00282 Storm

"You're welcome, I've got hot water ready for you, and you can take a shower before you eat again."

"Huh?" What kind of bath do you take in the middle of the day? Lin Sen was a little strange, but Midnight quickly gave an explanation.

"According to my calculations, your next security action will be between 1 a.m. and 3 a.m. on January 9, 104 A.M., so you need to adjust your schedule in advance."

Oh...... I see.

Lin Sen stood up, cleaned up the dust, and then carefully put away the chair.

Just as he was about to go back to midnight, Lin Sen's eyes suddenly turned red.

As the alarm sounded, Lin Sen looked back, and the smile on his face disappeared.

What is that?!

When he saw that scene for the first time, Lin Sen was not only shocked, but also very incomprehensible.

Because it looks like a normal storm.

The wind was raging, accompanied by lightning and thunder, and everything in its path was destroyed.

But after a closer look, Lin Sen found something different about this storm, that is, faintly in the raging wind, Lin Sen could see the shadows of many people.

The shadows were not very numerous, but they were surprisingly large, the tallest of them was over fifty meters, and his long, slender, featureless figure moved with the storm like a giant in the storm.

"Brother Sen! Come on in! Seeing that Lin Sen was still stunned outside the cabin, Chen Lan hurriedly called him.

Lin Sen had no choice but to put aside his curiosity for the time being, and returned to the midnight interior with uneasiness.

"Sir, it looks like your lunch needs to be postponed, and according to my simulations, you're going to feel bad for the rest of the while."

Lin Sen laughed dryly, he put away all the external loads at midnight, turned on the power of the core to full load, and fully protected the defense.

At this time, from the outside, Midnight, which was originally like a cheetah, slowly shrank into shape, its fangs were gone, and the entire body was shrunk into a pitch-black streamlined metal, which was fixed by multiple anchors, and Midnight was ready for the coming storm.

Everything that could be done was done, and Lin Sen could only wait now.

After securing himself in the deployment seat with Chen Lan, Lin Sen began to try to calm down so that he could get through this torturous time.

Chen Lan was already nervously speechless, the sound in his ears was getting louder and louder, and the roar of the wind mixed with the numbing sound of metal grinding continued to torment his nerves.

The data in front of me kept flickering and jumping, and the value of the ATT function position on the periphery of midnight dropped sharply.

However, this is only caused by the edge of the storm passing through midnight.

Lin Sen's gaze was lowered, he still believed in Mannie, since she would let Midnight take Bai's place to assist Lin Sen in returning to Cerberus, there must be a reason.

Midnight really didn't disappoint Lin Sen.

Even at a critical juncture, it still came out with a joke that was not embarrassing or embarrassing.

"Ahh......h Sir, I notice that I seem to have forgotten to put green peppers, you don't have any special requirements for food, right? ”

Lin Sen was stunned? What's that? Aren't you preparing for a storm, and suddenly when you say this, the tension is gone.

Chen Lan's nervousness was also interrupted, he glanced at Lin Sen, and then let out a long breath in his heart, and at the same time he opened the mask.

"Brother Sen, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"

Lin Sen touched his stomach and frowned: "Well, but now it seems that I am too hungry, and I don't feel it anymore." ”

"emmmm......" Chen Lan glanced at the data that was showing good results, and suddenly smiled.

"Hehe, let Brother Sen laugh, I may be a little too nervous, in fact, there shouldn't be a big problem, after all, it is Miss Mannie's confident work." Chen Lan, who was comforting himself, said and stood up, he walked into the kitchen, and after a while, the fragrance spread.

"Brother Sen, let's eat first, anyway, the storm will be a while."

Lin Sen was still sitting there, watching this sudden change in disbelief.

What about the tense atmosphere that is said to be like a great enemy?

Isn't it too much to have nothing left now......

Lin Sen had a lot of strange thoughts in his head, but his behavior was very simple.

With a soft oh, Lin Sen obediently sat down at the table.

The meal was indeed as bad as Midnight said.

Although the tense atmosphere had moved away from them, the sound outside the cabin was continuous during the meal, and those very uncomfortable infrasound waves completely ignored the sound insulation layer and directly penetrated Lin Sen and Chen Lan's eardrums.

Accompanied by such a beautiful voice, Lin Sen ate a meal for more than an hour, and almost threw up several times.

After eating, Lin Sen suddenly admired himself very much, since he was so uncomfortable, why did he insist on eating it?

Could it be that this is the legendary stubbornness from a foodie?

Hehe......

