Chapter 123: Confession

Then the electric mouse looked at Liu Cheng and the others and said:

"Of course, the two of us have been with you three for more than a year, and this friendship will never be forgotten.

But we are really tired, and I ask you three to forgive me for saying goodbye to the doctor. "

Fu Yan and Tian Tian smiled and said it was okay, but Liu Cheng fell silent.

Liu Cheng watched the people he had known over the past year die and leave, and he couldn't help but begin to think about the meaning and reasons for his continued stay.

Unlike Song Ziming and Fu Yan, I did not join the army for noble goals such as glory and protecting mankind.

His purpose was pure from the beginning, simply to obtain a high salary from the special operations force to subsidize his father's medical expenses.

However, this purpose was accomplished within a few months after he accidentally discovered that he could dissect star core fragments from the corpses of alien creatures.

Although my current assets cannot be said to be a millionaire, I still have no problem allowing my family to live a comfortable life.

Unable to figure out the meaning of continuing to stay in the army, Liu Cheng couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Electric Rat and the Doctor thought Liu Cheng was unhappy because of their departure, so they stepped forward to hug Liu Cheng one by one, comforting him and saying:

"Liu Cheng, don't worry, although you were a disabled person at the beginning, your efforts have been recognized by all of us.

You will definitely make more new friends. "

“If you pass by our star field, don’t forget to come find us.

I'll treat you to a drink then! "

After saying goodbye to the two of them, Liu Cheng and the four returned to their respective rooms, but Liu Cheng was stopped by Song Ziming on the way.

"Liu Cheng, come with me, I want to talk to you."

Liu Cheng roughly understood what Song Ziming wanted to talk about.

After all, Song Ziming wanted to talk to him when he came back from the mine, but was interrupted by a sudden wave of beasts.

The two entered the rest cabin where Liu Cheng was located. Song Ziming closed the door and made sure that no one could eavesdrop.

Song Ziming was the first to speak:

"Liu Cheng, you must have already guessed what I want to talk to you about, right?

Tell me, what is the original superpower you concealed?

Why can you have so many star core fragments? "

I know my abilities very well, and the target that the eight-legged insect is looking for will definitely not be me.

Therefore, the other party's target can only be you.

What kind of secret do you possess that would attract the attention of a supernatural creature with such terrifying abilities? "

Liu Cheng thought for a while, bowed to Song Ziming, and said:

"Captain, first of all, I want to thank you for hiding my powers in front of the regiment commander."

When Li Ronghao asked the two of them before, Song Ziming glanced at Liu Cheng and did not reveal his suspicions about Liu Cheng.

Song Ziming was noncommittal, and Liu Cheng continued:

“I did hide my ability, but I didn’t even know about it at first.

Later, after learning about the specific abilities he possessed, he realized the terrible consequences this ability could bring, so he kept it secret. "

Song Ziming said:

"I'm curious, Liu Cheng, you are not a person who doesn't know right from wrong.

Since that ability allows you to hide it until now, you must have your own considerations.

But you know me, I'm a typical soldier.

To me, the safety of the government and humanity comes above all else.

If I can protect the former, I would rather not have the honor of being a soldier.

Your ability to conceal it didn't matter before, I could still turn a blind eye.

Now that the eight-legged insect and the safety of all mankind are involved, I have to reconsider your matter.

Of course, you can continue to choose not to say anything, and I won’t force you.

But in that case, I must report your concealment of abilities to the Corps Commander. "

Liu Cheng was silent. He had to tell the regiment commander. What's the difference between forcing him on me?

He immediately said:

"Captain, if I tell you my initial superpower, will you be willing to keep it a secret for me?"

Song Ziming said:

"Then it depends on whether your ability will threaten the safety of all mankind."

"What if there is no threat?"

"In that case, I am willing to keep your secret."

Liu Chengdao:

"You swear?"

Song Ziming raised three fingers on his remaining hand and said with a serious expression:

"I swear by my brother's spirit in heaven."

Liu Cheng nodded, he knew Song Ziming as a person.

Since the other party had sworn a promise, it was impossible for him to break his promise, so he said slowly:

"My superpower can roughly purify the object it is applied to."

Song Ziming recalled the scene of Liu Cheng extracting toxins from wounds during the battle at the regiment headquarters, and asked with some confusion:

“I have indeed never heard of this type of supernatural ability.

But if you just purify it, how can you be so conservative about this ability? "

Liu Cheng explained:

“If it’s just about purifying substances, there’s nothing.

But besides objects, I can also purify energy! "

Song Ziming thought for a moment, then seemed to understand, and said in surprise:

"You mean, who are your star core fragments?"

Liu Cheng affirmed:

"Yes, those star core fragments are all the energy essence extracted from the bodies of alien creatures when I dissected them."

Song Ziming was shocked when he heard this, and immediately understood why Liu Cheng had been hiding his purified superpower.

If Liu Cheng could really extract star core energy from the bodies of alien creatures.

Maybe it will become an energy cash machine for some high-ranking people, trapped in the endless process of extracting the corpses of alien creatures.

What's more, Liu Cheng might even be forced to dissect the corpse of a person with supernatural powers.

Song Ziming nodded and said:

"I understand, you really should keep this ability of yours a secret.

Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. How many people know about your supernatural ability now? "

Liu Chengdao:

"Three, you, me and Tian Tiantian."

Song Ziming was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile:

"That little girl Tian Tiantian seems to have always liked you. We can all see it, and you must also be able to see it, right?

Don't you have any ideas? "

Liu Cheng scratched his head in embarrassment and said:

"I know she likes me, but I never thought about emotional matters."

Song Ziming asked curiously:

"You're probably still a virgin, aren't you?"

Liu Cheng didn't speak, his expression was awkward, and he acquiesced.

Song Ziming stopped joking with Liu Cheng and said:

"But now, maybe a fourth person knows about your supernatural ability?"

Liu Cheng was startled and asked:

"Who else?"

Song Ziming pointed at the back of Liu Cheng's neck and said:

"Do you remember when you were attacked by that eight-legged insect in the mine?

If the other party can really extract your memory, the puppets hidden at the top must also know your abilities.

The body structure of alien creatures is stronger than that of us humans, and they are not afraid that when they absorb the energy of other species, they will be counterattacked by the impurities in the bodies of other species.

There are even some alien creatures that become stronger by constantly devouring the energy of other species.

Therefore, for the sake of the safety of all mankind, you cannot expose your abilities at will.

You should also seize every opportunity to make yourself stronger quickly.

At least you have enough ability to protect yourself when that eight-legged bug comes to you again! "
