"Powerful capabilities are like a nuclear reactor that can provide tremendous energy. But at the same time, if it is not handled properly, there will be a devastating explosion. " Instructor Kalio pointed to himself and said, "Me, or Valkyrie, and those other so-called high-ranked espers. In fact, we are all nuclear reactors that can move. If we don"t control them properly, not only will we destroy them, we will also lose ourselves. "
"Then you guys …"
Zero was like a kid who was anxious to know the answer, but Carrion seemed to know what he wanted to ask. He grinned and said, "It"s faith! Everyone"s beliefs may be different, but there is no doubt that faith acts as a support, a restraint. He wanted to prevent his power from going out of control and ultimately destroy others as well as himself. As a matter of fact, every high level powerhouse had the faith to be tyrannical enough to rule over everything and carry out their own life. It is also because we have faith that we are able to call ourselves humans. Even if our bodies have undergone some changes, they will not become monsters. "
Clapping his b.u.t.t and standing up, he unb.u.t.toned his uniform jacket, took off his right sleeve, and removed his instructor"s gloves. As a result, a steel arm with a metallic l.u.s.ter and a vascular energy slot appeared in Zero"s eyes.
"This is …"
"Mercenary of Hundred Fights, Third Form. The mechanical prosthetic limbs developed by the Heroic Spirit Hall for disabled soldiers … " "In the war thirty years ago, I lost my right hand and put something like that on it," he said. Therefore, I am far from being a normal person. But I never thought of myself as a monster. I smoked, I drank, I loved beautiful women. All of this is no different from the previous me, I, am Kalio! "
In the short old man"s body, he could clearly feel the firm conviction in Kalio"s heart. As he said, every strong man has the faith to be above all things, and to carry it out throughout his life. His conviction was that he recognized himself, that he had never doubted himself. Even if he was as powerful as a monster, even if he had mechanical prosthetic limbs, even if he was no longer a normal human.
However, he was still Kalio!
Gritting his teeth, he suppressed the resistance of his body with his willpower and sat up from the ground. Then, he slowly straightened his body and said, "Thank you, Instructor Kalio." You taught me a precious lesson. Even at the end of my life, I won"t forget what you said to me tonight. "
Caelio put on his military uniform and blew out smoke from his mouth. "It"s useless to flatter me. Rest early if you have nothing to do. Tomorrow"s drills, I"ll get you out of your eggs."
Zero smiled and did not say anything else. He turned around and left. But in his eyes, there was no longer that perplexity. There was a flash of faith.
No matter what had happened to me in the past, what would happen to the future. I am zero, I want to live like a human being!
This was the faith of zero.
The temperature is minus 38 degrees Celsius, a typical climate in the wilderness. It was hot during the day and cold at night, just like the desert regions of the old era. What"s different is that in the new era of daylight, intense ultraviolet light can burn you. At night, even your soul will freeze into ice.
The two cars drove along the coastline. However, just as they were about to approach Phoenix City, they got off the road and headed straight into the endless wilderness. They pa.s.sed the ruins of some cities, and when they heard the sound of cars, groups of mutants looked out in the direction of the vehicles.
One of the male zombies in a suit sniffled, then let out an unknown low howl. At the same time, a clear bullet hole appeared on its forehead. The live corpse looked somewhat stunned, and only then did it stagger to the ground after the brain matter flowed out from the bullet hole.
In the crosshairs of the sight, the head of the living corpse was removed from its previous position. The gunman lifted his head from the sight of the sniper rifle and whistled.
Ahead of these two cars was a modified off-road vehicle. The front of the car was fitted with a ten-centimeter thick steel baffle welded with sharp spikes that could push away and attack any living creature blocking the front of the SUV.
Behind the SUV was a large truck. The truck was wrapped in a thick tarp, and no one knew what was inside the truck.
Neither of these cars had signs, making it impossible to know where they came from.
It was a young soldier with short brown hair and a typical European face. He put the sniper rifle down at his feet, dropped a piece of gum into his mouth, and began to chew. The driver, a middle-aged man in his forties who seemed to be very mature, said to the young soldier in a somewhat blaming manner, "Oni, don"t do anything unnecessary."
"What are you afraid of? Isn"t it just a living corpse? Don"t make such a fuss, my dear Scrooge. " The soldier called Oni said disapprovingly.
The two of them sat in the driver"s seat of the SUV, while the other three soldiers sat in the back.
One of them, a rough-looking man in his thirties, tapped Oni on the head with the b.u.t.t of his gun and said, "Don"t forget we"re on a mission, son of a b.i.t.c.h. You don"t have to do all that extra stuff. If you get into trouble, I"ll kill you first. "
Touching his head, Oni whispered, "Got it, Captain Sem."
The two soldiers sitting beside the captain started laughing at this Laibao who didn"t know his place. Suddenly, Schiker, who was driving the car, stepped on the brakes. Everyone in the car was surprised by the sudden exit. The soldier, Oni, almost fell out of his driving seat.
"What are you doing?" Ernie called out to him, and was about to curse his colleague. Unexpectedly, he felt a chill in his chest. When he looked again, he saw Schock pull out his military knife and stick it straight into his chest.
Oni"s eyes widened, and the only word that came out of his mouth was "why" before he stopped breathing.
The three men in the back row were startled, too, when Schock stood up and turned around. When the team leader with the name Sam saw this soldier of his, his eyes glazed over like that of a living corpse. He reached for the pistol at his waist, and before Sam could give the order, the other two soldiers had already drawn their guns and fired.
Then there was a shot in the wilderness, and in the Land Cruiser a bullet hole appeared in his forehead, and he lay down on his back.
"What"s going on?" cried Sam.
At this moment, a few pillars of light suddenly lit up in the wilderness. They crisscrossed the two cars, making it almost impossible for Sam to open his eyes.
"Destroy them!" cried Sam as he and two of the soldiers fired at the light source. After a few crisp sounds, the light disappeared. However, there were dozens of lights that lit up at the same time. Under the dim light, Seng Mu saw a few off-road vehicles carrying high speed heavy cannons and more than twenty modified motorcycles surrounding them.
In front of the caravan, there was a one-armed rider riding on a motorbike that looked like it was about to go berserk. (TL: rider = rider = rider = rider = rider = rider = rider = rider = rider = rider = rider = rider = rider = rider) The knight raised his one arm, raised a metal hammer high in the air, and swung it in the direction of Sam"s team. In the next moment, many of the Knights on top of their modified motorcycles shouted out in fear and charged towards Sun Ming"s team, blasting their engines.
Sam saw the riders, all of them with their hair dyed in a mess, dressed like hippies in their leather-bound clothes with spikes. But most importantly, the parts of their bodies that were exposed to the air, whether it was their arms or their chests, were all tattooed with wolf totems. This made Sam think of a notorious organization, the Wolf Pirates!
