After listening to Genava's answer, Shang Jianyao suddenly raised his right hand holding the "Berzy Warrior" assault rifle, and whispered a Buddha's name:
"Namo Anuttarasamyaksabodhi."
"What do you mean?" Genova asked sincerely.
He knew that this was the mantra of Buddhism, but he didn't know why Shang Jianyao used this place.
Shang Jianyao sighed and said:
"It may be the ripples we caused last time that the 'mindless' here all died."
With the head of the chameleon, Genava moved his metal neck up and down:
"There is a certain probability."
Shang Jianyao then pointed his gun at the dilapidated apartment in front of him and said:
"go in."
Based on the detailed information provided by Gitis, he and Genava quickly found Esther's home in Conimmis.
It is located on the top floor of the apartment and is connected by two houses. The living room is very spacious, but there are only a few single sofas, a coffee table with leather edges stacked with debris, and some cabinets by the wall. , there are all kinds of toys scattered all over the ground.
This includes a lot of building blocks.
Some of them have been piled up into fortresses, some have become animals, and some have not been completed, and the corresponding components can be seen around.
Dust accumulates everywhere here, visible to the naked eye.
The red light in Genova's eyes flickered for a while before he said:
"There is no hospitality function here, it has become a playground for children."
It can be seen that this is the subjective wish of Esther or his mistress.
They didn't think about entertaining guests at home, and they didn't even want to put more sofas.
"They should love those two children very much..." Shang Jianyao said suddenly.
Genova fell into silence for a while as he recalled his daughter.
In silence, his eyes swept across every corner of the living room, and finally landed on a photo frame placed on the surface of the coffee table.
There are two children in the photo, the older one is a boy, four or five years old, slightly fat, with golden hair combed into three or seven points of an adult's feeling, his face is awkward and disgusting, and he doesn't seem to be willing to take pictures. It was a girl, only one or two years old, with blond hair in pigtails, blue eyes that were clear and ignorant, a carefree smile, sweet and lovely.
Compared with other ruins, many things here that have been destroyed for more than ten years and few relic hunters dare to enter are still quite intact, as if they were sealed in place by time.
Genova stared for a while before saying:
"The occupants should never have returned."
"Why do you say that?" Shang Jianyao asked sharply.
"One is that there are no traces of biological activity here, and the other is that when the disaster broke out, everyone in the city should have become 'unintentional'." Genova explained dutifully.
Shang Jianyao shook his head and said seriously:
"The 'Unintentional' also knows to go home."
Genova did not refute, but just followed this logic to analyze:
"There are also no traces of 'unintentional' in the living room, unless they entered and exited directly through the windows of several bedrooms."
"Check it out and you'll know." Shang Jianyao carried the Berserker assault rifle, walked into the living room, and walked to the deep rooms.
Every scene he and Genova saw had a quiet but gray feel, and it seemed that the masters never really came back.
Looking at the big bed protected by the fence and the toy bear on the big bed, Shang Jianyao was silent for a long time.
Genova stared for a while before saying:
"They were supposed to be walking or playing outside, not at home..."
Judging from the fact that many vehicles collided on various roads in Konimmis, the disaster occurred during the day.
The last judgment of Shang Jianyao and Genava was that when the residents of Konimis first became "intentional ones", it was difficult for them to calm down, and large-scale killings occurred among each other.
Shang Jianyao didn't speak, walked to the bed, picked up the toy bear and the diamond necklace on the nearby cabinet, and stuffed it into the empty backpack behind Genova.
Then, he walked back to the living room, found a building block box, dismantled the fort into small pieces, and put it in.
Again, this ended up in Genova's backpack.
After completing these things, Shang Jianyao looked around and said in surprise:
"We didn't encounter a single accident!"
He smiled as if fate was less wise and the enemy was ruthless.
"It's normal." Genova analyzed, "This is not the area that overlaps with the 'New World', and there are no 'Mindless' activities, and Esther is not particularly powerful, involving many secretive characters, let's come He still picked up a few ordinary items at home, and it would be strange to encounter an accident."
"It's boring." Shang Jianyao looked disappointed.
He then used the communication system embedded in the military exoskeleton device to inform Jiang Baimian that the mission of Esther's last wish had been completed.
"You can't be careless, you must be absolutely cautious after that." Jiang Baimian specifically warned after listening.
Shang Jianyao agreed very quickly.
