Above the Ruins [End Times]

Ling Mo sobered up a lot.

An abnormal blush appeared on Leng Mo's cheeks, and his body also exuded incredible heat. He lifted his cold hand to his forehead, and the temperature was frighteningly high.Ling Mo slightly parted his white lips, exhaling a scorching breath.There is a vague guess in my heart.

The little boy stopped, raised his head and looked aside.

"Really bad……"

"Really bad……"

Za Yu leaned against the service desk and watched the woman in black comfort the crying baby, muttering softly with her mouth curled up.

After Lengmo left, the baby started crying, no matter how coaxed by the woman in black, the baby didn't stop, tears rolled out, the little baby's eyes were red soon, and he was full of anger The crying also turned into sobbing.

"Hey, baby, don't cry, don't cry." The woman in black just held the statue carved out of rotten wood to coax the baby, her tone was very gentle.

"Cut, it's just this little thing... that's all." Za Yu sneered rather arrogantly, squinting at the little baby who was slowly being coaxed to silence, sleepy and tired, so he closed his eyes and slept on the side Look, spit.

"Why are you so gentle. This little thing..." The brown-haired boy stretched out his finger to poke the baby's pink and tender cheek, and unexpectedly found that the hand felt good. Clutching his fingers, he jumped up.

"This little thing bites! He bit me! He bit me!" Blood was slowly oozing out from Za Yu's fingers.

The woman in black was writing furiously on the parchment, and she didn't raise her head when she heard Za Yu's words: "Don't be silly, Za Yu, he's just a baby, he hasn't even grown his teeth yet, how could he bite you?"

"What I said is true!" The other hand caressed the injured finger, and the bitten wound healed after a faint luminescence. Za Yu lowered his head to look at the little baby, only to find that the child was wide open. A pair of blue eyes looked at him, confused and ignorant.But Za Yu suddenly felt a coldness rising from his back along his spine.

Gathering his mind, Za Yu gritted his teeth, and stretched out his hand to break the baby's mouth, causing the baby to waving its arms and screaming.

"Za Yu, what are you doing!" The woman in black quickly went to stop Za Yu, grabbed Za Yu's hand and pulled him away, and then went to check the baby's status in awe.

Za Yu was pushed aside, watching the woman in black carefully pinch the baby's gums to see if he was injured, and finally picked up the baby and shook it gently, drooping her eyelids in silence.

Nothing.

There are no teeth in the baby's gums, so it is impossible for the young gums to bite his skin.

However, he was really hurt.And that coldness, that feeling of being stared at by something dangerous...

Za Yu wanted to kill the child.

It's dangerous, this kid is definitely dangerous.

Especially... This little baby was brought by Leng Mo, which made Za Yu feel uneasy, always feeling uneasy that what he longed for would be taken away.

"Za Yu!" The woman in black frowned and scolded the brown-haired boy, waking him up. "What are you thinking that you shouldn't be thinking? This baby has special abilities, and you can't hurt them."

"...Ah?" Suddenly realizing that his killing intent was so obvious, Za Yu quickly put on an innocent smile, "Sister, what are you talking about, this child is so cute, I can't even like it in time, can't I?" ?And taking this child to the next level can also bring more resources to this branch. In terms of emotion and reason, I have no reason to hurt him."

"It's better as you said." The woman in black sighed deeply.

The little baby blinked his eyes, pursed his lips and made a puffing sound.Puff, puff.To Za Yu's ears, it was like laughing at him.

Anger rose in the brown-haired boy's heart. Seeing the unattractive look of the woman in black looking at him, he gritted his teeth and swallowed it in his mouth, swallowing the breath.

It's terrible!

It's really, really bad...

Huddled in the corner of the alley, Leng Mo thought in a daze.

The body temperature was frighteningly high, Lenmo's face was reddish, but his lips were white and chapped. He opened his mouth slightly, panting with difficulty.

Failed.

When he realized something was wrong, Leng Mo had already made a decision, and also carried out the action of "to steal the serum".There is only one reason that can make the human beings of the second civilization appear in such a state as Lengmo, and that is poison, the toxin from the mutant beast.

