Chapter 623 Three people traveling together
Chapter 623 Three people traveling together
"Qi Yan, we are ready to leave."
"Ah."
"Can you give us a ride?"
"Okay, let's go now?"
"Can you...can you look at me when you talk to me?"
Eldo looked puzzled: "Why were you staring at Red the whole time? Is there something on his face?"
Reid was sweating coldly when Qi Yan stared at him. He tightened his face towel and took the initiative to say:
"There is a cluster of Originium crystals on my face."
Eldo: “…”
Are you sure you want to tell this kind of hell joke to lighten the mood?
Seeing Eldo staring at him speechlessly, Red coughed dryly and mustered up the courage to look at Qi Yan.
Eldo: “…”
Having successfully become a background board, Eldo pursed his lips, took two steps back, folded his arms and began to watch the show.
There was a moment of silence among the three of them, and finally Red was the first to speak:
"Qi Yan, I admit that I am very afraid of you, but at the same time I owe you a favor."
"How to say?"
Qi Yan stared at the strand of hair sticking out from under the brim of Reid's hat, his fingers ready to move.
Realizing that the guy in front of him was still holding a grudge, Red took a step back in fear:
"I only cut off a strand of your hair during the fight, and you ripped out a handful of my hair in retaliation, and later asked Maenna to travel thousands of miles to beat me up. You're not still holding a grudge against me, are you?"
"How is that possible? I, Qi Xiaobai, never hold grudges." A sunny smile broke out on Qi Yan's face.
Reid was skeptical about this, but he forced himself to calm down and said seriously:
"No matter what, you asked Maenna to protect Susie. I will remember this favor. If you need anything in the future, I will do my best to help you."
Qi Yan couldn't help but laugh when he heard Reid's words:
"Little Susie is also my piggy girl. I'm not protecting her for any favors."
"She's not a pig!" Red corrected.
"It does not matter."
"This is very important. If you shout at her like that, she will electrocute you with her Originium technique."
"..."
Qi Yan raised the corners of his mouth silently.
Red and Eldo both took half a step back.
Why does this guy seem even more excited? !
Eldo looked at Qi Yan with a strange expression, but Red accepted it very quickly.
Considering Qi Yan's mental state, this little habit doesn't seem so strange.
"Ahem, actually I've always had some questions."
Red suppressed his wild thoughts and asked, "Why do you know Susie and foresee what happened in Karaton City?
Everyone says that you have unparalleled strategy and use the world as a chessboard and all living beings as chess pieces, but could it be that even an ordinary little girl in the city of Karaton and an ordinary fire are part of your plan?
Or... is what happened in Karaton unusual?"
Qi Yan spread his hands and didn't answer immediately. He turned around and led the two of them out of the Duke of Cumberland's Palace.
The two men followed him subconsciously, their heartstrings gradually tightening, preparing themselves to meet the tip of the iceberg of a potentially grand and shocking plan.
Qi Yan walked ahead with his hands behind his back, his tone carrying some emotion:
"The incident in Karaton City is not an ordinary matter."
Reid's eyes narrowed: "Is Susie involved in some major incident?"
Qi Yan said without even turning his head:
"A fire, a disaster that can cause someone to mentally collapse and self-destruct, is just commonplace in your eyes?
What Susie has been through, the infighting among the councillors of Karaton City, the struggles of the infected, are these just ordinary things? "
"There is no shortage of suffering in this land," Red said softly.
“But we cannot treat suffering as an ordinary thing. Doing so will only numb ourselves. Even when the green grass is pressed under the stones, it still struggles to raise its head in resistance.”
After hearing Qi Yan's words, Eldo and Red fell silent at the same time.
The two followed behind Qi Yan, and there was something strange in their eyes when they looked at his back.
Qi Yan's heart might not be as cold and weird as the rumors say.
Eldo recalled his meeting and acquaintance with Qi Yan, and his reunion with his captain in Rhodes Island.
That guy's daily routine now is to wander around Rhodes Island in the wheelchair that Qi Yan brought back for him from Columbia, chatting and talking nonsense with the operators.
