Chapter 520 Evolution

   "Sometimes I really envy the residents of Ideal City... They are born with a golden spoon in their mouths and have a lot of time to do nothing, but I seem to be doing this thing and the next thing all my life."

  In the evening, the hotel in Highway Town.

  Looking at the tourists from Ideal City, Zhou Nan took a sip of the mellow beer and let out a sigh of emotion.

  He could tell where those people came from at a glance.

  The distinctive temperament on them is easier to identify than the blue coats and bionic people.

  Sun Shiqi who was sitting opposite him smiled.

   "What's the matter? You envy them more than you envy people two hundred years ago. At that time, they not only had time to do nothing, but also had time to arrange us."

   "Schedule us?"

   “To put it another way, imagine the future.”

"Hahaha."

   Laughter dilutes the melancholy.

  Sun Shiqi clinked glasses with the drinking buddy sitting opposite.

  He made a small fortune by trading in steel. He is no longer a merchant, but a factory owner of the alliance. Most of his net worth has been invested in the industry of the alliance.

  If it wasn’t because of his previous status as a trader, he was not trusted by the Frostspear tribe who was once a refugee, and someone had never agreed to his pursuit, he might have tied his family to the Alliance.

   But having said that, although he is optimistic about the future of the league, he actually took some determination to do these things.

   A long time ago, he had been carrying a certain kind of "original sin" in his heart—that is, he was worried that the managers of the alliance would send loyal guards to silence him because he knew the truth that the silver coins were only a pile of game coins at first.

  It was only later that he realized that his worries were completely unnecessary.

   That person doesn't care at all.

   Actually think about it, so what if you know?

  Will people not eat rice poured out of manure because they know how it comes from?

  In the entire River Valley Province, no one doubts the value of silver coins, even the scavengers who are active on the edge of the Great Rift Valley recognize it.

  Especially recently, the bulk transaction price of corn officially fell below the 1 silver coin mark, and was suppressed to 0.9 by the influx of autumn grain from Luoxia Province.

   Just a year ago, this figure was 1.5. Even the cheapest green wheat and croissants were never so cheap!

Now the residents of Aurora City not only eat by themselves, but also eat by steaming, cooking, frying, and even feed the pigs and cows with excess food. The bar of the road town hotel has added a refuge resident Bread wine produced.

   But the wine was too strong, and it irritated the throat. Apart from the hipsters and the shelter residents themselves, not many people really liked to drink it.

   "Speaking of which, it's time to celebrate again."

   "Isn't this bad?"

   "There are celebrations every day, who will do the work?" Zhou Nan looked worried, "Your factory will also be on holiday."

  Sun Shiqi said with a smile.

   "It doesn't matter. It's not a holiday every day. It's been several months since the last celebration. I heard that there are more than 100 festivals a year in the Renlian era, and the alliance has only about four or five festivals so far. It's actually not bad."

   Zhou Nan shook his head.

   "Can it be the same? The productivity and efficiency of the People's Federation era are completely different from what they are now. Even if they don't work, they won't be hungry."

  Sun Shiqi said slowly.

"You're right, but you're not right. The alliance's productivity isn't very high, but it's definitely not weak. A few celebrations can definitely be held. There are no complicated bureaucrats here, and no nobles to support. Even if people are allowed to tighten their belts, no one will benefit, and the things produced must be used by someone to be meaningful, can they be forced to be handed over to those scholars who do research like the academy?"

   When he said this, he himself laughed out loud.

"It's a pity that even if the alliance wants to provide academic preferential treatment, there are not so many master scholars who can give preferential treatment. It's better to give the residents more holidays, so that everyone can be happy and spend with their wages, so that both factories and shops will be happy. They I am also happy."

   People live just to have fun.

  A person with a frowning face can't do big things. If he really does it, he will probably scare the others around him.

   "I still don't think it's good to be so extravagant at the beginning... Even if they want to treat the residents better, I think it will wait and maybe-"

  Sun Shiqi shook his head.

   “What needs to be waited on never comes.”

"What about after that? Even if there are no nobles now, there will be in the future. Isn't Boulder City the best example? The earliest residents of the inner city were all supporters of the post-war reconstruction committee. Now who remembers what the committee was going to do. "

  In order to prove that his logic is correct, Zhou Nan tried to find some arguments, and Boulder City is undoubtedly the best example. It is said that a group of noble survivors also lived there a century and a half ago. If they hadn't opened the gate of the huge wall, there would be no outer city as it is today.

