In the pine cone wood farm shrouded in darkness, the noisy gunfire was like firecrackers, and the moonlight sprinkled on the ground could not see the slightest brightness, and the illuminated places were shocking minced flesh and blood.

The Walking Dead Gate swooped down on the Union soldiers stationed in the manor.

In the flying tracer, they fell like wheat caught up in a harvester, and wave after wave like a wave crashing on the beachhead, and soon went forward to fill the gap.

The firepower of just twenty people is simply not enough to resist this group of guys who are not afraid of death.

The believers who looked like the living dead quickly broke through the blockade of the firepower network, crashed through the gates and windows into the villa, and bit people like crazy.

Not only that, but some guys in military uniforms shoot and throw grenades.

This is the worst thing!

"! These guys are hanging, aren't they?" Killed a living dead man with a rifle in his arms, his face turned pale.

He's played zombie-themed FPS a lot, but it's the first time he's heard that zombies can shoot.

"The first floor can't be held...... Old white! How long do you have left?" While changing the magazine, he retreated to shout.

Near the stairs, Fang Chang gritted his teeth and whispered in the communication channel.

There is only a rustling of electricity in the communication channel.

Behind the Seagull UAV, no longer hiding for convenience, directly activated electronic warfare, cutting off their communications in the first place.

However, Fang Chang always felt that it was not so simple.

In the midst of the current noise, he faintly heard other sounds...... It doesn't seem to be a simple disturbance, but an unconscious disturbance of something else.

In any case, the first floor has already been stormed.

The Coalition players had to abandon their positions on the first floor and retreat towards the second floor, fighting the living dead in narrow corridors with the help of barricades and doors.

Just when the battle in the mansion was raging, there was a hotel not far from the manor.

Four men in white coats were sitting in a room on the fifth floor, looking out the window at the Zhao Mansion in the middle of the storm, talking with a smile on their faces.

"The combat effectiveness of ordinary test subjects is still too weak, and after all, they are just ordinary people, and Nago has not fundamentally changed their physical functions."

"Sure enough, if you can't make good use of the tools at hand, human combat effectiveness is not as good as that of animals.

"Indeed, when it comes to direct combat effectiveness, mutants are a more suitable choice...... But on the other hand, those green-skinned monsters don't obey much."

The four people sitting here are all apostles of the Torch Church.

However, unlike the apostles who were naturalized from the wastelanders, they were much higher in status and authority than the godlike men who were only responsible for missions.

Not only do they know exactly what the torch is, but they also know very well that what they are doing has nothing to do with the beliefs they are creating.

This situation is not without precedent in the long history.

Some grassroots people who are far from the core of clerical authority have a deep belief in their own beliefs, and they are even more comfortable with the combined scriptures and theories, and they conscientiously dedicate their lives to their beliefs.

However, the few people close to the core of the clerical authority are well aware that beliefs and doctrines are essentially just

Qualitatively, they are just tools to drive their servants, and while this does not conflict with their piety and zeal, they will make the tools play their due value.

So there are often wars waged in the name of the gods, not actually for the gods, but for worldly power and wealth.

This was the case with the apostles who were truly close to the heart of the power of the Torch Church.

The only difference is that they don't do it for worldly power and wealth, and there's nothing to pursue in the wasteland.

What they really pursued was much more noble than that of the Christians of classical times.

It's all for the future of civilization.

Look at the life that blooms in the sparks

Death and blood poured in the mud, and an intoxicated smile appeared on the face of one of the apostles.

Both the process and the result, this experiment was perfect!

While he quietly admired the experiment, the other three were chatting with great interest.

"Isn't A-111's performance okay......

"Ah, you said Goliath...... It was okay, but it could only be used as a meat shield. It's a bit reluctant to expect it to play the role of a "tank" in frontal combat, and the Bishop has high expectations for it, and I believe that after this time, he should realize the problem."

"Unless you put some special weapons on it, it's a big problem that you can't operate it."

"Speaking of which, I have to praise the soldiers of this settlement. Although they are thugs trained by the farmer, their skills are still good, and Nago and Gospel can just make up for their lack of fighting will, and this system is simply tailor-made for them."

"Haha, you say that, I think those serf test subjects are getting in their way."

"Not really, it's still possible to at least consume some ammo."

In front of the Coalition soldiers, most of the test subjects were only given heads, but the soldiers who had been the farmer's pawns here were different.

They could use rifles, and they even knew how to load and reload and reload, as well as aim, even if they were a little less accurate, and this kind of fearless fighting still caused a lot of trouble for the Alliance soldiers.

