"That little girl is my property. Even if you bring her here, she can't be your gift as a guest."
Zero raised his eyebrows and gave a wicked smile.
Gu Bei smacked his lips: Tsk, how could he look so similar? He was exactly the same as Lu Mingze. Gu Bei felt that there was no need to guess anymore. This guy was definitely Lu Mingze himself.
"By the way, what does "loli" mean? "
Gu Bei pulled out a chair out of nowhere... Actually, he didn't pull it out. The things in the dream would change according to his thoughts, and it would be effortless to materialize a chair.
"Lori is the abbreviation of Lolita. It comes from the 1955 novel "Lolita" by Russian-American writer Vladimir Nabokov. It refers to the heroine's state when she was 12 years old. In other words, this Words can be used to refer to little girls, and they can also be used to refer to things related to them, such as you, you are a lolicon."
No. 0 is confused: "Lolicon"? What does "control" mean? "
"'Con' means to like, and Lolicon refers to the group that likes Lolita. "
"I see," No. 0 nodded, "If you put it that way, then I am indeed a lolicon."
Gu Bei looked at Number Zero saying this with a face that was exactly the same as Lu Mingze's, and it seemed as if some kind of terrible evil was brewing in his heart.
Not to mention how cool it is.
If possible, he even wanted to record this scene and play it to Lu Mingze the next time he met him.
But unfortunately, everything in the dream is an illusion that cannot be recorded.
Fortunately, through this link, Gu Bei also guessed some things, such as...
The person behind this dream was not Lu Mingze.
The reason is simple. Even if the number zero in front of him is not Lu Mingze, Lu Mingze himself will not allow this young man with a face exactly like his to say that he is a lolicon in front of Gu Bei.
Therefore, the owner of the dream is someone else.
Who is the one?
Odin?
Impossible, this old silver coin has always been silently planning, being the mastermind behind the scenes, and never actively pushing himself to the front.
Black King White King?
Putting aside the possibility that Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingze were the Black King, Gu Bei had never even seen a shadow of a creature like the White King. It was just a hypothetical existence that existed in the dragon genealogy and could not be confirmed.
The Four Dragon Kings?
Not to mention, Bronze, Fire and Earth and Mountain made it clear that none of the four dragon kings are good at mental and soul abilities, even if their souls are very powerful.
As a result, Gu Bei was confused.
Because there is no goal, there is no one in this world who can drag him into his dream without knowing it.
Could it be someone similar to Odin, who is at the Dragon King level, but has never appeared in the dragon genealogy?
It is possible, but it is too small. It is normal for an exception like Odin to appear in the dragon family, but it would be too outrageous for another one to appear.
Gu Bei couldn't think of a suitable answer, but Number Zero over there suddenly interrupted his thinking.
"Where do the guests come from?"
Gu Bei looked at Zero and found that his eyes were full of curiosity.
"I come from China, which is a very beautiful place... Do you need me to introduce it to you?"
"Of course, thank you very much."
The two of them were like old friends for many years. They chatted with each other one by one. The atmosphere during the conversation was relaxed and happy. Even an unrelated listener sitting next to them would feel the gentleness and harmony of the atmosphere.
Of course, the premise is to ignore the bad environment of this slaughterhouse.
"...In this way, Tianchao is really a very good place."
"Of course, China not only has the scenery of the North, but also has the tranquility of the south of the Yangtze River, the Qomolangma with thousands of years of snow, the vast Loess Plateau, the XSBN with dense grass and trees, the endless North China Plain, the Yellow River that flows for thousands of miles, and the mighty There are countless rivers and lakes along the Yangtze River.
“When you step out of the steel jungle lined with high-rise buildings, you can also see flowers blooming all over the valley in the wild. It’s not just spring, it’s not just beautiful flowers.”
As Gu Bei spoke, his fingers continued to make gestures in the air, with a proud look on his face.
"A mountain full of flowers? Many colors?"
