Chapter Twenty-Nine: Arriving at the Gates of Hell

Most of the time, it's easier said than done – as a newcomer, White Bear doesn't want to alert his senior teammates to the enemies they'll be facing: Sapphire Squad, Jack. Sally and his accomplices, thousands of Na'vi, countless rampaging beasts, and the planet Pandora itself. He wanted to warn them, but Guo Bo scared him so much that he felt he had better keep silent—and now he felt that he couldn't.

He stood up and shouted at the maximum volume he could, "Are you really going to kill the hero?" ”

"You don't agree?" Guo Bo turned around, his eyes showed a fierce light, and his hand was on the holster again, and the others also had a secretly hostile, frightening and indifferent expression.

The White Bear tried to retreat, but behind him was the bulkhead of the Valkyrie transport plane, leaving him with no way back but to continue: "Don't you think it's a bit difficult? ”

It's a discounted statement, not actually "somewhat", it's "very".

He Xie took the initiative to correct his inappropriate wording. "Honestly, that's hell-level difficulty."

"So ......"

"But we're still going to do it."

"Why?"

"We are the Hell Squad, always challenging the Hellish difficult missions." He Xie put on a natural attitude, "And the traitor must die, this is a matter of position, and no compromise is allowed." ”

"That's right." Guo Bo shouted in agreement.

The White Bear thinks their decision is completely unreasonable: a matter of position? This is the world of infinite streams, and the most important thing is to live, and then you can talk about anything else, including positions, but the dead can't.

Dead people don't have any power.

Again, he asked: "I still think we should proceed with caution. ”

He Xie refused without thinking. "No, we have made a decision, you can disagree, but you must follow us. If you can't do it, or try to escape, or intend to stand against us, I'm sure the dear Guo Bo Political Council has handled you well. ”

In fact, he doesn't like this trick to scare people very much, but Guo Bo will definitely do it, in this case, He Xie feels that it is better to say it himself-although it is a result no matter who he changes.

The white bear sat back in his seat and didn't say a word.

Since he sat down, He Xie also sat down, Guo Bo originally planned to say a few more cruel words to create more intimidation effects, but he didn't give him a chance to do so.

"Sit down, my friend." "The story is about to begin," he said. ”

Guo Bo immediately did as he asked. As soon as his butt touched the seat, all the characters who had been standing still like a sculpture came to life, and various voices appeared at the same moment: several crew members in charge of the cargo compartment passed through the red barrier, along the head to the tail, urging the passengers to get ready.

"Wear a mask, quick, put on a mask." A crew member who was apparently the leader shouted, "You have to remember, without a mask, you will faint in twenty seconds and die in four minutes." No one can die today, and that would make my report ugly. ”

The passengers in the cargo compartment are wearing masks one after another, and the members of the Hell Squad and Sapphire Squad are no exception.

The Valkyrie transport plane is slowing down, skimming low over the massive pit and approaching the Hell's Gate base. Four "Scorpio" attack aircraft appeared around it to provide security for the last leg of its flight.

A few seconds later, the bulky spacecraft climbed over the base's fence and landed safely on the tarmac.

"Loosen your seatbelts and take your stuff." The warehouse manager issued a new instruction, "Get ready for me, hurry!" Ready in one minute! He walked past the security forces mercenaries who stood up and lined up, and reminded all passengers—mercenaries and company employees of other departments—to be careful: "Once the gangplank is lowered, go straight to the base, don't stop, run straight over and listen to my orders—"

The administrator stopped in front of the gangplank at the tail of the cabin, put on his mask, and the gangplank was lowered.

"Quick, move fast, get out! Keep going, go briskly, don't stop! He urged, driving all the soldiers and ordinary employees off the transport plane. Jack. Sally was a little slower than them, and then there were only two members of the reincarnation team left in the warehouse, glaring at each other, and neither of them would go first.

"What are you doing?" The administrator walked back and drank, "Get out of my plane." ”

"Ladies first." Guo Bo made a gesture of please.

A middle-aged man who looked like the leader of the Sapphire Squad gave a scornful smile in return and left with his teammates.

"Friendly start, huh?" The administrator walked up to Guo Bo and said sternly, "Listen, no matter what you have had before, this is Pandora, you have to put them aside......"