A trace of relief and envy flashed across Eldo's eyes, and he lowered his head and shook it in amusement.
Reid also recalled his meeting and acquaintance with Qi Yan, and then... he couldn't help but shudder.
He shook his head to get rid of the memories in his mind and asked:
"So, underneath your cynical disguise, you actually have a kind heart that cares about all living beings on this earth?"
Qi Yan did not stop walking, turned around and grinned:
"Dreaming in broad daylight?
I just think little Susie is cute. After all, who can resist a cute pink cat? "
Eldo: “…”
Reid: "..."
Qi Yan ignored the two people's miserable expressions, retracted his gaze, and waved his hand:
"Only you can save yourselves. I don't have that ability. I can only use Deus Ex Machina to destroy this land.
That’s why this land needs the Integration Movement and Rhodes Island.”
The two of them were stunned at the same time.
Eldo didn't know what he was thinking about. He took a deep breath and lowered his head in thought.
Qi Yan and the other two left the Duke's Mansion and came to the streets of the central area.
The streets were empty and sparsely populated, but clusters of black Originium could be seen everywhere.
This city area did not experience Qi Yan's baptism of blood. After the natural disaster, the source stone clusters continued to grow, and there was even a tendency that the number of living people in the city would exceed that of the city.
Even the most capable statistical experts cannot calculate how many people will be infected with oripathy, and how many people will quickly die from the disaster due to lack of knowledge on how to prevent and suppress oripathy.
"Are you sure you want to leave here?"
Qi Yan casually broke off a piece of source stone and played with it in his hand.
Seeing this, Eldo was so frightened that he pulled Red away from him.
Reid did not struggle. He nodded first, then suddenly shook his head. Finally, he remembered that Qi Yan had his back to him.
He coughed lightly and told his inner plan:
"Eldor must leave. He has no fighting ability. Londinium is too dangerous for him. And Nine is also very sad because of Eldor's sacrifice. She needs to know this news."
Eldo suppressed the strange feeling of being "sacrificed" in his heart and continued:
"But we are not planning to flee Londinium. As you said, the Integration Movement is still needed.
After we join up with the Nine, we will immediately rush back with the Reunion team. The number of infected people here will only increase as the war gradually escalates. "
"And then?" Qi Yan tossed the Originium in his hand and asked casually, "You brought them back to die?
You also said that this is a war. Even if Jiu and Tallulah are strong, it is nothing but a pipe dream to lead a group of rabble and hope to develop and survive in the war. "
Eldo took a deep breath, ignored Red's eyes and said firmly:
"I want to join your two mobile plots."
Qi Yan stopped, turned around and looked at Eldo, and said sincerely:
"I see. Of course there's no problem on my side. We are friends."
"No!"
Eldo's expression was equally sincere: "I am very happy to have a friend like you, and I am grateful that you are willing to help me, but since we are friends, I cannot just ask for things unilaterally.
And as I said, we are joining, not borrowing or relying on each other, this is a cooperation.
I know that your plot has the support of Rhodes Island and has no shortage of medical capabilities."
"Defense capabilities are not lacking either." Qi Yan reminded with a smile.
Eldo nodded and said solemnly:
"The Integration Movement can provide you with these two things in addition to yours, and you won't be able to refuse!"
Qi Yan became interested: "What is it?"
“Customer source!”
Just two words made Qi Yan unable to help but throw the Originium in his hand into his mouth, and his eyes flashed with golden light at the physical level.
………………
It's funny, I woke up because I was hungry around 1 a.m. last night.
After struggling in bed for a long time, I suddenly realized that I hurried home after watching the game yesterday, and then started typing, and then went to wash up and go to bed.
At first glance, does it seem like there is nothing wrong?
But my stomach told me that I forgot to feed it!!!
It was late at night and there was no food at home. I squatted in front of the cat food bowl and stared at my cat for a long time. Finally, I put on my clothes, ran a long way to find a 24-hour store, and bought bread and milk.
I really cried because of my own stupidity.
Without further ado, today is the same as usual. I will eat first, then play with the cat, and then write.
