearance, pass the test with the least cost, try a variety of completely different collocations, learn Figure out a way to find the longest hold in infinite mode.

Although the game is very fun, playing it continuously for three or four months will obviously have an indelible impact on the human spirit.

"Ah, I understand!"

Among the sky full of ice and snow, a mountain dweller suddenly had an epiphany when the sun rose for the hundredth time: "Look, isn't this nut the wall of our city?"

"These cherry and potato mines are our city's traps, fortifications or other defensive measures!"

"Those sunflowers, Yeguanggu, are our logistics... Aren't the corn cannons and other pea shooters our alchemy artillery and soldiers!"

"So that's it, Lord Lord used such a simple game to teach us the basic principles of war... Feiyan is powerful and possesses the power to take the initiative to attack. We can only defend passively and deal with their wave after wave of offensive , or counter their sneak attack straight into our hinterland!"

"Isn't this what we are doing now? At first, I didn't quite understand that my lord has not expanded the urban area recently, but has been constantly strengthening the old urban area, all in order to deal with the upcoming raid of the Flame Land! "

"Uh." His companion, another mountain dweller, euphemistically reminded this friend who seemed to have enlightened in the snow: "These newspapers have written about it. Late ruler' this article.”

"I have seen it." The enlightened mountain man was full of glory, and he laughed: "But didn't I understand it before? Now I understand it!"

"Sure enough, you have to experience it yourself to understand!"

Games are such things. Some "false things" that can be simulated can remind people of some real truth and logic.

But in fact, there are still some truths, and it may be a bit late when you realize it.

For example, don't make loud noises on the snow-capped mountains.

Even if you are enlightened.

Boom...boom boom!

Amidst everyone's creepy looking back, with the loud noise like continuous thunder echoing in mid-air, large groups of ice and snow mixed with solid ice capsized down the hillside, and the tsunami-like snow flow rushed to the world. The mountain people's team and detection instruments were swallowed up, and then...

The keel cliff in the shape of a curled up dragon is revealed behind it.

Getting the news, Yin En, who led the team to the rescue at the first time, first rescued a few lucky and unlucky people who were buried in the snow.

It's a good thing they are wearing exoskeleton armor, otherwise they would be dead.

After being rescued, Yin En looked at the place where the keel of the ice dragon was with burning eyes.

"Finally found you."

It is regrettable and natural that before his death, Ice Menglong released all his power between the heaven and the earth, turning it into an endless wind and frost between the heaven and the earth.

So in its remains, there is nothing left except for the indestructible and stable ice bones.

But that doesn't mean it's a bad thing.

The entire Great Snow Peak is the cemetery of Ice Menglong, and its body is the center of the natural field of this land. In other words, Ice Menglong used his life to create an extremely rare 'high Under the thick layer of ice, there are countless ores and unmelted ice that have been alienated by the power of the dragon.

What's more, Yin En didn't intend to dismantle the remains of the Ice Menglong. He is now an ally of Longdao, so he directly called Longdao and asked them to send dragons to collect them.

As a price, Long Island will also provide Yin En with some things he wants, some more precious materials.

Some materials that can be used to break through the fourth energy level, and even perfect the fourth level of the arcane path.

"It's really nice here."

Yin En said to Scott and Roland, who climbed the mountain with him, and now have some altitude sickness, and Xiou, who is spreading his arms and feeling the cold wind: "This can be a new 'sacred place'!"

The original Qiangang Holy Mountain of Qianganglong is not impossible, but Yin En has to make a distinction. He can't make it clear that all the mountain people will come to believe in him, and believe in the 'dragon' behind him, but the clever mountain Min has realized that even if Yin En is the real messenger of the Dragon God, what he wants is definitely not just the belief of the Dragon God.

So, the most intelligent mountain people have begun to obey the propaganda of Chongling Sect. Of course, some people choose to resist Yin En. Those chiefs and priests who intended to reshape the belief in Dragon God were all smart people.

They are well aware of the meaning of culture and tradition, and they know that if Yin En rewrites all of these, then the mountain people will lose their uniqueness, and gradually become an appendage of Xiahui collar from an independent civilized nation.

Became a 'Silver Peak Man'.

Yin En didn't think they were wrong, but who made the mountain people too weak to choose him as the leader? That's the price. Yoon will lead them out of poverty and into abundance, at the cost of losing themselves.

Even lost the 'Holy Land'.

"In the memorandum, the future sect headquarters of Chongling Sect can be built here. The natural spiritual energy field is so abundant here... even goblins can live here!"

Yin En has not forgotten those hot water goblins in his hometown. Although they are about to become sewer cleaners in Sequoia Base (they claim to be the king of underground waters), there is no one in Sequoia Base that is very stable except Crystal Lake. Gathering places of spiritual energy fields.

