"Hey! Hercules, why are you walking so fast? Tianxuan reacted and hurriedly chased after him.

Hercules, however, paid no attention to anyone at all, and walked straight towards the central hub with a blank face.

"Is he stupid?" Tianxuan touched his chin and followed while thinking.

When Hercules arrived at the central hub, Black hurriedly greeted him and greeted him with a smile: "Yo, Hercules, we are sending someone to look for you, you are back by yourself!" ”

"Hmm!" Hercules replied coldly, then found a place to sit down, and then closed his eyes and said nothing.

It happened that Tianxuan also came back with someone, and Blake hurriedly asked, "Tianxuan, what happened?" How did Hercules become like this! ”

Tianxuan shook his head and said, "I don't know why, since he killed him, Akagi, Piano, and then he has become like this after killing Akame Tsuyo. ”

"So what the hell happened?" Blake then asked.

Tianxuan rolled his eyes upwards at this time, recalling the scene just now: it seemed that Akame Tsuyoshi had said something in Hercules' ear, and then they went into the woods, and after a while, Hercules came out of it and declared that Akame Tsuyoshi had hung up.

"Should I tell Blake or not?" Tianxuan's heart was entangled, and after some ideological struggle, he said slowly: "Eh, I went back just now, and I didn't find anything abnormal. ”

"That's weird!" Blake looked confused.

"Don't think about it so much, maybe he's tired, and he'll be fine in two days!" As he spoke, Tianxuan patted Blake on the shoulder.

Just as Tengen and Blake were about to leave Hercules, he suddenly closed his eyes and said, "Blake, I have something important to tell you. ”

Hearing Hercules call himself, Blake quickly turned his head and asked, "Yo, how are you talking now, if there is anything important, just say it." ”

"Although the trench ronin has been wiped out by us, there are still remnants that need to be cleaned up."

"I know this!"

"No, you don't know, they'll be coming back soon."

"What?" Blake looked surprised when he heard this, and quickly asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"We have to close the gap, or there will be a steady stream of trench ronins coming here."

What do you mean by that? Where the hell do trench ronins come from? Blake asked, puzzled.

Hercules, whose eyes were still closed, just stretched out the fingers of his right hand and said to the top, "Get down from above." ”

"Above? I heard you right! Blake was shocked.

"You heard it right, it was from above, they came here from the ocean by the sea column. They drilled the top of this central hub, which is why these hundreds of columns of sea water came out. Hercules said coldly, still with his eyes closed.

At this time, Tianxuan's eyebrows were raised high, his upper and lower eyelids kept swinging, and his eyes opened wide and exclaimed, "You mean to say that the trench ronin came here from the ocean through those blue substances on top of us?" ”

"Hmmm! That's the thing! ”

"Come, come, come! Tell us what it is. Blake looked a little anxious and flustered.

"I'll just sit here and say! I really don't want to move! ”

"Good, good! Then you just sit there and say! Blake was anxious, but he could only listen patiently.

"Tianxuan!" Hercules shouted with his eyes closed.

"I'm here!"

"Remember when we flew to the top of the sea column using a stereo maneuver?"

"Remember!"

"Do you know what that weird blue gel is?"

"What is it?"

Hercules told them slowly: "That's a sponge, a sponge that grows on the bottom of the sea, and it's about a few hundred meters thick. ”

“What？ Is there such a large sponge? Tianxuan said incredulously.

"It's true that there are such large animals that devour all kinds of creatures, and whatever they get into a sponge, they quickly turn into their body tissues." Hercules explained.

"So horrible? So how did the trench ronin get through the sponge buffer zone of several hundred meters? Tianxuan asked suspiciously.

"Holocaust! They were thrown into a sponge and buried alive by an undersea race called Atlantis, but because there were so many of them, they leaked into the ground along with the water as excrement. ”

"I see, no wonder the previous information about their strength was inaccurate, and there was a large number of sneak attackers suddenly popping up inside the central hub." Tianxuan suddenly realized at this time and was amazed.

"Yes! I used to wonder how well defended and somehow such a bunch of troublemakers came up. Blake chimed in.

"So, Akame Tsuyo used the reactor to melt the rock layers and destroy the sponge's tissue, so that more trench ronins could survive and reach our underground world." Hercules added.

Hearing this, Blake couldn't bear it anymore, and said to himself: "This is shocking news, I have to report this situation to the commander-in-chief quickly." With that, he quickly pulled out his communicator and tried to get in touch with Radamandis.