In addition to the soldiers who operate rifles, the technical classes can even fly vehicles and operate stationary weapons, which is a remarkable discovery.

Thanks to the cooperation of the settlement, and especially the farmer, their research has taken a big step forward.

And it's not just their progress!

At the same time, it is also a step towards the glorious evolution of human civilization!

Presumably, the farmer who was already under the Nine Springs should be extremely honored by the light at this moment

After all, if it weren't for them, that pedantic and stupid guy and his stupid and ignorant slaves would not have contributed anything useful to human civilization all their lives, let alone left a single word in this dark history.

He and his colony were like a ruin left behind, unable to do anything but rotten wood in a corner that had been corroded by time, and which had decayed in many boats.

At least for now, these incompetent fellows can still be used as firewood, as fuel to light the torch......

The apostles who were seated in the room were discussing with great interest.

「…… Is it muscle memory? They can even operate anti-aircraft guns and automatic rifles."

"If there are a large number of trained test subjects who inject them with 'gospel' at a specific moment, they may be able to exert enough power on the battlefield."

"Properly commanded."

"It reminds me of the clones of the Legion."

"The clones of the Legion can't compare to us, those who grow eight times faster can't do anything but soar, but our followers are different.

"By switching between different frequencies of the gospel, you can manipulate their thoughts and emotions and force them to accomplish all sorts of simple tasks...... Tsk, when you think about it, the most suitable places for them are still plantations and factories, and it would be a waste to send them to the battlefield to consume ammunition without any training."

At this moment, the envoy who had been staring out the window suddenly frowned, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

「…… Look down on these guys." The three stopped talking and looked at him." What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, a guinea pig slipped outside the cage and happened to find the things we kept in the annex." The apostle, who was sitting by the window, said nonchalantly.

The other three apostles looked at each other.

"Didn't they go to Zhao Tiangan?" "What are you going to do in the annex?"

"Could it be that Zhang Zhengyang leaked it?" The apostle, who was sitting by the window, shook his head.

"No, you can't

Yes, that guy is just a peripheral person in charge of missions, and he doesn't even know about experiments, so how can he possibly know what's under that annex."

The sneer on his lips gradually took on a hint of mockery, and he continued in a casual tone.

"Anyway, the Bishop has discovered it, and we don't need to worry about the rest."

The "executioners" will clean up." Although force is not the specialty of the Torch Church, and they rarely resort to armed invasion to achieve their goals, the machine of violence is still essential to them.

The Tribunal, for example, is such a body.

Unlike the Order, they are more akin to agents than regular soldiers who conduct military operations on frontal battlefields.

When there are disturbances in the diocese that affect the progress of the experiment, and it is not suitable for the regular army to intervene, the professionals of the Inquisition will intervene to clean it up

They are often referred to as "executioners".

Those guys are well-equipped and professionally trained in combat, and the average wasteland won't last more than a round on their hands.

Even if it's the Awakened.

Hearing the word executioner, a relaxed smile appeared on the faces of all the apostles.

The success rate of those guys' operations in Haiya and Geumcheon provinces was close to 95%, and with the previous record of the Inquisition, it was not too easy to deal with a little mouse that slipped into the laboratory.

However, what the apostles didn't know was that the executioner squad they had high hopes for was in trouble at the moment......

On the edge of the manor's walls, rustling and swaying trees

In the moving woods, there are more than a dozen figures wearing exoskeletons.

They carry sculptural weapons in their hands, their streamlined armor armouring them to the teeth, and their pitch-black paint paint blends perfectly with the night

They are like ghosts, waiting for an opportunity in the dark.

Looking at the [Connection Lost] icon flashing in the tactical eyepiece, Li Jie, the captain of the executioner team, gradually raised a trace of solemnity between his eyebrows, looked to the side and said.

"Isn't there any news from Wu Zhe?"

The subordinate who was stopped by him, his expression was also full of solemnity, and he said in a deep voice.

"Not yet...... He's too close to the telepathic interference device."

In the vicinity of telepathic interference devices, radio signals are severely disrupted.

Normally, they would have been able to get in touch with the lab via a wired data channel, but with the launch of Project 03, the researchers in that lab had been completely evacuated.

So now no one knows what exactly is going on there.

", what is that guy rubbing!" The man with a light machine gun in both hands cursed and muttered, "I don't think I'm going to mess it up."

Another grim-looking man whispered.

"That shouldn't be, there is only one mouse, Wu Zhe is not a rookie who has gone out on a mission for the first time, this little thing is still done well."

