As Zhang Lisheng chatted with the Lavin family's child, time passed by slowly. After the young man finished eating the sandwich that his mother brought out, the crowd waiting to take refuge on the grass on both sides of the street began to gradually decrease due to exhaustion.
No matter what society it was, the people were actually a group that followed blindly. Just like after the earthquake, they inexplicably succumbed to the fear deep in their hearts and hid outside with others meaninglessly. When the lights of the neighbors' houses were lit up again, everyone soon regained their courage and rationality and went home one after another.
"Mr. Lavin, Madam Lili, I should go back too." When Allison saw that the entire street was lit up and the people on the lawn had become sparse, she also took the initiative to wave goodbye to the Lavin family and Zhang Lisheng. "Goodbye Lisheng, goodbye Lili, Michelle …"
"Are you going home, Allison? Oh girl, thank you for staying by my side today. If you feel lonely this Christmas, you're welcome to spend it with our family.
Lisheng is back, so we plan to leave for New New York C tomorrow to look for my parents. They're very interesting and hospitable people, so they'll definitely welcome you and make your holiday very enjoyable. "Lili hugged the black girl and invited.
"Thank you, madam. Unfortunately, I'll have to let you down. We're not allowed to leave New Washington City for Christmas." Allison hesitated and replied with a regretful expression.
"That's a shame. I'll bring you a gift. Goodbye, Allison." Lili also had a regretful expression on her face. In the end, she kissed Allison's cheek and watched the female officer walk to the parking lot.
After that, she turned to look at her son who was looking up at the sky in a daze and could not help but say, "Baby, I'm not trying to interfere with your private life.
But what a good girl she is! She's young, beautiful, hot, and has an officer identity that's very attractive to the opposite sex … "
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Zhang Lisheng snapped back to reality. When he heard his mother's words becoming more and more ridiculous, he curled his lips and said, "Didn't I tell you before that Allison came from the Department of Defense Intelligence? She's not a simple person, so I don't want to be too close to her."
"Oh baby, so what if I used to be an intelligence officer in the Department of Defense? Don't forget that your previous girlfriend was the most famous socialite in the US. Didn't you get along very well too …" Lili blurted out but she soon realized that she had said something that she should not have. She choked on her words but she still saw her eldest son's face turning gloomy and bitter.
"I'm sorry, baby. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have mentioned your sad story." The mother immediately hugged the young man guiltily and whispered.
If it was someone else who was spouting nonsense like this, Zhang Lisheng would have lost his temper long ago. He would have either killed the person or punished him cruelly. However, he could only suppress his anger when it came to Lili. He even had to smile wryly and comfort her, "How can I blame you for this, mom? It's my fault, mom.
If it wasn't for Trish and I … Oh, anyway, it's my fault. "
"Trish? You mean your ex-girlfriend Tina's best friend, Trish Steg? Don't tell me that you've fallen in love with her, Lisheng?
She used to be a rising political star in the New Washington A and she's also very charming … "The Lavin family's second son, who was by the side, inadvertently heard this half-concealed secret. With his eyes wide open, he exclaimed with interest.
"Randy, do you think it's appropriate to use the word 'falling in love' to describe your brother?" Zhang Lisheng froze and glared at Randy fiercely. However, he saw that the Lavin family's second son seemed to be immersed in his imagination as he continued to say enviously, "Even though you only have two women, they're both of the highest quality. An ordinary man would feel lucky to even shake their hands … Oh, no!
Oh, no, who knows if you've only dated these two girls or maybe even more. Ah, I used to think that you were addicted to scientific research and lived an ascetic life. I didn't expect that your life is actually so colorful … "
The young man choked upon hearing Randy's wretched look. Annoyed, he waved his fist in front of Randy's blank gaze, scaring the Lavin family's second son so much that he jumped back. Only then did he take a deep breath and said, "Randy, I must be crazy to talk about shame and rhetoric with you."
After that, Zhang Lisheng forced a smile at his stepfather and mother. "Uncle Lavin, mom, don't we still have to go to the New New York City tomorrow to see my grandfather who I've been wanting to see for the past few years but has always been inexplicably delayed?
I'll go to bed first, good night. "Then, he quickly walked on the cement road in the middle of the lawn to the wooden house not far away.
After a minute or two, the young man returned to his room in his mother's house and sat on the bed with a nostalgic look on his face. After being stunned for a long time, he sighed and shook his head hard. In the dark, he untied the scale leather belt around his waist and slowly unfolded it.
Habitually rubbing the natural lines on the surface of the leather that looked like a miniature map, he closed his eyes and focused on sensing the wizard gu with his mind in a slightly rusty manner. However, due to a sudden piercing pain in his palm, he abruptly retracted his hand and opened his eyes again.
