Because his head was full of recent events and various doubts that came into view again, coupled with Xue Nai's injury, these things made Evenier feel uneasy.

Even though he had achieved a staged victory, Evenier did not relax because of this. On the contrary, because some things that he did not know before surfaced one by one, Evenier felt more and more that there was a crisis Lurking in the not-too-distant future, this made Evenier feel even more anxious.

So when talking to Shinomi and giving orders, he naturally became serious.

"It's okay, it's okay, don't worry too much," Leipis said in relief, "I just think you look better when you smile."

"Maybe..." Evenier looked away noncommittally, "But I am the captain, and adjusting my state is also part of my mission, which is naturally necessary."

"Okay, let's relax a little bit now and then." Repis changed the subject, "Actually, what I want to know is, do you have a lover?"

"Huh?" Evenier looked strange, "Why do you ask this?"

"Because... I thought you might be more accustomed to such topics at your age?"

"what is this?"

Repis smiled, "After hearing that my lover is a woman, you didn't even show such an expression. Compared with this kind of thing, you seemed to be more surprised by some other things, so ah, I was just guessing, might you be like me... or something."

It is the same?Evenier didn't know if she should say that. Two days ago, she was still a man. How much of her personality and attitude towards love and family affection was inherited from that body is unknown. In this regard, Evenier and Leipis are different.

So facing Repis, Evenier didn't know how to answer.

"I thought you were going to ask me about the tour."

Evenier changed the subject.

"Oh...that's true." Sensing that Evenier was unwilling to continue this question, Leipis immediately made a judgment in her heart, smiled meaningfully, and stopped entangled in that question, and followed Avenier's question. I asked further, "So how are you thinking about the tour?"

"If there is a chance to go to your city, I will."

Facing the question that Repis was looking forward to, Efnir only gave an ambiguous answer.

"I thought we had a chance to meet again," Leipis didn't mind, just smiled, "It seems that your commander originally planned to enter Liujin City to investigate, if that's the case, our city is a good outpost Isn't it?"

"Indeed, if Suzuta City can provide supplies and support, the combat mission will be much easier."

Aveni paused.

"But this matter still needs to be discussed before we can reach a conclusion. As you know, it is too difficult to do that kind of task in the current Xijing City—even if it is just an investigation."

Obviously, the bold plan made by Concubine Masaki before leaving Xijing City is no longer applicable to the current situation. The apostle has shown a fighting power far beyond expectations. Fear hides a powerful angel army, which is undoubtedly a frightening force.

It is absolutely impossible for Xijing City to confront the Apostle Organization head-on.

Evenier never wants to give up on Qinglan and Feiyan, for this reason Avenier has been actively cooperating with Kuo Maji's actions.

But after going back and forth several times, Evenier had to consider other people's positions - people would die in battle, and if Evenier was the only one injured or even died, she would never complain.Qinglan and Feiyan had helped Evenier a lot, and Evenier was willing to take risks for them. Even if there was only a chance, Evenier would want to try that possibility.

But if he took Baiyan, Yanilasi and the others, and even brought Xue Nai into danger, Evenier's will would be shaken.

Besides, Xijing City is too far away from Liujin City, so an expedition is not a good choice.

"This kind of thing should probably be returned to the Central Province."

Efnir said something similar to Maki Kuo yesterday, and now she said it again to Lapis.

"Central province..." Leipis raised her head thoughtfully, looking at the black and smoky sky in the distance, "Since the apostolic organization has chosen to surface now, they probably don't fear the threat of the central province anymore. .”

Evenier lowered his eyes and did not deny it.

To be honest, when did the Apostolic Organization appear and be established, when did it start to expand and develop, and what kind of power did they hold in their hands? These related information are all blank. The Apostolic Organization has not been active on a large scale until recently.

Even the People's Federation knows little about them.

It is precisely because of this that Evenier feels anxious. When the hunter finally chooses to take off his camouflage, he is probably ready to start hunting-this is the ending that Avenier does not want to see.

115. Dialogue

"Evenir in Xijing City, do you think war will come?"

"Do you think war is coming?"

Evenier asked Leipis back.

Repis shook her head, "Of course I don't want to usher in a war. No matter what kind of war it is, we humans don't have enough strength to support a big war of external and internal troubles, but the fact is that it is not the case, isn't it?"

"The war hasn't come yet."

