Chapter 709: Unpredictable Existence
Chapter 709: Unpredictable Existence
In the VIP lounge, Huo Qiankun had a secret conversation with He Xiaotian.
"Brother He, how are you going to deal with the fire stealer?"
"Brother Huo, do you have an effective way to deal with a seventh-level Star Soul powerhouse?"
Huo Qiankun shook his head, "Do you have it?" ”
"Give me another year and a half, maybe; But certainly not at the moment. ”
"So we're only going to have to promise fire stealers?" Huo Qiankun sighed slightly, "Is it true that our dignified Huaxia disciples have succumbed to a villain of unknown origin like this?" ”
"It is for the sake of the life and death of so many Chinese survivors that we have to temporarily endure the humiliation and agree to the other party's conditions; Otherwise, the other party will be crazy and will slaughter Midtown overnight. Brother Huo, this is not a war between people, but a contest between people and the devil. The other party is a seventh-level star soul powerhouse, in other words, he is not a human being at all, but a demonic existence. We humans cannot confront this existence according to conventional logic. ”
Huo Qiankun leaned close to He Xiaotian's ear, "Is it even like that...... N prefix the weapons that start with the letter N and can't help them? ”
He Xiaotian showed a knowing smile on his face, "I didn't know if it would work until I tried it." ”
Huo Qiankun stared at He Xiaotian's eyes, and instantly decoded a lot of information, "It turns out that Brother He and I have thought of a piece, but we can't use this weapon in Zhongcheng City, right?" In addition, it is better to find an unrelated dead man and lead him to the distant explosion site, and if the plan fails, we can flatly deny it. ”
"Brother Huo, don't worry, I'm already working on the implementation of this plan." He Xiaotian seems to be confident.
Huo Qiankun nodded while secretly surprised and admired the depth of He Xiao's Tiancheng Mansion. If it weren't for the temptation just now, how could this old fox reveal his tone? He and He Xiaotian have been intrigued for a long time, and they have long known that the other party is by no means so "harmless to humans and animals" as it seems on the surface. He Xiaotian definitely belongs to the "cunning rabbit three holes" type of opponent, he will never expose all his hole cards; Others should not be delusional to make him exhausted.
Although he couldn't guess all of He Xiaotian's hole cards, Huo Qiankun was sure that this guy would still have other tricks even if the nuclear explosion trap plan failed, and most of these tricks included betraying himself. Of course, he Huo Qiankun is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he may not be able to deal with fire thieves, but at least there is more than one set of plans to "serve" He Xiaotian.
He Xiaotian shook the teacup a few times, "At present, my plan still needs a key person. ”
"Is there anyone else in Midtown who can take on such a task?"
"An outsider."

The Einsatzgruppen team is still exploring the underground pipeline system, and whenever they find a gathering point or suspicious spot for mutant animals, they disinfect it with special incendiary bombs.
The underground pipe system is already eerie, and in the post-apocalyptic environment, this kind of place is like a hell cave. Not to mention the swarms of rats and mutant insects and snakes hiding in the shadows, the microorganisms on the walls of the pipes and in the running water alone are enough to kill, not to mention the outbreak of the slug virus.
Those with dark phobia or claustrophobia are not afraid to enter the pipeline at all, and even those who are physically and mentally sound and have extraordinary courage will find it difficult to survive 10 minutes if they do not have a high-level star soul enough. Fortunately, the special operations team are all strong people above the late stage of the fifth-level star soul, and the leader of the Betus is a sixth-level star soul. They are bold and immune to the fearsome slug virus. If they were infected with this virus, they would be able to kill it instantly with their own energy without harming themselves.
"Huh? A branch pipe was found ahead, suspected to have been newly excavated. Betters reported.
Chu Yanjiao's face suddenly changed when she heard this, and she looked restless.
