Chapter 39: The Praying Mantis
"The splendor of civilization. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Looking at the skyrocketing attention in the distance, the man grinned and showed a hint of a smile. He watched the lights gradually emerging in the originally dark ruins, and there was a bit of melancholy in his eyes. Once upon a time, it was the most normal scenery in this world, but now, it has become a landscape that can only be seen in dreams. Perhaps, the land of light, which was enough to overshadow the entire night sky, will never appear again.
"You know what? I've never been interested in this kind of sissy stuff, but now, I think those idiots aren't just moaning without disease. I used to think that whether the world was dead or alive had nothing to do with me, I just wanted to find a woman and have a child. But ........."
As he spoke, the man waved his hand helplessly.
"Forget it, none of this is interesting......... According to the traitor's previous report, these guys suffered heavy casualties while exploring the ruins, and now is our only chance, I wonder if that traitor will be stupidly discovered, in case they call for help..............."
"They'd better not do that."
At that moment, another burly orangutan-like man strode over, his cigar in his mouth, and a hearty and smug smile.
"We have everything ready, more than eight hundred commandos are on standby outside the ninth district, although that turtle shell is now completely blocked, but if they dare to open the blockade line to come to the rescue, then our fighters will let this group of idiots taste our power, and the so-called 'Big Seven'......... Hum. ”
Speaking of this, the orangutan man seemed to think of something, and showed a disdainful sneer.
"I remember a saying somewhere that a frog at the bottom of a well could only see the sky above his head, and the same was true for the idiots in District 9. They simply don't understand that that little bit of power is not worth mentioning. I really want to see what kind of expressions they have when they feel the fear of death, and my favorite thing to do is to drag these high-flying bastards down the clouds and watch them die like dogs in despair and agony......... And this time, there will be no exceptions! ”
Saying this, the man spit the cigar in his mouth on the ground, and then stepped on it hard, he slowly turned his leather boots, until the cigar under his feet was crushed into powder, the man raised his head, grinned and showed a mouthful of snow-white teeth, like a beast showing a hideous smile.
"So, let's get moving. If our intelligence is correct, the node will not be able to protect itself within twelve hours after it is activated, and they will definitely deploy all their forces at the node, as long as we kill those guys, then not only the ninth district will be ours, but even this neighborhood will become our territory! ”
The dark shadows began to spread, and the aura of danger spread out, rushing towards the brightly lit neighborhood not far away.
"Huh?"
Faeron stopped, raised his head and looked ahead, now the desolate streets deserted under the glare of the streetlights. After the "Emperor" took over and took control of the node, all the power systems were restored, and even the street lamps that had not worked for decades once again emitted a bright and dazzling light, illuminating the originally dark and dim streets in front of them. Not only that, but if you look from both sides, you can even see the neon lights on some of the shops that have not been completely destroyed by the "cataclysm" still flickering, and some of the collapsed shops even have the sound of smelly music.........
To be honest, it's even more scary than it was when it fell.
And at this time, Faerun's ears heard Eluka's voice again,
"That......... Commander? ”
"What's the matter?"
Hearing Eluka's voice, Pheren turned his head and glanced at the three sisters. They had completely absorbed the energy chips provided by Feren, and their ability levels had been further improved. Among them, the lowest-level Kurona little sister is the most profitable, her [Psychic Sense] has been directly upgraded from the initial level one to the third level, and originally Kulona's [Psychic Sense] can only sense moving objects and stationary objects, and then judge what the other party is by comparison. However, after reaching level 3, Kulona's [Psychic Sense] has been able to detect living and non-living forms, and can also mark them one by one, and show these marks to other companions. Although the exploration area has not increased, the improvement in accuracy and ability itself has already made Kulona excited.
"That's right," Kulona reported......... Someone is following us. ”
"Tracking?"
Hearing this, Faeron narrowed his eyes, and his usual gentle smile appeared on his face again.
"It's funny, this is Blackstone's territory, why are we being followed?"
"This ......... I don't know either, but according to Sister Chrissy, it seems that the other party is from the Wilderness Alliance..............."
Like Kurona, Chrissy and Eluka also benefited a lot, Eluka's [Fierce Firepower] was increased to level three, and Chrissy's [Absolute Lock] did not reach level four, but after absorbing the energy crystal, it also had an additional [hidden] trait. And the so-called [concealment] means that Chriss's ballistic trajectory, firelight and sound will be completely erased after she fires, which means that even if she shoots and kills the target, others will not know who did it, and it is even impossible to find Chrissy's exact location!
In fact, Chrissy was not in the team at the moment, she was alone and silently sneaking around the abandoned buildings like a cat, while guarding the surroundings. Because of this, she was able to confirm the identity of those who were tracking her as soon as she received Kulona's report.
"Do you need us to kill them?"
Speaking of this, Eluka was obviously a little eager to try, her [Fierce Firepower] was raised to the third level, and its power naturally increased a lot. At the moment, Eluka is obviously planning to find a target to try her hand, as a resident of the wilderness, of course she knows about the organization of the Wilderness Alliance, but as a hunting dog, the Black Dog Squad has no good impression of this kind of group that huddles together to warm up and bully others in the wilderness, and in terms of the rules of the wasteland, the ending of not being kind of is basically trying to find a way to kill the other party.
"No, we have other tasks, these guys can follow if they want to."
"But Commander, these people obviously have bad intentions........."
Of course, I knew they had bad intentions, but it was okay to find time to solve this problem......... Well............ This also seems like a good opportunity?
Thinking of this, Faeron smiled, and then he glanced at Delin, who was standing quietly beside him.
"Over to you, Delin, go according to plan."
"Yes, master."
Hearing Feren's words, Delin nodded, and then saw the maid take two steps back, and then suddenly jumped forward——— and in the process, her whole person changed into a black cat again, and then quickly and deftly disappeared into the ruins, and soon disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this scene, both Eluka and Kurona couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise, they had already learned Delin's true identity from Feren, after all, women with cat ears and cat tails didn't look like normal humans. As for the species of demons, it is not uncommon in the wilderness, and many demons do not want to coexist with humans, they would rather choose their favorite places than live with humans. However, some of the demons in it are still very friendly to humans, and Eluka once said that they were rescued by a certain demon on the way to be hunted and killed, so the three sisters did not show too much resistance to the demons. It's just that seeing Delin transform in front of them still made them surprised.
"Let's move on."
After making sure that Delin had completed her mission, Ferron continued down the street with Eluka and Kurona, looking at everything in front of her uneasily, and Eluka was visibly nervous.
"Commander, where do we want this?"
It's no wonder that Eluka has such doubts, and when Fallon calls them out, he only says that there is a task for them to complete, and does not tell Eluka what they are going to do. At first, the three sisters thought that they were here to clean up the battlefield, but soon found that Fei Lun did not take them to clean the battlefield, but left the heavily guarded core area directly and began to march towards the periphery. Could it be that they are going to rush back to the 9th district overnight? So why not just take the car faster? Or did the commander have something else in mind?
"Just follow along, we'll have a good show to watch in a while."
Facing Eluka's questioning gaze, Faerun's expression did not change in the slightest. And in the face of his answer, Eluka couldn't say anything, after all, the other party was their commander, and he and the others also promised to act according to Faerun's orders——— anyway, now that he sold his body, what else is there to be afraid of?
But what puzzled Eluka was ......... What is the good show that the commander said?
