Chapter 5 Chapter 5



It turns out that what was played in the video were the memories in Ni Ji's mind.

The guide forcibly invaded the criminal's mental picture.

Read his memory. And using himself as the medium, under the operation of the brain tank system, it was played live in front of everyone.

But, can the guide actually do such a thing?

The audience is not quite sure.

Most of those here are low-level sentinels who were born civilians.

There are so few of them, and the guides kept in the White Tower seem to them to be something that only lives in newspapers and on television.

They used to think that those guides in gorgeous dresses were just flowers used to decorate the prosperous empire.

It is a delicate and docile ornament that is carefully kept in an ivory tower.

At this moment, the guide in front of them left them stunned.

They feel a little cool on their forehead.

Looking at the prisoner on the platform with his eyebrows and eyes pressed down, his face pale.

Look at that delicate white little hand.

Everyone couldn't help but shudder when they thought about what it would look like if this hand pressed on them.

"Can the guide do such a thing?" The clerk standing in front of the window murmured in disbelief.

She began to feel very upset.

If I had known that Lin Yuan was so powerful that she could directly invade the sentinel's mental image and play back his memory, I should not have let her do this in public.

After all, some things, if they were broadcast, might not look good.

But think about it, as long as we can find the worm jade and complete the task assigned by the big shot above, some imperfections in the details are not a big deal.

That is a whole piece of living insect jade.

It's not dead, nor is it just a small amount of debris. God knows how such a big treasure could be found in that polluted area.

Thinking of this, the office officer became happy again and reached out to push Roy who was sitting next to him, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that your institute has such a great guide?"

Roy rolled his eyes in his signature move, as if mocking these people from the Military Control Office who had never seen the world and were so frightened.

Who knew that Roy himself was biting his handkerchief in his heart.

The little girl was really very talented and I was mistaken about her. I really didn't see anything wrong with her.

On the screen, the burly sentry walked over and sat down in front of the screen.

That is, he sat down next to Ni Ji.

Hand over a steaming drink.

"Captain." The towering sentry smiled sheepishly, "After this mission, can I take some time off?"

Ni Ji turned his gaze to look at him.

"My girl is going to give birth next month." The big sentry smiled and rubbed his head. "This is our second child. It's really too hard for her to be alone at home."

He had a rough look to begin with, and had three scars running diagonally across half of his face, which made his smile look very distorted.

But he loves to laugh. When he laughs, his mouth is wide open, revealing a row of white teeth.

Ni Ji took a sip of the steaming drink and his eyes stayed on the smiling face for a while.

"Yes, this mission was completed successfully. There will be a bonus, which you can take home."

The voice that sounded on the screen was Ni Ji's.

The sound was very pleasant, like an icy spring flowing slowly through a mountain stream, with a calm and steady power.

If you only listen to this voice, you would never imagine that it is a murderer who can shoot someone in the head.

It was time to change shifts, and the female sentry lurking in the tall tree slipped down from the tree like a shadow.

She has a high ponytail and a pair of strong long legs.

When he landed, he crushed a basin-sized human-faced spider that had crawled out from the darkness.

Another short-haired female sentry in the team came up to her happily and handed her a cup of hot food.

The two girls sat down by the campfire holding hands.

"Sister, the captain said there will be a lot of bonuses this time." The girl with short hair said happily, "I want to buy some candies for the brothers and sisters in the orphanage."

"No." My sister held the gun steadily with one hand and drank soup with the other hand without raising her head.

"Why? I really want to see those kids rushing over with joy." The girl with short hair came over and rubbed her rough little face against her sister's shoulder, making the soup in the cup jingle.

"This winter will be very cold, Mama Ma said, the yard is short of coal and food." The long-haired girl put down the cup and counted on her fingers, "Buy some cotton. If there is any money left, I want to buy some medicine for frostbite. Mama Ma's fingers are swollen every winter."

The girl with short hair whimpered unwillingly and lowered her head, looking dejected.

Her sister turned to look at her, reached out her hand, and tucked a strand of her short hair behind her ear.

Finally, he gestured and said, "I can only buy a little."

The short-haired girl with rough skin and covered in mud clapped her hands happily like a real girl.

Noticing Ni Ji's gaze over there, the two girls stuck out their tongues.

After making a military gesture of apology, the elder sister looked at her younger sister with a reproachful look.

There was a little commotion from two or three young sentinels around the campfire.

One of them had his face flushed and his brother next to him clamped his neck with his arm.

"This boy, this boy said he would propose to the girl when he goes back." said the brother who was holding him.

"Is this true? You have solved your personal problems so early?"

"Where is this girl from?"

Everyone around started laughing and asking questions.

"How could this kid know a good family? She's a girl from the red-light district, older than him." Someone said.

The young sentry, who was tucked under his arm, blushed and mustered up the courage to explain, "She, she is a good girl."

