city ​​of the end

Chapter 35 Activation

That dazzling brilliance seems to be a lighthouse guiding civilization forward in the darkness.

The beam of light that soared into the sky dispelled the darkness, and even the searchlights seemed to be unable to compare with such light. Not only that, in the area covered by the beam of light, the mutant creatures and zombies that were attacking madly suddenly changed their temper and started to move quickly. rapid retreat.The machine gunner didn't even have time to replace the second magazine, and those monsters who were not afraid of death quietly turned around and quickly disappeared into the depths of darkness.

This is a significant function of the overlay area. In the core area of ​​the overlay area, most zombies and mutants on the wasteland will instinctively choose to avoid it. This is why humans can survive tens of thousands of times more zombies and mutants One of the reasons to survive surrounded by monsters.

Of course, this kind of amulet is not completely reliable. The node can expel most monsters and zombies, but it has no effect on familiars and humans.Moreover, some powerful high-level mutants and zombie leaders can also ignore the expulsion ability of low-level cores.

But anyway... at least it's a start.

Fei Lun withdrew his gaze from the beam of light, and then sighed imperceptibly.The Blackstone Group has fully activated the node, and as long as there are no major problems, they should be able to start formally exploring and rebuilding the city ruins with this as the center.But here is no better than the wilderness, as if lighting a fire in the forest will disperse some wild animals, but it will attract more terrifying animals.Although under the suppression and dispersion of the core area, most mutant creatures should not have the courage to enter this area, but it is hard to say what will happen to those powerful beings... Thinking of this, Fei Lun couldn't help turning his head, looking Towards the dark city shadows in the distance.

In that darkness, what kind of monsters are lurking?
Forget it, it has nothing to do with me anyway.

Thinking of this, Fei Lun stretched out his hand, pulled the brim of his hat, and then planned to leave.

"commander!!"

At this moment, Ai Luka's voice came again, and Fei Lun turned his head to look, and saw Ai Luka and Chris running out of the tent with Krona quickly, and came to his side.

"I'm not your commander anymore, is there anything else?"

"that…………"

Hearing Fei Lun's words, Aluka hesitated for a moment. She glanced at Chrissy first, then at Krona, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, and then saw the girl suddenly opened her eyes , looking towards Faerun.

"Please allow us to continue fighting for you!"

"What's the reason?"

"Hey?"

"I really can't figure out what is the point of you three girls giving up a stable life and choosing to risk your life. You are not the group of dumb-witted young ladies in the upper class of District [-] who have been watching the prince save the princess since birth I grew up in fairy tales, wishing that a giant dragon would take them hostage the next day. I have read your records, you were born and raised in the wilderness, and you have experienced many battles. In fact, you also The price has already been paid for this... so I don't understand why you guys have made such a decision."

Although Fei Lun still had a soft smile on his face, Ai Luka felt that his eyes did not fluctuate at all, as if the person in front of him was just a dead thing, and he didn't need to pay special attention to it at all. Same.This sense of frustration made Ailuka take a step back. Indeed, what Ferran said made sense.They grew up in the wilderness since they were young. They yearn for a warm, comfortable and safe home more than anyone else. If everything is really like what Fei Lun said, then they don't have any extravagant wishes at all. Isn't it their bright future? expected?

And at this moment, Ai Luka felt that Chris standing next to her stretched out her hand and gently shook her palm. She turned her head and looked at her taciturn sister, then gritted her teeth , continued to look at Fei Lun and said.

"Indeed, as you said, Commander. We hope to live a peaceful life, but...we are also very clear that we are not qualified to have such a life. Because we are too weak, too weak. Even if we live a life like this, if we can only linger on like this, then our ending will not be better than dying in the wilderness to feed wild dogs. We need strength, and we hope to get stronger power, because only in this way can we protect ourselves and everything we want..."

"So you came to find me?"

"Yes... Commander..."

"I'm very glad that you can realize this, but unfortunately, your strength is indeed very weak. Frankly speaking, even if I accept you, it will not do me any good. Moreover, you should be very clear, During the battle, you will only hold me back."

Fei Lun's smile was still so elegant, and his voice was still so soft, as if he was comforting his lover.But his sharp words were like a sharp knife, piercing into Iluka's chest, and then pulled out again, making the girl's complexion involuntarily turn pale and red.But Ai Luka did not choose to back down because of this, she gritted her teeth suddenly, and spoke again.

"...I, we will work hard!!"

"Oh?"

"Not only in battle, we will work hard to make ourselves stronger, and...we are willing to obey all orders of the commander, no matter what you want us to do!!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Fei Lun's eyes slightly opened, and a strange light flashed through his eyes.Seeing Feilun's expression, Delin, who had been standing silently next to him, opened her mouth to say something, but looking at Eluka and others who looked serious, the cat-eared maid just opened her mouth, and then He sighed helplessly and said nothing.

"Really anything?"

"Yes, anything is fine!"

Of course, Iluka would not be stupid to not know the meaning of this sentence, but she still nodded vigorously.

"It doesn't matter if it's me or sister Chris...but, as for Krona...she's still young..."

"I, I'm fine......!!"

At this moment, Kurona timidly raised her hands and looked at Faerun pitifully.

"Kulona can bear it, no matter how rough it is, no matter how painful it will be, Krona can endure it...!"

"very good."

Hearing this, Fei Lun narrowed his eyes again and smiled as usual.

"Since you are mentally prepared in this way, I won't say anything more...Delin, take that out."

"Yes, Master."

Hearing Fei Lun's order, Delin sighed helplessly again, then stretched out her hand, took out three test tube-like objects from the suitcase of the Blackstone Group that she had just taken, and handed them to Fei Lun. Seeing this scene, the three sisters were also a little dazed.

"This is……………"

"Although your determination is commendable, your strength is still too weak. This is the energy chip I asked the Blackstone Group for. You can absorb this energy, and then improve your ability level. At least... this will make you become more powerful. It has to be useful."

"Yes, Commander!"

As ability users, it is impossible for Ailuka and the others to be ignorant of the existence of energy chips, and, as residents of the wilderness, they themselves have collected these energy chips.It's just that the output of energy chips is very low, so over the years, Ailuka and others have only collected two or three chips.Looking at the ten energy chips in their hands, and feeling the energy aura emanating from them, the three of them were very excited.

"Commander, we will definitely work hard and won't let you down!"

"I hope so... By the way, I advise you to start absorbing it now."

"Hey?"

Ai Luka couldn't help being taken aback by what Fei Lun said.

"why?"

"It's simple."

Answering Eluka's question, Feren once again looked at the small building in front of him and the node light pillar rising into the sky.

"I don't think it'll be long before we're going to be in trouble."

Then, Phelan opened his mouth to answer.
