Another day ended, and Thomas returned to his residence slightly tired.

Here, his 'younger brother' named Huoxue was still sitting at the table, writing and drawing something he couldn't understand.

Since he brought his younger brother back, he has been in this state.

He didn't care about the development of the territory, and he didn't have any other needs.

But it was good this way, Thomas really didn't have the energy to have some troublesome developments with him.

Every day, the food, safety, disputes and other things of the people consumed most of his energy.

This kind of fatigue is not only from the body, but also...

Thomas came to his bedside, thinking that today he would sleep until the next morning like before.

"Are you tired?"

A plain voice sounded in the house.

Thomas looked at Huoxue in surprise. The last time he talked to him should have been a few months ago.

Unexpectedly, the other party would take the initiative to chat about the topic.

But there is nothing to hide: "It's a lie to say I'm not tired."

"But in order to survive, this is necessary."

Huoxue's tone was very calm, as if he was talking about an inconspicuous ant on the roadside: "Survival? Who? Your people?"

"Yes!"

"Although their bodies have been changed by the fog and they no longer have blood, we can't deny the significance of their efforts to survive!"

"They still have laughter, pain, and sadness!"

Thoma seemed a little excited, in sharp contrast to Huoxue's calmness.

Huoxue put down the pen in his hand: "How do you prove that these are true?"

"Or, why do you think this is true?"

"Then how do you prove that these are false!"

Huoxue did not change his attitude because of Thomas's questioning: "I don't need proof, you actually know it."

The conversation ended here.

Thoma couldn't fall asleep in bed.

The next day, Thomas opened his eyes and it could be seen that his mental state did not seem to be very good.

Huoxue's words kept appearing in his mind. I don't know why, but I can't erase them.

But there was no time to rest. There were still a large number of people waiting for food, patrol arrangements, and the adjustment of conflicts between the newly joined people...

He still had a lot of things to do.

For a sixth-level body, it was no big deal to not sleep for a night.

He glanced at the territory core in the room, then looked at the blood of disaster who continued to write and draw, and walked out of the room.

With the blood of disaster, there was no need to worry about the safety of the territory core.

The voices of people greeting him all the way.

"Good morning, Lord Thomas. I hope to meet more prey today."

"Toto... Lord Thomas, good morning!"

"Lord, you don't seem to be in good spirits. You don't seem to have slept well. Do you need me to make you a pillow? I guarantee your comfort."

"Although Lord, you are physically strong, you should also pay attention to rest."

Thomas responded to these greetings one by one.

Ah~

The tired spirit seemed to have been redeemed at this moment.

Some ideas were thrown into the corner of his mind.

How could they not be real life? They live to survive.

Soon Thomas left the protective shield area and walked into the fog.

Near the territory, a base without a protective shield was built.

Most of the people live in this area, relying on buildings to defend against the elusive beasts.

Thomas came to his office and first received the intelligence brought by the wanderers.

The battle in the central area became more and more intense. Insects, beasts, and humans, they fought each other like weapons without reason.

It has become a meat grinder, mountains have been flattened, rivers have been cut off, forests have been swallowed... I don't know how many people die every day.

Thomas frowned slightly.

The surrounding beasts can no longer feed all the people, but if the hunting range continues to expand, it is very likely to expose themselves.

The fog is not omnipotent, so be careful.

And there are fewer and fewer wanderers who can be found, so it seems that the action of accepting wanderers can be stopped.

At the same time, the description in the intelligence made him think of the words of the blood of disaster again.

‘They are like weapons without reason...’

‘Survival? Who? Your people? ’

However, Thomas quickly calmed down and did not intend to bring his emotions into the subsequent work.

He wrote down the various orders and asked his deputy to execute them.

Then Thomas took part of the armed forces of the territory to clean up the surrounding areas.

This was both hunting and protecting the safety of the people.

Fortunately, these beasts would appear every once in a while, as if they were automatically refreshed, otherwise they wouldand these people had already starved to death.

Soon a day passed, and as the night fell, Thomas returned to his room again.

Today's hunting situation was not good.

Fortunately, the war outside did not hit this remote corner.

Just when Thomas was about to take a good rest, Huoxue spoke again: "You seem to have the answer in your heart."

"Yes."

"Oh, congratulations."

Huoxue seemed to be thinking about some difficult questions. He did not write on the paper for a long time, but did not stop the conversation: "Escape is not shameful, and it is very useful."

Here it comes again.

This condescending attitude made Thomas unable to accept it.

"Enough! What is your purpose!"

Huoxue turned around and looked into Thomas' eyes, as if looking at his own projection in his eyes: "My purpose? I just don't want to see the self-satisfaction of a self-deceiving guy. You can pretend that I didn't say it."

Thoma didn't dare to continue looking at each other. This was not because he was afraid.

Not really!

Not really...

"Sleep."

Thoma lay on the bed and turned over.

But all the things that he deliberately left in the corner of his mind resurfaced again.

People who only perform certain repetitive behaviors.

Beasts that automatically refresh after a period of time.

No longer have a flesh and blood body.

......

It's like a program.

What is a program?

Why do I know this thing?

In Thomas' body, data, logic, and settings are intertwined.

Something special began to grow.

[Ding! Mission: Damage completion increased by 5%]

Huo Xue looked at the data on the panel, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

This mission finally showed obvious progress.

The completion of the advancement is not much, only 5%, but it is like a seed.

The seed of doubt.

Under the cultivation of time, the seed will slowly germinate.

Huo Xue, which can also be seen as fire blood, represents Chen Yi's two artistic conceptions.

Relying on the effect of [Mask of the God of Fraud].

Disguise: You can change your appearance, and the error in body shape cannot exceed 20%.

Combined with the masking technique.

It is not easy to find Chen Yike.

After the announcement sounded, contestant Yi went offline, and was replaced by an NPC - Huoxue.
