Chapter 110
Wen Jinfeng stared at Wen Xin, his dark eyes full of depth, and he did not relax at all just because he was his biological brother, with whom he was closely related by blood.
Adjutant Li Yongming, who had welcomed Wen Xin in City A, also followed Wen Jinfeng this time. Feeling the depressing atmosphere, he fell silent instantly.
However, Wen Xin was unexpectedly relaxed.
No.
Rather than being relaxed, it's more about being calm and at ease.
Li Yongming was surprised. Could half a year of traveling make such a reserved and taciturn young man so calm and composed when faced with a catastrophe?
He would rather believe that he was thinking too much.
Wen Xin did not directly answer Wen Jinfeng's question. He considered his words and asked his brother: "I can explain why, but the consequence is that after you listen to it, you will definitely stand on the opposite side of the enemy of the First Base. Will you still choose to listen?"
Wen Jinfeng couldn't help but let out a soft laugh.
The laughter had no complicated meaning. It was like seeing an innocent child, with a soft and sticky accent, and a worried look on his face, advising adults who often stay up late to work overtime: "You should go to bed early. If you sleep too late, you won't grow taller."
The child meant well, of course, but the purpose of his words was to make people laugh. After the laugh, a feeling of bitterness and complexity arose from the bottom of their hearts.
The grudge between the Wen couple and Dr. Anqi is too profound if you look into it in detail.
Pulling out the radish brings out the mud, and what is involved is not only a secret research project, but even an entire team, the organization the team belongs to, and the more powerful people in the organization.
Wen Jinfeng had no intention of telling Wen Xin about this before, and now he had even less intention of revealing it.
He sneered at Wen Xin's concern: "When survival resources are limited, anyone can be your enemy."
Wen Xin was noncommittal: "Then if it were another case, not only would you be on the opposite side of the First Base, but City A would also be at risk of being dragged into it."
This assumption made Wen Jinfeng hesitate for a moment, but it ultimately did not shake his heart.
The young ruler of City A raised his lips, still with a hint of disapproval: "The City A base is under my jurisdiction. If I fall, the entire City A will definitely be impacted. This is a fact that cannot be avoided."
"What if?" Wen Xin's tone did not change at all, but he suddenly dropped a bombshell, "The people who will stand opposite the enemy in City A are not only the First Base, but more likely all of humanity. Brother, do you insist on listening?"
Li Yongming stood aside and listened, and thought it was ridiculous.
Are all of humanity, so many regional divisions, and so many power organizations a premise that can be mentioned casually?
Wen Jinfeng also looked at the young man in front of him with a look that said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
As his younger brother is his own, Wen Jinfeng didn't want to hurt his self-esteem, so he somewhat suppressed the sarcasm in his eyes.
He was about to speak when Wen Xin's eyes suddenly fixed.
The two people who were close to him didn't see the young man's movements clearly. In just a blink of an eye, the pistol was held in Wen Xin's hand.
Immediately afterwards, a gunshot rang out, like thunder piercing through the ears, and Ding Pingle's sharp scream broke out behind him!
Under the slightly surprised gazes of Wen Jinfeng and the others, Wen Xin walked over without changing his expression.
The soldier who was watching Ding Pingle was a young man who was not as calm as his superior. He jumped up as if his butt was on fire and asked fearfully: "What are you doing!"
Wen Xin ignored his aggressive tone, pulled the angry young man aside, and stepped hard on the half-open stone slab.
Snap!
The stone slab was pressed down, and dirty black blood instantly spurted out from the gap of less than half a centimeter.
Wen Xin then found a stick and moved the stone slab.
What I saw underneath was actually a zombie's palm, which was almost crushed into pulp, and its fingers were still struggling and twitching.
The young man looked at the glowing claws and immediately turned pale with fright.
Wen Xin put the stone slab back and rolled over a few more times with gravity until the zombie's hand stopped moving. Then he patted the shocked young warrior and said, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you that he is a mutant."
There was so much noise around him that Ding Pingle, who would have fainted for several hours, woke up early.
He originally wanted to use his supernatural powers to do something dirty, but he didn't expect Wen Xin to be so sharp and see through his tricks in advance!
