Embers Ad Infinitum

Room 14 where the "Old Tune Group" was located returned to a solidified silence, and only the sound of his own breathing was faintly audible.

　　 In this situation, Shang Jianyao had experienced it last time, but Jiang Baimian said that he would stay next door and would not leave.

　　 In the darkness where he couldn't even see his fingers, Shang Jian Yao seemed to have adapted a lot, without any fear.

　　 He thought for a while, left his position, bypassed the corner of the table in memory, and came to a relatively empty sofa area.

　　 Then, he sat down slowly, sat on the cold ground, and crossed his legs.

　　 In the solidified darkness, Shang Jian Yao maintained this posture, raised his right hand, and squeezed both temples.

　　 Soon, his head dropped, and he just sat down and fell asleep.

　　 This must not be able to maintain his balance, his body leaned to the side little by little, leaning against the sofa, and then his head against the armrest.

　　…………

　　In the faintly flowing illusory sea, Shang Jianyao once again saw the dark brown soil and rocky island.

　　——As long as he can't hold on and wakes up from fear, the next time he enters, he must not be on the island, but in the "sea of ​​origin" next to him.

　　Shang Jianyao has long been accustomed to the current environment, and quickly lowered his head, looking at the blurry himself reflected by the illusory water waves.

　　 He spoke in a low voice:

　　"The island is very dark, and room 14 is also very dark;

　　 "There is no sound outside of me on the island, and no sound outside of me in Room 14;

"and so?"

　　 Shang Jian Yao paused and answered his own question:

　　 "So, the island is Room 14."

As soon as 　　's words fell, his eyes remained dark and grabbed the edge of the island and turned it up.

　　 There is no accident, his eyes have become pitch black again, and his ears have lost all sounds except himself.

　　 Shang Jian Yao did not hesitate to sit down, sat on the cold ground, and crossed his legs.

　　 This is exactly the same as his posture before falling asleep.

　　 The dark and silent surroundings made him feel familiar. He seemed to be able to point out that there was a single sofa on the right hand side, with a coffee table diagonally in front of him, a back chair, a bench and a low stool.

　　 Next door, Jiang Baimian is waiting for him to shout if there is anyone.

　　 Shang Jianyao's mood calmed down instantly. Like the previous two nights, he thought about the various things he had encountered recently and guessed what type of sacrament other cult organizations had.

　　This makes him raise his right hand from time to time and wipe the corner of his mouth. Only when he thinks that the communion of the monastic order is likely to be oil and batteries, he shook his head and expressed deep regret.

　　Time flies, Shang Jianyao tried to stand up several times, sing loudly or ask if anyone was there, but he forcibly controlled himself.

　　 Jiang Baimian is next door anyway.

　　 When he controlled himself again and again, and no other accidents happened, he began to feel that this darkness and silence seemed to be nothing, and could not destroy himself at all.

　　 He even sang a song softly, happy but contented.

　　 I don’t know how long it has been before Shang Jian Yao was really a little sleepy, so he closed his eyes indifferently and recharged.

　　 Then, he really fell asleep.

　　 Suddenly, a pure ray of light shone into here, shining a fiery red before his eyes.

　　 Shang Jian Yao opened his eyes and saw that the surrounding darkness was quickly dissipated, and heard a slight rattling sound from the illusory sea.

　　The dark brown mud and rugged rocks on the island are shown in large numbers.

　　 The light immediately penetrated his eyes, causing him to subconsciously lift his right hand and block it in front.

　　 After closing his eyes and opening his eyes, Shang Jianyao saw the glowing fluorescent lamp and the white and gray ceiling.

　　 He realized that he was leaning on the armrest of the single sofa, sleeping in a mess.

　　 Because room 14 has lighting and no longer meets the preset conditions, his "inference clown" has failed.

　　 Shang Jian Yao immediately turned his wrist and looked at his watch.

　　 The pointer above shows that it is 6:30.

　　 This is the time when the street lights are restored.

　　 Shang Jian Yao closed his eyes again, not knowing what he was feeling.

　　 Then, he supported the armrest and looked sideways to the door.

