"I'm finally back."
Stepping on the wide and flat land of his motherland, Chen Yu felt nostalgic. "I've only been away for more than ten days, but it feels like I've been separated for more than ten years."
"Don't say useless things." Jill's face was gloomy. He took out an electronic product similar to a tablet computer from his arms and swiped it a few times. "There are only a few days left before the deadline for the completion of the mission. The informant who should be connected can't be contacted now. What should we do? "
"Why can't we contact him?" Chen Yu turned his head and asked.
Jill gritted his teeth. "What do you think? We stood him up for more than half a month. How can we contact him when the time is staggered? Do you think it's so easy to be a spy? You can go out whenever you want to? "
"Since that informant is our undercover, how can you be sure that he's not a double agent?" Chen Yu looked up and thought.
"If everyone is as suspicious as you are, all the intelligence agencies in the world can close down." Jill took back the electronic device irritably and looked around. "The informant is gone, and the mission has to continue. Didn't you promise that you have a way before? Now use it. "
"No problem." Chen Yu patted his chest hard and sneered. "Will I, Chen Yu, fight a battle that I'm not sure of?"
As he spoke, he reached out and said to Ba Huang Yao behind him, "Xiao Yao, give me your phone."
"Oh, oh." The girl who had been watching the show came back to her senses. She quickly took out her phone from her backpack and handed it over.
Chen Yu took it, looked down, and frowned. "Still your original phone?"
"Yes." Ba Huang Yao nodded.
"It's too laggy. I can't use it. Where's my phone? "
"It's … It's not laggy anymore." The girl stammered.
Chen Yu pressed his thumb and unlocked the screen. He found that the system was smooth and no longer lagged. "Huh? It's really not laggy anymore. How did you do it? "
"I don't know. It's just that I accidentally fell and it's smooth now. "
"Amazing." Chen Yu was surprised. "It's nature's uncanny workmanship."
Jill: "… Can we talk about this later? The mission deadline is almost up. Hurry up. "
"No problem. When I, Chen Yu, handle things, you can rest assured. "
After making an "OK" gesture, Chen Yu swiped the phone screen and opened the contact list. He quickly browsed through it and was stunned. "Hmm? Where's Duan Ye's phone number? "
"Ah …" Ba Huang Yao blinked blankly. "I … I don't have Duan Ye's phone number."
"Trash." Chen Yu curled his lips. He turned around and took out his phone from the girl's bag. He quickly scanned through it. "Oh, I don't have one either."
Jill: "…"
"I miscalculated!" After a moment of silence, Chen Yu thumped his chest and stamped his feet. "I actually forgot that we don't have Duan Ye's contact information."
Jill: "What does this have to do with Duan Ye?"
"Ah, it's like this." Chen Yu spread his hands and explained, "Duan Ye is now a high-ranking member of the Fair Association. At first, I wanted to enter the headquarters of the Fair Association through him. But now that I think about it, I can't contact him. This is terrible. "
Jill's entire body gradually trembled. "… Are you f * cking evil?"
"Why are you cursing?" Chen Yu was dissatisfied.
"I want to hit someone now." Jill gritted his teeth. "Chen Yu, do you know how important this mission is? In order for you to use 'martial arts' to wreak havoc, the school used a lot of spies and spent too much money! You messed it up just like that?! "
"Is … Is it that serious?" Chen Yu was shocked.
"What do you think?!" Jill roared.
"Don't … Don't hit …" Ba Huang Yao was shocked and quickly went forward to comfort him. "Brother Ji, actually, the matter is still …"
"Call me Jill!"
"Oh, oh, oh, Jill, actually, the matter hasn't reached the worst point."
"Then do you have a solution?" Jill glared at the girl.
Ba Huang Yao subconsciously took half a step back and bit her lip. "… If it really doesn't work … Leave this … Leave this matter to me. If it fails, I'll take responsibility. "
"Leave it to you?"
Jill and Chen Yu looked Ba Huang Yao up and down suspiciously.
Jill: "You can solve it?"
Chen Yu: "You're so awesome?"
BB, who was lying on Chen Yu's body, covered her face and whispered, "Sister Yao is speaking up for you …"
"Sister Yao?" Chen Yu's eyes lit up. "Where is she, Sister Yao?!"
Jill: "Chen Yu!!!"
Covering his left ear to block out Jill's angry roar, Chen Yu lowered his head and touched his stomach. He said seriously, "Is everyone hungry? Let's find a city to eat. "
Ba Huang Yao: "…"
BB: "…"
"… Chen Yu." Jill stared at Chen Yu and suppressed his anger. "From the beginning to the end, did you not want to do this mission properly?"
"No." Chen Yu denied it. "I'm not that kind of person. As a martial artist and the president of the Student Union of Peking University, it's impossible for me not to take the mission handed down by the higher-ups seriously. My principles are very strong. "
"With your current attitude and actions, are you serious about it?"
