Xu An is famous in the base for three reasons:
First, she has the highest awakened ability value in the entire base. Second, she can tear off the head of an异种 (alien species) with her bare ha...
Chapter 28 Purification "The Sea Is Really Blue"
The rainstorm subsided a bit, but it was soon followed by a strong wind, blowing through the tall buildings and neon pipes.
The shore was soaked through by the dark purple sea water, with only sticky blood remaining in the cracks of the plywood.
Xu An stood quietly in the sea of corpses and blood, letting the sea water soak his ankles. The blood flowed down his arms and was carried to the endless deep sea.
"0302! Weren't you captured by the base? Weren't you used as an experimental subject and turned beyond human form?"
The person being stepped on by the alien popped his head out, his face covered in blood and mud with a ferocious expression, which was actually a bit funny.
"You're still rushing to help them? What good will it do you? They'll just make you their dog!"
Xu An blinked, his long eyelashes brushing away the water stains on his eyelids, and he glanced at her lightly.
"I'm not helping anyone." She reached out, her fingers twirling a crystal core. "Where did you get this core?"
The woman buried her face in her hair and said nothing.
Xu An smiled, then strode over, grabbed her hair, and forced her to look at him. "You can't get a crystal core of this level from that broken jar of yours. Lin Yu, I've already tacitly allowed you to research alien species. You'd better not mess with me."
As she spoke, she let go of Lin Yu's hair, pulled out a ring from her pocket, and threw it in front of her: "I don't need to say much about the owner of this ring. Sometimes I really wonder if it was because I hit your brain that you think I'm so gullible?"
"You..." The insults were swallowed down his throat. Lin Yu struggled to hold the ring, his strength so strong that it seemed like blood would overflow. "What did you do to her?"
Xu An laughed. "Don't look at me with such murderous eyes. You were the ones who blatantly violated the laws of the land first, and arbitrarily used alien genes to modify humans and androids. Don't you deserve to be transformed into these half-human, half-ghost monsters?"
Lin Yu gritted her teeth, and her rapidly growing nails pierced her fingertips, and all kinds of strange, green flesh slowly appeared on her face.
"What did you do to her?"
"Nothing, just a warning." Xu An looked at her in silence for a moment, and sighed: "I didn't expect that someone like you would care about others so much."
"Lin Yu, you look a bit like a human being now."
"Don't compare me with those things!" Because his chest was heaving violently and pulling on the wound, Lin Yu suppressed a cough, turned his head and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Xu An waved his hand to let the alien that was stepping on her retreat, then he picked up her face and casually wiped the stains off her face.
"You hate people so much, and you hate me too. Could it be that you just want to create a hybrid species?" Xu An smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes: "If you like creating hybrid species so much, why did you use Yin Shu for your experiment back then!"
Her eyes were red as she grabbed Lin Yu's neck and pushed her into the water. The dark purple water poured into her ears and nose, carrying with it the unformed alien eggs at the bottom of the water.
"I didn't kill her because I saw that she had never harmed anyone except her disgusting husband. And you..." Xu An closed his eyes, threw her in front of the flying alien beside him, and said through gritted teeth: "I will pay you back for what you did to Yin Shu."
"Lin Yu, you finally fell into my hands. It's worth my years of hiding in the base."
The rain slowly stopped, and the rolling dark clouds gradually dispersed, leaving behind only a vast expanse of white sky and a terrifyingly silent world.
The dark purple sea water gently rubbed against her trouser legs, as if to comfort and pity her. The alien beside her approached hesitantly. Xu An sighed and shook her head.
"I'm fine." The azure mechanical prosthetic eye flickered in the light. Xu An looked at the sea through it, as if he saw the light blue water lapping against the shore, splashing waves in the distance, and at the end of the deck, a long-haired woman stood quietly, smiling.
But when he closed his eyes again, he saw a pool of dark purple thick water again.
Xu An glanced at the alien beside her, and its "eyes" knew what she was going to do. It hesitated a little, but still used its claws to pick up the unconscious Lin Yu, then spread its wings that were mostly corroded and flew into the air.
A gentle breeze blew by, and a blue light slowly hung in the air. Then, Xu An slowly walked to the deck, opened his arms, and fell down.
The water splashed, and the dark purple water suddenly rolled up, rushing into Xu An's neck like a swarm of insects.
The sky was filled with the roar of alien species, sharp and piercing, as if it was going to break the sky.
When A061 arrived, the deck was being lapped by the azure sea water, and the breeze brought an uncomfortable stench that turned out to be an indescribable freshness.
Everyone got out of the car in a hurry. The falcon circled over the ocean. The sun evaporated a thin mist on the water surface, which blurred the area where the water and sky met.
"The sea water...the sea water is really blue!" someone murmured.
"How did it become like this? Wasn't it still dark purple when we first arrived a few days ago?"
