Outside the north gate, two groups of people was in a stalemate.
A fight was imminent.
“You can believe in me, and I will keep my promise. We want you, not the child.”
Mo Qing looked at Zhou Mian fixedly.
Zhou Mian paused, smiled and let go.
“Well, I’ll bet then.”
After Zhou Mian loosened his grip on Mo Qing, he was immediately pulled away by the man on the side.
Zhou Mian was pressed to his knees, this time bound by heavy chains.
And Mo Qing also kept the agreement, holding Xiaole and handing over the child to Casper’s deputy.
Mo Qing put the dagger on the side of Zhou Mian’s neck and said, “Please proceed.” The aircraft that was under Black Phoenix came out of its stealth mode, the hatch opened and landed, and Zhou Mian was half-dragged onto the aircraft.
“Onwards——!”
Zhou Mian was taken away, and after getting rid of the threat, Casper immediately led people to rush up, wanting to stop the aircraft from taking off.
The two sides directly fired, Black Phoenix and the pirates cooperated, the pirates were quietly let in by Mo Qing before, and at this moment they immediately drove the aircraft and fought with the 12th army.
Artillery fire rushed into the sky, bullets flew into the sky, and this small open space immediately turned into a battlefield.
“Boom!”
But then, Casper saw that the scene in front of him was covered in an inferno, and all he could see was black smoke.
“Boom! Boom-” “Boom-” “
“Be careful! There is Thunder1 landmines on the ground! ” They didn’t know when countless thunders were buried under the ground, and they erupted in unison at this moment.
……
Zhou Mian was tied to the iron chain against the wall, and at this moment he was sitting in the corner, and he could see the scene outside through the window.
Black smoke rushed into the sky, blood dripping onto the ground.
Zhou Mian looked at Mo Qing expressionlessly. Even though he was tied up and unable to move, the momentum was still there.
Mo Qing hugged her chest and leaned on the side and lowered her eyes: “I am also forced to do this else there’s no other way.”
As Mo Qing said, only in this way could they break through the encirclement of the army and leave the capital.
The aircraft left the Federation’s monitoring range all the way, and then entered a large battleship, presumably the main battleship of the Dark Phoenix.
“Click.”
The door was pushed open, and an old man walked in. The old man was dressed in a white robe, and although he was too old to even straighten his waist, his eyes were still bright. Behind the old man, there were many men and women wearing the same clothes as him, and they all looked gloomy.
“Director.” Mo Qing then bent down and said, “Caught him.”
“Caught … That kid back then?” The old man grinned, and an almost crazy smile appeared on his wrinkled face.
Zhou Mian was stunned.
What the?
“Yes, we have been observing for many years, and I guessed that it should be him.” Mo Qing said, “I poisoned him before, but it didn’t work, and the drug that the director gave me was also ineffective.”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
“What…?!” The old man was happy and excited: “That drug is not an ordinary drug… When we developed it, this child’s physical fitness was not so strong, but I didn’t expect that in a few years, the body would actually evolve on its own… Even my drug can resist it.”

……
……
“Little Seven, Little Seven…”
“You wake up…!”
Zhou Mian slowly opened his eyes.
It’s cold……
It’s so cold.
It was white all around, and the wind and snow blurred the road ahead.
A boy stands in front of him, obviously just a child, but he is trying to block the wind and snow with his little body.
“Xiao Qi, don’t sleep…! Don’t sleep! We can get through this!”
Zhou Mian still couldn’t resist the sleepiness and discomfort in his body, and closed his eyes and slept.
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid… I’ll take you out! They can’t catch up…”
…
“Little Seven, spit it out! Spit it out and you’ll be fine.”
“Don’t cry, brother will blow on the wound for you, blowing it won’t hurt…”
This time, after Zhou Mian opened his eyes, he found that the place where he was in a small, dark space.
“He” is crying with his stomach in his arms.
That’s right, Zhou Mian could see himself, which was the him when he was a child.
Zhou Mian felt a little puzzled, there was a difference in his memory, he clearly knew the child in front of him, was “himself”.
But when he was a child, he looked almost completely different from the him now, and his hair was pure blue.
Why……?
Xiao Zhou Mian was kneeling on the side at this moment, his face was white and trembling, and bean-sized tears fell down one by one, as if he was enduring some pain.
“Little Qi, don’t be afraid…” A boy pressed Little Zhou Mian with one hand, but the other hand was reaching into Zhou Mian’s mouth with his index finger.
“Spit it out!” The boy was inducing vomiting.
“Hmm… Hmm…”
“What they gave you was poison, they were training your anti-poison ability, Xiao Qi, you can’t give in… Spit it out!”
“If you can’t throw it out, you’ll be in so much pain that you can’t sleep tonight!”
Xiao Zhou Mian struggled while crying, and finally just screamed endlessly.
In the end, Little Zhou Mian hit the wall on the side in the chaos and fainted.
Zhou Mian’s eyes darkened, and he fainted again.
What made Zhou Mian feel strange was that he always looked down on the boy’s face, and the facial features of the big brother who had always protected him were always blurred in his memory.
……
……
After Zhou Mian opened his eyes again, the strange feeling finally disappeared.
