"Yu, I'll leave this to you. Help me think of a safe way to deal with it." Tang Ling was a little tipsy, but he was not drunk. He tossed a small bag to Yu in the cold night breeze and spoke casually.
Yu caught the bag and opened it. He could not help but chuckle bitterly. "How many secrets are you hiding? Do you think I can handle it? "
Under the Purple Moon's moonlight, the small pile of crystals in the open bag reflected the moonlight, creating a misty sense of beauty.
The pile of crystals was more than what the entire Fierce Dragon Squad had gotten, yet Tang Ling simply tossed it out and asked Yu to handle it?
Tang Ling smiled but did not answer. He tightened his training uniform and lit a cigarette. He took a deep puff and passed it to Yu. "Want a puff?"
Yu was a little hesitant, but he still took the cigarette and took a puff. He choked and coughed a few times. Somehow, compared to drinking, it was a different kind of relaxation.
After spending so much time with Tang Ling, it was hard not to be influenced by him.
"I actually don't have many secrets. If I do, it's just that I'm a little stronger than you guys think. I mean, I'm really strong." It was a long answer because Tang Ling did not want to lie to Yu.
He was indeed just a little stronger than the Fierce Dragon Squad thought, and his transformation was not considered his true strength.
Tang Ling then lit another cigarette. It was his last one for the month. As for the first one, he would use it to taint Yu.
Yu was a little helpless when he saw Tang Ling's reaction. The kid really did not have any good intentions, but he still leaned against a wooden box and held the cigarette in his mouth.
"I can't trade these crystals for Hope credits. I'll bring them to my family as soon as possible. My family will digest them and we'll barter them with other items. As for where they came from, I'll tell them that I bought them with credits after tonight's mission. "
"Is that okay?" Tang Ling had no objection to Yu's way of handling things, but he was afraid that Yu would get into trouble.
"Don't be a hypocrite. If you're really afraid, you wouldn't have asked me." Yu rolled his eyes at Tang Ling. He was obviously smarter than Orston. He then said, "Hope credits can't be spent in Safety Sector No. 17. Other than that, Hope credits can be traded for cultivation resources, and most of the people here value their lives more."
"If I use Hope credits to exchange for credits through the official platform, it's not worth it. That's why it's not uncommon to use credits for something in the Hope Barrier. "
"Hmm, that's great." Tang Ling nodded.
"Then you should think about what you want to exchange for, right? Don't try to take advantage of me. You will only suffer a slight loss in such a transaction. "Yu had nothing to hide.
"Vicious beast meat, the higher the better." Tang Ling had already made up his mind.
"That won't be much." It seemed like the Yufeng family was able to provide vicious beast meat, so Yu was not surprised by Tang Ling's request.
After a simple conversation, the two of them fell silent again. The light blue smoke was blown by the night wind and quickly dissipated without a trace.
Back in the Fierce Dragon Squad's cave, everyone was drunk, including the seniors. Tang Ling was the only one who purposely stayed sober. Yu also drank less under Tang Ling's hint.
After everyone fell asleep, Tang Ling invited Yu to the edge of the Patrol Ground. He leaned against the wall and watched the battlefield ruins. Somehow, it had become a form of entertainment and relaxation for him.
"There will be a quiet period after this. I think after I enter the Tower, the whole squad can apply for the official cultivation course, "Tang Ling said in a muffled voice after a moment of silence.
"Hmm, everyone should be fine. When the official cultivation starts, you won't really be left behind, will you? " The effect of talent during basic training was not that obvious, but once the official cultivation started, the Genetic Chain Talent's effect would be very obvious.
During this period, the difference between good and bad talent would quickly widen the gap between the New Moon Warriors. Yu knew Tang Ling was extraordinary and had his own secrets, but he had witnessed his talent with his own eyes, so it could not be faked.
"No problem. Who am I? I'm Tang Ling."
"Yes, the Tang Ling with a lot of secrets."
"I don't have a lot of secrets. I'm the Tang Ling with a lot of burdens."

After the garage mission, the Hope Barrier went back to its normal lifestyle.
Battle, work, missions, learning, and leveling up were the main themes that never changed.
However, on the second day after that night, Safety Sector No. 17 deployed several groups of normal warriors to the area. They started to clean up the ruins and the few zombies left in the garage as if they were about to start building something.
Was it considered a success? Maybe not. So many lives had been lost and so many Purple Moon Warriors had almost lost their lives there.
Everything depended on Castellan Worf's help.
