Edge of Pure Land

Chapter 15 The Pale and Flawless Girl

Lu Fuji was astonished. The dark substance in his palm stirred like a living thing, flowing along his veins, emerging from the skin of his fingertips, gathering and blooming like flowers.

 Inextricably linked, like ashes.

 As if it were a part of his body.

 “Is it something created by the seed of a god?”

 As his thoughts moved slightly, thousands of strands of ashes returned to the palm of his hand and merged into his body.

At this moment, he felt that his right hand seemed to become more powerful.

 Lu Fuji is very sure that within the same level, his fist must be more powerful.

"Could it be that there is something called dark matter in the body of the White Walkers? After the seed of the gods devoured my cancer cells, it also produced this substance. And dark matter and dark matter can devour each other and wait until they merge into me When it’s in my body, it can enhance my strength?”

Lu Fuji is not sure whether his guess is right. Obviously this is what his parents call a hidden prop, a secret weapon that can accompany players as they grow. It should have more functions than just these, but it will not be able to be unlocked for a while. .

 The good news is that he has become stronger.

 The bad news is that he is no longer a human being.

This cannot be discovered by people in the military department.

In short, after fighting cancer for nearly ten years, he finally got a chance. Even though it is not yet certain whether the cancer can be cured, he does have the capital to survive in the new world.

 He can feel the vigorous vitality in his body, which is the best proof.

The evolved life energy was repairing his body that was riddled with holes. He could clearly feel that he was much healthier than before. The tissues and organs that had been destroyed by cancer cells had been repaired, and the trauma he had suffered in the battle had basically healed. He's almost healed and feels quite full of energy.

 “The path of evolution, the first level, the origin level.”

This is the level he has reached so far. What he is currently strengthening seems to be pure physical body. He tries to clench his fists to accumulate strength, feeling that he can blow up a cow with one punch.

Of course, this is not enough to survive in this world.

 He must become stronger.

Especially the attack by a large number of White Walkers gave him a huge sense of crisis.

Those White Walkers have obviously just emerged from their cocoons, that is, they have already been deformed in their cocoons. It has been determined that they were contaminated by something, and the clues point directly to the heretics.

And when he came to this city, he completely forgot about the group of heretics. This was obviously because someone had manipulated his memory.

 But he didn't know who it was.

At this moment, a fish-belly white color appeared in the east, the sky was filled with vast fog, the towering sentry tower was illuminated by a ray of sunlight, and a loud horn sounded in the silent military camp.

 “Brother Lu, are you awake?”

He Sai also woke up from his sleep and was very surprised to see him waking up: "How do you feel? Do you feel that obvious feeling of aging? You don't know, I was really scared to death yesterday. I'm really afraid that after I fall asleep, I will be stiff when I wake up..."

The corners of Shika Fuji's eyes twitched slightly: "I'm very good. Don't worry about me for the time being. The sacred rhythm doesn't have such a big burden on me. At least I can live for a while."

He still didn't tell the truth about this. After all, the God's Seed belonged to the heretics, and it was very likely to be involved in some terrible things. It was best not to involve others.

 If there is any problem, he can just take it upon himself.

"Really or not? Let's go together, brothers, as we promised."

José got up from his sleeping bag in surprise and walked around him. He found no signs of premature aging: "We have agreed to be orphans in troubled times together. You must keep your word."

Lu Buer put his hand on his forehead: "You are indeed talking about iron-blooded orphans. Don't worry about those who have some or not. Not only will I not die, but I am also very ferocious. It won't be a problem to beat you two."

 After speaking, he picked up a piece of wood and tore it apart with both hands.

 Click.

 The wooden pile shattered with a sound and broke into two halves.

José was not convinced, so he picked up a wooden stake and tore it apart with all his strength!

 The wooden pile was unscathed.

“No way, the gap is so big?”

José’s face turned green: “Am I a weakling?”

“Not really, my strength is not much greater than yours, but it just exceeds the ultimate pressure that the wooden pile can withstand, so don’t be discouraged, you can do it after a while.”

Lu Buer glanced at him and suddenly asked: "He Sai, do you still remember what we encountered in the land of the past? Do you still remember that group of heretics?"

He Sai was stunned: "What kind of heresy?"

 Sure enough, this guy forgot.

Lu Buer shook his head and said: "It's okay, I just said it casually."

 They were both in a good mood.

 Because after arriving at the military camp, I woke up smoothly.

 And gained a lot of military exploits.

Wait a minute.

 Speaking of military exploits…

 The two brothers looked at each other.

 They all thought of the female major from yesterday.

“He is a superior, so he shouldn’t give us two small shoes, right?”

José murmured.

 “I hope not, let’s clean it up first.”

Lu Buer was not sure. He first added some firewood to the fireplace, then boiled and opened two packages of self-heating military rations for breakfast. Then he took off his military uniform that was full of blood and corpse fluids, washed it, and put it on the shelf. Drying over a campfire.

The conditions in this military camp are indeed relatively simple, but fortunately the food is fully guaranteed, but it is **** for the previously pampered recruits.

 The quality of life has plummeted.

