After passing through the dark corridor and passing through two squares of similar size, the four of Bai Donggu finally stopped in front of a metal gate.

"This is it, it's a bit messy inside, I hope you two don't mind."

Bai Donggu smiled and reached out to grasp the wheel of the metal gate.

The door didn't seem to be locked, but simply snapped on, with a slight click of the roulette wheel.

Before Bai Donggu could fully open the door, thick smoke rushed out of the door, accompanied by a pungent smell of smoke, which made 659 and 173 frown.

"Are the people in this door doing indoor barbecue? Why is it so big ......?"

"Ahem......"

Bai Donggu also seemed to be choked, coughed twice, and threw an apologetic look at 659 and 173 behind him.

"Lao Bai, you're back, how are Xiao Xiao and Shui Han?"

The whispering of a tiger's inquiry reached the ears of several people at the door through the smoke and smoke.

In this smoky room, there was a big living person.

"They are fine, I asked Xiao Xiao to take Shui Han to rest, and a civilian was affected by the spiritual shock and died on the spot."

Bai Donggu stood by the door, as if he wanted to wait for the smoke in the room to dissipate, but the ventilation in the ground was obviously not as good as he thought, so after a few seconds, he still walked into the house with a slight frown.

"A dead civilian? Fuck ......."

With a click, a small cluster of orange-yellow firelight lit up in the room, dispelling the darkness inside the room, reflecting a chubby face with a scruffy beard.

In the firelight, the fat-faced owner did not cast his eyes towards the door, but concentrated on lighting the cigarette in his mouth with the lighter in his hand.

"Smoke less, this tobacco is very harmful to the body......"

Bai Donggu said as he walked towards the house, for him, the presence or absence of light did not seem to matter, even in a completely dark place, his movement would not be restricted in the slightest.

The firelight quickly retracted its head like a frightened turtle, and the not spacious room was plunged into darkness again, with only an orange-red point of light flickering in front of everyone.

"I'll smoke it, don't fuck me, I'm twittering like a bitch......"

The temper of the people in the house seems to be very bad, although it does not reach the point of "dirty" in the mouth, but the words still make people who are not familiar with it feel very uncomfortable.

It's like a mountain king who burns and loots, and if he is a little uncomfortable, his head and your body will say goodbye forever.

"Xia Feng, the twenty-second corps is gone."

The clicking sound came from the darkness again, only this time it was not the lighter that the people in the room used to light cigarettes, but Bai Donggu lit the oil lamp resting on the corner of the table.

The blue-yellow light gradually brightened, and soon everything in the room was reflected.

659 and 173 naturally turned their attention to the position where the fat face had appeared before, and under the reflection of the oil lamp, a fat man with a stubble on his face reclined in a chair, staring blankly at the ceiling, smoking the cigarette in his hand one after another.

After hearing the news that the corps was gone, the fat man did not sigh or show sadness, but asked with a scolding scolding.

"Damn, why not?"

"Shadow Bugs."

In just three words, the sturdy fat man in the room stopped smoking.

"Shadow bugs? Damn, how did you meet this shit, no

Isn't the non-commissioned officer of the 22nd Corps Hu Tengye? Although it is only a fourth-order ability, the military rank is a real golden first-class, plus Xiao Gu's two human-faced lizards, they should be able to withdraw......"

The fat man with a scruffy beard seemed very annoyed, and asked in an unkind tone.

"The 22nd Corps encountered a swarm of shadow insects with a royal branch, and in order to buy time for the evacuation of the two elders, all of them were killed."

Bai Donggu added, Xiao is a middle-level general like him who is used to seeing life and death, and when he said the news, there was inevitably a trace of trilling in his tone.

"Shadow Worm King, hum!"

A flash of divine light flashed in the fat man's empty eyes, accompanied by a sword-like killing intent.

But it didn't last long, the man seemed to think of something, the killing intent in his eyes dissipated with that little divine light, the cigarette in his hand was still burning, but the person who smoked had stopped talking.

The fat man seemed to not want to see Bai Donggu and the others, turned his head, and looked at the mottled wall on the side in silence.

"Just sit down."

Bai Donggu seemed to understand the fat man's temper very well, and did not continue to say anything, but pulled out a chair from under the table and sat on it.

Pouring out two cups of water from the kettle on the side, Bai Donggu's movements in his hand paused, thought for a moment, took out the third cup, and poured half a cup into it.

Just as Bai Donggu was pouring water, 659 carefully looked at the fat man sitting on the chair.

Although the man's body looks very bloated at first glance, his bare arms are not pampered with fine skin and tender flesh, and the scars of different thicknesses on it seem to be silent stories, silently telling the past deeds of fat men.

On the fat man's knee was covered with a not very thick blanket, which was covered with a thin layer of soot, and the surface of the burgundy blanket was also burned by the sparks of cigarettes, showing sloppiness and dilapidation.

