kill dawn

Another day passed, and the only source of light above the town rose from the horizon.Tens of thousands of small particles dance under the light, and in this barren and uninhabited ruins, only dead things are left to carnival.

Fang Jue and Jiang Bieqiu sat side by side at the doorway which looked like a floor-to-ceiling window.

For so long, the Tower of Dawn has not been contacted.And Louis' state is getting worse day by day, from being awake occasionally at the beginning, to now falling into a deep coma.If it is not treated, it will be sooner or later before the mental sea collapses.

Jiang Bieqiu has been restless.

For the Tower of Dawn, but also for the old dean.

Xueqiu seemed to have sensed Jiang Bieqiu's anxious mood, and after approaching, he "snapped" and lay down between the two of them, licking his paws while exposing his belly to be touched.

Fang Jue lowered his eyebrows and glanced at it, but didn't stop him.

By the time Jiang Bieqiu realized it, his hand had already touched it.

The first time was born and the second time was familiar, Jiang Bieqiu put aside distracting thoughts, buried his face in the plush, and let out a long sigh.

They are kept outside, there is no use in worrying, and there is no use in worrying, the only way is to wait.

Jiang Bieqiu is skilled at licking leopards, but he also remembers that Xueqiu is Fang Jue's spiritual body. When he was struggling to touch or not to touch, he heard Fang Jue say: "Do you think that Gao Zimo has always been targeting aliens?" Capable person?"

"Huh?" Jiang Bieqiu turned his head and thought along Fang Jue's thoughts, "But I remember that he also genetically modified ordinary people."

During the meeting in the Tower of Dawn, the Tower of Dawn once said that apart from Atlantis, Gao Zimo also extracted gene sequences from the polluted body to carry out gene fusion with ordinary people.

While Jiang Bieqiu was in a trance, Fang Jue silently wrapped Xueqiu in his arms, and his stiff body slowly relaxed.Immediately, his expression changed, and he said seriously: "Abandon the polluted body and try to restore it?"

If you abandon the line of genetic fusion between pollutants and ordinary people...

They once went to the Midnight District and saw the guide Lin who was imprisoned in a cage and lost his freedom. According to the information of the underground world, these supernatural beings were injected with Atlantis. As for whether they survived or not, it all depended on fate.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Bieqiu was taken to the research room, and Gao Zimo got his attention because he had been injected with Lixiao.

Then there is the polluted body that appeared in the midnight area. They captured a group of ordinary people, and no one knew their purpose.Until Chenchen appeared as a guide...

Every node has the existence of supernatural beings.

Jiang Bieqiu looked solemn: "Could it be that what Gao Zimo did was a cleansing of all the supernatural beings?"

Fang Jue said lightly: "Not sure, but what is certain is that Gao Zimo hates people with supernatural abilities."

What kind of hatred can make him do many anti-human actions at all costs?

... Bailu?

A woman's face quickly flashed in his mind, like a conditioned reflex, Jiang Bieqiu suddenly retched.

In an instant, the world was spinning.

Those gloomy years that seem to be engraved in the genes - empty ceilings, cold injections, cries, cold eyes, shackles that bind the limbs, and the broken bodies of women on the battlefield...

Jiang Bieqiu coughed until the sky was dark, and his tears leaked out uncontrollably. He bent his waist and tried to lie down flat, but he couldn't move because of convulsions.

Then, a pair of hands caught his crumbling body.

The heat was transmitted to the central nervous system through contact, almost waking up Jiang Bieqiu's mind, so all the negative senses faded away like a tide, and only one smell remained in the whole world.

The smell that belongs to Fang Jue's arms.

I don't know when it started, the original posture of sitting side by side became facing each other, Jiang Bieqiu bent his legs, rested his forehead on Fang Jue's right shoulder, panting continuously.

Fang Jue's arm was around Jiang Bieqiu's side, not pretending to be close, but also showing a protective posture.

