The Ninth Year the Great Demon King Waited for a Guide

Xie Yuzhou had already made preparations to reminisce about the past, but after walking in, he realized that the other party didn't know who he was at all, and his preparations seemed to have been in vain.

And Jin Yuan also had a slight change in his expression. His expression seemed to be a little more relaxed, revealing a bit of disdain, as if he felt that Tan Ye, whom Xie Yuzhou didn't recognize, was not worthy at all. be his opponent.

Tan Ye watched the sudden change of expression between the two of them, and slowly fell silent.

He looked at Xie Yuzhou, then at Jin Yuan, and took a moment to confirm whether he had missed something, but he really couldn't figure it out.

Finally, he simply asked directly: "Did I say something wrong?"

Jin Yuan shook his head lightly, and without waiting for Tan Ye to say anything, he took the initiative to pull Xie Yuzhou to sit down on the chair opposite Tan Ye.

It looked as if he was the owner here, and Tan Ye was just an insignificant outsider.

Xie Yuzhou also thought Jin Yuan's appearance was a bit funny, as if he was deliberately trying to show his power to Tan Ye in front of him, but Tan Ye didn't even know what happened.

And this kind of scene seems to be the way they often get along with each other in the past.

At that time, Jin Yuan was still a little bit childish. Xie Yuzhou had a good relationship with Tan Ye, and they would often chat and eat together. Wild tit for tat.As Tan Ye was the chief sentinel at the time, it was naturally impossible to toss with a little guy who hadn't graduated yet, but probably because Jin Yuan's appearance was too funny, Tan Ye always pretended to be close to Xie Yuzhou every time, teasing him It made Jin Yuan afraid to leave Xie Yuzhou's side like a beast protecting food.

When the long-lost memory came back, Xie Yuzhou felt nostalgic, but more of it was a headache.

By this time, even Tan Ye noticed something was wrong.

He was a little dazed at first, and then couldn't help but opened his mouth slightly. He pointed at Jin Yuan first, and then immediately turned his head towards Xie Yuzhou. It was obvious that the name was on his lips, but he never said it.

Seeing this, Xie Yuzhou knew that he should have already guessed it.

In fact, during this period of time, it has become a habit for him to reveal his identity. He has been known by countless people, and now he almost feels that he has no identity disguise at all.

If it weren't for Tan Ye's question just now, he would have regarded it as an established fact that everyone knew his identity.

He smiled and nodded to Tan Ye: "If you didn't guess randomly, then you guessed right."

Tan Ye was startled, then quickly walked over, and was about to grab Xie Yuzhou to confirm.

However, before Tan Ye got close to Xie Yuzhou, Jin Yuan had already stood between the two of them, apparently unwilling to let them have any more intimate actions.

With Jin Yuan's action of protecting food, Tan Ye almost didn't need to confirm it anymore. Except for Xie Yuzhou, probably no one could make Jin Yuan so nervous.

The expression on Tan Ye's face changed several times. At first, it was because of joy, but later, he thought of something that happened before, and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed and having a strange expression.

Xie Yuzhou also found it funny, and said, "What are you thinking?"

Tan Ye didn't have to challenge Jin Yuan's ability to bear it. He ran over to give Xie Yuzhou a hug that he hadn't seen for a long time. There was no need for that, and Xie Yuzhou might not eat this. He just smiled and sat back, thinking Want to say: "So from the very beginning, you were communicating with me as Xie Tong, you should have recognized me long ago, but I was still playing tricks..."

Xie Yuzhou's expression was also indescribable.

He shook his head and said, "You may not believe it, but I only found out about your identity not long ago when you contacted us and said you wanted to see us."

Tan Ye: "..."

Xie Yuzhou: "..."

The two of them looked at each other, and after thinking about it, they felt that it was both ingenious and helpless. The two of them were like this, and they had met so many times, but they hadn't thought that they knew each other.

Jin Yuan watched the eye contact between the two of them, and took the initiative to remind him: "You should get down to business."

It's true, they don't have much time to do things like reminiscing about the old days.

Xie Yuzhou said, "Yes, why did you ask us to come this time?"

This is what Jin Yuan wants to know.

The scene became a little quiet, Xie Yuzhou and Jin Yuan looked at Tan Ye at the same time, and Tan Ye was startled, as if he had just recovered from the rhythm of the conversation just now, remembering his purpose for coming to them before.

