As we got closer and closer to the top floor of the Emperor building, the attacks from the zealots decreased until they completely disappeared. It was like the calm before the storm.
Gu Long had once said, "Man's thoughts are never free." At that moment, my mind was uncontrollably filled with many strange thoughts.
Since I learned how to drive a motorcycle and use a gun from the Reincarnation Dream, does that mean I have other hidden skills that I haven't awakened?
Now that I think about it, what did I do in the Reincarnation Dream?
Driving a snowmobile, collecting survival kits, using guns to deal with ferocious mutated beasts, and listening to Xiao Yin reading literature to me in bed.
After I woke up from the Reincarnation Dream, I became more 'hipster' compared to before. Xiao Yin didn't read literature for nothing.
There weren't many things to do in the apocalyptic world. Eating and sleeping couldn't be considered 'skills'. Was driving a motorcycle, using a gun, and improving my literacy in literature the only thing I gained in those 18 months?
Wait … it seems like I didn't only do those three things, Xiao Yin also did those things in bed with me in addition to reading literature to me in bed.
In the later stages of the Reincarnation Dream, in order to break out of this virtual world, I went all out and did it again and again with the virtual girls. From this point of view, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that I had eighteen months of erotic dreams.
Does that … count as a skill? Could it be that in addition to motorcycles and marksmanship, I also practiced my … bed skills in the reincarnation dream?
Damn! I didn't get to that stage with any girls in the real world, but my body has already become an expert in the brothel? How can a virgin like me endure that!
Constable Ma's words interrupted my thoughts.
"Ye Lin, even though you just saved my life, I've never been biased in my work as a police officer. If you commit a crime in the future, I'll throw you in jail at all costs!"
"It's fine." I said indifferently, "I didn't just shoot to save you, so don't worry about it when you arrest me."
Actually, I doubt Constable Ma will have the 'authority' to arrest me in the future. Ai ShuQiao didn't give me the antidote for BWK yet. If the situation continues down the worst path, Ai Mi and I might become classified research material for a government since we both have special blood.
"Did you learn to shoot to protect your sister?" Constable Ma was abnormally talkative today. He asked me as if he wanted to confirm: "Seeing how decisive you were with your gun, did you kill someone to protect your sister?"
When I thought back to Zheng Weizun who died because of the Dark Angel, my face was filled with vicissitudes of life. I said to Constable Ma half-jokingly:
"I did kill someone … but I didn't use a gun. I prefer to break the other party's cervical vertebrae and listen to the lovely cracking sound from up close. "
"Lin, you're wrong. That voice isn't cute at all. Furthermore, after that, the other party's body will become soft, making you feel a little disgusted."
Peng TouSi, who had experience in the death arena, said to me in a chatting tone, while Constable Ma's gaze towards us became even more terrified.
"You two criminals are actually exchanging killing experiences in front of a criminal police officer?"
No one responded to Constable Ma's words. After exhausting a lot of our stamina, the three of us finally pushed open the security door of the 49th floor and stepped into the dangerous corridor of the top floor.
There was no one at the reception desk on the top floor where Su Qiao used to sit, nor could we hear the sound of the forced rabbit's wheels rubbing against the carpet. Only a third of the lighting on the ceiling was working normally, and sparks would pop out from time to time. It gave us the illusion that we were inside a damaged spaceship, and an alien could rush out from a dark corner at any time.
I don't know when, but the Black Holy Infant's roar no longer came from the speakers, but this strange silence made us even more vigilant.
The three of us no longer spoke and slowly moved towards the computer room. Other than Constable Ma and Peng TouSi, I also picked up a pistol from the ground to prevent a repeat of the previous dangerous situation.
"This is!?"
After turning a corner, Constable Ma looked at the five special forces members lying on the ground at the end of the corridor and let out a sigh of astonishment.
"I can't believe a fanatic of the Church of Scientific Happiness could …"
He stopped mid-sentence because a sharp glint of a blade was reflected in the darkness. A masked man in black walked out from his hiding place.
Even though there wasn't enough light, I immediately recognized his movements.
"That's Huo Jiangdong, Xiao Qin's brother!" I exclaimed, "He was brainwashed by Ai ShuQiao with BWK. Everything he does is not of his own will!"
The groan of a special forces member came from the carpet, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that Huo Jiangdong was still alive.
"There's anesthetic on the blade, I was ordered not to kill anyone for now." Huo Jiangdong spoke in a deep and hoarse voice. Even though he went through plastic surgery, his vocal cords that were corroded by the acid still haven't recovered.
"Don't help Ai ShuQiao anymore!" I shouted, "If Wang Xiuwu can resist BWK with his own willpower, you can definitely do the same!"
"Who's Wang Xiuwu?" Constable Ma asked Peng TouSi, "The other international assassin who likes to exchange experiences with you guys?"
"My current direct superior isn't Ai ShuQiao, it's the Black Holy Infant." Huo Jiangdong replied without any change in emotion, "I was ordered to guard the Emperor Building and protect it from being destroyed by others when an abnormal event occurs."
