The clouds were too thick, rolling and surging at the top of the sky, occasionally rubbing against each other and making loud thunderous sounds, but no one had ever seen even a single flash of lightning break through the sky and illuminate this dark and silent world.

The stubborn sunlight squeezed through the thin gaps in the clouds, sprinkling a tiny bit of warmth that belonged to life on the cold and silent earth, which seemed to have been completely deprived.

There are still changes.

Lin Wei stood on the top of a tall building, overlooking the dilapidated and silent city.

The seawater has begun to flood back, and some low-lying neighborhoods have become swamps.

Lin Wei clearly saw that in the river that should have been called a "block", he could occasionally see a few Honkai beasts or dead soldiers walking with difficulty in the water. Some skinny dead soldiers could not even withstand the erosion of the water, and were directly washed away if they could not stand steadily, and no one knew where they were taken by the whirlpool.

Although the flooded area is still some distance away from here, this once prosperous city has indeed entered a state of death.

"Brother Lin Wei, what are you looking at?"

A girl with short lavender hair came over from behind, carefully avoiding the scattered debris on the slippery ground.

Perhaps because of the backflow of seawater, the humidity in the air has become much higher. The outer walls, rooftops, corridor corners and various places are covered with slippery moss, making this place look increasingly dilapidated and decadent, but also faintly exuding a strange and vigorous vitality.

"Xiaokong, it's you. Be careful. Walk slowly and don't fall."

Lin Wei jumped down from the wall, walked quickly to Xiao Kong's side, and helped the girl who had nearly slipped.

"This place is nice, it's on a high floor, the view is wide, and the wind isn't too strong. I was thinking, if we clean this place up and use it as an observation deck for you and your brothers and sisters to look out into the distance, it would be nice."

Lin Wei laughed and pointed at the thin sunlight that sprinkled on the girl, ruffling her smooth short hair.

"And it's better for children to get some sun exposure."

"I'm not a child anymore..."

Xiaokong muttered softly and fiddled with his messy hair, remembering why he came here;

"The teacher is going out to buy daily necessities for the next week and asked if we need anything. I thought you were out at the moment, so I came to ask if you needed anything similar."

Lin Wei felt warm in her heart and rubbed Xiao Kong's hair again, messing up the hair she had just straightened.

"I just found something useful. Let's go back together."

Lin Wei turned his head to take one last look at the direction that had caused him to ponder, picked up a bulging package from the ground, and took the little girl away.

Almost a month has passed since I returned to Changkong City with Raven.

The past month's life has been very fulfilling for Lin Wei, and can be described in two words: "scavenging."

(ノへ ̄,)

There's no way, the shelter built by Raven is completely lacking in everything.

Moreover, isn't it reasonable to make a living as a scavenger in a real wasteland like Changkong City?

At least Lin Wei thought it was reasonable, so he told this story to Raven.

So, just after he landed, before Lin Wei had even stood firmly, Raven assigned him the task of collecting supplies for the shelter, and asked him to scavenge as much as he could.

That makes more sense.

So Lin Wei quickly collected a lot of different toys from the nearby shopping mall and brought them back, and quickly got along well with the group of kids under Raven's speechless eyes.

How fast?

Lin Wei arrived at the shelter in the morning, and Xiaokong started calling him "brother" at noon.

There are many children like Xiaokong who show closeness to Lin Wei.

After all, there were gifts, and Lin Wei's image and temperament were quite likable to these children, which made the "ice-breaking" of the first meeting go on extremely quickly.

Some children have rather twisted tempers, like a little boy with beige hair and a bad temper named Lyle.

This little guy, as one of the few boys in the camp, was quite trusted and valued by his brothers and sisters. However, Lin Wei stole all his limelight as soon as he appeared. With his vanity frustrated, little Lyle originally planned to give Lin Wei a cold shoulder for a few days to vent his anger, and then forgive him generously.

But Lin Wei is a man without martial ethics and never plays by the rules.

This guy found a whole set of firearms models from somewhere, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, rifles, and pistols, all of which were exquisitely made and of high quality. Lin Wei even found a room to hang a wall full of them, imitating the image of a gun store in a movie.

When that day, Lin Wei, with a mysterious look on his face, pulled the proud and reluctant little Lyle into this carefully arranged "trap", the poor little guy naturally hugged Lin Wei's thigh and started calling him brother.

Lin Wei looked at little Lyle with shining eyes and sneered in his heart, "Isn't it possible for that little guy to cure you?"

( ̄_, ̄)

I can only say that children’s preferences are actually very simple.

"…I say, isn't it a bit too much to bully a child like this?"

The protective crow couldn't stand it anymore and came to cause trouble for Lin Wei.

"Bullying? How could that be?"

Lin Wei took down a sniper rifle model that looked very heavy. After helping Lyle install the scope, the little guy ran out excitedly holding the toy, wanting to find a place to play the sniper he had longed to play for a long time. A clear child's voice came from afar.

"Thank you, Brother Lin Wei!"

Lin Wei shrugged, "Look..."

The raven snorted and ignored the despicable man.

She was not worried that Lyle would run too far and get into danger.

Raven understands every child here. He knows that even though that child may seem unsociable on the surface, he actually knows his limits and will not cause trouble for others.

And Xiaokong had just followed, so there would be no accidents.

"Don't look at me like that. I can't cook, so I have to find another way to get closer to these kids."

In response to Raven's inexplicable scrutiny, Lin Wei naturally defended his behavior.

Cooking? Raven was a little confused. What does this have to do with cooking?

This strange thought just flashed through my mind and I no longer paid attention to it.