After all, they still have important things to do, so after expressing their emotions briefly, they still need to calm down a little.

Tan Ye said: "Are you proposing to cooperate with me in order to find talents?"

When he said this, he looked at Xie Yuzhou, and it seemed that he really wanted to figure out how Xie Yuzhou came back to life, how he became what he is now, and has this identity.

Xie Yuzhou explained it to him in a few simple words, and only then did Tan Ye think thoughtfully: "So what you are looking for is actually your body..."

When he said this, he always felt that it was strange to describe it.

But Xie Yuzhou didn't shy away, nodded and said: "Although that body should be useless to me now, there is still a lot of spiritual power absorbed from the Zerg experimental base in the body. The amount of mental power is very large, if it is brought back by the Zerg, it is difficult for us to think what they will do with that body."

Tan Ye continued: "The person you are looking for is..."

"Tingxi."

Tan Ye was about to ask who Ting Xi was, but Jin Yuan frowned impatiently and said, "You don't even know who this person is, so you still say you can help us?"

Xie Yuzhou: "..."

Tan Ye was also a little taken aback.

What they said seemed to be different from beginning to end.

Xie Yuzhou asked: "Don't you want to tell us where Tingxi took my body?"

Tan Ye also said: "Didn't you want to ask me about the Zerg's plans for the past few years?"

Xie Yuzhou fell silent, and so did Tan Ye.

Then the two asked again almost at the same time.

"Who is Tingxi?"

"What's the Zerg's plan?"

The two parties stopped their tone of voice almost at the same time, and Jin Yuan came out after a while, as if he couldn't stand the weird tacit understanding between the two, and said to Tan Ye: "You talk first."

Tan Ye nodded, and then began to say: "You should all know that I left the Federation. I was attacked not long after your accident." He said this to Xie Yuzhou, and Xie Yuzhou Yu Zhou also expressed his doubts and asked, "Yes, I wanted to ask you before, why did you leave the Federation? What happened when you were attacked?"

Tan Ye said: "That incident was actually to investigate about you..."

Xie Yuzhou was startled, and suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Did you go to the Dusk Star Battlefield?"

Tan Ye nodded again: "That's right."

Xie Yuzhou didn't expect it to be like this, if it really happened

In this way, Tan Ye's injuries were calculated because of him. I heard that Tan Ye was seriously injured in that attack, almost killing his life.

Seeing Xie Yuzhou's expression, Tan Ye guessed what he was thinking almost immediately, so Tan Ye couldn't help laughing and said: "You don't have to make such an expression of sorry for me, although I am indeed doing it for you. I was hurt by this incident, but in fact my motivation was just to answer my own doubts."

He went on to say: "Of course, I also want to avenge you."

Glancing at Jin Yuan beside Xie Yuzhou, Tan Ye said, "Since he has found out the enemies within the Federation for you, I can only look for the Zerg side."

Tan Ye was indeed right. If there was anything Xie Yuzhou didn't think about before he was "dying", it should be the battle on Dusk Star.

If it is said that someone from the Federation colluded with the Zerg, that's why he didn't bring enough troops to solve the battle, and eventually exhausted his mental strength and died.So why did the Zerg have such ability to set up that kind of situation in the first place? How did they manage to influence so many sentries and make them lose control?

Xie Yuzhou really wanted to know about this matter. Since the Xie family became the experimental subjects of the Zerg many years ago, he has not fully understood it until now.

Tan Ye said: "I have been investigating this matter for the past nine years. Although I haven't fully figured it out yet, at least I have some clues. Of course, the biggest thing I have done in these years is probably..."

Xie Yuzhou said with a smile: "It should be to make your illusion society bigger and bigger."

Jin Yuan added blankly: "By the way, star E36 was also liberated, right?"

Tan Ye shrugged: "This is a windfall, although it's a bit more accidental."

Before knowing that the leader of the Huanshe was Tan Ye, in Xie Yuzhou's impression, the leader of the Huanshe was a weird guy wearing a mask, but now it is different. After knowing the true identity of this guy, Xie Yuzhou always felt This guy seems to have a strange sense of humor no matter what he says.

I don't know how Zong Yu and the others would feel if they knew that their leader actually looked like this.

But Tan Ye didn't say any more nonsense, he continued: "I actually found this place by accident, I was chasing..."

Jin Yuan continued to complete the words for him with a blank face: "You came after that old man, didn't you?"

Tan Ye nodded: "That's right."

