Chapter 335 I Know! (Chapter 33 of the Next Victim)

"Gu Chi, stop for a moment..."

"I... um~"

In the small abandoned factory, Evelya was tied up by Gu Chi again.

Her fair skin was stained with wet stains, reflecting the moist light. Sweat beads slid down her bound snowy neck and dripped into her delicate and delicious collarbone. Her collar was soaked, and the fine hair by her ears stuck to her face in a messy manner, like a girl panting after intense exercise, with a pure desire of youthful vitality.

But her eyes didn't match this look, as if she wanted to kill someone.

Evelya bit her lips tightly, not wanting to make a sound, but this current was very strange. Unlike ordinary electric batons or torture chairs, its voltage was not that high. It could make people lose strength without fainting. The stinging was accompanied by numbness, and each feeling was particularly clear.

Evelya tried her best to endure, but her throat still couldn't help but let out a low moan of pain and happiness.

The only thing she could do was to stare at Gu Chi in shame and anger, using her eyes as knives to chop this bastard into pieces and put him in the pot to make soup!

Not only did they tie her up, they also put a collar on her, and then shocked her after putting the collar on her...

She had never been bullied like this before!

She had obviously lost the ability to resist, but this man still refused to stop, just wanted to torture her on purpose!

Avreya's stubborn temper also came up, and she no longer asked Gu Chi to stop. Taking advantage of the gap between the two currents, she quickly cursed: "Pervert!"

Gu Chi: "Well cursed, who invented this thing, what a pervert!"

Avreya: "?"

Didn't you find someone to customize it yourself? ?

In fact, it's not.

Customization is customization, Gu Chi just wants to make the person wearing the necklace lose combat effectiveness at any time, but Colledona seems to have spontaneously integrated extremely high-intensity simulated bioelectric current into it, which can stimulate people's senses and accelerate the operation of some physiological systems.

In short, it adds a fun function.

He is very serious, but he can't stand Colledona's dishonesty.

In order to prove his innocence, Gu Chi called Colledona in front of Avreya.

Colledona had just finished playing a game and died. She answered the phone quickly, cursing: "Fuck you, I told you to rape me but you didn't, but you insisted on killing me... Hey, big brother?"

Gu Chi said seriously: "What's the matter with the optical necklace I asked you to make last time?"

"What's the matter?" Colledona didn't understand, "Can't it be a collar?"

"It can be changed, but why is the current a sex-themed one?" Gu Chi asked.

Colledona: "You didn't tell me what style you wanted?"

Gu Chi: "You just assumed it was a hobby because I didn't tell you, right?"

"What else?" Colledona asked curiously, "Aren't custom collars made these days for excitement? Do you want to give them to your dog?"

Avreya: "?"

Colledona: "Hiss... Thinking about it this way, it seems more exciting?"

Gu Chi: "?"

Is this the female doctor in the cyber age?

"Are you free now? Send the robot over, and bring some radiation-proof paint." Gu Chi said.

"Okay, brother, I'll be there tonight!" Colledona actually didn't have time - she had cashed the check given by the Kimchi God of War, made an appointment, and was going to set up a private bionic technology institute, but she didn't forget where her money came from. Without her eldest brother, she wouldn't have the 500 million. Her eldest brother is her biological brother, and her biological brother's affairs always come first!

After hanging up the phone, Gu Chi spread his hands to Evelya: "See, I didn't lie to you. I really didn't mean to shock you like this."

As soon as he finished speaking, his hand accidentally touched the quick discharge button on the phone screen.

Evelya was about to speak.

"Zizi."

"Hmm"

Gu Chi: "..."

Freya, who was tied up, curled up on the ground, her face bloodshot, she wanted to die, her eyes full of shame and anger: "You did it on purpose, pervert!"

Gu Chi: "Not this time."

Evelya: "You mean it was always like this before? Once perverted, perverted for life!"

Gu Chi: "..."

There is also a warranty, right?

