Su Yi sensed something was wrong and looked under the tattered gray robe. He saw that the pure white snowflakes nearby had turned bright red and the air was filled with rust. She was injured.
Anyone from the wasteland who could bleed must have been badly injured, and the violent resistance made the wound worse.
The reason why soldiers are dangerous is that if they die, the harm they cause will be the same and the nuclear bomb will still explode.
"Calm down, this isn't the wasteland!"
Su Yi tried to persuade her loudly, but the girl did not respond at all and continued to resist desperately.
"Could it be that the mask's radio system is also broken..." Su Yi recalled the girl's words and realized that something was wrong, so he reached out and pressed on the cracked mask and broke it hard, and the sound of metal breaking was heard.
The girl's pale but delicate face appeared before his eyes.
Her light blue eyes were filled with confusion, fear, the unknown, and a strong sense of hostility, as if she was an animal that had been locked in a cage and living in a zoo and was suddenly released into the wild. The moment the mask fell off, her face was filled with despair.
"Are you going to die from radiation? How dare you not wear a mask? Looks like we're going to die together..."
The girl spoke intermittently, her voice full of coldness. In the wasteland, even if a person's body has adapted to the dense radiation environment, breathing too much radioactive gas will still kill them. When performing missions outside, one must wear a protective mask, and only a few isolation facilities and strongholds can be moved freely.
For her, having her mask crushed outside meant she was not far from death.
Hearing this, Su Yi did not explain much. He took out the heat gun and put it against the girl's forehead. The girl closed her eyes tightly, waiting for death to come.
The crisp sound of the trigger was heard, but the powerful weapon that was enough to melt titanium alloy steel plates did not react at all.
"See? The thermal gun won't start. There's no radiation here at all."
The girl who was pressed on the snow opened her eyes slightly and saw the core of the hot gun spinning wildly in front of her, but unable to fire. She looked up and looked around unconsciously.
There was no poisonous gas surrounding, nor was there any smog covering the sky. The visibility was very high. Something white and cold was floating down from the sky, and no one knew what it was.
The air is so fresh that it's scary. Even without a gas mask, there's no burning or stinging sensation when you breathe it into your nose.
What she found most unbelievable was that there was a green tree above her head, swaying constantly in the wind. It was an extremely rare species that could only be seen in the National Museum. It was almost extinct in the wasteland tens of thousands of years ago.
Under the impact of the huge amount of information, the girl temporarily lost the ability to think and stopped resisting.
Until I heard a call in my ear.
"Which faction do you belong to? The City of Light, the Jilie people, or the Xiusval Kingdom?"
Su Yi asked after a brief thought, and several places where soldiers were used as despicable means emerged in his mind, but soon his brows tightened: "No, silver hair and blue eyes, could it be..."
"I am not one of these corrupt people. I come from a noble family of sword bearers."
Hearing these names, the girl turned her head away with disdain, posing proudly.
"Ok?"
Su Yi was slightly stunned.
"When does a swordsman use a soldier?" He paused for a moment before asking again, "Do you know Iffy?"
Hearing this name, the girl suddenly became extremely excited and picked up her dagger again: "How do you know Granny Ify's name? This is impossible..."
"Mother-in-law, has she become a mother-in-law already?"
Su Yi couldn't help but sigh. The Sword Bearer was the force he and his friends had created in the wasteland. Even though he knew that the speed of time flowed differently in the two places, he still couldn't help but marvel when he heard someone call his friend "grandma."
When he left the wasteland, Iffy was only 21 years old...
Su Yi didn't want to hurt the girl from the sword-wielding man. After thinking for a moment, he relaxed the strength in his hand a little and raised his middle finger to the girl.
This is the sign language that is taught only to core sword bearers or sword bearers who carry out important tasks, and is used to confirm the identity of the other party.
It came from a strong sense of evil he had back then, I don’t know if it’s still useful.
"Are you also a swordsman? I'm the only one on this mission..." After seeing this gesture, the girl's expression was no longer as hostile as at the beginning. She put down the dagger in her hand and showed a puzzled look.
"Of course." Su Yi nodded.
"Not only that, but I'm also pretty familiar with Iffy. She probably uses 'Ai' as her catchphrase quite often."
