Millennium: I Love Demon King

After completely exterminating the frightening mutated bat from their previous world, everyone was puzzled as to where they should go from here. They had thought that they could settle down in Tianjin, yet they were kicked out in such a manner.

"Let's go to Beijing." Gu Cheng lightly said at this moment, as if he had completely forgotten how they had left with hope in their hearts, only to be coldly refused entry by the capital city base.

"To Beijing? But last time, we were not even allowed to enter the gate. " Luo Wei couldn't help but to ask.

"Not this time." Gu Cheng ignored everyone's puzzled gazes and pulled Lin Xin along to the back of the bus. Since the beginning of the apocalypse, this was the first time his body was forced to its limit, so he needed to take a good rest.

Lin Xin, who had been dragged to the back, could only give everyone a comforting look. Since Gu Cheng was so sure that they would no longer be stopped outside the door, he might as well continue heading north.

Everyone looked at each other. There were no other bases that they wanted to go to. Just like Gu Cheng had said, they might as well try going north once more. They all knew that Gu Cheng was very tired. He hadn't called them over for lunch either, having settled the matter separately.

Gu Cheng slept for an entire day. Seeing how deeply he slept, Lin Xin felt sorry for him and did not wake him up. She accompanied him to sleep until the evening before waking up.

He looked at the sky outside and realized that he had actually slept for such a long time. When he woke up, his stomach was already empty, and when he saw Lin Xin, who had accompanied him all day, his eyes flashed with regret. He hurriedly took out some cake and some milk from his spatial space, letting her fill his stomach first while he went out to the kitchen to prepare a table of food. It was Mr. Liu's turn to drive, so he could only look in the rearview mirror.

Steamed Little Yellow Fish, Shrimp Slippery Japanese Tofu, Stir-fried Wheat Straw, Dried Vegetables … The soup, on the other hand, was directly brought out from space. It was a stewed mountain medicine lotus root and stewed pork ribs, the bones already stewed to the point where they melted immediately after entering his mouth.

Fortunately, more than half of the rice they cooked for dinner was left over in the wok.

The Liu family's grandfather looked at the table full of delicious dishes and couldn't help but sigh, "Little Gu really can walk out of the hall and into the kitchen!"

When Lin Xin saw Gu Cheng's expression stiffen and the feeling of being choked, she couldn't help but laugh. These words were used to describe how strange he truly felt, even though he really was rather 'virtuous'.

"And I brought it with me, and I brought it back with me." After eating their fill, everyone started to mock Gu Cheng. Who told them to not be afraid of him now?

"Alright, you guys stop talking about him. What if Little Gu doesn't let you guys sit on the table next time?" Grandma Liu came out to stop the younger and more open topic of conversation, bringing it back to the main topic at hand.

"Little Gu, what are our plans for this trip to Beijing?"

Everyone turned to look at him.

Gu Cheng had finished eating as well. Glancing at Lin Xin who was picking out the green onions, he said, "Last time, I told you all to pay attention to the crystals left behind. Count them and give them to me. There's a great use for you to go to Beijing."

After saying this, he no longer had any intentions of continuing to explain things to the crowd. He helplessly ruffled Lin Xin's hair, took the plate of steamed fish, and picked up the green onions and fish bones one by one for her.

The trenches began to show their love again. Everyone picked up the child and left the kitchen, so as not to be blinded by the light.

Three days later, they arrived at the entrance of the Beijing Capital Base. It was unknown what Gu Cheng had said to the guards as the entrance to the base had actually been opened for them. They had even been allowed to drive their cars in.

The bus was taken up by Gu Cheng before they entered the base. Along the way, they found three other cars. What was interesting was that Luo Wei's convoy, which had seen this scene for the first time, had their jaws drop when they saw Gu Cheng's ultimate technique of keeping the bus empty-handed. However, they did not plan to change cars like Gu Cheng. In their bones, no one believed that they could enter Beijing this time around. Therefore, when they were allowed to enter, the members of Luo Wei's convoy were in disbelief. It was only when they were led into the isolation zone that they realized with pleasant surprise that they had really entered Beijing this time.

This time they were not ordered to stay in the quarantine for another three days for isolation and observation. Instead, they were led by an officer in a black uniform directly into the Beijing capital city.

Everyone on the way was dazzled by the improvement of the base. The capital was indeed. If it weren't for the dirty old clothes worn by the residents, they would have thought they were in Beijing before the apocalypse. It was also because everyone was busy looking at the new base that no one noticed the young military officer leading them, the two stars and a flower of a major general on his epaulette. If they had noticed this, they would probably be unable to restrain themselves from muttering a few words in their hearts. Just what kind of background did this Gu Cheng have? It had actually alarmed the special ability unit's chief general, Mo Jian, to come and settle them down.

