"Let's talk on the way." Brother Bourne led Xueming and Afeng downstairs, seeming to be very resistant to the [Afterlife] sect.
He looked at the worker behind Xueming from time to time, and when he was picking up the car, he asked the unknown boss -
"——This boy"
Jiang Xueming replied without thinking: "Ordinary people."
Bourne blinked and raised his voice: "Then let's talk about this topic later?"
Ah Feng, the boy, immediately said loudly: "Oh! I can't listen, right?"
All of a sudden, this guy's voice could be heard from the parking lot to the director's counter, and even from the rain shelter even further away. It's not that A Feng did this on purpose, he just had a loud voice.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, but it couldn't continue to be so awkward.
So Jiang Xueming broke the embarrassment: "Why don't you also talk about it that ordinary people can listen to and promote anti-fraud knowledge?"
Bourne poked at the materials on the large truck and said, "Talking while working?"
Ten minutes later, three men were placing wires and tamping piles in the open space next to the security complex building, and the fragrant dream loomed.
The leveling work of blasting sand and gravel to trim the mud floor blocked part of the conversation. The building materials Jiang Xueming brought were all semi-finished products, which were mortise and tenon structural floors that could be quickly deployed. This type of quick-build houses is very popular in the underground world. Many scientific research The expedition team will not stay in one place for too long and needs a house that can be taken around. It is much more reliable than a tent and can withstand strong typhoons of level 16, floods and high temperatures.
"The thing is like this." Bourne told Xueming while working to build a dream home for himself and his gun wives: "Before Canaan became the reborn mother goddess, many passengers came into contact with her - in In the past ten years, researchers at the scientific research station have exchanged a lot of information with her."
"About her race, about the specific location of her home planet in the universe. And the most important thing."
"People who had close contact with her did not experience any abnormality in the early stages. It was not as magical as [reborn and reborn] as described in the rumors."
"As you know, Bu Liuxing also had close contact with the Canaanite Mother Goddess. Apart from some messy and difficult-to-organize sound and pictures, it is difficult for us to fully express these strange and special impressions in human language. "
"But later on, it was."
Speaking of this, Berne lowered his voice specially——
"——Gunsmith, after the battle at the frontline base of Red Star Mountain in Niflheim, the Canaan collected from the Great Fireman of Surte and the Canaan recovered from the deflected shells were eliminated. After it was spun and returned to its original owner, some subtle changes occurred.”
Ah Feng was carrying prefabricated panels. As he said, the most important thing in his body was strength. Assembling floor panels was easy, and he didn't pay special attention to Mr. Bourne's whispers.
Jiang Xueming asked casually as he pulled bags of cement and strong fluorescent lamp sets from the truck to fill the foundation with concrete mud.
"You mean, after these aliens saw Earth's prehistoric super civilization, they started doing some weird things to humans?"
Bourne nodded, helping to process the reinforced concrete, arranging groups of fluorescent lamps around the future little love nest, and connecting them to the power supply of the security complex.
This reliable security officer knows a lot of first-hand information about the scientific research station. As the guardian of the scientific research station, he must know the spiritual disaster attributes of Canaan, but this information cannot be passed on to outsiders, just like [Death Rune], always There will be curious passengers trying to cross the restricted area.
"Since then, in half a year, a total of seventeen passengers have had close contact with the Canaanite Mother Goddess. Before they went to the mansion, they still had the same strange dreams as you did before. This phenomenon It continues to this day.”
"But when they cross the settlement and come back from the foreign-style mansion, there will be some changes in their personality and posture."
Bourne emphasized solemnly——
"——This change was not obvious at first. It was difficult for me to detect any difference between these people before and after."
"Until there was a very, very strange guy, who is now the Pope [in the next life]. His name is Pix Adriano. Let's call him Mr. Pi for the time being. Just follow your Chinese grammar."
"This Mr. Pi seemed very excited. When he returned to the security complex, he kept harming himself."
Byrne described it with a smile, imitating the expression of the Pixar Pope.
"Just like that, I took the knife and cut my arm repeatedly, watching the purple-gray blood ooze out, and then I saw the wound healing rapidly."
"He kept talking, kept talking."
"I'm done, I'm done, I'm done!"
"I've been transformed."
"Oh! Oh oh oh! Oh! Wow!" Jiang Xueming finished the foundation work and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity when he heard these delirious murmurs.
Many believers of the Crazy Butterfly Sect also have crazy postures of being overjoyed after being given blood.
This is very similar to Mr. Pickles' symptoms. The purple-gray blood is more like the result of Canaan's blood donation.
When they first came to Fangfeng Settlement, the "dementia children" wandering around the periphery had blue blood rich in copper ions, and they had extremely strong self-healing abilities. Perhaps the Canaanite Virgin gave this ability to her visitors.
