Volume VI: The North African Lion Chapter 4

Chapter 4

The North African Lion passed through the Strait of Gibraltar, and some members of the Black Gold Maniac occasionally talked about working with the Baroque upon arrival in the United Kingdom. Some people www.biquge.info speculate that the Baroque would send a ship to meet them. If the Baroque did send a ship to meet them, it would be a problem. I can't wait any longer, I have to find that batch of viruses right away.

It was at this critical moment that Anthony got in touch with me, and I learned that his team had secretly set up their base in an old foundry outside of St. London. It was also learned that Baroque and Ralph would meet the North African Lion in the port of St. London two days before it arrived. I was relieved that the Baroque would not send ships to meet the North African Lion for the time being. Hopefully, we'll have enough time to find that virus, and we'll be sure to destroy the North African Lion before it enters British UK waters, and if necessary, we'll blow up and sink the ship.

I was relieved that after leaving the Strait of Gibraltar, Thomas would be of little use to us, and that he alone would only stall for time, so I put him under house arrest in his room, forbade him to have any contact with the black and gold fanatics, and kept him under close 24-hour surveillance. In addition, I also admitted that he was not injected with a virus, but a vaccine specifically designed to restrain the sixth desire. When he found out, he finally didn't have to worry about his life, but he was very annoyed because we played him and kept him firmly in our hands. In this way, we can't let him out, lest he leak the news, and if he dares to do something out of the ordinary, I will not hesitate to kill him.

I tried every means to find out the whereabouts of the virus, but every time it was to no avail, and we couldn't always search around the ship because it would attract people's attention. What should I do? I decided to approach Zola's security guards first and get on good terms with them. So we set our eyes on Paul Ricardo, the ship's security captain. We decided to get close to him, but it took time, and time waits for no one, and seeing that the North African Lion is getting closer and closer to St. London by the day, we have to hurry.

Lately, Paul has been hanging out at the pub a lot, because he has entrusted the security of the ship to his men, and his job is just a formality.

At the critical moment, Isabel stepped up, and she decided to use her beauty to seduce Paul into the bait?

That night, Paul was very drunk in the bar, and he was talking completely nonsense, and whoever greeted him, he would definitely scold whoever greeted him, unreasonable, and the people who were scolded were all men. Frank and I were sitting not far from him. Isabel felt her chance had come and she decided to give it a try, and I made a V-sign to her at the time, hoping that everything went well for our plans.

Isabel also deliberately changed into a black bandeau gown, smeared crimson lipstick, and came to Paul, who stared at her with those deeply drunk and **** eyes. She also gave Paul a sexy smile and sat next to him by the way. "Sweetheart, can you have a drink with me?" she said, pouring Paul a glass of wine.

Paul took the cup, drank it all, **** instantly covered his face, and then said: "I was in a bad mood today, but after drinking your wine, I feel much better." What's your name, pretty young lady?"

"I'll tell you later. ”

"Tonight...... Would you like to let you sleep with me all night?"

Isabel looked embarrassed at me.

"Would you like?" Paul asked, forcibly putting his arm around her shoulders and trying to kiss her on the mouth, "Come on, dear." ”

Paul also touched the glass in her hand, causing it to spill on her dress. She stood up, overwhelmed, and looked impulsive, and wanted to slap Paul hard, but she held herself steady and said, "Mr. Ricardo, you've drunk too much, it's time to go back to your room and rest." ”

Paul laughed, "Joke, how can I be drunk? it's not too late to rest during the day, and I just want you to be with me tonight." ”

If Isabel goes with him, she can also know Zola's whereabouts and even the whereabouts of the virus through him, which is a great opportunity that I can't miss. Isabel knew what to do next, so she picked up the unconscious Paul and left the bar with a security guard.

Frank and I followed them down a hallway, only to see them stop outside Paul's room, where Paul fumbled for the key from his coat pocket and opened the door, and Isabel helped him into the room. The security guard was in charge of standing guard outside the door. I thought: it's disgusting, there are still guards.

Frank and I swaggered past the security guard and stopped on purpose. Frank pretended to ask him for directions, and I listened carefully to the sounds in the room, and could faintly hear the muffled sound of tables and chairs crashing into the room. Could it be that Paul was not drunk at all, and that he deliberately set a trap for Isabel? The security guard also heard the sound inside, and then leaned his ear against the door to listen, and the sound in the room became more and more obvious. The security guard was worried about Paul's safety, and he felt that something was wrong, so he slammed the door open and rushed in, followed by Frank and I to keep Isabel safe.

The scene in the room was quite astonishing. Isabel stood there, her hair a little unkempt, but Paul was already tied to an armchair, the security guard was shocked, I put my arm around the security guard's neck, Frank put a syringe with liquid silver into the security guard's neck, I immediately let go of my hand, only to see the security guard's skin began to fester, and finally turned to ashes in pain.

"Are you alright, dear?" I asked Isabel.

"It's fine. She replied.