　　 It was just a few seconds, the slight footsteps approached, and Jiang Baimian's clothes appeared wrinkled at the door.

　　 While rubbing her eyes, she looked at Shang Jian Yao on the ground, and asked curiously and funny:

"What is this doing?"

　　 "Keep the same posture inside and outside." Shang Jianyao said the truth that most people don't understand.

　　 Jiang Baimian was taken aback first, and then he woke up:

　　"Are you trying to face the fear in the Sea of ​​Origin again?

　　 "Have you won?"

　　 "It's a win. Although it didn't admit defeat, it never reappeared." Shang Jian Yao thought about it.

　　 Jiang Baimian suddenly became excited:

　　 "Then what has changed in your ability?"

After 　　 finished, she hurriedly added:

　　 "You don't need to answer if it is not convenient to answer."

　　 Shang Jian Yao said frankly:

　　 "This time it seems that only the scope has changed.

　　"It’s improved a bit, but not too much.

　　 "When you are at the twelve or thirteen meters position, I can find your presence and feel that you can lose a movement in your hands."

　　 "Lack of movement with both hands...what is the scope of this ability before?" Jiang Baimian asked.

　　 "Ten meters." Shang Jianyao did not hide.

"That has increased by almost 30%...This is the first fear. After you have overcome more, and then find yourself, your ability may be doubled, or even three or four times." Jiang Baimian thoughtfully He smiled, "It turns out that your sensing range is the range of ability."

　　 "According to the ability with the largest range." Shang Jianyao pointed out the lack of rigor in Jiang Baimian's statement.

　　 Jiang Baimian asked curiously:

　　 "The range of other abilities is less than ten meters?"

　　 "'The Clown of Reasoning' was originally three meters, and the'Affectionate Man' was originally five meters." Shang Jianyao replied seriously.

　　 Jiang Baimian was a little embarrassed:

　　 "Stop, stop, this is your secret, it can't be said in such detail."

　　 Shang Jian Yao glanced at her, and said in a deep and unrelenting voice:

　　 "The four of us can be regarded as companions who have experienced life and death together several times. In most cases, I think we can all be trusted. We can protect each other's wings and back, and we can charge together..."

　　 "Stop! Your repeater!" Jiang Baimian couldn't help laughing and cursing.

　　 This is the rhetoric she used last night to defuse Shang Jian Yao's inner fear.

　　 Don’t give this guy a chance to jump in his mind, Jiang Baimian asked quickly:

　　 "Since you have already won, why can't you get up? Is it comfortable to sit on the ground cross-legged?"

　　 Shang Jian Yao answered sincerely:

　　 "Because my legs are numb."

　　 "..." Jiang Baimian laughed, "Do you need my support?"

　　 "No." Shang Jianyao responded indifferently.

　　 Jiang Baimian was about to say not to be aggressive, when he saw Shang Jian Yao propping up his hands, turning his body over, and the whole person stood upside down.

　　 stood upside down...

　　 Then, Shang Jian Yao walked towards the door lightly and happily with his hands as his feet.

　　 "..." Jiang Baimian was speechless.

　　…………

　　 Another day passed, at nine o'clock in the morning, in the parking lot on the surface area of ​​"Pangu Biology".

　　 "Still an old partner." Jiang Baimian pointed to the gray-green jeep with plenty of space, "It has been repaired."

　　 She swept over the excited Shang Jianyao, the quiet Bai Chen, and Long Yuehong who was full of depressed expressions, and asked:

　　 "Have you read the mission plan?

　　 "Any questions about our route?"

　　 "No!" Shang Jian Yao and Bai Chen responded loudly.

　　 The latter was less restrained when he first joined the "Old Tune Group".

　　 "No." Long Yuehong was a little short of breath today.

　　 Jiang Baimian ignored him, opened the trunk, pointed to the contents and said:

"Still the previous weapons, the'Ice Moss' pistol, the'Union 202', the'Orange' rifle, the'Berzer' assault rifle and the'Tyrant' grenade gun. Well, in order to make up for the lack of heavy firepower, I have an application this time. The anti-armor shoulder-mounted single-soldier rocket launcher is nicknamed "Reaper".

