A lover's kiss should be the most beautiful thing in the world.
Smooth, soft and refreshing.
The angel's temperature traveled through Valentine's body, producing countless sugars that flowed into his blood, so sweet that it clogged him and made him tremble.
He fell to the ground, and all he could see was the golden light hugging him tightly. After a brief moment of surprise, Valentine's body softened, like cotton, tightly embracing the angel above.
But in the sweetness of expressing love, Valentine also tasted other flavors.
There seemed to be a ray of air entering his mouth, blending into every part of his body, seeping into the deepest spiritual space, shining like the sun in the darkness.
The flying dragon fell from the sky and looked at the light in front of him.
The light slowly dissipated, and the first thing that appeared were dozens of sharp blades glowing with blood. They formed a circle, suspended behind the man, slowly expanding and shrinking with his breathing, as if they were alive.
Followed by four pairs of wings, brilliant and brilliant. Looking upward, the halo above the man's head was wrapped with patterns, complex and gorgeous.
Finally, she stepped out of the light and slowly fell to the ground, like a feather.
"Hi."
The Blade Angel raised his head to meet Feilong's gaze and waved to him.
Raphael's soul returned to Valentine's body, not even one of those weapons was left behind.
…
"Um?"
In the distance, Jiao Zhengyu noticed the sudden light and looked up.
The little fox jumped on her head and howled twice in the direction of the flying dragon.
With just a brief glance, the girl knew the general situation. She pulled the fox off her head and held it in her arms.
"She's not new."
Jiao Zhengyu stared at the angel who appeared again and smiled.
"With you, there are four lives in this space."
"Ugh."
The girl's technique was very good, and the little fox lay in her arms, purring and swaying its tail.
If you don't look closely, it looks like a small husky.
"Four people..."
Jiao Zhengyu blinked, and a small light bulb appeared out of thin air above his head, still shining.
It's a pity that the light bulb didn't hit her head and got stuck in the big corner like a branch.
"I have a big idea for you."
She raised the little fox's chin and raised the corners of her mouth crazily.
--------Reality--------
"Aha……"
Facts have proved that the skills learned in fantasy can be brought back to reality, but the body that has been tempered belongs only to that world.
Back in reality, Valentine knew how to give both parties a deep kiss, but his body was extremely stiff—the hardware was still too poor.
The result of this situation was that the lack of oxygen made him blush, and he could only rely on rapid breathing to relieve the discomfort.
"are you OK?"
Raphael was stunned for a moment, then helped Valentine up and let him sit on the ground, with a little apology in his voice.
She stretched out her index finger to wipe away the sparkling water flowing from the corner of the boy's mouth, frowning slightly, and the love in her eyes could almost flow out.
Franka, who was watching from the side, smacked her lips and turned away, refusing to take the dog food thrown at her.
"nothing."
After a few breaths, Valentin returned to normal, stood up and gave Raphael a hug.
"Yihuang."
He noticed the girl standing next to him, let go of the angel and rubbed her head.
"I won't leave again."
After just one month of getting along with Valentin, he understood Xing Yihuang's mentality clearly. She seems to be emotionally like a child due to her childhood, and touching her head is extremely lethal.
Of course, hugs are still indispensable.
Razer was more reserved. After all, with her two younger siblings here, she couldn't do anything too intimate with her biological brother, so she just gave him a brief hug.
And just when Valentine let go of Razer and thought about how to leave, a fox suddenly jumped in front of him and opened his arms.
"Where's mine?"
The voice was lively and full of energy, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was raised high. There was a strange light in her eyes, full of longing.
Valentin glanced at Franca's fox tail that was spinning like a fan, and a drop of sweat fell from his forehead.
The young man felt murderous intent coming out of his back.
The sound of the gun being cocked engraved in the DNA sounded as if it was right next to my ears.
"Well……"
Valentine was a little at a loss.
In his eyes, his relationship with Franka is actually not very good. "Friends" are okay, but not to the point where we can hug each other and cheer.
Although she also participated in the "Saving Private Valentine" operation, it was mostly because of Razer.
...Actually, it's okay if it's just the two of them. It doesn't matter if they hug each other.
But the key is that there are other people at the scene, two of his girlfriends, and one is his sister. Valentin will definitely be more serious. Franka's enthusiasm actually pushed him into embarrassment.
"Uh-huh?"
