Doomsday Bandits and Tramps

==========================

It was dark, and it was different from the wilderness. The night in Tinis City was shrouded in lights. There were street vendors and crowded crowds. It was noisier than during the day, but it didn’t have the hot temperature during the day. peaceful.

night and tranquility.

The combination of these two words seems to be a thing of the past life.

Xiu couldn't tell how long he had been wandering, but he only knew that every night, he had to worry about shelter. Sleeping in the wilderness was nothing, and it was great luck to be able to avoid strange beasts and sleep safely.

He leaned against the window, watching the bustle of people on the street outside the window, the long-lost smell of fireworks drifting into the house from the window, but his thoughts drifted to unknown corners.

"Hasn't it been a long time since I saw the night view of a human city?"

Xiu supported his chin with one hand, and kept looking out of the window: "Aren't you only interested in money?"

Seth nodded silently, and after a while, he couldn't help but say: "I heard that the organs of animals will degenerate if they are not used for a long time. Do you think people will become dumb if they don't talk all the time?"

Xiu didn't make a sound, walked away from the window, took a piece of bread and gnawed on it.

"Hey, how many years have you been wandering?" Seth stuck to Xiu like a candy, "How many places have you been to? Tell me, what is the outside world like?"

Just as Seth finished speaking, half a piece of bread was suddenly stuffed into his mouth.

"If the food can't stop your mouth, I can only freeze your mouth."

Seth shook his hand silently, pulled out the bread stuffed into his mouth, and finished eating in two bites.

Suddenly, a strong wind broke through the window, the hotel was shaking, and the crowd on the street was screaming in panic.

Xiu rushed to the window and looked around: "An alien beast?"

"No, it's a military helicopter."

While speaking, a dark green helicopter flew over the buildings in the city from a low altitude, and the transparent barrier above Tinis City opened a corner. After the helicopter lifted off, the barrier gradually closed together again.

"Didn't you come to catch us?"

"Of course not, the two of us are worth 250 gold bars together, but you still think highly of us," Seth said, "They are going to support the front line."

Xiu recalled several times before when people mentioned that the battle on the front line was tense. The moment the helicopter passed over their heads, this kind of panic swept the whole city. The peace of the previous second disappeared, and terror and panic gradually enveloped the entire fortress city.

Seth said: "In the past few months, the activities of the alien beasts have become more and more frequent, and they are constantly approaching the fortress city. It will not take long for them to reach the [-]-day line of defense."

Xiu looked out of the window, he saw the bustling city in his eyes, and a picture flashed in his mind: the city engulfed by raging fire, howling wind and bone-chilling sea water.

"Maybe it can last for a long time, maybe overnight. But Tinis City has walls, military troops, and scattered mercenaries. You have time to resist. Even if you fail, you can't resist the tide of alien beasts attack, you also know how and why you died."

Xiu's emotions were fully seen by Seth. He didn't speak, but reached out and rubbed his head: "I thought I was living a pessimistic life, but I didn't expect anyone to live a more pessimistic life than me."

Xiu knocked off his hand, and glanced at him with an expression of "I'm not a child, don't comfort me".

"That's right, you've been wandering alone for so many years, it's really hard for you to be optimistic."

Seth sat next to Xiu and looked at him seriously: "Really, listen to my brother, it's dangerous for you to wander outside alone, why not follow me, I will guarantee you three meals a day, and you can sleep peacefully .”

"If it's as good as you say, why does Pullin still take the immigration test?"

Xiu asked: "If he passes the immigration exam, you two brothers will have one in the sky and the other in the ground, and you may never see each other again. Are you willing to let him?"

Seth was silent. He walked to the window and pointed out to Xiu: "Did you see those two towers?"

Under the night, two tall towers stood in the middle of the fortress city, and the dazzling lights shone brightly in the darkness: "That is the temple tower of the military. An airport where boats dock."

Xiu stood beside Seth, staring at the two brightly lit towers: "If you give up on him, will he give up on you?"

"People are different, but in the final analysis, they all want to survive in this last world," Seth said. "In this world, people who are too kind but incompetent can only be bullied, and those who are kind but capable are easily bullied." Deception. Therefore, he can only go to the sky, you, you should continue to wander."

Xiu looked at Seth, and suddenly felt that this man seemed to be different from what he thought.

He is not a simple bandit, or, he is not a bandit.

"Ha~~~"

The silence was restored outside the window, Seth yawned, and lay on the bed sprawled: "It's getting late, I've been chased all day, I'm almost exhausted."

Xiu glanced at the person occupying the entire bed, and kicked him on the calf in displeasure: "You sleep on the bed, what should I sleep on?"

Seth twisted his body like a maggot, giving up half of the bed: "Let's go together, I don't dislike you."

"I hate you."

"Then I can't help it." Seth held his mouth and lay back in the middle of the bed again, "The military sent troops to the front line, and tomorrow morning they will send more people to watch the candidates leave the city. We have to sneak out of the guard posts with fewer people as soon as possible. Get out and go to bed now."

