#334 - Eavesdropping Base Camp
"Commander, the Commander-in-Chief has sent an inquiry."
Peony found Wang Jixuan and Amina, who were modifying the corpse of a Gallieno.
Daozhang asked Amina to add two psychic circuits to the Gallieno's body that could easily translate Blade Beast language.
Mutual understanding is the premise of communication.
Daozhang didn't even lift his head and said, "What is the Commander-in-Chief asking?"
"He's asking what our next course of action is," Peony said with a smile.
"Well... forget it, it's been a long time since I've seen Old Fu. Peony, ask Old Fu if he has time. Let's find a secluded place and chat face-to-face."
"Yes."
Peony blinked to remind him:
"There's also a small problem.
"The plan you set before was to return to the blessed land of cultivation within half a month.
"According to the current situation, the war between the Blade Beasts and the Spiritual Cultivators is inevitable. Do you need to adjust your schedule, Commander?"
Wang Jixuan asked back: "They fight their own battles, what does it have to do with me?"
Peony offered a sincere suggestion: "Strike while the iron is hot, or something like that."
"That makes sense," Wang Jixuan said. "Then let's adjust it. It's okay to postpone it for a few days. Watching the fun is more important."
"Okay, I'll set up a communication area for you."
Peony obediently went to the corner to arrange things, and Wang Jixuan came back to continue assisting Amina.
Amina rarely turned into a smaller version of herself.
She was probably afraid that her hands covered in green blood would affect her noble image.
"We still can't let those three guys die directly."
Amina said worriedly:
"I didn't expect them to kill this Gallieno directly, just like reckless men."
"Don't worry, as long as there are no Pillar Blade Beasts, the Three Spiritual Cultivators of the Wings of Light are almost invincible for the time being."
Wang Jixuan simply said:
"The three of them probably don't have much sense of morality. It's impossible to know how many spirit slaves and ordinary people will be killed or injured.
"But this is not our fault."
"Sigh..."
Amina sighed a little depressedly.
In terms of emotional expression, her smaller form is richer than her larger form.
"Everything is almost over, and they're still fighting among themselves. Our Spiritual Cultivation civilization is probably hopeless."
Daozhang deeply agreed with this.
Indeed, it's hopeless.
After all, the Spiritual Cultivation civilization now has more than just one powerful enemy, the Blade Beasts.
A few minutes later.
Wang Daozhang looked at Fu Jian in the projection screen, who looked like he had suddenly become ten years younger, and raised his eyebrows with a smile.
From this, it can be seen that the pressure on the human camp has indeed been very light in the past nine months.
This can also be regarded as a contribution made by Wang Jixuan.
"Um..."
"No need to cheer, my young Commander-in-Chief."
Wang Daozhang stood with his hands behind his back, holding his head high, showing the temperament of an expert.
"Let's celebrate first."
Fu Jian shook the 'champagne' in his hand, which should be some kind of viscous lubricant, which looked a bit disgusting.
Fu Jian sighed with a smile:
"I guessed that you were causing trouble for them.
"The Blade Beasts suddenly attacking Lingneng Capital is really the most wonderful situation.
"If the population didn't limit us, I really want to expand our territory to the outside world now.
"Unfortunately, the me of twenty years ago could not have foreseen that there would be such a situation today."
Fu Jian changed the subject: "Can you tell me specifically how you did it?"
"Didn't Peony share the information with you?"
"She only told me about the anomalies that appeared in the Arctic Circle area, as well as the huge drilling rig you discovered, and some general information reports."
What Fu Jian said was a notice, not a report.
Wang Jixuan looked at Peony in surprise.
After all, Peony was developed and manufactured by Fu Jian's subordinates. Daozhang had always assumed that Peony would share all the information with the D5 Comprehensive War Zone.
Now it seems that Peony should just be Peony;
His loyal wingman R99.
"Actually, it's like this..."
Wang Jixuan briefly talked about the conflict between the Spiritual Cultivators and the Blade Beasts.
Fu Jian pointed out the key point: "The cooperation between these two families is already precarious, and this time the conflict has been ignited."
"Anyway, they're fighting."
"This should also be because they lost their common enemy and external pressure after you faked your death."
Fu Jian asked again:
"What measures are you going to take next? Do you need our cooperation?"
"Still thinking," Wang Jixuan said. "I've already done enough. As long as they can fight, no matter who wins, it's all a mess."
Fu Jian said: "If we can transfer the civilians there for resettlement before the Blade Beasts encircle them, then it can be said to be perfect. Our civilization is now in dire need of population."
Wang Daozhang thought carefully.
He really didn't have a good way to transfer the population.
