Rumor has it that this black liquid is usually sealed in icy aluminum metal, and its chill can spread like an icicle through human blood vessels, but you humans regard it as a benefit, able to adjust your mood and relieve fatigue.

"..."

Do you weirdos like to use a bunch of weird terms to describe a common thing?

Shen Qiyin thought for a moment, then her eyes darkened, revealing an expression that said, "Are you kidding me?" She questioned, "Is this thing you're talking about Coke?"

"Cola?" Melodya pondered seriously, muttering to herself, "So, 'Cola', just by the name, is indeed a mysterious item that can make humans happy."

"It's okay. I drink a can when I'm thirsty and tired, especially in the hot summer when my mouth is dry. I spend 3 yuan to buy a can of ice cola, and the first sip is worth 2.5 yuan. Come to think of it, I haven't had it for a long time. I really miss it..."

"You actually give such high praise to this thing. It seems to be worth my anticipation."

"These are all minor matters. The problem is that physical matter can't exist in this place, right? How am I supposed to bring you the Coke?"

"Don't worry. Once you find the object of your mission, you can call me through the key to the 'resting room'. I will then answer your call and come to you."

"..."

It's coming, just like an angel...

The girl spoke so seriously and mysteriously, but the commission she requested was just a can of Coke. It was too abstract.

Well, abstract as it is, it is not an easy thing to find a can of Coke in today's world. I am afraid that except for those cities that have not fallen and the strongholds of survivors, it is difficult to see such supplies in the no-man's land.

If you really can’t find it, you can try to collect the raw materials and make it yourself?

Even if the taste is not good, you can still let the laptop help upgrade it, which should be enough to fool people.

"It's almost time."

Melodya raised her head and looked at the ceiling of the lounge, as if through this illusory wall she could gain insight into a world that did not belong to the gap between spirit and reality.

"It's been quite a while in the outside world, and you've spent enough time in the rest room. It's time to return to reality."

"finally......"

Shen Qiyin sighed, and murmured with some melancholy and worry: "I hope it won't be a day in heaven and a year on earth. If I don't wake up soon, I'm afraid that this family will be broken up without me."

"Indeed." Melodia regained her signature smile.

She placed her hands on the table, crossed her fingers, and gazed at Shen Qiyin with a faint smile: "Well, this meeting ends here. I hope the next meeting can come as soon as possible, Qiyin."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the rest room opened.

A dazzling white light appeared behind the door. Shen Qiyin cast her gaze on the door. The white light grew larger and brighter in her sight until it completely covered her field of vision...

......

In the Gyeonggi region, inside the front-line command post.

Li Huaiyuan, the former commander-in-chief of the Huaibei Provincial Military Region and the commander-in-chief of the defense line against the Kuroshio Tide, was standing quietly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with his hands behind his back.

Outside the window, there is an endless plain. The long-lost sunlight shines from the sky, coating the withered wild grass with a layer of flowing gold foil.

The wind blew along the ground, lifting up layers of grass waves and revealing the dark red soil underneath. From a distance, it looked like a wound on the earth that had just scabbed over.

A gully washed out by rain crossed the view, and the bones of some animal were scattered at the bottom of the gully, shining coldly like porcelain in the sunlight.

This is the adjacent area outside the capital Jingzhou City.

The Kuroshio Current has not yet spread to this place, so you can still enjoy this tranquility during the day.

Li Huaiyuan felt that he had not seen such a peaceful afternoon for many years.

Feeling the warmth brought by the winter sun, he also wanted to take advantage of this rare quiet time to have a good sleep.

But he can't.

He returned to his desk, picked up the newly developed landline phone that integrated the White Flame II technology, and dialed a number.

“Beep, beep—”

"This is the 7th Squad of the Special Investigation Team of the Central Third Military Region..."

Before the other end of the phone could finish speaking, Li Huaiyuan rudely interrupted the other party: "I am Li Huaiyuan, Qin Feng, what's the situation?"

