At dusk, George came into the ward and saw zero packing up.
This is the third day after Lanqi failed to assassinate. He has basically recovered and is ready to leave the hospital. However, unexpectedly, he will leave Phoenix tomorrow, then cross death ridge and continue to move towards the blue collar mountains in the north.
George threw a crumpled cigarette at him while the officer slammed the door of the ward. Otherwise, the smell of inferior nicotine will certainly attract criticism. George doesn't want to be complained by the hospital to the military headquarters.
"Why, are you leaving?" George asked, lighting his cigarette.
At the end of the order, he stretched out his finger and wiped it directly on the cigarette end, and the cigarette was lit immediately.
George was slightly surprised: "so the fire element can still be used like this? Sometimes I envy you powers. Sometimes it's too fucking convenient."
Zero smiled and said, "are you here to pay me back for my wine?"
George's face immediately pulled down. He shook his head and said, "I said, man, you shouldn't be so stingy."
"You're right this time." zero said with a smile, "so I'm going to buy you a few more drinks before I leave."
"Yes, it's just like a man. Don't worry about it so much. Just pay for the wine." George laughed. It's always pleasant to have a drink, isn't it?
"What are your plans after that?"
George asked casually as they left the ward and walked along the passage to the hospital gate.
Zero replied vaguely, "I'm going to Beidi. I should leave tomorrow."
"You don't wait for camper, the fat pig will have to leave for two or three days?" George said unexpectedly.
"Didn't you also say that I'm not like him? In fact, I just stopped by to protect him and earn some extra money."
George held him: "In other words, you're going to cross death mountain alone with that child? Listen, man, death mountain is not a good place to visit mountains and rivers. It's full of dangerous jungles, mutant animals and mob settlements. But the real danger is death flowers growing from nuclear waste. They are everywhere, and those who touch them will die. That's also the real origin of the name of death mountain. What's more, at the beginning of death mountain There is also a bottomless seam at the mouth due to the impact of the plate. If you don't pay attention, you will die without a burial place. So I have to say, you're very unwise. "
Zero smiles without answering.
Naturally, he also knows that the success rate of the team is much higher than that of the individual to cross the forbidden area of life such as death ridge. But now he can't choose. Parkland's killer has appeared and wandered around him. If zero still leisurely follows the caravan, it's no different from being a live target. Besides, zero feels that it's better to stay with camper's caravan In recent years, his perception of danger has decreased a lot.
Too convenient and comfortable life will blunt the sharpest knife. If you want to keep your sharpness, you have to go back to the wilderness. Sharpen yourself with endless danger, you can keep or even become sharper.
A blunt blade can't pierce pachlan. Only a sharper knife can do it. This is very clear. Besides, he also wants to use the God of death mountain to carry out anti sniping. If he wants to have a pleasant trip in the future, zero must keep the killer on the God of death mountain forever, which is one of the reasons why he separated from the caravan.
Looking at zero's expression, George knew he couldn't convince him. The officer didn't spend too much time on this. Everyone in the wilderness could choose their own way of life as long as they could afford the price. Just at the thought that Moni's young face would haunt the dangerous jungle, George felt some heartache for no reason.
If Jonah were alive, would she be as old as the child?
George thought that the officer looked more sentimental than usual.
People come and go on the streets. At the moment when the radiation intensity is gradually decreasing, no one wants to stay in a house that can be stuffy and sick. At night, the flow of people on the streets will be greater, and the bars in the city will be full. This is also the common way of life of people in the new era, which goes out like animals at night.
On the busy street, zero saw moni.
The girl with a lesbian on her head is holding a photo and asking everyone passing by. In the photo, she is a young woman who looks a little similar to Moni, but is Moni's mother. This photo is drawn by an expert under Moni's description using the imaging technology of the information center. The synthetic photo with a similarity of more than 90% cost Moni nearly 20 yuan.
The money was not given as zero, but was earned by girls who took time to dance in the street in the evening and at night while taking care of zero. Of course, Moni's beauty always caused some trouble. But the dagger flying between her fingers and dazzling fancy strokes always turned trouble into no trouble. In fact, even zero praised Moni's talent in using daggers.
Unfortunately, before Moni did not experience gene shock and produce the ability in any field, such technology can only be HuaQuan and embroidered legs, but it is enough to scare ordinary people.
