world of ruin

"After clearing, prepare to launch crystal bombs."

"Crystal bomb launch--"

"Countdown--"

“--9、8、7--2、1！”

"emission!"

The crystal bullet was fired from the crystal cannon, and a huge mushroom cloud bloomed in Y city.

Dark clouds shrouded City Y and continued to linger.The people standing on the mountain looked at the ruined city, and the atmosphere was gloomy.

City Y is seriously polluted, and the concentration of zombies is a huge hidden danger of the zombie tide.

Due to the influence of the bacteria, the ranks of zombies here surpass the outside world, and the mutated creatures are active.

The crystal bomb compresses the energy of the crystal nucleus, which is as powerful as a nuclear bomb but does not cause nuclear pollution. It is already the best and fastest solution that can be achieved at this stage.

The aftermath of the crystal bomb explosion was still there, and Qi Ran stood on Wuji Mountain, looking at the city shrouded in dark clouds.

"Launch a purification bomb."

The purification bomb was made of compressed light-system and water-system crystal nuclei. Following Qi Ran's order, it exploded in the sky above Y City. After the energy dissipated, it began to rain.

Viruses pollute the land, and purification bombs must be used to prevent secondary mutations of residual organisms.

The air is gradually humid, and the breeze blows over the hills, blowing the black hair.

"City B...is it going to fire crystal bombs too?" Xing Yi asked in a low voice, looking at the city that was obliterated in the clouds.

Two days ago, the Harbin base failed to wipe out City B and lost nearly a hundred people with supernatural powers. Lin Chengan asked Qi Ran for assistance with crystal bullets.

In order to reduce the danger of the zombie tide, they tried their best to exterminate the zombies, but they had no choice but to destroy a city.

Xing Yi couldn't imagine a capital turned to dust.

After the end of the world, the concept of country is getting weaker and weaker. If City B disappears again, Country Z, which has lasted for a hundred years, will also be cut off.

Qi Ran smiled, but didn't answer.

back to base--

Qi Ran stated his decision at the meeting, which unsurprisingly aroused surprise and rebuttals from everyone.

"No, it's too dangerous." Xing Yi objected first.

City B is the capital, and its population density is far from that of City Y. The dozen or so teams from the Harbin base never returned. He didn't want Qi Ran to take risks.

A city full of zombies, no matter how meaningful it is, is not as important as living people.

"I support Xiaoran." Shen Qiao unexpectedly stood by Qi Ran's side, "City B is full of zombies, but the level is not high, and the degree of danger is not as high as City Y."

Qi Ran smiled and nodded, "That's right, and Lin Chengan and Lu Chuan also participated."

City B is very close to the Suzaku and Harbin City bases. It is related to the safety of the two bases, and they will not stand idly by.

"Are they going too? Who will preside over the search and rescue in nearby provinces and cities?" Xing Yi asked.

"Li Lin and Ye Shiyan." These two are Lu Chuan and Lin Chengan's most trusted people respectively, and their importance is just like Ning Xuan's to Qi Ran.

"Ye Shiyan?" Shen Qiao felt that the name sounded familiar. "It can't be the Ye family I thought..."

"Yes."

"I'll go..." The guess in his heart was confirmed, Shen Qiao leaned back in the chair, his eyes were empty.

If the Lin family was once a big tree supporting country Z, then the Ye family is the countless branches of this big tree.

It is impossible to know when the history of the Ye family began. The only thing that can be determined is that this family is like leaves scattered throughout the Z country, and is active in various fields in a low-key manner.

And Shen Qiao... used to have a feud with members of the Ye family.

He said it was a holiday, but it was actually because the girl he had a crush on had a surname of Ye... that's all.

Shen Qiao thought of the unbearable past and sighed with his hands on his forehead.

The members of the Ye family... are all evildoers who will bring disaster to the country and the people!

Time was running out. After the meeting, Qi Ran started to prepare for departure. He first met Lu Chuan and then went to City B.

