Scarlet Dawn [Apocalypse]

When Bai Yi woke up, he had the illusion that Nine had once again used this body to fight someone else. The dizziness brought on by the hangover gnawed at his brain, and the neurons near his temples were throbbing. A slight movement of the waist down is a burst of crushing muscle pain.

The situation in the suspended car last night went through my brain like a slide show, every detail was extremely clear, Bai Yi closed his eyes in despair, raised his arms to rest on his browbones, his cheeks were so hot that they were about to burn.

Damn, he must be crazy to take the initiative to kiss Silvison for being a drunk and messy horse!

"you're awake……"

Hearing this, Captain Xiaobai froze all over during self-examination, and then sat up as if he was furious.

Si Nuo was sitting on the sofa in the bedroom holding the optical brain, looked at Bai Yi calmly, pointed at himself and said 'you', then fell back with a groan.

The action pulled a burning pain in a damaged part behind him, Bai Yi curled up in pain, gritted his teeth and took a deep breath, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he heard footsteps and stopped behind him, imagining Si Nuo said with a paralyzed face, "You really don't know the importance of following the doctor's orders."

As a result, Snow said indifferently: "Boss really loves you, and chose a posture that will not burden the psoas muscles."

Captain Xiaobai: "..."

"Get up when you wake up. I still have a lot of work to do, so I can't delay it for too long."

"Didn't you say that you will only come for regular inspections in the future?" Bai Yi asked in a muffled voice: "Didn't you just come for the inspection yesterday and come today?"

Snow squinted at him, and said, "Boss is worried about something wrong with you, so let me check."

Bai Yi: "!!!!"

Bai Yi: "How to check?"

"The conventional method is to use a penetrating speculum to check for abrasions, inflammation, and X-fluid residue." Snow pushed the glasses, and continued solemnly: "Then measure the temperature for abnormalities, although the physical fitness of the military students is not bad. , but if it is not cleaned, it is easy to cause heat."

Covering his head under the quilt, Bai Yi said desperately, "So you've finished reading it all?"

"Unfortunately, it's not me." Snow said, "After listening to me explain the precautions, Boss checked it himself."

Bai Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and got up slowly with a bird's nest on his head. Snow took a feather pillow and put it on his back, and then turned to get the medical kit. Bai Yi asked, "Why didn't I see you yesterday?"

"The first-level mutation test brought back from the last mission has the results. I went to the Central Academy of Sciences temporarily. Anyway, I won't drink alcohol when I go. It doesn't matter." Snow put on medical gloves, and then took out the medicine and syringe. , "I heard from Winnie that a dozen of them have never drunk you, I really can't tell."

Bai Yi smiled awkwardly, "I didn't drink it because I couldn't see it."

Snow tilted his head to show a puzzled expression, and Bai Yi waved his hand and asked, "Did you just say a first-level mutant?"

"On the day of the Creation Ball, our team temporarily received the task of rescuing Dr. Shirley. The one who took her away was the first-level mutant, the masked man who was speaking at the Crystal Palace." The syringe was filled with liquid, and Snow flicked the air bubbles in the needle. Signaling Bai Yi to roll up his sleeves.

"what's the result?"

This question made Bai Yi feel guilty. He has a level [-] mutant in his body, and only Silvison and Conrad should know about it. Judging from the current situation, they don't seem to plan to tell others. , I don't know how the two people who were incompatible with each other reached a consensus.

Thinking of this, Bai Yi was taken aback. What measures would the alliance take if they knew that there was a level [-] mutant waiting to be awakened inside the hive?Experiment or outright obliteration?

When the needle was pulled out of the arm, a trace of cold liquid was brought up, and Snow stared at Bai Yi in a daze for a while.

Boss explained that he couldn't talk about Bai Yi without asking. Although he was full of doubts now, the deputy captain tried his best to suppress the doubts in his heart. He turned around and took a cotton ball to wipe off the remaining medicine on the other party's skin. He noticed that the pinhole disappeared again. up.

It is impossible for ordinary human beings to have the self-healing ability of instant healing, that can only explain—Snow looked at Bai Yi again, frowned slightly, isn't he human?

