Night of apocalypse

Long Er picked up a bottle of white wine, poured it into a glass with a big ice ball, then handed the wine to Shen Qiu and asked with a smile.

Tell me, what do you want from me?

I really can't hide anything from you.

Shen Qiu took the wine glass and took a sip and responded with a smile.

How can I not know your virtues? Do you usually call me when you have nothing to do? Not to mention you want to see me.

Long Er replied with a smile.

Seeing this, Shen Qiu stopped hiding it and immediately took out the necklace from his pocket and placed it on the table.

Is this what you are looking for?

Becklen gave it to you.

Long Er looked at the necklace and couldn't help but narrowed his eyes and said.

Did you guess it? Then why didn't you ask him for it then?

Shen Qiu asked quite unexpectedly.

He was the one who killed the monster at the time, but he couldn't find it later. The problem most likely lies with Bekelen. But he is your teammate, and he killed the monster, so naturally I can't question him. , and isn’t this coming back again?”

Long Er replied with a smile.

Shen Qiu suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and he said to Long Er.

It's really all under your control.

Haha, so-so.

Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. Let me tell you the real thing now. I have found someone to crack this mechanical box and found out a shocking secret from it.

What discovery?

Long Er put away the smile on his face and asked seriously.

Shen Qiu immediately raised his bracelet, showed the most critical image to Long Er, sent him the processed still photo, and then said seriously.

This necklace is a surveillance device. It was given to Paxon by this dim figure, but it didn't expect that it would be photographed. Judging from the analyzed photos, the other person is either wearing an atomic magic suit, or is a person from a higher civilization or Robots. I now suspect that everything we have experienced and the destruction of civilizations in other worlds are inseparable from them.

After listening to Shen Qiu's words, Long Er fell into silence.

He picked up the bottle, poured a glass of strong wine and drank it in one gulp. After thinking for a moment, he finally spoke to Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu, actually I shouldn't tell you what's next. But I thought about it and decided to tell you. But after you listen, don't mention it to others.

Well, you say.

Actually, the Red Alliance has long been aware of various anomalies. At the same time, it has been searching in various overlapping worlds and has more or less discovered various abnormal clues. But having said that, the clues you are providing now are major discoveries, but It’s essentially the same.”

Long Er said solemnly.

So have you figured it out?

It's not so easy to find out the truth behind all this, but now we have deduced many guesses based on various evidences. The most likely one is that there are advanced civilizations manipulating everything behind the scenes. There is a high probability that we are them The guinea pig in our hands, the other party is using us for experiments.

I feel the same way.

If this is really the case, we will not sit still and wait for death. It would be very stupid to expect the other party to be merciful and let us go. Even if it means hitting an egg against a stone, we will have to fight hard.

Long Er said to Shen Qiu.

Um.

Shen Qiu nodded heavily and replied.

In addition, based on this, we have another guess.

What guess?

We now suspect that there may be something wrong with this advanced civilization that operates everything behind the scenes. It is either destroyed or out of control for some reason.

If that's the case, is that a good thing or a bad thing for us?

It's both a good thing and a bad thing. First of all, whether such an advanced civilization is destroyed or out of control, it may have a devastating impact on us. Of course, crises are often accompanied by opportunities. If the other party has a problem, we will have a chance. It may be able to erode the opponent's technology and civilization, and even replace it!

Long Er said to Shen Qiu.

Then what are you waiting for? Take the time to find each other!

You think we don't want to. The problem is that we can't find the other party. We now suspect that the other party's civilization may be disguised as a civilization that looks ordinary on the surface, but in fact its technology is super advanced.

If that's the case, it would be very difficult to find. After all, there are so many overlapping worlds.

Yeah, now it's not just us, the Blue Alliance and the Gray Alliance are also desperately looking for it.

Hey, I can only say that we should do our best. By the way, have you discovered one thing? It seems that the collapse of many civilizations is inseparable from MX and the immortality experiment. This may be a breakthrough.

Shen Qiu sighed and said.

It's possible, forget it, let's not talk about such a heavy topic.

When Long Er heard Shen Qiu's words, his eyelids jumped and he spoke.

Every time he talked about these things, Long Er felt like there was a heavy weight on his body, and his spine was almost broken.

Of course, this was not the real reason why Long Er did not continue chatting with Shen Qiu. But he had a shocking secret that he didn't dare to tell Shen Qiu.

Okay, by the way, what are you doing in District 8?

Shen Qiu then chatted with Long Er.

Long Er shook his head and said to Shen Qiu.

What else can we do? The situation in District 8 is extremely bad now, and a strange wave is about to hit, so go over and see how to solve it.

