Chapter 247: The Last Place

Among the many film and television works, the U.S. military and law enforcement agencies are very powerful. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 InfoA variety of advanced high-tech equipment and an endless stream of top professionals make them look as if they are from an alien planet. But in reality, it is not so exaggerated in real reality.

I don't know it in the military, but at least among the law enforcement agencies in various places, it is absolutely impossible to get to the point where satellites and reconnaissance planes can be dispatched in a case-by-case manner.

As for the heartbeat detector, there is no life detector or anything. Hundreds of mobilized local police and militia members used the most primitive method to pull out the blockade line on foot and search through the vast forested area.

Connecticut is located in the northern high latitudes, and the trees here are mostly tall evergreen trees, such as pine, teak, etc. Because there is not much fallen leaves, and human activities are relatively frequent, there is no thick sediment on the ground here, so it is more convenient to walk. However, for these law enforcement officers, no one wants to be aimlessly searching in such a place.

"Agent Thomas." The head of a local police officer came to Thomas's side: "This wooded area is too big for us to find people." No one knows where they will go, and it will take at least thousands of people to search such a large area of forest. ”

Even in this environment, Thomas, who was still wearing a long trench coat, glanced at the local policeman next to him who was covered in pine balls: "Experts have carefully analyzed the environment here, although the scope of this forest area is large, but there are not many places that can really provide human activities. Many places are impassable due to the influence of swampy lakes. The places I need to search are not as big as I thought. And they can't live here forever, they need something to eat, drink, and use, so they must leave here and return to civilization. ”

Normally, there is nothing wrong with Thomas's words. After all, it is almost impossible for modern humans to live in the wild. Not to mention ordinary people, even Bei Ye, who claims to be at the top of the food chain, has a large logistics team behind him to support him.

Modern humanity has degenerated, and there is no longer the strength that once stood out from the crowd. Humans are no longer able to adapt to life in the wild, they no longer have that ability.

"Are those all police?" Next to a huge pine tree deep in the swamp, Xu Xian looked through the lush trees and asked in a low voice as he looked into the distance as he stretched out a long line along the edge of the swamp.

"It's not." Promise narrowed his eyes, "Those are militiamen. ”

The United States is a federal country, and each state has its own militia. These paramilitant groups spend their days hunting in the mountains and forests, practicing marksmanship, and having barbecues. However, when something really happens, it will turn into a supplementary armed force. This is when this hunt for felons comes in.

"Let's go." Xu Promise looked at the heavily armed militiamen from afar, and he had no intention of fighting these paramilitaries.

At this time, Xu Yu and Xu Xian were in a place with swamps on all sides and a small piece of dry flat land in the middle. The surrounding swamp made it impossible for the militia and the police to think that anyone would be able to wade through the swamp. The tall arbor forest also blocked everyone's gaze, and no one noticed that their target was hidden in what they thought was impossible.

"Be careful, it's not as quiet as it seems." Although it avoided the crowds for the time being, this seemingly peaceful swamp was not as safe as expected. He had promised to use teleportation to carry Seo Hyun across the swamp directly, but there was also danger hidden in it.

Xu Promise led the way with an unusually sharp ****** in his hand, and from time to time some dangerous fellows would emerge from the dense grass here.

'Huh~' The ****** in Xu Promise's hand shook up suddenly, the cold light swept by, and a hideous snake head with sharp teeth fell from the grass on the side.

Connecticut is located far north, and although there are snakes, they are mostly non-venomous. However, after taking NCT-48, he was able to tell that the snake was venomous by the monstrous triangular snake's head.

"It seems that the Grim Reaper has begun to do everything." Xu Promise shook his head slightly, the poisonous snakes that should not have appeared in this kind of place have all come out, and it seems that as time goes by, the Grim Reaper has also begun to intensify its offensive.

"What's wrong with you?" Promise didn't hear a response from behind him, and turned to see what was going on. was stunned to find that Xu Xian was holding his shoulders with both hands, hanging his head like an ostrich and trembling all over.

"Snakes, there are snakes." Seo Hyun, who had his eyes closed tightly, was even trembling in his voice. Women are naturally terrified of this terrifying-looking reptile.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Xu Promise smiled, took Xu Xian's hand and continued to walk through the grass.

