The intense kiss between Tom and Lin Meiqi did not last long, and in the end, when Lin Meiqi took the initiative to turn over and suppress Tom's desire for further intimacy, he was stopped by Tom.
After experiencing several ups and downs, life and death, Tom's original reserve and concerns have all been let go. Now is the end of the world, where too many people have died. To continue, humans need to strengthen reproduction. And the previous set of monogamy, as Yue Zhenbang said, is no longer the only moral standard.
Lin Meiqi likes him, and Shen Jiayi also loves him. Even Yue Shanshan is in love with him, it's okay. As long as everyone coordinates well, why not? Living in the present and uniting emotions is the most necessary criterion for the apocalypse.
However, even if Lin Meiqi wanted to go further, it was not in front of everyone, so he stopped the enthusiastic girl, stood on the shoulder of the Sea King's armor, and greeted the people below, receiving responses from many members of the ark. Of course, there were also some survivors who joined after Tom left, but he often heard people talking about Tom's situation.
On the other hand, the morale of the soldiers who surrendered to Haiwei Mini Industry was a bit low, but this is also normal. After all, there is a big battle between the two sides, and even with the guarantee of the legendary Tom, it may not be absolutely safe.
The remnants of the battlefield need to be cleaned up, but it is not urgent. The top priority is to treat the wounded on both sides, restrain the dead, and gather the surrendered soldiers for detention.
The Ark has a personnel screening and detention process, and it is impossible to allow them to move freely inside the Ark until they are able to distinguish between genuine surrender, hypocrisy, and those that need to be cleared.
Tom doesn't need to worry about these things, all he needs to do is greet a few familiar brothers first.
The first one to fly over was Tom's earliest companion, the gecko biscuit. With the help of Xiao Jingtian, it mutated into the shape of a flying dragon, not only growing a pair of wings that could fly, but also being able to spray high-temperature flames from its mouth.
After being separated for a long time, it always followed Tom's demands, followed Shen Jiayi's side, obeyed her orders, and participated in battles time and time again.
Now reunited again, Cookie affectionately pounced on Tom, almost knocking him down. With a warm tongue constantly licking his face, it was incredibly passionate.
On this side, Ouyang Haotian and Xiaomei are both drivers of the Sea King Giant Armor. Among them, the upper body driver is a big boy named Ding Yi. Tom only found out after asking this question that he is Ding Hongbo's younger brother, no wonder he looks familiar.
Ding Yi's power enhancement ability is very strong, and he also has talent in the operation of giant armor. His brother was the previous Sea King pilot to replace Tom, but he died in a half man, half wolf dog battle of the Alien Gang. Under the grief of Ding Yi, his ability was greatly awakened, and he voluntarily applied for an assessment to inherit his brother's will and pilot the giant armor to protect the people of the Ark.
In addition to the members of the Sea King, there are naturally combat troops below, with Wang Zixiong still leading the way. This former civil servant, due to his strong martial arts skills, has continuously grown in the post apocalyptic battles and possesses superb combat skills. He is also the commander of the Ark armed combat group.
Beside him was his sturdy and tall woman Liu Qi, Liu Lian's sister-in-law, but one of Prince Xiong's two lovers.
As soon as he met Tom, Wang Zixiong regained his usual smiling demeanor and respectfully shouted "Big Boss", leaving a cadre behind stunned.
When did a regimental leader who is not talkative and has strong combat power even have moments of bowing his brows and pleasing his eyes?
The captain of the Combat Armor Brigade is Pan Xun, whose armor combat talent is still ranked among the top in the Ark. As a combat soldier in the former security department of the Hemingway Mini Industry, when Tom piloted the Sea King to break through the shelter, his armor team was the first to turn to the dark. However, he was not looked down upon by the people of the Ark, and was even chosen by Tom as the partner of the Ant Armor.
As soon as he saw Tom, he immediately burst into tears and burst into tears, shouting, "Captain, I haven't left anyone behind, and I haven't left any brothers to run away since then."
When he was resisting the mutated wolf dog attack of the alien gang with Tom's partner, the upper part of the male ant armor where Tom was located was bitten by the wolf dog. In order to avoid the lower part of the armor dragging the ark away, Tom resolutely separated the lower part of Pan Xun's body with metal shaping, allowing him to leave with the ark. He chose to self destruct and drag the wolf dog.
This incident made Pan Xun very self blaming. He always believed that Tom had escaped and was a timid person. No matter how others tried to persuade him, it was useless. In the end, Shen Jiayi talked to him for a few words and told him, "Tom will come back. After he comes back, you need to tell him with your achievements that Pan Xun did not leave any brothers to escape." This helped him overcome the setback.
In order to fulfill this promise, he always takes the lead in every battle and is often the last to retreat. His heroic performance was unanimously recognized by everyone, and he was eventually awarded the position of captain of the Ark Armored Brigade by Shen Jiayi.
Now, seeing Tom, he can finally submit a clear answer sheet.
