Chapter 739: Hostage
……
"So you're talking about finding someone to understand the situation, and that's him?"
Barnes stood behind Luo Yang.
"yes, what's the problem?" Luo Yang spread his hands.
……
At this time, the two of them were standing in the office of the chief executive of the New Immortal Bird Company.
The middle-aged man sitting across from them with his legs crossed was once the most famous tech entrepreneur in the world.
Rael Adam.
……
Adam asked, looking at Luo Yang and Barnes.
"Coffee?"
"Nope."
"Just drank it."
Both Barnes and Luo Yang shook their heads.
"Then you must have come to me for something else...... Oh yes, I thought you were dead after a long time. Rael greeted Barnes.
"Almost." Barnes nodded faintly.
"So you're just, you've lost an eyeball, and it's a coincidence to say that my hands aren't very sharp now......"
……
"Hey, stop, you're talking about it? I'm not here to talk to you. Luo Yang interrupted Barnes and Rael's small talk.
He sat down on Rael's desk and said solemnly, "I want all the specifics of what happened in District 6 a few hours ago. ”
Rael blinked.
He put down the coffee cup in his hand and said with a strange face: "Intelligence, what do you mean?" ”
"This." Barnes shoved the tablet in front of Rael.
The computer screen displays the content of the previous official news releases.
"Wait, that's what you want to know?" Rael looked at Luo Yang.
"Or else?" Luo Yang asked rhetorically.
Rael, on the other hand, touched his gray-white stubble and said, "I thought you did this." ”
"Well, theoretically it's our plan, but it's complicated, and it's a part of us that's in charge of executing it, but this one-eyed guy and I went on another business, and we've just come back...... Anyway, it's complicated to explain, you just have to tell me what the hell is going on with this kind of engineer about the Wils. Luo Yang didn't plan to explain the time jump to Rael, this kind of thing can't be explained for a few hours, and the cause and effect can't be explained.
"So......" Rael nodded incomprehensibly.
"You really don't know anything?"
"Do you really think we're here for coffee with you?" Luo Yang spread his hands.
"Okay." Rael nodded.
……
Rael quickly began to pull information from his computer system.
A lot of stuff began to pop up on his desk.
Luo Yang and Barnes stood next to them with their hands on their chests.
He reached out and tapped one of the controls on Rael's desk, and a cup of coffee rose on the table.
Luo Yang smiled and said to Barnes, "I suggest that you can add this function to the next time you install a mechanical limb for yourself." ”
"You can think about it."
Barnes nodded calmly.
……
Next to him, Rael rolled his eyes.
After he called up all the information, he said to Luo Yang: "The above is all the information that the military currently has. ”
"It's not clear what you're doing in District 6, but you've been successful in having your Wil's energy system destroyed, but on the other hand, it's the one you said about the Wil's engineers, and it looks like your people are in some trouble." Rael said, gesturing to the virtual screen in the air.
"That...... Hunter, that's what it's called, I'm not very familiar with the other free man organizations in District 6, but if memory serves, it's called the Hunter Organization, and it seems to be the girl who followed you all year ago. Rael called up some picture materials: "This is the message transmitted by the Wiles to the military, this should be the girl named Bonnie, she is now in the hands of the Wils, captured alive." ”
"That's pretty much what I guessed." Luo Yang shrugged.
"Why didn't the Welts kill her?" Barnes questioned.
Obviously, he knew the way of the Welsh, and for this race, the earthlings were only low-level creatures for them, and sooner or later they would have to be wiped out.
"Because the Hunters didn't kill the engineer either?" Luo Yang said as he looked at the virtual screen in the air.
"Yes." Rael nodded, "That girl's men are not stupid, they took away the engineer of the Welsh and did not kill them directly, this can be regarded as a hostage of each other." ”
"What about the engineer?" Barnes asked.
"Missing, they're well hidden, the entire military is now trying to find a way to find them, but there's no news at all, we don't even know if they're hiding in Sector 6 or the Human Realm now." Rael shook his head.
"No wonder the Welts transmitted Bonnie's data to the military." Luo Yang was stunned.
He looked at the miserable appearance of Bonnie being nailed to the wall by many metal cones on the screen, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
This may be the first time in two years that the Welsh have spoken head-to-head with the military.
"They're trying to get the engineer by holding Bonnie hostage?" Barnes speculated.
"Fool, how can the military care about her life or death~" Luo Yang rolled his eyes.
"But the military really wants to know where the engineer is." Rael said lightly.
"So the military doesn't know anything, right?" Luo Yang spread his hands.
"That's all I know so far." Rael nodded and said, "As far as I'm concerned, that's all I know. ”
"Then you really don't have any eggs, goodbye."
Luo Yang waved his hand boredly, turned around and was about to walk out of Rael's office.
Before he could walk out, Rael shouted at him, "I'm curious what you're going to do next?" ”
And Luo Yang was too lazy to continue to talk nonsense with the other party.
There isn't much of a strong partnership between him and Rael, which is even more fragile than his relationship with Barnes, and even if the two have reached some sort of consensus before that, it doesn't mean that Luo Yang and Rael are on the same page.
"Save the girl first?"
"Or find the engineer?"
Rael continued to ask Luo Yang from behind.
"I suggest you kill the engineer first, you should know better than me which is more important, and besides, don't press my desk's system next time!"
"Bang!"
The door to the office was closed by Barnes.
……
And Rael had no intention of hindering Luo Yang's departure.
The way he does things now is very different from what he used to be.
Rael no longer fully follows the rules, many of his actions have been overridden, and for him, the official repression is gradually and imperceptibly weakened.
