Chapter 24

A large piece of thick dark cloud slowly floated in from the east. The cloud layer was extremely thick, covering up the moonlight which was originally not bright, and the earth was suddenly plunged into darkness. The bright flashlight in Zhou Yi's hand became the main lighting equipment for the team at this time, and the dark and thin man easily pulled a car of people and ran towards the northwest.

The cold and biting night wind became even more noisy because of the man's acceleration. Jing Xia looked up at Zhou Yi in a daze. Just when the latter was so embarrassed that he could hardly maintain the smile on his face and wanted to ask questions, Jing Xia slowed down. Slowly tightening his brows, he asked, "Two... from City B? May I know their names?" His voice was suppressed in his throat, and it was unknown whether it was because of the cold evening wind or the speed of the car on the road. Steady, and the voice trembled a little.

Qi Yang stood at the front of the carriage and did not hear Jing Xia's faint voice, only Zhou Yi who was standing opposite Jing Xia and Ji Chuancheng who was beside him could hear it. His pretty and handsome brows were slightly frowned, Ji Chuan turned his head calmly and looked at Jing Xia.

In the silent and hazy darkness, the young man's exquisite eyes widened in horror, but he was only surprised for a while before he stopped the expression on his face. He swallowed, and explained: "I didn't expect people from City B to come here, so I'm a little curious. Zhou Yi, do you know their names?"

With a distance of more than half a meter, Zhou Yi did not notice Jing Xia's abnormality. He replied: "Because they and I are not in the same group, so I am not very familiar with them. But I heard that one of them is very powerful." Ice-type ability, and killed 3 C-level mutants in a small wave of mutant beast attacks on the Huangpu River half a month ago."

The fingers holding on to the railing tightened slightly, Jing Xia maintained a calm expression, and said with a smile: "It's really amazing to be able to kill three C-level mutants, maybe we can go see if we know each other this time. "

Zhou Yi was taken aback: "Do you know each other?"

Just as there are nearly a thousand evolutionaries in city S alone, the number of evolutionaries in City B is definitely not too small. The probability of being able to meet two people in a vast crowd is indeed very low.

Jing Xia shook her head with a smile: "No, I just think that they all come from the same place, and there may be some common language, so it will be easier to integrate here."

Zhou Yi nodded in understanding and didn't speak any more.

Jing Xia slowly closed his eyes, which gradually darkened, staring closely at the dark place on the car board, without saying a word. The dark night covered his expression, but the fingers holding on to the railing had already clenched deeply.

"Who are they?" The deep and elegant voice seemed a little ethereal in the night wind, Ji Chuancheng looked away from Jing Xia's left hand, and asked seemingly casually.

"Chi Chi Chi Chi!!!"

Suddenly hearing Ji Chuancheng's question, Jing Xia was startled, loosened his hand, and almost dropped the Jiji in his palm to the ground. Seeing this, Little Hei Tuanzi hurriedly climbed up his arms until he reached his shoulders before stopping his little fat legs, found a comfortable position and sat down on his buttocks.

The well-shaped eyes drooped, and Jing Xia hesitated for a while before raising her head and answering: "I guess... it might be Wu Jiqing and... Su Weishang. It's normal for them to come to S City, I told you before."

In such a public situation, Jing Xia did not point out everything, but Ji Chuancheng fully understood. Before leaving City B, in the afternoon before everything officially started, the handsome and handsome young man in front of him stood in the yellow and warm sunset, and told himself all the incredible things, including—

Some things at the base in S City.

Thinking of this, Ji Chuan lowered his fierce phoenix eyes, covering the expression in them.

Jing Xia came to City S with Wu Jiqing and Su Weishang's team, although according to him, Wu Jiqing should have arrived in City S two months later. But if it is true that the two of them have arrived in S City now, there is no doubt that history has changed from what Jing Xia said.

