Chapter 199 Long time no see

The arrest mission ended successfully, and the joint operation mission finally achieved a complete victory. This action team, led by the ICU and assisted by the madhouse, successfully captured and brought to justice Li Changcheng, the biggest traitor in the history of the madhouse. During this period, not a single soldier was used, and not a single shot was fired.

At first glance, such a description makes this action seem a bit high-end, but those who personally participated may find it a bit unclear.

The main problem is that you said they captured this person, which seems to be correct. When a whole team of them arrived at the gate of the human base with loaded guns and ammunition, the inside was already a mess, and the action team was still separated by a hundred thousand people.

Eight thousand miles away, the entire terrorist armed stronghold has been basically turned upside down.

Anyway, when they arrived at the scene, there was only one person left in the whole camp who was still breathing, and it was Li Changcheng they were arresting. This guy had an arm broken during the confrontation with Wolverine, but he is still in good condition.

An arm was handcuffed at the entrance to an underground fortification.

The team was also surprised by the specifications of the fortifications. The appraisal results showed that the facility was designed to withstand nuclear strikes, and may be no less than the safe houses of some big shots on the Earth Planet. Moreover, this thing was buried deep underground and set up

With various shielding methods, if their arrest team arrived at the scene, they might miss this place.

But the steel figure who attacked the base was not missed. There was a crack like a burn mark on the thick iron door, and the scene was shocking.

Experts quickly concluded from the traces left at the scene that this was the effect of some kind of energy weapon. However, the energy weapons of Dijixing are still at the conceptual level. Although there is this theory, there is no basis for weaponization.

So a group of experts scratched their heads and couldn't imagine what kind of horrific output it would take to create such a cutting effect.

The remaining people in the room facilities have also died.

Technically speaking, Li Changcheng was really captured by them. But skipping the battle process makes people feel a bit subtle, because someone did all the work for them and the people they wanted to arrest were also packed up. They

A large number of people drove the army over with great fanfare just to come and sign.

In fact, to be fair, Siegel felt that their operation was efficient enough. After locating the target location, they assembled the team in almost the shortest time, quickly conducted reconnaissance, assessment and organized the attack.

However, there are gods on their side, not only with great speed but also with unreasonable fighting power. They single-handedly rushed into the stronghold of the human army and opened Wushuang, and the thunderous force was taken down. It can only be said that they have tried hard, but this head is really snatched away.

but.

However, everyone in the lunatic asylum is already familiar with this process and routine. Anyway, the entire lunatic asylum has never been persecuted by those superheroes so far. Now that everything is over, the situation has changed, and the lunatic asylum gang is watching the ICU as if they are strangers.

Looking at their old road, there is still a sense of joy inexplicably.

Especially the equipment department headed by Minister Shi, when they saw the people in the pharmaceutical factory being shocked when they saw Iron Man's unscientific armor and reshaping their lives with suspicion, they felt as if they had seen their own shadow.

There is a third part of sympathy and a third part of gloating.

To be fair, they didn't want to put it on at the beginning, but each of these masks looked more inhumane than the others, and it was only after they put it up that they found it was so comfortable, making people feel like there's nothing wrong with hanging behind people and wiping their butts full-time.

.

Anyone else who wants to wipe the big boss’s butt has no chance.

A few hours later, Li Changcheng was locked in the interrogation room of the pharmaceutical factory. Siegel, who was in charge of leading the team, sat directly opposite him.

After Laitos, who supported him behind the scenes, was killed by Batman, Li Changcheng lost the ability to operate the Tis Shield. Now he has returned to an ordinary special person.

In addition, one of his arms was chopped off by Wolverine. With his ability level as a special person, he cannot heal such an injury on his own. And the shackles he wears have the effect of inhibiting his abilities. There are a large number of armed agents outside the door who are always on guard.

, making it almost impossible for him to escape.

Of course, Li Changcheng didn't seem to have this intention at all.

Li Changcheng in the interrogation room seemed to be quite cooperative. He reacted calmly, without panic or anger, almost as if he was unaware of his dire situation. He answered the interrogator's questions calmly, with an attitude

It's like chatting.

To everyone's surprise, Li Changcheng passed all the tests for infected people.

He was not infected - or to be precise, not mentally.

This seems reasonable, because special people are not so easily infected. But at the same time, it also means that everything Li Changcheng did was out of his own will.

"So you are saying," Siegel glanced at the confession notes and raised his eyebrows, "what you have done is entirely out of distrust of humans and this entire race?"

"That's about it." Li Changcheng said calmly.

