Catherine's eyes were scattered and distracted in the face of inquiry.

"Mark!" McCall actually woke up in contemplation, and lost no time in interrupting the questioning, and asked:

"Tell me how you got here?"

Mark gave a rough account of what had happened, and his eyes lit up as he listened to the twists and turns of the experience.

McCall's eyes rolled, and after a moment of contemplation, he said excitedly:

"I said brother, since everyone can't go back, there's nothing wrong with that. You see, the natives here treat me as if I were a god, no worse than in the army. ”

"In that case, why don't we push the boat down the river and be immortals here? In time, perhaps we will be able to rule one side again. This will be the beginning of another legend~"

"What?" I was amazed that McCall actually thought so.

Suddenly, I felt that the person in front of me was no longer a stranger.

This......

Or is it the same as before? Schoolmate? Comrade in arms?

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

A violent cough made McCall beat his chest, and the lack of oxygen made his head red, and he could no longer speak.

"Mike, what's wrong with you?"

"Stop!" Mark got up and wanted to help, but was stopped by McCall: "I'm fine......"

Don't turn your body and cover your mouth with your hand, as if to stop the vomit that is about to gush out.

"Honey!" Seeing this, Catherine ran away, constantly patting him on the back.

"Gott~"

With a gentle touch, McCall let out a flurry of retching.

Subsequently, the cough appeared to improve.

The blood gushed from the incessant retching, causing McCall to blush and bloodshot eyes.

Keep clutching your chest and try your best to regain your composure.

"Well, hum~" After a few fake coughs, McCall held his forehead with one hand, as if to cover his embarrassment.

"Uh......"

The pharynx slides up and down, as if something has been forcibly swallowed.

After swallowing, you can speak in a hoarse tone.

"Mark ......"

Before he could open his mouth, Mark took the lead in asking, "Mike, what's wrong with you?" How's the body? ”

"I'm fine, don't make a fuss. Just a little cold. "Looking left and right, trying to cover up.

Clearing his throat, McCall raised his voice: "I'm afraid you're not just here to play, right?" What's the matter? Didn't you know we were here and came to us on purpose? ”

"Oh no~ I'm looking for something." Mark hurriedly defended, feeling that it was wrong, and added: "It's not exactly something, and I can't tell." ”

"What is it?" McCall rolled his eyes, not angry.

told him about the grievances of the one-eyed old lizard, and also about the origin of the lizardman's genes, and the "magic box" he was about to go to.

"Enough!"

Without waiting for anyone to finish, McCall appeared very sensitive, even a little disgusted, and interrupted Mark in rough language:

"Mark! I don't care what you do. I hope you don't care what I do in the future! ”

"What are you?" I felt that he had something to say, but I didn't know why he said it.

Catherine's eyes glowed faintly, tilting her head to look at herself, presumably with interest in the topic she had raised.

Perhaps because of her fiancé, she didn't ask.

"Mike, the inhabitants here seem to be obsessed with you."

"Yes!" Feeling that this had spoken to his heart, the excitement swept away the malaise just now, and McCall took out the vigor of his previous sermon and chattered:

"Oh~ my dear Mark. Don't you know wow~ These natives are amazed by our technology, and a magnetic levitation will impress them, not to mention 3D projection. Coupled with the words of the Bible, it is natural to worship me as a god. ”

Finding that McCall no longer used "we" in his speech, but specifically referred to "I", he was slightly unhappy in his heart, and inadvertently, Mark frowned.

The casual move was keenly noticed by Catherine.

She lifted her drooping hairline and tucked it back, her eyes twinkling, trying to avoid making eye contact with Mark.

Although this action is not quite the same as the man's scalp scratching action, the meaning is the same, and they are all hiding their intentions.

