"Ah!" Edgar felt like he was struck by lightning. He knew that there would always be such a day, but he always felt that it would come very quickly. These days were the smoothest and safest period he had ever lived, although he didn't know that Chu Yunsheng would be there every day. He was busy going in and out, but he could still clearly understand Chu Yunsheng's increasingly urgent rhythm.
"Mr. Lunnon, can I come with you?" Edgar asked nervously, fearing that Chu Yunsheng would spit out a NO. Seeing that Chu Yunsheng ignored him for a while, he hurriedly added : "I won't hold you back, I'll just follow you."
"You and I will definitely die." Chu Yunsheng said calmly. He was not threatening Edgar. Even he himself could not guarantee that he could safely break through the slime area, let alone an ordinary person with nothing. He said: "Stay here, I will give you some insect meat, and you may survive for a while."
Chu Yunsheng looked up at the dark window and said that it would take a while, maybe a week, maybe only two or three days. Once this place turns into a land of slime, the bugs will quickly discover him and eliminate him.
"Mr. Lennon, please, please allow me to go with you. I know I will be eaten by insects sooner or later if I stay here..." Edgar begged.
"Do you really want to go with me? You should know that entering the mucus area is extremely dangerous. I will not protect you or take care of you. Even if you follow me, you will die." Chu Yunsheng shook his head and said , In fact, he didn’t need to talk so much to this black man. Tomorrow, when the sky gave out a faint light, he could go on the road alone. Whether Edgar followed or not was Edgar’s own business. He would not fight for a black man he didn’t know. Divide your energy.
"Yes, Mr. Lennon, I have decided to give it a try no matter what! Please allow me to follow you, I can barbecue for you. Stand guard for you, do whatever I want, and you don't need to share your energy to take care of me. , I will shoot with a rifle to protect myself. Even if I still die in the end, I have no regrets." Edgar said with an expectant look on his face.
"Do you know how to shoot?" Chu Yunsheng said with slight surprise. Edgar was a black man and was a researcher at the General Research Department. Chu Yunsheng was surprised. In his impression, black people and scientists seemed to be very different. It is somewhat reliable to know how to use a gun. In the American blockbusters of the Sunshine Era, there are many scenes of black people robbing with guns.
"Dear Mr. Lennon, in the United States, I am a law-abiding and legal citizen. As a gun enthusiast, I have a legal gun license and own my favorite firearm. I can also shoot this rifle skillfully. Please You don't have to worry." Edgar raised the automatic rifle in his hand. He answered meticulously.
Chu Yunsheng had forgotten that the country on the other side of the Pacific had different national conditions from his own. Ordinary people might also have access to guns. If Edgar could shoot proficiently, he could be put to good use.
There is also a Dark Energy Type 1 rifle in the Wu Na Talisman. Chu Yunsheng has not used it since he obtained the Dark Energy Type 2 rifle. The General Research Department of special bullets also replenished him with some, and now there are 82 rounds left. He I have always used pure fire energy bombs, and I have basically never used them.
On the gun. They were all sealed by Chu Yunsheng's Fire Soldier Talisman, which was far more powerful than the original ordinary dark energy gun.
If Edgar were to be armed and shoot from the gaps in the carapace of the golden beetle, a sealed dark energy gun would be equal to the power of a dozen red beetles. Although it is not much, it is still usable, and for Chu Yunsheng, it is a good thing to have a little more power on that dark energy gun.
"OK. Edgar, everyone's existence must have its own value. Before 7 o'clock tomorrow, I hope you will become familiar with this new gun as soon as possible. And you only have 82 bullets, so you can't waste any of them!" Chu Yun Sheng "took out" the Dark Energy Type 1 rifle from his loose cloak, handed it to Edgar, and said seriously.
"Is it the Dark Energy Type 1 rifle!?" Edgar whispered in surprise. As a general research researcher, although he has no right to know about the latest Dark Energy Type 2 rifle, he still has the Type 1 rifle that has been built for a while. know.
The dark energy gun is of great significance to ordinary humans who cannot awaken. As a member of the dark warrior, Chu Yunsheng may not feel this, but Edgar is an ordinary person through and through. Weapons that allow ordinary people to fight like the Dark Warrior are what all ordinary humans long for.
"Mr. Lennon, you are so amazing. Please rest assured that I will get familiar with it as soon as possible!" Edgar said with admiration, stroking the body of the gun. As a foreigner, he was not qualified to join the most powerful team in Aurous City at that time. Research work on cutting-edge new weapons without even being qualified to use it.
"But I still want to tell you that once you enter the land of slime, life and death will depend on your destiny. If you can't use the dark energy gun, even if you are in danger, I may not have the energy to take care of you. Do you understand?" Chu Yun? Sheng said calmly.
