In the end of the world, I become an immortal alone.

Chapter 145: The Butcher's Knife Raised [asking for monthly ticket]

Eh? Never played before?
Shen Hai lay on the ground in a bit of surprise.

He barely raised his head and looked forward, and could see Ling Tong and Sister Wan had the same surprised expressions.

Wang Jixuan sat on Shenhai's back, with his left sword finger pointing at the back of Shenhai's head. Shenhai couldn't use any strength in his body, and could only use his mechanical arm to grab from behind.

"Brother Shenhai, calm down."

Taoist Wang said quickly:

"I admit that I am also responsible for the way things turned out. I didn't expect a sub-king-level pterosaur to suddenly show up and disrupt our plans.

“But it wasn’t me who stuffed the red snake soul into the crystal core. It was the mechanism of the blade beast crystal core itself.

"I will try my best to help you in the future... Well, there is still a chance for you to live a normal married life... Maybe the definition of normal is a bit broad. After all, the nature of the species has changed, but the body size should be able to make up for it..."

Deep Sea's resolute face was full of black lines.

Lingtong and Wanjie raised their hands to support their foreheads in unison.

Sister Wan laughed and scolded: "You might as well not explain."

Taoist Wang smiled awkwardly: "Brother Shenhai, you won't hit me anymore, right?"

"Let me up! No more fighting!"

"That's good."

Wang Jixuan jumped lightly backwards and landed steadily three meters away, retreating behind the little maid.

Shenhai climbed up, covering the back of his head, and looked at Wang Jixuan with a frown.

Mudan is ready to protect her superior.

Shen Hai hesitated to talk about this embarrassing topic, and asked:

"You just... Although I didn't use much energy, how did you control me just now?"

"This is a weak spot on all half-human mechas."

Taoist Wang shrugged:

“I took the opportunity to do some research while giving Ling Tong a massage. Although the half-human mecha has been completely transformed, it still has many weaknesses.

“Strong mechanical parts, generally strengthened physical parts, and fragile brain and soul.

"Don't worry, we are not enemies."

Ling Tong nodded with his hands behind his back: "I always feel offended."

"How long will it take to get to the headquarters?" Wang Jixuan asked.

"Because we have to sail in secret, it will take about two and a half hours."

"Then I'll give you two a psychic massage!"

Wang Jixuan scratched flexibly with his ten fingers:

"By the way, let's talk about what to do next... Sister Wan, please prepare a set of Uncle Tai's clothes for me, and make me a nano mask, and adjust it to look like Uncle Tai."

Sister Wan made an OK gesture.

Lingtong controlled the mechanical dog to carry two folding chairs.

She hadn't been able to enjoy this kind of service for more than half a month, and the connection between the machine and her body began to ache again.

A few moments.

Wang Jixuan sat behind Lingtong and Shenhai, helping them press down their heads with his left and right hands.

Sister Wan placed a projection screen in front of the three people and briefly introduced the development progress of the "bio-mecha" and the project they were researching - how to equip the red snake code-named "Spear of Thorns" with a technological weapon system.

The strong physical fitness of the blade beasts, their superb ability to resist mental shocks, combined with the technological firepower system of humans...

No one dares to predict now what level of combat power the Red Snake will reach in the future.

It may be that one plus one is greater than two, or it may be that one plus one is less than one.

Sister Wan said quickly:
"Fortress No. 82 in the Middle Ancient Basin has become the center of the vortex, with an endless stream of Mimic Blade Beasts surrounding it from all directions.

"We have already opened a backup fortress here, and moved 82 percent of the residents there, successfully starting the ecological cycle. So even if Fort becomes quiet in the future, it should be used as a military logistics fortress or a reserve resource.

"The Blade Beast is looking for you like crazy."

Ling Tong added: "The Blade Beast should not be able to mark you now. We suspect that your marking this time is related to the negotiation with the Mimic Blade Beast."

Wang Jixuan asked, "How is the detection of the brain-eating worm going?"

"In the past half month, we have completed the inspection of most of the main industrial populations in the fortress. We have produced three batches of deep brain scanning equipment, and will do second and third screening later."

A smile appeared on Sister Wan's lips:

"It is now basically certain that one of the main reasons why the Blade Beasts became angry and attacked us forcefully was because the Brain Devourer was discovered.

"Their plan to spy on humans has failed.

“All the major war zones and the Psychic City are being inspected, and we are also taking advantage of this opportunity to discuss this.

"According to incomplete statistics, the influence of the Psychic City on the major war zones has dropped by at least 5%. Due to the crazy attacks on the Psychic City by the D5 war zone, the emergence of the Psychic City ruling faction's representative, the Psychic Management Council, and the Psychic City's indifference to the D Blade Beast Tide, human civilization has begun to show a trend of clearing out psychics.

