(I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, all the best, and a family reunion.) ）

――――――――――――――――

A few mercenaries slowly walked towards the earthen house.

The bomb took out a flashbang, looked at Ai Xiaohai, and then threw it violently.

These mercenaries are very well equipped, but unfortunately, most of them were left behind when they were chasing away from the scorpion just now.

Screams were heard from the earthen house, both men and women.

The minotaur and the cook quickly rushed in.

"Safety!"

After a while, the two men were thrown out by the minotaur and the cook.

Solidly threw out.

When he saw these two people clearly, the weapon in the mercenary's hand had been put down.

They didn't feel that these two men would pose much of a threat to them.

Fane. Feng. Professor Steiger and his wife, Emily. Steiger.

"Don't kill us, don't kill us!" Finn and Emily screamed with all their might.

All the mercenaries were full of curiosity, Abel's mercenary team was all dead, but this couple was unharmed?

Abel doesn't look like a guy who would sacrifice himself to save someone......

"Tell me, what's going on?" When Sergeant Damon died, Ai Xiaohai had truly become the leader of this mercenary team.

He was originally appointed by Vincent, and from the very beginning, he showed his great strength. Mercenaries will not be impressed by your rhetoric, only the strong will earn their respect. And Ai Xiaohai undoubtedly did this.

Finn finally came to his senses from his fright, and he knew the mercenaries he had met at Doz. A heart has also let go of a lot:

"Oh my God, it's you, that's great......"

"Listen, Professor." Ai Xiaohai said coldly: "We came out of Duzi together, and the purpose is the same. Now I have people dying here, and you have even more losses there. And out there, there's a lot of terrible stuff waiting for us, and to solve this dilemma, I want to hear the truth. ”

As soon as he heard "a lot of terrible things", Finn's face changed: "Yes. Of course I'll tell you everything I see. Everything was normal. But what changed when you entered the Set's exclusion zone...... I think you've seen the horrors of the Seth penalty area...... One by one, our men fell and died, and Abel was about to go crazy, but there was nothing he could do...... At last. Many, many monsters appeared. Densely packed. In the air. Abel died to cover us, along with his men...... Me and my wife. I finally got here, and I met you guys......"

It's similar to what Ai Xiaohai and they saw. Ai Xiaohai suddenly asked, "I'm very strange, why didn't you get bitten by a scorpion and were able to run here safely?" ”

"Thanks to Abel......" Professor Finn's face darkened, "they were desperate to protect us, shouting at us to leave. If it weren't for his sacrifice, we would now be two corpses......"

The explanation is completely reasonable, and Sergeant Damon did the same.

Ai Xiaohai smiled: "Professor, madam, why are you still lying on the ground?" The desert nights are very cold, get up, they won't hurt you......"

He gestured to the mercenaries, then reached out and grabbed Professor Finn.

"Thank you......"

Professor Fein had only said two words before he heard Ai Xiaohai say, "Of course they won't hurt you, but I will!" ”

After speaking, Ai Xiaohai gave Professor Fein a slap hard!

That's right, it was a very loud slap in the face!

Professor Finn's glasses were knocked off and half of his face was swollen, Emily let out a scream again and ran to her husband's side: "No, you can't treat him like that, he's a professor!" ”

"I know he's a professor, and I respect him very much." Ai Xiaohai went to help Professor Fein pick up the glasses and handed them to him: "As a professor, we should be more honest, especially in our current environment. Professor, wear your glasses. ”

Professor Fein took the glasses with trembling hands, and he was so trembling that he had to rely on his wife's help to put them on.

"Now, you can tell me how the hell managed to escape the scorpion......" Ai Xiaohai asked unhurriedly.

"It's really ......" Finn swallowed back in the middle of his words, because he saw Ai Xiaohai's hand again......

"Well, I'll be honest," he said, "I actually noticed the strangeness of the desert early on, and when those monsters appeared, I dastardly left Abel, and even ...... I even pushed a mercenary in front of me to buy us time, and I will be punished......"

He's already told all the despicable things he's done...... Already the mercenaries showed disdain......

Although they are not all the way to Abel's mercenary team, and even have great conflicts, it is really contemptible to frame other people's lives to save themselves.

Ai Xiaohai smiled, and the smile was frightening: "Minotaur, cook." Please catch Mrs. Steiger. ”

Although they didn't know what the raptor was going to do, the minotaur and the cook grabbed the professor's wife one by one.

"You...... What do you want to do? ”

Ai Xiaohai still said slowly in that unhurried tone: "Throw the professor's wife out!" ”

"What?" Not just the professor, but everyone called out.

Throw it out? What's out there? It's a huge scorpion hidden under the sand! Throw it out, and it means that there is no chance of survival!

"No, no! Don't do it! Finn and Emily screamed at the same time.