"Is this the innate deterrence of a monster that can devour a planet?" Zhang Lisheng shook his palm and muttered, "Even a god would instinctively tremble. This kind of strength is really surprising.
Taotie, Taotie, I hope that the flesh and blood of those Taoist priests that are filled with supernatural energy and the Taoist's immortal mountain secret realm can make you grow a little more and slowly become the ultimate weapon for me to blackmail and deter the enemy … "
As the young man was speaking, a strange smile crept upon his face that was immersed in the dark. At the same time, in the underground of a skyscraper hanging with a 'bald eagle' emblem at the edge of the New Washington A city, seven to eight people with different expressions, skin colors, and temperaments were gathered in a secret meeting room. Alison pushed the door open and entered. Without saying a word, she walked directly to the only empty sofa in the north and sat down.
"… A religious organization called Wuli (Wuli) has already controlled the poor communities in more than ten of the largest cities in the old territories of the states of the Earth Federation. The number of believers is at least more than 10 million, and they have a tendency to expand abroad.
The god they worship is a monster with a human upper body and a python lower body covered with scales all over its body. Its religious symbol is' L '! "A middle-aged man who was speaking in the basement who had an ordinary appearance, body shape, and appearance, continued to speak as though he did not notice that someone had broken in." All of its characteristics are very similar to the indigenous beliefs of the Shrimp World No. 2.
Not only that, since more and more Wizard Li people have appeared on Earth, some of the Wuli believers have begun to claim that the god they believe in is the only true god of many worlds.
It can be preliminarily judged that this should be a spiritual invasion from the foreign world. "
"Wizard Li, Wuli, the pronunciation is indeed almost exactly similar. I can agree with your judgment of the so-called 'spiritual invasion,'" A thin yellow-skinned woman sitting opposite the middle-aged man frowned and said, "I can also understand why the refugees need the support of faith during the war.
However, Radar, it's no longer the barbaric era before BC after all. I don't understand why tens of millions of federal citizens would suddenly abandon their faith in God and convert to the Wuli religion that you mentioned.
The combination of a human and a python is obviously a symbol of cult belief. From a psychological point of view, it should be easy to induce the subconscious rejection of ordinary humans. If there's no temptation of practical benefits, it's hard for me to imagine how such a sect can spread as fast as you said. "
"You've reached the key point, camera." The middle-aged man nicknamed 'Radar' sighed. "The biggest reason why the Wuli religion can spread so quickly is that the priests of the sect have the supernatural power to control rivers, soil, and food making, which can meet the basic survival needs of the believers."
"What did you say? How is this possible? I thought the gods of the foreign world can't bestow power to the priests on Earth …"
"Food making? How do you do that? Radar, are you crazy …"
"Buddy, this is not a trivial matter that you can casually mention …" Radar's words caused the entire basement to burst into an uproar. It was only until a bald, big-faced, thick-lipped black man sitting on the main seat slapped the armrest of the sofa with force with a blank expression that everyone finally quieted down again.
"Radar, is there any clear evidence to support what you said just now? Is it possible that the priests of the Wuli religion are only good at some magic or illusion techniques, so they use these deceptive tricks to preach?" The burly man looked around and saw that no one was talking anymore, so he turned his gaze to the middle-aged man who spoke and asked in a deep voice.
"Boss, the information I submitted to you just now has a video of the Wuli religion performing a religious ceremony. I've taken it myself, and it's not edited at all. You can judge for yourself whether it's magic or divine power."
"Is that so?" The black man nodded and picked up a document from the black metal table by the side. After skimming through a few pages, he suddenly asked again, "Radar, are you sure that the first place where the Wuli religion appeared on Earth was New York and the time was 11 months ago?"
"The location can be completely confirmed, boss, but the time may be different by one or two months," The middle-aged man immediately replied cautiously.
The burly black man nodded again and put down the document in his hand before looking up at Alison. "Black Pearl, I remember that your current target, Dr. Gray, set off from New York City on Earth and secretly sneaked into Noah World as an engineer of a construction company 11 months ago, right?"
"Yes, boss," Alison replied succinctly.
"Is this another perfect coincidence in time and place? Every time a major event involving the Shrimp World No. 2 happens, such a coincidence will definitely happen. However, if there are too many coincidences, I'm afraid it's no longer a coincidence anymore …"
"According to Radar's report, I'm afraid the situation on Earth has already gone out of control.
Boss, if you judge that Dr. Gray is really so suspicious, I suggest that we take the necessary action against him immediately. " Seeing the black brawny man's iron-like face frown, a young Asian girl wearing a bright red skirt and a short T-shirt with two snow-white hemispheres exposed sitting on his right hand pondered for a moment. Then, she opened her mouth and made an extremely dangerous suggestion that she didn't realize she was extremely aware of.