"Do you think the things you awakened can make human beings better?" Siegel flipped through his notes and raised his eyelids to look at Li Changcheng, as if observing his expression.

"Yes. I have studied for a long time before coming to this conclusion." Li Changcheng remained calm as if he was having an academic exchange, "They will transform the human body and give us the power to surpass our own limits.

Because people are all fragile, whether mentally or physically, they are always very weak and vulnerable. There are some things that you think you will not waver in anyway, and you think you can be firm until the end, but you find that this is not the case when things happen.

.People are not as tough as they think they are, no matter in anything, because this is our innate flaw.

And they will strengthen our spirit, fill in the faith we lack, and make us unwavering and unwavering no matter what we face.

That is exactly what humans need, and it is the incomplete part of us. Because humans are such creatures, evolutionary flaws make us incomplete and prevent us from breaking through on our own.

We are failures, so we are destined to rely on them to become perfect."

"I believe that the method you describe is 'infection'." Siegel tapped the table with his pen and said.

"The name is not very nice, but we can change its name in the future." Li Changcheng said nonchalantly.

"Okay... so your motivation is to... guide human evolution. But have you ever considered that maybe the being you are trying to awaken is not the helpful type?

I mean...the current Earth Star belongs to us humans, but once they wake up, they may have different opinions?"

"Of course." Li Changcheng nodded and said seriously, "But as I said, we are failed evolutions and have no ability to improve ourselves. So since we want to help, we naturally need to pay some corresponding price."

"Your views are really extreme. I'm surprised no one has ever noticed it before."

Siegel said and continued to look through the files. Here is a record of Li Changcheng's personal information that they found. Most of it was originally top secret, but now the arresting team has been authorized to gain access under special circumstances.

"So I guess your thoughts must have something to do with your experience in the terrorist camp?"

Li Changcheng seemed not surprised that the other party raised this question, and only responded calmly: "A person's past will shape a person to a large extent. We are all defined by our own past, more or less."

"Got it. Then it seems like I'm not the best person to have this conversation with."

Siegel stood up, walked to the door of the interrogation room, and held the door handle.

"...he is."

He turned the handle and opened the door.

The door was opened.

A man's figure appeared behind the door. He was limping, half of his body supported by mechanical limbs. His movements even seemed a bit clumsy, but his weathered face showed a bit of perseverance that ordinary people don't have.

For the first time since sitting in this interrogation room, Li Changcheng's pupils shrank slightly and his expression changed slightly.

Leng Shaokang stood at the door and smiled at him like an old friend reunited.

"Long time no see, Lao Li."

Leng Shaokang walked into the interrogation room, and Siegel immediately stood up and went out, closing the door behind him.

Soon there were only two old comrades left in the room.

Leng Shaokang sat down opposite Li Changcheng, and the two looked at each other speechlessly for a while.

"...How have you been lately?" Leng Shaokang was the first to break the silence.

Li Changcheng raised his arm and motioned to the shackles on his hands, and the metal chain was pulled loudly.

"As you can see, it's just so-so." He shrugged, "It's getting harder and harder to accomplish anything these days, but I can still deal with it for the time being."

He paused and his eyes fell on the replaced leg of his old comrade.

Leng Shaokang noticed his gaze, but he didn't intend to avoid it. He just stretched out his leg generously and smiled.

"This guy is getting more and more clumsy." He patted the prosthetic joint, "Do you remember the question you asked me at that time? What is the thing you want to do most after you go back?

I said I couldn't wait to hold my little girl, and I didn't want to waste a second. I wasn't with her when she was born, and I had never held her in my life.

Later, I finally got what I wanted, and I returned to her, but I still couldn't hold her up... Ha, with this stupid piece of shit, I couldn't even stand up on my own."

He tapped his metal leg again, seeming quite dissatisfied with it. But his expression was still smiling, as if he was casually chatting with an old friend.

"Of course, as an old guy who saved his life from the battlefield, my treatment is pretty good. They inspect and repair me every year. Now this leg is a product that has been updated twice. They give me

I guarantee that this is the best choice in the relevant fields at present, but it seems like that’s it.”

Li Changcheng stared at his leg for a moment and remained silent.

Neither of them mentioned that matter, but they both knew it tacitly. They all knew how Leng Shaokang lost his leg, which was exactly what they experienced in that terrorist camp.

They fought together, were captured together, and planned the escape together. Together they escaped from prison, but were exposed before they could leave the camp.

The fear of being captured and the yearning for freedom made Li Changcheng do something he thought he would never do - he abandoned his teammates.

