"Where is she?" asked Zero softly.
Hai Wei stretched out her hand and pointed in one direction of the palace: "Chengtian Palace, I heard that it is a practice room." When we came back, Yeru said that she was going to training, and I wanted to go together. She refused......"
The girl looked up and said, "She never refused me to train with her." ”
Pinched Haiwei's hair, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll go see her." I think Yeliu just needs a process of familiarity and re-understanding of oneself. She'll come over. ”
"Boss, how do you know?" Haiwei looked at Zero expectantly.
"Because, that's how I came here. Zero waved his hand and walked in the direction Haiwei had pointed out.
However, the area of the palace in Longhai is not small, although the architectural pattern is based on the central stone road as the axis, the two sides are symmetrically expanded. But if you are not familiar with it, it is really not easy to reach the destination. During this period, Zero caught a Qin official to lead the way, and only then did he find the Chengtian Palace.
The door of the Chengtian Hall was closed, the door was hidden, and the zero hands pushed forward, pushing the door open a crack. He went inside, and the temple was brightly lit. This is the martial arts training ground of Longhai, and several generals of Muwu often come to this hall to practice. The main hall is divided into several functional areas, and in the fighting area, Zero sees Yeliu. The girl stood tall on a weapon rack with her back to the gate. There was an antique glaive knife there, and Yeliu's toes were on the blade, but he stood as calm as a mountain.
Zero did not deliberately restrain his breath, and even deliberately accentuated the sound of footsteps. But Yeliu was full of thoughts, as if she hadn't heard zero's movement. As Zero walked up to her, a photo floated down. Zero reached out and grabbed it, looking down. In the photo, there is an Asian man in his fifties, and there is a young girl standing next to him, who is Yeliu.
"It's Father. Yeliu's slightly hoarse voice rang out: "It's in the office of that man named Qiu Ze, this is one of his collected photos." When I took this picture, it was me, Pioneer 1, who woke up. ”
Zero sighed lightly: "Do you have any memories at that time?"
"I don't remember at all. Yeliu's body trembled slightly, and said, "My last memory is the picture of my father's frequent deaths. He wanted me to leave, to live bravely, to work hard, to live like a human being. I didn't understand why he said that, but now I do. Because I'm not human, I'm a clone of a cell taken from a target itself. ”
"But to him, you're his daughter, so you call him father, don't you?" Zero said, "To this man, you're not some Pioneer No. 1, but his daughter Yeru! And now, you're not a Pioneer, you're our companion...... Yeruo!"
Yeliu's body shook again, and something dripped onto the blade, wetting the blade slightly.
Zero walked to the other side and said, "Remember Dr. Curd?"
"Hmm. ”
"About two years ago, Beonise and I fell into a base. That's where we met Dr. Kord. ”
"I know, you brought that vampire doctor back. ”
"Vampires?"
"What Haiwei said, because Kode always sees the light. ”
Zero smiled and shook his head and said, "Well, that's not the point. In the base, do you know what else I found, Yaru. ”
The girl standing on the knife peak finally turned her face away and looked towards zero.
"My identity. Zero said: "In this way, we are all the same. That's right, I'm also a clone of some kind of living specimen. Yeliu, it's hard for you to imagine what kind of mood it is like when you see thousands of yourself. Confused, hesitant, life loses focus, life is completely meaningless. Because you're not the only one, and if you die, there's a thousand more you can replace, and that's scary, isn't it?"
"I was lucky that Beyonise was there at the time. She was the one who helped me find the beacon to rebuild myself. Zero raised his head, looked directly at the girl and said, "That's right, there are many clones." But it's just me, and I'm the only one who has experienced this qiē. I have Beonlis, and I have friends like you who share life and death, and this qiē experience is unique. They are the one that I, and only zero has. ”
"You should be the same, Yaryu. Even though the other pioneer girl looks exactly like you, Haiwei regards her as a friend of life and death, and only Yeliu is you. And for us, Yeliu is not irreplaceable. No matter how many pioneer girls there are, we can recognize you from them at a glance. Because after experiencing this qiē, we already have a bond, which is an emotion that nothing can replace. ”
Yeliu's petite body trembled slightly, and her little face still didn't have much emotional ups and downs, but there were waves in her eyes. Zero handed her the photo, "It's the same with your father. He sees you as a daughter, and he will take you away and set you on a completely different path than the other pioneers. The proof that you have the will of your own is the best proof of that. So, I think this qiē is enough to distinguish you from other pioneers. ”
"Yeru, trust us. Believe in yourself, your save, irreplaceable!"
When Zero walked out of the Chengtian Hall with Yeliu, there were several people standing in the square outside the hall. Not only was Haiwei present, but even Su, Maple and Brown were there. Zero Chaofeng cast a consultative gaze, and the latter spread his hands and said, "Su and I were originally looking for you, but we ran into Haiwei." The little ghost has said everything, so Yeliu ......"
