Chapter 378 83. Dark Zone Stalker: Escape from Van Lenkov
A bolide fell from the dome, and Furana drove the spaceship down rapidly, followed by staggered anti-aircraft fire, and just passed by the sky above the Modelo Building, Li Oz grabbed Nikita's shoulder, Directly activate the space-time ripples and jump onto the spaceship.

"—I'm stupid!"

As soon as Nikita's feet landed on the aisle of the spaceship, he was pulled to the ground by the overload in an instant. Li Oz grabbed it casually, and the gravitational field opened up, putting him in a state of suspension and weightlessness, and he recovered.

"Go through the Ordu star gate and go directly to Fire Wolf, they won't be able to catch up with you."

"I said employer, this has exceeded the service content!"

Fulana pulled up the nose of the plane to the limit and rushed straight towards the atmosphere. The lasers and missiles behind her chased after each other, making her unable to help but complain.

"Add money to you."

"Good boss."

Li Aoz didn't talk nonsense, asked Nikita to put down the hostage, and immediately jumped out with the hostage. The high-level aircraft driven by Furlana was simply not something that these mercenaries could catch up with, so he didn't need to worry.

Before Nikita regained his composure, he was dragged into the ripples of time and space by Li Oz. In a blink of an eye, he faced the whole city and began to fall freely.

"I caress, I care, I care!"

Nikita shouted hastily:

"Look at what you're teleporting there!?"

"Don't panic, you won't fall to your death."

As soon as Li Aoz finished speaking, a fighter plane flew over their heads. Thanks to Fulana's attraction of hatred, the pilot didn't notice them at all.

Under the gravitational force, Li Aoz took the shivering Nikita to the ground from a height of several thousand meters smoothly, without even splashing a speck of dust. Nikita's feet had just touched the ground, and he almost collapsed every time. Since his body had just escaped from the weightless environment, the plasma all over his body seemed to be squeezed out from the soles of his feet.

Fortunately, he was also a Zeta-level warrior when he was young. Although poverty and aging have broken his body, his quality is still much better than ordinary people, so he will not just get down.

"Thank you for running with me, Nikita."

Li Aoz patted the veteran on the shoulder, and transferred 3000 gold to him.

Nikita wanted to scold the kid for killing people, but the news of the money transfer obediently shut him up.

"I'll go to Julian. It won't be peaceful for a while, so be careful."

After Li Aoz finished speaking, he thought about it, and then said:
"Do you want to leave here? I am afraid that Van Lenkov will become very 'lively' in the future..."

"I'm not leaving."

Nikita smiled wryly twice:

"You have also seen the situation of my daughter. In her state, she can't stand the toss of space travel. Thank you for your kindness, Lioz."

It's just a rhetoric.

Li Oz knew that Nikita was very attached to his motherland and was reluctant to leave.Elderly people all over the universe are like this. The older they get, the more they want to return to the place of birth. This may be a kind of hometown complex that is inherent in life.

Of course, the more important fact is that Nikita can't afford to live in a narrative-level civilization and treat illnesses.

Three thousand ammonium gold is not much, but Nikita's eyes suddenly lit up with hope.

Although he knew that Van Lenkoff's ending could not be changed, for some reason, Li Oz had some ideas of his own.

Perhaps, it was because of the White Wolf ending of "Remember It" that was settled not long ago, which made Li Ozi feel a little bit uneasy.

He wouldn't say what would happen to him if he could do it all over again, it's unrealistic.

There is no medicine for regret in the world. For Li Aoz, this is not a game, and he has no chance to start over.

Now, I have almost finished the task, and the most important reward has been taken away, so I should be able to leave.

Li Aoz stood there, under the purple sky, his headless body didn't know where to look.

He killed the leader of this group of people, and he will pour dirty water again to tarnish his image.

However, Kalmetz is not dead, the country will only get worse.

Even the best angel ending can only save 30 people.

Frankly speaking, Li Aoz is not related to this group of people, and there are no acquaintances or friends of his here.

But at this moment, he suddenly had a strong doubt.

【Should I go? 】

If he wants to leave, no one can stop him, and he will be promoted to the Delta class immediately. As a [Star Resonator], he holds two sequential arcane powers in his hand, and the blood demon is so successful that even the Zeta class can't kill him he.

"Nikita, I want to ask you a question." Li Oz said suddenly.

"Do you have any money?" Nikita quickly stretched out his hand and rubbed his fingers, implying something frantically.

"see your performance."

"As long as you are willing to give me ammonium gold, I can do anything."

Nikita says:

"what do you wish to ask?"