After finishing speaking, Seth closed his eyes, and a voice came after a while.

Xiu Meizhe slept on the floor tightly wrapped in a blanket, looking at Seth who was snoring on the bed, recalling his contradictory words in his mind.

"You eat what others give you. It's so easy to trust people you've never met before. Are you not afraid of being betrayed?"

"Then let me correct it, don't eat what others give you."

"For the sake of saving you several times, can you try to trust me?"

"A kind but capable person is easily deceived."

Xiu didn't know if he should trust Seth, but there must be a story about this man.

"What kind of person was he before he became a bandit?"

Xiu muttered in his heart, but he quickly shook his head and kicked the man out of his mind.

I will leave here tomorrow, just for one night, there is no way for the two of us to meet again, why do we think so much.

Xiu closed his eyes, sighed softly, and fell asleep slowly.

On the bed, Seth opened his eyes, looked at the sleeping Xiu, smiled regretfully, turned over and fell asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Seth and Xiu slipped out of Tinis City during the shift change of the sentries.

Seth asked Xiu to wait in the car first, and after a while, he threw a large sack into the back seat.

Xiu sat in the co-pilot and closed his eyes to rest his mind. He woke up too early and still felt sleepy: "Don't tell me, you took the time to rob."

"It's so early, the dogs are still taking a nap, where should I go to rob?"

Xiu patted him on the arm: "Who are you scolding?"

Seth smiled, got into the cab, and threw a paper bag to Xiu: "The pancakes and soy milk just out of the pan, be careful of being hot."

The oily aroma instantly aroused Xiu's gluttonous appetite. While blowing, he ate the biscuit hotly: "When will Prin come out?"

"I guess it will take a while. The two-day exam time is compressed into one day. I heard that they finished the exam in the middle of the night, rested for the night, and left the temple tower at dawn." Seth grabbed Xiu's hand and took a big bite of the pancake, which was so hot Tongues are fighting, "Then I know that Nan Delai Yichi wants to support his cheeks, so he has a lot of freedom."

"You'll be scalded to death."

Xiu threw the rest of the pancake into his mouth, took another pancake and blew it: "There are so many in the bag, you just want to grab what I have, is it an addiction to robbery or something?"

"Hey, can't you just make a move?"

Seth started the car and stopped at the outer edge of the sentry post in the examinee passage.

"Hey, have you heard that the military's defense line has been breached again."

"No way, didn't you just retreat ten kilometers yesterday?"

"Isn't it? Last night, the commander of the First Army Corps of the Temple Tower personally led reinforcements. I heard that the helicopter crashed as soon as it arrived on the battlefield. Now people don't know whether they are dead or alive."

"The helicopter crashed, could there be flying monsters this time!?"

"There must be. This time the military's defense line is as fragile as a piece of paper. If this continues, the [-]-day defense line will be broken before noon!"

"Ah?! Then, let's run away. Once the [-]-day line of defense is broken, the tide of alien beasts will come straight to the city of Tinis!"

"Go! Go! If you don't go again, when the tide of alien beasts comes, we won't be able to go even if we want to!"

The examinee's conversation was heard in detail by the trainee, and he glanced at Seth, his face was as gloomy as death, and his hands on the steering wheel were bruised.

Helicopter crash?

Is that the helicopter from last night?

Seeing Seth's reaction, there is someone he knows on the helicopter?

Xiu was chewing on the pancakes, Seth suddenly pushed the door and got out of the car, seeing that the situation was wrong, Xiu hurriedly got out of the car to stop him: "Where are you going?"

"You heard it all, do you still need to explain?"

"What about Prin?"

"he......"

"Big brother!"

Prin rushed out from the crowd and said out of breath, "Brother, brother, listen, I heard that the military helicopter crashed. Is it the helicopter that Brother Kang and Brother Luo were on!"

"do not know."

Seth pushed Prin to Xiu's side: "Do me a favor and take him back for me."

Pullin grabbed Seth, preferring to die: "No, I want to go with you!"

Without further ado, Seth stunned Prin with a hand knife and threw him into the car.

"Help me take him back," Seth said again, "You have been to the dark alley, you should be able to find the way."

"Order?" Xiu asked.

"It's a request." Seth wasn't in much mood, but still smiled at Xiu, "Seeing our trivial friendship and free breakfast, you will do me this little favor, right?"

Xiu shrugged noncommittally, and sat in the driver's seat: "Don't think too much, I just have to go back to find my motorcycle, and I don't intend to help you."

"I know," Seth took half a step back, watching Xiu start the engine, "Thank you."

"It's strange that the bandits still say thank you," Xiu looked at Seth and asked, "Are you going to throw yourself into a trap?"

"Perhaps, taking advantage of the fire?"

"Good luck."

Xiu drove away in an off-road vehicle, Seth looked around, snatched a motorcycle in front of the sentry, with the engine roaring, and galloped towards the [-]-day defense line.