Byrne continued: "I immediately informed the scientific research station and the Transportation Department of this situation, and these seventeen passengers, without exception, all became believers of Our Lady,"
"Are you saying that she is actively spreading this belief?" Jiang Xueming asked.
Bourne shook his head: "Not necessarily. You can talk to the person in charge of the scientific research station then - if she wants to recruit troops, the number one pope should be me."
Jiang Xueming: "Is that Mr. Pi's spontaneous star-chasing behavior and has nothing to do with Ms. Canaan?"
Bourne: "It's possible. After all, the only people who have received this kind of gift of blood are these seventeen humans."
"Besides the ability to heal, what other abilities do they have?" Jiang Xueming asked.
Bourne then replied: "Spirit, will to survive and inspiration have all been significantly improved, but it is very easy to fall into a state of panic, which may be related to excessive inspiration - there are also some strange physiological phenomena that are difficult to describe in a word, You have to go to the scientific research station to investigate in detail."
Jiang Xueming: "I understand."
After cleaning up the house, under the baking of strong fluorescent lamps, the temperature of the concrete foundation quickly reached about 45 degrees Celsius, but it only took a day to completely solidify. When we come back tomorrow, we can install sound insulation materials on the floor slabs and cap the roof.
"A Feng!" Xueming shouted: "Unload the things on the truck, you can go back."
"The boss has nothing to do with me anymore?" Afeng was a little surprised. His hesitant look seemed to be full of curiosity about the Canaanite Mother Goddess.
Xueming took the box from Afeng's arms and gave the young man a meaningful look.
"Yes, you can discuss the fee with Sister Hong. You can go back now."
Afeng thought for a while and finally asked in a low voice: "Can I go to the beach with you?"
Bourne: "Why?"
Xueming also asked at the same time: "Why?"
Afeng answered truthfully: "I don't know, I just have a strange feeling, I just can't describe it, it seems like"
The young man scratched his head, feeling at a loss and feeling intensely uneasy.
"I want to go, I just want to go. If I don't go to that place, I always feel like something is missing. I don't have auditory hallucinations, and there are no voices pulling me. I don't have dreams. I am very awake."
"I'm sorry. Sorry boss."
He started talking nonsense.
"I don't know, this hanging day is too dull and boring, you know."
He made strange gestures, shrugging his shoulders and spreading his hands.
"There used to be various cults. I would wonder if I could go into battle and kill the enemy when I grow up."
"Who would have thought that when I become an adult, I will have to work odd jobs with my boss to make ends meet."
"Sometimes I wonder if there is a possibility that if I had been born earlier, my life would have been different."
"Hehe. Hahahahaha, I'm just kidding, I'm kidding."
He was very reserved when he smiled, as if a big invisible hand had strangled his neck, full of anxiety.
"I don't know how long this kind of life will last. When I was studying to be a chef, I thought I could cook for the rest of my life. But then I had no choice but to deliver food. I hope one day I can pick up food. gun."
"Feng!" Jiang Xueming, with quick eyes and quick hands, slapped A Feng on the head, his eyes became very scary.
Until the young man's head tilted, his body collapsed, and he fell into Mr. Bourne's arms. He finally stopped feeling mentally exhausted and fell asleep peacefully.
Mr. Byrne looked strange and explained: "Others don't have this symptom. This is the first time."
"It has nothing to do with the Canaan Mother Goddess." Jiang Xueming patted A Feng on the shoulder, and then said: "He is exhausted. The BOSS's essence has overwhelmed him. He started to get sick when he arrived in this damn place. Let him have a good rest. , Mr. Bourne, please take good care of him - when this kid wakes up, you can send him back."
Bourne raised his eyebrows and asked, "You don't need me to follow? Are you going to the beach alone?"
"Do you have customs clearance documents? Just give me the materials." Jiang Xueming climbed onto the truck with two boxes of diseased bones in his arms. "Don't worry, it's the same this time - if this woman really wants to do anything to me, I will I came here with a Noble Phantasm, so the Iaijutsu should work."
David Byrne sent the gun to the co-pilot and separated the bullets. It was still the combination from ten years ago, Smith & Wesson and AR-15.
"You hand the nameplate of the firearm to the person in charge of the scientific research station and show it to him. I won't go to the printer and make a pile of waste paper. When they see my gun, they will know that you are a genuine gunsmith."
Jiang Xueming: "Thank you very much."
Byrne: "I wish you success."
Jiang Xueming stretched out his hand——
——Bourn held hands with it, and then fell to the ground in an instant, sleeping very soundly.
Xueming slapped his forehead, being too polite and forgetting that he was not wearing gloves.
"Hold!"
After carrying Bourne and Afeng back to the office, Xueming drove to the temporary base alone.
This road has become unfamiliar. Originally, the fossil forest land on both sides of the road was very dense. Now, after manual felling and repair, and the road was widened, there are many tire marks of engineering equipment in the wild fields on both sides.
