"Alright, even if you are more than 500 years old and are older than me, what about that?" Garen exhaled . "The key question now is, what are your plans for the future?"
"We will not have a future . " Six faintly closed his eyes . "I advise you to better leave this place immediately . Stay further away, then perhaps there would still be chance of living . "
"Can high radiation levels prevent their search?" Garen suddenly asked .
Six opened his eyes and gave a puzzled look .
"Don't you feel any difference in the environment here?" Garen smiled .
Only then did Six felt that something was amiss . The radiation concentration here was denser than that in the outside world, at least twice as much as outside .
Garen did not elaborate but let him sense the situation here quietly . He went out and started packing . High radiation concentration could indeed cut off various searching signals, but this was not certain . It could only extend time . The key now was to arrive as quickly as possible at the secret region where the Energy Machinists were located . That was where outsiders could never enter .
Six Divine Wind General had once saved his life . Repaying any debt of gratitude he owed was Garen's principle . It was impossible for him to give up and flee on his own . Therefore, the most urgent thing now was to prepare to leave as soon as possible .
The distance to Secret Region from here was not close .
He kept the Biochemical Pool away properly, took some food packs and placed them on two Big Wild Wolves .
East Perrin and the others from the top floor of the basement were waiting at the entrance of the second floor . They had already helped Garen packed some necessary equipment, such as a one-time toxin detection capsule, which was used to detect poison in water sources and food to identify whether they were consumable . They did not use it when they came here so it was given to Garen .
There were also some remaining low-radiation pieces of meat and water from the base . This was what Garen specifically wanted for Sixth Divine Wind General . He did not need it for himself .
In addition, some miscellaneous small things were also being packed by the crowd .
"You . . . really want to leave?" East Perrin approached him and asked in a low voice .
Garen signalled to Sinno to pick up the bundle and nodded .
"This time, all of you staying here must utilize the high radiation concentration to hide yourself . Do not expose yourself . The next Predator Wave will be more violent . Be careful . "
"Yes, we will . " East Perrin nodded . The rest of the people were in a tacit understanding and did not disturb the two . East Perrin liked Garen and everyone felt it . But now, she could not go with him .
Truth to be told, at the bottom of her heart, East Perrin wanted Garen to ask her, but…she could not leave behind these last few people of Leo City . There were also two children and she was the strongest powerhouse here . If she were to leave, their survival rate would be very low even with the Big Wild Wolves here . Moreover, them staying here was the best way as compared to going away with Garen . After all, there were many people in that Secret Region . Once the training method skill they acquire was exposed, it was hard to predict the consequences .
After carefully consideration, as long as this place was hidden properly, it was entirely possible to build a small, self-sufficient base in the hills . Living on for many years would not be a problem . It would be much safer to wait until years later when their training method had reached a certain level before going out again .
"Alright, Sinno . Let's go . " Garen patted East Perrin's shoulders . During this period of time here, he had successfully managed to avoid the threat of Predators by borrowing the strength of Leo City . Of course, he had also helped them to survive and preserved a remnant . As all good things must come to an end, it was time to leave now .
Sinno carried the bundle and walked behind Garen . They returned to the room where Sixth Divine Wind General was lying in and put him on a simple stretcher placed on the back of a Big Wild Wolf . Garen and Sinno each rode a Big Wild Wolf .
They headed towards the exit of the second floor of the basement .
Sixth Divine Wind General also saw this strange group of people . He was surprised that they were all doing fine in this area of high radiation level . However, the people's attention were all focused on Garen and Sinno .
The three people rode the Big Wild Wolf to the second floor . Others also followed to the second floor . Upon reaching the exit of the first floor, the basement slate was pushed upwards and the three Big Wild Wolves went out one after another . Their movements were slow and steady .
"Will you still come back?!" East Perrin suddenly shouted after Garen from behind .
Garen waved his hand .
"If it is destined . "
He went down along the hill . East Perrin and the party stood on top of the hill and looked down at Garen the three who were slowly descending . Malone clutched East Perrin's hand tightly .
"He is just a passer-by . This place is just a brief stopover in his life . We . . . are two different kinds of people . . . " Malone sighed . He had witnessed too many separations in his life . He was clear that although East Perrin had an excellent aptitude, she could only advance to the vertex of Level Five and at the most five . This was the limit in radiation belt . Without a Mech, even the strongest talents could not break into the resonance level . What was more, he had repeatedly checked that the aptitude limit of East Perrin was indeed at Level Five . This is a limitation by the genes .
About Garen's aptitude, he was not able to see through it . Although he did not check it, the future of Energy Machinist could only be known by the Energy Machinist themselves . From the look of Garen's various performances, Level Five would not be his end .