Luo Wei and the others were too excited. Lin Xin was blind to military matters, so they didn't notice anything. However, this scene was witnessed by the people who wanted to see it. Gu Cheng and the rest had just settled down in the central villa area of Beijing when news of their new guests had already spread throughout the city.

People living in the central villa complex in Beijing were much more powerful compared to the villa complex they had lived in at Tianjin's first base. Apart from the elders of the political and military worlds, most of the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Fellow Scholars also resided in this area.

Unlike the embarrassing positions of scientists and scholars before the apocalypse, no one was forcing them to write articles on paper or publish papers in a heavyweight journal. Technology had truly become the first productive force in the apocalypse. The reason why the Beijing capital base could maintain the entire base's electrical and hydraulic power flow was because these scientists had solved all the difficult problems one by one so that the base could appear as a place full of vitality.

Unfortunately, they have not yet overcome the problem of soil and crop diseases and resumed food production. China had always been in the habit of storing food. In the years before the apocalypse, the production of food had been increasing. Every year, the state would collect a stable amount of food and the granary would always be full. Fortunately, when the virus broke out, the order to take care of Chen Liang had yet to be issued. This ensured that the Beijing base would consume at least four years worth of food. Add in the stock of several large supermarkets in Beijing, and the food supply in the base has always been plentiful, but this is only a measure of satiety.

Due to the problem of soil diseases, even the headquarter's leadership had only regularly distributed the fruits and vegetables at the beginning of last year's apocalypse. By now, even the easiest to store, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes and other high-starch crops had all been consumed. However, there were still hundreds of cases left in the apple icehouse in Shaanxi.

As for the common citizens, they had not eaten any fresh fruits or vegetables for almost two years. In order to replenish the vitamin, people have chosen to take the vitamin medicine way. Fortunately, the scientists at the base found another way to synthesize the several vitamins necessary for the human body, and the survivors at the base were able to exchange them for free, which solved the crisis at the base.

Gu Cheng and co. had just arrived, and Mo Jianming, who was leading the way, was not a talkative person. He only planned to go to the Yellow Ox Market tomorrow to check out the new base. The new residence was the same as the one in Tianjin, also having a three-storey duplex design. The Liu Family and Sun Family had chosen the first and second floors respectively, leaving the third floor to Lin Xin and Gu Cheng. This time, Luo Wei and the others had benefited from their presence, so they were placed in an empty house not far away.

Mo Jiansheng led them to their destination before leaving on his own. He did not believe the news that Old Yan and the others had sent back, which was why he had personally come to investigate Gu Cheng's situation. When he saw Gu Cheng and the rest, he purposely examined their energy fluctuations. What surprised him was not that Gu Cheng had no energy response, but that their team actually had an old man with a fire ability who was close to the third level, and a child with a fire ability of the late first level. Putting everyone else aside, most of the people who had awakened their fire ability in the apocalypse were still young and strong.

As for the astonishingly beautiful woman in the convoy, he was indeed stunned for a moment at first glance. However, he quickly averted his eyes as he gained a better understanding of the strength of their convoy. If they weren't powerful to a certain degree, they wouldn't be able to protect such a beautiful woman. However, it was clear that they didn't have such worries.

On the way, he had been extremely courteous towards them. To be able to be praised so highly by Old Yan and the others without mentioning the abnormality of others, Mo Jianming finally believed him. Perhaps this Gu Cheng really had some outstanding qualities.

Of course, no one knew about his thoughts. Seeing that he was about to leave, they only said a few polite words and went back to their own rooms to clean up. Lin Xin went to the third floor to take a look at the cleanliness. It could be seen that the previous owner had also cherished the house and was cleaning it regularly. This time, she did not ask Gu Cheng to hire anyone else to clean up the place. After asking him to fill the bathtub with water, she passed him a long-handled broom, allowing the tall Gu Cheng to first clean up the cobwebs on the ceiling. He took a short handle and began to clean the floor.

This sweep took two whole hours. By the time they were done, they were covered in dirt and grime. Lin Xin jokingly pinched Gu Cheng's face, leaving a black handprint on his cheek. He immediately grabbed her by the waist and sent her to the toilet to punish her. In the end, Gu Cheng was afraid that she would wrinkle her skin after soaking in the water for too long, so he reluctantly let her go. After this mess, the bathroom was now a complete mess. It was a pity that Lin Xin no longer had the heart or strength to clean up. She could only allow Gu Cheng to wrap her up in a large towel and send her to the bed in her bedroom. The two of them had only been apart for a few days. After that, due to the fact that there had been too many people on the road for the past three days, Lin Xin refused to listen to them no matter what. After enduring for too long, he found the opening to her hair. He couldn't control his strength. When he was drying Lin Xin's body, he noticed that her waist and arms were bruised and bruised.