   What is the difference between alliances?

  City owner Luca probably won't be able to give birth at that age, and he probably won't have offspring. Old Charlie heard that he was an old popsicle.

   But there will always be others.

  Spanner, the commander of the First Corps, and Liu Ding, the commander of the Second Corps, are in their prime.

   Their loyalty may not be to the alliance from the beginning to the end, but to the individual managers. It is difficult to say how far their ideals can go, and how far their children can follow them.

  Sun Shiqi knew what he wanted to say with that hesitant look, but he just grinned indifferently.

   "Let's talk about the future, our managers are not old yet."

  Hearing his words, Zhou Nan was stunned for a moment, and laughed.

   "Good guy...do you already regard yourself as a member of the alliance?"

   No wonder this guy has been speaking for the Alliance!

  Sun Shiqi said proudly.

"Otherwise? If it wasn't for the alliance, I would probably still be transporting grain to the slave owners and brokers in Honghe Town, and playing with them the futures game of red tickets and blue tickets. Since I bought the first warehouse here, I have Decided to become a Union resident."

   It is also emotional to say.

  At first, he bought a warehouse in Dawn City, just planning to wait until autumn to stock up on some grain, and then buy a few trucks to set up a trade route from the Alliance to Red River Town, and become the largest miner and grain merchant in the wasteland.

But it didn't take long for the alliance and the legion to start a war. A large number of shelter residents went to the battlefield carrying guns. The demand for smelting steel and copper mines suddenly skyrocketed, which made him see new business opportunities, so he immediately opened a mine next to the mine in Qingshi County. a steel factory.

   It's his hometown, it hasn't changed at all, it's still the same.

  Some time ago, it was said that Honghe Town was changed to Honghe Alliance, but after pondering for a long time, he realized that it was actually just a name change, and it was still the same old practice of changing the soup without changing the medicine.

Since the last time the Alliance cut off those arrogant guys in the copper ore trade, he discovered that the rich slave owners were not smart, they were just a group of lucky ones lying on a pile of treasures. Poor pigs on the road, soon their proud treasure will be worthless.

  Since the railway from Qingquan City to Xizhou City was completed, the coal, copper, iron, sulfur and other resources of the alliance can not only be self-sufficient, but can even be exported.

  He hasn’t gone to that garbage dump to buy goods for a while.

   "...Speaking of which, my friend, why do you have a pessimistic look? Did you encounter any difficulties?" Looking at the sullen Zhou Nan, Sun Shiqi cast a concerned look at him.

  Zhou Nan hesitated, sighed, and put down the beer glass in his hand.

   "Ah, something happened in my hometown. After a while... I may have to go back."

  Sun Shiqi remembered that he came from Jinchuan Province, a place called Hope Town.

"whats the matter?"

   "Naguo."

"What?"

  Looking at the bewildered Sun Shiqi, Zhou Nan explained.

   "A more effective thing than the spirit leaf, like hallucinogenic mushrooms, can make people see a grotesque world, but it will not make people weak, but... will adapt to weakness."

"What's the meaning?"

"For example...you are sick, and you should be weak and rest in bed, but now you eat Naguo, the virus is not cured, but it will merge with you, reach a reconciliation, and make you stronger. From then on , whether it is fever or pain, it will not make you uncomfortable, but will transform into pleasure... and make you stronger in the process."

   "Enjoy...joy?!"

"It's very distorted, isn't it?" Zhou Nan sighed as he looked at the drinking buddy who was so surprised that he couldn't speak. It will also make you more excited, whether it is the hope of killing or the hope of reproduction will increase."

   Wouldn’t it be better not to eat this kind of terrible thing?

  Suddenly, Sun Shiqi seemed to realize something.

   "Could it be..."

   "Yes, addictive."

  Seeing his expression, Zhou Nan nodded.

"...and it's not a slight addiction like tobacco and spirit leaves, it's a physical inseparable, once you stop eating, the virus that has reached a reconciliation with your body will quickly engulf you, and this process is no longer pleasure... but Deadly pain. But this is not the most troublesome thing, the most troublesome thing is that the land where it is planted will turn green, and the excrement pulled by the animals that eat it will also be green."

green…

  Sun Shiqi's Adam's apple moved, and he took a sip of beer to moisten his throat.