Feng stepped forward and grinned, "If that bastard named Qiu Ze just caught you on the real platform, you can rest assured, I will dismantle him in eight pieces." ”
Before he finished speaking, Kaede let Su Yi take it back, and the short-haired girl shook her head and said, "Stupid, you can't figure out the point." ”
She looked at Yeliu and said softly, "Yeliu, although you don't like to talk. But in my heart, I have long regarded you and Haiwei as my sisters. What I want you to know is that only you will fight with my life to protect you. Although, you probably won't need me to protect you. ”
"Of course, natural stay is much better than you, a violent woman who can only wield a heavy sword. Kaede shouted from the side.
Su short hair raised slightly, turned around and sneered: "It's not." For example, a monkey who plays with two knives will not be Yeliu's opponent. ”
"Hey, who's the monkey!"
Even though she knew that the two of them did it on purpose, Yeliu still unconsciously smiled. Hai Wei saw it in her eyes, clapped her hands and said, "Yeliu, you smiled." ”
At this time, Zero pushed Yeliu slightly behind and asked her to walk towards Haiwei. Yeliu turned around and showed a cheerful smile to Zero: "Thank you." Chief......"
Then he looked at the others and said, "Thank you too, I'm fine." You don't have to worry. ”
"Great. Hai Wei jumped over and pounced on Ye Liu's body like a lion cub, and the whole person hung on Ye Liu's neck and said, "Ye Liu, you are finally normal." ”
Yeliu smacked her head lightly, "Of course, I still have to take care of you, don't I?"
"What, I'm strong, okay. ”
"Really, let's fight?"
"Hit it!"
Zero smiled as he looked at the two young girls who had regained their vitality, as well as the other companions. He knew that the bond between his friends was deeper. Perhaps biological weapons without emotions are in some ways much more efficient than humans. But it is because of these emotional bonds between people that they can often create miracles in the impossible!
The next day, a batch of supercoagulant shells had been processed. This is the arsenal of the city that does not fall overnight, a total of 500 rounds, which can be fired using the cannons of artillery tanks. With this batch of shells, there is hope to interrupt Prosius's feeding and stop it from absorbing the planet's energy.
After distributing the shells to all tank fighting vehicles, the huge armies of the three continents were assembled and set off. Valhalla and the Dark Council have the largest number of armies in this coalition, and they are in the center of the army, becoming the arrows of the entire army. The Dawning City, the Black Earth, and the Knights of the Holy Seal were mixed together, on the left flank of the army. As for the right flank, it was supplemented by the armies of the Eastern Continent.
At the front of the Great Army, Zero's Legion of Creatures had already drawn ahead of schedule, heading towards the Eternal Mountains.
As for the three leader-level figures of Zero, Douglas, and Long Hai, they took several strong men under their command to accompany them, far ahead of the biological legion and galloped on the Drinking Horse Plain. They need to arrive on the battlefield early in order to be able to deploy their strategy based on the situation on the ground.
It takes two days to reach the Eternal Mountains from the city to the city, and Zero sits in the Longhai special river dragon off-road vehicle, and his eyes take in the scenery along the way. The dragon is a special vehicle of Longhai, which has been specially modified and has strong horsepower and can reach a speed of 300 kilometers per hour. Of course, this kind of top speed requires extraordinary awareness on the part of the person driving the car. Of course, ordinary people can't control this wild off-road vehicle, but in the hands of Long Hai, it is like an obedient horse, galloping easily.
The off-road vehicle is much more rugged than the regular model, and the front bezel has three rows of stubby steel cones that are enough to bounce off any obstacle. The movable light machine gun firing compartments on the left and right sides can provide fire support for rapid strikes, while the anti-aircraft machine gun in the tail is absolute heavy firepower, and the shoulder-mounted missile "Flying Dragon" in the standing rear trunk provides a certain amount of long-range heavy firepower.
Of course, in the eyes of Zero Three, this car is just a big toy. Not to mention that Zero and Douglas are both twelfth-order powerhouses, even Su and Feng are tenth-order, and the firepower of the river dragon can't threaten them. Unless they are willing to stand still and abandon any defenses to be bombarded by anti-aircraft guns and missiles, it is questionable whether these fires will hit their targets.
However, the car is not without its benefits, it is powerful enough to run at a high speed. Driving on the plain road, the scenery on both sides receded like a tide, and the car was left behind in an instant. With the speed of the dragon over the river, they will be able to reach the Eternal Mountains tomorrow morning, and at noon, they can see the former capital of the East Asian Alliance, the free city of Bai Goni.
On the way, the car passed through two cities. The city has been reduced to ruins, bearing witness to the wreaks of the Black Legion.
At sunset, the buggy finally stopped. Longhai drove off the road and turned into a deserted town not far away. The remaining buildings in the town have the typical ancient style of Qin, especially the archway at the entrance of the town, which has oriental characteristics. It's just that most of the archway has fallen down, resting on the half of the stone flat on the side of the road, and I can barely see the word Wushui.
Long Hai parked his car in the center of Wushui Town, where there was a small square, and the place was quite open, which could be used to camp for the night. It took half an hour for several second-class Sea Jiaolong off-road vehicles to arrive at the square, but it was a few entourage powerhouses under the command of Zero and the three arrived.
