Volume 1 Anno 4 Ward Chapter 7 Entry
During Zhao Xiao's coma, Wang Dean had already taken him to the new city of District 4, where Zhao Xiao lived in an apartment building only 50 meters away from the Rubidium General Bureau.
At this time, there was a gentle knock on the door, and Zhao Xiao opened the door to find a man in a dark red military uniform standing straight at the door, the man was wearing a golden medal on his chest, obviously he was a first-order rubidium spirit.
"Hello, Mr. Zhao Xiao." The man bowed slightly, "My name is Yuan Yongwen, please come with me." ”
Ascending an orderly manner along a wide staircase, the building of the General Administration of Rubidium is completely white, and the overall design is bright, with a lifelike golden dove hanging in the very center of the building, giving people a solemn feeling.
Zhao Xiao hurriedly passed by a team of rubidium spirits, and when they saw Yuan Yongwen beside Zhao Xiao, they all bowed slightly and left in a hurry.
The building is located in the center of District 4, and there are no other buildings within a radius of 100 meters except for the Rubidium Apartment, and the nearest building to the Rubidium General Office is also 100 meters away.
Zhao Xiao was a little nervous, looking at the rubidinous spirits passing by beside him with hurried expressions, and remembering the tragic situation of those children in the armament center the night before, he was wondering if all the living rubidium spirits had to experience the battle that night.
"You don't have to be nervous, it's just a normal question." Yuan Yongwen saw that Zhao Xiao was silent all the way, so he accosted him.
"It's okay, I'm not nervous, I'm just thinking about things."
"Try to relax, this is a place you will frequent." Yuan Yongwen continued.
Zhao Xiao pursed his lips, he also wanted to relax, but anyone would be nervous when they came to this kind of place for the first time. Rubidium Ling, who hurriedly walked by beside him, frowned tightly and looked serious. From time to time, a pure black military uniform with a diamond medal on his chest passed by, and the rubidium spirits beside him bowed one after another, even Yuan Yongwen bowed deeply, and Zhao Xiao followed suit.
Standing beside the gate were two rubidium spirits in navy blue military uniforms, standing on both sides of the gate with long axes in their hands, and saluted when they saw Yuan Yongjie.
"In the past, Rubidium was far from the scale it has now, and seriously it was just a ragtag army, and after more than ten years of development, it has become what it is today. Now the puppet is not as rampant as before, so the Rubidium Spirits are divided into squads to carry out tasks, and when there is a big operation, they will gather together to act. Yuan Yongwen looked at the street sign and explained. Rubidium can not only reverse the fate of humanity, but also the ....... of this world Pattern. ”
"Turning the tide of the world?" Zhao Xiao was stunned, he thought to himself, why is what Yuan Yongwen said the same as what Zhao Jing said? Obviously, Zhao Xiao still can't understand the so-called collapsed world and world pattern, which are obscure in his current thinking.
Then Yuan Yongwen took Zhao Xiao to an iron door, Yuan Yongwen patted Zhao Xiao on the shoulder and motioned for him to go in.
Zhao Xiao instinctively took a step back, he was afraid that behind this door were those damn experiments.
Yuan Yongwen frowned, he took out a silver key from his pocket and inserted it into the lock cylinder, there was a sound of gears creaking and turning from inside the door, and with the sound of the deadbolt retracting, the door opened.
A huge dim room appeared in front of Zhao Xiao's eyes, a huge white dove hanging flag hung in the center, a lifelike three-winged angel statue stood on the right side of the space, and on the other side was a bunch of people in the raging fire, with painful expressions on their faces, Zhao Xiao guessed that it was a fake statue.
Zhao Xiao slowly entered the room, Yuan Yongwen did not follow in, but stood outside the door and slowly closed the door.
There was a chair above the hanging flag, and an old man sat on the chair, dressed in a pure black trench coat that seemed to blend in with the surroundings, and the old man's gray and white hair was combed neatly.
A white candle was burning beside the old man, and the green smoke was slowly rising.
Zhao Xiao and the old man sat opposite each other, in this huge room, as if the old man was looking at Zhao Xiao.
Zhao Xiao recognized this old man as the person who rescued Yuan Cheng the day before yesterday, and Zhao Xiao looked at his face vigilantly.
"Hello, third-order Zhao Xiao, my name is Yuan Xiaoli, you performed well the day before yesterday." The old man spoke.
"It's just normal self-defense."
"Normal? Normal children don't have the physical fitness you have. Under the illumination of the candlelight, the old man's eyes stared at Zhao Xiao like an eagle, as if he regarded him as a prey.
Zhao Xiao's brain was buzzing, "That...... That's not what...... What is the effect of R-class fortifiers? Zhao Xiao said tremblingly.
"Well, it's far-fetched, it's not that we don't know the effect of R-level enhancers, even if you have the blessing of the shark, it's impossible to stab the hearts of eight people in three seconds." The old man stared at Zhao Xiao's eyes.
"Actually, I came to you to ask if you want to join our Yuan Clan, the largest power group in the 4th district of Anye." The old man said slowly, "If you agree, you will fly all the way with Yuan Cheng to the top." ”
Zhao Xiao's nervous heart gradually eased, "Yuan's ...... Is it ......?"
The old man stretched out his right hand, "It's good if you know, if you agree, we will do our best to cultivate you and Yuan Cheng, if you don't agree, your consequences can be imagined." Although the old man's tone was flat, it could not hide the strong threat.
In the huge room, the three-winged angel silently watched a boy half-kneeling and kissing the back of the old man's hand, and the pseudo-statue on the other side seemed to be crying in a low voice, I don't know whether it was because of excitement or sadness.
The old man looked at the boy who was kissing the back of his hand, then he clapped his hands, and suddenly the door opened, and three of them were holding a stack of papers, one carrying a military uniform, and the other holding a scabbard and a rubidium spirit in a navy blue military uniform slowly walked in.
On him was a brand new navy blue military uniform, and the Rubidium Spirit, who dressed him, took off the bronze medal from his chest and took a silver medal instead, and above the golden dove pattern, a golden two was impressively engraved!
"Just yesterday, the 4th group of the second order was completely wiped out, and now you will be the captain, and I will find someone to arrange the rest." Yuan Xiaoli said.
"Thank you, Grandpa Yuan." Zhao Xiao bowed.
With the cumbersome signing and sealing, the General Administration of Rubidium Ling quietly added a second-order Rubidium Spirit.
Looking at Zhao Xiao, who had just put on the scabbard, the scene of that night suddenly appeared in the old man's mind, on the circular platform, a boy covered in blood knelt in a pool of blood and sobbed lowly, he was surrounded by a circle of fleshy corpses.
"This sight...... How déjà vu looks. The old man squinted slightly.
Suddenly, a scene flashed through his mind.
One night more than ten years ago, in an underground research institute, Zhao Ziqing watched the corpses on the ground slowly kneel on the ground after slaughtering all the researchers, and then sobbed silently......
It's like, it's really like, they're all on their knees and sobbing, are they crying for the dead? Or is it for the sake of a world on the verge of collapse?
