Chapter 65: Returning Home
On a cool night, running wild under the stars at the speed of a cheetah is an extraordinary feeling.
Small canals, large pits, dirt slopes, dwellings, and forest curtains can easily cross them. This feeling of running freely makes him feel extremely comfortable.
Suddenly, a man with a flashlight came out of the woods in front of him, and he ran past him like a lightning speed, bringing with him a current of air that blew him to the ground.
"Ahh Ghost! ”
The exclamation from behind him made Lin Mu smile slightly, and he did not stop at all, and continued to run forward in the night.
A sense of confidence came over him, thanks to the strength and speed of his evolution.
"Hoo ......"
A large number of lights loomed ahead, and he stopped two kilometers away from the county seat. After taking a few deep breaths, the pressure in his lungs gradually subsided, and he wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead with his hands.
He raised his hands, clenched his fists and released them, feeling the power in his body, and sighed slightly.
"That's not enough!"
The second-level enhancer is considered a strong one in a place like the Sunset Hammer, but compared to the people of Silver City and Iron Sword, he is still just a weak ant.
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, judging from the orange combat uniform on Christine's body, her identity as a fourth-level enhancer is only a low-level member of the iron sword.
Level 5, Level 6, Level 7, Level 8...... He couldn't imagine how strong people who had evolved to that level were, especially after their power was amplified by power armor.
"I need to get stronger!" Whispering to himself, he was in a daze for a moment, took out the motorcycle from the storage space, rode it onto the road, and drove quickly in the direction of the county seat.
There are two ways to become stronger, or evolve, and so far he knows of two ways. One is that the GTS agent in the body will allow the body to evolve slowly and autonomously, and the speed of self-help evolution is completely different depending on the individual's constitution.
It took Carl Sr. nearly eight years to evolve from a first-level enhancer to a second-level enhancer. And after Lin Mu was injected with GTS potion for the first time, he directly became a second-level enhancer.
Although he didn't know exactly how the level of the enhancer was defined, he could clearly feel that his body was almost twice as strong as it was at the beginning.
The pace of this autonomous evolution is impressive, but it's still not fast enough! According to the information revealed by Old Karl, whether it is Iron Sword Silver City, it has the means to make the enhancer speed up the evolution.
As for what exactly the means were, only the members of the two forces know.
**
Jintai County, which is subordinate to Yangcheng, has a permanent population of less than 100,000, which is a relatively small county-level city. Compared with the bustling city of Yangcheng at night, it seems a little lonely here.
It took a long time to see a passing car renting a car, and there were hardly any pedestrians on either side of the street.
Lin Mu rode a motorcycle, turned left and right, and finally entered an alley, stopping at the gate of a small courtyard, which is rarely seen in big cities.
Flipping open a stone under the big iron door, he smiled. Just like I remember when I was a child, the spare key is still lying here.
Opening the iron door, he had just pushed the motorcycle in, and the lights were turned on in the house opposite the gate, and a middle-aged woman in pajamas pushed the door out with a flashlight.
There are faint crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, his hair is tied behind his head, and his face is somewhat similar to He Qi, it is Lin Mu's aunt Li Li.
She took a flashlight and saw the person clearly, her face suddenly showed a little annoyance, and she reprimanded in a low voice: "Lin Mu! Not for you to come back! Look what time it is! Your uncle and I have been waiting for you and haven't slept all the time! ”
Parking his motorcycle next to his uncle He Wen's motorcycle, Lin Mu hurriedly went up the steps, pushed his aunt Li Li into the house, and said in a low voice: "There are some things that the company hasn't dealt with today, so I'll come over as soon as I finish dealing with it!" ”
When he entered the house, there were flower pots and some miscellaneous items in the hallway, and he looked sideways to the room that was used as the living room, and his uncle He Wen was sitting on the sofa watching TV, with a cigarette in his mouth.
Suddenly, a familiar feeling arose, and the memories that had been buried in the depths of my mind gradually became clearer.
Eight years, I have lived in this house for eight years, the furnishings of the room, the uncle who smokes, the aunt who chatters, everything here is the same as before.
The only difference is...... Uncle He Wen.
"Lin Mu, even if the company has good benefits, it can't squeeze you like this! Didn't you say you've had the last three days off? Why are you still called to do things? ”
Uncle He Wen turned his head, Si Siwenwen's face didn't have too many expressions, as if yesterday's events hadn't happened at all, chatting with a very normal attitude.
Lin Mu carefully observed for a moment and confirmed that he was not in disguise, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Immediately, he pushed the tip of his nose with his hand and said with a smile: "Isn't this a bit urgent?" Now that it's been dealt with, there won't be anything else going on until the business trip! I've been at home for the past few days! ”
This time I came back from the wasteland world, the main armored reconnaissance vehicle has been obtained, and the rest are some things that can be bought anywhere, but I don't have to stay in Yang City.
"Well, it's a little bit more now! All go to bed! Don't smoke either! I know it every day! Sooner or later, you'll have to die! ”
Compared with her honest uncle He Wen, Aunt Li Li has a stronger personality. Without saying anything, she snatched away her uncle He Wen's cigarette, pulled him up and walked out, and said before going out: "The bedding is all laid for you!" Forest curtain! Hurry up and turn off the lights and go to bed! ”
"Bang!"
There was a sound of the door closing next door, and Lin Mu glanced at the familiar living room, turned off the light and walked to the room on the left.
There are many rooms in the triple courtyard of my aunt's house, but there are only two that can be used as bedrooms, and he stopped at the door of He Qi's room, with a hint of hesitation on his face.
Before he left this home to go to school, He Qi was still young, and it was nothing for two people to sleep in one room, but now He Qi has become a big girl, and it is really inappropriate for two people to sleep in one room.
He made a decision in his heart, and just as he turned around and was about to go to sleep in the living room, the door behind him was suddenly opened.
He Qi was wearing a pink nightdress, grabbed his clothes after trotting over in a few steps, and said in a low voice: "Come in and sleep quickly!" Otherwise, my mom will have to talk about it again! ”
"Yes!"
In desperation, he had no choice but to follow He Qi into the bedroom.
Compared to the bedroom in my rental house, the bedroom in front of me is very spacious, with two single beds on either side of the wall and a large writing desk between the two headboards.
As soon as he entered the house, Lin Mu smelled a faint fragrance, which smelled like those things that girls like to use.
"Hurry up and go to bed! I've got to get up early tomorrow to go to school! ”
He Qi yawned, sorted out the books on the desk, turned around and lay down on his bed, and within a moment, he let out a slight snoring sound.
"It looks like this girl is really tired!"
Whispering to himself, he took off his coat and went to bed, smelling the familiar smell, a long-lost feeling came to his heart, sleepiness suddenly hit, before falling asleep, he seemed to hear He Qi whispering.
"Finally...... Knowing it's back......"
