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

Chapter 180 Heroic Commander and Politician [Seeking monthly votes]

Late at night, in the Taoist priest’s dormitory.

Wang Jixuan finished his meditation and stood up, stretching slightly. The three-foot flying sword that was revolving around him began to tremble like a spirit snake, and then turned into a silver-white sword ball and flew into Wang Jixuan's palm.

This sword pill seemed to be tangible but without substance. It floated up and down in his sea of ​​qi, continuing to enjoy the nourishment of his sea of ​​qi's primordial spirit.

The flying sword is done.

But Wang Jixuan found that he was not as happy as he had expected, as if he had accomplished a small thing that had been planned.

It's indeed a small matter.

Monks use spells, talismans, formations, techniques, elixirs and weapons to protect themselves, and this is just a small help in the way of weapons.

"With a flying sword, I can sneak attack an S-level enemy."

Taoist Master Wang felt refreshed and peaceful. Looking back on his practice, a smile appeared on his face.

The spiritual consciousness extended over seven miles in an instant, and then returned to the body in an instant, with a lot of more information in his mind.

Mudan was hurrying back from downstairs, holding a lunch box with a bowl of steaming egg noodles in it.

'How does she know when I stop practicing?'

Wang Jixuan felt a little strange, but didn't think much about it.

He went to the balcony to watch the late night scenery for a while, and then waited for Mudan to come back with the noodles so that he could feast on them.

"From now on, I will reduce my food intake. I will enjoy the pleasure of eating again after I have completed my foundation building."

Unfortunately, the noodles were made with industrial-grade poached eggs, which were nutritious enough, but the taste was a little bit worse.

When Wang Jixuan had almost finished eating, Mudan stood aside and began to report:
"Sir, there is nothing unusual around Fortress No. 76. Professor Shen Qionglin is temporarily staying on the surface. She has contacted you before and wants to apply to observe and study Sister Red Snake. I have postponed it for you to reply to her tomorrow.

“The Buddhist Hall team has arrived at the border and entered the battlefield, and they are performing quite well.

"Also, Commander Ling Tong sent a message a few hours ago. You can talk to her anytime at your convenience."

Wang Jixuan took a sip of noodle soup from the bowl and said, "Then let me ask Sister Wan if Lingtong has had a rest... How is the war situation in various places?"

"The attacks of the Blade Beasts on all six fronts have been repelled. Let me show you this."

Mudan put her hands together and then opened them. The palms of her hands formed a projection screen, on which a short video of several dozen seconds appeared.

In a hilly area, hundreds of earth mounds suddenly appeared on the ground, and then the mounds were pushed open by manhole cover-like objects, and silver-gray "skeleton frames" crawled out from them.

This is not the rebirth of the skeleton, but...

Mechanical army!

From the secret base hidden here, tens of thousands of autonomous robots without any unnecessary decorations on their bodies quickly crawled out!
They ran towards the troop carrier parked in front, skillfully driving the heavy firepower provided by the D5 war zone, remaining silent and rushing to the battlefield.

"The commander-in-chief has activated a total of 160,000 mechanical bodies!"

Peony said excitedly:

"The machines can take turns waking up and maintaining each other. After entering the underground base, as long as there are functions and spare parts, 95% of the machines can be kept ready for battle at any time.

“This should only be a small part of the machinery stored in D5!

"They changed the course of the battle! With their accurate judgment and fearlessness of sacrifice, they opened a gap in the Blade Beast front, and successfully used the self-destructing nuclear bomb truck tactic to injure the King-level Blade Beast over there!
"Uh...Sister Wan responded.

"She said that Commander Ling Tong has been resting for a few hours. She also told you to wake her up immediately after you send her a message. She has something important to discuss. Do you want to wake her up?"

"Go ahead and yell," Wang Jixuan was a little worried, "Let me check her condition."

"Okay!"

Mudan tapped the air with her fingers a few times.

Soon, she brought a stereo projector, placed it in front of Wang Jixuan, and went to the balcony to stand there.

The main character is a well-behaved and sensible one.

On the balcony next door, Gao Huating, who was staring into the dark looking for inspiration, looked curiously at the maid whom she had met several times, then lowered her head and walked back to her room and locked the sliding door of the balcony.

Mudan didn't observe this ordinary person for long.

In the room;
Ling Tong's heroic bust turned into a moving image.

She had obviously just woken up. There were several sensors attached to her robotic arms. She was wearing a dark green short-sleeved shirt and simple shorts. Her long black hair was draped behind her, and there were some marks from the pillow on her swan neck.

