Duck made no secret of it: "Yes, but she and I have a way of coping." ”

This sentence is both clear and vague, not denying the relationship between Isabella and the cruel angel, but it does not say it explicitly, only telling the father and son: I know the ins and outs of the matter, but there is no need to tell you, you just need to know that I can handle it.

Both father and son were smart men, and of course they heard Dark's voice, and Bai Sher secretly breathed a sigh of relief, if this outsider confided everything, maybe it would bring more trouble to his family.

So he and his father looked at each other, and the two tacitly agreed not to ask any further.

"But it's chaotic outside, and it's definitely not a wise move to go out and walk around," said Bai Sher. ”

Duck asked, "What's going on outside?"

"After a night of trouble yesterday, the shield was finally repaired. But the town hall and the Holy Mosque seized power, the town hall lost, and now all the colleagues in the town hall are controlled by the people of the Holy Mosque, and if I were there, I guess you won't see me. ”

"Now the Holy Mosque has issued a notice that until the situation is stabilized, all residents must stay at home, not allowed to move, and if their homes are destroyed, they will go to the city hall to gather, and the Holy Mosque will organize and arrange them in a unified manner," Aboud said. ”

Duck frowned: "Martial law in the whole city?"

"Yes. You don't have a certificate of naturalization yet, and if you go out hastily, you will definitely be taken down by the Holy Mosque. ”

Bai Sher said: "Now that the Holy Mosque has all the power, for your safety, it is best to hide for a while." ”

"But I can't. Yesterday's devil could reappear at any time. ””

The father and son were shocked: "Appear at any time?"

"Yes. I feared that my wife alone would not be able to do it, and that I would have to find her immediately, or, get out of town. ”

Bai Sher thought for a moment and said, "It's not easy. Now the streets are full of patrolling cathars, and it is difficult to find people, and there are no expeditions recently, so who would go out of the city in ordinary people?"

Aboud gritted his teeth: "I'll go out and have a look." Anyway, it's not once or twice that I'm crazy, and no one will care about me even if I go out. ”

The two young men said together, "You must be careful!"

"Don't worry, the people in the Holy Mosque have never taken me seriously, and they won't look down on me this time. I'll go back as soon as I go. ”

With that, the old man finished draped and went out.

All that remained in the living room was the restless pacing of two young men.

After a long time, Duck asked, "Mr. Bassher, is there any one named Saron among the nearest outsiders?"

Bai Sher was stunned: "Do you know him?"

Dark's heart is secretly happy, Saron is really here, wash his neck and wait for death. He hurriedly said, "Of course, that's an old acquaintance." Why, he's famous?"

"He is said to be a descendant of His Majesty Faruger's close retainers. He brought with him several epoch-making technologies that were very helpful to the city, so he was appointed as a staff member to the Secretary-General. It can be said that it is on the rise. Hopefully the situation will stabilize soon, and I will help you contact him. ”

"He's been at City Hall, hasn't he?"

"Of course, where else could he go?"

"That's good. So, have you ever heard of a steel slime?"

"Steel ...... What is that? I just know that there were scholars during His Majesty Faruger's reign who studied rock slimes, are they the same creatures?"

Duck shook his head: "The environment here is special, isn't there any special slime?"

Bai Sher thought seriously and shook his head: "There really isn't. At least, there is no such thing in Nehr. Words from outside the city...... Maybe you would ask about the expedition, which seems to be very interested in naturalism?"

"It's not bad, there's nothing wrong with getting to know the world a little more. ”

"In that case, you can do me a favor. ”

"What?"

"Come on. ”

White Usher led Duck to his study and pulled out a pamphlet from the corner of the shelf: "This is for you." ”

"What is this?"

"This is the result of hundreds of years of searching by the expedition. I happened to be in charge of the paperwork for the expedition, and I usually wrote down a few notes when I had nothing to do. It is a record of the creatures that appeared in Kunshabi's womb. From now on, this book is yours. ”

Duck was very happy, Kunshabi was in a very special environment, and the creatures living in this environment were very necessary for research, and George must be very happy. But why did Bwasher give me this gift?

Bai Sher said with a smile: "The city hall can't compete with the Holy Mosque, and in the next period of time, the Holy True Temple will be majestic, I'm afraid, we, the clerks of the city hall, will have a hard time." If these pamphlets containing strange things are known to the Holy Mosque, there will be trouble. That's why I'm not kind enough to give it to you. In case it does, remember to say that you brought it in from the outside - even if it's a favor for me. ”

Darker shook his head with a wry smile.

This Bai Sher, what do you say? There is really a father and there must be a son, each one is more wonderful than the other.

Forget it, even if it is to repay him for saving his life, besides, this booklet does have research value.

"You're welcome. ”

"Well said, well said. So, I still have some things to deal with, you can read the book here first, and I'll ask someone to pour coffee. ”

"Thank you very much. ”

With White Shell gone, Duck began to look through the pamphlets he had left behind. In addition to the bizarre monsters, the pamphlet also uses hymn-like language to celebrate Nehel's martial arts from the Faroug period to the present day, especially the war golems, which have been used in almost every battle to save the city from 200 years ago to the present.