The sneak attack failed. Ding Pingle covered his hand with the quilt/bullet-pierced palm, and his fear reached its peak. Seeing Wen Xin approaching him, it was as if he saw a devil: "Don't come over here, don't come over here!"
Wen Xin stepped on his clothes, and Ding Pingle, who was rolling and crawling, stumbled and hit his head on the ground. His face was covered with dust and mud, and he shouted even more panicked.
"I have no interest in torturing people." Facing the piercing magic sound, Wen Xin's eyes were very calm, "But if you keep making noise and attract some people who shouldn't be provoked, who knows what will happen."
Ding Pingle met Wen Xin's eyes, and it was as if someone had suddenly grabbed his neck, and his face flushed red: "I-I-I won't say anything!"
"No, you have to tell me the truth. What is the purpose of the First Foundation sending you into the Black Rift? And why did you set fire in the alien space?"
Ding Pingle's pupils trembled slightly. He covered his palms and said calmly, "What are you talking about? I don't understand at all. What is the First Base?"
To be honest, the scene before him was something Wen Jinfeng had never expected.
His impression of Wen Xin still remained in the past half a year, when the First Base had malicious intentions and offered a sky-high bounty, pushing Wen Xin to the forefront of an extremely dangerous situation.
The young man was unable to withstand the pressure and didn't know what to do. His heart was soft and clumsy, so he put on a playful mask and smiled to comfort him, saying it was okay, it was okay.
Compared to that time, this has changed a lot.
Wen Jinfeng rubbed his eyebrows and took a few steps forward when he saw Wen Xin put the muzzle of the gun into Ding Pingle's mouth, still with that calm and gentle look.
Wen Jinfeng: “…”
Li Yongming: “…………”
Wen Xin said, "I will only give you one chance. If you don't speak up, I will go find someone else. I will always find someone who is willing to speak up."
Ding Pingle: "I really don't know. Even if you ask me, I won't..."
Click.
Wen Xin said nothing and put his finger on the trigger.
In the sight of Wen Xin, Ding Pingle seemed to have seen the ending of his own head bursting, and screamed: "I said, the higher-ups suspect that this mutant is the No. 1 that escaped from the base, so they let us in to interfere and absolutely cannot let it evolve smoothly into a complete form!"
This is consistent with Wen Xin's guess.
He took out the gun and wiped it on Ding Pingle's clothes. He turned around and looked at Wen Jinfeng: "Brother, I still have some questions to ask, but I can't let you listen to them anymore. I'll come to you after this matter is resolved."
The amount of information in the previous sentence was enough for Wen Jinfeng to understand something terrifying upon closer inspection.
He came to his senses and saw Wen Xin had knocked Ding Pingle unconscious again. He seemed to be ready to leave, so he called out to him, "Wait a minute, Wen Xin, explain what happened. What's going on?"
Wen Xin glanced at his brother, walked over silently, and gave Wen Jinfeng a hug.
After being hugged, Wen Jinfeng couldn't speak clearly. His cold face instantly turned red. He scolded: "You, what are you doing? I told you that being coquettish is useless!"
Wen Xin buried her face in his shoulder and rubbed it twice. This time, Wen Jinfeng felt even more at a loss.
As a result, Wen Xin's expression suddenly changed, and he followed suit, chopping his neck nerves with a knife.
Wen Jinfeng's eyes suddenly went dark, and he realized what Wen Xin had done. He stared at the young man in disbelief before he passed out.
Li Yongming never thought that Wen Xin would dare to attack Wen Jinfeng. He took out his gun, frowned, and shouted angrily: "Wen Xin, are you so bold?!"
When the soldiers on standby saw that their leader was attacked, they were all shocked and drew their guns as well.
Dozens of black gun muzzles were pointed at the young man, but the man did not panic. He carefully and gently brushed off the dust on Wen Jinfeng's clothes.
It was also at this moment that Li Yongming realized with shock that Wen Xin had changed.
Wen Xin looked back at him: "Captain Li, do you remember what I said to you at that time?"
