Chapter 345 - 345: Sudden Appearance (2)
Chapter 345 - 345: Sudden Appearance (2)
After the gala ended, Mu Qing and Lin Ran left early.
Mu Qing was now the deputy commander of the Snow Wolf Domain Combat Team. She had a lot of work to do and did not have much time to stay here.
And it was all the more so for Lin Ran.
It was not easy to apply for leave when there were heavy scientific research tasks.
After a short reunion, they continued on the path to their ideals.
Feng Qi did not leave early. He stood at the entrance of Star City Academy and watched every student leave.
When Lu Yue arrived at the entrance of the academy with Jian Lan on his back, a smile appeared on his face.
“Brother Qi, we’ll meet again if fate allows it.”
“Where are you going?”
“The front line.”
“You’re both going to the front line. Why don’t you follow Mu Qing?”
Lu Yue shook his head.
“I’m more suitable to be a domain wanderer. A combat team isn’t suitable for
me.”
“You want to be a lone wolf? If you get injured and no one saves you, it won’t be cool at all.”
“I’m just going to die in battle. I’m never afraid of death.”
H
Id*ot!” Feng Qi could not help but glare at the indifferent Lu Yue.
Lu Yue was still the same. He was so in every timeline and had never changed.
The days he spent with Lu Yue in many timelines appeared in Feng Qi’s mind.
He had also made a decision for this timeline.
He would kidnap Lu Yue into Dawn and turn him into his companion again.
He also knew that Lu Yue’s dream was the same as his. They were both for the final victory of humanity.
Thinking of this, he looked at Lu Yue and smiled.
“Lu Yue, I now invite you to be my companion again.”
Looking at the puzzled Lu Yue, he pointed at the Scarlet Research Institute’s military vehicle parked not far away.
“Why don’t you come with me?”
“Alright.” Lu Yue, who was not guarded against him at all, immediately nodded.
A moment later, after sending off Yan Yue, who was the last to leave, he led Lu Yue to the military vehicle.
The car then drove towards the Scarlet Research Institute.
He also told Lu Yue his secrets without reservation after returning to the Scarlet Research Institute.
He did not elaborate on the pain he suffered in each timeline, but Lu Yue still took a long time to recover.
Faced with Feng Qi’s invitation again,
he did not hesitate this time and agreed decisively. He decided to continue following him from now on.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Feng Qi smiled happily.
In this timeline, the sharp sword returned to its sheath and continued to accompany him.
In the following days, Feng Qi continued to immerse himself in high-intensity training.
As for Lu Yue, he became his sparring partner.
As he trained day after day, he often paid attention to the news from Mu Qing.
Three months later, he received news that Mu Qing had formed the Dawn Army.
After that, good news came almost every day.
Mu Qing grew very quickly. During this period, there were even some scavenger warriors who were unwilling to cooperate with the combat teams in the city who went to seek shelter from her.
During this period, Mu Qing sent an email.
She told him that the position of the deputy commander of the Dawn Army was still reserved for him.
Faced with another invitation, he hesitated and still did not agree. He replied that Mu Qing still had unfinished research tasks on hand and would definitely go after completing them.
At the same time, he specifically stated in the email that there was no need to reserve the position of deputy commander for him. This position ought to be given to the capable.
In the end, a month later, Mu Qing gave him a another reply.
The position deputy commander was always be kept empty for him, waiting for his arrival.
Feng Qi felt helpless about this.
In fact, he did not care if he was a deputy commander or not, but Mu Qing had already made up her mind. He could not persuade her at all.
He only replied: We’ll meet again in the future.
Five years passed in the blink of an eye.
Scarlet Research Institute, training room.
Feng Qi carried out high-intensity physical training in the training room as usual.
In the past few years, his compatibility with the Demon Dragon Rune Crystal had become higher and higher, but his strength had already approached a bottleneck.
After fusing with the rune crystal, he mainly relied on the energy of the rune crystal to reconstruct the strength of his body.
However, there was a limit to this process.
Just like a cup of hot water mixing with cold water, the temperature would eventually stabilize.
The Demon Dragon Rune Crystal’s transformation of his body was almost at its limit.
Wei Wei explained that this was one of the shortcomings of rune transformation.
