Katu - #622 - Chapter 622 Prelude
Xi Ping led the way, and Chen Mu looked around curiously. During the time he left, Dongwei had changed a lot, and many places were built later.
The huge alloy door opened, and the passage had a significant downward slope.
“Underground?” Chen Mu asked curiously.
Xi Ping chuckled and said with some emotion: “Well, this underground warehouse is used to store some rare materials. Apart from me, only Alfonso knows about it. Didn’t the boss often say that there was a lack of materials in the past? Our Dongwei still does There is some energy, which I have collected through various calculations in the past few years. I thought it would be sealed forever… Now it can finally be put to use, I am so happy!”
Chen Mu didn’t know what to say, and felt warm in his heart.
After walking for about ten minutes, Chen Mu was a little surprised by the depth of this underground warehouse.
“We’re here.” Xi Ping entered his password into the password input machine in front of the warehouse door.
The door slid open silently, and Chen Mu followed Xi Ping in.
Countless iron racks were lined up, with all kinds of containers placed on them, and there was no end as far as the eye could see.
Chen Mu stood stunned on the spot.
At the entrance of Dongwei Academy, Alfonso and a large number of people were waiting anxiously.
Beside him, his students were whispering secretly.
“Who is coming today? Such a big battle?”
“I don’t know. The principal actually led the team himself. This has never been done before.”
“No, you see Master Ru Qiu is here too, Master Ren is also here.”
“Guess, could it be…”
At this time, the classmates on the side quickly reminded them: “Stop talking, it’s coming, it’s coming!”
All the students quickly shut up and looked up curiously.
“Sir!” Alfonso rushed out of the crowd impatiently. Following him was Ru Qiu. With tears in her eyes, she sobbed and shouted: “Sir!”
The students below were in an uproar!
gentlemen!
In Dongwei, there is only one person who can make Alfonso call him sir. In Dongwei, there is only one person who can make Ru Qiu call him sir.
They looked at Chen Mu with curiosity and admiration. He is not tall, not handsome, and looks as peaceful as an ordinary person. Many people can’t help but feel disappointed. Is this ordinary man the legend of the entire East Wei?
“You’re finally back! You’re finally back!” Alfonso, who was over middle-aged, was like a child, sobbing.
Ru Qiu even burst into tears.
Chen Mu’s nose also felt sore, but he held it back and said with a smile: “Okay, okay. Do you cry when you see me? Aren’t you chasing me away!”
Alfonso felt a little embarrassed, wiped away a few tears, and gradually returned to normal.
He suddenly patted his head, pulled Chen Mu and ran to an old man about sixty years old, and introduced: “This is Master Ren, the card maker of [Eternal Night]!”
“I don’t dare to be a master.” Nance Lane smiled humbly: “I will follow them in calling you sir. In the past few years, I have been studying the [calculation box] left by your husband. I really admire it!”
Chen Mu was startled. He didn’t expect that this old man was actually a master of card making. [Eternal Night] is in his hand, and he has long admired its maker. He didn’t expect that Renn was actually in the East Guard. He hurriedly said: “You’re flattering me. Compared to your level, I’m still far behind.”
Ren smiled heartily: “A master is a teacher, and age is not the mark.” After speaking, he stretched out his hand and said, “Let’s sit down inside and have a cup of tea. I happen to have a lot of questions to ask, sir. I couldn’t find anyone to ask before, but now But if you let me catch you, I won’t let you go until you clear up your confusion!”
“Haha!” Everyone laughed and walked towards the school.
Alfonso leaned close to Chen Mu’s ear and whispered: “We dug him from Faia.”
Chen Mu quietly extended his thumb, and Alfonso smiled again, looking proud. Ru Qiu, who was following the two of them, couldn’t help but smile.
Alfonso turned around, the pride on his face disappeared, and he looked solemn: “Sir, our current card production level is ranked among the best in the entire federation. We have absorbed many outstanding card makers, and most of them are from Frost Moon Hanzhou. Card makers have all been recruited by us. Most of the card makers in Faya have defected to us. In terms of card making, except for Zhongda Shufu, we are not inferior to anyone now. In terms of card equipment, no one can Compared to us.”
“Mr.’s [Computing Box] has never stopped running in the past few years. We have obtained a large number of detailed energy structures. In this regard, we are far ahead of others.”