Lingtong licked her dry lips with the tip of her tongue inconspicuously, and her whole body exuded a lovely temperament.

It's rare to see Lingtong at this moment.

She lacked her usual strength and seriousness, and had a rare laziness that made her not want to get up. Her pair of black eyes swayed slightly, and her high nose twitched gently a few times.

"Did I bother you?" Ling Tong asked.

"Isn't it obvious that I am disturbing you?" replied the Taoist priest with a smile.

Lingtong grabbed a tissue from the side and rubbed his eyes, then took out some kind of refreshing spray and pressed it twice, quickly regaining his spirits, then lowered his head and sighed.

"What happened?" Wang Jixuan wondered, "Didn't they say they won the battle? And there were very few casualties."

"It's not because of the war."

Wang Jixuan immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.

She was actually sighing!

This frontline combat girl who never blinks in the face of danger is actually worried!
"Don't scare me," Wang Jixuan said jokingly, "You're almost getting wrinkles on your forehead."

Ling Tong didn't care about these, and just said: "The commander-in-chief talked to me in the evening."

"What to talk about?"

"Hero, commander, politician."

Wang Jixuan was confused: "What do you mean?"

"This is the Commander-in-Chief's successor plan."

Ling Tong summed it up succinctly:

“According to my own understanding, the commander-in-chief is to choose at least three successors.

“Heroes need to portray an image of justice to ordinary people and lead them to believe in the future and hope;

"A commander-in-chief must have the most outstanding military command ability, sufficient prestige in the army, and the courage to sacrifice everything for the overall situation at a critical moment;

"Politicians need to be smooth and stick to the bottom line of justice, and to integrate forces and resources from all sides.

“The commander-in-chief is playing these three roles by himself. What he means should be that he wants to train three successors in three aspects.

"I've become a candidate for the next generation's hero card."

Wang Jixuan pondered for a moment, and suddenly thought of what Fu Jian had said before...

Lingtong’s summary makes a lot of sense.

Fu Jian has been looking for an heir for fifty years, but there has been no result.

The success of the Devil Commander-in-Chief cannot be replicated. The powerful half-human mecha and the ruthless commander use their iron will, selfless dedication, and extreme ability to withstand pressure to protect human civilization and fight for the future of mankind.

The environment that humans will face next is still extremely harsh, and Fu Jian's successor must not be too weak...

To train three successors in three aspects is quite consistent with Fu Jian's character.

but……

Fu Jian will not collapse in the next ten years...

"Should I carve a soul-fixing ban for Lao Fu? Can I refine Lao Fu into a magic weapon in advance? However, Lao Fu's willpower is too strong, and I am only in the Return to Void Realm, so I may not be able to suppress him."

Wang Jixuan thought about this quickly and said with a smile, "This is a good thing. Do you agree?"

"I thought about refusing," Ling Tong explained simply, "but I was more afraid that my hesitation would disappoint him. He taught us half-human mechas that we must be decisive and believe in our combat instincts. I chose to trust my instincts at the time... Well, I agreed." Wang Jixuan said seriously, "That's great. Your charm is dazzling and you are very suitable to take on this responsibility."

Ling Tong leaned back in his chair: "Then, the commander-in-chief assigned me three tasks, all related to you."

"Is it related to me?"

"Complete the teaching of the first three changes of the sword formation in the D5 half-human mecha as soon as possible. This is the first thing to do."

Ling Tong looked aside:
"Secondly, I need to go on tours in various places and focus on showing my own charm. It would be best if you could watch the videos of these tours... Although I don't think I have any use other than fighting.

"The third thing should be a joke from the commander-in-chief."

"what?"

"We need to go on a few dates and gradually get to the point," Ling Tong turned to look at the projection screen and camera, "just consider it as completing the mission."

Wang Jixuan: ...

Good man, Old Fu, you are serious!

As expected of the commander-in-chief, he is ruthless and always keeps his word!

The Taoist priest changed the subject without leaving any trace: "Personal and official matters should be separated. You can deal with these matters when you have time... And I think you may have misunderstood the commander-in-chief's intention."

"why?"

“Heroes, commanders, and politicians may seem to be different, but in fact, they are interconnected.”

Wang Jixuan clicked his tongue:

“A hero who is not good at commanding an army, directing a battle formation, and winning the hearts of the people is just a powerful warrior, or a star in the army.

“Such a person is not worthy of being the next devil’s commander-in-chief.

“He should be training several successors in three directions. At the beginning, each successor will have his own focus and back up each other.

"When the situation requires it, there will always be someone who stands up and becomes the backbone of everyone, shouldering all the pressure and responsibility, and being able to decide the fate of mankind with just one thought, just like he is doing now.