Gu Chi was not justified, and snorted: "I just thought it was fun and pressed a few more times. It's better than you asking me to lick your feet."

Evelya said angrily: "This is worse than licking your feet!"

Gu Chi: "?"

If you say that, I won't be polite.

He walked in front of Evelya and pretended to take off his shoes.

"Wait, what are you doing!" Evelya instinctively wanted to step back, but her hands and feet were tied with ropes, so she couldn't step back and could only struggle and squirm.

"Didn't you say you wanted to lick my feet?" Gu Chi said, "To satisfy you."

Evelya said angrily, "I said you lick my feet!"

She would rather have her feet played with by Gu Chi than be tortured by bioelectricity.

Gu Chi smacked his lips, "Miss Evelya is really good at finding a way out for herself. It's obviously you who want to be licked, but you're saying it as if I'm forcing you to satisfy me."

Evelya's face flushed, "I didn't!"

Gu Chi: "You underestimated Professor Gu, didn't you?"

Everyone has a desire to conquer, not to mention that his major is psychology, and he can see through Evelya's little thoughts at a glance.

If he were a jailer, this could really be made into a strategy point. People with arrogant personalities naturally lack some resistance to arrogant things. They care more about their own superior attitude. How many princesses and saints were deceived and coaxed into the abyss step by step.

It's a pity that Gu Chi is not a jailer.

He prefers Xia Leng.

Of course, Avreya would not admit this, just like Hattori's burial skills of drawing a gun were exposed and she still insisted that she was Hattori Shangxiang. No matter what Gu Chi said, she was forced!

Gu Chi looked at Epfreya's miserable look and was a little amused: "Why didn't you log off the line even though you knew you would be tortured?"

This is also one of the reasons why he has been playing with the electric shock collar. Avreya will quit the game on her own if she can't stand it anymore, so there is no need to worry about overdoing it.

Avelia bit her lip and said stubbornly: "No."

She is willing to admit defeat, as long as Gu Chi doesn't touch her randomly, she won't be unable to afford it.

"Okay, you have arrogance." Gu Chi quite appreciated Avreya's unruly attitude, and stopped teasing her, saying, "Well, I'll give you two choices. One is to continue to be tied up and look at me. Clear the level, and secondly, I will untie you, and you will help me, and it is your choice."

"You want me to listen to you?" Avreya said in a provocative tone, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Gu Chi discovered that Avreya and Xia Leng were somewhat similar. One was a princess in distress, and the other was a fairy in distress. Both of them were the type that refused to give up. They looked like I would bite you to death if you let me go.

Avelia does have this strength. Gu Chi knows that he will most likely not be the girl's opponent in a fight, but...

"I only said to loosen the restraints, but not the collar?"

Avreya: "?"

Gu Chi blinked: "This necklace suits you very well. It looks good on you."

Avreya: "???"

Have you tried it yourself before saying this?

"Okay, let's choose quickly." Gu Chi urged, "We still need to set up a tent."

Avelia gritted her teeth slightly: "I choose the second one."

One less shackle counts as one less shackle, and at least it's not that shameful if you're not tied by a rope.

She knew that Gu Chi probably had no good intentions and might want her to die, such as going to the radiation zone and throwing the Slayer's head out as he told Kimchi War God before, but even so, it was better than being played with by this man.

What if Gu Chi's eyes were so dim that he didn't notice her little movements and asked her to cut open the Slaughterer's head and take out the chip?

Although it failed to make this man feel at home, the result was good. Rounding it off, it was considered a cut-off.

"Okay, I'll untie you."

Gu Chi knelt down and motioned for Avreya to turn over and lie down a little.

The end of the rope is at the waist behind the girl's back.

This time it's not turtle bondage, but as long as the rope is untied, it will inevitably come into contact with the girl's body.

The temperature on Gu Chi's hand was not high, just normal body temperature, but Avreya's clothes were already wet with sweat, and felt cool against his skin. The contrast between cold and hot made his palms feel particularly hot. people.

