My Apocalypse Fortress Vehicle - Chapter 389
c389 final preparations
That night, Old Jack was lying on a chair, smoking a cigarette, and talking to V. The conversation between the two was very ordinary. If someone was monitoring the two of them at this moment, they would definitely feel disappointed.
Gu Zhuo listened to their conversation for a while, then lay aside and thought about his own things.
For an unknown period of time, the two men were silent. Gu Zhuo turned to look at them and found that at some point, these two guys had fallen asleep.
“You’re really big-hearted, and you’re not afraid that I’ll sneak you two away.”
Gu Zhuo looked at the two sleeping people, shook his head and smiled.
All joking aside, he would naturally not attack these two people. He still has to rely on V’s knowledge and technology to open the huge energy machine at the top of Arasaka Tower and send himself back to the space crack.
Although V gave him the knowledge chip without any scruples, and now Gu Zhuo can do it himself, Gu Zhuo is not willing to do so.
Whether he is vigilant or V is testing himself through this method.
To Gu Zhuo’s surprise, out of some subtle mood, he didn’t want V and Old Jack to die.
He glanced at the two sleeping people and didn’t know when these two guys would wake up. He stepped down from the recliner, came to the two of them, gently pulled their clothes up a little, and then returned to the truck.
Lying down on the small bed behind the cockpit, Gu Zhuo looked through the car window at the two people lying outside.
They lay there so quietly, motionless, and the pipe in Old Jack’s mouth had not even been extinguished. This guy, I don’t know what he is capable of, but he doesn’t even choke himself when he does this.
This feeling seems to bring Gu Zhuo back to his days at the base. Jia Sheng, Akashi and the others have always been so confident about themselves. They will not be wary of themselves, let alone worry that they will harm them.
As Gu Zhuo lay there, he couldn’t help but think of the past.
If Sam’s stupid dog was still here, he would definitely be clamoring for some meat. If Chaoying was still there, she would definitely not let herself drink too much.
Not only that, on such a night, even if it was just this small bed, Chaoying would definitely hug him and stay with him.
They would kiss each other and then fall asleep peacefully.
As long as she is here in this world, all dangers can be passed through safely. She is his last desire, his last expectation, the last rose on his barren land.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhuo suddenly felt heartache.
He didn’t know what Chaoying’s situation was now, his life or death was uncertain.
If he enters the space crack again and cannot find her, Gu Zhuo would rather destroy this terrible world together.
By then, there will really be no expectations left.
He could have endured the darkness if he had never seen the light.
With such thoughts, he gradually fell asleep. He didn’t know when he fell asleep.
At six or seven in the morning, Gu Zhuo was woken up by a knock on the door. Someone was banging on his car door. He was a very light sleeper, so when he heard someone knocking on the door, he woke up immediately, only to find that the person knocking on his door was none other than Old Jack.
At this time, Old Jack had already woken up from yesterday’s hangover, and his nose was a little red.
Gu Zhuo stood up, put on some clothes and opened the car door for him:
“woke up?”
“woke up.”
Old Jack answered him, his voice a little buzzing, and he didn’t know if he had a cold due to the cold wind blowing last night.
“V left early in the morning. I don’t know when he left. When I got up, I didn’t see anyone around me. I thought you had sold me. I just took a look and found that I was still in the yard. Until you are here.”
After Old Jack finished speaking, he rubbed his nose. The smell of cigarette smoke was very strong all over his body. After all, tobacco smoked him all night.
“Yesterday you two fell asleep while chatting. You are so generous and you are not afraid that I will steal your waist at night.”
Gu Zhuo said jokingly.
“What are you afraid of? I’m installing alloy steel waists. I can install a few more of yours. I’ve never been timid!”
“Then I’ll definitely come down and see what kind of steel waist it is when I have time someday. It’s so powerful.”
Gu Zhuo joked with him.
The experience last night seemed to make the relationship between the two of them suddenly become much better than the first time they met.
“Okay, I won’t talk to you anymore. I have to go back and prepare my own weapons. Tomorrow is the day to break into Arasaka Tower. V has been planning it for so long, so he must have a lot of things to arrange today.”
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo looked at him:
“You want to come with us too?”