Sensing a clear stare, Bai Yi raised his head, and was surprised to find that the expressionless Snow had a rare serious expression, and immediately comforted him: "Is it convenient to say? If you need to keep it secret, just pretend that I didn't ask."

"Ah? No...the above do not intend to keep it secret, especially for the military students who are about to graduate, they hope that you can carefully choose whether to accept genetic modification on the premise of knowing the truth, because the results show that the 'innovators' currently possess the technology Hundreds of years more advanced than the alliance." Snow threw the used syringes and gloves into the small nano shredder, and then continued: "This means that the risk factor for the special forces is increasing."

The theory of advanced technology has been mentioned by Claude as early as at the Paris base, Bai Yi is not surprised at all, "I want to know... what is the result of the research on mutants?"

"The Central Academy of Sciences has captured a mutated gene of the D virus, preliminarily deduced the experimental purpose of the 'innovator' from the composition of the gene chain, and combined with the mission report we provided," Snow paused for a moment, his cold gaze changed from white to white. Yi glanced at him, "As the level of mutation increases, the mutant will reduce its characteristics, and it will become more and more similar to ordinary humans, and at the same time possess powerful combat capabilities."

"Is it really possible to surpass the blood race?" Bai Yi asked.

"The data shows that the first-level mutant has reached the average level of modified weapons, which means that weapons with a low degree of gene fusion will not be an opponent at all. What's more, it says that it was born 375 years ago." Snow habitually pushed. Glasses, "so we have reason to believe that, over the years, the 'innovators' have already created new variants, and this one is clearly their outcast."

Bai Yi didn't know what to say, so he nodded silently.

Snow suddenly asked, "You probably won't give up on genetic modification, will you?"

"Of course not," Bai Yi replied with a smile, "I won't—"

"Then I hope you can give up joining our team!" Snow interrupted him and said solemnly.

Bai Yi was choked by the sudden turn of events and didn't know what to do wrong, "Do you think I..." is not qualified?He thought for a while and finally didn't ask that question, and changed his words: "Why?"

"You will become the boss's weakness, and he shouldn't have a weakness." Snow said sharply: "Of course he is also your weakness. This kind of relationship between you is not suitable for being in the same team."

Bai Yi suddenly fell silent, and Snow continued: "We are known as the strongest team in the league because of our strength. The most important thing is that everyone has no weaknesses." Walking to the door, he paused before going out, and then asked without looking back: "If Boss can't escape, will you unconditionally obey his order and evacuate alone?"

"I..." Bai Yi looked at his straight back, speechless for a moment.

"I will!" Snow said coldly, "So, I don't want someone on the team who will make the boss hesitate."

"Bye, I have seen all your training records in the military academy. If the genetic modification is successful, you will become an excellent modified weapon. You can do better in other teams without any worries. For him and yourself, please be sure consider carefully."

The door slammed shut, Bai Yi lay motionless on the pillow, Lucky jumped onto the bed and rolled to the side to lick his fingers, Bai Yi only then realized that on the wicker chair in the courtyard the evening before yesterday, Sylvison's words The meaning of 'protect yourself'.

Snow was stunned as soon as he went out, and his usually gentle and restrained face couldn't help being slightly moved. He looked at the man leaning on the railing on the second floor with a smile in his eyes, and he hesitated for a while before calling softly, "Boss..."

"You've been with me for so many years, but you've thought everything through." Silverson took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, lit it, took a deep breath, and said with a smile, "I'm very sorry, I didn't overhear."

"Boss, I..."

"Don't be nervous, Snow, you've done a good job." Silverson came over, reached out to pat Snow on the shoulder, and shook hands comfortingly, "Because I have a vice-captain like you, I can survive in a situation where I can't get out." Under such circumstances, you will be allowed to evacuate with other people without any worries."

Snow suddenly raised his head, his pupils were slightly dilated, a spot of light flickered at the bottom of his light brown eyes, his voice trembled, "But..."

The moment the eyes met, Snow's well-defended mental domain produced a turmoil, and the feedback of thoughts overflowed. Silvison easily caught the other party's unspoken words, and raised his eyebrows slightly——but I will not keep the captain, I will do it for him. You fight to the death.