Avelia felt as if something was burning her waist. She accidentally couldn't hold it back and let out another soft groan.

"Hmm~"

Gu Chi: "?"

Avelia: "..."

Her face, which had just subsided from fever, was visibly warming up again. It was redder than the sunset in the sky, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Gu Chi's eyes were strange: "Don't you have some strange physique?"

He thought of a certain cat girl.

Avelia was so ashamed and angry: "It's not your fault!"

If Gu Chi hadn't been shocking her, would she have become so sensitive?

Besides, this is not her body, it is just a bunch of data calculated by Xiao Poyou. If there is any problem, it is also Xiao Poyou's problem and has nothing to do with her.

She is a mature and elegant woman, how could she have such a strange habit?

Gu Chi nodded: "It's better if you don't, otherwise I would have really taken advantage of you just now."

Avreya: "?"

So what if it’s cheap, how else do you want to play?

"Get up, move your body, and go set up the tent." Gu Chi untied Epfreya, turned the collar back into a necklace, and assigned the girl the first task.

This is really treating her as a subordinate.

Avelia glared at Gu Chi bitterly, but in the end she said nothing and chose to be obedient.

People are forced to bow their heads under the collar.

She endures it!

Gu Chi walked to a higher pile of ruins and took out his telescope to explore the west side again to see if there were more doomsday figures.

He always felt that this S-class team mission was a bit too simple.

The last time I came to Horizon was in the team mode of S difficulty. They were also fighting robots, but they had to find the key props for Kα alloy by themselves. When compared horizontally, this copy was missing a whole link.

The battle process was more than a little easier.

If he hadn't copied a bunch of "insecticides" in the last dungeon and sneaked into the Qingguang Building to start a group fight according to normal procedures, at least half of them would have died, and they might not have been able to defeat them.

At first, Gu Chi thought that crossing the level 10+ radiation zone was one of the difficulties of the mission, but Lemon Dog directly lured the Slayer over, and the situation was different - although he still had to go in to enjoy the radiation if he wanted to get the chip, but this was theirs What these players did by themselves cannot be counted in the difficulty of the mission itself.

In addition, the flat land guarded by the Slayer is also a bit strange.

The historical map found by Avreya showed that this location should be Argo City, where the headquarters of Qingguang Enterprise was once located. Even if the two maps have different versions and there are errors, they will not be too different. There is no reason to connect one and a half bricks. The tiles are nowhere to be seen.

It was as clean as if someone had wiped it off the ground with an eraser.

"The tent is set up, man." Avreya shouted from a distance.

The sound sounds a bit muffled.

Gu Chi went back and found that Evelya had set up the tent in a pit.

This was the pit that Ai Qing had blown out with artillery in the afternoon. It was more than half a meter deep, and only half of the tent could be seen inside.

Gu Chi: "... You really know how to choose a place."

"What do you know? The pit can block the wind." Evelya said.

The coldest thing on the surface at night is the wind. At the same ambient temperature, people will feel more than 50% warmer without wind.

Gu Chi looked at her in surprise: "You know so much?"

Evelya: "I can't compare to you. After all, you are a man who can turn a necklace into a collar."

Apparently she was still upset about Gu Chi's fake gift. If it weren't for this necklace, the person setting up the tent now would not be her, but Gu Chi.

She would definitely be more careful when dealing with this man in the future.

"That's not a choice, who made you so powerful?" Gu Chi looked innocent, "I can't beat you, so I can only use some tricks to win."

He spoke very artistically. It was obvious that Evelya was a step behind and was careless and didn't dodge, but he didn't mention it at all. Instead, he showed that Evelya was too strong and he had to resort to this last resort. Evelya felt much more comfortable after hearing this, and even her sullen expression became a little more cheerful. She hummed softly: "I paved the ground under the tent with gravel. There is a sleeping bag and it won't hit you. You can sleep without worry."

She didn't say anything like "It's good to know that I'm powerful", otherwise it would be suspected of being arrogant.

