Volume 3 Scarlet Dawn Chapter 10 Open!
The squares of Sin City are noticeably more crowded than usual. Except for a few people who were still smiling, most of the contractors had gloomy faces, fully expressing their mood at the moment.
Zhou Qi hurriedly walked into the prop shop located near the auction hall. After a short period of thought, I bought myself several sets of convenient and practical combat uniforms for daily wear. He didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the Spartan 300 scene. Until the mission was nearing completion, he was still wearing the clothes that had been ripped from the dead man's body.
There was still more than 1 hour before the start of the task, and Zhou Qi walked into the market on the side. He noticed that prices had risen by at least 30 per cent compared to usual. The prices of various recovery potions have been raised by nearly 2 times. Demand is still in short supply. It seems that Fu Yunsheng was right before, after every battlefield mission, a considerable number of contractors will disappear forever.
"Zhou Qi?" A slightly hoarse female voice came from the side, full of surprise and a hint of surprise.
Zhou Qi looked back, was it her? Ding Ning. Although she took off the heavy makeup on her face, the soft lines of her face and her hot and tall figure still made Zhou Qi recognize her at a glance.
"Long time no see, Ding Ning." Zhou Qi looked at her with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"yes, I haven't seen you in a long time. You okay? Ding Ning's eyes darkened obviously, although Zhou Qi had a smile on his face, she could clearly feel the sense of distance shown in his words.
"Well, it's not bad, I experienced a bit of an accident, but I finally came back alive."
"I'm sorry, it looks like you know everything."
"Well, you know something, everyone has their own problems. Well, if you don't mind, I can treat you to another drink after the mission is over. recalled Wang Tinghu's attitude towards her before. Zhou Qi sighed slightly in his heart, this woman may really have something unspeakable.
"Thank you! If you can come back alive. Now I have to leave Zhou Qi, you, take care. Ding Ning had fog brewing in his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out and touched his cheek. He turned and ran briskly into the distance.
Zhou Qi sent her back and cleaned up her feelings. Try to connect with Xia Ruobing's channel. I tried several times, but I didn't get a response from her.
It should be that there is no return space yet, Zhou Qi comforted himself. He tried to connect with Fu Yunsheng again. This time there was finally a response.
"Zhou Qi! You kid finally remembered me! I thought you were tired of being with the ice girl, so you forgot about me. Fu Yunsheng's surprised voice came from the channel.
"Brother Fu, how can you forget this! I'll contact you as soon as I come back. ”
"Count your kid with a conscience, right, or do you plan to go it alone? The battlefield mission is not easy, why don't you come to me? The words of one person are too dangerous. ”
"Thank you, Brother Fu. I'm still going to get used to it myself. ”
"Yes, I knew you would say that, keep in touch at all times, you kid must give me a good life."
After ending the call with Fu Yunsheng, Zhou Qi looked at the time, there were still about 50 minutes left before the task began. I still haven't heard from Xia Ruobing. Something can't happen, right? This made him feel anxious in his heart.
He walked towards the mission waypoint. Along the way, he kept contacting Xia Ruobing through heraldry.
"Ice girl, this is the Zhou Qi you are talking about?" A man about 30 years old with a serious expression glanced at Xia Ruobing beside him out of the corner of his eye.
Xia Ruobing's face was full of anger, and she turned her head away with a snort.
"Okay, okay, maybe it's not what you think. If you trust him, don't doubt it. The mission is about to start, so don't go yet! ”
"Humph! Hook up while my sister is not there. See how I clean him up. Xia Ruobing stomped his foot hard, and rushed towards the direction where Zhou Qi was.
"Captain, I think maybe the ice beauty was cleaned up by him. Coming all the way here, it's really a good show to watch. Looking at Xia Ruobing, who was running away, an unusually tall and strong man with a giant axe in his hand, walked over from the corner on the side.
"Brother Dingjun, be careful of being heard by a female tyrannosaurus." The middle-aged man touched a fat man dressed in black at some point. Dressed in a suit, plus two daggers at his waist, he looks like a thief. But judging from his figure, it makes people feel suspicious.
"Cut, Zhao Daming, if you have the ability, you can try it in front of her." The big man known as Brother Dingjun glared at the fat man. There was disdain at the corners of his mouth.
