Chapter 013: The Emperor's New Outfit (Ask for Collection Recommendation!) )
Deep in the desert, a sandstorm is raging, and the whining wind is like tens of thousands of beasts roaring in unison.
Beneath the dust, a broken communicator rustled, and urgent shouts were still coming out intermittently:
"Hyenas, hyenas, wolves call, please call back...... Why launch NX5...... This is the wolf, please reply ......"
A strange foot covered in scales stepped on it, the communicator shattered, and the shouting stopped.
Next to the shattered communicator, a charred corpse was half-buried in the sand. It was a soldier who had died on the battlefield, and judging by the remaining emblems, he should have belonged to the hyena commando of the 4th Infantry Division of the Western Theater of the Earth Alliance Army.
This is a world-famous special forces, even more famous than the former Navy SEALs. Over the past decade, they have wiped out hundreds of zombie riots in the African theater. They are well-armed, their tactics are varied, and each of the lads has been through a hundred battles, which can be called the elite of the best.
But now, this elite force of 125 people has been wiped out, and none of them have survived!
This must have been an extremely sudden turn of events, as the Hyena Commandos were unable to even send back information about the battle in time, and the other nine units that were fighting the zombies only received a call at the beginning claiming that the Hyena Commandos had encountered alien creatures fifteen kilometers east of the Bangu Cemetery, and then an inexplicable nuclear explosion followed.
The Coalition command reacted quickly enough to cover up the unclear truth in the first place. The spokesman immediately came forward to be interviewed by the news media, claiming that this was a planned attack on zombies, and that its main purpose was to test the power of the NX5 portable nuclear bomb, and that everything was under control, and there was no need for the public to panic about it......
This is not a self-deceptive statement, because the military itself also believes that this is just an accident, after all, the NX5 has only been equipped for less than two years, and its instability and excessive radiation lethality have been criticized by military experts, and if there is a misoperation, it is indeed easy to cause a devastating blow to itself.
However, when the military re-enters the area of the nuclear bomb two months later, it will surely find that this statement is full of errors and omissions. Because then they will see with their own eyes a terrible phenomenon - the warriors who died unexpectedly have been reduced to dried corpses, the flesh of the corpses has shrunk into black carbon particles, and even the slightest touch of bones will turn to ashes......
"This is the first time that the Earth Alliance Army has used the NX5 portable nuclear bomb in actual combat, and judging from the footage transmitted from the scene, the power is indeed amazing."
On the dome of the dock casino, the TV commentator was still explaining with great interest: "The explosion has a power of 50,000 tons ** equivalent, covering a radius of nearly two kilometers!" With the widespread adoption of this weapon, I can't imagine any other way for those filthy monsters to interfere with our normal lives, and now I can boldly claim that the zombie apocalypse is near......"
Not many people were happy to pay attention to the excitement of the narrator, and people were used to the battle against zombies. They are more concerned about pleasure and how to better entertain their lives in this casino.
Sure enough, within two seconds, the dome screen switched back again, and what appeared in the three-dimensional light and shadow was a middle-aged black man in a suit with a slightly fat figure. The introductory text floating in the screen shows that he is none other than the current head coach of the Arsenal team and the former king of Arsenal's goalscorers, 55-year-old Thierry Henley.
At the instigation of the strong man in black, the waitress girl straightened her chest and took Wu Ming's attention back.
"Please confirm your bet, 50 million bets on Arsenal to win away, 4 to 11, right?"
She smiled and reminded as if it weren't a trap at all.
Before Wu Ming could answer, Yaji suddenly showed an expression like waking up from a dream: "I just reacted, is this my choice for you?" That's just nonsense! The training base of the arsenal was attacked by zombies three years ago, and more than half of the main force has been played, and the reconstruction has not yet been completed, if they can win, unless the former King of Henry himself plays! ”
Turkey Head's words won the approval of the connoisseurs, as Arsenal lost three goals at home in the first leg against the famously brave former Turkish powerhouse Galatassa, who returned to Istampur like a bunch of madmen who couldn't die.
"Cancel it, choose another team." Someone reminded with a smile, "If you really have a special affection for the team from the Fa Lanxi region, even if you want to return Auxerre, you have to be more sure." Play this kind of game, but don't be greedy. ”
"But I think it's better to trust your first instincts."
