At dawn, Cliffs was asked to make a video call with Ms. Li's online friends to prove that she hadn't killed him as her friends had imagined. Lifus also wanted to learn something through them, so he didn't refuse.

At 5:22 in the morning, there was only an old man, a young woman and a man in black with a somewhat sloppy image who participated in the group video.

"How? Now that the big living people are in front of you, you should believe that I didn't lie to you, right? Li Xinran deliberately changed into a water-green dress, but obviously the skirt was a little small and a little old, which wrapped her body a little unnaturally. But she still held her head proudly high, even though she was almost out of breath from the girdle.

"Wow! Sure enough, when I opened my eyes, I was more handsome, girl, should I think about the transfer I told you before......" The beautiful young woman with the screen name "Female Secretary of the Supernatural Civil Science Investigation Bureau" made a few provocative movements on the camera, and the charm of a mature woman made her show it vividly in a few seconds.

"Get out." Li Xinran answered very concisely, her face was a little red, usually everyone chatted on a large scale, but today in front of Li Fusi was a little unable to let go. In Livers's arms, to be exact.

"Do you want to show affection like this? Don't you know if men and women give or receive kisses? As far as I know, you've only known each other for less than ten hours, right? Could it be that something indescribable happened in the meantime? The young woman said this with a sour taste of jealousy, but a smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.

"You don't have to, do you? She's just a kid. Li Fusi said with a smile, and then tugged at Li Xinran's ponytail.

"How old are you?" The young woman's tone was a bit aggressive.

"I'm nineteen." Lifus said a little dazed.

The young woman in the video holds her forehead and makes an antics that she is about to faint, "Oh my God, you are nineteen, and then you treat a fifteen-year-old girl as a child, is that right?" ”

Perhaps it was the long-term malnutrition that contributed to Li Xinran's body being too petite, giving Lifus the illusion that she was still a child, and the alliance would require the Chosen to treat the civilians in the safe zone like family, of course, the Chosen have no family, and they have no experience in how to treat their families, and Lifus's method of dealing with children is to hug them, kiss them, and play with them, and he feels that there is nothing wrong with them.

However, despite the short contact time, Lifus still liked this well-behaved and stubborn, intelligent and independent, kind and brave and eccentric girl in his heart, of course, the kind of child like.

After the young woman said this, Li Fusi suddenly felt that his behavior was indeed a little inappropriate, and he quickly put Li Xinran on the chair, and wanted to explain something at a loss: "That...... You know...... In a word...... All right. ”

Lifus's words were difficult to understand and vague, but the young woman seemed to catch useful information from his staccato words, and used them to retrace the truth that she had been guessing about, and she burst out laughing.

Li Xinran raised her fist and waved at her, and then said demonstratively: "I'm willing, do you care?" ”

"Alright," the old man finally began to speak, he was the "Purple Light Pavilion Oil Seller" himself, "Mr. Lifuss," apparently he had learned Lifus's name from Li Xinran, "aren't you going to explain to us what happened in the safe zone?" The honorific title "you" is used here not only to draw a clear line, but also to show the right amount of hostility, which is very suitable for stirring up disputes.

"I only found out about what happened in the security zone last night after reading the post on the forum, and I'm still shocked, I believe that the other Chosen ones are also kept in the dark like me, our external operations team is generally only responsible for the establishment of the security zone, and after the establishment of the security zone, it will be handed over to the relevant personnel of the logistics department to take over, and we don't know what happened after that, they should have started planning a big plan very early, but we are not in this plan." Now it seems that the power grids on the walls are clearly to prevent civilians from escaping, and Lifus once naively thought that it was to protect against wild beasts, but how can there be any wild beasts in this world?

"You've picked yourself clean." The man in black said with a sneer. He is the "Achilles on his heels", known for his knack for cynicism and vitriol. "For such a long time, so many people have gone missing, I don't believe you didn't notice it before." The man in black always twitched the corners of his mouth when he spoke, and there was a contemptuous sneer on his face, which made people very uncomfortable to watch.

"I also had doubts about the closed management of the security zone before, but I think it may just be out of security considerations, and I didn't think too much about it, to be honest, the Chosen One, including me, are too obsessed and yearning for the beautiful blueprint for the future earth society given by the Alliance, we are all brainwashed, and our loyalty to the Alliance has made us lose the ability to distinguish between the false and the true." Lifus didn't have to explain so much to them, and a large part of the reason why he was doing it now was because he didn't want them to think that Lin Xinran was not human.

