The bulky ambulance let out a low whistle and puffed smoke away, and Ying resolutely stood there for a moment, looking west. There was a figure walking through the crowd, and many people saluted him everywhere he passed—"Li Zhen" had returned.

He took a deep breath, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to his previous dejected appearance.

Li Zhen walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder: "Mourning." You and I ...... this kind of thing I can't even think of it. ”

Familiar tone and voice. Ying resolutely raised his head and looked at the other party's eyes - very clear, it seemed that it was indeed the former Li Zhen. But he remembered Dai Bingcheng's words again, and forced himself to tug the corners of his mouth: "No one was found? ”

"Found it." Li Zhen shrugged, "But ...... It's out of gas. After all, I cremated her as a colleague - it was better than being carried back to the base for research. ”

People didn't bring it back. Ying Ran's face showed the right amount of sadness and helplessness, but his heart was ...... But I seem to feel a little inexplicably happy in my heart.

If this Li Zhen is really fake, then the "crimes" of the "fake Li Zhen" he listed refer to himself, right?!

This means that he may be on the side of the door of truth. And his blood can save people. In other words......

Ruosu is not dead.

Ha...... Ying Ran breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and couldn't tell what it was like. He felt like he had betrayed a lot of things—just as many people had betrayed a lot of things. It made him feel a little uncomfortable and a little pleasant, so he could only murmur, "That's it...... Such...... That's fine, that's fine. ”

Li Zhen sighed in understanding and glanced at him. He looked around again, "How is the dean?" ”

"It hurt my head, but I don't know the specifics." Ying resolutely whispered, "I've already returned to the base." ”

"Oh......" Li Zhen dragged out his voice. She smiled at him again, "Find a place to stay for a while, and I'll take care of some things." There can't be any more chaos tonight, we have to make sure the equipment is safe. ”

"Hmm...... Be. "Resolutely reconciled.

Li Zhen nodded and walked away.

He watched Li Zhen go to the distance and talk to several people in charge of the space base, and seemed to issue a few more orders, then turned his head and jumped into a truck that was about to drive to the northern base. A soldier reached out to help him, and he thanked him. Then he noticed that the other soldiers in the car looked at him a little secretively. The face is not normal. He knew that it must not be because of his captain's epaulettes. It's because of his other identity......

Anjosu's fiancé. Most people know about this.

An Ruosu is also a psychiatrist at the base. The profession of a doctor is always respected by many people, not to mention that she is also a beautiful and charming woman......

Ha, beautiful and charming. It's ironic. I used to think that she was nothing particularly noticeable...... And now, I inexplicably think of her past, and feel that I don't know what evil Lu Dao has fallen into in the past. turned a blind eye to such a woman.

If you get closer to her. Talk a little more. Will she become a normal person and avoid this tonight?

But...... How did she become that kind of person?

Everyone has changed, and Ying Jie definitely feels that there is something incredible about this world.

Is it true that I don't understand anything?

He sat down in the wooden cross seat of the truck's body, pulled out a cigarette case from his coat pocket and pinched it. But empty.

A soldier next to him handed a cigarette. Look at him decisively. Stretched out his hand to take it and said thank you, and then lit the match that the other party stretched out.

The soldier looked at the "supreme officer" in the car, and scattered the cigarette in his hand to the other soldiers. After a few seconds, smoke billowed the body.

The cigarette butts were clearly extinguished, and most of them were gone. At this time, the soldier beside him held back a sentence: "Mourning, sir." ”

Ying resolutely glanced at him, and then at the others. They also nodded silently at him.

Ying resolutely smiled reluctantly, was silent for a while, and suddenly asked something that was neither in line with his identity nor in line with his timing: "You don't hate her?" ”

The soldier was slightly stunned, and then grinned: "We all think there is some misunderstanding." Dr. Ann is such a good person......"

"Such a good person". Ying was stunned, and there was a burst of anger in his heart for no reason - he knew that she was good, but he didn't know it! Is she really good! She's a white knight! It's king! Timid and shy in front of himself, but one finger can crush himself!

He dropped the cigarette butt and stepped on it, stood up and bowed, and jumped out of the speeding truck.

The exclamations of several soldiers quickly faded away, and the world realm was cleared again.

Ying resolutely stood on the ground for a while, put his hand in his trouser pocket and walked slowly along the road, squeezing out a word between his teeth: "." ”

The night was cold, the sky was dark, and a reddish full moon loomed behind the thick clouds.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Thousands of kilometers away. Two figures were walking on the main road.

One tall and one short, two men. It's just that the funny one is that the tall one also has a small lace-edged sun umbrella.

But if you look closely...... It wasn't him who was holding the umbrella. Rather, it was a little girl sitting on his shoulder.

At the moment, the "big man" walked honestly beside Li Zhen, like a frightened child - his face was covered with a thick layer of foundation, which slightly concealed the fine scales. And the mouth was tightly closed, occasionally opening a slit, Li Zhen would casually sweep through, so he quickly closed it again.