“Of course. What’s that look in your eyes, are you looking down on me? Do you think I can’t go to the battlefield and fight those company lackeys?”
“no.”
Gu Zhuo shook his head and answered truthfully,
“I just didn’t expect it. I thought you were specializing in logistics, but in the end you had to go to the battlefield yourself.”
“My old Jack is much more capable than you think. Stop looking down on others, you brat.”
Old Jack said, tapping Gu Zhuo’s back hard with his hand.
Old Jack has a big body and a lot of strength. Fortunately, Gu Zhuo’s body is also hard, so he didn’t feel much even after Old Jack knocked him so hard.
“Your body is indeed quite strong.”
Old Jack couldn’t help but talk to Gu Zhuo.
After he finished speaking, he took back his hand and prepared to leave:
“I’m going back and preparing my own weapons. Let’s see you tomorrow. Tomorrow, I hope you have prepared everything. Don’t be afraid and dare not go up.”
“I won’t be afraid.”
Gu Zhuo shrugged and replied.
“Don’t be so arrogant. Have you ever killed anyone? Killing someone is completely different from killing robots or beasts!”
Upon hearing Old Jack’s question, Gu Zhuo glanced at him meaningfully, grinned at the corner of his mouth, and sneered:
“The thing I’m best at in my life is killing people.”
Seeing Gu Zhuo’s sudden cold eyes, Old Jack was stunned for a moment.
He originally just wanted to make fun of Gu Zhuo, but he didn’t expect that the murderous aura bursting out of him directly shocked Old Jack himself.
How could Old Jack have imagined that Gu Zhuo had originally fought his way out of the pile of dead people and killed countless lackeys and villains in the apocalypse. Regarding life and death, I have seen it clearly than anyone else.
He is definitely not an embroidered pillow, nor is he a coward.
Old Jack waved his hands and realized that he didn’t know Gu Zhuo’s past details at all.
“Okay, you have something.”
After Old Jack finished speaking, he was ready to leave.
Gu Zhuo escorted him out of the yard. When he reached the door, Old Jack suddenly stopped and hesitated for a moment, then turned around and asked him:
“K, although my question is strange, I still want to know, are the things you said last night true?”
“What words?”
“Those Vikings really went to the Hall of Valor in the end, and Odin really came to take the Viking warriors home. Is this true?”
Unexpectedly, Old Jack was still worried about this matter. Gu Zhuo sighed, nodded heavily, and said to him in a sincere tone:
“It’s true, I will never lie to you.”
“well.”
Old Jack seemed to have taken a reassurance, and kept nodding his head, his face regained its different look, full of vitality.
“I’m going back, there’s no need to send me off again.”
After he finished speaking, he left the house and strode outside with quick strides.
His back looks so determined, like a towering hill.
This hill will not collapse because it carries eternal faith.
Looking at Old Jack’s leaving figure, Gu Zhuo did not regret telling such a lie. He closed the door and returned to the yard.
He looked around the yard. Old Jack didn’t leave anything behind, but there was a letter on the chair where V lay down at night.
This is a very strange thing. Letter paper still exists in this era, and V actually carries a piece of letter paper with him. One has to wonder if he was planning to write something to Gu Zhuo.
Gu Zhuo opened the folded letter and spread it out to read.
There was nothing special written on the letter paper, only a few short sentences that Gu Zhuo could understand:
“Last night was very happy, and it made me more certain that you are a comrade worthy of entrusting our lives to Old Jack and me.
“Regarding what those Vikings said, I thank you on behalf of old Jack. Also, I think what he said, identifying you as the only and destined master of Night Owl, I think he is right. You come from the past. , no matter what the reason is, this is a fateful accident. I believe you are the one who can end everything and start all new lives.
“Old Jack and I believe in you, very much.
“Also, if I have the chance, I will definitely read that “Crime and Punishment”.
“If I don’t have the chance, I can only go to heaven to apologize to God in the future. I did what He should do and judged so many lives for Him. It seems that I need a lot of time to repent.”
After Gu Zhuo read this letter, although he didn’t know what V meant by writing these things, there would be another chance to meet him tomorrow, and this time it would be like a last letter.
He refolded the letter, put it away, and put it in his pocket.
He couldn’t care less, and now he was going to make final preparations for climbing Arasaka Tower tomorrow.
