Chapter 23: A few days of change
For the escape of the stealth ability, Lu Tuan was furious. However, the Awakened were protected by the mayor, and even mobilized some police officers to be sent by them, so he had to give in. But secretly, on the one hand, a thermal detection device is added to the residence, and on the other hand, a dark rift counterattack plan is launched to eliminate all the zerg in the control area, and weaken the power of the awakened as quietly as possible.
At night, Ling Chen went out to look for cards again, and the harvest was much less than yesterday, only about twenty, but fortunately, he got two much-needed healing cards.
Seeing that the girl on the bed woke up, the other party didn't cry or scream, which made Ling Chen breathe a sigh of relief, and took back the hand that was ready to block the other party's mouth at any time. It's late at night, and a scream may be heard far away.
The girl blinked and stared at him, her face expressionless.
The last time they met, the other party didn't say a word, and Ling Chen even suspected that the other party couldn't speak: "Ahem, you are here, you can almost be regarded as saved by me." Don't leave in a hurry, it's safe here, the army won't find this, you take care of your injuries first, and then you can't heal your internal injuries with a low-level healing card. ”
Although in fact, the other party carried the black pot for him, but this is not easy to explain.
"......" The girl stared at Ling Chen and did not speak.
Ling Chen frowned: "Don't you have anything to say?" This way, I can also understand your injuries and other circumstances. ”
“……”
"You can't really speak, can you?"
“……”
Ling Chen was silent for a moment and shook his head: "Forget it!" I'm so stupid, your name is Olisa, isn't it, the name is a bit like a foreigner, you take care of your injuries here, I'll rest somewhere else. ”
"It's not a foreign name."
Ling Chen, who had already stood up and was about to leave, immediately turned back when he heard the voice, and something called surprise rose in his heart, this sense of accomplishment that finally helped the mute to speak after his own efforts, was much higher than killing a few bugs.
However, Ling Chen, who turned around, didn't speak, but just looked at the girl in front of him with a pair of obviously suspicious eyes.
Sure enough, I heard the girl take the initiative to say: "Ao is my country's ...... Reuter is the ...... of our country Sha is our country, put together...... Also. ”
Ling Chen nodded, there are more people called Lili and Sasha in my country, and it makes no sense that the combination of the two words will become a foreign name.
"Then you didn't like to talk like this before?"
This time Olisa did not refuse to answer: "Say...... It's just that after waking up, I don't want to say ......"
It seems that awakening really has a great impact on people, but also, as a stealth assassin, if you have a big mouth, it is really hard to imagine how you will endure the torment of silence in the future.
After understanding the other party's physical state and looking to be recovering well, Ling Chen said goodbye and left, but before that, he specially advised: "Don't shout loudly if there is anything, when I come back, if it is really urgent, you can do it by yourself." ”
The next morning, when I came back from a night's sleep outside, I saw Huang Mao standing at the door, screaming incessantly.
"Big brother...... Big brother, if you don't get up again, it's time to eat......"
Ling Chen frowned, of course he didn't need to queue up to get any free food, but in order not to arouse suspicion, he still had to go twice a day. Today's time was almost up, and he came back to retrieve the ID card he had forgotten in the house.
"Big ...... Eldest brother! ”
Seeing Ling Chen coming back from outside, Huang Mao was also a little surprised, but then his face suddenly changed, revealing a flattering smile: "Big brother is really interested, and he still maintains a good habit of morning exercise." ”
Glancing at the other party lightly, Ling Chen was a little surprised that the other party actually took the initiative to come over: "If you have anything to say, don't play tricks with me." ”
"Yes, that's right." Huang Mao rubbed his hands, his expression was very nervous, "I want to follow my eldest brother in the future, that ...... That one...... I don't know if the eldest brother can fulfill the little brother's little dream. ”
"That's what you're dreaming of? Which boss is strong, and which boss is mixed up? If the Awakened wanted you, I'm afraid they wouldn't come to me, I'll send you a word. ”
After listening to Ling Chen's answer, Huang Mao knew what to do, and subconsciously asked, "What words?" ”
"As far as your dream is, you can roll me as far as you want!"
Huang Mao stayed for a moment, and didn't wake up until Ling Chen returned to the house, and suddenly shouted, "Boss, I will work hard to become your little brother!" ”
……
For a few days, Ling Chen searched the security area, and the number of cards he got was far less than that of the first night, and most of the cards he encountered were low-level white cards, and his charge for this kind of card was not very large.
Someone seems to have noticed the role of the cards, he thought. But it's nothing, he has strengthened his physical fitness and vitality content to the apex of the first order, and he has encountered the so-called second-order barrier, and the first-order enhancement card has basically no effect on him.
Of course, he would provide some cards to Surya from time to time, so that the latter could have more self-protection in battle.
In the past few days, although he did not participate in the counteroffensive of the dark rift, and only hid in the house and cultivated wildly, he also knew that the battle was very fierce.
Through Huang Mao's diligent description, he knew that a large number of people were carried to the cremation site for cremation every day. And most of the cremated people are not complete people, those are only with a broken head, and the corpse is relatively intact, many people only have half of their bodies, or even only a quarter of their bodies are mixed with others, and they can't tell you and me......
After killing people, insects often eat on the spot, and unless they are not hungry, they will continue to attack threatening humans around them, and they are often attracted to fresher human bodies not far away when they are halfway through eating...... This resulted in a lot of corpses, and it was impossible to piece together the complete picture.
