Catalog 222 Suspicion
Since the Great Tribulation, humanity has gradually counterattacked from the brink of destruction and finally recaptured large swathes of territory.
Recognized as the world's number one power, there is no doubt that Shenzhou, which has inherited most of the ancient civilization's technology, and then the Tianwu Kingdom, which advocates force, is still famous in the Eastern world.
In the Western world, the strongest human nations are the Anglo-French Union and the Free Alliance.
The Free Alliance is a coalition of 63 small countries, which has been purged for hundreds of years before finally consolidating its political power and setting its capital in a city called Guran.
Gulen is home to the most advanced research institutes in the entire alliance, where technical personnel recruited from all over the country will be able to show their talents.
Among them, the scientist named Karlov is the most famous.
Karloff's office is located on the top floor of the research area, and even government officials cannot see him at will, and to the outside world, he is a legend full of mysteries.
At the same time that Bai Ye and the others eliminated the magician, there was a terrible scream in the real yĆ n room located in the hidden space, in the room, a young man rolled down from the chair in pain, his right hand pressed on the door of his head, and not far in front of him, there was a blonde man in a white coat, he was the owner of this room - Karloff.
"What's wrong?" Karloff walked quickly, a layer of mist slowly filling his body, and when this layer of fog dissipated, it was the man named Doctor who had been the culprit who had caused the war on Dongying Island.
"It hurts...... My doppelganger was killed, damn it, that was the last one. The young man who stood up from the ground had the same appearance as the magician, but it also had a little more human flavor, "I remember, it seems to have been sent to the ruins of the night capital, could it be that Ling Xiu killed it?" "Impossible, that extradilist is just a contractor, relying on that group of puppet weapons that are not afraid of death, and your doppelganger can easily control them." The doctor narrowed his eyes and let out a rare sigh, things have really not been going well recently, and the battle of Dongying Island was lost inexplicably, and he originally wanted to use the black dove to blow up at least half of the elite of Shenzhou, but the end was a complete victory for mankind.
"No matter how bad it is, it still has 80% of your power. The doctor put his hand on the magician's sweaty forehead, looking confused.
"But the fact is that I was killed, and, one thing is strange, my doppelganger was sent out for about a year, and he never came back to return to his life, and now it's okay, and even his life is involved, but before I finally cut off contact, I received a message from him. The magician walked over to the table, picked up a bottle of mineral water, and poured it into his mouth, moistening his dry throat, "Subject 190 is still alive. "Subject 190?" Something was slowly waking up in the dusty memory, and the Doctor's already furrowed brow tightened even more, "We all thought she was dead. "Judging by the time, she should be an adult woman in her early twenties now, which is not good news, and we have always thought that the biggest obstacle is Ye Chengcheng. The magician threw the empty bottle in the trash and unscrewed another one, "Now, there's one more." "Yes...... The only people from Utopia are you and me, and our companions have all been killed by that crazy woman in Ye Chengcheng, not only can we not go back, but even if we live, we have to be careful. The Doctor turned and walked over to the map on the table, which seemed to mark a mountain range, "But I won't give up, the mission given to us must be completed." "Ling Xiu is still alive...... the magician stomped his foot in annoyance, in their plan, Ling Xiu should have died a year ago, of course, no one would have thought that for more than a year, Ling Xiu had lived a life of reincarnation.
"Let's put it aside for the time being, assuming that Subject 190 and Ling Xiu join forces, we can't take it lightly. The Doctor's finger moved to the place where the map was marked, and tapped, "Why don't you kill the guy hiding here first." "Aren't you afraid that Ye Tingcheng will be mad?" The magician couldn't help but tremble just thinking of the figure of that female monster, once upon a time, Utopia sent a group of more than fifty people into the human world, each of whom had the strength of no less than a magician, but that's it, Ye Tingcheng unceremoniously hunted all the way, turning them all into a pile of garbage.
"I'm going to do it very covertly, and this time, my role is just to convey information, and the people who can do it will be human beings themselves. A flash of light flashed in the doctor's eyes, and his face changed back to the blonde Karloff, and then, there was a knock on the door of the real yĆ n room, "Mr. Karloff, it's Mr. Bit from the Special Search Bureau, they are already preparing to leave for Yunhu Mountain, and they want to come and get some equipment." "Outside the door is a young and beautiful female researcher, who is also a doctor-specific female secretary, and as a high-ranking utopian race, it seems that she also needs the comfort of human women.
