The memory that was already very vague suddenly resurfaced in his mind.
Su Shi held the other's outstretched hand, looked up, his eyes were slightly bright: "Is it you?"
"It's me, you can rest assured, it's safe here."
Dana responded with a smile, leaned slightly, let the two sit down in front of the sofa, and handed him a cup of hot cocoa: "I heard you often drink this, I'm not as good as Nuya, I don't know if you will won't like it."
"Thank you."
Su Shi raised his head and smiled, took the cup and took a sip, holding it in his hand and slowly warming it.
The slightly hot temperature passed through the wall of the cup and landed on the palm of the hand, as if some kind of emotional temperature also quietly soaked through the chest, and fell safely somewhere in the bottom of my heart.
"It should be me thanking you."
Dyna spoke softly, handed another cup of coffee to Lu Zhuo, and nodded politely at him: "Is this Mr. Lu?"
Lu Zhuo nodded to him, took the coffee and thanked him, his eyes fell thoughtfully on the person who looked almost the same as his lover in the first world.
Although the appearance was the same, the marshal in front of him was obviously more serious, even if he only spoke peacefully, he still revealed the majesty of being in a high position for a long time.
His age still seems to be in the middle age, but his eyes are already very vicissitudes, the brows are habitually frowning, and deep lines have already fallen.
He seemed to be used to being unsmiling, and only when he looked at Su Shi, there would be some signs of gentleness briefly in those lines of determination.
As if aware of his gaze, Dana smiled apologetically, leaned slightly and said slowly: "I'm sorry, please forgive my rudeness, Mr. Lu. I just—"
The voice suddenly stopped, Dana supported the table with one hand, and turned to look at Su Shi.
His figure instinctively straightened up again, his slightly frowning brows gradually unfurled, revealing a faint smile of regret.
"Just when I see you, I can't help but feel—like fulfilling a long, long dream..."
He didn't go on talking, his Adam's apple moved, and he slowly went back to the table and sat down, looking down at his fingertips. Because of holding the gun all the year round, those fingers had calluses that could not be ignored, and the index finger was habitually slightly bent.
It's the pose that can only be used to hold a gun.
Dana sat at the table and was silent for a while before finally laughing lightly.
When he smiled like this, the fierceness washed out by the blood on his body was actually diluted a lot, and he vaguely showed the high-spirited look of the year.
"I never thought that my life could end with the name of a 'hero'."
The body was covered with the national flag, and he returned to the camp he guarded in a fair manner, and was buried in the name of a hero—that was something he had kept deep in his heart for many years, and he only dared to think about it quietly in the dead of night, but he did not dare to think about it when he was awake. A dream of extravagance.
Dana's eyes were faintly red, but the corners of her mouth showed a trance smile: "I should thank you. I saw your ending, as if it were my own. I didn't even have that kind of dream... "
He also had a high-spirited boyhood, with all the dreams a boy should have. At that time, he never thought that he would embark on such a path.
Living in darkness forever, being scolded by the compatriots he sheltered, and despised as a traitor. I poured a cavity of blood into it, but what I received was only boundless cold, so I had no choice but to smash those dreams to pieces, and swallowed them with cold tears and blood.
There is only the seemingly endless pretense and patience left, only the despair and hesitation that sometimes even does not know who he is, and only the difficulty of walking, walking on thin ice.
In the end there was nothing left.
Su Shi was silent, and slowly tightened his hand holding the mug.
A little warm weight suddenly fell on his knees, and he raised his head subconsciously, and Lu Zhuo's dark and deep pupils shone with quiet concern.
"I accepted your love."
Handing the hot cocoa in one hand, Su Shi lightly covered the hand on his lap, shook his head at him, looked at the marshal in front of him and said slowly: "That's my first mission world , in order to help the host complete the task, I watched your video. In fact, according to the regulations, I should follow your path... "
That was the first novice world, to make him adapt to the rhythm of being blamed, and it was a dungeon world generated as a training. Dana is also the only host that doesn't dissipate spontaneously, nor does he take over midway.
The other party really walked through this life alone, and finally, bearing the reputation of a traitor, fell alone in the darkness before dawn.
He should have lived his life like this. As a result, as soon as some talents came, everything suddenly changed unexpectedly, and they went straight to the past in another uncontrollable direction.
At that time, he was focused on completing the task, and he was so poor that he felt that seeing Vino every day was a little more troublesome, but he didn't expect that Dana actually envied him instead.
"I should thank you, and I should also thank Mr. Lu. Without either of the two of you, it would be impossible to bring everything to the final conclusion."
