Gate of Revelation Chapter 830:
The place Chen Xiaolian agreed to meet was not in the resort in the center of the lake, but in a park in the city center.
The main body of the park is a hill, surrounded by a river on one side, and bustling commercial streets and residential areas on three sides.
Chen Xiaolian lay on the bench, holding his head in his hands, enjoying the afternoon sun.
On the lawn not far away, a few tourists are feeding pigeons, and a few children are flying kites.
When the agreed time just arrived, Chen Xiaolian also heard Adric's voice.
"Chen Xiaolian."
Chen Xiaolian turned over and sat up, looking up at Adric.
He is standing in front of the bench, wearing a simple casual suit, and without a weapon in his hand. He looks like a white-collar worker everywhere.
"How was the selection of this place?" Chen Xiaolian greeted Adric, showing a friendly smile.
Adric looked around and frowned: "You saw my first opening remark, this? You didn't ask me to come here to see the scenery, right."
"I'm not talking about scenery, but terrain." Chen Xiaolian shook his head: "I think you have checked the surrounding terrain before you came in. This park is in the downtown area and there is a river to the north."
"I didn't understand what you meant." Adric shook his head.
"Sincere! This is my sincerity!" Chen Xiaolian felt a little frustrated, feeling that he was throwing a pretty eye to the blind man: "The river helps to block it, and the downtown area means you can't fight it! You are alone. Seeing me, I will probably feel a little guilty, so I deliberately chose a place that looks safe to you! I can make sure that if you are in danger, you can run away immediately!"
"It turned out to be so, but...you think too much." Adric laughed, but there was a trace of desolation in his smile: "Since I am here, I have no plans to escape. Because I know it well. , If you really want to kill me, even if I escape, I can’t escape."
He sighed lightly, and continued: "Since I became the head of the Dark Knights, you are the only one who can give me this feeling. Even on the day of the day, I could not do this. A little bit."
"You really want to stay open." Chen Xiaolian didn't expect Adric to be so relieved, and patted the other half of the bench under his butt: "It's okay, even if you don't plan to do so, at least I will show it first. My sincerity. Sit down."
"Let's talk about it, what do you want to see me doing." Adric did not sit down, still standing in front of Chen Xiaolian.
Even if he knew that if Chen Xiaolian really wanted to kill himself, it wouldn't be troublesome, but his attitude was still resistant and rigid.
"From the destruction of Zero City to the present... it has been more than half a year. I don't know where you are all hiding these days, but it should not be so happy. I remember...I finally evacuated. Most of them are not the main combatants, right?"
"Yes." Adric answered briefly.
"Then if...I can provide you with a new Zero City, can you do a good job as a leader?" Chen Xiaolian's tone was calm and calm, but his words struck like lightning. Adric's heart.
"What?!" Adric struggled to squeeze two words from his throat.
"A new Zero City. Of course, it’s not so perfect at the moment. More precisely, it’s just a rough. Because of this, I need your help. The people you evacuated are not mostly technical Personnel?"
A daze flashed across Adric's eyes.
On the way he came, he thought about thousands of possibilities, but he never thought that Chen Xiaolian actually gave such an answer.
"Are you... are you kidding me?" Adric quickly cleared up his emotions and calmed himself down.
"If this is a joke, it would be too boring." Chen Xiaolian shook his head.
"Take me to see. Where is it?"
"It's everywhere." Chen Xiaolian smiled: "Let's go, let's find a place where no one is."
The top of the mountain, a secluded corner.
Chen Xiaolian stopped and looked around to confirm that there were no other tourists.
A light curtain hung down in front of the two of them.
"Please, Mr. Adric."
……
When Adric stood on the central square, even with his composure and the city, he couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Although there is only a vast flat ground all around, the central square below his feet is completely the most familiar appearance in his memory.
"I haven't come to Zero City many times, and I am not familiar with the surrounding buildings. The only thing that can be restored from memory is this central square." Chen Xiaolian said behind him: "The rest, It’s up to you."
"By me...men?" Adric turned his head abruptly.
"Yes. As you can see, this is just an empty city now. So, I hope you will bring everyone you lead here and restore it to the original appearance of Zero City. And After that, this New Zero City will once again become the holy land of the Awakened World!"
"What are you...what are you planning to do?" Adric felt that he could no longer see Chen Xiaolian.
He built this "New Zero City" himself!
