I am the former civilized hero.
Page 256
Alicia landed on the ground silently, turned around gracefully, lifted her skirt and knelt down.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. General."
Ryan's eyes followed it instinctively, and when he saw the sly smile and the pretentious curtsy, he couldn't help but look away slightly.
"Don't bury me, Alicia, and you look happy?"
"Of course I am happy. I feel relaxed all of a sudden. Many things that I couldn't do before are no longer necessary."
"Even without the Fire Chaser Council, there is still Mei. She won't allow you to mess around."
Alicia pouted her lips immediately, then she confidently put her hands on her hips and said, "Hehe, no one can resist Super Ali's persuasion!"
"Okay, Mei can't do anything to you, so she'll just throw the problem to me."
Alicia rushed in front of him in an instant, gently held Ryan's hand, and blinked continuously.
"Then my dearest Mr. Ryan, will you stop me?"
Ryan was speechless for a moment. Alicia was really irresistible, so he nodded sullenly.
"Okay, then come with me. I have something to discuss with you."
Ryan was dragged up into the air, and he understood one thing: even if he really wanted to act like a big shot, with Alicia around, he would be defeated in a matter of minutes.
With her personality, how could she be swayed by status?
The two of them jumped out of the building and flew over the city area that was still under construction, facing the reflected golden sunlight, which was quite romantic.
"Wait, how did you know I was awake?"
"Hehe, Ryan and I are of the same mind, and we have been waiting for you for a long time."
Ryan was stunned by the fright, and turned his head to see the girl's eyes full of enthusiasm, obviously she was in high spirits. Just at this moment, a voice came from behind him.
"Ellie, didn't you ask me to send you a message if I ran into Ryan? How can we be so connected?"
"Oh, Sakura, don't worry about such trivial matters." Alicia was not ashamed of being exposed. She just stuck out her tongue and got away with it.
She flew over the lake with Ryan. The soldiers on the warship stared blankly above their heads and realized at a glance that it was Miss Alicia, and the person she was holding in her hand seemed to be the Commander-in-Chief?
The officers looked at each other in confusion. The Fire Chaser was a hierarchical organization. They were more accustomed to the superiors being self-reliant, but now they really felt that something had changed.
But it seems like it’s a good thing to have a commander-in-chief who is not so serious and can lead the charge?
Ryan never cared what others thought, and he despised management. All interpersonal relationships had only one core:
What can you bring to them and what can they bring to you.
At the edge of the woods, there are several two- or three-story cottages. Unlike those welded steel plates, these are wooden buildings and look like holiday villas.
"You guys live here?"
"Yes, Mei said Qianjie is very dangerous and won't let us live in the city. Besides, I have also asked for the consent of the landlord of this house." Alicia landed on the lawn in front of the house, looking like she was "very reliable".
“Who is the landlord?”
"Eden, she donated a lot of money to the underground fortress expansion project. This house was a gift from the former director-general."
It’s that little rich woman, no wonder.
Ryan knew that these materials and supplies were not created out of thin air, and that the funds came from all walks of life. However, he did not expect that the Fire Moth was so smart and was engaged in real estate business at the end of the world.
But that's normal. He has raised a lot of money just by drawing lots. He is an old capitalist.
"Come in quickly, this will be our home from now on. There are plenty of empty rooms, and I plan to let everyone move in." Alicia walked in front like a hostess, with light steps and looking very excited.
Ryan and Ying looked at each other and saw that they were both helpless, but if they thought about it carefully, it would be nice to have someone to take care of them.
"Let's go. It's rare to have a place where we can relax." Ryan is not an ascetic. When Changkong City was hit by a financial crisis, he also stayed in a five-star hotel.
"With Ai Li around, I always forget a lot of troubles, and even forget the era we live in." Ying also sighed, getting used to convincing herself.
"It's always good to live a happy life. This is exactly what she wants."
Ryan had no intention of arguing. He walked across the lawn that was obviously disturbed by human intervention. When he saw Alicia opening the door, he made a "hush" gesture and followed her in quietly.
The house was sold without any decoration included. The house was just simply decorated, and there was a "dong dong dong" sound of nailing wood. Turning the corner, Ryan saw a group of people busy in the living room.
Hua squatted in the corner, tied her hair into a neat ponytail, and was making a bench with a hammer. Not far away, Abonya was sitting on a chair, concentrating on weaving a wall decoration, and there was a couple on the sofa.
Cosmo and Destobia were here too. Ryan recognized them. The two were wiping the floor awkwardly. On the windowsill next to them, Paduafilis was curled up lazily with a pillow in her arms, looking out of place.
"Sister Hua, Sister Nia, it's too much trouble to do it yourself. We can see there are a lot of unwanted furniture on the ground. Why don't we just move some back?"
"It is indeed convenient, but Alicia is right. This villa will be our home in the future, so we need to take better care of it."
"Then how long will it take to finish it?"
"Instead of just standing there, why don't you come and help."
"Hey, I don't know how to do it, why don't I help Kosmo clean the floor."
When the green-haired boy heard this, he immediately hugged the rag nervously and said, "Don't come over. If you kick the bucket over, I'll have to work for a while."
It looks very harmonious, and there is also this lazy cat who slacks off whenever he gets the chance.
Ryan observed secretly, his eyes full of smiles, and felt that things were getting more and more lively around him. It was obvious that in just a few days, this group of people with different personalities had become familiar with each other.