Don't you have troops? Just send troops there.

Shen Qiu said to Long Er with a smile.

Long Er then rolled his eyes at Shen Qiu and said.

I also want to send troops there, but the question is what to do with the territory in another world? Don't we want it anymore?

Ahem, it seems so, what should we do now?

What else can we do? It's just that we have to use as much strength as we can! It's not that we don't want to protect this side with all our strength, but we have to take care of both sides. Let me just make a simple comparison. Think about it, you are now How much stronger is it than before? If we encountered this kind of thing before, do you think you have the ability to resist?

I am much stronger now than before. At least I have the ability to resist.

Shen Qiu thought for a moment and said.

That's right. If we don't open up another world, our strength will not improve at all, and we will be waiting to die! Of course, the world here cannot be lost. After all, 80% of people cannot enter the overlapping world. .

Long Er said with a headache.

After listening to Long Er's words, Shen Qiu's head also felt a headache, and he spoke quickly.

Stop talking about this. My head hurts just listening to it. I'd better leave such a big thing to you.

Haha, you kid! Oh~ By the way, how are you doing lately?

Long Er asked with a smile.

Okay.

If you are too busy, you can consider taking on some tasks.

No interest, I'm almost exhausted.

Shen Qiu waved his hand and said.

Don't be so talkative. Let me tell you, the Destiny Workers have recently updated a lot of S-level missions, and the rewards are super rich. Are you interested in giving them a try?

Long Er suddenly suggested to Shen Qiu very enthusiastically.

When Shen Qiu heard Long Er's words, she almost jumped up and immediately said with a dark face.

S-level mission? Do you think my life is too satisfying?

You must know that the difficulty of A-level missions is extremely high, and you will die if you are not careful, let alone S-level missions.

Don't say that, how could I harm you! You have to consider one thing. You are so strong now, and every step forward will require massive resources. And if you are unwilling to be promoted, then there must be no public resources. You can use it, but you have to rely on yourself. If you don’t make money now, when will you make it! And no one will snatch it from you, how great!”

Long Er picked up the wine bottle with a smile and poured Shen Qiu a glass.

Thank you!

Shen Qiu thanked Long Er, but he raised his bracelet and opened the Tianming Worker APP. He was also curious about what S-level missions had been updated.

As a result, when he opened the task section of the APP.

Huh~

S-level missions came into his eyes one after another. There were so many of them that he was stunned. Shen Qiu was stunned.

S-level wanted mission: Defeat Gamaka, the deputy leader of the defeated army church, and you will be rewarded with a mysterious gift package. The requirements for receiving the mission: level 4 badge.

S-level wanted mission: Defeat Antonio, the deputy leader of the defeated army church, and you will be rewarded with a mysterious gift package. The requirements for receiving the mission: level 4 badge.

S-level wanted mission: Defeat Sima Di, the deputy leader of the defeated army church, and reward a mysterious gift package. The requirements for receiving the mission: level 4 badge.

S-level wanted mission: Kill Jian Xingang and get a mysterious gift package as a reward.

S-level mission: The lost object was taken back by Warhammer Heavy Industries.

S-Class Infiltration Mission·Double-Face

Why are there so many S-level missions? Especially the wanted list. When did the world have so many masters?

Shen Qiu was shocked when he saw so many S-level missions. There were really all kinds of S-level missions here. There are infiltration tasks, treasure hunting tasks, and other tasks. Especially the wanted missions, the series of names listed on them made his scalp numb.

Long Er took a sip of wine and said lightly.

What's all the fuss about? Think about it, it's normal for one elite to emerge out of a thousand people, right?

normal!

Is it normal for one genius to emerge out of 100,000 people?

normal!

One genius can be found among one million people, and one evildoer can be found among ten million people. How many people are there in the whole world! Think about it? Just because you are lucky, it does not mean that others are unlucky. Maybe there are others, As soon as I entered another world, I picked up a weapon with a diamond atomic module embedded in it and took off directly on the spot. You didn't pay attention to this aspect, so it's normal for you not to understand.

After what you said, it seems to be true. So how do you deal with these guys?

Shen Qiu asked with a headache.

To deal with a monster-like enemy, of course you have to send someone even more monster, like you!

Long Er said with a smile.

Stop, aren't you trying to get me into this again? I asked why the KPI department was suddenly so kind. I didn't even apply for a Level 4 badge, so they gave it to me for free.

Shen Qiu said with twitching corners of his mouth.

It's not impossible, the manpower is really insufficient! You also know that although there are many top experts in the Red League, those who can do these tasks are very busy and can't spare the time. Those who have time but don't have the strength to do it, this is not just You are both capable and free. Hey! It’s such a pity that there is so much fat hanging on it, and no one has come to pick it up for a long time!”

