Embers Ad Infinitum

Vol 2 Chapter 2: Feast

   Jiang Baimian started from Shuiwei Town in accordance with the pre-planned rhetoric, picking up the key points all the way to returning to the Redstone Collection.

Here, she concealed the two things of "establishing" the Weed City branch of the Shang Jian Yao Brotherhood and the "abduction" intelligent robot Genava. At the same time, in dealing with Di Marco, she described the Vigilant Sect as the dominant party. The "old-tone group" is for remuneration and a little bit of justice. The mercenaries who join this ranks seem not dangerous anyway, and the sky is falling with a tall man.

   In fact, there is nothing wrong with this. Just as Vierle said, behind the coincidence, fate is always rushing.

   Xiyu first picked up the azure ceramic teacup, took a sip, then shook his head with a smile, and said with emotion:

  "This time you went out, the things you encountered were more dangerous than others who performed ten or twenty missions. It was unbelievable.

   "It was the same last time, I sent a filter chip, and a lot of things happened."

   By the time she was talking, Shang Jianyao had already set his sights on Long Yuehong, Jiang Baimian forcibly held back, did not do so, Bai Chen looked calm, as if the "doom-ridden" was not the "old tune group".

   In front of the vice minister, Long Yuehong was not easy to refute, so she could only sit downright, pretending not to feel Shang Jianyao's gaze.

   "What's wrong?" After Xiyu finished speaking, he asked about some abnormalities in front of him.

   Jiang Baimian explained with a smile:

"Because we ourselves feel that we have encountered too many dangers, so we wonder if any of the team members has had bad luck recently. Anyway, you guess I guess, you say me and I say you, habitually take this Come to adjust your mood."

   Xiyu laughed:

   "It's okay to make a joke, but don't take it seriously, superstition is a very bad thing."

   I also believed in science...At this moment, Long Yuehong seemed to hear the voice of Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao and Bai Chen.

   Xiyu took another sip of tea, and then asked:

  "Did you watch the battle between the Vigilant sect and DiMarco in the process of dealing with the'Ark below the Earth'?"

   "No." Jiang Baimian shook his head without hesitation.

   "No." Shang Jian Yao agreed very sincerely.

  Bai Chen and Long Yuehong also gave similar answers in body language.

   This is definitely not lying.

   The vigilant sect did not fight DiMarco at all, and of course they couldn't watch it.

   Xiyu nodded gently:

   "It's a pity, otherwise you can get a lot of important information, about the awakened, about the'corridor of the soul'."

   She immediately suppressed the gentle smile that often hangs on her face, and said sternly:

   "Next, you are going to Primordial City, where there are dragons and tigers hidden. I don't know how many awakened people at the level of the'corridor of soul' exist.

"Compared with fierce firepower, a large number of troops, and all kinds of advanced equipment, these people are more dangerous and terrifying. This is not to say that they can block missiles with their bodies, but that in a crowded city, their ability and their The coverage is enough to make any unguarded person die unknowingly.

   "Fortunately, you have experience against that ‘higher unintentional person’, so you don’t know anything."

   Jiang Baimian took the opportunity to say:

   "Minister, I was just about to mention this.

"I don’t know if we can apply for all the information that the company has collected in the field of the Awakened? It’s best to have the age and field corresponding to different abilities, as well as the approximate price range. In this way, we will encounter people with different beliefs. It can effectively prevent it while being a believer.

   "This can't always wait for the encounter, and then ask the company by telegram. Not every time nothing happens, so we can return to the residence calmly and take out the transceiver."

   After listening to silence, Xiyu nodded slightly and said:

   "Your worries do make sense, I will try to apply for you.

   "Actually, after you have investigated to this level, you are also qualified to obtain more information."

   At this point, she laughed:

   "Although you have encountered a lot of things, you have gained a lot. Just knowing the nine research institutes and figuring out the original identity of the first citizen of the'First City' is a great contribution.

  "When the review is completed, your staff level will definitely be upgraded, and the corresponding authority will also increase.

"But, don’t be too superstitious about the information provided by the company. It is not so perfect, and there may be errors. Besides, there is no necessary connection between who you believe in and what ability you have awakened. It can only be said in the corresponding field. The probability is higher, but there are many special cases, which absolutely cannot be generalized."

   Once the judgment on the nature of the enemy's ability is wrong, it will really be fatal.

   This point, Jiang Baimian and others have also experienced:

   Shang Jianyao was once wiped out by a certain awakened person of the "Life Sacrifice" cult. This obviously belongs to the ability of the "last man" domain, but the other party believes in "the life".

   At this time, seeing that the vice minister was about to ask a new question, Long Yuehong plucked up the courage and asked quickly:

   "Minister, I have a question:

   "We all, uh, most of us have done genetic modification. Will the city be very conspicuous in the first place, and it is easy to make people suspect that we are from Pangu?"

   While the reputation of my company does not seem to be very good on the dust, the "First City" is the closest major power, and there is bound to be fierce competition between the two parties.

