I am the former civilized hero.

"I'll try my best. Also, do me a small favor and report this to the higher-ups. I might be missing for a while. If they're smart, they'll keep it a secret. I don't want to hurt too many people by mistake."

The members of Paradise are all big guys, so it is impossible for him to investigate openly.

It was reasonable and a response to the Fire Moth's warning, but Coleman still felt uneasy. He just looked into those gray eyes and nodded slightly.

"No problem, it's within my authority."

"Thanks." Ryan turned and left.

"Wait a minute." Coleman quickly stopped him and looked at Ryan with a suspicious expression, "Are you really going to the Peninsula? When did you become so easy to talk to?"

"Although their motives are unpleasant, they are still legal and reasonable. I always like to convince people with reason." Ryan smiled, nodded slightly, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.

"Hey, they won't let their guard down, don't mess around!"

"Please be kind and let me work less overtime."

Coleman shouted loudly from behind until Ryan disappeared in the crowd. He was stunned and let out a long sigh.

I always felt uneasy, but there was nothing I could do, so I had to take out my cell phone and make a call.

"Hey, latest news. He went to the Peninsula. Yes, yes, yes. Check one thing. He didn't say what it was, but it should be credible. Pay attention to the flight information and let the people over there take over the surveillance."

After hanging up the phone, he lit another cigarette, and after an epic puff of it, he threw it on the ground and crushed it with the toe of his shoe.

"Notify all team members that we will go to the 'Palace' to perform the security mission. Find a few more people to keep a close eye on Himiko and Edwin."

"Captain, is a battle about to happen?" The subordinates' voices became tense, and it sounded like something big was happening.

"I don't know." Coleman glanced at the direction Ryan left. He knew that the other party had no intention of betraying him, otherwise he would not have wasted his time talking to him. But under such high alert, what else could he do?

"I really do not know."

......

The blades rustled as the dark gyroplane flew over the city. Carol looked out the window and could see the lights of the town.

There is no apparent problem at all, but this place is already on the edge of the protected area. There are actually not many civilians in those towns, and all the buildings have been turned into fortresses.

Unfortunately, the Honkai beasts are too strong, especially the large ones. They can tear down reinforced concrete buildings like tofu. There is really no good way to deal with them except heavy firepower. Fortunately, humans have more fusion warriors who can carry out precise sweeps.

I hope this battle is peaceful.

Carol prayed for a moment and turned to look into the cabin. His friend was still wearing that fairy-like long dress with a faint smile on her face.

Because they were the only two in the cabin, Carol's true colors were exposed. She quickly moved over and rubbed Hua with her elbow.

"You are still beautiful. Look at what you have accomplished."

"No way, I'm thinking about the battle plan." Hua rolled her eyes at her. Carol almost had "gossip" written on her face.

As a peer, best friend, and only girlfriend, Hua has always been grateful to him, and even more grateful to Ryan who rescued her from the sea.

With this girl, her rigid personality has become much more lively.

"Tell me quickly, quickly." Carol was very good at reading people's expressions. He immediately grabbed Hua's hand and swung it back and forth.

"Go away, why do you care so much?"

"You are my best friend, so of course I care about your lifelong affairs. Besides, you have so many competitors, which arouses my desire to win. With me as your master advisor, you will definitely win."

You haven't even been in love yourself, so how can you be an expert? Hey, it seems like they have no experience either.

Hua suddenly noticed a blind spot. The expected high-end game was actually a fight between noobs. Take Mebius for example. If she had been more frank, she would have had nothing to do with it.

Carol also helped me choose this dress, which seemed to have played a significant role...

She pursed her lips, and opened her mouth amid her bestie's constant pestering: "Okay, okay, I'll tell you, okay?"

"Remember every detail, I will analyze it for you."

"How come you are more excited than me? Then listen carefully." Hua couldn't do anything to the other party, so he smiled faintly and told him everything about tonight's date. However, influenced by the Fire Moth, it sounded like a battle summary, dry.

She started by talking about how she had gone out, what she had eaten, how many games she had played, and emphasized how fun the fairy wands were, which made Carol scratch her head.

"Who wants to hear this? Besides, you had a hundred chances but you didn't take them. Forget it, let's get to the point."

"You were the one who said that every detail should be taken into consideration."

"Then there's no need to talk about how many rings you hit with each dart, and what the hell is a fairy wand? Why don't you call your senior brother to play with you, so that the sparks can cross and form a ?-shaped pattern to create a romantic atmosphere?"

Hua opened his mouth in confusion, he didn't expect there was such a way to play.

"Okay, let me tell you the main point, when I was watching the festival dance at the top of the mountain..."

She started talking about what Ryan had said to her, and Carol crossed her fingers and her eyes lit up, as if she saw a hero having a heart-to-heart with a girl, and by the way complained that Ryan was also a fool.

Why talk about ideals with a girl at a time like this, and why use the word "you guys"? Fortunately Hua was stupid enough, otherwise the good atmosphere would have been ruined.

But 'I will wait for you for a thousand years, even ten thousand years', this kind of vow is so romantic, even in romance novels, it can only be said but not done.

But she knew Hua could do it, fusion warriors had almost infinite lifespans, and this rigid best friend could really wait for ten thousand years.

Carol imagined the scene where the two met tens of thousands of years later. She couldn't help but feel her scalp tingling and goose bumps all over her body. As she listened, she suddenly blinked.

