Inside The Black Mist Chapter 155: Deep in the dark
"Adjutant, you go down first." Fei Mei's voice was not high, but her tone was unquestionable.
The adjutant quickly gave a military salute, gestured, and transferred several soldiers on guard nearby.
Therefore, only the female general and the figure behind the screen remained in this open space.
From the screen of the electronic board, a deep and majestic voice sounded: "You are injured."
"It's not a problem, it's just a minor injury." The corners of Fei Mei's mouth curled up slightly, like a stubborn child trying to show strength to his father.
The figure on the screen turned around, but he was too far away from the camera, so he couldn't see his appearance clearly.
"You are still like this. You have been like this since you were a child. Big things turn into small things, and small things turn into nothing."
Fei Mei said disapprovingly: "It's not a serious injury, but you, have you taken your medicine on time recently?"
The person on the screen coughed a few times in embarrassment: "Of course, you don't need to ask about this kind of thing."
Fei Mei snorted: "You forgot to take your medicine again, foster father. I've already said that you need a wife."
There was another dry cough from the electronic board: "Compared to me, you need a husband, right? Feimei, it's not that your adoptive father said you, you are old and not young, so why don't you think about it?"
"The other half of the adoptive father has not yet been found, how can I patronize and seek my own happiness." Fei Mei smiled slyly.
"Hmph, you little fox, you know how to use me as a shield!"
Fei Mei pursed her lips and smiled lightly: "But what I'm talking about is the truth, foster father, can't you think about it? Last year, the Yun family came to propose a marriage. I think their third lady is pretty good."
"Nonsense!" The city lord said in a serious tone, "That girl is a little younger than you, and she is almost my daughter. If I really marry her, what will other people think of me?"
"Besides, is that marrying a wife? That's raising a daughter, right? You are enough for my little ancestor in my family. I can't stand another one."
Fei Mei laughed heartily.
The people on the screen also laughed, and the two laughed loudly. After a while, the laughter subsided.
The city lord said: "So, the matter has been settled?"
Fei Mei nodded: "I personally beheaded the black prince and watched him disintegrate. Don't worry, foster father, there will be no black king."
"At least, not this time."
The city lord said happily: "That's good, you did a good job on this matter. Feimei, with this battle achievement, when you take over as the city lord, there will be less opposition."
Fei Mei sighed lightly: "Father, must I succeed the city lord? Don't you think, Commander Xuan, Commander Cao or Minister Wade, they are more qualified to take this position."
The person in the electronic board said lightly: "I have also considered what you said. They are indeed qualified, but qualifications alone are not enough. The most important thing is that their abilities have obvious flaws."
"Old man's combat strength is definitely enough, and he also has a lot of military achievements. But his violent temper is already quite reluctant to be a commander. Let him be the lord of the city, and the sky castle will be messed up the next day."
"Cao Gang's personality is stable, but he wins because of his stability, and he also loses because of his stability. Our Sky Castle is in a period of development. As the owner of the city, we need aggressiveness and decisive courage. These two things, It is exactly what Cao Gang lacks."
"As for Wade, he was pretty good before, but he is not a sublimator. And after the incident seventeen years ago, he has already become prejudiced against sublimators. Among the three, he is the most unsuitable to sit. Up to the position of the city lord."
The figure said in a deep voice: "Xiaomei, I have no children, and you are the only adopted daughter. I brought you up with my own hands. I know your temper and ability very well. Looking at the whole Sky Fortress, there is no one He is more suitable than you to succeed the city lord."
Fei Mei lowered her eyes: "Even if you say so, I..."
"Don't worry, my adoptive father will definitely pave the way for you, so that you can sit in this position. After you take over my burden, I can go to the beach to build a house, fish every day, and raise my family. Dog, enjoy retirement."
Fei Mei smiled reluctantly: "Father, you are still young, so it would be too early to say retirement."
The city lord laughed and said: "I'm not young anymore, look at my memory now, it's no better than before."
Fei Mei laughed a few times with him, and said again: "By the way, adoptive father. Before he died, the black prince said something. He used our language."
There was a moment of silence on the electronic board before the city lord said, "What did he say?"
"He said that they have entered behind the door, that is to say, they have been to our world."
"He also said that there is more than one black prince like him. Father, tell me, could there be a black king born in other places in the reverse world?"
The figure on the screen sighed softly: "The reverse world is so vast. What we have explored and what we have mastered is just a drop in the ocean. Even in other places we don't know, it is not surprising that a black king is born."
"However, even if other black kings appear, it will not be an easy task for it to find Krafft Gate."
"That's right." Fei Mei nodded lightly, "So far, in the Adverse Realm including other numbers, I haven't heard that the black people have vehicles that can move long distances, and even black people with the ability to fly They are very rare.”