"Will a good girl be attracted to us? You silly boy, have you been deceived by a woman?"

The atmosphere began to become lively.

Ni Ji stood up and walked over there.

"Captain."

"Captain Ni."

As the perspective progresses, the vivid faces of the sentinels appear on the screen.

They looked at me with either reverence or trust.

Only the researcher wearing glasses seemed out of place in the team.

He was wearing an expensive non-standard suit, holding a dark backpack tightly in his arms, and sitting alone by the fire, looking a little absent-minded.

Ni Ji's gaze lingered on him for a moment, then passed by.

Finally we arrived at the bonfire.

"As soon as the sun rises, we will leave this contaminated area and end this mission. I have said many times that the closer it is to the final moment, the more vigilant we must be."

Ni Ji's voice was not loud, his words were concise and to the point. But he was very efficient. After hearing this, everyone immediately restrained their relaxed expressions and became alert again.

"I'm sorry, Captain."

"Sorry, Captain."

The sentries who had first caused the noise bowed their heads and apologized.

Ni Ji's gaze fell on the young sentry with a blush on his face. He was the youngest recruit in the team.

"Don't listen to their nonsense." Ni Ji pressed the man's shoulder. "For people like us who put our heads on the waist of our pants, if there is a girl who really wants to marry you, you should treat her well. Background is nothing."

The young sentry's face flushed, but his eyes sparkled.

Ni Ji's gaze passed him and went into the dark distance.

His vision is extremely strong and he can see very far and very detailed things.

He looked up and carefully searched every corner of the darkness, but found nothing unusual.

Only then did he retract his gaze and return to the sentinels around him who were about to complete their mission and return to a safe place, and were already beginning to feel happy.

The orange-red light of the fire hit the faces of the warriors who were talking in low voices.

The tone of the entire screen gradually became warmer.

Outside the screen, all the audience watching this scene can empathize and feel the gradually warming heart of the owner of the sight.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but have an idea in their mind.

Would a captain like this really be willing to kill those people in his sight?

Humans are sometimes easily affected by emotions.

When looking at the memory of the dead researcher.

Everyone puts themselves in the deceased's shoes.

I just felt that the killer holding the gun was hideous, cold-blooded and ruthless. He was an absolutely unforgivable murderer.

At this time, watch the video from Ni Ji's perspective.

Even though they haven't gotten the full picture yet, many people can't help but murmur in their hearts.

This is obviously a very gentle captain. Would he really be willing to kill his brothers?

No, it's probably because of some injustice.

The video composed of memories is not coherent.

After a large amount of snowflakes appeared on the screen, the next set of images was cut to.

Still in that ruin.

Ni Ji stood on a high place, stepping on the edge of the ruins, staring at the dark world in the distance.

In the darkness, there were some faint and strange noises, as if something was running towards this place in groups.

It seemed like it was still very far away, but those things were moving very fast, approaching like a torrent.

Next to Ni Ji stood the towering man and the female sentry with a high ponytail.

"A lot. Very much. Coming directly here." The Iron Tower Man looked solemn.

"How could this happen? Why did so many mutants suddenly appear?" The girl with a high ponytail frowned.

"No time to think about it." It was Ni Ji who spoke, "Give me the inducer."

"Captain?"

"Captain! It's too dangerous."

The two warriors beside him objected in unison.

"Don't talk nonsense, give it to me." Ni Ji stretched out his hand.

This man is an autocratic captain in times of crisis.

He got what he wanted.

He pulled out the short knife he carried with him and drew a rough route map on the ground with a few strokes.

"You go this way. We'll meet up before the exit."

After saying this, his eyes moved back and forth between the faces of the two people in front of him, with a slight hesitation.

"Captain Tagore, my sister and I will cover the rear." The female warrior said first, her voice full of confidence as a strong woman, "My sister and I are the strongest combination in the team except for the captain."

Ni Ji no longer hesitated and waved his hand in agreement.

He turned around, opened the bottle of inducer, poured it over his entire body, and ran toward the dark world with a knife in hand.

Facing the direction where the monsters were rolling in,

"Crazy, is he crazy?"

"Doesn't he want to live anymore? That's a whole bottle of inducer."

The audience watching in front of the screen were shocked. As sentinels, they all knew what the bottle of inducer was.

It is extremely dangerous to use that thing in a contaminated area.

Even if you take out a little bit and apply it somewhere, it will attract nearby monsters that smell the scent.

If a whole bottle of liquid was poured over one's body like Ni Ji did, it would be a disaster.

He would be a moving target, going crazy and attracting all monsters along the way.

Not even a madman would dare to do such a thing.

But he did so, and the entire team had a chance to evacuate safely. Only he was in extreme danger.

The video that follows is very chaotic, with the camera spinning very quickly.

