【Ruijin】Eye of the Storm

Jin raised his head and stared at the face on the screen that he had not seen for many years. It was her sister, the only blood relative he had left in the world.He couldn't help himself and took a step forward, but someone behind him grabbed his forearm.Kim turned his head and looked into Gray's purple eyes.

The sentinel didn't say anything, just looked at him deeply.Jin understood what he meant in an instant, and slowly retracted the steps he took.

Qiu on the screen continued to make a report: "Just like our previous guess, the development of 'drugs' is still going on. But they seem to have encountered a new bottleneck: although synthetic agents can increase the explosive power of the human body to The standard sentinel is average, but it cannot completely replace the real wizard for effective comfort. Their experimental subjects fell into sensory fugue collectively yesterday, and died after rescue failed."

Jin immediately thought of something, and exchanged a look with Gray beside him.At this moment, Guihu Tianchong, who was standing beside the computer, pressed the fast forward button.The screen flashed quickly, and after about 15 seconds, Ghost Fox chose to pause and continue playing the video tape.

"A Tower of Sentinel Autumn, No. 30214719, October 20, 10XX," Qiu said slowly with his face facing the camera, "New progress has been made in the research and development of medicine. Their scientists tried to extract a certain trace amount of The element dosage has been increased by about 13 percentage points, and they are correct. The strength of the latest batch of experimental subjects can already reach the standard A-level, this is their latest test result, and the lifespan has also been extended from the original three days to four months about."

"But this doesn't seem to be the end of the research," Qiu said. "I think they are far from satisfied with this. I can't imagine what the concept is beyond A-level. They seem to hope to restore a legendary dark sentinel. In order to complete this target, and they are still hurting more innocent people."

After saying this, Qiu suddenly fell silent.She lowered her head and seemed to be immersed in her own thoughts. After a while, she raised her face and looked directly at the camera again: "Their management of researchers is very strict, and I have not yet gained full trust. This research started from human Inflated desire for control, they first used ordinary humans such as prison inmates and homeless people as experimental subjects, and during yesterday's inspection, I accidentally learned that they signed an illegal contract with an orphanage in the suburbs to pay a large amount of aid for the privilege of 'adopting' children."

"—They seem to have discovered that compared with adults, the genetic program of young children is more sensitive to the drug. The success rate is also higher. I request Yita to launch a secret rescue immediately after receiving this video log. complete."

The video screen stops abruptly here.Ghost Fox bent down and ejected the video tape, and then heard the question from the opposite guide: "Where did you get the video tape?"

Kim stared at him, and repeated the question: "How did you get these video logs of my sister? Where is she now?"

"I don't know where she is," Ghost Fox said, "Maybe she's dead, maybe she's still alive somewhere in the world, who knows? As for the log, I think the Chief Sentinel next to you has already told You, I used to be a staff member of Tower One's intelligence department. To get these things, you only need a little brains and enough proficient deciphering techniques."

Guihu Tianchong rested his elbows on a protruding wooden board, shrugged his shoulders: "To be honest, I never thought that your sister would be the final clue. She was protected by Daniel in the tower, and all the information is available It was carefully sealed away, and it took me a lot of effort—”

"How do you know that Yita has been associated with illegal drugs?" Gray interrupted him with a cold tone.

Ghost Fox narrowed his eyes, and slowly clenched his right hand by his side into a fist.His voice sounded very disdainful and self-deprecating: "...Of course I know, how could I not know? Because I came from the rescued orphanage in the southern suburbs."

The success of this answer made both of them look at Ghost Fox in shock.

"...If that's the case, why did you do this?" Jin Qiang resisted the dryness in his eyes, and pointed to the darkened monitor with a little emotion, "Qiu, my sister, it's her report Pleading saved your life! Do you really know what you're doing? You let all her hard work go down the drain!"

"Her efforts?" Ghost Fox suddenly raised her voice, her expression distorted, "I hope she doesn't save me! Do you know what the people from Yita did? Their sudden intrusion forced the experiment to stop midway, and the medicine It has not been fully injected, which caused me to lose the best awakening time, and I can only become a low-level C. I can’t improve, I can’t make progress, I’m always hanging in place, and I’m stared at in that tower. This is The result of her hard work!"

"Ghost Fox Tianchong," Jin listened to his words in disbelief, "you would rather sacrifice your life for the kind of short-term power that doesn't belong to you? Are you crazy?"

Ghost Fox covered his face with his hands, and his laughter became lower and lower: "Guide Jin, a person like you can never understand my feelings-I've had enough of groveling and being a bully, of course I Willing to trade any price for a chance to trample everyone under their feet."

The blond-haired young man looked at him, opened his mouth, and finally murmured: "...you are so, so pathetic."

"Who is the saddest? Don't talk too early." Ghost Fox smiled strangely, took out another small memory card from behind, and explained unhurriedly, "Qiu's video log lasted In the past six months, I have read each article carefully. After Yita rescued the orphanage, her situation as a spy in that pharmaceutical organization became more difficult. It was around the beginning of November, which is the penultimate After the first log, Yita replied with the message that she agreed to end her spy mission, and it was decided to formally close the net and arrest all relevant personnel a week later."

"About four days later, Qiu replied to Yita with the last video log. This video was encrypted separately by Qiu, and it was not sent to the original mailbox as usual," he shook the things in his hand, " This is exactly what I want to trade with the two of you."

"What are you trying to say?" Gray frowned.

"Don't worry," Ghost Fox snorted, and reinserted the memory card into the card reader, "You will know when you see it."

The video this time is obviously different from the previous log.The screen loaded for a while and then started to play automatically, but the chair facing the camera was empty for a long time.About half a minute later, just when Jin thought that the ghost fox was deceiving them again, Qiu suddenly walked in from outside the camera.

