Chapter 21: The Secret War
Grant secretly looked at Joey walking in front of him, and he didn't have any shame about his concession just now.
Even if it's a murderer, sometimes you have to know how to advance and retreat, otherwise, in the arrest operation of the Earth Federation, the clown would have died a long time ago, where can he still be as alive as now.
There were more than 1,000 people in the entire Alliance's Area 91 test base, including more than 100 death row prisoners, but only 12 survivors finally entered the shattered starry sky. Among these twelve people, except for Xiaolian and Lin Feng, all the others are death row prisoners, and there are five serial killers.
These five serial killers, in addition to the "dissecter" Joey, the other four murderers have different life trajectories, but they all have a normal social life. In other words, although their worldview and values are different from normal people, they all have their own rules of conduct.
Even the "fireworks" Rand, who is in an antisocial personality, has his own code of conduct. The "Fireworks" Rand is a mortal threat to any human city, as powerful as a humanoid nuclear bomb, but such a murderer is a staunch animal protector.
Among the five killers, only Joey the "Dissecter" has a completely different life trajectory from the others. After the age of eight, Joey, or Qin Lun, has never had a normal human life, and has been tossing and turning between mental hospitals and prisons.
Although Qin Lun was well-read and self-taught in prison, he had neither a goal in life, nor an emotional constraint, nor a code of conduct.
Grant once thought that among the two personalities of the "dissecter", although Joey was cruel and violent, he should deal with it better than the unpredictable Qin Lun. But when he actually sees Joey, the Joker realizes that the "Dissecter" is moody and can't communicate at all.
It may be dangerous not to have a code of conduct, but at least Qin Lun will not hurt people innocently. And Joey is different, the rumored "Dissecter" Joey is a self-protective personality born by Qin Lun's subconscious, specializing in killing. He almost completely unleashed the dark side of Qin Lun's character, and even created a cruel act called "Skeleton Angel" that made other murderers marvel.
Grant is different from Lin Feng and the others, he is not afraid of Joey. However, he is now seriously injured, and Joey is a pervert who doesn't care about life or death at all. In front of the mad dog, if you want to get out of the way, even if you are a murderer, you have to avoid the edge a little.
Grant glanced greedily at the package in Joey's hand, then sighed softly and looked away. He is not in a hurry, it doesn't matter if Joey can't communicate, he still has the opportunity to discuss with Qin Lun to buy this "souvenir".
"Joker, where's Weidenbeller's little bat?" Joey, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and asked, with a strange smile on his face.
"Bats?" Grant was slightly stunned, frowned and asked, "Is it appropriate to gather them over now?" ”
There was a reason why Grant asked this, he had already discussed it with Qin Lun before. If you follow the clues provided by Xiaolian and Lily and receive the hidden branch of the main plot, then you will directly break away from the "Gentlemen's Alliance" and transfer the strategy of the temporary team to the hidden branch. After all, the main quest to assassinate the heads of the three major allies is too difficult, and they can't complete it with their strength.
"Oh, see ......," Joey asked, not paying any more attention to Grant, who had already seen the vampire bat cowering in a corner of the passageway. With just a gesture of his hand, a small bat fluttered its wings and landed on his shoulder.
Joey's eyes flashed red, and he grinned and grabbed the little bat on his shoulder. With a strong pinch of his right hand, the little bat "squeaked" and turned into a puddle of blood and mud. After the bat turned into bloody mud, it still felt like it was still alive, and it erected a few times, slowly turning to ashes, spilling from Joey's fingers.
Vampire bats are made from the flesh and blood of Baron Weidenbele, and the death of each one will bring some damage to the baron, if all the vampire bats are dead, Weidenbeyler will not exist.
These little bats have little intelligence, and they can only transmit simple messages to the baron through guò ultrasound. For example: In the battle between Qin Lun and Jones and Catlyn just now, as long as the vampire bat did not return to Weidenbele, he could only roughly understand that Qin Lun and the two had encountered a battle, but he did not know the object and specific details of the battle.
Before the "Gentlemen's Alliance" dispersed, Weidenbeeller once told everyone that he would release the bats back when he encountered a strong enemy, and then he would combine everyone's intelligence to deduce the hiding place of the heads of the three kingdoms, and then gather everyone to attack.
However, this idea was largely shattered before it could be implemented, as all the members of the "League of Gentlemen" were unable to escape from the encounter with a strong enemy on the way.
Of course, the "League of Gentlemen" did not fail to consider this, so they agreed to kill the little bat around them when a certain person broke through the enemy's interception and found valuable targets or information about unconventional war forces.