Wu Jiqing is an ice-type supernatural power. Although he still lacks actual combat experience, his supernatural power level is high enough to make him the main output force of the human side in the subsequent beast tide war. As for Su Weishang, who has the wind ability, his physical fitness can only be regarded as the middle to lower level among the evolutionaries, and his ability level is also medium, but his unexpected life-saving skills are very strong, and he can always save himself from danger in the wars of beast hordes.

The black shattered hair fell on his full forehead due to the night wind. Ji Chuancheng was silent for a long time, and opened his lips and said: "Maybe it's just a butterfly effect, it's very common. When I send Qi Yang to him, he should go I will accompany you to find those two places in city B." After a pause, Ji Chuancheng added: "Wait for me to go together." The last five words were said very lightly, but they brought With a solemn meaning that cannot be changed, Jing Xia was slightly stunned.

After a while, he nodded: "Okay."

As the night fell, a black shadow swiftly and violently passed through the darkness. If a bystander looks towards the middle of the road at this time, they can only see it in the blink of an eye. After hearing a dull heavy object dragging the floor with a "hula", the black shadow disappeared from the street to the end of the street.

When Jing Xia and the others arrived at the base headquarters in City S, less than ten minutes had passed.

After Zhou Yi said a few more words to the black and thin man, he waved his hands away with a smile. Seeing the man's back disappearing into the darkness again, Zhou Yi turned around to look at Jing Xia, and said, "I have already passed The special means first notified the headquarters of your arrival, and now we should be able to go in directly."

Jing Xia asked with a smile, "Did you notify me when you were talking to someone at the protective net?"

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "That's right. We have established a central contact method at the three main defense points. There is a person in the base whose ability is related to this. You should be able to see him in the future."

Jing Xia nodded slightly, a smile appeared on her lips, and said nothing more.

He naturally knows the unique contact method of S City, which is an extremely rare and special ability in the current apocalyptic communication barrier. However, this ability also has its flaws-it can only communicate within a short distance.

This flaw is fatal.

Sighing softly, Jing Xia lowered his head, and just as a trace of loss passed through his heart, he heard a low male voice sounding beside him: "Since Wu Jiqing and the others have come to S City, many things are already in place. There has been a change in perception. Have you ever thought about changing something and maintaining something?"

Jing Xia was slightly taken aback, he subconsciously raised his head to look at the tall and straight man beside him. I saw that the other party was staring at me with lowered eyes, serious eyes, as if asking solemnly.

After thinking for a while, Jing Xia slowly curled the corners of her lips, and replied with a smile: "Change some things that must be changed, just let nature take its course."

The voices of the two were extremely low, and they deliberately dragged their feet back, so that only the two of them could hear them.

At some point, the dark cloud covering most of the sky was gradually blown away by the wind. The moon was in the middle of the sky, illuminating the dark night around, and the bright and clear moonlight gently caressed the earth, and also made the young man's beautiful eyebrows more clear.

Ji Chuancheng looked at Jingxia for a long time before turning away.

A group of four walked towards the four-story building with vigorous steps.

The walls of the building are made of dark yellow artificial stone, supported by several milky-white Ionic-style arch columns, and the first floor is extremely high. On both sides of the baroque circular arch, there is a tall man standing , holding a black Luger AC in his hand, and vigilantly guarding his surroundings.

After Jing Xia and the others climbed the steps, they nodded to Zhou Yi, and then let them in. The eyes of the two lingered on Ji Chuancheng for a long time, and then Ji Chuancheng nodded slightly to them, and then the two of them stopped and stood at attention in unison, and gave a beautiful and standard military salute.

It wasn't until more than ten meters away that Zhou Yi turned his head in surprise and said, "You... are a soldier? This is the first time I've seen these former soldiers take such a serious attitude."

Ji Chuancheng nodded and said, "Well, I have been to City S before."