   "Are weeds growing?"

"It's not that kind of thing," Zhou Nan lowered his voice, "it's green that is visible to the naked eye... It's like the plague, once it gets on the soil, it will slowly change to the point where only that kind of thing can grow, and people and animals will gradually change. We cannot live without it. No one knows why, only that it came from the south, that is, from the coast of death. It is also said that it comes from the farther southern islands."

  Sun Shiqi said in disbelief.

   "How could anyone grow something like that... Are those ranchers crazy?"

  Zhou Nan shook his head with a wry smile.

   "Actually, they can't do anything about it... You've noticed, too, since Fallen Leaf City opened the railway, food has become less valuable."

  …

  Dawn City First Hospital.

   Fang Chang, who was waiting outside the operating room, was pacing back and forth in a complicated mood, both apprehensive and nervous.

  At this time, the door on the side opened suddenly, and he immediately walked forward, just in time to meet the doctor who came out wearing a mask.

"doctor-"

   Guessing what he was going to ask, the doctor replied skillfully.

   "The operation was successful, but it is best not to exercise strenuously these days to avoid affecting postoperative recovery. The diet should be less spicy and greasy, and eat more meat if possible..."

  Listening to what the doctor had to say, Chang Fang turned on the VM recording function and took notes carefully.

"I remember."

  The doctor took a second look at this guy.

   There are many residents of the shelter who come here for surgery, especially the residents of No. 404 shelter, and some of them are even his regular customers. Those guys never took his advice seriously, and some unlucky ghosts were even carried back the same day they bled profusely.

  But after thinking about it, he understood.

  Maybe it’s because I’m not the one doing the surgery…

   Patted Fang Chang on the shoulder, the doctor left for the next shift, and Fang Chang walked into the operating room quickly, looking at Dolly who was sitting on the operating table with dazed eyes.

  She was wearing a thin shirt. She had just woken up from anesthesia and was still not quite sober. She was staring blankly at the mirror in the nurse's hand.

  Looking at the ceramic-like smooth left arm, she carefully stretched out her hand, as if afraid of breaking it, and squeezed it lightly.

  The touch is as soft as real, and the temperature is exactly the same as the body temperature, and there is not even a trace of connection on the shoulders.

   Just like the real thing!

   including the left eye…

  Tears filled her eyes and moistened the corners of her eyes. She gently sucked her nose, covered her mouth and nose with her right hand, and sobbed uncontrollably.

  After being "eliminated" by the dragon's blood potion, she never thought that one day she would be able to live like a normal person, without having to carry heavy steel like shackles, let alone feel inferior because of her strange body and the strange eyes of others...

   "It's very beautiful." The nurse holding the mirror said enviously.

  Occasionally, someone will come here to assemble the bionic prosthetic body of Ideal City, but most of the shelter residents will pursue function, strength, and being different.

   Few people take comfort and beauty as the first reference.

   "It feels...as if it was specially made for you."

"Um…"

  White and immature face flushed slightly, Dolly raised her arms and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

   With the help of the nurse, she got up from the hospital bed and put on her shoes again, when she happened to see Fang Chang standing at the door.

   Fang Chang, who had been silent all this time, asked with concern.

   "Don't lie down for a while?"

  Looking at the eager boyfriend, the nurse smiled and replied for the "patient" next to him.

   "It's just a minor operation. If you want to lie down for a while, you can go to the next ward, but she is recovering well, so just go back and rest."

   As expected of the wasteland.

   Changing the arm turned out to be just a minor operation.

  Thinking of himself in reality, he would have to stay in the hospital for a while to pull out a tooth, Fang Chang couldn't help but blushed. But just going back like this, he still couldn't feel relieved, so he looked at Dolly worriedly.

   Seeing the worry in his eyes, Dolly blushed and nodded, moving her lips softly.

   "I'm fine...let's go back."

   "You must tell me if you feel uncomfortable." Fang Chang looked at her seriously and said with concern, "By the way, does it fit?"

   "Well...it looks like it grew out of me," Dolly looked at Fang Chang in confusion while speaking, "By the way, how do you know the size of my arm?"

  Her previous mechanical arm was not symmetrical at all, the left arm was slightly longer than the right arm, but this one was not only the same length, but even the color was exactly the same.

  The key is that I have never seen him measure it.

   Did you measure it secretly while you were asleep?