After the transformation was completed, although it could give the person a huge increase in strength for a short period of time, when the power of the rune crystal was completely digested, the growth of strength would enter a bottleneck and it would be difficult to advance.
But there were exceptions.
The scarlet rune crystal on Mu Qing’s body had almost infinite potential.
As long as there was enough food, the rune crystal could infinitely extract energy and feed it to Mu Qing after conversion.
As for him, who did not have the ability to devour and evolve,
in the future, if he wanted to continue growing, he could only rely on cultivation.
However, after the rune transformation, one’s compatibility with cultivation techniques would decrease, and the cultivation efficiency would be affected.
In response, Feng Qi made his choice.
When the bottleneck officially arrived, he would start to cultivate and continue to increase his strength.
Now, his strength had already reached Silver- Upper, but in his opinion, such strength was completely insufficient.
The future path was filled with danger. Only by surviving could he obtain more information.
After three hours of strength training, he put down the special chains and prepared to replenish some nutrient fluids.
However, just as he walked out of the strength training room, his heart suddenly beat faster, and a strong sense of danger struck him.
The Demon Dragon Rune Crystal gave him wild beast instincts, allowing him sense when there was killing intent approaching.
Without hesitation, he decisively turned around and kicked sideways.
Bang!
A dull collision sounded. He saw a light blue figure being kicked away.
He also saw the assassin’s appearance clearly.
It had the appearance of a human and was about 1.5 meters tall. There was a white eye between its eyebrows. As it blinked slightly, an invisible force wrapped around its body and froze its flying body in midair.
When Feng Qi saw the assassin’s appearance, his heart sank. He was certain of one thing.
He had always suspected that every time he died young, there was hidden assassins targeting him.
In the previous timeline, he had died silently several times.
His suspects were always the Science and Technology Research Institute and Tiger Soul Research Institute.
This was especially true for the Science and Technology Research Institute. His death several times was related to it.
However, as the amount of intelligence increased, he realized that some deaths did not seem to be caused by the Science and Technology Research Institute or the Tiger Soul Research Institute.
It was like a death curse. At a certain time, he would encounter death.
Moreover, this point of death would change with history.
Back then, he had suspected that it might be an unknown third party who had assassinated him.
Looking at the blue-skinned assassin, he was very sure in his heart.
The third eye on the assassin’s forehead blinked at him. He suddenly felt his body sink, and a large number of black spots appeared in his eyes. In the end, his entire eye was corroded by black.
His vision was also shrouded in darkness.
It was as if he had been locked in a pitch-black prison and could no longer sense everything in the outside world.
At the same time, he could still feel his consciousness being quickly devoured by the darkness. If he did not leave this mental prison soon, he might die at any moment from his consciousness collapsing.
He did not panic.
He closed his eyes in the darkness and tried to sense the Demon Dragon Rune Crystal that was connected to his consciousness.
Immediately, the Demon Dragon Rune Crystal appeared in his consciousness.
Without any hesitation, he decisively activated Fury.
In an instant, the special energy in the rune crystal surged into his body. His skin was like a cooked prawn, and steam rose on the surface. His imprisoned consciousness also escaped the control at this moment.
To be more precise, he had already lost consciousness.
The characteristic of Fury was to exchange intelligence for an increase in strength.
As long as I’m stupid enough, 1 can be immune to any mental control and fight instinctively.
He pounced straight at the blue figure.
The fist that was filled with rising steam suddenly hit the face of the blue figure with a face full of disbelief and sent it flying.
He, who had lost consciousness, did not stop at all. He decisively approached the blue figure’s arm again and pulled it off.
Blue blood splattered everywhere, and the assassin screamed in pain. Immediately, its third eye rolled again, and a terrifying invisible force suddenly erupted, sending Feng Qi flying again.
The blow even left a dent in his chest.
However, with his powerful self-healing ability, his injuries healed in the blink of an eye. Feng Qi, who had lost consciousness, pounced on the assassin again.
Upon seeing this, a hint of fear appeared in the assassin’s eyes.
What Feng Qi did not know was that in the surveillance footage of the training room,
he was the only one fighting the air, and the assassin’s figure was not captured..
