Ember Gun

  Chapter 344 Miracle

  Everyone stood still in place like a sculpture. Obviously, the enemy was more difficult than imagined this time. Not only did they come prepared, but they were quick.

"During the battle, the energy supply line was destroyed. In order to restore the energy supply, many people died and Swift was also injured. Arthur was trying to establish contact with the outside world. However, due to the interference of erosion, the signal was interrupted. We are left."

  Kestrel spoke and motioned to Eve to follow. Under this sudden surprise attack, they temporarily transformed the safe house into a fortress against the wandering demons.

"According to Arthur's speculation, the enemy should belong to Lawrence's line. After all, only they have the "Apocalypse" and can make the inferior secret blood that turns people into monsters. What's more, that enemy should be the same as Lawrence. , Has a very strong single-player combat ability...maybe he is also a demon hunter, a demon hunter who defected with Lawrence."

  Kestrel has always been very nervous, but at this moment, he can’t help being very serious, and it is rare to be serious.

  "Only in this way can the enemy sneak into the scientific research area under our defenses, and he should carry inferior secret blood with him, turning the patients in the scientific research area into demons."

"The most troublesome thing is more than this. For this operation, we have done enough defense. Why can this enemy sneak in so easily? If we don't have any rape, he should still have extremely strong strength, possibly no less than Lawrence, only in this way can he hide his whereabouts perfectly, and even say to kill everyone who might see him."

  The enemy is far more complex and powerful than they thought, and the worse part of the Kestrel has not been said yet.

  If all this is really supposed to be, then what is the purpose of that person? And if the enemy is still lingering in the scientific research area, given his ability to do all of this, it is difficult for the current armed forces to fight him, but now he hasn't come to kill the Kestrel and others, so what is he doing? No one can give the answer.

  The gunshots continued, and it was gradually declining.

This is the scientific research area of ​​Heishan Hospital. After all, it is only a medical research institution. It is not like a permanent pump. It has sufficient armed reserves. Most of the workers here are doctors. The weapons currently used are also in the deployment of defenses. , Brought by the soldiers.

  Some of the worse things are clear to everyone, but no one said it.

The Black Mountain Hospital itself does not have a strong enough defense force, but it is protected by antimemetics. Under the long years of operation of the scavengers, endless heavy rain baptizes this city called Jiudun Ling, which is related to the Black Mountain Hospital. Everything is constantly being erased from people’s minds.

It can be said that except for the inside of the organs, people outside are not clear about the location and internal conditions of the Black Mountain Hospital. But this time is different. The enemy clearly understands here and understands the structure here. On the surface it is a feint, but in fact it is straight. Research area.

  Eve was silent. There was no need to say these words to her, but Kestrel still said it, as if something was waiting for her next.

Crossing the temporarily erected position, Eve saw the man sitting in the corner. He looked so tired at the moment, but he still stared at the design drawings closely, trying to find in this complex scientific research area. The slightest chance of survival.

   "Arthur."

   Kestrel yelled softly.

   Arthur slowly raised his head and saw Eve, who was safe and sound, his cold expression relaxed a little, but it soon solidified again.

  Eve’s survival is only temporary. If no other plan is thought of, everyone will die here.

"The energy supply has been restored. The entire area is still under lockdown. We are not sure about the location of the enemy. However, judging from the firefight just now, most of the monsters in the research area should have been attracted and the energy supply has been restored. , The large lifting area can be reused, we can directly reach the ground there, and judging from the distribution of defense forces, there is still an unmanned armor on standby there."

  Kestrel reported the situation. Although everyone is very likely to die here, some people shouldn’t die here, such as Eve, who is of great research value, or...

Looking to one side, in the Kestrel's field of vision, a partition has been prepared not far from here, Ovis sat in a wheelchair and watched all this quietly, while there was a doctor trying Wake up another patient.

  It was a silent child, but judging from the protection of Arthur when he commanded him, he was worth as much as Eve, but Eve’s value Kestrel had been heard, but who was this boy?

  He has never seen this boy, and what is even more bizarre is that he obviously doesn’t know this boy, but every time he sees him, Kestrel has a sense of familiarity, as if he is an old friend.

"We don't know the situation on the ground, but at least it's better than staying here, isn't it?" Kestrel's words were as relaxed as possible, "It's like stepping from a narrow **** into another wide hell...at least the air on the surface. It's a lot fresher, isn't it."

   Arthur seemed to be amused by the Kestrel, smiled and shook his head, and then said.

   "I see, tidy up the equipment...give us some personal time."

Kestrel nodded, he understood Arthur a little now. This was a **** time. It was a time when soldiers and demons fought to death. But now it is staged a scene of father and daughter meeting. If this is a drama, then But it was terrible.

