Chapter 663, Quick Knife
(I owe you three chapters, I'm really not feeling well, take a break, I'll make up for it.) Continue to ask for commuter passes and subscription support)
Standing in front of Xiao Yan, in addition to Chuan Shoujing, there were five other people, all dressed differently. There are men in modern suits, women in big trench coats, long knives in their hands, nose rings, mouth holes, and even metal rings inlaid on their faces. There is a shrine maiden wearing a white hunting robe and holding an imperial coin in her hand, a tall monk wearing a robe and holding a Zen staff in her hand, and a ninja who can't see his appearance and gender at all, and his whole body is tightly wrapped in black clothes, and only his eyes can be seen, ninja?
This is really a strange combination, the corners of Xiao Yan's eyes jumped slightly. However, there are many shrines and temples on this side of Higashiyama, so although such a combination is incredible, it is not unacceptable.
Standing behind Xiao Yan, Novelli was also a little surprised by these people with different images, she whispered a few words to Chuan Shoujing in Fusang language, and then turned her head to look at Xiao Yan and said, "These are all her friends on the path of cultivation. ”
Xiao Yan nodded slightly, and without waiting for Chuan Shoujing to greet them one by one, he bypassed these people and turned around and walked towards the gate of the temple. This very rude action made those people very dissatisfied, and the postmodern style woman whispered "Baga", and the long knife in her hand made a rattling sound at the same time, as if she was about to draw the knife.
Kawamori hurriedly stopped her companion's movements, and she said something to the postmodern woman in Fuso, which eventually prevented an unnecessary conflict. For Xiao Yan's somewhat blunt attitude, Novelli was not too surprised, and she also didn't feel embarrassed. between the awakened and these worldly humans. There is always an irreparable rift. It can't be because the other party has the strength to awaken. It is natural to see the other party as your own.
In the final analysis, the ultimate goal of the Awakened and the Trialist is the future of the entire Shijie, and those human beings who have awakened in the world but have not been classified as the Awakened Shijie are only thinking about the safety of a region and at most a country. The difference in vision is obvious, and the difference in vision feels that there is no one else in the shijie that the two sides see.
After a few casual words with Kazukawa Shoujing, Novelli walked out of the temple. I happened to see Xiao Yan outside the temple looking at the night sky in a daze.
"What are you thinking?"
Xiao Yan didn't look back, and said, "I'm calculating the time, the Asian Management Committee will send new people soon, and I'm calculating the time when they will arrive." In addition, the degree of diffusion of Asian teardrops is also troublesome. ”
Novoli smiled slightly and said, "You Chinese people have an old saying, don't be in that position, don't think about what you should do in that position. You are not the head of the management committee, and it is not the speed of the spread of teardrops that should be considered. All you need to do is be well prepared. Get plenty of rest. ”
Xiao Yan turned his head and glanced at Normeri, to be exact. After looking at Norville for a long time, she whispered, "It's strange, I can always experience some kind of familiarity from you." ”
Nuo Weili did not avoid Xiao Yan's gaze, but helped her frame and asked, "Weishenme would say that?" ”
Looking at Novelly's movements, Xiao Yan seemed to smile, but this smile looked blurry in the darkness, and it could not be seen by Novelly.
The morning in Higashiyama came early, but the gloom in the valley was not completely cleared by the sun until nearly 9 o'clock. Along with the arrival of the sunshine were the staff of the Tokyo office, as well as the soldiers in strange uniforms that I had seen there in Scotland.
The appearance of the staff of the office, as well as these soldiers, did not make Xiao Yan feel strange. What was really strange about him was still the inexplicable chase last night. As he said, the hunt came to a strange end after the death of the giant crow, and until now, there has been no new movement.
Even if his reasoning was correct, last night's chase came from a chaotic enemy, but it was a bit too abrupt to be like this. Xiao Yan didn't believe that the opponent would not know about his situation, and at the very least, he would not only send a big crow to challenge the two trialists, there should be a back hand in the back, but he didn't know that Weishenme, the enemy's back hand actually didn't use it.
Treating the chase as child's play?
Xiao Yan shook his head slightly, and then jumped down from the branch in front of the temple, and not sleeping for two consecutive nights had little effect on him now. Soon, the vibration that affected the ground came to Xiao Yan's eyes, it was a large-displacement Harley-style motorcycle, and the one who jumped out of the car was a person Xiao Yan was very familiar with, Du Juan.
"The latest research results."
The cuckoo took off his helmet, shook his head vigorously, shook off his golden hair, and threw Xiao Yan a USB flash drive at the same time.
