Chapter 12: Parting at the End
"Okay, then I'll talk about the specifics of our organization. If there is something unclear, just ask. Obviously, Li Xiaotian not only wanted Qi Yanke to join the organization, but also wanted Su Qiqi to join together.
Although Su Qiqi didn't show any ability on the surface, she believed that it was definitely not a coincidence that the monster didn't hit her last time and injured herself.
She smiled and pulled out the chair under the table, the legs of the chair grinding against the floor making a screeching sound.
"As I told you before, our organization is called "Absolute Star", and it was founded twenty years ago, but in fact, before the end of the world, we were a security company on the surface. For example, the four of my men were employees of the security company at the time, and they only became members of the Paranormal Group after the end of the world. β
"So were you a former security company employee?" Su Qiqi didn't feel like it.
"No, I've only been a little over a month in our organization, and I was just a trainee lawyer a month before the end of the world." Li Xiaotian recalled, "As a result, I was fired because of some things, and I was in a trance that day and was almost hit by a car, but it was my current boss who saved me." β
It's a clichΓ© plot of a hero saving beauty.
Su Qiqi tugged at the corners of his mouth and sneered.
"Then he suggested that I join their Anomalous Mission, saying that in a month the world would be a great cataclysm."
"You believe it?" After all, there was no warning at that time, and we were all successors living under the red flag, so we generally felt that the opposite side was a secondary two disease.
"Of course I don't believe it, but the fireball that came out of thin air on his hand made me have to believe it." Li Xiaotian shook her head, put her hand on the edge of the table and began to rub the table, raising her head slightly. "After joining the organization, there will be a one-month training camp, a closed training camp, and it is through that month's hard work that I have obtained the current position of team leader."
"To get back to the point, after the end of the world, because most of us have better physical fitness and more awakened people, we have occupied a place in these last days. Although it is not as big as the top organizations, our organization still has branches in various bases, and we can still talk. Li Xiaotian said with some pride about the history of their organization: "Especially in the several bases in the central part of the country, there will be a little more people stationed in our bases, and there will be many lonely awakened people who have joined our organization. The founder of our peerless ability group is a top master, a small number of dual-ability powerhouses, he and many high-level members of the ability group awakened a few months before the end of the world, but the official has been suppressing it in order to prevent the crowd from rioting, so no news has been revealed."
Why did the officials and their organizations know about the coming of the end times a month in advance?
After that night, why did the number of supernatural people increase, and what caused people to become supernatural or monsters?
She felt that in the dark, there seemed to be a pair of big hands pushing the end of the world to happen.
The more Su Qiqi thought about it, the more creepy he felt.
"If Qi Yan wants to join us, he is almost the 8th thunder ability, and for this kind of person with strong attack power, you will have to go to the base of our organization to train for a month. Let me make it clear to you in advance, you should probably be sent to the more dangerous forward team in your base to carry out more dangerous missions. Of course, the more dangerous the mission, the more rewards. β
"Look, this is the reward for my last mission." Li Xiaotian said as she took out a red crystal-like thing from her pocket.
This red crystal is different from the one they had killed before, it seemed to be blocked with scorching flames, and if you stare at it for a little longer, you will feel like your eyes are going to be burned.
"This is a fire monster that fell out, called fire crystals, one is worth 100 crystals of ordinary people, some monsters will also awaken abilities, they are much more difficult than ordinary monsters."
Li Xiaotian took the fire crystal in her hand and waved it, showing off her achievements.
Qi Yanke nodded unshockedly, and did not show any greedy look, but just continued to listen quietly.
"By the way, let me introduce myself again, Li Xiaotian, a fire-based supernatural, and the captain of the Absolute Seventh Squad." As he spoke, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, snapped his fingers, and saw a small flame appear on his index finger.
She lit a cigarette and wanted to take a puff, but Su Qiqi frowned slightly and became a little embarrassed, extinguished the cigarette and put it on the table.
"I'm sorry, I'm surrounded by some big guys, I'm used to it." Li Xiaotian almost forgot that there were two little girls in front of her, shook her hand and said, "As long as you all join us, you will each get a single dormitory." As a member of the Peerless Organization, many people dare not provoke you. You can get the latest news of the end times as soon as possible, and you can also quickly improve your strength, and you can crystallize according to your rank every month. β
"Do members have the right to refuse tasks they don't want to do?" Su Qiqi asked the question he wanted to ask the most.