"I understand, Mr. Lennon, I know my position." Edgar nodded solemnly. This was his only chance, the only chance to follow Chu Yunsheng and escape from here. He would never give up on this slim chance of survival. waste.
"It's good to understand it. After getting familiar with it, go to bed early. We will set off on time at 7 o'clock tomorrow!" Chu Yunsheng wrapped his cloak, glanced at Edgar, and closed his eyes. He has been seriously lacking in almost everything since he attacked Jinling City. Sleep, especially in the past two months, in order to gain maximum vitality, the rest time is less than 4 hours a day.
Tomorrow, not counting Edgar, he would be the one to fight against the entire insect swarm in the slime area. The battle situation would be dangerous, and he could know it without even thinking about it.
He needs enough sleep to regain his energy and be in the best condition to escape.
…
In the middle of the night, Chu Yunsheng woke up alertly. Under the firelight, he found that Edgar had not yet fallen asleep. He stared blankly at a photo in his hand, occasionally showing an imperceptible smile, and murmuring softly to Chu Yunsheng. He didn't understand the birdsong, but in the end Edgar kissed the photo like a dragonfly touching water.
Chu Yunsheng twisted his body, added a piece of wood to the fire, and suddenly asked: "Edgar, are you an American?"
"Sorry, Mr. Lennon, I woke you up," Edgar apologized quickly.
"Your family?" Chu Yunsheng pointed to the photo and continued. Edgar reminded him of his longing for his parents and aunt's family, and he suddenly fell asleep.
"Yes, Mr. Lennon. I have a beautiful wife and two angelic children. They are both in the United States now." Edgar talked about his wife and children, and his face seemed to reflect the light and noise. and pride.
"In the days when the sun first started to disappear, I still talked to them on the phone, but then I lost contact. However, I promised them that I would go back alive..." Edgar said dejectedly.
"So you didn't choose to commit suicide with the others?" Chu Yunsheng asked casually. After he entered the fifteenth floor, almost all the people in the room committed suicide. He had also experienced that kind of deep despair, but the difference was that he was stronger now.
"Those who commit suicide cannot enter heaven, Mr. Lennon. If I can't go back, at least I can meet them in heaven. But if I choose to commit suicide, even this last glimmer of hope will be gone." Edgar caressed Looking at the photo, he said confidently.
"They may not die. Your country has the most powerful and advanced military and weapons on the planet. It also has the most developed scientific and technological capabilities on the planet and countless scientific elites. Maybe the situation will be better than ours."
What Chu Yunsheng said was not groundless. The country on the other side of the Pacific Ocean did have amazing technological and military strength. In the last few days of the Sunshine Era, he also heard the news that this country was developing anti-matter weapons.
"It's useless. Mr. Lennon, please forgive me. I don't mean to refute your ideas. As a member of the Jinling City Research Department, we have observed that all scientific rule systems in this world have changed. Every-thing... ..." Edgar shook his head and whispered:
"My wife's grandmother was from a rare ethnic group in Mexico who insisted they had Mayan ancestry. She was a poor old woman, kind and loving, in her youth. Because she was often beaten severely by my wife's alcoholic grandfather... she He often warned my wife and I that when the sun sets in the last few days before the end, it will never rise again. I hope I can stay in the United States to take care of my wife and children."
"Mayan, you mean she is talking about the Mayan prophecy of the Americans?" Before the sun disappeared, why did Chu Yunsheng check the accuracy of the ancient books and also studied the Mayan doomsday legends.
However, the date when the darkness finally fell was wrong, and the phenomenon of the sun gradually disappearing was also different from their predictions. In comparison, the description in the ancient book by the seniors was extremely accurate, not only accurate to the time, but also to the celestial orbit passage. They are all exactly the same!
The two were at odds with each other, so Chu Yunsheng gradually lost interest in the vague descriptions of the Mayans. In his mind, the seniors in the ancient books were the real "experts".
"Yes, I thought it was very ridiculous at the time and thought it was the old man's excuse for wanting me to stay in the United States to accompany my wife. I understood her mood. Although I am a black man, I also received an orthodox university education and did not believe it, so I Came here..." Edgar said, his eyes suddenly lit up, he covered his mouth, his eyes widened and said:
"Oh, My God! I'm really stupid. I almost forgot that when we were visiting her, she once mentioned that when disaster strikes, only by escaping to the sacrificial centers in the ruins can we obtain God's salvation. , God! She has already said that darkness is coming, so the thing about the sacrificial center should also be true! She will definitely take Tina and the children there, she will! Mr. Lennon, are you right? ?”
"Yes!" Chu Yunsheng replied briefly and forcefully.
Looking at the slightly excited and hopeful Edgar, a strange question flashed through Chu Yunsheng's head for no reason. Whether it was ancient books, the Mayans, and the actual darkness that finally happened, why did the sun disappear? ?
Why? Is it set? Who set it up? …