Looking at the current appearance of the central square, it means that the layout here is completely determined by him.
It's impossible for Adric to know what it means to be a Zero City monopolized by Chen Xiaolian.
But looking at what Chen Xiaolian said just now, it turned out to be to let the former Zero City resident team...into the master again?
Why did Chen Xiaolian separate the meat in his bowl for others?
How can there be such a fool in the world who is a wedding dress for others? !
"Because I need to unite all the awakened. I heard you clearly, I said everything. And I..." Chen Xiaolian understood what Adric was thinking: "Although I have enough strength, I don't have Enough prestige. To put it bluntly, there are very few people who know me in the entire world of Awakeners. How long will it take me to find someone to join the group? So the most convenient and quick way is to borrow your reputation. Let all the awakened know that Zero City is resurrected again!"
"Borrowing the corpse to return the soul?" Adric took a deep breath: "What you want is the law of Zero City."
"It's so clever!" Chen Xiaolian gave Adric a thumbs up.
That's the truth.
No matter how strong Chen Xiaolian is, it is impossible to accumulate enough prestige in a short time to integrate all the awakened ones.
On the contrary, even if the remnants of Zero City are now so weak that they can only survive and hide, their former prestige is still not to be underestimated.
Once the news of the reconstruction of Zero City spreads, the shock and explosive power of this kind of news will cause an uproar in the world of the Awakeners. No matter how strong Chen Xiaolian was, he would never be able to do this.
It's like after Wang Mang usurped the Han, Liu Xiu completely relied on her to lay down the world, but still wanted to bear the name of the Han Dynasty.
After the fall of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Bei had almost no relationship with the Eastern Han imperial family in blood, and he still wanted to continue to call his country a great Han.
Even a Huns like Liu Yuan had to forcibly recognize his ancestor and return to his clan, and put himself a sign of Han clan clan.
No matter what year, signboards are always important!
Adric looked at Chen Xiaolian's energetic expression, and suddenly laughed at himself.
"What else are you dissatisfied with?" Chen Xiaolian sighed: "Compared with your current situation in hiding in Tibet, this is better than that, right?"
"Of course it's not dissatisfaction." Adric shook his head: "Of course I know how good this is for us. Of course I know very well. I just... I didn't expect that I would work for you someday. I should What do you call you? Boss?"
"Come on, I don't like this one." Chen Xiaolian shook his head: "I don't plan to take in any subordinates. Strictly speaking, we are a partnership relationship-rest assured, I won't slay the donkey."
Adric smiled non-committal.
"Then, you should be able to tell me the coordinates of your base now, right?" Chen Xiaolian glanced at Adric with some playfulness: "I can hide for so long without being discovered by others. You are really Can hide. Where is it?"
"Antarctica. The exact location is..." Adric reported a latitude and longitude.
"No wonder." Chen Xiaolian was slightly surprised. He had thought about where the remaining personnel of Zero City was hiding, but he didn't expect to run into that kind of ice and snow.
During the hurried evacuation, the remaining personnel in Zero City were of course not able to carry much supplies. In order to conceal the traces as much as possible, we must avoid going out to the greatest extent. These days, it must have been a hard life.
"The supplies have almost bottomed out. If this were not the case, I would not make up my mind to meet you." Adric sighed softly, "In fact, supplies are a trivial matter. The point is that I have been involved in everything for more than half a year. All copies of people."
"Huh?" Chen Xiaolian was surprised, but soon understood.
Most of the evacuated in Zero City are logistics personnel, and the degree of reinforcement is not high. Although it is not weak compared to those scattered ordinary team members, once they meet in the dungeon, even if they can win the battle, it is impossible to kill the opponent without any information leakage.
Not to mention, some copies are not competitive copies, and even simply limit the killing of each other among the participants, but require cooperation to complete the task.
This also means that once participating in the mission in the dungeon, the traces of the remaining personnel in Zero City may be exposed.
However, after losing the shield of Zero City, those logistics personnel who did not need to participate in the dungeon now have the possibility of being drawn!
Obviously, in every dungeon where City Zero personnel participated, Adric personally went into battle, and then ordered everyone to hide, and then complete the dungeon alone.
He relied on himself to replace all the people in Zero City to make copies for more than half a year! And from start to finish, no trace has been found!
"You... are so awesome!"
Chen Xiaolian went through Adric's situation these days in his mind, and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
