Arknights is too real, right?

"I am a disaster messenger."

After hearing this answer, Xia Feng thought that was indeed the case.

Although he is wrapped tightly and looks like an infected person who does not want to reveal his identity, his true identity is a natural disaster messenger. The clothes and scarf on his body should be a special source of isolation. Material.

The heavy Originium substance emitting from his body must have been due to a natural disaster he had experienced not long ago. Perhaps he was evacuating residents during a natural disaster, or perhaps he was entering a natural disaster area for rescue.

At least on the surface, the work of natural disaster messengers is free. They are not employed by the state and are not driven by profit. Their footprints are all over the world, just to let more people survive before natural disasters strike.

For Xia Feng, who has personally experienced natural disasters, he knows very well how terrifying natural disasters are. To be able to deal with such things all day long, in addition to a strong heart, you also need to have extraordinary willpower, so facing He still had very high respect for the natural disaster messenger in front of him.

"It turns out that you are a great messenger of natural disasters. How disrespectful."

"It's just my job, that's all."

Xia Feng didn't know what kind of experiences this person had in his life, so that he could call this kind of profession that was close to death so calmly as work. However, this was obviously not something he wanted to get to the bottom of. He was now concerned about something else. thing.

This man's body was filled with strong Originium substances. Although the concentration was not enough to cause illness to ordinary people passing by in a short time, there was no doubt that the natural disaster he experienced was not long ago.

"Mr. Messenger, I want to know, have you just experienced a natural disaster?"

"That's right."

"About what time?"

"Ten days ago."

"Is it in Casimir territory?"

"That's right."

Xia Feng took a deep breath and asked the question he really wanted to know.

"Can you tell me where this natural disaster is?"

Upon hearing Xia Feng's question, the expression of the messenger sitting on the wooden box immediately changed, and his eyes towards Xia Feng became complicated.

After a moment, he said in a deep voice.

"My job is to let people evacuate before a natural disaster strikes. If I arrive late, I will do my best to rescue them from the natural disaster. However, I will never direct people to the natural disaster area."

"You misunderstood."

"I know what you mean, and I have probably guessed what you are planning to do. I advise you to give up. This natural disaster is very unusual. For everyone, life is precious and cannot be exchanged for any amount of wealth. s things."

"I"

"I can't answer your question. Sorry, I have to leave."

After that, Mr. Messenger stood up and silently left the alley.

Standing in the dark alley, Xia Feng laughed bitterly.

Yes, he should have known that the job of natural disaster messengers is to guide people away from natural disasters. How could they, who devoted their lives to this work, provide information to him and let him go to natural disasters.

Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, he is just as greedy as those plunderers who are desperate for the Source Stone regardless of their lives. If his will is not strong enough, he may feel ashamed in front of Mr. Messenger just now.

However, at this moment, he is very clear about the purpose of everything he does. Even if others don't understand him, he will do it. He doesn't care what others think of him, because he knows that what is more dangerous than natural disasters is the human heart. Years from now, when a real disaster strikes, even more people will suffer. The chain reaction of the revolution started by someone on the world will be far more terrifying than a natural disaster.

He's not arrogant enough to want to save everyone, but at least he wants to save the people he holds dear.

Nanfeng stood at the entrance of the alley, looking at Xia Feng's back. For some reason, at this moment, he felt that this back was so heavy. What Xia Feng was really carrying might be much more than he knew.

"Summer breeze."

Xia Feng turned around, and even though his eyes were full of exhaustion, he managed to squeeze out a smile.

"It's okay, let's find a place to rest."

"kindness."

The streets of Callan Town are full of potholes, and the air is filled with dust from horse hooves.

While walking on the road, Nanfeng couldn't help but ask.

"Xia Feng, don't tell me that you are planning a natural disaster."

Xia Feng stretched a lot as he walked.

"Even if I want to fight, I have to know the position."

Xia Feng said it didn't matter, but Nan Feng obviously cared about it.

"I advise you to give up. It's impossible to succeed."

Xia Feng turned his head sideways.

"Why do you think so?"

Nanfeng replied with a serious look.

"We have no professional experience in collecting source stones. I have learned before that a natural disaster action team like the Glasgow Gang must have at least ten people dispatched at one time. In addition to excellent leaders, every member They are the elite among the elite, and sometimes cooperate with well-known mercenary organizations. They have a clear division of labor, including reconnaissance, concealment, vigilance, collection, and retreat. Every step must be perfect, but even an organization with first-class action capabilities, An accident may happen in a chaotic natural disaster area."

"Oh, what accident are you referring to?"

Nanfeng said sternly.

"According to gossip, about four months ago, the leader of the Glasgow gang, the King of Advancement, led elite members to Ursus. Their actions were very covert. No one knew what their purpose was, but it was obvious that they were It’s for the Origin Stone.”

"Then what?"

"Then according to the information we bought, just half a month after the Glasgow Gang's operation started, the King of Advancement returned to Victoria with injured members. She was said to be in a coma when she came back, and the members were worse than before departure. The number of soldiers decreased, and someone in the team was suspected of being infected with ore disease. Obviously, they failed in that operation."

There was no visible change in Xia Feng's expression, and he just replied lightly.

"Yeah."

Xia Feng's calm look made Nan Feng a little excited. In his opinion, Xia Feng was not aware of the dangers in the natural disaster area at all.

"Xia Feng, I advise you not to be naive, you..."

"south wind."

Xia Feng stood still and interrupted Nan Feng's voice.

"Nanfeng, do you know the name of the Ursus natural disaster area that the King of Advancement went to at that time?"

"I don't know."

"Mandel City."

Nanfeng's pupils shrank instantly. He remembered the name of Mandel City because Xia Feng had mentioned it to him accidentally before.

"Xia Feng, are you..."

Xia Feng raised his head and looked at the gloomy sky. This sky was not as dark as the sky in Mandel City, but it was equally full of haze.

A calm voice came from his mouth.

"Yes, I was in the Glasgow Gang at the time. The reason why the King of Propulsion was in a coma was because I injected her with drugs to suppress ore disease."

"What!"

Xia Feng continued to speak calmly, as if he was telling a very common thing.

"Nanfeng, no one is completely sure of surviving in a natural disaster area. Even if you seem to be fully prepared, unpredictable situations will still arise one after another. Everyone wants to get the Source Stone, but the purpose of getting the Source Stone is not They are all different. At that time, I didn’t understand anything. I had no purpose. My only wish was to let someone live healthily. But later I understood that you can’t survive by fearing death. You can only survive with the determination to die. , to survive until the end.”

Xia Feng's thoughts drifted back to the ruined city filled with death.

The memory of Weina's bloodshot eyes was still fresh. It was as if he could feel Weina's tears falling on his face. At that moment, they both wanted to use their lives to extend each other's life.

It was precisely because he chose to forcibly inject the inhibitor into Vina and used his life to help Indra stop the pursuers that he became the current Xia Feng.

Wei Na thought he was dead, but he survived. He did not hesitate at that time. This was his choice without regret.

Therefore, he can do what Wei Na cannot do now, no, he must do it for Wei Na.
