"Amazing!"
After a brief moment of dead silence, Huai Shi seemed to have woken up from a dream. He clapped his hands frantically and applauded the senior's performance. "It's not just amazing. It's simply amazing!"
It was as if he had experienced the difference between heaven and earth. It was an achievement that he would never be able to reach in his lifetime. Huai Shi was so moved that he shook his head, intoxicated. "It's really amazing …"
"Amazing my ass!"
Ying Fangzhou interrupted his flattery and glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. He didn't know where this guy's face came from.
"What's so amazing about it?" he asked.
"Uh …"
Huai Shi's gaze drifted.
This made Ying Fangzhou even more unhappy.
He didn't believe that Huai Shi couldn't see it.
For Yun Zhongjun, this was an ordinary attack without any fancy moves. It could be said that it was no different from breathing instinctively.
Yin and Yang stimulated each other, and through the transformation of Origin Substance, it triggered the purest destruction and explosion.
At the end of the day, ignoring all the changes in Origin Substance, it was just an electric shock.
This kind of thing didn't even need Yun Zhongjun to do it. In stormy weather, in power stations, cables, and even in every outlet, this kind of phenomenon happened all the time.
Now, it was just using high-voltage electricity to electrocute someone to death. What was so amazing about it?
However, anyone who had studied physics in junior high school would not find it strange.
What was really important was the "purity" of it.
It was just a punch without using any other abilities. Apart from the demonstration elements, there was no preparation or accumulation of power. It naturally buried the Hunting Angel from hell in thunder.
Only ashes were left.
If Huai Shi used the same move, he could at most add a scorch mark to the opponent.
His proficiency after thousands of practice sessions and his determination and tenacity to use strength to break through technique were the most important parts of this attack. It was also because of the painstaking effort he had put into it over such a long period of time that it was able to display an extraordinary effect.
If it was in the past, Huai Shi would definitely exclaim in surprise.
However, after the Sword Saint's guidance, he was no longer as narrow-minded as before.
Perhaps the effect seemed extraordinary, but for the person involved, it was a matter of course. It was just like drinking water and breathing. It could be done as long as one had hands and feet. In comparison, the other able-bodied people were like disabled people who could only look up to them with envy.
This pure determination and willpower was what Ying Fangzhou truly wanted to show Huai Shi under the surface of the thunder.
In the end, Huai Shi, who clearly knew what was going on, started to change the topic and feign ignorance. It was only natural that the old senior would be unhappy.
"I don't understand what has become of the Celestial genealogy."
Ying Fangzhou coldly reprimanded, "All of you are crafty and only know how to scheme. If you can't win, you run away. If you can't run away, you call for help. What kind of Master of the Lineage are you?"
"Cough, cough." Huai Shi wanted to say something but hesitated. Just as he was about to shift the blame and berate Russell for his heinous crimes, he saw Ying Fangzhou suddenly wave his hand and interrupt him.
"Forget it, don't say anymore. Even if you say it, he's not here. No matter how angry you are, you can't beat him up."
Do you think it's easier for you to beat me up just because I'm here?
Huai Shi's expression twitched, and he was speechless.
After dealing with the Praiser cleanly, Ying Fangzhou waved his sleeves and directly raised a gust of wind, blowing away the dust in the ruins.
An all-pervasive airflow swept through the ruins. Then, Huai Shi saw a faint blue light. An electrostatic field had already spread out in the fine water vapor and snowflakes, enveloping the building.
Finally, a crisp sound of metal colliding came from inside and jumped directly into Ying Fangzhou's hand.
It was not an airflow lift or psychokinesis. It was just a random magnetization that attracted and pulled it over. This simple micro-manipulation was something that Huai Shi could not learn.
This time, Ying Fangzhou did not reprimand Huai Shi again. He just looked down at the thing in his palm. After a long time, he sighed softly.
He threw it to Huai Shi.
Huai Shi caught it in a hurry. He looked down and saw an emblem that looked like a brooch.
On the black brooch was the emblem of a golden astronomical telescope and the symbol of a circling laurel, representing the current state.
After a long time, the color still did not fade. Instead, after electrolysis, the dust and dirt on it had faded away, and it became as bright as new.
Huai Shi looked at it for a moment and was a little incredulous. "It looks a bit like the emblem of the Astronomical Society?"
"It doesn't look like it, it is."
Ying Fangzhou replied, "It was the emblem of the earliest days when the Pioneer Society led the establishment of the Astronomical Society with the support of the major lineages. At that time, they chose to establish it in the no man's land of the Six London Isles to show that there was no distinction between nationality and borders. The location was the Greenwich Observatory.
The name that was announced to the public was the International Astronomical Society.
The one in your hand is the emblem of the members when they were first established. "
"Wow, senior, you know so well." Huai Shi flattered him at the right time, but he attracted the cold stare of the old man.
