Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 26: "Make up class"

   A corpse was thrown high and far, and fell into the swamp ahead, splashing countless mud spots.

   It is embedded in the dark and soft surface, sinking inch by inch.

   There are two similar scenes beside it, but they are buried deeper in the mud.

   Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong stared for a few seconds, then retracted their gazes, turned and walked towards the jeep position.

   Jiang Baimian didn't ask who came to ride the heavy motorcycle first, so he put on the corresponding helmet and sat on it straddle.

  , carrying a miniature submachine gun, she turned her head to look at Shang Jian Yao and others, and said with a smile:

   "I wanted to get one a long time ago, but I never had a chance."

   Before she finished her words, she was already twisting the throttle, causing the heavy motorcycle to make a low and violent roar.

   Jiang Baimian fell down. Although it was the first time he rode, his style was quite professional.

   The roar became louder and louder, and the heavy motorcycle arrow generally rushed out, along the edge of the swamp, towards the distance.

   "The romance of steel and fuel..." Long Yuehong whispered enviously, "There is freedom and wind."

In the sound of    boom, the heavy motorcycle turned back and stopped not far away.

   Jiang Baimian supported the ground with his feet, pulled up the mask of the helmet, and laughed dryly:

   "This, that, Bai Chen, where should I go?"

   Bai Chen looked down at his scarf, and responded loudly:

   "You follow the jeep."

   "Ah? What are you talking about?" Jiang Baimian raised his hand and touched his ear, but it was blocked by the helmet.

   She did not change her smile, pulled the mask again, and rode the heavy motorcycle back to the jeep, as if she had made a decision.

   Shang Jian Yao and Long Yuehong got on the car one after another, Bai Chen sat back in the driving position and started the Jeep.

   Just like that, they traveled in the black marsh wilderness at a relatively low speed, changing directions from time to time, drilling around.

   In this process, Jiang Baimian repeatedly used the excuse of scouting the surroundings, riding that motorcycle, leaving the team, and speeding to different places.

   Nearly two hours later, Bai Chenrang, who seemed a little overwhelmed, stopped.

   She pushed the car door, and said to Jiang Baimian who had just whizzed back from afar:

   "Team leader, it's almost there."

   Jiang Baimian supported the ground on one foot and pulled up the mask and said:

"Do you have any idea?"

   Bai Chen touched the rough skin on his face:

   "I am worried that if we pass this way, the wilderness wanderers in the settlement will have an overreaction, and they are always very vigilant in this regard.

   "Why don't you wait here, I ride a motorcycle, make contact, and then come back to lead you through? If they don't let us in, then I will try to trade outside."

   Jiang Baimian nodded gently:

   "Our firepower is really daunting."

   The black bog iron snake skin tied to the top of the jeep is even more daunting.

   She immediately got off the car, parked the motorcycle, took off the helmet, and handed it to Bai Chen.

   After watching Bai Chen's back disappear into the sparse woodland ahead, Jiang Baimian opened the door of the jeep and sat in the driving position.

   "Would you like one?" She smiled and picked up the simple cigarette in the armrest box.

   This is the trophy obtained before.

   The brown and black tobacco leaves exude an unspeakable fragrance.

   "No need." Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao shook their heads at the same time.

"You two, this is a luxury!" Jiang Baimian put down the simple cigarette, "I don't know how many people who have been on the battlefield are crazy about it. This can relax their spirits and not overwhelm themselves. Just as alcoholic beverages can make people forget many unpleasant things that don’t want to recall, hey, many people only become happy when they are drunk."

   "That's not real happiness." Shang Jianyao suddenly sang. (Note 1)

   "Oh, I'm still singing." Jiang Baimian opened his mouth slightly, laughing and cursing.

   Shang Jian Yao nodded seriously:

"I like music."

   "But the lyrics don't seem to be too right..." Jiang Baimian rubbed the metal device in his ear.

   Shang Jian Yao said as if discussing an academic issue:

   "The lyrics can be modified to fit the current scene, which helps to express better."

   "..." Jiang Baimian waved his hand, "This is not the point. Being interrupted by you like this, I almost forgot what I was going to say!"

   She sighed out of breath:

   "I mentioned cigarettes to bring up the topic of war trauma.

"Although the battle you have just experienced is not up to this level, it is necessary to pay attention. Whether it is cigarettes, alcohol, or even controlled drugs, it is actually not a good way to deal with it, and it is easy to cause serious dependence. And it’s bad for the body.

   "If you are too tense, stressed, anxious, irritable, and have difficulty concentrating, you can talk to me at any time. I have learned some psychological courses."

   "Yes, team leader!" Long Yuehong replied loudly, "Just now, on the way, Bai Chen actually talked to us about this matter, I feel much better now."

   "Not bad." Jiang Baimian praised, "Since the approval of the establishment of this old tune group, the most correct thing I have done is to pass Bai Chen's application. Hey, my vision is good?"

   Without waiting for Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong to respond, she leaned back in the driver's seat, her eyes slightly turning:

   "Bai Chen doesn't know when he will be back. I am idle and idle. Let me tell you something. I haven't told you before."

   Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong immediately sat upright, as if they were still in school.

   Jiang Baimian laughed low:

   "Don't be so focused! Distracted and pay attention to the outside! Are you afraid that a rocket will fly in and bring us to the pot?

   "Okay, back to the topic. Didn't I say it before? Above the dust, except for a few creatures, the most dangerous enemy of mankind is always human.