He glanced at Alicia and found that the happiness on the girl's face was so strong that it could not be concealed. This was undoubtedly Ali's favorite life. It felt like a dream come true.
"No wonder you didn't ask me for a gift. It turns out you've already received it."
Ryan raised his foot and was about to teach Paddy a lesson when he heard a creaking sound and the door was quickly opened. He turned around and raised his eyebrows.
A masked man who kept strangers away was standing at the door, carrying a dusty sofa on his shoulders, which was obviously picked up from the ruins. He was also stunned when he saw Ryan.
"What are you here for?"
"Qianjie, I thought you were secretly training to prepare for the duel, but I didn't expect you to be so active."
Hearing Ryan's slightly teasing voice, Qianjie really wanted to smash the sofa directly on the other person's face, but in the end he put it down gently and just raised his head.
"Hmph, it's none of your business, I'm just exercising!"
I really want to see who has a harder mouth, you or Mebius.
Ryan glanced at the living room that was startled, and without provoking the other party, he just gently spread out his hands and gestured for someone to come in.
"Welcome home, Qianjie."
Chapter 282 This is a bit too peaceful
Welcome home.
As a result, Ryan obtained the Fire Moth, Mei gained power, Alicia was no longer restrained, Kevin could finally stay with his lover, and even Qianjie gained a "home".
Considering that there is a new path for collapse, the traitor of humanity finally got what he wanted.
It is a cause for celebration that everyone is a winner in this battle.
Qianjie neither admitted nor refuted. He just looked at Ryan deeply and yelled.
"Padochillis, take the bucket and come out to help!"
"Brother Jie, we are here, don't rush us." Pado ran out actively with the bucket in her arms, and stuck out her tongue when she passed by Ryan.
Obviously she knew that her lazy behavior had been discovered, so she had to perform well now. She had already heard Hua complain about the power of Ryan's full-strength preaching. I don't want to become a wooden fool!
This little clever ghost.
Ryan saw that she had dodged and didn't know what to say. He glanced at the living room which only had a TV and felt that it was a little strange.
It has nothing to do with the tension, but it's a miracle that this group of weirdos haven't blown up the house by staying together.
Ryan's silence immediately made Kosmo nervous. The girl next to him tugged at his clothes, and he stood up with gritted teeth.
"Lai, no, Sir General, we are here to help." He said as he glanced at Alicia. It was she who called him over and then made him stay for unknown reasons.
"No need to look at Ellie, this was my idea. Have you forgotten what I said before?"
Kosmo didn't forget. He thought he would be promoted and get a raise after being noticed, but he never expected to be directly admitted into this small group. After thinking about it, he didn't know what qualifications he had.
Apart from the super-mutation factor of a special Honkai beast, he did not show any terrifying power. Desdobia, who had merged with the Honkai Emperor, was stronger than him, at least standing on the threshold of top combat power.
For a moment, his mind was full of thoughts, but his silence gave people a sense of coldness.
Ryan curled up comfortably on the sofa, looking a little lazy. He had read the information and found that Kosmo was indeed the material for another experimental plan.
The Fire Moth captured a Honkai beast called "Vishnu". Due to the timeline, this Honkai beast was far from growing to the Judgment level, but it had a special ability.
Devouring, it can devour its own kind to strengthen itself, which is commonly known as growth, and this change also turned out to be a blessing in disguise for Kosmo.
He wasn't strong, but he didn't have too many physical mutations, so Ryan thought he was hit by the butterfly effect like Hua.
"Don't think too much. There must be a reason for inviting you to join. Or do you hate this feeling?"
"How can I hate it? I just feel that I am a little unworthy." Kosmo clenched his fists lightly. After spending a few days together, he found that everyone here was stronger than the other, and Qianjie made him tremble.
This is very strange. If Ryan wanted to win over someone, why didn't he go find a higher-level fusion warrior? It can't be that they just seem to get along well.
"Then work hard to become stronger, so that you won't have any psychological burden."
"Okay." Kosmo sat down quickly. Although he still couldn't figure it out, it was a happy trouble.
After comforting Kosmo, Ryan held his chin and felt that he had some preconceived ideas and paid too much attention to the Thirteen Fire-Chasing Heroes. In terms of combat effectiveness, Coleman, Andwich and others were obviously stronger.
But anyway, I always feel more at ease when I can see my 'old friend' alive around me.
Alicia didn't know when she turned on the TV, and Eden's global tour concert was playing. This was also arranged by Mei, using entertainment to soothe the doubts brought about by the drastic changes.
The melodious song completely calmed Ryan's heart, and he glanced around casually.
Hua was still doing carpentry work, Aponiya was smiling and gently waving the paintbrush, and Alicia was sitting on the ground with her hands on her knees, staring at TV like a child.
Kosmo and Desdobia were a little impatient, so they took buckets to help Qianjie clean the furniture. As the sound of cursing came, Himiko, who had just finished a meeting, yawned and ran straight to the kitchen to get beer.
After a while, Wei Liwei, who was covered in dirt, came back. As soon as she entered the house, Ying took her to the bathhouse.
How should I put it? This is a bit too peaceful.
Ryan yawned, feeling that his last bit of sharpness was completely lost. For a moment, he forgot about Honkai and Herrscher, which reminded him of another Golden Courtyard.
There is no fighting, everyone is just like ordinary people, going home after get off work when the time comes.
"Ryan, you look so happy."