"Got it. The doctor straightened his collar and walked to the door, the magician behind him vanishing.
In the ruins of the night capital, Bai Ye and the others were enjoying a big meal, compared to what they ate when they first came to the realm, this time Ling Xiu also spent a lot of money, in order to celebrate the elimination of the magician.
"So, I found out that he can use things like radio waves to corrupt the puppet girls, so he specially prepared a shielding trap that can block the transmission of information and radio waves. Ling Xiu was dancing and showing off his magical little inventions, that naughty child's appearance seemed to Xiao Ai, it had been a long time since she had seen it, and in the countless five days that she had forgotten about it, Ling Xiu had endured so much pain, she could fully imagine, "You are a proud master." "Hey, Xiao Ai, what were you talking about just now?" Ling Xiu's ears seemed to become particularly sensitive at this time, and he turned his head to ask, Xiao Ai shook his head without blushing and without a heartbeat, "I didn't say anything. "Could it be that I heard it wrong...... the genius scientist once again introduced the gadget to Bai Ye and the others who were sitting opposite, with a skeptical mood.
There are some things that don't need words.
Xiao Ai silently looked at Ling Xiu's back, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, in human terms, her current mood is probably happy.
"The magician is dead, but his words before he died are completely confusing, what test subject 190, and besides, who killed him...... That powerful monster is only a matter of minutes. Bai Ye sat between Yun Yi and Bai Ruoyan, the food on the plate hadn't moved much, and there were too many questions bothering him.
"Xiaobai, ah~~~" Bai Ruoyan picked up a piece of barbecue meat with a fork and handed it to Bai Ye's mouth, who swallowed it helplessly, in exchange for Bai Ruoyan's doting touch, "Xiaobai just ate what I fed with my own hands, I hate it, how can people make such shy movements~" Yun Yi ignored this scene as a matter of course, and the chopsticks in her hand flicked the bowl of fried sword beans closest to her, "At least, the person who killed the magician should be on our side, right?" No one can guarantee the true position of the guy from an unknown source, but I think of a possibility. Regarding Yun Yi's speculation, Bai Ye's thoughts drifted to what happened not long ago, "Sister, do you remember the man in black who rescued you in Liucheng?" "Huh?" Bai Ruoyan, who was about to hand over another piece of barbecue meat, was slightly stunned, and then shrugged her shoulders in confusion, "Who knows, besides, I don't know that guy either." "I always feel that the man in black who appeared that time was to protect the old lady, and perhaps, this time it will be the same person." But it was only speculation, and after a pointless argument, dinner was over.
Luo Yunxiu quietly called Nia outside, in a remote place.
"What's the matter, sneaky. Nia, who is a knight, is full of prejudice and dissatisfaction with Luo Yunxiu, and she doesn't really want to come to his private appointment, but seeing the other party's rare solemn expression, she still reluctantly went to the appointment.
"Hey, Armored Woman, I'm going to ask you a question. ā
"Don't give me that strange nickname!" Nia immediately repudiated the nickname given by Luo Yunxiu, and then looked around at the empty surroundings, "What questions need to be avoided by my lord and the others." "This question is something that only you who have experienced reincarnation can answer me, as for Bai Ye, he is not suitable to answer. Luo Yunxiu waved his hand, looking determined, "But these are not important, what I want to ask is, in the five reincarnations we have experienced, have you ever seen Bai Ruoyan killed?" "Hey?" It was probably an unexpected question, Nia instinctively paused there, "You said Ruoyan...... This, there should be one......" was asked like this, and Nia herself discovered a problem, in the five reincarnations, there was no memory of Bai Ruoyan dying directly in front of her eyes, and even, several times, she didn't notice her save.
"Why are you asking this?" Nia asked solemnly as she met Luo Yunxiu's sharp gaze.
"Curiosity, and suspicion...... Five times of reincarnation, I haven't seen her killed, and then, when the magician was killed, all of us were unconscious, except for you, at that time, did you see Bai Ruoyan?"
"I saw Ruoyan's clothes under the rubble!"
"Only clothes?"
"Yes...... Clothes corner ......"
"That is to say, you didn't see Bai Ruoyan unconscious on the ground with your own eyes. ā
"Wait, you don't mean to say that Ruoyan solved the magician, she is a powerless woman!" "Maybe it's because of the terrible first impression effect, no one has ever associated Bai Ruoyan with the word powerful, it's more crazy, brother-controlled and doting younger brother without discipline.