While staying in Phoenix these days, Moni was not idle. The girl actively sought all the information about her mother through various methods, but now it seems that the effect is not very good.
When Moni lowered her head in disappointment again, a warm palm was placed on her head. Moni raised her head and saw a smiling zero between her fingers.
"As long as you don't give up, you will succeed one day!" zero encouraged.
The disappointed expression on Moni's face cleared away. She nodded heavily and took zero's hand, just like a daughter who spoiled her father. Then she saw George next to her and quickly nodded hello to the officer.
"Don't disturb your father and daughter, zero, don't forget you'll buy me a drink in the evening!"
After reminding zero, George shook his big hand as a farewell gesture. The tall figure merged into the crowd and soon disappeared.
Zero patted Moni's small shoulder and said, "let's go to dinner first. Then we'll go to the mall to buy some supplies. We'll leave Phoenix tomorrow."
In Phoenix these days, their food is basically bread and water. It's a rare time to eat outside. Even if it's not for those precious ingredients, it's enough for Moni to change her taste for a long time. So the little regret that she could no longer stay in the city to inquire about her mother disappeared from the girl's heart.
Looking at Moni's bright and innocent face, I feel that it's worth an occasional luxury. At dusk, Moni was walking like a happy bird in front of her. Zero seems to have a feeling of returning to the old times and taking her daughter to the street.
It's a pity there's still one less person around. If only Leah were there. Zero suddenly floated the idea. When he thought of Leah, zero felt a slight pain in his heart.
"What's the matter, zero?" the careful girl soon found something strange on zero's face.
He shook his head and said with a smile, "nothing, but the wound still hurts."
He was smiling, but his smile was reluctant, which made Moni know that zero answer was not what she asked. But she is a smart girl. She doesn't want to say, and she doesn't want to ask. So she smiled like an angel and walked towards a restaurant on the commercial street with zero hand.
In Moni's heart, even if she can't do anything for zero, it's good as long as she can make him smile. To this end, Moni is willing to show the most beautiful smile for zero!
It was six in the morning and zero opened his eyes.
He went into the bathroom, and a moment later, the water with light warmth spread all over his body. This is zero's last bath in Phoenix. In the next days, he won't want to have such enjoyment for the second time until he crosses death ridge to the next base.
For this reason, he is willing to pay another 2 yuan on the bill.
Any level of net water flows all over your body, closing your eyes and feeling the condition of your body.
In terms of the wound, he has fully recovered now. This can be seen from the fact that after inviting George to drink wine last night, zero sneaked into the hospital alone to destroy his relevant materials, and ran around Phoenix with the hospital guard for several times without blushing or jumping.
After fighting the evolution of Fenli wolf and escaping from the death of the red wolf and the parkland killer, zero has used up as many as six evolution points again. These six evolution points zero do not intend to put them into any ability for the time being, and even carefully preserve them to prevent them from automatically transforming into other first-order abilities.
The more the ability of zero is improved, the more we know that the evolution point of higher-order ability will rise geometrically. Although many low-level ability combinations can play an effect not inferior to high-level ability, this is only relative rather than absolute. Zero believes that when the level of ability is opened enough distance, the strength of ability can not be compensated by the number.
A high-level ability must overwhelm a high number of second kills, but a low-level ability.
And zero also believes that when he leaves death ridge alive, he will have more evolutionary points in exchange for stronger ability.
When he finished his shower and walked out of the bathroom. Moni woke up, packed up and skillfully prepared his tactical clothes for zero. The tactical clothes worn before zero were purchased in Nu Reef City, but they have been damaged after repeated battles and can no longer function. To this end, zero bought a new set of tactical clothes while buying supplies last night.
When this camouflage tactical suit was worn on zero, he seemed to change back to the soldier who just woke up at z7 base. This tactical suit is not only fit, but also the camouflage on the surface can hide and confuse the opponent when moving in the jungle. More importantly, a layer of alloy wire ring is embedded in the interlayer of tactical clothing. The alloy wire ring not only makes this tactical suit more tough and not easy to damage, but also plays a certain impact resistance. Therefore, I bought it for 20% more pocket money than ordinary tactical clothes.
Guns, ammunition, grenades, food and water... After carefully checking the materials in the marching backpack, zero left the hotel with moni. The faint golden sunshine in the sky is pouring down. In this beautiful morning in the old era, they are about to enter the forbidden area of life.
Death mountain!
