The trembling of the ground finally stopped. Shen Siwei followed the tumbling marks on the snow to a place 50 meters away, looked at the person lying on the ground and asked, "Hey, are you dead?"

Kleite slowly sat up from the ground, patted the icicles on his head: "You are so violent."

"It's your fault." Shen Siwei said, turning his head to look in the direction of the setting sun, "How do we get there now?"

The newly formed ice crevasse is about ten meters wide, and it is not a problem to jump over it.But there are still hundreds of kilometers to go, and it is impossible for the two of them to walk over with their legs.

"I asked someone to pick us up," Kreiter said.

While waiting, the sun gradually set. Due to the reflection, the light on the ice field was always more dazzling than in the city, but the two sat side by side, waiting idly for the setting sun to turn them into two oranges.

The mountains at the end of the line of sight were no longer covered by snow and ice, and the setting sun was like a light bulb with insufficient power. After a few last flickers, it sank below the horizon.

"How long will we have to wait?" Shen Siwei asked.

"Soon." Kreit raised his chin, pointing to the two red dots flying in the distance, which were the lights of the aircraft.

Lieutenant Shen Si waited for the aircraft to approach in the open space, only to hear Kreiter suddenly ask: "How was my performance just now?"

He didn't respond: "What performance?"

Crater said, "Kiss."

Shen Siwei didn't like how Clater defined this behavior so clearly, because he didn't want to sum it up as "he kissed Clater", or "he was kissed by Clater".

In the end, kissing doesn't seem to happen to Shen Siwei.

"Is that a kiss?" He said lightly, "It's obviously a bear eating a tree."

Kleite narrowed his eyes slightly, making a gesture to pounce on him again.

Shen Siwei immediately warned: "Next time is 100 meters."

And the premise is that he can successfully remove his mask.

Perhaps because he felt that the difficulty was too high, Kleite gave up voluntarily, and said boringly: "You are not afraid of kicking me to death."

"You shouldn't be that vulnerable."

Having said that, in fact, Shen Siwei himself had no idea, so he asked again: "Did it hurt you?"

"It's blue." Klett lifted up the short sleeves under his coat, and a large piece of blue was found on his side.

Seemingly nothing serious, Shen Siwei said indifferently: "Oh."

"You have to rub it for me." Kleite suddenly grabbed Shen Siwei's wrist, "You don't know how painful it is for you to kick."

"You deserve it." Shen Siwei grabbed the cold snow from the ground, and pressed it to the bruised place mercilessly, "Cold compresses are more effective."

"Hiss," Kreit frowned uncomfortably, "Why are you so cruel?"

"I specialize in treating bear children." Shen Siwei withdrew his hand leisurely, and patted the remaining icicles in his palm.

"Who is the child?" Kreiter's voice was even deeper, "Have you ever seen a child who is bigger than you?"

Shen Siwei narrowed his eyes slightly: "What did you say?"

"I'm speaking the truth."

"I think you deserve a beating."

The sound of the aircraft approaching interrupted the conversation between the two. A little girl poked her head out of the window and waved to Kret: "Kret, I'm coming!"

Kleite raised his head when he heard the sound, and waved: "Sasha."

Shen Siwei looked at Kreiter in disbelief: "Why do you let minors fly aircraft?"

"Do you think that the people in the dungeon are so kind?" Kreit said and walked towards the aircraft, "Only she is willing to come."

Sasha is a little girl in her early teens, with thick braids and sharp eyes.

She looked at Wei Shen and asked, "Krete, is he your friend?"

"Yes." Kreit sat on the pilot's seat of the aircraft, "Don't steal from him."

"Hee hee." Seen through her thoughts, the little girl was not embarrassed, she looked at Shen Siwei and said, "Hello, my name is Sasha."

Shen Siwei never reveals his name to strangers on the way to perform missions.He thought for a while and replied, "Hi, my name is Yiwen."

Kreit, who was sitting in front, turned half of his face: "Don't you know that your name is Ivan?"

"I've forgotten so many things, it's not surprising to forget a name."

Sasha answered curiously: "Ivan, do you have a bad memory?"

"Yeah." Shen Siwei said, "Kreit said I have a bad memory."

"Don't trust him easily." Sasha said, "I asked him to play with me, but he always said he was not free, but in fact he just didn't want to play with me."