Wen Jinfeng was in Wen Xin's hand. Li Yongming didn't dare to move rashly. He tensed up and said, "What did you say? What did you say?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he had a vague impression in his mind.
The young man who had just arrived in City A still had a green face. He stood alone on the steps, facing the cool autumn breeze, and resolutely declared to him that he would climb up until he reached a position where he could protect himself from Wen Jinfeng.
Wen Xin seemed to notice that Li Yongming recalled this memory, smiled, and affirmed: "My thoughts have never changed."
"That skeleton is a mutant that is in the process of evolution. If the First Foundation were to attack it, the area within a dozen miles would be affected. My body has not been strengthened, so I cannot withstand such an impact. Neither can you."
Wen Xin walked in front of Li Yongming and handed the unconscious Wen Jinfeng over to him under the complicated gaze of Adjutant Gao Zhuang. "Leave G City now, the farther the better. I am not scaremongering you. Ah Zi."
The little squirrel lying on the young man's shoulder stood up.
Wen Xin scratched its nose with his finger and said, "Please protect my brother and these people."
The little squirrel patted his chest and assured: "No problem!"
Of course Li Yongming disagreed.
He said that he was directly under Wen Jinfeng and would only obey Wen Jinfeng's orders.
As a result, the young man was not threatened at all: "If you don't want me to, I can let Ah Zi take me away directly, and you still have to chase them."
Mutants that can speak are guaranteed to be A-level.
Li Yongming was not so ignorant of this common sense, nor was he so naive as to think that Wen Xin was joking.
He looked at Wen Xin as if he didn't know this young man at all, with only shock in his eyes.
.
Wen Xin's indifferent smile suddenly broke as he watched the little squirrel take Wen Jinfeng and the others away until their figures disappeared around the corner.
He slapped himself on the face, like an ostrich burying its head in the sand: "...hiss, I'm done, there's no hope."
The scale viper was startled by Wen Xin's reaction and thought something serious had happened: "What's wrong, Wen Xin?"
"I actually knocked my brother unconscious." Wen Xin wiped his face fiercely, muttering with a throbbing heart, "You don't know how petty he is. I once accidentally soiled his suit that he was going to wear when he was giving a speech, and he tricked me into eating half a spoonful of chili powder!"
The scale viper seemed to understand: "Are you afraid of his revenge?"
Before Wen Xin could speak, it bared its fangs fiercely and said, "If he takes revenge on you, I will help you beat him back."
Wen Xin was amused by it and touched the little snake's head: "That's not the case."
The person has already fainted, there is no point in regretting.
According to Wen Jinfeng's habit of controlling everything, he would not let it go unless Wen Xin told him all the truth.
However, the crisis was already upon us, leaving no time for Wen Xin to discuss it slowly.
And his final hypothesis…
The little green snake looked at his stern expression, and suddenly thought of the same thing as him, so he asked carefully: "Wen Xin, what do you mean by being an enemy of all mankind?"
Wen Xin turned around to look at the scale viper, smiled nonchalantly, and tapped its head with his fingertips: "If I hadn't said that, my brother would definitely ask questions, but of course I didn't scare him."
The scale viper's intuition told it that Wen Xin was not telling the truth.
Wen Xin didn't wait for it to continue asking questions, but took Ding Pingle to a hidden place and woke him up.
Ding Pingle woke up slowly and heard the young man's voice ringing in his ears.
"Now we can continue. The First Base is not very meticulous, but at least it is not so frivolous. Besides sending you to the Black Rift to disturb Number One, what other arrangements have they made?"
Wen Xin said word by word: "Remember, I want to hear everything you know, without missing a single thing."
.
For the First Foundation, the appearance of Number One was an unexpected surprise.
Due to the short-sightedness of the head of the A3 nursery, they did not discover this treasure before No. 1 hatched, and missed the opportunity to build trust at first sight.
But fortunately, the subsequent No. 1 did not disappoint everyone.
It survived all the harsh tests, and its various body functions increased rapidly, even possessing the ability to break through biological thresholds, which aroused great excitement among all the researchers involved, and subsequently triggered a craze for No. 1!
