Chapter 254 'The End of the Hungry Ghost' The Secret of the Time Traveler
Schubert subconsciously looked in the direction from which the voice came.
In the process of shifting his gaze, he saw the trembling Hermit or Dr. Kate, and also saw that his cronies and followers had lost their ability to move one after another and were lying around the hospital bed...
Finally, his eyes fell on the face of an old man with curly hair.
That was the only extra person in this sealed ward. It was obviously this person who caused a series of changes!
But the strange thing is that Schubert always felt that this face looked familiar?
"Excuse me, sir..."
He tried to communicate, temporarily as a prisoner.
As the commander-in-chief of the joint defense force, Schubert has quickly found his position in the current situation, accurately judged the pros and cons of the current situation, and made the right decision: surrender.
But then, he realized that he had not fully understood the current situation.
Because he saw the old man with curly hair calmly raised his right hand, clasped it on the left side of his cheek, and peeled off the entire face connected to his neck, including his beard and hair, like a facial mask...
Human skin mask?!
"You..." Schubert was secretly shocked.
Jiang Qian's true appearance appeared at this moment, and the skin, beard and hair that he had removed turned into a poker with a mask on his fingertips, and then shattered into crumbs.
"Don't be surprised, I will explain later."
Jiang Qian looked at Schubert, who had a tense face, and then glanced at the old man who was sitting up straight, tremblingly, and said in a calm tone:
"Actually, his explanation is not absurd. The absurdity is just your illusion. It is probably because you have preconceivedly regarded him as a madman, so his words failed to trigger your logical thinking, which led you to ask a question that he could not answer.
"
Schubert frowned, as if he was trying to make a correct response and judgment to the intruder's words: "...How do you say this?"
"This Dr. Hermet, no, it should be said to be Dr. Hermet played carefully by Dr. Kate. His experience may be bizarre, but it is not absurd."
"The reason is very simple. First of all, from the information I have learned, there is indeed a mysterious tool that allows people to travel through time and space in the mysterious place in the North Sea."
"We assume that the Dr. Kate in front of us has indeed traveled back to a certain time many years ago through this tool and existed at the same time as the 'Dr. Kate' at that time. Then in fact, the Dr. Kate who has traveled through time can be regarded as someone who does not belong to
The travel traces of an 'outsider' in this world, an alien time traveler, do not necessarily need to be logically self-consistent within the established time."
Jiang Qian tried to explain the mystery in a language that was easy for the other party to understand.
But Schubert still frowned when he heard it, and he didn't know if he had followed the train of thought.
"He is an outsider, and he does not necessarily need to be logically consistent in the time that has happened now..."
Schubert repeated this sentence slowly.
"good."
Jiang Qian further explained:
"That is to say, he may complete the link of this trip at some point in the future of this world. This is the reason why I remind you to consider his suggestion carefully."
"Because the scenes he just mentioned that he had 'seen' are probably not memories that happened at a certain time in the past, but..."
"What will happen in the future!" Schubert finally woke up, his blue eyes bursting with surprise!
Since what Kate said is doomed in the future, wouldn't the act of imprisoning and restraining her actions be an act that violates cause and effect?
So isn't the decision I just made equivalent to going against an unshakable law...
No need to think too deeply, Schubert was already sweating behind his back!
He retracted his thoughts anxiously, and his eyes were fixed on Jiang Qian's face for a long time, with a complicated expression.
From Schubert's perspective, this young stranger who always told the shocking truth in a calm and gentle tone even made him want to recruit him as his subordinate!
But the commander's rationality drove him to find the source:
"Who are you exactly?"
"I……"
However, at this moment, the adjutant who was lying on the ground suddenly woke up from his coma!
The lesson of being controlled by others in the dark made him dare not be rude. The moment he woke up, he took out the controller of the indoor mechanical combat soldier from his chest and pressed the autonomous recognition attack switch without hesitation! So much so that his command
By the time the officials spoke to stop him, it was too late.
"etc!"
The mechanical combat soldier standing in the corner of the ward like a vertical air conditioner moved silently.
At that moment, Jiang Qian jumped up, and the place where he was standing had already been hit with an obvious dent by the mechanical combatants rushing from behind.
Jiang Qian landed on the table as lightly as a swallow. At the same time, the pen came out of his hand, and he started a heated debate with the mechanical combatants in the automatic enemy mode!
Another mechanical combat soldier disguised as a chandelier and equipped with flying functions suddenly lost its target after a gorgeous dive.
Jiang Qian disappeared.
Then, the mechanical combat soldier hovering in the air sank suddenly, and came into close contact with the air-conditioned mechanical combat soldier that happened to bump into it. A cluster of dazzling sparks shot out from each other!