Well, he kissed the horse's leg again.
"I don't know what the Astronomical Society is like now, but if you read the history of the Astronomical Society properly, this thing should be on the first page."
"… Cough, cough, isn't it because I'm busy with work?" Huai Shi sighed awkwardly. "You see, I'm only 19 this year. Since my debut, I've been working as a human puppet. Things happened one after another. I want to make up for it, but I don't have the time."
Ying Fangzhou still wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
He just sighed.
It was a rare look of melancholy, which was too weak for him.
"Why are the members of the first Astronomical Society here?" Huai Shi asked. "Also, before I came here, I saw some … illusions …"
"Before Gaia broke, wasn't it a part of the current state?" Ying Fangzhou replied, "It's not surprising that there are members of the Astronomical Society. There are also people like me who died in hell."
Under the breeze, at the bottom of the building, under the debris of bricks and dust, the dim and mottled matrix appeared in front of Huai Shi's eyes.
Ying Fangzhou said, "At that time, when the Creation Plan was decided, there were still many people who objected. But at this point, we had no choice.
There was no precedent, no experience, and no one knew if it would succeed, so we could only prepare for the worst. "
"Didn't we succeed in the end?" Huai Shi asked.
"Yes, but success isn't perfect." Ying Fangzhou said, "There are still fragments that fall into hell, bringing along those who are guarding it …"
Huai Shi fell silent.
A long time ago, when everything collapsed and fell into hell, what kind of feelings did those who stayed behind look at the scene of rebirth in the distance gradually disappear?
"Among them, some were accidental negligence, and some were people who knew from the beginning that there was no way out.
Apart from the Utopia who directly participated in the reorganization and the Continuation Court as a backup measure, more than a quarter of the members of the Directorate at that time sacrificed themselves to ensure the success of the Creation Plan. "
Ying Fangzhou sighed softly. "Although that group of fellows are sometimes stubborn and annoying, their dedication and perseverance to their duties are in no way inferior to others."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and touched the array that had long decayed and the secret apparatus that could no longer be maintained.
The illusionary image of the hotel flashed for a moment and then disappeared. However, there was no one inside. It was empty, no longer as lively as Huai Shi had witnessed.
It was like a container that had lost the treasure inside. It was no longer valuable.
Ying Fangzhou said, "What you saw was his final alchemy."
With this illusory dream as the foundation, the deceased hid the blood of Gaia in it and continued to this moment in the future, leaving it in the hands of the successor.
This was the final sacrifice made by the nameless ancestor.
If he used this power appropriately, he might be able to live a peaceful life in this hopeless situation, right? In any case, the Utopia had already abandoned him, and the Astronomy Association was destined to be unable to save him. In the future, perhaps no one would ever visit him again.
However, he ultimately did not cross that boundary.
Instead, he comforted the other victims and established the final camp to comfort and warm each other. He continued the short period of time and sacrificed himself to leave behind the thin illusion and dream that had lasted until now for them.
In the end, he never abandoned his duty.
"Don't be fooled by the jokes of those bureaucrats in the Directorate, Huai Shi.
Some people can become heroes and shine brightly, but don't forget that there are even more people who are sacrificing everything for the same dream and future. There has to be someone who is willing to take second place and hold on to an unimportant position for the rest of their lives.
The Utopia is never nobler than other places. As members of the Astronomy Association, it's their existence that makes us what we are. "
Ying Fangzhou turned around and told him, "You have to remember this."
"I will." Huai Shi nodded.
This time, Ying Fangzhou did not reprimand him anymore. He just took one last look at the ruins in front of him and walked out with Huai Shi.
Amidst the endless falling snow and cold winds, Ying Fangzhou raised his hand and temporarily parted the dark clouds, revealing the dark shadows that were constantly rising at the end of the distant sky.
In the senses that Yun Zhongjun transmitted to Huai Shi's consciousness, he could sense the aura of the Abyss that was constantly surging and transforming in the desolate world outside this frozen city.
Calamities were constantly gathering. Under the control of the other participants and chess players, the power of Hell gradually sprouted, grew stronger, and continued to extend.
And in the area occupied by Hell that was spreading like smoke signals, only a weak, helpless, and pitiful Grade 2 Mountain Ghost hugged his golden thigh and trembled.
"Has everyone started to take pictures of the base and the mine? I'm afraid there's going to be an explosion of troops next … "
Huai Shi pondered for a long time and tried his best to use tactful words to suggest, "It won't be safe here soon. We're alone, and there's no chance of winning if we fight them head-on.
Do you think the two of us should … change our strategy? "
"If we run, then run. Why change our strategy? Who are you trying to fool?"
Ying Fangzhou glanced at him as if he could read his mind. "Why? In your eyes, am I an old antique who can't understand the situation?"
"Ah, this …"
Huai Shi was stunned.