The helicopter circled over the Suzaku base and landed slowly.

"Xiao Ran!"

Lu Chuan greeted him with a bright smile and gave Qi Ran a big hug.

Glance, who came down behind Qi, pulled him away with a displeased expression.

Just as Lu Chuan was about to get angry, he found out that it was the man from the Harbin base who had appeared and captured Sun Shao alive, so he silently withdrew his hand.

"Where's Lin Chengan?" Qi Ran asked.

Lin Chengan set off the day before them, but he hasn't arrived yet?

"I met a group of mutated birds, and they arrived one day late." Lu Chuan explained.

Lin Chengan was a sixth-level fire-type supernatural being. Although it took time to face the mutant bird, he was not in danger.

Under the leadership of Lu Chuan, Qi Ran and his party walked into the Suzaku base, attracting the attention of all.

"That's the leader of the Baize base? He's even younger than Young Master Lu?"

"Who's the blond one? So handsome!"

"Ah! He saw me!"

Under the leadership of Lu Chuan, the residents of the Suzaku base were enthusiastic and open. Seeing the handsome Glance, the young girls waved excitedly and blew kisses.

That posture is like a group of star-chasers before the end of the world.

Lu Chuan curled his lips, expressing dissatisfaction and disdain that he had never enjoyed such treatment.

He glanced secretly at Glance, and found that he did have a unique and handsome appearance.

Qi Ran is as indifferent and delicate as clouds and ink, Ning Xuan is gentle and handsome, and Gu Hao is tall and cold and handsome.

They all have the characteristics of oriental people, while Glance is biased towards western people with profound facial features and suave manner.

The streets of the Suzaku base were cheering like foreign superstars.

Grans waved to the crowd beckoningly, feeling like he was back on the planet Sola where the stars are all around the moon.

He was enjoying the feeling of being watched by everyone, when he suddenly found that Qi Ran had gone a long way.

"Ran Ran!"

"Wait for me!"

Glance shouted, and ran to Qi Ran's side to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

Qi Ran paused and continued to move forward.

"Why are you walking so fast? Are you jealous?" Glance said, sneaking a peek at the back of his neck, where there was an inconspicuous hickey.

Ning Xuan is searching and rescuing Province Q, while Gu Hao has to stay at the base, Qi Ran is the only one accompanying Qi Ran in this operation.

Gu Hao left this mark, obviously warning him.

Glance was all smiles and joked with Qi Ran, the calculations in his heart were rattling.

Qi Ran didn't look sideways and remained silent.

Glance was locked up at DA headquarters for a few years and had no contact with anyone but Servin.After finally regaining his freedom, he can't stop talking.

Qi Ran has already experienced it, and after summing up his experience, he understands that there is only one way to deal with him.

--ignore.

Lu Chuan took them on a general tour of the Suzaku base, and then held a meeting to discuss the specific itinerary for City B.

Lin Chengan was born and raised in City B. He had drafted an itinerary before, and Qi Ran and Lu Chuan made revisions and additions based on it.

There are more than a dozen districts and counties in City B, and they are going to get off at Shi City, Province H, and move forward slowly.

"There was a team that entered the fourth ring before, and this image was transmitted."

The dark background is full of densely packed zombies, and everyone present can't help but feel frightened.

"This is...underground?" A psychic supernatural being next to Lu Chuan asked.

Lu Chuan nodded and said, "That's right. The most dangerous thing in City B is not the ground, but the underground. According to preliminary estimates, the concentration of zombies underground is three times that of the ground."

"It's difficult..."

The underground is dark, and I don't know how many dangers are hidden. The underground network of City B extends in all directions, and it is extremely difficult to clean it up.

"Try the domain." Qi Ran said suddenly.

"Field?" Lu Chuan frowned and pondered, "No one here has awakened the realm."

