Chapter 535: Sniper
"Don't, don't kill me!"
Leda threw down the fighting knife in her hand, knelt on the ground, knelt a few steps towards Dewes in fear, raised her hands above her head, and said tremblingly with a flattering and flattering expression, "I am willing to be your slave." I, I'm willing to do anything for you. ”
Looking at this woman, Dewis frowned slightly and said nothing.
The pride of the aristocracy made it instinctively disgusted with Leda. However, as a creature of darkness, Dewes knew that he wasn't suited to using the same set against his enemies as he did on Leda. This woman is a slut to put it bluntly, any man can get on it, without shame, and can do anything. Having such a slave is equivalent to having an extra domestic pig.
No, no, no, it's absolutely inappropriate to describe it as a pig. There are also captive humans in the dark world, and only men and women with handsome and beautiful faces and well-proportioned bodies can become food and put them on the table of the dark aristocracy. The woman in front of her is not comparable to the word "food". She wasn't pretty, because she had come into contact with too many men, and her body exuded a very nasty aura from the inside out. Dewis was disgusted by the smell and loved virgin flesh, which was the most delicious food in the world. In comparison, Leda is not as good as a carrion.
All right! At least she should be kept alive.
Dewes came to this conclusion in the middle of his head. Although he doesn't like it, there is a great need for such an obedient slut within the family. The dark world also needs human traitors, and Leda is ruthless and cheap enough. This kind of person can be regarded as a trophy to some extent.
As for how to train and nurture her, that is the business of the housekeepers within the family.
As soon as this thought came to mind, Dewes suddenly found that a flame that was not strong suddenly lit up in the dark depths of a few hundred meters away, and instantly turned into a dazzling white light.
There was a sniper hiding there, who was shooting at himself.
This was the last remnant of consciousness in Dewes's mind. Its preoccupied consciousness led it to see the oncoming warhead, which went straight into its skull, plunging the world before Dewes's eyes into complete darkness. Its hands waved in vain in the air, its skulls exploded, and the consciousness of death was so strong that it was only the moment it really fell into darkness that Dewis felt what a terrible situation it was.
The sudden change stunned Leda and every dark warrior present.
In a moment, all the dark warriors suddenly erupted in unison, and their bodies suddenly exerted force, and they all rushed towards the distant shooting point.
A dark warrior had just rushed out more than a dozen meters away, and then turned around and turned back. Its face was full of anger, and it stared at the terrified Leda viciously for a few seconds, then suddenly opened its mouth, bit her neck hard, and gnawed the entire vertebrae, and then threw the lifeless Lida into the air, throwing the corpses that were wandering not far away.
These dark warriors are Dewes's henchmen. When the master is killed, it means dereliction of duty. Returning to the family will definitely be punished. Whether the punishment is severe or light depends entirely on their remedial work in the matter. If the killer can be caught, or killed, the family's anger will become a little lesser. At the very least, you have a chance to survive.
The Dark Warrior who killed Leda is the captain of Dewes's Guard. It believes that Lida was the real cause of the death of the owner. Humans are cunning, and this thing was a trap from the beginning. Perhaps, this woman is the mastermind. She would rather pay for the lives of her companions in exchange for the opportunity to shoot a sniper hiding in the shadows. This is a real poisonous snake, the first evil of the whole thing. In comparison, the sniper who was on the run in the distance didn't matter.
The attraction of the living to the corpse is unquestionable. Leda, who fell to the ground, was not yet dead, and was already surrounded by dense corpses. The broken vertebrae made his mind wander, but he could still feel the countless mouths gnawing at him. This kind of thing is really terrible, although I know that I am about to die, but this kind of death is definitely something that Lida never dreamed of. And just like that, with boundless fear, she was soon overwhelmed by the swarming corpses.
……
In the darkness, a faint black shadow quickly swam among the grass and rocks. The night obscured his movements, and by the time the Dark Warriors rushed in from several directions, the hunters were long gone, leaving only a faint smell of gunsmoke in the air, and a strange smell that it was unclear of what the source was.
Su Hao has been secretly following Gerald and the others.
He saw Gerald kill Bob while he was out fetching water, the feast of human flesh in the camp, and the crowd of corpses rushing into the camp and the three survivors fleeing in panic. No matter what happened, Su Hao didn't intervene, just watched silently from a safe enough distance. He seems to be a ghost, indifferent to a qiē.
There are still benefits to becoming a dark hunter. Su Hao was given a pamphlet published within the guild, with few pages, but it recorded some important knowledge of activities in the gray and black areas. For example, how to use scent to avoid dark creatures; Use fresh flesh to get their attention, and thus create a zào opportunity for yourself; There are also a series of problems such as fetching water and food in the wilderness...... Such a booklet is available to every hunter, but not everyone will implement it according to the method above. After all, dark creatures aren't as idiotic as they seem. Such methods are only suitable for dealing with low-level creatures, and are simply ineffective in the face of high-ranking dark nobles.