   "So, which humans can be called dangerous?

   "Long Yuehong, what do you think?"

   Long Yuehong recalled the next words:

   "A person wearing an exoskeleton device."

   In the previous battle, he was deeply impressed by the role of military exoskeleton devices.

   He even suspected that this would be one of the sources of his nightmare.

"Yes, you can also add people wearing bionic smart armor. These two types of people can deal with a team alone, and even smooth out a small wilderness homeless settlement." Jiang Baimian turned his eyes to Shang. See Yao, "What else do you think?"

   "A team equipped with heavy weapons, a team with outstanding firepower, and someone who has installed a specific type of biological prosthesis or has done corresponding mechanical or electronic modifications." Shang Jianyao said three in one breath.

   Jiang Baimian nodded gently:

   "Really."

   She stroked her left arm with her right hand and said:

   "It has brought me a lot of improvement, but it is still the original one, you should cherish it!"

   she immediately added:

   "There are also monks from the sect of monks and genetic reformers. You may not know that in many forces, people like you are called ‘chosen ones’.”

   "Why?" Long Yuehong asked in amazement.

   Jiang Baimian laughed:

   "You are in contact with too much, and you are also in touch, so you can't realize the preciousness of this technology.

   "Of all the forces, currently only our company and the "White Knights" can steadily make genetic improvements and produce the corresponding stock solution.

"Think about it, a person who is tall, strong, fast, quick response, strong coordination, strong balance, strong immunity, strong self-repair ability, extremely energetic, excellent eyesight, and not low in talent for firearms. For ordinary people, isn’t it like the darling of heaven? Isn’t it synonymous with danger?

   "However, don't rush to be proud. Some forces are extremely repulsive of genetic technology, believing that this is a blasphemy against nature to heaven and gods, and the main reason for the destruction of the old world."

   Jiang Baimian breathed a sigh of relief and continued:

"The people who have been genetically modified are stronger than the genetically modified people. They often have some abilities that humans don’t have. In this regard, those who are distorted by pollution have similar performances. I even see The second person who can complete photosynthesis by himself without eating for three months.

   "However, the genetic modification technology is still very immature, and the failure rate and death rate are quite high. You should not try it lightly."

   Sub-humans are normal human beings, but they were polluted and deformed in the cataclysm of the destruction of the old world.

  Although a large part of them died completely soon after being polluted, some people still survived and passed their aberrations to their offspring.

   These people were discriminated against by normal humans, were expelled from the settlement, and were insultingly called "second people".

   Because of physical changes and similar encounters, people inevitably hate normal humans, and they always have resentments that are difficult to resolve. The two sides gradually developed into mortal enemies.

   Under such circumstances, the term "second person" really spread on the dust and became a "scientific name".

   In the new calendar era, many years after the destruction of the old world, strong pollution still remains in some places, and the distortion has not disappeared from human beings. According to the creation of new sub-humans.

   Of course, most subhumans today are the result of natural reproduction.

   "There is such a second person..." Long Yuehong knows what a second person is, but has never heard of the kind of person Jiang Baimian described.

   Jiang Baimian gave an "Um", glanced at Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong respectively, and said as if nothing had happened:

   "In addition to the ones just mentioned, there is another kind of people that can be called dangerous, even very dangerous."

   "Which kind of person?" Long Yuehong was very curious, and Shang Jianyao was the same.

   Those mentioned before, the two have more or less learned about them in textbooks and training, but no one puts the corresponding content together from the perspective of "dangerous humans".

   Jiang Baimian lowered his head and smiled:

   "The Awakened."

   "Awakened..." Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao whispered and repeated.

   Jiang Baimian raised his head and looked at the two and said:

  "Awakened people refer to human beings who have undergone strange mutations for some reason. They all possess some strange and terrifying abilities.

  " Someone once thought that the ability of some awakened people should be described as funny, but later, it turns out that no matter how funny the ability is, it will become very scary in the correct situation.

"So far, no force has figured out the law of the generation of awakened people~www.ltnovel.com~ All experiments to artificially create awakened people have failed. Therefore, the number of awakened people is very rare, and it is not easy to encounter. I didn't rush to tell you.

   "Ah, yes, this is knowledge that needs to be kept secret."

   Long Yuehong asked worriedly:

   "Team leader, you said that the Awakened is so strong, if you encounter it, how should you deal with it?"

   Shang Jian Yao was silent and did not speak.

   Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

  "Except for a small number of very powerful awakeners, most awakeners have a limited range of abilities, and this range is not large.

   "Based on this, if you encounter them, try to get a distance first and use a gun to solve the problem remotely."

   "So..." Long Yuehong began to imagine the corresponding scene.

   Shang Jian Yao nodded lightly, as if thinking about something.

   Upon seeing this, Jiang Baimian added:

   "Also, don't just pay attention to these dangerous human beings. Our bodies are too fragile. If we are careless, seven or eight-year-old children have the opportunity to kill us."

  …………

   Bai Chen rode a heavy motorcycle. After going around for a while, he went deep into the swamp along a seemingly rotten road.

   Ten minutes later, a small red dot appeared on the road in front of her.

   The red light swaying gently.

   This is a warning.

   Note 1: Quoted from Mayday "You Are Not Really Happy". Originally, I made this book in order to prevent harmony, but sometimes, in order to resonate, I still quote and adapt some realistic poems or lyrics so that everyone can see the corresponding melody and in their minds. Picture. This is necessary for some later scenes.
