End of the World Cycle

"Found it. There are these two people. Xu Yingshan is in the Medical Research Institute of Haotian Base, and this Su Mianmian..."

"What's wrong with Su Mianmian?" Xu Nuo walked forward and asked anxiously.

"Although her identity is registered, she has become a test subject."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know what kind of experimental subject it is, and it won't be shown in the information, but as a medical experimental subject, it must be in the Haotian base." Rong Yin explained.

Xu Nuo lowered his head with no emotion visible. He inadvertently felt the hand on his shoulder. It was Xie Qin's. Xu Nuo raised his head and looked at Xie Qin seriously.

"Sister, I want to go find my mother."

"Okay. I'll take you there."

"Miss, can we ask the commander about this matter later? There is no need to rush now since we have found the person."

Xie Qin nodded and his eyes fell on Rong Yin again.

"Aunt Rong, can you help me find someone else?"

"Give me the information and I'll help you find it." Rong Yin looked at the cute little girl and smiled. She was obviously the daughter of the chief's family, but she was not spoiled at all, she was polite and well-behaved.

Xie Qin took out another piece of paper with Pei Yang's personal information from his pocket and handed it to Rong Yin.

"There is this person, he is in the Chemical Research Institute of Donghuang Base, but that place is extremely confidential. I can't find much information here. I only know where he is. For details, I can only go to Donghuang Base to ask."

"Okay, thank you. I know where he is. I'm glad he's alive. Thank you, Auntie."

"You're welcome."

After leaving the office, Xie Qin followed Chen Chen back to the fourth underground floor. After waiting in the office for a while, Guo Dingtao arrived, accompanied by a very young soldier.

He was very tall, Xie Qin just reached his waistline, and he must be 195cm tall. His facial features were so deep that he looked like a minority, or a yellow-white mixed race. He was not as stunning as the Shui brothers at first sight, but the type that looked more and more handsome the more you looked at him.

Wearing the military training uniform, even through the clothes, one can clearly see the outline of his muscles, like a sculpture, very strong. It gives people a feeling that the whole person is very hard, he is sure that this person's body must be piece by piece. At a distance of about two meters, Xie Qin can still feel the faint smell of sweat on his body, which is not smelly, nor unpleasant.

Appearance and figure are secondary. After all, among so many people, there will always be a few with stunning figures and looks. The main thing is that this man is a dual-system mutant, fourth-level thunder and third-level strength. When Xie Qin looked at the man, the man also looked at Xie Qin thoughtfully, then frowned, his eyes met Xie Qin's big watery eyes, then he looked away and said nothing.

Xie Qin was very surprised. Superpowers had not been around for very long. Even if the country's technology was very advanced, there shouldn't be people with superpowers above level four, let alone dual-power ones.

Guo Dingtao looked at Xie Qin and then spoke.

"My soldier is called Qin Zhang. He is a dual-system mutant like you. His lightning ability is already at the fourth level. He is also at the third level of water ability. He is currently the strongest person in our Eastern Military Region." After Guo Dingtao's introduction, the young man named Qin Zhang just nodded at Xie Qin.

"Well, Atai, I can see that he is really amazing. Did he eat something?" Xie Qin asked naively.

Guo Dingtao shook his head.

"When Qin Zhang awakened his superpowers, he was different from ordinary people. His lightning ability was already at the second level when he awakened. The base research institute has also done research on his situation and found that it is innate. His ability to absorb corpse crystals is ten times that of ordinary superpowers. If we could find high-level corpse crystals, Qin Zhang would have probably reached several levels already." What Guo Dingtao said was not a secret.

But for Xie Qin, it was a great shock. If the plant crystal core appeared, the research institute also studied the role of the superpower crystal core, and the high-level zombies appeared. With ten times the absorption capacity, this person named Qin Zhang could really leap to the top of the strong.

Only then did Xie Qin realize how narrow the scope of a book was and how low his vision was. Once he stepped out of his own little world, he would find that there were countless powerful people out there.

"Go home and have a rest first. I'll let Qin Zhang take you around the base in the afternoon." Guo Dingtao had a smile on his face. He looked kind, but Xie Qin still caught the gleam in Guo Dingtao's eyes.

This old man seems to be planning something.

"it is good."