Paul was firmly tied to his chair, unable to move, and Frank made it uncomfortable for him by pushing the chair down so that he was facing the sky.

After a while, Paul slowly came back from his slumber, and he pulled himself together, looked at us suspiciously, and said, "Who are you? What do you mean by that? Let me go, or I'll call the security guard." ”

"Don't ask us who we are. I said, "I just want to ask you one thing, and you have to answer truthfully." ”

Paul, who may have been a man of life and fear, pondered, "Well, as long as I knew, I would tell you." ”

"Do you have a virus called the Sixth Desire on board?"

"Yes, but only our captain knows. ”

"You must know where Zola is. ”

"Why are you asking this? Why didn't your leader, Thomas, come?"

"He can't come. ”

"Who the hell are you?"

"I ask you, where is Zola?"

Paul's drunkenness seemed to be gone, and he pondered, as if editing how to lie next.

"You'd better be honest with me, you know for sure, if you don't say it......" I pointed to the dust of the dead security guard's body, "you're going to end worse than him." ”

He remained silent, then glanced at Isabel, "Hey dear, can you help me?"

"You'd better answer the question. After Isabel finished speaking, she stomped on his ankle, and then made a broken sound,

"Okay, I said, Zora said that the virus was hidden in the lab at the very bottom of the cabin, and he said so, and I don't know if it's true or not." As long as you let me go, I'll help you, I swear. ”

"You swore you'd help us?"

"Yes. ”

"No kidding, Paul. Frank said.

"I swear, don't you just want to kill Zola? I can help you. ”

"You?" I said, "how can you make us believe you? You swore to help us kill your boss, you must have sworn to be loyal to him before, but now you want to betray him, I wonder if you will betray us one day after following us?"

"No, no. ”

Frank picked up the fruit knife on the table and stabbed him deep in the knee. He screamed, but fortunately Isabel grabbed him by the neck just in time to keep him out of his voice. This man is useless, today he betrayed Zola, even if he helped us, he will inevitably betray us in the future.

Paul endured the torture, "There are a lot of Zola's people in the cabin, and you can't get close to him. ”

This Paul is undoubtedly a duplicitous person, and such a person cannot stay for long, otherwise it will cause us great influence and loss.

I didn't say anything more, but left the room with Isabel, and Paul's life was left to Frank to settle the matter.

Isabel and I went back to the bar. Moments later, Frank returned. "How's it going?" I asked him.

"Solved. He said, "Paul is a dangerous man, and keeping him will only affect us." ”

"You've done a good job, the next step is to take out Zola. ”

We returned to Thomas's lodgings and found him lying on the ground dying, his chest pierced by a stake. "Who did that?" I asked.

"He wanted to run away, and he resisted. Volcker said.

"So you killed him?"

"Yes. It could be seen that Walker blamed himself, "I should have kept his life, maybe it would be useful." ”

"Walker, you're too impulsive, what should Zora do if she finds out he's dead and asks about it? Forget it, he's dead. ”

"He's dead, and we're probably not going to find Zola, let alone where the virus is hiding. ”

"No, I already know where the virus is, it was a security captain who told me, but he's dead. ”

"And when are we going to act?"

As I pondered how to kill Zola, the ship suddenly stopped, and the alarm sounded for the assembly. We calmly walked out and crept up to the very top of the ship, where we could see the blurred coastline of the United Kingdom.

I saw all the crew gathered on deck, could it be that the Baroque had arrived? I thought: no, Zola wants to take the virus to herself, so she won't send it out easily.

Zola also came to the deck, and he asked the crane driver to reach the hook into the sea, as if to salvage something. Several divers then jumped into the sea, and ten minutes later, they returned to the deck and signaled to the crane driver to lift, and the hook then went up, only to see a large, heavy-looking metal box being lifted up from the sea and then lowered steadily to the deck. Several crew members quickly unchained the bottom of the ship to the crate, and then opened the crate, which was neatly arranged in a transparent glass container.

Zora walked over to the box, touched the bottle with her hand, took out a random bottle, looked at it, and said, "These things should have a new owner." ”

I thought: that's the sixth desire. It turned out that the virus was not hidden in the cabin of the ship, but was always connected to the bottom of the ship by two long iron chains, and the navigation of the ship was used to drag the virus from the bottom of the sea to any sea area, and there was no flaw in it. Zola is very smart, he knows that once he hides the virus in the cabin, it will be quickly discovered by outsiders and even lost, so he came up with this method, which shows that he is also extremely secretive about his own people.

Zora looked at the virus in front of her proudly, and said to herself, "It didn't take much effort to get here, and in a year, I really can't guarantee what the world will be like." He then gave the order to start the ship.

Seeing that the coastline of the United Kingdom of England is becoming clearer and clearer, Zola must have changed his mind? Does he want to hand over the virus to Baroque and Ralph again? Hell it, what are we going to do now? If we fight hard, we will definitely suffer.