After the meal, Lin Sen and Chen Lan experienced a "deep sea diving" experience that lasted for more than an hour.

The entire capsule seemed to be suffering from the water pressure like a submarine, and not only did the infrasound wave not stop, but all the objects attached to the capsule were creaking, as if they would collapse at any moment.

During this period, Chen Lan was almost completely collapsed, and he mentioned to Lin Sen several times whether he wanted to escape or not.

However, fortunately, Lin Sen was calm enough, and under his comfort throughout the whole process, Chen Lan gave up his intention to die.

……

The storm lasted for seven hours!

It started around 1 p.m. and continued until late at night that the sounds outside the house finally quieted down.

However, the relatively weak wind still whimpered outside the capsule, and in the face of this constant mental disturbance, Midnight decided to activate the Silence Device to create an extreme quiet environment.

Because its logical calculation result is that for the sake of Lin Sen and Chen Lan's health, they must take a good rest.

Lin Sen and the others were indeed exhausted.

Especially Lin Sen, it was the first time that he had found that being tortured by the sound for so long would be more difficult than him overloading his body.

Even after all the sounds disappeared, the auditory hallucinations in my mind still existed as if they were nothing.

Never mind...... Let's go to bed first.

Lin Sen didn't want to go on like this anymore, he had to rest well, after all, he still had to act in the early morning......

Fortunately, Lin Sen's sleep quality has always been good, and with the conjecture of the rest of the debate, Lin Sen closed his eyes......

……

After the night Cerberus had sent away the daytime sun, all that was left was the darkness in the electric light.

Clusters of various sizes roamed around the once glorious dome, and the fallen axial mast was surrounded by an eerie electric light, which perched on the axial mast like a conscious snake, and gradually transformed into pitch-black ink around it, and then gradually disappeared into the deeper darkness.

……

On the second night of his return to Cerberus, Chen Lan slept deeply after extreme exhaustion.

After his breathing gradually became even, Chen Lan returned to his home in his dream, the courtyard that was always shrouded in dim sunlight.

His father was busy preparing for his bar mitzvah.

Among them is a delicate dagger.

"This is the process that every Tridis man goes through! Especially now! When the dagger was handed over to Chen Lan, he realized how heavy this thing was, and even his initial curiosity and envy disappeared, leaving only fear and trembling.

The father felt the child's hesitation, and he took Chen Lan's hand and asked him to clench the dagger.

"Don't be afraid! Son, prove it to them! ”

Chen Lan knew that he couldn't hide, he had to do it.

……

Going out with a dagger, Chen Lan followed behind the others and walked towards the door.

Wearing a hood, Kui stood outside the door to greet this group of young people who were about to make a major life choice......

Is it life or death...... It's all about courage and luck......

……

However......

"Please! Don't talk about him! Give my child another chance! Please! ”

The mother cried so sadly, so sad that Chen Lan, who was standing not far away, almost couldn't hold the dagger.

Why? Why does it have to be so? Could it be that Tridis's people are doomed if they don't accept evolution?

From all the books Chen Lan had read, he had never seen a period of time when human beings were so fanatical about evolution as the current Tridis people, even at the cost of death.

Therefore, Chen Lan hesitated, he began to retreat, and began to think about escaping.

……

"Wait! I can save him! ”

Who?! Chen Lan's fear was interrupted, he was freed from his dazed and chaotic thoughts, and he saw a stranger, a person who dared to stand up for the first time to deny this meaningless evolution.

Chen Lan seemed to see hope, and he even wanted to stand up like him and say that I could save him.

But he didn't have that courage and everything he had received since he was a child told him that it was not right.

Evolution is the future of Tridis......

There is no evolution......

Tridis is doomed......

……

Countless thoughts lingered in his mind, a sweet dream gradually turned into a cage of memories, and Chen Lan, who was tormented by nightmares, suddenly found that the people around him were gone.

His world was empty, there was no sound, no time......

In the end he saw nothing, heard nothing...... It began to struggle as if drowning in water.

……

Suddenly......

"Chen Lan!"

A familiar voice broke into the hollow world.

In a daze, Chen Lan heard a small, very small voice.

But he couldn't tell where the voice came from or whose it was, and he was so deeply disgusted by the disturbance that he wanted to continue sleeping instead of waking up.

But the voice came again.

"Wake up! Chen Lan! ”

This time it wasn't just the sound, Chen Lan felt a slap on the face, and this hand didn't leave, it continued to press down until Chen Lan felt pain before suddenly leaving again.