Xie Yuzhou thought of this and asked, "So you already know the relationship between Mr. Tan Shao and Jin Yuan?"

Tan Ye: "You can say that."

Jin Yuan continued to urge: "When are you going to get to the point?"

Tan Ye: "..."

He turned around and asked Xie Yuzhou next to him: "Has this guy been so eccentric lately?"

Xie Yuzhou blinked innocently: "Not really."

It's just being so weird to him.

Xie Yuzhou really couldn't say this out, so he could only give a vague answer. Fortunately, Tan Ye didn't continue to talk about these messy things. After saying these briefly, he quickly got to the point : "It's like this. My previous investigation of the Zerg was actually related to that old man in my family. You should also know that before everyone thought that my father had joined the Zerg and brought federal secrets to the Zerg."

Indeed, as Tan Ye said, many people convicted Tan Shao in this way at the beginning, but no one can really figure out what the truth is until now.

Of course, Xie Yuzhou does not believe this so-called truth, because Tan Shao has no motive for doing so, and also because he has gone there to find out that there are indeed many doubts in this matter, and it is easy to solve it with a little deliberation. Find out what the problem is, it's just that someone in the Federation deliberately promoted this matter at that time, trying to frame Tan Shao.

Tan Ye continued: "I found out that my father might be here, but after I came here, I didn't know that he had..."

Jin Yuan said: "Can these things be skipped?"

Tan Ye smiled, and continued: "Anyway, that's the way it is. Although the old man is gone, I still found a lot of things along his trail, and I also know that this place is actually the original experimental base of the Zerg. construction site."

He went on to explain the whole thing in simple words.

Calculated according to the timeline, the Zerg first built their first experimental base here, and their experimental subjects were still the federal people who were originally prisoners of war here.They gathered many sentinels and guides on this planet and brought them into the experimental base. The result of this experiment was obviously a failure, because just a few years later, when they were chasing Jin Yuan, the experimental base It was destroyed by Tan Shao, and they began to prepare a new experimental base because of this.

It can be said that the original Jin Yuan should also be a very important test object in their experiments.

But it is a pity that Jin Yuan escaped by himself.

After that, they gave up Jin Yuan's line after countless failed searches, and started looking for other ways.

Yue Zhouxing's experimental base was their second attempt and the second method they thought of.

Of course, everyone knows the results of the base very well, and what follows is their experimental base on M87, and the scene where Xie Yuzhou almost died from absorbing too much mental power.

In fact, the Zerg experiment was considered a success.

However, Tan Ye didn't know about this matter. He only understood what Xie Yuzhou said after he told the story now.

And his face gradually became serious, and he finally understood the purpose of Xie Yuzhou and the others: "You said that you are looking for that person named Tingxi, so that you can get back that body? To prevent the final success of the Zerg plan?"

Xie Yuzhou nodded.

Tan Yeruo looked thoughtful, Xie Yuzhou continued to ask: "Apart from this, what else did you find?"

It was obvious that Tan Ye would be here, and certainly not just to tell them about the history of the Zerg laboratory. Besides, he must have made more special discoveries.

And Xie Yuzhou's guess was indeed correct, Tan Ye's face gradually became serious, and the next thing he said made Xie Yuzhou and even Jin Yuan feel something unexpected.

Tan Yedao: "According to my investigation here, in addition to the Zerg laboratory I found here, I also found a very strange cave in the ancient woodland of this planet, and that cave looks like It is a place like a laboratory, of course that laboratory is different from what we see now, judging from the furnishings inside and some things that survived, the laboratory should be something more than 3000 years old in the star calendar.

Xie Yuzhou murmured, "The star calendar is more than 3000 years?"

It has been more than 4000 years since now...

Of course, this is not what Xie Yuzhou cares about the most. What makes him most sensitive is that this year actually happens to be the time when the first war between the Zerg and the Federation took place.

What the hell is going on in that lab?

If it is not related to what they care about now, Tan Ye will definitely not say this at this time, but what happened more than 4000 years ago has anything to do with the present?

Tan Ye's next words answered Xie Yuzhou's mind.

Tan Ye said: "Actually, I didn't pay attention to this base at the beginning. For us, we just discovered a historic site by accident. But then I discovered a problem by accident, and I didn't know that the Zerg race in that historic site Although the equipment and functions of the base are far from the Zerg's current base, there are many similarities."

