Thrive in Catastrophe

Must escape!

His waist was about to be broken, and the opponent's palm was pressing on his back, and he could only tremble awkwardly as the opponent came in and out.

"Give you a hint, let this body split open, so that your mind can escape."

Xiao Yan closed his eyes and clenched his fists. Even if this body was constructed by Hai Yin, he would shatter it!

The cracking sound spread from his forehead, Xiao Yan's thoughts flowed out from the gap in the body, and everything shattered in an instant, and he would no longer run away like before.The reason why Heine can follow him like a shadow is because he embeds the fragments of his thinking into his own thinking.Xiao Yan removed the debris very patiently and escaped.

"Hey! Xiao Yan! Xiao Yan, are you okay!"

Mark's voice rang in his ears, Xiao Yan abruptly interrupted the connection and took off the connector.

His whole body was covered with sweat, and his eyes were dizzy.

He Yin on the opposite side slowly opened her eyes, with a calm expression on her face, as if everything just now didn't exist.

"Xiao Yan, you look miserable! Did you suffer terribly from the trap made by the boss? No wonder! Few people can beat him..."

At this moment, Xiao Yan's legs were weak, and he didn't even know how to stand up.

Mark looked back at Heine, "Boss, you scared Xiao Yan to death!"

Heine Burton got up slowly, and walked towards Xiao Yan step by step. Xiao Yan subconsciously leaned back in the chair, and unconsciously raised his head as the other party approached.

"...for...why do you do that..."

Heine's knuckles brushed against Xiao Yan's forehead, and wiped away his cold sweat, but his cold expression could make such a gentle gesture, "When you feel that you are very safe, you won't have to fight to the death. determination."

Xiao Yan's bones were trembling, even though it was an illusion created by Heine to confuse him, the feeling of being possessed and imprisoned was as clear as it was in the real space.

"What... what's wrong?" Mark looked puzzled.

"Tell me what you learned from me."

"Everything I feel is unbelievable."

For example, the body that confines one's thinking is the real "maze" created by Heine.

"First class, you graduated."

There was no hint of dew in He Yin's eyes, and he left Xiao Yan's sight neatly just like every time he turned around in the past.

"Hey! Xiao Yan! Your face turned pale with fright. What did you see in the boss's brain?" Mark was extremely curious.

"It's nothing."

Xiao Yan's heart was beating wildly, and his blood was flowing uncontrollably.

Heine Burton had thousands of ways to tell herself what fear was, but why... this one?

"Well, it's really unexpected that the boss can let you into his brain." Mark sighed.

"Because of his strength, or because of his inaccessibility?"

Xiao Yan gave a wry smile.

Mark was silent for a moment, but decided to speak: "Do you know Lieutenant General Renaulting, the former head of the Central Academy of Sciences?"

"Of course I know! I heard that he was assassinated by the tide organization! He was posthumously named general after his death!"

Mark chuckled lightly, "The assassination by the Tide organization was all used to deceive a rookie like you. Lieutenant General Reynolden rebelled and joined the Tide organization."

"what?"

This news is tantamount to the sudden collapse of everything that Xiao Yan had dreamed of.Lieutenant General Reynolding was a pioneer in the field of science. He vigorously developed the education of Shire, which made the Central Academy of Sciences a place full of talents.Xiao Yan's father had great respect for Lieutenant General Reynolding during his lifetime.

"I can't believe it! He sent a lot of confidential research in the Central Academy of Sciences to Tide, which is like using the resources of the entire Shire to do research for Tide!"

"Why did he do this? I remember that Lieutenant General Reinolding was born in Shire! He has never left Shire in his life! How could he have anything to do with the Tide Organization!"

"So the military department sent two elites trained as blockers to sneak into the brain of the deeply hypnotized Lieutenant General Reynolding. These two people are Shen Bing and our leader."

"How is this possible? Based on the time when Lieutenant General Reynolding was assassinated, Colonel Shen Bing should have just graduated from the Central Academy of Sciences not long ago! And Heine...Colonel Burton is just a student!"

"The human brain is a scary place, and the subconscious is even more terrifying. Those who seem kind and upright have their most cruel side firmly suppressed in the subconscious, so that they can appear harmless and respected in reality. .These are illusions, and no one expresses who they really are, because they don't even know who they are."

"What happened to Shen Bing and Hai Yin?"

