Chapter 82

Huo Yan clenched his fist silently, and was a little discouraged: "Why do you feel that provoking him is better?"

Gui Yunzi hurriedly comforted him: "No, look at this exquisite production, he will definitely not fight back on the spot - he has already prepared it and waited for us to take the bait! This belongs to us hitting the gun, and it cannot be considered a loss!"

Huo Yan asked Xiao Hei unwillingly, "Is there any way to fight back?"

Xiao Hei shrank to the side: "...I want a machine."

"I don't do design either."

He paused, then turned the light brain around again, "It's not over yet."

There is a final paragraph in the presentation document. The screen focuses on the "Eastern District Temporary Shelter", and the red light flashes.

"Hiss." Gui Yunzi rubbed his chin, "What does he mean, he's going to the East District next? The temporary shelter in the East District, isn't it where Qiu Changzheng is?"

He slapped his thigh, "According to logic, he should really deal with the 'Psychiatrist', after all, this ability restrains him!"

Huo Yan was thoughtful, and he shook his head lightly: "I didn't want to use a 'psychiatrist' to deal with him."

"I just want to find him and check whether Liushui and Fang Chao have any leftover influence."

Gui Yunzi narrowed his eyes seriously: "It also makes sense, he is so generous to show us the next step plan, maybe it is some kind of trap."

After he finished speaking, he spread his hands, "It's over, now I'm caught in the strange circle of thinking 'do you think he guessed it'."

Huo Yan was a little discouraged: "Liu Shui said that I can't listen to him now, and I don't know what to do."

"Look out." Gui Yunzi patted him, "Didn't we all come here before!"

Huo Yan narrowed his eyes: "Why do you feel like you are scolding me?"

"Cough." Gui Yunzi looked left and right, "What happened to You Miaomiao? Was he controlled by the other party?"

"It's not that exaggerated." Huo Yan pointed to his head, "It should be a little mental hint."

"Liu Shui is worried about making decisions later and being influenced by the other party unknowingly, so let's isolate him."

Gui Yunzi nodded knowingly: "Understood, a grain of mouse droppings ruined a pot of porridge."

"Although you know that his brain is still easy to use most of the time, but..."

Huo Yan retorted: "There is no shit in Liushui's head!"

Gui Yunzi choked: "...you have always been able to focus on the key points."

He asked, "So shall we still go to the Eastside temporary shelter?"

Huo Yan was a little hesitant, Jiang Ce just came over at this time, and his face didn't look too good: "Just now I asked Lao Xie to let some detection robots go in."

Huo Yan pricked up his ears: "You also called him 'Old Xie'?"

"...By the way." Jiang Ce cleared his throat, "We still don't know to what extent the people inside are controlled by him."

"At least the lady who asked Fang Chao to pack up and drive Fang Chao out early in the morning is obviously abnormal."

Huo Yan nodded quickly: "She also said at dinner that if it weren't for this situation, she would definitely invite us to come and play with Fang Chao often..."

"This obviously means that we neither intend to let us stay, nor do we politely refuse Fang Chao to go with us!"

"Yeah." Jiang Ce glanced at Fang Chao, who was squatting on the side, looking melancholy at Noah's Ark Building, "I told him clearly about the current situation, and he needs some time to digest."

"So you sent something in?" Gui Yunzi was startled, "You are really a man of action...how did you end up?"

"Nowhere." Jiang Ce frowned slightly, "Then we saw this mark under most of the equipment of the second team."

He motioned to the members behind him to turn over the machine, and Huo Yan leaned over it curiously. On it was a string of English abbreviations, and a pattern composed of deconstructed ships and block elements.

"English is the abbreviation of the Institute of Artificial Intelligence in the Central District of the Alliance." Jiang Ce pointed to the pattern on the side, "That is the mark of the core of the ark."

He let out a sigh of relief, "A large part of the machinery used by the alliance military industry is produced in cooperation with the Ark Core."

"Maybe their own products have left some backdoors, or they have long been prepared to be attacked by their own products one day. Anyway, the few machines we dispatched have disappeared without a trace."

Huo Yan opened his mouth: "Are there other styles?"

"The alliance has it, but we don't have it now." Jiang Ce pursed his lips, "The core of the ark is most closely connected with the Central District, and the inventory in the hands of the second team is almost their high-end products."

"You should be able to find a lot of usable things in other areas."

Huo Yan glanced at Xiao Hei with a strange expression——if this continues, they seem to have to go to other areas.

And the optimal solution is obviously the temporary shelter in the East District.

"He may have been consciously infiltrating the alliance." Jiang Ce's eyes were restrained, "He knows that his weakness is a machine that will not be affected by the mind, so he took the largest omnic group in the alliance into his own hands."

"Mind control is a very troublesome enemy. As long as he doesn't want to show his face, he can secretly pass through others and reach out to anywhere."

Gui Yunzi nodded in agreement: "There is no mention of him in the senior's information."

"It seems that he hid it well before, but this time..."

Huo Yan whispered, "It's provocation."

Jiang Ce's eyes paused slightly: "The provocation to whom?"

Huo Yan pointed to his nose: "Me."