"No, you're wrong, we didn't have a holiday before, but there will be later." Guo Bo replied with a smile, patted his left arm, and walked to the gangplank of the warehouse. The members of the Hell Squad all followed him and didn't speak, and it was only when they all left the transport plane and entered the noisy and crowded Hell Gate base that He Xie quickened his pace to catch up with Guo Bo and reproached him in a low voice: "You shouldn't have said that to him." ”

"Don't worry, he won't remember." Guo Bo said, but did not look at him, but was busy greeting the nearby mercenaries, enthusiastically and accurately calling out each person's name, nickname, or military rank in service, as if those people were old friends he had known for many years.

The mercenaries he called were responding to him with the same enthusiasm, convincing everyone who saw them that they were really old friends.

This guy is squandering his power without restraint. He Xie frowned imperceptibly, worried that Guo Bo's reckless actions would reveal his secret to the members of the Sapphire Squad - they were gone, but it was hard to say if they still had eyes.

He was about to stop Guo Bo, but he was stopped by Qin Lang first.

"Just let him do it." He whispered, "Let our enemies misjudge our strength and position." ”

"You mean, let them think that Guo Bo is the captain?"

"And one of the strongest people in the entire squad."

He Xie didn't know whose idea it was, it was either Qin Lang's or Guo Bo's, but no one publicly put it forward. He suspected that their small group had set up a system of secret communications that was only used internally, and of course, this was normal, he was used to it, neither surprised nor cared.

And, at least for now, their plan was in his favor: if the Sapphire team thought Guo Bo was the captain, the probability of him becoming the main target was greatly reduced.

"I'm okay with that." He said happily, and then appropriately expressed his concern for Guo Bo, "But how can he guarantee his safety?" ”

"It's not that easy to kill a psyker, we've tried." Qin Lang paused for a few seconds, and then said, "And he will protect him." ”

A natural answer, but He Xie was still a little jealous, which made his voice harsh: "As far as a Dark Force user is concerned, his friendship with Guo Bo is really shockingly strong. ”

"Yes, but there's a reason for that."

"What the reason."

"You can ask Guo Bo yourself, when you have the opportunity." Qin Lang pretended to be mysterious, and then changed the topic, "Now, let's go see the colonel." ”

Finding Colonel Quaritch was easy, just like in the movies, and when they arrived, he was lecturing the new mercenaries and staff: "You are no longer Kansas, this is Pandora, ladies and gentlemen." Keep this in mind at all times. He paced through the crowd, "If there really is hell in the world, you might want to go to hell for a vacation after traveling to Pandora." Behind that guardrail, anything alive, whether flying in the sky or crawling on the ground, wants to eat you alive. ”

After a pause, he continued, "There's a native race here, we call the Na'vi, who like to smear a neurotoxin on their bows and arrows, something that can stop your heart from beating in less than a minute, and they have naturally strengthened carbon fiber bones that are hard to kill. As Head of Security, it's my job to keep each and every one of you alive. But I won't succeed, I can't keep everybody, if you want to live, you have to be resolute, you have to follow the rules, the Pandora rules......"

Guo Bo began to applaud. Colonel Quaritch quickly turned around, visibly stunned at the sight of him, and then announced to the mercenaries and staff who were still listening to the lecture: "This is the end of the day, ladies and gentlemen, disband. ”

Despite his confusion at his very sudden order, the mercenaries and staff left, including Jack, who had just arrived. Sally—who arrived later than the Hell Squad—and Colonel Quaritch strode up to Guo Bo.

"Political Commissar Guo Bo." His tone was not kind, but with a little well-hidden hostility, "It's hard to believe that you're running to this place...... My place. ”

"Colonel." Guo Bo smiled, "I miss the few times we fought each other. ”

"It was a day to remember." Quarridge admitted, and then his gaze crossed Guo Bo to the members of the Hell Squad standing in a row behind him, "What are you and your men doing in Pandora?" ”

"We're all in the army anymore, Colonel." Guo Bo said.

"I see it, Commissar."

"I've heard that RDA has some trouble on this planet." Guo Bo continued to play his role, "You know, me and my people are the best at solving problems. ”

"In your own way." Quaritch inhaled hard, then slowly exhaled, "Frankly, I don't want to see you and your people, but there are some troubles here, and it's tricky to deal with. ”

"I hear, Na'vi, it's strange, Colonel, that you didn't use the traditional way to deal with them."

"The Na'vi aren't the only problem here, Commissar."

"What else?"

"You'll find out later." Quaritch looked like he was speechless, and then asked, "Tell me, what do you need?" ”

"A transport plane, a guide who knows the environment."
