"What impact will this plan have on the current life in Qinggang?"

"How much is this plan expected to cost?"

"How do you ensure the security of this plan?"

"..."

After Professor Bai finished speaking, he faced everyone in the audience and waited for others to ask him questions.

Some of the people attending this meeting must already know the plan very well, so not many people spoke up.

Only a few researchers who seemed to have heard about this project for the first time like Lu Xin, and people who looked like ordinary people but had very extraordinary temperaments, raised their hands and raised several questions to Professor Bai on the stage from various aspects.

Professor Bai is obviously a well-prepared person and answered these questions calmly.

Whether it is speculation on the subsequent impact of Qinggang, or the cost of the overall plan, as well as safety and emergency measures.

This question and answer session took about half an hour.

The commotion in the conference room gradually subsided, and many people were already deep in thought.

It was obvious that this was a well-prepared plan, and theoretically, it had a high probability of success.

Moreover, the current discussion is about whether to conduct experiments on this plan, which is similar to the testing phase of a project.

There was no reason to object to this plan, but there were still many people with doubtful expressions.

"We have all participated in internal discussions, and we all understand the current situation."

At this time, Minister Shen raised his hand and said in a deep voice, "Because I have known for a long time and know a lot, maybe I can represent the people present and ask the most critical question, that is, who is the core candidate of the entire Heavenly Kingdom Plan?"

"Uh-huh!"

In the conference room, many people were suddenly excited and nodded secretly.

It was as if the most sensitive part of my heart had been touched.

"This is also the issue we consider the most, and it is also the core of today's meeting."

Professor Bai was already prepared, nodded slightly, and then answered:

"If you want to become the core of Heavenly Kingdom Plan, you need to meet two conditions:"

"First, its ability must at least reach Third Stage. It can use its own ability to affect the strength of the entire Qinggang Main City and five Satellite City. It also needs to have the potential to withstand the field of an entire city without being backlashed by spiritual power and causing loss of control."

"Second, this candidate must be someone worthy of our trust."

Having said this, he paused, and his voice seemed to be more serious because of this, and said:

"He needs to have enough resistance and will not take this opportunity to try to become the god of Qinggang..."

"It must be admitted that if this plan is really implemented, this core candidate will stand at an absolute height on the spiritual level. By then, the entire Qinggang people will be under his influence, which means that he can pollute everyone."

"We cannot underestimate or ignore human ambition and desire. This is human nature, and there is no shame in admitting it."

"Although there are countermeasures in our plan, but..."

His eyes quietly swept across all the people in the audience, and he said softly, "None of us want to get to that point."

"If the situation develops to the point where this person tries to control the entire Qinggang, and we have to use countermeasures to suppress him, it will only mean that our entire plan has failed. Not only will it fail to protect Qinggang, but it will lead to collapse."

"To put it simply..."

He exhaled softly and said, "Qinggang needs to believe in this person, and this person also needs to believe in Qinggang."

"This kind of trust even needs to reach the level of trusting one's life."

"Qinggang entrusted everyone's life to him, and he entrusted his life to Qinggang..."

"..."

This sentence suddenly made the atmosphere in the conference room extremely depressed.

Life-entrusting level of trust?

Not to mention discussing this sentence, even mentioning it will make people feel ridiculous.

After all, Crimson Moon is short.

Now the entire wilderness is in a state of collapse of order.

And the person they want to choose is someone who is willing to make selfless contributions to Qinggang.

A person who has promoted the other party to a high position, but does not have the ambition to rule the entire Qinggang?

However, for more people, what they pay attention to is another content in Professor Bai's words.

Although Professor Bai made it clear that if it comes to the point where it is necessary to counteract this core figure, the plan will be considered a failure. However, as long as there are countermeasures, to a certain extent, as an ordinary person, you can still maintain a sense of security.

"Who are the candidates?"

Finally someone asked this most critical question.

Professor Bai also raised his head, his face looked very serious, and said, "We in Qinggang are very lucky."

"Many High Wall City may not even have a suitable candidate, but we have two in Qinggang who can meet these conditions."

"One is Kid."

"The other one is Mr. Single Soldier."

"..."

Swish, swish, swish.

Lu Xin felt that more and more eyes were looking at him.