Zhou Mian tried to move his fingers to make sure that he had “returned” to his body and woke up from his dream.
Zhou Mian could feel that he was tied to a hard bed by rubber strips, except for his fingers and toes, he couldn’t move a single part of his body, and even his eyes were blindfolded.
What made Zhou Mian care was that he had a helmet-like instrument tied to his head, which was extremely heavy.
Zhou Mian couldn’t see the rest of the people, but he could hear the ticking sound of instruments operating and the crowd of people walking.
“How?”
“07 Data is business as usual, but memory awakening fails… 07 because of major stimuli, has forgotten his childhood memories, and such intermittent amnesia caused his ability that he learnt from us when he was a child to be forgotten.”
“Tch… Troublesome.”
Zhou Mian paused in his heart.
‘When I was a child, I was in the Dark Phoenix Organization, and my identity was their experimental subject…?’
That dark room, that big brother… That missing memory, all about the Dark Phoenix?
Zhou Mian only felt shock.
“Then we can only forcibly implant his memory!”
With the old man’s order, Zhou Mian only felt that the helmet released some kind of waves, and his brain seemed to be pried open and squeezed by someone, and his whole self hurt.
“Ahhh… Yes!”
Zhou Mian kept panting, his hands clenched his fists, and his nails dug into his palms till they drew blood.
Didi Didi –
“Report! The experimental subject has a sense of resistance!”
“Then step up the invasion!”
“Ah———”
Blood flowed out of Zhou Mian’s hands, and the cries made because of the pain could no longer be endured and kept quiet.
Perhaps worried that Zhou Mian would bite himself, someone stuffed a cloth into Zhou Mian’s mouth.
Zhou Mian whimpered, and the blindfolded black cloth was wet with physiological tears.
This is not the direct pain of skin trauma, nor the pain of internal injury, but indescribable, it was a strong feeling like his heart and lungs were being torn out, it was coming from the depths of the brain, and the trance gave birth to an illusion that his very soul is being pulled out.
The brain was shocked with ultra-high volts.
This could be the most direct description.
“No…! 07 It was only after a major stimulus that the consciousness of resistance appeared to suppress the memory, that is to say, the stimulation we give him now must be large enough to be able to overwhelm the year…”
“But if you really adjust to this level, it will endanger the life of the experimental subject.”
There was a discussion going on near his ears, but Zhou Mian’s consciousness was already disordered, and then he couldn’t hold on to it anymore and fainted.
——— XXXX ———
“Admiral…” Casper bowed his head, “It’s my incompetence.”
Cecil looked at Casper expressionlessly.
After watching for a moment, Cecil did not reply to him, but turned to look at the display screen of the main battleship.
When Cecil was near B2, he saw the enemy’s formation and realized that it was a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, and immediately asked the main battleship to turn back to the federal capital.
At this time, Cecil did not know what the purpose of the Dark Phoenix was, who it was, and what they wanted to do in the capital, but there was a faint feeling of irritability in his heart.
And after he threw off the entanglement of the enemy and rushed back to the Federation as quickly as possible, the first news he received was that Zhou Mian had an accident.
Zhou Mian was kidnapped by the Dark Phoenix.
At that moment, Cecil only felt that the blood all over his body froze and coagulated.
Casper reported the situation to him and pleaded guilty, but Cecil had no time to be upset, he could only let Casper quickly reorganize the XII Army and then board the main battleship with him… must pursue quickly!
At this moment, Cecil was standing in the main battleship’s control room, with his arms crossed and looking at the black screen in front of him.
Zhou Mian sent him a positioning, they can track Zhou Mian’s location, but planet H5 is a familiar place for Dark Phoenix, they used a lot of interstellar shortcuts, and Cecil’s army couldn’t catch up for a while.
“Admiral, I…”
“Okay, no more talk.” Cecil said, “You’ve done your best. Many people in the 12th Army were seriously injured and sent to the hospital.”
There was a warm smile on Cecil’s mouth, but it was not aimed at Casper.
Dark Phoenix…
Cecil squinted his eyes slightly, and the momentum around him was so heavy that Casper did not even dare to raise his head on the side.
“You say.” Cecil said coldly, “Why did they target Ah Mian? The previous poisoning could also be said to be blackmail, but this time such a big operation was to kidnap Zhou Mian, and it was obvious that their target was Zhou Mian himself.”
“I don’t know.” Casper hung his head.
Cecil put his hands in his trouser pockets, his gaze obscure.
“Admiral… Please rest assured.” Seeing Cecil, Casper tried to comfort, “Dark Phoenix won’t do anything to Admiral Zhou…”
“Huh.”
Cecil lowered his eyes and whispered, “If he is…”
If his guess is correct, if it really is so… Coincidentally, it’s unbelievable.
If Zhou Mian was that person… That, Cecil did not dare to think about it.
At this moment, Cecil could not go thinking about what the Dark Phoenix would do to him, Cecil could only keep his mind awake and the anger and blood boiling in his body to ensure that the mission went smoothly.
“In any case, it is imperative to rescue Ah Mian.” Cecil said word by word: “No matter what the cost.”
“Yes Sir!”