As a result, the flying mechanical combat soldier fell and broke his wings, while the air-conditioned mechanical combat soldier was still tightened and beaten on the ground by an artificial pen, rubbing...
In just ten seconds of hand-to-hand combat, Schubert, the adjutant, and even Dr. Kate were all stunned and dumbfounded.
The oolong ended with Jiang Qian forcibly taking back the pen.
At this point, the two mechanical combat soldiers finally expired and were gloriously scrapped.
"He is your confidant?"
Jiang Qian took back his pen and turned to look at the adjutant who was already protecting Schubert.
Schubert was shocked and immediately begged: "This is his mistake! I will punish him. Please calm down!"
"Okay, then for your sake, I won't vent my anger by killing him." Jiang Qian said with a smile.
These words made Schubert and others secretly frightened, and thin cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Jiang Qian easily pulled up a chair and sat down, saying in a calm tone:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The chat time is over. Next, I want to explain the purpose of coming here."
"Let me introduce myself. I am the representative of the defenders, Jiang. I am of the same type as the guys who are attacking the military fortress, but they are opposed to each other. The purpose of my team and I is to protect the human military fortress and stop it in the mysterious place in the North Sea.
Invasion."
"To simply understand, you and I are on the same side. I have a large army and am preparing to cooperate with humans to launch a general attack on the new mutant tribe that is causing trouble."
Jiang Qian's voice is slow but clear and calm, and every word he speaks conveys convincing power:
"Lord Commander-in-Chief, if it's convenient, let's talk about the imminent military fortress defense plan first."
…
In the armored garage room.
Thalia is re-searching the armored carriage that she drove back personally!
She had reported Victor's disappearance to her superiors, but her superiors did not pay attention to it... to be precise, they had no time to take it into consideration.
Today's military fortresses have been torn apart by the two major projects of "defense" and "evacuation" and are at a loss for business.
Fortunately, Thalia's trip was not empty. Her keen eyes were attracted by an object in the corner of the carriage.
That thing was dark, like a scattered chess piece...
She hesitated for a moment, reached out and picked it up, feeling the smooth and heavy texture, waiting to remember it.
A colleague’s call came from the intercom:
"Thalia, Victor is back!"
…
At this time, on the long northern coastline, dots of firelight dotted the long dark night.
This was originally a garrison defense area.
However, human military fortresses are currently facing an unprecedented crisis, so a large number of troops stationed near the coastline are rushing back to provide support.
The remaining troops cannot strictly defend all areas.
The group of people hurried along the beach and rushed towards the ship parked near the coast. They looked agile, brave and well-trained.
Among this group of people, the man leading the group had a cold and pale face, black eyes, and no grass on his head.
Next to him was a black brother, who was tall and strong and looked very brave.
Dan and Michael.
Compared with the abandoned prison in Lianhua City, the number of their team has been reduced astonishingly. The survivors only account for one-third of the previous number, and all of them have endured hardships and endured hardships.
But now their faces are obviously filled with excitement!
"Almost there, finally almost there!"
Dan's voice came from the front of the team and said to everyone:
"Get on that ship, leave the shore, and we will win!"
The group of people then looked happy and walked faster.
"Brother Michael, is there really a utopia on the island?"
When everyone was ecstatic and running towards the place they dreamed of, a buddy who joined later asked Michael.
Michael was obviously stunned for a moment, he had not thought about this problem!
He was so innocent that he never doubted Dan's promise. He just followed the steps of the people he trusted and fought all the way to get here.
"Is there really a treasure there? I'm sorry, I'm not doubting Brother Dan, but... I just can't believe it."
The guy lowered his voice and stayed close to Michael, for fear of being regarded as a reactionary and thrown into the ocean!
Michael thought for a while and was about to answer the question carefully, but was interrupted by a burst of cheers.
Unknowingly, they had fallen behind.
At present, the team is approaching the ship one after another.
Dan had already led the people in front of him to climb up the ladder of one of the ships, and was greeting everyone, checking the fuel tanks and equipment in good condition, and preparing to choose the most suitable ship for the journey...
Of course, only one of the several ships had full fuel tanks and intact equipment.
"Michael, untie the cable!"
Dan's voice came from the deck.
Michael ran to the spot pointed by Dan and began to work hard to remove the cable. The boy who asked the question also worked hard with Michael... But the cable was tied very strangely, and they were at a loss for a while.
】
"Michael, what are you doing? Come on!"
"I'm thinking of a way!" Michael shouted over his shoulder.
"Pighead! Are you making such a loud noise to attract the patrol? Hurry!
"
Dan's voice kept urging.
Michael was sweating profusely. He had already heard the sound of the ship starting, so he had to take out the props he carried and slashed the cable!
Under the combined action of the tension of the hull and the blade, the cable snapped with a "bang".