Her relationship with Gu Chi is not to the extent that she can use such words to act like a spoiled child. They are no longer in a relationship now. An elegant and mature woman should know the limits.

"There is a problem." Gu Chi looked at the tent in the pit and said, "You only set up one tent, where do you sleep at night?"

Evelya: "?"

Of course they sleep together.

She brought a family tent with her, which had plenty of space. One person could roll on one side, and they couldn't roll together even if they rolled a few times.

"If you brought a tent, take it out. I can build another one." Evelya said.

Gu Chi: "I really didn't bring this one."

His original plan was to finish the game before tonight, and if he couldn't finish it, he would go back to the camp. But Coledona made the necklace into a toy, which aroused his interest. He accidentally played for a while longer, which delayed him a little. If he went back to the camp, he would have to move around late at night, and it would be easy to freeze to death, so he could only camp on the spot.

"So it's your fault." Gu Chi concluded.

Evelya: "?"

You played me too much and you still blame me?

Gu Chi had a reason: "Even if this matter is not your fault, it was always your idea for Ai Qing to kill the slaughterer in the radiation zone, right?"

Evelya: "..."

There is no argument about this.

Then I won't argue.

"Let's eat." Evelya said calmly.

There is nothing to be shy about sleeping in a tent. It will be the same if Gu Chi falls into her hands. The only difference is whether she bullies Gu Chi or Gu Chi bullies her.

"I didn't bring any food." Gu Chi said expressionlessly, as if three words were written on his face: freeloader.

"Then starve." Avreya looked at him with disdain.

Then she took out two self-heating hot pots from her bag and threw one to Gu Chi.

The sky was gradually getting darker and the temperature began to drop. I had to turn on the heater.

But...

Gu Chi still didn't bring any.

Avreya: "?"

"Why didn't you bring anything?"

"Who said that?" Gu Chi took out a box of condoms, "I brought this."

Avreya: "???"

"Are you Lin Zi'an or Gu Chi?"

Gu Chi: "Gu Zi'an."

Avreya: "..."

In fact, Gu Chi didn't bring condoms deliberately. He basically left the food and stove in the camp. Everyone knew that after defeating the boss, he had to fight his teammates - either win or die, the final battle, of course, must be lightly equipped. Gu Chi was too lazy to drag a suitcase, and the condoms were left in the bag before.

Although it looks a bit funny, in fact -

"Just right."

Gu Chi poured out all the condoms.

Avreya: "???!"

So many? ?

"Wait a minute!"

"Don't go too far, I will really kill you!"

"Then go ahead."

Gu Chi answered casually, and then took out a knife from his pocket, cut some vines from the ruins, rolled them into a bundle, put a few covers on it, and finally took out a laser rifle and swiped it -

"Huh!"

The bonfire was made.

The warm flames illuminated the girl's delicate face.

Avreya "..."

I blamed him wrongly, it's a little embarrassing.

But it doesn't matter, as long as she is not embarrassed, Gu Chi is embarrassed.

Avreya pretended to be nonchalant: "I didn't expect you to be so smart."

"It's just so-so." Gu Chi didn't take her words to heart at all, and said: "Save your warm stove for later."

The temperature is not particularly low now, and there is no wind, so you can use the bonfire for now.

Avreya: "Oh."

Gu Chi: "Eat, eat."

The two sat down around the bonfire and heated up the hot pot to eat.

The flames cast their shadows, swaying gently on the broken road surface.

From the time they revealed their identities to now, the atmosphere between them was so quiet and harmonious for the first time. To be honest, it felt good, mainly because being in the ruins made the hard-won peace seem even more precious.

But Evelya always felt something was wrong.

She never thought she would one day need to use condoms.

I never thought I would use it with a man.

I never thought it would be used this way...

10pm.

Coredona came over with a flashlight, followed by five bunny girls.

She was not surprised when she saw a beautiful girl beside Gu Chi. She walked straight to Gu Chi and said, "Brother, there is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Gu Chi: "Let's talk together."

Coredona: "?"