Long Er said with a sigh.

Come on, I'm too tired recently. If I don't accept the task, even the donkeys in the production team won't dare to do it.

Shen Qiu glanced at these tasks and said with a wry smile, basically none of these tasks were easy to complete. Whenever you take on any task, you have to be mentally prepared to be half disabled.

All right.

Seeing that Shen Qiu had already said this, Long Er didn't want to go too far.

Hey, I remember, wasn't this Jian Xingang an A-level mission before? Why has it become an S-level mission now? What's going on?

Of course something happened in the middle, but it's confidential and can only be told to the person who took over the task. What do you think, do you want to listen?

Listen to me, you're trying to trick me again.

Shen Qiu smiled and cursed.

Hey, you are really getting harder and harder to fool. Why don't you come with me to District 8?

Long Er said regretfully.

Forget it, I really don't have the energy. My team has also had problems recently and I'm having a headache.

Shen Qiu pondered for a while, then shook his head and said.

Okay, then I won't advise you.

By the way, Long Er, can you help me with something?

Shen Qiu said with a smile.

Why are you so polite all of a sudden? If you have something to say, just tell me.

Then you're welcome. Can you get thunder gene modules there? Get some for me.

Shen Qiu looked at Long Er expectantly.

Long Er said dumbfounded when he heard Shen Qiu's words.

You have the nerve to ask me for the lightning gene module. What did you do? You don't know?

Ah? What's the matter?

You cut off all the thunder gene modules that the military department opened up. Now the entire Red Alliance's thunder gene modules have long been empty. Those thunder gene awakeners are screaming there one by one.

hehe.

After hearing this, Shen Qiu smiled awkwardly.

Okay, I won't scold you anymore. I really don't have thunder gene modules here. And the entire Red Alliance will be gone in a short time. Even if there is, there won't be much, but I know where to get it.

Long Er suddenly changed the subject and said.

Shen Qiu's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.

where?

Blue Alliance and Gray Alliance, the lightning gene modules on those two sides are normal.

Long Er said with a smile.

After hearing this, Shen Qiu said helplessly.

Cross-border transactions are terrible. Their thunder gene modules must be controlled by major forces. Unfortunately, my relationship with them is also very tense.

Then there's no way.

Long Er shook his head and sighed.

I'll think of another way. Okay, it's getting late, I'm leaving!

Shen Qiu then finished the wine in the glass and stood up, saying goodbye to Long Er.

Walk slowly.

Long Er picked up the wine glass and gestured to Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu waved his hand, turned and left.

Long Er looked at Shen Qiu's leaving figure and fell into deep thought. At this moment, Long Yan slowly walked out of the bar.

Are you done talking?

Well, I originally thought you would meet Shen Qiu.

Long Er picked up a new wine glass, filled it, and handed it to Long Yan.

Long Yan took the wine glass and said lightly.

If I come out, this kid will only be very reserved, so let's forget it. It can be seen that he gets along well with you.

Haha, that's right, I liked this kid very much when I first saw him, but...

But what?

But Shen Qiu is so outstanding, I'm a little worried that one day he will make the same mistake as us.

There was a hint of worry in Long Er's eyes.

Long Yan shook his head slightly and said.

Chen Qiu won't, his ambition is not there. He has no interest in those and will not repeat our old path.

Long Er poured himself a glass, drank it in one gulp and said.

Okay, even if Shen Qiu doesn't know it, he won't fight! What about Long Xiu, what will he do if he knows about Shen Qiu's existence?

After Long Yan heard what Long Er said, he thought for a few seconds and then said.

I still understand that kid Long Xiu, and he doesn't know how to do it either.

Okay, even if Long Xiu doesn't know how to do it, what about Long Xiu's mother? What would happen if she knew all this? You should know better than me, who is she? You must know that you were able to rise to power in the first place because of her push. A handful.

Long Er's eyes suddenly became stern.

After Long Yan heard what Long Er said, he fell silent.

Long Er did not urge Long Yan, but just drank quietly. After a long time, Long Yan spoke.

I will handle this matter, and if we don't tell it, no one will know.

I hope so. Brother, let me ask you something.

go ahead.

Have you ever thought for a moment about recognizing Shen Qiu back?

Long Er stared into Long Yan's eyes.

Long Yan silently drank the wine in the glass, and then said to Long Er.

Actually, the current situation is the best for Shen Qiu. He is living a happy life and there is no need to admit it. Not everyone pursues power and status. Some people yearn for freedom and a broad world! I I am proud of him, and as for what I owe him, I will find opportunities to make up for what I owe him.

