270 Chapter 270
It has to be said that Red Deer is probably the most Calvin-aware person in the world.
At the mention of Azac, Calvin's wings slowly fell.
The pair of extremely beautiful wings were gathered behind him, and although from an outsider's point of view, Calvin's body and appearance were always far from those of a "normal person", but the spread and closure of the pair of wings represented two completely different states.
At least, Calvin could still be described as a "human" when he folded his wings—and even that eerie silver light slowly faded from inside Calvin's body.
But for Calvin, this wasn't exactly a good thing.
"I killed another man. ”
He stared straight at the abandoned bar that was still burning, and the flames were spreading elsewhere. But at this point, there are no firefighters going to respond to the fires here.
The darkness and silence around the explosion and fire were so heavy.
Redbeard's death slowly manifested itself, causing Calvin a subtle, pinprick pain.
He could even vividly recall Redbeard's distorted face under the white light, and the moment he saw the door that appeared out of thin air, the old man's pupils burst with tears of despair, At that moment, Redbeard seemed to be screaming something, but Calvin couldn't hear it clearly......
The image of that brief moment lingered in Calvin's mind.
Calvin knew he had no choice, but that didn't mean he felt good.
Under such a fierce fire, even the redbeard who once dominated the underground world may not be able to leave any traces, and he will be reduced to a charred skeleton, crushed under the layers of masonry and stone ruins. Little by little, his past is being annihilated...... Dr. Rosa, Daniel, Holden...... His childhood, the bar where he used to work, the little piece of calm he and Isaac had managed to find......
And now, Redbeard has died in the explosion and flames in front of Calvin himself.
Calvin stood in silence for a long time in the roaring bar.
Until this time, some people seemed to be aware of the movement.
Calvin heard the footsteps of many people. Some were sluggish, presumably the lunatics who were controlled by Joshua. But more than that, it's a stealthy and fast pace, and rightfully sober humans. But sobriety doesn't mean it's not dangerous – to be able to hold on to Los Angeles for so many days in the chaos of the apocalypse, those people are also unwittingly assimilated as part of the apocalypse.
Thinking of the small self-defense armed groups they faced when they rushed here before, even a cold and cruel person like Red Deer couldn't help frowning.
"I think we should get out of here quickly. ”
Red Deer lowered his head and dropped a gentle kiss on Calvin's hair.
"You're going to do it next. Go to the pharmacy and get some medicine and go back to the three men?I can tell you're worried about Isack's wounds......" he added.
Calvin turned his head and stared at the bar that had burned up completely, a faint silver light in his eyes.
"I thought, I should go see Isaac again. ”
He whispered.
Calvin cheered up and smiled bitterly at the red deer, "The only good news is that I don't think we need to make an extra trip to the pharmacy." ”
He raised his hand and gently stroked the red deer's cheek.
There was a very light abrasion on Reddeer's handsome and deep face, which resembled a marble sculpture, presumably from a small flying stone that had been made by Redbeard's self-detonation.
A thread of blood oozed from the wound, but it had already coagulated by this time.
The wound was so small that even Red Deer himself didn't care about it.
But Calvin lowered his eyes and stared intently...... Stroking the little wound. A cold silver light condensed on his fingertips, then slowly covered the broken part of his skin.
"Hmm......"
The red deer couldn't help frowning slightly because of the special cold feeling that the "power" produced when it entered his body.
Calvin lowered his hand after a few seconds—the scratch on the red deer's face was completely gone.
"Looks like you've discovered your new abilities. ”
Red Deer said.
"Should I say thank you, or should I thank the angels for the miracles they have given me?"
Red Deer asked, smiling against Calvin's forehead.
"No thanks. Calvin said, pausing for a moment, glancing at Red Deer before speaking, "But if you really want to thank me, you can kiss me." ”
Red Deer did so.
……
Let's turn back the clock a little bit.
While Calvin and Reddeer were engaged in a pointless confrontation with Redbeard in that burned-out bar, someone let out a wail of extreme pain half a city away in the safe house that would make even the devil frown.