  It's almost like a refugee.

 Just get through it and get through it.

 But only if they catch the thieves who embezzled supplies!

After washing their clothes, there was not enough water in the shed. Fortunately, there was a well in the camp where they could draw water. The two of them ran along carrying the buckets, shivering with cold.

Even if we embark on the path of evolution, we still cannot withstand such severe cold.

People are getting up one after another in the camp. They live in carefully built tents, and have oatmeal and smoked ham for breakfast, and even coffee and morning tea.

At this time, the horn sounded in the military camp, and the adjutant of Major Hara Qing led the flag raiser through the camp and raised the flag on the flag stand. At this moment, both new soldiers and veterans came out of the tent, looked up at the sky with their hands on their chests, and saluted.

“I hereby swear that as an evolver of the new era and a member of the Human Watch Army, I am willing to fight for world peace, maintain order, and protect the weak…”

I saw a bright red flag rising in the wind, waving in the military camp, as if telling the history of the past five hundred years.

José’s face was full of longing, and he transformed from an unknown student into a soldier. This seemed to be a very proud thing for him.

Lu Fuji silently bowed his gaze and felt a little dazed for a moment.

How wonderful have these five hundred years been?

 The adjutant held his fist against his chest under the flag and returned the salute to the soldiers.

Then he waved and said, "Let's go."

 The soldiers in the military camp also returned the salute, turned around and went about their own business.

 “Why didn’t you see Major Hara Qing today?”

 “Why, it’s a pity that I can’t see the beautiful girl?”

"Who said that? Instructor Kashiwagi is not here? Could it be that something happened?"

“Pull him down, we haven’t had any trouble in the military period for a long time. If you have nothing to do, go and get some missions to earn some merit. No matter how few mosquito legs you have, they are still meat!”

 The soldiers whispered and turned to leave.

"Is this the end? Is there no morning jog in the military camp? Why aren't there even instructors?" Lu Buer heard the instructor say during training that as long as there are no tasks during the deployment period, the soldiers' time is relatively free. If you run around, no one will care about you.

"I don't know. Even if these veterans are left unattended, we are new recruits. How come no one comes to train us?" He Sai said he couldn't understand and was very confused.

“You two are also cocoon breakers, right? Didn’t you listen carefully during the training period?”

A bald middle-aged soldier walked past them and sneered: "How dare you ask someone to train you alone? It seems that you don't understand the technology of the new world. We don't need to train you day after day at all." We train hard every day, and our physical fitness improves with the advancement of the realm. As for the combat experience and skills... we can just exchange them for memory chips. "

"What is a memory chip?" "The cheapest ten merit chips. Once you get one, just attach it to your eyebrows and meditate. The sacred rhythm will make you feel the memory it contains, and then implant the memory into your mind. ”

The middle-aged soldier kindly said: "By then, the skills in the memory chip will become your instinct, and there is no need to exercise hard every day. I have mastered four swordsmanship and six swordsmanships in the four months since I came to the new world." Close combat, including gun fighting."

Lu Fuji didn’t expect that there was such a thing in the new world. The instructor probably told it during the training period, but he didn’t listen carefully because he was sick.

He Sai asked curiously: "Brother, do you dare to ask Gui Geng?"

 “Twenty years old!”

The middle-aged soldier was quite confident in himself and smiled brightly: "You're very young, aren't you? My name is Zhou Yi. I come from the same place as you. You can tell by the accent, right? I used to live there on Science and Technology Street. I was a programmer a hundred years ago, please take good care of me in the future!”

 After saying that, he picked up the bucket and left.

 Shika Fuji was dumbfounded.

“You are indeed young, a programmer practices sacred rhythm, and the buff stack is full.”

José murmured.

  Lu Fujiu fell into deep thought: "The memory chip does sound like a good thing. If you want to survive, you must replace it first... He Sai, how much merit do we have?"

José shook his head and said: "I don't know, our achievements are still being counted. By the way, Brother Lu, you have to be careful. The adjutant told me yesterday..."

 He told what he learned yesterday about the Holy Riot Syndrome.

Shika Fuji was stunned for a moment, thinking that’s why.

No wonder he became so irritable yesterday. In fact, he still feels restless and wants to release the surging power in his body. His mood is quite unstable.

 Coupled with the influence of the seed of the gods, it becomes even more morbid.

 They wandered around the camp and got familiar with the environment.

 “Brother Lu, what are you looking at?”

 “White Walker.”

  Lu Fuji looked at the corpses of the White Walkers that had not been cleaned up outside the camp, and did not feel any reaction from the seed of the gods, which meant that these things were very picky eaters.

 A White Walker who has eaten will not eat it again.

 He has to find some more advanced White Walkers.

However, according to his understanding, the white ghosts that the recruits can handle are just the lowest humanoid mummies. He doesn't know how long it will take to survive here.

And there are still people in this **** place who are withholding supplies!

 No, we can’t go on like this.

Have to find a way to get promoted as soon as possible.

Lu Fuji made a plan for himself, which was to strengthen himself by contacting higher-level White Walkers and swallowing the dark matter in their bodies, and then rely on the strengthened power to gain more merits in the military, thus Go further on the road to evolution.

