The sound of high heels gradually faded away in the corridor.

The small room regained its calm, occasionally one or two high-pitched moans full of joy came in through the cracks in the door and windows, and nothing could stop it.

Lin Luoyi and Huo Xishan were still standing at the door, looking at me and you as before.

"That..." A few seconds later, Lin Luoyi couldn't help it. He pretended that he was not guilty at all, trying to resolve the embarrassment, "Although the sound insulation is not good, the bed seems to be quite clean, and it looks Very soft."

"Really, I'll give it a try." Huo Xishan smiled, walked over and sat down beside the bed lightly, the soft bed was sunken down, and there were a few ambiguous folds on the snow-white sheets.Huo Xishan supported the side with one hand, but patted the empty space with the other hand, and said to Lin Luoyi, "Indeed, come and sit."

"Ok?"

"Sit down, rest for a while, aren't you tired after walking for so long?"

"Oh, alright."

Lin Luoyi didn't know why she was a little nervous, and sat next to the bed tremblingly.

Huo Xishan couldn't help laughing, and suddenly moved closer, and whispered in his ear, "Do you know that you are like a student who made a mistake and was called to the office, and you can't even sit on a chair. Am I that scary?"

His tone was very soft, but his breathing was scorching hot. It took Lin Luoyi a lot of effort to restrain herself, not to jump up from the bed suddenly.He widened his eyes, stretched out a hand against Huo Xishan's chest and pushed him away, and said with a righteous face: "You are not scary, you are hateful - stay away from me."

"What's wrong with me?"

"It's just hateful, do you want me to say it?"

"What do you think."

"Reflect on yourself."

"Oh." Huo Xishan nodded, and finally ended the conversation of primary school students falling in love and losing their temper, and summed it up concisely: "You're shy again."

"..."

Lin Luoyi didn't know what to say, he couldn't admit that Huo Xishan was right, could he? !

Why can't he be as thick-skinned as Huo Xishan!

"Change the subject."

Taking a deep breath and calming down, Lin Luoyi decided to avoid this meaningless but very dangerous topic, and start talking about something else, such as——

"Why did you ask Walpole that question just now?"

"Ok?"

"You asked him about Gerald's situation. It shouldn't be for no reason," Lin Luoyi said seriously, with a little hesitation in his attitude, "Gerald...do you have any questions?"

Huo Xishan was silent for a moment, then suddenly fell backwards, supporting his upper body with his arms, half lying on the bed and looking up at the old ceiling with peeling walls and some yellowing.

Lin Luoyi didn't urge him, as if she knew what he was thinking.

"We may have to change our plans a little bit."

After a few minutes, Huo Xishan suddenly spoke.

"How to say?"

"Gerald Passo, I know him. Six years ago, I was injured when I was on a mission. I went to a marginal planet to recuperate and train recruits. Gerald was among the recruits. He was very active and full of energy. Vigorous, and different from other Alphas, he is not from the combat force, but the logistics department, to be precise, he is a technician responsible for developing and maintaining the armor used by special service personnel."

When it comes to battle armor, Lin Luoyi felt a little familiar. He thought for a while and almost immediately thought of something, but he kept his mouth shut and didn't say anything. He just listened quietly.

"The planet we were on at that time had just been incorporated into the Federation, and it was still in a relatively barbaric situation overall. The number of aborigines on the planet was small, but the number of Omega was surprisingly large, and to be honest, don't be angry, these Omega They all look good." At this point, Huo Xishan laughed in a low voice, as if deliberately joking with Lin Luoyi in a lively manner.

"I don't have anything to be angry about. I think I'm pretty." Lin Luoyi also smiled, but he was full of confidence at this time.

"Indeed." Huo Xishan nodded in agreement, then hesitated, "It's not an easy story, do you still want to hear it?"

"If you don't violate discipline." Lin Luoyi said, he turned his head halfway and looked down at Huo Xishan slightly, "I want to help you share a little bit, can I?"

For the next few seconds, Huo Xishan did not speak. He quietly looked at the young man in front of him, from the curly hair to the full forehead, to the gentle eyes behind the mirror frame, to the straight bridge of the nose and slightly pursed eyes. lips.

