It seems that in just a second, you opened your eyes in the turbulence, and Lucas in front yelled like he had seen a ghost: "The captain is awake! Quick! Calvino, get away from this psychopath!"

Italo Calvino next to you didn't move, and neither could you - because you were strapped like a crab and thrown in the backseat, with Daikon taking over as your chauffeur.

You showed a smile that greeted the eighteenth generation of his ancestors, "Let me go."

"No!" Lucas categorically refused: "This is a security measure, Captain, you are scarier than those zombies."

"I want to remind you that this behavior is treason."

Lukas dangled his hands on the back of the chair, and said in an exaggerated tone (exaggerated to the point of mourning): "Captain, you have to be considerate of us, it's all for safety - I almost broke a bone! Mental patients can't drive on the road, So you can stay there with peace of mind."

You would have thrown this guy out if your hands weren't tied.

"What about Calvino? Are you not afraid of what I will do?"

Daikun said slowly: "The first thing to do to treat a disease is to find the trigger mechanism. Since Calvino made your dominant performance appear, then you need to get in touch with Calvino more, so as to find the trigger mechanism. A stimulus for the problem to be completely resolved." Lucas nodded desperately beside him: "That's right, captain, listen to the experts."

The reason for your silence is only because your hands are tied and you can't compare your middle fingers.

Lucas also exhorted: "So Calvino, get closer to the captain - don't discriminate against neuropathy, this is all for his speedy recovery."

Calvino also nodded solemnly, oh shit, why did you get all these teammates together.

You were holding your breath when you heard Calvino asking you softly: "Lin Luo, do you remember what happened last night?"

You froze for a moment, "Sorry, maybe something bad happened last night, I apologize to you, but I can't remember anything."

Lucas chimed in again: "The worst thing is that you forget how violent you are, look at my hands! This is a work injury, a work injury!" You turned your face away with a headache and ignored him.

So along the way, your originally indifferent face was tense like a god of evil.

You have always thought that you are a responsible captain, a friendly companion, and a reliable comrade-in-arms. It is not an exaggeration. You can move China, but now you are treated like a mental patient, which is really unfair.But your anger did not affect the cheerful atmosphere of the others. The gray buildings in the distance gradually enlarged in the field of vision, changing from sand grains to frisbees, and then covering the entire car window.

Lucas yelled: "Wow! It's exciting! Does it look like an alien base? It's like drilling out of the ground."

You said coldly, "You are trying to subvert the status of the Pearl of the Orient."

Lucas scratched his head, "Captain, your cold joke is not funny."

"Ah."

The field of vision wobbled closer, and some dilapidated buildings and broken large-scale machinery began to appear in the yellow sand as we passed by—it had a taste of mechanical punk. tombstone.

You have also seen the tall tower in the center up close. There are some bullet holes and spider webs on it, and the surface is almost all glass curtain walls, which are gray because they are covered by dust.

This tower is indeed an exaggerated height of "pickable stars"—from the Tower of Babel to the Burj Khalifa①, human's conquest of nature is always reflected in tall buildings.

In fact, the Longqing Base is not the only remnant of this. At its peak, the Longqing Base almost had the sphere of influence of a city-level city. This tower is just the center of the big pie—it is also an administrative organization headed by the founder of the Longqing Base. The place of residence is equivalent to the provisional government.

Even if the central government is defeated as rumored in the market, the base can still hold on for a while. To use a common saying: a dead camel is bigger than a horse, and a base that has lost its core figures is still strong enough to fight against zombies—but that is when people are united. Together.

But no matter how advanced the equipment is, it can't gather the scattered hearts. Moreover, the military strength in the early days of the end of the world is still extremely weak. Under the instigation of a few people with different intentions, the base was easily and instantly defeated under the siege of zombies.People fled in all directions and took everything they could take away. In the past few years, adventurers or hunters kept coming to this huge corpse to hunt for treasures (rarely for any souvenirs like Lucas), and the original base was slowly destroyed like this. Slowly eroding, now only this dusty building is left to witness the fleeting glory of the year.

Seeing that the scenic spot is about to arrive, Lucas suddenly yelled to stop, and the sudden brake made you almost fall out of the seat. Fortunately, Calvino helped you in time, and you couldn't help shouting: "Damn it! , what madness!"

"There are people there, there are people!" Lucas pointed ahead, and you did see a few cars and sparse figures at the foot of the tower.

You glanced at it, and your tone remained unchanged: "Oh, just drive over there, what are you afraid of?"

Lucas's tone was rarely full of worry, "But we are wanted criminals! Will they catch us? I think these guys seem to be hunters②, these mad dogs will do anything for the chance of a bounty... …Oh My God!"

You replied in a bad tone: "My big poet brother, you just remembered this matter now, although it was not easy, it's a pity—it's too late, they have seen us long ago."

Lucas asked anxiously: "Fuck! Captain, what should we do! Do you want to go straight down?"

"I'm a mental patient being monitored now, what are you asking me for?"

Daikun held the steering wheel and stared ahead, Calvino grabbed the knife, Lucas looked left and right, and was about to cry, "Captain!"

Only then did you laugh out loud and stopped teasing him, "Okay, what's the rush, it's always good to be open and aboveboard, especially for those who are known for their mysteries③, don't worry about anything now, just be honest."

"But……"

"Listen to me, Lucas, do you still think this is the original information age? No, the weakest thing in the last days is information—even our best walkie-talkie has a radius of 300 meters. None of us know, the worst thing is to die, what else is there to be afraid of?" Maybe your emotions infected Lucas, he nodded vigorously and shouted (even if his voice was still a little trembling): " Uncle Dai, tell me straight up!"

You let Calvino untie the ropes and nestle comfortably in the seat, and now you have regained your proud captaincy.

Dai Kun stepped on the accelerator calmly, and soon faced the group of guys who made Lucas tremble with fear.

It is indeed a hunter, but it seems to be an acquaintance.

The leader bit his cigarette and said hello: "Hi! Lucas, what, you guys came out to clear the field again?"

It seemed that he did not know that you were wanted criminals. Lucas breathed a sigh of relief, rolled down the car window and stretched out his head, and responded enthusiastically to the other party: "Hi, long time no see!"

The car slowly slid to the side of that person, she knocked on the window in front of you, smiling brightly: "Don't you say hello when you see me? Dear Lin Luo."

Your short-lived good mood is over again.

Facing this bright smile, you replied stiffly: "Hello."

So that's the real reason why you don't like it here.

① Tower of Babel: Chapter 11 of the "Bible Old Testament Genesis" records that at that time, mankind united to build a tower that hoped to lead to heaven

Burj Khalifa: formerly known as the Burj Khalifa, also known as the Dubai Tower or the Bis Burj Khalifa, is the tallest building and artificial structure in the world.

②Hunter: In the setting, not everyone has the opportunity to enter the base. The settlements of people who are rejected by the base are called "slums". The slums are chaotic, lack material conditions, and are almost powerless to resist zombies; Dissatisfied with the "temporary regime under special circumstances" of the base, they refused to surrender and formed a hunter organization without strong leadership, which was equivalent to mercenaries before the doomsday, so the hunters were not a force to contend with the base.

③From the protagonist (one) of "Galaxy Empire: Base", the base leader Saifu Harding who led the base through the first and second Seldon crisis.

The author has something to say:

Inexplicably moved by "Galaxy Empire"_(°:з」∠)_