...Fang Jue was really frightened by this sudden encounter, Xueqiu swung his tail quickly and circled Jiang Bieqiu back and forth.

The shirt on his chest was crumpled into crumpled paper, and his trembling and fragile breath was right next to his ears.After a long while, Fang Jue felt that Jiang Bieqiu had regained his composure, subconsciously lowered his head to look, and met the Master's glistening eyes.

Jiang Bieqiu wiped away his tears indiscriminately, and said in a bit of embarrassment: "...I'm sorry, I was suddenly stressed just now."

Fang Jue pursed his lips.

He didn't ask, didn't say much, he just raised his hand and wiped away Jiang Bieqiu's tears with his sleeve very naturally.

Jiang Bieqiu's expression flustered as if he had been shocked by an electric shock. At first glance, he looked even more embarrassed than when he was under stress just now.Fang Jue thought that his actions were a little offensive, and frowned, "Sorry..."

"No." Jiang Bieqiu shook his head, forcing himself to calm down, "It's my problem. I just thought of my... mother."

The word "mother" came out, but it turned into a cold "mother" on the lips.He never deliberately thought about that woman, one reason was that whenever he thought of her, his heart was filled with hatred.Secondly, fragmented pictures will flash in his mind, and these pictures can make him produce a stress reaction irresistibly.

If you just recall those years in the laboratory, it is not the case.The two nouns "Bailu" and "Mother" also live on the bloody skeleton entropy on the battlefield many years ago.

Jiang Bieqiu regained his composure, stroked Xueqiu's head, and said softly while comforting him, "You should know that Bai Lu—a former senior biological engineer, and now a first-class human criminal, is my mother."

Fang Jue: "Yes."

"She has devoted all her life to the cause she insisted on, including me. She was surrounded by a group of people who were loyal to academics. When she died, no one collected her body. The Tower of Dawn put her in prison, but she was not well guarded. Let her run out. Just run away, but she has to run here."

This piece of land left after the war connects the tower area and Big Star.

The flames of war continue, and human beings have not stopped fighting among themselves, and all kinds of weapons are aimed at their own compatriots.At that time, Bai Lu might have wanted to go to Bigg Star, but before she entered the tunnel, she was bombarded by the oncoming quantum bombardment.

"The Liming Tower first suggested that I collect her bones, but I originally refused." Jiang Bieqiu smiled, "But thinking about it, I was quite curious about how she died, so I went."

Human beings are so insignificant in the face of life and death. A legendary figure who can turn the human base upside down with a single sequence in his life is nothing more than a piece of loess after death.

Facing a mass of blood and flesh that could not be seen in human form, Jiang Bieqiu cried bitterly, and then took her home.

Faced with this past event, Fang Jue still didn't have much expression.

In Jiang Bieqiu's eyes, Fang Jue has always been a calm person who forgets both favors and insults, hiding all his emotions under his skin.Thinking about it now, it should have been extremely rare for Fang Jue to get angry because of his injection of Li Dawn in the Midnight District.

But it is precisely because Fang Jue will not show mercy at will, that he is the only Fang Jue in this world.

But what Jiang Bieqiu didn't expect was that under the collision of memories, Fang Jue also recalled a part of his past.

He took out a square box from his pocket, put it in Jiang Bieqiu's hand, and said, "I used to live in a box."

"Huh?" Jiang Bieqiu was taken aback, "A box?"

Fang Jue: "The name of this box is 'What You Should Do'."

He was born in a hot month. According to the calculation of the four seasons of the ancient earth, that season should be called summer—it was the era when supernatural beings were fighting fiercely with ordinary people.

Born on the battlefield, facing countless dead compatriots and a future that humans cannot see, Zhang Yuting put a cage called "responsibility" on Fang Jue.

From then on, Fang Jue's life did not belong to him.

"You should shoulder the future of mankind", "You can't be easily angry and sad", "Ajue, don't be willful"...

until he stepped into the battlefield.