Wang Zixiong nodded heavily on the side, patted Pan Xun's shoulder, and said to Tom, "Boss, Pan Xun is very brave in every battle, and has inspired and saved many survivors by following your example. Nearly half of the new recruits who are participating in the battle now are modeled after him."
Looking at the unfamiliar faces behind Pan Xun with a hint of fanaticism, Tom felt a bit unreal. The once despised wanderer has suddenly become the idol of a group of people, but it's still a bit unreal to think of.
He wanted to deny or evade, but at this moment, Luo Xuan walked over and hugged his arm, sweetly saying, "My brother Tom has been taking care of me since I was very young and has always been a great hero in my heart. Now, more and more people are realizing this about you, isn't it great?"
Feeling the encouraging gaze of his sister, he knew he should be confident at this moment, not only to establish prestige for Pan Xun and others, but also to make the whole Ark more united, so that he could continue to live in this perilous and shrinking apocalypse.
After giving a brief speech to everyone, Xiaomei led their siblings into the Ark and left it for Wang Zixiong and others to organize personnel for post disaster work.
In the car, Xiaomei gently reminded Tom, "We were targeted by the outsiders shortly after leaving the Gate of the World. Later, we found that the army at the shelter was catching up and engaged in a fight. The situation was not good. In response to their attack, the acting captain had not closed his eyes for more than 60 hours and had been commanding the bridge. He also maintained his super computing ability for a long time, which was very laborious."
Luo Xuan jokingly said, "It seems that my other sister-in-law is also a workaholic. She is a good match for you, brother. That mixed race girl just now was a bit young."
At this moment, Lin Meiqi still had to sort out some data left by the fusion of the Bone Transformation and the Sea King just now, so she didn't follow in. If she heard the straightforward Luo Xuan, she didn't know what kind of argument to have with this demonic woman.
The car drove all the way, passing through three checkpoints, each heavily armed. It seems that the security work inside the Ark has not been relaxed due to the big battle outside. This is very good, and the situation with the Endeavour was the same before. Because both the Ark and the Endeavour were too large, it was difficult to prevent the enemy from secretly invading. If during a major battle outside, all personnel were transferred, and once the internal command center was beheaded, the situation would be very dangerous.
According to Xiaomei's introduction, the internal security work of the Ark is handled by two separate departments, namely the Combat Legion, and is named the New Special Investigation Department. The person in charge is the former Special Investigation Department No. 28. The Special Investigation Department is Shen Jiayi's personal escort unit in Haiwei Mini Industry. Due to Shen Liansheng's sudden incident, most of the soldiers in the Special Investigation Department were killed or arrested, and only some who were responsible for peripheral work and were dispersed survived.
These people were able to find the Ark and rejoin Shen Jiayi's command, so they naturally took on her security work again. However, this time Shen Jiayi gave them the authority to be responsible for the safety of the entire Ark, not just her alone.
It's sad to say that the highest commander of the Special Investigation Department is No. 1, who serves as the overall commander of the armed military in the shelter. When Shen Liansheng launched a coup, he dispatched a large number of elite troops to attack No.1 in the command center, resulting in the death of more than fifty soldiers before killing No.1 and several adjutants.
On the other hand, No. 2 was conducting a search for Tom outside and was attacked by members of the security department on a certain day. Only he was seriously injured and saved by other survivors. However, those survivors were attacked and captured by mutated humans led by Zhang Meng, and ultimately rescued by Tom.
After recovering, No. 2 naturally took on the safety work of Shen Jiayi. However, after Tom went missing, the Ark was ambushed by an outsider gang. No. 2 eventually collapsed outside the bridge gate and defended Shen Jiayi, whom he and his comrades swore to protect with their own lives.
Afterwards, his deputy took over his baton on the 28th and became the head of the new special investigation department.
The members of the New Special Investigation Department are all old acquaintances who have come out of the shelter, and even several of them are from the old medical camp, which can be said to be very responsible and loyal. After recognizing Tom, they also waited for his passage to be verified before bowing and paying tribute to the war god who had once saved the old medical camp.
All the way to the bridge, Tom opened the door and saw a tall and imposing figure in a white uniform. Looking back, it was the familiar and unfamiliar face of Shen Jiayi that Tom remembered.
The once icy beauty and unsmiling female captain, now with a sweet smile on her tired face, turned around and began to pounce. Tom quickly welcomed her and hugged her.
"You finally came back, my Anshi."
"Hmm! I'm back, you've worked hard."
The other people inside the bridge looked sideways, they had not seen the expression on Shen Jiayi's cold face for too long, and almost all of them regarded her as a robot. Now that happy smile made them remember that their acting captain was also a little woman who needed a man's love.
"I'll take care of this house for you, it's not hard, I..." Shen Jiayi didn't finish her sentence, and Tom had already taken the initiative to seal her mouth.
Happiness came too suddenly, and the dull Tom even took the initiative to kiss himself?
This surprised Shen Jiayi a lot, but in the next moment, she didn't care about these things. At this moment, she was just waiting for her beloved to come back and finally achieve her wish. All she needed to do was enjoy this moment.
