"I have a question." Ren Xiaosu suddenly asked, "Did y 'all really discover Qing Zhen's nuclear test site?"
Yang Xiaojin looked at him. "No, I was just lying to Qing Zhen. Previously, his people came into contact with several experts in particle physics. In the end, those experts went missing very quickly, along with their families. However, the Kyung Clan has never conducted any related research, so we suspect this is Qing Zhen's personal behavior. He must have his own secret base. "
"Isn't he a member of the Kyung Clan? Why would he be so defensive of his own home and even set up his own independent base?" Ren Xiaosu was puzzled.
"Because he knows very well." Yang Xiaojin explained, "Almost none of the dozen or so Shadows of the Kyung Clan have been able to end well. A Shadow … is ultimately just a Shadow. "
"Oh." Ren Xiaosu nodded. In that case, Qing Zhen was probably trying to protect himself.
Yang Xiaojin said, "We'd better explain to the public that it was Xu Xianchu who saved the two of us. Otherwise, it'll be very easy for your superpower to be exposed. This time, I'm seriously advising you not to let anyone know that you have the ability to copy other people's superpowers. It'll be too dangerous if others find out about it."
Ren Xiaosu was stunned. "Wait a minute, doesn't the Saboteurs already know that Xu Xianchu isn't in Stronghold 109? How are you going to explain that?"
Yang Xiaojin paused for a moment before saying, "I was bluffing."
"Hur hur …" In fact, Ren Xiaosu had many unanswered questions in his mind. He was asking Yang Xiaojin for confirmation one by one. "Is Lu Yuan also a member of the Saboteurs? I saw you covering for him earlier. "
"He's not a member of the Saboteurs." Yang Xiaojin said, "He's a member of the Yang Clan. The Yang Clan has always been developing nanotechnology like the Li Consortium because they firmly believe it will be a breakthrough in future individual combat. Actually, what Qing Zhen said is right. The Yang Clan wants nanotechnology in preparation for war."
"Then what's the relationship between the Saboteurs and the Yang Clan?" Ren Xiaosu wondered.
"The Saboteurs were founded by the first superhuman of the Yang Clan." Yang Xiaojin said, "Actually, the relationship between the Saboteurs and the Yang Clan is very complicated. Now, the Saboteurs and the Yang Clan have different philosophies, so they've gradually started parting ways. However, the relationship between the two parties isn't that easy. Actually, the Saboteurs were not called the Saboteurs at the beginning. It was just that everyone called us the Saboteurs, so it didn't matter if we just became the real Saboteurs in these troubled times. "
As for what the relationship between the Saboteurs and the Yang Clan was, Ren Xiaosu did not ask too much. After all, this seemed to be Yang Xiaojin's family affairs.
However, Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. He was just a refugee.
Yang Xiaojin stood in front of a rock and saw someone had carved a strange mark on it with a knife. She took out a metal stick about the length of a finger from her pocket. When Yang Xiaojin pried open the end of the metal stick, a signal flare shot into the sky.
Ren Xiaosu watched this scene quietly. Yang Xiaojin had probably discovered the signal the Saboteurs had left for her. It looked like she was trying to summon her companions.
Suddenly, a vehicle rushed out of a small alley. Luo Xinyu, who was in the backseat of the off-road vehicle, leaned out the window and waved frantically. "Xiaojin, it's a good thing you're alright."
The off-road vehicle stopped in front of Ren Xiaosu and the others. The driver was Lu Yuan. He got out of the car and said to Yang Xiaojin, "Let's go home. We failed the mission this time. Xinyu got the hard drive, but it was snatched away by Fatty Luo."
Yang Xiaojin took out the hard drive from her pocket. "This is a gift from Qing Zhen to the Yang Clan. It seems like he wanted to deepen the conflict between the Yang Clan and the Li Clan. But it's not a problem. The relationship between the two clans is not that good to begin with."
Luo Xinyu cheered, but they were more concerned about how Yang Xiaojin got out of trouble. Yang Xiaojin explained, "Xu Xianchu and Ren Xiaosu joined forces to save me. Xu Xianchu is very strong now, so we need to keep an eye on him."
Luo Xinyu was taken aback. "I saw the battlefield back then. Could the two of them be that lethal?"
"It's mainly thanks to Xu Xianchu, but he's already headed to Stronghold 178," Yang Xiaojin said calmly.
"Oh, then we can go home now." Luo Xinyu teased Ren Xiaosu, "Hey, Ren Xiaosu, do you want to come back to Stronghold 88 with us?"
Ren Xiaosu was stunned. He shook his head and said, "No, I still have to look for my brother."
Yang Xiaojin looked at him. "I have to go."
Ren Xiaosu nodded.
Yang Xiaojin said, "Come to Stronghold 88 after you find Yan Liuyuan and the others. I'll wait for you there."
"OK."
With that, Yang Xiaojin jumped into the off-road vehicle. Lu Yuan stepped on the accelerator, and the off-road vehicle roared into the distance.
Actually, Ren Xiaosu knew they would have to part ways eventually. However, the parting of adults was always light and light. Sadness was something for poets to do.
Those who wanted to reunite would always be reunited.
As Ren Xiaosu watched the vehicle drive away, he suddenly thought of something and shouted, "Give me a ride north!"
However, the off-road vehicle had already driven off.
Snowflakes suddenly started falling from the sky. This was the first snowfall of this winter, and it looked especially heavy. It was as though the snowflakes were trying to wash away the bloodstains on the wastelands.
…
Quite a number of bonfires had been lit at a campsite in the north. Tens of thousands of people were shivering in the cold wilderness, and only the light from the bonfires in front of them could give them some warmth.
Although the Experimentals had tried their best to hunt down the stronghold residents when they attacked the city, there were only about a thousand of them, while the stronghold residents numbered in the hundreds of thousands. Eventually, some of them managed to break through their encirclement.
Moreover, the little girl who was with Li Shentan had also made a move and opened up a path for a group of escapees.
Now that Li Shentan and the little girl named Si Liren were nowhere to be found, the escapees begged the two of them to take them with them before they left. In the end, Li Shentan told them to head north and find a group of people on bicycles so that they could survive.
It sounded more like a little joke that Li Shentan was playing on Ren Xiaosu.
The escapees revered Li Shentan as though he was a god who had saved them. But they did not know that Li Shentan was actually one of the instigators of this disaster. Furthermore, after Li Shentan took revenge on the Li Consortium in Stronghold 109, he did not take any further action. Instead, he set off for the other stronghold cities controlled by the Li Consortium.
It seemed like he was trying to overthrow the entire Li Consortium with his own strength.
Then the escapees encountered a group of bicycles that were repairing in the north. Compared to Yan Liuyuan and the others who were riding bicycles and carrying backpacks, the escapees looked much more miserable.
At this moment, Wang Fugui suddenly said mysteriously, "Liuyuan, I found something good. It might come in handy."
Yan Liuyuan looked at Wang Fugui. "Uncle Fugui, what did you find?"
Wang Fugui carefully took out a deck of playing cards. "See this? It's a box of bombs!"