"We should be able to see a good show when we go to the headquarters this time."

"What do you mean by a good show?" Wang Jixuan was a little confused.

Sister Wan said, "We will publicly destroy some of the crystal cores, and announce to the public that 400,000 crystal cores have been destroyed, so as to store high-quality crystal cores and reserve materials for Mr. Wang's subsequent psychic research. By the way, we can also achieve some political goals."

Destroy part of the crystal core? And then say that all of them were destroyed?

Wang Jixuan's eyes lit up, and then he felt a little regretful.

It is certainly a good thing to use this method to obtain a large amount of crystal cores, but those destroyed crystal cores contain a huge amount of spiritual energy!

“When will the destruction take place?”

"About a week? We also need to use this incident to confront the Psychic City."

"Okay!" Wang Jixuan nodded vigorously, "When the time comes, be sure to arrange for me to do the destruction work!"

Sister Wan was stunned. Although she didn't understand, she quickly wrote "The King's request" into the memo.

Ling Tong asked: "Is there a risk of exposure?"

"It's okay, I can just move around with Uncle Tai's face on my shoulder," Wang Jixuan began to press Lingtong's shoulders.

Shen Hai was speechless...

He also wanted to press somewhere else, his head was almost rubbed bald!
However, Shenhai closed his eyes and sighed, saying "thank you" in his heart, without making any requests.

It was partly thanks to Wang Zheng that his wife was rescued.

Although there is a slight deviation in form, Shenhai will try his best to repay this favor.

Sister Wan began to introduce the information of the twelve highest-ranking officers of the D5 theater command, who were the next targets for Wang Jixuan’s soul search.

Fu Jian's order was to let Ling Tong, Shen Hai and their logistics team assist Wang Zheng in the investigation.

Things like soul searching can only be discussed in private and cannot be discussed in public.

Wang Jixuan found a very familiar name among these twelve people.

Black Shell was the identity that Fu Jian used at the beginning. He was Ling Tong's biological grandfather. He was also a retired pilot of the second-generation half-human mecha, a meritorious combat hero, and a terrifying mecha.

'Let's start with him.'

Wang Jixuan muttered in his heart:
'This old general should be the one Xiao Fu trusts the most, and the probability of him rebelling is extremely low. Starting with him can also give Xiao Fu peace of mind. '"By the way," Ling Tong asked, "I have almost collected the materials you asked me to collect. Do you want to use them now?"

"So fast? Didn't they say it was a secret collection?"

"oops!"

Sister Wan laughed beside her:

"Our chief officer runs around everywhere, flies 3,000 kilometers a day, and even goes directly into the mine to collect..."

Ling Tong simply said: "Sister Wan, go fly the plane."

"Yes, sir," Sister Wan quickly slipped away.

"Thank you," Wang Jixuan placed his palm on Lingtong's back and injected a hint of cool air along her mechanical spine.

Lingtong closed her eyes and enjoyed herself comfortably, with a look of peace and relaxation on her pretty face.

Shen Hai, whose scalp was still being pressed, frowned and pursed his lips again when he saw this, and didn't know how to complain for a moment.

——In fact, Shen Hai is a veteran and has too much brain congestion, so Taoist Wang is focusing on helping him resolve it.

To put beauty before friendship is not what a decent monk would do.

……

These twelve senior military officers are involved in various aspects of the D5 theater, including war command, local theater supervision, logistics, semi-human mecha troops, and scientific and technological development.

They are both Fu Jian's right-hand men.

But regarding the connection between the 'spiritual practitioners and the Black Storm', and the 'human-blade negotiation' that took place outside Fortress No. 82, only Fu Jian and these twelve people knew the specific details.

The six elders of the Psychic City knew the details of the negotiations and accidentally "revealed" them at a meeting within the ruling faction.

Isn't it obvious that there is a traitor among these twelve veteran generals of D5?
Fu Jian was in great pain, but the old marshal had seen too much and would not be influenced by his personal emotions. He was decisive in giving orders to Wang Jixuan, to kill one traitor if found, even if it meant killing half of the twelve people, and he would never tolerate it.

D5 has a rich reserve of military talent and can always find deputies to replace them.

Of course, Fu Jian also asked Sister Wan to express some other views.

If there are minor mistakes but they do not betray the basic position, no one will be held accountable;

If the law is violated in non-wartime and the subjective fault is obvious but it does not cause losses to more than one person and does not betray the basic position, a warning or early retirement shall be given;
Those who have not betrayed the basic position but whose crimes are too serious will be investigated separately.

If Taoist Wang had just arrived in this world, he probably wouldn't care about all the rules and regulations set by Fu Jian. If he didn't like something, he would just pinch the soul of the person.

But now, he has changed a little.

