Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

"Mr. Li, our team has abundant supplies and good treatment. Everyone is above level 40. Compared to ordinary evolver teams outside, we are among the top few. Why don't you consider it?"

In fact, the guy with a crew cut couldn't understand this either.

Because after the world fell into chaos, the safe city no longer accepts any outsiders, unless they are powerful evolvers. But in this crisis-ridden world, how many people can upgrade their safety?

In order to survive, both evolvers and ordinary people choose to stick together for warmth.

Only, this man is strong and lonely.

When he was rejected at first, he thought this man had a team. After asking around, he found out that this man had appeared in this city before the chaos, and he was already very powerful at that time.

And the reason why the evolvers and ordinary people did not leave after the chaos was because of his existence.

Li Shen once again refused seriously, "I don't need a team, please don't bother me anymore."

His eyes fell on the cup in front of him. "If there's a next time..." As soon as he finished speaking, the transparent cup filled with water was blown to pieces.

Ignoring the shocked expressions of the crew cut man and the others, he carried the little white tiger and left the room.

The feud was also formed at that time. From then on, every time Li Shen was outside cleaning up stray bodies and preparing to kill them to extract their cores, this man with a crew cut would always run out to intercept and provoke him.

"Little Dream?"

Li Shen's somewhat doubtful voice awakened the little white tiger from his reminiscence.

She asked Li Shen to call her that. He couldn't always call her Little White Tiger, so she might as well let him call her Xiao Meng.

"What's the matter?"

"It's okay, I saw you were in a daze." Li Shen looked at the sky which was gradually getting dark, turned around and prepared to go back.

"Let's stop here for today. It's getting late."

The wandering experience will be more active at night, so let’s go back first.

"Help!"

“There is... there is a monster!!!”

"It's a mutant! He's mutated!!"

"Quick! Kill him!"

Not long after they started walking, they heard someone screaming.

Li Shen ran over quickly upon seeing this, only to see four or five evolvers and some ordinary people holding guns and confronting a giant humanoid creature that was two meters tall and wrapped in gray-black cloth.

The cloth covering the mutant's face seemed to have been torn off, leaving only a section hanging on the face, and the whole body was covered with strange dark blue crystals.

Xiao Meng recognized the man at a glance and patted Li Shen.

Li Shen instantly condensed an ice cage and wrapped him completely inside, then said to the others, "You go first, leave this to me."

Seeing this, the others looked at each other and put away their guns.

Li Shen and the others knew each other. The reason why everyone could still live in this city was because of him, so they still respected Li Shen very much.

"Mr. Li, human mutant stray bodies are more dangerous than ordinary stray bodies. You..."

"It's okay, I can handle it. It's getting late, you guys should go back first."

"Thank you, Mr. Li. Please be careful." A man who looked like the team leader thought for a moment and said to Li Shen.

They had heard of Li Shen and the others. He was very powerful and a loner. If it was him, there shouldn't be any problem.

"Mr. Li, my name is Li Feng. Thank you for your help, but it's getting dark. If possible, you should go back early."

"If you need any help in the future, just let me know."

Li Feng knew that it was not appropriate to leave Li Shen to this mutant, but there were too many ordinary people in his team, and he was afraid of causing casualties.

"Yeah." Seeing Li Shen nodded, Li Feng nodded apologetically and got into the car with his people.

"Mr. Li, my dear friend, what are you going to do?" Xiao Meng, who was lying on his shoulder, spoke with a smile.

"Finish what I said before." As he spoke, Li Shen made a gesture with cold air in his hands, as if he was ready to wipe out the mutant.

"Hey, just kidding, don't kill him." Xiao Meng was startled.

Li Shen didn't say anything but a beautiful ice flower condensed in his hand, and then he placed the flower on Xiao Meng's tiger head.

Feeling the chill above her head, she instantly realized that this guy was teasing her!

She really thought that Li Shen was going to kill this mutant =-=.

When will he make such a cold joke?

“╭(╯^╰)╮.”

He proudly suppressed his hand that was about to stroke the fur and turned to look at the mutant.

"Why are you here?"

Perhaps because of the mutation, his voice was like the quack of a duck with its neck cut, harsh and hoarse. "I... want to change... for food."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand covered with black bumps. It was much larger than a human's hand and even looked a bit like a claw, curved and sharp.

