319: Chapter 319 Bu Ke'er's Crisis (Part 1)
"I have no way to prove what you said is true for the time being, but I also cannot prove it is false, so you cannot leave my sight for now. Once I am certain you are not dangerous, I will grant you freedom."
"You must follow me now."
"Can you do that?"
Lu Zheng looked at General Bu Keer and said, his face showing that signature smile, while General Bu Keer, standing to the side, found the smile somewhat creepy, and naturally, she was ten thousand times unwilling in her heart.
She did not awaken early just to be monitored by someone; there were many things she needed to do.
How could she possibly waste all her time on this person named Lu Zheng? General Bu Keer did things with a clear conscience; why would she need anyone else's approval?
"Fine, no problem!"
General Bu Keer smiled slightly and did not refuse the request Lu Zheng put forward. On the surface, she appeared to agree, but in her heart, she had already cursed Lu Zheng from head to toe.
This wasn't asking at all.
This was clearly a threat!
If I, General Bu Keer, agree, that's fine, but if I don't agree, are you planning to let me experience that so-called nuclear bomb that blew Gong Zhizhuan to death?
Lu Zheng, I will remember this grudge today!
You just wait; once my father wakes up, you'll get what's coming to you.
General Bu Keer muttered in her heart, while Lu Zheng, regardless of what she was thinking, saw that General Bu Keer was so sensible and dismissed the idea of taking action. If General Bu Keer had refused just now, he really intended to suppress her and then take her away.
After all, a Fourth-Rank General of unknown origin, especially when the Second Spiritual Energy Revival was about to begin, who knew what kind of trouble she might cause.
"Boom, boom..."
A fighter jet flew through the high altitude. Lu Zheng and General Bu Keer had already appeared in the rear cabin of the fighter jet. General Bu Keer felt very curious about this brand-new thing.
Her eyes were filled with deep interest.
It clearly had no trace of power fluctuations, yet relying solely on technology, this steel bird possessed such fast speed, and this speed had even reached the high-end of the Fourth-Rank.
The so-called technology of this era is truly amazing.
Before General Bu Keer could understand anything about this thing called a fighter jet, she was surprised once again.
"Are you saying that just by relying on this thing, one can communicate and talk across vast distances?"
"And it doesn't use Spiritual Qi?"
General Bu Keer said in shock, looking at the palm-sized object in Lu Zheng's hand. She had just heard Lu Zheng talking to this object, and it had even emitted the voice of another person.
She was not unfamiliar with this voice; it was that Fourth-Rank old man she had communicated with earlier, who seemed to be called Master Long.
"Mhm, this thing is called a mobile phone. You can communicate with people thousands of miles away without using Spiritual energy."
"Although it doesn't use Spiritual energy, it needs electricity."
"Electricity?"
"What is that?"
General Bu Keer heard a new term again. Her large eyes were filled with great confusion. To her, everything in this world was too novel.
"Do you know about thunder on rainy days?"
"That thunder is electricity."
Lu Zheng said casually, but he did not expect General Bu Keer to be suddenly shocked.
"What!"
"You can already control thunder and lightning, and this tiny thing contains such terrifying thunder and lightning?!"
The eyes with which General Bu Keer looked at the mobile phone held a trace of shock and fear. In her era, there were also existences who could control thunder and lightning, but they were all extremely powerful experts.
After all, even at her Peak, she would not dare to take that thunder and lightning with her Physical Body, let alone now, where a single bolt of lightning would be enough to strike her dead.
The kind of dead that couldn't be any deader.
This tiny thing actually contained such terrifying power; this era is truly amazing.
General Bu Keer took a step back, keeping far away from the mobile phone in Lu Zheng's hand. Meanwhile, Flying Eagle, who was piloting the fighter jet, heard General Bu Keer's words, and his eyes also revealed a deep sense of surprise.
Where on earth did General Lu Zheng find this woman?
It seems like she doesn't know anything.
She doesn't even know about a mobile phone, something everyone has. I don't know if it's real or fake. If it's real, then she is too backward.
And what is General Lu Zheng planning to do by bringing such a woman along?
Flying Eagle was somewhat puzzled, but in the next second, he suddenly froze, and a trace of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"You are a dignified Fourth-Rank General; can you not make such a fuss!"
Lu Zheng looked at General Bu Keer and said slowly.
And these words fell into the ears of the pilot, Flying Eagle, like a thunderclap.
This woman is actually a Fourth-Rank General!
An expert of the same level as General Lu Zheng.
Flying Eagle could not help but start breathing rapidly. Just a moment ago, he had even mocked this Town General. He, Flying Eagle, really deserved to die!
Lu Zheng noticed Flying Eagle's abnormality; these words were also meant for Flying Eagle. After all, he could be indifferent, but Flying Eagle could not. If he said something wrong and provoked General Bu Keer, although he would intervene, he was still afraid of the worst-case scenario.
It seems that the era General Bu Keer came from did not light up the technology tree.
Knowing that the more he explained, the more confusing it would get, he then said.
"This mobile phone is not as complicated as you think. The electricity inside is just an insignificant bit of that thunder and lightning."
After receiving Lu Zheng's explanation, General Bu Keer also let out a sigh of relief, but she still maintained a trace of vigilance toward this tiny mobile phone.
Although it only controlled an insignificant bit of thunder and lightning, nothing that could control thunder and lightning was simple.
"This... mobile phone, it must be very precious, right?"
General Bu Keer asked Lu Zheng.
"It's alright. Everyone has one in their hands, and some people might even have two or three."
"It doesn't count as anything precious."
"Once you have an understanding of our era, you will know exactly what this is. Can you be quiet for now?"
Lu Zheng said. Although there was a lot he wanted to know from General Bu Keer—which was one of the reasons he kept her by his side—the matters involved were too significant, and this was clearly not a very good place.
Moreover, there was plenty of time, so there was no need to rush for the moment.
"Hmph!"
General Bu Keer looked at Lu Zheng before her and snorted coldly in her heart. If she weren't unable to beat this person, she would have resisted long ago.
"You just wait."
"I don't need to wait for my father to wake up. As long as the Second Spiritual Energy Revival begins, my strength will recover a bit, and then we'll see if you are still my match!"
General Bu Keer muttered in her heart, but she did not dare to say it out loud. She obediently nodded and made a gesture of sealing her mouth.
Who knew if this Lu Zheng, who used that so-called nuclear bomb to blow Gong Zhizhuan to death, would blow her up too.
However, because of this, General Bu Keer was even more curious about this era. After she awakened, she had only been busy worrying about the Evolved Beast situation, so she hadn't had time to understand this world.
Now, following Lu Zheng seemed to be a good choice, so she would just follow him for the time being.
However, it didn't take long before General Bu Keer, who was too curious about this world, couldn't help it. Since she couldn't talk to Lu Zheng, surely she could talk to the man sitting in front?!
"Hey... what's your name?"
But facing the inquiry of a Fourth-Rank General, Flying Eagle dared not refuse to answer, so he could only start chatting with her sentence by sentence.