   "It doesn't have to be measured with a ruler," Fang Chang couldn't help smiling, looking at his confused girlfriend, "You forgot, we compared the size of our hands before."

  Dolly's eyes widened in surprise.

   "That's okay too?"

   "Well, it seems that I remember correctly."

   "But we have never compared arms..."

  Looking at those eyes that were still confused and confused, Fang Chang coughed lightly.

   "...do I have to say it here?"

   Dolly was slightly taken aback.

  At first she didn't understand, but when she met those eyes with a hint of mischief, she came back to her senses in an instant, and her cheeks turned red into apples.

  She slapped the nasty guy with her forehead aggressively, then moved closer to his shoulder and bit him in frustration.

   "Hiss... Are you a cat? You get your teeth on every turn."

  Although she didn't bite very hard, in order to relieve her anger, Fang Chang still made a cooperative grin.

   Didn't think it would hurt him to bite him, Dolly let go embarrassedly, hummed softly twice, and looked away with a blushing face.

   "Who wants you... bad-hearted."

  Fang Chang made an innocent expression.

   "I didn't say anything... why did you suddenly bite me?"

   "You...you know it in your heart!"

   She lowered her head in embarrassment, and after a while, she suddenly opened her mouth in an embarrassingly low voice.

"Thanks…"

  Fang Chang smiled and said.

"You're welcome."

  Seeing that Dolly accepted the gift generously, he was actually relieved.

  He wouldn't tell her why he was nervous in front of the operating room.

  In addition to worrying about the one-in-a-million accident that might happen during the operation, he also worried about whether she would think too much because of this special gift.

  For example, I misunderstood myself because I disliked the smell of motor oil on her body.

He didn't care about such insignificant things at all, he just felt that the mechanical arm was too heavy... Forget about the rough man of the wind, it's a pain for her to wear it every day with her small body, if it's not that she can't find a suitable one, order it It took time to do it, and he had already put it on for her.

   "Yes!" Dolly looked at him seriously and asked in a low voice, "Tell me honestly...how much did you spend?"

  Fang Chang looked at her helplessly.

   "Why ask that, you still want to pay me back."

   "Yes!" Dolly nodded vigorously, and said seriously, "I, I also have a job... Although the salary is not that high, I will work hard!"

  Looking at the serious eyes, Fang Chang knew that she was not joking or being polite, and couldn't help but feel a little headache.

   To be honest, this is more troublesome than the misunderstanding he was worried about before.

  Even if he pretended to be relaxed and described the process lightly, it would be difficult to change the fact that this gift was too expensive.

   It's not just a scarf or a meal, it's something that a million chips can't buy.

  It may be nothing to some people.

   But with Dolly it's totally different.

   What keeps her going is not the family she never had, but her self-esteem... deep down in her heart, that may be the only thing she has left.

She would not hesitate to accept the payment for buying information, even if it was a hard knock on the client... That was her way of making a living, and it was the fruit of her labor that she deserved, even if she later went to the newspaper office and asked Hal for payment and She has never been polite when it comes to bonuses.

  But if it is a charity out of mercy, even if she accepts it calmly, she will return it in another way.

  He could feel the sensitivity and entanglement in her heart, especially after knowing her identity.

  And this was what he was most worried about—she might interpret this overly expensive gift as a kind of pity or charity.

  He didn't mean this at all, and he didn't want her to feel owed to him because of this, always thinking about repaying this "kindness".

   Unequal feelings will one day be unbalanced by a certain party's carefulness, and he doesn't think she owes him anything.

   "Well, I said it was a gift and I found it with great difficulty... Talking about money is too hurtful." Fang Chang had a embarrassed expression on his face, and he was thinking quickly in his heart.

"But-"

   "Well," his eyes fell on the mechanical arm next to the operating table, his heart suddenly moved, and a smile appeared on his face, "That thing... is mine from now on."

   "That?" Dolly looked at the mechanical arm blankly, and whispered without confidence, "That...how could it be the same as this one."

   Even if she has never been to Ideal City, she can guess that one is something that cannot be bought with a pile of chips, and the other is mass-produced by Jushi Military Industry.

"Indeed." Touching his chin, Fang Chang nodded thoughtfully in agreement with her statement, "One is something that can be bought with a bunch of points, and the other is a limited-edition prop that carries countless memories... in my It seems that the latter is much more valuable than the former."

