no star

It's too late.

The continuous ringing of bells seemed to be some kind of ominous urging, blasting in everyone's minds.Rong Zhe quickly pushed Li Xingmo. Fortunately, the road here is complicated. After turning around for a while, they left everything behind. They just responded, and they didn't know where they were now.

The two of them felt a little shocked by the sudden appearance of the bell just now, and with the strange performance of IV01 later, they both had some guesses in their hearts. Rong Zhe leaned against the cold wall on one side and evened his breath: "I guess, IV01 , probably not what we thought.”

Li Xingmo has not expressed his position on the speculation related to this code name since just now. At this moment, he shook his head slightly, his chest heaved after experiencing violent exercise, and he only heard him say softly: "Suppose, if you want to give me a code name, why not?" In the Fallen Star Project, how should I be referred to?"

Rong Ji paused, not wanting to answer this question, so Li Xingmo simply asked himself: "As the lucky winner who participated in the initial plan, if Wen Ling regards me as a part of his plan, Then before my code name, it should be affixed with eternity—”

He stretched out his pale and slender fingers, and wrote a letter on the smooth wall: Ⅰ.

The last digit represents the first plan, just like IV01 is the beginning of a new stage.

"If you regard this code name as a new beginning, then that is to say, IV01, it means that in the new stage, he is the first experimental subject, no matter whether the result is successful or unsuccessful, as long as he survives, There is this code."

"so--"

"So," the two voices came out at the same time, and Li Xingmo said without hesitation as if he had seen Rong Ji, "plus that mark we have never seen before, these people locked up underground by Wenling should have been injected. The man of the final reagent."

This is not too difficult to understand. Every plan is phased, and of course there are corresponding goals for each phase. Since Wen Ling had planned for immortality a long time ago, and Li Xingmo and the others have come all the way, He has never seen any traces related to eternal life on anyone, so it is not difficult to guess that there must be a group of people who have taken all the risks of failure of this plan on his behalf, and these monsters locked underground are likely to be these batch of victims.

Rong Ju quickly figured out the key point. He frowned, thinking of those people pouring out outside just now, he felt a chill in his heart. It should be a very large number, even Maybe there are more innocent people who died because of this, hidden in places they don't know.

And such a large number is enough to show that the plan itself is imperfect and doomed to failure, and only the instigator will not change after repeated admonition.

Just as Li Xingmo and Rong Ju were gasping for breath, the lingering bell suddenly stopped, like the calm before the storm, and then, from a farther place, there was a vague cry of pain.

The voice passed through the winding underground corridors, and it seemed a little distorted, but it still did not prevent those close to him from hearing a trace of familiarity. Li Xingmo immediately couldn't stand still, he clenched his fists tightly, and asked tentatively: "What is that?" ...Xiao Fan?"

No one answered the question, as if he knew he already had the answer.

He didn't care to ask the other party why he appeared here, or other irrelevant questions. The painful cry just now clearly indicated that the other party was in danger; in addition, both Rong Ju and Li Xingmo knew that staying here was only for a while To escape, they always have to face everything that is about to happen, and the more danger they delay, the more danger, so in the end, they chose to carefully leave from the quiet corner just now, and embarked on the journey close to the scream.

The two of them intentionally avoided the escape route they took just now, and chose another completely different path, but God seemed to deliberately play a joke on them. After turning another corner, a narrow door suddenly appeared in front of them. In the wall, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all, and there are really empty cells on both sides-this door, they have never seen this door during the journey just now.

And the scream just now, in the memory of the two of them, seems to have happened near here.

"Do you remember the road that IV01 took us when it came?" Rong Ju said in a deep voice, "The road was wide at first, but later it became much narrower than before, and there were cells like this on both sides."

Li Xingmo had an excellent understanding with him, and it was almost unnecessary for Rong Ju to say the next thing, he asked, "You mean, this is the place we are looking for?"

"Anyway, Xiao Fan was also near here just now, and now there may be monsters like IV01 going crazy in the passage at any time. They are waiting to die outside, and maybe they can live if they go in."

At this point, Rong Ju's expression was much more relaxed. Perhaps he had finally learned to enjoy the bitterness in the process of being pushed away by fate for a long time. He shrugged: "Do you want to get in?"

Li Xingmo smiled: "Come in."