Xie Qin, Xu Nuo and Guo Dingtao went up to the first floor. After exiting the elevator, they walked a few steps and went up a flight of stairs. They didn't speak a word along the way. Guo Dingtao was the one walking in front, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

Guo Dingtao lived on the second floor. Although the location was not the best, it was the closest to the military base. The house was not big, with a living area of ​​about 100 square meters, plus a yard of about 70 square meters.

When they entered the house, there was only a woman in her forties who had prepared the food and arranged it, standing at the entrance waiting for them. The decoration of the house was simple, and the walls seemed to be made of spliced ​​metal plates, but they looked very solid.

"Go upstairs and prepare a room for the young lady. This one is called Xu Nuo, right?"

"Yes, Tai."

"Xu Nuo will live in the army dormitory later. There is room there."

"Commander, this kid can squeeze in with me, it's okay." This was the first time Qin Zhang spoke, his voice was low and deep. Xie Qin was sitting opposite him, and somehow, when the voice entered his ears, he felt a little numb.

"Since you don't mind, then stay. Let's eat."

The dishes on the table weren't very good, but they were nutritionally balanced, and they looked colorful and appetizing. While eating, Xie Qin wanted to talk about going to the Haotian Base.

"Ah..." Xie Qin was interrupted just as he opened his mouth.

"You can't eat without words."

Guo Dingtao's words were cold, and Xie Qin was so scared that she shut up. The meal was very quiet. After the meal, Guo Dingtao asked Xie Qin to go to his study.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Atai, we came here originally to look for someone. Uncle Chen took us to ask at noon and found Xu Nuo's parents. They are at the Haotian Base. I want to send him there."

"This is a simple matter. You don't need to send him there in person. I'll send someone to take him there tomorrow morning."

"But..."

"I don't know how your father disciplined you. But now that you are by my side, you have to listen to me." Guo Dingtao's tone was stiff, and he was intimidating without even getting angry.

As he spoke, he took something out of the drawer in the study. Before Xie Qin could react, a box of exquisite chocolates appeared in front of her.

Looking at the things in front of him, his opinion of Guo Dingtao changed a little. He decided to give it a try. He bit his lip and shouted pitifully.

"Atai~~" She sounded crying and her tears seemed to be about to fall.

Guo Dingtao was stunned for a moment. Guo Dingtao had only one son in his life, Guo Yanbang, but his son was a playboy and had many offspring, but they were all sons.

Coincidentally, all of his great-grandchildren also gave birth to sons. At present, his only legitimate grandson, Guo Dongkang, gave birth to a girl, Guo Qinling. To be honest, he doesn't know how to communicate with her.

The little girl looked so delicate and adorable. When they met, Guo Dingtao didn't know how to communicate with her. He tried his best to be gentle, but he still seemed to scare her.

"You, why are you crying? I didn't scold you!"

"Atai, you're so mean. You're so mean to me." When Xie Qin heard the anxious tone, she realized there was a chance, and tears immediately fell from her eyes.

"No, I didn't. Don't cry. I didn't let you go because I was afraid you might get into danger." Guo Dingtao was anxious, and his voice inevitably got louder.

Xie Qin decided to take another gamble to see if she could test the limit of Guo Dingtao's tolerance for hypocrisy. So she bit her upper lip, as if trying to hold back tears, raised her eyes, and looked directly at Guo Dingtao with tears in her eyes.

Even Guo Dingtao, who was used to seeing bloody storms, was also panicked. The main reason was that the people in front of him were his own children and grandchildren, so he couldn't help but feel more pity for them. In addition, Xie Qin was so fair and cute that he felt that he was indeed the fierce one at first sight.

"Grandpa, Qinqin wants to go." Seeing Guo Dingtao's reaction, Xie Qin knew that she could definitely go.

"Okay, okay, go. If Qinqin wants to go, then go. Can you stop crying?" This sentence almost broke Xie Qin's defense, not because Guo Dingtao agreed quickly, but because Guo Dingtao tried to clamp his throat to make his voice sound less fierce, as if he was coaxing a child.

"Thank you, Atai! Atai is the best in the world." Strike while the iron is hot, Xie Qin directly rushed past Guo Dingtao's chocolate and hugged Guo Dingtao and said coquettishly.

The child in his arms was so jumpy, and Guo Dingtao realized, after getting to know her a little better, that this was also a naughty child. After hugging her, Guo Dingtao really fell in love with his great-granddaughter.