“Sir, no matter what, we will help you win this battle!” Alfonso said firmly!
All the mid-level and high-level card makers and card weapon experts of Dongwei gathered at Dongwei Academy within one day. This transfer order was signed and issued by the Supreme Joint Conference of Dongwei.
The largest and most cutting-edge research project in the history of Dongwei has been officially launched!
In Zhongda Book Mansion, Xie Yanbai and Cao Zhengqiu were drinking wine and eating peanuts. Both of them came from poor backgrounds, and this delicacy was their favorite.
“Dongwei’s ambition is not small.” Cao Zhengqiu said while sipping a small drink: “It seems that they are planning to devote all their efforts to create a card for Chen Mu.”
“This is normal.” Xie Yanbai concentrated on destroying the peanuts on the plate without raising his head: “Without Chen Mu, Dongwei will die quickly. Look at Tang Hanpei, he didn’t attack Dongwei at all, but let him Development. He just calculated it correctly. Without Chen Mu, the greater the development of Dongwei, the closer it will be to disintegration. “
“Yes, why do you think there are monsters like Tang Hanpei in this world?” Cao Zhengqiu sighed, shaking his head.
“Monster? Ha! It makes sense. However, if we talk about monsters, I think Chen Mu is better!” Xie Yanbai stopped his chopsticks and showed a recalling look: “When I first met Chen Mu, he was weak. The team was weak. Hehe, later on, he scared the entire federation. Tang Hanpei is a monster, it’s normal, he is a guy who only appears in hundreds of years. The principal student of the Federal Comprehensive School, tsk tsk, Genzheng Miaohong, he is a monster No one is surprised when he gets up. But look at Chen Mu, where did he come from? An orphan in the common area. He has not gone to school yet and relies on one-star energy cards to survive. He has no resources and no connections, except The Rosenberg inheritance card in his hand had nothing on it, but he forcefully brought out a Dongwei. Jia Qiuxia was choked in his hand, and even a ruthless guy like Su Heiming couldn’t take it out. Stop him. Is he a monster or not?”
“Demon! It’s really a demon!” Cao Zhengqiu smacked his lips and said, “Hey, if you ask me, whoever wins should be crowned the best demon in the world.”
“Haha!” Xie Yanbai laughed. After a while, he asked: “Who do you like in this battle?”
“It’s hard to say.” Cao Zhengqiu put down his wine glass with a confused expression: “I have never understood why Chen Mu would challenge Tang Hanpei. A few years ago, although Chen Mu’s strength was not weak, he was obviously not at Tang Hanpei’s level. Could it be that Over the years, his strength has greatly increased? But it doesn’t make sense. Tang Hanpei has been ranked number one in the world for so long, and no one dares to touch it easily. Besides, Dongwei is now developing well and has elite soldiers and generals, so there is no need to challenge Tang Hanpei directly. ah.”
“I’m also very surprised about this.” Xie Yanbai had a serious look on his face: “With Chen Mu’s personality, he shouldn’t be so impulsive.”
The two fell into silence for a while.
In Xingyuan, Luo Xiju was shirtless, with an iron pot in front of him, fresh soup boiling, and he was sucking the fish head as if there was no one around. Beside him, Nick was sleeping in his bear pajamas.
Qingqing was dressed in plain clothes and sat quietly opposite Luo Xiju.
“Dongwei has a problem.” Luo Xiju said casually while making a harsh sucking sound.
“Is something wrong?” Qingqing showed an expression of confusion.
Luo Xiju casually threw away the fish head after sucking it, found a rag, wiped his greasy hands, and said: “What is the strength of Dongwei? In several aspects, the strength of Kawei is With a powerful commander like Bagnell, the economy is developing well. The advantage of jamming weapons is the foundation laid by Chen Mu back then. No one can shake it in the short term. As for the economy, judging from our intelligence , Dongwei’s economy has not had any problems, and its development trend is better than ours. Then only Bagnell is left. It is probably that there is something wrong with Bagnell.” Luo Xiju seemed to have thought of something terrible, and his eyes widened. With his eyes so small that they were almost invisible, he said in a fussy tone: “Is it true that Chen Mu owes Bagnell his salary?”
Qingqing sat firmly as usual, but her eyelids twitched. She resisted the urge to rush and beat the damn fat man and asked, “If this is the case, can’t Tang Hanpei see it?”