"That's it! Zhang Dingjun, Zhao Daming, don't talk about this nonsense. Get ready. Be careful this time. The middle-aged man interrupted the two of them, turned around, and took the lead towards the mission teleportation point.
"Ruobing? Hear me? There were still 10 minutes left before the task began, Zhou Qiqiang endured the anxiety and panic in his heart, and tried to connect with Xia Ruobing again.
"Humph! You still know how to think about me! Well? "There's finally a response in the channel!
Zhou Qi is like hearing the sounds of heaven! A face full of surprise. The whole person was stunned for a moment. He jerked around. A pretty figure of Xia Ruobing carrying a big knife and a ponytail appeared in front of him.
"Ruobing! Zhou Qi hurried two steps, ignoring Xia Ruobing's low cry, and hugged her tightly in his arms. Feeling the soft touch on his chest and palm, his hanging heart finally relaxed.
"That's it! It's like life and death. The mission is about to start, are you sure you don't want to follow my sister and me? Xia Ruobing snuggled in his arms, and after a moment of warmth, he pushed Zhou Qi away. A hard punch in his chest. With a blush on his face, he asked viciously.
Zhou Qi didn't answer, and nodded slightly. Reaching out and pulling out the Illusion Streamer, he winked at her. In Xia Ruobing's surprised gaze, she put it on her seriously.
At this moment, the huge light curtain of the mission waypoint emitted a dazzling light, and in the space, the contractor who was near the mission waypoint was enveloped by a pillar of light that fell from the sky. Immediately afterward, the body slowly faded and disappeared in the pillar of light.
Zhou Qi stared intently at Xia Ruobing's fading figure in front of him. He seemed to see that delicate pretty face, and smiled at himself. The dazzling glow that hung on her chest, glowing in the white light, was eclipsed by the moment she smiled.
After a strong feeling of dizziness, Zhou Qi opened his eyes. He found himself standing in a field beside a road. In front of me was a burning carriage. Half of the charred horse carcass, emitting a disgusting scorching stench in front of the car. In the smoke of gunpowder, countless soldiers, carrying rifles in both hands, were hurrying forward along the road.
His ears were filled with the sharp sound of cannonballs dragging in the air, and the loud sound of explosions after bursts, and the chains of bullets shining in the distance, making the dense gunfire the main theme of this heaven and earth. He couldn't even hear the footsteps of the soldiers walking by!
A low roar came from the air directly in front of him!
"It's a German plane!" The soldiers shouted loudly. They all lay on the ground, and on the high ground on the side, an anti-aircraft gun quickly aimed at the plane that was diving down with the gunner's rapid rotation of the joystick that controlled the direction. Shells roared out of the chambers and turned into clusters of fire in the air in front of the plane.
The cannon under the propeller of the plane roared and shot two chains of bullets, drawing two lines of death along the road! Dozens of soldiers smoke and dust rose as bullets pierced the ground. After a large blood flower splattered from his body, he fell to the ground silently.
At the same time, the hatch under the plane opened, and a bomb was dropped with a terrible scream, and the landing point was near Zhou Qi!
Zhou Qi pounced to the right! Knocked down a soldier beside him. At the same time, the two narrowly dodged the chain of bullets ploughed by the aerial guns. He grabbed the soldier next to him and sped towards the open space on the right.
The bomb exploded violently not far behind him! A scorching wave of air enveloped flesh and stumps and rushed towards his back. Zhou Qi only felt as if he had been slapped hard by an invisible hand. Together with the soldier who was caught in his hand, the whole person flew out.
"Thank you, comrade, I'm Spulchenko, thank you for saving me." The frightened soldier beside him looked at him with sincere eyes.
"Comrade?" What a touching and heartwarming title that made people's hearts warm many years ago.
At this time, the long-overdue task reminder of the space finally appeared in his mind.
"Time, September 1942, scene Stalingrad. Battlefield Quest Mainline: Fight for control of Stalingrad and eliminate rival contractors! Mission failure, all obliterated! ”
"Current task: to assist the Soviet army in crossing the Volga River and ensure that the oil storage tanks are not blown up!"