Wu Ming had already smiled and clicked on the confirmation option, and the 50 million chips were also returned to the waitress girl at the same time, "And although I don't know much, it happens to be a fan of the Arsenal, especially the fan of that coach." He was born in the former country of Enamel, and he will bring a lot of Falanci characteristics to this team, in this sense, it is a choice that the two of us can't run away, and fate should be like this. ”
The corners of Yaji's mouth were already twitching, and it looked like she was going to faint to the ground in the next second: "You're so crazy, this is too rash, why don't you think about it anymore?!" I must have made some mistake at the time to recommend such a team to you......"
"Rest assured, rest assured." Wu Ming patted Yaji on the shoulder, smiled indifferently and said, "Maybe I will tell you that the former King of Highbury will really play in person and score his 230th goal for the Arsenal." ”
There was not a word more popping out of Yaji's mouth, because the bet had been confirmed, and he had handed over the huge amount of money before he even had it, and all he could do was pray for God's blessing. However, there is one thing that Yaji has never figured out, why he was confused at such a critical moment, and so many choices chose a big upset.
The reason for this is not clear to anyone except Wu Ming, because it was deliberately done by him and the result of his secret manipulation.
From the moment Wu Ming put his palm on Yaji's shoulder, the result of the choice had actually been decided, because at that moment, Yaji's subconscious had already been interfered with.
This is a very common technique of fresh meat fighters, and it is a manifestation of the ability of consciousness to control nerve reflexes. Although after achieving the crossing, the consciousness energy in Wu Ming's body was exhausted, and there was only 0.7% of the strength left, under normal circumstances, it would not be able to affect the surrounding targets at all.
But fortunately, Yaji has been in an extremely flustered mental state, defenseless against Wu Ming, and even extremely dependent on it to some extent, which just fulfills the control of the subconscious, otherwise even if Wu Ming is in the best physical condition, it will be difficult to complete this little trick, because the human nervous system is beyond imagination, even if the dark neurons have not yet awakened, its defense system is difficult to overcome.
As for choosing the arsenal as the object of betting, it is not that Wu Ming has preserved such a result in the historical data he has mastered, and he wants to take this opportunity to make a big profit. On the contrary, in fact, in the process of knowledge transmission before the crossing, those irrelevant content are simply excluded, not to mention that in the world of fresh meat, it is impossible for a project like football to entertain the public to circulate in private, and it has long been abandoned by history.
But the arsenal team is extremely crucial, because it is closely related to one person, and Wu Ming is very sure that in a few days, he will have a great chance to meet this key person.
In Wu Ming's plan, the preparation work of these two days will revolve around that key person, and it may have taken some twists and turns, but now it seems that the shortcut has appeared, and after completing this bet that is likely to lose all his money, as long as he takes advantage of the trend, the preparation will be perfect!
The gamblers were so happy that the gamblers laughed unusually happily, and the most obvious of them was the man in black. He looked a little excited, and his fierce and vicious expression narrowed down, as if he had just received a reward from his master's family, and the prize was a lump of human if it were not meat and bones stained with soup.
"This game will be held at 8 p.m., and I will apply to broadcast it live here, so you are welcome to come and watch, and maybe with your support, good luck will really befall our guests."
The strong man in black raised his voice to invite the gamblers, but unfortunately the schadenfreude smile was clear to anyone.
Wu Ming didn't mind, and after calming Yaji's emotions, he made another reluctant request to the master.
"Hearing you say that, I'm really a little impatient." Wu Ming stood in front of the strong man in black and said with a smile, "But if you want to be watched, this dress is not very appropriate." I remember that Minister Mastiff seemed to mention that you want to get me a set of clothes that fit, and this promise should still take effect, right? ”
The strong man in black had a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "Of course it works, bikini or skirt?" In fact, in my opinion, you are quite decent at the moment, and it would be more perfect if you changed it a little more fat. ”
In the laughter, Wu Ming was unmoved.
"I can't take your advice because those outfits don't help me cheer for my team."
Wu Ming replied solemnly, raising his hand and pointing at the dome. There's a replay of history going on, and the black manager is running like the wind on the pitch.
"As a true fan, I should have worn the same as the king – the red and white number 14 jersey! That's not that difficult, is it? ”
As soon as these words came out, the laughter erupted in an uncontrollable momentum. It was as if people had foreseen the scene: a funny clown in a football shirt jumped and yelled in a suit and leather shoes......
It must have been spectacular!
