The icy wind swept through the world with snowflakes, and there was nothing but cold and darkness.

In this polar night blizzard, Lu Mingfei did not continue to consume his own little physical strength, he found a dead fir and chopped it with his bare hands as firewood, and now rests on a low slope that can shelter from the wind.

Some people say that in the wild, the flame ignited by the fire is the most primitive TV of human beings, Lu Mingfei stared at the flame burning strong in the cold, and the blasphemous memory of "himself" who was corrupted and degraded by the demon of Slaanesh still kept emerging.

This may also be in the calculation of the Slaanesh demon, but now Lu Mingfei has not been affected by this. He calmly examines the people "he" knew before the Fall, and the other defiled people, except for his own parents, are almost all familiar faces.

It stands to reason that he shouldn't have such a deep relationship with them, just like Chen Motong, he only met the other party once on that yacht, and didn't say a few words, even if the demon of Slaanesh was a fantasy fabricated with his own memory, the other one should not be so obsessed with her and never forget.

And then there's Eri Uesugi, the unstable child who has a high proportion of dragon blood, and who has a picture of herself crying helplessly in the cold well in her as she is held during the battle.

Is this a picture of the future? After all, the genetic prototype Saint Celes has this special psionic ability, and maybe he inherited a little.

No, no, he asked himself that he would never cry helplessly as he appeared in the picture - he would probably pray sadly that the emperor would shelter the poor child's soul, and then vent his anger on the child's murderer.

…… What would that be?

Lu Mingfei suddenly felt something, his left arm was reflexively raised, and the barrel of the double-linked explosive gun stretched out of the muscle bundle and ejected to aim at the darkness of the wind and snow howling outside the firelight.

"Don't shoot, commander! It's me! There was a panicked cry in the darkness.

Fingal? The familiar voice made Lu Mingfei stunned, but he still didn't put his arm down: "You need to show your loyalty and identity to Emperor Praise." ”

"Now? Well, Captain, do you want to listen to the chanting or singing? ”

“…… Follow. ”

The man in the darkness cleared his throat and tried to sing loudly in the voice of a concert tenor:

"How brilliant ~ the mighty emperor ~ as if the sun was brilliant ......"

"Stop, it's okay."

Lu Mingfei stopped the out-of-tune singing of the emperor's version of "My Sun", and it would be a bit blasphemous to continue singing. But it's really the Fingal brothers, rightly – at least in terms of performance.

After several times of demonic supernatural powers, after hard fighting, they returned to this dark snowfield, and it was not even clear whether it was reality, and in the absence of a built-in friend or foe identification signal in the power armor, they could only rely on this way to confirm the identity of the other party.

Fingal, who was wrapped in an old-fashioned Soviet military coat and covered in snow, walked into the range of the firelight, and almost ran over to give Lu Mingfei a hug with tears in his eyes, but after seeing Lu Mingfei's black scale armor that only became colder on the outside of his body, he still put the military coat on his body first...... Then he hugged Lu Mingfei with tears in his eyes:

"Captain, I've finally found you! You don't know how hard I've been looking for you......"

Renata...... How is Zero and Bunin doing now? Lu Mingfei did not refuse Fingal's crying hug and asked his current most concerned questions.

"I don't know!" Fingal told Lu Mingfei about his experience with a blank face, and when he suddenly went crazy and rushed into the darkness, as a good brother and comrade-in-arms, he followed without thinking about it, but he lost it not long after, and wanted to return to the ship the same way, but the boat was gone.

The passage of time that he had captured with his senses had passed at least four days since Lu Mingfei left the group, and in those four days, he could only wander in this blizzard looking for Lu Mingfei or the hovercraft, and he had persevered until now relying on the half-breed physique that had undergone the first stage of transformation, the old Soviet military coat on his body, and the chocolates in his pockets.

"Anyway, Captain, why did you suddenly start going crazy? It's not like you at all! Fingal asked with concern.

“…… Caught in the trap. It's okay now. ”

Lu Mingfei didn't reveal too much, and could only be glad that he was in a dark rage at that time, and he rushed into the darkness in front of him instead of looking back and saw four "Horus".

"Okay...... So what do we do now? This weather is freezing me to death. Fingal leaned close to the fire, the warmth of the flame giving him a sense of relief for the rest of his life. Although he has the "Jun Yan" spell, this can't be used as a lighter, and this extremely cold condition draws qi and blood instead of the fire element, and if there is no food to replenish energy in the future, Jun Yan will only die faster.

"Kill the demons first, if I'm not mistaken, we're already trapped in this unknown Nibelungen by them." Lu Mingfei added a piece of firewood to the fire.

