Chapter 496: Location of Home
Bian Yuelong, on the fifth floor of the dungeon, the door of the fortress command room was closed, and the heavy iron door was inlaid with a complex mechanical lock.
The room was dimly lit, with maps and tactical charts covering the walls, and various documents and communications equipment scattered on the central table.
Nanyang Yi sat at the table, his brows furrowed, rubbing his temples constantly. He was extremely busy with the fortress's affairs recently.
Plague Dragon Virus.
Fortress team personnel changes.
Beast tide on the front line.
The ruins of the gods are under pressure from public opinion.
Service-oriented AI is out of control across the board.
A quick knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. He raised his head, turned his gaze towards the door, and said in a low and majestic voice: "Come in."
The door slowly opened, and Tianshu 7th Captain Nanyang Hao hurried into the command room. His steps were firm and swift, his uniform was neat, but the expression on his face revealed a hint of urgency.
"The intelligence bug that was just captured." Nanyang Hao glanced around cautiously and said in a low voice, "Ayue's voice."
After the last sentence was spoken, Nanyang Yi's expression suddenly changed.
Nanyang Yue, the real name of Nanyang Ling/Hongye/Zijing, etc., chief agent Bian Yuelong.
According to public intelligence, he died ten years ago.
Nanyang Yi nodded, crushed the information bug, and released the audio stored inside.
【录于新灵历1048年6月12日，18点20分】
"Three days ago..." The two men looked uneasy as they recalled recent events.
The audio continues to play.
【I got the card】
After hearing these five short words, Nanyang Yi's eyes suddenly widened.
Nanyang Hao was trembling and speechless, his eyes were red: "Ayue he..."
[Where the card is placed at home]
"The location of home?" Nanyang Hao was stunned.
Nanyang Yi raised his hand slightly, signaling for silence.
[Tazna sends a division to chase me]
[I am now going to rush into the ruins of the gods]
The two of them frowned suddenly.
This was a very impulsive choice, and not like Nan Yangyue's style.
[I followed a very powerful duelist in]
[He should be able to break through the ruins]
[However, his physical condition is not good. If the ruins are not conquered in four days]
【do not come】
【do not come】
【do not come】
At the end of the audio, there is repeated advice.
【do not come】
"The ruins have been breached, General, send someone to pick him up!" Nanyang Hao said excitedly.
Bian Yuelong has been waiting for this day.
I waited for two hundred years.
The loaned [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] can now go home.
"No, that's not right." Nanyang Yi scratched his head in distress, feeling a sense of disharmony in his heart.
"No?" Nanyang Hao asked doubtfully, "Isn't the place where the card is hidden wrong?"
“Home location...”
"He's been back to Bian Yuelong?"
During the intelligence transmission process, certain encryption will be used to prevent interception by the enemy.
The location of home, ostensibly refers to his home in Bian Yuelong.
But he was away, how could he hide the card back to Bian Yuelong?
This is a place known only to his elder brother, Nanyang Yi.
"He is still in the ruins..." Nanyang Yi lowered his head and said tremblingly.
"The ruins have not been breached yet... The news outside is all fake."
"How is it possible?!" Nanyang Hao blurted out, "The whole world says it has been breached..."
The whole world outside is celebrating.
Hearing that there was a live magic card exhibition, countless people rushed over to have a sip of soup, or simply to join in the fun.
"The whole world may deceive me." Nanyang Yi held his heavy head and his voice was hoarse.
"He will not..."
He took a deep breath, his expression became resolute: "Seal the fortress, and stop all teams heading to Xumi Garden."
"Send a formation to the outskirts of Xumi Garden."
"No matter whose voice you hear, don't go in."
"Stay where you are and keep an eye out for women wearing red or purple."
Nanyang Hao was stunned when he heard the order. He never thought that the general would dare to make the decision to seal off the city based solely on Nanyang Yue's recording.
This would likely lead to a civil riot.
"The whole world could lie to me."
"He will not..."
Nanyang Yi’s inexplicable whispers continued to echo in Nanyang Hao’s mind.
"Yes!" He responded in a deep voice, nodded, and left the command room.
Nanyang Yi sighed deeply and glanced at the family photo on the table.
The voices of the past kept ringing in his mind.
...
"I want to be a general of a fortress when I grow up!"
"Oh--"
"Then I'll be the fortress's chief agent!"
"No, it's too dangerous. Mom won't allow it."
"Woo——"
...
"What's the difference..."
"No matter if I am a man or a woman, you are still my brother."
...
"Away from home."
“Home is in the heart!”
...
"The location of home..." Nanyang Yi murmured softly. He took a deep breath, retracted his gaze, and returned to his work.
A hero symbolizing light, radiating light and giving off heat.
The hero symbolizes darkness, carrying a heavy burden and moving forward.
God's ruins, the third research institute, the underground laboratory.
Surrounded by cold metal walls and complex instruments and equipment, the air smells slightly of dampness and disinfectant, the vents in the corners emit a low hum, and dim lights cast from the ceiling, illuminating this small space.
Luo Bai leaned against the wall and slowly opened his heavy eyelids, feeling dizzy.
His vision blurred and gradually focused on his front feet. His original pants had been burned, revealing blue-black poison spots. No matter how hard he tried, his feet could not move.
"Uh--"
He covered his dizzy head and tried to turn over. He caught a glimpse of his arm covered with white bandages from the corner of his eye, which made him gasp.
"I am..."
The lack of pain does not mean the lack of common sense.
He was covered in bandages and could faintly smell the scent of herbs. There was no doubt that he was seriously injured.
But my brain is in a mess and I can't remember it.
Yi Lan's eyelids twitched, as if she sensed something. She slowly opened her tired eyes and saw Luo Bai waking up, a relieved smile appeared on her face.
"You finally woke up."
Her lips were pale and her dry throat made a hoarse sound.
Luo Bai heard the familiar voice and turned his head sharply: "Ah - my baby."
His brows relaxed and he felt so safe for the first time.
Now that he is seriously injured, he really needs someone to take care of him.
"Who is your treasure!" Yilan said in a low voice, and her tired hands suddenly felt energetic.
Luo Bai wanted to argue with her, but his throat was extremely dry and it was difficult to speak.
"Table program?"
"Door?"
He meditated in his heart.
The world did not respond. The program's voice did not sound, and the wooden door leading to the card shop did not appear.
"Still in the ruins?!"
Luo Bai was suddenly startled and his whole body felt cold.
"Snapped--"
The bandage split slightly, but there was no pain.
"Don't move!" Yi Lan cried anxiously, "I worked so hard to tie it up for a long time..."
Luo Bai seemed not to hear, immersed in fragmented memories.
"【Manjushri】Failed to kill the God Pharaoh..."
"I lost..."
He lowered his head and murmured softly.
