Monsters Will Die if They Are Killed

Su Zhou knew very well that the Soul Abyss Server was just a private task entrusted to him by Yan Sheng. It was theoretically illegal. If the relationship between Li Sheng and Yan Sheng was not good, Su Zhou would not be allowed to bring this thing forward. If he goes to the Qingqiu secret realm... he can only bring it in using his own personal space. It's such a simple matter. It's just that the follow-up is a bit troublesome, but as the world's number one person, Su Zhou is not afraid, but he doesn't want to cause meaningless conflicts.

"If you really cared about laws and rules, you would hide that thing better."

In response, the gray-haired old man glanced at Su Zhou's bulging, icosahedral pockets with no cover at all, and then sighed deeply: "How could I not know what that kid Wu Chongwen (Yansheng) is thinking? ...But since he asked you and you agreed, then I will pretend that I can’t even see him.”

"What's more, this is only 'theoretically' illegal."

Saying this, the old man raised his hand in a complicated mood and stroked his beard: "You see, if we want to drive our spaceship, we also need his skills. What's more, if it weren't for the revival of spiritual energy, everyone's lifespan would have been extended. , do you think who would stop him from doing research on 'Electronic Hades'? Even if his research has serious hidden dangers, no one will stop it."

Su Zhou looked at Li Sheng's head of black and white gray hair, and nodded thoughtfully: "One thing to say, it's true."

Risheng is already 98 years old, and three years ago, at the beginning of the revival of spiritual energy, he was already 95 years old.

According to the concentration of spiritual energy and cultivation at that time, Li Sheng was also considered to be in his twilight years, and he basically had only a few years to live.

If, at that time, there was an electronic underworld to extend his life... this old man would definitely give the green light to this research.

"Actually, you see, the age of the thirty-six saints of our generation are basically old men in their sixties or seventies. Although Wu Chongwen looks young, he is still eighty years old, and Zhang Qingyun (Taoist saint) is about the same - I’m not afraid to tell you, a young man, that after all, you will definitely be a saint in the future.”

Sitting on a chair in the laboratory nearby, Li Sheng invited Su Zhou to sit down as well. After the young man sat next to him, the old man took out a pipe from his arms. He did not light the cigarette, but just held it in his mouth. He said vaguely: "If the spiritual energy is not revived, our current Holy Seat will gradually be replaced by a new generation in the next ten years. It is natural for the new and the old to replace each other. After all, returning to the academy to be the Supreme Elder is more comfortable than being the current head. More... Oh, you are not from a traditional extraordinary family, so you probably don’t understand the positions of head and elder, right?"

"I understand."

Su Zhou naturally understood. After all, reading online novels for so many years was not in vain, and each first-class academy was equivalent to an extraordinary lineage in ancient times, that is, a certain sect, one of a hundred schools. He also knew this in the world of Shenmu. The experience is very deep.

The supervision of the saints in Zhengguo is equivalent to the modern alliance of hundreds of schools. The thirty-six saints are the largest thirty-six sect leaders. They jointly rule this huge country, and the nature of extraordinary sects' pursuit of individual strength is also because of the The spiritual energy was cut off, and gradually transformed into the concept of pursuing truth and technology, becoming an almost academic-like structure now.

"It's good to understand... In short, I should have retired last year, but due to the turmoil caused by the resurgence of spiritual energy, this position needs an old man with senior qualifications and weight, so I have been unable to enjoy my retirement life."

Taking a long breath, the gray-haired old man said with a long look: "Being old is a terrible thing. You will not be able to smoke or drink. After a lifetime of research, you will become restless or inexplicable urgency. Under the pressure of approaching death, you will feel inexplicably anxious and unable to calm down and think... So even if you don't want to, you still have to retreat when you have to, who says you are not capable enough?"

"But now, the spiritual energy has revived, and people's lifespans have begun to double. As a result, if someone goes up, they may not want to come down... In this way, the normal replacement of old and new will be affected, and classes will begin to solidify... "

"Oh, immortality, for a civilization, is it a blessing or a curse..."

Li Sheng's careless sigh made Su Zhou unable to help but remain silent.

Immortality... is so similar to immortality.

The same Baijia, scenes of the world of sacred trees flashed through the young man's mind, and he thought of Zhou Buyi, his friend who had been secretly influencing civilization for hundreds of years.