"Gone?"

"Yeah, that's it. The people from the Fire Moth came looking for us."

"Just a hug? And you haven't even hugged him yet, but you're just standing there like a stake?"

"Well, I haven't been hugged by my senior brother in years. I was so nervous at that time that I didn't dare to move."

The two looked at each other and blinked at each other. Carol suddenly raised his hands to cover his face, then slowly knelt down holding on to the chair.

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Hua suddenly became anxious. They were almost at Karakura City, so how could Carol suddenly fall ill?

"Nothing, I just want to vomit blood. What a good opportunity! I really want to crash into this plane and jump out."

Any normal man would think that he had offended someone. But if I had hugged his waist right then and there and looked into his eyes lovingly, do I still need to teach him what to do next?

Carol felt a mouthful of blood stuck in her throat. She felt that "idiot" was no longer enough to describe the other person. Why was she standing there like an idiot? I could even imagine how nervous she looked.

"I was wrong before, Hua, you are not a fool, you are just a piece of wood, a stupid wood!"

Hua was at a loss for a moment, as if she had done something wrong, making Carol so angry that she wanted to hit him. She tilted her head slightly and thought for a long time.

"Maybe I didn't do something right, but why are you cursing?"

Is this the point?

Carol was stunned and turned to pat the cockpit partition.

"Open the hatch, I want to airdrop!"

Chapter 210: The fire-chasing moth, the tax thief!

Just when Carol was so angry that he wanted to jump out of the plane, Ryan had already landed in Jeju Island. He did not hide his whereabouts and came here openly by flight.

As soon as we landed, we saw a chaotic scene. The waiting hall was crowded with anxious people, each carrying a suitcase, holding instant noodles in their hands, staring at the flight information with their eyes wide open.

Many flights were marked as cancelled or delayed, causing a group of people to curse and rush to the security checkpoint frantically. Then, there was a gunshot and they screamed and fled in all directions.

“This place is such a mess.”

Ryan looked back and shook his head unhappily. There were very few passengers landing, and almost all of them came for official business.

Once we exited the terminal, we saw an even crazier scene.

A dense crowd gathered outside the cordon, holding various signs and slogans and shouting in unison.

"We must survive!"

“The lottery is neither transparent nor fair!”

"I don't want to leave my child!"

"Fire-chasing moth, tax thief!"

The soldiers armed with live ammunition remained silent, using the butts of their rifles to greet anyone who dared to cross over. All kinds of cries and screams immediately filled their ears.

Looking further away, the city was filled with black smoke and occasional crisp gunshots. I thought I had arrived at a war zone.

There is nothing that can be done about it. The Honkai beasts are squeezing from the north to the south, and only a piece of land along the coast is left on the peninsula. The local branch is the weakest among the Fire Moths, so how can it withstand it?

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that within a year or so, this place will be completely abandoned. Of course, they will try their best to run away, but people are running for their lives everywhere, so no one has time to take care of them.

Never mind, it's good for me.

Ryan didn't think much about it. He squeezed out of the crowd, electrocuted a dozen pickpockets, and then got in a taxi to the city center.

"You are so stupid, coming to the peninsula at a time like this." The taxi driver looked at the rearview mirror and finally couldn't hold it in anymore after holding it in for a long time.

"I have to come because of work." Ryan was not angry. He just turned his head and looked out the window. All taxi drivers in the world are talkative.

"A partner of the Fire Moth? Brother, just tell me about it, but remember to keep it a secret when you go out, and try to hide in the base and don't come out."

"why?"

"These bastards have made enough taxes and are ready to run away. Who wants to draw that damn lottery ticket?" The driver cursed and said he would stay here.

Ryan did not explain for the Fire Moth. Even though he was helpless, it was a fact that they left countless ordinary people behind. Just as he had seen with his own eyes, this thing was full of tragedy.

On average, only one person per household can win the lottery, which means separation, and it is indeed unfair. Rich and powerful people can evacuate through special talent channels without having to draw lots, and can even bring their pets with them.

Ryan sighed. There were fewer and fewer absolutely safe protected areas, and most cities had become independent kingdoms. This was why Mei had been hesitant to make up her mind.

It is easy to overthrow the core of the Fire Moths, but the various places will also be divided. Now the sea is becoming more and more dangerous, and relying on that little air transport capacity is really a drop in the bucket.

If we close our borders and cut off the global Internet, we will be truly isolated from the world.

Unity is more troublesome than killing.

Ryan heard gunshots and saw two patrolling Fire Moth soldiers being knocked down by bullets in the distance. A group of masked gangsters rushed up and picked up their guns, which scared the driver so much that he slammed on the brakes.

"Mad, they are rebels. I will take half of the fare and you can go to the city center by yourself."

Rebels do not necessarily embrace Honkai Impact 3rd. It is a general term for all those who oppose the Fire Moths. There are heroes as well as ambitious people.

Ryan paid the full fare, got out of the car with the driver thanking him profusely, then stood by the road and breathed in the peninsula air.

Well, it’s between chaos and order, better than Snow Prison Town, but only in limited ways.

He watched as a group of drones flew overhead, detected the bodies of the soldiers, and then chased in the direction the rebels had left. The sound of frying beans was heard, and then an RPG trailed white smoke and soared into the sky, and with a bang, one was blown up.

"It's scary, isn't it? It's noisy every day."