Then he and Genova set off from the current street to the luxury apartment marked on the map.
It didn't take long for the area that was shrouded in fog to appear in front of them as if it were always in the dark.
Shang Jianyao and Genava were familiar with the road, turned on the flashlight they brought, bypassed the place with the light shining through, and moved closer to the destination step by step.
The deeper they go, the larger the range they can detour, so as not to be sensed by the powerhouses in the "New World" projection.
After all, there is no guarantee that it must be an acquaintance, it must be a friendly person like Flora and Barnard.
Flora and Barnard are the first two "New World" powerhouses that Shang Jianyao and Genava met in the overlapping land.
They were chatting in a lighted cafe.
Of course, the cafe belongs to the projection of the "new world", in reality, it is just an empty room with garbage piled up.
During another detour, Genova looked at the corpses on the side of the street and in the road, looked sideways at Shang Jianyao, who kept a certain distance from him so as not to be taken away by a pot, and said:
"Our strategy right now is working and should help us get there.
"But after that, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to think about detours and tricks. Aren't you worried that the 'Angel of Life' necklace will not be able to protect you? It's like the last time we met the man in the library projection."
Shang Jianyao looked ahead through the mask of the military exoskeleton device and said with a smile:
"Since fate has arranged for us to come all the way here, I think we will definitely turn a bad luck into a good one and gain something.
"Take it easy when you can, okay?"
"But when fate achieves its purpose and no longer favors us, things will be completely different." Genova reminded in a slightly synthetic voice, "Da Bai said that the mountain falls, and the wall collapses. Only you can rely on yourself forever.”
Shang Jianyao sneered:
"You try to let a man live on his own for the rest of his life, and he died when he was a baby!"
"You can argue with Dabai." Genova said that this was not what he said.
Shang Jianyao laughed and said:
"If fate no longer favors us, then it should be the end of the story."
His tone gradually became serious and serious.
"Aren't you afraid that the story will have a tragic ending?" Genova said with a red light flashing twice in his eyes.
Shang Jianyao turned his head to the side, looked at Genava, and said with a smile:
"I'll try to get the ending I want, whether it's good or tragic. It's my ideal, and I've done so much to have a chance to make a choice for that ideal."
After speaking, he slapped the Berserker assault rifle on his left chest and solemnly said:
"For all mankind!"
Before Genova could respond, Shang Jianyao asked eagerly:
"How, am I becoming more and more like a real 'Salvation Army'?"
He acted like he was expecting praise from a child who was afraid of criticism.
"..." Genova almost didn't turn the corner, and a bug almost appeared.
To be honest, he finally moved his metal neck up and down:
"Yes."
Shang Jianyao was instantly elated, so Genova didn't know for a while whether he was performing or speaking the truth.
The two walked for a while, and then came across a street with lights shining through the fog.
There seems to be one roadside stall after another.
Shang Jianyao saw his eyes go straight, and it was very difficult to withdraw his gaze, and said to Genawa:
"This time we have to go around a block."
"Yes." Genova's analysis was the same.
After walking around for a few minutes, Shang Jianyao suddenly said:
"Why are there lights in the 'New World' projection
"We came in at different times.
"Why can't there be a pitch-black 'New World' projection that quietly overlaps with the dark and foggy streets? That way, we won't be able to detect it in advance and choose to detour!"
That's a good question, Genova has to admit.
He quickly analyzed for a while and said:
"Perhaps the projection of the 'New World' in Konimis is related to the powerhouses of the 'New World', at least we encounter humans every time."
What he means is that the strong increase the power of the corresponding area, causing that part of the "New World" to overlap with Konimis.
Genova went on to add:
"And those strong people in the 'New World' can only live in places with lights?"
"Interesting." Shang Jianyao patted his chest with the "Berzy Warrior" assault rifle.
He looks like this guess suits his spleen and stomach.
At this time, Genova determined the current location and compared the map.
He immediately said in a slightly synthetic voice:
"Around this block, you should be able to see the luxury apartment where the 'Children's Son' lives."
"Looking forward!" Shang Jianyao said unabashedly.
After walking for another ten or twenty minutes, the two finally successfully bypassed the dangerous area they had divided.
What appeared in front of them was a high-rise apartment standing a hundred meters away.
It stood quietly in the dark, shrouded in a faint mist, and every room on each floor had yellowish or pure white lights.