East Perrin looked at the three people below from far . The three Big Wild Wolves gradually could only be seen as little spots .
She felt a little melancholy . But with Garen gone, life had to go on still . She also had to lead the last remnant of Leo City to kick-start and regenerate into a new and stronger Leo City!
Fanny stood behind the two . Watching the firmly-forward moving Sinno, he sighed softly . He had always treated this girl as his own sister . Now that his sister was leaving, he could no longer continue to follow her back and protect her…
Pat .
One hand rested on his shoulder . The middle-aged woman, Shangrella looked at him with a comforting gaze .
"Sinno will live well, even better than us, because she followed Mr . Garen . "
Fanny nodded heavily and did not speak but only sighed deeply .
*********************
Night fell . A red moon hung in the sky . Beside it were two blue and white satellites that were smaller in size . They were releasing a faint light in the night sky .
On the grayish black grassland, the three persons rode the Big Wild Wolves and headed steadily towards a direction in the grassland .
The three Big Wild Wolves were arranged in an inverted-V formation . The one Garen rode was on the front . Sixth Divine Wind General was tied on a stretcher with a rope to prevent him from falling . However, the continuous undulating back of the Big Wild Wolf was not suitable for lying down, making him extremely uncomfortable .
Sinno's gaze was steady as she followed behind Garen . She was constantly alert of their surroundings and its movements .
The grey-black grassland looked endless . The wind blew through the grass from time to time and made a buzzing sound .
"Where do you want to go?" Six asked in a low voice, but the sound was clear enough for both to hear .
"Can't say for the time being, but you can be assured that I will do my best to protect you . " Garen answered without looking back . He was not only moving forward currently . At the same time, he was working on the calculations of Energy Machinist Level Four . Big Wild Wolf already had the direction to the destination in its mind . He only needed to sit firmly on its back .
"Was that Willpower transmission?" Garen noticed that the voice just now was unique .
Six nodded .
"This is a simple skill that can be used once Willpower achieve resonance skill . Some talented ones do not even need resonance level . " He sized up the Big Wild Wolf underneath his body . "You are also an Energy Machinist . I overlooked that . "
"This is the basic reconnaissance unit that I developed myself . How is it? Not bad, right?" Garen knew that the other party was well-informed and probably also knew much about Energy Machinists .
"I don't know much about your profession, but I have seen some reconnaissance cannon fodder creatures . Yours can sustain for a very long duration . As a reconnaissance force, it is almost the same as the regular Level One combat army unit . " Six nodded slightly and gave a good evaluation . "The speed of some Level One combat army unit, like the more powerful poisonous bees, eagles-type, or leopards-type, is just like yours . Combining with other qualities, this wolf can be considered as medium-low class of Level One . Considering it is only a reconnaissance unit, this is very good . "
"Oh? Just medium-low?" Garen looked back at him . "Then what's considered as medium and high class?"
"I have not come across many . Most of the Energy Machinists stay on their own sites . The average person would not provoke them . This group of people is known to be notoriously difficult to deal with . They deal with radiation a lot and are feared by many . Generally, they also won't randomly go to other pilots' places . " Six shook his head slightly . "But I've heard that only Level Four Energy Machinists are capable of creating the official combat army units . Official combat army units . The Level One combat army elite units developed by some Energy Machinists who took the elite path could fight with Level Two pilots . That is terrific . Some who took the group route are able to nurture a multi-headed combat unit . Their joint attack and array tactics are all very strong . If the same level Energy Machinists can hid properly, they would be invincible . If they can't win, they can flee and escape once the situation turns bad . "
Garen nodded . He had also found out about these from Mincar's internal network, but they were not as clear as Six's systematic description .
"Also, some Energy Machinists are part-time pilots . Although they are not strong, they are not without combat strength . Utilizing some group-influence props is of no problem . Of course, this kind of prop is expensive, but Energy Machinist is not a profession that lacks money," Six calmly said . "I can probably guess where you are headed . "
"Oh?"
"Is it Secret Region?"
Garen smiled and did not deny it .
"If it is Secret Region, indeed it is possible to avoid the other party's search . However, the premise is that we can get there . " Six looked up at the night sky . "They are here . "
Whoooom!!
A red meteor suddenly descended down from the sky and flew in the direction of Garen them three . Even though it was a few kilometres away, the powerful and terrible energy field was so apparent that Garen and Sinno could scarcely breathe .
"Inherited Level again!!" Garen's face stiffened . The last scene in which he was suppressed by Seventh Divine Wind General once again came to mind . In this moment, the situation was completely the same with back then, except that the place had changed to the grassland in radiation belt .
"It's Four…he is still a few kilometers away, He had only preliminary sensed my direction but hasn't really found me yet . Go quickly!" Sixth Divine Wind General calmly instructed .