"Azak, what's going on?!"
Joyce and Han jumped up from the couch at the same time, recognizing it as a scream from Izak.
Yes, the scream could only be described as a "scream", and both officers were terrified, after all, the sound sounded so painful, as if the astonishing fear and pain had been condensed and squeezed out of juice to smear on the vibrations of the sound waves.
And both Joyce and Han knew very well that Isaac Holden was not the kind of person who would be frightened by ordinary nightmares or pain.
"Oh my God, Isaac, you-"
When they rushed to Isaac's bed, Isaac jumped up from the bed like a spring.
He slammed to the ground, but he held his head and screamed as if he were completely oblivious to everything around him.
For a moment, Joyce even thought that Isaac had been controlled by Joshua's brain and had become the pathetic madman, and the guess made his stomach clench.
He and Han rushed up together, pinning Isaac heavily on the bed, controlling the other man's movements.
Isaac let out a long breath, and then the whole person fell silent like a doll with an electricity cut off.
Joyce...... Joyce...... Oh...... Oh, my God...... Joyce, you are Joyce......" After a moment, Isaac stared at Joyce with wide eyes and repeated incoherently, then he turned his head to Han, "You are ......"
"You can call me Han. Han looked at Isaac in disbelief and said, he reached out and shook his hand in front of Isak's eyes, "For God's sake, you'd better tell me you're not crazy." ”
Isaac looked at Han for a while, and the illusory expression on his face, which seemed to be a sleepwalking patient, slowly faded.
But his condition still didn't seem much better, and Joyce was sure that if Calvin could see such an Isaac, he would not be able to safely leave his brother in the care of an outsider anyway.
Isaac grabbed his hair desperately with his hands, and he looked more like a critically ill patient who had just been forcibly removed from a mental hospital than the hard-working police officer Joyce remembered.
Joyce's heart grew heavy a little, and he exchanged glances with Han, each seeing a deep worry on the other's face.
It's not the first time they've dealt with such people – some of the victims they've rescued from the villains (who have often endured years of inhuman torture) experience similar symptoms.
But it doesn't make sense that the same situation happened to Isack, at least in Joyce's years as a police detective, he'd seen so many people with near-death experiences who seemed much better than Isack.
Just when Joyce and Han were in a state of confusion and a rare state of bewilderment, Isaac finally stabilized.
"I made a ...... Nightmare. ”
Isaac muttered nervously.
Immediately after, he shook his head vigorously: "No...... No, no, no...... That's not a dream. ”
Joyce and Han observed Isaac, and from this angle, Isaac's pupils shrank to a small point, proving that he was still extremely tight.
"That's the future, oh my God, the nightmare is so much better than that...... The end of the world is coming, everyone is dead, I want to save everyone, but it doesn't work......"
"Isakh, calm down. You're just mentally shocked. Do you remember? You were shot at point-blank range—"
Joyce said.
He stared at Izak, not knowing why he felt so uncomfortable. Aisak's expression, Aisak's eyes, and Aisak's vague, painful whisper...... All made Joyce feel an inexplicable creepy.
Isakh's gaze was clearly on the two companions in front of him, but he looked like he was looking at the other people through them.
"The first person to die was Han, we were surrounded by those madmen at the docks, Han told us to get on the boat first, but we all knew he couldn't make it. Joyce, it was you who drove the speedboat out of the dock...... We didn't drive far...... Then I heard the madmen laughing madly...... In that moment, we all knew that Han was killed by them...... You're crying, it's the first time I've seen you cry like that......"
"Aysach, stop, that's just your dream!"
"And then you, Joyce, you're dead. We managed to get on that damn cruise ship, and it was like a monster straight out of hell...... The bomb on the point of the structure did not work at all...... The mechanical room, where you said the detonation could have a chain reaction, and we're going to have to blow up the damn cruise ship anyway...... They surrounded us and pursued us, and we fled like rats......"
"Isaac ......"
Joyce heard Han's weak voice, and the latter's hand unconsciously clenched him tightly.
