【Chapter 402】Shocking tragedy
But when Xiaorou saw the elite soldiers around Du Jin who were obviously unwilling to protect him from ordinary soldiers, and the attitude of the troops responsible for rescuing them towards Du Jin, she understood that Du Jin was not an ordinary officer as she imagined, but They are high-ranking or high-status officers in the army, which means that it will be even more difficult for them to go further. Maybe this separation will be a farewell in a sense, although Xiaorou does not have extravagant hopes. Du Jin can like herself, but she at least hopes to express her inner feelings and prevent herself from having any regrets.
But when the words of his original passionate confession came out of his mouth, they became much more euphemistic and obscure:
"Sir Du, I...will we meet again in the future? I want to...want to study with you...um... ..Is it okay to learn how to save more people?”
Du Jin is a straight man in some aspects, but in terms of emotional intelligence, he is definitely not the so-called "wooden", otherwise his relationship with Si Qing would not have progressed so fast. If Du Jin and Si Qing had waited If he relies on the other person to express his feelings, I am afraid that the final outcome will be helpless. Although "she likes me" is one of the three major illusions in life, Du Jin is keenly aware that the girl in front of him has feelings for him. This put Du Jin in a bit of a dilemma. Rejection is a big skill. After all, being direct may cause the other party to suffer an excessive blow, or it may lead to other bad outcomes due to love and hatred. If he is too gentle and pushy, That will cause the other party to have unrealistic fantasies, and this is completely a non-subjective scumbag.
So Du Jin adopted a common method used by girls who rejected school to express their love for him, which is to set a very high standard. If the other party gives up despite the difficulties, Du Jin is also happy to see this situation. If the other party really After meeting the requirements she mentioned, her horizons and vision will be loftier, and the people she will come into contact with will be much better than herself. In this case, she will no longer have any thoughts or hostility towards herself:
"Well, Xiaorou, of course you can, but now there are many people in other places who are suffering like everyone else and have not been rescued. Do you think about how helpless and desperate they must be? Do you think I should help? them?"
"I think we should, but...Does it really have to be you, Chief Du?"
Du Jin smiled and reached out to pat her shoulder and responded:
"Although I am not arrogant, there are actually some things that only I can do. Now that you have some abilities, you should give full play to its value, either use it to do evil and harm society, or use it to save more people. , Xiaorou, what kind of person do you think I am?"
"Mr. Du, you must be the second type. You must be the one who helps everyone. I understand. Xiaorou, I will try my best to make myself as good as possible. Then I can catch up with you, Mr. Du, and go with you. Let’s help other people who are being persecuted. When the time comes, remember to take me with you!”
"It's a deal! I guarantee it with my own name and belief, I promise you!"
"Uh-huh!"
Then Du Jin stood up and looked at the girl who was running back with excitement and a hint of determination. After she disappeared around the corner of the corridor, he turned around and said to the waiting Li Mengyan:
"Okay, the small problems that need to be solved are done, let's continue walking!"
Li Mengyan said to Du Jin with a hint of ridicule:
"It seems that our Dr. Du is not so charming? Why don't you accept this little girl's kindness? I think she is very serious, speaking from a woman's intuition."
Du Jin rolled his eyes when he heard Li Mengyan's words, and then came closer to her. Although he was separated by his head armor, seeing Du Jin's face getting closer and closer, Li Mengyan took a small step back nervously, and even let her The emotions that had been suppressed by the "spiritual political commissar" showed a slight fluctuation. At this time, Du Jincai said:
"What? Chief Li, what do you think of my taste and vision for you? If so, then I will be very frightened!"
Like Xiaorou, Du Jin has an inexplicable temperament. It's not the kind of stunning and endearing one at first glance. It's no longer a temperament, but a strange ability. As he comes into contact with Du Jin As the relationship deepens, he will develop a unique charm and attraction. Li Mengyan and Du Jin have not known each other for a long time, but at least they have a mutual understanding of each other. Under Du Jin's close teasing at this time, Li Mengyan's heart It was suddenly touched, but it was only touched. With Li Mengyan's knowledge and control ability, this inexplicable throbbing may be a huge thing for an ignorant girl, but for herself, it is just a very simple emotion. Just to control it, she quickly adjusted her emotions and responded in as calm a tone as possible:
"Then Dr. Du, you have to work hard. My standards are very high. Be careful not to fall behind among my suitors!"
Du Jin smiled incredulously and ended the topic. Although he was not embarrassed at all, these jokes were common among friends. Moderation can deepen friendship and ease the atmosphere. Du Jin naturally understood the intensity involved. Yes, and Li Mengyan's soldiers are still nearby. Although they are using the communication unit of the head armor, and those soldiers are very seriously vigilant about the soldiers of other troops coming and going around, they don't seem to pay attention to anyone here at all. However, too much contact may have a negative impact on Li Mengyan and be detrimental to her future management.
Of course, in fact, Du Jin's worries were unnecessary. The two people who were not part of Li Mengyan's former army were left on the top of the building for reconnaissance and backup support. That is to say, the only people around him at this time were those she could Trusted "private soldiers", even if Du Jin rushes to hug her, as long as Li Mengyan doesn't give an order to stop them, they will become like "space warriors" and hold themselves to blind standards for everything in front of them. They will not see what they shouldn't see at all. Go and see.
