Chapter 291 Troubles
Lin Ci demonstrated once, then put the gun and backpack at the young man's feet, and said, "Don't let your kindness disappear, do your best to protect it, and then live." ”
He patted the young man's shoulder, and then caught up with Li Feng.
Watching the two walk away, Lin Feng suddenly let go of his throat and shouted, "Uncle, what's your name?" ”
Lin Ci just waved his hand and didn't answer.
It had been three days since he returned to Xudu, and Lin Ci didn't even have time to rest, so he followed Li Feng directly to the last conference hall. As soon as he entered the door, his eyes fell on him and Li Feng. In these sights, several of them are undisguised hostility. Lin Xi looked at one of the most hostile glances, but it was the mysterious species that razed the Dragon City Power Station, Mark.
In the face of his nameless hostility, Lin Ci did not show weakness and let go of his murderous aura. Immediately, the temperature in the hall seemed to have dropped a lot, and everyone felt a chill down their backs, as if a fierce beast was eyeing them from behind.
Mark was even more stimulated by Lin Xi's murderous aura to tears in the corners of his eyes, he immediately let out a low roar, and the lights in the hall suddenly flickered, and there were electric rays jumping on him.
"That's enough." A voice rang out, it was Su Jinwei.
He looked at the crowd and said, "I asked you to come here to solve the problem, not to let you fight." If you have to solve some problems with your fists, you will be able to do it later. ”
Since Su Jinwei said so, of course the others would not have any more opinions, and Li Feng led Lin Ci to the side. There was an extra chair next to Su Jinwei, which was naturally set up for Lin Xi. Lin Ci was not polite, and sat down with a golden sword.
"This operation, unfortunately, we are only half successful." Su Jinwei glanced at Lin Ci and said, "It's really surprising that the xenomorphs will suddenly attack Dragon City. As a result, the Kunlun witch corpse was snatched by the other party, which is indeed a failure for us. ”
Li Feng raised his hand and said in a low voice: "This time I was negligent, and I am willing to take all the responsibility." ”
He said frankly: "If I hadn't gone to kill Ma Ling and wasted some time because of this, Lu Han wouldn't have bumped into the female leader, and he could have arrived at the airport before the xenomorph attack." So the responsibility for the failure of this operation lies with me. ”
Su Jinwei waved his hand and said, "It's not a complete failure, at least, we still have the jade disc in our hands." ”
Mark on the left side of the long table sneered: "Li Feng, you don't have to rush to carry the black cauldron. Everyone knows that if this operation hadn't been a temporary addition, it wouldn't have messed up. ”
Lin Ci raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "What do you mean?" ”
"I mean, this operation didn't have Lin Xi's participation in you, and you wanted to add it, which made the original plan a little different from the original plan in terms of personnel arrangement." Mark pointed the finger at Lin Ci and said, "If you don't participate, then the person who took away the jade disc will be Miffy." If it was Miffy, then when Lu Han met the female leader, she would definitely help. So I ask you, Lin Ci, where were you when Lu Han was entangled by the female commander? ”
Lin Ci said: "At that time, if I was not mistaken, I should have fought with Luo Jinpeng." ”
"Oh, I know, Luo Jinpeng is still dead at your hands. But if you hadn't deliberately diverted the xenomorphs and completely left our retreat plan behind, so that you didn't take care of each other with Lu Han, you wouldn't have bumped into Luo Jinpeng, and Lu Han wouldn't have lost the witch corpse. ”
"So you want me to say that the reason why this operation is only half successful is entirely because of you!" Mark stood up and pointed at Lin Xi.
"It's because of your own ideas, because you put your plans behind, that you have created this situation!"
Suna on the right suddenly explained: "Although Lin Xi didn't act according to the plan, he broke the plan of the xenomorph. Otherwise, if Luo Jinpeng leads other aliens to attack the airport together, I am afraid that Gangwu will not be able to guard the moment when we arrive at the airport. ”
Gangwu nodded and said, "That's right, there were too many xenomorphs at that time. The scope of the line of defense is actually very short. ”
Mark pouted, disapproving.
"How strong can xenos be, are you a waste?"
