If you are forced to go to the top, the format review will be started. If you are not compliant, your record points will be deducted.
But not long after, this new rule was quietly canceled because it "caused An Yu to feel too much mental pressure".
Chapter 16 Lost Area 53·16
At night, the whole city fell into darkness again.
A few hundred meters away from the northern container was the dirty city canal. In the bridge tunnel, An Yu sat on the ground and wolfed down the bread.
This was already the sixth item he had eaten. The continuous fighting had left him empty. He had never been so hungry.
The terminal shows that the survival value is 90%.
The vines were retracted from An Yu's body, and Zhu Tao let out a long breath, "I tried my best. The rest of the physical losses came from fatigue. I can only pray that the mission will end soon and go back to sleep for at least 12 hours."
"Thank you." An Yu chewed while observing the nearly healed wounds on his body, thinking about sleeping for a month after going back.
Billy sent a city-wide broadcast and said with emotion: "I didn't expect it would be so difficult before I came out."
"We were asked to abandon the city when we went up to the peak." Zhu Tao fiddled with a grape leaf torn from his body. "Fortunately, Lu refused, otherwise I don't know how I would recall this mission in the future."
Hearing this, An Yu looked inside.
Qin Zhilu was sitting deep in the tunnel, flexing and stretching his long legs, and his black clothes were hidden in the darkness.
After entering the bridge cave, he went inside alone.
The commander seemed a little depressed, An Yu thought, although it was impossible for him to correctly perceive other people's emotions, but——
He poked open the image captured by the recorder.
Something is indeed very wrong, sir.
Not long ago, a bloody stand-up shooting took place outside the container.
Because the abnormal tide was too huge, they should have escaped quickly and waited for reinforcements to arrive and act together. But in the picture, Qin Zhilu stood high on a broken stone wall, his pistol replaced with thermal energy bullets designed to kill freaks, and shot one after another, killing the surging freaks in rows.
For those missed, leave it to An Yu to rush into the abnormal tide to make up for it.
An Yu was afraid of shooting, so he used a heavy sniper to smash the heads of those dirty things as a last resort. It was purely physical work.
Zhu Tao shouted several times to withdraw, but Qin Zhilu turned a deaf ear. Those black eyes were so dark that An Yu was already exhausted, but he looked back several times but didn't dare to speak.
He held on until Qin Zhilu's ammunition supply was finally exhausted.
After returning, he went deep into the tunnel alone.
An Yu grabbed Zhu Tao, who was leaning over to get the bread, and asked softly, "Is it because of the order to abandon the city?"
Zhu Tao glanced inside and smiled, "Probably not."
He didn't know what to do with the thick bread that was as long as an arm, so he simply broke half of it and gave it to An Yu, "Back in District 95, 2.8 million people were killed with one request. Lu has a big heart."
An Yu hugged his knees and thought for a while, "Sir, he is a kind man."
"Huh?" Zhu Tao blinked, "Others were scared to death when they heard about it for the first time. He is the devil who pressed that button."
"Ling Qiu said that judging a person's kindness depends on how much he is willing to bear for other people." An Yu said softly: "With two million and eight million people, that button is very heavy."
Zhu Tao's eyes suddenly changed when she looked at him.
An Yu asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
"No." Zhu Tao shook his head. He remembered that his brain commented that An Yu was indifferent and like a small beast. But the little beast is so simple and can see people clearly at a glance.
"Law has always been responsible, for everyone." He said: "Order is his bottom line, far above emotion."
The coarse wheat kernels took a long time to chew in the mouth, and Zhu Tao's cheeks were sore from chewing them. It was really hard to understand An Yu's obsession with this thing.
He held the bread in his mouth and whispered, "Lü is just showing weakness."
An Yu was confused, "Sir, do you have a weakness?"
"Lü's powers are indeed unreasonably powerful, but they are also very limited. He is a person who believes in order to death. Ingesting abnormal genes too frequently will make him fall into bloodlust and negative emotions. His brain evaluates him as a certain It's a kind of self-loathing." Zhu Tao muttered: "But he can take care of himself, after all, everyone relies on him, just let him be quiet for a while."
"Oh..." An Yu nodded.
Zhu Tao lowered his voice, "But if he has a serious attack and locks himself up completely, don't get involved."
An Yu was startled, "What will happen if we get closer?"
Zhu Tao looked unusually solemn, "No one who is still alive knows what will happen."
The bridge was quiet for a moment. An Yu nodded and took a bite of bread.
Zhu Tao suddenly laughed, "So what is your superpower? Is it very close to Rabbit An?"
"..."
An Yu's face suddenly turned ugly.
Zhu Tao continued to tease him, "Have you watched the episode Heita sent you? Is it good?"
An Yu became even more depressed, "It's okay."
Not long after entering the bridge cave, he received a clip from the "Super Abnormal Kindergarten" drama series from the Black Tower. The protagonist is, Rabbit Ann.
It was a cartoon character with a rabbit head and jumping around in human clothes. His biological age was only six years old. He had two long ears and a small white round tail trembling behind his butt when he walked. .