An immortal ruler is a blessing or a curse for a civilization...

For a moment, there was a strong emotion that made Su Zhou want to say something.

And he did say it.

"Immortality is not a mistake, but it is to curb the birth of new blood and solidify the class."

"As for the mistakes, I will correct them - anyway, I feel that no matter now or in the future, you will not be able to defeat me. I should be able to drive away a saint who is unwilling to come down."

Saying this, Su Zhou lowered his eyes. His mood was a little complicated, but when he raised his head, his tone had returned to normal: "Believe it or not, I am not interested in this kind of right. The reason why I am willing I joined Zhengguo's official system just because I can have a name and do what I want to do legally."

Li Sheng looked at Su Zhou in shock. The pipe in his hand was not aimed at his mouth, but was pointed at his chin.

Following the light emitted from the shell of the scientific research ship, the old man looked Su Zhou up and down seriously, then turned his head and looked at the ceiling.

"I wanted to say just now that if you put your words out there, you brat, you would definitely be suppressed by a few small-minded guys - but then I thought about it again, who can suppress you? So I had nothing to say for a while."

Talking to himself like this, Risheng even chuckled when he said this, and then he laughed louder and louder. He even hit the table with his pipe and made a "bang bang" sound: "Hahahahaha, you can actually think so far. , thinking so biasedly - Su Zhou, Su Zhou, what I meant by that was that I, an old man, will retire in a few years. If you don't mind, would you like to take over? Lecturer's seat."

"After all, I know very well that your academic level in extraordinary aspects is actually very high. The paper you published last time on 'On the Correlation and Transformation of the Five Elements Attributes and the Four Elements' has caused great repercussions all over the world. A few years, you’re definitely qualified.”

but now.

The old man stopped laughing, his expression gradually calmed down, and returned to seriousness. Li Sheng's black eyes looked into Su Zhou's dragon pupils, and he said softly: "You don't know, do you? The name of the Holy Seat, for example Names like 'Tao Sheng' and 'Li Sheng' are not holy names made up haphazardly to deify us managers."

"It is part of the great formation of the country called 'Eternal Peace'. It means the wish of all the people for 'peace' in the three hundred years since the founding of Jeongguk. It is the sage who founded the country of Jeongguk and is used to restrain it." The 'law' of those who came after."

"No one can occupy this position and not leave it when there is a better successor - because that means that Zhengguo's three hundred years of accumulated aspiration will come back to bite him, and his mind will completely fall into 'Infinite'" , and endure a punishment that no one knows how terrible.”

"Then..." After hearing this, Su Zhou suddenly became confused. He asked with some confusion: "Then Li Sheng, why did you tell me that 'immortality' is important to civilization..."

Su Zhou was really confused at first, but how smart is he after eating several wisdom fruits? Soon, the young man figured out the true meaning of what Li Sheng said before.

"……it's me."

After muttering in a low voice, Su Zhou's expression became complicated. He and Li Sheng looked at each other, their eyes intertwined: "You are actually worried about me."

"Those words sound like they are implying some decrepit saints... But in fact, you are worried. Worried that I will become that kind of person."

"Um."

Li Sheng simply nodded, and withdrew his gaze. He stared at the pipe in his hand: "Actually, it shouldn't be said so clearly. It should be more gentle and subtle - but your strength is getting stronger too fast. We I can’t even see through it…”

"Su Zhou, you are destined to be an immortal god in this world, and even become a being comparable to the former Heavenly Lord. Even if the spiritual energy is cut off, you will still be the Lord forever. The power accumulated by Zhengguo for three hundred years is indeed huge, but you will suffer from it almost every day. Is there a sudden increase in the will power that you don't know the source of? In the future, the 'Eternal Peace' formation will not be able to stop you at all. "

"Are you worried about our decay?"

"We should be worried about your decay."

If you want to go against the ideals of the forefathers who founded the Zhengguo... I'm afraid it won't be difficult in the future.

Li Sheng didn't really say the last words, but Su Zhou, who had a free mind and could listen to his heart, could understand what the other party meant.

"No, you are worried..."

Blinking, the young man had already thought of how to refute, but before that, Li Sheng shook his head. He stood up from his seat and walked towards the exit of the laboratory: "This matter is essentially groundless worry, so don't talk about it. After all, you haven’t inherited the holy throne yet, so if you start thinking about what will happen to you in the future, you are really scaring yourself.”

