After Crimson Moon incident happened, many mysterious and unknown changes occurred in the wilderness.
The madmen who once caused the collapse of human civilization and order were only a small part of them, because when people reacted from the Beginning being frightened by madmen and began to understand and master the characteristics of these madmen, they discovered...
... These madmen are just madmen!
However, some unexplainable phenomena, the "Crimson Moon alien species" that only exist in ghost stories in the wilderness, and the existence of some strange restricted areas whose authenticity is unknown, and whose principles cannot be analyzed, have become the greatest dangers in the wilderness.
In the final analysis, this feeling of danger comes from the vastness of the wilderness and the insignificance of human beings' own exploration capabilities.
No matter what, traveling in the wilderness requires constant vigilance. This is the first rule.
Of course, this is under normal circumstances...
People like Lu Xin and Gecko, who are surrounded by three special operations teams, a reserve army, and escorted by two helicopters in the air, are rushing from the wilderness. Let alone being vigilant, there is no problem even if they sleep in the car...
Lu Xin had a good sleep in the car.
The matter with the Knights has been resolved, and the things they took away have been recovered. My father has already vented his anger once.
This made Lu Xin feel unprecedentedly relaxed at this time.
Maybe Gecko is also homesick and eager to return to Qinggang City.
After only spending a day and a half on the road, we arrived at the door of Satellite City No. 2 in the early morning of the third day.
City Patrol Army on the high wall had been notified in advance. When Steel Monster's figure appeared in the spotlight range in front of the west gate of the city, the steel suspension bridge had been slowly lowered. You could see that someone was waiting on the other side of the bridge.
Chen Jing was wearing a well-fitting military uniform, which made her already slender and slim figure look even more heroic. She is the type who is extremely beautiful, but people dare not look directly at her, so whether it is Gecko or Lu Xin, they only dare to look at her secretly.
"It only took four days, thirteen hours and fifty-four minutes from the time you set off to the time you came back!"
Looking at Lu Xin walking out of the car, Chen Jing glanced at the watch in his hand. Although his face was still as capable as usual, he seemed to be smiling a little, "It's less than half the time you originally expected. I think when this news reaches the ears of those professors, they will quarrel with each other and pull each other's hair over what level you should be assigned."
"It's so cruel..."
Lu Xin Thought of the hair volume of those professors, and immediately understood the cruelty of their quarrel.
"Okay, let's report on the progress of the mission!"
Chen Jing After joking, he became more serious, asked seriously with a straight face.
Lu Xin was originally thinking of telling her a joke, but he didn't expect her leadership skills to be so good, so he subconsciously became more serious and said, "There are seven knights in the city to attack, three ability users and four mercenaries. Now three ability users have been eliminated, two have been eliminated, and the other one should have been escorted back, right?"
"Four mercenaries, three died..."
"The paintings that were stolen by them have been taken back, and five motorcycles were also seized..."
"..."
Chen Jing frowned slightly and said, "Are you sure those two ability users are dead?"
"OK."
Lu Xin nodded and said, "There are no dead ones left."
Chen Jing raised his eyebrows slightly.
Lu Xin thought about it and knew that she, and Special Purity Department behind her, must be very concerned about the details of her mission at this time.
On the way back, he actually thought about it several times in his mind.
He slowly said, "Of these three ability users, one is Puppet-type. I caught up with Blackwater Town..."
Chen Jing said, "Go back and rest first."
Lu Xin was startled for a moment. "?"
Chen Jing looked at Lu Xin's surprised eyes, smiled, and said, "There is no rush to report on the mission. If you can come back, or in other words, can come back safely, it is already a good result. Take a two-day rest first, and there will be an opportunity to report on the mission."
Lu Xin was slightly surprised, as if he didn't expect Chen Jing to be so relieved about him.
And this kind of reassurance, although it is a small thing, makes people feel very comfortable.
"Oh my, is this still our Colonel Chen who regards work as more important than life?"
In the car on one side, Gecko was dragging the mercenary he captured alive, and smiled from a distance, "The one who was captured alive is here. Let me tell you, there are seven people in the knights this time. Captain, I am Brother Lu, three were solved, and I solved four by myself, and captured one alive, so my contribution is not small, Team Leader Chen The thing about Linda you mentioned..."
"I will notify her, please wait patiently for two days."
Chen Jing turned to look at Gecko with a faint smile on his face.
"Wait two days?"
Gecko was obviously stunned for a moment. "You haven't told her yet?"
"I wasn't sure if I needed to tell her before."
Chen Jing smiled and said, "It's a surprise for us that you can come back alive."
Gecko: "..."
His expression showed a smile for a moment, then put it away again. After a while, he suddenly shuddered.
"Okay."