But Crystal Lake is the site of Crystal Dragon. Although Shuang Die has canonized Qingtong as the general of Crystal Lake, it may be okay to keep some goblins in Nanling. They are all nested in Sequoia Base. Yin En Not easy to take care of either.

"I just don't know if the goblins are willing to change from hot water goblins to ice goblins again...don't care, just ask first."

Yin En shook his head slightly, anyway, he had chosen the place, and there should be fairies willing to come to Daxueding to play.

Thinking of this, he turned his head, looked at the keel of the Ice Menglong, and thought of the real dragon who could be alone in the Institute of Alien Species, chatting with Echo for hundreds of days.

"It can make this lonely place lively. If Bing Menglong knows about it, he will be very happy."

Scott on the side heard Yin En talking to himself, and couldn't help looking at his lord with incredible eyes—and when Yin En realized that he had expressed his true inner thoughts because of the fairy heart Finally, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Why, don't you think this kind of words don't look like me?"

"That's not true, I can always feel the thoughts in your heart, my lord."

Director Tie Zhimin touched his chin, and he thought of a metaphor: "But this time you are willing to speak out, it means that you are more confident, and it also means... you were too cautious in the past, even Even some words in the heart have to be considered again and again before they can be said."

"And now, with the development of our territory getting better and better, your strength is getting stronger and stronger, my lord, and you don't have to pretend to be yourself anymore."

"Be cautious...pretend." Yin En chewed on this sentence, and then smiled: "It is true."

Now is no longer the day when he needs to hide everything. Up to now, his prophet has been exposed, and the identity of the disciple of Fudojian City has also been revealed. What is hidden is nothing but the existence of the gift of the star god.

But even with this identity, as long as 'Mahdi' is still on Dragon Island for a day, the nations of Terra will not turn their attention to 'Yin En'.

"So this is freedom?"

With some emotion, Yin En had to admit that he was indeed not very good at disguising. His intelligence, strength, and character are not good at caring about aspects that he doesn't even bother to hide, but is forced to do so because of survival.

But now... everything is back to normal.

"That's great."

For some reason, Yin En suddenly became in a good mood. Soon, with the establishment of the temporary camp on the top of the snow, he began to discuss with Roland and Xiou about the construction of the "Sacred Land of Chongling Sect".

The so-called holy land is not a simple "holy place" in Terra, it must be the core of a spiritual field, with a large number of inscription arrays inside, forming a huge "spiritual fortress".

This fortress must have the ability to shelter the congregation, cultivate successors, fight the enemy, and reserve key resources.

In addition, it must also have some extraordinary holy relics-for example, the whole body of the Qiangang Holy Mountain and the dragon god's sacrificial fire.

In this way, the Holy Land is the Holy Land.

Fortunately, Daxueding Keel Peak (named by Yin Engang) fully meets the conditions.

Originally, with the current productivity led by Xiahui, there is no way to build the holy land while replenishing the agricultural building, helping the mountain people rebuild the gathering place and clearing up wasteland—not to mention that Yin En is still expanding the alchemy park , By the way, four mountain mines have been enabled.

If it weren't for the heart of Terra to regulate and control most of the simple and repetitive resource allocation and related calculation issues, everyone is probably still writing drafts now.

But Yin En didn't expect to be able to accomplish this matter entirely by relying on his own territory.

"Do you think the king of the mountain will agree?"

Yin En asked Xiou, and Xiou, who has been digesting the harvest from the trip to the Alien Research Institute, thought about it for a while, and replied confidently: "I don't know!"

"However, if you really return the bones of the Ice Menglong to Longdao, it will definitely not be a problem for my mother to help you dig a hole in the mountain that can be stuffed into a super building. Anyway, it is nothing more than building a It's just a hole the size of a dragon's nest, and it's only a few months at most."

Having said so, Xiou put his arms around Yin En's shoulders rather brotherly, and laughed loudly: "What's the big deal, please ask me for help! Absolutely free and no wages!"

"I'm afraid you'll dig up the mountain." Yin En said righteously.

Actually, it is an exaggeration for Siou to dig down the mountain, and it is an exaggeration for a few months. With the power of the fourth level of the king of the mountain, the infrastructure construction can be completed in a week at most.

However, considering Yin En's request is very detailed, it is indeed possible for a few months... But the most important thing is that Yin En wants to use this matter to vaguely bind the King of the Mountain.

When the King of the Mountain refuses, it's not too late to entrust Xiou. Anyway, it's just like what Xiou said, and she doesn't want wages.

It was also when Yin En was discussing the specific architectural drawings and construction details with Roland and Xiou.

Perhaps it was also an explosion of luck related to Chongling Sect.

In Xiahui's territory, another unexpected good thing is happening.

It's about Loren.

Since getting Yin En's permission last summer to enter the Xiahui Leading Ascendant Training Camp, Loren has spent a long time here.

At first, Loren felt a little inferior to his own identity.