Luo Xiju chuckled and said lazily: “Of course Tang Hanpei can see that. But don’t forget, in addition to the wolf Bagnell, Dongwei also has Jiang Liang. This guy has great potential. I am optimistic about him. Chen Mu himself has a way of commanding. When the two sides collide, even if Tang Hanpei personally directs it, the Federal Comprehensive School has no chance of escaping unscathed. It will not be easy for Dongwei to chew on this hard bone without breaking a few teeth.”
Qingqing showed a thoughtful expression.
“Tang Hanpei is naturally willing to fight alone. Who is he? He is the best in the world, and he has no confidence in himself? He wants to kill Chen Mu, and the Eastern Wei will be in chaos. The hard bones will turn into loose ones. If you chew them, Click, click, as easy as chewing biscuits. Besides, don’t forget how Tang Hanpei got the position of principal? If he avoids the fight, hehe!”
Rossini’s words were as lazy as ever, but to the point.
Qingqing looked into the distance, her thoughts flying.
In the garden, there was an old man and a young man in his thirties.
Even if it is a casual daybed, the young man is sitting upright and meticulous. The straight military uniform was full of heroic spirit, but his brows were furrowed and his expression was gloomy.
The old man squatted on the ground, holding a small shovel to loosen the soil for the flower seedlings. Looking up at the unhappy Jiang Liang, Bagnell smiled.
He stood up and sat next to Jiang Liang.
“What? The Great Rift Base is too difficult? Can’t you stay any longer?”
Jiang Liang shook his head: “I don’t agree with the boss’s plan. It’s too dangerous. Moreover, the boss’s winning rate against Tang Hanpei is not high.”
“Haha, what else?” Bagnell raised his eyebrows: “You think you are useless? If you were more powerful, the boss wouldn’t have to take such risks?”
Jiang Liang remained silent, obviously being told the central issue.
“Growth takes time.” Bagnell sighed softly: “You have to be patient. And you have to trust the boss.”
“But……”
Bagnell interrupted Jiang Liang: “You probably don’t know how the boss came here in the past few years. The boss said that he fought almost every day and didn’t dare to sleep to death. I saw the wounds on the boss’s body, You can roughly imagine how the boss survived.”
Jiang Liang was stunned, obviously he didn’t know these things.
“If it’s a battle of odds, I’ll bet on Tang Hanpei to win. But if it’s a matter of life and death, I’ll bet on the boss.” Bagnell said calmly: “Tang Hanpei is the proud son of heaven, number one in the world, but he is too strong. Strong. There are very few people who can match him! Behind him is the Federal Comprehensive School, so there is no need for him to go into battle and fight on the front lines. He has experienced too few battles.”
“In the era when Mukka style flourished, it was said that there were many Taoist schools. They taught skills and had countless disciples.” Bagnell changed the topic and said something unrelated: “The masters in these Taoist schools are all powerful. Incomparable, especially those Taoist temples with a long history. Some of their masters have been practicing since they were young, and they have been practicing for decades, never stepping out of the temple. With no distractions, and extremely talented, they can often create many profound skills. But later, When the war came, these powerful masters did not survive.”
“Competition and life and death are two different things.” Bagnell said calmly: “This time, there is only life and death, no victory or defeat.”
Jiang Liang was completely stunned.
Looking at his proud disciple, Bagnell taught him sincerely: “The boss’s choice is right. He has used all his advantages. On the contrary, this is not what Tang Hanpei is good at. I am better than the other, and this is Isn’t it the most basic and core direction of our military deployment? Moreover, if the boss wins, no one will be able to challenge the position of overlord.”
After saying that, he turned around and said: “If you know you are not strong enough, then work hard. Don’t be afraid of losing, the commander will always win. Okay, just do whatever you need to do. These fights will kill you.” Please don’t bother me in the future.”
Jiang Liang’s eyes regained clarity, he saluted Bagnell seriously, and then turned around and left.
It wasn’t until Jiang Liang walked away that Bagnell stopped moving and let out a long sigh, his expression becoming more and more old.
“Old, I am indeed old.” Looking at the empty flowers and plants in the garden, he gently rubbed the magic card hanging around his neck with his hand, and murmured softly: “Celia, you said, you You want to grow old with me and plant a big garden together…”
Muddy tears fell silently.
