Chapter 126 [Angel Killer]
Chapter 126 [Angel Killer]
The pickup truck drove on the road at night, and after walking through two streets, there was no trace of pursuit behind him, Chen Xiaolian's heart was a little relaxed, but his brows tightened.
Let Xia Xiaolei buy the system, Qiao Qiao and Luo Di took a healing beast blood, Chen Xiaolian watched Qiao Qiao and Luo Di sit in the back seat** gradually flattened, and then turned his head to stare at Nicole who was driving.
"We need to talk!"
"Say, what do you want to ask. Nicole's eyes were staring at the road ahead, and her gaze was a little deep.
"Who the hell is that guy just now?"
Nicole was silent for a moment, and she whispered, "Thorn Flowers." ”
The name was not unfamiliar, and Chen Xiaolian immediately remembered that he had seen the thorn flower pattern on the wreckage of the thunderstorm chariot.
"Is it a strong team?"
"I'm afraid it's not enough to use 'very strong' to describe thorn flowers. Nicole's smile was a little bitter: "To put it simply, 'Thorn Flower' has always been one of the biggest enemies of Zero City. It can even be regarded as a 'public enemy of Zero City'. Several of the top teams resident in Zero City, as well as Zero City's organization, have been fighting against this thorny flower group all along. ”
Chen Xiaolian took a breath of cool air.
He had seen a qiē in Zero City, and for a small team like the Meteorite Clan, a qiē in Zero City could almost be regarded as a behemoth. And this "Thorn Flower Cluster" is a public enemy that can compete with those top organizations in Zero City!
Note that it is the word "public enemy".
"Say so. The Thorn Blossom is the player's team, and is it the public enemy of all the Awoken?"
When Chen Xiaolian asked this question, he was keenly aware that the smile on Nicole's lips was a little bitter.
Then, he saw Nicole's eyes. The bitter smile from before gradually faded away, and was replaced by a trace of deep pain!
"I'm afraid you're wrong. The Thorn Blossom is not the 'Public Enemy of the Awoken', it is just the Public Enemy of City Zero. ”
"I don't understand what you mean. ”
Nicole suddenly turned her head and glanced at Chen Xiaolian deeply: "Don't you understand? Then what I said is simple and clear! The personnel structure of the Thorn Flower Troupe is not just a simple player!"
"What?!" Chen Xiaolian was really shocked: "You mean ......"
"There are many awakened people, and they are also recruited by the Thorn Flower Troupe. Serve the Thorn Flower! Or take refuge in the Thorn Flower. ”
"Yes...... But we are the Awakened, shouldn't the Awakened be inherently hostile to the player?"
Nicole holds the steering wheel hard with both hands, her fingers very hard. He let out a long breath before he whispered, "Where in this world is there anything absolute." For those of you, we're all NPCs. Even the Awakened, for them. It's just that the more intelligent NPCs can bring them more excitement in the game and a richer gaming experience.
Since players can kill NPCs, they can kill us...... So why can't it be enslaved, exploited, solicited?
And...... Not every Awakened is so determined to fight the player. Some awakened people, in order to survive, or to live better, will naturally have people join the player.
This is normal, even if it is a war between countries. There will be capitulationists and puppet armies.
In your country, in the war with Japan a few decades ago, did there still be fewer traitors and puppet armies?"
Chen Xiaolian opened his mouth. Speechless.
"The Thorn Flower Cluster is very powerful, and the personnel structure is also very complex. Of course, their inner circle is all players. But there are also powerful and brilliant awakened who will be tempted by them, threatened by them, or join them for a variety of different reasons.
Some to survive, some to gain more power. In a word. The confrontation with the Thorn Flower Cluster has always been one of the biggest headaches for Zero City. ”
"That bald man just now......"
"I know that guy. Nicole's eyes jumped. Took a deep breath: "He...... Very famous, is a master of the thorn flower cluster. ”
Then, Nicole suddenly said in a strange tone, "I told you that I belong to the organization of the 'Floating Angels' of the Zero City Security Team.
The Floating Angels are an organization of Zero's security fighters, and it can be said that as security personnel, we have always been on the front line, and in order to defend Zero, we have fought against a variety of different enemies.
Although the Floating Angels team is an honorary organization, there are also core personnel among them. The core main team has a total of twelve people.
These twelve people are called the true 'angels'. He is the strongest twelve people in the floating angel group. The Twelve Angels, all along, have been the core force defending City Zero.