   "...expensive?"

   "Well, after all, it's also helped you through a long period of time, and life would be inconvenient without it."

  Looking at Dolly who was confused, he reached out and touched her head with a soft smile on her face.

"You may not understand, but it's okay. I just want to say, whether it's a happy memory or a painful memory... your past, present, and future, I plan to accept them all. It is the most precious thing."

  Those pupils were gradually covered with mist of emotion. Although the nurse standing aside didn't want to disturb the atmosphere between the two of them, she had to prepare for the next operation.

   Coughed lightly, she reminded kindly with a smile on her face.

   "Sir...how long will you stay here?"

  Suddenly came to his senses and realized that he was still in the operating room, Chang Fang smiled embarrassedly.

   "Sorry, I'll just take her away."

  Dolly's face blushed unconsciously, half from embarrassment, and half from embarrassment for disturbing other people's work.

   Gently pulled the long square cuff, she whispered.

"gone."

  The two left the ward in a hurry.

   Just as Fang Chang was thinking about where to go for a while, he suddenly saw an acquaintance walking towards him.

   "Falling Feather?"

  Hearing someone call his name, Luo Yu stopped in his tracks, and looked at the two of them, with a surprised expression on his calm face.

   "Ah, Fang Chang...you're back already?"

   "Well, I just came back." Fang Chang smiled, held Dolly's little hand, and introduced, "This is Dolly, my girlfriend."

  Dolly nodded politely.

"Hello."

"Ah, hello," with a friendly smile on his preoccupied face, Luo Yu greeted in an unskilled couplet, and then looked at Fang Chang, "By the way, have you seen my Xiao Yu? "

   "Xiao Yu?" Fang Chang was slightly taken aback, "It...what's wrong?"

"I don't know," Luo Yu shook his head, and said with a puzzled expression, "...it suddenly had a fever yesterday, and I brought it here, and the doctors here didn't know what to do, so they notified the scientific expedition team. By the way, a researcher came later and said that he was staying in the hospital for observation or something... In short, he asked me to come back today, but today I searched all day and couldn't find that NPC."

   "Could you be busy?"

   "Maybe... I hope there won't be another BUG." When talking about BUG, ​​Luo Yu looked depressed.

   I don’t know what’s wrong.

  He felt that he was targeted by the server, and he encountered all kinds of bugs.

   Fang Chang gave him a sympathetic look.

   "Need me to help you?"

  "...No, no, no," Luo Yu shook his head like a rattle, "Don't worry about me, I'll look for it myself, you go and do your work."

   As he spoke, he muttered and walked to the next office, intending to find a doctor who knew the situation and ask about the situation.

   Coincidentally, at this moment, several guards came over, entered the office, and took him to another place.

  The person headed by Fang Chang knew him.

   It was the young man named Lu Bei who often followed Chu Guang.

  The invisible gossip antenna above her head moved. The reporter's intuition made Dolly feel that things were not that simple, so she looked curiously at Fang Chang.

"Did something happen?"

   Fang Chang had a subtle expression on his face.

   "Maybe... a hidden mission has been triggered?"

   "Hidden mission?"

   "That has nothing to do with us," Fang Chang continued, squeezing her hand lightly, "Let's go, let's have dinner."

  …

  Vault 404.

  The warehouse on the B3 floor.

  Chu Guang, who was fully armed, was frowning and staring at the strange creature in front of him.

  It is like an overgrown human figure, the tapered skirt is glued to the floor, and slender tentacles are flying behind it, just like Medusa's hair.

   What's even more surprising is that it only took one night to change from its original appearance to its current appearance...

   "...Eep."

  The voice was weak, in stark contrast to its strong body.

  Looking at the tentacles dancing forward, the guards standing around Chu Guang showed nervous expressions and clenched their weapons tightly.

  If the monster dared to threaten their supreme leader, they would not hesitate to shoot it.

  But Chu Guang raised his hand, signaling them to put down their guns and back away.

  Perhaps because he was the first person it saw after its birth, its memory still retained its trust in itself, believing that it would not hurt it for no reason.

  He could feel that there was no threat in that weak voice, it was just asking for help.

  Chu Guang looked at Heya who was standing aside.

   “…what does evolution mean?”

   "Transition from mother to brood!"

  Completely different from those soldiers, Heya was not afraid, but there was a hint of excitement and excitement in her slightly trembling voice, and sweat oozes from her clenched fists.

