Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Long Night Ends
A blazing wind blew in their faces.
The whole forest had become a scorching hell, and the earth was full of cracks that had been scorched by the heat, like a wound on the ground; Inside these wounds, all of them were flowing with a hot liquid like magma.
The man who single-handedly created such a tragic scene was lying in a coma in the middle of hell.
The girls looked at the quiet world, and felt speechless, and all they could see and hear was the sound of the wind and the roaring fire in their ears.
In the distance, the remains of trees stood with teeth and claws, and the air was filled with the powder of coke blown away by the wind, as if the end was coming.
After a long while, Ji Chunzao suddenly said:
"Why is he naked again...... Last time we were on an alien planet," she muttered, "it's good that we both saw it." ”
"Now is not the time to talk about that."
Xie Yuzhi's tone was a little helpless.
"We're going to have to get him back."
"Oh yes! It's so hot on the ground, if you let him lie down again, maybe he will be roasted! ”
Only then did the curly-haired girl come back to her senses and ran towards the boy lying in the open space in a panic, Miss Xie didn't have time to grab her arm, and watched Ji Chunzao jump and jump all the way into the core area.
Fortunately, the heat inside is not as high as she imagined, just be careful not to step on the cracks that melt at the ultra-high temperature;
The most amazing thing is that although the closer they get to the center, the more they feel the heat, but when they actually reach the core, the temperature around them drops off a cliff.
She walked to Yan Jingxing's side, leaned over, reached out to touch the young man's skin, and found that the sensation was just normal warmth, and there was no sign of heat.
This made Xie Yuzhi breathe a sigh of relief, at least proving that he was not burned by the nearby heat.
"Speaking ......"
Miss Xie raised her head and looked around.
Within a radius of several hundred meters, all signs of life were completely cut off, and the sky was reddened by fierce light; But as long as she looked far away, she could see that the fire had not spread as far away as she had expected.
The release of ultra-high temperatures in such an area is naturally easy to think of whether it will cause a forest fire. However, once the temperature reaches a certain limit, when all the combustibles in the range turn into fly ash in the blink of an eye, the fire will not burn.
"Hey!"
Ji Chunzao grabbed Yan Jingxing's shoulders and tried to lift him up, but because of his lack of strength, he almost slipped his hand and made him fall, so he could only look up at Xie Yuzhi pitifully.
"You...... Don't be in such a hurry, just move the two of us together. ”
Ji Chunzao had already turned over the boy who was lying on the ground in a coma and held his shoulders; Xie Yuzhi naturally walked up to Yan Jingxing, intending to lift his feet.
Because of the angle, she quickly discovered the ...... "that problem".
"Ugh."
Why do you think this scene is a bit familiar?
This is the second time...... Xie Yuzhi had the urge to cover her face and sigh.
Although she really didn't want to deliberately look at the place between the other party's legs, for a young girl in her prime, this organ was too conspicuous, and she had to move people away, so it was impossible not to see her eyes on it.
…… It's a little embarrassing.
No, it's very embarrassing.
She was so embarrassed that she thought that she might be waiting for Yan Jingxing to wake up, and she would not want to look at his face for a while.
“…… Let's find something to cover it up. Such...... It's a bit unsightly. ”
After hesitating for a while, Xie Yuzhi still said so.
"You take your clothes off."
"Eh~"
Ji Chunzao's face puffed up.
"Can't you?"
"I'm wearing a skirt, how do I take it off? If you take it off, it will become as smooth as Jingxing! She replied angrily.
"But why...... Ah, I see, you don't want to see that...... That caterpillar! ”
Ji Chunzao showed a sudden expression, and finally understood the situation. She patted her chest and said that she was a true righteous person.
"Then close your eyes, I'll show the way!"
At this time, Miss Xie was thinking about another thing:
I didn't expect that they were all middle school students, and it was too childish for someone to call the boy's place "caterpillar"? It's a little funny and it's not so funny, she can't figure out if she's supposed to laugh or not.
However, it is precisely because of Chunzao's naïve and straightforward character that he feels that the defense of men and women does not matter, and this chic attitude is undoubtedly very enviable......
At this moment, Xie Yuzhi noticed the subtle change in the expression on Ji Chunzao's face, and his heart moved slightly.