   Xiyu looked at Long Yuehong, smiled and said:

   "Don't worry, when you arrive at the beginning of the city, you will find that the tall and good-looking people can be seen everywhere, but at least they are not so rare."

   She paused, and explained with a smile:

   "Do you think that the company exports so many genetically modified stocks every year in exchange for materials, who are they dealing with?"

   "That's it..." Long Yuehong pretended to suddenly realize.

When    was idle on the way, he also finished reading the book "The Self-cultivation of an Actor" that Shang Jianyao exchanged.

   Xiyu glanced at the wall clock on the wall, and said carefully:

   "Let’s come here today. You guys will take a break for a while. When you set off, you can decide by yourself and just make a report."

   Her expression became serious again:

"I must remind you that investigating the causes of the destruction of the old world is definitely a dangerous thing. In addition to us, there are many big forces that have also made similar attempts, but after the teams sent to investigate to a certain extent, Either disappeared, died, or became a lunatic, almost without exception.

   "In addition, there are many powerful people hidden in the'First City'. You must be careful this time and keep in touch with the company at any time."

   "Yes, Minister!" Shang Jian Yao replied with full enthusiasm.

   "..." Xi Yu was taken aback, "It doesn't need to be so formal, I just remind you a few words, okay, you can go back now."

   When Jiang Baimian got up, he asked curiously:

   "Minister, what happened before that made us hand in the harvested items as soon as we arrived at the door?

   "I heard Team Liu talk about the general situation, but I don't know what item that guy has concealed."

   Xiyu sighed softly:

   "A voice recorder with propaganda materials of a secret sect."

   "What sect?" Shang Jian Yao was suddenly excited.

   "Natural Sect." Xiyu said simply, "We don't have more information about it for the time being."

   Natural Sect... Jiang Baimian repeated this name in his heart.

   Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bai Chen, whose bones had not healed completely, pressed her lower lip and asked:

   "Minister, after this reward, can I do genetic modification or biological prosthetic limb transplantation?"

   In fact, with the new exoskeleton device, she is not so urgent about it.

   Xiyu looked at Bai Chen and said sternly:

   "If you insist.

   "Well, the premise is that you have fully understood the corresponding risks."

   Bai Chen nodded, and said nothing more.

   Shang Jian Yao and others said goodbye to the vice minister and returned to Room 14 on the 647th floor.

   It was just five thirty at this time, a while before the cafeteria opened. Jiang Baimian threw himself into the chair behind the desk, stretched out his body, and said with emotion:

   "I'm still comfortable at home..."

   Before she finished her words, she saw Shang Jian Yao walking to the couch and lying down directly.

   "Hey, hold back!" Jiang Baimian found himself still not free and easy.

   "I'm still comfortable at home." Shang Jian Yao repeated her words.

   Long Yuehong sat on the single sofa next to him, and Bai Chen returned to his seat.

   "I will invite you to have a big meal later!" Jiang Baimian was too lazy to move anymore and decided to let go of Shang Jian Yao.

   The adults don’t remember the villains!

  The four of them took up a position each, and they chatted in extremely relaxed mind and body.

   chatting, the voice in the room gradually disappeared.

   I don't know how long it took, Jiang Baimian suddenly opened his eyes.

   She was awakened by the protest from her stomach.

   "Why fell asleep... what time is it?" Jiang Baimian muttered silently, turning his wrist to look at the electronic watch.

   The above shows that it is now 8:05 in the evening.

   This means that all cafeterias are closed!

   Jiang Baimian opened his mouth, stood up, and patted the table twice:

   "Wake up, wake up!"

   Long Yuehong and Bai Chen woke up in a daze.

   "Is the cafeteria open?" Shang Jian Yao entered a very mental state as soon as he was sober.

   "The door is closed!" Jiang Baimian said grimly, "Why did you sleep until this time?"

   She is mainly angry with herself. UU Reading www.uukanshu.cOM

   Bai Chen glanced at his watch and said relatively calmly:

   "The main reason is to relax."

  Out of the company, even if they are on duty, they don’t sleep well enough, and the string is always tense in their minds.

   The short-term is fine. After these few months, even the "chosen ones" have accumulated a lot of fatigue.

   "Indeed." Jiang Baimian thought for a while, showing a smile, "You wait, I'll get some food back."

   "Need help?" Shang Jianyao asked with piercing eyes.

   Jiang Baimian took a sip:

   "What do you think? I'll go home and see what ingredients are there."

   About fifteen minutes later, Jiang Baimian returned to Room 14 on the 647th floor, holding noodles, cabbage, tomatoes, eggs, several cans of meat and an induction cooker in his arms.

   She put the things away, looked around, smiled brightly and said:

   "We cook our own feast!"

   "Good! Shang Jian Yao has rushed over.

   Long Yuehong and Bai Chen looked at each other, and they both saw the smile on each other's faces.

   He thinks this is quite interesting.
