Chapter 417: Tosh [For Ten Thousand Rewards, 28/36]
Suffering......
Hatred......
Eat one's heart out......
Wrath......
Lonely......
A voice reverberated in his head, and after being repeated tens of thousands of times, it became the whole of his life.
The senses gradually became clearer, and the psionic energy once again filled the body, even more powerful than usual. At this time, Tosh opened his eyes and looked at the world with white eyes.
Pitch black took up all of his eyes, and black smoke continued to escape from the corners of his eyes.
He was at the door of a warehouse at an imperial base in Keha, and in front of him were two marines guarding the warehouse.
Tosh knew what he wanted to do, of course, and that voice had already told him.
"Hey, man. Do yourself a favor and open the door. Tosh began. Despite their horror from their dark eyes, the two Marines, who were unfamiliar with the ghost, did not notice anything strange about the ghost, and they looked at each other and decided to do justice to them.
"This is the warehouse of the military base, please show the instructions of the Quartermaster Department when entering and leaving this place."
"Hey man, I'm a ghost, how could I possibly carry those things." Tosh tried to verbally get the two to open the door, but their impartiality was beyond the limits of his imagination.
"Please show the Quartermaster Department's instructions."
"I said ......"
"Please show me the Quartermaster Orders in your hand."
The ghost no longer wanted to waste time on them, his eyes widened, and a slight purple glow appeared in his eyes that were as dark as a thick fog, and the brains of the two marines exploded under the violent fluctuations of psionic energy.
"What a waste of time."
After Tosh expressed his disdain for the actions he had just taken, he unleashed a psionic blast on the one-meter-thick gate.
The gate was slammed into the door, and a large gap appeared in front of Tosh. At this moment, the door is open.
This is the end of the surveillance video, and with a play button symbol appearing in the center of the monitor of the personal PC, Nova takes off the ghost mask and gently holds her forehead with her hand.
Zhao Yi also held his head, facing the betrayal of his former companions, his head not only hurt, but also a little heavy.
"I knew these ghosts couldn't be trusted." Nova said, turning off her PC.
"But it's true that they saved you from the psionic suppressor." Jim said that he also watched the video surveillance. Having fought alongside Tosh for countless days, his betrayal undoubtedly dealt Jim a blow hard.
Zhao Yi did not participate in the dialogue between the ghost and Jim, and since he was involved, it did not help to solve the problem, and the contradiction between the two would make the conversation more and more gunpowdery.
The former traitor Jim Reynolds is Nova's number one arrest target, and of course, for some reason, Jim Reynolds will not be directly assassinated, but Jim Reynolds' men will not escape the ghost for these reasons.
In addition to the contradiction of his brother being killed, Jim also has the contradiction of being captured by Nova.
Of course, Jim also knew that this ghost agent was forced, so he didn't throw himself into absolute anger.
And Nova is also very unaccustomed to the former traitor becoming her companion, so that her already cold face becomes more and more cold.
A female ghost, an old cowboy. This scene seems to have been seen somewhere......
After complaining slightly in his heart, Zhao Yi began to think about why Tosh suddenly rebelled.
According to Zhao Yi's knowledge, Tosh had a deep hatred for Mengsk, but this deep hatred ended with the fall of the Mengsk regime and the coming to power of Mengsk's son Valerian Mengsk.
Of course, there is also evidence, Tosh has had many private meetings with Valerian, and since Tosh can get along peacefully with Valerian and start a conversation, it means that the reason for the Wraith's betrayal is not the Empire.
"What did Tosh steal?"
"A fusion device."
Oh, the fusion device.
The fusion device is one of the most powerful weapons of mankind to date, and once this fusion device is detonated in a densely populated place, or in a palace place, then ......
"We must find him!" Zhao Yi said, however, his nonsense also received a serious explanation from Nova after gaining a lot of white eyes.
"Tosh was my toughest opponent, and in addition to the difficulty of psionic parity, he was also very skilled in stealth - at least I struggled to find him in the last fight."
"Wow, I thought you'd be washed of these memories?" Zhao Yi made a little joke coldly, and Nova continued to answer seriously.
"It's impossible for me to relearn combat skills after every mission." The implication is that memory cleansing is selective.
Tosh does have feelings for Nova, in addition to the plot that Zhao Yi knows, the narrow encounter in the palace that made Zhao Yi deeply affected Zhao Yi made Zhao Yi convinced of this. However, Nova did not show this affection for Tosh.
Yes, just dissatisfaction with old opponents, and calm.
Maybe it was to wash away the memories with Tosh?
"So you can't find him?"
"Not yet, and even if it is found, it will take a long time - damn it, if the fusion device is allowed to detonate, then at least hundreds of thousands of civilians will be killed or injured." Nova smacked her own knee. In the face of Nova's chagrin and anger, the rest of the ghosts remained silent.
The strongest ghosts can't do it, so they can't do it even more.
"Jim? Maybe you can find your old buddies? Hundreds of thousands of civilians were about to die in front of him, and Zhao Yi broke through the shackles of guilt in his heart and raised questions.
Of course, Zhao Yi felt sorry for these civilians, in the past days, although the insect swarm under Zhao Yi's command had slaughtered countless imperial troops, he had slaughtered a few civilians. But that's because of the difference in foothold - at that time the Imperial forces were the enemy, and even the civilians were the enemy. Although Zhao Yi had tried his best to avoid slaughtering civilians, he had killed some more or less indirectly.
Now, these civilians are friendly forces. Zhao Yi naturally will not sit idly by.
Jim shrugged.
The Rangers' collaboration with the Wraiths does not seem to be intimate, but rather something like a partnership—under the pressure of the Empire of yesteryear, the bohemian Rangers and the Wraiths, who no one looks down upon, can still work together. And the fall of the Arcturus regime was the time when the two sides parted ways.
Now, it seems, Jim can't help.
The clue was terminated, and Zhao Yi was a little unwilling. After quick thought, Zhao Yi asked a question.
"Can we interrogate the ghosts of the betrayals of the same period?"
