Chapter 63 Despair
"despair?"

"Yes, you should know that our survival actually depends on the shelter of the Stone of Life. It is precisely because there is the largest Stone of Life here that this fortress is called the Sanctuary."

The soldier behind the bar was a little uneasy and called out, "General Yu?"

"It's okay, he's not an outsider."

Seeing what Yu Jia said, the soldier closed his mouth, looked at Huang Quan with curiosity and confusion, mixed another glass of wine, and pushed it to Huang Quan.

No need to drink it, Huang Quan knew that this glass of wine was stronger and more prone to seizures.It seems that this warrior respects Yu Jiahui, but he wants to give Huang Quan a bad start, or he just wants to test his strength, either way, Huang Quan doesn't like it.

He looked at Yu Jia, picked up the glass, and drank it down.

Yu Jia was also taken aback by this way of drinking.She stared at Huang Quan for a full 3 minutes, but Huang Quan's face was not red, and his breath was not unstable, as if what he just drank was not wine, but water.

The eyes of the soldiers behind the bar were straightened, and they involuntarily picked up a few wine bottles and looked at them, so as to confirm that what they were mixing was indeed a mixed wine.There were still less than half of those wine bottles left, and the strong smell of alcohol emanating from the mouth of the bottles proved that there was no water in them at all.

Yu Jia stared at Huang Quan for a while, and then said reluctantly: "Well, maybe you can drink better than me."

Huang Quan smiled and didn't answer. The biochemical organs in his body had already extracted the alcohol, decomposed it into nutrients that the body could use, and then stored it.

This is actually cheating, of course Huang Quan will not tell the truth.

If the old fellows of the Imperial Research Institute know that he uses the biochemical organs in the digestive system in this way, they will probably chatter a few words. This device is not for increasing the amount of alcohol, but for accelerating the absorption and decomposition of toxins .

"You haven't said why you are desperate." Huang Quan continued the topic.

"Hundreds of years ago, the sanctuary decided to separate some people to establish settlements, because under the siege of ogres, the energy of the stone of life gradually declined unstoppably. Our most elite fighters continued to die in battle, edible The number of people and ghosts is increasing, and if this continues, everyone will perish sooner or later, it is only a matter of time."

"when did it happen?"

"I can't remember the exact time. There are fewer and fewer historical materials in the shelter. All the energy is used to survive. I can't even live. What's the point of history?"

This is almost the same as the idea of ​​the settlers, except that the shelter is larger, with better infrastructure, and has existed for a longer time, and it has not yet reached the point where it faces the pressure of survival every day.

Yu Jia took a sip of wine and said, "The settlements are like seeds. We spread the seeds out, expecting them to grow stronger, build new shelters, expand the power of the Stone of Life, and even create Create a new stone of life. With the stone of life, our group can continue."

"and after?"

"Later? That's what you saw."

She pointed to the dark neighborhood, "About 100 years ago, we stopped sending out new settlements. Because the number of people in the shelter has been reduced to a critical point, if it is less, it will be difficult for us to maintain our own survival."

"Has the shelter always existed? How have you managed to keep it going for so many years?"

The soldier behind the bar interjected, "What's so difficult about this? You've seen it all. We have all kinds of factories here, and we still have a lot of stock. Whatever you want, you can make it yourself."

Huang Quan shook his head, "Impossible, it is impossible to collect all raw materials in one place, you should have external supply channels."

A strange light flashed in Yu Jia's eyes, and she said slowly, "I'm getting more and more curious about your origin."

"I'm the one from that settlement."

"It is impossible for the settlers to have insight like yours."

The various factory facilities in the shelter seem to be complete, but the raw materials required are also diverse.The parts of a chariot are not just metal, and it is impossible for various raw materials to appear in the same area.

This is the difference in the natural environment. In the empire, citizens with a little education will have this common sense.But in this world, common sense has become rare insight.

Huang Quan didn't answer.

Yu Jia stared at him for a long time, knowing that he couldn't find the answer, so she stopped asking, but said: "We do have external channels, and that is the Holy Land..."

"General!" The soldier behind the bar reminded again.