  At this moment, her image is just like the classic villain image in Hollywood blockbusters—a scientific madman obsessed with biological experiments.

   That fanatical momentum even Chu Guang couldn't help but look at her twice more.

  If it was in the book, this guy probably would not end well.

   Not paying attention to Chu Guang's weird gaze, He Ya continued to speak with a frantic face.

"...I don't know if colleges and companies have done similar research, but this is the first time for us! You may not know what this means...We will witness the mother of the mutant slime mold, from the early stages of development From maturity, to the complete process of transition to the brood!"

   As she spoke, she babbled on a lot of obscure technical terms.

  It was like a witch's spell, and Chu Guang couldn't understand what she was saying at all.

  Although he believed in her professional level, he still interrupted her, staring seriously at those fanatical eyes, and said after a while.

   "I just want to know two things right now, what happens if you leave it alone, and what you should do if you want to do something to control the situation."

  He doesn't want the B3 floor of the shelter to become like the B6 floor. It's fine if the same accident happens once. There are many training cabins for players here.

   Taking a deep breath, Heya slightly recovered her usual calmness.

   "Sorry, I was a little too excited just now... To answer your question, leaving it alone is to let it evolve on its own."

"As for how to control the situation...I don't know how to control the situation, but we do have a way to interfere with the process of evolution. These are two options, no matter which one you choose, there is a gamble...It depends on which result you want .”

  Chu Guang asked immediately.

   "What is autonomous evolution?"

  Heya said concisely.

"Without any intervention, it will develop on its own, like most broods do. First it will go into a long, long period of dormancy, during which it will slowly metamorphose into a new life, the advantage is that we can collect Some interesting data, and the downside is that the outcome is uncontrollable, maybe it won't remember what happened before."

   Chu Guang asked puzzledly.

"why is that?"

  Heya replied briefly.

"There is no reason, this is my speculation based on the data collected before, including the data recorded in the B6 layer experiment. Just like a caterpillar turns into a butterfly, most of the cells in the pupa stage will be decomposed and digested into nutrients, becoming The nourishment of the imaginal disc cells... and the way the mother body metamorphoses into the brood is similar. This is the life process it must go through, sacrificing the past self, and then forging a stronger self."

  Chu Guang frowned.

   "What about interference?"

"Borrow the chrysalis." Heya replied bluntly, "in plain language, let it swallow the mother nest that has passed the chrysalis stage on the B6 floor, which is equivalent to that guy walking the path that it was originally required to go. .”

  Chu Guang froze for a moment.

   "Can this kind of thing be done?"

   "Of course, slime molds are such things, they devour everything, extract the secrets of genetics and analyze them, including their own kind, of course."

  Paused, Heya continued with a serious tone.

"However, this is not without risk. The probability of being devoured also exists, and it is not low. After all, you should understand how difficult it is for a toddler to defeat an old monster who has lived for an unknown number of years? Even if we It can help it, such as fixation inhibitors, etc., this is by no means an easy task...I tried to explain it in terms that you can understand, try to understand."

   "I understand," Chu Guang looked at Xiao Yu, and asked in a deep voice, "Which option makes it more likely to keep itself?"

  If it lost its memory and self in the process of evolution, then Luo Yu's efforts during this period of time are probably in vain.

   At least in Chu Guang's view.

  The reason why he was willing to take certain risks and allow Luo Yu to move freely with Xiao Yu was not because he was free, but because he needed a mutant slime mold that could understand humans and treat humans as partners rather than prey.

  Since it is impossible to eliminate this species from nature, try to domesticate them.

   It's not impossible.

  Before being domesticated, dogs were also competitors of humans in the food chain.

  Seeing Chu Guang with a serious expression, He Ya sighed.

"I can't give you an accurate probability for this kind of thing that has never happened before. It would be great if that white pigeon... is the guy from Lost Valley. He should be very experienced, but I'm afraid it's too late to find him now. gone."

   "And even if we find him, he may not help us." Chu Guang cast his eyes on Xiao Yu.

  He could sense its confusion about its own condition, and its desire to preserve itself.

   However, according to Heya, both options are bets, and the probability is not very high.

  At this moment, a guard wearing an exoskeleton strode up to him, his right fist resting on his chest, and he nodded slightly.

   "Master Manager."

   "We brought the person you were looking for."