The mutated beasts are the existences that struggled to survive and reproduce in the midst of the people of the First Civilization's wars, which caused irreparable damage and pollution to the world.

But the price of surviving is also huge, perhaps only a little better than human beings. The creatures that survived from prehistoric times, the new lives born from the ruins, and the continuation of those races have already undergone various irreversible changes. Terrible mutation.

Among them, the poison in the body is the most important point.

Only serum can relieve and treat the toxins that invade the human body.Developed for ordinary people who are valued by capable people, it is the only way for people—ordinary people to fight against mutant animal toxins.

He was negligent and forgot the existence of toxins.Therefore, he was not able to steal the serum, and he died here because of the poison of the mutant dog.

"Whoosh..."

So sad.

Breathing heavily, with cold hands and feet, Leng Mo tried his best to hold himself together.He lowered his eyes, fighting back the feeling of wanting to vomit.

Leng Mo was not reconciled.

Leng Mo didn't want to die.

Hungry belly.

A life of nakedness.

Obviously, those who were so difficult survived.

Obviously, those who were so difficult survived.

I still have bread in my arms.

There are candies in my arms.

The desire to see a truly blue sky.

The desire to see the blue sky that is not polluted.

I told my adoptive father, the desire to survive.

But, so tired.

Leng Mo felt so tired.

Even if not reconciled.

Even if you don't want to die.

Lengmo's eyelids still drooped slowly.

Take a break.take a break.

Take a little... rest...

【06. Palm】

Throwing the quill on the table, the woman in black let out a long sigh of relief.Taking out the seal solemnly stored in the depths of the counter, stamping on the parchment full of beautiful characters, the woman in black rolled up the parchment and stuffed it into her arms.

"Za Yu, I will take this child to the higher-level power institute, you stay here and take good care of your family."

"Wait, sister, are you going to take this little thing with you now?" Za Yu's eyes widened slightly, pointing at the little baby placed on the service desk.If the little thing was taken away like this, how could he kill the baby?Just let this child get more resources to grow up?What a joke!

"Yes, I have to take him away." The woman in black lovingly reached out and touched the plum blossom marks on the baby's brows, causing the baby's cheeks to puff up, "The child brought by Lengmo is a bit special. Our division What is not suitable for this child, he deserves a higher treatment."

"Is there anything we can't provide? I don't think there is anything inappropriate!" The words of the woman in black gave Za Yu a sense of crisis, and he even slammed the table and stood up.

The woman in black sighed, she raised her eyes and looked straight at Za Yu: "Look, even if it's just you, you have such a big reaction. What's more, this child is not something our small branch can raise. worth it."

Almost a unique ability, simply the darling of the world.I really don't know how Leng Mo met this child.

I'm sure the folks at HQ will be happy to have found him—the kid.Staying behind is just a disaster for the branch that is unable to protect this child.And why didn't she make such a decision to prevent her younger brother from doing something irreversible.

"I..." Za Yu knew he had made a slip of the tongue, he choked up, "I'm just... I'm just a little worried. No, why don't you let me go together."

There are large tracts of barren land between every city-the settlement of human beings. Those places called wilderness hinder people's mutual communication, and at the same time, they are also the best habitat for mutant beasts.Its danger is self-evident.

"There's nothing to worry about." With a reassuring gentle smile on her face, the woman in black raised her hand to touch Zayu's head, "Listen to me, this branch of the power office can't let the skinny guy Stay here alone, you have to watch him here, you know?"

"But--"

"Hey, where are you going? Little girl?" The voice was as sharp as fingernails on frosted glass, and the thin man with bloodshot eyes came out of the compartment inside the supernatural power facility.

"I don't need to report to you where I'm going, right? Slender man, I just went out once with the boss of the research department. You didn't complete the task and you became like this ghost?" The woman in black frowned. , subconsciously used his body to protect the baby in front of him.

"He, puff - woo, woo, woo, woo!" The originally quiet baby suddenly started crying, turning the actions of the woman in black into useless efforts.The little baby waved its short pink arms, and its little face wrinkled into a wretched ball.At the same time, on the other side, Leng Mo was sliding down the wall, curling himself up.

The strong uneasiness made the little baby flustered ignorantly, not because of the thin man, but because of other things