Seeing the inconspicuous little movements of the two, Dana actually showed a soft understanding smile on his face, and added in a gentle voice, and then sighed softly after a moment of pause: "Wei Nuo, I I should have some impression of him..."
He remembered that they were classmates in the military academy, that the other party was the leader of the rebel army, and that the real identity of that person was actually His Royal Highness. But to him, these are just cold information.
At the beginning, he didn't have the energy to hope for his own warmth, let alone some further close and solid connections.
"Before I saw your performance, I didn't even think about it. There are so many ways to explain my difficulties without opening my mouth."
Focusing on Su Shi, Dana smiled gently at him, and suddenly said slowly: "Tell me—if I follow your example, will he also guess my difficulties, and then maybe also Can you be friends and sit down with me and have a good talk?"
…
When he brought up his unbearable past, Su Shi immediately felt a deep heartache. He took a deep breath before opening his mouth, but Lu Zhuo answered before him: "Yes."
Su Shi was startled, and subconsciously raised his head to look at him.
Lu Zhuo flipped the hand on his knee, put that hand firmly in the palm of his hand, silently clenched it, and continued to speak.
"Although I can import my own data into existing characters, I can't completely reverse the three views and personalities of those characters. I can only modify the surrounding codes. So as long as the characters I choose, they only need a little Where it is credible, it is possible to accept all truths."
"So—I actually had a chance to be forgiven, didn't I?"
Dana asked softly, a very bright light suddenly lit up in his eyes, and there was a distinct lyrical smile on his usual majestic and solemn face.
"So it's not that everyone doesn't believe me, it's just that I'm too cautious and have never tried it. If I were like you, secretly playing tricks and making a few harmless mistakes, maybe I could have many friends in the first place of… "
His expression suddenly soared like a young man, even just imagining such a possibility, unexpectedly made him feel relieved and happy like never before.
"Most definitely."
Seeing the sudden look on his face, Su Shi's heart was burning slightly, his eyes were soaked with warmth, he got up and said in a warm voice: "The way I walked was originally your way, Marshal Dana, the ending you saw is just Things are just as they should be.”
Dana's breathing was slightly stagnant, his chest heaved for a while, and finally he took a step forward and gave him a strong hug.
With the protection of the marshal, the two not only recovered their strength safely in the office, but even enjoyed a simple but delicious dinner.
It wasn't until late at night that Dana found out two sets of military uniforms and asked Su Shi and Lu Zhuo to put them on, and drove the patrol boat to send them out of the military headquarters.
"The food in the army is still too simple. If we have a chance to meet again, I will treat you to a good meal."
Stopping the patrol boat, Dana took out a bag of crystals and handed it to Su Shi, then moved away from the pilot's seat of the patrol boat, motioned for Lu Zhuo to continue driving, and turned to Su Shi with concern.
"The spar reserves that can be freely disposed of in the army are also limited. You should use these first. According to our observations, some people from the same background as you will attack the same kind to snatch the necessary energy items. You must be more careful after you go out , except for each other, don't trust anyone around you too much."
"Thanks, we'll keep an eye out."
Su Shicheng responded, seeing his movements, he couldn't hold back after all, and asked with concern: "Give us so many things, is it all right where you are?"
It was already an unexpected joy to get the spar. With the military uniform, you can smoothly sneak into most places in the army, and your safety is guaranteed. The difficulty of passing the customs has been greatly reduced.
Seeing that Dana even planned to stay on the patrol boat, even though he was mentally prepared, Su Shi was still taken aback by the other party's extravagant handwriting.
"Don't worry, this is just a trivial matter."
Dana nodded slightly, patted him on the shoulder, and suddenly showed a faint smile in his eyes: "These wrists that hide from the world are as simple as eating and drinking to me, aren't they?"
Back then, the core generals who were able to protect the entire rebel army under the eyes of the Terence government were only smuggled out of a patrol boat, which was indeed something that could be done with a wave of hands.
He also came from that road. Of course, Su Shi knew what the other party was referring to, and he couldn't help but laugh when he heard the words. Finally, he stopped declining and thanked him warmly.
Dana's expression brightened obviously, and he spoke a few more words with them, left the patrol boat, and disappeared into the vast night.
The night was already very deep, and the wind was a bit chilly. Su Shi unbuttoned the discipline button with one hand, and stood by the porthole looking at the gradually distant scenery of the military camp.
A warm breath suddenly covered his back, strong arms wrapped around his body, the air flow gently brushed past his ears, and gently rubbed against his cheeks.
Su Shi was itchy from being rubbed by him, so he couldn't help but chuckled, and the atmosphere of reminiscing about the past that had finally arisen disappeared completely, and he held Lu Zhuo's hand and patted it.