It is true that he has awakened spiritual power because of his reverence for Lord Yin En, but this spiritual power has not shown any special power so far, although the adults have been telling him that his spiritual power is the future of the new era. A necessary 'element', but Loren was actually quite uneasy.

He really hoped that he could show the power to help adults immediately, but it backfired.

Fortunately, everyone in the training camp is very nice.

Up to now, Loren has overcome the restraint and shyness when he first entered the training camp, as well as the vague inferiority complex in his heart. Whether it is familiar classmates, mentors or strangers, he can already communicate with them smoothly , introduced himself confidently and modestly, and calmly faced the despair and sadness of his past.

He will even show his skills, weave some flower crowns and give them to familiar friends, and chat with them about his recent life with a smile.

It was only after this that Loren was a little surprised to find that not all the descendants of nobles or knights in the training camp for sublimators led by Xiahui were actually children of ordinary people and descendants of merchants. , and even the refugees from the Western Territory existed—this was very different from the training camp for the ascendants he had imagined.

He thought he was the only child from a poor family.

Because of Loren's excellent grades in the cultural class, he even became the representative of the cultural class and the outstanding student of that semester. Since then, even some old classmates who are somewhat proud of the early training have begun to respect Loren got up.

During the past six months, they marched in the mountains together, rowed boats against the river together, meditated together, gritted their teeth together and performed strength training that oppressed the human body to the limit, ate delicious school meals together, and formed a team to deal with dangerous monsters together ...

At the Xiahuiling training camp, Loren could eat eggs every day. Not one, not two, and he could have eaten as much as he wanted if it weren't for the high cholesterol.

At first Loren would just be happy about it.

But on the day when he really integrated into this training camp and completely integrated into the order of Xiahui, he was in his own position, crying bitterly at the egg in his hand.

No one laughed at him. Too many people in the training camp have also felt this kind of inexplicable sadness, a kind of sadness that reflects the endless hardships of the past because of joy and happiness. On that day, Loren received several hugs and a friend who was willing to listen to his troubles in the past.

That friend's name is Miles, a tall Westlander. He is silent but reliable on weekdays. He is the representative of martial arts in the training camp, and his swordsmanship is very good.

He also has psychic powers, and he also has things he wants to confide in. After Loren told his past, he also slowly told Loren his story.

About psychic energy, about laboratories, about dukes and empires, about flamelands and disasters... death, pain, the death of all relatives, loved ones, and those who care about and want to embrace, and the final departure.

Listening to this friend's story, Loren went from shock at the beginning, to self-ashamedness in the middle, to faint realization at the end.

Shocked because Miles had never told anyone about his past before. Everyone thought he was just an ordinary refugee from the West who fled all the way to Xiahui, that's all.

Who would have thought that he walked out of the azure city where no one survived, and the Avak territory that turned into a dead zone?

Ashamed because compared with Miles, his pain and despair are so 'insignificant', Miles walked out of **** with the despair and resentment of his hometown, but he himself...

No.

Thinking of this, Loren understood a little bit.

My own pain and Miles' pain are the same pain. It does not distinguish between high and low because one side only involves family members, and the other involves a city or the entire territory.

Could it be said that the indignation of being helpless when one's relatives are about to die is not as good as the despair of the destruction of one's hometown? Delicious food and fun games may be able to distinguish between high and low, but the despair in everyone's heart cannot be compared.

Their sufferings are all due to the mistakes of this world. They are Flamelanders, Empires, Ascendants, Psykers, and all those who should be able to do something, but don't.

"We are all the same." At that time, Miles said softly: "We all awakened to psionic power because of powerless despair, but after gaining power, we recalled the pain again, imagining 'if at that time I It would be nice to have the current strength and knowledge'."

"This is an inevitable regret, imagine... how much I want to go back in time with this power, and save my mother and Aunt Lydia's family."

"But I can't. None of us can."

"Loren...you are as old as my sister."

The purple-haired swordsman said softly: "If I were you, I would definitely suffer more than you, so cry if you want to."

"No, thank you, Brother Miles."

After understanding why he wanted to cry, Loren didn't want to cry.

He is just lonely, just unwilling.

I just feel that I have begun to be happy, but my grandma can't enjoy all this anymore.

I have obviously started to grow and become an excellent child, earning points for her, allowing her to live with peace of mind and enjoy the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers... But she is still in the ward of the laboratory, Waiting for death to come.

This kind of unwillingness, this kind of helplessness, this kind of pain made him at a loss.

Fortunately, he is not alone.

Loren finally understood——after first choosing to follow the adults, he finally understood the meaning of his belief in this world.

I will never face suffering alone again. Lord Yin En, Miles, his friends, all teachers and classmates have gradually become a whole with him.

He is no longer alone, and he also understands why everyone gathers together and becomes classmates and friends.

Because he is a Xiahui leader, they fell in love with this land from the bottom of their hearts.

They all chose to gather under Yin Yinfeng's command...

Become the prophet's people.