Was it considered a failure? That wasn't the case. After all, the humans had already occupied the warehouse area and were rapidly constructing it.
It was all thanks to Castellan Worf's help.
So, was the garage mission a success or a failure? The people did not know how to comment on it. Maybe they did not want to admit that the power of an individual was much greater than the power of a group in this era.
Would the normal people lose the right to survive in the future?
"What kind of problem is this? Most of the time, it's always a handful of people who are out of reach who walk in the front, and when the path is clear, a group of people will follow. "Su Yao put the glass down and looked at Tang Ling as if he was looking at an idiot.
His expression obviously showed that he was superior in terms of intellect.
"Where's the proof?" Tang Ling sipped his fruit juice in frustration.
Every month, there would be one precious day when he could return to Safety Sector No. 17. Facing the battlefield all day, he would realize how paradise it was to live a normal life and enjoy life.
Su Yao asked Tang Ling to meet at a bar.
Unfortunately, there were no customers. The owner of the bar looked like he did not want strangers to enter and his attitude was very bad.
Su Yao ordered a glass of good liquor. It was said that it was a leftover from the old civilization called vodka.
The owner said he would not pay for Tang Ling's drink, so Tang Ling ordered a glass of corn wine. To his surprise, Su Yao did not stop Tang Ling from drinking. Instead, the owner served him a glass of fruit juice.
"I don't welcome kids who haven't even grown their pubic hair to drink here. Leave if you don't want to. "
Tang Ling was helpless. Everyone was enjoying themselves in the Safety Sector. Even Vian and Christina were out shopping, so why did he have to come here to drink fruit juice?
Be it the alcohol or fruit juice from the Hope Barrier, none of them were better than this broken bar.
However, Tang Ling did not care. He still wanted to see Su Yao.
"Proof? In the ancient Huaxia of the Dongsheng Continent, there was an era where a hundred schools of thought contended. The philosophers appeared and the brilliance of their thoughts shone over the whole of Huaxia. They brought the people from ignorance to civilization, from barbarism to a civilized society that valued etiquette and sentiments.
"In that era, the thoughts of the Philosophers were far ahead of the times. It was astonishing."
"In the Light Continent, during the Renaissance Era, many scientific geniuses appeared. It's like the sun shone down on the Light Continent. Don't you know what kind of impetus the geniuses led by Einstein brought to the old civilization?
"During that era, didn't they also make the common people helpless? You can't help but doubt the structure of their brains. " After that, Su Yao took a big gulp of the liquor and tapped Tang Ling's shoulder. He seemed to be very interested in the topic, but Tang Ling was a little distracted.
However, Tang Ling was a little absent-minded as he tried to think of a way to ask Su Yao about 'its' secret. Su Yao did promise to tell him after he entered the First Reserved Camp.
Su Yao seemed to be a little annoyed by Tang Ling's absent-mindedness, so he slapped Tang Ling's head.
"Do you understand what I'm saying, kid? A real big shot has to lead the era forward, no matter how big the obstacles are or whether there are rewards or not. Otherwise, no matter how powerful a person is, he's just a character embedded in the era. He can't become a hero that transcends the era and defeats time. "Su Yao was a little agitated.
"But what does that have to do with me?" Tang Ling rubbed his head in dissatisfaction. Indeed, he was just a young man born in the settlement with hatred in his heart.
He could not be embedded in the era, nor could he transcend it.
Su Yao went quiet. He did not even look at Tang Ling as he picked up his liquor and drained it in a single gulp. He then shouted, "Boss, another glass of vodka."
The boss quietly picked up another glass of vodka and slammed it on the table. Somehow, the liquor did not splash on Su Yao. Instead, it splashed on Tang Ling's face.
He even rolled his eyes at Tang Ling before he left.
"Do I have a grudge against him?" Tang Ling was annoyed. He took a sip of the juice in his glass. It was made from apples and had a nice sweet and sour taste.
"Uncle Su Yao, this time, I …"
"Tang Ling, do you think you've been dreaming for the past month?"
Both Tang Ling and Su Yao spoke almost at the same time.
The only difference was that Tang Ling had been planning for a long time. He wanted to ask about the secret of 'it' in his chest while Su Yao mentioned Tang Ling's dream.
The words that he had been planning for a long time were interrupted, but Tang Ling did not feel disappointed because dreams were also something that he really wanted to explore.
However, Su Yao obviously did not know much about it, so Tang Ling did not want to talk about it with Su Yao.