People with spiritual abilities and high-level abilities can awaken the domain, and no such people have appeared in Suzaku Base.

"I have the Absolute Domain and the Assimilation Domain here, and Lin Chengan's... I remember that Ye Shiyan has the Spiritual Domain."

After training, Tian Qi and Xi Ziping's scope of assimilation field has been greatly increased, and the cooperation between the two can cover nearly a hundred people.

And Ye Shiyan's spiritual realm is too mysterious, although he knows it, he doesn't understand it.

"It's a pity that Ye Shiyan organized a search and rescue in Province J." Lu Chuan sighed, "It is said that his abilities are very powerful."

Lu Chuan and Lin Chengan were also at the sixth level, while Ye Shiyan seemed to have broken through to the seventh level.

"Young Master Lu! Young Master Lin is here."

While talking, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Lin Chengan walked in behind the person.

"Lin Chengan? Didn't you encounter a flock of mutated birds?" Lu Chuan asked in surprise. "Solved it so quickly?"

Lin Chengan smiled and said, "With Xiaoyan here, what are mutant birds?"

He said, looking at the person next to him with gentle and affectionate eyes.

The young man who was walking beside him was extremely handsome, his facial features were not inferior to Qi Ran's, but he was beautiful, fierce and coquettish.

"Ye Shiyan..." Qi Ran and Lu Chuan looked at each other, they were talking about him just now, but he unexpectedly followed him.

"Xiao Yu insisted on going to Province J, and I happened to be free, so I came here with Cheng An." Ye Shiyan said with a smile, the corners of his long and narrow eyes were slightly raised, and he was romantic.

"However, that Ye Shiyan has a very high mental threshold." Taking advantage of the time when Lu Chuan took Lin Chengan and Ye Shiyan to their seats, Grans harassed Qi Ran with his mental power.

"How is it better than you?"

"Of course it's far behind!"

Grans Deser said: "After the spiritual integration, my spiritual threshold has exceeded 4000, which is a qualitative leap."

"Even in the entire Milky Way, there are only a handful of people whose spiritual threshold can break through 4000."

"By the way, he seems to be having an affair with Lin Cheng'an. Look at their hands, they've been holding each other!" Grans looked down at the audience mentally, and the two of them thought they were hiding little tricks that they couldn't hide from him at all.

He gossips enthusiastically, but Qi Ran remains silent.

Outlined the route on the map, Qi Ran forced himself to look away, not to see the tacit movements and eyes of Lin Chengan and Ye Shiyan.

They have known each other since childhood, although they are not common, they have been friends for a long time. I really did not expect that the two would become a couple.

Thinking of himself and Ning Xuan, Qi Ran secretly sighed.

Emotional matters, who can guess it.

Because of Lin Chengan and Ye Shiyan's early arrival, the impromptu meeting was changed to a specific plan before departure. Qi Ran discussed with Lu Chuan and the others, and Glance was bored and looked at him in a daze.

When Qi Ran spoke, the light-colored lips that opened and closed were as pink and tender as cherry blossoms. Grans felt ready to move as he recalled the softness of the kiss.

The round table covered their lower bodies, Glance's eyeballs moved, and pale golden tentacles protruded silently, slowly walking on the ground like scattered sunlight.

His mental strength is far superior to all others, and his actions are secretive, even Qi Ran has not been noticed.

The control tentacles cautiously clung to Qi Ran's ankles, and flexibly penetrated along the trouser legs.

The tentacles are condensed by spiritual force, warm and soft, Qi Ran seemed to feel something, and his voice paused.

"What?" Lu Chuan looked at him questioningly.

"It's okay." Qi Ran gave Grans a veiled look, signaling him to restrain himself and continue to arrange the deployment of City B.

Glance looked at his slightly frowned brows, interest flashed in his icy blue eyes, his tentacles nimbly moved up his calf, and wherever he passed, it was like fingertips stroking.

Qi Ran suddenly felt his hairs prick up and his back went numb.