Michael and his little brother on the shore watched the big ship go away, with Dan's scolding echoing in their ears: "Come on up! You bastards!"
He said this without leaving any chance for them to board the ship.
Looking at the shadow of the ship in the distance, Michael cried out in anger, anxiety, and disappointment. His little brother timidly tugged on his clothes:
"Brother Michael, did you see it? Just now, it seemed like someone jumped off the ship..."
"Jump ship?"
Michael frowned, then looked at the moonlight carefully, and was suddenly shocked.
It wasn't that someone was jumping off the ship, but the violent vibrations of the ship's hull were throwing the "passengers" off the ship one after another!
…
Near the military fortress at this time.
A large number of hunter-killer groups have become a "gathering of all beasts"!
Some of their groups have also reached an agreement to form a strategic alliance like Jiang Qian, Monat, Canyon Laoliu and Nordic Brother.
As a result, the attacks on human military fortresses have gradually escalated...
Even further away, the guards were also gathering one after another.
They were guided by a messenger with the ID name "Qianlong Wuyong", gathered into an army, and quickly found their place in the offensive strategy provided by Qianlong Wuyong.
Attack the enemy from behind and take advantage of the victory to pursue.
Under this trend of extremely high victory rates, the risk of the Guardians winning the league is very low.
Due to the predictable conditions of victory and the reward sharing mechanism after victory, the desire to fight among all the defenders present has become unprecedentedly high!
All the cutting-edge combat forces quickly converged on the military fortress in a very short period of time.
Inside the military fortress at this time.
In the special ward of the Medical Support Department, Jiang Qian had revealed almost the entire deployment of the defenders to Commander-in-Chief Schubert.
And put forward his own combat suggestions:
"Now, stop evacuation and avoid any gaps in the defense interface."
"Concentrate all forces to guard the military fortress, and use all available long-range equipment, guns and weapons in the ensuing gradually escalating offensive and defensive battles until the defenders enter the battle circle."
"At that time, withdraw weapons of mass destruction and use close-combat equipment such as mechanical combatants and unmanned armed combat vehicles. Just hold on to the military fortress and don't try to participate too much in the battle of super-species players.
Then the military fortress can probably be saved."
After speaking, Jiang Qian fell silent and gave the other commander-in-chief time to think and judge.
In the negotiation just now, he had briefly informed Schubert of the existence of the players and the logic of the two camps.
It's an incredible story though.
But at least it is logically self-consistent and is the theory that can best rationally explain all current patterns.
Even the quotes and analysis of the wartime situation are basically consistent with Schubert's current intelligence understanding, so he cannot help but not believe it.
At the critical moment, Schubert showed the true courage of an outstanding commander:
"I agree with this plan."
He looked at Jiang Qian solemnly, and after confirming his eyes, he looked at Dr. Kate aside with a complicated expression:
"Please, Dr. Kate."
"Okay," Jiang Qian looked at the watch on his wrist, "The helicopter should arrive soon. Please ensure their landing environment. We will fly directly to the mysterious place in the North Sea."
Then, he seemed to casually look at the perfectly meshed alloy gate, and said to the two elders as if as a kind reminder:
"Someone is coming to rescue you outside. There will be an explosion. Be careful about the noise."
Not long after Jiang Qian finished speaking, explosions rang out from the alloy gate, and armed elite soldiers forced their way in! Among them was the heavily armed Thalia.
"Hands up, don't move!
"
"Rescue the Commander-in-Chief!"
…
This elite armed force came to rescue the commander-in-chief almost as a death squad.
The first time they broke into the room, they saw the situation inside clearly: Commander-in-Chief Schubert was sitting at the table safely and soundly. To his right was the "Mad Doctor" in a white hospital gown, and opposite him was a temperamental doctor.
Calm and handsome young man.
"It's really you...!
"
Thalia's eyes were locked directly on Jiang Qian, and she was about to launch an attack, but she saw the commander-in-chief Schubert suddenly stood up and blocked Jiang Qian!
He waved his hand very sternly at the elite soldiers who invaded the ward:
"Everyone stop it! There is no crisis here, the friendly negotiations have ended."
After Schubert said these words calmly, he turned to Jiang Qian and said solemnly:
"I need to deploy the plan we discussed, so I'll excuse you for a while."
Then, he raised his hand to the adjutant, took an intercom device and handed it to Jiang Qian:
"While waiting for the plane to arrive, if you need anything, you can talk to me directly."
Jiang Qian smiled happily and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Commander."
After quickly explaining this, Schubert quickly left the special ward with his trusted lieutenant.
During the whole process, all the armed personnel, including Thalia, were stunned by the way the commander-in-chief communicated with Jiang Qian!
…

Typos and flaws will be corrected first and then corrected.
This chapter is quite long, so I think it will work as two chapters.
