Chapter 042: Men in Black
"It seems that you still haven't understood the first lesson I taught you." Lei Che shook his head.
"You mean, as long as you are strong enough, you can even break away from the national system and become a thief, and no one can control you?" Shen Zheng asked in surprise.
"The country is just a combination of interests." Lei Che said seriously, "The rights that citizens think they have are just a kind of game rules that can be changed and distorted at any time in the eyes of the strong people who really control the country. When people gain truly powerful power, they can dominate themselves and even others. Thieves can also establish their own country."
"Thieves establish their own country?" This is too far from the world Shen Zheng knows.
"You haven't gotten rid of the mortal mindset." Lei Che said, "Remember, when a person's power reaches a certain level, he will no longer care about the power of the country. Not to mention the star master, a bug controller can already ignore the law, because no one dares to really be his enemy. For example, in our country of Longxing, there are only two bug controllers, one is our dean and the other is the commander-in-chief. So what if there are one or two bug controllers in a certain bandit group? Then they are a force that is equal to us." [
"This world is too crazy." Shen Zheng sighed.
"The world you are familiar with belongs to the ancient Earth." Lei Che said, "That world where everyone is equal and the world structure is not too abnormal no longer exists. After the insect tide appeared, I think all civilizations in the universe may have changed... Let's not talk about this. In short, this group of thieves will not give up and will definitely come again. But the academy does not want to cause panic and anxiety among the students, so it only selects the best students and tells them the truth about this "training" and lets them take on the real vigilance task. However, the important areas are directly under the charge of the instructors, and the areas you are responsible for patrolling are basically safe."
"This is really a real combat training." Shen Zheng said thoughtfully.
"It's half an hour before your group starts duty, so tonight's training is over." Lei Che said. "Be careful."
"Why did you put Lafite and I in the same group?" Shen Zheng asked.
"You will definitely become a high-ranking military official in the future." Lei Che said, "So it's best to have good relationships with some of the more respected people in the military. Although Lafei is a bit annoying, his father is a great man. I want to ease your relationship. Although it is said that you don't have to worry about anything when you reach the peak of power, it is easier said than done, so the necessary interpersonal relationships are still necessary."
"You just said that there are only two insect controllers in our country of Longxing?" Shen Zheng remembered what Lei Che said just now, "Our country has a population of more than 200 million, but only two insect controllers were born?"
"Do you think insect controllers are cabbages?" Lei Che smiled, "If you can become an insect controller, you can immediately become the future successor of the academy or the country. Of course, at that time, both the academy and the country will be friendly to you, and no one will bully you, but will only respectfully ask you."
"It's so difficult..." Shen Zheng let out a long breath and looked at Lei Che with a bit of blame. "You asked me to work towards becoming an insect controller before. I thought it would be easy, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult to become an insect controller."
"It is difficult, but you have such a talent. It would be a pity if you don't strive for this realm." Lei Che said, "So I want to encourage you to look further. Although it's a bit outrageous to say this, to be honest, I always have a feeling that you may be able to go further and become stronger than an insect controller..."
"I respectfully thank you." Shen Zheng smiled.
"Let's not talk about this. It's getting late. Let's take a rest and go on duty." Lei Che said.
The two left the meeting room. Before the duty time arrived, Shen Zheng came to the meeting place. Lei Che took the students in Shen Zheng's group to a flat map in the academy, pointed out the patrol range for them, and after a simple instruction, took them to the defense zone and left.
Shen Zheng understood that Lei Che, as a mentor of the academy, must have gone to patrol and defend in more important areas.
The trainees didn't know the truth, they just treated it as a task to be completed, no one was worried or uneasy, more than ten people followed the team and walked like this, the honest ones looked left and right as required, the dishonest ones simply treated patrol as marching in a queue, their eyes were blurred and wandering.
This team of people turned around in the area they were responsible for, and the mood of coping with the task gradually grew in their hearts. Almost everyone seemed to be straight and marching in step, but in fact they were very lazy.
After an hour, they had walked three times in the patrol area. At this time, the whole team completely relaxed, and even did not march properly. They all walked casually and talked and laughed with their companions from time to time.
Shen Zheng did not join the ranks of the relaxed ones, not only because he knew in advance that an external enemy was going to sneak in, but also because he suddenly felt uneasy half an hour ago.
Shen Zheng knew how accurate his sixth sense was, because it came from the unique power of the Zerg. In several battles, it was this perception of danger that allowed him to save the lives of his comrades and protect his own safety. [
Teacher Reacher might be wrong. He thought to himself as he carefully observed his surroundings. My sense of uneasiness became stronger, which means that these thieves might come here.