He had originally wanted to suppress her for another round, but now he could no longer bear to bully her. Picking up that bottle of massage compound oil from the bedside table, Gu Cheng poured some into his palms to warm them, following Lin Xin's movements as he pressed a few more acupuncture points on her back to ease her fatigue. When he pressed them to her waist, he specially rubbed a few more acupuncture points where the bruises were, the slight heaviness causing Lin Xin, who had been on the verge of falling asleep, to grunt in dissatisfaction.

Dizzy and driven into a frenzy by the wheezing close to her ear by Gu Cheng, Lin Xin's mind went blank for a moment, unable to understand how all of this had happened. She had clearly agreed to let her sleep after she had massaged her. His body was so tired that he couldn't even lift his fingers. However, his spirit was still working very hard and he couldn't faint. Seeing that Gu Cheng still had no intention of resting, she humphed in a rather aggrieved manner. The tears that had yet to flow down her face were once again licked away by Gu Cheng.

The stars were still blinking outside the window. The night was still long.

The perpetrator knew he was in the wrong, so he wanted to help her massage her muscles to relax. The victim rolled her eyes, but he could only guiltily rub his nose and waited on her for the entire day. He personally delivered everything to her on the bed, coaxing her for half a day before she gave him a good look.

The two of them were rather warm on the third floor, but the two downstairs families were looking at the posts on the table, not knowing what to do with them.

Last night, these families probably expected them to tidy up their house first, so they didn't have time to visit other families. Thus, early this morning, they sent someone over to send out an invitation. It had only been an afternoon, but they had already received six posts from the front and back inviting guests. The Xue Family, who were on the right side of the door, and the Lin Family, who were slightly further behind them. The Xu Family, Yuan Family, Ma Family, and so on. It had always been Gu Cheng who had the big idea in their team, but he had always been holding onto Lin Xin on the third floor with no intention of coming down. Firstly, no one dared to make the decision on their own, and secondly, none of them had the guts to disturb Gu Cheng's meat-eating time. They were all men. Mr Liu had long since noticed that Gu Cheng's eyes had almost turned green as he stared at Lin Xin. The two of them were nowhere to be seen even after noon, how could he not understand who dared to go up and draw aggro?

Therefore, everyone could only wait and pick out their posts. If Gu Cheng and the rest still did not return by 3 PM, they would all take their posts and come over to reject them.

Fortunately, it was around two o'clock when Gu Cheng was finally willing to come downstairs. He was alone, but Lin Xin was nowhere to be seen. Everyone was well aware of this and did not ask.

Gu Cheng looked at the threads from the six clans, leaving behind only one from the Lin Clan. He had asked them to go out early to get rid of the rest. He drove out of the building and asked around at the security post where the base's special ability task force was located. Then, he got down to business.

When they arrived at the destination, the guard had received orders from the higher-ups. Upon seeing Gu Cheng, he immediately informed the captain of the Special A team, Yan Binghui, to pick him up. Gu Cheng only waited outside for a few minutes before seeing Yan Binghui and Vice Captain Ying Chuan trotting over.

"I've been waiting for you." He had just received the internal call from the Guardian Office, and found it hard to believe. In the end, Ying Yin had reminded him to hurry out and pick up the receiver, lest he be robbed by the other teams. Yesterday, the matter of the Major General Mo Jianming personally bringing people into the base had caused quite a commotion at headquarters. Team B's little brats had dug up quite a bit of information from him. They had played this hand and the Ying Sutra was much more powerful than them. They had to release a few smoke bombs to get those who wanted to poach to leave.

"I'm not here to look for you. Who is the person in charge of your special team?" Ignoring the enthusiasm on Gu Cheng's face, he poured a bucket of cold water over it.

The enthusiasm on Yan Binghui's face clearly froze. What he was thinking of was nothing else. He had thought that they had abandoned Gu Cheng that day and left just because they had rescued him, causing Gu Cheng to lose his good will towards them. Ying Zong nudged him with his elbow and continued, "The person in charge of our headquarters is Chief of Staff Liu Shi Liu. Gu Cheng, what business do you have with him? Let's see what we can help him with. Luckily, we had you back then. Our Special A team owes you this favor. "

Gu Cheng actually had a good impression of Ying Jing. This person was unlike Yan Binghui, who had yet to get to the heart of the matter, and directly said, "I have something that I need to ask the person in charge of that. Whether he's here today or not, if he's here, I'll take him along.