In fact, the sun umbrella had almost covered his head, and he relied on his sense of hearing and smell to follow Li Zhen closely.

They're heading east – to the seaside.

Yu Qingqing rubbed his eyes. Her eyes turned black, but if you looked closely, you could still see two faint thin pupils. She sighed: "Why haven't you reached the beach yet......"

Li Zhen laughed: "You still want to see the sea?" Didn't they just come from the sea? ”

"But that's flying!" Yu Qingqing pouted, "And I want to see the seaside - the kind of seaside that is very beautiful." The kind on TV. ”

"Hmm...... All right. Li Zhen smiled. Immediately hearing the roar of a car behind him, he hurriedly pulled the big man, and the two of them avoided the side of the road. The rumbling trucks drove along the road full of people, and the people standing on the bodies looked in amazement at the big man with the sun umbrella, and then left behind laughter all the way.

Li Zhen frowned slightly. Not because "the big guy was laughed at" or something like that, but because ......

This is the eighth truck he's seen today. In the past, you didn't see a single motor vehicle when you walked along the road for a day, but today you saw eight vehicles. And the people in the car—

They're laughing!

Li Zhen had seen many people, whether they were citizens, farmers, or even government employees who had a temporary livelihood guarantee, and their faces were heavy and serious. Because of more than a year of events that have derailed everything, almost everyone is terrified. The shadow of war and the uncertainty and fear of the future oppress them. It's hard to find someone who smiles as happily as people in the old days.

But the people I see today seem to have lifted their hearts from the burdens of their hearts. Looking forward to the future.

What's going on?

With such doubts, they walked forward for more than an hour—and then met three passers-by.

It seems to be three rural elder sisters, with a stout body, talking and laughing all the way.

Li Zhen thought about it. Let the big man follow him from a distance. He walked briskly up.

When he was two steps away, he raised his voice and said hello: "Big sister." Where are you going? ”

A woman glanced back at him. First impressions are always important, and Li Zhen's handsome appearance and neat clothes naturally give a good first impression. The woman's eyes softened, and she looked at the larger man farther back. A smile flashed: "What's wrong?" Something? ”

The three women stopped talking and looked at him together.

All three were empty-handed and brought nothing. It's not like going somewhere to buy something, and it's not like going somewhere to work......

Li Zhen smiled gently: "Let me ask you about something - I saw eight cars driving over today, what are you going to do?" ”

The eldest sister who spoke first opened her mouth in surprise: "Why don't you know the way?" ”

Then he looked at the other two: "He doesn't know what to do!" ”

The other woman smiled and nudged her: "Then you just say it!" ”

Li Zhen said with a smile: "We just came out of the village - we want to go to the city to work. I really don't know anything. In the back were my brother and my sister. ”

The woman's gaze looked over Li Zhen's shoulder—and indeed two tender calves were peeking out from under the sun umbrella.

Her expression softened a little: "Then you really came out of a coincidence." News came a few days ago—"

She mysteriously dragged out her voice: "The electricity is coming!" ”

"Oh...... Such! Li Zhen suddenly realized and nodded.

He didn't show enough surprise, and the woman seemed to feel a little unsatisfied, so she added: "But I can come for more than ten days." ”

Li Zhen knew this better, but this time he opened his mouth wide and was stunned for a while: "Then when can you come?" ”

The woman was more satisfied with his reaction this time, and said as she walked: "The notice said that it will be just a few days." ”

Li Zhen nodded: "Then you and them are ......"

"I'm going to work in the city." The woman smiled with a smile on her face, "Haven't so many factories stopped working, I heard that the electricity that has been coming for more than ten days has begun to recruit people in advance again - take care of food and housing." ”

"You think, just a few days, the factory must have to work overtime, twenty-four hours a day, so you have to find someone to work shifts. We're just going to work, and we need people for any job! ”

Li Zhen let out a slight sigh - I see.

Seize the 10-day national mobilization -- in fact, there is no need for mobilization, and everyone will devote themselves to work with unprecedented enthusiasm. Because this kind of life is too scared. The aurora came suddenly, and everyone was unprepared, and some things commonly used in this era, such as small items such as candles and matches, were sold out early.

While much of this can be produced without electricity, the key issue is population – a huge modern society is fed by energy, and no one can meet such a huge demand without modern factory equipment.

In fact, these short ten days should be the most precious for the military.

Because they can again make massive quantities of ammunition. It's OK......

Use powerful strategic weapons.