However, the Floating Angels are not invincible, in the battle with the Thorn Flower Troupe, there have been several Floating Angels who died in the battle with the Thorn Flower Regiment, and most importantly, one of the members of the 'Twelve Angels' was killed in battle!"
When she said this, Chen Xiaolian noticed that Nicole's eyes were a little red, and she bit her lip hard.
Chen Xiaolian's heart is also dark!
The Floating Angel itself is already very strong, and the one who can become the best among the Floating Angels and be listed as one of the twelve strongest is not to mention the natural strength.
All those masters died in battle......
"This bald guy just now, he is a famous master in the thorn flower cluster, and he has a very special nickname, which is called ...... Angel Killer. ”
Chen Xiaolian's heart moved: "Angel killer......? Are you ......talking about the man who died in battle one of the twelve angels?"
"It's death at his hands!" Nicole's face was pale, her fingers were a little white, the steering wheel was pinched in her hand and creaked, she seemed to have worked hard to suppress the agitated mood: "The one who died in battle, codenamed 'Angel Keeper' among the twelve angels, was an extremely good warrior, an excellent leader, and an elder who was respected and worn by all the members of the Floating Angels." On a field mission three years ago, the team he led had a tragic fight with the Thorn Flower Troupe in the dungeon. Final ......"
Nicole suddenly bit her lip hard, and a tear slid down her cheek from the corner of her eye.
Chen Xiaolian suddenly felt a pang in his heart: "Nicole, you ......"
"The 'Angel Keeper' who died in battle is my father, my own father. Nicole suddenly turned her head and looked at Chen Xiaolian's surprised expression: "You are surprised? I didn't expect that there would be a father and daughter among the awakened?"
“...... It was a surprise. Chen Xiaolian said in a low voice: "The generation of the Awakened should be accidental and random, right......?"
"It was an accident. Nicole nodded, she quickly wiped away her tears, and said coldly: "I was only six years old that year, I went on a trip with my father, and then I got involved in a copy, and my father and I became the Awakened at the same time!
It is unfortunate for us to be caught up in this cruel world!!!but...... For me personally, it was lucky. Because my father protected me all the way along the way when I was growing up, I was able to survive after becoming an awakened person when I was only six years old.
I am twenty-one years old, and I have been growing up under my father for more than a decade. I was in Zero City, and my father's comrades-in-arms took care of me as if I were his own daughter. My father taught me a qiē...... Fighting, Tactics, Training, Driving Controls...... I followed in my father's footsteps at almost every step.
We fought side by side many times, my father took me from birth to death again and again, I can't even remember how many times, it was my father who carried the hope of my life on his shoulders!
Then, just two years ago, my father never returned to Zero City after that outing!Father's teammates only brought back the floating war pet that belonged to my father!, but he was already so broken that he almost died!!"
Chen Xiaolian suddenly remembered something, and he said cautiously: "After the death of the awakened, it should be possible to refresh into an ordinary person, so ...... your father?"
"Of course he was refreshed. ”
When Nicole said this, she said slowly in a complicated tone: "My father was refreshed in the ordinary world, restored to his ordinary identity in the outside world, and lived as an ordinary person.
But in the memories of the previous sixteen years, the sixteen years of birth and death fighting side by side, the bits and pieces that my father taught me in the past sixteen years, the qiē and qiē...... All these memories are gone.
There is no zài anymore.
He doesn't remember all the adventures we had together, the life-and-death decisions we had made together, the bullets we used to fend off each other!
After being refreshed, the father was just sitting in the garden raising flowers and grass and waiting for the retirement of the accountant.
And for me...... The man who accompanied me for sixteen years in the midst of bullets and bullets is actually gone. Sixteen years of memory, sixteen years of that person, is no longer there!
What comes out of it may only be the person he remembered sixteen years ago, before I was six years old!
Do you know what's the most ridiculous?"
“...... What?"
From the age of six to the age of twenty-one, in the past 16 years, in order to maintain the balance of the system, my father was programmed with a set of memories for 16 years! In this memory, I was just regarded as a daughter who had a very weak and estranged relationship with the family for more than ten years, a daughter who often did not go home to work outside, and a daughter who was very indifferent to him!
I used to leave City Zero once in a while and come home to see him.
But I can't stand the father who once carried the sky for me with his shoulders and fended off bullets for me with his body...... Now he looked at me with a cold and distant gaze.
For me, the true father in my heart, the memory of those sixteen years, is dead!"
