The night is quiet. The tranquility brings a mixture of warmth and light food, clothing, and bedding. This smell permeates every corner of the room, making people feel at ease and feel lazy and difficult from the heart.

This is the taste of home.

The wall clock in the bedroom was ticking, as if it had awakened Song Chenxiao.

But in fact, she has not slept since she lying down. After lying open her eyes for a while, she got up and went down to the ground with her hands and feet. The sound of pulling her slippers woke Li Kaiwen up. He turned on the bedside lamp and asked sleepyly: "What's wrong?"

"I'll go see my son." Song Chenxiao opened the door.

Li Kaiwen smiled bitterly: "You can watch it tomorrow, have you given three days off?"

"You don't have to worry about it!" She angrily walked out.

So Li Kaiwen thought about it, put on his pajamas and followed behind: "Be gentle, don't wake up your son."

The two walked to the door of the guest room and gently turned the handle, and the spring made a slight "clog". So Song Chenxiao stopped quickly, and waited until the sound calmed down before exerting force again and opening the door.

Their son Li Zhen slept in the bed, spreading into a big character. The slight snoring sound was intermittent, and he looked very sleeping. After a while, Song Chenxiao suddenly let go and walked away. Li Kaiwen quickly took the handle, closed the door gently, chased him into the living room, and sat down beside her: "What's wrong with you?"

Song Chenxiao wiped his eyes with his hands, and sighed while crying: "If he had a few short and two shorts, how could we live? Haven't you heard of it? He went to more than thirty years and came back three times. I didn't want him to do this at the beginning, but now..."

So Li Kaiwen fell silent, stretched out his hand to his wife, sighed heavily, and said a long time later, "We can't make a decision."

"Then let's quit!" Song Chenxiao cried, "You all resigned. Let's move out. The old house is still there. Let's do a business. Why isn't the family safe and safe doing better than now?"

Li Kaiwen stroked her back and comforted her repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'll ask him tomorrow. My son is old..."

After he said this, Song Chenxiao cried even harder. But he was afraid that the sound would disturb Li Zhen, so he got up and walked to the bedroom and shook his head: "What are you asking... I don't know yet, how can I let him go, there are only three left in total..."

Li Kaiwen whispered while supporting her: "Our son is amazing, I heard from Director Dai..."

With the sound of closing the door, the words suddenly fell down. However...

Li Zhen can still hear it.

He opened his eyes, put his hands behind his head, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The long night is really hard to bear.

After the mission was over, I took three days off, and today was the first day. However, the days before these three days of holidays were even more difficult...

On the battlefield are facing fierce enemies, fighting with guns and bullets, but "fighting" outside the battlefield seems to be more likely to cause collapse. Report, check, test, inquiry. Everything is so trivial that it makes him crazy.

The "resonance" incident has aroused great interest from the people in the North Court. If he were the ones in the past... he would have been taken over by those people to "remediate" them. However, now he is no longer the same as he used to.

There is something else in the body...

He could feel it.

More than thirty people died. Only Adam was replaced.

It was an unprecedented heavy loss for the Northern Base, but it was a kind of luck for him.

At least there is no need to have the same concerns as before. The extraordinary performances of the first two times came from resonance with Adam, who had been worried about his "nothing is worthy of his name" and was worried that if an emergency situation occurs, he would not be able to turn the tide as everyone hopes.

But now, he has mastered that mysterious power.

Resonance. Resonance hidden deep in the bloodline. He understood some things... Although he was still confused and not real, it was enough to surprise him and feel excited. If the enemy he faced next time was still that terrible type, he at least knew what he should do.

And even if there is no such type...

He still has another ace. The power of flame inherited from the Red Knight.

Resonance brings him not only great potential beyond ordinary people, but also extraordinary fusion speed. Adam's resonance allows him to absorb the ability of the "electric eel", and when he symbiotically with Chiyou, he completely absorbs the ability of the Red Knight. He has no doubt that if he collects the blood of other abilities, walks to Adam, and causes another resonance, he can become an unprecedented strong man - far surpassing A-level strong man, with several or even a dozen psychic powers.

But such opportunities are obviously hard to come by - there are rare people with A-level abilities in this world.

What's more, he had known for a long time that while those who are capable have had a powerful force that surpasses ordinary people, they have also paid the price - they actually have some kind of physiological defect.

The changes at the genetic level make them more susceptible to the erosion of one or several specific diseases. Most of the high-level abilities in history have short lives, and it seems that the ability to be exerted at the cost of overdrawing their lives.

So what about yourself?

In theory, it should be immortal. But immortality does not mean that you can ignore all risks... I have already given birth to wings - this sounds really beautiful.

