Chapter 689 Peer on

The movements of both sides stopped at this moment at the same time. Wu Qi's long knife sank into Renee's chest, and Renee's lightsaber also pierced through Wu Qi's body.

Half a second before that, Renee used her second-order ability, Dragonbones, to change the shape of her bones, and the snow-white liquid bones sealed and solidified the blades just as the long knife was about to pass through the rib gap, and the two blades that stuck into the lute bone in her left shoulder were also swallowed up by the liquefied bones she controlled.

But the sharpness of the long knife was still unstoppable by the sternal shield that closed the gap, and the long knife pierced through Renee's sternal shield and stabbed the heart where it should be.

Renee and Wu Qi both made the same move when they killed each other comparable to "changing lives", that is, they used atavistic organ control to shift the position of the heart.

The long knife didn't pierce Renee's heart, and the energy lightsaber didn't incinerate Wu Qi's heart. As long as Wu Qi's mind moved, the blade part of the long knife that broke through the sternal shield could separate the blade and smash Renee's heart in an instant. The same is true for Renee, who deviates her wrist slightly, and the energy lightsaber will touch Wu Qi's heart, which is close at hand.

Wu Qi and Renee's faces were very close, and Wu Qi's gaze was slightly higher, colliding with Renee's gaze from top to bottom.

The thoughts revealed in the eyes of the two of them corresponded to the similar thoughts of the other party. The two seemed to know each other's meaning, but the movements of their hands remained the same.

People who also have atavistic power fight each other, and the heart is no longer the key to killing each other with one blow, even if the heart is destroyed, they still have secondary organs in their bodies that replace the heart's pumping function, and it is not difficult to regenerate a heart.

If Wu Qi and Renee really had the idea of killing the other, their knives or swords would only be aimed at each other's necks.

"What is this?" Renee asks who wins.

"Hmph." Wu Qi snorted coldly. With a force in his hand, he pulled the long knife out of Renee's chest.

Renee pressed the button on the grip as well, retracting the bursting energy lightsaber.

Both men lowered their weapons, looked at each other, and then stood two meters away.

"Let's stop fighting." Renee suggested.

"It depends on whether you deserve my trust." Wu Qi said lightly.

"You, you're despicable doing this." Renee said unhappily. Wu Qi's implication was that unless she could make him trust, there would be no guarantee of a truce. And at present, the only way to make Wu Qi trust her is to tell the true purpose of going to the occupied area.

Although it was determined that she would only tell the purpose if she lost, Renee never felt that the purpose of this trip had anything to hide. In the previous battle, she was more of a gamble, in order to vent her dissatisfaction with "Wu Qi pointed a knife at her as soon as she came up, and did what she was supposed to do", in order to shame Wu Qi.

Now that the fight is over, she can accept the result of a draw.

"It's okay to tell you what I'm here for, but you have to make sure there's a truce. And if I mention a truce, it doesn't mean that I don't want to fight you, understand? Renee said, her tone almost pointing a finger at Wu Qi's nose.

"Got it." Wu Qi said calmly. His tone has always been cold, so that people can't hear the emotional fluctuations hidden under the coldness.

So Renee told Wu Qi about the task of their team coming to the Fall Zone to investigate the Gray Queen and the "corpse virus". The identity of their troops is concealed, and there is no mention of belonging to the Northern Legion. She couldn't easily expose these important identity information, even if Wu Qi wanted to know, she wouldn't say it.

Wu Qi listened to the content about the Gray Queen, and Renee didn't say that he also guessed that the battlefield where the Gray Queen came was a battlefield at the human border, and the military uniform Renee was wearing showed that she was most likely a soldier at that border.

"I've said my purpose, not to deliberately enter the Fall Zone in order to hunt you down. It's you, who have fled into the occupied area for a few months, and you're still alive. Renee said as she observed Wu Qi's micro-expression.

At the end of the day, excluding the battle of the meeting, Wu Qi's ability to survive so long in the dangerous fallen zone is in itself a miracle worth exploring and understanding Renee. And Wu Qi is alone, acting alone in the wasteland, how are his teammates Renee also wants to know.

"If you have the strength, you can live." Wu Qi replied briefly and positively.

Renee wondered what this was the answer, then crouched down with a dagger and began to break down the flesh of the giant mudfish. Wu Qi watched from the side for a while, then walked to the other side of the giant mud fish and helped Renee break it down together.

The downpour gradually turned back to a drizzle, and the only sound in the quiet air was the sound of rain falling and daggers cutting through the flesh of a giant mudfish.

I can't tell if it's a tacit understanding or simply not wanting to talk, both of them are very quiet. When the dagger cuts through the giant mud fish, blood inevitably splashes on their hands, and this blood naturally submerges into their skin and is absorbed by the power of atavism.