Yu Jia said indifferently: "Don't worry, I won't violate the rules. The existence of the Holy Land itself is not a secret. It's up to the consul to decide whether to tell him or not."

The soldier stopped talking.

Yu Jia got up and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to see the consul."

Huang Quan got up as he said, and followed her.Now that things were going on, he could see that Yu Jia came to him not on a whim, nor just because of an obscure dream. The final answer should be with the consul.

The two of them didn't go far, when suddenly the window of a barracks several tens of meters ahead exploded, and a figure knocked out from inside and landed on the ground.Immediately, the gate of the barracks opened, and several soldiers rushed out from inside, outflanking the figure.

Huang Quan only glanced at it from a distance, and his face changed instantly.

It was Haruka who rushed out of the window on the third floor.

Yu Jia was calm at first, but when she saw Huang Quan's expression change, she made a move.Just as she was about to say something, Huang Quan had disappeared from the spot.

Yao rolled a few times on the ground, dissipated most of the momentum, and then turned over and stood up.There were scratches all over her body, her hair was disheveled, her clothes were disheveled, and a large piece was torn on her back, almost exposing her entire back.That breach looked like it had been torn open.

Yao barely stood up, her feet were weak, and she almost fell down. She supported her left leg, her face pale with pain.It seems that she jumped down from the third floor too hastily, without any protection, and fell directly on the hard concrete floor, and the fall was not light.

With a sway of her body, she fell backwards, and a big hand supported her from behind.

Yao didn't even think about it, he just swung his elbow and hit back, but halfway through the blow, he just let out a cry.The warmth and firmness of that big hand were so familiar that Haruka could even imagine its texture just by the feeling of skin contact.

"It's me, it's all right." Huang Quan's voice calmed down the girl in an instant if it had magic power.

Several soldiers from the shelter rushed over and surrounded the two of them. They were also disheveled, and some were bare-chested.

"Who are you? Why haven't I seen you?"

"At first glance, I knew it was a savage who came back from outside, and probably sneaked in."

"Damn, he won't be infected with any disease, pass it on to us?"

"Never mind him, if you dare to sneak into the core area, kill him first! Let's go and have fun with this little wild girl!"

"Yes, just do it!"

A few soldiers talked to each other, with fierce eyes in their eyes, and surrounded them with malicious intentions.

You don't need to ask too much, just listen to what they say, and look at their appearance, Huang Quan can also know what happened.His eyebrows raised slowly, and a dark red light began to glow in the depths of his pupils.

"Wait!" Yu Jia finally arrived, and shouted to several soldiers: "Line up, stand still!"

The soldiers in the sanctuary were stunned. Although they were a little reluctant, Yu Jia's prestige was obviously strong enough. They put away their previous evil appearance and stood in a row.

Yu Jia glanced at Xiang Yao first, and then said to Huang Quan: "She has a good relationship with you?"

"As I said, I am more concerned about how many people there are in the settlement." Huang Quan felt that this is enough, and there is no need to repeat the threats.

"It seems that your relationship is very unusual. Is this your woman?"

"that's not important."

Yu Jia nodded and said, "Okay, let's leave this matter alone. I told you that the people in the shelter are very desperate now, and some people can't control themselves. When all the people in the settlement have passed the observation period, It's my own."

"Is that so?"

Yu Jia sighed: "They fight every day, and it's rare to encounter something new..."

The soldiers listened to the conversation between Yu Jia and Huang Quan. Although they didn't object, they stared at Huang Quan and Yao's eyes, which was extremely fierce and unruly.

Yu Jia is strong enough, so they can't refute her face in person, but it's hard to say where she can't see.

Huang Quan looked at them, and they all stared back, not hiding their hostility at all, and some of them directly gave the girl the middle finger, and shrugged upwards, which was extremely obscene.

Huang Quan saw everything in his eyes, turned his head to Yu Jia and said, "You said just now that the people in the shelter are very desperate, and these people should be the same."

"Yes." Yu Jia didn't understand why he mentioned this, and replied subconsciously.

"Well, I'll help them out." Huang Quan's voice was very calm.