"I don't know...these are secrets among secrets. All we know is the result, which is that Colonel Shen Bing's neurons are damaged, and he can no longer perform tasks such as consciousness infiltration. And our leader gave up his identity as a student , applied to join the special task force. At that time, there was an uproar. They all believed that the leader’s achievements in the field of research were absolutely huge, and the rest of the life of the special forces was only ten years. Compared with his achievements...but the boss still resolutely accepted the injection of the X virus. Everyone in our unit thought...he would never enter anyone's subconscious and let anyone enter his brain again, You... broke it all."

It was only then that Xiao Yan remembered that he was trapped in the subconscious, and it was Heine who brought him out.The subconscious mind is the lowest level of consciousness, so no matter what happened there, it would be difficult for Xiao Yan to remember.

And what about his subconscious mind?Is it the same as Lieutenant General Reynolden, full of hypocritical and terrifying thoughts, but what did Hein Burton see?

"Hey, it's noon, let's eat!" Mark laughed loudly.

The restaurant in the special task force is completely different from the atmosphere in the research institute. Everyone eats in the same way as if they have been copied, completely militarized management.

And Xiao Yan finally saw Casey here, and beside Casey was Liv.

"Xiao Yan! Great to see you here!"

Casey reached out and clasped Xiao Yan's wrist. At that moment, Xiao Yan's wrist almost split.

"Kathy! Take it easy! Take it easy!"

Xiao Yan bared his teeth, and Casey hugged him tightly.

"I really miss you! I miss you every day! Now the supervision of researchers is stricter! Although they finally canceled the damn fighting training, all research is suspended!"

Casey already had a lovely face, but now she said that she missed Xiao Yan with tears in her eyes, and many people looked sideways.

Finally, Casey let Xiao Yan go.

"However, Xiao Yan, is your research still going on?"

"Continue? I can't concentrate..."

Casey sighed knowingly, and said comfortingly: "Everything will be fine. The military department has required all researchers to pass the anti-intrusion test before conducting important research. Even if the test passes, everyone still has to conduct independent research. "

"Why? Doesn't this make the research more inefficient? Originally, different people should be responsible for different parts of a project!"

"Reducing efficiency is better than stealing experimental data from each other." Casey's childish expression turned cold in an instant, "and everyone's thinking is different, and independent thinking is beneficial to the divergence of thinking. It's like maybe now I You are obviously working on the same topic, but you are going in a different direction. Without the constraints of my supervisor, you can think more freely."

"..." Xiao Yan smiled wryly.

"I know you are afraid. Indeed... I am also a little scared, but Xiao Yan, there is no kind of success that can be easily obtained without a price."

Casey stood up and leaned forward slowly, a smile appeared in her green eyes, her lips touched Xiao Yan's forehead, and she retracted it the moment Xiao Yan blinked.

"I'm going to lunch break!"

Xiao Yan's face turned red instantly, he covered his mouth and looked at Liv who was supervising Casey, Liv just smiled and left behind Casey.

"Wow, you really are... That Casey is notoriously bad-tempered! Every time I see you, I immediately become a Barbie doll?" Mark's jaw dropped.

"Hehe...hehe..." Xiao Yan smirked, his eyes unnaturally met Hai Yin who was oncoming, and his fingers trembled unconsciously.

His eyes were very cold, Xiao Yan was sure that he could clearly see the scene where Casey kissed him just now.

Leaving the restaurant, Xiao Yan was walking back to the research room, He Yin followed behind him, with a uniform pace, as if everything that happened in his brain didn't exist at all.

There are countless questions in his mind, but there are no answers.

For the whole afternoon, Xiao Yan was just fiddling with the data. Heine sat on the chair, her slender left leg resting on her right leg, and her fingers gently hooked the rim of the teacup, elegant but distant, Xiao Yan felt resentful.

Just as the day was coming to an end, Heine's voice sounded, "Connect your terminal and start your research."

This is an order, there is no room for negotiation.

But at this moment, what Xiao Yan hesitated was no longer the blocker of the tide organization, but Heine Burton.Because once he connects to the terminal, according to Major General Gordon's order, this guy will enter the outer edge of his thinking.He will never forget everything that happened when he sneaked into Heine's brain that day.

"Your brain is not such an easy place to hack."

The straightforward narration without any ups and downs in the tone inexplicably oppressed Xiao Yan's mood.

Heine has entered the system.

Xiao Yan put on the terminal connector with extreme reluctance.

"If you have any questions, you'd better ask me now."

