Volume 5: The Destruction of the Gods Chapter 74: There are always things more important than life
Looking at the twisted space portal in front, Shen Jin's mind was fighting with the black and white villains. Xiao Hei said, "Let's go. We can get home in front. Our goal has been achieved. You have proved to everyone that you are a good lord who will not abandon your soldiers. That's enough! Look around you. Everyone's admiration for you is visible to the naked eye. There is no need to care about the people of Chuibing Country. After all, those who are not of our race must have different hearts! In history, we have helped their country more than once, but what happened in the end? Think about what they did in those years? Have you forgotten the facts written in the textbooks? I dare say that if you make that decision, not only will you not get any benefits, but even your subordinates will have opinions about you. Doing something that harms yourself and benefits others... Don't you think you are ridiculous?"
Xiao Bai's expression rarely turned serious: "Xiao Hei, this time... I don't agree with you. If it was the ghs things in the past, I could turn a blind eye, because it was just an ordinary temptation and choice, and it was not a bad idea to indulge some of my desires, because with our strength, those things were harmless. But this time, I'm sorry I can't agree with you!"
"Let me talk about the reality first. Have we become enemies with Shen Ji? This feud is not small, is it? We have killed so many people from Shen Ji one after another. Their hatred for Homeland No. 1 has reached its peak. I dare say that as long as they are sure that they can kill us in one fell swoop, they will definitely send troops to flatten Homeland No. 1 without hesitation. At that time... If our strength is not improved to a higher level, there will inevitably be a bloody battle. At that time, we may still win, but... it is not that easy to win. We attacked Shen Ji and used many of our own methods. We took advantage of the information gap. They don't understand our abilities. So we succeeded frequently, but... what about next time? What if Shen Ji has prepared for our [Transporter] and collective concealment ability? Can we still be so smooth? We don't know what strange superpowers they have. What if we can't know clearly about their next attack? By then, we will be the one who suffers from the information gap... No matter what, there will be a battle between us and Shen Ji! This time will come sooner or later! Leaving now will only postpone this time, giving Shen Ji a chance to breathe and time to figure out us, which will help the enemy! This is the first reason why we must destroy Shen Ji today!"
"Let's talk about our current advantage. Shen Ji must have been panicked after our 'Besieged on All Sides' strategy and secret attack just now. It's not an exaggeration to say that they are now afraid of enemies. Now is a good time for us to attack. We should combine the real and the fake, use our [Transporter] advantage, and fight a blitzkrieg with the opponent. After a few rounds, they will not be able to hold on. Besides! Don't forget that our teammates who came to help this time... Even if Hu Shou didn't come, they are already part of China's high-end combat power. They even called in Sun Can, who is also a system owner like you. His combat power... I think it will not be worse than Jingbian. There are also Daochang, Bao Gechuan, Zhu Dan... They haven't exerted their strength yet! In addition, there is a force that may be overwhelming. As long as he is in place, the difference in the number of people in this battle... will be completely reversed! The first effort will weaken the second, and the third will be exhausted. Now is a good time to make a final effort! This is the second reason."
"Finally, Xiao Hei, I want to say... In this world, there are always some things that are more important than life.
Have you ever thought about why we, as ordinary people who cannot be more ordinary, have the opportunity to get all this?
There are 6 billion people on Blue Planet. Why did the system choose us?
There is always one thing that makes us different from others!
Perhaps, we can give this answer today. 99% of people will leave, but we will stay today to clear the obstacles for the future of Home No. 1, overthrow the rule of the Gods for these ordinary people, and remove a tumor for the rotten blue planet!
There is always someone to do some things, and I think that person is... us!"
"By the way, Xiao Hei, do you still remember the first three months of the apocalypse? We were safe, but... I always felt that something was missing in our world. Staying safely underground for a lifetime, perhaps... we wouldn't be very happy, right? At the last moment of my life, looking at the zombies still wreaking havoc on the blue planet and the extraordinary people attacking each other, I think all that was left was regret and tears..."
Shen Jin glanced at the Rolex on his hand, a watch that could no longer give him any combat power, but he always wore it and never took it off.
Because there are eight big characters carved on it by Zhu Dan with his life’s will:
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
"But..." Xiao Hei was about to say something, but was interrupted by Shen Jin, "No buts, Sun Li, shut down the [Transporter]! We... haven't finished this battle yet!"