Zhou Yi smiled clearly when he heard the words, and then explained: "It's no wonder. Maybe you don't know it, and you don't know why, among these soldiers, there are very few people who have successfully evolved. The proportion of them is still very large, that is, The probability of failure is much higher than that of normal people. Of course, those who have successfully evolved are generally quite strong, so I guess these failures may be due to the difficulty of evolution."

Qi Yang, who was silent all the way and only looked around, heard this, and suddenly laughed lowly: "If it's as simple as you guessed, I can't think of it?" His tone was full of irony, and he seemed to be sneering look like.

Zhou Yi glanced at him indifferently, and said in a low voice: "I think you are dumb." Then, ignoring Qi Yang's increasingly dangerous smile, he continued to say to Ji Chuancheng: "What you saw just now Those two people were brought over by the lunatics from the research institute, and neither of them has evolved, but they are also very strong, much stronger than ordinary people."

Ji Chuancheng hummed thoughtfully, and didn't say any more.

At that time, Zhou Yi seemed to have gotten used to Ji Chuan's cold appearance, and he even felt a little strangely in his heart that this cold appearance was much more pleasing to the eye than the dumb neurotic just now.

"It's getting late now, and the other two people in your team should have arrived at their lodgings by now. After the people in the research institute conduct some investigations on Jing Xia's abilities, you can also go to rest first." As he said that, Zhou Yi led Jing Xia and the others to turn a corner, then walked through a French romantic corridor and entered another small two-story house.

Along the way, people greeted Zhou Yi with a smile from time to time, and then looked at Jing Xia and the others with curious eyes. Bathed in such voices and sights, Jing Xia followed Zhou Yi into the door, and his vision suddenly became clear.

Different from the darkness outside the headquarters, in fact, after entering this large majestic and beautiful building complex, Jingxia felt as if she had returned to the days before the end of the world. Although the lighting equipment is a little lacking, it can already make people walk normally, and once entering this wide and long two-story small bungalow, the lights are shining like before.

Not long after Jing Xia came to S City in her previous life, she encountered the first large-scale beast horde. Nearly ten thousand mutated beasts lay dormant at the bottom of the Huangpu River along the Huangpu River from the mouth of the sea, and finally broke out suddenly in the most crowded and bustling area, attacking and attacking, killing tens of thousands of people in just over an hour, and finally A piece of base camp of evolutionists in S City was razed to the ground.

And this place, Jingxia only walked for two or three days before it was completely returned to the loess. This entry, for Jing Xia, can be said to be a revisit of the old place, and it can also be said to be mixed with an indescribable sense of strangeness. He looked around with a feeling of novelty and emotion. Compared with the calm Ji Chuancheng and the uninterested Qi Yang, it seemed like he was here for the first time.

"Then Jing Xia will follow me to the research institute first, as for..." Zhou Yi paused for a moment before realizing that Ji Chuancheng and Qi Yang didn't tell him their names: "As for you, just wait here first, We'll be out soon."

Ji Chuancheng shook his head, pointing at Qi Yang with a relaxed and relaxed face: "I will also send him to the research institute and hand him over to Professor Qi."

Zhou Yi was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, then come with me."

As soon as Zhou Yi finished speaking, the group of people raised their feet and before they took two steps, Jing Xia heard a gentle voice from around the corner. The crisp sound will make people feel good.

"Jiqing, why did you get distracted during training today? You almost got hurt by that d-level mutant brown bear. You were so careless."

What responded to him was a hearty and clean male voice: "Xiao Shang, don't worry, it's just a small accident, I promise there will be no next time."

"You are indeed too careless. I almost thought you were going to enter the infirmary. But I believe in your strength, you will never..." The voice stopped abruptly, and a beautiful and delicate face slowly appeared from around the corner Coming out, the boy's light-colored pupils shrank slightly when he saw Jing Xia, and then quickly returned to normal.

He glanced at Zhou Yi and the others seemingly inadvertently, and his eyes stayed on Ji Chuancheng for half a second, then his bright red lips slowly opened a beautiful arc, revealing an elegant smile, and said: "Brother? Why are you here?"