He raised an eyebrow. Sure enough, I heard the talkative woman fuss again: "As soon as this telegram comes, the battle over there will definitely be over." ”

Li Zhen wanted to hear what the civilians thought of this war, so he asked, "Huh? What does this say? ”

The woman laughed and said, "You young man must know more than I do." With the atomic bomb! Wouldn't an atomic bomb be dropped and it would be over! ”

Another woman pouted: "How can it be so light." ”

Li Zhen interjected: "But I heard that there is no war with people over there." It's all monsters. ”

"What are you afraid of, don't you all complain that there was no electricity before?" The woman gestured with her hand, "After all, they are all monsters, monsters who don't know anything." When there is no power, we can all keep it, why can't we call when it comes? ”

Li Zhen was silent.

Civilians in the territory of the empire turned out to be such an attitude.

Perhaps the empire has been proud for too long—almost never defeated. Or maybe the official propaganda is so good that everyone thinks that the war is still deadlocked – yes, when there is no electricity. Once there is electricity. And what reason is there for defeat?

It's just that these people don't know what to do, and Auria is about to fall across the ocean.

And...... Again, this is because the Mexican species do not seem to have fully recovered and have not done their best.

He didn't know what the other party had been waiting for, and what had been expanding to a limited extent, but those things did have the ability to land within the empire on a large scale. The only thing he had seen in the Philippines was that he had just stepped out of that uninhabited village. Encounter a class raid on a forward base. It's a cannon bombardment. A "disciple" can also convert all soldiers who resist to the death into xenos.

And the other party is obviously able to transform more than one - there is another by one's side.

Yu Qingqing was also "sent" by that species. The other party is almost courting himself. What is this for? Did you really become the "master" in their mouths?

Li Zhen was full of worries, smiled at the three women, and then slowed down and distanced himself from them. Then I walked for a while. Turn onto a path. Now that people are moving on a large scale, they are no longer fit to walk on the main road.

so as not to cause extraneous branches.

Yu Qingqing seemed to see that Li Zhen was in a somewhat dull mood, and stretched out his hand on the big man's shoulder to hook his hair: "What's wrong with you?" ”

Li Zhen smiled and asked her, "Qingqing, which one are you and ...... Is there still a connection with the Holy Spirit? ”

Yu Qingqing peeked out from under the umbrella: "No wow." ”

"Hmm." Li Zhen nodded. But he didn't believe in the idea that there was no connection between the Holy Spirit and the disciples. But maybe it wasn't Qingqing who deceived him, but the one on the other side of the ocean didn't use this ability.

In fact, he has always had this kind of worry, so when he talked to Du Qixi about the moon landing, he opened Qingqing branch outside the door - just in case.

He couldn't have sent Qingqing away for reasons like secrecy, and as for depriving her of the ability - he could do it. But he didn't want to do that. In such a world, there is no ability more suitable for Qingqing than being able to control the "xenomorph". If the Lowest Species and the Gate of Truth are defeated, then Qingqing will become a member of the New World Realm. If the human side had been defeated and the old order had been restored, then he could have made her a normal person by that time.

Although this is a strong little girl, her soft body is also very fragile. She needed a little bit of self-defense.

Their goal is the seaside, to find the dragon. But he also believes that another guy will also appear - it is impossible to find the Spear of Longinus without being noticed by the people at the Gate of Truth, and perhaps the spy lurking in the base is already on the move.

The official version is that the aurora will appear in a few days. This means that Shen Mu's theory is indeed correct as he says it is - only with a slight deviation. However, such an insignificant deviation in Shen Mu's mouth compressed Li Zhen's preparation time, so they stopped on the path and looked left and right.

Silence and no one.

So Li Zhen asked Yu Qingqing to put the umbrella away, and then asked her to hug her neck on her chest like a big man.

Qingqing realized what Li Zhen was going to do, and shouted. Li Zhen nodded her head: "You can't call it that in the sky for a while-your mouth will be filled with wind!" ”

Qingqing immediately closed his mouth obediently. So Li Zhen flew - a pair of flame wings stretched, but there was not the slightest temperature under his control.

He rose into the air, grabbed the "big man's" hand, and shot straight into the sky like a sharp arrow.

The xenomorph roared in fright at the rapid height, while Yu Qingqing giggled.

A flaming flap swept across the sky, as fast as it seemed to pop.

The three women walking on the road glanced at the sky, and immediately stopped and opened their mouths.

After more than forty minutes of flying, the coastline was finally visible in the distance. It's just that it's empty, just the sea breeze and the waves. There are beaches, but they are not the white, long, sandy beaches that Yu Qingqing imagined—the sand is crushed by the hideous reefs, and there are floating garbage and clumps of seagrass everywhere.

There was a pungent smell of fishy water in the sea, as if there had been an aquarium war here, and countless corpses were rotting below the sea, and the stench was overwhelming.

====================================================

There are a lot of things to move these days, so I insisted on two days and felt that it was impossible to change in the last few days. Therefore, 5,000 words of updates are guaranteed every day for a few days after today.

If it is fast, it can be restored after three days, and if it is slow, it will take four to five days.

I still have to update 300,000 this month, and if I have the ability, I'll slowly make up for the number of words I owe these days. (To be continued......)
