Chapter 959: I Can Never Forgive Myself
The peaceful days are always short. After a few days of rest, another beast tide broke out in the new second district.
Qing Zhao had to go to support again to protect the safety of the city.
At the same time, Qing Zhou was completely immersed in the production of the ninth-level wild crystal and didn't care about other things.
For the wild crystals and materials sent by others, Qing Zhou didn't even ask where they came from, and directly took them to practice.
When the guards told him that he needed to take the container he made away, Qing Zhou just nodded, indicating that he knew, and didn't ask any more questions.
At this time, he only had eyes for the ninth-level wild crystal.
After repeated design and thinking, a drawing of a cornucopia finally appeared on Qing Zhou's laboratory table.
Qing Zhao came to visit many times after completing the task, but every time he only saw Qing Zhou concentrating on the production, forgetting to eat and sleep, so he chose to stand quietly by and observe for a moment, and then left silently without disturbing him.
And Qing Zhou was so focused that he never noticed Qing Zhao's presence.
Time flies, and nearly a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Qing Zhao went to Qingzhou Laboratory less and less frequently.
Because the wild beast tide outside has not only not decreased, but has increased after he successfully repelled it several times.
Often two or three districts are attacked by wild beast tides at the same time.
Qing Zhao is just one person, even if he is the most powerful person in the world, he is exhausted in defending the city.
When Qing Zhao returned to the new area again, it had been three months since he last came to Qingzhou Laboratory.
The guard at the door saw Qing Zhao and hurriedly shouted respectfully:
"Lord God of War!"
"Well, how is it?"
Before Qing Zhao entered the research institute as usual, he asked the guard about the situation of Qingzhou during his absence.
A guard said quickly:
"Master Qingzhou said that his experiment has reached a critical period, and asked us not to disturb him before he comes out. The materials sent by other masters in the past few months have not yet been handed over to Master Qingzhou for production."
Qing Zhao frowned slightly, and his aura was unconsciously released. He asked with a slightly gloomy face:
"He hasn't come out once in these three months?"
There are a large number of energy bars placed in the institute, and it is equipped with perfect infrastructure, food and water sources and other supplies.
As long as Qingzhou himself doesn't want to come out, he can stay in it for a whole year without going out.
But according to Qingzhou's previous living habits, he usually comes out several times a month.
"Yes, yes...Master Qingzhou emphasized before that this experiment is very important, and repeatedly told us not to disturb him."
Faced with Qing Zhao's sudden increase in aura, the guard seemed a little nervous and his speech became less fluent.
They were not qualified to enter the institute.
So although they felt that it was a bit abnormal that Qingzhou had not come out for such a long time, they still didn't dare to enter rashly.
After all, Qingzhou had already told them in advance that no one was allowed to disturb him.
Qingzhao pushed aside the guards, opened the door of the institute through the facial recognition access control, and walked quickly inside.
After entering, Qingzhao could clearly feel that there had been no traces of human activity in the entire institute for some time.
Cleaning robots would build the institute every day, but as long as there were people, it would never be so spotless.
In order to avoid peeping, the entire institute was built with materials that blocked mental power.
This made it impossible for Qingzhao to use mental power to find Qingzhou, and he could only walk quickly towards the place where Qingzhou usually made containers.
Then, the federal war god, who was majestic and serious throughout the entire Sanlian Continent, showed a panicked expression for the first time.
Because he saw Qingzhou lying on the ground and losing consciousness!
"Qingzhou!!"
Qingzhao didn't have time to think about it, and teleported directly to the side of Qingzhou who fell to the ground, pulling him into his arms for a closer look.
Finding that the person in his arms still had body temperature, Qingzhao breathed a sigh of relief.
Qing Zhao once secretly put the source material he exchanged from the Federal Bureau into Qing Zhou's diet to strengthen his body.
Therefore, Qing Zhao's first reaction was that Qing Zhou fainted due to excessive fatigue during the process of making the container.
However, when Qing Zhao further examined Qing Zhou, his face became paler and paler.
Because the person in his arms, although still breathing and body functions, was unconscious.
Qing Zhao could not feel even a little mental power in Qing Zhou.
This made him feel panic, and he quickly input his mental power into Qing Zhou's body, but found that his mental world was like a bottomless pit, no matter how hard he tried, he could not fill it.
"Qing Zhou! How could this happen?! Qing Zhou! Wake up! Qing Zhou!!"
Qing Zhao's shouts echoed in the research institute, with sadness and fear that ordinary people could not imagine.
He kept shaking Qing Zhou's body, trying to wake him up, but Qing Zhou kept his eyes closed and did not respond.
After many attempts and examinations, Qing Zhao finally realized in despair that Qing Zhou, his younger brother, had completely lost consciousness.
It was as if his soul had been sucked out, leaving only an empty shell.
At this moment, Qing Zhao noticed that there was a bowl on the experimental table.
It was a bowl engraved with complex patterns.
Qing Zhao was very familiar with this bowl because he had made an identical bowl himself.
When Qingzhou was a child, he secretly asked someone to give the bowl to Qingzhou and told Qingzhou that he had a brother outside.
He knew that Qingzhou regarded the bowl as a treasure.
But he never told Qingzhou that the bowl was given by him and that he was the brother that Qingzhou wanted to see day and night.
The bowl on the experimental table at this time was exactly the same as the one Qingzhao gave Qingzhou, but it was not the one Qingzhao gave.
Qingzhao slowly walked to the experimental table and carefully observed the bowl.
He found that it was actually a container.
He suddenly realized a terrible idea.
"It's because of this container... It's because of this container..."
Qingzhao's hand holding the bowl trembled slightly,
"Did it make you like this...?"
Qingzhao tightly grasped the bowl-shaped container, and the expression on his face became extremely painful.
A line of tears fell on the face of the god of war.
"Qingzhou, I haven't told you that I sent you the bowl..."
"I haven't told you that I am the brother you always wanted to find..."
"Because I can't protect you completely, I thought I still have time..."
"But I hurt you with my own hands..."
Qing Zhao murmured to himself, his voice full of pain and regret.
It was him who brought Qingzhou from underground to this research institute!
It was him who supported Qingzhou in researching containers!
It was him who sent the ninth-level wild crystal to Qingzhou!
It was him, it was him, it was him!
It was him who hurt Qingzhou!
He can never forgive himself! !
