Bulwark of Light

Chapter 522 Invitation to a Grand Event

Zhong Yuan stared at Gu Shen all the time, carefully observing Gu Shen's reaction.

Zhong Yuan did not hide his intention of saying these words.

He thanked Gu Shen from the bottom of his heart for bringing his team back to the fortress.

But he was equally skeptical from the bottom of his heart.

Who is this young man from Dongzhou who is able to do so many unimaginable things...

Especially after finishing the nightmarish "Doru River Disaster" mission, he still has a fresh memory of the horror of [River Poison].

"Your Excellency seems to have something to say."

Gu Shen calmly said: "I don't know what you mean by the 'Duolu River Disaster' and 'River Poison', I only know...the 'spiritual poison' that broke out in Gubao this time is not unsolvable The crisis, even without my 'flame', the Beizhou military should be able to solve it, right?"

"of course."

Zhong Yuan didn't get any useful information from Gu Shen, he apologized frankly: "I'm sorry... I was worrying too much, I've been too nervous these days, and I'm a little paranoid."

The blond man's gaze was a little erratic, as if he was caught in a memory: "Although it is the same source of power, the [river poison] of the Duolu River is much more powerful than the toxin you unraveled this time. A kind of mental poison that brings people despair... So far I don't want to recall the scene of the mission."

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

No one knows better than him what homologous toxins mean!
The poison of the golden spike flower is the power created by the underworld fire... If the [river poison] in the territory of the Dolu River disaster and the poison of the golden spike flower really have the same origin, then it means that there is also a "river poison" in the Dolu river. The power of hell fire.

The mental toxin of the Duolu River is much more powerful than the poison of golden spikes?

"About the Doru River..."

Gu Shen hesitated for a moment, and asked, "What exactly is that place?"

This is Beizhou's absolute secret.

With Chu Ling's current authority, it is still impossible to read high-risk files with such a confidentiality level.

After Gu Shen opened his mouth, he changed his tone and smiled: "Sorry... I'm just curious, if it's not convenient for you to answer, you don't need to answer."

"The high-level military officers who participated in the operation have signed a confidentiality agreement. I can't tell you the details." Zhong Yuan shook his head: "If you are interested in the Doru River, you might as well go to the Central City. As far as I know, how many Lu He may have another operation in the future...and the leader of the legion seems to be very interested in you, if you meet a person of her level in person, you will be able to answer all your doubts."

"There is one more operation. Hasn't the Duolu River crusade already been completed?" Gu Shen frowned.

"Ah……"

The blond man smiled slightly.

He avoided talking about the previous topic, and said leisurely: "If there is no accident, the 'invitation letter' from the Central City will arrive at the Gubao Fortress in just two days. Beizhou will invite you to the central city to accept the 'conferring'."

Gu Shen asked with interest: "Conferred?"

"Don't get me wrong, all the members who participated in the maze mission will be 'conferred'." Zhong Yuan calmly said: "This maze mission is of great significance. You broke the oasis' lie in time, escaped in the storm, and completed the 'no' "Maybe" mission, everything you have done is enough to bring hope to people. According to the information I learned from the leader of the legion, regarding the difficulty of this mission and the influence of the "Hongzhong Incident", the central The city may award a first-class medal."

Gu Shen is no stranger to the term first-class medal.

When they first set foot on the [Old World], Mo Hongyi and Zhu Xiao mentioned the first-class medal, which seems to be the top honor in Beizhou.

Zhu Xiao's original words at the time were: "Can a living person get this thing?"

Thinking about it now, this is quite appropriate.

The first-class medal is indeed not something that living people can get.

If Gu Shen hadn't participated in this mission, then the entire team that went out this time would have all been buried in the snow mountain maze.

If there is no deal with the devil who is the ruler of truth, then Gu Shen will also fall under the storm.

Lin Lin's report blamed [door] for the escape.

But only Gu Shen, who has personally experienced everything, knows that this mission is truly a narrow escape.

"A lot of people out there are guessing right now that you're not going to Central City."

Zhong Yuan suddenly said: "After all, you are from the Outer Continent, so even if you get the 'Conferment' from the Northern Continent, it doesn't mean anything. Someone in the Investigation Corps made a bet with me that you will return to the Eastern Continent after completing the [Maze Mission]. ..."

Gu Shen listened calmly.

The vast majority of those in power in the Beizhou Legion did not know the real purpose of their trip to the north.

For the maze task, part of the information of the teacher and sister has been found.

In addition to the disappearance case of "Phi Yuecheng Fortress", he also personally presented Mr. Gu Changzhi's envelope to Her Majesty the Empress.

So Gu Shen will go to Central City no matter what.

And this conferment also gave him a just right reason.

"Congratulations, you can ask that guy for a bet in advance." Gu Shen said: "I have always been interested in Central City, and I will leave as soon as the invitation letter arrives."