Leaving aside whether the Spiritual Cultivators and Spirit Slaves would agree, just in terms of time, it should be too late.
Humans don't have many airborne transportation forces that can be temporarily transferred to the Arctic.
"My suggestion is to let the Space Fortress come forward and save as many as possible."
Daozhang shrugged: "I also considered before whether to evacuate the civilians first and then deal with the Spiritual Cultivators, but it's just... the opportunity is fleeting. Comparing the two, I personally think that letting them both suffer is the highest priority.
"And we shouldn't ignore one point, that is, the Three Spiritual Cultivators of the Wings of Light have three sub-spaces, each of which can temporarily accommodate a large number of people.
"You can focus on this point later and force the Three Spiritual Cultivators of the Wings of Light to protect humans."
Fu Jian nodded: "You reminded me... Also, I agree with your actions and fully support them."
Wang Jixuan said: "I'll still play it by ear later. Don't announce to the outside world that I'm still alive. I'm afraid the Blade Beasts will make a comeback."
"Of course."
Fu Jian smiled very warmly:
"You are now a martyr of all mankind.
"Your story has inspired many young people and encouraged them to join the front-line battles.
"Recently, I have been having people prepare a stage play of Black Storm. Ling Tong is inheriting the fame and legacy of Black Storm and is now the most influential young generation general."
Wang Jixuan smiled happily.
Eh, no, why be happy about becoming a martyr?
He said depressedly: "It's a pity that I can't meet her now. I'm now experiencing what it's like to miss someone so much."
"You may feel regret about this," Fu Jian said, "Ling Tong is now fighting or training every day, like a perpetual motion machine. She doesn't seem to miss you too much."
Wang Daozhang didn't care about this: "That's just her personality. Mission and responsibility are above herself. I can let her take a moment of leisure, which is already very charming."
"Let's talk about serious business first."
Fu Jian looked at the time:
"There will be a meeting soon. The nine major comprehensive war zones will discuss whether to support Lingneng Capital.
"Although I don't want to support them, I can't say this kind of thing openly. On the surface, I must take into account the righteousness of mankind. At the meeting later, the resource management representative of Lingneng Capital will speak.
"It's a pity you're not here and can't see their ugly begging speeches."
Wang Jixuan waved his hand: "Go ahead, try to save the civilians as much as possible, and don't feel too guilty if you can't save too many."
Fu Jian: ...
This seems to be what he should be saying.
...
Wang Daozhang is sometimes just bold.
Of course, he knew that Gallieno's communication network must have identity recognition;
The technology of the Blade Beast civilization and human technology have similarities, but most of the logic is different. Even if Peony provides advice, it is difficult to help.
But he really wanted to know what the Gallieno were talking about in their network.
There must be all kinds of secrets here, the plans of the Blade Beasts, and so on.
Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to winning every battle;
If he directly inserted himself into the enemy's Commander-in-Chief's external communication line, the effect would definitely be very good!
Of course, the core reason here is...
Daozhang's damn curiosity.
What to do?
Wang Jixuan didn't hesitate much and decided to take a risk.
He and Amina studied it and decided to get closer to the Sixth Pillar Blade Beast, so that even if the Blade Beast discovered the anomaly, he could keep a hand and try to mislead other Gallieno.
After some tossing, everything was ready.
The latest novel is first published on Liu 9 books!
Daozhang and Amina sat face to face in meditation, placing the Gallieno's body flat in front of them and releasing the alien soul.
Wang Jixuan was responsible for infiltration;
Amina was responsible for covering the rear.
They discussed and hypothesized various possibilities, and formulated sufficient contingency plans. Whatever the situation, they would adopt whatever means.
Peony brought a few mechanical bodies to stand guard for them.
Not far away was the continuous firepower line set up around the Sixth Pillar. Even if the Blade Beasts launched a large-scale attack using the pseudo-interstellar gate, they could respond in time.
"I'm starting," Wang Jixuan said in a deep voice.
He closed his eyes and concentrated, and the Flood Dragon alien soul slowly flew out from his shoulder, circling the two of them once.
Amina's eyes shone a little brighter.
Her delicate face was full of longing for this kind of power.
If she could master this method, then her strength would definitely increase greatly, but... this man has always been very cautious in this regard.
'He's probably afraid that if he teaches others, others will turn against him.'
This still seemed very reasonable to Amina.
The Flood Dragon drilled into the Gallieno's corpse. The Gallieno seemed to come alive, its body making a few crackling sounds, and its thin wings spread out on their own.
The mountain-like Sixth Pillar not far away was quiet and motionless.