"How could a small matter like this be compared to the grace of saving my life?" The Chief of Staff is here today. I'll take you in, but I can't guarantee that he won't see you. "

While Ying Chuan happily led the people inside, he was actually calculating in his heart. From then on, no one owed anyone. How could that be? He still owed them back. Otherwise, where would he find the excuse to go up and talk to Gu Cheng again? He finally understood that the face in front of him was dark, and his hands were even darker. However, he still had some sense of loyalty towards the underworld, and after establishing a relationship with him, if there were any problems in the future, he would be able to use his help if his luck was good. His mind spun again to that woman he had met on the road. When he saw the special numbers of the troops painted on their cars, he forcefully crossed the bus to stop them. He had thought that they had been robbed, but only after conversing for a while did he find out that this woman called Lin Xin was the reason why Gu Cheng had been forced to follow them out of this mission. Yan Binghui, that thick-skinned old man, could only look at beauties, unable to be relied on at all. It was still him who was smart, explaining Gu Cheng's position in detail and giving Lin Xin a crazy amount of affection. To be able to make Gu Cheng care so much about being coerced by others, he believed that the weight she held in Gu Cheng's heart would definitely not be light.

Pity that he was only in his thirties. He couldn't walk away from his wife's diplomatic service alone and could only rely on himself. Thinking about it made him feel a bit sad. It was no wonder that Gu Cheng was unwilling to join their special team. As soldiers, marriage wasn't a free affair. Unless approved by the higher-ups, marriage was usually not allowed. Especially their special team, the unarmed team. It was a pity that they, this group of young men, had two guns. They should have been able to hit the enemy with their long spears and the girl with their short spears. Now that the zombies outside were almost at the third stage, the guns were useless. They could only throw them into a corner to grow mushrooms.

They were brought to the command room on the sixth floor. They had already informed Gu Cheng of their intention to come, and they had been allowed to pass without any problems. Yan Binghui and Ying Zheng were still wondering to themselves why their chief of staff was so easy to talk to this time. He had even let them go on stage without carefully questioning Gu Cheng's identity. Upon entering, he could guess from their conversation that Gu Cheng and the Chief of Staff actually knew each other.

Gu Cheng hadn't expected to meet Chief of Staff Liu here who had been in charge of rescue operations in H City. However, since he was an old acquaintance, it would be easier for him to handle matters. Without saying anything else, he took out a small bag of level one crystal cores from his storage space.

"Gu Cheng, what's the meaning of this?" Chief of Staff Liu stopped the aide-de-camp and went up to open the bag himself. He was surprised to find that they were all of the lowest level crystal cores.

No wonder he was puzzled. Other than the level two crystals, there were also some level three crystals. It would be difficult for them to raise the level of the crystals for the special members because most of them had already reached level three or four.

"I believe that you have already tasted the benefits of a crystal core after I told you about its uses." Gu Shenwei looked at Yan Binghui and Ying Zheng meaningfully. The establishment of these special teams was inseparable from his earlier reminder.

These words caused Ying Jing to be shocked in his heart. The way he looked at Gu Cheng also changed. He understood that this person could no longer be absorbed by their special team. Thinking about how laughable their previous thoughts had been, they had completely not expected that Gu Cheng would reveal the secret of the crystal core that had led to the creation of their special team. It turned out that it had all been Gu Cheng who had revealed it to Chief of Staff Liu. Who was he?

"However, I seem to have forgotten to tell you that it is useless to use a crystal core of the first order or higher to stimulate a normal human's superpower. "If my information is correct, your special team shouldn't have more than two hundred people under them, right?"

The corners of Gu Cheng's mouth curled up slightly. If they had not been in such a rush to establish a strong team and had not gathered all their crystal cores to supply these special teammates, he would not have been able to slip through so easily.

Chief of Staff Liu knew that what Gu Cheng said was the truth. When the last special member advanced to the Second Order, he ordered his soldiers to consume a portion of the crystals he collected. But what made him disappointed was that the amount of crystals he fed to them was clearly one level higher than the original Second Order, while the number of soldiers with special abilities was extremely small. Out of the first batch of one thousand soldiers, less than five of them had used special abilities. In the second batch of experiments, the excitation rate was lower. Out of a thousand people, only two of them managed to trigger their Discipline.