"Do not……"

Zhong Yuan shook his head, and he said seriously: "Before I met you, I was concerned about whether I could win the bet. After I met you, I no longer cared about the bet with that person. You are indeed very capable. They are also very talented, at this age, there are only a handful of geniuses in Beizhou who can cultivate their spiritual power to a level higher than the current extraordinary level."

Gu Shen couldn't help laughing, he was familiar with this.

If you want to suppress it, you will first raise it.

"After the incident at Gubao Fortress, many important people in Beizhou have already heard of your name." Zhong Yuan said solemnly: "Recently, Beizhou has not been peaceful. Regarding the Gubao storm, Lord Zhuxue has sent an invitation to the frontier defenses, and soon all the princes and generals guarding the Beizhou fortress will go to the central city."

Gu Shen's expression became serious.

It sounds like this is a "event".

"In the previous meeting at Jubi, everyone was very 'friendly', but not everyone was so 'friendly'. As far as I know, someone in the Beizhou military dislikes you very much." Zhong Yuan said bluntly: "No Unexpectedly, Grand Duke Zhuxue invites the generals this time, and he will also go. So... if you go to the central city, you may encounter trouble."

Speaking of this, Zhong Yuan sighed helplessly: "So I hope you will think carefully before deciding whether to go to the Central City to accept the 'conferment'."

Halfway through hearing it, Gu Shen understood Zhong Yuan's meaning.

"thanks for reminding."

He smiled and said, "Someone doesn't like me very much? Even brother Zhong Yuan dare not name the existence he named, it seems that he is a big shot."

Gu Shen could see that Zhong Yuan's reminder was purely kind.

But this thing is really interesting.

His identity as "Pluto" has not been revealed.

And this is the first time Gu Shen has arrived in Beizhou. Before that, he had no contact with anyone on this land...except for the mysterious "Zero Paint Three" in the Ancient Literature Club.

In this case, who would not like themselves?
"He is indeed a great person." Zhong Yuan said sincerely: "If you return to Dongzhou from Gubao, then there will be no friction."

After all, no matter how long the arms of the big shots in Beizhou are, they can't reach Dongzhou.

"I see……"

Gu Shen pondered for a moment, then said two words lightly: "Thank you."

Other than that, there is no other indication.

From the looks of it, it's more like going to the central city?
Zhong Yuan was slightly taken aback, a little helpless.

He didn't expect that after reminding himself, Gu Shen's attitude seemed to become more determined.

What's the deal with this?

But this is Beizhou, is this kid so tough?

"All right……"

Seeing this, Zhong Yuan shook his head, and stopped trying to persuade him, and said solemnly: "That guy's ability is very strange, and there is also a 'weird and unpredictable' sealed item. It is inconvenient for me to disclose more information, so be careful."

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows.

Said it was "inconvenient to disclose information"...

But Zhong Yuan's raised finger, at the fingertips, outlined a ray of flames.

He wears a ring on the index finger of his right hand, which is the famous A-level sealed item [Huangjie] in Beizhou. It is said that the flame in [Huangjie] can burn the spirit. The powerful flame of the source... After the appearance of this ray of flame, it directly aroused the trembling resonance of "blazing fire" between Gu Shen's brows.

Fortunately, there is a golden hoop to suppress it.

Otherwise, "Zhi Huo" would jump out of the eyebrows and compete with this Phoenix Flame.

Zhong Yuan turned and left.

Gu Shen quietly watched the word slowly burning and dissipating in the air.

"Meng."

Zhong Yuan left a surname for himself.

This is very important message.

With the help of [Deep Sea], only one surname is needed, and the group can often be locked and narrowed down.

And Chu Ling searched for a big man with the surname Meng among the high-level officials in Beizhou in an instant... This turned out to be a big surname in Beizhou. Like Lin, there are more than a dozen people.

After a few seconds, the flames burned out.

Gu Shen looked at the list in his head and fell into deep thought.

It seems that the big man who hates him is really powerful... Zhong Yuan deliberately used the [Phoenix Ring] to burn that big man's surname, obviously not wanting to leave traces.

What kind of ability is it that can capture the conversations happening in Gubao?
What kind of sealed item made Zhong Yuan act so carefully?

After thinking about it for a while, I really couldn't figure it out.

Gu Shen shook his head, and simply put the question behind him.

He gave a brief summary of what happened in the cemetery, and sent it to Lin Lin by email, and then left...and returned to his room.

Just closed the door.

Gu Shen then released four blazing flames, guarding the four sides of the pavilion, which was a force that had not been used even to "seal" the ruler of truth.

He took out the broken cross pendant.

After wearing the ghost veil to ensure everything was safe, Gu Shen's spiritual power was immersed in the pendant.

He spoke to the huddled soul in the mental space.

"Hong Zhong..."

"wake up!"