Wu Qi finished cutting the fish he needed, and watched Renee take out a huge net bag and fill it with several times the amount of meat she had. Renee's cut of fish was obviously meant to be brought back to her teammates to eat, and Wu Qi was alone.

"Do you have a fire? If you don't mind, you can go back with me, we have a camp there. Renee said.

"Will I go back with you, and then be besieged and controlled by your army comrades, and finally escorted back to Xinjing?" Wu Qi had no feelings. The colors are authentic. The relationship between him and Renee is nothing more than a consensus not to attack each other's "enemies", and there is no such thing as returning to camp with the "enemies".

"I didn't mean that." Renee didn't retort loudly, she just said very softly.

Once again, the air returned to silence. The cutting of the giant mud fish has ended, and if they don't act together, the two will naturally part ways immediately.

Renee had a slight thought in her heart that she didn't want to end like this. Encountering Wu Qi again in the occupied area, this probability is as small as fate. If they were separated so simply, she might never see Wu Qi again.

If Wu Qi's teammates have all been buried in the wasteland of the fallen area, only Wu Qi will be left alone. So how long can Wu Qi live alone? Ten thousand steps back, Wu Qi would not die for the time being, but even if he killed one third-order plague species after another, no matter how strong he became through atavistic evolution, it would be impossible for him to cross the human border. If you can't see the future, you have to stay in the occupied area, live in chaos, and be swallowed up by the occupied area with the passage of time; In the end, I am afraid that the life will be no different from the plague species.

Bringing Wu Qi back to Xinjing was not Renee's task, but it was what Dr. Greg had always wanted. And out of complicated personal feelings, Renee didn't want Wu Qi's future to be like a plague life.

Wu Qi may not be a good person, at least when the two were once hostile, he defeated himself and did not kill him quickly, but spared his life; It was the same just now, and he didn't have any murderous intentions towards himself.

Renee could hear the voice of her heart's desire.

"I'm just inviting you, the choice is yours. Moreover, our camp is thousands of kilometers away from the human border, and the important tasks have not yet been solved. How is this possible. Renee said.

"You just said that your camp is thousands of kilometers away from the human border, so what is the location here?" Wu Qi keenly captured the crucial geolocation information in Renee's words, so he asked.

"Outside of the northwest border of the human territory, about 1,200 kilometers to the northwest," Renee told Wu Qi truthfully, and said in a sharp tone, "Don't you even know where you've gone?" ”

"Isn't it just you who have location technology?" Wu Qi snorted coldly. He quickly thought in his heart that if this was 1,200 kilometers northwest of the human territory, then the closest base to him would most likely be the Midnight Base.

Pushing it the other way around, Noah's base should be in the southwest direction!

It's just that it's not enough to determine the general direction. Wu Qi thought about it, and his eyes refocused on Renee's face.

Renee's army has location technology that may help him find the location of the Midnight base. It's just that the intelligence of the five human survivor bases must not be known to the Supreme Third Academy, and once the Supreme Third Academy is prepared, their chances of launching a surprise attack on the border pass in the future will be greatly reduced.

It is generally possible to make a profit by acting with Renee, and how much this double-edged sword can help him depends on how he uses it.

At this time, Renee turned around and walked, she turned her back to Wu Qi and said, "Since you have no chance to continue to act, let's go our own way." I hope you can live longer in the Occupied Zone. ”

"Wait." Wu Qi stepped out and was immediately in a position alongside Renee.

Renee saw Wu Qi chasing after her, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile. The beauty of her smile is better than that of countless women in this world, and even Wu Qi, who is an enemy, has always thought that Renee's beauty is worthy of his recognition.

"Have you changed your mind to come and borrow fire?" Renee laughed.

"Yes, just borrow a fire." Wu Qi replied.

......

After the rain subsided, the lead clouds in the sky dispersed layer by layer. The sky is clear again. Because of the rain, the dust in the air and the rich miracle virus were pressed into the soil by the rain, and every breath was refreshing.

Wu Qi followed Renee all the way until he saw a verdant mountain forest with no end in sight. This is the first time Wu Qi has seen the mountainous terrain after a day of operation on the wasteland; After entering the occupied area, Wu Qi's only impression of the mountains and forests was when he was on the guard mission of the No. 130 mining area.

However, Wu Qi was not surprised by this. The most likely habitat for this creature is swamps, which grow deep in mountains and forests, and where there are mountains and forests, there are streams and rivers.

There is a familiar sense of intimacy with the mountains and forests. Moreover, the mountains and forests in the human territory and the mountains and forests in the occupied areas have always been at a similar level compared to his strength. If he acted alone, Wu Qi was not afraid of the mountains and forests that might hide dangerous beasts.