"Really, you have more credit than me. I just accidentally made a few mistakes that are common to beginners, and you are the one who chased me and insisted on saying that I had difficulties, and then smashed all my pots... "
"At that time, I only had the most basic core data, and I thought I was also a character in the plot. Before I met you, I was really deceived by you for five years."
Handing over the work of driving to the active system bell, Lu Zhuo hugged him, kissed his cheek, and gently rubbed the end of his hair: "You don't remember anything, and you have accepted the task of taking the blame again. ... I never thought that you would still feel sorry for me when you saw me. "
No, at that time, I really felt sorry for the experience point.
The other party hadn't solved the misunderstanding at the time. Su Shi was inexplicably guilty, and coughed lightly before opening his mouth, but he was already supported by those arms and turned around, meeting the bright smile in the dark pupils.
"I know, I still won't be jealous of your experience."
…
But I will be jealous with the pot.
It probably became a habit to hold back the blame in the world below, Su Shi was carried into his arms as he walked, and the silent barrage was still running in his heart.
Helpless soft indulgence appeared in Lu Zhuo's eyes, he lowered his head to his forehead, rubbed it lightly, and his voice softened: "You were already feeling very uncomfortable at that time, but you were still willing to hide it from me... I know, you are Don't want to worry me."
His voice was faintly hoarse, his arms were slightly tightened, and delicate kisses fell on the eyelashes of the person in his arms.
The itchy sensation penetrated through the eyelashes and numbly spread deep into his body. Su Shi closed his eyes instinctively, and his heart skipped a beat.
He didn't realize when the other party was referring to.
At that time, although he lost the memory of the two meeting, he somehow didn't know how to reject the warmth from the other party. In the end, Su Shi had already moved, so he gave up the idea of continuing to struggle and resist, staying in the new country and government, and walking with the other party.
But the villain's dying struggle broke those unrealistic assumptions.
The antimatter missile that was almost detonated, the intense radiation, and the destroyed body couldn't stop the blood from splashing down. The first farewell he left to his lover was really hasty and cruel, but what Lu Zhuo brought up again was only the moment of tenderness when he endured the pain and asked him to go out.
"I think you're telling me to love you by mentioning this now..."
His chest was sore and swollen, Su Shi sighed helplessly, and being held by him honestly, he raised his hand to slightly push away the head that was rubbing against his face, and said solemnly: "I promise, I will Nothing like that will happen.”
Lu Zhuo's eyes lit up, the corners of his lips curled up in relief, he still hugged him like a treasure and did not let go, no matter how you looked at it, it was still inexplicably distressing.
Su Shi's heart softened, so he fished him over and kissed him again. Just when I was about to comfort him again, the person who was terribly wronged just now suddenly leaned over, rubbed against his ear, and struck while the iron was hot with peace of mind: "Then my first world caused you to fail to get any experience points, why don't you Are you mad at me?"
"..."
Su Shi was angry, and the emotion that had just arisen disappeared in an instant.
After making such a big circle, it turned out that he was waiting here.
Thinking of the poor and shabby past, although he clearly knew that the other party had good intentions and worked hard for himself, Su Shi still couldn't understand the bitterness and hatred at the beginning, and he gritted his teeth and took a deep breath.
"You are more than the first world, so I didn't get experience points..."
Except for the additional missions like plug-ins and the friendly support of dark friends, he simply didn't get any serious experience points in every world.
Even took the bottom one.
Su Shi couldn't even keep the last single seedling pot, and Su Shi's heart ached when he thought about it. Just as he was about to scold his prodigal lover, the system suddenly turned on the emergency indicator light, and the patrol boat, which was running at a steady speed, also turned around suddenly, quickly turned on the stealth mode, and quietly hid in the woods.
"If there is a situation, I will go and see."
Lu Zhuo immediately opened his mouth, touched a code with the tacitly coordinated system, returned to the cockpit in a vigorous figure, and opened the external observation and monitoring.
Or the immediate business is more important. Su Shi didn't even bother to dig up old accounts, so he quickly followed him: "What's going on, what's the matter?"
"It's the patrol that's chasing the intruders. Let's hide here for a while and go out after we've settled down."
Lu Zhuo supported the console with one hand, stretched his arms around his lover's body, told him to check the monitoring panel more conveniently, and replied in a low voice.
I don't know what the person running in front stole. This time the pursuit is particularly powerful. Judging from the posture, almost the entire patrol team is frantically chasing and intercepting. They were also driving military patrol boats. When encountering this kind of pursuit, it was hard to explain whether they could keep up or not. It would be better to avoid the limelight here.
Many things that the examinee needs are in the hands of the military, and it is not uncommon for them to be hunted down. This time it is similar, maybe it was just a little accidental.
