Chapter Thirty-Six: The Nine Ways of Retreat
The roaring continued for nearly two minutes before stopping, and if Anna hadn't had any accidents, they would have followed the bats towards them.
"We need to hurry up."
Wood wouldn't have let the little girls go his way if there was any other way to get in touch with them, but now he had no other way to contact them, and instead of letting them scurry around like headless flies, he would let them join him first, and then return to the gathering place together.
"Speed up?"
Katagiri was a little puzzled, and before she could ask, she saw that Wood had already squatted in front of her, directly grabbed her little hand, and carried it on her back: "Hold it tight." ”
Wood reminded him, and he didn't care about explaining to Katagiri, and as soon as his legs were bent, the whole person squatted down, and his muscles rubbed against each other.
Bang –
The moment a loud explosion sounded, Wood's figure ejected like a rocket, and the speed was extremely fast, and the little Katagiri only felt a sharp wind like a knife in his face, and everything around him became distorted.
In the previous position, a huge depression about a meter long and wide appeared, and even the edges of the depression were covered with spider silk cracks.
So fast!
Katagiri's little face was full of shock.
As he continues to suck blood, Wood's physical fitness is also evolving, and his mastery of vampire abilities is becoming stronger and stronger.
And the vampire's various abilities are gradually awakening, and Wood can vaguely feel that he still has many special abilities that have not been explored.
On the street, Wu Biao's figure turned into an afterimage, and every time he landed, he would rush out dozens of meters, but after a glance, he frowned slightly after seeing the pain on Katakiri's face behind him.
immediately controlled the blood mist around Katagiri's body, which made Katagiri feel a lot better.
In less than 20 minutes, Wood had reached the edge from the center of Osaka Castle and jumped over the Self-Defense Forces without stopping.
With the extreme speed and the darkness of the night, the Self-Defense Forces in charge of guarding only saw a flash of darkness.
"Something seems to have passed?"
"What nonsense are you talking about."
"But ......"
"Don't do it, let's pay attention to these chaotic people in front of us, and we can go to rest when the armored car comes over."
“……”
Wood walked all the way, but he didn't know that in front of him, there were many people who had already set up their positions, waiting for him to enter the big net.
On the edge of the 5th arrondissement, on the outskirts of a desolate spot neatly stacked with a large number of containers.
This is a type of warehouse and is known as a rental warehouse. After the Great War 10 years ago, many people started their businesses by simply placing containers in open spaces. However, there are no so-called goods in these warehouses, but teams of police officers gathered, and there are hundreds of people as far as the eye can see.
Compared with the Self-Defense Forces, the number of these civilian police officers may be only a fraction of a percent, but in terms of combat effectiveness alone, the Self-Defense Forces, which do not have all kinds of high-firepower weapons, are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered in front of these civilian police.
And in a container in the center, these instruments are stacked.
Kujou Shingen sat on a chair in the container, holding a glass of red wine, and his face was faintly expectant.
"President Kujo, the cell phone signal source is rapidly coming in our direction, but the speed is ......."
The scientist in the white coat pointed to the screen, his face full of uncertainty, only to see a red dot on the screen moving at a rapid speed, and the surrounding map was rapidly changing, and it had already rushed to the center of the second district.
“…… If they keep up this pace, they will reach us in about two hours. ”
Kujou Shingen nodded, signaling that he understood.
"President, do we need to inform Qiwu Xuanzong, if it is really that masked man, he didn't die under the missile bombardment, I'm worried about ......" Vice President Shibasaki on the side had a worried face.
Although he still hasn't figured out what the other party is, he knows the power of that kind of air-to-ground missile, even if the stage three proto-intestinal creatures are hit head-on by the missile, they can easily kill, but the other party survives that kind of bombardment.
He was very skeptical that his own police officers would be able to intercept the other party, knowing that the requested support had not yet come down, except for the police in charge of guarding the IISO branch, most of their combat strength was gathered here.
"Even if you inform Qi Wu Xuanzong, it is useless, he is the head of Osaka District, and he pays more attention to the foundation he has built little by little than revenge, and will only choose to give priority to calming public opinion in Osaka District. Not to mention...... If Wood is really the Masked Man, what he has in his hands must be in the hands of our IISO. ”
Kujou Shingen's face became solemn: "If I guess correctly, the other party must have a method in his hand that can reduce the marginal line of the erodence rate of the original intestinal virus, if this method is obtained by Qiwu Xuanzong, the IISO will no longer be needed in Osaka District, and you and I may both die in the hands of that old thing." ”
"Ways to reduce the rate of enterovirus erosion?"
Vice President Shibasaki's eyes widened, and his expression was full of disbelief: "This is impossible, the whole world is studying ways to reduce the erosion rate of the original enterovirus, and after so many years, there is no way to reduce it except for delayed inhibitors." ”
"I investigated the information about Anna, and the erosion rate of her last test three months ago was 44.3%, and according to the normal development, her erosion rate will exceed 45% within a month, and then the erosion rate of the original enterovirus will start to skyrocket, which is why the erosion rate of the initiator reaches 45% and the recycling and disposal is initiated."
"With normal development, it is absolutely impossible for her to participate in the battle now, and I don't believe that without her, with those cursed sons who have not undergone any training, they can defeat a well-trained and well-equipped civilian police team."
Vice President Shibasaki nodded in agreement, an hour had passed since the team had lost contact, and the last contact could vaguely hear the sound of battle, and then the contact was completely disconnected.
And just then, a man walked over.
