Gu Li stayed in Cecil's church for a whole night, and only stopped when the Blue Monk organization finally stopped after more than half of the nutrient solution he brought back was used up.

She took a deep breath, put her hands on her hips, looked around at the people in the room, and leaned weakly against Cecil. The red-haired girl with unusually fluffy hair caught her.

Cecil supported Gu Li's deliberately relaxed body and asked worriedly, "Are you alright? I told you to rest and take it slow, but you wouldn't listen!"

Gu Li's light-colored head nestled in her arms before she looked up and smiled, "But time is running out. After all, it's war. Everyone wants to return to human form in times like this, right?"

She didn't want to talk about death.

Two young men standing together with similar faces suddenly chuckled at the same time. One of them strode over and reached out to pinch her face.

His voice was unusually loud: "We should have been buried fifty years ago. Even if we die here this time, it doesn't matter."

After saying that, Lancer's voice suddenly dropped: "But you can't."

Lan Meng leaned against the wall, a black robe covering half of his face, and a semi-transparent sphere was vaguely visible in his hand.

"I already said there wouldn't be any problems, so why don't you listen to me?"

Gu Li sniffed, got up from Cecil's arms, rolled her eyes at Lan Meng Lanse, and slapped Lanse's face with one hand.

"Stop talking such discouraging things," she said, looking at Lan Meng leaning against the wall. "And you! Stop playing with the crystal ball all the time. It's time to set off with your brother."

One by one, the familiar figures inside the house gradually disappeared, while the dark shadows that gradually gathered outside the door overshadowed the moonlight, and under the guidance of the crowd, they vanished into various parts of the city.

Gu Li exhaled in the suddenly quiet room, her eyes fixed intently on Cecil. She held Cecil's hand, her sky-blue eyes gazing into his brown eyes.

"Our rear is in your hands, Cecil."

Gu Li took out a bottle filled with blood from his pocket and gently placed it in her hand. Before she could refuse, he held her hand and said, "I don't know if my blood is as good as He Shiyi's. Consider it as a way of repaying you for taking care of me all this time. When the time comes... don't force yourself."

Cecil felt a surge of warmth in her heart as she looked at Gu Li's serious expression, and even felt a little like laughing. She followed her heart and laughed happily.

"Don't worry, I still want to go out and have some fun with you after the war. I heard Little Cotton Man is nice?"

Gu Li stroked his chin and nodded seriously: "Yes! Little Cotton Man is super gentle and very cute. I didn't expect Levi to be like this. His little sister is not bad at all."

Cecil looked at the still-childish girl and, with an air of authority, spoke to Levi's sister in the tone of an elder, his lips trembling slightly.

After a while, she suppressed a laugh and patted Gu Li on the shoulder: "Did you know that Levi's sister is only ten years younger than him?"

Gu Li's smug expression froze, her eyes widened suddenly, and she jumped up exaggeratedly: "Levy must be almost seventy years old now, right?!"

Her adorable little cotton ball?!

When they were at the residence, she always acted like an elder in front of Xiao Mianhua. No wonder Xiao Mianhua would pat her head with a smile under the watchful eyes of her manager!

What should she do if her lovely and gentle friend suddenly turns into a kind and approachable elder?

Cecil calmly stroked Gu Li's sad dog head and comforted him, "Considering the average age now, Vivian is still very young."

Gu Li lay sadly in Cecil's arms, nuzzling him affectionately, and said hopefully, "Do you think it's possible that Levi made a mistake? Little Cotton is so cute, how could she be his sister?"

"Being my older sister wouldn't be so bad..."

Suddenly a shadow fell over her head, her neck tightened, and then her body felt light.

Gu Li was lifted up in a very familiar position. He sighed expressionlessly and strained to meet those impatient green eyes.

"Didn't Eric say I had an hour of rest time?"

The man who suddenly appeared looked down at her, his shadow cast on the door frame behind him, his thick tentacles waving wildly.

“Eric also warned me not to spoil you too much. Now, as the older brother who was disliked for being too old and almost had his sister taken away by someone else, I have every reason to enforce this.”

As Gu Li struggled, Levi nodded to Cecil, and the two disappeared into the church amidst their bickering.

Cecil stood quietly for a while in the newly lit consultation room, held the bottle in his hand up to the light, and then carefully put it back in his pocket.

Where did Gu Li obtain such powerful blood from...?

The First Legion in the south of the city had already begun its orderly movements as the sun was just rising above the horizon. Celine, dressed in a neat silver-black uniform, stood at the highest point, inspecting his subordinates.

The cloak with silver patterns on the back fluttered in the wind.

Some dark shapes gradually appeared on the sea in front of their base. The drones they had sent out had already transmitted back the scene from hundreds of nautical miles away. Those iron-black behemoths with huge chimneys were moving in this direction.

Now, all that's here are countless deep-sea creatures being driven in front of the ships. Most of them have sticky tentacles and are entangled together in a way that is hard for humans to accept, constantly heading towards the shore.

Celine withdrew her gaze and took a deep breath: "The large number of mutants ahead will be handled by the Eleventh Army. We need to set up our formation and firearms as soon as possible before Bellamy appears."