His hands were filled with high-level cores, the lowest of which were level 30. (Note: In this place, level 30 and above is considered high-level~)

"Change for food?"

"You still eat human food?" This time it was Xiao Meng's turn to be confused. He was not even a human being, so why did he need human food?

What? Do you want to taste it like her?

"No...I eat." The mutant spoke a little slowly.

He has mutated, so naturally he doesn't need human food.

"It's not you..." Xiao Meng was about to say something when Li Shen suddenly spoke, "It's those two people who called you big brother." There was no doubt in Li Shen's words.

"Yes.."

"Oh, yeah, where are your two brothers?"

Perhaps because it knew Xiao Meng and the others had no ill intentions, the mutant was not very wary of them. It pointed in a direction and said, "In the cave..."

Xiao Meng looked in the direction he pointed, hmm...the forest outside the city ruins?

No, there are also habitable buildings outside the city, why go there???

The mutant saw her doubts and said, "If someone sees... they will kill..."

He meant that other humans saw him and chased him.

Yes, even if the building is in ruins, there are always people who don’t have time to return to the city and stay there, so you may not necessarily meet them.

Xiao Meng nodded to show her understanding.

After knowing why he was surrounded by humans, she looked at Li Shen and asked, "Can you help him change something?"

"If he doesn't eat it, then those two cowards will want to eat it too."

Those two screaming chickens are real human beings.

"can."

Li Shen took the core from the mutant's hand and said, "Come here and wait in three days."

Three days later, when the supermarket goods arrived, he happened to want to buy some things too, so he exchanged them together.

"Thank you." The mutant bowed his head in thanks and paused, "My name... is... Yue Hecheng..."

He thought for a long time before slowly saying his name. It seemed that the mutation had a great impact, making his memory a little confused. Fortunately, he survived, otherwise he would have been covered in blue light dust.

"Yue Hecheng? It's a nice name." Xiao Meng looked up and down at the tall guy in front of her and shook her head. "It's a pity that you are a bit..." The name doesn't match the person~

I don’t know if he will be a handsome guy when he turns back into a human form.

People with nice names are usually not too ugly, right?

"By the way, do you remember how you mutated?" Xiao Meng asked tentatively.

Yue Hecheng thought for a long time before he spoke slowly, "My brother and I were hired to help retrieve something from the safe city. However, as we left the safe city area, we were attacked by a large number of stray bodies, and I was scratched."

He was able to speak a little more now, although he still paused from time to time.

Scratches from stray bodies can also get infected, so it seems that he must have been an ordinary person before.

When Xiao Meng wanted to ask something else, Li Shen suddenly turned around and left. Looking at the shrinking Yue Hecheng, she was full of questions.

"Leaving now?"

"Do you want to spend the night outside?" Li Shen's voice was flat, but Xiao Meng felt something strange coming from it. "Not really..." But don't you ask something?

"Hobos are active at night."

Li Shen walked a few steps to the motorcycle and rode into the city.

When they came, they rode motorcycles, well, old electric motorcycles.

Li Shen spent a huge amount of money to get this.

Xiao Meng opened her mouth to say something but was instantly silenced. She had no choice but to crawl into Li Shen's black coat.

When they got home, Li Shen took her out of his coat and put her on the sofa.

I went to the bathroom, put in some hot water, and then carried her to take a bath.

"?"

Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Li Shen explained, "It's very windy outside the city, go wash up."

Well, now that you've said that, what can I say?

Xiao Meng had no choice but to cooperate and hold on to the edge of the bathtub with her two paws to avoid being drowned.

She let Li Shen's rough hands use shower gel to carefully wash her hair.

After being able to condense a physical entity with the help of external energy, she is no different from a real little white tiger. She has body temperature, heartbeat, hair, and feels pain and hunger. Of course, she can ignore these things if she doesn't want them.

After all, she can revoke her form at any time.

However, she found that Li Shen seemed to have a bit of a plush habit. Ever since she condensed her physical body, this guy's attitude towards her had obviously improved by several degrees.

So since then she has maintained her physical state for a long time. Anyway, there is so much strange energy in the air that she doesn't care about this little consumption.
