In the evening.
Ling Ping'an stood at the door and watched as the street lights lit up one by one.
The rusty gate of the industrial park, which had not been opened for a long time, was finally opened in the evening.
A few vans drove into it.
Next door, Aunt Cai, who was about to close for the day, was talking to her neighbor.
"I told you, this place is blessed by Grandpa Literati Star …"
"Even the Central Institute of Technology wants to build a laboratory here!"
Central Institute of Technology?
Ling Ping'an couldn't help but smack his lips when he heard this name.
Although the Federal Empire was large, there were only a few universities that could be crowned with the title of 'central'.
Among them, the Federal Empire's Central University of Technology in Zhengzhou was known as the 'Jade of the Empire'.
Jade was the symbol of a gentleman.
The Book of Songs says, "Like cutting and sparring, like carving and grinding."
The fact that it could be crowned as the 'Jade of the Empire' was enough to show the status of this famous school in science and engineering.
However …
"Central University of Science and Technology came to Jiangcheng City to build a laboratory?" Ling Ping'an touched his nose, "How is this possible!?"
The Central Institute of Technology was a world-renowned university!
What did world-renowned schools mean?
To influence universities all over the world!
In his alumni list, there were names. They were either cabinet ministers or foreign heads of state.
Plucking a strand of hair from his body was something that ordinary universities could only look up to!
Take this laboratory for example.
Any one of the laboratories in the Central Institute of Science and Technology was a world-leading laboratory.
So much so that there was a joke that the dogs tied at the entrance of the laboratory of the Federal Empire's Central University of Technology were all grand scholars!
Every single one of these laboratories was fought over by cities all over the country.
Without supporting facilities worth tens of billions and introducing a bunch of policies, what could Jiangcheng City use to compete?
Just because of his love of science?
Hehe!
Therefore …
"What's amazing is that an office of Central University of Science and Technology is moving over..." Ling Ping'an thought.
"There's probably someone in Jiangcheng City who wants to hype things up before the election..."
A rumor about the Central University of Science and Technology was good for the re-election of the municipal government.
This way, regardless of whether the Datong Party won Jiangcheng City or the Gonghe Party won.
The city authorities could be retained.
It was better to use a cooked one than a raw one.
In any case, the Datong Party and the Gonghe Party had always been concerned about whether their ideals and ideas were implemented by the officials.
To academics, they are designers.
The person who designed and drew the blueprints.
Officials were just tools.
At most, he was a bricklayer!
Just like how Grand Secretary Chen Anning, who wrote "New Confucian Ethics and Capitalism" and established the mainstream ideology of the Gonghe Party, said in front of Yan Anzhuo, the then Cabinet Secretary, at the inquiry meeting of the Council of Ministers and Doctors, "We will write, and you can just grind the ink!"
Tools shouldn't have too many thoughts of their own.
We can't deviate from the blueprints drawn by the designers.
Of course, within the rules, the official system had ample discretion.
Thinking of this, Ling Ping'an returned to his shop.
He turned on the television, and sure enough, the mayor's spokesman appeared on the news.
"At the invitation of the Council of City Ministers and Doctors, the school affairs office of the Federal Empire's Central University of Technology visited our city today and conducted an inspection..."
Ling Ping'an only looked at it for a while before he sneered, "Bluff! Try your best to fool them! "
He had seen this kind of thing many times.
Before the election, the officials would focus on releasing good news.
Like a peacock spreading its tail, it desperately showed its existence to the Datong Party and the Gonghe Party.
That way, after they won, they would appoint him and even promote him. Therefore, there was nothing strange about it.
Turning off the television, Ling Ping'an sat back down at his counter.
He looked at the data in his background.
147.
It had increased by 24 today!
Awesome!
He then looked at the chapter in the background. There were ten messages in the chapter with the most messages.
Very good! Very powerful!
"Continue writing!" He said.
… …
Han Li returned to the street where she first discovered the fog.
This place had become very clean now.
The streets and the surrounding buildings had been cleaned up.
Large cranes also appeared nearby.
Obviously, the reconstruction work here was already on the agenda.
She leaped up lightly and landed on the top of an abandoned building with Xiao Ai.
At this moment, it was almost evening.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the top of the building.
Xiao Ai looked at it and sighed endlessly. The vitality and vitality of this world made the angels of the sky-piercer clan marvel!
But...
Xiao Ai looked at Han Li and tugged at her sleeve. She asked, "What are we doing here?"
In Xiao Ai's opinion, she should be heading to a secret place with this mysterious human. There was a powerful teleportation array there.
But here...
There was nothing!
Other than abandoned buildings, there were no people's vehicles.
In the distance, there was a dull mechanical roar.
Buildings were demolished on the spot, and dust flew everywhere.
"Wait..." Han Li sat on the edge of the rooftop and lowered her legs. The night wind blew on her body, and the golden color in her eyes slowly rotated.
The ravings had already appeared in her ears again.
She needed to wait.
Wait until she was allowed.
Suddenly, Han Li turned around and looked at a certain place.
A faint smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.
She knew that someone was following her.
They had been following her since she left the camp.
There was no doubt that the United National Security Organization did not trust her 100% as she had imagined.
However...
Han Li already knew last time.
There were also scum among humans.
There was even no lack of lackeys from the Abyss!
She smiled softly, and her nose moved slightly as she sniffed.
There was no smell of the Abyss!
Then she would not care.
Soon, the sun set.
However, Han Li was still sitting on the edge of the rooftop, her pair of beautiful long legs slowly swinging.