After leaving the underground facility and returning to the building, Du Jin took a deep breath and took a deep breath of fresh air. The obviously old and outdated air circulation system of the underground facility itself was in a semi-activated state, coupled with the impact of those flesh and blood tissues on the quality of the ambient air. To deal with pollution, Du Jin only relies on the filtration system of the armor itself, and his chest is still a little depressed. After all, the filtration system of the armor is not to make you more comfortable, but to prevent you from being blown away by harmful gases. The quality of the filtered air is obviously different from that of the ground. He was quite aware of the fresh air on his body, but Du Jin didn't force it. The suit of armor he wore at least had a temperature circulation system. To put it bluntly, it was an air conditioner, which already made him very satisfied.
The light stability armor on the Eden before was really uncomfortable and frustrating. It was just for fighting. Of course, mass-produced armor is definitely fundamentally different from customized or quantitative armor. This point There is no doubt that after all, large-scale manufacturing reduces the average cost, or unit cost. Economies of scale lead to lower average costs. Economies of scale are further divided into internal economies of scale and external economies of scale. Internal economies of scale are analyzed from the perspective of an individual firm, where the relationship between output and costs can be explained. For example, companies with large-scale production can obtain more favorable prices when negotiating with upstream companies, thus reducing costs.
Under this model, larger companies can also invest more funds in scientific and technological research, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing unit costs. From a financial point of view, large-scale companies can obtain funds at more favorable interest rates. Although it is a military industry, this rule must be followed to a certain extent, because although Ganymede does not lack energy, it lacks raw materials. Ah, the bulk of what humans used to mine in resource galaxies using star gates was not energy fuel. After all, it was just an accessory in a certain sense. There are many substitutes for energy. As long as the raw materials are sufficient, it is just a matter of efficiency. So from the resource galaxy The rapid exploitation of resources in the solar system is the main reason why humans in the Blood Seal World can develop rapidly and maintain the coexistence of multiple national systems.
Country M was the first to start the war because the Pan-Asian camp led by Xia Country was developing too fast. Relying on its strong industrial capabilities and advanced mining technology, it had left the arrogant Country M behind. Therefore, the initiator of countless wars became Unite all the countries that covet and fear the Xia Kingdom's Pan-Asian camp to fight against it, in order to compete for the right to suppress resources and technology. After all, as long as one party is defeated, then the other party's wealth and advantages will be theirs, right?
This sounds very similar to the wars that have happened in this world. I have to say that I don’t know if there is really some connection somewhere. The M countries in the two worlds are really "brothers" carved from the same mold. ", but unlike Country M, which still dominates the world, after Country M in the Blood Seal World took the initiative to start the war, the entire war situation was crushed by Xia Kingdom's powerful fleet and excellent strategy, but in the end this battle There are no winners or losers in the war. The AI omnic rebellion that followed can be said to have shattered the future of mankind in the blood-stamped world, and even half of its vitality has not been restored to this day... ..
Just when Li Mengyan was about to call the carrier to evacuate from the A13 residential area and take Du Jin to the fleet headquarters at the airport, Du Jin stopped her again and said to Li Mengyan:
"It's not the time to leave yet. I'm going to pick up someone to go home. This is a promise I made to him and to myself. If it hadn't been for him, I might not have been able to survive the previous attacks and pursuits of the Heyi Cult. Survive the killing, oh! Maybe I can also be confident and get rid of the possibility. In short, I have to take this guard of mine away. Chief Li, you can apply and then follow me. "
Having said that, Du Jin stretched out his hand to make a military carrying hovercraft stop in front of him. Of course, this seemingly cool action was mainly due to Xiao Ai's effort. How could the navigation AI of the hovercraft not recognize you, Du Jin? Who is it? This carrying hovercraft is part of an unmanned supply network that relies on basic AI for navigation. It is also convenient for Du Jin to quickly reach Liu Zaijie’s unit location from here. As for the secret passage of the Heyi Sect , and the mutated cultists that may still exist in the secret passage, he still doesn't want to encounter them again. In the previous battle with the blood seal, Du Jin's mental power has reached an extremely overdrawn state, although on the surface Du Jin seems to be in a state of overdraft. Yes, but it would be awkward and embarrassing to actually use its abilities.
Looking at Du Jin's actions, Li Mengyan sighed softly. Although she admired Du Jin's principle of attaching importance to love and justice, after all, the Fleet Command had never stopped urging her. After all, there was no one in the A13 residential area. The risk of infection is completely eliminated. Although some "necromorphs" with a high degree of transformation have stopped further evolution and mutation with the destruction of the blood seal, there are still some special individuals that still retain a certain degree of attack ability, not to mention the Unity Cult. The risk of suspicious persons and threatening persons has not been eliminated. If Du Jin stays here for one minute, there will be one minute of risk, which Ganymede is not willing to bear.
So she first sent half of the team to the designated landing area to build a safe zone. She took the two most outstanding and stable soldiers into "Du Jin's car" and watched the helpless Li Mengyan sit on the suspended In the boat, Du Jin raised a slight smile on his lips, and then sailed towards Liu Zaijie's station. The road was filled with the wreckage of the city, as well as the corpses of a large number of people and soldiers. Some of them died of cannibalism due to the influence of the blood mark. Some of them were affected by the war. Ganymede had sent troops to clean up these corpses, but Du Jin's eyes still felt uncomfortable watching the scenes.
Especially when I think of the countless blue light spots that appeared from the blood seal itself when the blood seal was destroyed by me, my mood becomes heavier...
