long night fire

——The difference between this place and places like Wild Grass City is that it is surrounded by ice fields.This made the exchange of materials between Conimis and the outside world relatively difficult, and the seasons had to be chosen. At the same time, the residents of Conimis could not freely explore the ruins of other cities in the nearby area to obtain gasoline from those places.

In this way, redundant vehicles are naturally recycled and become raw materials for other items.

With a slight bang, Shang Jianyao and Gnawa walked towards the city.

Suddenly, a figure rushed out from the second floor of a high-rise building by the road and approached Shang Jianyao.

His face is distorted, his age cannot be seen, his eyes are abnormally cloudy and bloodshot, his blond hair reaches to the vest, and the knot is obvious, and he is wearing a black and tattered cotton jacket.

This is an "unintentional person".

Shang Jianyao, who was supposed to have sensed and used his ability in advance, stared blankly, as if in a daze at a critical moment.

boom!

Gnava knocked down the "unintentional man" with a single shot.

Not only was his marksmanship extremely accurate, but he was also able to make certain predictions. The "unintentional man" had clearly completed the evasive action, but he still couldn't dodge. He was hit by a bullet in the head and shattered into a watermelon.

Plop, as the corpse fell to the ground, blood quickly soaked in.

"What's wrong with you?" Gnawa asked Shang Jianyao with concern, "Why didn't you fight back?"

"I got the ability." Shang Jianyao shared his experience quite excitedly, "The 'unintentional person' should have hidden his human consciousness at first, and then used some kind of force on me after I entered the range. ability."

"Advanced 'Mindless One'." Gnava concluded and asked, "The ability to make you sluggish?"

Shang Jianyao shook his head covered by the helmet:

"no.

"At that time, I wanted to use 'Lack of Limb Movement', but found that I forgot how to use the Awakened ability. Uh, I haven't remembered how to use it yet, but the feeling is slowly coming back."

"Forget the way to use the ability?" Gnava looked down at the "Mindless Man" corpse, "The question now is, why did he ignore my existence and directly attack you?"

"'Mindless', they have no brains, so they probably don't know how powerful intelligent people are." Shang Jianyao said with a "tsk tsk" smile, "Besides, you are still wearing the 'chameleon' armor, he might think you are a big chameleon , wait for me to settle, and then take care of you calmly."

Gnava moved his gaze to the abdomen of the corpse, and moved the neck made of metal up and down:

"No chameleon carries and uses a weapon.

"He must be starving, he hasn't found food for a long time, he is a little desperate, thinking he can avoid my attack.

"From this point of view, the other 'unintentional people' of Conimis will not be weaker than him, or in other words, there is at least one in a small group who is as strong as him."

Gnawa didn't wait for Shang Jianyao's response, because the guy had already looked forward:

"It seems to be foggy over there!"

At the end of the current street, in the depths of the main city, a faint mist filled the darkness, making the environment there closer to night.

"Go over and have a look." Shang Jianyao did as he said, Dangdang ran over.

Gnava had no time to stop it, so he could only follow closely behind.

It didn't take long for them to reach the edge of that area either relying on their equipment or by themselves.

"Could the root of the problem be in this area?" Shang Jianyao asked excitedly, while stepping directly into the mist.

In the next second, he saw a yellowish light suddenly appearing in the darkness in the distance.

A window was lit.

It seemed to be a cafe on the side of the road, and there were two people sitting in it.

"Is there anyone?" Shang Jian Yao became more and more excited, "I'll go over to say hello and make friends!"

"Be careful!" Gnava could only remind him.

He had already seen clearly what the two figures sitting by the window looked like:

One is a lady, with her back to Shang Jianyao and Gnawa, wearing a thin white dress, with golden hair that falls down like waves.

One is an elderly male, wearing a black formal suit, a white shirt, and a dark tie. He is over [-] years old, with obvious wrinkles on his face, brown eyes, and thin and white hair.

The two were drinking coffee and chatting peacefully.

Chapter 45 幻影？

Shang Jian Yao just ran a few steps towards the lighted cafe in the mist, and stopped again.

"What's the matter?" Gnava said the brakes and brakes.

Shang Jianyao looked at the two figures reflected in the window of the cafe, and said in a low voice:

"I cannot sense their human consciousness.

"I can already see them, but I still can't sense their human consciousness.

"So, after eliminating all the impossibilities, what remains is the truth no matter how absurd it is.

"They're ghosts..."

Gnava replied pertinently:

"In this environment, if it's just a ghost, it's not too dangerous."

"Do you look down on ghosts?" Shang saw Yao dissatisfied, "Don't look at Xiaohong's mouth is hard every time, but she is actually very scared!"

"What I mean is that compared to other situations, ghosts are less dangerous. At least, they are definitely weaker than the incarnated body that has been sleeping for years." Gnava fully expressed his opinion.

Shang Jianyao skipped this topic, looked at the only light in the dimness and said:

"Whether it is a ghost or not, you have to ask to be sure.

"I went to say hello and make friends according to the original plan."

Gnawa originally wanted to say that we didn't have such an original plan, but Shang Jianyao had already taken a step forward, walking into the depths of the faint mist.