But what if, because of too many changes in the genes, something else happens in the body, wrist foot, burrs, nauseous mucus...will eventually turn into an alien monster?

It was this reason that after taking the risk of absorbing the power of the Red Knight, he did not try to merge with the power of others. So the dream of becoming a super strong man had to be hidden deep in his heart for the time being.

He still needs to wait. Wait for a certain day, a certain conclusion.

But none of these matters, nothing is important...

Actually, there is another thing.

That thing...

Li Zhen frowned and stared at the ceiling. A minute later, a smile bloomed on his lips.

The second day of the holiday.

Li Zhen got up early and prepared breakfast for the family of three. Perhaps because he was too late last night, Li Kaiwen and Song Chenxiao had not yet gotten up. So Li Zhen finished his own portion and brought a cup of hot coffee to the balcony.

This was originally a terrace, but after the beginning of winter, Li Kaiwen asked someone to add a glass cover and planted a lot of flowers and plants. At present, the branches and vines were growing happily, climbing along the rack made of thin bamboo poles, and even the roof was filled with green. He stood under a flower tree and looked into the distant mountains with a mug. He glanced at the left more than a dozen times in half an hour.

There is a glass window that can be opened on the left, which is Dai Bingcheng's terrace.

At around seven o'clock, it was just dawn and Li Zhen heard the sound of pulling the door.

So he walked to the window and opened the glass window, and raised his glass to Dai Bingcheng, who was wearing pajamas and walked out to breathe, saying, "Director, it's so good."

The people over there were a little stunned and saw Li Zhen’s smiling face. They also smiled and said, “It’s rare for young people to not sleep in.”

Li Zhen took a sip of coffee and supported her elbow on the windowsill: "It's rare to go home, I don't want to fall asleep all the time. My parents also discussed yesterday that they would invite you to come to my house for the Spring Festival - it's always more lively for too many people."

Dai Bingcheng was separated by a window and saw Li Zhen’s face shining in the light of the rising sun. This should indeed be what a vibrant young man should look like, but...

But he still smiled: "Okay."

Li Zhen nodded and took another sip of coffee. After a while, he raised his face from the misty heat and said slowly: "Director, there is something in our base that I haven't figured out... I want to ask."

Dai Bingcheng sat on a recliner on the balcony and said with a smile: "You said. I can give you some more lessons."

"Well... I heard that there is a Bronze King in our Secret Service..." Li Zhen looked at Dai Bingcheng with a sincere smile on his face. "I used to think that this kind of thing should not be asked too much. But I remembered it for no reason last night - maybe the A-level impressions of the Gate of Truth I met in the south... So I wondered who the Bronze King is?"

Dai Bingcheng still held a smile on his face, but his fingers on the handrail bounced slightly. He coughed and looked at Li Zhen with a smile: "Why are you suddenly interested in this?"

"Just... I'm a little curious." Li Zhen held the coffee cup in his hand, and the half of the coffee that had been slightly cooled was steaming again. "I've seen one of the kings. I originally thought I could see the King of Bronze in this mission, but the result..."

The smile on Dai Bingcheng's face gradually became colder.

Li Zhen then stopped talking and looked at Dai Bingcheng. After a few seconds, he seemed to suddenly realize it and quickly showed an awkward look: "Ah... Director, I'm not, I didn't say..."

Dai Bingcheng waved his hand and sighed: "It's not your fault. It turns out that those old people didn't tell you, and they didn't want to say it either. This time..." He looked up at the sky outside the window, "I can't help myself. After all, it's not a young man like you - he is ruled by rules and regulations, and he is powerless if he has the heart. But I miss my youth - just like you, rushing wherever there is danger..."

Li Zhen held the mug and listened quietly until Dai Bingcheng sighed again and closed his eyes tiredly, then he whispered: "Sorry."

Dai Bingcheng held the corner of his mouth.

The two were together so quietly in the morning light, and Li Zhenhua finished drinking the coffee in the cup in five minutes.

He looked at Dai Bingcheng who seemed to be about to fall asleep and whispered: "Director, I want to take three days off in these three days."

“Didn’t stay enough at home?”

"No, I've come up with a base to do something. I have a friend before..."

"Um."

Li Zhen blinked: "Did you agree?"

Dai Bingcheng raised his hand and waved it: "Go to the office to say hello to Director Li, I'll just call her. Remember to register."

So Li Zhen let out a light breath and whispered: "Then I... won't bother you."

Then he pulled up the window and smiled.

====================================================

I was so happy to see many book friends’ speculations about the plot development in the book review area. However, the plot development may be somewhat different from everyone’s guess. If you don’t understand some things for the time being... don’t worry, that’s the foreshadowing of our later :)