However, as a mercenary, you must resolutely carry out orders, even if they have doubts about such orders! Without hesitation, the minotaur and the cook picked up Emily and walked out.

Emily struggled desperately, but how could her strength withstand two strong mercenaries?

Of course, Ai Xiaohai wouldn't really kill her, but he knew very well that Fein was still lying there! Even if he could really use mercenaries to sacrifice for himself. But can he outrun a scorpion with a woman?

He must be hiding some secret...... And the name made him sacrifice his reputation......

"Wait, wait, I say!" Seeing that Emily had been dragged to the city gate and was about to be thrown out, Finn finally cried out in despair.

Ai Xiaohai stopped his subordinates' movements: "Professor, you still have one last chance." If I find out you're still lying, I promise I'll throw your wife to the monsters before I kill you. Whatever secrets you want to keep, I will always accompany you to the earth...... Night. Raise your gun. Listen to my orders and get ready to shoot! ”

The muzzle of the night was aimed at Professor Finn......

Finn was already terrified of the young man in front of him, and there was even a hint of despair in his tone: "My wife and I were able to escape from the monsters because I carried something with me......"

He shuddered and untied a pendant from his neck: "This is it, so that the monster does not dare to come near us......"

It was something that looked a lot like a bullet. It's just transparent. There were some strange objects flashing inside. Pale green with a few hints of gold. This stuff is not like a liquid. It's not like gas either...... And like ...... Legendary ghosts!

Ai Xiaohai's heart moved.

He took the "bullet" pendant, and when he touched it, he almost let out a lament...... This...... This is simply spiritual power!

Oh, my God. It is basically the same as his own physical strength, but there are some faint differences in spiritual power!

Ai Xiaohai didn't know whether to cry or laugh, to be honest, it was the first time he had seen the spiritual power leaving his body so truly.

It was the spiritual power that saved Professor Fein and his wife? There is such a thing in the body between them! With such a little spiritual power, can he actually protect the Finns from harm? Ai Xiaohai was a little puzzled.

Perhaps seeing Ai Xiaohai's doubts, Finn hurriedly said: "It was really this thing that saved us, I found it in my grandfather's relics." In his last words, my grandfather said, 'When the creatures that have exterminated civilization come, this little bullet will be able to preserve the last hope of mankind'...... God, trust me anyway, even though I don't know what the hell is stored in it! ”

"When the creatures of extinct civilization arrive, this little bullet will be able to preserve the last hope of humanity"?

Ai Xiaohai suddenly thought of another paragraph:

“…… Satan sows the seeds of evil, and human civilization will disappear there......"

That's the Balwin riddle!

Could it be that the riddle refers to the extinction of human civilization is this kind of scorpion?

No, the scorpion should only operate in the Sett exclusion zone, otherwise, there would have been reports of this creature for a long time. Balwin's meaning is supposed to be that once you step into the Sett exclusion zone, the terrible scorpion will take human life.

Seth is a legendary evil ~ god in the desert, and in Balwin's eyes, he is Satan! Those scorpions are left here by Satan!

"Your grandfather was Balwin?" Ai Xiaohai finally asked this question.

Professor Fein nodded with difficulty, it seemed that he was not prepared to hide anything anymore: "Yes, my grandfather is Balwin. At that time, after Rommel's mission, he went into hiding under the pseudonym 'Durgo' and managed to evade interrogation after the end of the Second World War......"

Finn knew that he had to tell everything he knew in such a situation, because nothing seemed to be able to hide it from the demonic young man in front of him......

Balwin, who was tasked with Rommel, managed to hide 36 gold chests, and he was supposed to go back to report immediately after the mission. But for some unknown reason, the once loyal Balwin actually disappeared.

Rommel did not find him, and the Allies were not able to find him......

It was Professor Fein who found him.

He received from his father "Durgo", a relic left by Balwin: a "bullet" pendant, and a long, long letter. In this letter, Fein finally learned what terrible things had happened to his grandfather......

The first half of the letter is what Ai Xiaohai had heard, how Balwin accepted Rommel's assignment, but the rest was ......

Balwin's team crossed the Sett exclusion zone, and at that time, he didn't believe in the legends of the Land of the Dead. They came to the location of the treasure and succeeded in hiding the treasure. While the soldiers were busy there, Balwin took out something and played with it in his hands:

It was a bullet-like pendant, and this was the "Z" element that Professor Ram had successfully isolated, and after conducting the experiment, Professor Ram gave it to Balwin. But at that time, Balwin would never have imagined that it was this little thing that would soon save his life.

The team of hidden treasures returned, but they never dreamed that they would embark on a journey to death......

There is always a reason for things, in fact, when they stepped into the Seth penalty area, there were already some signs:

In the sky above the desert, because of the arrival of these humans, lightning was actually swept and thunder sounded.

However, no one noticed this at the time. (To be continued......)