He Xiaotian reminded in the communicator: "There is no such branch in the record diagram of the pipeline system in Zhongcheng, you should be careful." ”
The Einsatzgruppen traveled along the pipe for a while, and when they came to the end, they found a vertical upward ladder passage.
One by one, the team jumped from the ladder passage to the ground, looked around, and found themselves in a wooded area in the southeast of the outskirts of Midtown. The mutated poplar tree can easily grow to nearly 100 meters tall and more than 2 meters in diameter. Although the area of the forest is not large, it will feel like the sky and the sun are covered, dense and cold on the ground.
"Chief, there are ghosts in this place." One of the team members gasped.
Betters seemed to sense something, too, and raised her hand to signal everyone to stay. He used all his senses to probe his surroundings, and finally found a newly built treehouse behind the dense foliage dozens of meters away. If it were a normal human being, it would never be possible to live in a safer and more comfortable mid-city area and run to the suburbs to sleep in a dangerous treehouse.
"Smack", Betters immediately pressed the warning button, and all the team members immediately entered the battle state, quietly and quickly closing around the treehouse.
The real-time footage with Betters and others in the first person was transmitted to the conference room of the Central City Hall and attracted everyone's attention. Wang Chengba stared at the picture intently, and forgot to start betting again.
"There's someone in the treehouse." Betters raised his voice, "We're the Midtown Einsatzgruppen, please show up quickly!" ”
He shouted three times before someone in the treehouse responded. A sweet, arrogant, and indifferent female voice said, "If you want to live, get away, and never bother me again." ”
This sentence was accompanied by a strange ring energy shockwave, which instantly swept over the entire team member, making everyone shudder.
"I'll go! It turned out to be a woman. Wang Chengba couldn't hold back his curiosity and shouted: "Hurry up and force her to show up!" ”
Huo Qiankun and He Xiaotian glared at Wang Chengba at the same time, and Wang Chengba hurriedly apologized.
Betters reminded and warned the woman in the treehouse again, "Ma'am, please show up in time, or we're welcome." ”
"A bunch of stupid pigs who don't know what to do! Since you want to die, I will fulfill you. As soon as the words fell, a dark shadow flashed in the middle of the Einsatzgruppen team, it was a woman. This woman is dressed in black and covered with a black veil, with a graceful figure and a sultry posture, her eyes are seductive, but there is a murderous and cold aura exuding from her body.
"Wow! A beauty for sure! Wang Chengba couldn't help but scream again. The people in the room glared at him again.
Huo Qiankun reprimanded: "Can some officials check a little in public and at work and pay attention to their own image? ”
"Yes, yes, my subordinates will definitely strengthen their self-cultivation in the future."
The crowd in the room continued to pay attention to the live footage.
At the scene in the woods, the Einsatzgruppen simultaneously aimed their weapons at the woman in black.
"Madam, for your personal safety, please don't ......" Before Betus finished speaking, he was attacked by a sudden beam of energy, and his body flew upside down for more than ten meters, hitting a big tree; And his team members were attacked by an unknown means, staggering and screaming.
"Ahh Everyone in the meeting room in Midtown was shocked. They couldn't have imagined that the other party would be so powerful, and with just one move, they would beat the special operations team, which represented the strongest combat power in Midtown, into a human shape.
"Is this woman an accomplice of the Fire Stealers?" Chu Yanjiao looked around at everyone, looking for someone to echo.
"I think this woman is so powerful, she shouldn't be much weaker than a fire stealer." "It's a pity that the battle is not fought in a shelterbelt, otherwise, the army of intelligent plants will definitely allow this woman to 'enjoy' once." ”
"Who the hell is this woman? Why doesn't we have any information about her at all? He Xiaotian asked.
All the dignitaries looked at each other and were speechless.
The woman in the screen uses her energy field to easily block the Einsatzgruppen members' abilities and bullets, and then smiles wickedly at the screen, "Want to know who I am?" I am Randa the Witch, and I will be your darkest and most horrific nightmare. After speaking, he picked up a team member and forcibly harvested his star soul, and then laughed.