This time he just wanted to do what he could, search their souls, check their memories, find the traitor, and truthfully fill in the faults in the memories of these twelve senior generals.

How Fu Jian dealt with it was none of his business.

When the transport plane arrived at the airport near the headquarters, Wang Jixuan had already changed his clothes and put on a white coat with a gray maintenance suit underneath.

Lingtong personally put a nano mask on him, and the mask adjusted itself to reveal Uncle Tai's face.

"not bad."

Taoist Wang touched his chin.

Lingtong has changed into a camouflage military uniform. Her slender figure stands proudly upright, and the unnecessary decorations have been removed from her ponytail.

"How long will it take to complete?" Ling Tong asked softly.

"It will only take a few hours if it's fast," Wang Jixuan said, "Do you want me to meet with the commander-in-chief?"

"Try not to. Senior engineers are not qualified to meet with the commander-in-chief directly. Is there something you want to convey?"

"Nothing, I just thought that now that I'm at his mountain, I should say hello to him."

Wang Jixuan gently closed his eyes, and his spiritual awareness slowly spread out. The spherical space with a radius of one kilometer with him as the center, and all situations appeared in his mind.

Wow, it’s so cool that there is no isolation formation targeting spiritual consciousness!

The airport was still some distance away from the city where the headquarters was located, and Wang Jixuan had already seen the tip of the iceberg...

The tip of the iceberg of the underground super-large fortress!
The headquarters was built on a cliff that was easy to defend but difficult to attack. On the surface, it looked like just a "simple" urban area with a few iconic reinforced concrete buildings.

The average altitude here is more than 1,000 meters, with steep cliffs on both sides.

But the entire cliff has been hollowed out, and inside is a super firepower fortress with extremely sophisticated mechanical structures everywhere.

Wang Jixuan's spiritual sense swept through and initially discovered that there were enough gun barrels, missile silos, and catapult racks...

Totally too many to count!

If he stood on the edge of the cliff and looked out, he could see one 'meteor crater' after another in the desert in front of him.

That is the proof that dozens of epic wars have broken out here!
Below the super firepower fortress, Wang Jixuan could vaguely see a huge underground city. Compared with this place, Fortress No. 76 was like a county town compared to the capital.

"Only if a pillar-level blade beast appears can we hope to break through here, right?"

Wang Jixuan withdrew his spiritual consciousness and didn't look at it any further, so as to avoid being tempted to practice here.

"But I still hope there's no war here."

An off-road vehicle drove out of the back door of the transport plane. Lingtong, Shenhai, and Mudan, who were dressed in military uniforms, along with Sister Wan and "Uncle Tai", rushed to the D5 command building.

They came here for a perfect reason - to make a brief report on the research and development of biological mechas and to apply for more research resources.

In addition, Fu Jian also issued a notice one day in advance:

[The new equipment for searching for brain-eating worms has passed the most rigorous tests. Senior officers of the General Command have conducted a secondary screening in advance. Please enter the corresponding medical room for scanning according to the notification you have received later.]

Fu Jian has already set the stage for Wang Jixuan's next performance.

There was still quite a distance from the airport to the headquarters. Wang Jixuan was bored, so he took a piece of paper and started writing and drawing.

Ling Tong, who was standing by, tilted his head and asked, "What are you drawing?"

"Flying sword, the coolest weapon."

"Why is there a glass bead next to the sword?"

"This is not a glass bead," Taoist Wang laughed. "This is another form of the flying sword. The precious materials I asked you to collect are for making it."

Ling Tong whispered: "In fact, the Ling Sword is already very useful, so there is no need to spend too much time on it. We still have to rely on the Destruction Cannon to fight."

"This is for my own use."

Wang Jixuan said this casually, but he regretted it as soon as he said it.

The speech was somewhat straightforward.

He immediately changed the subject: "Isn't Red Snake going to make a mecha shell?"

"Yes," Ling Tong nodded gently, "Our current idea is to install an oversized X-armor on it, which will greatly enhance its mobility and defense capabilities."

“That’s great,” Wang Jixuan said with a smile, “When I have enough materials and I have the ability, I will make it a spear that can absorb its own spiritual energy, so that it can challenge the king-level blade beast.”

"This is a great idea. I'll ask Sister Wan to write it down immediately."

Wang Jixuan reminded: "Please use the crystal core of the king-level blade beast to pay for the patent fee."

The few people and the mechanical maid each smiled.

The corners of Lingtong's mouth were curved in a beautiful way.

The front was approaching the checkpoint. Wang Jixuan made a gesture to Lingtong, used his breath to infuse his throat to adjust his voice, then turned around and began to chat with Sister Wan about some research on biological mechas.

The super fortress is still asleep in the early morning;
And the butcher's knife for cultivating immortals has arrived.
