Chapter 179: Lao Tzu is not a city soldier king
One kilometer away from the ancient city of Xidian, in a temporary base.
The leaders of the task force and the Ninth Division were exchanging opinions quickly, and although there were no overly harsh words, the conversation was still at an impasse from time to time.
If it weren't for Xu Nan playing the role of lubricant well, he doubted that Lao Hai and Xue Beicheng would have been cold and violent.
Both sides are trying to make their own people play a more important role in this rescue.
At this time, Xu Nan finally understood why Zhang Jian specified and asked him to be the position of this liaison.
Dare to love is a round.
This is also the advantage of having a high charm value, although it will not directly bend Major General Xue, at least it can make the other party's attitude a little better.
Xu Nan is very dissatisfied with this positioning!
Can you only be a courtesan? Although he is a courtesan, he is not bad at it.
Finally, after a war of words, the two sides reached an agreement for the time being.
The operation was carried out by the two sides in unison, but there was a meticulous division of labor: the members of the special group were responsible for the investigation and hunting down of the cultists, while the people of the ninth department were responsible for the rescue of tourists and the cleaning of the wandering monsters summoned by the cultists near the ancient city of Xidian.
Because of the involvement of cultists, the Qianmang Society still found a lot of scholars with professional knowledge to come to offer advice, and one of them was a middle-aged man with a polite manner, who was said to be an expert in theology.
"I lived for two years in the City of Scholars of the Universal World, mainly in ancient theology."
The expert noted: "In fact, the current gods of the world are not the first gods since the birth of the world. According to the statistics of the City of Scholars, the ruler of the universal world has changed at least three times. ”
"According to the current clues, the insignia and imprints on those cultists can basically be determined to be blood worshippers, that is, the well-known believers of the Seven Ancient Gods."
"You may be confused, but generally speaking, gods and beliefs are exclusive, and it is rare for believers of several gods to act at the same time. But the Seven Gods of the Ancients are an exception, because although they are seven evil gods, when they are about to be killed, they use the vows and covenants of their lives to choose to live and die together. In this way, the Seven Gods of the Ancients are actually a relationship of both prosperity and loss. There are not many records of them in the City of Scholars, and the only thing that is certain is that their divine kingdom is basically shattered, and the seven gods themselves are like candles in the wind, and it is difficult to protect themselves. The reason why there are blood worshippers is because when the gods tried to kill the seven gods, some of the flesh and blood of the seven gods entered the mortal world, affecting many creatures whose willpower was not firm, among which humans were the most. ”
"According to the speculation of scholars in Xuecheng, every action of the Blood Worshippers is guided by the Seven Ancient Gods, and it is impossible for them to do things aimlessly, after all, there are fewer and fewer disciples affected by the evil gods, in a sense, if the Blood Worshippers are consumed, the Ancient Seven Gods can only sit and wait for the fall. And the purpose of the actions of the Blood Worshippers is basically to work for the resurrection of the Seven Ancient Gods......"
Xu Nan listened carefully.
This expert obviously knows a lot about the ancient gods, and although his knowledge can't directly help solve this puzzle, it at least gives the people of the special group and the nine parts a general idea.
After all, they are facing enemies from another world, and they are cultists who are very rare in other worlds.
"Resurrection...... The ancient city of Xidian, what resources are worth fighting for? ”
"The Seven Ancient Gods are now dormant and suspended animation, and only some very shallow consciousness is calling for believers, and if you put it carefully, it is much weaker than the previous Tiamas ...... Tiamas didn't use drastic means to invade Earth, so why did the blood worshippers do it? ”
Xu Nan fell into deep thought, and he vaguely felt that the Blood Worshippers were probably plotting a very terrible conspiracy.
He even wanted to go back to Paradise Lost to buy information, but unfortunately the task was too tight, he couldn't pull out at all, and before he could think about it for long, the rest of the people had already finished preparing and shouted to Xu Nan to prepare to go.
This made Xu Nan very unhappy.
What about making yourself a courtesan? After the communication, you still have to go into battle to fight monsters in person? Two jobs in one person?
He looked at Lao Hai seriously: "I don't think this is good. ”
"At the very least, we need to double our salaries and bonuses."
……
Outside the ancient city of Xidian, the two groups of people from the Special Group and the Nine Divisions were in full swing.
The special team was personally led by the belated Zhang Jian, who was promoted to the head of the branch of H City in a recent job transfer, half a level higher than Lao Hai. As a kendo professional, he is a super bug profession, and although he is in a high position, he is still accustomed to going into battle in person when he encounters danger.
After all, this matter is related to the status of the Qianmang Society and the special group, and they cannot be sloppy.
To Xu Nan's surprise, there were many familiar faces among the people in this special operation: Zheng Xie, who finally didn't ride a kangaroo this time, and I don't know where he stuffed his mount; Jiang Yuanchi, Senior Sister Jiang didn't actually enter the special group, she belongs to the kind that was temporarily called in to help, after all, in the mage department, she is also a very outstanding character; There is also Xu Nan's partner, Liu Erdao, a third-order ranger, whose combat effectiveness is also very amazing.
