Chapter XIV Habits

Throne of Ice.

From the first moment she heard the word, Su felt a wordless depression. Again, it's instinctive, and it's surprisingly accurate. At least in Sue's past memories, whenever such a strong feeling appears, the probability of being correct is at least 60 or more. In fact, if the accuracy rate is always above 50, it has already left the category of probability and randomness, and has entered the realm of luck. Sue's luck has always been good.

Even if there is no hunch, because of Pandora, Sue will go to the Ice Throne once. In any case, the apostle could not be allowed to obtain what was stored in the Ice Throne, and this was Sue's conclusion. This is a conclusion without presuppositions and reasoning logic, but Su still insists. Unlike in old times, it has been proven repeatedly in this world that there are many times when there is no need for reasons to draw the right conclusions. It seems that this world is not a world made of strict numbers and logic.

In the days since Pandora left, Sue has been busy cleaning up the base, testing the power engine, and planning the use of the base. Clearing the base can be a lengthy process, but with the support of the Blade of Perdition, the process is greatly accelerated. After the initial 150 workers, Victor sent in another 200 robust staff and a team of experienced engineers. He also brought Sue enough food, water, and tents. This is the most urgent shortage, more scarce than labor or even soldiers. Although the number of survivors of the new era is only a fraction of the old era, there are as many people as you can afford to sacrifice their bodies, skills and dignity, wherever you can afford enough water and food to sustain life.

Sue had already guessed that Victor's attitude suddenly became more positive and enthusiastic, most likely because he already knew of Valle's death. The Divine Punishment Knight Captain seemed to be a well-known figure in the Iron Gate and even in the entire Western Regions of the Great Lakes, but with the strong contrast of Pandora, Sue's impression of him became extremely blurred. When I think of him occasionally, the most common thought is that this guy's sword is not heavy enough, and it is not strong enough, but it is just beautiful in vain.

The 69 base was quickly formed, and Su also had a team of nearly 100 people. This force is full of experienced veterans, and as for their loyalty, this is not something to worry about. Overwhelming force and survival is the best way to guarantee loyalty. In addition to cleaning the base, Li will train this unit every day, not physically, but tactically. Leigh reorganized ranks and ranks, reaffirmed discipline, and prescribed concise and complete tactical terminology, while regrouping according to each person's different abilities, no longer the chaotic situation of all shooters in long-range combat and hand-to-hand combat in close combat.

Su was waiting for this unit to initially become combat-ready, and at the same time, he was also waiting for himself and his servants to recover from their injuries. The three servants seemed to be seriously injured under Pandora's hands, but after the battle, none of them were fatally injured. This kind of precise control power not only shocked Su, but also re-understood her combat effectiveness. Looking back now, in that night's battle, the black-haired Black Flame Chapter never really did his best. But Su knew very well that Pandora really wanted to kill him in the first place, if he hadn't passed the guò test.

Su's injuries were slowly healing, but it would still take more than ten days to regain his full combat strength. He had completely lost all contact with his flesh and blood, but the blood stored in Crotina's body was absorbed and transformed into all the energy that could be transformed, and he died of exhaustion. Thus, Sue knew before Pandora attacked that Crotina was dead, and there was certainly no trace of death.

The energy entrenched in his wounds is still stubbornly preserved, fighting against the power of Su all the time, and waging a doomed war.

These energies fight alone in despair, stubborn and tenacious, but unable to find a way forward, just like Clotina who is always struggling with memories and reality and is lonely.

For some reason, in the days after Pandora left, Sue would think of Klotina a lot. Maybe it's because the injuries on his body are about to heal, and the energy that has been haunting him for many days is about to dissipate? After all, this is the last trace of Klotina's stay in the world.

Klotina is right, there are so many similarities between her and Sue. Although she was an enemy in a life-and-death fight, and although she almost lost her life at her hands, Sue did not hate her.

I don't hate her, but I must kill her.

Sue and Klotina are like two trains running opposite each other on the same track, either they die or one is destroyed, and there is no third possibility. Perhaps the vast majority of people in this era are on one-way trains, and there is never a fork in the road ahead.

When the situation at the base stabilized, Su decided to go to the Iron Gate and Crane City, the short-term goal was not necessarily to occupy, and it was acceptable to obtain a relatively stable trade relationship by force. In this way, even if Su has a preliminary rear, he also has the most primitive piece of the puzzle of his own forces. He had already discovered that in order to fight against a Being-level Being, it was not enough for him to become stronger, he had to possess enough resources and establish his own power.

Sue is neither a manager, nor a qualified leader, and if his dream can become a reality, his truest idea is to lead Medirri with Persephone to settle in a place with mountains and seas, and then grow old like the people of the old days.

Su knew that it would always be just a dream.

In fact, Su can continue to flee and flee to a farther place. However, Pandora's appearance confirmed his original assumption, that is, no matter how far he escaped, it was impossible to escape the pursuit of the Holy Rank Ability. So after discovering the western region of the Great Lakes, Su immediately chose to stay and tried to establish his own power as quickly as possible. No matter what Su Benxin thought, he was already determined to build a kingdom of his own.

During this time, there was also a small episode. When Sue told Medirri about the idea of going north to the Ice Throne, Medirli told Sue very seriously that there was no need to venture there, and there was no need to worry about Pandora, she would not find it.

Sue smiled at the time, telling him that he had a gut feeling that he had to get what was under the Ice Throne before the Apostles. If the apostles had found out about his existence, they would most likely have come and killed him. So whatever can weaken the apostles, he has to do. Although, neither Sue nor Medirli actually knew what the so-called apostles were.

At that time, Su Yao looked at the north, because he was thoughtful, so he said very naturally and almost subconsciously: "I can't die, if I die, there will be no one to protect you." ”

Medirri nodded, stood beside Sue, and grabbed his hand.

Although in the battle with Pandora, Medirri showed a combat power that was hidden above Sue, but Sue still said this sentence as a matter of course, and Medirri accepted it as a matter of course.

The power of habit is powerful, and over the past ten years, some things and ideas have been deeply rooted.

So it was with Sue, and so was Medirri.
