It was several hours before the two of them returned to the sight of everyone at the base. Facing the probing or teasing gazes of everyone on the base, Ning Xingzhou blushed, and his heart was full of embarrassment and regret.
He was really kicked in the head by a donkey, how could he let Li Yuan do whatever he wanted? If he did this kind of thing on the first day he came to the base, he wouldn't have any face in the future.
Thinking of this, Ning Xingzhou glared at Li Yuan viciously. It's a pity that someone was not ashamed, but proud. The hand under the table gently scratched his palm, smiling ambiguously.
"Uh... Boss, there is a situation that I need to report to you." Wu Tong hesitated for a while, and was forced to speak boldly under the instigation of the eyes of the people around him.
Based on her eyesight, she didn't want to disturb the boss's rare good humor, but the severity of this matter made her have to be the warrior who was in trouble.
Besides, they originally gathered here to discuss business matters, but the sudden return of the boss disrupted their situation, and she was just trying to set things right, she was right!
"What's the matter?" Li Yuan's eyes still stayed on Ning Xingzhou, and he refused to move away. His deep voice was calm and sounded extremely perfunctory.
"..." The corners of Wu Tong's mouth twitched, and he didn't expect that his boss would be so in love with his brain. With that lack of interest, he just said - don't bother me, I'm busy with my partner.
"It's like this. The number of people who defected to our base has doubled in the past two days. Basically, they escaped from a few small bases in the east."
Although Wutong complained wildly in his heart, he didn't show it at all on the surface. He still did his best when he reported his work, "And in the past two days, the Shouwang base, Zhonghai base, and Shengguang base have lost contact one after another. These bases are the leaders in the eastern region. After the loss of contact, all survivor bases became panicked."
After the apocalypse, many survivor bases have established connections. Although some of them have selfish intentions to annex other bases, at any rate, it can be regarded as an "alliance" that humans have managed to maintain after the apocalypse. Now, several bases have lost contact one after another. Everyone can't see the situation clearly, so everyone is naturally in danger.
"I felt that this matter was a little weird, so I took the initiative to arrange for someone to investigate, and got a piece of quite weird video data." Indus and Liu frowned, feeling a strong sense of unease in his heart.
When she got the video data, she immediately called the veterans of the base to discuss it, but she didn't dare to reveal any information to the outside world. After all, the video was really...
"What image?" Ning Xingzhou's eyes widened, his curiosity was aroused, his heart was beating fast, he had a faint premonition that the image in Wutong's mouth might have something he wanted.
Wutong pondered for a moment, and after getting a signal from Li Yuan, she took out a stone-like object. After some operations, a slightly blurred image appeared on the wall.
As far as the eye can see, there are flames all over the sky. The black flames are like the ghost fire from hell, devouring everything. Wherever the black flames pass, all living things and dead things are reduced to powder. The huge city, There is no life.
In a sea of flames, if you look intently, you can vaguely see something wriggling in the center of the flames.
The owner of the image stone should also be aware of this. The camera zoomed in and out, and finally fixed on the human figure outlined by the flame in the center of the flame.
The black flame kept shaking, and the outline of the "Fire Man" became clearer and clearer. Perhaps the person holding the image stone realized something, his hands were shaking, and even the image was trembling.
The black flame was condensed to the extreme, like a real substance. From a distance, it looked like a layer of black skin wrapped around the "burning man". "Fireman" took shape, it tilted its head in a humane way, and glanced in the direction of the camera.
The screen shook for a moment, and the "Fire Man" in the image suddenly disappeared in place. When it reappeared, it was very close at hand. The face of "Fire Man" magnified countless times appeared in the image, showing a weird smile...
As soon as the screen goes black, the video ends here. You don't need to ask, what is the end of the person who risked his life to collect the video. Fortunately, the video was sent back in real time, so that person did not sacrifice in vain.
After watching the video materials, the conference room fell into a honeyed silence.
The "Fire Man" in the picture has no skin and flesh, only an outline purely outlined by flames, but everyone present is absolutely certain that the "Fire Man" in the image is exactly the same as Li Yuan.
Coincidentally, Li Yuan's greatest ultimate move was that terrifying black flame that could not be extinguished artificially.
"He and you... seem to have the same ability..." Ning Xingzhou stared at the wall where the video was just played, unable to recover for a long time. He faintly felt that something was wrong, and his heart was empty, as if something was missing.
He has been mixing with Li Yuan all the time, and he feels more clearly than anyone else that the terrifying black flame in the picture, and the flame that Li Yuan possessed... are one thing at all.
But... what is going on? The guy in the video, who looks like a human but is not human...what does it have to do with Li Yuan
Ning Xingzhou expressed the thoughts of everyone present here. They naturally realized the high degree of connection between the two, but no one dared to say this first. After all, he said that his boss was similar to that terrifying monster that destroyed a city at every turn. Isn't this looking for a beating
"After this image came back, I immediately blocked the news. Except for a few veterans present, no one else in the base knew about it." After Wu Tong finished the basic situation, he stopped talking and just waited for Li Yuan instruct.