I figured my verbal cannons would never reach the level of a Japanese male protagonist, so I gave up on trying to persuade Huo Jiangdong to betray me.
"Try not to aim for vital points when you fight him." I whispered to Peng TouSi and Constable Ma, "Killing him is the last thing I want."
But after Huo Jiangdong gave an order to his companions, I realized the battle might not even happen.
A girl wearing Qing Zi High School's uniform was pushed into Huo Jiangdong's arms. Huo Jiangdong held the blade in a reverse grip and pressed the tip of the blade against the girl's throat.
"I'm sorry, it's because I'm too stupid that I got caught."
Gong CaiCai's entire body was trembling like a sieve, her entire face had lost all color, and large beads of tears fell from her cheeks like pearls from a broken necklace. She simply cried until she became a tearful person.
"Put down the gun and let Ye Lin come with us." Huo Jiangdong ordered as he held Gong CaiCai hostage.
"How did you catch Gong CaiCai?" I still held the gun in my hand, "Gong CaiCai should have a lot of people protecting her. Xiao Qin … your sister is one of them, don't tell me you …"
"I didn't catch Gong CaiCai." Huo Jiangdong replied, "You can only blame your friends for being too careless. They thought they would be safe once they left the building and ignored the fact that there were a lot of our people in the parking lot. Xiao Qin placed the unconscious Gong CaiCai into a car and didn't guard it, so our people found a loophole. "
"I'm sorry, I'm causing trouble for everyone. Sob sob sob ~ ~ I was born to be a burden. "Gong CaiCai cried," Don't worry about me, just let me be killed. Even though I don't understand what's going on, I'm going to be killed without any reason … "
At this time, a building security whispered something into Huo Jiangdong's ear. Huo Jiangdong raised his eyebrows: "They chased us?"
"Who chased us?" I asked, "Is it Xiao Qin and the others? Did they enter the building to search for Gong CaiCai after they found out she was missing? "
"That's none of your business." Huo Jiangdong snorted, "Only our people can take the elevator up and down, anyone else would be trapped by the Black Holy Infant. Even Xiao Qin can't rush from the bottom to the top in a short amount of time. "
Did Xiao Qin really come back? I became anxious. Although it was unfortunate that Gong CaiCai was kidnapped, the situation outside the building was not any worse than the inside. I can't blame Xiao Qin for Gong CaiCai's momentary negligence.
Gong CaiCai became a hostage, even if Xiao Qin came back, it wouldn't be of any help. Unfortunately, there was no way to communicate with her right now. I could only hope that Xiao Qin wouldn't encounter any danger.
"Can you let Gong CaiCai go if I go with you?" I tried to negotiate with Huo Jiangdong.
"No." Huo Jiangdong coldly refused, "But I can allow them to safely leave the top floor."
Huo Jiangdong wasn't bluffing. There were at least thirty fanatics lying in ambush on both sides of him. Each of them were holding light and heavy weapons. Even if Peng TouSi and Constable Ma could fight ten people at once, there was still a gap of ten people that I couldn't fill. Most importantly, the enemy had Gong CaiCai, so we had to be careful.
"You're saying you're following the orders of the Black Holy Infant?" I vaguely thought of a way to win without sacrificing Gong CaiCai, but I haven't thought of all the details yet.
Huo Jiangdong nodded, "It's just that my companions don't like me calling him the Black Holy Infant, although in my eyes, there isn't much difference between 'Holy Infant' and 'Black Holy Infant'."
"Then bring me in front of the Black Holy Infant." I bent down and placed the pistol on the carpet. Then, I raised my hands in a surrender position, "Don't hurt Gong CaiCai. Let Peng TouSi and Constable Ma leave safely. After that, I'll walk over to you."
"Lin, you can't go." Peng TouSi stopped me in a low voice, "I promised Miss Ai Mi to protect you. If you and Constable Ma can restrain Huo Jiangdong, I can take some risks to take care of the thirty fanatics."
I saw courage in Peng TouSi's eyes, but this courage made me sigh:
"It's not taking some risks, it's probably sacrificing your life. You're a very important person to Ai Mi, I don't want anything to happen to you. "
"But you're more important to Miss Ai Mi."
Peng TouSi's powerful hand held my shoulder. The power he unintentionally used even made me feel a bit numb.
What a reliable person. Ai Mi didn't become as cold-blooded and heartless as her mother under Ai ShuQiao's education. It can be said that Peng TouSi deserved a lot of credit.
"Don't misunderstand." I lowered my voice and told Peng TouSi, "Ai Mi would be very sad if I died, so I can't die in vain. The Black Holy Infant doesn't want to kill me in one go, otherwise the enemy could shoot right now. What he really wants is to torture me, and once I'm brought in front of him … "
I pointed at my temple with my index finger.
"Something in here will allow me to turn defeat into victory."