In the course of his observations, 659 noticed that the fat man's blanket was empty under what should have been his calves, as if Qi Qi had disappeared from his knees.

"Is it a veteran......"

659 muttered to himself in an inaudible voice, and in Timeline 659, humanity fought a protracted battle with the other two races.

There are always casualties in war, and there are more wounded and crippled soldiers in war than those Terran heroes who died.

Most of the wounds can be healed, and with the help of mechanical prosthetics, these warriors can still return to normal human life.

However, a small number of wounds can never heal for various reasons.

Like the toxins of some kind of alien beast, although the warriors can save their lives after the battle, the toxins in the wounds can never be removed.

Wounded warriors will re-experience the torture of wounds for the rest of their lives, but the constitution of the enhancer does not allow them to die to relieve them, and this way of living is simply more uncomfortable than death.

It seemed that he had noticed 659's observation of the fat man's gaze, and Bai Donggu's face had a hint of expression, and he spoke.

"Let me introduce you, this one's military rank is the first class of diamonds, and he is the guard of the Z-J dungeon, Xu Xiafeng......"

Before Bai Donggu could finish speaking, the fat man interrupted in a dull voice.

"Heh, what Wei, Lao Tzu is just a useless disabled person, you talk about yours, don't talk about Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is going to sleep."

As he spoke, the fat man's right thumb and index finger twisted slightly, and he directly extinguished the cigarette butt that was still burning, and after throwing it on the ground, he really lay down on the chair and fell asleep.

Seeing Xu Xiafeng's appearance, Bai Donggu's mouth opened

Zhang, but after all, he still didn't say anything.

Seeing that the atmosphere was silent again, 659 spoke.

"Let me introduce myself, both of us are cross-border Elders, and since we both look the same and have the same name, we can use the timeline we came from as an alternative to the name for ease of distinction."

As he spoke, 659 pointed to 173 and then to himself.

"He's 173 from Timeline 173, and I'm 659 from Timeline 659."

"173 and 659, I made a note of it."

Bai Donggu nodded, signaled that he had written down the code names of the two, and spoke.

"Before we talk, I want to check 173's body first, I wonder if it's okay?"

It seemed that he didn't expect Bai Donggu to suddenly make such a request, and 659 was also stunned in place, and swept his gaze to 173 on the side.

"Check the body? How to check? Stripped naked for you to touch? ”

173 scratched his head, his nerves had been in a tense state since the previous incident, and the high level of tension and mental impact made it seem that his whole body was wooden, and it seemed that he couldn't turn around.

"Oh, that's not necessary, just put your palm on mine."

As he spoke, Bai Donggu tore off the white gloves on his left hand, spread his five fingers evenly, and placed them in front of 173.

"Oh, I see, White General...... Mid-level generals...... Presumably, General Bai is a third-order or higher Brain Domain Enhancement Ability, right? ”

173 cooperatively stretched out his left hand in front of Bai Donggu's palm, and said while pressing down.

"That's right, a fourth-order brain domain enhancement ability is currently serving as a mid-level general in the Z-J dungeon, with a military rank of the transcendent third rank."

Looking at the white winter bones that his eyes were slowly closed, 659 silently recited a sentence in his heart.

The rank of military rank is a new system officially established after the outbreak of the cataclysm to measure the strength of soldiers.

Within Timeline 659, there are seven ranks: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Transcendental, and King.

Except for the lowest rank of bronze and the highest rank of king, the remaining five ranks are divided into three ranks, of which the third rank is the lowest and the first rank is the highest.

The lowest rank, that is, a soldier who has just joined the army or an ordinary person who is still in the reserve, has a bronze rank.

As long as he has killed a secondary infected, or has made a meritorious contribution to the army, Bronze can be successfully promoted to the third rank of silver.

Upward, it is the second class of silver, and even the first class of silver.

When a Silver Class Warrior has once again achieved outstanding feats, he will continue to be promoted to the Gold Rank and receive a higher rank rating.

Each rank has different requirements, such as the number of combat achievements or the number of kills, and only if all the requirements are met can you successfully advance.

Among them, the level above the extraordinary, in addition to meeting the necessary promotion conditions, there is also a very strict point.

That is, this rank rating can only be held by those with the ability of the Brain Domain Enhancement Department.

After all, fighting is not fighting, and the victory that can be obtained by brute force alone is really pitiful, unless the disparity in strength is really a bit excessive, otherwise there is no wise man to give advice in the back, and no matter how strong the warrior is on the battlefield, he can only exert less than fifty percent of his combat power on the battlefield.

However, due to the scarcity of people with the ability to strengthen the brain domain, there are only a handful of people who can become generals in timeline 659.

And the silver-haired Bai Donggu in front of him was a genuine fourth-order brain domain enhancement ability......
