Resurrection Empire

This time, with the help of two helpers, Ren Zhong struggled with the liquid metal faceless robot for nearly ten minutes.

Compared with the last time when he stood up in three minutes, he has made great progress, but he still has regrets.

Ren Zhong tried many times using the interval that Song Mu'en and Song Mu'en fought for, but still had no way to use the membrane force field. He could only collect a lot of energy reaction data using different energies and live bombardment.

As for liquid metal, he also analyzed a lot of new parameters.

Unfortunately, the parameters are still only at the level of parameters and have not been transformed into actual results.

Even with an academic level that is not bad, there is no way to summarize any rules through these messy parameters.

In addition, before his departure, Amethyst Mining's state-level laboratory failed to produce any useful results.

These former colleagues worked hard and even used a large amount of black technology knowledge related to materials science purchased by Amethyst Mining from the knowledge ball of Yersen Bank, but they got nothing.

Obviously, the robot configured by Elder Frozen for Bai Qiu belongs to high-level black technology blocked by the empire.

The Empire does not intend to teach the Origin Star humans such bottom-of-the-line things.

This was within Ren Zhong's expectation. It's both good news and bad news.

The good thing is that this means that if he can really decipher the characteristics of liquid metal and reproduce it, it means that he has mastered cutting-edge materials technology that exceeds the highest level of the association, and he has gained a great advantage that no one else has. Killer weapon.

The bad side is naturally that the difficulty of this matter is beyond the scope.

But it is a good thing that the difficulty is beyond the standard. If someone is really not afraid that things are difficult, they are afraid that it is not difficult enough.

"The easier it is to do something, the less meaningful and less fulfilling it will be after it's done. Huh? It seems like things have become something I just put here and there? Forget it."

Ren Zhong stood up and dealt with his routine work at the war declaration press conference, while complaining in his heart.

After the press conference, he paddled as usual, pretending to read information, but in fact he first smoothed out his thoughts and strengthened his memory, and then acted as an information porter and knowledge amplifier for Ju Qingmeng, Qian Wangshen and Hua Yuelan.

In accordance with international practice, in addition to using many achievements from the previous timeline, Ren Zhong also placed higher demands on the equipment level of the Chifeng Armor, the shuttle, and Song Muen, whose strength he had initially recognized by fighting side by side once. .

In terms of strength, there is never the best, only better.

Regardless of whether you have something or not, you must move forward a little bit every time you resurrect.

This is the principle.

…

In the airship returning to Xinghuo Town, Chengde was invited into his conference room alone. It was time to have a frank talk.

There is no doubt that although he has become a loner, Yu Chengde cares about family ties very much.

In the small alloy room, with white lighting and a faint blue glow on both sides of the solid wood desk, Ren Zhong sat opposite Yu Chengde.

The atmosphere was somewhat solemn.

Ren Zhong was weaving the language in his mind and thinking about the vocabulary.

The feeling of responsibility at this time is very strange.

As early as when he first came into contact with cryo-sleep, he had imagined a scenario in which his ancestors were younger than their descendants.

Ren Zhong also met Ying Hao, the "ancient man" from two hundred years ago, but he had never dealt with Ying Hao's descendants.

But he didn't have an intuitive and relatively natural perception of Ying Hao's identity as an "ancient man", and he was a little scratching his head and looking at things in the fog.

Now, while Ren Zhong looked at the strong and muscular Yu Chengde, he pictured Ma Dafu's current old appearance in his mind.

The strong contrast made his thinking slightly distorted, but this phenomenon existed objectively. He even couldn't help but imagine that one day in the future, he would wake up in the freezer, only to find that the people he knew were either old or had turned into dirt.

He even knew that this situation would happen sooner or later.

Because his "time" is more valuable than other people's time, to accomplish greater goals, he must extend his activity time as much as possible and extend the vertical radiation cycle of his influence.

But when he is sleeping and "hanging up", his career must be taken care of, supervised and continued to be promoted by trustworthy people.