"But..."
"I know what you are worried about." The city lord said in a deep voice, "If you stop exploring the reverse world, the danger of being invaded by black people will be greatly reduced."
"But Feimei, even if we don't explore the Negative Realm, other fortress cities will continue to explore. As long as there are pillars of star marrow in the Negative Realm, there are resources, technologies, etc. that we don't have. The exploration of the reverse world will not end."
"Under this premise, we cannot stand still. The price of stopping is to be replaced by other cities, or even destroyed!"
Fei Mei's eyes darkened: "I see, foster father."
The city lord hummed: "There's nothing to do over there, just come back. When you were recuperating, you happened to play chess with me. I have to say that this kind of game in the reverse world is quite interesting, but it's a pity that opponents are hard to find. "
Fei Mei smiled and said, "Isn't Commander Chu very keen on this kind of game? Or, Commander Cao will do too."
The city lord waved his hand: "Don't worry, that stinky chess basket of Lao Xuan, he regrets every move. I almost got into a fight with him once. As for Cao Gang, playing chess with him, I might as well find an artificial intelligence to play chess. .”
"That's it, you come back quickly, the righteous father will cook by himself, and cook a table of delicious food to reward our general."
Fei Mei agreed with a smile, and then ended the communication.
When she raised her head again, her smile faded away. There is a boundless world in front of him, and who knows what things are staring at the world outside the door in the dark depths.
......
Sky Fort.
When Tianyang passed through the Clough Gate and walked up to the transit platform of the fort, the bright sun shone so brightly that the young man could barely open his eyes.
Being pushed from behind, Tianyang turned his head, and Kunlan, who was wrapped in bandages all over his body, stared at him and said, "Don't block the way, Baimao. Don't think that if you carry me behind your back, I will let you go. I Tell you, no way!"
After the guy said this, he ran away with a gloomy atmosphere.
Tianyang pointed to his nose and said, "Have I offended him again?"
"That little blue hair has always been conceited, and now he has been helped by people he hates more than once, and he feels awkward." Leaning on a cane, Cangdu jumped out of the gate with one foot.
Tianyang wanted to help him, but Cangdu shook his head and said, "I'm not that delicate, don't touch me."
"You still have the nerve to talk about others, but you are so awkward to death." Ji Yu said calmly from behind.
Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, Cang Du jumped up and shouted: "Where am I awkward, no matter how awkward I am, I am not as awkward as you."
Ji Yu spread his hands: "Why am I so awkward."
Cang Du pointed at Tianyang: "You give your first kiss to a brat, I don't believe you are not awkward."
"What! Jiyu, did you attack Tianyang?" Han Shu walked out from the Clough Gate, so surprised that he dropped his cigarette.
Two patches of blush suddenly flew up on Ji Yu's face: "That was an accident! It was just a moment of excitement! And the captain, do you have to shout so loudly!"
Han Shu looked around, and many people looked at their team, the captain coughed a few times: "I'm not too shocked, after all, Ji Yu, you never see yourself as a woman, I thought You won't like boys in your life."
Ji Yu's face turned even redder: "Who doesn't see herself as a woman, why don't you say that you stinky men don't know how to appreciate it at all. Also, I don't like Tian Yang, absolutely not!"
"Why not blushing without you." Han Shu grabbed his messy hair, "Okay, okay, I'm back, everyone should take a good rest for a few days. Give me a rest for a week. After a week, go back to the team building to report, I will withdraw first, bye..."
The Raven team disbanded on the transfer platform, and Tian Yang rode his unicycle back to the dormitory.
After a series of access control checks, the electronic lock was unlocked, and Tian Yang walked into the entrance.
After the door closed, the boy found the room eerily quiet.
Although the home smart system has started the exhaust function and opened the windows automatically, the air in the room is still very stuffy.
Tianyang put down his luggage, put the sword on the wall, walked through the entrance, and whispered to the empty living room: "I'm back."
No one answered.
He stood in the living room for a few seconds, then suddenly picked up the sword and left the apartment.
It was evening when he came back again, Tianyang opened the door, and asked the delivery workers to bring in potted plants one by one. According to Tian Yang's instructions, large and small potted plants were placed in the living room, bedroom, and balcony, and even two pots were placed in the kitchen.
Finally, a fish tank was placed in the corner of the living room, and I watched all kinds of small fish swimming freely in it. Tianyang felt that his apartment finally had some vitality.
The next day, after the boy had breakfast, he threw some feed into the fish tank.
The communicator rang. It was a real-time communication. The sender was Han Shu, requesting a connection.
After Tianyang answered, Han Shu's voice sounded on the communicator: "Tianyang, are you free today? Do something for me..."