The "Fire Man" in this video is extremely similar to the boss. Once it gets out, other survivor bases will probably point their fingers at Li Yuan, and a joint crusade is inevitable. Although their "Oasis" is not afraid, they survived the end of the world Those who are limited are inherently limited, so there is really no need to spend energy on killing each other.
With that time, it is better to think about how to build the entertainment facilities of the base to make the boss happy.
"Well, there is a little resemblance." Li Yuan's eyes darkened slightly, and the heaviness in his eyes was fleeting. He looked at Ning Xingzhou, the corners of his mouth slightly curved, and teased: "However, I should be much more handsome than him. Bar?"
"..." Ning Xingzhou was a little speechless, and he didn't know what Li Yuan was thinking. He could be so unscrupulous under such a serious situation. He gave the other party a blank look, and replied extremely perfunctorily: "Yeah, you're handsome. handsome."
Li Yuan grinned, like a kid who got a compliment. He leaned forward and kissed Ning Xingzhou's cheeks twice, with a shy expression on his face.
Everyone at the base: "..."
Why didn't they realize before that their boss is so in love with brains? Or, in the eyes of their boss, this big and difficult matter is just a trivial matter
Li Yuan enjoys the high-profile show of affection in front of everyone, but Ning Xingzhou finds it extremely awkward. In his eyes, intimacy is a matter between two people, and he doesn't like to let others watch.
As if aware of Ning Xingzhou's subtle unhappiness, Li Yuan laughed, and told his subordinates in the base: "I know about this matter, and you don't need to worry about the rest, just keep everything as usual."
He looked at the previously projected wall, thinking of the conscious body that had tortured him for countless years, the murderous aura in his eyes almost solidified, "I'll deal with that garbage."
After speaking, he sullenly pulled Ning Xingzhou away.
That guy's movements were faster than he imagined. There is not much time left for him.
…
"Hey, do you know something?" Following Li Yuan away from the public eye, Ning Xingzhou frowned slightly, feeling more and more disobedient in his heart. He always felt that Li Yuan's actions today showed a little anxiety everywhere, as if he was in a hurry to do something.
"Huh? What did you call me?" Li Yuan raised his brows slightly and asked.
"Ah Yuan~~" Ning Xingzhou blinked and called obediently. The ending sound is deliberately long, revealing a strong coquettish meaning.
He shook Li Yuan's arm, looked at Li Yuan eagerly, "That image...do you know something? Tell me~'"
Li Yuan was silent for a moment, and finally raised his hand to touch Ning Xingzhou's head, and sighed, "It's the enemy."
He didn't tell Ning Xingzhou that the "burning man" was the disaster consciousness that Ning Xingzhou had mentioned, and he was not only one with him, but also an old enemy.
"Is it very powerful? Better than you?" Ning Xingzhou asked hesitantly, thinking of their identical abilities.
Li Yuan was silent for a few seconds, even if he didn't want to admit it, he had to look directly at the strength of the enemy this time, "It's hard to tell the difference."
Ning Xingzhou was startled, and an ominous premonition slowly rose. He knew very well that if Li Yuan said such words as indistinguishable, the strength of the other party might be ridiculously high. There is still more than that.
"It's okay, you still have me, I will help you." Even though his heart was a little heavy, Ning Xingzhou still showed a smile, comforting him with soft words.
Li Yuan lowered his eyelids and hugged Ning Xingzhou tightly in his arms, feeling something moved in his heart. His baby is always so gentle and gentle, standing by his side without hesitation, no matter why.
He cupped Ning Xingzhou's cheeks, brushed his fingertips over the broken hair on the other's forehead, fixed his eyes on Ning Xingzhou without blinking, and said in a deep and gentle voice, "Did I tell you?" , I really... love you very much."
How much do you love? Most of the time, it's life-saving.
Therefore, when Ning Xingzhou proposed a gamble with his life as a bargaining chip, he followed without hesitation. It's just that he can have no hesitation, but he will never allow Ning Xingzhou to do the same.
"Why are you so disgusting all of a sudden?" Ning Xingzhou's complexion was reddish, and he really had no resistance to Li Yuan's love words.
"I just want to emphasize it all of a sudden." Li Yuan chuckled, and kissed Ning Xingzhou on the forehead. Immediately afterwards, he closed his eyes, lowered his head slightly, and pressed his forehead against Ning Xingzhou's.
Ning Xingzhou only felt his forehead burn, as if something had poured in, a little strange.
"It's stamped, but it's mine." Looking at the black flame mark on Ning Xingzhou's forehead, Li Yuan twitched his lips and smiled wantonly.
"Slick tongue." Ning Xingzhou said coquettishly, but there was no sense of blame. From an angle he couldn't see, the black flame imprint on his forehead became deeper and more vivid, as if... had life.
Li Yuan lowered his eyes and looked at the other party, his eyes were full of deep affection.
As long as Ning Xingzhou can live well, no matter whether he succeeds or fails in this big gamble, he will have no regrets. All that's left is to have a good fight with that calamity body.
After winning, he returned to Ning Xingzhou with the cheek to receive an education. Even if he stalked Ning Xingzhou, he would stay with Ning Xingzhou forever and never be separated again.
If you lose...
No, he won't lose.
And never lose.