Miss Fox, however, was completely unaware of the killing intent emanating from a certain angel and Valentine's embarrassment, and still waited with outstretched arms.
She even stood on tiptoes to show her impatience.
But what Franka was waiting for was not a hug, but a bright thunder light.
Crack!
"Provoke it!"
Razer couldn't stand it anymore and helped Valentine out. He threw a burst of electricity and turned Franka into an explosive fox.
What followed was the scream of the explosive fox that resounded through the forest.
…
"What are you doing!"
But like so many times before, this current only seemed to hurt a little, and the damage was not high.
Franka straightened her hair and glared at her partner next to her.
But Razer ignored her and stared further into the distance facing Valentine, frowning slightly. Her horns were still bright white, with occasional lightning flashes above them.
The sudden seriousness of Razer made everyone present feel that something was wrong, and they all turned their heads to look at the end of her sight.
The animals that were originally gathered around the edge of the grass spread through a gap, revealing the endless green sea behind. A tall figure emerged from the shadows, took a few steps forward slowly, stopped about ten meters away from the girls, and raised his hands.
"Hello."
Her voice was a little hoarse because of the mask, but the coldness in her words was revealed without reservation and flowed into Valentine's ears.
It was as if a sharp blade taken out of the iceberg was pressed against his neck.
Sharp and ruthless.
Even though the uninvited guest raised his arms to show that he meant no harm, the girls still did not let down their guard.
Razer picked up the shield and stood in front of him, placing his right hand on the holster. Xing Yihuang, who originally had the clean eyes of a child, seemed to be a different person now, and the coldness in his eyes was no less than that of the woman who suddenly appeared.
There seemed to be the sound of drumming on the grass, thick and majestic.
"I have no ill intentions."
The momentum erupted by the four people surpassed the mountains and seas, and was as fierce as a storm, as if it could overwhelm everything in the world.
That woman was like a small boat, which seemed to be overturned at any time, but she was not affected in any way and remained extremely indifferent.
Moreover, Valentine detected other emotions from her cold tone, as if...
Showing weakness, but extremely jerky.
"I have no ill intentions."
The woman repeated it again, and at the same time unbuckled the mask, allowing everyone present to see her face clearly.
Just as Valentine thought, this is a beautiful girl. The same style as Xing Yihuang, but with more blood and danger in the coldness, the word "killer" is almost written on his face.
No one will feel relaxed when they see her, because you can only read the message that she wants her own life from her eyes.
Even if it's a question.
"Who are you?"
Valentine thought for a moment, took a step forward and asked.
Since the other party says there is no malice, then you should also be friendly.
This is the basis for a smooth conversation.
"Operator from Rhode Island."
An expected answer.
Valentine didn't show much surprise, and the other four didn't let down their guard either.
Because the people who should appear on the ruins of Qicheng at this moment are the Ursus soldiers.
If you take an extreme guess, this woman is most likely to be Ursus' internal guard.
The temperament is also very consistent with their imagination.
"Rhode Island has been evacuated a long time ago, why do you stay here?"
Valentine really wanted to believe that the other party was the Rhode Island operator she mentioned, but there was a flaw in her logic.
The reason why Raphael and others stayed can be explained, but what is your reason?
Is Rhodes Island such a lousy company that values the lives of its operators?
"I encountered the Ursus inner guard during the mission. I was seriously injured and fell into a coma. When I woke up, Rhodes Island had already left."
The woman gave her reasons without saying a word.
Task?
Valentine lowered his head slightly, his brain aching.
The memories gradually became clearer, and a list appeared in front of me.
On it are the names of all the operators in Operation Qicheng.
"What's your codename?"
He didn't want to continue to write ink, so it was business to leave as soon as possible.
"Jue."
The woman announced a very oriental-style name, but Valentine frowned.
The name is not on the list, not even an oriental-style code name.
Except Xing Yihuang's "Dragon".
"I am an operator directly under Dr. Kelsey, and my name will not be on the list."
Seemingly seeing through his doubts, Jue explained again.
But it was enough for Valentin to confirm her true identity.
Rhode Island only has one team directly under Kelsey's leadership.
SWEEP.
Very few people know about this team, and most of them are elite operators on the island. Valentine is an exception, he is a time traveler after all.
"How...how do you know this place?"
And can you still come in?
Being able to ask this question means that Valentin chooses to believe in Jue's identity.