These people are his "night watchmen."

Then, one day, he will have to say goodbye to these night watchmen who are close to each other in life and death one after another, just like Ying Hao must have said goodbye to batch after batch of confidants in the past two hundred years. It was probably this kind of life experience that allowed Ying Hao, who was originally from a top class background, to gradually develop a stronger personality that regards human life as nothing.

After thinking about it carefully, Ren Zhong inevitably felt a little sad again.

Yu Chengde is also trying to figure out Ren Zhong's intentions.

As a powerful and top-level ninth-level mecha warrior, Yu Chengde is highly respected everywhere.

Even though he was once Ying Hao's domestic slave, Ying Hao still gave him enough respect. But now his allegiance suddenly changed. Yu Chengde didn't understand Ren Zhong's acting style, so he felt a little nervous.

Ren Zhong leaned back slightly, leaned on the back of the chair, and clasped his hands together: "Mr. Yu, you were from a hundred and thirty years ago. I know this. The president told me that you were once the most powerful general under his command. . I want to know, if we look at all civilizations, how did you rank?"

Yu Chengde said sincerely: "Except for the strong ones in the military department, I can be among the top ten."

Ren Zhong pretended to be happy, "Oh? Top ten? Who else is above you? Are they still alive now?"

Yu Chengde shook his head, "It's not very clear. But in my time, there should be a bloodline passed down. At that time..."

The last time I heard Yu Chengde tell this story, Ren Zhong didn't ask further questions. Now he changed his mind and said, "I'm a little curious, Mr. Yu, why did you want to kill that person? Can you elaborate?"

Yu Chengde was silent for two seconds, and then recounted his experience.

After listening, Ren Zhong did not express his position, but his expression changed several times, sometimes with emotion and sometimes hesitation, which made Yu Chengde feel a little uneasy.

After a long time, Ren Zhong sighed, "Mr. Yu, do you believe in coincidences?"

"Huh? Mr. Ren, please clarify."

"I happen to have heard something about your family. The truth of the matter may be different from what you know."

Yu Chengde raised his eyebrows, "Mr. Ren, what do you mean?"

"I think fate is a wonderful thing?"

"Mr. Ren, please speak directly."

Ren Zhong: "Shenzhen's branch of the Ma family is now in Yangsheng City. You know this, right?"

Yu Chengde gritted his teeth and nodded slowly: "I know. But Mr. Ying's big thing has not been accomplished, and the time for me to take action is not yet mature. After all, it is a huge family that has been developing for many years. However, one day..."

Ren Zhong interrupted Yu Chengde's oath, "As far as I know, today's Yangsheng Ma family also had a change of power about a hundred years ago when a concubine took over."

Yu Chengde: "It's not important, it has nothing to do with me. I just want them to die."

"No, it's important. Before knowing about you, Mr. Yu, I never thought that coincidences in the world could reach this level. But now that I think about it, it may be fate. Let me first tell you about your family, Mr. Yu. They were not tortured to death. That bastard of the Ma family did not torture your family to death, but protected them..."

Yu Chengde: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! They told me personally!"

"Sometimes what you see may not be true, let alone what you hear. I tell you clearly that your family has not been cut off. On the contrary, your great...great-granddaughter is still alive and well. If you want If you know more about the truth, just calm down and listen to me slowly."

"this……"

…

After a long time, Yu Chengde's pupils dilated, and he slumped on the seat with a face full of disbelief, muttering to himself, "This... this is so strange."