"My dear Mark, maybe you don't believe it. If I wanted these natives to die, they would not hesitate to do so. Think about it, how funny this kind of person is! ”

McCall was unaware, still gushing on topics that excited him:

"Brother Mark, if we work together to create a miracle. When the time comes, I can treat you like a god. ”

Between the words, it is all revealed that McCall is already obsessed with this way.

And Catherine, who was on one side, listened to it, and her face became more and more ugly as he spoke.

The two of them had two very different expressions, much to Mark's surprise.

"God's treatment?"

I am not interested, just as boring as preaching in the name of God.

I know McCall too well, and I have been an atheist since I was a child.

And when I got here, I was so addicted to Shintoism, I had to doubt it in my heart.

Did he suffer a huge change in his temperament on the planet R23H5?

I can't.

It was fine when I went to the rescue on Bruce's orders.

Or was it stimulated to see the alien killing team?

I can't.

It's eloquent, coherent, and doesn't seem crazy.

"Mike, I will definitely do what I promise others. For this reason, no matter how dangerous the lies ahead, I have to look inside. Mark said frankly: "I want to invite you to come along, is that okay?" ”

Apparently McCall was not interested in this kind of thing at all, and waved his hand again and again:

"I'm going to go on your own, I don't want to take any more risks. We're good here. ”

"Kate, what about you?" Then he looked at Catherine.

Catherine didn't speak, but her eyes flickered, but she felt the urge to go along.

I wondered: why didn't she speak out to make her stand?

"Mike, it's up to you! But what if Kate wants to go with me? Will you allow it? She spoke her mind for Catherine.

Catherine's eyes flickered, and she shook her hands lightly, motioning for Mark not to mention it.

"No way!"

Before Catherine could speak, McCall rudely interrupted:

"I can promise you everything else, but this one is resolutely not good!"

The cold and direct refusal made Mark look lonely.

I feel that this best friend in front of me is no longer a stranger, and he is no longer the former Xiaoxiao, comrade-in-arms and classmates.

It's just that I still need his help, so I have to ask politely: "Mike, please help me get some supplies." ”

The request was not excessive, and McCall could not refuse again, so he waved at Catherine:

"My dear. You go and help Mark with this trivial matter. I'm tired and need to rest. ”

With his eyes drooping slightly, McCall stopped talking, and with the help of a maglev stool, entered the hibernation pod.

Faced with his friend's ruthless indifference, Mark was at a loss.

After he entered the sleep pod, he asked eagerly, "Kate, what happened to McCall?" ”

"Shh~"

Catherine made a silent gesture to signal not to ask, and then led Mark and the others back to the village.

The people of the village were extremely indifferent to the arrival of the people. It can be seen that they are actually disgusted and resistant.

I am scarce of food because of the barrenness of the land, and I can barely make ends meet, so how can I have extra rations?

It was only because of McCall's "God's will" that the villagers took out the only food they had to meet Mark's needs.

Looking at this group of people with yellow faces and thin muscles, Mark's heart was filled with sadness.

While suffering from hunger in the body, he is actually obsessed with false Shinto. If you tell it calmly, you must have been poisoned for a long time, and you may not believe your own explanation.

Not wanting to hurt them too much, Mark only took the minimum quota.

Everyone was amazed, showing a rare gratitude.

After receiving supplies, the group carried the food on their backs and walked slowly towards the camp outside the village.

It can be seen that although everyone has many questions, none of them dare to ask, only knowing that the leader has met the old man here.

It was still Leia who was eagerly waiting for her return in the camp.

For her innocence, Mark was ashamed.

I have a family, a wife, children, and relatives, and I don't belong here, and I may be about to leave.

For this reason, you can't easily possess her out of desire, selfishness, although everything is just her own thoughts, and Leia may not be willing to accept it.

After dinner, when the leader was sullen, they stopped gathering in the tent to discuss and dispersed.

Leaning alone on the railing of the bed, looking up at the roof of the tent in the black hole, I wondered what the intentions of McCall and Catherine's strange behavior were.