Soon, Falcon's report came through the headset.
"Captain, we've checked. There are no alien species around. Bromine mist concentration is 43."
After the voice fell, the team fell into silence.
The bromine mist concentration was 43, which meant they didn't even have to wear protective clothing. Aside from the base, the protective clothing was practically welded to their bodies, a first.
"Look! What's that over there!" Liao Yizhi opened the canopy on the Falcon, her red hair blowing in the wind. She pointed at the land not far from the deck. "Blue and pink? Is that a flower?"
Xie Shuqin looked over almost subconsciously.
The originally desolate land is now filled with blue and pink hydrangeas. From afar, the different shades of color complement each other, caressing gently in the wind.
Xie Shuqin jumped out of the gravity body and sat on the deck in front of the sea of hydrangeas.
"Clear water and blue-pink flowers..." Baili Yunle sat beside her. "You're lucky! Half of my dream has come true."
Xie Shuqin was stunned and speechless, especially when the overwhelming smell of soil and grass came over her, she always thought of someone unconsciously.
"During the three days since Xu An left, the energy here fluctuated greatly. All sorts of alien species, both running on the ground and flying in the sky, flocked here. She warned us not to come here, but she didn't expect that we were incapable of doing so." Feng Lan also took off his protective suit and squatted on the side drinking a soda. "I think these flowers were brought by Xu An. I didn't expect her to be so powerful on the ground and know so much... Are all bionic people so powerful?"
After hearing the last sentence, the two looked at him speechlessly.
Feng Lan pinched his earlobe and said, "I forgot I was on the list of bionic human researchers."
"But I'm curious. According to current news, androids, especially military androids, were already extinct in the beast tide that took off from the base. Even if Xu An survived due to her formidable strength, why would she stay at the base so obediently?" Baili Yunle muttered. "Besides, she's been staying in the hospital the entire time. If she was already there when she took off from the base, wouldn't she have been locked up there for over a decade?"
Feng Lan was also puzzled: "Also, she doesn't look like she has a mental illness, so why did she stay in Tartarus Mental Hospital for three years? And Yin Xiangrong already knew that Xu An was a android, there's no reason why the base command center didn't know. Since the base can let Xu An stay at the base, why not let her stay in the laboratory?"
"Why can't it be that Xu An was injured?" Xie Shuqin looked at the flowers in front of her and murmured, "Although I haven't seen it, but to force all the surviving humans to run to the base, the beast tide back then must have been very dangerous. No matter how strong Xu An is, she would still be injured and feel pain..."
Xie Shuqin was stunned for a moment: "Maybe, she is just recuperating at the base."
"But she's a android. Isn't the first rule for androids to obey human orders?"
Several people were suddenly stunned.
Feng Lan glanced at the researcher who was still collecting biological samples not far away and lowered his voice: "Have you ever seen Xu An obey orders?"
Baili Yunle shrugged. "I've seen her react strongly to blood, especially to Jie Shuqin's blood."
Xie Shuqin subconsciously touched the side of her neck.
"But none of us have ever seen a bionic man, so we can't jump to conclusions right now." Feng Lan spun the soda bottle intermittently. "Perhaps there are bionic men who only obey the orders of a specific person?"
"After all, there are..." Xie Shuqin paused, looking to the side awkwardly, "and bionic people with similar functions. If we listen to everyone, it would be too..."
"What are you thinking about now?" Baili Yunle patted her shoulder. "Let's go. The biological gene sampling here is over. It's time to go to the next place."
Xie Shuqin sighed, picked a flower and placed it in the gravity body before standing up.
The alien species in the city seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. A061 drove straight along the main road and soon reached the center of the city.
Because of the ravages of the rainstorm, there were messy dead branches and silt everywhere, and the gorgeous aerial platform was also hung with bones blown in from nowhere.
After passing through layers of stone roads, A061 soon arrived in front of a huge circular building.
The building is oval in shape and is made of one-way windproof glass on the outside. It looks like a dark ball from the outside, but the moment you step in, sunlight shines in from all directions. There are no light strips in the entire building. Except for the first floor, other floors are made of transparent glass. Only a few black and white staircase handrails let people know that this is not a room that runs through from top to bottom.
"It's incredible that there is such a design. What is this building used for?" Liao Yizi seemed extremely excited, holding his gun and looking around.
Baili Yunle said disdainfully: "The humans on the ground really have nothing to do. In a place like this, even going to the toilet would be a problem."
Xie Shuqin rolled her eyes.
Liao Yizhi tsk-tsk-tsked, "Don't spoil the fun, little yellow-haired boy."
Feng Lan quickly interrupted them: "Everyone, pay attention! The coordinates sent by the base are in this building. Everyone, pay attention and search carefully. If you find any aliens, fight them. If you can't defeat them, run away immediately."
"Yes, Captain!"
