"Is that Yuzhang dude in here?"
In the prison of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, a man in a well-ironed suit with a body as thin as a bamboo pole came to the door of a single cell and asked the staff member guarding here.
"Who are you?
Why are you asking this? "
The guard asked cautiously. At the same time, he touched the wall beside him. There was a button there. With a light press of the button, dozens of lasers would pierce through everything in front of the guard.
"Don't be nervous. Is there anyone in this world who dares to cause trouble in Yan Jing City's Commission for Discipline Inspection?"
The skinny man would smile and raise his hand, projecting a document from his personal terminal in front of the staff member.
"So you're from the Sword Pavilion!" The guard relaxed. "You were sent by Sword Immortal Tian Heng?"
"That's right!"
The skinny man nodded. "It's good that you know this. You can't tell anyone else!"
"I understand!"
The guard said tactfully. His many years of experience working in the Commission for Discipline Inspection told him that the laws and regulations were effective most of the time. However, when faced with a powerful figure like a Sword Immortal, the laws and regulations were ineffective.
"Very good. Sword Immortal Tian Heng has ordered that he wants to ask this Yuzhang dude some questions. Open the cell door," the skinny man said to the guard.
The bamboo-like man said to the staff. Without saying anything, the staff immediately knocked on a certain position on the cell door five times in a certain rhythm, and the cell door opened with a click.
"Who are you?
Are you here to interrogate me?
Where's my Sha Sha? "
Feeling the cell door open, Koo Rok-in, who had been locked up for more than ten hours, finally saw a living person.
He immediately stood up. In his excitement, he looked at the skinny man cautiously.
Behind Koo Rok-in was a girl who looked exactly like Yue Wang.
However, this girl seemed to be deliberately keeping a large distance from Koo Rok-in.
"Here!"
The skinny man didn't say anything. Instead, he took out an object about the size of a pocket watch from his pocket and threw it in front of Koo Rok-in.
Then, the skinny man left the cell without looking back. The cell door slammed shut once again.
"What is he trying to do?
What did they do to my Sha Sha! "Koo Rok-in foolishly said to himself.
He squatted down and picked up the pocket watch-sized thing left behind by the bamboo-like man.
He held it in his hand and took a look. It seemed to be an electronic device with a screen inside.
There was no other display on the screen, only 1/6 of the circle that kept extending outwards.
"Why does this look like a communication signal?" Upon seeing this symbol, Ju Lvren's heart jolted, and he suddenly thought of something.
He immediately checked his personal terminal. Sure enough, there was no communication signal on his personal terminal. At this time, the communication signal had quietly become full.
"This is something that can break through the network blockade and allow me to contact the outside world!
Is that person here to help me? "
No matter what this person's purpose was, if he could get Koo Rok-in to contact the outside world, then he could get help from Yuzhang City, so that Yuzhang City could get the latest news about him at any time.
Therefore, the first thing Koo Rok-in did after recovering his communication was to get ready to contact his direct superior, the Dean of Yuzhang University, Roaring Tiger Sword Spirit.
However, the strange thing was that although the communication signal was full, when Koo Rok-in broadcast his communication signal, it still indicated that Koo Rok-in could not unplug it and the communication was restricted.
"Could it be that this communication is aimed at the network?"
When Koo Rok-in thought of this, he immediately took out a game helmet from his dimensional pocket … After thinking about it, Koo Rok-in suddenly took out another game helmet and handed one of the game helmets to King Yue Gou Jianjian who was standing behind him.
"King Yue, staying here is too boring. Why don't you enter the game and experience the wider world!" Koo Rok-in suggested.
King Yue Gou Jianjian was silent for a moment. Then, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the game helmet in front of him.
…
"One last quest left!" It was now the 18th hour of the dungeon.
Out of the 40 quests on the quest list, only one was left uncompleted.
It was a rescue quest. A group of construction workers from Yanjing City to Yuzhang City had suddenly disappeared when they approached Yuzhang City. The two Famed Swordsmen who were protecting them had also disappeared.
That was why Zhe Tian Jiandi hoped that Guhan could at least determine whether the workers were dead or alive.
If they were dead, then bury them on the spot. If they were alive, then rescue the workers.
Without a strategy, this quest was very difficult to complete because the workers were hidden in a very secluded place. Unless a lot of time was spent searching, it was impossible to find the workers.
Fortunately, with the efforts of the senior players, the hiding places of the workers had been clearly marked. Guhan easily found the missing workers in a hidden valley.
There were originally more than 20 workers, but now there were only 12 of them left.
The reason for their disappearance was simple. One of the two Famed Swordsmen who were escorting them had gotten off the bus to pee. As a result, he was ambushed by Yuan Kou who was hiding in the bushes. The Famed Swordwoman did not even have the chance to release her swordwoman before she was bitten on the buttocks by the poisonous Yuan Kou. The poisonous venom was injected into his body, and in less than 10 seconds, the Famed Swordman was dead.
