Chapter 200 Someone
"Then what is your mission?"
Li frowned slightly, feeling that this mission was a bit suspicious.
"Check the battlefield," Hua said. "That city has been cleaned up many times by other teams. It is almost impossible for the dead soldiers and Honkaiju to survive."
"So we're just going through the motions? Just walking around the city for a day like shopping, and then we can come back?"
"……Roughly the same?"
Hua thought for a moment and accepted Li's statement.
"That's okay."
Li relaxed a little. If the two of them were really asked to clean up an entire city of dead warriors and Honkai beasts, even the remaining ones wouldn't be something they could clean up in one day.
If that's the case, then it's better to rush to the base of Fire Chaser, grab the collar of the person who issued the task, and force him to cancel the task, or throw him into the trash can. .
"Then let's go. Finish it early and come back early to rest."
"Well, thank you."
"I already said you don't need to say thank you."
……
Peg City, which is Li Yuhua's target location, is full of broken walls and dark red bloodstains. All high-rise buildings have collapsed, causing most of the roads to be blocked, making it impossible to travel. On the limited ground It was also covered with huge holes, which looked like the footprints of some giant creature.
This scene completely fits the two people's vision of what it would be like after the disaster.
Is this really a disaster that a few Honkai patients can cause?
Li didn't believe it.
"Hua, which way should we go next?"
Standing on a street in the city, Li asked as he looked at a collapsed building that stretched across the street.
This is the unknown number of times that the road has been blocked, and they have been stopped once after taking a few steps. If they had not had a map, they would have been able to avoid it by taking a detour.
"...Let's take a detour."
Hua said these three words again.
"Tsk, I don't know how the other teams completed the sweep under such circumstances. This is not a place where people can walk."
Li complained that although he didn't feel tired, walking around was a little annoying.
"They all have helicopters."
Hua answered Li's doubts with just one sentence.
"...What about us?"
Li pointed back and forth between herself and Hua dumbfounded, "Even if there are only two of us, we are still working tirelessly for the Fire Chaser. Are they not even willing to give us a helicopter?"
"In the past, it was always the captain who applied..."
Hua's expression darkened slightly, and it was obvious that she had not fully understood what the captain's position required.
"Stop! My fault, I shouldn't have brought up this topic." Li made a pause gesture, "It's just a helicopter. I don't care about it. Even without a helicopter, we can still be here on the ground."
As he spoke, Li approached the collapsed building in front of him and put his hand on it. After a while, the entire building disappeared and turned into a small ball in his hand.
"..."
Hua looked at this scene in surprise. Although he had seen similar scenes before, he still couldn't believe his eyes when he saw it again.
Is this the power of fusion warriors? So powerful...
Throwing away the small ball in his hand, Li sighed. He originally wanted to save some energy and use his abilities, but now it seems that he might as well just use them from the beginning and take a detour in vain.
Looking at the empty street in front of her again, Li said to Hua: "Let's go, just follow the prescribed route. If there are things blocking you, leave it all to me."
"it is good."
……
The two of them traveled again for an unknown number of kilometers. Apart from some dried purple or red bloodstains and broken walls, they saw nothing else. It seemed that, as Hua said, this battlefield had already It was cleaned up.
"Want to rest?"
Li turned to look at Hua, who was not out of breath but sweating a lot, and asked.
"Well... rest."
Hua didn't try to be brave. After walking for so long, even she who was keen on practicing martial arts and exercising was a little overwhelmed. On the other hand, Guanli was jumping up and down, and from time to time she ran to the roof of a building to observe the situation. To be honest, Hua was a little envious.
"Okay, let's go over there, there will be a seat."
Li pointed at an abandoned clothing store not far away. The door was locked, and the various things inside didn't seem to be affected much. After the collapse, people here either died or fled, so a lot of property was left behind. Come down.
Knocking on the door, the two walked in. There was no light, and the store seemed a bit dark.
Without a flashlight, Li had no choice but to turn on the lighting function of her phone and checked around, but found no dead men lurking here.
"Actually, we can sit here until we get off work."
Li put forward his own idea.
"But the mission..."
Hua hesitated and said, she was relatively honest and had never thought about the option of being lazy. For her, since it was a task, it had to be completed well.
"The Fire Chaser probably didn't send anyone to monitor it, right?"
"……No."
"This city has been cleaned up by other teams, right?"
"……Maybe."
"So it doesn't matter whether we do our mission or not?"
"..."
"Hua, don't be too rigid in your life, be flexible and changeable. You can still be lazy when you should be lazy." Li patted Hua on the shoulder, "Anyway, there is nothing left in this city, so what's the point of being lazy? Woolen cloth?"
"But……"
"Don't worry, after walking for so long, we haven't encountered anything that moves. We probably won't gain much if we continue."
"Li, over there..."
"This city has been dead for a long time. Unless a dead soldier, human or Honkaimon appears now to give us some motivation, then it will only make sense to continue the mission."
"Li, there is someone."
"What?"
Following Hua's line of sight, Li found a man moving slowly outside the clothing store.
Is there really anyone? And it’s still human?
Li didn't find any signs of becoming a dead soldier on the man, which meant that he was a genuine human being.
only……
Li looked at the man's unfocused pupils, and his body was swaying, as if he hadn't woken up at all. Did he feel something was wrong?
"I gonna go see."
Seeing that the man was about to walk out of their sight, Hua quickly stood up from his chair. Since there are humans here, it means that this city is not a dead city. There may be some hidden dead soldiers and Honkai. Wasn't the beast discovered by them?
In this case, the man standing alone outside is likely to be in danger.
Li thought for a moment, then got up and followed. Although there was only a human outside and could not hurt Hua at all, just in case, one of the mission goals he assigned to himself was to ensure Hua's safety. He did not want to cause harm to Hua due to his mistakes. Hua is in danger.