-- this bastard!

Qi Ran cursed secretly, moving his legs to get rid of the tentacles.

"Ye Shiyan and I set up the field, and Lin Chengan led the team from Pingyuan Station into the underground..."

"The above-ground part will be cleared by you, Lu Chuan, and the purification bomb..."

As Glance's tentacles got closer and closer, Qi Ran's voice became a little unsteady.

The flexible tentacles caressed unscrupulously on the smooth chest, playing with the two upright points on it.

Qi Ran's calmness broke down, and he couldn't bear it and shouted: "Grance! Get out!"

The people who were focused on the discussion didn't know what was going on, and were taken aback by Qi Ran.

Seeing that he was angry, Grans accepted it as soon as he saw it, and walked out of the conference room obediently.

As the meeting continued, Ye Shiyan looked at Qi Ran's flushed ears and unstable mental fluctuations, and seemed to realize something.

At the end of the meeting, Qi Ran ignored Glance, who was watching pitifully outside the door, and strode away with a cold face.

"Of course! I was wrong!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Grans hurriedly followed.

Someone next to him turned his head when he heard the movement, Qi Ran frowned and stopped, looking at Grans.

"I don't want to see you right now."

The previous meeting was interrupted and continued. Ye Shiyan's eyes were strange and suspicious, and Lu Chuan...

Qi Ran gets a headache when he thinks of Lin Chengan's teasing expression.

Glance made a big mistake on the spur of the moment and was rejected. His ice blue eyes were full of pity and grievance, like a student reprimanded by a teacher.

He was sure that Qi Ran would be soft and not hard, and he resolutely gave in. Sure enough, Qi Ran looked at him for a while and left helplessly, without saying anything like not wanting to see you.

Back at the residence arranged by Lu Chuan, Qi Ran focused on the battle plan, and suddenly received an internal message that Ye Shiyan was visiting.

Going downstairs and into the hall, Ye Shiyan was sitting leisurely on the sofa, tasting the Ice Mist that Lu Chuan specially gave to Qi Ran.

After the end of the world, the temperature has changed drastically, and the temperature in August has already exceeded [-]. If the virus had not optimized the genes, it would have been difficult for human beings to survive in such an environment.

Queshan Bingwu is a special product of Suzaku Base, and there are only a few plants on the peak of Queshan, where clouds and fog gather.

"Good tea!" Ye Shiyan exclaimed, "Lu Chuan is too eccentric, Chengan and I don't have it."

As a mutant plant, Queshan Bingwu is not just as simple as tea, it also has the effect of soothing the spirit.

Hearing this, Qi Ran smiled, sat down on the sofa, and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

Ye Shiyan put down his teacup, leaned on the back of the sofa, and looked around the living room.

"Where's the handsome blond guy?"

……

Qi Ran was stunned for a rare moment, and realized after a while that he was referring to Glance.

"He went out."

"Oh..." Hearing his words, Ye Shiyan was a little disappointed.

"Are you looking for him...for something?" Qi Ran asked puzzled.

"No, I have something to do with you." Ye Shiyan restrained his expression and said seriously, "Is there something wrong with you and him?"

Qi Ran frowned, "What do you mean?"

Ye Shiyan was silent for a moment, as if he was organizing his words.He looked at Qi Ran's delicate and cold eyes, and said, "He likes you, but you didn't refuse."

If it was someone who was explicitly rejected by Qi Ran, it would be impossible to be so close to him again.When Glance looked at Qi Ran, he didn't hide his affection, and made some intimate moves from time to time, but Qi Ran accepted it silently.

He shouldn't have delved into what this meant, but as a friend, he had to ask.

"You know Ah Xuan's intentions, right?"

Friends like Ning Xuan knew about Ning Xuan's thoughts a long time ago, so Qi Ran was kept in the dark, thinking that it was just brotherhood.

