25. Base life
Wu Yun shook his head in his pocket: "You don't know what it's like to watch me fall from you." If you change the name, that won't happen to you again, I'll change the name right away! β
"Come on." Zhou Yu thought that Wu Yun responded to the sentence "Dogs can't change eating", and he couldn't change his crow's mouth even if he changed his name.
Li Qian: They also rushed over. This kid looked twisted, but the moment he saw Zhou Yu, even his nose turned red.
Han Li directly shed tears, and Dr. Daniel also came to hug Zhou Yu.
The applause rang out, and everyone turned around, it was Song Zhi.
"Zhou Yu, I'm almost going to send your pension to Professor Zhou." Song Zhi said with a smile.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, I'm not dead." Zhou Yu replied.
"You are the person I personally invited, and when I heard that something happened to you, my heart was very sad. If you die, I'm really disappointed. Song Zhi stretched out his hand to Zhou Yu.
This man is truly cold, he can calmly weigh a qiΔ, put aside all extraneous factors, and just look at the result he wants.
Zhou Yu is one of all his measurement factors, and he is indeed sad to lose Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu shook Song Zhi's hand: "Mr. Song, you know...... I have a reason to live. β
Song Zhi glanced at Zhou Qing, nodded and said, "We, Juli Group, have always kept our promises. With us, Prof. Zhou, we get the best research opportunities and top-notch medical conditions. I think you guys have a lot to talk about, and the restaurant is open until twelve o'clock, so I wish you a great evening. β
That night, Wu Yun and Zhou Yu and others had a big meal in the base's restaurant. Wu Yun gave Zhou Yu two cans of beer.
"Hey, supplies are still in short supply here, and beer and cigarettes are luxuries."
"And what about red wine?" Zhou Yu opened the beer and collided with Wu Yun.
"Then only people of Song Zhi's level can use it."
"Song Zhi looks very young, but he has such an important position in Juli Group, I think it's incredible."
"Legends...... I mean legend......" Li Qian lowered his head and whispered, "Mr. Song once dealt with S-class creatures, and that S-class creature was almost killed by him......"
"Kill S-class creatures? That's the creature at the top of the pyramid! I heard that the previous base would be destroyed, also because of a certain S-class creature. β
Dr. Daniel was skeptical.
"It's really exciting news. I haven't heard of it in all the years I've worked for Juli Group. Wu Yun smiled, but his eyes told Zhou Yu that this was not nonsense.
Zhou Qing's fingers trembled slightly. He thought of the S-class creature that had saved him, and the voice that echoed in his head was never heard again.
Everyone then talked about their lives for the rest of their lives. Li Qian only needs to stay in the base to do a good job in system maintenance and related program design. Han Li and Daniel stayed on to work in the medical team. And Wu Yun and Zhou Yu will wait to assign tasks.
"Are you okay?" Zhou Yu asked Zhou Qing.
"Well, there are no adverse reactions at the moment. I had a detailed brain exam after coming here. Miraculously, the tumor didn't grow. Moreover, I completely stopped the kind of side effects they prescribed to me. Zhou Qing said with a smile.
This also made Zhou Yu let go of the heavy stone in his heart.
This was also the most decent dinner Zhou Yu had since coming to the Nibelungen.
After dinner, Wu Yun took Zhou Yu to the base for a walk and familiarized himself with the environment. The ratio of security personnel to researchers and other support staff is 3 to 1. Of course, the highest mobility and loss rate are also the guards and field personnel, especially in the ruined base, I heard that they are all elites. Song Zhi also came to the Nibelungen because of that base.
The area of the base is limited, and there is not much living space for everyone.
Wu Yun called their room a "sleep capsule".
When Zhou Yu opened the door of the room he was assigned, he had to admit that Wu Yun's analogy was very vivid.
There is only one bed for a single person to lie down, and the daily necessities are placed in the mezzanine above the bed, and the space is completely utilized, which is very oppressive, as if the four walls will move towards themselves at any moment, squeezing themselves flat. In such an environment, Zhou Yu would rather sleep outside.
He washed up and lay down on the bed.
The absolute silence at the moment is different from the tranquility in the primeval forest. Zhou Yu closed his eyes, and the small body of Mo Ye appeared in his mind.
How is it now? Did you find anything to eat? Have you had a good rest and sleep? Isn't it scary?
In Zhou Yu's hands were the fruits that Mo Ye had found for him. Zhou Yu threw one of them into his mouth, and the sweet feeling made him feel relaxed. But he couldn't sleep.