Xiao Yan gasped, he always felt that he was completely seen through in front of Heine, and there was no room for him to hide.

Since Heine gave him the chance, he must ask all the questions. If he never pursues the answer, he knows that he will never be able to move forward.

"You once entered my subconscious."

"Yes."

"What is my subconscious mind...is it as scary as the rumors say?"

"No."

He Yin's answer was very concise, Xiao Yan knew that this guy would not say anything against his will just to make others feel better.But it wasn't a simple "yes" or "no" that he wanted to hear.

What kind of reason would he do that to Heine when he sneaked into Heine's head?Is it because some dark side of her subconscious made Hein unhappy?

"So what did you see?"

Heine was silent.

Mark felt that the atmosphere was really weird, so he took two steps back, "Hey...you guys keep talking...keep talking...I'll go to Liv's to see if she needs help..."

After speaking, Mark squeezed out the door.

"A blue ocean, a moon-white beach, or an endless wilderness, or even a whole starry sky."

Xiao Yan frowned, "Why does it sound like you entered my brain more than once?"

"Yes."

Xiao Yan was completely stunned by Hai Yin's answer.

"This...how is this possible? How did you come in?" Xiao Yan couldn't sit still.

"You often fall asleep while connected to the system. I just need to find you and enter you."

The words "into you" made Xiao Yan's heart beat faster, and he suddenly thought of his dreams and even those hallucinations, every moment he was crazy with Heine Burton... He always thought that he was the one who got off the rails, but Those were created by Heine after sneaking into his brain!

Xiao Yan suddenly realized that whether it was a dream or a hallucination, they were all connected to the terminal!Heine Burton invaded his brain!And more than once!

"Why are you doing this? Mark said that you will never enter anyone's subconscious again!"

For the first time, Xiao Yan felt that the man sitting in front of him who was indifferent to everything was very different from what he had imagined.

"Because your subconscious mind is the most reassuring place I've ever been."

"what……"

Why should I reassure you?

In the past, he was killed by zombies countless times, but now he is inexperienced in facing the tide of killers. Without X-2, he is dead!I am ashamed in front of your strength!But you said I made you feel at ease?

This man still looks like a matter of course, but his thoughts are on fire in the gloom. The sealed and airtight ice sheet is on the verge of breaking and moaning constantly. The heat from evaporation brushes over Xiao Yan's face, and something in his blood is about to bloom crazily. open.

Xiao Yan opened his mouth but was speechless. He knew that Heine was very concerned about his addiction to the X virus, but if he said that he had those delusions and those unspeakable dreams because of Heine...that is to say this Did the seemingly indifferent man have unusual feelings for him a long time ago?

"In the world of thinking, I can make you feel pain because of me, and you will clearly know that it is me who hugs you."

Xiao Yan saw himself in Heine's eyes, so clear that he was afraid.

Heine got up slowly, and came to Xiao Yan step by step. His fingers slid from the center of his eyebrows to the end of his eyebrows, and his knuckles rubbed against his nasal bone and stayed at the tip of his nose. Everything was incredibly soft.

"What I want to do can't last as long as your life."

Xiao Yan raised his head, listening to the other party's words that were almost promised in a calm tone.

"So, you must become stronger."

Xiao Yan opened his eyes and looked at the other party for a long time.

That afternoon, he kept a silly posture.

When Mark sent him back to the room, Xiao Yan still didn't wake up.

"Hey! Xiao Yan, what did the boss tell you?" Mark pushed Xiao Yan, but Xiao Yan was still in a fugue state.

"Oh..." Mark scratched his head, looking distressed.

Xiao Yan suddenly grabbed Mark, "Let me ask you! Has Colonel Burton had a blood test recently? How active is the X virus in his body!"

"Ah..." Mark didn't expect Xiao Yan to ask this question suddenly, and he didn't know how to react for a while, "This...maybe Maya knows."

Xiao Yan left the research room without saying a word. At this time, Maya was sitting at the desk and browsing some materials. When Xiao Yan sat in front of him, Maya couldn't help being stunned.

"Yo, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Yan's expression was very serious, and he looked at Maya with a sense of oppression in his eyes.

Maya froze for a moment, then closed the holographic image in front of her, pressed her forehead with her palm, and remained silent for a long time.Xiao Yan knew from his expression that what he was going to say must not be what he wanted to hear.