The yellowish light of the roadside cafes is like a lighthouse guiding pedestrians in a dark environment.

Gnawa was ready to fight, and formed an angle with Shang Jianyao, heading towards the cafe.

It was extremely quiet around, not even the sound of the wind.

Soon, Shang Jianyao, wearing a military exoskeleton device, arrived at his destination.

The decoration of the cafe is very old-world classical, with thick frosted glass above the heavy brown wooden door.

After controlling the reckless one, Shang Jianyao didn't push the door open in a hurry, walked directly to the window, and waved at the man and woman:

"Hi everybody!"

He warmly greeted in Honghe language.

Whether it was the lady with long blond hair and a white dress, or the old man in a formal suit with brown eyes, they ignored his performance and continued to chat about their own topics while drinking coffee that emitted a little steam.

They didn't seem to see Shang Jianyao's waving and heard his greetings at all.

"The sound insulation effect is so good?" Shang Jian Yao tilted his body and put his ear to the glass window, trying to hear what the two of them were talking about inside.

But he heard nothing.

He widened his eyes again, looking at the scene inside, only to find that only the part of the cafe near the window was illuminated by lights, and it became darker and darker as he went in, until there was no light.

In this part of the illuminated area, there are four or five tables, and there are only two guests.

"It's a bit weird." It was Gnava who made the evaluation.

Shang Jian Yao Ning nodded:

"It seems that the only way to find the problem is to go in."

"Is there a node that senses the 'new world'?" Gnava asked for confirmation.

"No." Shang Jian Yao shook his head, walked to the heavy brown wooden door, and stretched out his right hand.

With the assistance of the military exoskeleton device, he easily opened the door.

Then, with a very strong desire to perform, he shouted into it:

"Check the water meter!

"Give me a cup of coffee by the way."

No one responded to him.

Shang Jianyao walked into the cafe, and immediately set his sights on the part of the area that was not covered by lights.

There was almost no light, and all kinds of sundries were piled up there, as if a group of monsters were being raised in the dark.

"It's not like a cafe..." Shang Jianyao, who was assisted by a night vision device, didn't hide his opinion.

"Indeed." Gnava agreed.

He felt that the unlit places were more like abandoned shops.

Valuable items and working cabinets have been removed, leaving only a messy pile of things.

"The problem is the part with the light?" Shang saw that one arm of Yao was paralyzed, and the other was holding a "Berserker" assault rifle, unable to rub his chin.

He and Gnava turned their gazes to the window at the same time.

The man and woman were still chatting, but no sound came out.

Moreover, they did not respond to the entry of Shang Jianyao and Gnawa.

"Two!" Shang Jianyao shouted, with a friendly attitude.

No one paid him any attention.

He walked towards the table by the window step by step.

As the distance got closer and the angle changed, he saw clearly what the lady who turned her back to him and Gnava looked like:

She has good features, thin cheeks, sea-like blue eyes, and a little crow's feet around the corners of her eyes. She looks about 40 years old.

At this moment, she was sitting there in a very relaxed state, taking a sip of coffee from time to time, as if she was fully enjoying her free time.

It can be seen that she often does this, with a certain intellectual and elegant temperament.

And the left hand of the male old man opposite her has been shaking uncontrollably, which is obviously not normal for his left arm, left body and left leg. Even if there is support, it still looks trembling.

Shang Jianyao greeted again in gray dialect, but still did not get a response.

Not discouraged, he persevered in using the few dialects he knew, and moved a few steps closer to the coffee table.

"I can't smell the aroma of coffee." He turned his head and said to Gnava, who was guarding the door to guard against accidents.

"Phantom?" Gnava analyzed such a possibility, and then asked with confirmation, "Have you turned on the 'anti-virus filtering system' of the military exoskeleton device?"

"It must be turned on! If you enter this kind of place, what should you do if you don't turn it on and get poisoned?" Shang Jianyao replied confidently.

"Is there such a possibility that the 'anti-virus filter system' actually intercepted the aroma of coffee?" Gnava reminded.

Shang Jianyao suddenly realized:

"Yup!"

Because one hand is paralyzed, he can't perform right fist and left palm.

"Pay attention to my state, and be ready to inject me with a biological antidote at any time." Shang Jianyao yelled, and stopped the operation of the "anti-virus filtering system" without waiting for Gnawa to respond.

Then he said excitedly:

"There is a little bit of coffee aroma, but it's very weak, it's not normal, I'm almost next to them!

"What's the matter with these two people? We have been whispering for so long, and they haven't responded yet."

While speaking, Shang Jianyao gave up his grip on the "Berserker" assault rifle and let it hang down on his body.

Then, he stretched out his right palm and stretched out towards the old man who seemed to be a bit disobedient with half of his body.

No, it was the coffee cup in front of the old man.

Seeing this, Gnava gave up his dissuading words. After all, Shang Jianyao didn't directly touch the two strange figures recklessly.

"I am a person who always respects the old and loves the young. Grandpa, I think your hands and feet are not very convenient. I will help you carry the cup and feed you." words.

Those two still ignored him.

In the next second, his fingers passed through the coffee cup without touching anything.

After moving a few fingers in place, Shang Jian Yaoyin said with a little disappointment:

"phantom."