After searching for a long time, he finally found a spare pillow, and Zhou Yu held it in his arms, pretending that it was Mo Ye.
But the ink night is softer and warmer.
Live well, Moye.
You have to grow up and become a powerful creature.
Then be free to do what you want.
At this time, Zhou Yu's walkie-talkie rang, and Song Zhi's voice came.
"Although I know you need to rest, there are some questions that I can't sleep if they are not answered."
Zhou Yu understood what Song Zhi wanted to ask.
"Yes."
"I'll be waiting for you in the office."
With that, the communication was interrupted.
Zhou Yuli got up and left his room, and came to the deepest part of the base, which is also known as the safest place, Song Zhi's office.
The office wasn't big, just a desk and two chairs.
Song Zhi clasped his hands, as if he had been waiting for Zhou Yu for a long time. He is like a hunter dormant in the dark, and no lie can escape his eyes.
When Zhou Yu sat down, the office door automatically locked.
And Zhou Yu really had a glass of red wine in front of him.
Although Zhou Yu didn't understand red wine, he picked it up and shook it gently, and he knew that it was definitely not cheap red wine when he looked at its hanging glass.
"You can ask me questions." Zhou Yu said.
"Actually, I can put a little bit of truth potion in the wine. But I didn't do that. I want to hear you be honest. Any secret you want to hide will be the cause of your partner or even your brother. Song Zhi said.
"So may I ask you a question first?" Zhou Yu asked.
"Yes." Song Zhi nodded.
"Have you really come into contact with S-class creatures?"
"Yes. It's beautiful. When I say beauty, I don't mean its appearance, but its haughty freedom to not take anything into account. Song Zhi's answer did not hesitate, completely without thinking.
"So did it seduce you?" Zhou Yu asked again.
Song Zhi lowered his head and smiled: "It doesn't need to seduce me. Its existence is gravity. β
"But you're alive."
"It's my luck. It was also my misfortune. I angered it, and it punished me in the most effective and direct way. β
Zhou Yu looked at Song Zhi, his cold gaze overflowing with sadness.
"My fiancΓ©e is also a researcher here, and she is the one who researches the bullets that can kill the creatures here. And the S-class creature took her away and impregnated her with a child, who wanted her life. I searched everywhere, but I never saw it. β
Zhou Yu didn't expect Song Zhi to have such an experience.
"And all my students and researchers, as well as my colleagues and most importantly friends, have become its nourishment. So I know their dangers better than anyone else. One moment, it can make you in heaven, and the next, it is the abyss of hell. β
At that moment, Zhou Yu saw the coldness in Song Zhi's eyes.
"Now it's my turn to ask you questions. I hope you will give me a true answer, just for Professor Zhou. β
"Of course."
"You did drop your angel horns under the attack of the Antiscale Dragon?"
"Yes."
"Haven't you been attacked by the creatures in the water?"
"I'm not sure if it's a hallucination, I think I've been attacked."
Song Zhi's eyebrows furrowed, and his fingers pinched the edge of the red wine glass, as if thinking about the meaning of Zhou Yu's words.
"What about the Scaler? It just let you go like that? β
"I should have seen the Antiscale Dragon come and kill me, but...... Something got in my way, killing the Scaler. β
"If there's a creature that kills the Scales, it's at least an A-class creature. Is there anything else you're unsure about or that you feel is hallucinating? β
"Yes. It was as if I saw a teenager save me. Then I woke up on the shore. β
After Zhou Yu finished speaking, he looked at Song Zhi's expression carefully.
Song Zhi raised his hand to cover his forehead and didn't speak for a long time.
"Did I encounter an S-class creature?" Zhou Yu asked.
"I think, yes."
"Maybe it's just a coincidence, it never came back again." Zhou Yu said.
Song Zhi shook his head and chuckled helplessly: "They won't save any human for no reason, because they are too arrogant. Creatures below them, they don't even look at them. You must be its target, and we have no idea how they chose their target. β
Zhou Yu was not surprised at all when he heard the news.
"Be careful, I hope you return to our world alive."
"Thank you."
Zhou Yu nodded and left Song Zhi's office.
Song Zhi's judgment and the existence of S-class creatures are extremely keen.
However, life is a journey with no return, and the end point will not change whether or not S-class creatures appear on this journey.
Now that he knew the result, Zhou Yu's heart calmed down.
As he was about to walk back to his room, several passing field agents were chatting.
"Did you hear that? Team Alpha has returned from a mission and brought back an A-class creature! β