It's okay not to admit it!

Long Er said with great emotion.

The next day.

Shen Qiu was leaning on the sofa, holding the remote control and watching TV.

All channels on the TV broadcast news about District 8.

I saw a female reporter with her hair tied up and her face red from the cold, holding a microphone and interviewing the driver of a heavy truck parked on the roadside.

Sir, what do you call me? Can you spare a few minutes to be interviewed by me? I am Chen Yan, a reporter from Times Daily.

Chen Yan stepped forward to interview and asked.

The uncle who was eating instant noodles at this time put down the instant noodles and replied slightly nervously.

Okay, my name is Cheng Zhuang, from Brilliant City.

Mr. Cheng Zhuang, are you going to the Eighth District to provide support?

Yes.

Do you know that District 8 is in danger now? What makes you desperate to support us?

Although I am not a combatant, that is, an ordinary person, I understand that it is impossible to rely on the Red Alliance for everything. We are also a part of the Red Alliance, and I will use my actual actions to help as much as possible.

I'm so touched. On behalf of the people of District 8, I deeply thank you.

Chen Yan then bowed to Cheng Zhuang.

In the scene played at this time, only a male reporter was seen interviewing a team carrying a combat backpack and holding a firearm.

Gentlemen, which army are you from?

The leading man said cheerfully.

We are not from any military force, we are from Chongqing Security Company, and we usually specialize in escorting people's goods.

Oh, this is what you are doing?

Of course we are going to the Eighth District to provide support. Although we are not top experts, we can help more or less and contain some garbage monsters.

Can I ask how many individual teams like you are here to support?

Many, very many!

Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart.

Then the picture changed again, and a familiar face appeared.

I saw Wu Yong from Justice Daily interviewing an elite combatant wearing a KPI uniform. He asked questions very excitedly and passionately.

Sir, can you tell us what made you go to District 8 to support us at all costs?

The man in front of me said in a deep voice.

Belief.

Can you tell me more specifically?

I'm not afraid of making you laugh. The reason why so many people spontaneously support District 8 this time is more for their faith. Maybe in the peaceful and prosperous times, everyone was chasing money and fame. But it's different now. Natural disasters and The doomsday keeps coming, and we have experienced too much despair. The fourth and fifth cities have fallen! This time it is the eighth city's turn, but we will not watch helplessly this time, we will also try our best Everything, save the 8th District. Even if it means sacrifice, we will not hesitate! We are no longer the ones we were when the night of the apocalypse came. We will no longer be afraid. Even death cannot make us retreat, and we don’t know Is it because I’m used to numbness, or is death also a kind of relief?”

The KPI person said with emotion.

Wu Yong said deeply to the KPI personnel in front of him.

You are true warriors and we are proud of you.

At this time, the news switched to the administrative press conference of Sinking Star City.

I saw General Kong Le speaking in person, and he announced impassionedly.

The Red League has taken note of the support from various regions of the Red League to the Eighth District. We are proud of all people with lofty ideals! The behavior of everyone this time fully reflects the concept of our Red League. When one side is in trouble, all sides support it! Red League The League will never disappoint all those with lofty ideals, so I officially announce on behalf of the Red League that the Red League will issue a large number of support tasks and give all supporters massive points and rewards.

Shen Qiu looked at the images played on the TV and couldn't calm down for a long time.

Originally, when Long Er mentioned District 8 to him, he didn't feel much about it, but when he got home and turned on the TV, he saw the overwhelming reports.

He felt that the fire in his heart was ignited again.

Due to the fall of the Fourth and Fifth Administrative Districts, everyone felt an unprecedented crisis at this moment.

No one wants to see the Eighth Administrative District also fall.

Therefore, everyone spontaneously went to support the Eighth District. At this moment, it can be said that the entire Red Alliance was moved.

It was not just the troops and KPIs of the Red Alliance who came to support, but also numerous individuals, mercenaries, and security companies.

It is said that there are many people who came back from the overlapping world.

Shen Qiu took a deep breath, then stood up and said to Chen Ye and the others.

I've decided, let's go to District 8 as well.

Boss, you also want to support me. I'm really touched. Boss, you are indeed the most amazing.

Chen Ye was also deeply moved when he heard Shen Qiu's words. In fact, seeing the overwhelming publicity, he also wanted to help.

Ahem, don't say that! In fact, going to support is one thing, and the other thing is to do some tasks to earn points. Isn't this too poor?

Shen Qiu coughed and said with a smile.

ps: Sorry, it's a bit urgent, I will resume the fifth update tomorrow (*^▽^*).