Su Shi nodded, but was also reminded by the situation in front of him, and poured out the spar Dana gave them from his pocket: "First light up the most important combat skills, and save the rest first, maybe it will happen at any time." There will be emergencies.”
The battle strength of the two is equally important, and neither of them can drag each other down. Lu Zhuo nodded slightly, asked the system to open the protective cover, took a few crystals and concentrated on absorbing it, Su Shi also seized the rare spare time, and closed his eyes to absorb the remaining energy.
After a sleepless night, when the sky turned bright, golden flames burst out from around Lu Zhuo, and then quietly extinguished.
Su Shi has also unlocked the special skills of fighting and mental power, opened his eyes and moved his slightly stiff body, met his lover's concerned gaze, and nodded with a smile.
Although there are many crises, after all, he already has the ability to stand by, and no matter what, he has become more confident. After the two agreed on a route, they got off the patrol boat together, told the system to keep an eye on the house, and sneaked into the relatively safe residential area.
To live in this world for at least fifteen days, they can't stay in the patrol boat all the time, they have to go out to find food and water. And Su Shi still has the task of taking the blame in his hands. Although he intends to complete it, he still hasn't been able to figure out a safe enough clue.
The simplest and easiest misunderstanding, and the one that may get the highest score is undoubtedly to make everyone think that they have [PO-T] in their hands, so they hunted and surrounded them all over the world, and chased them until the end of the final assessment.
Su Shi was confident that he would escape with his lover, but he didn't have the confidence to be misunderstood that the hot potato was in his hands. Even if Lu Zhuo is blamed like the last final assessment, and the misunderstanding value is not the joint property of the husband and wife, it is likely to repeat the mistakes of the previous world in the end.
The two discussed it all the way, but there was no progress, so they had to put the matter aside, quickly collected food and water sources, and prepared to go back to the patrol boat first.
On the way back, the situation seemed to have changed unexpectedly.
In just a short journey, they have encountered four or five inexplicable interceptions.
The frequency became suddenly dense, and the intensity was not like last night's routine, but chasing them endlessly, as if returning to the situation of the last assessment.
This time, the two of them already had strong combat effectiveness. Although the situation was inexplicably severe, they didn't suffer too much. Fighting a way out of the siege and interception, he finally returned to the patrol boat smoothly, turned on the concealment function and jumped into the sky, away from the right and wrong place below.
"I haven't had time to do anything... Did someone plant something on you before the two of us met?"
Of course it's a good thing to fall out of the sky, but after all, it came too strangely. Su Shi really couldn't figure it out, and tried to pin his hopes on his lover, but Lu Zhuo looked equally confused, and shook his head slightly: "I deliberately avoided them, and came all the way to find you, without any contact with anyone. Even if they If you want to find a scapegoat, I'm afraid I won't be able to think of it."
It does make sense.
Su Shi nodded thoughtfully, lowered his eyes and fell silent.
Looking at the posture of those people, it is clear that [PO-T] is on them.
What Lu Zhuo said was right. When the two returned to this world, they both ran to meet each other without doing anything. After meeting, they escaped the pursuit and met Dana not long after. With Dana's ability, it is absolutely impossible for them to reveal their identities.
No matter how you say it, this pot is really weird.
"Will it be related to the hunt last night? I remember that there was a lot of noise at the time. Could it be because [PO-T] was stolen that the entire patrol team was sent out to hunt it down, and it is still on high alert now?"
Lu Zhuo thought about it, and Su Shi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, but he frowned and shook his head: "The reasoning makes sense, but I still can't explain why those people just decided that we were thieves and chased us all the way. We will never let you down…”
It's a good thing to have the blame, but the blame comes too easily, which makes the two of them faintly uneasy.
Just wondering what was going on, the patrol boat's communication alert suddenly sounded.
Su Shi got up and went over, pressed the button, and Dana's face appeared on the screen: "Friends, are you all right?"
"Okay, is there something wrong?"
Dana would not contact them for no reason. Su Shi lifted his spirits and looked up at the display screen: "We have encountered several interceptions today, and I don't know what happened. Is the real [PO-T] stolen? ?”
"Yes, and I just received news that the person who stole [PO-T] is using your name, and the road ahead may be a little dangerous."
Dana nodded, and then sent over several documents and pictures that had just been reported, and continued talking.
"I don't know his identity, but I can be sure that he is not you. Although his appearance is exactly the same as yours, he is much more ostentatious than you in his actions. He was in full view last night, with magical gorgeousness You stole [PO-T] by means, and left your name in extremely arrogant cursive, you must be more careful... "