This discovery made Xie Yuzhou and Jin Yuan look at each other, their expressions were a little strange.

There is really no way not to feel weird. Why did the laboratory thousands of years ago have such a thing?Could it be that the Zerg have been thinking about using spiritual power for so many years.

A 4000-year study?

Tan Ye continued: "There may be two explanations for this matter, one is that their research has lasted for a full 4000 years, and the other is that they have made research results, but now their research results have lost their effect Or it is about to lose its effect, so they are eager to research new alternatives."

Tan Ye continued to explain: "Of course, I think the latter should be the truth. You have been in the Federation all year round, and it is difficult to get in touch with the Zerg, so it may not be clear, but the power of the phantom club exists in both the Zerg and the Federation. I was able to find out the internal affairs of the Zerg through some contacts. After my investigations over the years, I was able to find out that many planets inside the Zerg actually have the same laboratory relics."

Xie Yuzhou frowned and said, "A substitute?"

He was still thinking about Tan Ye's above sentence, and in fact he also believed that the real fact was Tan Ye's later guess, but what he cared more about was that the body he was taken away by Ting Xi was No, it's the experimental product that the Zerg wanted.

So that's likely to be the next replacement for the Zerg?What exactly were they trying to replace with that body?

When they said this, they had almost said what they should say, and it was time to talk to each other again.

The atmosphere is slightly eccentric.

After all, Xie Yuzhou was more friendly and polite to Tan Ye, a friend he hadn't seen for a long time, but Jin Yuan didn't have such scruples at all. He directly scolded and said unabashedly: "So you specially asked us to come here and explained to us Through cause and effect."

Tan Ye suddenly lost much confidence at this time: "That's right."

Jin Yuan continued: "We are almost losing our last cards now, what's the use of cause and effect?"

Tan Ye disagreed with his statement: "If you don't know the causal relationship, how can you know what the Zerg's goal is?"

The scene fell silent again.

Tan Ye said helplessly: "Well, you know."

The target of the Zerg is the body that Xie Yuzhou used, there is no doubt about it.

Jin Yuan continued to scold with a blank face: "Shouldn't you just call us here without explaining anything clearly, so it's so difficult to tell your purpose directly?"

Although he said so, Tan Ye said helplessly: "We are an underground organization, have you ever seen any underground organization that speaks directly?"

Xie Yuzhou: "..."

There seems to be nothing wrong with saying that.

No, now is not the time to talk about this at all, but at this moment, before their chat was over, there was suddenly the sound of hasty footsteps outside, followed by the voice of the person who led the way just now: "Boss! Boss There is news outside!"

Xie Yuzhou looked back towards the place where he entered the door: "What's going on?"

Jin Yuan and Tan Ye also reacted differently, and then people outside finally came to them and said hastily: "There seems to be an unknown fleet near our planet. I don't know who it is..."

Xie Yuzhou's expression changed, and he immediately stood up and said, "Wait, what fleet is it?"

Jin Yuan also turned his head back at the same time, with a slightly complicated expression.

Could it really be such a coincidence?

Although Xie Yuzhou didn't quite believe it, but if this was the case, then the matter was really too simple, as if they just happened to find the right place by mistake.

At the scene, Xie Yuzhou and the others fixed their eyes on the person who just came in almost at the same time, and it was probably the first time that person was watched by such a few big men. For a moment, his expression was blank, and then he backed away halfway. Bucai said cautiously, "What, what's wrong? Leader?"

Xie Yuzhou continued the question just now: "What fleet is it? Have you seen their flag clearly?"

The person who led the way looked down at the communicator in his hand and said, "It seems to be, is it called Green Boat or something..."

Xie Yuzhou and Jin Yuan's expressions changed instantly.

It turned out to be them!

Without even waiting for Tan Ye to speak, Xie Yuzhou immediately asked the man, "Where is their goal? Is it near here?"

The person who led the way was extremely surprised, as if he didn't understand Xie Yuzhou's anti-customer attitude.

He looked nervously at Tan Ye next to him, but Tan Ye didn't say much, but waved to him very casually, meaning that his own people said casually.

The man nodded and said, "It's nearby. Judging from their flight route, they should be going to the nearby star E35."

After confirming their flight route, Xie Yuzhou turned back to them and asked, "Do you have any flying tools that are relatively inconspicuous here? The ones that can quietly follow them without being noticed for a while?"

Tan Ye replied: "Of course, I will go with you."