Ren Zhong sighed, "I think it's absurd and wonderful myself, but this is the fact. What happened to you is unfortunate, but fortunately, your family at least started well and ended well, and got a good ending. Your family was destroyed by the Ma family's bastard In your hands, the bastard of the Ma family finally died in your hands, which is retaliation for retaliation. Although there is no way to equate one life with hundreds of lives, the grudges have actually ended here. Although you may say this I hate to hear it, but the fact is that the bastard of the Ma family may not be as vicious as you think. To put it bluntly, people can't help themselves in the world. Your daughter and his son are in a free love relationship. , it can be regarded as a peaceful life, and it can be regarded as a blessing among misfortunes. As for the internal evolution of the Yangsheng Ma family, it is both accidental and inevitable. Your daughter has inherited your fighting talent, and then Combined with the talented genes of the Ma family's bastard, it's like a powerful alliance. Your grandson is a genius. Of course, the blood on your grandson's hands will probably only be more. There was once a city called the Nameless City..."

Ren Zhong finished telling him the causes and consequences of the Nameless City, and pushed the timeline to the recent past.

Yu Chengde was filled with emotion when he heard this, "One hundred thousand lives, overnight... Sigh. Where did I go wrong?"

Ren Zhong chuckled, "You and I both know it. But isn't this what the president wants to change now? You should know that, right?"

"Yes, I know. I agree with the president's philosophy. So I am willing to become his sword. Having said that, it is amazing that my grandson's descendants have established this Spark Town. Although for the sake of peace of mind and atonement, But only kind-hearted people will have the idea of ​​​​atonement."

Ren Zhong sighed, "Indeed, there are thousands of towns under my rule now. I have also dealt with at least tens of thousands of towns-level administrative citizens. I can only say that without my restraint, people with conscience will Very few. I think that in this kind of environment, conscience is likely to need to be inherited. Mr. Yu, you value love, righteousness and promises. Your mortal enemy, the concubine of the Ma family, is a villain who was forced to become a villain by reality. He has a conscience, but he just If you want to live a better life, you have to become the butcher knife of the association. In short, the advantages of your two personalities have come together and been passed down for several generations, becoming the innate personality tone of Ma Dafu and Ma Xiaoling. Of course. Now, not everyone in Yang Shengma’s family is like this, for example, Ma Dafu’s cousin Ma Da’an is not a good person.”

When Yu Chengde heard this, he laughed heartily and said happily: "It doesn't matter. Where are the father and daughter? Take me to see them quickly."

Seeing this, Ren Zhong knew that the big thing had been accomplished, and he felt much more relaxed and happy, "Don't worry, they're in Spark Town. I'll let you meet them then. You can talk among yourselves."

"Okay, very good! Thank you very much, Mr. Ren!"

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, they were escorted out of the conference room in Chengde.

After closing the door, Ren Zhong breathed a sigh of relief.

He also didn't expect that in such a gloomy era, he would use family ties to resolve a crisis and win over a top player.

After arriving in Xinghuo Town, Ren Zhong first asked Yu Chengde to communicate with the Ma family father and daughter on their own.

He arranged all the affairs step by step by himself.

When he returned to Xinghuo Town from Chenhui Mining Area, Yu Chengde was in the training ground personally teaching Ma Xiaoling, his descendant after an unknown number of generations, with hearty laughter and heroic spirit.

Ren Zhong watched from a distance, subconsciously comparing Yu Chengde at this time with his bitter, resentful and neurotic appearance in the previous timeline.

I can only sigh, emotion is so subtle, it only takes one thought to completely change a person.

Ma Dafu came up to him, his wrinkled round face was also full of red, and he sighed: "It's incredible. The mystery of fate and the chance of life really make people feel at a loss. I shouldn't live for a few more years, and I can die before I die. When I met Mr. Yu before, I was able to put an end to an obsession that had been passed down from my father's generation, and my life was considered complete."

Ren Zhong smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to be overly impressed, Old Ma."

"Why?"

"As long as he is alive, your lineage still exists. No matter where you are, no matter how long you wait, there will always be intersections. Either it will happen now, or next year, or in a few years, sooner or later. It's just a coincidence, It’s also inevitable.”

Ma Dafu was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "That's right. But it's better to be one day early than one day late, right?"

"Yes. Especially for me now." Ren Zhong responded.

Ma Dafu thought of the arrangements Ren Zhong had made in the town today and couldn't help but ask: "Now? Can you tell me what you plan to do?"