He heard the sound of Leng Shaokang being caught, the shouts and the sound of fighting. The sound was so close to him at that time, right behind him, as if he was very close. He could even imagine his comrades through the sound

At the scene of being beaten, a voice inside told him that he must go back and that he could not abandon him here.

But a voice deep inside told him that he should not go back.

There is no point in turning back, as it will only lead to them being caught together. If they keep running, at least one of them will be able to escape.

So he didn't look back or stop, but left all that behind.

He escaped, at the cost of betraying his best brother.

"To be honest, if a very nice and enthusiastic young guy hadn't come to me and said that there was a madman who was planning to summon evil gods to destroy the world, and that madman happened to be my buddy or something like that - I didn't really understand it, but he roughly said

It means something similar - if not, I actually don’t want to see you."

Leng Shaokang said bluntly.

Li Changcheng shrugged.

"I think so. I didn't expect to get your forgiveness..."

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Leng Shaokang.

"In my opinion, there is nothing to forgive." Leng Shaokang shook his head, "I don't know what you think. Maybe you think you abandoned me and escaped by betraying your teammates. But you may have

I missed one of the most basic things——

——You didn’t betray me, but I stayed behind voluntarily. When the action was exposed, I knew we couldn’t escape from that base together. At least one of us had to stay, otherwise we both would leave.

No.

So I made a decision in a very short period of time. I would attract the attention of the pursuers, which might create an opportunity for my teammates to escape. Also because I believed that it wouldn’t be long before he would arrive with reinforcements.

Come - and that's exactly what you did.

That was my judgment and my decision. Because of time constraints, I did not discuss it with you or ask for your consent. You saw the opportunity, and then you seized it. In my opinion, this is called teamwork, and we

There should be a tacit understanding.

Besides, let’s talk…”

He paused and smiled at Li Changcheng.

"Strictly speaking, you saved my life - if you didn't come back with anyone, I would have already accounted for it. So even if you really wanted to say that you owed me anything, we would have already been even."

Li Changcheng's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't.

"So you see, you don't owe me anything." Leng Shaokang put away his smile and became serious, and his tone even became a little cold, "I don't forgive you because there is nothing to forgive.

And the reason why I said I don't want to see you is because I am extremely disappointed in you - you gave up on yourself so easily.

I hear what you just said, and I know what you're thinking. You blame humanity itself for the mistakes you think you've made, and you try to eliminate your guilt by convincing yourself that it's human nature to give up and retreat.

Feeling. But deep down, you know what's going on."

Leng Shaokang sighed.

"I can't believe I'm actually telling you this here. You should be the best among us, you should be the pride of all of us." He said in a light and cold voice, "You said that humans are like this

Are there defects in things? Of course there are, too many to count.

Maybe we are indeed so fragile, easily shaken and betrayed, and the beliefs we think are the strongest may be defeated.

Hell, no one knows this better than me. You want to talk about flaws? Sure.”

He patted his mutilated leg again.

"I have to put this thing on every day when I get up - and it's not as relaxing as a massage. I can't hold my daughter, and I have to ask my wife to move a table. Hell, I can't even walk.

I don't understand.

But I got through it and moved on with my life, just like everyone else.

So yes, we are fragile, have countless flaws, sometimes give up, and get knocked down by life. But it is also us who get up after we fall, accept our flaws, and then we move on.

This is us, we are weak, but we also have our own persistence, and we don’t need to be bred or turned into pets of other things to become better.”

Li Changcheng looked sideways at the floor and pondered for a while.

It took him a long while before he spoke.

"As always, always look at the optimistic side, right?" he said.

Leng Shaokang smiled.

"Life is a bastard. If it slaps you, you have to learn to smile."

Li Changcheng laughed twice.

"Okay." His spine relaxed, and he fell into the chair with his whole body, and the shackles rattled as he was pulled, "I know why they came to you, and I know what they want to know...

....Okay, then I’ll just tell you.”

Hearing this, everyone outside the interrogation room pricked up their ears and held their breath waiting for the words he was about to say next.

"That underground ruins were built by believers who surrendered to certain ancient existences in ancient times." Li Changcheng said, "It was once their residence, but later it became their tomb, a tomb that sealed them for countless years.

Find the key corresponding to the seal - which is Exhibit A-086. Open the seal and release those once great things. The project code name is called 'Pleti', and it is also the project you may find in my private server.

.”

"they?"

Siegel outside the door frowned and noticed this word.

"That's right, it's not just Laitos who was sealed under that ruins." Li Changcheng said lightly, "There were originally five ancient beings sealed inside.

Batman only solved one of them, and now you have four more problems."