He has seen Ning Xuan's forbearance and pain. Now that the world has changed suddenly, homosexuality is no longer a topic that everyone avoids. He sincerely hopes that those two people can achieve a positive result.

Ye Shiyan's eyes were sincere and open, Qi Ran was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.

"Then you..." Ye Shiyan spoke hesitantly, not knowing how to continue.

Qi Ran sighed softly, squeezed his fingertips, and roughly expressed his emotional entanglements.

The current situation is too complicated, and he really can't handle it by himself. Ye Shiyan is a few years older than him, and has far richer emotional experience than him, so he is a good person to confide in.

Gu Hao, Qi Fan, Sewen, Glance, what happened in just a few months was thrilling. Ye Shiyan listened in astonishment, but at the end he was speechless.

Ning Xuan endured for 20 years, and his deep feelings are naturally incomparable; Gu Hao fell in love with the only person in his memory, and his possession and dependence on Qi Ran went deep into his bones, and he couldn't give up; Qi Ran can't get rid of the imprint that can never be erased.

Ye Shiyan didn't expect Qi Ran to encounter so many things in a few months, and there was too much distance between him and Ning Xuan, as if it wasn't as simple as being together if you have feelings and I have intentions.

Pressing his forehead, Ye Shiyan looked at the silent man with his head down, stepped forward and pressed his shoulder.

"When it comes to relationships, the most important thing is to be loyal to one's own heart. Chengan and I...we almost regretted our whole lives because we couldn't face our own heart." Ye Shiyan's voice was low, memories and sadness flashed deep in his eyes, Finally relieved.

"I can't help you choose, I can only tell you, don't let yourself regret it."

He and Lin Chengan had misunderstandings, separation, and despair, but fortunately they did not leave any regrets in the end.Although he is biased toward Ning Xuan, he can't influence Qi Ran's choice because of this, because he can't tolerate others when it comes to emotional matters.

Having said all that, Ye Shiyan couldn't say more, he said goodbye to Qi Ran and returned to his residence, looking at Lin Chengan who was waiting for him, his eyes were full of warmth.

In any case, it is a blessing to have someone who loves you so much.

The next day, the girls and women at the Suzaku Base went out to see them off one after another. Glance poked his head out of the car window and waved to them with a bright smile.

"Attracting bees and butterflies," Lu Chuan said angrily.

--They are not so enthusiastic about themselves, the leader of the base!

The subordinate next to him inexplicably smelled a sour feeling, and thought to himself: Who made you lose that handsome face!

It took eight hours to drive from Suzaku Base to City B, and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived at their destination.

"Stay where you are and start operations in half an hour." Qi Ran was the highest officer of this operation. Lin Cheng'an and Lu Chuan each led a small team, responsible for investigation and assistance.

"The entrance to the Apple Orchard collapsed and is expected to be cleared within 10 minutes."

Ye Shiyan's voice came from the tiny communicator on his earlobe.

"receive."

Qi Ran made a gesture and ordered the team to stand ready.

Pingyuan is the starting station of Metro Line 1, from here they will enter the underground tunnel and start cleaning up the zombies hidden in the dark.

Opposite the Pingyuan subway is a shopping mall. There are zombies inside who heard the sound and heard the wind, and they were easily wiped out by the supernatural beings guarding outside.

Most of the abilities that have survived until now have evolved to the fourth level, and there is no pressure to face these low-level zombies.

"Clean up."

The communicator sounded again, and Qi Ran led a large force to join the reconnaissance team and entered the underground tunnel.

The underground, which has not seen light all year round, is dark and exudes a decaying smell.Lin Chengan in front turned on the searchlight, and suddenly a beam of dazzling light broke through the darkness.

This kind of searchlight imitates the power of the light system, has a second-level brightness and heat, and has a certain deterrent effect on low-level zombies.

Three searchlights can illuminate the entire platform, and the zombies dormant in the dark reveal their true colors in an instant.

"action!"

