...
Countdown 02:00:00.
Qingchen woke up from his dream and stared blankly at the dome of the war fortress.
"I slept for so long, more than thirty hours straight," he sighed.
Normally, it's impossible for a person to sleep for that long unless the brain has reached a point where it must shut down to repair the overexertion.
Right now.
Inside the war fortress, baskets of chicken blood sprouts and longevity fruits were piled up like mountains.
Xiao San and the others all sat cross-legged in meditation, while Xiao Qi and the others kept giving them empowerment.
Luo Wanya was in the field, busy leading the students of the Agricultural College to harvest the last batch of Eternal Heaven before crossing over.
Xiao San is in City 10, and Xiao Qi is in City 22. According to the operating principle of the Zhunti Method, when Xiao Qi gives Xiao San the empowerment, it will cause the Zhunti True Qi in his body to become empty, and he will be unable to continue to impact the Qi channels in his body.
Xiaotongyun and Xiaozhenji also came.
Maki Jinguji carefully cut her own finger with a knife and then smeared the blood on her master's wrist.
The little crybaby who loves to shed tears didn't cry this time.
"Thank you," Qing Chen smiled and patted Maki's head, then stood up. "Let's go, get ready for battle!"
As he spoke, he turned and walked out of the war fortress, followed closely by Xiao San and the others carrying baskets of fruit.
On the way, Luo Wanya reported on the recent situation: "Boss, Si Nianhua and Ji Guanya have both landed on the island and are waiting for you in the square; the time travelers in City 10 have all recovered their health by applying chicken blood sprouts, but unfortunately they can't be taken to the Inner World; there are enough Eternal Heaven Fruits for each person to eat two, and there are 432 left over. This time I suggest giving them to those cliff challengers."
"Why?"
"On the one hand, it is definitely in our interest and your interest for the challengers to eat. On the other hand, the children are protected in the lower three districts and do not need to go to the battlefield, so there is no need for them to eat more."
“Okay, I’ll do as you say,” Qingchen nodded.
As the group walked along the road, a moment suddenly passed and Xingzhe greeted Qingchen: "Hello, young dean."
"Hello, Dean."
"Thank you, Dean."
Qing Chen was stunned for a moment. He looked at the Time Travelers who were looking at him with genuine respect and didn't react for a while.
Actually, when the Time Travelers first learned that Qing Chen was the dean of the Agricultural Academy, they felt a little awkward.
Everyone acknowledges Qing Chen's strength, but Qing Chen is too young, so they always feel a little strange when facing him.
However, with this return, the time travelers of City 10 recount how Qing Chen brought them back to the Lower Three Districts time and time again, and how he repeatedly helped them fend off hordes of rats along the way.
The time travelers told the students: The young dean only slept for two hours each time, or sometimes not at all. In the entire seven days, he probably slept for less than 10 hours, all because he had to go save people...
When these things were posted on the academy forum, all the Timewalkers who saw them fell silent.
Now, those Time Travelers respectfully address Qing Chen without feeling awkward, because this respect is earned by Qing Chen through his strength and actions.
Just as Qing Chen was feeling sentimental, Chen Sui from the Matrix organization suddenly approached: "I'm sorry, the Matrix was wrong before. I hope Bai Zhou can forgive what I did before, and I also hope that the Matrix can help more Time Walkers in the future, just like you. I know that the Matrix and Bai Zhou are still far behind, but from today onwards, we will strive to be your role models. The Matrix was too selfish in the past, but it won't be like that anymore. Please forgive me sincerely."
Qing Chen remained silent for a while, then smiled and said, "It's alright, it's all in the past."
He never expected that the rift between the Matrix and Daylight would end with Chen Sui apologizing.
At this moment, Chen Sui suddenly asked, "Chen Nian is you too, right? The gold medalist from city number 22..."
Qing Chen said expressionlessly, "Old Luo, take him away first, we have important business to attend to."
Upon arriving at the square, Xiaoqi smiled and said to her classmates, "Come on, same old routine, everyone scan the code and fill out the installment application. Remember to fill out two applications each!"
Lu Yuan, watching this scene from the side, was both amused and exasperated: "What kind of time is this, and the Agricultural College is still thinking about installment loans?"
Zheng Yuandong laughed and said, "This is the real Qingchen. It shows that he has come out of his grief and irrationality and is ready for battle. Let's distribute the supplies we prepared."
At this moment, Xiao Ying and his men appeared carrying dozens of boxes of weapons.
The Kunlun members opened the box, revealing a series of miniature liquid grenades, each only half the size of a palm.
Zheng Yuandong said to Qing Chen, "This is liquid bomb technology from the Otherworld. It's the perfect size to fit inside a Time Traveler's mouth."
