Chapter 1258
1258 No compromise to speak of
Jiang Xiao, who had partic.i.p.ated in two battles, stayed in Liaodong for the time being and defended a region.
At the same time, he also started a new plan.
Although the battle mission of the Army was urgent, Jiang Xiao believed that the Marine camp would be able to hold back for a while under his thunderous means. At the very least, the coastlines of China would be stable for a while.
Of course, Jiang Xiao would also create a few more earth xiaos to guard the southern coastline of China. He would leave all the information reporting, communication, and guarding to the bait.
!!
At this moment, Jiang Xiao, the decoy who had been staying beside second last, also found his so-called superior.
As soon as Jiang Xiao’s original body appeared on Earth, the approaching star Army had already pa.s.sed the news to second last.
She also informed Jiang Xiao, the bait in the ruins of calamity and shadow, immediately. However, she did not expect to be asked to stay.
Her ruins of calamity and shadow was obviously a safe place, and they did not have to worry about the walls having ears when they spoke.
After listening to Jiang Xiao’s report, second last finally realized that he was about to make a big move.
Furthermore … It was likely to be a big move that would affect the entire world!
Second last was rather curious about Di Xiao, who had appeared in Lu Dong’s place. However, at this moment, she suppressed her doubts and quickly followed Jiang Xiao’s train of thought while listening to his report.
Everyone’s attention was still on the battle between the land and sea Camps, but Jiang Xiao had his eyes on Hopkins.
Now that he had the confidence … He was ready to fight Hopkins!
Second last crossed her arms and leaned against the wall of air in the ruins of calamity and shadow. She looked at Jiang Xiao, the bait, who was sitting on the ground in front of her, and nodded gently as he spoke.
After a long while, she said,”in this case, you already have the ability to capture him.”
Not only that, you even found a way to hurt him. ”
“Yes, before returning to the earth dimension, I used the star martial law to fill the star martial law up. It gave me a second enlightenment and allowed me to understand the secret of the fifth page.” Jiang Xiao pursed his lips and said,”there’s a trace to follow.”
Jiang Xiao then raised a finger and said,””The first page of the ‘star martial history’ is about improving the level of star power and stimulating the human body’s potential.
The second page was about lowering the level of star power and weakening the human body’s potential.
The third page was relatively balanced. The function of weakening and activating Star Slots coexisted.
The fourth page was about understanding the essence of star techniques and transforming any STAR technique into pure star power for output or resistance.
As for the fifth page, it is …”
Following Jiang Xiao’s train of thought, second last suddenly said,”Understand the essence of star power and transform All Star power into various star techniques.”
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
Second last suddenly felt offended …
Jiang Xiao looked at her as if he was looking at an idiot.
In his eyes, two words were clearly written: How naive! Inexperienced!
Second last squinted her long and narrow eyes slightly.
Jiang Xiao lowered his eyes obediently. At this moment, he suddenly transformed into third last …
“The fifth page is also reversed,” he toot.”It can crush the effect of the fourth page and make everything return to normal.”
Those who didn’t have the star Warrior Chronicles …
He would always be at the first level, where he saw mountains as mountains and water as water.
Star techniques were star techniques, and their effects were also effects.
As for those who owned the star Warrior history, after opening page four, they would arrive at the second level:
It was not a mountain, it was not water.
All Star techniques and effects could be understood as pure star power.
After opening the fifth page of the star Warrior history, he came to the third level:
The mountains were still mountains, and the water was still water.
There was a reason for the existence of so many star techniques in this world.
It would be irresponsible to erase the effects of All Star techniques maliciously and trace everything back to the source as “one.”
When a Hundred Flowers bloomed, the world would be real and beautiful.
The existence of page five of the star Warrior history would not have any effect on ordinary people. However, it was a destructive blow to the people on the “second level”.
Those who were arrogant and thought that they had seen through everything in the star martial world would eventually understand the reason for the existence of star techniques.
Upon hearing Jiang Xiao’s words, second last said with a sullen expression,”If the fifth page has such an effect, Hopkins shouldn’t have given you the star Warrior history.”
Jiang Xiao said,[in fact, Hopkins shouldn’t have given me the star Warrior history from the very beginning.]
“Mm …” Second last nodded in agreement and said,”indeed.”
Jiang Xiao said,”in the past, I didn’t know why he gave me the star martial arts journal and urged me to study it. Now, after I transformed the stars into martial arts for the second time, I finally understand.”