But there are still many questions, the most important of which is how she got here.
The young man had a vague feeling that there was someone very familiar to him behind Jue, guiding her to the right place at the right time.
That person seems...
No, not necessarily.
"Hello!"
Jiao Zhengyu suddenly jumped out from behind Jue, waving to Valentine and his group with a bright smile.
The girl's energetic voice instantly dissipated the high pressure on the grass and made him breathe a sigh of relief.
It is indeed this guy...
"Please come out early next time, thank you."
Valentine touched his forehead and shook off a look of resentment.
"It's good for everyone."
Needless to say, this silly girl had been watching the show in her mental space, and did not come out to rescue her until the critical moment.
"You guys can't fight anyway, so it doesn't matter if it's later~"
Today, Jiao Zhengyu seems to be particularly happy, switching to the energetic girl style, and the weirdness in his eyes is gone.
"Then explain it quickly and then go back."
Valentin waved his hand to signal the girls to lower their guard.
"You should know that her name is Jue and she is an operator from Rhode Island."
Jiao Zhengyu patted the shoulder of the person next to him. Jue understood and lowered his arm.
"When you told me what was in your heart that day, this girl's life was in danger."
"The internal guard of Ursus gave her a knife, leaving a big gash in her stomach and the blood was flowing."
"I saved her—but only her."
"Stop the bleeding, heal the wound, and cover your tracks."
Jue didn't respond, but Valentin noticed that her eyes dimmed slightly, as if she had been poked in a painful spot.
"This poor girl spent a day and night in a coma in the forest before she woke up. When she arrived at the extraction point, she couldn't even see a ghost."
"She wanted to use transportation within the city to leave, but soon realized that she couldn't get out."
"Because this place has turned into a tropical rainforest, it's very difficult to walk, let alone drive a car out."
Valentine shrugged, slightly regretful.
Rhode Island had determined the evacuation location before the mission began, so he did not let the forest cover those areas at that time.
Everywhere else has turned into a sea of green.
"So she can only stay and wait for your return."
"When you come back, she can leave here."
Having said this, Valentine looked back at Razer.
This is true.
"Then we are on the same page now, Miss Jue."
The young man smiled and said nothing more.
Jue nodded and still stood on the edge of the grass.
She knew very well that she was just incidentally. Apart from being both Rhode Island operators, they have no intersection.
and……
'Killer' and 'Friend' are in conflict, and feelings will only slow down the speed of drawing a knife.
Avoid it as much as possible.
However, the favor still had to be repaid, and this was what he had to pay for being saved.
Becoming friends with him, or some other kind of relationship, is inevitable.
"Six people..."
Valentine touched his chin, looking troubled.
"Sister, can the car you are driving fit in?"
In his mind, the only vehicles that could carry so many people were vans and some large SUVs. However, the one Rhode Island uses is quite similar to Earth’s military off-road vehicle, and it should be able to fit six people.
I mean, someone has to hang it on the rack, right...?
"Can."
Razer nodded.
"We came in an off-road pickup truck that could hold so many people."
She paused and continued: "It's just that someone might have to sit in the truck."
It is self-evident to whom this is addressed.
Jue didn't say anything about this. She walked quietly at the end of the team, keeping a suitable distance from Valentine and his group, leaving a safe space while not losing track.
After Jiao Zhengyu finished explaining, he disappeared, taking away the fragments of the Origin Stone that fell on the ground before leaving.
"That's good."
Valentine smiled and turned to look at Jue, who was at the end of the team.
He could feel that this sister had been looking at him.
But every time he looked back at her, he couldn't meet his gaze.
Am I so attractive?
...it seems to be true.
After all, your face is pretty pretty, right?
Cute and petite boys are very popular with girls, right?
Valentine pushed aside the bushes in front of him, and an off-road vehicle covered with a rainforest camouflage tarpaulin appeared in view.
We have reached the edge of the forest.
He put away his random thoughts and looked back into the distance.
In the distance, the Qicheng command tower, entangled with countless vine branches, stands in the forest, reaching into the sky.
It seems to be the tallest and vigorous tree in this green ocean.
This land full of sadness and despair finally said goodbye to Valentine at this moment.
This departure may be a farewell forever.
But everything that happened in this city will never be forgotten by Valentine, and part of his memory will always belong here.
Turned into motivation, supporting him to rush towards the distant and lofty dream.