The camp was set up, and Su, Kaede, Shem, and Starley were in charge of the guards. The first two were in charge of the first half of the night, and the second half of the night was handled by Shem and Starley. Wushui Town is not big, and it is even a bit overkill for a town of a few hundred people with two tenth-order powerhouses to act as guards, but no one cares about these. After dinner, Su and Feng found a hidden place to hide on the east and west sides of the town, monitoring the movement of the wilderness outside the town.
There was a bonfire in the small square, Long Hai and Douglas were discussing tomorrow's actions in the tent, and Zero sat alone by the fire, chatting with Flash about some cultural customs in the Eastern Continent. At this time, Long Hai came and patted Shan's shoulder, the general of Qin would leave willingly, leaving the space for Long Hai and the two of them.
Ryuhai flipped over the branches piled up in the campfire, allowing the flames to get into the gaps, and the light of the fire became brighter. The fire shone on Long Hai's resolute face, and the emperor of Qin looked at Zero and said, "Zero, you are also Asian, right?"
Zero smiled, noncommittal. His facial features and black hair do have Asian characteristics, but his genes come from Gaia's super life. So strictly speaking, his bloodline does not belong to the current various races, but is more ancient.
Of course, Zero will not talk to Long Hai on this issue. As for his identity, it is okay to let the people closest to him know, and Zero has no intention of shaking out all these things. So he changed the subject: "I heard General Shen talk about Qin's past just now, and it is not easy for His Highness Long Hai to re-establish this empire in this land." ”
"It's not easy. Long Hai nodded and looked at the campfire. The firelight jumped in his eyes, and his thoughts seemed to return to the era when it was in full swing.
Like the Central Continent, after the cataclysm, the order of the Eastern Continent was gone. With carnage and chaos everywhere, Long Hai has forgotten how much sacrifice he has made in order to put an end to the strife and lay the first cornerstone for today's Qin empire. How many followers fell forever on that bloody path to the throne, so to speak, digging up the cornerstones of the empire, and every stone was smeared with blood.
"Today's Qin is not easy to come by, although we are also in constant dispute with the East Asian Alliance. But at least within the territory of Qin, the people have laws to follow, and they can follow them in an orderly manner. I know I'm not doing justice enough. But in this damn era, who can be absolutely just. But I can guarantee that my people will at least survive and live better and better. If...... There are no words of Prosius. Long Hai smiled bitterly: "These damn invaders, they have caused more damage than even the sum of the turbulent years before the establishment of the empire. ”
"Too many people have died, too many generals and soldiers have paid with their lives for this. So, no matter what, I'm going to kill that thing. Long Hai slammed the ground hard, and the green bricks of the square immediately fell apart.
"I'm in the same mood as you, Your Highness. Zero nodded.
"Well, speaking of Prosius. What are your plans after interrupting those pillars of clouds that extract the planet's energy?" asked Long Hai.
This time it was Zero's turn to smile bitterly: "To be honest, a lot of the time I pretend to be confident. But in fact, it's a problem just to get Prosius to roll off that damn sky. But what can I do, if even I myself seem confused, how can I give confidence to the people below. ”
Long Hai laughed, patted Zero hard and said, "This has come to my heart, and many times I will feel this way." After all, the responsibility on our shoulders is too heavy, so heavy that even we dare not take the decision lightly. I have a solution, though. ”
"What's the solution?"
"That's the fucking plan, let's do it first. Long Hai waved his hand vigorously and said, "Anyway, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge." Oh, this is our Oriental saying. ”
Long Hai clapped his hands and stood up: "It's not early, you should rest early." As for tomorrow, we'll talk about it tomorrow!"
For this mention of Long Hai, Zero readily agreed.
In the second half of the night, Su and Kaede came back and replaced them with Flash and Starley.
Shem is in charge of the west side of the town, near the entrance of the town, facing the road. The remaining high-rise building here is a three-storey, arcade-style building. Shem occupies an attic on the third floor, and brings a chair to sit on the small balcony of the attic. From this direction, the wilderness at night was painted with a dark red light, and it was so gloomy that it made people's hearts palpitate.
Sitting in the chair, Shin pulled a wallet out of his jacket pocket. When I opened it, there was a photograph in my wallet. In the photo, there is a beautiful woman on each side, and five and a half children are squatting around. This is a family photo of Zhang, don't look young, but he already has two wives and five children. He is glad that one of his wives is twin sisters. These two sisters serve the same husband, and they already have the same heart, so they are under the same roof, unlike other people's wives and concubines who are jealous all day long. They are kind and virtuous, and keep their homes in order, so that Shem can rest assured that she can fight outside.
In total, since the intruder appeared, Shem found that she had set foot in the house at the end of two months. He thought to himself that after this operation, he would have to find time to go home anyway.
As for whether the operation could succeed, Flash didn't think about it at all, and he didn't dare to think about it. Every time he thought of the storm clouds that hung over the continent, Shin felt a boulder press down on his chest. He believed that Mu Wu and even Long Hai would feel this way. It was from the instincts of the strong, even before they knew the true identity of the storm cloud.
What it's like to face a predator!