"I didn't find out at the earliest, because they were too secretive, and now they find out, it's all because they're too lazy to be secretive." This small forum seemed to be a microcosm of the world, and Lifus's tone began to become serious, "But the most terrible thing is not how much blood they have on their hands and how many people they have killed, but after all this, we still don't know what their plans and conspiracy are, the most terrible thing is that this unknown conspiracy plan seems to be about to succeed, and the most terrible thing is that their imminent conspiracy plan can make them arrogant to the point of unscrupulous public conduct without concealment, so the plan itself, is the most terrifying. ”

"Then, you should have more clues about this plan than ordinary people, after all, you were once in a high position." The young woman felt that the atmosphere of the conversation was a little too solemn, and she wasted no time in interjecting a sentence that would not seem offensive when it came out of her mouth.

Lifus smiled bitterly: "I'm just the leader of a combat team, and I'm still far away from the core power level, but over the years of the mission, I can still find a lot of clues, but as I said before, we were so loyal to the alliance at that time that we turned a blind eye to some suspicious points, and even made up our own reasons to make everything reasonable." The power grid may have been installed on the fence to protect against wild beasts, the closed management was of course to make the safe zone safer, and in the original Chosen Emergency Activation Program, only the identified male embryos may have been kept to make the agent group stronger and more distracted, but it now seems that this may have been an important part of Achilles' long-planned Homo sapiens eradication plan. ”

"My guess is that Achilles is likely to be the mastermind of this conspiracy, and that it started the Chosen Project only because it lacked manpower, and that it did not breed female Chosen One because it didn't want humans to reproduce anymore, and even if it lacked manpower, it could have cultivated another batch of Chosen One, and this asexual reproduction Chosen Project seemed to be completely tailor-made for it."

"And the second step is to turn Homo sapiens into a machine. It has done experiments on our chosen one, transplanting processors and hard drives, etc., but unfortunately, we have our own independent thinking, independent personality, it can't completely control us, so it began to experiment with a large number of civilians in the safe zone, trying to make humans into its puppets, maybe implanting chips in brain neurons, using pulsed electrons to simulate nerve fiber conduction, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the human brain, but its ambition may be far more than that, maybe to create an indestructible mechanical puppet to be satisfied. Livers felt a chill when he thought back to the ambush he had encountered, and it might have been a trap to wait for.

"Well, I choose to believe you, young man." The old man said to the screen, "Whether what you say is true or not, from your standpoint, you have no need to deceive us. He paused, then continued, "If things turn out the way you envision, what else can we do?" ”

"Nothing can be done." Lifus shrugged, "Although I don't want to admit it, but the truth is that Achilles controls the transportation and network, weapons and energy, it has spaceships, air supremacy, satellites, discourse, armies, and now maybe even a large number of human puppets who are not afraid of death, we have no chance of winning." ”

"You're so cool and disappointing, so we don't have a chance? Can you just sit back and wait or be transformed into the walking dead? The young woman's expression was very calm, and her pretty face could be said to have no waves.

"Never underestimating the enemy is a virtue that every soldier should have." Lifus said.

"It seems that there is no need to continue the discussion, so let's stop here. I'll gather again in the evening when everyone is there, and see if I can brainstorm and come up with a solution. The old man was the first to turn off the video, and then the glamorous young woman and the man in black also withdrew.

"I'm sorry, my friends may be a bit straight talking, but they're actually very nice people and have taught me a lot of things." Li Xinran observed that Li Fusi was frowning, his expression was very bitter, and felt that he might be very unhappy.

"I know, it doesn't matter. Alright, let's pack up and go out and get some water and food. Lifus stood up and said.

"Wait a minute, shouldn't we discuss how to deal with Achilles' plot and how to help humanity get through this?" Li Xinran asked in surprise.

"Joke, I'm not Superman, how do I deal with it? People will always do as much as they have the ability, I am now a remnant of the defeated army who escaped from the cage of being raised, even the weapon has been lost, and it is very likely that he will not live for a few days, and the current state is probably a return to the light, maybe the next second will be choked. Now that there are no armed forces on Earth that can confront the Alliance, perhaps we can only pin our hopes on smog and kelp. Lifus said in a self-deprecating tone.

"Human beings have come to this day completely to blame, not worthy of sympathy at all, it is not a good thing that this selfish and greedy creature has become extinct, we should save some energy and find a way to fill our stomachs first."