 But the premise is that he can't even take the first step now.

These monsters are so rubbish!

The hovering sound of a drone sounded overhead, and the cold mechanical voice sounded again: "Private Lu Buer, Private He Sai, please go to the munitions depot immediately to collect your resources!"

He Sai's eyes widened: "Hey, we are not new recruits anymore? I have become a third-class soldier? Brother Lu, why are you a second-class soldier? Wait, I understand, you killed a lot of White Walkers yesterday!"

Lu Fuji pondered for a moment: "Go and take a look first before talking."

  ·

  ·

After the drone issued the notification order, the adjutant had already arrived at the camp, led the soldiers to leave Wuzhen, and returned to the military base by car.

 For veterans in the military camp, they are already familiar with the journey.

 Only the new recruits looked around.

 Some people are interested in the weapons and equipment in the base.

 Some people just drool over the beautiful female soldiers.

“Adjutant, are there reserves coming this time?”

 Someone asked.

"Yes, you will meet the military reservists next. They are not yet qualified to comprehend the sacred rhythm, but their talents are very good. As leaders, you must treat them well. Of course, if both of you are willing, Maybe even start a family together.”

The adjutant chatted casually: "Back then, I first met my adoptive father at the military headquarters. At that time, I was an Internet-addicted boy who had just emerged from his cocoon. My former family members were not around, and I was rebellious and willful. When I met my adoptive father, At that time, I felt that his face was full of scars, and he was fierce and ugly.”

He paused: "I hated him at that time, but he was very patient with me. He taught me step by step how to chop wood and make a fire, teach me how to set up a tent, teach me how to use a gun, and teach me **** White Walkers. Later I found out, His face was covered in scars from saving children in a fire. He loved children because he never saw his two-year-old son again after he was sealed in the cocoon."

"I have been with him for more than half a year, and I have never called him father. In fact, I have already recognized him in my heart. It was his birthday and he went out on a mission. I prepared dinner for him and waited for him to come back. It was a surprise to him. He didn’t expect to wait for this for twenty years.”

The adjutant smiled as he recalled those years, and slowly took out a blood-stained photo from his arms. It showed a frizzy child and an ugly soldier standing side by side in a rice field.

 The frizzy child has grown up now.

 Ugly soldiers never come back.

The belated call from father didn’t come out after all.

"Oh, my wife was also a reserve soldier back then, and I taught her step by step, **** white ghosts, and how to survive... Later, she remarried the old Wang next door."

Someone muttered something, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

“When you put it this way, I also miss the sister who taught me back then. I wonder how she is doing now. Maybe she is a mother now?”

 “I hate bringing reserves. I don’t like being a burden.”

“At least they can help you with the work, what’s wrong? I really want to gather my numerology. It would be great if I were a child of one of those ancient aristocratic families, and I would have extra resources.”

These soldiers have been on the front line for a long time and know a lot.

They are not high-level talents and need to practice for many years before they are qualified to lead the reserves. For many people, this is a burden, but some people think that it is a kind of inheritance.

 As for resources, they discussed less.

I heard them say that after the divine tree came to the world, some of the first people to awaken discovered huge treasures in ancient ruins around the world, and were far ahead of others on the road to evolution.

 The descendants of these people are now the family of evolvers.

 Very powerful.

  It's not something they can compare with.

Lu Fuji’s heart moved slightly as he listened to these stories.

A lot of people here seem to have stories.

 And his story seems to have just begun.

 He reminded in a low voice: "José, your wife is coming."

José’s eyes twitched: “Don’t talk nonsense!”

The munitions depot is like a huge collection hall. There are armed guards guarding both sides of the road. The adjutant at the front door has been waiting for a long time with a pile of documents.

They passed through layers of thick metal doors. Every time they passed through a door, they were subject to a laser security scan. Cameras in all directions rotated to lock on every soldier. Along the way, they passed through heavily guarded office areas. Senior military officers They come and go.

 “Don’t look around, and don’t talk around.”

The adjutant distributed the documents to everyone and took them to an open-air courtyard. It was as peaceful and quiet as a monastery. The courtyard was full of life with birds singing and flowers fragrant. A holy angel stone statue sat in the center of the pool, and the fountain sprayed fine water. Pearls, shining in the sun.

This is where the reservists study and further their training.

It's many times better than the front line.

 “Follow the number on the document and find the corresponding room.”

Lu Fuji's document number is thirteen. As for the specific laws and regulations, there are twenty pages. It will take a while to read them all. I can only find the corresponding room first.

 “Brother Lu, I’m leaving!”

José’s file number is twenty-seven, obviously in the other direction.

It was obviously not the first time that the soldiers came to this monastery to collect resources. They found the room according to the corresponding number with ease, opened the door and walked in.

 Lu Fuji was vaguely aware of something, and arrived at Room 13 with an uneasy mood. He tried to turn the door handle, and the door opened slightly, letting in the sunlight.

 In the bright sunshine, the girl carved in ice raised her eyes, her pupils pale and flawless.

 “It’s our first time meeting you, brother.”
