Jiang Ke stopped at a fork in the road.

Signs in white letters on a blue background, one pointing to the airport, one pointing to downtown Anchorage, and the other pointing to the highway to the north.

Jiang Ke looked back in the direction of the supermarket, James and Ruby should be hiding well at this moment.

He was still a little relieved about those two people.

Although he became a university professor at a young age and is well-informed, he has no sense of crisis and is too optimistic. The other is too young, and under the weight of the environment, it is very easy to break the jar and fall. But...... He thought of what the "down jacket" had said, and it was clear that the person the Creator group wanted to capture was himself. Being there for them adds risk to them.

Besides, Jaime and Ruby are safe here. The outside environment is like this, and being able to eat and dress warmly is the most luxurious treatment.

Jiang Ke looked in the direction of the airport again.

Airport, yes. He's nearing the end of his journey, and he's going to have to say goodbye to Jaime and Ruby. During this period of time, he lived and died together, so he couldn't say goodbye to those two people in person, but there was a banquet in the world. Time also dilutes everything.

Along the way, he remembered Director Chen Lian's words several times. When he set out from Fairbanks, his intention was to join the departing team, but that all changed when he saw Captain Wan Liang.

Now, he can't afford to expect the safety of others. Whether or not he joined the team did not affect the fundamental purpose of the mission-to return home with research on the Slots.

Although at this moment, there are still people waiting for his mission items in the Celestial Empire, he does not know.

Jiang Ke lowered his head and let out a long breath, and the mist quickly disappeared in the air.

His figure shook, and exhaustion filled his body again. It seems that the captain's secret medicine has reached its statute. The excited brain gradually returned to calm, and the power that once surged in his body and could not be released now disappeared from his fingertips.

After a few moments, he finally made his decision.

He is a soldier and should not be shaken at such times. Although he came to Anchorage by accident, he had seen this place on the map, there was an international airport and a dock, and he was probably destined to return home here.

Jiang Ke, who made the decision, did not hesitate to take a firm step in the direction of the airport.

“Ke！”

“Ke！” A voice in the distance was shouting his name.

Jiang Ke paused almost imperceptibly, then he pretended not to hear and continued to walk forward.

“Ke！ Hey! The voice was getting closer and closer, and Jiang Ke couldn't help pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Jiang Ke had no choice but to turn around and look behind him, and two people and a dog he was familiar with ran not far away.

"I'll just say he's fine!" Jaime gasped as he ran, but a big smile still bloomed on his face after seeing Jiang Ke.

"Wangwang", Andrew rushed to the front, rubbing Jiang Ke happily.

Ruby also followed, she stood in front of Jiang Ke and said, "We really couldn't help but come out, we heard the sound of the helicopter driving away, and thought you were captured......

Jaime smirked at Jiang Ke and said, "But we came along the way, and when we saw those two corpses and the car, I knew you were all right." ”

Jiang Ke smiled tiredly, since we met again, it was better to explain his intentions directly.

"You're up again?" James couldn't help but ask before Jiang Ke could speak, "The power of evolution has been activated?" ”

Jiang Ke nodded.

Jaime patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, wait until I help you take care of your injuries one last time." Jaime glanced at the sign, and sure enough, Jiang Ke was on his way to the airport, the smile on his face was a little unbearable, and no one could face the departure of his friend.

"Well, and I found a car that could be repaired. Give me a day and Jaime and I will drive you to the airport. Ruby said from the side.

"Hmm...... Good. Jiang Ke was surprised for a moment, and then nodded.

"Say yes! So let's go back to the supermarket first, where there is plenty of food and simple medical supplies. Jaime seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, he pulled the corners of his mouth, and when he saw Jiang Ke's smile at first, he was already a little reluctant at the moment.

Just as the three of them were about to leave, a black shadow flew over, and the black shadow drew a long parabola in the air and flew straight towards Jiang Ke.

The exhaustion and the fading of his strength greatly reduced Jiang Ke's mobility, and he only dragged the two of them back a few steps at the moment, trying to stay away from the black shadow.