"Our intelligence officers in District 16 have reported that more than twenty cursed sons have broken through the SDF blockade and killed them from District 17 to District 16; Not only the Self-Defense Forces, but also our police in charge of the 16th district went to follow up, and it was determined that contact was lost. ”
Lost contact?
Kujou Shingen's face became more and more ugly, and at some point, everything was out of his control.
This little ghost named Wood seems to have jumped out of thin air, he has not found any information about the other party on his side, and the other party has already hidden in the shadows and started to act, with mental calculations or unintentional, and he has not been given any time to react.
And these cursed sons are not simple, not only with Anna's terrifying combat power, but also with the cursed sons who are extremely good at detection, otherwise it would be impossible to kill the people they sent to follow them repeatedly.
With the breakthrough along the way, the opponent's team is also expanding, and many of the starting people of the police have become the companions of those cursed children.
In this regard, Kujou Shingen didn't feel any surprises, how most of the police treated the starter, he naturally couldn't not know, although they didn't have any opinions, but they would definitely be more biased towards their own kind.
Kujou Shingen took out a white handkerchief from his arms and wiped the corners of his mouth, calming his mood.
Vice President Shibasaki glanced at Kujou Shingen, and a coldness flashed in his eyes: "President, if this operation fails, do we want to find a way to ...... Qiwu Xuanzong?"
"Huh."
Shingen Kujou laughed and turned his head to look at Vice President Shibasaki beside him.
Vice President Shibasaki's face remained unchanged, but his heartbeat couldn't help but start to speed up, his body tensed, and he only felt that all his secrets were perceived by these eyes, and he couldn't help but start thinking nonsense.
Did he see something?
"If Qiwu Xuanzong is so easy to kill, after the original war, I will already control Osaka District."
Just when Shibasaki was thinking nonsense, Kujo Shingen suddenly retracted his gaze: "Qiwu Xuanzong is a very terrifying politician, if you have to compare someone with him, I think Hitler is the politician who is most similar to him, don't you think the living environment of our cursed son in Osaka is very similar to the Jews during Hitre's reign?" ”
Shibata was stunned, groaned for a moment and nodded.
"Hitler experienced 47 assassinations in his lifetime, while Qiwu Xuanzong experienced 19 assassinations in just ten years, and both of them were unscathed, how could they be killed so easily."
Kujou Shingen sighed: "Anyone can be in power in peacetime, but in the face of a crisis, you need those who are both capable and dangerous, because they can say the dream words of 'I am the hope of mankind' with a serious expression, and Qi Wu is the most dangerous one." ”
"The military strength under the banner of Qi Wu Xuanzong is the strongest, and after the proto-intestinal war, those big countries need a lot of 'money, so Qi Wu Xuanzong returns the money and gets the support of those big countries in terms of funds and weapons, and with his military strength plus the support of those big countries, the ambition of continuing to develop for a few years to unify the five regions has a great chance of being realized."
"Just because we want to kill him, it's tantamount to looking for death, even if we put aside the military strength, Qiwu Xuanzong also has strong guards around him, Sendai once organized an assassination, and the police with an IP ranking of 65 went to assassinate him, but in the end it was also unsuccessful."
The more Shibasaki Yuzo listened, the more ugly the expression on his face became, but there was a faint hint of realization in his eyes, and he only now understood why that adult attached so much importance to the person of Qiwu Xuanzong.
"By the way, how was the news I sent you back last time?" Kujou Shingen suddenly asked.
"Huh?"
Shibasaki Yuzo was stunned and looked at Kujo Shingen with an inexplicable expression.
"Didn't I tell you last time I left the gathering place of the Cursed Child?" The corners of Kujou Shingen's mouth hooked: "It will be much easier to cooperate with Tiantong Ju Zhicheng, after all, as long as it is beneficial to himself, anyone can cooperate." ”
Shibasaki Yuzo's face changed drastically, and his body took a few steps back uncontrollably, looking at Kujou Shingen with a frightened expression.
"Eh, don't panic, don't panic!" Kujou Shingen smiled and waved his hand: "I passed on a lot of information to Tiantong Ju Zhicheng through you, and the old man has been pretending to be confused, silently accepting it, and not saying anything back to me?" ”
Through me?
The horror in Shibasaki's eyes not only did not subside, but became more and more intense, and he completely understood...... From beginning to end, it seems that he is the only one who is happily acting as a spy, but in fact, in the eyes of Tendo and Kujou Shingen, he is just a mouthpiece.
"President Kujo?"
"Osaka is going to be a complete mess, if this little ghost named Wood is completely out of my control, how can I prepare a way back, I've always been very hot about the position of the chairman of the IISO branch in Tokyo, and I'm also willing to cooperate with Tendo Kikunosei."
"Back Road!"
Shibasaki Yuzo's face suddenly became a little weird, that little ghost named 'Wood', is the threat really so big?
As if guessing what he was thinking, Kujou Shingen chuckled and said, "It is still necessary to prepare a retreat in advance, after all, whether personally, or from a standpoint, this person named Wood belongs to my opposite, he wants the cursed son to live a 'life', and we can only use it as a tool, and we can't put them on an equal footing with us." ”
"In the end, either he died, or I ran, although it was a bit embarrassing to be forced to run away by a little ghost." Kujou Shingen smiled rather self-deprecatingly.
Shibasaki Yuzo's face is much better, Kujou Shingen has obviously intended to cooperate with Lord Tiantong, and the conditions are also open, so he shouldn't use the means of dealing with spies to deal with himself.
"Lord, I will pass these words on to Lord Tiantong as they are."
"Hmm!"