Some of the glances that were secretly looking at him at this time were too late to hide, and they were directly seen on his face.

Professor Bai looked directly at himself and said, "Since Mr. Shanbing was recruited by the Special Purity Department, he has been very good at cleaning up special pollution data, but in comparison, I prefer Kid. Kid was originally not suitable for this task because her autistic personality made her lack the conditions to communicate with outsiders and it was difficult for her to take on the heavy responsibility of this plan, but now she has changed."

"She began to communicate with the outside world, but she still retained her inner kindness. Compared with an individual soldier, we have a deeper understanding of her, both in terms of abilities and personality. Therefore, Kid almost perfectly matches this plan to a certain extent."

"And this is why I prefer her."

"Of course..."

Having said this, his eyes calmly fell on Lu Xin and said softly, "It's too early to say this now."

"Before the experiment of this plan can officially begin, I need to ask for your opinions."

"..."

He is very steady, speaks clearly and calmly, enough for everyone to hear clearly without being anxious or agitated.

But because of what he said, the atmosphere in the conference room was becoming extremely depressing.

Everyone's eyes fell on Lu Xin's face, and you could feel the depression, anxiety, and worry in his eyes.

Lu Xin knew in his heart that the core of this meeting was himself.

But he somewhat didn't understand. "Why are they so nervous?"

"What are they worried about?"

"..."

While he was silent because of doubts, Mom, sitting behind him, suddenly let out a relaxed laugh.

"Because they are not sure about your attitude..."

She smiled and explained to Lu Xin, "Actually, this is a rare opportunity to enter Mental Lord's level."

"Do you know what this means?"

"Once you become Mental Lord, you will transcend the status of ordinary people. Just like the old man said, you will become a god-like existence. The fate of everyone in Qinggang will be in your hands. Everything, whether it is money or anything else, will be in your hands. You will own everything, always higher than others, looking down on others..."

"So, there may be many people who would sacrifice everything for such an opportunity, right?"

"Your work performance in Qinggang is so good. They can't ignore you when proposing such a plan. However, they really don't dare, or even fear to let you take this position. They are afraid that you will be interested in this position, and they are even more afraid that you will come to snatch it. They are afraid that you will not be satisfied..."

"So, how can they not be worried or nervous now?"

"..."

After listening to Mom's words, Lu Xin finally understood.

He sat quietly in his seat, as if he was thinking seriously, and then a smile slowly appeared on his face.

He was not moved by this question, and even found it a bit ridiculous.

Perhaps, with a sudden thought, this whole city belongs to him, and all the money and everything belongs to him.

It's quite tempting.

But Lu Xin really can't figure out a problem: if all the money and everything belongs to him.

Then what do you buy with your money?

What a paradox, this is...

However, when he was seriously thinking about this issue and even talked to Mom in a low voice, the entire conference room seemed unusually quiet. Everyone was looking at him, with serious expressions, even nervous. They looked at Lu Xin sitting there quietly, tilting their ears slightly, as if there was an invisible person chatting with him in the row of empty seats behind, and then a smile appeared on his face.

It can even make your scalp feel numb.

Even the big shots sitting in the first row, many people quietly moved their Adam's apple at this time.

There is a feeling of being so nervous that your throat becomes dry.

They all hoped that Lu Xin would express his position quickly, but they were worried that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would give an answer they didn't want to hear.

"I just have one question."

In the anxious and nervous mood of countless people, Lu Xin, with a sincere smile on his face, slowly raised his head.

Then asked softly, "Kid agree?"

"Gudong..."

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Lu Xin seemed to hear the sound of saliva swallowing back into his stomach.

The depressing atmosphere in the entire conference room seemed to have suddenly disappeared.

Lu Xin is happy for them because they are relaxed.

However, I still felt an unhappy emotion because of this subtle change.

In other words, this is not unhappy, just a reflection.

What are they doing badly? Why do they still not believe in themselves?

He didn't express this unhappiness, and naturally others couldn't feel it either. They just showed an unconcealable sense of relaxation and even excitement, as if a big stone had finally been moved away from his shoulders, and a drowning man's head was sticking out of the water.

During the whole scene, only Han Bing, who was sitting behind Lu Xin, looked at him quietly, as if he felt something.

There was an expression on her face that she didn't know whether it was concern or sympathy.