"It was Lieutenant General Ewell who did the blood test for the boss. We don't know what the results were, but the report was encrypted and no one read it except Lieutenant General Iwell and Major General Gordon. .”

Xiao Yan's fingertips trembled. Heine had at most two years left. This was a public fact in the special task forces.If his blood report is encrypted, then there is only one possibility, the X virus replicates too fast, and Heine's time is running out.

In what mood did Heine say to him, "What I want to do, but I can't last as long as your life"?

He thought that even if he was not as strong as Heine, at least they could fight side by side, but why didn't he mention anything about the blood test?

Ha...you are so stupid, Xiao Yan.

Heine Burton has always endured everything alone, even death.

"Many people want to replace him. They think that taking his place can become a myth. But the only myth is Heine Burton."

Xiao Yan lowered his head.

"We're all going to die, sooner or later."

Heine didn't ignore death, but he had already accepted death.

That's why he kisses him so hard in his head, because maybe every time will be the last time.

That night, Xiao Yan didn't sleep.He sat on the bed leaning on the pillows and left himself in the dark without turning on the light.

And Hai Yin was still sitting quietly on his sofa, it was the first time for Xiao Yan to feel a person's breathing so hard.

He realized that he hadn't thought about something so hard for a long time.

What is Heine insisting on?What did he mean by "addicted"?

None of this can offset the things he has done to himself!Even though they didn't happen in reality!I have been fucked by this guy more than once!Although none of these exist in the real world, subjectively they are all real!

Xiao Yan braced his head. In the past, if he fell asleep while playing games or listening to music, he would not take off the terminal connector at all. This gave Hein the opportunity to do whatever he wanted.

That's not fantasy!Every time I was crazily possessed by the other party, I couldn't resist and had no chance to escape, this kind of absolute control over the brain... Heine Burton was really scary.

Pressing his head firmly, Xiao Yan had the urge to hit the wall.

What "I'm addicted to you"!He was the only one who could be addicted to the X virus, but Heine Burton said that he was addicted to him as a researcher!At that time, he had an ordinary appearance, almost zero combat effectiveness, idleness, and no business. Why would Heine Burton say such things that people are constantly pondering but are not sure of the answer?

Xiao Yan's fingers touched his lips subconsciously.

He has always been unable to forget his kiss, Xiao Yan closed his eyes, this man was so strong and cold, but the heat between his lips almost evaporated his blood.

Maybe it's because my father, who is full of enthusiasm for research, has been thinking about it all his life, but there is no result, because it is ridiculous that an oceanographer has never seen the sea in his life.From the day his father passed away, Xiao Yan no longer felt that thinking had any meaning.

But are you willing?Xiao Yan?

Before I knew it, the whole night passed like this.

When his electronic alarm clock rang, Xiao Yan seemed to wake up from a long dream.

He got out of bed and went into the bathroom to wash up.

Heine still woke up earlier than him.

His expression didn't change much, as if everything he said to Xiao Yan yesterday was Xiao Yan's self-fantasy.

"Colonel Burton, is it true that you said yesterday that you would protect my brain?"

"Yes."

Without hesitation, his answer was as absolute as when he swung his blade.

"Then please protect me."

Xiao Yan threw the terminal connector out, and Hein caught it firmly.

From today on, he will try his best to think more than ever before.

Because time waits for no one.

Why can't you last as long as my life!It's just a joke!My life can no longer allow you to leave midway!

Closing his eyes, Xiao Yan's thoughts quickly rushed into interruption, the ever-changing data flashed in his mind, and the whole laboratory began to operate.

Mark showed a surprised expression, and countless holographic image screens flashed, and this laboratory instantly entered the ocean of data, changing rapidly.

Major General Gordon, who was playing chess in the terminal system, was suddenly interrupted by the secretary.

"report!"

"What's the matter?" Major General Gordon showed an impatient expression.

"The terminal of the sixth research room is connected at high speed! Critical load operation!"

"What? Is it the tide blockers? They actually invaded our place?" Major General Gordon stood up suddenly, and the pieces on the chessboard were scattered all over the place.

"no……"

"no?"

"After screening, intervene with ID number 1665, Second Lieutenant Xiao Yan."

Major General Gordon blinked, "He's doing research, right?"

"Yes."

"Heine will monitor his brain. I don't believe anyone else can sneak in. Then why did you come in and tell me this nonsense?"

"But the energy supply of the laboratory..."

Major General Gordon chuckled, "Then ask the Academy of Sciences to provide another energy reactor."