  The father cannot watch his child die, and the child cannot see his father’s powerlessness.

   "Damn monster..."

Kestrel cursed in a low voice, and walked to the place where Ovis was. Kestrel's gaze had been on his body, but he didn't ask anything. When approaching, he passed Ovis directly and came to the stretcher. .

  The doctor is still trying to wake up the patient. When he evacuated, the patient's reaction was the most violent. Therefore, the doctor injected a lot of medicine and he was drowsy.

   "Thank you, please."

  Although his mouth was polite, but perhaps it was the depression of erosion, the Kestrel pushed the doctor away irritably, picked up a Florent medicine and stabbed it towards the neck of the patient.

   "Wake up! Joey!"

  It was like being punched in a sweet dream. Joey, who was strapped on a stretcher, came and hit with a carp, his eyes widened with a little panic on his face.

  ...

This long silence is a bit embarrassing. Arthur lowered his head as if he was looking at the blueprint, but Eve knew very well that he was just thinking about something he didn't know. The two were getting along quietly. Until one party breaks the peace.

"Feel sorry."

   Arthur finally couldn't bear the long peace. He slowly sat upright, his muddy eyes covered with bloodshot eyes. He was already an old guy, but in this short period of time, he was undoubtedly a lot older.

   "Ah...the troubles are really one after another, and the Protestant regiment has to deal with the treacherous protestants and the remnants of Lawrence, and sometimes have to deal with the Queen."

   Arthur muttered to himself, rubbing his temples vigorously, but he couldn't shake the pain in his mind no matter how hard he was.

"Sorry, Eve, I still pulled you in. I have avoided this as much as possible, but like a curse, no matter how hard I try to the end, it will only be in vain. What is doomed will be doomed to happen, and mortals do everything. Can't change."

   Arthur sighed, took the cigarette from his arms, and dipped it.

  The silent Eve was also slightly moved at this moment, not because of Arthur's words, she had heard such words many times, and she had long been used to it.

  But Arthur rarely smokes. In Eve’s memory, it seems that only when his mother died, he sat quietly by the tombstone and smoked, and now all this seems to be repeated again.

   "She died at that time, I was almost like this, sitting in the corner, smoking quietly, and now it's all a bit similar..."

   Arthur also recalled that time, his wife died that time, this time it might be her daughter who will die.

   "I..." Eve wanted to say something, but was interrupted by him.

  "It’s time to be alone now. I’m not Arthur, but your father. This kind of...teaching? Probably that’s right. There are not many opportunities like this."

  The Duke of Phoenix looked at Eve and inhaled vigorously. The cigarette **** shone with a hot light, but the light was too short, it only rose for a moment, and then went out again.

"After you go out alive, stay away from the old town, the farther the better. I have already planned your future. Just in the drawer of my desk, do as I say, and you will live your life in safety. , As for the marriage partner... Ah, it’s a headache. You can do whatever you want, but I will try my best to survive. After all, you are too unreliable."

  The Duke of Phoenix talked in a whisper, and a rough plan gradually formed in his mind.

  Eve rarely refuted him. As usual, as soon as the Duke of Phoenix talked about the future, Eve would interrupt him loudly, and then pull the father-daughter relationship to a freezing point.

  This does not mean that she agreed to the arrangement of the Duke of Phoenix, she just couldn't bear to let this old guy work any more.

  All the survivors in the scientific research area, all their lives depend on his decision. This is a heavy choice. Eve feels suffocated and pressured just thinking about it.

"Well, I apologize for what I said just now. I know you don't like my arrangement for you, but... only in this way can you survive, stay away from the demon, and live like an ordinary person. You have also seen this. Does **** look like? This is the true portrayal of ordinary people fighting demons."

  He squeezed his head tightly, just like an ordinary person, the face that has always been sensible and calm, at this moment is full of fear.

   "I...I don't want you to be killed by a monster one day suddenly, the body is eaten in a mess, the internal organs and broken bones are all over the floor, I always have nightmares like this sometimes."

  The voice turned into a small whisper. At this moment, the Duke of Phoenix is ​​the person with the most unstable mental state. He is the person in power and the person who makes the decision. He bears the lives of many people, and he has a lot of bones under his feet.

   "Eve!"

  The Duke of Phoenix suddenly shouted, and said to Eve with his hideous face.

  "Didn’t you always want to know what is going on with your weirdness?"

  Eve was startled, this was the answer she had been pursuing, but she didn't expect to know in this situation, and nodded stiffly, the Duke of Phoenix continued.

   "Go to Merlin... You probably don't know him, but it's okay. Go find him. Merlin knows the whole picture of the incident, and he will tell you all this."

  A long silence followed, the Duke of Phoenix asked again.