"Was it made by Kunlun?" Qing Chen asked curiously.
“No,” Zheng Yuandong shook his head, “These were manufactured by Kyushu overseas, working overtime, and specially designed for time travelers to travel between the two worlds. They are being given away for free. Although the workmanship is still a bit rough, they should be of some help to you.”
Qingchen nodded: "Please thank Boss He for me."
This time, Mr. He did not mention the transaction again.
In the square, Si Nianhua and Ji Guanya approached Qing Chen: "Boss, someone from the Qing family asked me to ask you if you've found a solution?"
Qing Chen nodded: "Found it, I'll deal with the rat swarm. But Ji Guanya, I'll give you coordinates. After you cross over, you must make sure the Li family launches a missile and blows that place up."
Si Nianhua and Ji Guanya exchanged a glance, both showing surprise. Solve the rat swarm? The conglomerates didn't know how to deal with it and could only resort to dropping missiles to destroy the city.
However, Qingchen said that he had already found a solution?
The countdown is approaching.
Qing Chen looked at the mistress again: "Can you handle it?"
This was the third time he had asked.
The mistress shouted, "We can handle it!"
"Hold on to the death."
Qing Chen turned to look at the Time Travelers in the square, waiting for them to consume the Eternal Heaven Fruit.
I'm back, for those who can't come back.
Time resets to zero.
Time travel!
Chapter 692, It Must Be a Celestial Being's Drunken Ecstasy
The world is bright again.
Countdown 168:00:00.
"Hold on to the death..."
The mistress spat out the miniature grenade from her mouth and muttered to herself.
There's no time to ease everyone's sense of alienation from the world they just experienced.
The swarm of rats before their eyes brought everyone back to reality in just one second!
In front of the defense line of the lower three districts, the rat swarm continued to increase, mixed with a large number of newly arrived black-skinned rats, whose speed and strength were more troublesome than the previous rats.
At this moment, Xiao San suddenly realized that the rat swarm had entered its complete form, and this was their final attack!
Just get through it.
They won't make it through and will die!
Qing Chen had specifically instructed Xiao San: the million-level rats that had besieged Iodine and others would immediately move towards the Lower Three Districts defense line after this transmigration, and that would be the most difficult time.
Thinking of this, Xiao San immediately looked at the Timewalkers and shouted, "Quickly gather the grenades to the front line, hurry, hurry, hurry!"
To the bewilderment of the refugees, the Timewalkers spat out grenades from their mouths one by one, with even the children under 12 years old helping to carry them.
They gathered the grenades together and carried them to the front lines.
The mistress yelled, "Get out of here after you've delivered the grenade!"
As he spoke, he pulled the pin on a grenade and threw it forcefully into the center of the rat swarm.
With a deafening roar, the grenade, which incorporated liquid gunpowder technology from another world, suddenly exploded amidst the swarm of rats.
But then the fireball exploded and burned, and hundreds of rats that were nearby were instantly blown to pieces, while those that were far away were covered in flames that could not be extinguished!
This liquid grenade, like white phosphorus bombs, is a prohibited item that violates the Convention on Human Warfare.
The reason why Kyushu created it is that they don't need to care about any human conventions when dealing with rats; all they need to do is kill these rats!
The Convention on Human Rights applies to humans, but killing rats is naturally unrestricted!
It's a fight to the death!
One grenade after another was thrown out, which for a time made it difficult for the rat swarm to continue, giving the defense line of the lower three districts a chance to breathe.
The refugees stared blankly at everything, feeling as if these young people were performing magic.
One second these people were barely clinging to life, shouting "I can't go on," and the next second they were completely healed and full of energy.
One second it was being beaten back, the next second it opened its mouth and spat out a grenade, which actually made the rat swarm unable to withstand the attack for a while.
Wait, are these people time travelers?!
This is amazing!
However, this was not the time to be happy. Xiao San shouted loudly, "Quickly, quickly reinforce the defense line! The rat swarm is coming again!"
"Reinforce the defenses!"
"Push it back!"
"Continue the fight!"
In this dark city, cries echoed into the distance, resounding through the night!
The rat swarm was relentless, and Xiao San knew very well that the grenades Kyushu had prepared could only relieve their pressure for a short time.
More than four thousand miniature grenades are nothing to a swarm of millions of rats.
The black swarm of rats surged in again, catching many people off guard, and several sections of their defenses were breached in an instant.
Without communication or electricity, some defensive lines collapsed without timely notification to support troops.
Standing on the high-rise building, Zhang Mengqian shouted and banged on the bottom of the pot as if her life depended on it, trying to warn others.
But as they kept tapping, the bottom of the pot actually cracked!
He looked down and saw that there was a crack in the web between his thumb and forefinger.