Weidenbeeller set a code for all the little bats, and once one of his own people killed the little bat, then the other little bats would receive a specific signal and use their cries to remind them that one of the members had found an important target. No need to wait for the little bats to fly around and waste time.
This is the most important summoning signal, and if the others are not in a situation from which they cannot escape, then they must immediately converge in this direction. The "coalition of gentlemen" will concentrate on killing important targets, or begin to break through and send intelligence back to German headquarters.
Looking at Joey's movements, Grant hesitated a little, although he did not object, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. He didn't quite understand the idea of the "dissecter".
Although this passage is guarded by two superpowers, Jones and Catlin, Grant estimates that there should be no such main target as the head of the three kingdoms in front of him, and there may not even be important scientists for the Allies.
The reason is simple, Dr. Jones is not a strong combat class, and Katrin, as a superpower who mainly focuses on melee combat, has lost all her equipment and her combat power has dropped by almost half. If it weren't for that, Joey would never have won her.
It stands to reason that the two of them, whether they have gained anything in the front or not, should not gather the rest of the "Gentlemen's Alliance". Instead, they wanted to take advantage of the other members of the "Gentlemen's Alliance" to contain the "Justice League" in various underground passages, break away from the "Gentlemen's Alliance" and send the information obtained back to Berlin.
You must know that their stay in this world has only been about two weeks, and now almost ten days have passed. If they pick up a hidden branch task and don't add extra time, they won't have enough time left to complete other tasks.
In this case, completing a hidden branch of the main story first will at least not make them a mission failure penalty.
"Hehe, don't worry, the hidden branch will definitely have extra time to stay!" Joey seemed to know what Grant was worried about, and turned his head with a strange smile and said, "If the main quest fails, I will be responsible for making up for the 55 life souls you lost!" ”
"I don't need anyone else to help me make decisions!" Grant's face sank, and he said slowly, "Forget it this time, but I hope you can give me an explanation next time before you act!" ”
"I don't like to explain anything to idiots!" Joey bared her teeth and said coldly.
Grant's face darkened completely, and he gradually slowed down, with a fierce light in his eyes, and his big hand reached into his arms and pinched the human skin mask. Although the two were still running in the passage, the atmosphere around them slowly solidified, and a cold killing intent flowed between them.
Joey, who took the lead in galloping forward, began to tense his body, and the white bandage on his waist once again oozed bright blood stains. Grant's eyes froze, and he suddenly noticed that Joey not only had blood stains on the front of his abdomen, but also on his back and waist.
"The wound in his abdomen is a penetrating wound! The woman named Katrin pierced his lower abdomen before she died! Grant's pupils shrunk into pinholes, and his face was a little cloudy, "With such a serious injury on his back, he still dares to provoke me, does he really want to fight here?" ”
The atmosphere between the two of them became more and more stiff, but there were faint human voices in front of the passage, which immediately attracted the attention of the two murderers, and the atmosphere slowly eased.
……
Room 3 of the underground shelter is now a hectic scene. The real yàn room is littered with research equipment, and there is a huge barrel tempered glass cabin in the center of the venue. More than a dozen researchers in white coats were scrambling to burn the data in the real room.
Dr. Indiana Jones, one of the two superpowers responsible for covering them, had sent them a warning a few minutes earlier, asking the researchers to evacuate the area immediately and move to another location through a secret passage.
There are no important people in the researchers, and there is some panic after receiving the alert. Some of the scientists heeded Dr. Jones's advice and left the secret tunnel.
But there are more than a dozen people who are not pure scientists, they belong to the military, they are half soldiers. These people can only give a helping hand to scientists in normal times, but their will to fight is stronger than that of scientists, and they still want to destroy the data in the real room first, and then retreat.
Of course, they didn't want to die, at this time, there happened to be a superpowered person in the real yàn room, who rushed to this real yàn room from the ground.
This superpowered person is wearing a black tuxedo short skirt, a black and gold crown headdress, black hair and black eyes, and he looks cold and arrogant like a petite and cute girl queen.
The black-haired girl carries a rectangular broad-bladed straight knife with a thick blade behind her. In fact, this knife is a comprehensive magic weapon with a steel whip and a straight knife, with a hollow handle and a firearm function when folded.
The girl frowned and looked at these military researchers, her expression a little displeased. She was just here to find her teachers, not to cover for them. These researchers took advantage of her kindness and dragged her here so that they could destroy the research materials that were not the most important.
"Bang!" With a loud bang, the iron door of the real yàn room exploded into the room with gravel, and in the confused dust, two figures appeared at the door of the real yàn room.