Shen Jin looked around at all his men and said forcefully: "Everyone, please... fight alongside me again, follow the way of heaven, and destroy the gods!"
At this moment, Shen Jin's spine was straight, and there seemed to be vast stars in his eyes. Everyone was unconsciously conquered by Shen Jin's aura. Even Li Zhe, an egoist who had already prepared a lot of reasons to refute, could not say a word at this time. He felt that his realm was definitely not as good as Shen Jin's.
Even though Shen Jin didn't say anything, but... the pity, determination, and enormity in his eyes made him feel ashamed.
"Shen Jin is a natural leader!" Li Zhe clenched his fists, his face flushed. He felt unwilling that he could not reach such a level, but he was also honored that he could find such a good lord!
He shouted at the top of his lungs: "Follow the way of heaven and destroy the gods!"
The others were also infected by Shen Jin, and everyone in this small base shouted in unison: "Follow the way of heaven, destroy the gods!"
The momentum is soaring to the sky, even stronger than when I first arrived!
Shen Jin connected to the [Nano Helmets] of the Taoist Priest, Zhu Dan, and Sun Can, and said, "Friends, we can't leave yet. We have to destroy Shen Ji first. Please...everyone prepare to attack with me!"
Taoist Priest: "Great kindness!"
Zhu Dan: "Brother, if you leave, I will stay here by myself..."
Sun Can: "You are the boss this time, you have the final say! Don't forget my armor, if possible... get a set for my brothers too, hahahaha!"
The troops from Home No. 1 and the three foreign aids formed a united front, and the resistance that Shen Jin had expected did not come.
Perhaps, when you choose the right thing, the whole world... will make way for you.
"I will be in charge of the next battle. I will be responsible for your lives!"
Shen Jin closed his [Quantum Helmet] and entered combat mode.
The others nodded vigorously. If there was anyone in this world who was qualified to be responsible for their lives, that person was their lord - Shen Jin!
"First step, push forward!"
Shen Jin's orders were transmitted to the [nano helmets] of foreign aid and each captain through the [quantum helmet]. Within the small island of Omotesando Island, their communications could be unimpeded and not restricted by ordinary signal interference.
The timely transmission of information and the enforcement of orders laid a good foundation for Shen Jin's command this time.
At this time, the pseudo-superhumans brought from Home No. 1 also joined the first phase of the work. Among them, Long Taojia brought his construction team to assist Shen Jin in making the first phase of the layout. As a contemporary architectural master, he is not only good at building bridges and cities, but also has a deep understanding of many tactical bunkers. Before the end of the world, he wrote many papers on militarized architecture, which were also included in the SCI source journal.
With his help, Shen Jin's tactical ideas were put on paper and conveyed to the ears of each captain.
…
At the Shenji headquarters, everyone's faces looked extremely grim. Not only did they fail to rescue Jingbian, but Xing Lingmin was also stolen away by someone.
The female clerk in charge of intelligence hesitated for a while and said tentatively: "I think we should look at everything from a positive perspective. Who knows, maybe Master Jingbian is already dead? Even if the other side wants to exchange hostages with us, it will be a trap. Now... at least we don't have to worry about the psychological game when exchanging hostages with the other side!"
Everyone looked at her as if they were looking at a crow.
"Who! Who let her in again? Get her out now!"
"Ah this! I'm just proposing a reasonable hypothesis... Ah~! Don't bother me! I'll walk on my own..."
unlucky!
Everyone spat inwardly.
But I can't think too much about this. If I think about it... what the woman said is not without reason. Although there is a video sent by the other party, it was a video at night. Jingbian has been caught by the other party. Looking at the size and ability of the earth giant, with a slight pinch, there won't be even a complete bone left of Jingbian...
Murata, wearing a hood, sighed faintly: " Forget it, it's useless to think about it now. We know too little about them. This person should not be from the Tianluodiwang. It looks more like a civilian supernatural organization. They have gone to so much trouble to set up this trap just to save Xing Lingmin. It seems that this woman has a high status in their eyes... Since their goal has been achieved, they should withdraw soon. Starting from tomorrow, we will do our best to track these people and get their information. Spies? Haha~! No one knows how to be a spy better than the ninjas of Shenji. After we understand their strengths and weaknesses, we will make plans. This debt... They must pay with blood!"