Xiao Yan took out his laptop from his cloak, connected it to the USB flash drive, looked at it for a while, and frowned slightly. Behind him, Novelli also walked out, and when they saw the cuckoo, the two seemed to be stunned at the same time, but they quickly returned to normal.
"They've been asking us about things."
Novelli said as she took her laptop from Xiao Yan and looked at the demo again.
Xiao Yan raised his head at this time and asked, "The Asian Management Committee has reached this point where there is a shortage of manpower?" ”
Cuckoo nodded and said, "Two reasons, the first reason is that the teardrops spread too quickly, and a low-level trialist may not be able to control the situation, and in turn, it may cause chaos or even unnecessary casualties. Therefore, the Council ordered all trialists below level 3 to return to the headquarters and not leave. There are not many high-level trialists, and they are responsible for the defense of all of Asia, so there is a real shortage of mobile manpower to support you. On the other hand, Alysatia thinks that instead of sending an unfamiliar trialist to assist you, it is better to send someone who is more familiar with me, so that we can get along with each other more quickly. ”
Xiao Yan did not continue to discuss this issue, and now that time was very short, he turned around and walked to the side of the hill, pointed to the besieged village below and asked, "What should I do next?" ”
At this moment, the few people in the temple who were dressed in different costumes walked out one after another, looking at the big jiashi of the awakened person, they almost unanimously whispered in amazement.
The cuckoo glanced at the people and did not ask questions, but replied: "The situation in this village has been communicated through the office and the secular authorities in Fuso, and their opinion is that the affairs of this village should not be allowed to leak to the outside world and cause uncontrollable panic. So it's all up to us. ”
Xiao Yan frowned slightly, and before he could say anything, Chuan Shoujing, who was behind him, had already said something loudly, and then knelt on the ground again and began to cry.
For this kind of woman who faces problems by crying at every turn, Xiao Yan is still respectful and far away. Even before Novelli could translate, the young awakened had already jumped down the hill and began to observe the infected zombies up close for the first time.
Behind him, the cuckoo jumped down and whispered, "How could you meet such a crybaby?" If the world doesn't give up on this village, do you really wait for this village to pollute the whole country? ”
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, he had already come into contact with a zombie that was described as withered, this zombie looked listless, even if he looked at Xiao Yan's eyes, there was no brilliance. If this zombie could still speak, he would most likely ask Xiao Yan to help him, and don't let him continue to suffer so much.
On the body of this zombie, the clothes have been torn apart, and it is impossible to see the original appearance. Only an existence such as a tie will always be tied around the zombie's neck without falling. Xiao Yan casually grabbed the tie around the zombie's neck and twisted it slightly, brown pus oozing out of the tie, looking extremely disgusting.
Looking at Xiao Yan's actions, Du Juan seemed to have discovered something, and she almost said the problem, but before that, Xiao Yan had already made a "shhh" movement in front of her mouth with her other hand.
After continuing to observe a few more zombies, Xiao Yan nodded slightly, looked up at Novelli on the hill, and asked, "Is there any specific result?" Those things are so professional that I can't understand them at all. ”
"In order for teardrops to really cause that special effect, it is necessary to receive a large dose of radiation for a long time to affect the molecular bonds in the gene chain, otherwise it will not be able to cause this dehydration effect just by applying it externally."
"Large doses for a long time?"
Xiao Yan looked around and said, "There are no X-ray machines here, and there are no instruments such as nuclear magnetic radiation. Where can you get such a large dose of radiation for a long time, and it is to turn such a large number of humans into shiyan products. ”
Norweli shrugged her shoulders and responded: "The remnants of the nuclear weapons after the explosion, within 5 years, will probably be able to have such radiation." As for the rest, it's hard to say. ”
After a pause, Novelli did not speak, but gestured to Xiao Yan in sign language.
"There is still no evidence that teardrops are necessarily related to mutation."
Xiao Yan turned his head to look at the cuckoo, and the cuckoo also nodded slightly. The connection between the mutation of the Takemiya Youxing and the excessive concentration of teardrops in his body is still unanswered, and the teardrops and the mutation seem to be two different things.
"Then think of it as two things that are not connected."
Xiao Yan suddenly said: "Even if there is a connection, use a knife to cut it into two parts that are not connected." Only in this way will we not be trapped in a myriad of clues and troubles. ”
He straightened up, looked at the sky and said, "Teardrops are teardrops, just think about how to solve the teardrops, and don't think about anything else for the time being." ”
The cuckoo looked at the silhouette of the young man, and vaguely saw a sharp long knife that had just been unsheathed, standing there, and the light and darkness were cut by him from the middle. The boy's eyes were like the blades of a long knife, shining in the sunlight. (To be continued......)