She sat on a chair and slowly raised her head.Jin looked at her face, only to feel that his breath was stagnant.The obvious fatigue of the female sentry is released from every pore of expression.She has lost a lot of weight, her face is dull, only her pair of blue eyes, which are exactly the same as Jin, are as dazzling as ever, like a cluster of flames that will never be extinguished.

"This is my last mission video log." Everyone heard Qiu say on the screen.

Qiu narrowed her eyes and said softly, "I have to admit that I made a wrong decision, that is, to trust my tower, and to tell you all the information I got here without saying a word."

"I am a tower's sentinel, and I will obey the tower's orders unconditionally. But at the same time, I am also a person, and I am still a... sister," she paused, "The original intention of my coming here is to assist the tower to stop this Illegal organization, and completely destroy that kind of illegal drug that has caused countless harm, instead of becoming an accomplice."

"This drug must disappear, regardless of whether it is foreign criminals or First Tower troops who try to use it. Whether it succeeds or not, it will bring about changes that the entire order of the sentinel guide group cannot bear. I cannot accept more What an innocent victim, so I can't carry out the last order and hand over the formula to the tower."

Qiu suddenly stretched out his hand to hold the camera and stood up.The machine shook violently in her hands a few times, Qiu leveled the camera with one hand, and the lens finally focused on her face, the expression of the female sentinel was unprecedentedly oppressive: "I have indeed obtained the final The recipe, but it will be kept in a safe place where I never leave my body, and no one can get it, including Yita."

Qiu in the picture took a deep breath, and slowly said: "I want to take away my brother and that unfortunate child. At the same time, I ask Yita to immediately stop all scientific experiments related to the research of prohibited drugs. Otherwise, this The recipe and all evidence of Yita's involvement will be made public."

"—From the successful sending of this email, I will no longer be affiliated with Yita."

"complete."

The moment the voice fell, the progress bar also came to the end.Qiu's image disappeared from the screen, and the entire basement fell into a dead silence.

I see.The blond guide's mind was in chaos, and all the fragments in his memory were like falling beads, connected like silk threads by a passage of the Mid-Autumn Festival video just now.From the time Kim was born, Cho was the closest family member in Kim's memory.She always smiled, taught him integrity and kindness, and taught him gratitude and hard work.Qiu guides Jin to learn how to control the huge power hidden in his body. She is obviously a woman, but she has talents and minds that many men cannot match. The existence of the hero".

Jin could hardly control his wild thoughts, so that he didn't realize the other party's approach until the sentry gently wrapped his arms around his shoulders.

He heard Gray raise the volume and ask Ghost Fox: "You have watched these video tapes a long time ago, so when there was a storm caused by the same banned drug a year ago, you decided to betray Yita. "

"Although the earliest research organization was wiped out by Yita that year, there are still some corner materials circulating in the dark along the underground black market. It is also expected that it will be picked up again after many years." It was thought that they had found the so-called final formula, but they did not."

The silver-gray-haired guide stood with his arms folded, raised his face again, and crucified Gray behind Jin with a distorted expression: "I used to be just lacking some luck, but you, Mr. Gray, As a sentinel who was also transformed, you have successfully awakened into an S-rank. Your appearance makes me jealous, but at the same time, it also gives me new inspiration."

"I want you to feel the same pain as me, and I want you to know what it feels like to be irreparable and powerless. So, under my 'suggestion', they managed to get your guide."

Before Gray could make a move, Jin rushed out first.

His speed was very fast, as if he appeared in front of the ghost fox in the blink of an eye.The silver-gray guide was shocked and raised his hand to block, but the punch had already hit Guihu Tianchong hard on the left cheek.

The ghost fox groaned in pain, his teeth gritted his lips.In the next second, he was caught off guard by the neckline, and Jin added a heavy punch to his abdomen, and then threw him forcefully on the console glass beside him, choking the opponent's neck with one hand Leaping forward, his five knuckles were all white, and he said each word with a pause: "You are such a scum, Guihu Tianchong."

The ghost fox gasped heavily and had difficulty breathing, choking out a small mouthful of blood.But he still smiled arrogantly and recklessly on his face, and even reached out and grabbed Jin, pinched the back of his right hand, looked directly at him and shouted intermittently: "No! You will, you will thank me! You will not only thank me Me, you will still pitifully... beg me! Beg me to let your Sentinel live!"

Jin stayed in place as if struck by lightning. The silver-haired sentry took him in a daze, and immediately rushed over from behind to forcefully separate the man from the ghost fox, and pulled him behind him. The grey-haired guide, who was in a panic, said sharply, "Shut up!"

Ghost Fox's body slowly slumped to the ground. He coughed violently for a while, stroked the dark red bruises on his neck with one hand, and raised the other hand to casually wipe away the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Gray forcefully clamped Jin's wrist, but the guide seemed to have completely lost his mind at this moment, and his body was still stubbornly trying to rush towards the ghost fox, his voice hoarse: "What do you mean by that?"

Ghost Fox staggered up while supporting the cabinet next to him: "Back then, Yita used the first version of the potion he developed without authorization to carry out the first round of transformation before getting the formula, and the experimental subjects who were injected during the same period lived the longest. He was an A-rank Sentinel, but he also died of insanity five years ago, proving that this side effect is not immune to Sentinel rank."

Ghost fox looked at Jin, and raised his chin provocatively: "If you don't believe me, you might as well ask your sentinel now—how is his physical condition, and he has been delaying the restoration of your bond , Is it really because it doesn't matter, or is it to protect you from being implicated by the sudden death of the combined sentinel?"