"Bang", there was a heavy muffled sound on the ground. Something the size of a man fell in front of them, and red liquid slowly flowed out of it.

"The sequel came too fast, right? The end of the film has just been subtitled! Jaime skillfully used his own movie memes to express his shock.

"At least it's a good thing that they didn't attack us in the first place." Jiang Ke looked around and didn't find anything suspicious, it seemed that the other party had no intention of showing up.

it.

Jiang Ke, who had just experienced a fierce battle, didn't want to think about it so much at the moment, it was nothing more than a soldier coming to block the water and cover the earth, and seeing the move. He looked down at the "thing" on the ground—it was a person.

Jaime tiptoed and carefully kicked with his foot, the corpse was already cold, I don't know if it was because of the temperature or if it had been a long time since he died, even the blood was a little dark. Jiang Ke turned this person over, it was an unfamiliar face, his face was full of frightened expressions, but it was not what he knew.

"The stuff has been received, you can come out." Jiang Ke shouted around.

However, no one responded to Jiang Ke.

Their whereabouts have been exposed under the other party's eyelids, but it is quite strange that the other party has not launched any attacks.

Jiang Ke squatted down and decided to figure out the clues hidden on the corpse first.

"Gas?" Jiang Ke turned over the military registration card on the corpse's neck. The badge was already full of blood last time, and he wiped the blood away and read the name carefully.

Subsequently, Jiang Ke turned out a lot of things from his body, among which the most concerned him was those sniper bullets.

"This ...... Attack...... You...... Sniper...... "A slightly hollow voice came from behind the trio, and at first glance it sounded stiff, like a baby who had just learned to speak trying to imitate. The voice was sometimes a soft trill, sometimes it was aggressive, hoarse, and coarse.

The three of them hurriedly turned around and looked at the "person" in front of them.

In front of him was a Slot. His body seemed to be wrapped in a layer of blue-white liquid metal, and his body looked similar to that of a human, except for the slender and taller. But the fluidity of the body and the flexibility of the bones are full of streamlining.

When he first appeared in front of Jiang Ke and the others, his face was the same as his body, as if he was wrapped in a layer of blue-white liquid metal. However, just now, under the layer of liquid, facial features similar to those of human beings gradually emerged. Through the joint efforts of the brow nerve and the facial nerve, the Slots put the position of these facial features properly.

His eyes didn't seem to be used to being outside, sometimes dull, sometimes suspicious.

It's a bit ridiculous to say, his body is very futuristic, but it feels like a mixture of spirituality**, with a kind of primitive power, like a forest god with a human body and a horsetail, or a half-human and half-sheep god of agriculture and animal husbandry, in short, his image always reminds people of some mysterious force of nature.

The appearance of the Slots had only been seen on television before the apocalypse.

The Slots on TV can only be said to be not realistic, and they are not as impactful as standing in front of them.

"S...... This...... Slots. A hint of panic appeared on Jaime's face, and he remembered the weapons dropped by the Slots, which directly caused the death of a large number of humans on Earth.

Jiang Ke instinctively entered the state of preparation, he looked at the Slots in front of him, and said slowly, "That really helps." ”

"Please...... Don't be afraid. I...... Nadia", the Slote still spoke in fits and pieces with that strange emphasis, but he could be heard speaking fluently. He first pointed to himself, then to the corpse on the ground, and finally to Jiang Ke, "Gift." Here you go. ”

Jiang Ke didn't answer, because the other party's expression was extremely confusing. For a moment, Jiang Ke even thought that he was threatening himself, meaning that if he didn't listen to him, he would end up like this corpse.

But after listening to his statement, Jiang Ke frowned, he couldn't understand the situation in front of him a little.

"Have you misunderstood the etiquette of the earth? What kind of gift is this? Jaime said quickly.

"The enemy of the enemy is ...... Friends, you earthlings...... Say. Nadia looked at Jiang Ke.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend?" Jiang Ke confirmed, he didn't want to be wrong here.

Nadia didn't speak, she pointed at Jiang Ke with her finger, and then at herself.

"Since we're friends, what's your purpose?" Jiang Ke asked questions.