The bright light around her illuminated her entire little face red, Xie Yuzhi almost missed it, this girl didn't think it didn't matter, obviously there was a gorgeous flush on both cheeks, and the gaze cast on Yan Jingxing's body was also erratic.
Therefore, the seemingly refreshing reaction just now was just a hard mouth.
After realizing this, Xie Yuzhi felt really funny now.
"Poof."
"Y-What are you laughing at?"
Miss Xie covered her lips lightly, her eyebrows and eyes curved.
She let go of her worries.
Today is an important day, Yan Jingxing went to the death to save her and fight to the death to protect them; And Xie Yuzhi took this opportunity to see clearly the position occupied by the boy in his heart.
The burning pain still lingered deep in his chest at the moment.
There are no secrets from each other and nothing is unacceptable to them.
So she shook her head and replied.
"It's too dangerous to keep your eyes closed, so I'll ...... It's good to assume that you didn't see it. ”
……
Wait until the two of them carefully move Yan Jingxing out of the scorched area. Another ten minutes passed. By the time they reached a safe and windy shade, both girls were exhausted and collapsed.
But to be honest, they were able to hold on to this moment without losing consciousness, and they were already far beyond their limits.
Even Ji Chunzao felt strange: she really didn't look like herself, where did she get such good physical strength and patience? She used to be the most afraid of hardship and tiredness.
At this point, Xie Yuzhi naturally couldn't take care of her usual demeanor, she sat on the ground panting, and rested shoulder to shoulder with her friends.
At this moment, she heard the sound of slight footsteps not far away, and received familiar thought signals.
"You're still alive."
Xie Yuzhi turned her head and saw a black dog limping towards them. The dog had two heads on its neck, one drooping down, and half of the other was almost burned out.
Xie Yuzhi almost forgot that it existed.
It was fateful, it was not killed by the group of black-clothed people and the leading werewolves, it was not sucked into the sky by the storm created by the prey king, although it was covered in wounds and scorched marks, it looked miserable, but for those with self-healing ability of the broken head, it was nothing.
"Thank you. I don't know how to get Daddy out without you......"
Then, it wasn't until this time that Xie Yuzhi remembered that Yan Jingxing, who was unconscious, could completely let this "soldier" under his control carry it.
Yes...... Never mind. She thought, and there was no frustration.
After all, that's all for later.
Now she just wants to sit here, do nothing, think nothing.
……
A few faint pillars of light pierced through the thick night and cast over the winding mountain road.
Xie Yuzhi squinted his eyes and saw several cars parked near them, and the people who got off the cars were rushing towards them.
She saw the familiar silhouette of the person running at the front, and then realized that it was her father with an anxious face.
"Chunzao, it's okay, we can go back......"
Xie Yuzhi turned her head and found that the curly-haired girl had fallen on Yan Jingxing, who was lying on the ground, and the two fell asleep together.
She couldn't help but laugh, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her body began to sway, and she was about to fall asleep.
This long night is finally over.
*
Yan Jingxing unleashed a blow of heat from his whole body, igniting the atmosphere into a plasma state, permanently changing the appearance of the plot, and allowing the people lurking in the shadows to witness the power of the body.
"It works great."
The voice on the other side of the phone did not feel any regret for the death of her soldiers, on the contrary, she was feeling joy and excitement about it.
"Compared to the truly recognized soldiers, the soldiers produced in batches in the laboratory are just cannon fodder. In the past, there was no opportunity for the two to stand in the ring, but now people can finally see direct evidence......"
"Well, I see what you mean. Not only the amount of destructive power, but also whether it can be used as a weapon or in future wars are not what I originally considered. The 'modification' achieved by the genetic surgery of animals on Earth is nothing more than an inferior imitation of living machinery. Prototypes are the crowning achievement of alien biotechnology, and all this knowledge is now hidden in the fog...... Can you imagine its value to us, to all of humanity, once it is excavated? ”
"Yes. I'm sure - in that body there is the secret that will take humanity to the next stage of the evolutionary ladder. ”
"So, please give it a trip. There must be a secret in that town that we don't know yet. ”
"The committee has degenerated, and in them, the pursuit of ideals and long-cherished aspirations has passed, and the organization has become a tool they use to fight for power and profit—the only person I can ask for is you, 'Captain.'"