The Grim Reaper has begun to do whatever it takes to destroy the promise. In addition to the usual snake attacks, walking in the woods can cause heavy pine cones and broken branches to fall from the sky. From time to time, something dangerous would pop out of the grass on the ground.

Ordinary people have little ability to resist in the midst of such a continuous crisis. But promise can turn all dangers into dangers.

After walking a long distance, the two finally came to a large clearing deep in the woods. There may be some special minerals in the ground here, and hundreds of square meters of ground are dry and hard soil, with only a few weeds growing in between. It is surrounded by large trees that are tens of meters high, and the environment is very secluded.

"This is it." Xu Xu looked around carefully and nodded. A large bag of lime powder and sulfur was taken out of the storage space and carefully spread along the edge of the clearing, "If there are no accidents, we will wait here for the mission to end." ”

The environment is definitely very remote. Surrounded by swamps, almost all outside interference is cut off, and the danger here is kept to a minimum due to skill and meticulous preparation. In the Promised Understanding, the Grim Reaper should be like a ring that cannot directly project energy into the material world, and they both require a certain medium.

In the woods surrounded by this empty swamp, in a flat field deep in the woods, Promise had minimized all possible external dangers. This also makes it more difficult for the Reaper, as it needs a nearby medium to make a move on the promise.

Xu Yu took out the blanket and spread it on the ground, sat down directly and patted the position next to him. After Xu Xian sat down beside him, his eyes moved slightly, and he said with a smile, "Time is running out, I won't sleep until I leave this world." You have a good rest, everything is with me. I promised you to take you home, and I'll do what I say. ”

In the past, it was promised that when he was in the city, he would collect geographical information about the neighborhood through newspapers, the Internet, news media, and other channels. He was able to find this place thanks to the TV media, and he saw a report on it in a program, which made him decide to spend his last days here.

When I applied for the certificate before, I promised to buy some lime powder and sulfur, so that I could use it at this time. Moreover, there is one last resort left for the promise, that is, once the danger is too much to resist, then he will teleport directly back to New York City. However, the distance to New York is not close, and I promise to rest as much as possible to ensure my mental strength.

It was getting darker, and it was another futile day. Hundreds of police and militiamen who had been trekking through the empty woods all day without any success were in no good mood.

Deep in the woods, next to a pine tree that was unusually thick and needed to be surrounded by several people, a tall figure wearing a dark trench coat and a hat with a high collar suddenly appeared, and the face was completely visible.

Dark, inky eyes looked at the policemen in the distance who had begun to return to the camp in the sunset, and then looked up at a helicopter in the sky.

Singh is an immigrant of Indian descent who was able to get a good job with the Connecticut Police Department because of his higher education. He was a helicopter pilot who was flying a light police helicopter in the vast woods today to search for the whereabouts of the suspect, but found nothing. Now it's his third time in the air and ready to return.

'Di Di Di ~~~' Suddenly there was a shrill siren sound in the **********, and the control system began to have problems, and the helicopter rushed out to the left, and Singh was suddenly in turmoil.

Flying a helicopter can be very dangerous, and if you are not careful, you can crash and die, especially if the aircraft breaks down.

Singer's eyes were full of despair as he desperately pulled the lever, and the helicopter whistled and whined to the left, seeing that it was about to crash into the trees. Just as Singh opened his mouth to shout that the gods would bless him, his helicopter suddenly miraculously recovered.

The plane regained its balance, and even the sirens of a mechanical failure dissipated.

Shouting, Singh raised his hand to wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead and steered the plane to prepare for the return flight. Because of the previous malfunction, his flight altitude at this time was very low, almost to the extent of grazing the treetops. I casually glanced outside the cabin, but I was stunned to find that there seemed to be something in a clearing surrounded by trees in the distance?

After careful observation, Singh was suddenly excited, there were actually two people in the open space over there!

Although he was not sure that he was the suspect, Singh excitedly recorded the coordinates and hurried back. He was already scared by the previous accident.

Xu Promise narrowed his eyes, and a gleam burst from his gaze as he looked at the helicopter in the distance. A cold snort came out of his nostrils, and he lowered his gaze to look at the girl who had fallen asleep with her head on her lap. Raising his hand to caress the girl's black hair, his face was calm, not happy or sad. (To be continued.) )