Zero seemed to be hit by this sentence at a certain point, and he began to poke his head this way excitedly, and his body twisted uneasily, not caring at all that his wrists were bruised by the belt due to his vigorous struggle.
"Yes, yes, there are all kinds of flowers blooming on the green grass, in the deep valleys, and even on the cliffs. There are flowers of various colors, purple, white, pink, Red...when a gust of wind blows over, all kinds of refreshing aromas hit your face..."
Zero closed his eyes and seemed to smell the charming fragrance through Gu Bei's description: "It's so good..."
"yes……"
The topic ended here strangely, and then there was a cold silence, as solid as an iceberg.
The two looked at each other quietly without saying a word, but the smiles on their faces had faded, just like the photos of old friends that had faded away with the wash of time.
"You should know that this is not what I asked." Zero stared at Gu Bei with cold eyes.
Gu Bei spread his hands and said, "Just to liven up the atmosphere."
"So, who are you anyway?"
"Well, please allow me to introduce myself."
Gu Bei performed the etiquette of a medieval nobleman very gracefully. Although he had not learned standard etiquette, his good muscle control and coordination made his movements smooth and natural.
"My name is Gu Bei," he said while raising a ball of flame to form these two words in mid-air. "As for race, you must have noticed that I am not a mixed race. But a pure human being."
"Humanity……"
Number Zero stared at Gu Bei with a golden light in his eyes: "Is this also a joke to liven up the atmosphere?"
"How rude," Gu Bei smiled, "I introduced myself very seriously."
"..."
Silent, Number Zero looked Gu Bei up and down with suspicious eyes.
It is true that he did not feel the existence of any blood from the man in front of him. It stands to reason that this is an ordinary human being, but whether it was the teleportation when they met for the first time last night, or the hand playing with fire just now. The methods are not like what ordinary humans can do.
But it did happen, in front of him.
Zero laughed dumbly, the golden color in his eyes began to disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his body relaxed.
After a few seconds passed, he spoke in a relaxed and familiar tone again: "I never thought that there are people like you among humans. It seems that I am short-sighted."
"as big as World, nothing is nonexistent."
"I have learned a lesson," the young man nodded and said to himself, "Then let me introduce myself. You can call me No. 0. As for my race..."
A hint of gold flashed in his eyes again, with a playful smile on his lips: "Of course not a mixed race."
Gu Bei nodded: "Very good. Now that we understand each other, I think we have established a basis for negotiation - or transaction."
"First of all, I roughly understand what you need."
"Oh, really?"
Number Zero was a little disapproving. "Do you really think that's what I need? Or why do I have to trade with you?"
Hearing these words, Gu Bei couldn't help laughing and asked, "Do you know what the essence of life is?"
Before Zero could speak, he asked and answered himself: "It's not about survival and reproduction, nor about enjoying happiness, but what is clearly at hand but no one can ever truly get it - freedom!"
"It doesn't matter what species it is, it's the same for humans or hybrids. Freedom is something engraved in the bones. For all individuals with life in this world, freedom is something that life is born with but cannot be pursued."
"Just like you are now."
Gu Bei pointed at No. 0, who was tied to the recliner in a straitjacket, and then pointed outside the door. The moonlight in the polar night shone down, giving the lawn a layer of silence: "You won't really feel that leaning against Lei Isn’t that little girl Nata infallible?”
Zero narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Do you know what you are doing?"
"Of course, I'm negotiating business with a devil."
Gu Bei smiled brightly: "No one in this world can take advantage of the deal with the devil, because the devil is greedy. They always want to pay less in exchange for more in the transaction, using sweet words, sugar-coated bullets, and manipulating desires. , heartbreaking loopholes, they always win, you are such a devil."
"But it doesn't matter. I don't want to get anything from you. Just the act of helping you is enough for me to see something different."
