Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Empty City
"Whoa! Whoa..."
Xue Qiong swam into the iron door where the two ninjas had been sent before, locked it with his backhand, and then found an operation panel on the wall, after reading the instructions carefully, he pressed a few buttons, and the small cubicle quickly lit up, and the water filled here was quickly drained.
Previously, Xue Qiong found the katana used by the second Imperial ninja in the water, and found that even if the knife collided with his black dagger once, it did not appear to be damaged in any way. Xue Qiong thought that this should be a good thing, so she put it into the storage space without looking at it.
Less than two meters in front of Xue Qiong, there was an iron door that was exactly the same as the one behind him, and the area of the entire small cubicle was less than five square meters. It seems that this small compartment should be an isolation cabin, which is usually open, and if it detects that the glass outside is starting to break, it will immediately lock automatically from both ends, preventing further water from pouring inside, and at the same time, it can also facilitate future maintenance or evacuation work.
Xue Qiong took off all his diving equipment, put it into the storage space, dried himself with the towel he found in a waterproof cabinet in the compartment, and then changed into his bulletproof outfit from the transit station, holding the beam saber in his right hand and the madness scroll in his left hand, bent down and made a posture ready to go, and then took a deep breath.
Although the lethality of that high-tech katana was likely to be stronger than this lightsaber, the beam saber weighed only one handle, which was obviously more suitable for someone like Xue Qiong who was not strong in muscles. The AK47 sleeping in the storage space was not chosen by Xue Qiong, the reason is because according to Xue Qiong's observation, the technological level of this world must be higher than that of the real world for I don't know how many years, and the bullets of AK47 are likely to not even be able to penetrate their individual combat armor.
As for the madness technique, it was because in Xue Qiong's expectation, after the door was opened, he would definitely face an ambush from many people, so he had to use the power of illusion to reduce the opponent's combat power first. The reason why he didn't use the frenzy technique on the necklace was that due to the strong side effects before, Xue Qiong didn't dare to use his mental power in a short period of time...
"Tick!" A loudspeaker on a nearby wall chimes, "Drainage complete." ”
"Smack!" Xue Qiong pushed the button to open the door with his elbow, and then calculated the time, and when the pressure valve on the door was still rotating on its own, he faced the door and unfolded the madness scroll with one hand and teeth!!
"Dada!!"
"Don't shoot! Kudo! Are you crazy! Yes!!!! ”
"Damn, request for backup! Request for support!!! ”
"Kill him! He's not our comrade-in-arms anymore!! ”
"Da Da Da! Da-da-da-da! ”
Listening to the gunshots and screams coming from the other end of the door, Xue Qiong put away the Crazy Spell scroll and smiled happily. At this moment, the valve on the iron door in front of me made a "click" sound, and then the door opened outward by itself...
When Xue Qiong was halfway through the door, he kicked on the door panel, and then without looking at the scene outside, he didn't hesitate to use the beam saber to make a swift horizontal slash!
"Zla!!" The sound of the beam saber swinging was really very special, and after Xue Qiong slashed this knife, he stepped to the side and flashed in the other direction, and then he had time to confirm the situation outside the door.
The ambush of his own troops began with three Imperial samurai with submachine guns, followed by two tank killers struggling with heavy plasma cannons, a total of five men.
One of the Imperial samurai is presumably the same Kudo who has fallen for the Berseria spell, and has been beaten into a hornet's nest by friendly fire, but he is supposed to have killed a tank killer before he died. There is also an imperial warrior who was cut in half by Xue Qiong's casual knife when he went out, and he is not dead yet, still lying on the ground and smoking...
(Luckily, there are only two left!) Xue Qiong looked at the one in front of him who looked panicked, and the other who wore a mask and couldn't see his expression, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.
Just when Xue Qiong felt that he was in control, the surviving imperial warrior suddenly threw the submachine gun to the side, and then took out a flashlight-like thing from his waist, and when Xue Qiong's reaction circuit reached the stage of "This thing seems to be a little familiar", the other party had already turned on the switch skillfully, and in an instant, this "flashlight" turned into a beam saber exactly the same as Xue Qiong's hand, and then this person rushed over with a roar!
"Damn..."Although Xue Qiong likes to use knives, in fact, he has almost no confidence in the frontal white-knuckle battle, and he instantly has a feeling of coldness.
But...
(Dreadbook.) Xue Qiong quickly came back to his senses, and took out a scroll with a thunderous ringing bell, and let this one lose his weapon, turn around, and run away...
Next, Xue Qiong easily killed the unprotected tank killer, and then caught up with the one who ran away, and finished it in the back.
After taking care of these two people, Xue Qiong quickly cleaned up the battlefield, picked up a submachine gun, a beam saber and a plasma cutting cannon from the ground, put them in the storage space, and ran away...
By the way, I also threw away the beam saber before, and that one has now entered the water, so I guess it won't be of much use in the future.
(No one?) No one? No one?! Xue Qiong ran and suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and then he decisively stopped and looked to the side twice.
This look makes him a little... Creepy, because to his left is a huge warehouse, which is full of the Ghost King, the highest level of the empire's regular mecha troops, these steel giants are in a half-kneeling position, the cockpit behind them is open, and there is obviously no driver.
However, it is a place full of priceless treasures, usually three steps and one post, and five steps and one sentry will not make people feel unusual... Now there is no one to guard it.
And after Xue Qiong stopped, there was no sound in the corridor at all, and Xue Qiong felt like he had fallen into a kingdom of giants who were all dumb.
"What the hell is going on..."Xue Qiong took a tentative step into the warehouse, and a small platform rose on the floor next to it, on which there was a credit card machine, which was probably an authentication device. Xue Qiong swiped the identity card of the sapper Miyamoto Qiong up, and the machine immediately prompted "No such permission". So Xue Qiong immediately cut the machine in half with a beam saber, and an alarm sounded in the warehouse.
After Xue Qiong quickly retreated outside the door, he found a suitable position to hide in an ambush, but after a full five minutes, there were still no imperial soldiers here, and even a few Xue Qiong could see at a glance the location of the automatic defense system, and did not make any reaction...
