It was dawn, but it was like it wasn't dawning.

The storm continued to fall, and the valleys of the mountains became rivers, and the rivers rolled down to the low-lying areas. The thunder and lightning in the air were unusually low, falling one after another, igniting a large tree from time to time, and then being extinguished by the heavy rain.

Chu Jungui put on his helmet and walked out of the barracks.

Li Ruobai didn't know when he followed, patted Chu Jungui's shoulder, and said, "Let's go get some ore and come back." ”

Chu Jungui followed him out of nearly a thousand meters and came to a hillside. There are obvious traces of excavation on the hillside, but the continuous flow of the mountain water fills some of the caves. Li Ruobai walked around the hillside a few times, kept scanning, and finally chose a location and said, "Right here, dig up some rare metals." ”

Chu Jungui picked up the automatic mining machine and dug into the position designated by Li Ruobai. The automatic miner looks like an electric drill, except that there is a pipe in the back that feeds both the mined ore and the crushed stone into the selector behind it. In the separator, those with high mineral content will be left behind, and those with low or no mineral content will be blown out.

While mining silently, Li Ruobai quietly entered Chu Jungui's private channel and said, "Jungui?"

"Huh?"

"I heard that a long time ago, people on the home planet didn't have armor, let alone auxiliary power. In such weather, whether it is a big man or an ordinary person, if you go out, you will be drenched in soup, haha!"

Chu Jungui thought about it carefully, if he didn't have a battle armor, it seemed that he could completely protect himself from rain just by relying on his combat uniform. It's just that there is no auxiliary power, and it is quite difficult for ordinary people to move in such a violent storm.

Li Ruobai guessed his thoughts and said: "If there is no battle armor, where is the inner lining of combat clothing? In the old days, there were only raincoats and umbrellas. ”

Chu Jungui didn't understand what he said these things for, but past experience told Chu Jungui that as long as he didn't ask, Li Ruobai himself would say it after a while.

Sure enough, Li Ruobai sighed and said: "In the old era, both big people and ordinary people would be cold if they had to get drenched in the rain, why is it that now that they have conquered many star fields, the identity gap between people has become even bigger?"

Politics is not Chu Jungui's area of expertise, so he can only listen quietly.

Li Ruobai walked back and forth a little irritably, as if there was something difficult to decide. Chu Jungui watched him walk back and forth dozens of times before he said, "Hey!"

"What's wrong?"

"The ore is full. ”

Li Ruobai then remembered that the two of them came out to mine. However, Chu Jungui's voice seemed to make him make up his mind, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Fuck the status!"

When Li Ruobai left, Chu Jungui silently opened the selection machine, which contained four square bags of selected ore. He grabbed the four ore bags and carried them behind his back.

"Divide me in two packs. ”

"You move the machine. Your leg isn't healed yet. ”

Li Ruobai resisted the portable concentrator and two mining guns, and then remembered something and shouted, "Isn't your leg also injured?"

Chu Jungui ignored him, he had already gone far in the storm, and Li Ruobai hurriedly followed.

As soon as he entered the camp, Chu Jungui received a new task on his personal terminal: camp relocation.

After careful consideration, Meng Jianghu decided to relocate the camp, take all the necessary materials and equipment with him, and go to the city of the Blue Flag Army. A city with an industrial base is very convenient. The point is that there are still tens of thousands of people in the city, and with a little training they can be put into use. Rebuilding a starship is no small task.

Everyone started to get busy, but Chu Jungui had nothing to do. His task is both simple and complex, perimeter vigilance. The task required him to ensure the safety of the two-hundred-metre area around the camp. In this weather, beyond two hundred meters, the gods could not hit the target.

Chu Jungui picked up the gun and walked into the storm.

In the camp, Lin Xi watched Chu Jungui's figure disappear, and the mask switched to mirror mode again.

Chu Jungui searched and advanced alone in the mountains and wilderness, and the sky was always as dark as night, as if the sun had never been there. The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the howling wind had reached level ten, and all the trees were swaying wildly. Except for a few protruding rocks on the ground, there is rushing water. The water is so strong that it is close to a flash torrent.

In this world, it seems that he is the only one left.

No, he's not human, just a monster, a monster like a man.

Chu Jungui felt as if there was an emotion brewing in his heart that had never appeared before. But this emotion is not unfamiliar, and it is a teenager who will have this emotion. Whenever this happens, the teenager will close himself off and cut off all contact with the outside world.

Just like when a test subject is asleep.

He tried to rummage through his memory, but couldn't find the reason for the emotion. The memories before this emotion appeared, all blank, nothing. It's not like it's a manual removal, but the teenager himself forcibly forgot about it.

didn't find an answer, which made Chu Jungui a little frustrated.

At that moment, something suddenly moved in his field of vision. The system automatically determines the identity of the moving object: the subordinate fighter of the chainsaw.

Chu Jungui instinctively sneaked over and silently followed behind the warrior. The soldier searched a few dozen meters in the direction of the camp, then turned to the right, searched a few hundred meters and then returned to the place from which he came.