All in all, Bai Ruoyan can be called a weirdo, but she will definitely not have a half-dime relationship with the strong.
"I said it, it's just a suspicion, Bai Ye should also be aware of these details, but he instinctively ignored it, because of the work of family affection, he unconditionally trusted that crazy woman...... Don't bring it up in front of them. Once there is doubt, you can't stop, Luo Yunxiu forcibly suppressed the curiosity in his heart, if his conjecture is correct, Bai Ruoyan is a strong man who has been hidden for a long time, then ......
"Isn't it interesting?" laughing to himself, Luo Yunxiu stepped on the moonlight and disappeared into the ruins.
For a long time, Nia, who was standing in place, shook her head, how could there be such a ridiculous thing, it should be Luo Yunxiu's idiot who was too worried.
In the resting room, Yun Yi, who was lying on the bed early, was flipping through a novel that had been dug out of Ling Xiu's warehouse, passing the time before going to bed, when the door was pushed open, and Bai Ruoyan, who was wearing pajamas, walked in, "Didn't you say to go to the toilet? Why is it so long!" Yun Yi stared at the dishonest sister in front of him vigilantly, "Oh...... By the way, take a walk. "It's not going to attack Bai Ye at night. "Utterly distrustful, questioning tone.
"No, Xiaobai is not in the room......" covered her lips suddenly, but she was already exposed, and Bai Ruoyan hung her head in frustration.
"You guy...... I really didn't notice you like this for a while, please be like a sister, be mature. ā
"I know~ go to bed early!" Bai Ruoyan threw herself on the bed, directly tightened the quilt, and soon a rhythmic snoring sounded.
I don't know if it's pretending to be asleep or really so tired, Yun Yi sometimes really thinks that Bai Ruoyan is not so heartless by nature, and she doesn't care about anything except Bai Ye's affairs.
"I'm glad you have a younger brother. Turning off the light, Yun Yi lay down in the quilt and closed her eyes......
At the same time, Bai Ye did not fall asleep, but came outside, on a sloping ruined building, there was a smaller figure sitting there, two delicate little legs swaying in the air, looking up at the brilliant starry sky overhead, it was impossible to see such a beautiful starry sky in the bustling city and some areas with harsh environments.
"Sitting here alone and looking at the stars, are you such a romantic person?" Bai Ye stepped on the outer wall of the ruins, and soon jumped to the top, and the prayer sitting there turned his head with a slight surprise, "Bai Ye, you haven't slept yet?" "I need to think about something." He sat down next to Qiyu and dusted off the dust on his trouser legs, "It's you, you should have fallen asleep a long time ago, why are you here, you are acting more and more like a human girl." "I'm thinking about it too...... Well...... That's right, think!" Qi Yu was afraid that Bai Ye would not believe it, and repeated the word thinking on both sides.
"Is it because I'm hiding my true plan and I'm angry?" Bai Ye's face didn't show any introspection and guilt at all.
"No...... Bai Ye, your approach must be correct, and keeping it secret from us is also for the success of the battle, I was just thinking, I don't know where the road to Utopia is, and besides, there may be people as powerful as magicians along the way, can I make it to the end alive, or can I continue to protect you?" Qi Yu was undoubtedly full of confidence when she first stepped into the human world, but more and more strong people followed, making her understand that even if they were as powerful as dragons, there would be humans who were difficult to defeat.
"I'm not strong enough, but Bai Ye, you, are already many times stronger than when we first met. "I still remember the cunning human who was full of tricks when we first met, and now that I think about it, I have a feeling of nostalgia.
"That's what worries you?"
"We made a deal, you take me to Utopia, and I protect you. ā
"It's okay, I'll still take you to utopia, whether it's an unknown realm, or a powerful enemy, if one of us can't defeat it, we will gather everyone's strength, maybe this kind of speech is not my style, but I still want to tell you, no problem, pray, we will continue to grow stronger with each other, and when we feel powerless, we will rely on the people around us...... What's more, your ideals are so distant and great, and they have just begun. Bai Ye reached out and stroked Qi Yu's smooth black hair, not noticing Qi Yu's sudden stiffening body.
It's a feeling I've never felt before.
No, there have been intermittent appearances before.
Restless.
Slightly faster heartbeat and breathing.
In addition, the peace of mind and joy when Bai Ye's head was touched.
I'm getting weird......
The prayer sighed secretly.