After the call was connected, Radamandis looked at Blake with a panicked look and asked, "What happened to Blake, why are you so flustered." ”

"Commander-in-chief, something terrible has happened...... Blake then reported the information that Hercules had just said to Radamandis verbatim.

After listening to Blake's report, Radamandis, who was supposed to feel the joy of the victory in the battle, immediately became heavy again, and his face became ugly. After a moment, he came up with a sentence: "Blake, you quickly lead people to firmly control the central hub, and once you find that the sea column appears in the trench, the Ronin survivors will be killed immediately." Later, I will telegraph the army to feel that you are here. ”

"Order! But what about the trench buffer zone, commander-in-chief? Blake asked.

"No hurry, I'll report the matter right away from the central chamber in Brenthal, and I think an expert will be sent to deal with it soon. So, before you do that, you have to make sure that nothing goes wrong there. Do you understand? ”

"Got it!"

"Hmmm! That's hard work for you! I will immediately hand over to you the command of the troops entering the Heidan area. That's it! ”

After the call, Blake's face immediately turned serious, and he said to the crowd: "Everyone, I am deeply sorry, you can't rest now, the battle is not over yet, there are important things waiting for us to do. ”

"Order!" Everyone stood up almost at the same time after Blake's words, and the berserkers who had just now wilted up were now in good spirits again. When Tianxuan saw their spirit, he couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart.

The next mission, in fact, is not too dangerous, just constantly patrolling back and forth between hundreds of sea columns, as long as there are trench ronin survivors appearing, they will be killed immediately.

After they patrolled for more than an hour, a "gurgling" sound came from some of the sea columns.

"Enemy Spotting!" Someone shouted.

So, the berserkers patrolling around hurriedly rushed to the column of sea where something strange happened. Sure enough, the patrol pulled out several trench ronin survivors from the sea column. At this time, these survivors are estimated to have just been excreted by the sponge, and they are all dizzy and unstable on their feet.

"Kill them!" At the command of the leader, these trench ronins who had just congratulated themselves on their survival died under the berserker's knife before they could react.

Of course, at the beginning, due to Blake's lack of manpower, a few trench ronins took the opportunity to run away. But when the large army was all assembled, the central hub was surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, and after that, as long as the trench ronin was pulled out, none of them would survive.

"Isn't that too cruel?" Tianxuan looked at the corpses of the trench ronins that were piling up, and he couldn't look at it.

"Either he dies or I die! Have you forgotten the damage that the trench ronins have done to us? Blake retorted righteously.

"But these survivors just came here, and they were killed without doing anything, which is too arbitrary!" Tianxuan was not convinced, so he argued with reason.

"It's hard for us to wait for them to do harm to us before we fight back. What a price we have paid for this attack on the Heidan region, you are also in it, you should be able to see it! ”

"That being said, I always feel ......," Tianxuan replied with some sadness.

Blake interrupted Tianxuan and said solemnly: "It was too laissez-faire to let these trench prodigians cause such a big sacrifice today. So, this time we can't raise tigers. ”

The words were all said for this part, and Tianxuan also defended. But looking at the survivors who were scurrying around with their heads in their hands, trying to escape, they had just gained a glimmer of hope for survival, and immediately fell into the fear of death again.

Seeing the survivors fall to the ground helplessly one by one, twitching, Tianxuan tugged at his heart with his left hand, and felt a faint pain in his heart. After a few moments, he couldn't take it anymore, so he told Blake to get some air, and then took his leave.

When he came to the outside of the central hub, Tianxuan found a secluded place and took a deep breath with his eyes closed alone, hoping that he could be quiet. However, within a few minutes, a hand gently pressed his shoulder.

So, when he turned his head and saw that it was Hercules, he asked, "Why did you come with you?" Isn't it clear what is left? ”

Hercules smiled faintly and said, "Thank you! ”

"Thank me for what?"

"When Blake asked you just now, thank you for covering it up for me."

"Huh?" Tianxuan opened his mouth and said in surprise: "Could it be that Akame Tsuyoshi is really not dead?" ”

"Huh!" Hercules smiled.

"Are you not dead?" Tianxuan asked.

"Do you think you're alive or dead?"

"Cut, you're going to ask me to get up!" Tianxuan shook his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll help you keep this secret." Sometimes killing them all is not necessarily something to be advocated. ”

Then, Hercules and Tianxuan looked at each other for a moment, and couldn't help but laugh at each other.