She only has one mouth that can speak.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems that these two pieces of news can really be combined into one?

"Brother, you are wanted...and you, sister." Coredona looked at Avreya, "You too, you are all on the company's blacklist."

Gu Chi: "?"

Avreya: "?"

Lin Zian is easy to talk about and is not an important figure, but Lin Mengyu is the director of a company under the company, so the company is willing to kill her?

Gu Chi frowned slightly: "Who gave the order?"

Colledona: "The board of directors."

Gu Chi: "?"

"What's the reason?" Avreya asked.

Coredona: "Murder the executive."

Gu Chi's frown deepened: "How do they know we killed the executive?"

Could it be that the God of War Kimchi or Hattori was buried and had a backup plan?

Or was it that the corporate bodyguards who had been evacuated before had not completely evacuated and saw Avreya shooting Oakley Anli?

"It doesn't make sense." Avreya said.

Neither reason makes sense.

If the bodyguards see her taking action, they will definitely fight back. One of their tasks is to protect Oakley's safety.

There is no need for back-up tactics. When the player dies, they will return to reality, and the score will be settled immediately. No matter what happens in the book after that, it has nothing to do with them. Why bother to hurt others and not benefit yourself?

Gu Chi asked: "Where's the good news?"

"That's the same thing." Coredona looked serious, "Brother, sister, congratulations to you, you are free, and you don't have to go back to the dungeon again."

Gu Chi: "..."

Avelia: "..."

You might as well just say exile to the surface.

"Forget it, ignore this for now, let's hurry up and get to work." Gu Chi said.

If you don't understand the problem, just think about it and put it aside. As long as they get the chip, it doesn't matter whether they are exiled or hunted.

"Did you wear the anti-radiation coating?" Gu Chi asked Coredona.

"I brought it." Coredona nodded and took off the backpack on her shoulder, "There are three cans in total."

All her inventory is here. She brought this thing from the company, and most people can't buy it.

Gu Chi handed a bottle to Avreya: "Put it on the bunny girl."

He and Coredona were not idle either. Five robots had to be painted, and only enough for 1-2 people was left.

Machinery and the human body are also affected by radiation. Adding a layer of coating to the radiation-proof material itself can make the robot last longer. It is best to be able to take out the chip. If not, they can also calculate the damage of radiation to the human body through formulas. Measure it and figure out a solution later.

In about an hour, the bunny girl was finished painting, and the black stockings turned into pantyhose.

"Follow me."

Gu Chi walked in front and led the way.

The beam of the flashlight shone around, illuminating the floating dust.

The ruins look even more desolate at night than during the day.

They passed through the fifth minefield and stopped outside the death radiation zone.

Gu Chi adjusted the power of the flashlight to the maximum and asked Avreya to help shine it while he took out his telescope.

The two searched together for a long time, and finally found the body of the Slayer about 1 kilometer away.

The next step is to let the bunny girl take action.

The results lived up to expectations.

The first bunny girl fell to the ground within 50 meters and became silent.

Gu Chi: "..."

Avelia: "..."

Is the level 10+ radiation so intense?

"It shouldn't be. Its anti-corrosion coating has not completely changed color, which means that the total amount of radiation in these few seconds is not enough to destroy her chip." Coledona thought for a while and said: "Brother, I suspect that you bought residual Defective."

Gu Chi said inexplicably: "Have you not checked for so many days?"

Coredona said confidently: "How can I just touch my brother's things?"

Gu Chi: "..."

OK.

"Let others try." Gu Chi said.

Avreya looked at Coredona silently.

This woman obeyed Gu Chiyan, which was more effective than her control over Ai Qing. She controlled Ai Qing into dreams many times and never stopped coming to the surface. However, Gu Chi did not contact Coledonna for at least a week.

For such a long time, Gu Chi's dream control ability may not be as simple as level 1 or 2.

How did he develop his skills to this extent on his own?

If there were no Xiao Poyou, wouldn't this man be equivalent to a superman in the real world, surpassing whoever he wants to surpass?