"Well, if you say that, you may be even less willing to cooperate with me, so there is one thing I want to tell you." Gu Bei cleared his throat and dropped a bombshell, "This great red alliance is about to disintegrate, and everything will Destroyed, you should understand what that means.”
Under Gu Bei's face-to-face offensive, No. 0 could no longer remain silent, because he keenly felt the bloodshed from these words.
"Approximately how long, I mean, time here."
Time here... It seems that this non-hybrid Number Zero has also noticed Gu Bei's true nature.
But it doesn't matter, Gu Bei doesn't care about this.
"Actually, it's pretty close. What time is it now?"
"December 21st."
"Oh, it's not far away from Christmas... It's not far away from that day either."
Gu Bei remembered the time of the destruction of Black Swan Port mentioned in the Black Swan Port plan that Shutoku Mai gave him: "I mean, Christmas is that day."
"...What a great day."
Zero put away all disguises this time, and his eyes became cold and solid: "We can start talking about the deal."
"No, no, no, we are "cooperating", No. 0... or, in other words, Dear King. "
——
What followed was a few lazy days. Every day, I chatted in room zero or teased the little girl Renata.
Gu Bei didn't have anything to prepare. He just needed to wait for the right time and then take Lu Mingze far away, witness the destruction of Black Swan Port, and investigate who took away Eli Yi's embryo.
It sounds very busy, but in fact it all happened after the destruction of Black Swan Port.
During this time, Gu Bei was mainly busy looking for the dragon bones.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess where the keel is. This Siberian snowfield stretches as far as the eye can see, and Black Swan Harbor is such a big place. You can guess that the keel is underground.
The problem was that Gu Bei couldn't find the exact location and entrance, so he could only determine a rough range based on the smell left behind after the death of the dragon.
After all, the taste of dead life is still a bit thin.
In addition to looking for the keel, Gu Bei occasionally went back to observe the main work of Black Swan Port: experiments on hybrids.
To be honest, Gu Bei's opinion of Black Swan Harbor's research on hybrids is still a bit rough. It's like studying the physiological structure of white mice. There are very few other situations other than dissection, and there are few in vivo experiments. So pitiful.
Herzog and Bondarev have not gotten together during this time. These two scheming guys don't know what they are planning, but it is not a good thing after all.
The evacuation plan is proceeding step by step.
As for number zero?
He was fooling Renata again.
Gu Bei didn't know what obsession Zero had for Renata. After all, this little girl's temperament was just like that. If he wanted to get her to work, he had to go out of his way to please her and then draw all kinds of cakes; in the end, before the plan was implemented When doing it, I have to pray tremblingly that nothing will go wrong.
Zero listed this little girl as a backup plan, which was simply looking down on Gu Bei.
Number Zero's explanation for this is: "Rather than cooperate with a cunning human, I would rather please an innocent little girl. At least she is a good blood descendant, and she is much cuter than you."
Gu Bei understood that Number Zero was not only a lolicon, but also a pretty girl.
But the little girl Renata is indeed more obedient as Zero said. Every night, Renata will walk down the dark corridor and come to Room Zero with the light of a chandelier swaying in the wind. .
Gu Bei didn't ask for trouble. When Renata went to find Zero, Gu Bei would stay in the little girl's room, like an idiot.
The little girl's room is very clean. No, it's not so much clean as there is nothing at all.
Only a withered Arctic poppy sat on the windowsill.
Black Swan Port is located in the far north of Siberia. In such an extremely cold zone, even the Arctic poppy only has a two-month flowering period.
Renata dug this whole flower from the garden when the Arctic poppy was blooming, planted it in a tin box, and placed it near the radiator, hoping that the withered flower branches would come back to life with a little warmth. .
The little girl does this every year, but never seems to succeed.
Gu Bei approached the arctic poppy and started to work the Liuku Immortal Thief in reverse, channeling the vitality in his body into the dead flower that had begun to wither.
The leaves of the withered flower moved and fell silent again.
In this leisurely way, three days flew by quickly.