"Snow, I understand your intentions, and thank you very much for thinking about me." Silverson raised the corner of his mouth and said slowly: "But have you ever thought that if he is in someone else's team and I am unlucky? An accident happened, how can you let me die with peace of mind when you are not sure about his safety?"

Snow was startled at first, and then said anxiously: "Captain, you will not die!"

Silvison pointed to the door and signaled to lower his voice. He smiled indifferently and said, "It's really not easy, so please let me live with peace of mind, is that okay?"

Snow's face was pale, and his eyes behind the crystal lenses had complex expressions. He pursed his lips, and finally took a step back, closed his military boots, made a standard alliance military salute, and bowed slightly, "Yes, Boss."

"There is no mission recently, so you should take a good rest. You may be very busy in the next period of time." Silverson waved his hand and said, "Go back early."

"Yes, Boss..."

After Snow left, Silverson stubbed out his cigarette, and when he opened the door, he saw Bai Yi hugging Lucky in a daze.

Hearing the doorbell, Bai Yi looked up and said dryly, "Morning, don't you want to go out?"

Sure enough, he was still affected, the major general smiled inwardly, walked over and sat down next to the bed, reached out and clasped the back of Bai Yi's head, and pulled him over for a deep kiss.

Lucky yelped as he was sandwiched between the two, which ruined the atmosphere.

Moments later, Sylvison smiled and said, "I'm back, and the sun will set again in an hour. It seems that you were really exhausted last night."

Captain Xiaobai: "..."

Is this showing off?This is definitely showing off!Damn, until you are satisfied, how did you say such stupid words yesterday? !

Silverson read his thoughts and didn't break them down, but said, "Get up and take you out."

"Still going out?" Bai Yi looked at him strangely, "Go...where?"

In fact, what Captain Xiaobai really wants to ask is that you can't still drive, right?

"As promised before, I will take you out."

Silvison went to the closet and took a random set of clothes and threw it over. When he turned around and saw Bai Yi with a dazed face, the major general sighed helplessly and said, "Dear Bye, you must not know what a date is, right?"

Bai Yi, who had never dated before, said that he really didn't understand, let alone what there is to do when two men get together!

Major General Hill, who pretended to know what a date is, said, "I've been thinking for the past two days that there really isn't much to visit in the hive, so let's go out and kill zombies?"

Bai Yi regained his energy immediately, and was so excited that he endured the pain in his back and got up to change his clothes, "Take Lucky with you?"

Silverson thought about it, and said, "I will kill it if it bites or is bitten."

"Then take it with you." Bai Yi put on his pants and jumped off the bed, "I don't believe my dog ​​can be so stupid."

Special operations headquarters, apron.

Under the brilliance of the setting sun, the cyclone stirred up by the propellers blew away the dust and fallen leaves, and the small aircraft lifted off smoothly, and then accelerated suddenly after reaching the predetermined altitude.

Bai Yi was lying on the co-pilot's seat overlooking the beehive street view outside the porthole, with hundreds of dashboards behind him constantly changing, Silvison skillfully pulled down the joystick, and his eyes behind the sunglasses glanced at Bai Yi lightly, asking Said: "Where do you want to kill?"

The aircraft drove into the isolated black cavity, the street view outside the window disappeared, and the surroundings suddenly went dark, leaving only the bright light emitted by the instrument.

Bai Yi sat down again, hugged the shivering Lucky into his arms and smoothed his hair, and said, "You decide."

The moment he rushed out of the black cavity, the fiery red sunset made Bai Yi almost unable to open his eyes. He stretched out his hands to cover his eyes, but he couldn't help looking through his fingers at the scene that was truly created by nature.

The afterglow spread along the forest and sea, and hundreds of years of changes have obliterated the characteristics of the land. He couldn't even tell which continent the land under his feet belonged to.

The killings in the two lifetimes have intensified in the last days. He looked down at his palm and said suddenly, "Hill, I'm a little tired. Let's...not kill."

Silverson just asked, "Where are you going?"

Bai Yi closed his eyes, recalled quietly, and after a while, he said, "Go home."

Then he reported a coordinate to Silverson.