Threat level +1.

Avreya is trying to understand this man. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be victorious in every battle.

In fact, she and Gu Chi didn't have any deep hatred. They would probably stand on the same front in the future, but she was not convinced.

Counting this time, she had suffered losses at the hands of Gu Chi three times, and she was tied up every time. She was completely defeated every time, and she would not be reconciled if she was not tied back.

And objectively speaking, part of the reason for losing to Gu Chi this time was bad luck. Who knew that he would be ranked in the original mode?

"Brother, I found it!" Colledona said excitedly.

She had been using a tablet to monitor the bunny girl's vision. After thirteen and a half minutes, the second bunny girl successfully reached the location of the Slayer.

"Can the head be taken off?" Gu Chi asked.

"Yes, but it will take some time." Colledona said, "About 10 minutes."

The serial explosions in the afternoon were very effective. From the surface, it can be seen that the antimatter has completely destroyed the activity of the Kα alloy, but it is still an alloy and will not break like glass. Their blades have limited quality and need to be sharpened.

"Forget it, just drag the people back." Gu Chi said.

Ten minutes is too long. Who knows how long the bunny girl can hold on?

It's faster to pack them all up and take them away.

The fact is not beyond Gu Chi's expectation. After dragging the Slayer for three hundred meters, the second bunny girl broke down.

The total survival time is 19 minutes and 21 seconds.

If it were a human, in 99.99% of cases, it could only last 110-130 seconds, and the remaining 0.01% would be a mutation.

But it doesn't matter, he still has three bunny girls.

There's no need for three.

The road has been explored, and Colledona transmitted the route to the brains of other bunny girls on the spot. Their speed was much faster than their predecessors, and the fourth bunny girl successfully brought the body of the Slayer out of the death radiation zone.

"Let's go back and eliminate the radiation."

Colledona is very good at this job, and she has tools. This is one of the must-have items for scavengers.

But...

There is no chip.

From eliminating radiation to dissection, Colledona was busy in the tent for nearly two hours. She disassembled the Slayer completely, but didn't find a single chip.

The Slayer's head is "empty". There is nothing in the groove where the chip was originally placed. It all depends on the basic program set in the electronic components in other parts to operate.

"No wonder it behaves so stupidly." Avreya frowned, "But if the chip is not on it, where would it be? Oasis?"

She has already killed the Kimchi God of War, and Hattori is dead. Does she have to go back and capture another corporate executive?

But doesn't the executive know where the Oasis is?

Not to mention that she and Gu Chi are still wanted by the board of directors. According to this logic, this game is no longer playable.

But the difficulty of the dungeon has not changed.

Very strange.

"There is another question, brother." Colledona said, "The radiation infection of this Slayer is very low."

Gu Chi: "What do you mean?"

Colledona changed to a simple and easy-to-understand statement: "It just got sick today."

The main material for making the Slayer is the third-generation Kα alloy. The complete Kα-Ⅲ can indeed offset the erosion of radiation to a great extent with its strong self-repairing properties, but this does not mean that it will not be damaged at all, nor does it mean that it will not leave traces.

After a person is injured and heals, there will be scars, and the same is true for metals, but from the body of the Slayer, Coledona did not detect any "old wounds". All the wounds of its paralyzed and damaged parts were brand new, almost all of which were caused after the inactivation of Kα-Ⅲ, and the earliest was no more than 48 hours.

In other words, the amount of artificial radiation in the flat land that the Slayer had been guarding before was infinitely close to 0.

This has never happened on the entire surface of the earth. No matter which area ABCD, the scavengers have never found a place so clean.

Gu Chi thought of the radiation-free setting of the oasis.

But there is nothing on the ground?

You can't just break into a dark city, right?

"Take off your clothes." Gu Chi said to Evelya.

Evelya: "?"

Gu Chi: "Coat."

He was not sure whether Xiaopoyou would deliberately cause trouble, so he wrapped himself in thick clothes and went out to take a look in the cold wind.