Dr. Anzi let out a long sigh: "What a pity! Beasts are just beasts. They cannot understand how unattainable it is to be able to control everything in the world and gain eternal life!"
The assistant glanced at the skin under Dr. Anzi's wrist.
That piece of skin was as dry as orange peel, with countless needle puncture marks and dark purple sutures that looked like centipede streaks.
This is just the exposed part; the body covered by the white coat is even more terrifying.
Thinking of these injuries, which were the result of Dr. Anzi's own experiments, the assistant timidly turned away.
As Dr. Anzi sighed repeatedly, a faint purple light lit up in the dark night sky. Following this, the purple light quickly extended in all directions at a speed visible to the naked eye, outlining a pattern that looked like a linear matrix, full of science fiction.
The onlookers were dumbfounded. Someone discovered that the magnetic field was subject to secondary interference, and various numerical values were jumping wildly, as if they were about to explode the detector.
"What is the First Foundation doing? What are those things in the sky?"
"Something is calling, listen!"
Those roaring are all beasts, or more precisely, mutants.
This group of survivors has already opened up a considerable distance from the black rift in City G, but the existence of the purple matrix net in the night sky has caused the mutants that have escaped here to roar in panic once again.
Someone passionately speculated: "Could it be that the things released by the First Base are more terrifying than the giant dinosaurs in the black rift?"
Back to the first base.
A dozen strong men worked together, sweating and panting, as they moved over a prison cage made of alloy.
The cage fell heavily to the ground with a sudden loud noise. The cloth curtain covering it was torn open, revealing a blood-red mouth and a ferocious beast face. A fishy smell filled his face.
"roar!"
"Ah!" The person who was nearby suddenly fell to the ground, his face pale, and he crawled away three meters away.
The monster in the cage had no idea of being quiet. It let out an earth-shaking roar, and its body expanded rapidly. The alloy railings were stressed and made an unbearable creaking sound, and they even showed a tendency to deform and break!
But before the railings collapsed, the suppressor on the monster suddenly emitted a beeping alarm and released tens of thousands of volts of electricity.
“Roar!!”
The monster howled miserably, and its bloated body shrank instantly.
It lay paralyzed in the cage, looking at the countless white coats around it, its eyes filled with shocking hatred, and for a moment no one dared to approach it.
Until Dr. Anzi came slowly.
Seeing this kind-looking old man without any weapons, the monster reacted violently, its eyes widened, no longer as fierce as before, and retreated in panic.
Dr. Anqi patted the iron cage and said with a smile: "Wow, you looked listless all the way, but I didn't expect you to be in good spirits now."
As he said this, he actually opened the door of the cage.
The escape route was within reach, but the monster seemed to have seen a flood of beasts and growled, "Anqi!"
"Don't worry, kid, I won't come in. I just want to see this rare view with you. Oh, of course, I need you to help me when necessary."
Dr. Anzi stood beside the cage's door lock, raised his eyelids, and looked at the matrix in action: "Think about when No. 1 was fighting with you, it always pressed you down and bit you all over. You probably haven't seen its ferocious appearance, why don't you take a few more looks?"
The monster looked up at the sound.
The matrix was glowing with purple light, casting crystal dust that sparkled like starlight, floating up and down like falling snow.
No matter how hard the monster tried to control its emotions, it couldn't help but show fear when it saw the crystal dust.
The crystal dust continued to float down, and more and more of it fell into the black cracks, causing ripples in the air, and then violent fluctuations.
The black vortex representing the entrance and exit of the alien space began to melt, like an ice cream under the sun, from head to toe, turning into dripping black mud, which gradually dissipated in the air.
The space shield was dissolved, and the pitch-black monster revealed its shape.
Its flesh and scales had grown back, and the bulge on its back had completely opened, but its wings were only half-extended, like two triangular flags hanging on both sides of its spine.
"roar--!"
The beast, whose peace was disturbed, let out a deafening roar. It moved slightly, and the earth shook continuously. It stood up, and its huge body blocked out the sky like a mountain.
Then, the Tyrannosaurus opened its eyelids and looked in the direction of Dr. Anqi and others, its golden pupils extremely cold.
