After Mr. Qin said that, the five directors stood up together and gave Li Yu a thunderous applause.

The warm applause lasted for a full minute before it stopped. In addition to the applause, Li Yu vaguely heard the sound of horses.

At first, Li Yu only thought it was his illusion, but the next moment the huge ash tree in front of him suddenly cracked a gap, and a white horse jumped out of it.

"This is the gift the board has prepared for you," Taylor said. "Its name is Trashil, it is a five-star piece of equipment. If you share your blood with it, it will become your mount, only loyal to you.

"Where you are, just blow your whistle, it will appear before you."

According to Taylor, Li Yu lightly cut his palm with a knife, then dipped it in some blood and applied it to the white horse's forehead.

The latter also stuck out his tongue and licked Li Yu's palm intimately.

At this time, Taylor said again, "You have said you want to know the company's plan for salvation in detail, but I told you that it was not the time yet, but now the time is finally ripe.

“You have proven your loyalty to the board and we can also continue to go deeper into the real core.

"Come on, we'll take you to the company headquarters."

“Company Headquarters?”

“It’s not the one you’ve been to, that’s just an open service point that helps candidates like you, with real headquarters in another place.”

“Where?”

"Buzhou Mountain." Mr. Qin said, "Beyond the Northwest Sea, in the corner of the Great Wilderness, there is a mountain that is not in harmony, and it is called Buzhou."

"Is this the "Shan Hai Jing"?"

Mr. Qin nodded, "We found it based on the records in ancient books. According to legend, it is the intersection between the human world and the heaven. In ancient times, some people once crossed Mount Buzhou to ascend to the immortals."

"So there is really a heaven?"

"It depends on how you define it." Mr. Qin said, "We did not find gods or immortal palaces there, but it is indeed a very suitable place for cross-plane travel.

"Even if you don't use any auxiliary instruments in Buzhou Mountain, you can feel the intersection and rise and fall of planes. Have you heard of the stories of Gonggong and Buzhou Mountain?"

"What are you talking about is the legend that Gonggong broke through Buzhou Mountain?"

"That's right, according to legend, in ancient times, the water god Gonggong and the fire god Zhurong were incompatible. The two fought hard, and finally Gonggong accidentally broke the Buzhou Mountain, causing disaster to come.

"A very interesting coincidence, in that myth, Mount Buzhou was also a pillar of heaven used to support the sky. Mount Buzhou broke, causing the sky to pour out, which led to the incident of Nuwa refining stones and repairing the sky.

"We don't know if it was because the 'Heaven' broke a hole that caused the intersection with other planes there so often now, but this helped us conduct research and carry out later plan of salvation."

Windsor interrupted at this time, "That place is probably the place where other interplanetary visitors come to our universe."

"You have said so much, where is it?" Li Yu asked.

"The Pamir Plateau, if it is more specific, is located in the southeast of Tajikistan, which is surrounded by mysterious barriers and cannot be reached by ordinary means of transportation."

Taylor pointed to the ash behind him, and the cracks in the tree were not closed.

"Fortunately, we have a faster way to access it now."

Taylor finished speaking and walked into the interior of ash first, followed by Windsor and Bernard, followed by Sergey.

Mr. Qin made a gesture of invitation, and Li Yu also stepped into it.

The newly obtained white horse he still stayed in the Red Leaf Villa because he did not receive the order. He was eating a pot of potted plants that looked valuable.

Li Yu walked into the ash and smelled a faint fragrance of grapefruit, and the light in front of him gradually became dim.

The inside of the tree was wider than Li Yu imagined. There was a small path under his feet, extending forward, but Li Yu could no longer see Taylor and others, and Mr. Qin seemed to have not caught up with him.

Li Yu walked along the path and walked for about three or four minutes. During this period, there were always sounds in his ears, as if the giant tree was still growing.

The light around Li Yu was so dark that it was almost impossible to see clearly, but the next moment he suddenly realized his eyes, but he had already arrived in front of another gap.

Li Yu walked out along the gap and immediately felt that the temperature around him was about ten degrees lower than before, and the cold wind blew, making his suit rustle.

His breathing also became rapid, and Taylor and others were standing under the tree waiting for him.

"The altitude here is already over 5,000 meters. Do you want to slow down?"

Li Yu looked at the white building in front of him that looked like a research institute, estimated the distance, and decided to go there and rest, so he shook his head.

"Then keep moving forward."

Mr. Qin's voice sounded behind Li Yu, and he also walked out of the giant tree.

The six people continued to move forward, and were about to approach the white building, a blurred afterimage suddenly passed by Li Yu's eyes. He saw an ice cone shooting towards him and stabbed into his chest.

Li Yu lowered his head and looked at the wound, but there was nothing there.

"Planes meet," Bernard explained, "The space here is not as stable as outside, but it doesn't matter. Those afterimages that are just ectopic planes will not really affect us."

"Do you need oxygen?" asked Taylor, who was walking in the front.

"No, but it would be great if I could have a cup of hot tea."

A familiar voice sounded, "Then I'll pour it for you."

Hephaestus of the Equipment Department is also here, and he is surrounded by an Indian woman and a white old man in his sixties and seventies.

The three of them stood outside the institute's door to welcome the arrival of Taylor and other directors and Li Yu.

The oldest man seems to be the head of the institute.

He opened his arms and hugged the guests this time one by one. When it was Li Yu's turn, he hugged for a very long time, and seemed to be extra forceful, with an excited expression, and was muttering words.

"Only Christ died for us while we were still sinners, and God's love is revealed to us."

"New Testament Romans." Bernard introduced to Li Yu, "Dr. Robin, who has always believed that you are the incarnation of that man and will guide us through the end of the world."

"It's not just me, many people think so." Dr. Robin wiped his glasses, "You are our source of strength.

"It is now the 21st century, and science is unprecedentedly developed. We are used to understanding and analyzing the world with a scientific and rational attitude, so many people feel that faith is no longer important.

"But even if we put aside our research, I still believe that people should have faith, even if it cannot help you overcome diseases or make you rich overnight, when you face difficulties and pain, faith can at least make your spirit less uncomfortable.

"Unfortunately, it's just a subjective experience in many cases. I've come into contact with many powerful practitioners. Although they can't use those powerful secret techniques like you, they exercise their spirits very strongly and can manipulate their perceptions. Even if they are in hell, they can still maintain the peace of their souls."