On Earth, during the time when he was dealing with zombies in Kunming City, Su Hao accumulated rich survival experience. He knew how to hunt rats and snakes without attracting the attention of the corpses, and knew that the dirty water in the swamp had to be filtered through clothes and clarified before drinking. In the more than 20 days that he has followed Gerald and others, Su Hao has also doubted his thoughts. But when he carefully analyzed every aspect of the matter from beginning to end, he was sure that he was not wrong.
Charlie didn't lie, it was indeed a massive hunt for seven multiples of the Dark Knights. These Dark Knights do possess almost identical blue hedrons in their bodies, which are expensive enough to provoke the nobles of the Empire to scramble over them.
The only difference is that Charlie only said that there were seven Dark Knights, but never said whether they acted collectively or were scattered.
Charlie also said that there are a lot of people involved in this project, and you are only responsible for a small area of surveillance in it, and I am the captain of the whole operation.
These words are true. Therefore, Su Hao and Gerald's squad did not have a captain. Because there is no need for a captain at all, Charlie has been secretly monitoring. The communicator is the key to the whole plan, and with this thing in store, Charlie can know the specific location of each person and can talk to each other at any time.
Of course, Charlie is not as honest as he thinks. He's actually very sinister, more cunning than he thinks.
There will never be any supplies, dry rations and bullets began to give so much, and will continue to be so much later. Even if everyone starved to death, Charlie wouldn't be kind enough to send someone to bring you back. Doing so would only make the plan itself flawed.
Su Hao has a map distributed by the Dark Hunter Guild. Following the route of the truck transporting him, Su Hao found that Gerald's team was at the tipping point between the gray zone and the edge of the black zone. It's rarely visited, but it's not completely off the beaten track. At any given time, there are always a few guys who are not afraid of death and go crazy for money. Here, there is a high chance of encountering the Dark Warrior, which means that you have a chance to obtain the Yellow Crystal. Once you get it, it's easy to leave. Of course, the premise is that they can't be surrounded by a huge number of corpses like the hapless Harvey and Leda.
Since it is a huge hunting program, there are certainly a large number of participants. Su Hao didn't find anyone else nearby, which is indeed logical.
The so-called plan is actually a hoax.
Su Hao didn't know how many people were involved. But it is certain that there should be many hunting teams like himself and Gerald, in the black and gray edges. Hundreds, thousands, or more.
The company "Thunder" should have distributed ammunition and dry rations to everyone. Twenty rounds of ammunition would soon run out in the wilderness, and the biscuits would only last two days. People are trucked deep into the wilderness and it is difficult to get back. The communication received by Harvey and the others, Su Hao also received it. Charlie spoke in a sincere and apologetic tone, repeatedly claiming that there was a problem with the arrangements below, and that new food and ammunition supplies would arrive soon.
Charlie was at the right time, just when the dry food had already been eaten, or was about to run out. The hunters decided they didn't need to worry about it anymore and went further into the wilderness. As everyone knows, when the distance reaches a certain distance, returning becomes a very slim thing.
Fighting, shooting, tyrannical ...... Although there was no sign of any dark creatures at that time, Su Hao bet that there was always a pair of eyes watching Gerald's team closely. Look at them **** Lida, watch them share their food companions, and watch them walk into the abyss step by step.
Under what circumstances do humans behave in a way that is completely in line with biological instinct?
There is only one answer: the danger of absolute fear.
As long as there is anything that can be used as food, humans will not feed on their own kind. Except, of course, for some demons who are addicted to human flesh. The dark creatures are also well aware of this, and Gerald killed Bob precisely because the team has reached a dead end, and if they don't kill anyone, they will starve to death.
Whatever the predators' initial thoughts, whatever the planned goals, people in desperate situations act only instinctively. It is only in that case that their actions are logical, and the vigilance of the dark creatures will be fundamentally removed.
Dewis is a very vigilant dark knight and a dark nobleman from a prominent family. It knew that there were many beings in this world who were stronger than itself, and it was not until it was determined that Harvey and Leda could not pose a threat to itself that Dewis appeared from the shadows, and Su Hao had a chance to make a move.
This is also the opportunity to check the ideal.
Su Hao checked the communicator, and this thing also has a special function, which is to automatically send the coordinates where the carrier is located. Although the previous calls were fake, the communicator itself has become the last hope for the desperate. According to normal logical thinking, when cornered, anyone has to look for a life-saving straw, they will use the communicator to call for support regardless of a qiē, and the content of these communications will also be quickly analyzed by the remote controller, from which to find out whether the scattered pawns have encountered the real hunting target? Or are they just ordinary dark creatures?
