******************************************************************************

Before setting off for the missing ruins of the expedition, Lin Xue first took us to a small town not far from the base.

The town is small, about a few thousand people, but the buildings along the streets look neat and modern, not at all like an isolated desert town.

The people in town didn't seem to react to our arrival, they just glanced at us outsiders and went about their own business.

I don't know what the road is about, but walking in this town, I always have a strange feeling.

"I didn't expect there to be such a town in the middle of the desert." Looking at the shallow flow of people coming and going around him, I couldn't help but be a little surprised, although Zhilu Dao also has people living in the desert, but the problem is - this is the central area of the Taklamakan Desert! Inaccessible and resourceless, unable to solve even the most basic drinking water, how could the appearance of a town in this place not make her curious.

Zheng Yiming seemed familiar with this place, and he introduced as he led the way in front of us: "This town is not an ordinary place, in fact, it is a refuge - it can also be called a penal colony. ”

"What?" My gossip soul burned all at once.

"The number one smuggler in the world, the arms dealer, the descendants of the expelled big family, the hermit masters who were hunted down by the enemy, and even one or two people who made mistakes and were not allowed to leave this desert for the rest of their lives, don't underestimate everyone here, any one of them can make the entire world tremble."

"Ahh She exclaimed, then grabbed my arm tightly, and the seemingly kind-looking desert dwellers around her suddenly seemed to turn into vicious thugs.

"Don't worry," Lin Xue patted her shallow shoulder comfortingly, "No matter what big person you are, you have to be honest when you come to this exile town, in this place, there are a few rules, first: no matter how big a mistake you make outside, when you get here, you will be written off, that is, you are already 'dead'." Second: Once here, no one will want to leave without the permission of the organization, unless you are confident that you have the ability to escape the pursuit of the entire organization. Thirdly: no one should want to cause trouble here, no matter how unfortunate you are outside, you are just an ordinary townsman here, otherwise—hehe, something very discordant will happen anyway. In addition, this town is not completely isolated from the outside world, occasionally there will be some outsiders who have permission to come in, but they don't know the truth about the town, and those who can know the truth of the town are only special people like Chen Jun in the organization. ”

"Awesome," I said, smacking my lips, "how do you feel like a lawless terrorist organization?" ”

"Cut—we're contributing to the world!" Lin Xue habitually retorted to me, "Most of these guys will cause harm to human beings as long as they live in the world realm, but it is a pity to kill them, so we have adopted this approach."

"The organization provides them with shelter so that they will not be torn to pieces by the enemy or others, correspondingly, they stay here honestly, and use their abilities to serve the organization, whether you believe it or not, there are examples of people in front of you: they direct the flow of billions of funds in the outside world through the Internet or other means, just to be able to eat a full meal here, so this is a refuge, and it is also a place of exile......"

Refuge...... Penal ......

I carefully understood Lin Xue's words, and once again carefully observed the desert dwellers who looked ordinary.

From the outside, they all looked like they were just ordinary residents, but when I looked closely, I noticed the difference in their eyes.

Some are indifferent, some are insensitive, some are unwilling, and some are naked jealous of us.

But here they can only suppress these emotions deep in their hearts, and try to make themselves an ordinary desert dweller.

At this moment, "Big brother, do you want a plate?" A somewhat familiar bass voice came from not far away.

"Crunch—" My body petrified instantly.

With a "squeak" sound, I turned my stiff neck around, and then a knight-faced uncle dressed like the Matrix was in sight selling pirated disks to passers-by.

…… Sicarlo, the Empire's outstanding commander, was executed by the Emperor on December 6, 2010, for being too idiotic.

Just kidding......

But I really want to do it, bastard! Are you really the commander of the Hiling Empire? Aren't you really an extras who come out to be funny or an undercover agent sent by the enemy to smash the scene? Didn't you have a little bit of intelligence training in the military? Except for selling CDs in Matrix suits along the way, can't you think of a better way to disguise your identity?!

At this moment, I don't have any hope for the IQ of this knight-faced uncle.

"Huh? Why do I think this buying uncle is so familiar? Lin Xue, who had once seen Sicaro's figure by chance in the car, muttered to herself a little strangely.

That's not the point, is it? The crux of the matter is, how can there be an uncle who buys pirated disks in this place, right?

"No—how could there be such a person here?!" Zheng Yiming reacted first, "Catch him!" ”

"Wait!" I hurried to stop it.

"What's wrong?" Lin Xue asked me strangely, "Do you know this person?" ”

I'm so brainless, why do I make a noise!

In the face of Lin Xue's inquiring gaze, I quickly organized my inner language, but how can I explain the relationship between this uncle who sells pirated CDs in Exile Town and me?

"He's a friend of my brother." Pandora spoke suddenly.

…… Pandora, do you know that I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of this uncle who looks suspicious at first glance!

"It's also a paranormal." Pandora continued to break the news.

"What?!" Lin Xue, Lin Feng, and Zheng Yiming exclaimed in unison, these days, isn't the ability worthless? How can a suspicious uncle who buys a pirated disk on the street become a stranger?

At this time, Pandora's voice came through the spiritual connection: "Sicaro is an Imperial officer who is very good at positional defense warfare, and his own combat effectiveness cannot be ignored, I hope to have him join us in our later operations - I think this incident is not so simple, it is always good to have an extra layer of insurance." ”

"Jun Chen," Lin Xue's voice interrupted my conversation with Pandora, "Do you know this person?" Is he really a paranormal? ”

"Well...... That's right! I replied with some panic, and then I had an idea and said, "He'll add blood!" ”

"Huh?"

After a few minutes, it is claimed that blood will be added...... Ahem, it's Sicaro, who heals, walking with us.

"Jun Chen, is this guy really okay?" Lin Xue asked with some concern while looking at the knight-faced uncle who was selling pirated disks along the way, "Suddenly let a person of unknown origin join." ”

"I can vouch for it with my personality, he is absolutely reliable!"

"A travelling paranormal who accidentally got lost while visiting the Taklamakan Desert, strayed into a penal town protected by the anomalous powers, and was reduced to selling pirated CDs for a living - do you think I should believe it? And that weird name, Sicaro, doesn't sound like a real name? Lin Xue was still full of distrust for this uncle who dared to sell pirated CDs in Exile Town, but in the end she sighed and said, "Forget it, anyway, my intuition tells me that this person can be trusted, I hope my ability didn't lie to me this time." ”

"Who the hell are we going to?" Shallow finally couldn't hold back, "We're almost at the end of the town, when are we going to leave for that ruin?" One day late, my dad will be in more danger! ”

"Don't worry," Lin Feng smiled gently, "The person we are looking for now is very important, without his help, I'm afraid we would have disappeared in that ruins like your father." ”

"Who is so powerful?" I wondered, "Could it be the Anomalous?" ”

Lin Xue shook his head and said, "No, he's just an ordinary old man, but he has something that is not ordinary, that thing has the power to settle down the ruins - it's a pity that the expedition team really believes in the so-called modern science too much, and their disdain for the mysterious power leads to accidents." ”
