Doomsday Bandits and Tramps

============================

Above the boundless sea level, the setting sun is like a dandelion, and the clouds and waves are ignited by the fire, covering the earth along the border of the sea and sky.The sea breeze was slightly cool, with a faint salty smell in the dryness, which messed up Xiu's hair.

"You are here."

Seth was holding the dinner plate, carefully stepped on the slope of the roof, and sat beside Xiu.

"As soon as I opened my eyes, I realized that you were gone. After asking for a long time, someone said that I saw you here."

Seth opened the cover of the dinner plate, and the smell of fat and grains roasted by the flames came out: "I see that you didn't eat much in the morning, and you slept until dusk and didn't eat at noon. You must be hungry."

Seth picked up a scone, wrapped it with grilled meat and seasonal vegetables, sprinkled it with dipping sauce, rolled it up tightly, and brought it to Xiu's mouth.

"I'm not hungry." Xiu said.

"Take a bite," Seth urged, "for the sake of feeding you myself?"

Xiu Meizhe smiled, took a bite of the burrito, and chewed without taste.

Seth also took a bite, and together with Xiu, they faced the sea side by side.

"Is it the same in the evening of Albion?" Seth asked.

"Almost," Xiu said, swallowing the food in his mouth, "The dusk in Albion is colder and wetter, and the view is not as wide as here."

Seth opened a bottle of water and handed it to Xiu: "Speaking of which, Tinis City can also see the sea, but what you see most often is the gray-white city wall."

"Is the city wall still necessary?"

Xiu took a deep breath, lay down with his head held high, and looked at the blood-stained sky: "The city of Tinis doesn't need a city wall, does it?"

"Well, I think so."

Seth lay beside Xiu, biting a burrito: "However, it will take a while to get used to it...cough cough..."

Seth accidentally choked on the food and kept coughing. Xiu hurriedly helped Seth up, patted him on the back, and handed him water: "Look, I tell you to lie down and eat."

"I, I didn't know...cough cough...their taste of Corvigneon is too strange...cough cough...sour and spicy...I was choked by the sauce...Ah, Ah Choo..."

Seeing Seth coughing and sneezing, Xiu couldn't help laughing, and took out a handkerchief to wipe his nose and mouth for him.

Seth took a while to stop coughing, and tapped the center of Xiu's brows with his sauce-stained hand: "I finally laughed, and your brows are almost wrinkled."

"I'm just annoyed," Xiu said.

"What's bothering you?"

Seth noticed the paper in Xiu's hand, and took a look at it: "Still memorizing the map?"

Seth snatched the paper from his hand and burned it to ashes.

"What are you doing?!"

"It's useless to memorize things like this," Seth said calmly. "There are many twists and turns in the pipeline. Once we go in, we will get lost [-]% of the time. It's better to adapt to the situation." Kafka said, from the robot's sensitivity to 'death' and memory Judging from the existence of pipeline maps in the system, Avalon is likely to be a hive mind, and the entire Sky Fortress is integrated, as long as the virus is connected to any port, it can infect Avalon."

The sea breeze blew, and the dust of the map drifted away with the wind, dissipating without a trace.

Xiu looked at Seth, his red hair was not as dazzling as before under the setting sun, but warmly occupied every corner of Xiu's heart: "Seth, I..."

Xiu Xiu wanted to speak, but Seth pinched his face severely: "Don't say anything that makes me angry."

Xiu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled as a matter of course: "You know what I want to say?"

"Well," said Seth, "there is no such tacit understanding, and my husband is for nothing."

Xiu blushed with a smile, and squeezed Seth's hand in remembrance: "There is no need to sacrifice two lives."

Seth sighed, and kissed Xiu on the forehead: "If you don't give up on me, will I give up on you?"

"I want you to live." Xiu said.

"I also want you to live, but I want to hear you say you need me."

Seth embraced Xiu and let him lean on his shoulder: "Do you still remember that after Rodin found out about our relationship, he suddenly left without saying a word and with his hands behind his back?"

Xiu put his arms around Seth's waist and nodded: "Remember, I thought he didn't like me."

"Fool, if he didn't like you, he wouldn't ask me to take you into the city."

"Then why did he leave without saying a word?"

"Before, I wasn't sure. After seeing Diana holding Rodin and leaving Goliath's cab, I suddenly understood."

Seth said: "Rodin can be called our father. Seeing the two of us is like seeing his own children. While happy, he is also worried about our future life. He is afraid that we will quarrel, that we will not be in harmony, and even more afraid of one of us. If something happens, the other party will be in pain. Dr. Franz will refuse to cooperate for this reason."

