The prisoner and the sea

Sparks came to the office and asked for a batch of funds for the research of alchemy potions.

Mihaila came to the office and asked for funds for alchemy research. At the same time, she showed off the developed multifunctional armed belt and asked for more funds for mass production.

The Clerical Cult has hoarded a batch of monster materials and needs a sum of money to clean up and purify them before they can sell them for money.

The Demon Roses have stolen some demon technology and are preparing to make some demon artillery for sale.

"Middleria!" Gwen signed another word, calculated with distress, and after the military reserves had decreased by another 7%, she finally couldn't help calling for Middleria who was working hard.

The other party looked up at him.

The red hair is a bit naturally curly, and she looks quite intellectual wearing a pair of black glasses.

"Captain Gwen?"

Gwen asked: "Didn't you come to control me, uh, help me control my money outflow, why are you spending so much today?"

"These are called investment and equipment assets."

Middlelia said: "Your money has become equipment and raw materials, but your assets have not been reduced because of this, because the equipment and raw materials are placed here and will not run away, and they will not grow their own legs. That is, they are no longer for military use, but they are still your assets, and your money has not decreased. Then these things will eventually become commodities. After they are sold, they will be your Lilan. We are on the road to health Farther."

healthy financial situation.

Gwen let out a sigh of relief: "However, I see that our cash balance seems to be a bit insufficient?"

"Because of this, I apply to you to receive a batch of cash and use it as an additional personal investment for you."

"Um?"

Middlelia flicked her hair, showing a malicious smile: "I have already calculated the specific parameters of the first batch of scumbags quite clearly, and I have compiled them into a special task force. Convinced them by talking about a secret squad.”

"Huh?" Gwen crossed her hands in interest, her elbows resting on the table, her chin resting on her knuckles. "Tell me carefully?"

Ms. Mi said with a smirk: "There are such a group of people, they are human scum, and they have stored a batch of good goods and funds on the Laoxiangren. Of course, we can take these things without their consent, but they Definitely going to be mad. So I thought maybe I could talk to them and tell them there's a village train out of the old folks, a small village of sixty or seventy people, good for some mind flayer sacrifices , and open a buffet."

Long Yan offered us a small village train to use? Gwen looked at Miss Mi.

Miss Mi spread her hands: "Then, a terrible monster will appear on that village. Unfortunately, our scum squad will be wiped out, and our great little Pope Zoe will reward them and kill that powerful monster." The monster, pack up everyone's remains and burn them, and then pull out the material of that monster, and leave a small part of it to Captain Long Yan in exchange for the other party's understanding. Let's gather up the legacy of this scumbag team, the document teaching group Harvesting money, you receive part of the money, part of the materials and inner happiness, and Captain Long Yan also reaps happiness and part of the materials, everyone is happy."

...

A win-win situation means that a third party will definitely be victimized, and a triple-win situation means that the victims must suffer particularly serious injuries.

Fortunately, this time the victim should not file a labor complaint.

"What kind of monster makes Long Yan want its material?"

When proposing a deal, Gwen does not dislike this deal, but the premise is that he knows what Long Yan is going to do.

Ms. Mi said: "An angel, a fallen angel. It once descended into Utopia as some kind of evil god and caused a series of tragedies. The worship target of yin's fanatical believers. Longyan can't summon it, but you can use the source power as bait, use the fallen souls of those scum as temptation, it will show up, and when the time comes, justice and Justice will have its own way."

an evil god. no, a fallen
Fallen angels, fallen angels, some kind of mutants of fallen angels, I don't know what disgusting abilities will evolve, but all in all, this is a very strong monster.

It is the source of all kinds of dark and evil rituals.

It seems that the object of worship of most murderers is this evil angel.

Angel is strong, but not that strong.

The only thing to worry about is how much the fallen angels will become stronger. In fact, Gwen has some misunderstandings about the fallen angels. Except for a small number of talented angels, they will become stronger after falling. Most of them will only become weaker, because the strength of angels is fake strength rather than hard power. Most of them rely on "having a father on top of their heads" to support the panel and strength. Falling means "no father" or "changed stepfather, Very few people are kind to their wives' children who are not their own.

