Chapter Forty-Four: The Jagged Ranks
The location of the "Eclipse" is in the hall on the first floor of the base at the junction of the two worlds, and as for why this place was chosen, according to Comrade Futaba, who knows everything, there are two reasons. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
First, not only is it more stable here than if it was launched on Earth, but the endurance of the Eclipse can be extended a lot.
Second, if there are important people who have captured the other party when they return, only this place can accept it, and on the other side of the earth, they will wipe out the otherworldly people in an instant.
In addition, Su Mu felt that she should have omitted one more, and he looked around at the teams that had already been assembled, the ones with new faces, the ones with familiar faces, these were all people from other branches. Choosing this place probably has a more purpose for everyone to gather, right?
Thinking of this, his eyes fell on the three familiar faces in the crowd, a young man, a teenager and a girl, who were the snake team that had been looking for him in the first place.
But that's not the point, it's the strength of this group that catches his attention.
Su Mu stepped forward expressionlessly, his eyes swept over the young man who was only B-level, and the girl who was A-level but her aura was very unstable, and finally asked the young man who was leading the team, "Is it Captain Ma Xiao?" Are your group planning a day trip to the Atlas? ”
Team Leader Su laughed...... Ma Xiao laughed a little reluctantly, different from when they first met, at this time he not only knew the identity of this young man, but also knew that he was the leader of this operation, even if he felt uncomfortable, he could only endure it.
And Su Mu didn't care about Ma Xiao's mood at all, he pointed at the girl, and then pointed at the young man, and said: "Although it is not required to have elite-level strength, at least it must be in a stable state A-level, right?" You get a newly promoted one, forget it, this B-level kid is here to gild? ”
Regarding Su Mu's questioning, Ma Xiao did not answer directly, but showed a trace of apology on his face, and said: "Regarding the misunderstanding last time, please don't take Team Leader Su to heart, I didn't know Team Leader Su's identity at that time, and I did that for the overall situation." ”
However, Su Mu immediately raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean by saying that you have a personal vendetta in my communiqué?" ”
"No, no, no!" Ma Xiao hurriedly shook his head: "Actually, there is a reason for this. ”
"Oh? Does he have special talents? ”
"No, it's not......"
Su Mu chuckled lightly and interrupted directly: "Then take it back." ”
"That...... It was approved by the head of the Zhou branch, and he said if you have an opinion...... You can go straight to him. Ma Xiao's forehead was covered with sweat at this time, he never knew that the object in front of him who he had always been jealous of had such oppressive power.
And Su Mu frowned slightly, he glanced at the young man who was looking at him proudly, and sighed slightly. Frankly speaking, he doesn't really care who is in this team, and he doesn't have the idea of announcing personal vendettas, but if he is not A-level, participating in this kind of mission is really no different from sending him to death.
In addition, he already knew that Zhou Xiaofei was the second son of the Zhou family, and he knew very well that the Zhou family had conflicts with his father, so he really didn't want this person to die in the task he was responsible for, because in this way, the headlines of the next internal news would become every minute: 'Su Chong, the head of the South China branch, completely disregarded the overall situation and instructed his subordinates to calculate the son of his rival to death! ’。
And just when Su Mu was about to forcibly get rid of these people, Shuangye suddenly walked over and said with a smile: "Team Leader Su, let them participate." ”
"Huh?" Su Mu looked at her a little strangely, but the little girl just smiled and winked at him without explaining.
Seeing this, Su Mu nodded in the surprised gaze of the snake team: "Then so be it." ”
In an instant, not only the snake team, but even several other team members who didn't know the truth looked at Su Mu and Futaba with strange and ambiguous eyes.
Su Mu also looked at these people, he really couldn't understand what was going on above, such an important operation actually brought such a miscellaneous team. In the team of 18 people, only 6 people came to the South China branch, namely the 4 A-level of Chongming Bird, Futaba and Xiao Tongtong. The remaining 12 people are all from other branches.
Not knowing each other, not knowing each other's abilities, not being able to trust each other, such a team is almost like they have come together for a suicide attack.
Sensing Su Mu's doubts, Futaba walked up to him and explained in a low voice: "Actually, at first, I was only going to let me carry out this operation with Chongming Bird, but after the high-level meeting announced the information about this mission last night, each branch desperately stuffed people into the team. ”
"So you don't have to worry about them?" Su Mu asked in amazement.
Futaba smiled and nodded: "Well, after all, everything is premised on completing the task, Brother Su Mu, you just need to arrange the responsibilities of our core members." ”
"I see." Su Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a smile: "I didn't expect that there was such a corrupt side in the organization, and even the melee merits appeared." ”
"It's not just that, although this operation is mainly executed by Chongmingbird, who has super-standard combat power and equipment, but there are always unforeseen dangers in away battles, so most of the teams do come with the mentality of experience and prevention."
In fact, Futaba didn't say a word.,The reason why the above would agree to this unreasonable arrangement,A big reason is also to prepare to use these people as cannon fodder at a critical moment to keep Chongming Bird.。
Su Mu nodded, and then his gaze fell on the golden door in the center of the hall, which was shining brightly.
I was about to ask how long it would take to finish, but at that moment, the light of the door suddenly dimmed, and then there was a 'click', and a thin crack appeared on the door frame.
The abrupt change made the entire hall quiet, and the face of the technician in charge of maintaining the "door" turned even pale.
What a familiar scene, Su Mu couldn't help laughing, how could he not know what was going on, after all, he had also done such a thing, so he stepped forward and asked, "This can be entered in advance, right?" ”
The unexpected inquiry stunned both of the anxious technicians, but before they could answer, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps at the entrance of the hall.
Su Mu turned around, but saw Director Zhou, Master Fox, and a middle-aged man he had never seen walk in.
And Director Zhou asked the moment he saw Su Mu: "I won't talk nonsense, although there will be no saints in theory at this time, but the danger is unpredictable, are you willing to go in first to support for a period of time?" ”
Su Mu nodded very dryly: "Open the door." ”
"......" Director Zhou looked at him calmly, and then said to the two technicians: "Stop the energy input and open the door." ”
"Yes!" ×2
As the two answers, the light of the door slowly dimmed, and then with a 'boom', the heavy door slowly opened.
Su Mu glanced back at Futaba, Xiaoyi, Mushi, Xiaomo and Xiaotongtong, and his teammates all looked at him calmly, although their eyes were more or less worried, but none of them said anything.
Seeing this, Su Mu couldn't help but laugh: "I'm waiting for you on the other side." ”
After speaking, he pulled out his long sword, and a suffocating aura instantly erupted from his body, and he walked into the door.