The moon hung in the sky, and the stars were shining.
Han Li was still sitting on the same spot, swinging her legs.
In an abandoned building hundreds of meters away from her, two men hiding in the rubble finally couldn\'t hold it in anymore.
One of them took off his night vision goggles and cursed, "Could this b * tch have already discovered us?"
"She\'s playing with us!"
"Mr. Hunter..." the other man said, "Don\'t be impatient..."
"Remember our mission!"
Only then did the man lie down again.
They were all from the Freedom Knights under the United Nations Security Council.
The so-called Freedom Knights were actually formed by some people who had been destroyed in the catastrophe and had completely lost their organization and structure.
In the past, in order to recover their homeland, they always rushed to the front line of the battle.
For this, countless people had sacrificed themselves.
But now, with the establishment of mage schools.
The knowledge of Arcana was popularized.
Their role and value had plummeted!
What made them even more afraid was that as countries began to recover their lost land and rebuild their industries and civilization.
These people who had lost their countries were shocked to find that they were at risk of being marginalized.
Naturally, it was not surprising that they had their eyes on Han Li.
They had to keep an eye on the demon hunter who had brought about all the changes and find the supporters behind her.
That was their goal.
In their opinion, since this eastern demon hunter could do it, of course, they could do it too!
It was a very simple and straightforward logic.
… …
The murmurs beside Han Li\'s ears were rustling.
She knew that the door was about to open.
So, she stood up and said to Xiao Ai, "Xiao Ai, get ready..."
"If I tell you to run, run back immediately. Don\'t look back..."
Xiao Ai nodded.
Han Li, on the other hand, took out the flashlight that she had never taken out even in the most dangerous of times.
Its electricity was limited.
Once it was used up, she had to ask the ancient God in the fog for a gift again.
Otherwise, she would be trapped in the fog forever.
She might even become a snack of the fog!
"Let\'s go!" Han Li pulled Xiao Ai and floated down from the roof.
At the same time, she turned on the flashlight in her hand and shone a bright light.
In the empty alley in front of them, the fog had already quietly appeared.
Han Li floated down, held Xiao Ai\'s hand, stepped in, and disappeared into the fog.
… …
"Quick!" Seeing Han Li floating down.
The two people who were hiding in the rubble immediately jumped up and followed.
Thus, they saw the fog in front of them.
They looked at each other.
This fog was too strange!
What was even more strange was that it was rapidly fading.
The two of them didn\'t have time to think and immediately followed in.
As soon as they stepped in, they realized that all the equipment they carried on them had instantly failed.
And the psionic power in their bodies was also bound by some strength at this moment.
At the same time, their bodies seemed to be frozen by something.
They lowered their heads, and in an instant, their spirits and wills sank into a boundless madness.
"Ah!" They screamed in fear.
But their cries could not be heard at all.
Because this was a forbidden area.
Not to mention sound, without permission, even light could not escape from here!
Bang bang bang..
Something was walking over.
They raised their heads. Above the thick fog, tentacles that looked like mycelium hung down.
One after another, faceless heads grew out of a huge, rotten body.
They hung down.
On the faceless head, evil eyes that looked like compound eyes of flies opened.
"Intruder!" A voice said, "Eat it!!"
Thus, these mycelium effortlessly rolled up the prey in front of them.
… …
Han Li held Xiao Ai\'s hand and walked into the fog.
The strong light of the flashlight shone into the thick fog.
Beside her ears, there was a rustling murmur that seemed to be telling something.
Unfortunately, she could not hear it clearly.
In this fog, there seemed to be a power that even the murmurs were disturbed.
Han Li held Xiao Ai\'s hand and slowly walked forward.
She was very careful and cautious.
This was because the fog seemed to have changed.
It was completely different from the feeling when she first entered.
At that time, the fog seemed to be dead.
But now..
There was obviously some vitality in the fog.
That\'s right!
It was vitality!
"Han Li!" Xiao Ai grabbed Han Li\'s hand tightly. She was extremely afraid!
The sky-piercer clan\'s sensitivity to danger made her suffer in this fog.
It was as if there were countless evil demons roaring in her ears, and it was also as if there were countless evil creatures howling.
Here..
It was a place that was more terrifying than hell and more evil than the abyss!
The only thing that made Xiao Ai feel at ease was the light that shone in the thick fog.
The light dispelled the roars of the evil demons and chased away the covetous eyes of the evil creatures.
"Don\'t be afraid!" Han Li comforted Xiao Ai.
She looked ahead. In the depths of the fog, a flickering light had already appeared.
"The owner of this place has accepted you!" Han Li said to Xiao Ai.
Xiao Ai raised her head, not quite understanding.
However, Han Li did not explain because the things here could not be explained.
Everything was just the intention of the owner of the bookstore.
He could live if he liked it.
He would die if he hated it!
This fog was his territory, and it was also the result of his psionic power radiation!
"Let\'s go..." Han Li held the flashlight in her hand tightly and held Xiao Ai\'s hand.
For safety, she asked Xiao Ai to carry the bag full of gifts on her back.
Xiao Ai took it in a daze.
The moment she took the bag, Xiao Ai was stunned.
This was because all the noises around her ears had disappeared completely when she received the bag.
The fear and trembling in her soul also disappeared.
"What exactly is this place?" Xiao Ai could not help but ask.
"The place of an unimaginably great ruler..." Han Li replied, "We will see him soon..."
"When you see him, Xiao Ai, you will know how great he is!"