"Maybe it's not far away." Lepis leaned back against the car and looked at the sky. "This is not alarmist talk. The Apostle Organization has become more and more active recently, and they are trying to get into people's sights. From the information we have at this stage, they may really have this strength—if they have the power to overthrow the world, they will definitely not bury their ambitions in the dust."

"Repis, how much do you know about the Apostle Organization?"

"No more than you."

This is not something to hide, it is the truth.Unlike Xijing City, Suzuta City was not invaded by the apostles. Repis's understanding of the apostles was still at the level described in the text and video materials in some search missions issued by the People's Federation. Once confirmed the existence of "Angel" with his own eyes.

It's just that when Repis and the others arrived, the angel had already evacuated from the Sakai Monument attack, and Repis only had a few glances from a distance, so her understanding of the angel was still at the stage of "not knowing much".

This may be because of the "goal" of the apostles in Xijing City, or it may be that Xijing City is far less powerful than Suzuta City, and it may be regarded as a "soft persimmon".

"Lepis, let me ask you a question too," Evenier said slowly, "—why isn't that one of yours in the same team as you?"

In fact, what Lapis cares most about Evenier is the relationship between Leipis and her lover.

Unlike Evenier, a girl who became a monk on the way, Lepis is a real homosexual, and her lover is also one of the agents of Suzuta City, but she is not in the funeral bird team, so she does not appear here.

Repis chuckled, "I said that the funeral bird's mission is too dangerous, and I don't want her to be caught in it. What do you think of this statement?"

"It's understandable, but I also have doubts—should I carry the precious treasure with me, or should I bury it in a hidden place...Lepis, 'safe place', does this kind of thing really exist for our agent?" Avenir lowered her eyelashes, and her eyes fell on the direction she came from, "In other words, if she is out of your sight, wouldn't you feel uneasy about it?"

"Of course," Repis replied frankly, "so I made a promise with her that no one is allowed to die first."

Just as Repis didn't let her lover join the mourning bird squad, Efnir also didn't want Xue Nai to join in this kind of battle.

In this regard, Evenier and Lepis are similar.

"However... I also feel shaken from time to time—is my choice right or wrong? Can she and I reach the day we hope for in our hearts? What if we don't keep our promises? And so on of……"

Evenier was silent about this.

Evenier suddenly felt that Leipis was a suitable chat partner.

Maybe it's because Repis makes her feel familiar in some places, or maybe it's because Repis and Evenier are walking on different paths.

At the same time, they are all hesitating about their choices.

No one has an answer to this kind of thing.

"You asked me so much, do you have a lover?"

Evenier glanced at Leipis, but did not answer.

But such silence was almost like telling Leipis the truth.

"Let me guess...is it Fifina?"

Efnir continued to remain silent, and glanced away.

Looking at Evenier's slightly pursed pink lips, Leipis smiled knowingly, stopped asking, but let out a long sigh, "Should I be happy, or should I be nervous? You said that it would be great if you liked men, so that you will not be a threat to me at all."

"You don't have to worry," Evenier said noncommittally, "Although I won't be tempted by men, I will never betray Xue Nai—besides, you should trust your lover more than anyone else."

"Yeah..." Repis sighed, "But I occasionally think that if I die, then she'd better get happiness from other places, otherwise... I don't even know how to face death."

Efnir frowned, turned her head, "You..."

"Speaking of it," before Evenier could speak, Leipis suddenly moved closer to Evenier, lowered her voice, and bypassed the topic, "Your name is 'Xue Nai'...I remember she is your sister, right? Have you guys been like this since before? Or..."

"I like her not because she's my sister, but because she is her——Okay, Nami Shino is almost here, let's get in the car."

Evenier didn't want to continue this embarrassing topic.

……

------------

The first stop for Evenier and others was the area where a water tower was located.

"Our first task is to investigate this area," Evenier sent a copy of the prepared electronic map to Nami Shino and Rapis, and the other team members also received copies. On the map is Asia The location determined by Nyras through calculations, "—the main search targets are the main buildings in this area and all ICS research-related projects, passages, tunnels, hidden entrances, including this."

Efnir pointed to the towering huge water tower in front of him, which was the only large building in this area mentioned in the previous discussion with Yanilas.