"Yes! Commander Li, we've been searching for half a month, almost turning the entire mountain upside down, but we still haven't found any trace of the Black Tide clone. Even at night, that thing never shows up.

I think it's time to determine the nature of the Black Tide clone that attacked Huaibei Province. It must have been destroyed by an unknown force."

"How's the on-site investigation going?"

"Since the last report, we have not found any new clues..."

There was a pause on the other end of the phone before the man continued, "Judging from the traces on the battlefield, an explosion no less powerful than a small nuclear bomb erupted in the forest outside Huanglin City, destroying an area several kilometers in radius. Strangely, after we surveyed the scene, we didn't find any corresponding chemical elements.

Commander Li, do you understand what I mean? This explosion wasn't caused by explosives or traditional chemical reactions, but rather a mass of energy that's difficult to trace and analyze.

This powerful energy appeared out of nowhere and exploded out of nowhere. The Black Tide clone, which had already become an alien species, must have died in the explosion.

However, only a qualified individual could accomplish this. We are planning to begin by tracking this mysterious qualified individual. If we can find him and gain his assistance, then we can hopefully completely eliminate the remaining clone and the Black Tide itself."

"..."

When the other party talked about the hope of eliminating the Kuroshio Tide, his tone was quite expectant and cheerful.

But when Li Huaiyuan heard this, he couldn't laugh at all. He even clenched his fists unconsciously, and the veins on his skin were exposed.

Because he knew very well that in order to destroy this clone, they paid too heavy a price...

"Understood. If there are any new developments, please let me know at any time. If you encounter any obstacles or troubles, you can tell me your name."

"Yes, Commander Li, we will definitely find a way to track down the qualified person who caused the explosion!"

After the call ended, Li Huaiyuan put down the phone and sat down on the chair with a tired look on his face.

Suddenly, the temperature in the room dropped sharply as if it had lost balance. An extremely cold chill pierced into Li Huaiyuan's body like an ice cone, spreading along his blood vessels and throughout his body.

After a while, he opened his eyes and looked towards the corner of the room.

In the shadows, it seemed as if something was wandering and wriggling.

"The method you provided is correct. This has been verified. One of Kuroshio's clones was successfully eliminated."

"But this doesn't mean I will follow your instructions. Don't forget, we are just in a cooperative and coexisting relationship."

"I don't trust you, and you don't trust me. This is the consensus between us."

"I will follow our agreement and let these virus-like humans go where they should go..."

Li Huaiyuan murmured truthfully, as if he was talking to something.

But in the room, apart from him, there was no one else...

……

As the white light gradually faded, Shen Qinyin slowly opened her eyes.

The air is filled with the sweet fragrance of gardenia, which is refreshing, makes people feel relaxed and happy, and relax unconsciously.

Shen Qiyin stared at the "ceiling" so close above her head and recognized at a glance that it was the berth in the rest room inside the Titan.

"Qiyin! Qiyin, are you awake?!"

"You finally woke up! Thank God, thank God!"

"How are you feeling? Are you still feeling unwell?"

Tang Miao and Lin Qiutang seemed to be always by his side. When they noticed that he had woken up, they immediately came up to him and asked him with great concern.

Shen Qiyin stretched out her hand tentatively, shook it twice in the air, then climbed up to Tang Miao's fair face and gently pinched the soft flesh on her cheek.

"Ouch! It hurts!" Tang Miao stared in pain, "What are you doing?!"

"I'm trying to figure out if I'm dreaming."

"If you want to judge whether you are dreaming, you should pinch your own face. What's the point of pinching me?"

Tang Miao was about to reach out and "fight back" when she spoke, but Lin Qiutang was quick to grab her wrist and smiled to smooth things over for Shen Qiyin:

"Okay, okay, this girl can still joke with us, so she must be fine. After worrying for so long, I can finally put my mind at ease."

