Chapter 13: The Suspected Stranger

"Colonel......" he couldn't help blurting out, thinking that he was hallucinating with a headache.

It is undeniable that Ji You, when he was uncomfortable and was surrounded by terrifying ghosts, saw this vicious colonel suddenly appear-

At that moment, Ji You thought of the heroes of the old movies, who basically "fell from the sky" like this.

Of course, the excited thought was only for a moment, and Ji You secretly warned himself not to be deceived by appearances, so Ji You, who suddenly became upright, said to the colonel who was constantly "collecting ghosts":

"Good evening, Mr. Colonel, do you need me to point you in the right direction?" I've been here for almost half an hour to point out to your dear vice-captain and the others, hehe. ”

The word hehe has a very strong bite.

It means that you are such a capable boss, can you appear early next time, for an ordinary person like me, I don't feel that I was forced to be a live target in the face of the scene of ghosts from the beginning...... Isn't it so unconscionable, guys?!

I thought that this belatedly indifferent hero would ignore him as before, but Ji You found that Colonel Shigemei, who heard this, actually paused with his hand holding the sword.

Immediately after, Chongming took the time to glance at Ji You in the golden defense enchantment, didn't say anything, and continued to wave the short sword to collect the ghost.

"Captain!"

Chai Qing and Yu Xiao finally rushed over.

The enchantment disappeared with a "snap", but Ji You did not stand up, and the red-clothed little Ah Piao in his arms still lowered his head.

Chai Qing didn't think much about it, but reported to Chongming:

"Captain, you're ready."

As soon as the words fell, Chongming said "um", walked to Ji You's side, and drew a simple and mysterious symbol with the short sword in his hand.

At the same time, Chai Qing also instantly released his ability on the side, and in an instant, with Chongming next to Ji You as the center, a radius of a hundred miles, the golden enchantment formed a hemispheric bulge.

Ji You raised his eyes slightly, looking at the scene in his field of vision tiredly.

The remaining ghosts with a lot of yin qi were all confined to the barrier at some point - presumably this is Chai Qing's ability.

"Vice-Captain Match, you really look up to me...... Although I still don't know...... Why do you have to put me in the center of the barrier, just because I'm a ghost-sucker? But...... You're really good at using resources. ”

Ji You's voice was obviously weak, in fact, he didn't even bother to think about it. It's not hypocrisy, but in this environment where he doesn't know when he will be taken advantage of, he feels panicked if he wants to faint with peace of mind.

Chai Qing was just a few steps away, and the five senses of the ability were already much stronger than ordinary people, and it was not difficult to hear Ji You's words, but at this moment he really had nothing to say, the truth was just like Ji You's words.

He pinched the "hell" amplifier he had just taken off, and thought: I am a responsible man, and I can't justify my actions.

How did Ji You know that the elite vice captain had so much inner drama, and he was quite lucky, and sure enough, he didn't stupidly believe that people were right at first.

Qin Zhen has also lifted his ability, and when he sees this scene, he can only glance at Yu Xiao, I'm afraid that he can't say anything, and it is estimated that the more he says, the more wrong it will be.

And Colonel Chongming on the side, after drawing the mysterious symbol, began to close his eyes, holding a short sword in one hand, and constantly gesturing with the other, after a few seconds, the colonel opened his eyes and swiped his right hand slightly-

The ghosts and monsters in the enchantment seemed to be frozen, all of them were still, and in the next moment, whether they were heavy yin qi or strange colors, they all disintegrated in the air like fragments, and flew uncontrollably in the direction of the ghost container on Yu Xiao's body.

Ji You was in no mood to look at these at all, and just as Yu Xiao was confirming that it was correct, Ji You stood up from the ground swaying.

The ghosts who all wanted to eat his spicy crayfish were gone, and there was finally a sense of relief in their heads.

"Hey ......"

Seeing this, Chai Qing was about to step forward to help him, but was immediately rejected by Ji You, who lowered his head.

"No, you don't need to worry about your vice-captain's control...... I'm kind of impressed with the Special Operations Department, no, I should be with the Anomalous......"

Ji You, who obviously felt a lot better, felt a mess in front of him, he shook his head, and didn't forget to tightly pull the clothes of the red-clothed Xiao Ah Piao in his left hand.

"It seems...... Whatever the Adept is...... We ordinary people...... It's all incomparable......"

Ji You, who was cool on his lips, tried to take a step forward, but he never thought that his body had finally reached the limit, and he couldn't bear it, and his eyes were black in the next second, and he was about to fall to the ground by inertia.

Before consciousness completely disappeared, Ji You felt a pair of hands suddenly appear on his waist, avoiding the danger that he would become mentally retarded due to falling.

…… Ahh

Cold, hard and ruthless, and strange, it made him subconsciously flash such a thought in his mind-

If it was this person, there would be no problem.

At the same time, the Earth Alliance S City Branch.

The staff member who was sitting in the office drowsy suddenly nodded, awakened by his own drowsiness, and looked up in a daze to see that a new mission message had been sent.

"Ah...... It's so late that someone is still doing a task? It's hard enough, those guys. He yawned, pointed his hand at the large electronic touchscreen, and read the words indistinctly.

"S City, the woods on the outskirts, exterminate 78 Yin ghosts...... 21 Spirits...... 13 ......"

As he read it, the staff member was completely awake, and he jumped up from his seat in surprise, his head "swishing" close to the electronic screen, and almost stuck on it.

"Damn, solve so much at once?! And evil ghosts and spirits that have been dead for more than a few hundred years?! And ......"

"When did S City become so dangerous?! It's usually good to meet one or two powerful ghosts, but what's going on this time, what good things are all attracted here? ”

"Oh my God! The person who completed the task is, yes and is...... Is it a team of colonels from the headquarters of the Union ?! The terrified Colonel Shigeaki?!! How did that god come here?! ”

Even the exclamations could not express the staff member's shock.

####

Coincidentally, several people at the headquarters of the Earth Alliance also received such a message.

In a laboratory at the Fourth Research Institute at the headquarters, a researcher's assistant rubbed his eyes, his face disappointed, as if the experiment was not going well.

And when I see the special message that appears in the lower right corner of the computer, I don't feel sleepy. After all, it's usually his assistant who is responsible for sending and receiving some messages that researchers need, and it has not been a long time since he can be marked as special.

The last time was probably the incident in Z City two years ago. So what will it be this time?

As the information scanned, an almost distorted expression of excitement appeared on his face.

The other side.

The commander of the headquarters raised his eyebrows, looked at the message displayed on the bracelet, and couldn't help but be surprised:

"This is a reason not to give, and if you don't come back, you won't come back?"

The adjutant, who was very angry at night, answered on the side: "It was the lieutenant general who ordered Colonel Chongming and his team to continue to perform other tasks in S City, Commander, have you forgotten?" ”

“…… Lieutenant General Li Cunshan? Oh, it seems like that's the case. The young commander, who had a bad memory, nodded, and suddenly realized. Immediately he read the contents of the special report several more times.

"Also found...... Suspicious, supernatural? But it will take some time...... Observe? "It's clear that the message the Alliance Commander received was different from the content of the others.

Or, the message is different for everyone.

"The latter sentence should be the style of Chongming." The commander looked out the window at the night scene. "It's been a long time since I think about it. Xiaohe, I have time to arrange to meet you in the next two days. ”

Adjutant Xiaohe: "......"

Commander, the last time you saw Colonel Shigeaki was in the afternoon six days ago! It's been a long time since I saw anything!