After several days of continuous fighting, the bugs that had been everywhere in the safe zone were cleared, and as soon as they emerged from the cracks, they would be attacked by concentrated fire, and they could not pose any threat. Peace has finally ushered in the interior of the human security zone, as if returning to the pre-apocalyptic era.
In the past few days of fighting, the cards that have initially shown their prominence have made a great contribution. A large number of puppets and ferocious phantom beasts that appear from the creature card can attract the attention of multiple bugs, and with the fire attacks in the back, the results are very remarkable. No longer like the beginning, a few bugs rushed into the team, so that the guns did not dare to shoot casually, and the power was greatly reduced.
Not only that, spell cards, equipment cards, and other cards also give ordinary people the capital to fight against the awakened. A large number of cards were rewarded, and although they were only white cards, they also attracted countless people to join the garrison. If it weren't for the limited number of cards, I'm afraid everyone would have been part of the garrison by now.
And those who were rewarded with cards were all obtained by having excellent physical fitness and defeating others in various assessments, like those who were bitten by bloodsuckers and suffered a great loss of qi and blood, they had no chance at all, and even the two free meals in each day had to be squeezed by the people around them. In addition, after the body was bitten, the large bag that gradually bulged was itching every night, and compared to the awakened, it was a hellish life.
With a large number of new combat forces, S City has set up a number of special operations teams, a biological wing, a spell wing, an armed wing, and a transport wing...... Of course, the status is under the Awakening United, although the number is not large, but it is also a fresh blood. And these have never appeared in previous lives, plus a large number of awakened people who have survived, human beings are already much stronger than the same period in previous lives.
……
In a candle-lit room in the basement of the Awoken headquarters, a man with a disheveled hair sat on the edge of his bed, his eyes blank and in a very poor state of mind, but he still insisted on sitting there, not lying on the bed.
This man was Zhang Hong, who was ordered to atone for his sins every day until his sins were gone.
Of course, this was Ling Chen's attention, and when he saw the other party reappearing, he wanted to solve it secretly. However, when he saw that the other party's flame could refine and extract the steel on Guan Ying's body, he temporarily let him survive, and it was a pity to kill him like this.
Suliya didn't agree with it originally, but it was too vicious to do so, as if she had a deep hatred. However, after discovering that there was a supernatural person in the team who could restore the mental power of others, he thought about Xiaoying's future growth and agreed.
In this regard, Ling Chen sighed speechlessly, he was most harmed by the other party in his previous life, but at this time, he had to intercede for the other party, and his fate was really very strange.
And after a few days of tempering, Guan Ying is simply a humanoid tank at this time, even if she doesn't use the ability of skin steel, she can be invulnerable, and she can also further strengthen this ability by absorbing steel, and the potential is so strong that there is no end in sight.
However, her ability is not invincible, Qiu Yeshen's gravity ability will restrain her to death, double the gravity to press down, Guan Ying herself will soon be unable to support it. Like Surya's ability, it also requires physical support, and without physical strength, the ability has almost no effect. In this respect, it can't compare to a purely spiritual ability. Not only that, but once you absorb more steel than you can limit, you may have a hard time walking and breathing......
Fortunately, Zhang Hong's flame can refine steel, and not only that, there seems to be another state on top of the steel, the color is similar to amber, and the weight is unexpectedly much lighter. As soon as she has time, Guan Ying will go to Zhang Hong to strengthen herself, although she no longer blames the other party in her heart, she always can't help but want to make herself stronger.
At this time, after Guan Ying left, Zhang Hong was still sitting there, and the whole person looked very haggard, as if he was ten years old.
There was a squeak at the door, and his whole body shook, and a trace of sobriety and happiness emerged from the depths of his eyes, and then he stood up and staggered towards the door.
A woman in white appeared there, holding today's food in her hand, and when she saw him coming down to the ground, she hurriedly ran over and helped him back to the bed.
"Didn't you say you don't have to greet me, you're so weak now, what if you fall!"
The woman was almost angry, and pressed her hands on his head: "Let me recover your mental power first, I guess it's very uncomfortable now." ”
Two clusters of glittering light shrouded Zhang Hong's head, his brows gradually loosened, revealing a comfortable look, his nose twitched from time to time, smelling the fresh fragrance of the woman in front of him, he actually had an unprecedented sense of happiness.
Suddenly, he hugged the woman, and in the other party's exclamation, he murmured, "Jingrou, don't leave me...... I live in this dark place, and what I think about most every day is looking forward to your arrival...... You are the only light in my heart...... So please don't leave me...... Don't leave me ......"
Feeling that she was being held tightly, the woman was startled at first, and then she heard the soft and almost pleading words of the person in front of her, and her voice was full of affection and apprehension, and for a moment, she felt as if her heart had been hit by something soft......
"Okay, okay, just don't leave you, just sit honestly and wait until I heal your injuries." Reach out and gently pat the other person, signaling that he can let go.
"Huh? Yes! ”
Zhang Hong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly sat up straight, his hands honestly clinging to his legs, and he didn't dare to move. On his face, which seemed to be very old just now, there is something called a glow that is gradually glowing.
"Flutter!"
The woman smiled: "You don't have to be so serious, just sit casually, but don't move, or I'll be angry." ”