The scene was full of battles that swayed back and forth.

The screen was filled with strange and distorted creatures in the polluted area.

A hairy sickle, a wriggling mass of flesh, a huge blood-red eye...

They surged up one after another.

Broken limbs kept flying up, and the sky was filled with screams that pierced the eardrums.

The screen was covered with thick blood again and again.

The boundaries between the sky, the earth and the screen disappeared.

In everyone's eyes, the only thing left was the captain who was fighting hard.

This captain, with his flesh and blood, single-handedly led away all the monsters.

A man fights alone among a swarm of monsters that block out the sky.

When the bullets were all used up, he pulled out his long sword and cut off the remaining flesh and blood.

He is a well-deserved captain.

Don't die.

Hang in there, Captain.

Get out there, Captain!

This is the cry of the audience in front of the screen.

At this time, no one called him a murderer, and no one hoped that he would fall, even though everyone knew that he would be able to leave alive in the end.

A huge whale appeared beside him.

At first it was like an ox, then like a house, and soon it was shaking the earth like a mountain.

The huge black and white fish, with a pair of eyes burning with purple flames, swam in the air, and its powerful tail fin slapped away the groups of monsters.

The cries of whales rang out like songs, and in such a brutal battle, it seemed like a call from a distant homeland, breaking through the thick despair.

One man and one whale, using their wounded bodies, opened a gap in the monster's encirclement.

breakout.

The picture darkened and then brightened again.

The terrible battle is over.

Ni Ji walked on the street where spores were flying all over the sky, and reached out several times to wipe away the blood that was obscuring his vision.

He walked very quickly, his breathing was clearly audible, and he sounded a little uneasy.

At that moment, when I saw it there.

The breathing sound on the screen suddenly disappeared.

There was an awful silence between heaven and earth.

It is gray there and no longer belongs to living things.

The elder sister hugged her younger sister tightly.

A huge, withered finger pierced through two young bodies at the same time.

No one knew who chopped off the monster's giant fingers, causing the lives of the two to freeze in this state.

In the sky, countless floc-like spores slowly fell, landing on the dead body as gently as flower petals.

The girl with long hair let her hair down, and her long hair spread out, gently covering the person she was protecting in her arms.

It looked like the two sisters fell asleep in each other's arms.

Ni Ji's gaze was fixed on the two bodies hugging each other, but his steps did not stop.

He passed them, he looked away. He ran!

The air around me was in chaos, and the sky was filled with flying spores stirred by the chaotic air, like the chaotic ashes covering the sky and the ground at a funeral.

The dark shadows of ruins and plants quickly receded from sight.

Ni Ji ran wildly in the dark.

The bodies of the warriors gradually increased.

Mixed with the remains of monsters.

How could this happen?

Everyone outside the screen asked the same question in their hearts. Their captain had already tried his best to lead the monster away.

We were almost at the safe exit.

Why are there so many monsters chasing us?

Why did so many people die and so much blood flow?

Some people lay on their backs in the dancing dust, their hollow eyes staring at the sky.

Some people are so disabled that even the most battle-hardened warriors can't bear to look at them.

But outside, on the screen, in the video that is displayed before everyone’s eyes, it is a memory.

Ni Ji, who was running all the way, took a good look at every dead face.

The whole world's color disappeared from his eyes.

The earth was vast and gray.

Only the bodies of those who died tragically, with their intense and particularly vivid colors, remained in sight.

Engraved in memory.

He stopped in front of a still-living sentinel.

Although this warrior has no hope of being rescued.

He was the youngest sentinel in the team, almost a big boy. He was very shy and wanted to marry a girl from the red-light district.

"Captain...Captain." The young sentry saw him.

Ni Ji, who had been running all the way, stopped for him.

"Is there anything else you want to tell me?" He stood there and spoke in an extremely calm tone.

It seemed as if he was the same as before, still the calm, composed, strong captain who could resolve any crisis.

"I, there is a letter under my pillow in the dormitory, put it, put it ..."

"Give it to that girl for you?" Ni Ji asked.

"No, it's not." The older boy tried to raise his arms, but he had no hands. "Burn the letter. Don't let her see it. Don't let her feel sad for me."

Ni Ji looked at him, and after a moment, he gritted his teeth and said one word: "Okay."

The boy started crying, "Give her all my...all the money I have saved. Let her live a good life and change her way of living."

"good."

"Captain, Captain. I still want to be your soldier. I still want to be your soldier..."

He had no other words.

Ni Ji waited for a moment, but heard no other sound. He turned around and walked forward.

Red blood covered his vision again and again, and he no longer raised his arm to wipe it off.

The whole world is a blood-red world.

The disordered breathing sound filled the screen and the ears of every viewer.

The square in front of the screen was silent. The dark sentinels pursed their lips. The silence was eerily quiet.