Gang Wu's face changed immediately, and Lu Han stood up directly, sneering: "You mean, because of my incompetence, I let the female commander snatch things?" ”
Mark curled his lips up and smiled, "In a way, it's not wrong for you to say that. ”
"I see." In the depths of Lu Han's pupils, a red light like a flame lit up: "Then if you have a chance, I would like to learn from your superior combat power that can easily kill the General Staff Officer." ”
Mark exclaimed, "Always with you." ”
"That's enough." Wickley, who was at the top of the left seat, raised his hand, gestured, motioned for Mark to sit down, and then looked at Su Jinwei and said, "Doctor, who is responsible now is up to the matter." The most important thing now is how do we get the witch corpse back. ”
Su Jinwei sighed: "The witch corpse fell into Shi Longfei's hands, and if you want to take it by force, I'm afraid it's not so easy." That's why I've called you together, and I want to hear what you think. ”
Wakeley laughed and said, "I have an idea. ”
"You say."
Wickley said: "The jade disc and the witch corpse must be together to find the clues to the Kunlun Jade Ruins. I don't know, I'm afraid Shi Longfei doesn't know. If that's the case, can the doctor consider using the jade disc as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Shi Longfei. Perhaps, through some degree of cooperation, the Kunlun Jade Ruins can be found. ”
As soon as his words fell, Su Jinwei still made a statement, and Lin Ci had already stood up suddenly, and shouted categorically: "No, let's not say that xenos are the great enemies of mankind, and there is no possibility of negotiation with the enemy at all, let alone cooperation." Take 10,000 steps back, even if the other party is not a different species, if you cooperate with it. When the time comes, if you find the Kunlun Jade Ruins, the other party will definitely intervene. So let me ask you, how to deal with Shi Longfei? Deal with a level of top-level predator, he will easily kill us all! ”
Wickley smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, Lin Ci." That's right, Shi Longfei is a terrible young man. But honestly, when it comes to cooperation, he's a better ally. That's right, if he finds the Kunlun Jade Ruins at that time, he will definitely intervene. But I don't think we're at a complete disadvantage. In fact, the Doctor who knows how to use the witch corpse and the jade disc has the upper hand in the information. We can take advantage of this advantage and enter the Jade Ruins one step earlier than Shi Longfei. ”
"That's not going to work, no matter what, I'm against working with xenos!" Lin Ci said loudly.
The hall fell silent, Wickley always had a faint smile on his face, Mark was an undisguised sneer, and as for the black riders behind Mark, except for the blind black Dusa, they all showed disdain. Lin Ci looked at Li Feng and hoped that he would stand up and support him. But Li Feng unexpectedly just pushed his glasses and chose to be silent. Lu Han and the others below, although they did not explicitly agree, they also did not immediately express their opposition, and their attitudes were ambiguous.
Lin Ci shook his head and said, "What's wrong with you?" Is there something like this that needs to be considered? That's xeno! It is the great enemy of mankind! Are you really considering the possibility of working with them? ”
Behind him, Su Jinwei's soft sigh rang out.
"Lin Ci, I know how you feel. But Wykeley's proposal may really be worth considering. If we don't retrieve the witch corpse, even if we have the jade disc in our hands, we won't be able to find the jade ruins, let alone enter them. Sometimes, even if you are an enemy, when the situation calls for it, you have to cooperate ......"
"I know that sometimes we have to learn to compromise for the sake of certain interests. But I don't think that's the same as throwing away principles. Xenogene! Shi Longfei! I definitely don't think that they are someone to work with! ”
Clenched his fist and hammered hard, and Lin Ci smashed his fist on the table. Smashing the corner of the long table to the ground, he took a deep look at Su Jinwei and walked towards the door.
Walked out of the hall, came to the outside of the building, sat on the steps, and faced the distant winter sun.
The sun shone warmly on Lin Ci's body, but it couldn't dispel the deep tiredness and haze in his heart. He looks back on the past, and has been working hard to fight against xenos since he joined. Even if he was wanted later, even for Han Mengdie, he participated in the attack on Dragon City. But he has never changed, let alone wavered, in his stance on xenomorphs.
But now, the man he was closest to, his father, might be working with the xenos because of the witch corpse. Lin Ci suddenly felt deeply tired, and even didn't know where to go.
Leave? But Han Mengdie is still in a coma, how can he just leave. And he didn't feel at ease when he left Su Jinwei among these black horses. Even though Su Jinwei's decision was contrary to his wishes, no matter what, it was his father who had raised him for more than ten years.