Because Raven could see that Lin Wei really had no ill will towards these children, she stopped asking any more questions.

After all, they will be living together for a while, so it’s never a bad thing to have a more harmonious relationship.

In this way, Lin Wei, as an adult who landed in the "nest", quickly gained the acceptance and recognition of the children.

In addition, he himself is also a resident of Changkong City, and like these children, he is a survivor of the third collapse, which makes it easier for him to integrate into this big family.

While walking from the rooftop of a high-rise building to the shelter holding the skinny Xiaokong, Lin Wei recalled this interesting experience and couldn't help but smile.

It’s really interesting. I didn’t expect that I would have the opportunity to interact with children again.

"Brother Lin Wei, what makes you so happy?"

Xiao Kong was meticulous and observant, and he could sense Lin Wei's joy and happiness at the moment.

Pointing at the bulging package in Lin Wei's other hand, he asked curiously,

"Is it because of the collected supplies?"

"Oh? Um... yes, they are very important supplies. I'm very happy to find them."

Lin Wei thought about it and said with a smile.

There is no need to talk about these dirty calculations of adults with innocent children.

"Then...can I ask what the important thing is?"

Xiao Kong's curiosity was aroused, because every time Lin Wei came back from an outing, he would always bring some interesting things as a surprise. His arrival made the atmosphere of life in the entire camp more relaxed and lively.

"Oh, I just found a tutoring school in that building and found some stuff like video lessons, textbooks, and practice questions."

Lin Wei's mouth suddenly curled up into a devilish smile, which was extremely hateful.

"Education is the top priority. I think the children in the shelter should also strengthen their studies, so I brought them all back."

"what?"

Xiao Kong simply couldn't do it anymore, his mouth opened, looking a little dazed.

Thus, in a small shelter in an inconspicuous corner of the dilapidated Changkong City, another day full of the flavor of life passed.

………………

On the other side of the earth, the headquarters of Destiny, the floating island, and the base of the Undying Blade team.

Although it is called a squad, as a Valkyrie rapid reaction force directly under the headquarters, it is well beyond the scope of a "squad". Not only does it have various squads of varying sizes, it also has its own exclusive battlefield intelligence analysis and logistics support teams, all of which are staffed by elite Valkyries.

It is the essence.

At least when the team members are chatting, they usually encourage each other in this way and comfort themselves.

"Wow... They are all excellent Valkyries, but why..."

Alvette bit the straw and her complaints became quieter and quieter.

"Why do the captain and vice-captain always act alone?"

Lord Orlandel has been gone for over a month, working tirelessly and alone to carry out the mission of suppressing global collapse.

Except for Vice Captain Rita who was also out on another important mission, the entire Immortal Blade seemed to be on holiday with nothing to do.

"Perhaps this is the S-rank Valkyrie? Bringing us along would affect the efficiency of the operation..."

The team members sitting with her were also listless and looked very frustrated.

Everyone is filled with guilt, thinking that they are so useless!

It's lunch time now, and everyone has come to the lounge to kill time.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A dull collision sound came from the training room in the distance, and it was obvious that someone was doing high-intensity confrontation training inside.

Several Valkyries looked at each other, somewhat bewildered. Didn't they all agree to start fighting together with their hearts broken?

Who is this and why is he so hardworking?

Secretly rolling, right?

That’s too much!

"Don't let your imagination run wild. It's that special team member." Alvette bit her straw and explained to everyone, "The captain and vice-captain are not here. According to the rules, a C-rank Valkyrie like her should be sent to the Valkyrie School or the headquarters training base."

Alvette was somewhat helpless. As a Valkyrie specializing in intelligence, she was well-informed.

“But they were all rejected…”

All the Valkyries looked at each other helplessly. It was too reasonable.

Indeed, the Immortal Blade base, where elites gather, is the best place to "guard" her.

Although it is impolite to say this, after all, she is also my colleague, junior, and companion.

But her power... after all, is in danger of getting out of control.

In fact, the team members did not dislike Yuno. They even sympathized with her situation and admired her strength, but they always felt that she was a little difficult to approach.

She looks delicate and frail, and when she smiles she seems gentle and shy, but when she gets crazy...

Every time everyone thought of her crazy and brutal fighting style, they couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Can't afford to provoke, can afford to hide...

Fortunately, Yuno knew that she was not very popular, so she took the initiative to not communicate with other Valkyries. Now that the two captains were away, she locked herself in the training room and trained, trained, and trained day and night in a crazy and self-torturing way.

Only her special self-healing physique could withstand such a degree of destruction.

“Thump, thump, thump”…

A burst of brisk footsteps came closer and closer. The girls looked up and saw a girl with long chestnut hair running towards them with a very happy smile. The Valkyrie uniform on her body was slightly different from that of the Immortal Blade members present, and it was obvious that she belonged to another organization.

"Hello everyone! There was no one here all the way here, so I guessed that you were all in the lounge, so I came straight here!"

The girl giggled and stretched out her hand to greet everyone. Then she saw an empty seat next to Alvette. After asking and making sure that there was no one in that seat, she naturally came over and sat down next to her, not treating herself as an outsider at all.

"Anna, long time no see. How come you have time to come here today? Unfortunately, the captain is currently on a mission outside."

Alvette greeted the girl and seemed very familiar with her.

Anna Shaniyate, a descendant of the old Shaniyate family, is gifted and has been training as a Valkyrie since she was a child. Although she is not a member of the Undying Blade, everyone is familiar with her.

Although it sounds strange, after all, everyone is based on this sky island. We see each other every day, and we will become familiar with each other over time.

"Huh? That's it..."

Anna was a little disappointed when she heard that Yulandel was not there.