After the second enlightenment, not only did I see through the fifth page, but I also saw half of the sixth page. Although it’s only half, it can express a lot. ”
“What’s that?”second last asked.
Jiang Xiao said,’a body isn’t a human structure diagram, but a human sh.e.l.l.
Even though it’s only the lower half of its body, one can clearly see its skin that’s like the cracked earth and pieces of scorched earth. It looks very sad. ”
Jiang Xiao then sighed gently and said,””It’s only half a picture, but when I looked at it, I had an inexplicable feeling.
It was a kind of … It was an irreversible, irredeemable sense of powerlessness.
I don’t know why, but when I see this half of the picture, I feel a sense of guilt. ”
Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but grin and said,””F * ck, it’s really weird, like I owe someone.”
“Language,” second last said.
“Oh.” Jiang Xiao said with a sullen expression,”that old fellow’s real purpose is probably to let me understand the last two pages.
He’s probably been plagued by this extreme mental state for several decades and is about to die again, which is why he urged me to help him comprehend the star map.
However, I have a feeling that the last two pages aren’t about turning stars into martial arts. They’re more about a sad story. That’s probably why Hopkins’s crazy search for the outside world.
He could clearly feel that it was not a human body structure diagram, but a life, a person.
This half of the picture was like a granny standing at the end of a bridge under a tree hat, constantly beckoning me to explore the mystery of its existence.
Ever since I saw this half of the picture, I’ve been filled with guilt and the desire to explore it. It’s a terrible feeling. I saw Xia Yan just now and bickered with her, which made me feel better. ”
Second last was speechless.
“Forget it, forget it. Let’s go back to Hopkins.” Jiang Xiao shook his head vigorously and said,”such a person will never give me a second chance to arrest him. There’s no doubt that once I fail, I’ll incur his terrifying revenge.
He was a cruel Emperor-type character who was extremely selfish and would do anything for his own goals.
Ever since he appeared in front of me, he has been wearing a hypocritical mask and threatening me to do everything he asks of me. You know how he threatened me.
You and I both know that once he can’t get what he wants, he’ll definitely take action.
This is an unstable bomb. Age is the last straw that will crush him. We don’t know when he will explode.
Now, he thought he was close to the truth and was still exploring the Dragon Cave. Once he spent a certain amount of time and energy and failed to get what he wanted, it would be the beginning of a real disaster.
We have to take advantage of this moment to resolve this crisis. The battle between the land and sea is already a headache. If we add him, who doesn’t care about anything, to the mix, it will be terrible.
This kind of person was definitely the kind of person who would let the world die with him. The only thing that kept him sane was that he still had a glimmer of hope and a goal. ”
Second last followed Jiang Xiao’s train of thought and could tell that Jiang Xiao was very eager and determined!
During Jiang Xiao’s long speech, she also deeply realized the seriousness of the problem.
Even an upright and kind person might not turn out to be like this after all their hopes were shattered.
Not to mention Hopkins?
With a single thought, Hopkins could kill all the Golden feathers who had followed him in his conquest.
With a single thought, he could imprison his closest comrades and deprive them of their entire lives.
No matter how friendly Hopkins was to Jiang Xiao, he had to figure out his purpose!
Why was Hopkins so friendly to a stranger? Such a ‘pulling up seedlings to help them grow’?
He could even imprison Gaia, who was his most beloved woman. What was Jiang Xiao to him?
Hopkins had a human body, and he was old. Gaia still had a long life. Why should she be imprisoned in the isolated world of the seamounts?
Hopkins didn’t care. He didn’t care at all. He was the center of the world, and everything in the world was for him. He could do whatever he wanted.
Second last said,”in that case, you should cater to his goals and give him hope.”
You can now teleport across dimensions, but he can ‘t.
You can lie to him and take him to the outside world to see, but throw him into one of your calamity s.p.a.ces. Whether you kill him or imprison him, it’s up to you. ”
Jiang Xiao frowned and sat on the ground, his fingers clenched together while he was in a dilemma.
After thinking for a while, he said,”I can bring him along for the teleportation, but the problem is …” He’s the same as me, we both have top-tier clones, at least nine.
Although the nine clones don’t have the highest quality star techniques, they have the star map from the star martial arts history and can still bring danger to this world. ”
Upon hearing her words, second last looked a little embarra.s.sed, but she turned to look at Jiang Xiao and said,””After the main body dies, will the Jiaoyang grade clone and bait still exist?”
Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment and subconsciously placed his hands on the ground to support himself while s.h.i.+fting his b.u.t.t backward …
This girl, don’t tell me she’s trying to experiment on me?