But if you stay, what he's been holding on to will be shattered. If it was only to attack Dragon City, he could still convince himself that it was for Han Mengdie. What if you work with Xenomorphs? Where else does he stand, to face those familiar faces?
Lin Ci didn't know, but he couldn't think of any solution.
Suddenly being hugged from behind, Lin Ci raised his head, Aoi tilted his head and looked at him and said, "Brother, when did you come back." ”
The calmness in Aoi's eyes eased Lin Ci's irritable mood a little, he smiled bitterly, reached out and rubbed the girl's hair and said, "Just came back, how are you doing these days?" ”
"Boring." Aoi sat down beside him and took his arm.
"Hello, no worries."
"Who said that! There's only food here every day, but I just want to eat cake. ”
She spread her hands, and with a helpless look, Lin Ci couldn't help laughing.
Footsteps sounded, and Lin Ci looked back and saw that it was Li Man. The girl hurriedly ran over and stood next to Lin Ci panting. It wasn't until a long time later that she straightened up and said, "Lin Xi, Miss Dusk Xue has finished concocting, do you want to take a look?" ”
"Twilight, they're ready?" Lin Xi stood up suddenly.
Riemann nodded and said, "I just received a notice from the laboratory that they will be able to come out in ten minutes, so I hurriedly came to you, I think, you should go to meet them." ”
"Of course." Lin Ci pulled Kwai up and said, "Let's go, let's see your little sister Jiu." ”
Aoi immediately let out a cheer, it seems that she has been suffocated these days.
When he came to the preparation room of the laboratory, the door was still closed, but he didn't let Lin Xi wait long before the door opened. Then there was a faint human voice from inside, and after a while, footsteps began to sound, and then someone came out of the door, but it was Chen Hu.
He had much longer hair and a beard on his chin than when they first met. But his spirit was very good, and his physique seemed to be two points taller, and a faint sense of oppression emanated from him, making the staff around him who were preparing to collect data a little afraid to approach.
As soon as Chen Hu came out, he saw Lin Ci, and immediately raised his mechanical arm and waved his hand. He was about to step forward, but asked Li Man to stop him, and Li Man shouted: "Wait first, Mr. Chen Hu, let them scan your physical condition so that they can collect data." ”
"Okay, please hurry. I'm hungry right now. Chen Hu touched his stomach, and sure enough, there was a grunting sound. In the concoction machine, he relied on nutrient solution to maintain his life function, and he didn't have anything in his stomach, and now he felt that the whole person was empty.
"The big man is right, I'm so hungry right now, I feel like I can eat even a cow."
Behind Chen Hu, Xiao Jiu came out. The girl in the biochemical suit looked a little taller, which made her long legs even more obvious.
However, Xiao Jiu's feeling was also different from before, and the whole person was a little smarter, like an unpredictable fog. You can see it, but you can't touch it.
Lin Ci waved at her, and Aoi ran over, waiting until the staff had finished scanning Xiao Jiu's physical condition before Aoi hugged her.
"Why are you all stuck in the doorway?"
The third one who came out was Alice, whose long hair was loose and had grown to the point that it was almost close to her heels. The whole person exuded a faint sharpness, especially her eyes, which became brighter and sharper than before.
At first glance, Lin Ci seemed to see a mountain eagle. Seeing Alice, Ellitt, who had been brought by the staff early in the morning, had already run up.
At this moment, a faint chill poured out of the door, and Chen Hu, who had taken off his biochemical suit, hugged his hands exaggeratedly.
Then Lin Xi saw Twilight Snow, who had not seen her for many days, and Twilight Snow seemed to have no change in her body shape, but she was even more cold and beautiful.
"Why don't you recognize me?" Twilight blinked with a playful expression as she stood there, looking at Riemann generously.
After Li Man scanned it, he looked at the readings and suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my God, Miss Dusk Xue's strength has reached the fifth order!" ”
The reason why xenos can't increase their combat power level is because they don't hunt, after all, not just any xenos will eat xenos.
The cell activity of xenogeneous cells has been maintained in a stable state. They are different from Taiyi warriors, especially a generation of Taiyi warriors. A generation of Taiyi warriors who are directly implanted into xenogeneic organs, through battles, the xenogeneous native organs will continuously produce new cells, so that the cell activity will continue to rise. When the activity value reaches the standard, they can increase even if they do not hunt.
