Quick Travel: Card Destroyer

Chapter 273 Tempering the World

The hour hand points to eleven o'clock, and the "nightlife" of the Evernight Period officially begins.

Some people sleep peacefully with the expectation of tomorrow, while others are afraid that they only dare to sleep lightly, fearing that enemies will come to their door or others will take a fancy to the supplies they carry.

There is also a group of people who are ready to take advantage of the time when most people choose to fall asleep. Today they steal this warehouse and rob that store of liquor and tobacco the next.

In the Xinpingqiu base, a total of twelve people including An Cuo were gathered in the main control room of the base, and eleven people had their eyes open.

The only one who closed her eyes and rested her mind was An Cuo. Once others noticed that something was wrong, they would wake her up and go to deal with it.

As a result, the night seemed extremely long. Lu Lu's character was a bit restless, so he randomly pulled someone over to chat with him: "Hey, a long time ago I asked people on the Internet, people who promote technology are not afraid of being cheated. Control it? After arguing for a long time, there was no conclusion."

Unfortunately, the person who was caught chatting was an old civil engineering lady from the same class. She didn’t even look at Lulu. She just stared at the surveillance screen and muttered: "Technology, there are leaks in it." Risk, as long as you are willing, it is always possible for it to leak out, but it is the same for everyone, anyone can take advantage of this, it is the same for us, and it is the same for us."

"That's it." A pair of eyes rolled in Lulu's eyes, and Ah Qiao took out three booklets from his bag and was reading one of them carefully.

Taking a closer look, it is a book about how to practice medicine under difficult conditions.

"Mom left it for me." Ah Qiao shook the book in her hand, holding an eternal pen tightly between her fingers. After the apocalypse began, she almost only carried this pen.

It leaves marks on the pages, but the nib never shows wear. Ah Qiao doesn't know what the principle is, but as long as it's easy to use, he won't be stingy about using it.

There is a folding knife hidden in the palm of the hand, and a new piece of the scalpel blade left by my mother is removed and installed in case of emergency.

"Is there anyone?" A figure flashed across the screen, and Sister Tumu became nervous instantly, and the others tensed up as well.

Lu Lu put one hand on the back of Sister Tu Mu's chair, and leaned her head close to the screen to carefully identify the figure that flashed twenty.

But even though his eyes were sore, he couldn't see any characteristics on the other party, so he muttered: "It's bad, when the apocalypse comes, you won't be able to tell whether anyone is a woman or a man walking on the street..."

"Stop talking nonsense, call someone first," Sister Tumu couldn't help but roll her eyes, "It doesn't matter if he is a mule or a horse, you will know after you burn him."

A round brain melon took up almost three-quarters of her sight, making her almost unable to see all the surveillance cameras. No wonder she was in a bad mood.

Two people moving bricks at the construction site found handy weapons and stood guard in front of the door. Three professional technicians were familiar with the structure of various equipment in the main control room. It seemed that the truck driver was a little idle, but if there was a problem at the base, they were always ready to intervene. Everyone gets in the car and runs away.

Lan Shan patted An Cuo's right shoulder: "Wake up, someone is coming."

The latter gasped and covered his right upper arm with a look of pain on his face.

But people do wake up.

"Uh, I didn't mean to..." Realizing that he seemed to have touched An Cuo's injury, Lan Shan quickly apologized and helped her rub the sore spot.

The frown on the oval face finally relaxed a little.

Lan Shi was about to get up and look for medicine, but he was stopped by An Cuo the next second: "I'm fine, it's more important to hold on to the base. Wait until this wave passes before grabbing medicine. There is a lot of medicine here."

"..." Lan Shi was speechless for a moment.

The Pingqiu base was fully equipped with medicines, and she figured out the reason almost instantly. She felt more and more like this place was like a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, rather than a shelter.

Seeing An Cuo staggeringly stand up and walk towards the door of the main control room, with his left hand pressing the door handle, ready to open the door and set fire at any time, Lan Shi felt an inexplicable emotion brewing in his heart.

He is said to be a tyrant, but he is actually just a child. At most he is about the same age as those three college students. Perhaps he was still in school like them before the apocalypse began. Now, because he has powerful powers, he has rolled through the killing fields and has become a number of killers. One of the bloody killers.

The downside of being famous as a killer is that everyone is always thinking about the head with dark circles around his neck. He probably hasn't had a good night's sleep for a whole year in case bounty hunters come unexpectedly.

A strange sense of responsibility began to trouble Lan Shi's heart. She wanted to go up and hug the young man who took the initiative to take responsibility, but her reason held her firmly in place and told her not to disturb him. The black and red flames burned, and he followed the door handle to the outside, trying his best to sense the information coming from the nearby buildings.

Judging from the surveillance footage captured by Sister Tumu just now, this person should have come straight to the main control room, so he is either a former member of the base, or someone who deliberately wants to take down the base.

The former will be killed without mercy, while the latter... there is no guarantee that they will be friends.

But this time they were lucky. Just when An Cuo felt that his eyes were about to explode, they finally "see" the whole picture clearly through the flames.

"It's one of our own." She put away the flame and let go of the door handle. She felt a strong dizziness in her head and staggered her body back two steps. With quick eyes and quick hands, she stepped forward to help An Cuo.

Seeing that everyone was about to open the door to the main control room, An Cuo stood up and stopped them, his voice hoarse: "Wait a minute, we have to read the code, the king of heaven will cover the tiger of the earth."

The person outside the door responded through the access control communication: "Pagoda suppresses the river demon."

“Kung Pao Chicken.”

"Fish-flavored shredded pork."

"Care and hard work can rejuvenate a country."

"Close your eyes to rest your mind."

"I am a tyrant."

"I'm a rich woman."

After several rounds of code matching, An Cuo finally agreed to open the door.

The person outside the door took off his hood, revealing his unshakable brown single ponytail.

It wasn't until he saw this face that An Cuo showed a relieved smile.

The next second, he fell straight down. If Lan Shi and "rich woman" Xie Tinghua hadn't acted quickly, that harmless oval face would have had a close contact with the floor.

"Hey, you kid -" Xie Tinghua said half reproachfully and half concerned, "I'm the one doing it tonight. If it were anyone else, I'd be blind on the spot!"

She skillfully opened An Cuo's eyelids, and the whites of his eyes turned blood red at some point.

"Looking at her thick lenses, high myopia, and some changes in the shape of her eyeballs, her superpower is nothing to ordinary people, but to her it is a life-threatening talisman." The woman with a brown single ponytail put the wrong lens on He put his glasses aside, sighed resignedly, and took out a small box from his pocket.

Inside was a brand new eye drop.

She briefly glanced at the instructions and explained to the people who gathered around her: "The group is inspecting her. If this introduction is successful, this base can receive support from Feixue Group."

An Cuo had been entrusted by Xie Tinghua for a whole year, and a successful introduction was almost certain, so when the latter applied for an advance payment of specific medicines, he got it without much hindrance.

On the day when the medicine was delivered by Bai Daguao, he specifically said: "This box of eye drops can only be used for emergencies. Normal use will last until she comes to the group to report."

She didn't expect the situation to be so serious that she would have to use it as soon as she arrived.

I went to see "It's Hot". It was really good. I highly recommend it.

I won’t go into any spoilers here, but the shortcomings do not hide the good points.