Because it looked innocent and docile, humans adopted it into a hyper-abnormal kindergarten. Little did they know that it would sneak into residential areas at night to eat people. When being chased by the police, it ran so fast with its eyes as red as blood that it couldn't even be chased by a car. ——But, it is definitely not a "teleport".
And the way it launches its ultimate move "detonation" is to throw bombs.
The cute round tail is a bomb, pick it off and throw it out, bang! Another one will appear on the back of the butt, and it is inexhaustible. It is simply unbelievable.
The postscript of the Black Tower contains only three concise words - very humorous.
An Yu felt depressed for half an hour after reading it. He couldn't even taste the bread.
Zhu Tao covered his stomach again, "You are so cute. Oh my god, in such a difficult situation, I actually held our heads with Billy and laughed for ten minutes."
"Stop laughing...please." An Yu said helplessly.
He has never watched anime, let alone browsed social media—low-income households do not even own a mobile phone, and this terminal was the first electronic device he owned.
Billy winked at him, "It is said that in the latest episode, humans have captured Rabbit Ann. Are you scared?"
An Yu didn't want to talk to him.
Ling Qiu once said that people's joys and sorrows are not the same, and this sentence was fully confirmed at this time. Billy and Zhu Tao laughed so much that they burst into tears, but he was so tormented that he could not sit still.
Rabbit Ann is fictional, so what exactly is he?
So far, his gene entropy is still zero, and he has only a partial understanding of his own abilities - he looked worriedly towards the depths of the tunnel - will Qin Zhilu still believe that he is "controllable"?
"An Yu." Qin Zhilu, who was in the depths, suddenly said, "Come here."
An Yu's back tensed, he stood up and walked slowly deeper.
The laughter between Billy and Zhu Tao gradually faded away behind them, until the only sound left was the sound of dripping water. He stood in front of Qin Zhilu and said uneasily: "Sir."
"Um."
He was waiting for Qin Zhilu to interrogate him, but Qin Zhilu just stared at him quietly, his gaze as elusive as ever.
However, it seems to be less oppressive than before.
An Yu thought that he must have sensed correctly. The commander was indeed depressed.
This might be a good opportunity to please him.
He subconsciously took out the remaining half of the bread and just handed it over, his hand paused in the air again.
In fact, Qin Zhilu probably didn't like to eat thick bread, and would give him his share every time. The woman on the shuttle bus also said that the food in the main city was very good and she looked down upon these poor people's food.
Just as An Yu was about to retract his hand, Qin Zhilu took the bread, took a bite, and chewed it for a long time before swallowing it.
"It tastes better than expected." He said calmly, "Don't run around, stay here for a while."
"Oh." An Yu wondered when he ran away.
But he still carefully sat down next to Qin Zhilu and watched Qin Zhilu eat silently.
The familiar smell of leather suddenly reminded him of the jellyfish in the garage, the windbreaker that wrapped him around him when he was blind on a rainy night, and not long ago, those tentacles rubbed around his waist, and one even squeezed into his arms.
After entering Area 53, he was always surrounded by such an aura, so that he gradually no longer associated the threat of the snowfield, but felt safe.
The chief seemed...to like hugging him.
An Yu thought for a while and felt that this was indeed the case, so he opened his arms and gently hugged Qin Zhilu from his side.
The cold and determined body suddenly froze.
"You have become a human again." An Yu tried hard to organize his words and tried to "comfort" this extremely difficult social behavior. "You can be a human being as long as you want. Don't hate yourself."
Qin Zhilu was stunned for a long time. In the darkness, his eyes seemed to fluctuate, although it was only for a moment.
It was very difficult for An Yu to hold it together. He had no tentacles, so he could only rub Qin Zhilu's windbreaker with his thin palms.
He hesitated for a moment, then repeated his old trick: "Sir, my whole body hurts."
He actually had a slight fever.
In a human body, even if Zhu Tao healed those wounds, the accumulated inflammation still made him continue to have fever.
Even through his clothes, Qin Zhilu could gradually feel the temperature rising. He screamed in pain, and the hot breath sprayed on Qin Zhilu's neck.
The cold eyes slowly gained a hint of warmth. If Zhu Tao were here, he would be surprised that Qin Zhilu came out of his depression so quickly this time.
"Don't act coquettishly all the time." Qin Zhilu said helplessly, "I wish Tao could stop your bleeding."
An Yu became even more anxious when talking about this, "But he can only help me recover to 90%."
"Otherwise, do you think that the healing ability is as simple as filling the car with gas?" Qin Zhilu glanced at him, "If you are not cautious when seeking death, 90% of the time you will have to worry about everything."
An Yu realized that he had been scolded, but he did not intend to retaliate. Ling Qiu had warned him to "stand at attention when being beaten", and he felt that the superior's lecture was... less scary than when he was silent.
He pulled up his prison uniform, pointed at the scars left by the induction test, and continued talking to himself, "I was beaten outside for too long just now, and the old wounds were always hit, and it still hurts after applying Billy's medicine before."
"If you know it hurts, don't always take risks." Qin Zhilu stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the knife back."
An Yu covered his waist cautiously, "Why?"