"Hurry up and dispatch all flying mechs and helicopter gunships to the rescue!" Huo Qiankun ordered loudly.

Song Chanjuan attended the first half of the morning meeting at City Hall and returned to Midtown Hospital. Instead of going straight back to her office, she turned to the heavily guarded special ward area, registered at the front desk, and entered Ward 308.
A male patient is looking out through a safety glass window with his back to the door. When he heard a knock on the door, he replied, "Doctor Song, please come in." ”
"Hello Mr. Mu." Song Chanjuan entered the ward to greet her.
The man turned around at this time, his eyes were gloomy, it was Mu Tongguang with the ability to predict. When he was in the old provincial capital, he was poisoned by a fifth-level corpse poison and completely relied on Song Chanjuan's blood to sustain his life. Later, Zhongcheng developed a fifth-level corpse poison antidote to remove the corpse poison from Mu Tongguang's body; However, due to the long-term erosion of the optic nerve by the corpse poison, he has lost his sight. Although the corpse poison was resolved, both eyes were completely blind, and he often suffered from pain, and he was forced to leave the Dreadnought team to come to Midtown for treatment a few months ago.
"Dr. Song is looking for me for the slug?"
"Yes, will Midtown survive this slug crisis?"
Mu Tongguang nodded, "But it will pay a heavy price." ”
"Do you know a way to get rid of the slug?" Song Chanjuan was not originally a person who believed in supernatural powers such as divination and prediction, but the many mysterious events that occurred after the end of the world and the various abnormal abilities displayed by people forced her to adjust her worldview and actively study and study those things that could not be explained by scientific knowledge before the end of the world.
"The key to cracking the slug virus is not one technology and method, but two people." Mu Tongguang showed a frightened expression, "I'm not even sure if the two of them are human. ”
"What are the two characters?"
Mu Tongguang sighed: "We people who play divination and prediction have an unwritten rule, that is, you can't directly ask the demons, demons, and sacred immortals and Buddhas, the elders say that they are easy to be attacked by divine power, and I understand it according to the situation of the end times: Those high-level star soul powerhouses are mixed with a kind of self-protective mysterious power, and if anyone uses the ability to spy on their whereabouts and secrets, they will be attacked by their self-protective attack." ”
"You mean that the two key characters in cracking the slugworm virus are both powerhouses with a high Star Soul level?"
"Not bad."
"Is that fire stealer one of them?"
Mu Tongguang shook his head, he was obviously extremely jealous of the fire thief, and hurriedly avoided the topic about him, "The scene I saw in my prediction was that two strong men, a man and a woman, were fighting in the sky above Midcity, and Midtown was shrouded in darkness and dead silence everywhere. In the end, the woman was defeated, and Midtown returned to light and life. ”
"I see." Song Chanjuan breathed a sigh of relief, she never gave up hope, but at this moment, she really needs external encouragement, the more the better. She was about to ask Mu Tongguang again, and the latter's phone rang.
Mu Tongguang answered the phone, "I'm fine, thank you Miss He for your concern." ”
He Annie's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Master Mu, can you help me predict Lin Zaishan's whereabouts?" I have conclusive evidence that he is still alive. ”
"Oh?" When Song Chanjuan heard Lin Zaishan, she also stared at Mu Tongguang with wide eyes.
"I'm sorry Miss He, I can't help you."
"Why Master Mu, don't you want Lin Zaishan to come back?"
"Miss He, you don't know, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's not that I don't want Captain Lin to come back, but ......" Mu Tongguang wanted to speak and stopped.
"Why, exactly? Tell me that I promise no one will dare to hurt you. ”
Mu Tongguang took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "The reason why I don't dare to predict Captain Lin's whereabouts is because he has become the kind of existence that we can't predict. ”
"What?" Song Chanjuan and He Annie asked at the same time.
