Chapter 144: Hidden Master
"The Dragon King?"
Lin Xi sat on the hospital bed, lowered his head, and chewed on the name carefully, "It's quite arrogant, it's a little interesting." ”
Wu Qiuli slapped him angrily, "Even my life is about to be delivered in the hands of others, and I am still pretending to be forced here." ”
Lin Xi smiled awkwardly, raised his head, and his gaze bypassed Zhu Shiqiu and fell on the faces of Eric and Mongolia, "I wonder if the military and mercenary organizations organized a search?" ”
Between the lines, there is a thick mockery.
In any case, he actually suffered on behalf of others this time, and it was really a calamity that was unreasonable, and if the military and mercenaries didn't say anything about it, it would be a little too out of line.
However, to his surprise, hearing his question, Mongolia and Eric looked at each other and showed a helpless wry smile at the same time.
In the end, it was Eric who spoke: "We also suffered heavy casualties. ”
"Heavy casualties?"
When Lin Xi heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly.
Originally, in his imagination, this attack was not manipulated by the military and mercenary organizations behind the scenes, at least it was acquiesced by them, and the final search and arrest should be a false story, playing peace ball, as long as the scene is bigger, pull a few more teams out for a walk, and then turn around and give a conclusion that the "suspect" escaped, even Lin Xi can't say anything about them, but now, Eric's answer is actually "heavy casualties"?
There are heavy casualties, which means that there are really corpses and wounded people who can be used as ironclad evidence.
Lin Xi didn't believe that with the shrewdness of these two people, they would use the bitter trick of sacrificing the lives of their subordinates to deceive their trust, after all, since you said that there were heavy casualties, it was impossible to only kill ordinary people, not strangers, right? That's too fake. However, Lin Xi knew that in this era, the alien was such a valuable strategic resource, and it would be impossible for a person to die in battle for a long time to be lost in this kind of use.
"Yes, there were many casualties."
Eric's handsome face was gloomy, as if he could drip water, and he said, "Mud Bodhisattva, I know you suspect that we are behind it, and I admit that we do not like you as an unknown factor, but this matter really has nothing to do with us...... In fact, we never imagined that there would be a guy so strong hidden in our jurisdiction! ”
"How strong is that?" Lin Xi sniffed out a hint of something unusual from his words, and asked vigilantly, "What kind of situation?" ”
"Under Commander Meng, a total of three patrols of ten people were dispatched, all equipped with the most advanced standard firearms before the cataclysm, as well as five Inhumans who were responsible for white-knuckle combat, two Inhumans with long-range abilities, and one scout Inhuman, and I also sent fifteen Inhumans on my side, all of whom have undergone paramilitary training, led by the most elite Inhuman captain under me, although the guns carried on their bodies are relatively old, they have also been manually modified, and their power will not be weaker than ordinary standard firearms......"
"Huh?"
Lin Xi estimated this power in his heart and immediately came to the conclusion:
Even if it is oneself, it is not feasible to clash head-on with this armed force, or even to fight guerrilla warfare, and the only choice is to run away.
The next moment, as if he had thought of something, his eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Eric in dismay, "My lord, do you want to tell me that such a team was beaten by the other party and suffered heavy casualties, right?" ”
"I hate to admit it, but that's the way it is."
Eric let out a long breath of turbidity, "In the eight-thousand-meter-long chase battle, the other party not only seemed to be extremely familiar with the terrain, but also used all kinds of unbelievable means and technology to attack us, and the final result was: all the Inhuman warriors sent out by my subordinates were wiped out, and only the elite captain was spared, but his psychology was also deeply stimulated, and it is estimated that he can't ask anything for the time being; The situation on Commander Meng's side is slightly better than mine, but the five white-knuckle battle aliens are also four dead and one seriously injured, the scouts are missing, and no bodies have been found so far, and two long-range aliens are all injured in the eyes, and I am afraid that disability will be inevitable in the future, the only good news is that those ordinary soldiers have not suffered much loss after all......"
"What!"
At this moment, Lin Xi was so shocked that he couldn't speak!
Just now, Little Apple told himself that the ambusher was seriously injured, and in the blink of an eye, Eric sent such news!
With a serious injury, he resisted the joint search of the military and mercenary organizations alone, and fought such brilliant results and proud achievements, this damn dragon king, is it a special person?!
"I don't want to believe it, but it's what it is."
Lin Xi's gaffe, the three Eric were not surprised.
In fact, when he first got the news, he and Mongolia behaved even more exaggerated than Lin Xi, especially Mongolia, who was so angry that they almost lifted the roof of the regiment headquarters.
"Can you tell me more about it?"
Lin Xi asked with a frown, and only then did he really have a bad feeling in his heart, as if helping the military fight the Blue Dragon Gang this time seemed to have provoked an extremely difficult enemy for himself.
"No problem."
Eric nodded.
In his subsequent narration, Lin Xi knew that the ability of this dragon king itself does not seem to be strong, it should just be [ignore], this ability can be used in the way of psychological suggestion, giving people a feeling as if looking at people with their peripheral vision, if you don't pay special attention, it is easy to ignore the past, it can only be said to be a good concealment ability.
But the problem is that this guy seems to be very familiar with the terrain around the famous landscape garden, has a deep study of human psychology and behavior, and has all kinds of terrible technological equipment as assistance. When the other search and arrest units finally reacted and became vigilant, they were confronted with a treacherous thunderstorm that seemed to be all over the mountains, and many times, they were killed and injured without even seeing the back of the enemy.
Later research on the battlefield found that these mines were not dense.
In the process of escaping, it is indeed impossible for the Dragon King to have this ability and lay the entire battlefield into a minefield.
The reason why it gives people such a feeling that the ground is full of traps is mostly through his understanding of human psychology:
First of all, set up an ambush on the road that the pursuers are most likely to pass, and then estimate the evasion route of the opponent, step by step, through inducement, threats, etc., to force the large force of the pursuers into the death trap little by little, so that they mistakenly think that they have entered a minefield, so that they are unable to move forward and facilitate their own escape.
"This guy, his ability is secondary, the key is to grasp people's hearts, it's really terrifying!"
Finally, Eric shook his head and ended his story with such a sentence.
Mongol also shouted beside him, "If only I had known to catch up by opening the encirclement, then his little bit of terror would have no way to stop our people." ”
When Lin Xi heard this, he could only smile bitterly and shook his head.
In hindsight, anyone would do it, but unfortunately it didn't make any sense.
He is now more concerned with another fact that is repeatedly mentioned in Eric's account:
It is that the dragon king seems to be very familiar with the surrounding terrain, and the Shanshui Famous Garden is the only human settlement in the vicinity.
In other words, this person is likely to be someone inside them, or even infiltrated within a military or mercenary organization.
At the thought of always being vigilant against bullets from behind, Lin Xi felt that his head was big for a while, and at the same time, he was deeply worried about the safety of Wu Qiuli and the others.
"Who the hell could it be?"
He raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, but in his mind, he couldn't help but think of those frost-like emotionless eyes.
"Gotta find a way to get him out!"