However, since Su Yao mentioned it, it was obvious that he did not just want to know whether Tang Ling had entered the dream or not.
Tang Ling shook his head and said, "No. If you didn't mention it today, I would have forgotten that I can enter the dream.
I've been to a faraway place for the past month and it cost me a lot. " Su Yao did not comment on Tang Ling's answer. Instead, he took a sip of wine and mentioned something that had nothing to do with the dream.
Tang Ling glanced at Su Yao. The man was as buff as a mountain, but after a month, he looked thinner. Tang Ling did not know whether it was because of his tanned skin, his haggard appearance, or the heavy vicissitudes of life that made him look thinner.
Tang Ling waited patiently for Su Yao to continue.
Su Yao leisurely lit a cigarette. If the Fierce Dragon Squad were there, they would surely be astonished by how similar Su Yao's smoking posture was to Tang Ling's.
However, no one cared about the details. Amid the rising smoke, Su Yao's thick and heavy voice came, "But the result is not bad. I've used all sorts of methods and found a Dream Seed. Is that what you call a Dream Seed, right? Tang Ling? "
Tang Ling's hand that was holding the glass trembled a little. His heart was filled with gratitude, but he did not know how to express it.
He looked up and said, "Uncle Su Yao, give me a cigarette."
Pak! Su Yao kicked the stool that Tang Ling was sitting on. "Yo, kid. What rank did the First Reserved Camp upgrade your smoking skill to? "
As he spoke, a cigarette was tossed to Tang Ling. It was of a higher rank than the cigarettes that Tang Ling smoked in the First Reserved Camp.
Tang Ling sat up, squinted his eyes, and nodded. He pinched the cigarette between his thumb and middle finger, leaned his body slightly, and spat out a mouthful of smoke. He pretended like nothing happened and said, "Yes, it's called a Dream Seed."
He had never mentioned these details to Su Yao before because Su Yao did not ask about it.
When Su Yao told him about it, it meant that he had traveled a thousand miles to enter the dream.
The deep feelings between men were never expressed through words.
"Hmph." The bar owner looked at Su Yao and Tang Ling. The two of them were the only two customers in the bar, and they shared the same posture in the annoying smoke. They looked like two Su Yaos, one big and one small.
Interesting. The bar owner lowered his head.
"According to the information I got, all the Dream Seeds will appear in the same place after entering the dream." Su Yao was not shocked at all. As a matter of fact, when he heard about it for the first time, he was astonished.
"What do you mean?" Tang Ling choked on the smoke. Did it mean that many people had the same dream? It was unimaginable! Was it the Mysterious Store's doing? Or was it another faction's doing? How did they do it? And …
There were too many questions, and he did not know where to start. Even the concept of a place was very abstract.
"Literal meaning. In simple words, after you enter the dream, the environment in the dream will be the same. This environment doesn't mean … "Su Yao was not good at expressing himself. He was trying his best to organize his words to describe the abstract situation.
Tang Ling was patient. He did not interrupt Su Yao or ask any questions. He just waited.
"Fine, let's put it this way. For example, the standard environment after entering the dream is Safety Sector No. 17. After entering the dream, all the Dream Seeds will gather in Safety Sector No. 17.
"All of you will do different things because the distance and path you travel in the dream will be different, but all of you will move forward with the same goal in mind. You might meet each other, but you might not even meet each other until the dream ends. Do you understand what I'm saying? "
Su Yao tried his best to describe it.
However, as smart as Tang Ling was, he still spent at least half a minute to understand what Su Yao meant.
Did it mean that at a certain moment in the dream world, all the Dream Seeds would enter the dream at the same time and enter the same dream?
It felt like an ancient technique called Gu Rearing, where all the gu were placed in the same pot. Was that what it meant?
Tang Ling squeezed the cigarette in his hand. He was not afraid, but indescribably excited.
"I get it," Tang Ling answered Su Yao after a few seconds of silence.
"Do you really get it? Did you notice the details in my words? The dream world will collapse one day. "Su Yao looked at Tang Ling seriously.
"I understand. When the only king appears, right?" Tang Ling would never let go of such an important piece of information. As for the king, it was purely based on the fact that Tang Ling viewed the dream world as a giant gu pot.
Otherwise, why would the dream world exist in such a form?
(I don't know if it's the second or third night today. I'll try my best and stop when I'm tired. However, after the second night today, there will be an activity in the book review section that I've decided to do. It's a long-term activity. I want to donate a portion of my monthly fee to my fans. Check the book review section for details. 87 words at the end will not affect the fee.)