"You know you're still looking for me," Kreit said.

"Hmph, I just want to see if you have any other excuses."

The two chatted about the dungeon one after another, and Shen Siwei heard many familiar names of criminals.

Some people once terrified the common people in the tree of life, but now they live in misery in the underground city, worrying about water for living.

"By the way," Sasha said, "the old duke is stealing our money again, don't you care?"

"I can't control it," Clayton said.

"He's your adoptive father, who cares about you?"

Kreit was silent and asked, "How much did he rob?"

Sasha said: "No one else knew, and robbed me of 20 yuan."

"Then I'll give it to you later."

Shen Siwei couldn't help feeling that this conversation was amazing.

The duke knew that he had committed all kinds of crimes in the tree of life decades ago, and was exiled outside the tree of life indefinitely.

Such a No. 20 person turned out to be Kleite's adoptive father, and the most amazing thing was that he even robbed the little girl of [-] yuan.

This amount sounds really hard to think of that famous criminal.

When it was close to zero, the three finally arrived at the dungeon, and the battery of the aircraft was on the verge of exhaustion.

Kleite transferred a large amount of money to Sasha, and it was only then that Wei Shen found out that Sasha did not come to pick up the two out of good intentions, and she still had to charge a fee.

After parting with Shasha, Captain Shen Si followed Kreiter into the intricate underground alley.

Even though it was late at night, the dungeon was very lively. Whenever there was a slightly larger venue, there would definitely be refugees gathering to play cards or drink.

However, Wei Shen soon discovered that most of the refugees who stayed in the desert dungeon were older, probably because the younger refugees had all gone to City Z in the western district.

In comparison, the environment in City Z in the West District is more complicated, and it is indeed not so suitable for the elderly.

"Don't look around." Kelei held Lieutenant Shen Si's wrist, "The rule here is to take care of yourself."

"It is written in your file that you are the leader of the refugees." Shen Siwei let Clay pull him down the stairs and went to a deeper floor, "Are you still afraid of them?"

"I'm not afraid, but there's no need to look for trouble." Kreit said, "The desert dungeon can become a refuge for refugees because everyone obeys the rules."

"But there are still people robbing." Shen Siwei thought of the duke that Sasha mentioned.

"It's a criminal after all."

As soon as Kleite finished speaking, a hunchbacked figure suddenly appeared at the corner below the corridor, and shot Kleite involuntarily.

His aim was off, and the bullet deflected off Kleit and hit the sandy wall.Lieutenant Shen Si drew his gun and loaded it immediately, but Kleite held down his wrist.

"It comes here from time to time, don't you bother?" Kreiter stopped on the steps and looked at the people down the corridor impatiently.

"You wolf-hearted thing, give me money quickly!"

It was the Duke who shot.

But what surprised Shen Siwei was that, unlike the middle-aged man in his impression, the man in front of him had white hair, a thin body, and was blind in one eye.

No wonder Sasha called him the old duke.

Some people were born early, did not enjoy the advanced level of medical treatment, and aged at the same rate as people before.Most of the people who stayed in the desert dungeon were people like this.

"Don't pay attention to him." Clay pulled Lieutenant Shen Si and continued to move forward, while the old Duke fired again, but still missed anyone.

Shen Siwei couldn't help being a little surprised. He looked carefully and found that the old Duke's hands were covered with scars, which should have been seriously injured.

Because of this, his hands kept shaking when he held the gun, and it was very difficult to pull the trigger. In addition, he was blind in one eye, so it was no wonder that he couldn't shoot accurately.

"You bastard who will repay your kindness, I will kill you one day!"

Kleite easily took the gun from the old Duke's hand, threw it back on the steps, and then pulled Captain Shen Si into the alley.

"Is he your adoptive father?" Shen Siwei asked.

"It doesn't count." Kreit said, "I can only say that he did teach me a lot."

"for example?"

"How to survive, how to kill."

Shen Siwei remembered that Kreiter said that he was outside the tree of life when he was very young. He could almost imagine that a little boy couldn't survive alone, and could only desperately learn those life-saving skills.

No wonder his handwriting was so ugly, because the old prince couldn't teach him to write.

"Then what does he mean by repaying kindness with revenge?" Shen Siwei asked again.