"In principle, no. Join to be unconditionally obedient, unless you go to management. However, any organization will give preferential treatment to those who are supernatural, depending on what your boss wants. β
"Can you do your own thing?" Su Qiqi asked again.
"The organization's business is your business, but you'll be given a few days off every month." Li Xiaotian replied, and was afraid that Su Qiqi would give up joining because of this provision, so he continued: "You shouldn't know the ruins of ancient civilization, right?" β
Su Qiqi and Qi Yanke heard this new term for the first time, and shook their heads at the same time, indicating that they had not heard of it.
"Our organization has mastered the entrance to an ancient civilization ruin, and inside, you can get some opportunities to improve your abilities." Li Xiaotian sells Guanzi.
"Something like a fire crystal?" Qi Yanke asked.
"Almost...... But it's not the same, as for how it's different, you'll know if you join us once. Li Xiaotian replied vaguely, just to arouse their curiosity.
"For ordinary people, we have an absolutely safe base where the families of the supernatural can live." In order to prevent Qi Yan from worrying about Su Qiqi, on the surface, Su Qiqi was just an ordinary person, so she added.
As for whether Su Qiqi has any abilities, let them join first, after all, the identity of a Qi Yanke's thunder ability is enough to bring many family members into the safety base.
Qi Yanke's eyes lit up when she heard that there was a safe base, and she nodded.
"Then you discuss? I'll wait for your results below. Li Xiaotian saw that the conversation was almost over, so she got up and walked out.
"Are you really going to join them?" Su Qiqi saw that Li Xiaotian had gone out, so he asked Qi Yanke.
Su Qiqi learned from Li Xiaotian's words that if she joins the Absolute Star, she may not have the right to make her own choice, and she will be bound by the organization, so she has already passed the choice of joining the Absolute Star in her heart.
She felt that she could earn those ruins and salary rewards, after all, she had lucky dice, and if she couldn't tell the more and more, she could find a few ruins on the road.
"Well, I want to be stronger, at first I was just a wooden box, and I didn't have any attack power, so it was better for the two of us to rely on each other together. But now I have awakened the thunder ability" Qi Yanke clenched his fists and took a deep breath: "In this apocalyptic world full of monsters, I want to make myself very strong, and I need to use some external forces. β
"Do you have to join them to improve yourself?" Su Qiqi asked.
"It's faster." Qi Yanke already has her own choice.
Su Qiqi glanced at Qi Yanke calmly, and Qi Yanke's cold face showed a resolute look.
Su Qiqi, who knew her, knew that she couldn't persuade Qi Yanke anymore, since she wanted to move forward bravely, then she wouldn't stop her from moving forward.
"If I join their organization, you will go to their safe base, so that there is no danger," Qi Jian said.
"I don't want to go to a safe base to stay, I want to find my mom to see if she's still alive. You don't have to worry about my danger, I actually have an awakened ability that will make me lucky. I also know that the ability to awaken the thunder system in this apocalyptic world can indeed stimulate a person's ambition, I will not stop you, I wish you to become stronger and stronger. Su Qiqi smiled lightly, and when Su Qiqi saw her awaken the thunder ability, he knew that they still had to part.
"Qiqi, are you really not going to join with me?" Qi Yanke asked a little panicked.
"I don't like to have an organization that controls my movements." Su Qiqi nodded firmly.
"Okay, then you should be safe by yourself." Qi Yanke still wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a long time, he only said this sentence in the end.
The final result was told to Li Xiaotian, Li Xiaotian was not surprised, she handed over the key to this dormitory to Su Qiqi and asked her to live here temporarily.
And Li Xiaotian said that the headquarters had important things to explain, and asked her to go back to the main base 35 immediately, so let Qi Yanke pack up her things and set off immediately.
Qi Yanke didn't have anything else to take, all the things were stored in the wooden box space, and secretly gave most of the food to Su Qiqi, and followed Li Xiaotian away.
Su Qiqi watched his friend leave the base and sighed deeply.
In this last world, everyone's choice is different, and in the end, you have to go alone.