"Its specific combat power?"

"Dragon Flame can kill in seconds."

Well.
"specific?"

Miss Mi rubbed her hair and took a breath: "Well, if Long Yan fights it, it will take about ten rounds for Long Yan to kill it. For you, if it is in full bloom, it will take about five rounds. About ten rounds."

This means that even if the entire scum squad is equipped with consumables against it, there will be no chance or possibility of counter-killing.

It also means that objects must be targeted.

Unable to kill quickly means that there will be a lot of trouble.

Gwen asked: "Can't Long Yan go with me?"

"He was targeted by the special task force, and, do you remember what I said? That fallen angel is quite cunning. It smelled the source power of Longyan and would not come back. More importantly, Longyan was taken down back then. A curse, the curse is not to hurt him, but to hurt it! Understand? It is a curse that wherever the dragon flame appears, the wings of this fallen birdman will hurt. In this way, it can obtain Message from Longyan."

Ms. Mi said: "This is a very dangerous thing, and it is also a very scary thing."

She paused and repeated: "It's very dangerous. If Long Yan is perceived that he is not on the fellow, big things will happen, especially now, it was okay before, Long Yan has a magical thing that can make him Pretending to be still here, but actually not. But such a strange thing needs a certain amount of fuel, and there is not much fuel on the Old Villager, so there is no way to supply it all the time, and now he is in the stage of being out of stock."

...

Gwen nodded, "I see."

Now it's Middleria's turn to be curious:

"Can you do it quickly?"

"I'm trying to figure it out quickly."

Gwen cryptically indicated that he did not want to be tracked, and at the same time he did not want his information to be pried.

Rest apartment.

Anna Li had a gloomy expression on her face, but she controlled her expression so as not to let any wrinkle appear between her brows, because once it appeared...
"Is your home making you uncomfortable?"

The gentle tone made Annalie uncomfortable, and she squeezed a smile at the young and easy mouse girl beside her with a sweet, crazy and caring smile:
"fine."

"Did I make you uncomfortable?" Squirrel Girl moved closer, "I know, we are strangers to you. Your name is Anna Li, right? It's a nice name, do you want mango pudding? I bought it new."

Guilt fills the young mind flayer's mind.

She shouldn't feel guilty.

But feel it now.

She shouldn't feel guilty.

But the flame of guilt made her voice feel like it was going to be hoarse. What she used was the corpse of the daughter of the woman in front of her, and the other party treated her unconditionally because she was a daughter.In this way, he is like a thief, an indescribably despicable thief.

Looking at this woman.

Anna Li wants to say: Wake up, your daughter is dead, standing in front of you is a reanimated ghost, a... terrible
Unbelievable.

If anything.

But, is it correct to be so sensible? Does it mean the right thing if it is correct? At least not here. It is easy to crush the illusion of the other party with one sentence, but what if it breaks not only the fantasy?
Crushing, what if it's not just this woman's fantasy?
Anna Li's eyes, which were dyed inflamed, looked at the woman quietly.

She is crazy, but this kind of madness is a kind of painful memory and extravagant hope.

This woman believes in Yuanli.

Analie thought.

This woman believed that miracles would happen, that this completely unfamiliar but extremely familiar girl in front of her would react to her favorite food and favorite toy.Little by little, it was as if the electric current had triggered a convulsion in the dead frog's thigh, hoping that the slightest convulsion would bring about a miracle of resurrection.

What would happen if this little bit of spiritual support was smashed?
The mind flayer was a little confused.

She has never been with people.

The other mind flayers are all the same, and they all have the same appearance. Although they have their own personalities, when they get together, they are the type who will use "whether or not" to ask and answer questions.

"Done?" "Yes/No"

"No success?" "Yes/No"

"Go hunting in xx?" "Yes/No"

Not too much emotional interaction.

So, this kind of emotional interaction successfully made myself lost and confused.