What kind of people would they be? What kind of power do they have?
Thinking of this, he kept looking around, looking for clues and sensing the changes in the atmosphere around him. He didn't hear his companions' laughter, and he concentrated all his strength to sense the direction of the danger.
Shen Zheng walked in front of the team, while Lafei walked at the end of the team. It's not that he was willing to be the tail, but he really didn't want to face Shen Zheng face to face.
Suddenly, Shen Zheng's pace slowed down. He felt that the danger was approaching the patrol team quickly, so he turned his head suddenly.
At that moment, the sense of danger became stronger; at that moment, three black shadows suddenly shot out from the corner where the light could not reach, and rushed straight towards the patrol team.
Lafite, who was at the end of the team, was the first to be hit. Shen Zheng clearly saw the three shadows rushing towards Lafite together. The surging insect breath turned into a deadly weapon, and almost simultaneously attacked the student who was still unaware of the danger.
"Be careful!" At this moment, Shen Zheng forgot the previous unpleasantness, and suddenly activated the insect breath of his whole body, leaping up like lightning and passing over the heads of the patrol team. The power in the energy heart merged into the blood, and drilled out along the palm and turned into a blood spirit whip. With three quick wrist shakes, he hit the three uninvited guests who attacked Lafite in sequence.
The blood-colored long whip came from the air, bringing the fear of death. Although the three people could kill Lafite in an instant, they would definitely pay a heavy price for it. In the instant of lightning, they quickly made a judgment and waved their hands to resist the whip of the blood spirit whip.
But this momentary delay also gave Lafite time to dodge to the side in astonishment and see the three people who attacked him.
"There are intruders!" He yelled in shock, his body aura surging.
The students were stunned. They all thought that this kind of patrol was just an ordinary training. No one thought that someone would dare to break into the Longxing Academy to cause trouble. However, they were all elites in each legion. Although they were stunned for a moment, they were ready for battle in a moment. The insect breath on their bodies was surging, ready for battle.
Shen Zheng landed beside Lafite, stared at the three intruders, and whispered: "Lafite, the enemy is strong, and personal grudges are put aside."
"Thank you for saving my life." Lafite's face was a little red. He understood that if Shen Zheng hadn't hit him three times in the air just now, he would have become a corpse at this moment. Although he is domineering, he still has a basic sense of right and wrong. He is not a crazy evil person.
"Be careful!" Shen Zheng suddenly frowned, because he felt another dangerous breath rushing towards the patrol team. He turned his head suddenly, and then saw three more figures approaching the patrol team from another direction. He immediately warned them.
These six intruders were all wearing black tights that were convenient for nighttime movement, but they were very arrogant and did not cover their faces. Their facial features were clearly displayed in front of everyone. It can be seen that they were not afraid of being recognized by anyone.
"Kill!" One of the three who came first waved his hand decisively, and the other two rushed to the patrol team with him, and the other three black-clothed men who rushed quickly also rushed to the patrol team, and in a blink of an eye, they fought with the patrol team.
Two black-clothed men seemed to have seen Shen Zheng's strength, and in order to kill him quickly, they actually attacked Shen Zheng together.
"I'll share the burden for you!" Lafite thought of Shen Zheng's life-saving grace just now, and immediately rushed up to stop a black-clothed man.
Shen Zheng didn't say much, the bloody long whip moved with his wrist, and rolled towards a man in black like a ferocious venomous snake.
The man in black dodged the long whip by leaning forward, and quickly bent forward, flipped his hands, and the insect breath wrapped around his palms, simulating the shape of two sharp blades, and stabbed fiercely towards Shen Zheng's abdomen.
Shen Zheng's body did not move, and with a cold smile, he shook his wrist, and the blood spirit whip that hit the air suddenly paused in the air, and then turned back and stabbed the back of the man in black with the whip head. [
His other hand was gently raised, and an energy prism was instantly generated in the palm of his hand, and it was shot out at the man in black in front.
The man in black was obviously frightened by Shen Zheng's exquisite fighting skills, and rolled to the side in panic in astonishment.
The prism shot out and hit nothing. Just as it was about to fly far away, the blood whip hit it back. At that moment, Shen Zheng's attention suddenly focused on the blood whip, and he controlled the whip tip to hit the prism skillfully.
The insect breath also came from Shen Zheng, so the prism did not explode due to the collision with the blood whip. Instead, it flew in the direction Shen Zheng wanted like a spinning top that was whipped.
It was the direction that the man in black avoided.