The power of the flashlight was not enough at this distance. It was very dark, but Gu Chi still determined through the faint moonlight that there was no silhouette of the city on the flat ground, nor was there any light that a city should have.

He returned to the tent and returned the clothes to the girl.

"How is it?" Avreya asked.

Gu Chi did not speak, but just shook his head and fell into deep thought.

Avreya put on her clothes, which were still warm from Gu Chi. She looked at Gu Chi sitting down beside her and suddenly smiled.

Gu Chi: "What?"

Avreya: "I feel like we are all stupid."

Not only her and Gu Chi, but also Katerina and others.

They thought they had found the light-plunderer chip, and they started to attack each other as soon as the slaughterer fell. Isn't this a typical half-time champagne?

They had been avoiding conflicts before, just because they were afraid that there would not be enough people in the last stage and they could not beat the BOSS, but in the end they ended up in this situation.

Now there are only her and Gu Chi left. It is very difficult to pass the level again, but... isn't this more interesting?

She likes challenging things.

"No, I can't hold on any longer, brother. You guys chat, I'm going to sleep first." Colledona drove for several hours in the afternoon, walked for several hours, and continued to work until now after meeting up with Gu Chi. She hadn't rested for a moment, and when she stopped, she was immediately overwhelmed by fatigue.

She took out her sleeping bag from her bag, walked to the corner of the tent, got in and fell asleep without a pillow.

Gu Chi looked at the time and said to Evelya, "You should go and rest too."

"You don't want to sleep?" Evelya asked.

"I'll think about it." Gu Chi said.

They don't have much time left. The board of directors in the cyber age is equivalent to the highest central institution in modern society. If the board of directors is determined to kill him and Avreya, they won't live for a few days.

"Okay, then I'll go to sleep." Avreya went to another corner.

But she came back in a few minutes.

She cut a hole in the bottom of the sleeping bag and huddled in it, with only her head exposed, like a silkworm that can only walk.

Gu Chi looked at her in confusion.

"I'd better not sleep." Avreya sat opposite Gu Chi and said casually, "Lest someone take advantage of my inattention and wander in my dream again."

Gu Chi: "..."

Avreya: "You think about yours, I won't disturb you."

This is their last sentence tonight.

After that, the tent became completely quiet, leaving only the light snoring of Coledona.

The warm stove on the table was not extinguished all night, casting the shadows of the two on the curtain until dawn.

Although he said he didn't sleep, Gu Chi actually closed his eyes as he thought about it.

Sleepiness is contagious. Colledona's snoring is like a lullaby. Gu Chi didn't know when he fell asleep.

The same goes for Avreya.

She fell asleep earlier than Gu Chi.

She was exhausted after being tortured by this guy for so long. She just didn't want to show weakness so she kept holding on. As a result, she only lasted for an hour before she fell asleep with her head tilted.

They didn't figure out where the oasis was.

The next morning, the sun rose, the temperature warmed up, and a dull noise woke up the three of them.

"Buzz..."

Gu Chi frowned and opened his eyes: "What's the sound?"

Avreya wiped the wet stains on her mouth imperceptibly: "It's a bit like an airplane."

Colledona said irritably: "It's a maglev train."

As long as the route is right, the huge noise of the maglev train can often be heard in the D area on the surface. It doesn't feel much when sitting in the car, but people outside are suffering, especially early in the morning. It's not the first time she has been woken up by the train.

"Wait, we are hundreds of kilometers away from the D-7 underground station, right?" Evelya felt something was wrong, "Why would the train go to this location?"

Colledona: "Turn around?"

"No, not a U-turn." Gu Chi said, "It's impossible to turn around so far."

Digging tunnels and laying tracks is a very laborious task. How could the company build hundreds of kilometers of tunnels for a U-turn?

Areas ABC are deeper and farther developed than Area D. With this time, wouldn't it be better to open trains in those three directions?

Unless... the tunnels in this direction have other uses.