He thought of the "S-rank" disasters that suddenly started fighting with each other when the huge black stone descended, his eyes flickered slightly.

——They were meant to fight each other, because after the final arrival, there can only be one real king.

Before, they endured until the last moment of their arrival before showing their minions to each other.But this time, Huo Yan killed Wei Ni in advance, which also aroused their sense of competition in advance.

In their eyes, his behavior may be provocation, a unilateral early declaration of war.

Jiang Ce fell silent. He didn't ask any further questions, but said, "If you want to find Qiu Changzheng, I'll go with you."

Huo Yan raised his eyes to look at him, and he didn't dodge his eyes, "Leave the third base to the old...Xie Zhanxun."

"But just in case, I will let him unload the equipment made by the Ark's core first."

"Think about where you should go."

Huo Yan opened his mouth: "I think so?"

Jiang Ce laughed: "You are the leader, of course you want to."

"You decide where everyone goes, and you decide how to go next."

Huo Yan slightly opened his eyes.

Jiang Ce rubbed his head: "In short, go back to the third base to rest. The buildings there have been roughly completed and will soon be able to be used as a normal base."

"I..." he continued silently for a moment, "I plan to open the base."

The No. 1 base in the Central District is in chaos, and all external communications and requests have not been answered for a long time. This kind of chaos may not be resolved until the new CEO takes office.

Jiang Ce didn't expect that they would be able to free up manpower to do security inspections and other protections. Once the third base is released, there will definitely be mutants who will take the opportunity to enter.

He has made up his mind.

"You have stayed near the Coke factory for too long." He looked at Huo Yan and smiled indistinctly. "Illegal organizations have stayed in the same place for too long, like living targets."

"It's better to move directly to the third base."

"To manage the entire base, our team alone is definitely not enough. I need someone who can maintain order."

He lowered his voice and patted him on the shoulder lightly, "Consider formally forming an alliance with the first team of our Special Events Department, Mr. World Tree Leader."

After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Huo Yan's immediate reply, leaving him room to think alone.

Huo Yan stayed where he was like a wooden man.

Gui Yunzi poked him on the shoulder helplessly: "Come back to your senses, come back to your senses, the leader."

Huo Yan showed a subtle smirk: "Call again."

Gui Yunzi tried to call: "Boss?"

"Hey." Huo Yan nodded contentedly, shook his head, and then his tail feathers also shook slightly, "Let's go!"

Gui Yunzi thought it was funny: "Where are you going?"

"Coax Brother Chao first!" Huo Yan trotted all the way to Fang Chao's side, squatting down in the same posture as him.

Fang Chao maintained his melancholy character, turned his head to look at him, and then slowly turned his attention to Noah's Ark Building.

He smacked his lips: "Huo, Zhou, where's the water?"

Zhou Xun replied, "Still unconscious."

"He can't help out with ideas now, hey, his little stretcher is there, just pretend he is listening."'

"Okay." Fang Chao had no objection, his expression was complicated, "I just experienced the second end of the world."

"Is what they said true? That kid Yan Yicheng... can really control the mind? Then my family..."

"It's probably affected." Huo Yan said honestly, "But I don't think he has any obvious malice towards your family."

He raised his hands up to pretend to be antennas, "My intuition is pretty good."

Fang Chao pondered for a while: "He just threw me out of the building, he probably just disliked me."

"Think about it." Zhou Xun also comforted him, "It means that it's not too pleasing to the eye, otherwise he will definitely leave you and let you wash people's feet as a little maid."

Fang Chao imagined himself wearing a maid's outfit, and shivered in a burst of sweat: "What nonsense! A soldier can be killed and can't be humiliated! I can only be a male servant if I want to be!"

Huo Yan was very moved: "He will take over! It looks much better!"

Fang Chao looked at them speechlessly, then turned his head back: "Is it really affected?"

He was a little lonely, "I didn't notice anything unusual."

"My mother scolded me yesterday, saying that I live on the west side, and the green plants on the west side are half taller than those on the east side. She asked me to move to the east side another day, and live on both sides."

"I still feel that my mother is the only one who has so many things... mental manipulation, can she still make her look like the original?"

"He may not have changed much in character." Huo Yan comforted him, "This is a good thing for you."

"That's right." Zhou Xun sang in harmony, "I'm alive anyway, and there is hope in life."

Fang Chao propped up his knees, with a bitter expression on his face: "I'm trying to recall from the beginning, whether I have offended him in any way."

Huo Yan asked: "Is there?"

"No!" Fang Chao spread his hands, "When he first came, I was afraid that he would not get used to it, so I asked him to tell me something."

"He coyly told me that Fang Ji was too fierce, and I comforted him!"

Zhou Xun didn't quite trust him: "How did you comfort me?"

"I said that although Fang Ji is not a thing, he generally doesn't bully the weak." Fang Chao scratched his head, "And it's easy to coax, as long as you are willing to pretend to be a grandson, he can treat you like a grandson."

"Do you think they get along very well?"

Huo Yan: "..."

Fang Chao raised his head and continued to think: "And..."

Huo Yan showed horror: "Is there anything else?"