"Humph, if I had known she would bully me as soon as she woke up, I wouldn't have worried."

Tang Miao curled her lips in annoyance, but this girl never could hide her thoughts. She was only angry for three seconds before she smiled again and hugged Shen Qiyin tightly with tears in her eyes.

"You idiot, you did something dangerous again! Do you know how long you were unconscious? A full half month! We almost thought you would never wake up!!"

Shen Qiyin patted the other person's back and teased, "Be good, I'm fine, right? Good luck will come to those who are lucky. I won't die that easily."

"Go to hell, don't do such risky things again in the future. Even if you do, don't do it without even telling me, okay?"

"I'm sorry, there was nothing I could do under the circumstances..."

"Anyway, anyway, it's good that you woke up..."

Tang Miao hugged Shen Qinyin and cried continuously. It took a long time for her to calm down.

After everyone calmed down, Shen Qiyin immediately began to ask the question that concerned her most:

"Since we're all still alive, the Black Tide clone should have been destroyed, right? You just said I was in a coma for half a month, so what's the situation now? Where are we?"

Lin Qiutang gently rubbed her head and comforted her, "Don't get excited, Qiyin, take a break and eat something. We'll talk after Xiaoxiang and Kana come back from patrol."

"All right……"

Although Shen Qiyin was very eager to know the current situation, Lin Qiutang was right. She had not eaten anything for half a month. It was a miracle that she was still alive. What she needed to do now was to take good care of her body and recover quickly.

She straightened up and was about to use her telekinesis to float off the bed, when a special black gem that looked like an eyeball fell out of her arms.

"This is what Mona picked up for you." Tang Miao said quickly, "We're still not sure what this thing does. Sister Qiutang and I tried it, and just holding it almost made us idiots!

If Kana hadn't reacted quickly, I'm afraid we would have died first...

But this thing doesn't seem to have any effect on you?"

"Did Mona pick it up..."

Shen Qiyin held the gem and guessed that this thing might be dropped by the Black Tide clone, an item similar to the Fear Core Crystal.

She tried to use her notebook to make a judgment, and soon the notebook gave the answer -

[Do you want to convert the "Crystal of Black Tide Resentment" into 5000 Desire Stones?]

[Because of the "Pope" bonus, you can get an additional 2000 Desire Stones when converting.]

So fun!!

This thing is worth 7000 Desire Stones?!

Shen Qinyin was delighted, but when she thought that this was dropped from Hei Chao's clone, she felt that it was nothing.

Such a formidable thing is only worth 5000 after being killed? I'd rather kill 10 Rain Girls than one Black Tide clone!

But then again, why did the Black Tide clone drop crystals this time? It clearly didn't drop anything the last time in Yunlan City.

Is it because the clone was killed by the Lurker that time, so there is no one?

In addition, "Crystal of Resentment"...

Shen Qiyin suddenly remembered the deal proposed by the old gentleman before.

He said he would find what he needed...

Could it be this thing?

Chapter 150 The Death of Hundreds of Thousands of People!!

The more Shen Qiyin thought about it, the more she felt that this was a possibility, which made her feel troubled.

If I give this thing to that old gentleman, it should be able to increase the level of Arcana Moon's bond, thereby further strengthening my spiritual abilities.

But handing it over to him would mean that Shen Qinyin would have to give up 7000 desire stones at once.

Now that she had just experienced a great battle, she had very few desire stones left and was in urgent need of resources.

What choice should I make...

Ugh.

Shen Qiyin sighed silently in her heart and decided to temporarily collect the crystal of resentment dropped by the Black Tide clone.

This thing cannot be absorbed by Lin Qiutang and others. People with ordinary qualifications like them are simply unable to resist the cognitive pollution caused by this thing.

Just like the crystals dropped by the Lurker, high-level "creatures" like the Black Tide and the Lurker, even the crystals left behind are not within the reach of ordinary people.