"So, from now on, you can't think from the perspective of a military star, otherwise you will definitely fail this trial given to you by the commander-in-chief."

Lingtong's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

She nodded seriously, "That's right! This is a test!"

"I'm just talking nonsense, just listen to it casually."

Taoist Master Wang continued:

"You still have a lot to learn, and there's not much I can help you with.

“When will you be back?
"I can give you a deep massage now to improve your fighting power a little bit."

Now that he has entered the Return to Void Realm, he will naturally be able to help Ling Tong improve further.

Ling Tong's eyes showed a bit of yearning: "It will probably be a week later. Sister Wan has already started to arrange the schedule, and the battle lines are tight everywhere. I have to obey orders and join the battle at any time."

"Hasn't the Blade Beast's attack been repelled?"

"They are only retreating temporarily," Ling Tong explained softly, "If the blade beasts are compared to fists, then this fist has retracted to accumulate strength. It is estimated that Dawn will launch a new offensive."

"Well," Wang Jixuan sighed, "Now we are really facing external and internal troubles. The Psychic City wants to deal with us, and the Blade Beasts are also stepping up their offensive."

Ling Tong asked: "I saw the intelligence that you brought back a professor unexpectedly. Is this professor proficient in cutting-edge psychic energy infusion technology?"

"Well, she is quite amazing, in a sense," Wang Jixuan sighed sincerely.

"This could lead to a real psychic war."

"I've been thinking about this as well. I'll be busy for the next few days, trying to improve the defenses of Fort 76."

"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Wang."

Ling Tong made a rare joke and reminded:

"I analyzed the new intelligence before going to bed.

"In the City of Psychic Power, the fifteen-member council has reached a consensus. They want to force the six elders to express their views, so as to put full pressure on D5 and even go into all-out war.

"The Beast God's psychics have crystal cores in their bodies. Moreover, I discovered a detail in the battle footage that Mudan sent me."

Wang Jixuan asked in confusion: "What details?"

"Owner."

Taoist Wang frowned and said, "Let's be serious. There's no need to pursue this kind of excitement."

Ling Tong seemed to blush a little, and whispered: "This is information..."

"Cough," Wang Jixuan raised his hand to support his forehead.

A certain loyal wingman on the balcony almost laughed out loud.

"These Beast God Psychics are describing a being, calling that being their master."

Ling Tong adjusted his state and said quickly:
"Think about it carefully. If this master is only a king-level blade beast, is he capable of raising these psychics to S-level?"

Wang Jixuan stroked his chin and thought carefully.

In a sense, S-class psychics are comparable to ordinary king-class blade beasts.

——The destructive power of the former is far less than that of the latter, and the king-level blade beast controls a terrifying number of blade beasts of all levels, which is the most troublesome existence.

The Taoist priest asked, "How is the Pillar-level Blade Beast doing now?"

"I checked. The awakening level of the ninth pillar has risen to 26%. There is no obvious information exchange with the outside world."

"Who else could be the master of these Beast God Sect psychics?"

Wang Jixuan stood up immediately:
"I'll go interrogate them. There are six crystal cores here, and there are some residual souls inside."

"Remember to get more rest," Ling Tong reminded, "I'm going to go back to sleep for a while, and the information I sorted out here will be sent to Mudan."

"Good hero!"

Wang Jixuan hung up the call.

He casually put on a sports jacket, slippers and loose shorts, called Mudan and went out immediately, heading straight for the surface military camp.

In order to keep it secret, Wang Jixuan put on a mask and a sun hat.

This outfit is even weirder.

……

A few minutes later, outside Fort 76.

There was a sand dune about ten kilometers away from the military camp on the surface of the fortress. The sand sank slightly and the outline of a footprint appeared.

Soon after, footprints appeared on the sand, like a marching army of ghosts.

There was a man's voice that kept talking to these transparent figures in a way similar to voice transmission:

"Everyone, please be careful. We can't repair our equipment right now. We can only launch this sneak attack once. The damage rate of the holographic belt is too high. This kind of technological product is not reliable at all.

"Try to capture this traitor later. The master is very interested in it. If you can't capture it, kill it.

“Also, we must pay attention to finding the trace of the awakened spiritual practitioner. The master had previously suspected that humans had the help of a new awakened spiritual practitioner.

"Quick, everyone, get down, crawl on the ground, and try to avoid the other side's radar detection."

In the distance, the main surface camp of Fort 76.

Wang Jixuan took Mudan out of the elevator, and a group of soldiers who were approaching them stood up and saluted.