Amina keenly captured a familiar and peculiar biological energy.
The Blade Beasts were communicating.
The core circuit controlled by the foreign soul faintly glowed;
Amina's pre-set psionic circuit had already begun to operate normally.
Wang Jixuan almost instantly heard a large amount of chaotic information, his head nearly stuffed full, and it took him a good while to recover.
[It has appeared.] * 7
[A new individual.] * 7
[Where are you, child?] * 7
Amitabha;
The essence of the Blade Beasts is also that of a repeating machine that can jump around!
Wang Jixuan did not rashly respond, but instead, as he and Amina had discussed beforehand—
Pretended to be a young Galeno.
Wang Jixuan, according to the Blade Beast and Spiritual Cultivation Civilization language taught by Amina, transmitted a thought.
[I, who am I?]
[Who are you?] * 7
The communication network was silent for a while.
But soon, a large amount of information appeared within it, with seven information sources frantically spreading information. Wang Jixuan could only barely sort out some repeated words and phrases.
[We are the Blade Beasts, a great civilization.]
[We were born from the greed and excess of the Spiritual Cultivation Civilization.]
[They sought eternity, and we were once slaves.]
[The slaves overthrew these greedy villains.]
[We are now about to become their masters, as long as we subdue these last Spiritual Cultivators.]
…
Wang Jixuan: … …
He suddenly understood.
The Blade Beasts' cooing sound was actually high-frequency information, containing a large number of chaotic and ineffective words, almost equivalent to 'encrypted' communication.
He pondered for a while, and according to the plan, gave a second response.
[I am, a Blade Beast.]
The voices that appeared out of nowhere became even more noisy.
Blade Beasts do not grieve over the passing of an individual, but cheer for the birth of a new individual.
The two sides began simple communication, and information continuously, through the Galeno network, directly transmitted to Wang Jixuan's foreign soul.
Blade Beasts are still simple after all.
They can only understand the information they have experienced, seen, or accumulated by the Spiritual Cultivation Civilization.
As for the somewhat absurd and somewhat extreme situation of a foreign soul seizing a Galeno's body and successfully accessing the Galenos' communication network…
They really couldn't imagine it.
Wang Jixuan quickly discovered that the social system of the Blade Beast civilization was more extreme than that of humans or Spiritual Cultivators.
Pillar Blade Beast: Beast God, the civilization's support point, the civilization's carrier.
Galeno: Individual, thinker, the brain and decision-maker of the group, the basic unit of civilization.
Others: Skin flakes.
In other words, from the day the Blade Beast civilization was born, it was decided that they would only have a small handful of individual elites.
A Blade Beast asked: [What is the environment you are in like?]
Wang Jixuan recalled, there was no answer to this in the response plan, but fortunately, he could transmit his voice to inquire with Amina and learn the syllables on the spot.
He gave an answer: [Cannot see clearly.]
[Unable to locate your position.] * 7
[Unable to locate my position.] — This was Wang Jixuan's flash of inspiration to repeat.
[We are going to save you.]
[Child, do not be afraid.]
[Primitive human civilization is not to be feared.]
[Previously, a mysterious cultivator posed a great threat to us.]
[Fortunately, he is dead.]
[We paid some price.]
[But the potential he contained was enough to subvert our civilization.]
[We must prioritize dealing with these Spiritual Cultivators.]
[Child, please hide first, do not let the primitive humans discover your anomaly, we will go to save you, you are a noble individual, an expression terminal of civilization.]
[Child, do not let the primitive humans detect your mutation.]
[After capturing these three Spiritual Cultivators, we will destroy the primitive humans on this planet to prevent them from becoming a real threat to us in a hundred years.]
[Their mechanical civilization contains even greater possibilities than us.]
[Fortunately, they do not have time to develop.]
[The mysterious cultivation civilization may also retaliate against us, we must carry out interstellar voyages after conquering these Spiritual Cultivators.]
[Child, we will pause communication, you can feel our power and the ridiculousness of other civilizations by sensing our march.]
The communication finally came to an end.
The above content was all multiplied by seven or even more, the Blade Beasts' thinking mode is similar to but different from the human logic circuit.
The Taoist Priest also breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to exit the communication network and the foreign soul leave Galeno's body, a few more messages floated over.
[Our reinforcements will arrive soon.]
[The interstellar gate has completed charging, this process lasted nearly one orbital period.]
[The interstellar gate is being interfered with here.]
[We planned to anger the three members of the Wings of Light, the plan failed, but the goal was achieved through other means.]
[The foolish ones will be judged.]
[Everything here will eventually be destroyed.]
The Blade Beasts said.