"You can go, but A-Tai needs someone to follow and protect you. Let Qin Zhang downstairs take you there."

"Ah? ... I can do it myself. Look, I can come to you alone with Xu Nuo. I don't need any protection."

"I can't refuse. If you can get here safely, it will be a blessing for our ancestors! Little girl, you are short-sighted. You don't know how dangerous the outside world is! You never know when a strange thing will appear and take your life!"

"Atai~you, you are mean to me again." Xie Qin let go of Guo Dingtao, took a half step back, raised his head and looked at Guo Dingtao pitifully again.

"No, that's how A Tai talks. I'm not being mean to you. A Tai knows Qin Qin is very capable, but I'm not afraid of the worst. Qin Zhang is the head of our Eastern Military Region. He's very smart and capable. A Tai can rest assured when he protects you."

Xie Qin could tell that there was doting in Guo Dingtao's voice, but the words were not to be refused. She was sure that if she didn't take Qin Zhang with her, Guo Dingtao would definitely not agree to let him leave.

According to the defense method of Pangu Base, without the identity of the Guo family, I can't get in at all, let alone find someone. So Qin Zhang must be brought along.

"Okay." Xie Qin replied reluctantly.

"That's good, Qinqin. Sometimes A Tai isn't mean to you. He just speaks loudly. Don't cry easily."

"Atai...Atai, do you hate the crying Qinqin?"

"No, no, it's Grandma's fault. Grandma said the wrong thing. Qinqin is not sad, not sad."

Looking at Guo Dingtao who was coaxing her carefully, Xie Qin felt like a fool when they met just now. Maybe this man just seemed calm because it was still working hours and it was the first time he met her. In fact, he was also an old man who loved the younger generation. But it could not be denied that he was also an old fox who had experienced many battles.

A person's aura can be determined from the first sight of each other. Faced with such a person, Xie Qin felt that he could only use family affection to numb his spirit.

Then the two of them chatted about their Wuliang Base. Xie Qin said some things that could be verified, half true and half false, and put all the blame on Guo Dongkang for the construction of the base.

In the end, the old man felt that his grandson was a powerful person.

"Sure enough, the legitimate grandson of my Guo family has a promising future." After Guo Dingtao said this, Xie Qin finally understood that even a grandson or a great-grandson is still a relative in the eyes of the old man.

Xiaobao collected some information and let Xie Qin know that Guo Dongkang's mother was the daughter of Guo Dingtao's close comrade-in-arms, and was married to him in a formal ceremony and was listed in the family tree as his daughter-in-law.

Therefore, in Guo Dingtao's eyes, his status must be much higher. Then he should live up to this status, and perhaps be a little arrogant. It would also be much easier to act in the official circles.

After a two-hour lunch break, Xie Qin's room on the third floor was cleaned up and new light blue sheets and quilts were put on. Since he didn't plan to stay longer, Xie Qin didn't take anything out.

After changing clothes and taking a nap on the bed, Xie Qin quickly packed up when the nanny knocked on the door. After going downstairs, the man named Qin Zhang was already waiting for her.

Guo Dingtao had already joined the army. Xu Nuo was an ordinary person, still a child, who had hardly slept because of the long journey and the fear of not being able to find his parents before. He fell asleep and was not woken up.

Only Qin Zhang and Xie Qin went out.

Qin Zhang was too tall and strong. Walking beside Xie Qin, he looked like a mountain. He almost blocked all the sunlight coming in from the top. They walked down to the second floor of the base without saying a word.

Xie Qin asked tentatively.

"Do you live at Grandma's house too?"

"My job is to protect the leader."

"Tai asked you to accompany me to other bases later."

"Ok, I know."

There was nothing more to say here. Qin Zhang was a very serious person, and it was hard to tell what emotions he had. It seemed like he didn't want to communicate with him, so Xie Qin didn't ask any more questions.

Qin Zhang had long legs and walked very fast, while Xie Qin almost trotted. As if he had thought of something, he stood still.

"Hey! You! Slow down." Xie Qin's tone was a little high. Although it was an order, the girl's sweet voice did not sound offensive.

Qin Zhang was stunned for a moment, then stood there without moving, waiting for Xie Qin to catch up.