Chen Jing took the silver suitcase handed over by Lu Xin and said to Lu Xin and Gecko: "The vehicles to take you back have been arranged. The things you brought back will be escorted to Research Institute by me. There will also be dedicated personnel to handle the loss and cleanup of the materials."
"You two have three days off, so you can think about how to write this mission report."
"Keep the phone open and I'll let you know if anything happens."
"..."
Seeing that she had arranged everything as usual, Lu Xin and Gecko could only answer at the same time, "Yes!"
"Okay."
Chen Jing took a pair of handcuffs and cuffed the silver suitcase to his wrists. Then, escorted by two teams wearing black protective suits, he got into a car and left in a hurry.
Other officers came over and put the handcuffs and shackles on Gecko's body again. Then, after asking Lu Xin and Gecko if they had left anything in the car, they drove away Steel Monster.
Lu Xin and Gecko felt that all the pressure was relieved at once.
When they sat in the jeep, they looked at each other and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Mr. Single Soldier, Mr. Gecko, where are you going?"
The driver was still the bald driver with an indifferent expression on his face.
But now, his tone seems to be more respectful than before.
"Blue Ocean..."
Gecko immediately shouted loudly, "This journey scared me to death, I have to relax..."
Lu Xin suddenly looked at Gecko in surprise.
Gecko was slightly dumbfounded, then smiled broadly and encouraged, "Brother Lu Aren't you going? There is so much pressure along the way. If you don't relax a bit, what will happen if you lose control in the future? Don't worry, thanks to your care along the way, I will take care of the expenses tonight..."
Lu Xin's expression suddenly changed and he was greatly moved.
But after thinking carefully for a while, he still smiled and shook his head, saying, "Send him off first."
Forty minutes later, the car stopped in front of the old building.
Lu Xin got out of the car and said to the driver, "Thank you!"
Thinking about the speed of Gecko when he rushed into Blue Ocean, he still had a little smile on his face.
It can be seen that Gecko really likes this.
However, after carrying out such a tense and dangerous mission, it is really good to have such a hobby to relax. After all, I think back to the various battles and mysteries I experienced during the period from leaving the city four days ago to coming back today...
... He couldn't help but tremble slightly, thinking, "It's so dangerous!"
Unfortunately, after all, I am different from Gecko, and my way of relieving stress is also different.
He can relieve stress in this way, but he is not very good at it.
This is not a matter of who is treating the guests. No matter who the guests are, Lu Xin feels a little distressed...
Let's go upstairs and have dinner with our family first.
In recent years, this is the longest separation from my family.
Although it is said that his father's behavior during the final separation made the relationship between the family members somewhat tense, and it also made Lu Xin realize that even if he returned home this time, the scene he faced might not be as warm and cozy as before...
With a sigh that no one could hear, Lu Xin began to walk towards the dark and deep old apartment building.
Just as he was about to enter the old building, the satellite phone suddenly rang.
"Mr. Single Soldier, I heard you are back..."
The caller was Han Bing, his voice was soft and very nice.
"Yes, you know?"
Lu Xin stopped in front of the apartment building and said with a smile.
"I knew it as soon as you came back. I felt that your work was almost done, so I gave you a call."
Han Bing smiled and said, "Congratulations, you completed the mission very well this time."
"No, no..."
Lu Xin replied with a smile and sat down on the next step, "I'm just trying my best."
"If everyone is willing to do their part, the construction of our city will definitely be much better..."
Han Bing smiled, insisted on praising Lu Xin, and then said, "Also, while you were out of the city, I have helped you organize and summarize the previous tasks and rewards. Just waiting for your nod, all the rewards should be..."
"Wait..."
Lu Xin hurriedly stopped her, then took out a half-smoked cigar and slowly lit it. "Tell me one by one!"
"Okay..."
Han Bing seemed to suddenly understand what Lu Xin meant and laughed happily.
Then her voice on the other end of the phone began to become very serious, and she said slowly, "Mr. Shan Bing reported the painting that the Xu family father and daughter had hidden privately. For us Special Purity Department, this is also an act worth encouraging. We are rewarded with 10,000 yuan..."
"When the Rose Flower incident spread, Mr. Shan Bing prevented the spread of Wanzhong Mall's contaminated people, and the reward was 100,000."
"The Mental Pollution bomb under the south wall of Satellite City No. 2 is rated as a level two hazard, and the reward is 300,000..."
"You are training at the Guard Department, and your daily subsidy is two hundred. It has been going on for seven days now..."
"..."
Listening to Han Bing counting the things he had accomplished one by one, and the rewards that followed.
Lu Xin sat on the steps, holding the phone with a happy smile on his face.
Everyone is so awesome. I am very grateful. I am very grateful. Why did you break the chapter? As the author of Qidian, I am the first to object to breaking the chapter and firmly stand in the same camp as the readers... Can this attitude be counted again?