He had seen this face when he was still young. At that time, he did not expect that in the future, so far away, there would be such a day and such a moment when two people were so close and said something that had never been said to others. .

"Actually, the army is the same as the outside world. There are good people and bad people. You may have heard something similar to the garrison harassing local residents before. Although this kind of thing is clearly prohibited within the army, if someone makes a mistake, they will be severely punished. But in fact, it can't really be eradicated. A group of energetic Alphas are aggressive and conquering by nature, and most of them are at the most impulsive age. It's really hard for something to happen.

"And people themselves are also very strange. If it is in a place with the same or similar level of civilization, most people are still willing to exercise restraint and show more 'humanity', but if one side is obviously backward in civilization, advanced On the other side, there will always be someone who will immediately take off the human skin and become no different from a beast."

It was obvious that Huo Xishan's voice was flat and his mood didn't fluctuate, but Lin Luoyi felt that he was not as calm as he appeared at this time, so he couldn't help but leaned against him, putting his hand on the back of Huo Xishan's hand, and there was a smile in his eyes. Full of sincerity, like a small animal eager to comfort its owner but unable to speak, and can only express it through actions.

"The process of training new recruits is roughly the same, routine training, actual combat drills, and field confrontation in groups. Although Gerald is a logistics staff, he also has to go through these. There are four of him and his team members, and the other three are The Alpha who was ranked first in the recruit camp back then, they trusted each other and helped each other, so they set off like that. However, ten days later, the field confrontation ended, and no one in this group arrived at the designated place on time, and the other three except Gerrard Vital signs are gone and Gerrard is missing."

"...Gerald killed them?"

If it wasn't for what Huo Xishan said earlier, Lin Luoyi would never have made this speculation, but he knew from Huo Xishan's eyes that he was right.

Huo Xishan didn't answer him directly, but continued: "Afterwards, we found the battle scene and found the bodies of the three Alphas and...the pheromone residue of a strange Omega."

Lin Luoyi guessed it, and couldn't help shaking Huo Xishan's hand again.

"According to the analysis of the scene, this group should have encountered a local Omega during the field trip. This Omega may be in estrus, or it may not be. In short, the three Alphas in this group except Gerrard have different experiences. You should have the thoughts and behaviors. No one knows what happened at that time, but Gerrard, as a "minority" in this group, was not superior in physical fitness and individual quality, and finally used his teammate to repair The mechanical power arm killed those three teammates, and after that he didn't choose to report the whole thing, but took that strange Omega and stole a spaceship nearby and fled, and disappeared from sight."

It seemed that there was no need for Huo Xishan to continue talking about the matter after that.

After escaping, Gerald may have wandered for a long time, and finally heard from somewhere that the earth is a place where federal criminals can hide without worrying about being hunted down, so he brought that Omega here.

Now he is the only one left, and no one has seen or even heard of an Omega beside him.

In addition, Gerald once offended a certain important person in the dungeon, and was brutally imprisoned in the terrifying Iron Madonna until he was rescued by the curious Claude, and since then he has been surviving in the pipeline.

——Why did he offend the big man?

—Where did that Omega go?

When you think about it, these answers seem obvious.

Lin Luoyi even thought more.

"The set of battle armor at the auction mentioned by the two action teams..."

"Have you also thought about it? I felt a little strange before. Looking at the entire Federation, the technology of mechanical armor is not mature. Only a few elite troops are partially equipped with armor, so it is impossible to flow out, let alone inflow." Earth. If my guess is correct, it should be the Destroyer, an individual power armor that Gerald started researching before he disappeared. The design of this armor is very rough, and many reasonable optimizations have been abandoned. The only The design concept and design direction are when the manipulator is deeply surrounded by the enemy, to bring maximum damage to the enemy in a way of dying together. It sounds backward and has nothing to boast about, but Gerald is a genius "Huo Xishan smiled, there seemed to be relief in the smile, but it was more bitter, "I have read the data of 'Destroyer', if this set of armor is really in accordance with the standard of 'Destroyer' After the auction starts tomorrow night, a set of battle armor is enough to make the entire dungeon disappear."

Lin Luoyi didn't know what to say for a while.