"You know this too?" The girl was a little shocked. Granny Ify hadn't seen an outsider for 70 years and stayed in the laboratory all day. She was the creator of these soldiers and their "mother" in a real sense.
"I'll explain this to you later. Anyway, your mission has failed. Don't do anything unnecessary. Just follow me."
Su Yi picked up the mask that fell on the ground, turned on the hypnosis laser and swept it over the lady boss who had fainted at the cash register.
All the merchandise that the girl knocked to the ground was sorted out and put back on the shelves.
The proprietress suddenly woke up and looked around, "Huh? What happened?"
"Boss, you were so tired from counting money that you almost fell asleep..."
Su Yi laughed and teased, placing the instant noodles he had chosen on the counter.
The side effects of the hypnotic laser appeared, and the proprietress in front of her had lost her memory. She only remembered that she was counting money, but how could these few thousand yuan at the cash register make her so tired?
After thinking it over and over again, she finally gave up and took the money Su Yi handed over.
"I feel like someone just shouted 'nuclear bomb...'"
"Boss, you must have been in a slumber! Where can you find nuclear bombs in this day and age?"
"I really heard it."
"It must be an illusion."
Chapter 3: The stronghold is a luxurious old and dilapidated small
The wind and snow were getting stronger and stronger, and the goose-feather-like snow swirled in the air and fell on Lolisi, who was looking around. She was wrapped tightly in a dark green robe, and her eyes had been wandering around since her mask was taken off.
"Is this the Sword Bearer's base? I can't even see any barriers. Where should we go to confirm our ID information?"
The girl always remained vigilant towards Su Yi. Although he knew the swordsman's internal gestures, she would never be careless before confirming his identity.
"This is not a stronghold."
Su Yi carried the black safe on his back. He didn't know what was inside, but it was very heavy, at least seven or eight hundred kilograms. No wonder the agile girl fell down after being bumped into.
Lolixi's eyes became more and more incredible. She reached out to catch the falling snowflakes, her face full of confusion.
"This isn't a base, so why don't we need to wear a mask..."
"This is a blue planet. There's plenty of oxygen in the air, so there's no need to worry about poisoning."
Su Yi explained seriously. He looked down and saw that with every step the girl took, blood would flow down her toes, which was particularly horrifying on the snow-white street.
There are healing potions brought back from the wasteland in his residence, which should be able to temporarily deal with this emergency.
There are not many of them, and Su Yi usually keeps them as treasures, but now is not the time to feel sad. If a soldier dies, it will bring about an explosion comparable to a nuclear bomb.
"Blue Star?" Luo Lixi was slightly stunned. She put her hand on her temple, and a large amount of data appeared in her light blue eyes. "I can't find this place in my database."
The mask was broken, but the smart chip on her body was still there, which contained the data database given by Granny Iffy, including the distribution map of known forces in the wasteland.
"This isn't a wasteland, so you naturally can't find it."
Su Yi glanced at the girl's face. When she was retrieving data, she would emit a very obvious feature - her eyes would emit green light.
"Lolisi can't understand what you mean."
The girl kept shaking her head. The amount of information available around her was too huge, and many things were unknown in the database. She couldn't help but feel confused.
"Let's not talk about that for now. Is Lolisi your code name or your real name?"
Su Yi walked to the gate of his community and turned to look at the girl with long silver hair and a blank look in her eyes. The tense atmosphere just now made him forget to open an umbrella. At this moment, both of them were covered with thick snow.
"My grandmother gave it to me." Lolisi did not hide the fact that only a few soldiers were given names by grandmother Ife, and this was a symbol of honor.
"That's the real name."
"Um...."
The girl's round little ears under her long silver hair were like bamboo shoots poking out of the snow, extremely delicate, with the pointed ends red from the cold. Even though the girl was very patient and acted as if nothing had happened, her body was shaking slightly involuntarily.
It was obvious that her tolerance for the cold was far inferior to Su Yi's.
Seeing this situation, Su Yi couldn't help but quicken his pace. About five minutes later, he arrived in front of his rented apartment.
This community is full of old-style residential buildings with peeling and mottled walls. The facilities are even older than him. The corridor is dim. As footsteps sound, the voice-controlled lights chirp and emit a crimson light.
For such a dilapidated house, it is a miracle that the lights in the corridor are still on.
