Andrew felt his nose in embarrassment and said, "we mercenaries are all Desperado. Our pursuit of life is far from exquisite. Most of us have experienced a very difficult situation. Even if we joined the mercenary Corps later, found similar people and partners, and made a lot of money, we are still satisfied with the level of food and clothing, I think that's enough. "

Andrew's tone is calm, but it's not difficult to hear some emotion from his language, which seems to contain some unknown past.

Chiyang was curious about Andrew, because he was a black man, not a bronze black, but a dark, shiny black complexion. At first glance, he knew that he was African.

When he stopped cutting vegetables, Chiyang looked up at Andrew and asked, "are you from South Africa?"

"East Africans!" Andrew answered softly.

East Africa, the poorest and backward place on the earth, is shrouded by natural disasters all the year round, and people are also eroded by famine and disease. It is the area with the lowest value of human happiness.

Chiyang has never been to East Africa, but he often sees reports of war on TV. Although it is a barren place, it is also a place where terrorist organizations take root.

"Is your ability acquired?" Chiyang thought of some super power movies he had seen, in which normal people were often caught by the laboratory to do mutant experiments. Now he couldn't help asking curiously.

Andrew chuckled and denied, "No

Without waiting for him to ask again, Andrew seemed to find the object to tell. He spoke to himself and said, "the abilities of those with abilities are all born. No one knows why. We all laugh at ourselves for being a mutant!"

"When I was a child, my body would often spontaneously ignite for no reason. Once, when my mother saw me, she used water and quilt to help me put out the fire. However, she found that I didn't have any scars or even blisters. Later, she saw me several times, and she realized that I was different from ordinary children. "

"But after all, it's her own child. She helped me hide this, didn't tell anyone, and allowed me to go to school again, because she was also afraid that others would find my abnormality."

"Just at that time, I was too small to control the power in my body freely. I felt my body gradually burning before I had to spontaneous combustion, which gave me enough time to hide in a place where no one was."

"However, I was found out. The fire on me burned the house of my family, and the neighbors came to help put out the fire. But at that time, my ability seemed to be improved, and the water couldn't be put out. The fire burned all day and night, and burned the house to ashes. Everyone thought I was burned alive. "

"However, when I came out of the ruins undamaged, I will always remember the eyes those people looked at me at that time."

Speaking of this, Andrew looked up at red sun with a smile on his face.

That smile has deep meaning, his face because too dark and can't see emotion, but in that pair of bright eyes, it is difficult to hide the pain.

Andrew continued: "East Africa is an extremely backward and closed place, where religions abound. Because of years of famine and war, people are in awe of the gods to appease their restless hearts and suffering."

"And I, who can't burn to death, is regarded as an evil person. The incarnation of Satan, the reincarnation of evil spirit

"I am bound to a cross made of stones as a sacrifice. You will use me to offer a shrine to show your loyalty to the gods."

At this point, Andrew once again sneered at himself: "but it's ridiculous. East African sacrificial ceremonies are all based on fire sacrifice. Fire represents holiness and heat, which is the best way to express loyalty. The chief ordered me to be burned to death with fire. However, the fire lasted three days and three nights, and it could not kill me at all. "

"Not only that, the fire sacrifice revived the rest of my sleeping power, but I couldn't control it. The burst of energy destroyed everything around me in an instant, including houses, life, everything..."

Hearing this, Chiyang was secretly shocked. He never thought that behind Andrew's powerful strength, there would be such a painful story.

"And then you left East Africa?" Chiyang asked, following Andrew's words.

Andrew nodded: "when I came down from the altar, my whole body was full of fire. When other people in the village heard the news, they were scared to death. No one dared to stop me, so I left my hometown with my mother."

Then Andrew sighed softly and said in a low voice, "I was only nine years old at that time."

Chiyang, nine years old

What Andrew experienced is undoubtedly the shadow of his childhood. A nine-year-old child is actually going to be burned alive as a sacrifice by his people. It's chilling just to think about it.

"I'm sorry to remind you of such a dark past." Red Yang guilty mouth apology.

Andrew, however, had a meaningless smile on his face and shook his head: "in fact, I've already let go, because now I'm quite comfortable with the fact that I'm an alien. Combined with the situation and environment at that time, it is perfectly normal for a person like me to appear in a place like East Africa and be treated as a demon sacrifice. "

"And this memory is not painful for me. Although I was burned for three days and three nights, I didn't feel any pain. The only feeling I remember was numbness in my hands and feet. You know how sad it is to be tied up in the posture of Jesus for three days and three nights." Red sun chuckles a, looking at Andrew so complacent state of mind, he also subconsciously followed with a sigh of relief. Although he had been in contact with Andrew for some time before, there was still hostility between the two sides, so there was no understanding at all. As a black man, Andrew even had a generation gap in skin color with everyone subconsciously. However, after hearing his story, Chiyang suddenly felt that Andrew's whole life was warm and more three-dimensional, and the distance between them was also shortened“ And you At this time, Andrew suddenly shifted the topic to Chiyang, his eyes full of curiosity, and said: "I was very curious when I fought before, and I was completely shocked by your ability. It's powerful and incredible, which I've never seen before." Red sun smell speech facial expression one stagnate, then ask in reply: "in addition to your companion and we, have you met other ability person?"