"And demons? Wasn't that crow demon who was the ultimate insult to Old Tang burned to ashes by the Emperor Divine Sword in your hand, Commander? Fingal's eyes widened.

“…… It's not clear how it survived. And there is a new demon, belonging to one of the Chaos Evil Gods, 'Slaanesh', who is now most likely hiding in this Nibelungen, brewing some kind of conspiracy. Lu Mingfei said in a deep voice.

"Hiss...... 'Slaanesh' demon, that sounds bad for me!" Fingal was shocked, then saw Lu Mingfei's eyes and hurriedly waved his hand to clarify, "It's the vice principal!" It's the inappropriate things that his old pervert sees, and I just have to be reluctant to watch him for a while sometimes...... I am absolutely loyal to Eva! ”

"Then you'd better not think about those things next, and don't give the demon a chance to get in...... But the good news is that the Emperor's light is shining again in this darkness. Lu Mingfei said in a deep voice, and a hazy golden light appeared on the surface of the scale armor—that was the power of faith.

"Okay, well, according to the Holy Light of the God Emperor, even those two-headed demons must not be able to stop you, the head of the group!" Fingal showed his optimism again.

“…… Do you have food on you? After being silent for a long time, Lu Mingfei asked. While it is still unclear whether the battle journey of purifying the nine thousand Xenomorphs and degrading himself is a fantasy or reality, his body does express to him the hunger that he desperately needs to be fed.

"No, I came out with three chocolates, and I've eaten them all," Fingal said, "I didn't see any polar bears or any other animals that could eat along the way, or I could have dragged one over and we'd roast it." He glanced at his thighs and asked tentatively, "Why don't I cut a piece of thigh meat for the head of the regiment first, and you will have a stomach first?" I can still grow it anyway......"

"Thanks, Brother Fingal, but not yet." Lu Mingfei waved his hand, he was not hungry enough to gnaw on his brother's thigh meat.

He grabbed a handful of white snow from the ground and stuffed it into his mouth, and moistened his throat with the cold snow water that had melted from his body temperature: "If it wasn't for the direct attack of the demon, the people on the hovercraft should not worry for the time being, after realizing that there is an abnormality in the space they are in, they may rest in place, and the gasoline and food on the ship are enough for them to support them for a while." ”

"What about us? Can the Emperor's Light fill our bellies? Fingal asked.

"It's up to us to see if we can find the bunkers that store food, or if there's any living creatures to send us to refuel." Lu Mingfei grabbed a branch and scribbled a sketchy map on the snow according to his vague memory, planning to wait for a short period of dawn and a little more visibility to find the bunker where the supplies were stored.

Even Astarte needs to eat to replenish energy, and the power armor of the average warrior will be equipped with a high-energy nutrient solution, plus the preset stomach implanted in the body, whether it is fragrant or smelly, as long as it can enter the stomach, it can make Astarte continue to fight for a long time without supplies, and Lu Mingfei did not gnaw on the corpse of the charred worm during the service of the Weeper Clan.

"I seem to hear the sound of bells......" Fingal suddenly became alert, looking in a certain direction in the dark snowfield beyond the firelight.

"Hmm." Lu Mingfei also heard the faint sound of the bell in the whistling wind and snow, staring at the end of the darkness like someone lighting a match, the fire became brighter and brighter, and his extraordinary vision had captured that in the firelight, there were four reindeer more than two meters tall pulling a sleigh towards here.

"Santa Claus is coming?" This was Fingal's first reaction, and then he rubbed his eyes to confirm that it was not an illusion, and suddenly there was a burst of ecstasy, just like Luffy's eyes lit up in "One Piece": Isn't meat just delivered to the door!?

"Jingle Bell Bell ......" Tall reindeer shake their heads, fist-sized bells around their necks jingle and drive their sleighs with high-powered searchlights hanging from their towed sleighs......

He was really wearing a red festive Santa Claus robe.

Lu Mingfei wrapped his military coat tightly to cover the black scales on the surface of his body, and also covered the muzzle of the explosive rifle that ejected from the prosthetic body of his left arm.

Could it be a demonic trap?

The "Christmas Sleigh" stopped about a few dozen meters away from the fire of Lu Mingfei and Fingal, and the reindeer seemed to be frightened by Lu Mingfei's murderous aura and did not dare to move on.

"Is it Mr. Lu Mingfei? Finally found you! Santa Claus on the sleigh spoke in Chinese in a young voice, "I have no ill intentions!" It was Chairman Lu Lincheng who asked me to come and pick you up! ”