Then there was only a loud noise, and the door issued a sharp warning sound, which echoed layer by layer and spread far away, but still reluctantly exposed a small gap towards the two people in front of them.Li Xingmo stepped forward, and when he wanted to push him away, he passed him with one hand, and easily pulled him away; Rong Ju was standing behind him, maintaining this posture, and the gentleman raised his eyebrows at him a little rascally: " please."

It's really strange, probably because the background is so desperate, Li Xingmo unexpectedly tasted some belated sweetness from the tip of his tongue at this absurd timing, so he opened his mouth and asked irrelevantly. Asked a question: "Rong Ju, did you often ask people to dance like this in Lao Futi?"

Rong Ju walked in and closed the door, looked at the small reception room, and turned his head with a smile when he heard this: "Guess."

I do not guess you guess guess.

Li Xingmo's mood that was similar to that of a young boy Huaichun disappeared in an instant. He turned his head away expressionlessly, and instead of looking at Rong Ju's handsome face that was a little bit embarrassed, he turned to look at He entered the other innermost door of the reception room, stared at it for a few seconds, and said, "Go there."

It seemed that something just happened there, the ground was in a mess, and the ordinary door lock was also broken, which lured them to go deeper, just like the last false chip given by the dealer in a game. A desperate gambler.

The perpetrators are behind the scenes, playing with the gambler's mentality: they are here, they have to.

The door was pushed open, and the two finally saw the inside: there was an extremely spacious underground laboratory inside, and all kinds of machines were running in an orderly manner. At the end, stood a few figures that they would never forget in their lifetime. , it was Le Haokong and Ling Mi, who were standing far away at the other end, smiling at them.

"Long time no see, my child." Ling Mi called out to Rong Zhi.

Although he had been mentally prepared for this kind of situation, when he first saw the other party, Rong Ju still couldn't hide the complicated expression at that moment. This was his mother, the family he admired and cherished throughout his youth, And he has been wandering in the universe for a long time, and when he saw him today, he thought for a moment:

It's been a long time, and he has almost forgotten the other person's appearance.

The title of mother, which is full of fireworks and affection, has finally become a meaningless code name in his life, so should he be glad that he can get away from it at this time?

His fingertips suddenly felt cold, and it was Li Xingmo who quietly held his hand.

Only then did he withdraw from his emotions in panic, forcibly stripped away the bit of melancholy, and did not show the other party too much expression: "The relationship between mother and child was broken early, so there is no need to reminisce about the old days."

Ling Mi sighed: "Even if you hate me, you have to know, A Rong, even if you and Li Xingmo broke into this place today, it's just a dead end."

Immediately, she and Le Haokong made way for a passage that could be passed by one person, only then did Li Xingmo and Rong Ju realize that what was hidden behind them was Wen Ling and Li Panxia who was standing next to Wen Ling.

And further away on the ground, lay Xiao Fan who didn't know what to do, his body was covered with scars, Zi Yi half-kneeled beside her, his black hair covered his eyebrows, so he couldn't see the expression on her face at this moment.

"Li Xingmo." Sitting in a wheelchair, Wen Ling said his name accurately, with a slight smile on his face, "This should be the first time we have met. . . . but I should have contacted you several times before. Do you still like those gifts?"

In this way, Wen Ling summed up the past full of pain in this sentence. With a smile on his face, he motioned for others to stand aside, "Xing Mo, look at the situation I set up for you. The ultimate gift for you, is everyone here related to you?"

His eyes swept over everyone one by one: "Your parents, friends, and lover are all here now. You have to thank me for my hard work."

Li Xingmo clenched his fists suddenly, he heard an unknown tremor in his voice: "What exactly do you want to say?"

"What?" Wen Ling's smile widened, as if appreciating the anger and fear of others made him feel happy: "I have nothing to say, I just think, will dying like this make you happier? My whitemouse. "

Rong Zhe, who had been standing beside him, suddenly let out a muffled snort, and a penetrating gunshot wound appeared on his body. Li Xingmo froze for a moment, and then slowly looked at the person who shot. Ling Mi said, "You don't mind?"

Ling Mi said, "You can do whatever you want."

During the conversation between the two, it seemed that they only regarded Rong Zhe as a dispensable item. Li Xingmo's eyes were scarlet, and his voice was almost bleeding, he said: "Then die together!"