The remaining Famed Swordman was a good friend and brother to the poisoned Famed Swordman.
He naturally wanted to avenge his dead brother. In the end, after a fight, he died heroically in the hands of Yuan Kou.
The escorted workers saw that the situation was not right and began to flee frantically. They were chased by Yuan Kou all the way to this valley. The others either died in the hands of Yuan Kou, or were left behind in the middle of their escape. No one knew where they ran off to.
The following plot development was not something that could be described in detail.
The poisonous Yuan Kou Three-winged Sparrow Python jumped out when Guhan led the workers away and started a battle with Guhan that was not very thrilling. In less than 10 seconds, the Three-winged Sparrow Python returned to the dimensional whirlpool, and two Swordwomen dropped from its stomach.
These two Swordwomen were man-made. If they were natural Swordwomen, these two Swordwomen would follow the call of the Sword Garret and automatically fly back to the Sword Garret in Yanjing City. They would not stay in the stomach of this Yuan Kou.
Next was the boring process of escorting these Swordwomen back to Yuzhang City. Throughout the journey, Guhan did not say a word, appearing very cold.
However, the workers were still chattering non-stop. Amidst these gossips, Gu Han actually heard something that made him a little shocked.
First, these workers were not proper Yanjing people, but some prisoners in Yanjing City. They were sent to Yuzhang City by Yanjing City to work for Zhe Tian Jiandi, so their words were full of hatred for Yanjing City.
And it seemed that they did not know that Guhan and his group were prisoners. The rest of the workers that Guhan saw on the construction site were almost all prisoners in Yanjing City.
According to these workers, ever since Yuzhang City started work, 70% of the prison guards in Yanjing City were unemployed.
Second, according to all the history books, Zhe Tian Jiandi and Yanjing City were basically on good terms. There were only some small conflicts and unhappiness, but they were all harmless things. Overall, Yanjing City gave full support to Zhe Tian Jiandi's construction of Yuzhang City.
But according to these workers, the higher-ups of Yanjing City wished that five or six desolate-level Yuan Kou could attack Yuzhang City's construction site at the same time, tearing the construction site and Zhe Tian Jiandi to pieces.
Moreover, Zhe Tian Jiandi's image in the hearts of the people of Yanjing City was terrible, as if Zhe Tian Jiandi had done something outrageous.
So, even though Yanjing City had thousands of all kinds of construction machinery, none of them were allocated to Zhe Tian Jiandi.
As for the manpower, materials, and resources that Zhe Tian Jiandi wanted, Yanjing City had always only given them 10% of the total.
Even when a group of people was allocated, they were mostly prisoners in Yanjing City, or some old and weak people who wasted food.
Third, and also the point that concerned Guhan the most.
According to historical records, this should be the tenth year after the battle between Zhe Tian Jiandi and Heavenly Court.
But according to these prisoners, Zhe Tian Jiandi seemed to have ended the battle last year and returned from Heavenly Court.
Moreover, the Heaven Shrouding Sword Emperor didn't charge in majestically like what was said in history. He didn't charge in majestically and return with a similarly majestically. He didn't even have a single hair on his body. Instead, he escaped with severe injuries.
What made Guhan even more incredulous was that Zhe Tian Jiandi's Yuantu Avici Twin Swords were actually broken in this battle. Zhe Tian Jiandi was no longer Zhe Tian Jiandi … Because Zhe Tian Jiandi's Immortal Sword Mothers were Yuantu Swords. He had only evolved the two Immortal Sword Mothers into Emperor Sword Mothers after defeating the Avici Sword's wielder.
Therefore, after the Yuantu and Avici Dual Swords were broken, the Heaven Covering Sword Emperor could not even be considered an Immortal Sword Rank sword wielder. Strictly speaking, he was just a Spirit Sword Rank sword wielder.
These prisoners also angrily expressed that even if a Great Grandmaster was reborn, an Emperor Sword level Sword Lady would not be able to repair it. This Heaven Covering Sword Emperor could only be a Spirit Sword level sword wielder for the rest of his life, yet he still had the nerve to shamelessly boast about learning how to build a city from a real Sword Emperor, causing them to die together with him.
A broken Emperor Sword couldn't be repaired … This was the case seven hundred years ago, and it was still the same seven hundred years later.
The Celestial Extinguish Sword had been broken for more than nine hundred years. Countless Great Grandmasters who led an entire era had spent their entire lives trying to repair this Emperor Sword Mother, but in the end, it was all for naught. No one had succeeded.
Later on, a Great Grandmaster suggested that if they wanted to repair the Emperor Sword Mother, they had to use a Dimensional Crystal of a purer quality … In other words, even Emperor Sword Mothers couldn't meet the requirements of repairing the Emperor Sword Mother. Only by finding a Dimensional Crystal that surpassed Emperor Sword Mothers could they repair the Emperor Sword Mother.
But it took two to three hundred years to find an Emperor Sword Mother. An existence that surpassed Emperor Sword Mothers … Did something that didn't even have a name really exist in this world?
