Invasion

Chapter 106: The road is divided into two ends

Ni Ji saw the message sent by Ji Xuan.

Among the sentinels in this team, there were two of their companions, companions who had the same goal, kept it a secret, and moved quietly in the dark night.

Both of them received the notification sent by Ji Xuan.

The content was very brief, "From now on, everything will be arranged by the Avengers."

Each of them has his own code name, and Ni Ji's code name is Avenger.

The messages were sent at the same time, just a few words, and they were completely destroyed after not staying on the personal terminal for long. They used a secret communication method that was difficult to track.

It was obvious that something had happened to Ji Xuan who was in the White Tower.

The others received a notice asking them to follow Ni Ji's arrangements from now on.

But Ni Ji himself did not receive any text message.

Ni Ji knew that this was a kind of protection for him.

Something serious must have happened to Ji Xuan, for he would have entrusted everything to him in such a hurry.

Not even a message was sent to him to protect his safety.

Ni Ji intertwined her fingers and rubbed them gently, then nodded slightly at the man and stopped talking.

There are too many people here, and they never act too familiar unless it is necessary.

The man retreated calmly, without letting anyone notice this little episode.

The road conditions in the polluted area were not very good and the car body was shaking violently.

The sky slowly faded downward like a melting candle, mushrooms died along the way, and the air was filled with ashes like catkins.

It was like a heavy snowfall covering the entire sky.

Just at this time, the car drove to that place.

The remains of a huge iron tower appeared in sight.

The body, a mixture of human and monster, had an angry look on its face and raised its head to roar towards the sky.

That was the body of the dead Tazi.

This is the cemetery, the final resting place of Ni Ji's former comrades. A long time has passed, but their bodies still stand here in the same state as they did before.

The vehicle slowly drove past the black skeleton, and the sound of wind whistling was heard in the air.

Ni Ji straightened his clothes and wiped the blood off his head and face.

Try to let your former partners see that you have cheered up.

The strong wind blew the white fluff all over the sky, and it fell on his shoulders and head.

It was very gentle, as if his friends who were buried there were saying goodbye to him.

In fact, things haven't changed much. Ni Ji looked at the corpses of his comrades and thought as he sat in the flying catkins.

Back then, my friends around me had accidents one after another, and it’s still the same now.

Perhaps even Adjutant Ji, who has always been extremely cautious, could not escape.

For a moment, Ni Ji felt a pair of cold eyes, crossing the space, looking straight at him from the top of the distant tower, and falling on him, monitoring all of them.

The feeling is chilling.

He lowered his eyelashes and saw the little hand next to him in the crowded carriage. The fingers were slightly curled, gently resting on the edge of his black uniform, and the skin was as white as a handful of glistening snow.

At this moment, Ni Ji felt a strong desire in his heart. He really wanted to hold that soft hand and draw some warmth and strength from it.

Want it so so much.

But there are too many people around, and they are all sentinels with keen five senses.

His gaze lingered on the hand for only a second or two before he looked away.

In the swaying carriage, there was a lot of noise and bustle.

The sentry captain sat upright with his back slightly leaning back against the cold inner wall of the truck bed.

At that moment, a tentacle squeezed in between the car wall and his back and poked him in the lower back.

The skin on Ni Ji's back, waist and legs tensed up instantly.

The flexible tentacle poked his lower back, and after a moment, pinched it again.

Ni Ji couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lin Yuan beside him.

Lin Yuan sat upright, his dark eyeballs moving back and forth in his sockets.

She knows!

Ni Ji knew very well that sometimes the tentacles behaved in a way that Lin Yuan herself was unaware of. She had too many tentacles, and each had its own independent consciousness.

Sometimes when Lin Yuan falls asleep or is concentrating on a battle, some of the things the tentacles do to him cannot be regarded as Lin Yuan’s own thoughts.

But this time, it was obvious that Lin Yuan knew, and it was even possible that she actively drove the tentacles to do so.

She, she pinched her waist twice

Lin Yuan's face was expressionless. With his hands out of sight, he made a sign to Ni Ji.

"Do you feel better?"

When they communicated in the past, they often communicated directly in the spiritual world. The speed was very fast, and their will was transmitted in an instant, with almost no delay.

If that doesn't work, you can also use oral narration.

But for some reason, Lin Yuan chose sign language, the slowest way of communication. It was as if time was not tight and everything could be done slowly.

Just like the communication between him and his former partners.

"I play games with Nicole. When she does the same, it makes me feel better."

The white and delicate fingers flew and gestured in the shadows, communicating silently and slowly.

She is such a sensitive and gentle person. She can always take care of her own low mood at the first time.

"Are you feeling better?" the hand gestured.

Ni Ji lowered his eyelashes and stared at the hands hiding in the shadows and signing to him.