Ren Zhong grinned, "It's inconvenient."

Madafu curled his lips, "Then who will you take with you then?"

"Mr. Yu must be going, as well as Song Muen next to him."

Madafu: "What about my daughter?"

Ren Zhong: "It depends on herself."

In the previous timelines, although Ren Zhong walked alone on the road again and again, Ma Xiaoling always criticized it.

Now that the shuttle's loading capacity has been improved, she will indeed be as persistent as in the previous timeline and refuse to give up easily.

Madafu asked again: "If we take her with us, can we guarantee that she will come back alive?"

Ren Zhong decided to lie: "Okay."

Ma Dafu was not easy to fool, and he immediately sensed something was wrong, "How dangerous is it?"

"Okay, it's big." Ren Zhong shrugged.

Ma Dafu looked up at Ma Xiaoling, who was struggling to hold on under Yu Chengde's indiscriminate bombardment, and thought for a long time.

Ren Zhong originally thought that Ma Dafu would plead for mercy, and begged him that if Ma Xiaoling had to go with him, he would forcefully hold her down with orders.

But Lao Ma didn't do this, and just sighed: "There must be sacrifices. You can go alone. I want to force her to stay, but it seems that I am selfish. She is no longer a child, and I should respect her choice. . You must have the most thorough consideration, right?"

Ren Zhong: "Yes, everything is done with the highest goal of completing the task."

"Mission? Who else can give you a mission?"

"I found the mission myself."

"That's right." Ma Dafu agreed, "Mr. Yu said that my ancestors had a way to increase their strength in a short period of time."

Ren Zhong: "Yeah."

Ma Dafu: "Actually, I knew it a long time ago, but I never said it. It requires a special medium, which is hidden in my home. You can keep it safe for me and Xiaoling."

Lao Ma's tone sounded increasingly serious.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Ma Dafu, who had left and returned, placed a small box in front of Ren Zhong, "Because I am not a professional, I have never used the things inside. I only know that it is called electronically controlled crystal. How to use it? Just hold it in your mouth. It can completely merge a person's brain and mechanical armor into one. To put it bluntly, it turns a person into a half-machine like a beast. Most people cannot activate this ability. It is said that it is Shenxun Ma's The ancestors were written with special recessive gene fragments, which were not revealed until the birth of the Yangsheng Ma family branch."

Ren Zhong hummed, stretched out his hand to grab the box, and was about to pull it back.

He pulled it and found that it couldn't move much.

Madafu held things tightly.

Ren Zhong: "What's wrong?"

Madafu: "You should know that people will die after using this thing, right?"

"Know."

Madafu was a little sad, "But you still want to hold it?"

Ren Zhong smiled and said: "Lao Ma, I can't guarantee you that she will come back. But I can guarantee that if she doesn't come back, then I definitely won't come back either."

Madafu let go and handed the box to Ren Zhong.

After a long time, Lao Ma shook his head again, "It can't be like this. The group can lose anyone, but it can't live without you. If you can live, you still have to come back. Your life is the most important. I am too greedy and want to give She is free and respects her personal demands, but she kidnaps you, which is wrong."

"It's okay, it's human nature. I understand."

Ren Zhong patted Lao Ma on the shoulder.

"Yes. I'm going back first. Mr. Qian still has a lot of work that requires my coordination." Lao Ma responded and left alone.

After waiting for another half an hour, Ma Xiaoling was completely exhausted and walked over with only the armor holding him up.

She and Ren Zhong looked at each other, and then said without hesitation: "You must take me with you, I will become very strong. I won't lose to Zeng... Anyway, I won't lose to anyone here."

Ren Zhong grinned, "Okay."

Ma Xiaoling: "Give me the stuff."

"Take it."

it is more than words.

I understand the heavy responsibility.

What kind of leaders there are, there will be what kind of subordinates.

If you are a desperado yourself, you will gradually infect those around you to become desperadoes.