He is now the leader of the New Immortal Bird Company.
And in his own heart, only he knows what kind of positioning the new immortal bird company is.
……
Luo Yang and Barnes swaggered through the corridor of the New Immortal Bird Company's base.
They have no fear of their whereabouts being exposed.
At this time, in the entire surveillance system of the New Immortal Bird Company, the two of them were completely invisible.
Under Rael's operation, the system ignores the existence of these two people inside the base.
Compared to Luo Yang and Barnes, in fact, if they are exposed, Rael will be more dangerous, so Luo Yang is very calm, and Rael will cooperate to clean up the traces for the two of them.
Even......
Mobility machines are available.
……
"Look, when you cooperated with him before, you didn't have such a good treatment, right?"
On the top floor of the New Immortal Bird Company's base, Luo Yang pointed to the stealth fighter that Rael had prepared for the two of them and said to Barnes.
"Okay."
Barnes didn't bother to talk nonsense with Luo Yang, he boarded the fighter plane directly.
The two left the New Immortal Bird Company as quickly as they could.
The message they needed to make the trip was clear.
After their actions, the Wilish suffered heavy losses, but even so, they and the military still did not go to war, which was very unexpected for Luo Yang, after all, after the large-scale destruction of the entire energy harvesting system, the Wilish were able to calm down and try to negotiate with the military, what a good temper it must be.
But in fact, if you look at it from the point of view of the Welters, there is nothing wrong with it.
Their army is incomplete, or it should be said that what the Wills ultimately want is not to completely control the earth at this stage, but to maintain the integrity of their entire race, because plundering the resources of the earth is to continue the life of their predatory race, if they cannot let more than half of the other races enter the earth, then their losses are very heavy, even if they completely devour the resources of the earth, they cannot make up for the loss of more than half of their tribes.
It's not a hard account.
But for two years, the Welsh still didn't seem to have figured out the nature of humans as creatures.
They thought that the leader of a group of hunters would be able to get the humans to hand over their engineers......
You know, if someone like Bonnie stepped out of the Sixth District, she would be tried by the Supreme Court, and she was no longer a member of this race in the Human Bill.
Clearly, the Welts did not yet understand the extent of the divisions within humanity.
……
The stealth fighter sped in the direction of the Sixth Sector.
Along the way, Barnes kept going through the information Rael had given.
……
Although there were only a few words of exchange, it was clear that the military did not know anything about the actions of Bonnie's team.
After all, it's only been a few hours.
Luo Yang didn't think that Bonnie's hunters would be able to send the Welsh engineers out of Sector 6 in such a short period of time, so everything that followed would only take place inside Sector 6.
This is a no-go zone for humans.
But since people like Luo Yang and Barnes have essentially been removed from the Terrans by the Human Act, they don't care where they are.
The 6th arrondissement is the freest place for them.
And the military did not dare to conduct any large-scale operation against the 6th district.
Once it is done, it is a signal for war.
Just like the war two years ago, Luo Yang has become the biggest sinner in the new century because he chose to take the initiative to go to war in the face of the Welt army, this kind of name is not something that any person dares to bear, no one wants to become the second sinner, and this rare stalemate at this stage is what the United Council wants to see the most.
……
"So, shall we go straight back to the agreed position?" Barnes asked Luo Yang.
The two of them are now on their way to the sixth arrondissement as fast as they can.
Before all the action began, that is to say at this time yesterday, they had made a plan that if all went well, the team on the Luo Yang side successfully returned from the timeline of two years ago, and Bonnie's side assassinated the Engineer, then everyone would gather at one of the secret camps of the Hunter Order.
But the problem now is that Bonnie didn't do her job perfectly, she was now in the hands of the Welsh, and the Engineer was in the hands of those under her command.
Although it is not known what happened during the actual battle, it is clear that the reason why the engineer was not killed directly should have a lot to do with Bonnie's capture.
As long as the Engineer is in his hands, the Welts won't kill Bonnie for a while.
That's probably what the rest of the hunters think.
……
However, Barnes didn't really mean to ask for the opinion of Luoyang's destination, and the meaning of his question was actually similar to the question Rael asked when the two of them left the New Immortal.
Find the engineer first, or save the person first.
For the Coalition Council and the military, Bonnie's life and death were completely insignificant, they just needed to make sure that the engineer died.
And the same is true for Barnes.
At least that's what he shows.
But what Luo Yang thinks, he doesn't know.
After all, he's a man who goes his own way through and through, and always has been.
So Barnes was curious about what Luo Yang was going to do, and he needed to figure out the guy's attitude.
……
"Ah, do you have a better suggestion?" Luo Yang looked at Barnes as a matter of course.
"Aren't you going to save your little girlfriend first?" Barnes narrowed his remaining eye.
"Of course." The corners of Luo Yang's mouth twitched.
"But she's not dead yet, is she?" There was no solemn look on his face, but it was surprisingly flat.
Barnes didn't bother to speculate on what was going on in the hell of a guy.
Maybe Luo Yang didn't care much about the girl's life or death, maybe he had other plans, but at least the current situation was acceptable for Barnes.
They've put the whole timeline right.
And the key person in the Wil's short-term reboot of the wormhole is now missing.
This is much easier than the situation in which various crises are on the verge of the past.
……
"What if you find the engineer first?" Barnes glanced at Luo Yang.
"What do you think, you think it's that easy for us to find that guy?" Luo Yang glanced at Barnes inexplicably.
"Oh."
Barnes replied lightly and did not continue to speak. Take a hundred times to read the latest chapter of "I Am the Villain Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