I thought to myself, there are actually some differences.

Today I am no longer as weak as I was that year. I will no longer give up on myself easily and I have the courage to keep going no matter what happens.

The person who gave him this courage was now sitting next to him, leaning against his arm.

Ni Ji answered Lin Yuan's question with a smile.

His smile was so beautiful, like the chilly snow-capped peaks suddenly dyed with orange-red sunlight, so beautiful that one could not take their eyes away.

The transport vehicle loaded with sentinels drove out of the contaminated area No. 33, leaving behind the city that was slowly reappearing in the human world.

A sentry in the carriage nudged his companion with his elbow.

The companions around her looked up, followed her gaze, and saw their icy captain through the gaps in the crowd.

Captain Ni Ji held his gun, lowered his eyelashes, and fell into a relaxed sleep with a soft smile on his lips.

Captain Ni on the battlefield was almost like an iron man. Almost no one had ever seen him fall into a true sleep. He was always alert and seemed to be awake and alert all the time.

Even the slightest movement would make him suddenly open his eyes and cast a sharp gaze.

When can I see him sleeping so relaxedly in such a crowded place

That smile made them feel that what their companion said might be true.

Captain Ni is in love.

Ni Ji fell asleep in the shaking carriage.

He had been fighting for a long time and was exhausted.

Soon, I will have to face a more dangerous battlefield in Kyoto. I urgently need a completely relaxing sleep.

Only when I am with someone can I get such a completely peaceful sleep.

The man was right next to him.

Lin Yuan looked at the sentry beside him.

He didn't sleep with his head against her like he did when they were together before.

He just held the gun, his body slightly curled up, with the direction of his curled up facing himself.

His face looked very bad, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. His collar was loose, and a large purple-red scar could be seen on his shoulder spreading to his collarbone.

Lin Yuan knew how exhausted he was and that he had a lot on his mind.

But he curled up, leaned against the wall of the car and slept next to himself, and could still smile at himself.

He always smiles to himself, and he looks really good when he smiles.

While sleeping, Ni Ji's fingers would often twitch slightly, as if he was trying to grab something subconsciously.

If there weren't so many people watching, Lin Yuan felt that she should give him one of her tentacles so that he could hold it while sleeping.

When this thought flashed through my mind, I inexplicably felt as if I had seen this scene somewhere.

In a damp and dark place, the sentinel's sweaty skin, taut muscles, and strong arms were holding a sticky tentacle.

There was also a black fish tail swinging in the air.

Why do these weird scenes that don't exist in my memory keep appearing recently

"Did you do anything rude to Xiaoyu when I wasn't around?" Lin Yuan asked the tentacles.

[No, no, absolutely not.] The tentacles swung their arms and legs in unison to deny it.

[All done in front of you]

[Don't blame it on us. Maybe you did something bad while we were asleep.]

[That’s it. That’s it.]

[For example, pinching the chin, pinching the waist, doing this and that]

[That’s it. That’s it.]

[Don’t say anything, I always feel like I’ve tasted him at some point.]

[I mean the mouthparts, the lips.]

[Every time he talks, I always feel very strange. I must have tasted it before and know what it feels like.]

[Why can’t I remember?]

[It's so strange, we have so many brains, but no one can remember? ]

We drove all the way back to Kyoto.

After Ni Ji got off the car, he extended his hand towards Lin Yuan in the car.

Nowadays, it is no problem for Lin Yuan to jump into a small carriage.

But she suddenly felt that she could be a little weak once in a while, so she put her hand into the sentry's black-gloved hand.

Ni Ji held her hand tightly and protected her as she jumped out of the car.

At that moment, she could feel the sentinel's slender fingers tightening almost imperceptibly, and he held on for half a second longer before finally and reluctantly releasing them.

They parted ways there, going their separate ways.

Ni Ji turned and walked towards the towering white tower.

Lin Yuan and her friends walked back to her home.

After separating for a while, Ni Ji on the road couldn't help but look back.

Seeing the end of the road, his guide was surrounded by numerous powerful sentinels.

"It's been a tiring trip. Let's go to Yuanyuan's house for afternoon tea?"

"Ask Yun Luo if he can come. I have some new insights and would like to discuss it with him."

"I wonder what delicious food Xiaosuo will prepare. That girl always prepares a lot of delicious food for us. I like her so much."

"I want to ask the gardener of Guide Lin's house for a bunch of roses. Her roses are the best of all the other roses in the garden."

They talked and laughed all the way as they headed towards the warm courtyard where spring flowers were blooming.

There is no me among those people.

Ni Ji stood on a high place and watched the cheerful group of people until those figures turned the corner and could no longer be seen.

Finally, he turned around, his face as cold as frosty, and walked towards the tall white tower alone.