With Qi Ran's order, the radiance of supernatural powers was colorful, and fireworks bloomed in the darkness.

There were broken corpses all over the platform, and the dried blood made the ground a dark brown color, and the whole space exuded a stench and corpse smell.

Ye Shiyan frowned, using the spiritual realm to block out the disgusting aura, and followed Lin Chengan.

The Pingyuan Station was not big, and it took them about an hour and a half to clean it up. Qi Ran left Lu Chuan to deal with the aftermath, and led the large force to the next station.

The number of zombies in the first few stations was not very large, and the ranks were mostly around the third or fourth stage. However, when they reached the fifth platform, they obviously felt that the number of zombies had increased.

"Come here first today." Qi Ran glanced at his watch and said, "Get out of the station."

The underground is full of dangers and mobility is limited. They need to return to the ground to rest.

The sky was already dark, and a crescent moon hung in the sky, exuding a bright light.

The team that had fought for a day surrounded the bonfire and took turns to rest.

"It will take at least one month to clean up City B." Lin Chengan looked at the map in his hand and estimated, "Based on today's speed."

They cleared five stations today, and they haven't entered the most densely populated fourth ring road yet.

After entering the fourth ring, their speed will inevitably slow down, and one month may not be enough.

"The tide of zombies will probably be in November. We have to go back to the city in October whether we have cleaned it up or not." Qi Ran sketched on the map and said, "We will start entering the fourth ring tomorrow. Since the news from the previous teams, There are at least five high-level zombies at the document station."

Kumon Station is a hub transfer station. In the B city of Nuo Da, the density of people can be imagined.

"Glans, you and Cheng An will act together tomorrow." Qi Ran turned to look at Glans, and said: "Be careful."

Although Glance accompanied him to City B, Qi Ran didn't want him to make a move.

Human beings always have the idea that people who are not of our race must be different. Once Grans reveals his identity, it is inevitable that no one will regard him as a different kind.

"Don't worry." Lin Chengan nodded.

"Be careful too." Glance's icy blue eyes did not hide his concern, and whispered: "Call me if you are in danger."

The spiritual contract allows them to communicate spiritually. As long as one party calls, the other party can immediately sense it and come to the other party through space.

Qi Ran smiled gratefully at him.

It has to be said that although Glance always seems to be flirting with him, he is always by his side when needed, which makes him grateful and does not know how to repay.

Qi Ran sighed softly, it's hard to repay a favor, what Glance wants, he really can't afford it.

After the spiritual integration, he can perceive many thoughts of Glans, and he knows how passionate Glans's feelings are, and there is a kind of persistence and purity that makes him irresistible.

How could he bear such feelings...

Qi Ran looked at the dancing flames in a daze, but suddenly felt a burst of heat in his earlobe.

"What are you thinking about?"

Grans faintly sensed his thoughts, and in order to prevent him from getting into a corner, he glanced at Lin Chengan and Ye Shiyan, who were discussing and kissing me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, and Ye Shiyan, and moved closer to Qi Ran.

The tip of his tongue licked Qi Ran's soft earlobe, causing a shiver.

Qi Ran was so frightened by Glance's sudden movement that he almost jumped up. He held back his beating heart, and carefully looked at the crowd around him. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he whispered: "Release."

Glance's teeth were biting his earlobe lightly, and his hand had already taken advantage of his unpreparedness to stick out the hem of his shirt and stroked his waist.

Qi Ran's side waist has always been sensitive and tight. He felt the back of his neck go numb, and wanted to avoid it, but he didn't dare to make too much movement in consideration of the people around him.

"Don't feel guilty, what I do is willing." Glance whispered in his ear, "Of course, my feelings are not without asking for anything in return."

--I want you to fall in love with me.

Needless to say the following words, after the fusion of spiritual power, the two of them connected with each other. Glance's obsession had already influenced Qi Ran unconsciously, making him gradually moved.