This water tower was built during the wars of the old century, and it was not destroyed by erosion, so it has been preserved. Besides it, there are several small monitoring facilities and experimental facilities in the nearby area, most of which are property under the name of ICS.

"The former Banchuan District has more cooperation with the ICS Research Institute. The commander has obtained the investigation permission of the ICS from the Central Province. This is the underlying key, which can grant you unimpeded authority in the ICS," Avenier will identify The key was sent to Nami Shino and Lepis, "Don't miss any place, investigate carefully."

The on-site command is held by Evnir, Nami Shino is responsible for the support tasks of special operations forces and engineering forces, and Repis is mainly responsible for support and coordination tasks in combat.

Then Evenier sent another identification code to Shino Mi Nami.

"Nami, you are in charge of the intelligence link with the Muse team. Once they have any new discoveries, let me know immediately, and at the same time coordinate the engineering team to cooperate. Be sure to complete the search work in the entire area before tonight."

"If an enemy appears during the search, he will be killed on the spot. If the enemy is difficult to deal with, please call for help as soon as possible, and our operatives will go there immediately."

"Safety of life is the priority."

"Okay, let's go."

116、Conflict

There was a period of instability at the end of the Old Age.

As the phenomenon of white hole erosion becomes more frequent and dangerous, a series of incidents that were once concealed by the "Organization of Order" gradually moved from the dark to the surface, and more and more erosion-related incidents were witnessed by ordinary people.

Therefore, large and small wars have also occurred.

Against this background, countries at the end of the old generation have more or less carried out a series of war preparations, and many areas have been affected by turmoil. The huge water tower in front of them is one of the products of that time.

"The water tower was built during the war, but is the scale of this water tower a bit too exaggerated for the former Sakakawa garrison?"

Repis looked at the water tower from top to bottom, but still didn't see anything strange.

It's just a water tower, but Evenier inexplicably showed "caution"-Evenier transferred the soldiers and engineers of the special forces such as Nami Shino to other places, and only the water tower specially dispatched agents The human team went to check.

In other words, Evenier thinks there may be something in the water tower.

As for the specifics, Evenier did not say clearly.

"However, there's nothing special about it from the outside. Avenir from Xijing City, why do you always stare at it?"

Repis stood beside Evenier, and the rest of her subordinates had joined the investigation team, carrying out the investigation mission with Nami Shino and the main sequence star team.

"Is there anything strange about this thing?"

Repis looked at Evenier, just in time to meet Avenier's eyes.

Evenier's right eye is unique, and it has to be said, it is very beautiful.But as long as you have a little knowledge of Evenier's information, you will know that Evenier's right eye was injured by an angel more than a month ago, causing its residue to become blind.

So this beautiful blue-purple is not very flattering.

Such "scars" are nothing unusual for the agent. Although the symptoms of Evenier's right eye are somewhat different from the usual residues, there is nothing to be curious about.They are all agents, and it is normal to leave some indelible injuries when fighting against the erosive body. Just like Triris, she even has incomplete heart and lung lobes, which are much more serious than the injuries received by Avenier.

——Of course, the above are all wrong judgments of most people, including Lapis.

In fact, not many people know about the abnormal recovery of Evenier's right eye and the subsequent strange phenomenon. This is also the request of Yuki Xiqi and Princess Masaki.

Evenier couldn't explain to others that she could see the phenomenon of "dust" in her right eye. When the apostles were lurking at the time, instead of making Evenier's specialness the next unsolved mystery and backing it up in the database, it is better to hide it and study it secretly while planting an unknown special hole card for Avenir.

Facts have proved that the decision at the time was correct, and the right eye did bring Avenir a lot of help.

"I have no idea,"

Evenier turned around and put on the magic crystal, the purple awn in his right eye was hidden under the lens.

In fact, Evenier dispatched Shinomi Nami and others separately from the agent team because Evenier saw "dust" from the water tower.

There is nothing wrong with the geographical location, this is the ground directly above the underground space.

But it's not easy for Evenier to explain to Leipis about the "dust".

"Maybe it's just intuition... Wait a little longer, I think there must be something to be found in it, Aisha and the others will definitely find something, I will observe for a while before that."

It is said to be observing outside, but it is actually to prevent special situations from happening.

Avnir stays in a place that is easy to move and has a wide view, so she can command well, and secondly, because she can predict the occurrence of some things through "dust", Avnil is used to acting cautiously before everything becomes clear.