Everyone nodded in unison. It was indeed not a good decision to attack at this time. Fortunately, the main force of Shen Ji was not damaged too much. Only the six warriors and the 1,200 extraordinary people they led died.
Be patient for a while, and you will pay back double later!
The top leaders of Shenji reached a consensus.
Then the woman who had just been kicked out of the Intelligence Department suddenly opened the door and shouted, "Boss, it's bad! Those Chinese didn't leave, they... pushed their positions forward! Our civilians were arrested in large numbers! All industrial factories were occupied, they want to... occupy the entire Biaoxi Island!!!"
Murata stood up suddenly, black mist emerged from his body and began to fluctuate wildly!
“This is too much!!!”
He was anxious, he was anxious!
…
Those who are righteous have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous have few supporters.
Shen Jin now not only represents Home No. 1, he also represents the majority of the people of Chuibing Country and the extraordinary people in the opposition.
Among them, the boss of the opposition supernatural beings, Hisao Kojima, has met with Shen Jin under the arrangement of his subordinates. He is the leader of the opposition faction and the only third-level supernatural being in this faction.
He represented the opinions of most of the opposition extraordinary people and ordinary people in Biosei Island. When he knew that these Chinese people were helping them to destroy Shenji, he was so excited that he almost knelt down to Shen Jin, and kept saying: "The Chinese people's minds... are the broadest! Since I was a child, my grandfather taught me the real history. The country of Chuibing can be what it is now, and it is absolutely inseparable from the help of China in the past. During the Tang Dynasty, our country went to conquer the country of Bangzi. The Tang Dynasty's navy went out and instantly wiped out the warships that we thought were powerful. Logically speaking, the powerful Tang Dynasty at that time only needed to take the navy all the way south to occupy the entire Chuibing Country, but... the peace-loving Tang Dynasty did not do so. Instead, it accepted our envoys to the Tang Dynasty, taught us culture, and gave us generous rewards, allowing our national ideology to develop rapidly, and the impact was far-reaching... and even continued to this day. My grandfather was executed by the emperor for taking the lead in opposing the wrong war launched by the country in the last century, but our family has always believed that... our two countries should have been friends for generations! It was so in the past, it is so now, and it will be so in the future!"
Hisao Kojima used Chinese, and he spoke it very fluently, which added a lot of credibility to his words.
This is to express his position, asking Shen Jin to help him destroy Shen Ji and support him to take the throne.
Shen Jin was very satisfied with his statement, because his only concern was that... he had saved an ungrateful person. At least this Xiaodao Shangfu was sensible.
The two hit it off and began to advance Shen Jin's strategy.
With the help of Hisao Kojima, Shen Jin's advancement speed increased. Wherever he went, the people surrendered and he encountered no resistance at all. Some places even received news from Hisao Kojima in advance and had already brought people to welcome him. They also organized the women in the settlement to line the road to welcome him!
The first step went more smoothly than Shen Jin had imagined!
Biaoxi Island has an area of 289 square kilometers, most of which is tropical native rainforest and mangrove swamps. Before the apocalypse, there were only tens of thousands of permanent residents here, and it was very deserted. Therefore, there were few zombies here after the apocalypse. It was occupied by the Chuibing people who came from all over the place, killed the zombies, and stayed here forever.
The core urban areas of this island are occupied by the people of Shenji. The environment in other places is not good and is not suitable for living. Many ordinary people can only cut down rainforests and build houses in them to live in. The living environment is very poor.
It only took Shen Jin and his men two hours to occupy all the rainforest areas outside and drive their troops to the outskirts of the most prosperous urban area on Biesi Island.
This place is firmly controlled by Shenji.
The four forces of Shen Jin, Taoist Priest, Zhu Dan and Sun Can have surrounded the city from four directions.
Inside, Shenji's people were on high alert, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Shen Jin stood under a sturdy primitive tree, squinting his eyes and said, "The edge of the city is the farthest distance their blood-red formation can reach. We can't easily step in..."
The strength of the great formation of the gods is indeed very high. It may require the concentrated power of No. 1 Home and all of Sun Can, the Taoist priest, Zhu Dan and others to break it.
"Then, let's start the second step of the plan... siege the city!"