Knowing the value of crystal cores, Chief Liu gave up on the plan to strengthen the common soldiers. All the crystals obtained from exterminating the zombies were gathered together and given to the special team members to consume. He didn't expect that it wasn't the crystal core that had problems, but that the number of levels was too high. But the zombies outside were almost at the third stage, where could he find a first stage zombie?

The pit that Gu Cheng had dug for him was so deep that even if he didn't want to jump, he had no choice but to jump. Liu Shi wasn't a narrow-minded person. It didn't take him long to figure it out. He asked in a deep voice, "How many crystal cores do you have? What conditions?"

"Not much, just a few hundred thousand." Gu Cheng's tone was average as he dropped a bomb on everyone. This time, even though he had calmed down, he still couldn't help but let out a cry of alarm.

Over a hundred thousand of them, just what kind of concept was that!? Even if the special ability awakening effect of the crystal core was 50%, Chief Liu had a total of four divisions under his command. There were nearly 40,000 people, and a hundred thousand crystal cores was enough for each of them to receive three crystals. That was to say, everyone's chance of activating their special ability had increased threefold. At present, the several factions in Beijing were fighting openly and secretly. With such a team of special ability soldiers, who would underestimate their special ability team? Unlike Yan Binghui, who only knew how to complete missions, Ying had received several missions that he shouldn't have, and someone from the higher-ups was pressuring Liu Shi. A special force with formidable strength like them, although they were small in numbers and were less than half the strength of an entire battalion, their combat strength was comparable to a regiment. How could they not attract the attention of others? If not for Liu Shi's rebound, those who wanted to reach out to them would not dare to do so, and could only occasionally "borrow" them.

Of course, Liu Shi was also shocked by this number, but he knew there was no free lunch in the world, so he calmed down and asked, "Then your condition is?"

"Firstly, I want Lin Wenhua and Zhao Chen to leave Tianjin. I don't need you guys to do anything else for me to take care of the rest myself."

It was impossible to expel him from Tianjin in a short period of time, but it wasn't too difficult to lure him out. Liu Shi thought about it for a minute, "Okay, I agree, I'll inform you once I've decided on the specific date."

"Second, give me three water purifiers. Let me borrow them. As for when I'll return them, that depends on your mood."

However, he was not that stupid, asking him why he wanted to borrow people. Knowing that, he would not tell Gu Cheng that he had a total of six 'Panda' water descent espers on his hands, who were responsible for purifying the water sources in his district. It would indeed be difficult to suddenly split up half the loot. However, considering that there might be even more water-type Adepts appearing once he obtained the crystal core, he decided to have the other water-type helpers help him store it up for the time being, as well as cope with Gu Cheng's' depending on his moods' for a while. He nodded in agreement.

"Third, I want half of the suburbs."

As his voice faded, even Liu Shi couldn't help but sigh. Although the suburbs were a wasteland, the terrain was flat. They were just about to turn that piece of land, which was almost a hundred acres long, into a powerhouse factory. The moment Gu Cheng opened his mouth, he had to take half of it. However, this was not the end. While everyone was still in shock, he raised another condition, "Fourth, exchange the same amount of level two or three crystal cores. Alright, these are all my conditions. You can take a look at this bag of crystal cores. Even if I gave them to you as a gift, you can test their effects first. In addition, let me remind you that the Lin Family has invited us to a banquet tonight. The capital base is indeed the capital base. Chief of Staff Liu, if you are not interested in my proposal, then I will be coming to another house in three days to discuss the terms. "Of course, to them, I am no longer a friend. I believe that there will be a lot of people who will be interested in the ratio of 1: 3. The Lin Family cannot afford it, and the Yuan Family and Ma Family …"

Yan Binghui reminded him in a daze, "Lin Wenhua belongs to the Lin Clan."

Gu Cheng had already walked to the door, but was pulled back by his words. He turned around and said, "Business is business, this doesn't stop me from taking Lin Wen Hua's life. "Chief of Staff Liu, if you decide what to do, come find me at Villa Number 12. These proposals will be effective at any time within three days."

With that, Gu Cheng walked out by himself. After saying so much, his mouth was already dry. He casually opened a can of beer from the space and received countless surprised looks along the way. Seeing him throw the beer can and about to get on the car, the little warrior at the kiosk stammered a reminder to him about the dangers of drunk driving. Seeing him throw the beer can and about to get on the car, he stammered a reminder to him about the dangers of drunk driving. He didn't know if Lin Xin had gotten better yet, but when he thought about how she was still angry and unwilling to pay attention to him before she left, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise and her face was full of happiness.