Even more terrifying.

Annalie thought of her past self.

I started to think of:

"Have I ever killed...an innocent person like this woman? Have I ever killed someone like this woman's daughter?"

Think so.

Anna Li suddenly found out.

Emotions come.

...

Pain and panic, self-blame and sorrow, the feeling of waking up and realizing that you have missed something important.

Ding dong.

Ding-dong-

The doorbell broke the gaze between Anna Li and the woman. The other party looked away and ran to the door with small steps to open it.Anna Li breathed a sigh of relief. After watching it, she was afraid of showing her weakness and guilt, and afraid of breaking the other party's dream that was as fragile as a teacup.

Could it be the big squirrels coming back? Analeigh thought, but she froze again.

why yourself.
Do not use source power perception? If you use source power perception, it is not easy.
"Is it me who wants to be human? No, is it an ordinary human?"

There will be no answer to this question.

"Mr. Gwen, you are here."

It's Gwen.

Annalie felt inexplicably relieved.It's like a cat that was scared outside feels at ease when it hears the person who picks it up, although it's a metaphor.

Gwen explained her purpose.

"I need to take Anna Li on a mission. I'm thinking, if she's still at your house, I don't have to wait for her where she works."

In order to avoid misunderstanding, and to create a situation where "the person who borrowed your daughter's body will not be your daughter", it was all said to the outside world that Anna Li was working on the Sniper Cat and needed a daily job.Although the young lady in front of me once said, "Let such a small child go to work?", but the older lady gave a reality hit, "Small because of her small body."

Gwen didn't like doing it very much, because she always saw the gloomy look in the woman's eyes.

The young Squirrel Girl was silent for a moment, and asked, "Why didn't she go to school?" "She didn't go to work today."

"The work here is relatively free, and it belongs to free piece work."

Gwen took out the

With the words, he waved at Anna Li:

"Let's go, I still have a lot of things to do today."

Obviously, Annalie breathed a sigh of relief.

Gwen looked at the young Mrs. Squirrel and waved:

"She will pay the rent. From before, she is not a person who lives in vain."

Get into Artyom's car.

Anna Li's expression relaxed a lot.She must be bad at dealing with emotional things like this, Gwen thought.Young mind flayers probably don't spend as much time with humans as they do with cat lanterns that occasionally serve as roadside alarms.She must have suffered from the sweetness and pain of emotion, Gwen judged.

Because he did it on purpose.

Have mind flayers get up close and personal with a mother or two who have lost a daughter.

The birth of emotion will dull the mind flayer's knife, a sharp blade that can hurt anyone, and Gwen hopes to make it a sharp blade mainly used against monsters.

"...how is she treating you?" Gwen asked in a calm, unwavering tone.He found out that he really can't act, so he simply put on a paralyzed face and low emotional feedback, so that it would be even more difficult for others to see through.

"Fine." The mind flayer didn't want to answer.

Gwen condensed a trace of warmth on her fingertips.

"Fine, it doesn't look like she's using you as a stand-in or replacement for her daughter," he said.

The source of warmth has been reduced a little.

An insignificant, insignificant, inaudible speck.If it wasn't for Gwen's extremely serious attention to weigh the source power, she would not be able to feel it at all, and would not be able to know that she had caused pain to the mind flayer.

"A mother who has lost her child will look for a substitute for her child. It would be great if she didn't have this characteristic. We don't want that kind of result either, it will cause harm to each other." Gwen felt the source force continued to weaken.

"Perhaps." Annalie's voice changed back to an emotionless level, or rather, it sounded like someone who had cried and suppressed their voice to answer.

"No possibility." Gwen turned her head and looked at Annalie. "You are a mind flayer, a strange story. If human beings have feelings for you, it is really the worst thing. We are mind flayers, so you The only one you can rely on is me, the one you can trust can only be me, the same kind, isn’t it?”

"Yes. So I won't have redundant and useless emotions, Gwen." Annalie said with a blank expression, "Let's talk about the task."

Now, it was as if two mind flayers were having a conversation.