Xu Nan watched them get in the car and leave with a resentful face, and Zheng Xie asked him how Xin'er was before leaving...... Naturally, he was slapped back by Xu Nan with a slap in the air.
The special team will enter through the fire escape on the west side of the ancient city, where they have found traces of the cultists' activities, and the results of the preliminary investigation also show that the cultists seem to be arranging some kind of rituals there!
"Okay, Xu Nan, it's time for us to go."
General Xue Beicheng changed into a combat uniform, his face was still calm and calm, just like Zhang Jian, whether it was for Xue Beicheng or his top boss Wen Zipi, this was a battle in which the Nine Divisions made a name for themselves, and there was no room for loss!
Xu Nan's job changed from a liaison (courtesan) to a consultant (tour guide) who cooperated with the soldiers of the Ninth Department to rescue hostages......?
After all, they still have Qin Lele's internal response, and General Xue felt that if Xu Nan helped, things might be easier, so he formally proposed an invitation to Zhang Jian to let Xu Nan cooperate with them temporarily.
Zhang Jian meaningfully chose to agree, and then secretly instructed Xu Nan to take care of the overall situation.
At that time, many professionals in the tent looked at Xu Nan with strange eyes, Xu Nan was so angry, if it wasn't for the fact that he also wanted to find Qin Lele as soon as possible and ensure her safety, he would really have left it!
Are you really addicted to using your looks?
This face-looking society is really sad!
……
In the dark sewers, Xu Nan followed General Xue's footsteps and moved forward quickly.
The rescue personnel of the nine departments are divided into three groups, and Xu Nan's A group has a total of nine people, all of whom are said to be professionals from special forces, who are very capable of fighting, and also have experience in hostage rescue...... Well, acting experience.
After all, after so many years of peace, there are very few madmen like the Blood Cultists who dare to hold more than 50 people hostage. If it weren't for the interference of the gods, the helicopters and snipers would have killed them in the morning.
Fortunately, the Bloodcultists' magical enchantments also have loopholes.
After careful research, the people of the Nine Divisions found an old sewer in the ancient city of Xidian, from which they could reach the back alley of the haunted house where the tourists were arrested.
Their goal is to try to rescue the tourists without alarming the Bloodworshippers. The mission of killing the cultists was entrusted to the special group.
However, just in case, General Xue still made a lot of preparations.
In the whole process of the organization, Xu Nan couldn't help but sigh at the importance of professionalism.
Although the people of the Qianmang Society have experienced the training camp and are also professionals with extraordinary strength, compared to the soldiers, they are always a little worse. It can only be said that many things are indeed not cultivated overnight.
Even in the efficient march, Xu Nan obviously has quite excellent physical fitness, but he can't keep up with the rhythm of the nine people.
"Take a three-minute break." General Xue suddenly ordered.
There was a sharp turn in the sewer ahead, and they had already entered the ancient city of Xidian, a distance of up to eight hundred meters from the ghost.
"Contact that friend of yours." General Xue whispered, "Let her try to observe the situation without disturbing the Blood Cultists." ”
Xu Nan nodded.
Half an hour ago, Qin Lele replied, and the actions of the special group were also carried out with the support of Qin Lele's intelligence. She found some cultists in the ancient city of Xidian performing some kind of ritual, but she didn't dare to get too close, after all, this kind of ritual often carries a very strong aggressiveness, even if the stealth ability of the flying thief is very strong, it is easy to be recognized.
Under Xu Nan's persuasion, Qin Lele returned to the basement of the haunted house and accompanied Ms. Fang, who was quite calm.
"What's going on now? I need a little bit of information from you about the haunted house. ”
Xu Nan sent a message quickly.
[Qin Lele: Wow! Xu Nan, are you finally going to come over and save the beauty heroically? You must know that I have endured it for a long time, and those blood worshippers look very weak......]
Xu Nan smiled: Although you Qin Lele is the school flower of the Foreign Chinese Experimental Middle School, Lao Tzu is not the king of urban special forces, and the bloody and boring drama of heroes saving the United States is not interested!
I'm just a courtesan!
Just take charge of your own work.
"Speak well! I ask you about the situation in the haunted house! Xu Nan asked.
[Qin Lele: That's it in the haunted house! Where a group of people are sleeping together, it seems that there are only two or three stupid people in red clothes guarding it, I really think I can fight back! 】
[Wait, there seems to be strange footsteps, hehe, could it be those two stupid guys?] I'm going to see ......]
A bad feeling rose in Xu Nan's heart. In the next second, his phone shook:
"Xu Nan, ask for ......"
Xu Nan was suddenly startled, and he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, he pulled up the magic carpet and rushed!
He didn't dare to imagine if something happened to Qin Lele......
"Keep up!" Although General Xue didn't understand what was happening, he responded quickly.
"Yes!" The remaining seven spread their legs and prepared to run.
They thought they could keep up with Xu Nan, but in the blink of an eye, they couldn't even eat Xu Nan's exhaust.
"This ......"
Xue Beicheng was also a little dumbfounded.