Along with the firearms, there were two brochures delivered to the car, which were a brief description of the future new station. It was a large platform with eight lanes and sixteen tracks. The woodland next to the beach had natural sunlight and was very suitable for human habitation. The only What needs to be taboo is the Canaanite life.
This place can become a land of plenty, close to the sea, and only two stops away from the ocean trade route of Eureka Volcano City. It seems that Canaanite life also knew these conditions. At a very ambiguous time point, she completed a blood-giving ceremony with humans and began to expand outwards.
In the information age, these alien creatures possess nano-machinery-level process standards, and their methods of transforming and processing electronic and electrical semiconductor materials and various metals are miraculous. Our Lady of Canaan may have thought that in ten or twenty years it would be her time.
Jiang Xueming thought, looking at the dim road ahead, thinking about a question.
"So is she hostile to Homo sapiens?"
"For her, are people a tool for promotion? Are they materials that can be used?"
"Just a springboard? Or a long-term partner?"
"She seems to be like BOSS in imitating people and jumping on the express train of human civilization. This ecological niche has been occupied by Ao Mingde."
"Can she take away BOSS's ecological niche?"
These questions cannot be answered for the time being, but at this moment, Jiang Xueming looked at the two suitcases containing the BOSS essence, and things seemed to be getting complicated.
Good Cat did not tell Xueming in advance about Our Lady of Canaan and the Church of the Afterlife, but asked him to bring the disease bones directly to the beach to seek opportunities for cooperation——
——In the eyes of Canaan Life, it’s like the neighbor next door suddenly inviting the fierce security guard to the house with two guns.
This seemed to be an act of intimidation, an act of marking territory, but the boss didn't say it clearly. The little cat had many evil intentions, so he wanted Xueming to play the black face. After all, the King of War knew the [cult] best.
During this drive, the snow was clear for a long time, until the volcanic crater at the bottom of the sea in the distance began to show orange light sources, and they melted together with the dense fog.
Four sets of experimental buildings were built around Mr. Bourne's frontline stronghold, covering an area of 20 hectares. Looking further into the distance, 1,800 meters away is the ground level project of the new station, surrounded by a blue separation wall.
The golden egg-shaped mud house in the settlement still stands, but it is not the rainy season, and the sons of Canaan are not as lively as before, and they do not come out to wander.
In front of the road checkpoint, gunmen at the security post stopped Xueming's car.
Xueming immediately got out of the car holding the gun and raising his hands——
"——Mr. Bourne asked me to come, this is his gun!"
A tall captain with a heroic face emerged from among the soldiers. When he saw Bourne's firearm nameplate and the gunsmith's face, he became extremely surprised.
"anonymous!"
Xueming nodded.
The captain immediately saluted and reported the unit number, battle group, and asked the soldiers on both sides who saw firearms to lift their alerts and not point their guns at the most trustworthy and reliable hero.
The sentry captain opened his arms and guided Xueming to the internal road of the research station.
"Follow me, the director has been waiting for you for a long time! Get on my motorcycle."
While putting Xueming on the motorcycle's rack, he talked to the combatants in the group.
"Call the guy from class two, that guy with white hair, the one with albinism, and call him to pick up the car."
Jiang Xueming followed the rules of the local defense soldiers. When he got on the carriage, he casually asked -
"——What do you call me? You just came here? Are you unfamiliar with this place? You don't even recognize the soldiers in your own group?"
"Hi!" The team leader turned the accelerator, and the motorcycle swayed forward. He explained patiently: "I am a member of the Guangling Zhixi regiment. The security post is a mixed team of the warning department and the militia. It needs to be changed frequently. Changing of guard, every two months, soldiers have to be transferred to other places."
"Oh" Xue Ming asked more: "Because of the Canaanite Mother Goddess?"
"Yes, it's because of the Canaanite Mother Goddess." The team leader nodded: "I've stayed here for too long, and I'm dreaming every night. My mind starts to waver, and I start to think wildly, thinking about things promoted by the [Afterlife] Church - Could it be true."
The team leader took Xueming to the largest experimental building. The long journey was finally coming to an end.
The director had been waiting at the gate for a long time. He was not wearing formal clothes. He was wearing a cloak to protect him from rain and cold. He looked like a real person.
He was an Asian man about fifty years old. Xueming wanted to call him uncle when he saw him. He had a trimmed beard, obvious forehead wrinkles, and a smile on his face. He made people feel very friendly, and he also had obvious inspiration and pressure. He was a spiritual man. Those who are capable.
The employee ID card of the institute was hidden in the uncle's sleeve. When Jiang Xueming approached the door, he immediately introduced himself with it in his sleeve.
"Hello, I am from Tianshu. This time I was appointed to Fangfeng Village. Anonymous——"
"——You can call me Zhang Hanzhi. I am a psychic researcher at your sister unit."