"Ha …" Chen Yu smiled embarrassedly. "I can't contact Duan Ye."
"… Chen Yu." Jill slowly retreated. He narrowed his eyes and said hoarsely, "You disappoint me too much."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
"Ji … Jill!" Ba Huang Yao looked at Chen Yu and then at Jill, who was walking further and further away. She shouted anxiously, "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to the headquarters of the Fair Association myself."
Bang!
As his last sentence fell, Jill exploded with energy, exploded into a ball of flames, and shot up! He disappeared in front of the three of them.
"Brother Yu, Jill is gone!" The girl turned around and nervously grabbed Chen Yu's sleeve. "Chase after him."
Chen Yu sighed. "There's no need to chase after him. A wild dog that's out of control can't be chased back. "
Ba Huang Yao: "…"
In the distance, Jill's voice was getting weaker and weaker.
"Chen Yu, you're the f * cking wild dog …"
…
That afternoon, 5: 14 pm.
Chen Yu carried BB on his back and brought Ba Huang Yao to a nearby city — Lian City.
This was the largest human gathering place in the northeast region of the country other than Ha City and Yang City.
It was also one of the busiest port cities in the north.
Logically speaking, the population of such an important city should not be less than a million. However, wherever Chen Yu passed, he could only see sporadic merchants and pedestrians.
Scraps of paper, mineral water bottles, colorful plastic bags … drifted with the wind.
Rats, pet cats and dogs, drunkards, bachelors … wandering around.
The entire city was in ruins.
"Is this city going to be abandoned?" Following behind Chen Yu, Ba Huang Yao asked as she looked.
"All cities are actually similar." Chen Yu raised his hand and pointed at a billboard on the roof of a building to the side.
There were a few big words clearly written on the plaque — "Only Shanghai is the hope of survival."
"We've taken the strategic route of concentrating our strength and resisting the Beast Tide. Anyone who can move has gone to Shanghai to escape. Those who are left behind should be dead heads. "
"Will Qingcheng … be like this place?" The girl was in a daze.
"No." Chen Yu waved his hand. "You think too highly of Qingcheng. A small county town is definitely much worse than this place now. Whether or not there are still 1,000 people left is a problem. "
"…" Ba Huang Yao lowered her head and sighed heavily. "I hope this choice is the right one."
"Oh?" Chen Yu raised his eyebrows. "From what you said … you don't agree with the route of concentration?"
Suddenly, the girl stopped and stared into Chen Yu's eyes. "Brother Yu, do you want to hear the truth?"
"Tell me." Chen Yu also stopped and was full of interest. "I want to hear the truth."
"Actually … I never thought that humans could win against the Beast Tide."
"Wow." BB covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Is this what our director said about ZZ being incorrect?"
"Shut up." Chen Yu patted BB's head and continued to look at Ba Huang Yao. "Continue."
"In the past, I was still very vague about this idea." The girl lowered her head. "But ever since I followed you through so many alien realms and witnessed the destruction of so many civilizations. Let me know clearly that the destruction of civilizations should be an irreversible trend. "
"Whether it's the internal strife of civilizations, the invasion of alien civilizations, natural disasters, or the attacks of giant beasts … all kinds of ways are actually just different appearances to complete the final result."
"The forms of so many alien realms also prove this point."
"The entropy of the universe is increasing."
"The lifespan of all things is also limited."
"From microorganisms to stars, their particle kinetic energy will always reach the lower limit."
"It's the same for humans."
Her voice paused slightly. Ba Huang Yao tilted her head and smiled. "So, I think that even if there are no exotic beasts, there will be giant beasts, monsters, and demon beasts. A monkey with an infinite lifespan will always type out the Bible when it hits the keyboard. If a civilization continues to move forward, it will eventually perish. This is an inevitable event. It's only because we're in the middle of this event that it's so hard to accept. "
Pinching his chin, Chen Yu sized up the girl for the second time today and said, "I didn't expect you to be a thinker with basic physics and cosmology knowledge."
"I … I'm just imagining things when I'm alone." Ba Huang Yao lowered her head shyly.
"When I'm alone, I'm also imagining things." Chen Yu patted the girl's shoulder. "But do you know what I think?"
"Brother Yu, tell me."
"What I think is that since a monkey with an infinite lifespan will be able to type out a Bible sooner or later. Then our civilization that has' died 'and' been reborn 'infinitely many times … "
"There will always be one that will last forever."
Hearing this, Ba Huang Yao looked at Chen Yu in a daze. For some reason, the thoughts in her mind were in shock.
BB, who was lying on Chen Yu's shoulder, revealed a knowing smile.
Ever since the moment Chen Yu held her sword in the Qingcheng Alien Realm, she knew that "real" humans would always dare to fight.
She also understood "some" of the truth of the world …
She had also come into contact with the destruction of so many civilizations …
Some people accepted their fate rationally.
And some people … still chose to believe in their ideals and draw their swords to ask the heavens.
The former was the general public.
The latter was the true hero.
