Light Barrier

Chapter 731

"Old man, can you tell me in detail... what is the Star Project?"@@@@

On the Kulong Snow Mountain, an old man and a young man were sitting on the ground.

The snowy night is very cold.

But the 【Lantern】 in Mr. Gu's hand stirred up the flying cold shavings several meters away. The two of them sat on a piece of clean snow, surrounded by only the weak breeze.

"You...really want to know?"

Gu Qilin put down the lantern, his eyes a little dazed.

...

...

Regarding the name Jingshanyan.

Nowadays, not many people in the Snow Forbidden City still remember it.

But twenty years ago.

During the years when Gu Changzhi achieved the status of fighting god and Nagano reached the top of the Five Continents, this name... was once a bright star on the top of the Nagano mountains. At that time, the three institutes had just been established.

Zhou Jiren, Gu Qilin, and Jingshanyan became the "supreme leaders" of the three institutes.

These three people are in charge of the "Judgment Office", "Command Office" and "Prison Office" respectively.

Twenty years later, the three people are in different situations.

Amid the fierce internal fighting in the adjudication office, Zhou Jiren's character made him choose to go to Nagano to avoid intensification of conflicts. While performing tasks in Dongzhou, he carefully cultivated his disciples, staying away from disputes and away from the control of the Grand Adjudicator. Some "power".

Gu Qilin sticks to Nagano, supporting the last breath of the old school of the Gu family. It seems that he is still in a high position, but in fact he is surrounded by enemies on all sides and is walking on thin ice.

Twenty years later.

Although the two of them were not very happy under the torrent of the general trend, at least they still retained their status as the top leaders of the three institutes.

But Jingshanyan is different.

His situation has changed drastically from what it was twenty years ago.

“Human beings have always been making different efforts on how to retain the ‘fire of civilization’.”

Gu Qilin's voice was very soft.

Gu Shen listened attentively.

"Some people want to find an 'oasis', a paradise of eternal peace."

representatives of these people.

It's Beizhou's Survey Corps.

Many extraordinary people come from all over the world. After learning the "truth of the world", they will choose to go to Beizhou... The Survey Corps will accept all explorers. They put on the Source Armor and go to the 【Old World】. Every time they go on an expedition, they have With hope.

oasis.

After so many years, the map of the 【Old World】 has only been explored.

In fact, most extraordinary people have given up hope in the "oasis", but under the torrent, if you really want to have illusions, nothing is more tempting than the "oasis".

"There are also some people who want to flee south and continue the plans of their predecessors."

Gu Qilin paused slightly and asked, "You should know that we were also wanderers six hundred years ago...right?"

"Yeah." Gu Shen nodded.

Six hundred years ago.

Chased by the storm that collapsed the order, humans fled to the five continents, and if it happened again...

"The real 'oasis' is never in the real world, but in the virtual world."

"【Deep Sea】... is an oasis!"

This sentence came from twenty years ago.

But twenty years later, it still deeply shocked Gu Shen.

"The stars...are underground."

"The shackles of the flesh, trapped underground."

"The human spirit will turn into stars and rise into the sky."

"If a few years later, the seismic storm destroys the giant wall and destroys the homes built by mankind on the five continents...then this plan can preserve part of the fire of human civilization. Even if the ground is fragmented and collapses and no longer exists, the spirit buried deep underground can The fire is always there.”

Gu Shen looked at Mr. Gu.

There was a smile in the latter's eyes, as if responding to Gu Shen's shock.

"Yes, at that time, my thoughts were the same as yours."

Gu Qilin said calmly: "We all think this guy is a genius and this plan is very constructive."

"It wasn't until later, when the plan started to unfold, that I felt something was wrong..."

Mr. Gu looked a bit self-deprecating.

"After the proposal of the Stars Project was passed, the Dongzhou Council gave Jingshanyan a lot of power."

"Since this plan requires the cooperation of 【Deep Sea】, the highest seat also made an exception for Jing Shanyan and gave up the highest authority——"

He suddenly looked at Gu Shen and asked.

"More than 20 years ago, the federal government launched a large-scale campaign against ancient literary societies. Do you know about this?"

Gu Shen's heart thumped slightly.

He nodded slowly.

So far... the Guwen Society is still a criminal organization that needs to be eradicated in the recognition of the federations in all continents.

Even if he is very close to Mr. Gu, he cannot reveal his identity as a member of the Ancient Literature Society.

"If you do the math, it seems to be the year you were born."

Mr. Gu said: "That year, 【Deep Sea】 issued the highest wanted order against members of the Ancient Literature Society. Zhou Jiren led the adjudication office and arrested nearly a hundred suspects from the Ancient Literature Society... Jingshanyan's prison was responsible for the detention."

"This should all go very smoothly."

"But before the Dongzhou Council could transfer, contain, torture, and identify the real 'Guwen Society suspects'... all of these people were dead."

Are all the suspects dead? !

Gu Shen's expression was extremely exciting.

"Jingshanyan, who has the highest authority of 【Deep Sea], did not imprison those people directly, but took them to the experimental site of the Star Project, locked them in the 'nutrition cabin', and ordered [Deep Sea】 to undergo a mental sea Simulation experiment.”

"This is Jing Shanyan's own statement. The result of this experiment is naturally an incomparable failure."

Gu Qilin stretched out his hand, pointed at the sky, and said lightly, "When I arrived at the scene, the spirits of those in the nutrition cabin were all expelled... They became the real 'stars'. The federal government's torture plan was scuppered."

"Due to serious dereliction of duty, Jing Shanyan's highest authority has been denied."

"To this day, we have doubts about his motives for this operation ... and his true identity."

"This is the entire story of the Star Project."

Gu Qilin stood up and said: "Since that day, Jing Shanyan has been imprisoned in the 【Snow Cage】. For twenty years, he has refused to answer any questions about this incident. No one can make him speak."

"No."