"Did you see his eyes and his hands?" Kreit asked.

"Ah."

"I did it."

Shen Siwei was dumbfounded for a moment.

"Why don't I think he is my adoptive father? It's because he doesn't look like a father. He's just training me to be his helper in evil." Kreiter said here, stopping in front of a wooden door, " arrive."

The small room is very warmly decorated, the table is full of weird gadgets, and there are ugly SpongeBob SquarePants pillows on the sofa.

Lieutenant Shen Si glanced around briefly, then looked at Kleiter and said, "So you weren't spoiled by him."

"Isn't it incredible?" Klein shrugged.

As the saying goes, those who are close to ink are black. It is indeed incredible that Kleite did not become a big devil when he grew up in such an environment.

"Because I have a friend." Without waiting for Shen Siwei to answer, Kleite said self-consciously, "He once saved me, and I don't want him to disappoint me, so I keep telling myself not to be a bad person, Otherwise, he definitely doesn't want to see me again."

"It's what you said about Ivan..." After a pause, Shen Siwei changed his words, "That friend who looks like me?"

"Correct."

"What about others?"

"died."

Shen Siwei pursed his lips: "Sorry."

"It's okay, it's over." Kreit said, "Are you hungry? I'll go find something to eat."

The nutrients in the backpack had already been used up, Shen Siwei nodded: "Okay."

After Kreiter left, Shen Siwei sat on the sofa boredly, fiddling with the small objects on the coffee table.

In addition to various handicrafts made from the bones of deformed monsters, there are also many strangely shaped metal ores on the coffee table.

Shen Siwei's heart moved, and he slid a black crystal with his fingertips in the air, and the black crystal actually moved.

At the same time, the mask on his face fell off.

- It is indeed so.

When Kleite was about to fall into the ice crevasse before, Shen Siwei saw with his own eyes that Kleite's body was at least ten centimeters away from his fingertips.

That was the distance that he couldn't reach by extending his arms no matter what.

Because he was too anxious at the time, he somehow grabbed Cleter's belt.

Looking back now, it was clear that there was an extra magnetic force out of thin air in his palm, which attracted the metal on Kleite's belt, and then grabbed Kleite.

Thinking of this, Lieutenant Shen Si spread his five fingers and sucked five small ores with his fingertips. He turned his palm over again, and the ores just floated in mid-air.

But with his other hand, he put the mask on his face, but he couldn't attach it no matter what.

Wei Shen's heart moved again, and the ore floating in the air fell down collectively, and the mask was once again attached to his face.

Dr. Chen once explained to Shen Siwei the principle of the adsorption of the oxygen mask on his face. It was because a small amount of magnetic particles were implanted in his mouth, nose and skin, which could generate magnetic force and attract the oxygen mask.

Shen Siwei always thought that the mask fell because the mask was degaussed.But it now appears that it was not the mask that was degaussed, but his face—or to be precise, the magnetic particles in his facial skin moved into his palm.

Shen Siwei tried again, the mask fell off again, and the ore was suspended in his palm again, and this time he also found that he could control the height of the ore suspension.

In other words, he can also control the magnitude of the magnetic force with his mind.

Shen Siwei had had enough of playing with the ore, and fell on the back of the sofa chair, looking at the ceiling and his brain spinning rapidly.

From this point of view, there are still many things that Mo Lin has not told him.

If Lieutenant Shen Si was still dubious about Clater before, the matter of the magnetic particles made him fully believe that during the period when he thought he was asleep, many things did happen, and Mo Lin didn't want him to know.

As for the relationship between lovers, Shen Siwei's intuition was indeed correct. Although he and Mo Lin confessed to each other in his memory, he still felt that it was unreal.

But the question is, if even his own memory is unreliable, how can he judge what is true?What fake?

Have you always relied on intuition?

This feeling is really irritating, especially those things that Kreiter said, Shen Siwei really can't remember at all.

But as Kreiter said, if he confronted Maureen rashly, he might be forcibly taken away again.

Thinking of this, a message from Mo Lin suddenly popped up in Shen Siwei's communicator.

[Molin: I see that your coordinates have reached the dungeon. Is there any news about Kreit? 】

Shen Siwei looked at the communicator expressionlessly, and replied "no".