At this point, Zola suddenly gave the order to head north, which made me wonder, why did he go north?

The ship's mate asked Zola, "Captain, why are we going north?"

A sinister smile rose on Zola's lips, "Wouldn't it be nice to go to Ireland to pick up my family, and then go to Iceland with all my funds, and we will occupy the island ourselves? Maybe one day, we will also become the rulers of the world." He burst out laughing, and laughed horribly.

After listening to Zola's words, I was very annoyed, so I subconsciously punched the side, but unexpectedly broke one side of the glass of the skylight, unexpectedly attracting the attention of all the black gold fanatics.

Zola was surprised, he thought it was Thomas, and shouted, "Thomas, don't hide, come out and let's talk." We didn't reply for a long time, which made Zora suspicious, so he tentatively shouted, "Thomas, Thomas, is that you?"

Luckily, we all had weapons, and we couldn't hide it anymore. We suddenly got up and shot and killed several security guards. The enemy immediately returned fire, and Zora immediately became insane, and he ordered everyone to rush up.

The shootout began.

Many members of the Black Gold Maniac entered the cabin and tried to besiege us. Zola also led someone to make a four-bread copy of us.

Seeing that the enemy was coming too much and the firepower was also very strong, we hurriedly got into the cabin and started a guerrilla war with the enemy by taking advantage of the various passages in the cabin that extended in all directions. Although we have few people, all of us are sharpshooters, and if the enemy comes low, we can easily annihilate them. If too many enemies come, it will also become a big problem.

Although Lucifer gave me the power of Hell, I still didn't know how to use it, which became a big problem for me. We've killed a lot of enemies, but we're running out of ammo. We were pinned down by the enemy in a narrow corridor, with a strong enemy in front of us and pursuers driving us behind, and we were really in a dilemma, and if the enemy continued to encircle us, we would probably die here. The virus was not destroyed, but it was about to take its own life. But we never gave up and kept trying to find a way to break through the encirclement.

Zola shouted to us in a nearby corridor: "If you lay down your arms, I promise you will die a happy death, and if you continue to resist, I swear that you will die worse than you live." ”

As soon as his words fell, he heard a loud "boom", which made the whole ship shake violently.

"What's going on?" said Zola, furious.

Immediately after, there was a series of explosions, this time shaking the hull even more, and many of the cabins were already on fire. No one knew what was going on with this sudden explosion, and some of the enemies who had come to besiege us evacuated, and some were consumed by the merciless flames in the process of evacuation.

We were lucky not to be consumed by the flames. But we must find a way out of danger as soon as possible, or we will all be targeted. With the boat shaking so badly and the smoke billowing all around, we had to fumble our way with our keen sense of smell and hearing. Some of the crew members with flames on their bodies were making their final struggles.

As the fire spread upwards, we quickly reached the top of the ship, where we also saw some crew members throwing themselves overboard. While Zola was still trapped in the cabin, we jumped onto the deck and tried to destroy the box with a grenade. Suddenly, a still figure appeared in the raging flames not far away, who could this figure be? I saw that figure staggering out of the flames, and we looked at it fixedly, it turned out to be Thomas, and we were all stunned. With flames on his body, his face burned, he smiled at us with a hideous smile, and his laughter was sharp and piercing, and it was creepy. Isn't he dead? Is he coming out of hell and coming back to earth?

"Thomas. I exclaimed, "Aren't you dead?"

Walker was also surprised, "It's impossible, I killed him." ”

Thomas finally spoke: "But you didn't stab me in the heart, and now that I've detonated all the bombs on board, don't let any of you leave alive, and be my funeral goods together." He burst into a shrill laugh, and was engulfed in the flames that spread rapidly, along with the box of viruses that the Evil Spirits and the Black Gold Fanatics were proud of.

Zola tried to rush out of the cabin with his men, only to have the exit from the cabin blocked by flames and a few messy objects, and they soon screamed in the merciless flames and turned to ashes.

The "North African Lion" is slowly sinking, and the whole ship is already in flames. We lowered a lifeboat to the surface, and my compatriots jumped on the rescueboat one after another, and I motioned for them to row some distance first, so as not to be covered by the shock wave from the explosion.

When the lifeboat was about 50 meters away from the North African Lion, I jumped up and jumped far away, only to hear a series of loud explosions behind me, and occasionally I could feel the heat wave from the explosion crashing on my back.

Finally, I landed firmly on the lifeboat, and then looked back at the "North African Lion" one last time, and there was a "creaking" cracking sound from the ship, and the whole ship was wrapped in flames and glowing brightly. After two hours of burning, the North African Lion gradually sank to the bottom of the sea.

We had a lot of luck, and this time we owe it to Thomas, who would probably have died if he hadn't detonated the bomb on the ship in time. Although the viruses have been destroyed, as long as Baroque and Ralph are alive, they will create more viruses, so we must get rid of them completely to relieve their worries, and Baroque and Ralph will take revenge when they know about this, and our next adventure will be even more brutal.