Xiu said: "However, only we can do this."

"I know."

Xiu looked at Seth seriously: "I don't want you to die."

"Little fool, who said that we will definitely die."

Seth smiled, and flicked Zaixiu's forehead: "This plan is very dangerous, but don't forget, we also have a trump card in Avalon."

"Ace... Pullin?"

Seth nodded happily: "That kid is very clever, he is not someone who will be taken as a hostage obediently. When he senses something is wrong, he will definitely rack his brains to find a way to leave. And..."

Seth held Xiu's hand and clasped his fingers tightly: "I don't want you to die either."

"Seth..."

"I also tried my best to convince you, and even prepared to knock you unconscious. But then I found out that if I think so, you will think so too."

"Are you so confident?" Xiu asked with a smile, "What if I run away?"

Xiu said it as a joke, but Seth replied very seriously: "Xiu, I am a soldier. Soldiers can die on the battlefield, but they must never run away. You are not a soldier. I hope you can run away. But, you won't , you love me, just like, I love you."

Xiu looked at Seth's sincere eyes, his throat suddenly choked up, he hugged Seth and kissed him fiercely.

This kiss was a little sour, a little spicy, a little bitter, but it was far from the love between the two.

After a while, the two parted reluctantly, leaning against Seth's forehead, rubbing the tip of his nose lightly on his face: "Will you regret it?"

"No," Seth stroked Xiu's lips, only the smell of each other remained in his breath, "I only regret that I didn't get to know you sooner."

"Me too."

The two were immersed in deep love until the setting sun fell into the sea, and the violet and clear night sky gradually dispelled the chaotic and hazy fire clouds.

"Zi, what a disappointment~~~"

Seth smacked his lips suddenly, reluctantly let go of Xiu, and propped his chin in agitation: "I really don't know how to watch the time, and only pick on others to disturb."

Xiu smiled helplessly, and looked up at the person who came, "Do you have anything to do with us?"

After getting permission, Adonis walked into the two of them, knelt down without saying a word, "I'm sorry."

Xiu was a little shocked, and Setra stopped Xiu who wanted to help him up, and said flatly, "Is it useful to say I'm sorry now?"

"sorry."

Adonis lowered his head and clenched his fists in shame: "I shouldn't hide the key to this plan, but I can't help it. At this point, I finally have a chance to destroy Avalon. Because he , too many people have sacrificed, because of him, the people of Corvinion can only hide in the ground for generations, and live carefully and earnestly. No matter how clear the sky is, it is a nightmare for us. I know this is very selfish, Carmelita When I proposed this plan, I didn't even stop her. If possible, I hope that the person who sacrifices is me..."

"Enough, enough..."

Seth interrupted Adonis impatiently: "Momo Haw, what are you trying to say? Are you persuading us to die willingly?"

"No, I didn't mean that."

Adonis hurriedly explained: "I just hope you can understand my concealment, no, it's deception, that's all. Also, I want to tell you that you are free, if you don't want to... "

"A sissy is a sissy, real ink."

Seth sighed, pulled Xiu up, and the two stepped on the roof and jumped down in front of Adonis: "We are not people who are greedy for life and fear death, and neither are you. When you were in Tinis City, you were willing to help We, we are grateful..."

"So, what happened this time is as if we are returning your favor."

Adonis looked at Seth and Xiu in surprise, and expressed his gratitude beyond words: "Thank you."

"Okay, put it down, it's ugly to cry."

Seth stretched out his hand regardless of the past, and Xiu also stretched out his hand to cover the back of Seth's hand: "Your life is entrusted to you, you have to give some strength, Commander."

"kindness."

Adonis nodded vigorously, and stretched out his hands to overlap with them: "I promise, I will do my best to bring you back safely."

Seth smiled: "Even if it's just a polite remark, we are very happy if you can say that."

Adonis did not argue with Set, but bowed his head in shame.

"There is one more thing I must tell you."

"Say it," said Seth, "no matter what you say now, neither of us will be surprised."

"This matter should have been said by Dr. Franz, but since I am a villain, I will do it to the end."

Adonis looked at Seth, hesitated a few times, and said, "Dr. Franz suspects that the attack of the alien beast tide is related to the destruction of the isolation container of the little white ball. When he was rebuilding the city of Tinis, he checked Surveillance video in the laboratory found..."

"Find what?" Seth asked.

Adonis said: "The doctor found out that it was Purin who slipped into the lab and destroyed the containment container."
