On May 24, the Rheinland Life IV experimental base.

3 a.m.

The door to Xia Feng's room was pushed open, and a tall figure walked in through the door.

It's Serea.

At this time, Xia Feng did not lie on the bed to sleep, but sat quietly on the edge of the bed.

Even if he didn't draw out the black power at this moment, there was still a faint black mist around his body, and the whole room centered on him, as if an invisible black hole had been born.

A great sense of oppression pervades the room.

If the person who came in was not Serena but an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would be forced to immobilize by this sense of oppression.

.............

Serena stood in the doorway, and a deep voice came from her.

"It's time, let's go."

"Yes."

Xia Feng stood up calmly and followed Serena out of the room.

Until this day came, Hemmer had not been able to find a way to suppress the expansion of power, and according to the prior agreement, Xia Feng had to leave Base 4 at the last moment.

No one knows what's going to happen, and that's good for everyone.

..............

Xia Feng followed behind Serena and walked from the fourth floor to the first floor.

They didn't meet anyone along the way, only the footsteps of the two echoed in the air.

Standing in the middle of the hall on the first floor, Xia Feng couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Before he knew it, it had been a month since he and the turtle came to the Rhine to live.

Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, it is generally believed that the Rhine life is not a good bird, and they have no feelings, and secretly carry out some dark experiments against human nature.

Although Xia Feng had also suffered outrageous treatment before, being secretly experimented on unconsciously, he did not have any resentment towards Rhine Life, because he knew that it was all the order of the person in charge of the former Source Stone project.

In the final analysis, Rhine Life inhibited the worsening of his ore disease, and of course, this was mainly due to Hemer's help, and Hemmer was willing to help him because he saved Ifrit during the natural disaster.

He now knows what the power in his body is.

Hemmer also made good on her promise.

...........

Rhine life may not be as dark as the world sees, at least in the No. 4 experimental base that Hemer is in charge of, Xia Feng feels a trace of warmth.

Serea, Ifrit, Hemer.

Here, he didn't see cold-blooded and ruthless science madmen, he saw just a group of flesh-and-blood knights of the ark who tried their best to fight against fate.

..........

"Drop!"

The heavy metal door was opened, and in front of him was a passage that had never been walked before, and Xia Feng knew that this passage was the one that led to the outside.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a person standing behind a pillar not far away.

The turtle poked out half of its head, staring at him quietly from behind the pillar.

Obviously, even if no one told her, the turtle had realized something after so many days.

Xia Feng didn't hesitate, and walked over to her expressionlessly.

Walking up to the turtle, Xia Feng gently put his hand on her head.

The turtle lowered her head and let Xia Feng caress her head, and a lost voice came out of her mouth.

"Big windmill, you'll be back."

"Of course."

"Don't keep me waiting too long, if it does, I'll forget about your existence."

Xia Feng showed a smile of relief, raised his hand to untie the scarf on his head, and wrapped it around the turtle's neck.

"Turtle, I'm leaving."

"Well, have a nice trip."

Xia Feng took one last look at the turtle's immature face, then turned around and walked towards the passage.

He didn't see it, and just as he turned around, a crystal teardrop fell from the turtle's eye to the ground.

.............

At some point, Hemmer's figure also appeared at the entrance to the passage.

She leaned against the wall of the entrance with her shoulders crossed, her eyes gently closed.

Xia Feng didn't have anything to say, took a step, and followed Serena straight into the passage.

As she passed by Hermer's side, Xia Feng heard a guilty voice coming from her mouth.

"I'm sorry."

Xia Feng stopped and smiled gently.

"Hemer, you've done your best, and the next thing is my own battle, say a word for me and Aina, her cooking is really delicious."

Hemmer looked up.

"I'd better wait for you to come back and say it to her personally."

"Oh, okay."

After saying this, Xia Feng seemed to realize something.

Then he suddenly quickened his pace, and trotted all the way into the passage without looking back.

Serena next to her immediately chased after her.

"Hey, don't be in such a hurry, wait a minute."

Xia Feng trotted all the way, and it wasn't until he turned a corner that he slowed down.

I don't know why just now, the atmosphere suddenly changed a bit like a scene in a Korean drama, this whole temptation to go home, it's just a sad BGM.

To be honest, he felt that he could still save it now, but if he continued, he might not really be able to come back.

Serena catches up with the summer breeze.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I'm nothing, oh yes, shouldn't you say goodbye to me too?"

"Say goodbye? I'm going to drive you to the designated location. ”

"Oh."

...............

After 5 minutes.

"Drop!"

As the last iron door opened, a cool breeze swept across Xia Feng's face.

There was a barren scene in his field of vision, and although it was still dark, he could still see that the location of Base 4 was not an urban area.

Get out of the aisle.

Xia Feng glanced back at the back, a magnificent steel fortress appeared in view, and from the outside, the huge Rhine Life No. 4 experimental base was far more spectacular than from the inside.

Looking at the bare sand and gravel around him, stepping on the solid ground, Xia Feng couldn't help but ask Serea next to him.

"Here?"

"This is northern Colombia, and 11 years ago, there was a bustling city here, and the name of the city was Buda, but now it can only be called the Buda region."

The summer breeze turned its head sideways.

"Really?"

"That's right, 11 years ago, Buda City was destroyed by natural disasters, because of its long history, Buda City did not have the technology to move the city-state, the whole city was razed to the ground by a black storm, and afterwards, the surrounding area of several kilometers became a forbidden area, until 3 years ago, Rhine Life detected that the source stone material in this area has dissipated, so it chose to build the No. 4 experimental base here."

Xia Feng nodded.

"I see, if you set up an experimental base in such a deserted area, no matter what happens, no one will find out."

"There should be that consideration at the top."

The entire Experimental Base 4 is like an ancient castle hidden in the desert, except for a few staff, not even the personnel in charge of security and security.

Xia Feng knows that the scarcity of personnel does not mean that the defense force is weak, and sometimes, tools are safer than people.

.............

There is a row of cars parked on the left side of the exit of the passage, which looks a bit like a powerful off-road vehicle in terms of styling.

Serena casually opened a car door and sat in the driver's seat, she printed her fingerprint on a sensor, and the car's engine was instantly activated.

"Huh!"

With one foot of the brake, the tires of the off-road vehicle brought out an arc and stopped in front of Xia Feng.

Serena sat in the driver's seat and pointed her hand towards him.

"Get in the car, we're getting out of here now."