"If, I mean, if." Li Aoz pondered for a while, and continued: "If you have better strength and foresight than others, and there is exactly one thing, you have the ability to make its ending It's better, but you can't quite fix it—would you still do it?"

"Uh, this question, let me think about it-does this matter have anything to do with your family?"

"No. I'm afraid people here will still hate me."

"Do you need to do this to get some sort of achievement? Fame, status, or money?"

"Probably lose money."

"Then are you a man of conscience and morals?"

"It can't be counted. My bottom line is relatively low and I am relatively flexible."

"Then I'm curious, why do you still think so?"

"I do not know."

Li Aoz lightly tapped his chest, and replied:
"But I always feel bad. I have the ability to change something and it makes me feel bad not to do it."

He didn't know where his head was, but a strong whim rushed into his heart.

【Um?Did you forget to take the truth medicine today?No wonder it feels so weird. 】

Li Aoz was stunned.

He acted so fast that the interstellar jet lag did not reverse, and he forgot to take his medicine.

Nikita looked at Li Aoz, thought for a moment, seemed to understand something, and patted the headless man on the shoulder:

"It looks like you're a little lost, so let me take you somewhere."

Li Aoz was just about to take the medicine and feed it to his head in the distorted space-time, when he saw what Nikita said, he hesitated a little.

………………

Half an hour later, Li Oz and Nikita boarded a hill.They walked all the way, climbing up on the soft soil and vegetation, the lavender sky gradually fell, and a fragmented cloud cluster appeared in the far east, and the gray sky covered the stars for a while.

Li Aoz looked around with his head down:
"It just looks like an ordinary hill."

"Of course, this is just an ordinary hill."

Nikita walked to the edge of the cliff and sat down with a low body. The cold wind was blowing in his face. He called Li Aoz to sit side by side, then took out the water bottle from his arms, took a sip, and looked at the distant horizon.

Afterwards, neither of them spoke, just sat quietly for a while, with the evening breeze blowing, and they didn't know where they were looking.

"Van Lenkoff is a fighting nation, or rather, forced to be a fighting nation."

Nikita was the first to break the silence:

"I was born in the military camp. My mother was a chaplain. When I was young, I never met my father. They said he was a good soldier and a great hero. I never understood that a pair of mothers What kind of a hero is a stinky man who doesn’t care about it.”

"Then when I was six years old, his body came back, wrapped in Van Lenkoff's trident and skull flag, and also brought back two children of different races."

"Those two children were orphans of his comrades-in-arms, and both their parents died on the front line. When the battle was the most difficult, he insisted on using his salary to support the children of his comrades-in-arms and brought them back to their hometown."

"When someone asks a father, 'You still have your own children, why don't you send more money to your family and have to support these two oil bottles yourself? You shouldn't waste money on children who are not your own. body.', at this time, my father would always say to others: "

"'It's not about whether I should, I can do it, so I do it.'"

"My father has won many wars, but most of the time he appeared as an invader and a butcher. Only this time they didn't make any achievements in battle, but they brought back a more precious honor than a medal—life."

Nikita lit a cigarette, and subconsciously handed one to Li Aoz, who waved his hand:

"I quit smoking a long time ago, not to mention I can't smoke anymore."

"Tobacco and alcohol are not good things, but people have to find some spiritual sustenance and narcotics."

Nikita took a drag on his cigarette, exhaled the smoke ring, and continued:
"I am also like other Van Lenkoff aliens. I have been training in fighting, operating weapons, and tactical coordination since I was a child. Because of my father's deeds, I have also attracted attention, so I have trained harder than anyone since I was a child."

"Among my peers, I was the first to complete a near-orbital assault, the first to have biochemical limbs implanted, the first to become an extraordinary person, and the first to become a fleet commander—I was so good that I could be recognized by the principal." It seems that he betrothed his daughter to me, how lucky we are in love and happiness, and soon we will have the crystallization of love."

Nikita recalled the past days, especially when talking about his wife and marriage, he suddenly became a few decades younger, as if he suddenly became a young and strong young man.

"Actually, I don't like fighting, and I don't like being No.1. But it's not whether I should do it, but whether I can do it-my father's motto always inspires me to move forward. "

"It's not that I want to be the first, but that I can be the first, so I do it."

Li Aoz laughed.

"You have a very special father."

Nikita flicked Mars off the cigarette, and continued:
"I have a very good friend who begged me to give up my training spot because it was really important to him and he needed that spot to be a commando so he could get triple the salary to support him. Mother's surgery."

"His tears and emotions made me so soft - so I simply turned him down."

"I know that the mission of the commando is very dangerous and the death rate is extremely high. He doesn't have the ability to survive until the day when he is paid. In the end, his mother can only get a death notice with a pension."

"So, I lost my best friend."