He couldn't imagine how the injured Gerald collected materials bit by bit in this barren and extremely resource-poor place all these years, and pieced together to make that set of armor, and he couldn't imagine how it was just a set of armor. The self-destruction and self-explosion of a set of armor can cause such a large-scale destruction, and it is even more unwilling to think about what the purpose of Gerald's creation of this armor is.

Destroy the entire dungeon to avenge someone?For the missing Omega?What happened to that Omega and him after they came here?

All these Lin Luoyi didn't want to ask, and couldn't bear to ask.

"Then what should we do?" He was thinking, even a little anxious, "Why don't you go to Gerrard now, since you know him well, and you know the ins and outs of the past, you can persuade him?"

Huo Xishan said, "The cause of what happened back then was not his fault, but no matter what, he did kill three comrades in arms. This alone is enough for him to go to the military * military * legal * court. He also knows it, so Besides, he had already recognized me just now. I was sure it was his after looking at the notebook in Walpole's place, but he should have recognized me before that—otherwise you thought He left early, is he really going to collect Claude's bicycle? He just made up his mind and doesn't want to see me again, and he doesn't want me to find him again."

"But if this is the case, what should we do?" Lin Luoyi asked anxiously, frowning unknowingly, her brain was running fast: "You said to change the plan...I know!"

"Huh? What do you know, let's hear it."

"No matter what, if Gerald really wants to use the 'Destroyer' to do something, then he will definitely find a way to enter the auction tomorrow to ensure that the 'Destroyer' can really start the destruction process. Our original plan was Getting close to Foot Juan and gathering intel on him has now become about staring at The Destroyer and pinning down Gerald as soon as he shows up."

Lin Luoyi said and found a new problem: "But he has seen us, so he should be vigilant. Once he sees us appearing near the 'Destroyer', he may choose not to show up."

"But this is also his only chance." Huo Xishan said, "When the armor enters the auction, it must be inspected. He has no way to tamper with it in advance. If he is concerned about us and does not take action on the night of the auction, once the armor is taken Whichever high-level person buys it, he will have no chance to get close to it, let alone start the program to destroy the entire dungeon. So even if we wait, he will definitely appear, not to mention that he only saw us..."

"But I haven't seen Yali and Valentin!" Lin Luoyi suddenly realized, "Let Yali and the others squat near the 'Destroyer' tomorrow, we will support it, and from today's point of view, Gerald's physical condition is not very good , Valentine should be able to handle it."

"Smart," Huo Xishan raised his finger and scratched his palm, "But just in case, you can control Pojiao Juan in advance, and use two prongs."

"How do you know that the person he wants to take revenge on is Juan Pojiao?" Lin Luoyi asked.

Huo Xishan didn't want to say any more, just smiled.

"Tell me, um, how sure is it?"

"Seventy percent." Huo Xishan pulled out his hand and patted him on the head instead, "Okay, I'm going to be a curious baby if I ask any more questions, it's time to rest."

Lin Luoyi pursed her lips, and suddenly lowered her body to lie in front of Huo Xishan who was half lying on her back, almost touching the tip of his nose: "Huo Xishan."

He called out softly, his eyelashes flickering, like a little butterfly that has landed, it might flap its wings and fly away at any time.

"Ok?"

Huo Xishan also stared at him without avoiding it, and the depths of his black pupils were completely relaxed and trusting.

"Don't be unhappy, it's all in the past. No matter how you say it, you can't blame you for what happened back then. Everyone is responsible for their own choices. You are just an accidental stop in their lives. You know it from a long way away. Don’t feel guilty about it.”

Huo Xishan was silent and did not speak for a long time.

The wind seemed to have stopped, and then seemed to blow again, swirling and floating the mixed sweet and greasy smell, blowing to the dark ceiling, and blowing into the deepest and softest chest cavity.

"Then what about you?" Huo Xishan asked in a low voice, his Adam's apple rolled and trembled, as if he was tense and trying to restrain himself, "What are you?"

"I, I am your terminal."

Lin Luoyi said with a smile, with a hint of complacency and shyness in his expression.Then, it seemed that his hands were numb after holding on to the same movement for too long, but it didn't seem like it was. His arms were slightly bent, and his whole body fell a little.

Two lips touch.

A most tender kiss.

Like a dream tonight.