　　"The corresponding ammunition is sufficient. In addition, some common bullets are also available.

"There is more food prepared than before. After we go to Shuiwei Town, we have to rush to Yecao City as soon as possible. It is best not to delay on the way. Although there are always intelligence personnel investigating over there, there is no major problem without us, but we still have to Do your part, saving people is like fighting fire.

　　 "Also, it's almost winter, and it's hard to find enough food in the wild..."

　　After explaining various matters, Jiang Baimian asked:

　　 "What else do you want to ask?"

　　 When Bai Chen and Long Yuehong shook their heads, Shang Jianyao stepped forward and asked questions:

"When to set off?"

　　 "...now." Jiang Baimian rubbed his teeth.

　　 They entered the jeep as before. They were driven by Jiang Baimian. They passed through the heavy metal gate and entered the dust.

　　Unlike last time, they all put on sunglasses in advance and were not pierced by the morning sun.

　　 As the team members admired the surrounding scenery, Jiang Baimian drove the car quietly.

　　 After leaving the company's actual control area, she suddenly turned the steering wheel and changed the route.

　　 "Group leader, did you go wrong?" Long Yuehong glanced at the sun and determined the next direction.

　　 "No." Jiang Baimian responded with a smile.

　　 Long Yuehong doubted:

　　 "But, this is different from the mission plan."

　　 Jiang Baimian curled up his mouth and smiled triumphantly:

　　 "That was a lie to the deputy minister."

　　 "Why?" Long Yuehong became more puzzled.

　　 Jiang Baimian looked through the rearview mirror and glanced at Shang Jian Yao:

"There must be other members of the'Life Sacrifice' cult on the dust. After all, they came in from outside. I am worried that the cultists lurking inside the company will secretly get our mission plan and find a way to notify the companions on the surface. Let them set an ambush to stop us.

　　 "So, from the beginning, I didn't intend to follow the route in the mission plan. Haha, I asked you to be more realistic."

　　 Bai Chen in the co-driver's position heard thoughtfully:

　　 "Team leader, in fact, you are still worried that there are members of the "Life Sacrifice" cult at the top. This mission is a trap?"

　　 Jiang Baimian smiled:

　　 "Be prepared for no trouble, more wins than less."

　　 Long Yuehong unconsciously began to look at the back of the group leader with admiration eyes, Shang Jian Yao hummed the song, seemingly not caring.

　　 Under the bright sun, Jeep turned another corner and continued to run through the wilderness.

　　…………

　　 "Pangu Creature", in an unmanned room.

　　 Yue Qifan, who has the ability of "fragment memory erasure", wore a peaked cap and tiptoedly opened the door and walked in.

　　 There is no light here, but it is not dark, because there are small LCD screens on the surrounding wall. They are connected together to show the conditions of different areas on different floors.

　　 As the light changed, Yue Qifan lowered his head and shouted at the machine occupying at least one third of the space here~www.ltnovel.com~

　　 "Holy Master."

　　The emotionless electronic synthesis sound rang through the horn:

　　 "You tell members who haven't been exposed, don't do anything for these three months."

　　 "Yes, Saint Master." Yue Qifan replied without hesitation.

　　 Then he raised his head.

　　 Suddenly, he saw the incalculable LCD screen jumping on the surrounding walls, showing himself.

Someone was wearing a peaked cap and was in contact with Xiong Ming; some who took the elevator to the 495th floor; some who confronted Shang Jianyao; some who hummed songs and pretended to be normal; some who fled in a hurry; some who sneaked in Somewhere, he who called...

　　 Yue Qifan's pupils suddenly enlarged, and the whole person was so tight as to explode, and he forgot to refute a few words.

　　 A few seconds later, many more business opinions appeared on those LCD screens:

　　 Some of them are experimenting with abilities, some are making faces at the camera, some are shining upward with a flashlight, some are chatting with Xiong Ming in the corner, some are using indecent gestures, some are walking upside down in the corridor...

　　 "Holy Master..." Yue Qifan yelled with a numb scalp.

　　 The cold voice without emotion sounded again, echoing throughout the room:

　　 "I said, I am always watching you."