As the reserve force of the main force, Fang Jue was cut off by the opponent and fell to the end.Under the super-intensive load, Fang Jue, relying on his own strength, tore a hole alone in the bloody storm.

While the enemy was amazed by Fang Jue's strength, they were defeated by the main force ahead.

If there is no accident, Fang Jue will break out of the siege and return to the main force.

If nothing unexpected happens……

The surprise is, the mental threshold.

The world is fair.When other sentries fell into mental overload and needed a guide to appease him, Fang Jue Neng walked into the polluted area expressionlessly; and when his mental threshold was triggered, no guide could save his life.

He fell off the battleship and rolled unconscious into the wreckage.Under the double pinch of loss of sense and super sense, the strongest sentinel, known for his calmness on weekdays, was like a newborn baby, unable to control his movements.

But no one can tell why there is a weak guide on the battlefield.

Fang Jue thought of this with the remaining consciousness.

What follows is a long period of appeasement.

At the mental threshold, Fang Jue could perceive the outside world, but could not move.The little guide was weak, but well-behaved. His mental body... couldn't see clearly, but he was small—this was Fang Jue's only memory.

Fang Jue was 15 years old, before Xueqiu grew up, that little man accompanied Xueqiu through every moment that was about to dissipate.

"I have a special spirit, and there are very few guides who can match me. When he forcibly combined with me in order to save me, I thought he would die." Fang Jue chuckled, "But he didn't."

The little wizard looked weak, but he was very tenacious, and even helped Fang Jue at that time to return to his one-man battleship.

When leaving, Fang Awakened.

In just over ten years, Fang Jue put himself in a small box covered with "things you should do". For the first time in his life, he felt "I think".

I want to save him, I want to take him back.

"I went back with my injuries and told my mother that there were still people alive in that area." Fang Jue said, "But my mother said, don't worry about him, he's just a guide. If he dies, there will be more, but the war cannot be lost."

"..." Jiang Bieqiu moved his lips, "Then, have you gone back?"

Fang Jue looked pale: "I went back, but he didn't wait for me."

Regardless of Zhang Yuting's objection, he broke free from the box and returned to the battlefield with the little guide.But on the way, the spiritual connection between them was broken.

Spiritual union is no better than physical union. Once the weak link is broken, it disappears into the vast ocean.

And passively cut off the spiritual connection, there is only one reason, one party dies.

Fang Jue's first "I think" was killed in the spring when the grass grows and the warbler flies after the victory of the war.

Snowball had already fallen asleep, her belly rising and falling rhythmically.Fang Jue looked up at Jiang Bieqiu, and suddenly asked, "Have you ever been to a battlefield when you were young?"

Jiang Bieqiu was startled: "What do you mean?"

Fang Jue didn't answer.

He just suddenly remembered the familiarity with Jiang Bieqiu's spirit when he touched the net during the pseudo-union in the underground world.

In the world...is there such a coincidence?

However, these words did not know where Jiang Bieqiu touched, he suddenly stood up and asked, "Do you think I might be him?"

Fang Jue was silent for a moment: "I don't know."

"I'm not, Fang Jue." Jiang Bieqiu stepped over the snowball, away from Fang Jue, "My memory is very complete, I don't have amnesia..."

At the end of the speech, it rolled from the throat into the stomach again.

Wait, dawn breaks.

He had injected Daybreak, the years of fighting madly with chaos.

Jiang Bieqiu's eyes were flushed, and he forced himself to continue: "I have no chance of amnesia, and I don't have a spiritual body. I have never been to the battlefield except to restrain Bai Lu's bones. Even if you trigger the mental threshold in front of me now, I can't save you. .”

I can't save you, Fang Jue.

Fang Jue also stood up, looking at Jiang Bieqiu with calm eyes: "I'm sorry if I offended you."

They looked at each other calmly.

But they all know that at this moment, they are only one step away from a heartbeat in their lives.

This plot came a little faster than in my outline... Sure enough, the characters all have their own ideas, and when they are born, they are not under the control of me, the creator.