"It's just that compared to the Holy Seat, the position of 'National Envoy' of old man Liu Li may be more suitable for you - I personally think so."

"You have all considered it to this point. I am afraid you really want to grant me the position of Holy See in a few years."

In response to this, Su Zhou naturally stood up and followed. He walked behind Li Sheng, an elder, and complained: "Can't you just tell me? Isn't my behavior from beginning to end always polite, gentle and elegant?" , be friendly and treat others with kindness?”

"Su Zhou, the cultural tradition of Zhengguo people is modesty and tact."

"You mean you want me to praise myself in a roundabout way? I can't do that."

"Ha, I just like your personality, it means it's hard to hide even if you want to be a villain."

Leaving the underground laboratory of the Bureau of Discipline and Discipline with a smile, and after visiting the scientific research ship, Su Zhou and Li Sheng seemed to have not had any in-depth conversations.

After they returned to the Daoji Bureau headquarters on the surface, they said goodbye directly.

The time to explore the Qingqiu secret realm was determined to be September 1st.

And just after Su Zhou left, Li Sheng returned to his office, and Yan Sheng's voice came from the agent terminal.

【How about it. 】

He said: [What was the result of your exchange? 】

"It's a mess."

Looking at the night view of the city full of neon lights, Li Sheng said without mercy: "But one thing is true - this brat is really unscrupulous. As long as there is something he thinks is wrong, he will definitely take action. Change that...and that, like a young man, I like.”

"But in other aspects, I didn't see through it at all... The power of wish on Su Zhou's body was as thick as a wall of gold. I couldn't tell whether he was telling lies or the truth, even if I used the most direct Even though he was stimulated by his words, he still didn’t reveal any flaws.”

At this point, Li Sheng was also puzzled. He took out his pipe, and this time he actually stuffed it with tobacco and started smoking: "Where did those wishes come from? Could it be that they inherited the name of their ancestors?"

Exhaling a puff of green smoke, the old man looked serious: "It's like the Xuanwu White Tiger family has inherited the people's wishes for these mythical beasts from past generations... However, the dragon 'Zhu Zhou', before the boy Su Zhou said it, he could not understand it at all. No one knows, so he probably doesn’t have the willpower..."

[In fact, there is evidence that Zhu Zhou should be a real divine dragon, but it is very rare in the Central Divine Court, that is, on the earth - at least this is what the divination of the Tianji Hub told me. 】

Yan Sheng chuckled, and he could see that although Li Sheng said nothing, he was very satisfied with the outcome of that exchange - he was obviously willing to support Su Zhou.

In this case, there is no need to talk too much nonsense: [That’s it, thank you for your support. 】

"Go ahead, go ahead, tsk, if I didn't want to retire at the age of 100 and break the historical record of the country, why bother with you juniors..."

The conversation with the Bureau of Discipline Inspection came to an end.

At the same time, Su Zhou had returned to the Tiandu Security Bureau headquarters.

After returning here, he walked directly to his office.

In the office, Tang Yuan, who is Su Zhou's secretary, is carefully processing official documents at another table - because Su Zhou won't stay here for a long time, there is no need to separate a second office, they share it.

In recent years, Tang Yuan has been tutoring in relevant academies after work, and Su Zhou is also willing to use his own strength to open doors for his subordinates and find some good tutors for him, so these Over the years, under Tang Yuan's own diligence and good educational resources, he has also developed extraordinary high-level strength, and has an excellent foundation. With a little bit of hard work, there is still the possibility of further advancement.

"Captain, you are back."

Noticing Su Zhou's arrival, Tang Yuan laughed. He stood up and moved forward with the official document that had been processed: "Here is a report on the national joint anti-poaching operation. There are many merchants willing to sponsor. I have already Once the order has been sorted out, you can sign it after you read it later and confirm it.”

With that said, Tang Yuan presented the stack of official documents to Su Zhou.

"Very good, well done."

Nodding, Su Zhou accepted the stack of reports. He glanced briefly, then stared at the other person, and said in an unquestionable tone: "By the way, on September 1st, you will accompany me to explore the Qingqiu Secret Realm. You can start preparations now."

"OK."

Without thinking, under Su Zhou's gaze, Tang Yuan agreed immediately.

However, after a while, the pale young man's face suddenly became even paler: "Huh?"

"Eh?! (confused)"