"Where is this place?"
Lolisi asked in confusion as she looked at the unfamiliar buildings around her.
"my home."
Su Yi answered affirmatively, walked to the door of the apartment and reached for the key in his pocket.
"What is home?"
"Hmm... You can think of it as a nickname for a small private base."
"Ka--" The apartment door was opened, and Su Yi pushed it open. "Come in and sit down."
Lolisi paused, then raised her head and looked around.
"According to the smart chip's detection, the nearby wall's hardness rating is 1. A thermal gun can easily penetrate it, and it's completely defenseless against ground vibrations and artillery shells."
"This place is a high-risk building, or it can be considered a ruin. It is extremely unsafe!"
The silver-haired girl warned without mercy.
Hearing this, Su Yi clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and muttered softly.
"It's located in a business district, in a good school district, and only takes fifteen minutes to walk to Los Angeles High School."
"The most important thing is that the rent is only 200 a month. I won't let you say that."
However, Lolisi from the wasteland didn't understand what he meant and continued to insist, "The database indicates that the best approach right now is to retreat to the wilderness with a wide field of vision, so you can observe the outside world at any time."
Seeing this, Su Yi couldn't help but laugh.
He was in the same situation when he first traveled back to Blue Star. He didn't dare to sleep in the house at all. He stayed in the wild for half a month before he gradually dared to go back to the house.
After a little thought, Su Yi leaned against the iron gate and did not try to persuade her again. Instead, he stared into the girl's eyes and asked:
"It's snowing outside, and the temperature is around -15 degrees Celsius. You're injured now. How long can your body functions last?"
"About... 3 hours, 21 minutes, and 46 seconds..."
The green light in Lolisi's eyes gradually dissipated, and the exoskeleton on her body had lost its energy.
According to the database's estimation of her physical condition, this is the maximum time she can last.
"With so little time, I don't think sleeping outdoors is a good option. At least the temperature here can be kept above 20 degrees."
Outside the corridor, the cold wind whistled past with snowflakes. Su Yi exhaled a long puff of white mist and pointed towards the house. "If you're worried, I can show you my ID information."
Hearing this, Lolisi gripped the sharp blade hidden under her robe, looked up at his face, then looked outside the corridor, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to step into the house.
"Don't get excited. There are no weapons in the house. Although there are many unfamiliar devices, they are all safe. Do not use any violence..."
Su Yi whispered to him that this place was rented and he would have to pay for anything damaged. He didn't want the landlord to come and assess the damage with a lantern.
After saying that, he squatted down, opened the drawer in front of the TV cabinet, and took out a tube of light green injection from the iron box inside.
"You should know what this is." Su Yi shook it in his hand.
Lolisi narrowed her eyes slightly. "According to tests, this is the T1205 model of a healing potion that was popular in the wasteland 269 years ago. It can treat more serious injuries. It was a valuable research result back then, but the formula was lost later."
"Correct answer, now don't move."
Su Yi pulled out the cap of the injection, moved a little closer to the girl, and stabbed it towards her neck. However, just before the injection made contact with her skin, she turned her head away.
"Didn't you detect that this was a healing potion? Why are you hiding?"
Su Yi's face was full of confusion. Once this thing is opened, it must be used within two minutes, otherwise the effect will be greatly reduced.
The silver-haired girl shook her head repeatedly:
"According to Article 251 of the Sword Bearer, soldiers are not allowed to receive treatment beyond the control level. Those with serious injuries must discard the medicine on their own. This medicine is a precious commodity, and I do not have the authority to use it."
In the wasteland where material control is extremely strict, all equipment is given priority to people with official ID information. As a weapon, her mission is sacrifice.
Seeing this situation, Su Yi frowned. In the years since he left the wasteland, the Sword Bearers seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes. Before, they were the organization that was most resistant to soldiers, and many senior officials believed that they were playing with human lives and despised life.
It's hard to imagine that this was the research result of Iffy, who was the most resistant to soldiers back then.
Su Yi leaned over and took out another black card from the TV cabinet: "If I remember correctly, if the sword holder has a high enough ID authority, he will not be affected by any restrictions."
"That's right." Lolisi nodded. In the organization, people with ID less than 10 have the authority to override the rules.