Duck flipped through it, flipped back and looked at it carefully, his brow furrowed.

Beginning about a hundred and fifty years ago, every ten years or so, the city would be subjected to a massive xenomorph raid, and the xenos would descend from the sky and launch a frenzied attack on the city, each time being killed by the war golems. And the losses of the war puppets are also getting bigger and bigger, and now there is not much left.

Judging from what he has written, the essence of the war golem is the same as that of the cruel angel, it is a multi-functional large-scale structure operated by a human. The powertrain relies on magic crystals and has high defense. Four or five battle puppets can crush most of the ground forces, and if loaded with anti-aircraft fire, they pose a great threat to medium and low-altitude troops. It's a great platform for ground weapons. ”

"However, there is a world of difference between its strength and that of a cruel angel. Its operation is entirely dependent on the driver's control of a large number of dense hand switches, and its reaction speed is surprisingly slow, and the supply of magic energy cannot keep up, and its movement speed is very slow. Its armor is as thin as paper to a cruel angel. As long as the cruel angels maneuver, cleaning them up is cruelty. ”

Darker gently closed the booklet.

"There has been no improvement for more than 300 years, and the potential has long been exhausted, and if there is no breakthrough in technology, sooner or later it will be defeated by the attack of xenos. Since fifty years ago, xenos have become more and more targeted, from a sea of miscellaneous fish to a few but elite assaults, and this most recently a high-speed, high-attack xenomorph giant centipede raid, if it weren't for Lala's arrival here, the city would have been burst in...... Wait!"

A thought suddenly crept into my mind, the xenos appeared in the same way every time, falling from the sky, so why not land directly above the city? Keep the attack distance as short as possible, this is the truth that ordinary beasts know.

"There's something in the city that can stop xenomorph invasions! No, no, if there is, how can it be that it can't be pushed out for three hundred years? Could it be that Nehr built a place where xenos can't land?"

He suddenly remembered George's words: Nehr must have been built on a massive, stable tissue of dead cells!

What are dead cells? he asked his sister. Riley's answer is very simple, it's the same type as the calluses on your hands, and that's an organization you can't control.

Nehr is in the womb of Kunshabi, the mother of sandworms, and she has a callus dozens of kilometers in her stomach?

Understood, for her, Nehr was like a thorn in her stomach that had to be pulled out. Those xenos are here to get rid of this callus!

A thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh, you will want to get rid of it quickly, this is certain.

Duck smiled bitterly, Kunshabi, humans are really causing you trouble.

However, there is one more problem.

If Nehr made her uncomfortable, then it was right to attack aggressively from the start, so why gradually increase the attack instead of taking it in one fell swoop?

This pattern of behavior...... Kunshabi is as wise as we are, and you can't think according to the thinking of wild beasts, but according to the thinking of human beings!

Under what circumstances do we leave the thorns in our flesh alone?

No, no living creature threatens the survival of Kunshabi.

A bigger thorn!

And then it was destroyed by the xenomorphs, and Kunshabi's attention turned to the otherwise inconspicuous Nehr?

No, no way!

Think about the situation on the peninsula.

Farouge reigned at the height of the empire, and he mobilized a lot of manpower and material resources to barely manage to sneak into Kunshabi's belly. In other words, it will not be possible unless the forces of state power are mobilized. At that time, it was the period of expansion of the Ala Empire, which country would dare to reach out here? Moreover, it was such an unreliable thing with high cost and low return!

There will be no other city but Nehr.

Well, there must be something that Kunshabi had to get rid of, something that was so widespread in her body that it was almost cleared now, and only Nehr was left!

Find this thing and kill it, and the xenos won't appear again, and Lara won't have to turn into a cruel angel!

Is it in time?

The infighting between the town hall and the Holy Mosque will undoubtedly weaken the city's overall strength, and will Nehr hold up until I find it?

No, I have to go to the second machine, it's there, even if Lala goes berserk, I have a way to deal with it.

I'm sorry George, I'm sorry Letifa, I'm looking for the Steel Rock Slime, yes, I'm going to kill Salon, yes, but I can't do without Lala!

Darker stood up suddenly, and suddenly found Aboud standing behind him, and was startled: "Woo, sir, don't scare me!"

Aboud smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I don't want to disturb you." There's a chance to get out of town. ”

Darker was overjoyed: "Great, what's the chance? What should I do?"

"My son has acquaintances in the City Guard, and I asked him to take you into the logistics team. This afternoon, the City Guard had a routine puppet drill. The drill site is outside the city. ”

"Thank you so much. ”

"I just want you to remember my words. When the city is in danger, don't be stingy with your generosity. ”

Duck was about to reply, when he suddenly heard a loud shout from the teleportation circle outside: "Citizens, citizens of Nehel, you have been deceived!