Second last looked at Jiang Xiao silently and said,””I can’t hurt you anymore.”
“Uh …” Jiang Xiao scratched his head awkwardly and said,”it’s all because you bullied the weak and caused others to live in your shadow for the rest of their lives.”
Unwilling to bear such a heavy punishment, second last said,””We’ve only known each other for five years. ”
“Oh?” Jiang Xiao blinked and asked with a strange expression,”why do I feel like we’ve known each other for a lifetime?”
Second last opened her mouth slightly but didn’t say anything.
Perhaps, to the two of them, too many things had happened in these short five years. It was indeed a long time.
If it was to be written as a story, it would probably be four million words …
“That, serious business. Let’s talk about serious business!” Jiang Xiao came back to his senses and said hurriedly.
“Since there’s no way to verify it, then we’ll have to prepare for both eventualities.” Second last said,”I think most of Hopkins’s avatars should be in the Dragon Cave at this time, helping him explore the only open dimensional s.p.a.ce in the world.
After all, it’s been so many years. He’s finally found some clues, so he’ll definitely do his best. ”
“Mm …” Jiang Xiao nodded and agreed with second last’s deduction. He said,”regardless of whether there’s a clone of Hopkins in the Dragon Cave, I’m sure that his original body is in the Dragon Cave.”
“Huh?” second last asked.
Jiang Xiao said,’as I said just now, avatars can’t improve the quality of star techniques. Therefore, Hopkins, who had the Seamount world, must be in his true form.
The Dragon Cave’s guards have also stated that ever since he entered, he has never come out. ”
Second last also provided Jiang Xiao with a piece of information.””Ever since Hopkins entered the Dragon Cave, he has been on a path of no return.
Now, there were soldiers guarding the entrance of the Dragon Cave 24 hours a day, opening the s.p.a.ce door close to the entrance.
Hopkins can’t get out. If he tries, he’ll be imprisoned in the soldier’s s.p.a.ce. ”
Jiang Xiao said,’that’s why I’m hesitant.
Could he put all his clones in the Dragon Cave?
Such a person would definitely leave a way out for himself. How could he not have antic.i.p.ated this situation?
Therefore, when he wants to come out of the Dragon Cave, he’ll definitely use the clone he left on earth to cause trouble in the Dragon Cave to ensure that his main body can come out safely. ”
Second last said in a hoa.r.s.e voice,”then go and destroy the Dragon Cave. Force him out. Force the clone he left on earth to appear.”
Use your bait to set up an ambush in the Dragon Cave base. Use your fifth page to crush the fourth page of his clone and end everything. ”
Jiang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and said,’all of this …’ I’m afraid they’ll have to execute it at the same time!”
“Yes.” Second last nodded and said,”after capturing his clones, we can kill his original body and see if those clones will die.”
Jiang Xiao thought for a while and said,’well …’ The good thing was that after the collapse of the Dragon Cave, a disaster of that level was not something that page four of the star martial arts history could withstand.
The s.p.a.ce rifts that are torn everywhere have nothing to do with star techniques. It’s purely the collapse of s.p.a.ce. Those who can survive definitely didn’t rely on their strength, but on luck. ”
Second last thought about the plan carefully and said after a long while,””We can’t be sure how many avatars he left on earth, but this plan is already relatively perfect.
Every minute we waste here, Hopkins may come out of the Dragon Cave.
Once he’s out, it’ll be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Even if you have the ability to hurt him or arrest him, you can’t stop him from causing trouble. ”
“In fact … I can also negotiate with him and really take him to find …” Before Jiang Xiao could finish his sentence, second last interrupted him!
“Stop,” he said.
Jiang Xiao raised his head.
Second last squatted down and looked at Jiang Xiao with a burning gaze.””Hopkins isn’t an ordinary person, nor is he an ordinary criminal.
We can’t negotiate with this kind of person.
Today, he threatened you to do such a thing to achieve his goal. Tomorrow, he would be able to take this piece of land and ask you to do anything.
As long as you still care about him, he can get everything he wants from you.
His selfish desires and ambitions could not be satisfied by your compromise.
A compromise once meant a lifetime of compromise. This was a path of no return.
To minimize the risks and dangers is the greatest responsibility we bear for this world. ”
Looking at second last’s serious and serious expression, Jiang Xiao nodded silently.
Second last said in a hoa.r.s.e and determined voice,””Let’s go, I’ll go with you. ”
