Chapter 128: Both sides can only wait
Bradley and Jiang Mu's battle was close to each other, and they had a rough idea in a few rounds. Just as Bradley gave up on continuing the fight, Mastan and Rust on the other side were also nearing the end.
After being seriously injured by Jiang Mu, in the face of Mastan's attack, Rust had little resistance and fell into a disadvantage within a few rounds.
"Ahhh Rust let out a cry of pain, and the fire burned her body.
"Damn human, stop me!" Rust struggled in the flames, emitting an unpleasant, pungent smell from his body. However, as the energy of the Philosopher's Stone in his body was consumed, this struggle gradually became weak, and soon Rust's screams became lower and lower, and his body was burned to ashes.
Mastan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Rust was finally defeated, stared at the ashes on the ground for a while, and then found that Jiang Mu and the president had stopped fighting and fell into a strange confrontation with each other. After some thought, he turned and ran to Hughes, helping him deal with the other android, Gratoni.
With the addition of Mastan, the pressure on Hughes's side suddenly eased, and Gratoni became like an angry lion as he watched his companion being burned to ashes, and his big hand tapped his belly, and the attraction of the dark passage in his abdomen became stronger.
"You've killed Rust, I'm going to eat you!!"
Gratoni gritted his teeth and roared, eager to devour everyone in front of him.
A powerful hurricane erupted from the otherworldly passageway, and suddenly the walls around it cracked into sinuous cracks, and the whole room began to tremble.
"Mastan, this fat man is a monster!" Hughes put his hand on his forehead, blocking the impact of the wind.
Mastan nodded solemnly: "Yes, this guy's stomach is a bottomless pit!" Blazing flames were released into the air, but these flames had no effect at all, and after hovering in mid-air for a while, they were all absorbed into the other world by the other party.
"Damn, it doesn't work at all!"
Sweat gradually oozed from Mastan's forehead, which showed that he was under great pressure right now. When facing Gratoni, neither he nor Hughes's attacks can effectively exert their full power, on the contrary, due to the dangerous hurricane that constantly emits from the otherworldly passage on Gratoni's stomach, if they are accidentally sucked in, they will be crushed, and they will be thrown into a rat trap.
They had never faced such a difficult opponent.
However, Stallan and Hughes were veteran alchemists after all, and after a short stalemate, they both rushed forward and launched a new round of fierce attacks. I saw Mastan and Hughes exchanging glances with each other, and then one left and one right, interspersed from the two wings.
Gratoni's attacks can only be directed towards one person, and that's when they get the right shot.
Boom Boom! The firecrackers roared one after another, and the entire spacious hall was shattered, and the scorching flames swept over the sky, and Gratoni wailed, no longer the fierce gods and evil spirits that had been before.
……
"Your Excellency, it seems that your two companions are coming to an end."
Jiang Mu looked at Bradley with a smile, his expression was very relaxed.
But seeing Bradley's indifferent expression, he didn't blink at all at the casualties of Rust and Gratoni.
"Hehe, I see, you treat them as my companions, I think you misunderstood, to be honest, I don't know much about the identities of those two people, because they are bodyguards arranged by military generals to ensure my safety when I travel, and I haven't delved into the specific identities."
"But now it seems that they are not normal people!"
Bradley squinted his eyes and turned to look at Gratoni, who was attacked by Mastan and the others.
“……”
Jiang Mu sneered in his heart, but he didn't bother to expose the other party's lies.
"Then why did Your Excellency the President stop me from killing the other party just now?"
Bradley said in a deep voice: "Because after all, they are personnel sent by the military to protect me, and I naturally can't sit idly by without knowing the situation." Even if the lady took the initiative to provoke the incident, as the president, she couldn't let her be killed for no reason. This is necessary to maintain the face of the military, and the alchemist of the Ice Flame understands the righteousness and should understand it. ”
"In addition, after the last brief fight with Your Excellency in Central City, I miss it very much, and now I can't help but itch when we meet again, so I want to ask for advice again. Sure enough, he is worthy of being an alchemist of Ice Flame, and his means are really good! Not bad! ”
Bradley laughed, not caring about the arm that shrugged because of the injury.
At this time, he looked at Gratoni, who was already at the end of the crossbow.
