The Mechanic

Ganon! Calm down. James stood up while leaning on the wall, and put his hand on Ganon's wrist, You said Adam betrayed, what's going on?

So Ganon recounted the situation when Adam suddenly appeared outside and told everything. The more James heard it, the more frightened he became. He looked at Zhang Xun for a while, Really?

Zhang Xun didn't speak.

But...what's wrong... James shook his head inexplicably, If he even planned the séance plan, then it would be easy for him to destroy Paradise Lost. Why waste such a big chapter?

Adam doesn't hate men. Zhang Xun finally said, He's just been faithfully carrying out his original goal.

Listen, listen! I knew this fucking mechanic had been brainwashed long ago! They shouldn't have let him tame Adam, look at how cowardly he is!

Ganon's words full of contempt and anger fell into Zhang Xun's ears, and it seemed that they did not stir up any waves, but in fact it made things worse in Zhang Xun's heart.

He wanted to believe Adam, but what if that was the truth?

He never knew it took so much effort to believe. He had to press the necklace on his chest with his hand to regain some strength.

At this time, James made a distinct sound of gasping for air, and the place where he had been kicked in the abdomen when he stood up just now was in pain again. Zhang Xun hurriedly supported him, took off his coat and put it on the ground, and helped James to sit back. James suddenly grabbed Zhang Xun's arm tightly, and whispered in a low voice, Axun, didn't you say that you installed a standby program for Adam? Is there a reason why you didn't use it?

Zhang Xun glanced at James, and without answering, James vaguely understood what was going on.

After being locked up in the cell for an unknown amount of time, a groove on the iron door in the middle opened, and someone pushed three plates of food in. But because they were worried about some strange drugs being added to the food, none of the three of them touched the food. Later, I was hungry, my mouth was dry and thirsty, and my mind became dizzy because of exhaustion. When Zhang Xun leaned against the wall and gradually slipped into an uneasy and secure dream, the closed cell door was suddenly opened.

In a daze, Zhang Xun felt two pairs of tyrannical hands pull him up. He was forcibly stripped from the dream, and he couldn't figure out the situation for a while, only to hear James shouting angrily, What are you doing! Let him go! Something is coming at me!

Immediately afterwards, there was a muffled groan, and a strong Feather Snake City soldier kicked James down. The right arm of another soldier instantly transformed into a huge laser gun, pointing in the direction of Cannon and James.

Be honest! Do you think you haven't been beaten enough? the soldier threatened.

When Zhang Xun was dragged out of the cell, he only had time to turn around and shout to James, It's okay!

He was escorted by several soldiers and passed several other similar cells. The small windows on the iron door were all closed, but He Yuxin and Jabari were probably locked in a few of these cells. Although it is a temporary base with exposed steel everywhere, the entire corridor is clean and bright, without any blind spots or redundant things, obviously carefully designed.

Where are you taking me? Zhang Xun asked.

No one answered him.

He was brought into the elevator, and then entered the vast underground space he had seen before, but this time he was on a suspended ladder built in midair with steel bars and iron plates. Zhang Xun noticed that the mechas and those strangely shaped aircraft were still sleeping on several runways, but the number of staff was much smaller.

He was ushered into a brightly lit room full of screens and consoles, roughly the command room here. The soldiers forced him to sit on a chair, handcuffed his hands and feet, stepped back a few steps, and stood aside.

Not long after, several people entered the room. Zhang Xun saw Adam walking in the middle at a glance.

At this time, Adam had already changed from the battle uniform of Paradise Lost, and put on a neat white feather serpent city officer uniform. His gait is calm and perfect, and his eyes are indifferent with a half-smile, as if he has never known Zhang Xun.

The one who walked in the front was General Muruk, and there were three other people, two of whom were probably also the generals of Feather Serpent City who participated in this secret operation, and a man who looked a bit like a mechanic.

These people sat down on a few chairs opposite Zhang Xun, looking over with their eyes. Zhang Xun immediately felt as if he was some kind of commodity for sale.

You are Zhang Xun, the final executor of the Shenshen Project. The man in a white coat who looked like a mechanic said, Very admirable design and courage. You are the first person in the world to achieve the combination of man and machine. Someone who achieves this level of integration.

Zhang Xun was stunned, he was ready to be tortured, why did he suddenly start to praise him?

Zhang Xun, who was inadvertently used to being praised by strangers, replied with a little embarrassment, Uh...thank you?

Adam looked at him with a smile, even a little proud.

Muruk opened his mouth and said, I heard that you didn't receive the attention you deserved in Paradise Lost, and some people have even been trying to sabotage your séance plan?

Zhang Xun glanced at Adam and said, It's not sabotage. It's just daily supervision.