Chu Jungui remained patient and followed silently. It didn't take long for their camp to be discovered. The camp was extremely well camouflaged, four or five tents were built in the forest, and the surface was arranged with weeds, moss, and branches, almost blending in with the surrounding environment, even if Chu Jungui looked at first glance, it was possible to ignore the past.

There were three or four fighters crammed into each tent in the camp, adding up to about 20 people in total. Such a small number of troops is not enough to attack, more reconnaissance and containment.

Just as the patrolling warrior was about to return to the camp, Chu Jungui threw out the short knife in his hand and sank into his back.

The warrior threw himself to the ground, struggling only a few times before he was silent. However, even in the midst of a storm, this slight movement alarmed the soldiers in the camp.

"Who is it?" "Enemy attack!"

In the midst of shouting, they rushed out of the tent, but there was three red lights in sight.

Three grenades fired, landed exactly at three points, and exploded almost simultaneously. The shockwaves of the explosion stirred with each other, increasing their power exponentially. The fighters barely realized what was happening, and they were all turned into corpses.

"The face kill really works. Chu Jungui thought about it, so as to exclude all undue emotions.

He searched the corpses of the warriors, collected useful trophies, and finally used their own grenades to set several traps around the camp and quietly left.

He didn't go far before an explosion sounded behind Chu Jun's return, followed by a series of explosions.

Chu Jungui didn't look back, and walked straight to the camp. As long as it exceeds 100 meters, the storm will drown out all sounds, and no more explosions and screams can be heard.

He returned to the camp, silently put down the loot he had collected, and then turned and left.

"Wait a minute. Li Ruobai stopped him in the communication channel, and then rushed over and said, "I'll go with you." ”

"Don't you have your own mission?"

"Are you talking about planning the course of action and determining the relocation plan? ”

"You're so smart...... Ah, no, I mean, doesn't the plan need to be discussed with the colonel?"

Chu Jungui accidentally said that he had leaked his mouth. Fortunately, Li Ruobai didn't know if he didn't hear it or didn't care at all, so he didn't mention it again, and followed Chu Jungui out of the camp.

This time, Chu Jungui searched in a different direction, and Li Ruobai followed him honestly, without trying to show his combat ability again.

"Jungui, let's talk. ”

"I knew you didn't come out to fight. ”

"Why don't I want to fight? ”

"Did you come out on patrol with a broken leg?"

"How much better are your legs than mine?"

"Legs and legs are not the same. It was rare for the test subject to say philosophical words, and Li Ruobai was stunned in one fell swoop.

Li Ruobai also has his own pride, and in the face of facts, he disdains lying. But if you don't lie, you have to admit the truth, and both sides are in the same pain.

He decided to change the subject.

"Jun Gui, have you thought about your future in this way of fighting?"

"What is the salary?" a sentence choked Li Ruobai half to death.

"You are the man who defeated me Li Ruobai, can you not think about money every day!"

"How do you know I'm thinking about money?" Chu Jungui was puzzled.

"You ......" Li Ruobai wisely gave up the idea of bickering, quarreled with Chu Jungui, and was angry with him to death.

"Get down to business. ”

"Wasn't that the right thing just now?"

"It's not...... Shut up!" Li Ruobai couldn't bear it.

"Good. ”

After taking several deep breaths in a row, Li Ruobai calmed down his emotions and said, "I want to ask you a question, you must tell me the truth, did you save me because of my identity?"

Chu Jungui was silent.

Li Ruobai waited for a moment, sighed, and said lonely: "It's nothing, others may be able to see it, and it's not strange for you to see it." Anyway, you saved me after all, and I'm so grateful to you. Although I prefer that you don't know anything, you are willing to save me. ”

Chu Jungui felt that the topic was a little out of direction, and then looked at the article in the mission code that "provide detailed and truthful information to the mission objective as much as possible without affecting the completion of the mission", and decided to tell him the truth, although the logical component showed that this could cause mental trauma to Li Ruobai.

"I saved you because you were on my task list, although the position was a bit low. ”

"How low is the task list?"

"Minimum. ”

"Your task list is only me and Lin Xi, right? Ha! It's lower than her, I can accept it!" Li Ruobai became happy again.

But the next moment he received a heavy blow, "Between you, there are still 44 tasks. ”

Chu Jungui didn't speak, he still had a large amount of data that needed to be recompiled to generate components that could be loaded directly. The importance of each component seems to be higher than that of Li Ruobai. It's just that now it has accidentally fallen to an unmanned star, and there is no computing power that can be used, so that the compilation task is at a standstill.

Just when Li Ruobai was depressed, Chu Jungui asked again: "What status can a spaceship pilot have, and is the salary very high?"

The test subject really didn't know, and Li Ruobai suddenly became in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Of course the salary is not high, but it is enough for you to eat!"

"Really?" Chu Jun thought about his daily energy consumption.