   "Can you promise me this? Eve, you are a good boy."

  Eve nodded silently, and the Duke of Phoenix in front of him was pitiful like never before. Whether it was a truth or a lie, it seemed that he could feel relieved at this moment.

   said nothing, her eyes lowered, and no one knew what the girl was thinking at the moment.

"leave…"

  He seemed to have changed back to a calm appearance. At the same time, Lan Jade came from outside and directly discussed with Arthur, without giving Eve any chance to speak.

  She feels like a cute doll, played with it casually, and finally leaves silently.

   "You are lying to her, are you?" After Eve left, Lan Jade suddenly asked, "You know, but you don't tell her here."

   Arthur's expression was stagnant, and then he said.

   "Eavesdropping is not a good habit."

   "But I am your escort, I have to keep you safe."

   "I'm safe... Do you think Eve will kill me?" Arthur said and drew the route on the blueprint.

"Who knows? She is unpredictable, and she keeps a lancet hidden on her wrist while listening to your instructions." Lan Jade said, and then asked with some doubts, "You don't know that your daughter has a lancet. Are you accustomed to weapons? I heard those doctors say that when they caught her and escaped for the first time, she hid a bunch of scalpels under her clothes."

   Hearing these Arthur laughed instead.

   "A good habit, at least she has always had weapons to protect herself... well, I did deceive her.

  This is hell. Mortals need some hope to survive in this ghost place. She yearns for that secret so much. In order to know these, she must survive and leave here. This will be her motivation in despair. "

   "What about your motivation?"

   "Let her live."

  Blue Jade looked at Arthur with a complicated expression, and then asked.

   "How many people will survive."

   "I don't know, but Eve and Ovis are to be evacuated first. They have research value and may be able to lift the curse of the king."

   "It's more than that..." Blue Jade obviously found something, and she stared at Arthur.

   "I just hope she can live."

   "So you will lie to more people to die, right?"

"Feel sorry…"

   "Nothing to be sorry, you are the commander, we just listen to you, but Arthur, have you ever felt guilty?" Lan Jade asked.

  Arthur hesitated for a while, then said.

  "Yes, always there, all the time, it follows me like a ghost, but I will not think about it, thinking will be troubled, and trouble will make me hesitate to make a decision.

  At first, I was also very painful, but gradually became numb. It may be the problem of demons. Instead of fighting, we became more and more similar to them. "

"Is that so... I am also often troubled by my father's death. It can be said that I killed him personally. Sometimes I want to ask him a lot of questions. Unfortunately, the dead can't speak," Lan Feicui said, "I am a little envious of Iraq. Fu's."

   "Envy that she might survive?"

   "No, I am envious of someone devouring sins for her. I think I am right. It sounds stupid, but if I can, I would like to have such a person."

  There is not much fluctuation in the expression of the blue jade from beginning to end. In fact, she has always been like this. It seems that nothing can arouse the waves in her heart, but now her eyes are bright.

"But she really deserves to live. We are all people in hell. Even if we escape, we will step into it again someday in the future and die. This is our destined future. We will die in order to eradicate the demons. The hands of the demon."

  "You should dream about retirement, maybe...maybe we can all survive."

  I don't know if I lied to myself, or really hoped for it, Arthur responded.

  Smiled at this Lan Jade, “Let’s tell this kind of lie to the Kestrel, he can look forward to retirement for too long.”

   Smiling seriously, she then asked.

   "What is the plan?"

"We are not far from the lifting zone, but we are separated by monsters. We have to find a way to rush there and return to the ground. Although we don’t know what is going on on the surface, there is a armor of original sin parked there. With it, even if we face With the tide of demons, we have more or less hope of survival. You should be clear about this." Arthur said.

   "I know that Shrike and I relied on the second-generation armor to resist the demons... but that was just barely." Lan Jade was a little worried.

   "No problem, it is a generation of armor, powerful enough to help us kill."

  The first generation of armor that has been gradually sealed up, but at this moment weirdly appear here.

  "Who can drive a first-generation armor?"

  Blue Jade asked worriedly that the burden of driving the second-generation armor almost killed the Shrike, so what terrible erosion of the first-generation armor whose main frame is almost entirely made of demons? Judging from the current manpower, without the knight commander present, no one can resist such erosion.

   "I will drive."

"what?"

  Blue Jade suspected that he had heard it wrong.

  "I will drive a generation of armor. I am the final product of the Ranger plan. I am more resistant to erosion than any of you. This kind of thing should be done by me, not by others."

  Arthur looked directly at the blue jade.

  "We will survive, and more people will survive."

   Then Arthur murmured and laughed.

   "Like Eve, her birth is a miracle, and we will also create a miracle..."

   "One miracle piled up together..."
