Chapter Ninety-Six: The Truth Conveyed
The next day, Xia Long left his apartment and walked on the streets of the city.
Ji Ya went back to the residence once last night, his face was very ugly, it seems that compared to before, Ji Ya was very injured this time.
But despite this, it didn't take long to rest, and Ji Ya left with the induction early in the morning, and now he is probably fighting desperately again.
"The evolutionary instrument is almost fifty percent restored, and it may take about a month to fully recover......"
Xia Long stood on the side of the road, silently feeling the breath of the evolutionary instrument.
This is still with the help of Nexus, otherwise it will only be slower, after all, the impact of his reluctance to use the evolutionary instrument a few times is not small.
"A month?"
After recovering, he can participate in the battle to assist Himiya, but judging from the current situation, there is not much time left for him.
Xia Long frowned slightly.
If you don't hurry up, Ji Yajun may really die, and his hope, the hope of this world, may also be ruined because of this.
"Mr. Himiya......" Xia Long's gaze swept over the peaceful people, and finally looked in the direction of the fortress of freedom.
If you don't leave the Night Raid team, you can also help Himiya with excellent technological equipment, but there seems to be no good way to do it now except to risk using telekinesis.
"Didi!" Cars passed by Xia Long, pedestrians hurried by, and all kinds of shops were bustling.
The city was not affected much, and it was not at all thought of the battle that might be going on on a corner.
For unknown reasons, Xenobiotic has not appeared in the crowded urban area so far, but according to Genrai's recent investigation, the location of the Xenobiotic has become closer and closer to the urban area.
"I just received a message," a news item was inserted on the large screen in the plaza at this time, "The power transmission equipment in Iiyama Renfeng has failed, and there is a power outage in some areas of the city center, and now the ......area will be locked down to ensure everyone's safety."
"Iiyama?" Xia Long muttered, and the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
"Hey, Gumen, I'm Genlai, did you hear the news just now?" Genlai's rapid gasp came, "Come here, I have a feeling, this time is not a simple blockade, it must be related to the truth!" ”
"Mr. Nerai......"
"Don't say anything, I'll go over first," Nelai hurriedly ran into the car and hung up, "Meet then!" ”
"I see." Xia Long felt the slightly fluctuating aura of the Evolutionary Instrument, and flagged down a taxi to rush to the location reported in the news.
In the evening, after entering the hot spring street of a forest park in Iiyama, Xia Long tried to contact Nerai but found that his mobile phone had no signal at all.
"Is the entire area blocked?" Xia Long put down his phone and muttered to look around.
Although it is low season, there are quite a few tourists.
"If there is a xenobiotic beast, it should be arranged to evacuate and ......"
Frowning and wondering for a while, Xia Long's footsteps suddenly stopped when he passed in front of a hotel.
I don't know if it's an illusion, he vaguely sensed Ji Ya's breath, and it was a little disordered.
"Are you already here?"
Looking at the sign in front of him called "Yamatoya", Xia Long stepped into the hostel.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, as soon as he stepped in, the electric light suddenly went out in an instant, and the hotel was dim.
"Anyone?" Xia Long stopped.
"If you want to stay overnight, there happens to be a room ......" A middle-aged man in a kimono walked out with a candlestick and saw Xia Ryu and Kiki.
"No thanks." After seeing the middle-aged man who seemed to be the boss, Xia Long asked, "May I ask if there is a person named Ji Yajun who lives here?" ”
"Himiya Jung? Sorry, there is no such person," the boss shook his head.
No?
Xia Long continued: "It's a young man who is a little dark, wearing a black leather coat......"
"Well, do you know Himiya Jun?" As she spoke, a young woman walked out of the hallway.
"Well," Xia Long nodded as he looked at the woman with a beautiful temperament in the candlelight, as if she was a TV star, "I'm his friend." ”
The woman glanced back at the leader and said, "He's here." ”
followed the woman into the inner room, and through the candlelight, Xia Long saw Ji Yazhun lying in the room at a glance, and the two men who seemed to be the woman's companions were taking care of them.
"Mr. Himiya!" Xia Long squatted down next to Ji Ya and found that his condition was a little bad, and his body seemed to be overdrawn.
"We found him in the mountains, so we brought him here, and he has been in a coma for half a day."
The man in the floral shirt explained as he drank a beer.
"I've tried the phone and my phone, but I can't get out of the call, and I can't contact the ambulance."
Xia Long shook his head secretly, it was useless to send Ji Yazhun's situation to the hospital.
"You're a friend of Himeya's Jun?" The man carried the beer can, looked at Himiya and continued, "You must know him well, right? ”
"Sort of." Xia Long nodded slightly.
I don't know much about it, but Ji Ya's personality and even the memories of the past, he knows better, when he first touched the sarcophagus, that mysterious power instilled a lot of things.
"Seriously, it's the first time I've seen someone else's photo and I'm shocked," the man lamented, "It was the last photo he took, and it made me understand that photos can express the truth so powerfully, and it feels like ...... found a purpose in life"
Xia Long noticed the digital camera and some other equipment placed on the side, and asked, "Are you also a reporter?" ”
"No, I just...... Take Runping to help Qixia take a photo," the man drank beer and said a little embarrassed, "This is my current job, but I also want to be like Ji Yajun......"
"The truth?" Xia Long's eyes swept around the team of three people who were confused, and didn't say anything.
TLT seems to underestimate people's thirst for truth.
"It's too hot, isn't it?" The man finished his beer in one gulp, sweated and got up and walked to the balcony, "There is no wind at all." ”
Xia Long looked down, and there was a strange aura faintly coming from the mountain in the distance.
"Here we are." Muttering, Xia Long's gaze fell on the transformer that was placed next to Ji Ya and began to pulsate and flicker.
"What's coming?" The woman who was taking care of Himiya turned around suspiciously and looked outside, "There seems to be some sound." ”
At this moment, a huge halo of light appeared on the top of the mountain, and the ensuing cry became clearer and clearer.
"What's that?" The man in the shirt was stunned, "Ji Ya is here to shoot that, right?" ”
Glancing at the unconscious Ji Ya, the man immediately lifted his backpack and rushed out.
"Mr. Paulo!"
The woman and another companion also followed in surprise, and suddenly only Xia Long and Ji Yazhun were left in the room.
"Bang!" The light of the short sword transformer was still pulsating, and Xia Long picked it up and looked at it before putting it back to Ji Ya.
"Your body is already terrible, it's like you're burning your own life."
With a light sigh, Xia Long left the inn and ran towards the mountain.
The aura of the xenomorph beast had become clearer and clearer, and he could feel a different power than before.
"Over there."
Soon after the journey, Xia Long soon saw a four-legged monster heading in the direction of Hot Spring Street.
The shape is strange, with an extra-long tubular tongue sticking out of the mouth with another mouthpart at the top, waving like a giant python, and the body part is also covered with thick armor.
"Run!"
"Mr. Paulo, it's too late if you don't leave!"
An anxious shout came, Xia Long looked down, and saw that those people were just on the way forward of the xenomorphic beast, and the distance was getting closer and closer, but the man in the flower shirt was still taking pictures.
"Himiya Juni! This time it's my turn, let my photos convey these untold truths! ”
"Dangerous!" Seeing the strange long mouthparts of the xenomorph beast falling, Xia Long shouted and hurriedly rushed towards several people.
"Khooth!"
Raising the shining evolutionary instrument, Xia Long gritted his teeth and rushed over the grass and trees to get up. (To be continued.) )