There is no difference between the reward of one silver coin and the reward of ten thousand gold coins.
It was just a gimmick, a front to woo the unaware.
The "Thunder" company can send powerful hunters to directly snipe seven Dark Knights. The problem is, these multiples of dark creatures don't just stand there and let you shoot your head one by one. They are very cunning, and their wisdom is not weaker than that of humans. The information sent back from the dark world only indicated the specific time and approximate scope of the family trials of the seven knights in the gray area. If there are enough targeted forces in every region, at least a hundred thousand people are needed. The "Thunder" company can send about the same number of personnel, but the expenses are also a large amount. Even if you can really get seven blue crystals, the profit is very small, and you may even lose money.
If you use one silver coin as an excuse and 10,000 gold coins as a reward to attract a large number of poor ghosts who want to get rich, it will be different. All they need to do is bring a communicator and secretly monitor it, and they can form a large network with low cost. The "Thunder" company has prepared dozens of capable and powerful killer teams, and once the target is identified, it will immediately arrive at the scene by high-speed maglev vehicle. Even if those poor ghosts were really lucky enough to survive until the time they survived, they would never have a chance to get the top prize of 10,000 gold coins.
As for the communicator...... The price of industrial products is very low, as long as they can be made on the production line, the "Thunder" company can buy them at cost price.
It was an extremely cruel, bloody plan. However, as long as you get a good profit, you won't have to worry about it. Settlements like Redstone City are no secret in the official archives of the Empire. The reason why such a deposit can be tolerated is entirely because of the trade-off between the interests of the wealthy and nobles. There are always things that are inconvenient for nobles to do, and the residents of Redstone City are defined by the Imperial Police Department as "criminals", they are equivalent to corpses in the dark world, they are consumables that can be used and do not need to bear any moral guilt.
Compared to the Dark Warrior, Su Hao does not have a speed advantage. The running speed between the two can only be said to be about the same. However, the black particles provide a steady stream of physical energy, and the inducing substances left behind in the sniper location make the besieging dark warriors lose their scent targets. Su Hao circled around the wilderness, and with the help of a set of disguises he had prepared in advance and made of the appearance of a corpse, he picked up the blue spar that originally belonged to Deweiss in the grass.
It was a hazelnut-sized lens, mostly oval-shaped. The hedron itself does not emit light, but because of its high purity and good reflection and refraction, the light hitting its surface multiplies. The world is not completely dark, and even at night, the faint light of the stars and the "moon" can still work. The grass was too deep and too dense, and if it weren't for Su Hao's firm memory of the location where the bullet hit the target, it would be difficult to find that faint blue glow in the messy grass.
In the distance, the Dark Warriors still search for traces of the Hunter. The loyalty of dark creatures to their families is self-evident, and although their own strength is not as strong as that of the Dark Knight, their numerical superiority can make up for their lack of combat power. They run around the wilderness like frightened wild dogs, sometimes lying on the ground to listen carefully, and then rushing in a certain direction. The smell disruptor made their sensitive sense of smell ineffective, and the corpse skin that Su Hao wore on his body had a good camouflage effect, coupled with the common way of thinking of intelligent beings, they all thought that once the sniper succeeded, he would only speed up and stay away from the place of the incident at the first time, but none of the dark warriors thought that Su Hao would actually come back and hide under his nose.
As for the corpses, they only had Leda torn and shredded. Fresh meat and bones are the most beautiful things for them. The Dark Knight's life or death has nothing to do with them, and there is no need to avenge the big shots. What's more, in the eyes of the corpse, Su Hao, who was wrapped in the skin of the corpse, was his companion. The fool lay motionless next to the slain Dark Knight, that is, one less competitor who came to grab meat from him...... It's a pity, why can't there be more such fools? Why is there only one?
Su Hao had already searched Deweis's body quickly. In addition to the hedrons, he also stripped off a set of Dark Knight armor, a high-quality saber, and a weapon with a long barrel that was clearly of the pistol type. The Dark World also has its own technological system, and in some special areas of research is even much more advanced than humans. It's just that because of the different ways of understanding and focusing on the world, dark technology tends to focus on killing effects and abnormal life creation. This means that the weapons produced by the Dark World tend to be more powerful and practical than human products.
Su Hao feels like a scavenger on the earth now, and he wants to pick up everything he sees and put it in his pocket. He is no longer an emperor, nor is he a powerful general or commander on earth. Here, in the third stage of the world, he is just a poor man, a person at the bottom who is struggling on the edge of the two realms. type of weapons.