Bradley frowned slightly, and muttered to himself: "It seems that I have also looked away, judging from their strange attack methods, those two people can no longer be considered human." Could it be that someone in the military has carried out some forbidden experiments in violation of the law? ”
As if completely unaware of it, the first time he had heard of a violation in the military, Bradley's tone was full of surprise.
The next moment, Bradley's eyes sharpened, and the powerful momentum pressed towards the side.
But seeing the blue flash, Bradley's figure became blurred, and when he looked again, there was no Bradley's shadow in the same place, and he had reappeared in the position between Mastan and Gratoni. Bradley leaned down, the long sword in his hand swinging a half-moon shape.
"Flutter!"
The rippling sword light looked incomparably beautiful, and at this moment, time seemed to freeze, and blood splattered out.
"How can this be, Rust is dead, why are you still attacking me?!" Gratoni looked at his body with a smile, not expecting that his boss would actually attack him.
"Where did the monster come from to infiltrate the military, what is your purpose?" After cutting off Gratoni's body, Brared glanced coldly at Gratoni and asked in a loud voice.
The expression is gloomy, showing indifference.
"Russ!!" Gratoni yelled angrily, but as his upper body separated from his lower body, his life force was rapidly depleted, and soon his body began to wither, turning into two puddles of flesh.
"It's a monster!" Bradley's brows furrowed, and he said solemnly: "This time it is really a serious mistake by the military, if it weren't for coming to the Eastern Command, it would not be possible to find out that the military actually let such a monster get in, it seems that it is necessary to carry out a large-scale rectification of the army." ”
"Mastan Dazuo, Hughes Zhongzuo, it is really thanks to your heroic battles that you can eliminate the spies who infiltrated our army in one fell swoop, which is a great achievement."
Bradley looked at Mastan and Hughes appreciatively, not realizing that they were villains.
"It's so spicy!"
Hearing Bradley's words, Mastan and Hughes's brows furrowed even deeper.
After looking at each other, they thought that they couldn't turn their faces with Bradley face to face for the time being, although if they joined forces with Jiang Mu, it was very likely that the president would stay in the Eastern Command, but doing so would inevitably be charged with a crime of rebellion, which was equivalent to cutting himself off from the generals of the army, and it would be difficult to move an inch in the future.
In fact, they know that the president is just a figure who has been pushed to the front of the stage, and even if he intercepts the president, it will not do much good to save Amestolis, but will plunge the country into chaos early.
Their real enemy is Holmonx, who rules all of Amestorius, and it is not the time for a head-on confrontation when it is not fully prepared.
"Where, Your Excellency the President is polite, the spies within the army naturally have to be cleaned up, this is related to the purity of our team, and it must be carried out cautiously! However, the two people with strange methods just now, I suddenly felt that they were very similar to the synthetic beasts mentioned by Mr. President, and it seems that someone is indeed secretly conducting illegal experiments, and it is even likely that this involves some generals within our military! ”
"Your Excellency the President, this matter must be treated with caution, and it must not be tolerated and indulged!"
"Well, Mastan Dazuo's words are very reasonable, and it is necessary to investigate this matter clearly when I return to Central City!" Bradley nodded earnestly.
"By the way, what about Lieutenant General Gulaman, I haven't seen him for a long time......"
……
Soon Bradley left, neither Mastan nor Hughes stopped him, and even when Bradley left, he asked the officers to clean up the ashes of Rust and Gratony, still acting like a good president on the surface.
"Jiang Mu, do you think it's appropriate to let the president leave like this?" After the president left, Mastan was worried.
Jiang Mu smiled: "What if you don't let him go, if you forcibly keep him or kill him, it will only cause turmoil in Amistolis." ”
It's not that Mastan and Hughes don't know this, it's just that it is difficult to maintain the relationship between the Eastern Command and the Central Committee after the two sides tear their faces.
Even if Mastan and Hughes look "unaware", after this incident, Bradley must have a thorn in his heart.
Of course, they also knew in their hearts that Holmens and the others had been arranging for hundreds of years in order to wait for the appointed date, and at this critical juncture, they needed a relatively stable environment, and they would definitely not risk breaking with the Eastern Command to start a war.
"Anyway, the other party is waiting for the appointed date, and we will wait quietly." Mastan could only sigh silently.
