The sun sets in the west.
Two figures walked one after the other on the path.
The figure in front stood upright and spoke with great energy, while the one behind him was hunched over and looked exhausted like a dog.
The gray shadows were cast crookedly on the ground.
He Chao was panting heavily, unable to speak, "Xiao Xi, were those people also your friends?"
"I guess so."
Strictly speaking, those were all members of the zombie legion trained by Lao Si. He had asked some of them to stay outside Wuyou Island as spies, which gave He Chao the opportunity to train.
Of course, judging from the results, He Chao, who had just been promoted to level six, still had some difficulty dealing with them.
"I feel like they should be close to breaking through to the high-level zombie stage."
"It seems so." Lin Xi nodded. "How are you? Are you super tired? Go back and get a good night's sleep, and come back tomorrow."
He Chao was unusually silent.
This is unlike him.
Throughout the journey from the past to the present, no matter how tired he was, he would always find something to say to her, even if he had nothing else to say.
Lin Xi sensed something was wrong, stopped and turned around to look back.
He Chao stopped there, his expression seemingly a little solemn.
Lin Xi raised an eyebrow. "Hey, hey, hey, is it really that bad? Although it's a bit tiring, this method is very useful for quickly improving your strength."
The other side remained silent.
Lin Xi said helplessly, "Are you too tired and can't take it anymore? Then we won't go tomorrow."
He Chao shook his head, somewhat disappointed. "I just feel pretty useless. I played all day and didn't win a single game."
Lin Xi's outstretched hand froze in mid-air. Was it because of a setback?
But everyone has lost before, and Lin Xi didn't know how to comfort him for a moment.
Fortunately, He Chao adjusted himself and encouraged himself with great energy, "We'll continue tomorrow! If it doesn't work tomorrow, we'll try the day after tomorrow, and if it doesn't work the day after tomorrow, we'll try the day after that. I'm sure I'll beat them someday."
"I'm afraid that won't work." Lin Xi knew that saying this was a bit of a downer.
But that's life.
Parting and reunion are the norm.
“That’s true. You can’t live with a fake face forever; it would be too uncomfortable.”
Although He Chao really wanted to go back to the Wind Eagle Regiment with her, he also knew that it was almost impossible.
Now that everyone knows Lin Xi's identity, they will be wary of her. Lin Xi won't be happy going back. She might as well be free to roam the world.
He looked at Lin Xi, his lips trembling, but in the end, he swallowed back everything he wanted to say.
never mind.
I promised myself that I would become stronger before I went to find her and protect her, but I am still very weak right now.
He was too ashamed to mention those words again.
I guess Lin Xi has already forgotten about it.
He thought to himself with a touch of disappointment.
He Chao couldn't help but ask, "What are your plans for the future?"
"I'm telling you guys, give it your all! I'm really looking forward to you taking down Worry-Free Island. It's a great place to retire, I really like it."
"Is it here?" He Chao looked towards the sea.
Unfortunately, it's quite a distance from the sea, so you can't see anything.
"The key is that my two friends like it too. Oh, right, did I not tell you? I've already found my dad and my brother." Lin Xi said excitedly, suddenly feeling that this messed-up world was actually quite beautiful.
He Chao looked delighted. "That's great! But do you want to go back because your uncle and brother are there too?"
"Yeah, they've all been a bit of a headache, but thankfully we've found them."
Thinking about the arduous journey, Lin Xi felt a surge of emotion and felt like crying.
This is so frustrating!
Moreover, in a chaotic world, if you don't fight back, you'll get beaten up, so she had no choice but to grit her teeth and train like crazy to be the one to fight.
Fortunately, everything is moving in a positive direction.
However… she looked up and glanced at He Chao.
I thought of Brother Long and Sister Ling.
This is the most regrettable thing that has happened to me these days.
“Once things settle down, you shouldn’t go fighting anymore. Just bring Jiang Yuan and Uncle Jiang and live next door to me!” Lin Xi winked at him.
She remembered everything she had said before.
Although things have changed and people are no longer the same, those who are alive should always learn to cherish the present.
He Chao looked incredulous. "You remember this?"
"Alright, enough nonsense, go back to sleep!"
After chatting with her for a while, He Chao was full of energy again and walked with incredible speed.
Back in the tent, He Chao sneaked over in the middle of the night and, spittle flying, vividly recounted the events of that morning to He Chao.
He Chao said proudly, "That's my sister! Isn't that amazing?"
"Holy crap! You two have only known each other for such a short time and you're already calling each other brother and sister? I don't care, you get me their contact information tomorrow!"
"I'm afraid not, all of her communication devices were lost long ago."
"It's alright, it's alright, let's take her back to the Wind Eagle Regiment, I'll buy it for her!"
He Chao ignored him.
Indeed, a year ago, when the arrest warrant was issued, Lin Xi threw away both her phone and bracelet.
They are afraid of being identified and also afraid of encountering former friends head-on in an adversarial manner.
However, it now seems that the latter worry was unnecessary.
On the third day, Lin Xi took He Chao to continue training with zombies. Around 11 o'clock, He Chao's bracelet issued a notification.
He clicked on it and glanced at it; his expression instantly turned serious.
Sweat trickled down his forehead and into his eyes, which he casually wiped away with his hand.
Realizing something was wrong, Lin Xi asked, "What happened?"
"Xiao Xi, I'm afraid it's time for us to part ways."
Hearing his words, Lin Xi guessed that they were probably going to Worry-Free Island. "Are we leaving now? Shouldn't it be tomorrow?"
"There is an emergency."
Upon hearing these four words, Lin Xi inexplicably panicked.
What does "emergency situation" mean?
The emergency requiring advance notice to Worry-Free Island is that something has happened to the people on the island.
She felt a tingling sensation all over her body.
"what happened?"
When she asked the question for the second time, she didn't even realize that her voice was trembling slightly.
After a moment's consideration, He Chao finally decided to tell her, "It was Yun and Jiang Chuan who were exposed."
"Where did you get this information? Do you know the specifics?"
"The message was delivered by a high-ranking zombie named Apu, who said he was also from the military region."
Apu?
If this is her father's person, then the news is basically true.
He Chao continued, "The situation is not good. He said that Yin seems to be planning to kill them."
"What? Let's go back to your base right away."
...
Yu's small tent was crowded with people, with several powerful figures from the Wind Eagle Regiment and the Blazing Fire Regiment gathered together.
"This matter cannot be delayed; we must set off immediately."
“Captain Yu, I understand how you feel, but at this moment you should remain rational and prioritize the overall situation,” Jiang Wen said.