The scimitar was held in his hand, and he arched his waist, but before he got close, he was caught. Ziyi easily pinched the back of his neck, and his figure was reflected in the dark red pupils. Feelings, then picked him up and fell heavily to the ground.

Li Xingmo let out a muffled snort, and the great pain swept him over. With his eyes blurred by physical tears, he looked at Rong Zi who was not far away, and saw the dark brown eyes of the other party who always looked gentle.

Bloodstains had spread under Rong Ju's body, and his face became pale and tired very quickly, just like a few years ago, he couldn't say a word, obviously it was not too far away, but it seemed that there were thousands of mountains and rivers separated him. Difficult to overcome, Li Xingmo couldn't help thinking: Will people have an afterlife?

Because Rong Ju opened his mouth just now, and the shape of his mouth was clear, and he said——

"Good boy, see you in the next life."

Don't want an afterlife, Li Xingmo burst into tears, he thought, don't give me illusory promises, let me fulfill them in the afterlife, this life is not over yet, they have experienced so much in this life, can't they have a consummation?

Why?

There is no doubt that this will be a repeat of the tragedy.

Only a few years ago, he could hold Rong Ju in his arms and calmly greet the impending death, but at this moment, he could only be reconciled.

Outside is his best friend who fought bloody battles, and the one who is soaked in blood and is dying is the love of his life, but he can't save any of them, he can only lie here helplessly, watching them walk towards the broken and predictable place one by one. finale.

It shouldn't be like this, nothing has changed, like they've just slogged through the stolen years separately.

Li Xingmo suddenly exploded, and in this mime-like scene, he once again raised the knife in his hand, but this kind of dying resistance failed to stir up any splashes, and only got the impatience of the superior; Wen Ling looked at it He looked at a dead body, the smile on the corner of his mouth finally disappeared, he waved his hand blandly: "Kill it."

"I originally wanted to keep him alive, at least as the only omega in the universe, but now it seems that keeping him is causing trouble, so let's send him on the road after taking blood."

Zi Yi raised the knife in his hand high, the blade reflected the light, and the next moment, the blade was about to pierce into Li Xingmo's chest.

At the very moment, a black shadow suddenly rushed up and blocked him tightly, only to hear Li Panxia crying in tears, "Xingmo, go to the right—"

Her words never finished.

Everything seemed to be slowed down, in the chaos, the knife failed to pierce, replaced by a bullet from Ling Mi, which sank into Li Panxia's back chest, so all her sad expressions stopped abruptly in the middle , A large stream of black and red blood spewed out of her mouth, and the half-wing mark on the back of her neck finally faded with the passing of vitality. Her half life as an incompetent mother hastily ushered in the end.

Li Xingmo stroked her still warm cheeks with his pale and livid fingers, his eyes were dry, and under the great grief, he couldn't even shed tears. After a long time, he opened his mouth and called out very difficultly: "Mom?"

No one could answer him, and his mother, who had been with him for eighteen years in Poole, was a lifeless corpse in his arms.

But he didn't seem to believe it, and said softly: "I'm not angry with you, don't scare me."

In the silence, Li Panxia's hand slowly slipped down.

And what was Li Panxia thinking before he died?

Only when her mind control faded did she realize that she had done so many wrong things, and there were so many things she wanted to say to her Xing Mo, but it was too late, including the sentence that had been hidden in her heart for a long, long time——

"Xing Xing, you will always be the favorite baby of mothers in this world."

Don't be sad, my baby.When her consciousness was about to dissipate, she thought, if there is reincarnation, then mother will just take a step first, and then quietly wait for you to come. In the next life, I will be born in an ordinary family, and we will still be mother and child.

I will make a lot of money, and I will never let you live a hard life with your mother again. These thrills will be regarded as a nightmare. I will protect you very well, and I will be a competent mother.

The time we spend together in this life is so short, isn't it, Xing Mo?Mom hasn't had time to take a good look at what you've grown into.

But it doesn't matter, mom will become a little planet in the universe, watching you grow up, so don't be afraid of the way forward, mom is watching.

Xingmo, my baby, the grievances and grievances of the past have all been eliminated at this moment, don't be angry with me again——

In the next life, let me be a mother, okay?