Is it a small thing......

Glancing solemnly at the direction of the annex, Li Jie said in an unpredictable tone.

"I hope so."

To be honest, he has confidence in Wu Zhe.

That guy is also the old man of the squad, they have worked together many times before coming to Geumhe City, and that guy has never let him down.

However, for some reason, it was just a simple clean-up job, but there was always a feeling of unease in his heart, as if something was going to happen.

Maybe he shouldn't let Wu Zhe go alone.

But he doesn't really have a choice about this matter.

Reinforcements from the Alliance arrived.

The Bishop asked him to keep all the members of the alliance here.

While this wasn't part of the experiment, if the Coalition soldiers could be left behind, they could easily dump what was happening here on the Alliance.

The alliance went on a killing spree in the settlements of Geumcheon Province,

Not only is this story convenient enough for them, but the local farmers must love it.

After all, the people who clamored for the abolition of slavery and oppression were much more hateful than their "godheads who were not interested in worldly power"!

Not far from them, the Union transport planes had broken through the blockade of the anti-aircraft fire network, and finally managed to reduce altitude and speed, switched to vertical take-off and landing mode, and were flying towards the roof of the villa in the center of the manor.

The soldiers of the Union had already retreated to the top floor of the villa.

As soon as the transport plane was brought to a standstill, the soldiers would immediately board the transport plane and evacuate.

They must not be allowed to leave!

Li Jie's eyes gradually turned cold, he raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist, and then pointed to the transport plane that was hovering.

The executioner who followed him understood

Barrel sheet, removed the portable bazooka on the back,

Kneeling on his shoulder, he aimed at the transport plane not far away.

"Image locked!" Li Jie shouted. "Launch!"

With a soft "bang", a small arm-length missile pierced through the dust cover, and ignited while being ejected from the launch canister, dragging a slender tail flame towards the transport plane that had just stopped on the roof of the villa.

The hovering transport plane apparently spotted the missile and tried to make an evasive maneuver.

However, with such a short distance, it is basically impossible to dodge.

Seeing that the missile was about to hit the target, Li Jie couldn't help but have a smile on his face. However, almost at the same time, a scene that he could not have imagined happened.

「RPG！！」

I saw a guy wearing an exoskeleton suddenly scream, and a runner jumped out of the cabin, and threw himself at the missile that blasted into the side of the transport plane with open arms.

The missile has entered the terminal flight stage, and it is not ...... at all

The man hit the ground running, and the "boom" exploded into a cloud of fireworks!

At one point, the debris and flames of the explosion swept into the cabin of the transport plane, and the hot air pushed the fuselage of the transport plane lightly, but the transport plane itself was not damaged in any way.

Looking at the guy who took the missile with his face, the executioners lurking in the woods were all stupid, especially Li Jie, and the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely.

What the hell is this?!

It was the first time he had seen the "old six!! who used people to catch missiles

Looking at the sixth child who exploded into flames in the air, Bai Qi's eyes widened, and he swept the woods where the missile hit with his rifle in his hand.

However, at this moment, the plane shook violently, and the shuttle only swept the loneliness, and did not hit anything.

Realizing that the attack was coming from the woods due east, the pilot, sitting in the cockpit of the Viper, immediately slammed on the left rudder and at the same time deflected the lever to the right.

I saw the "Viper" hovering in the air flick its tail cleanly, and then dangled from the east side of the villa to the west side.

The evacuated players in the villa followed suit, shooting the living dead with their rifles as they moved towards the west side of the villa.

"...... What happened to that missile?" The pilot, who was sitting in the driver's seat, gasped and shouted at the soldiers behind him.

He's a pilot of the Boulder City Militia Air Force, and he's been flying this plane for seven or eight years, but it's the first time he's on such an exciting mission.

When he thought of what had just happened, he felt a pang of fear in his heart.

If that guy hadn't sacrificed himself just now, the people on their plane would have been cold.

Unlike him, who was terrified, the man in the power armor was very calm, even to the point of cold-bloodedness. Even if his comrade-in-arms died in front of him, the man's emotions did not show a trace of waves.

Staring dead at the outside of the cabin, Lao Bai said in a deep voice

"I don't know, but I guess...... Eighty percent are torch bearers!" The pilot froze.

"Torch ?!!"

"Or how do you think these things came about?" Looking at the crowded heads outside the cabin, Lao Bai couldn't help frowning.

For the league, the real trouble is probably after tonight.

But now is not the time to think about that.

Looking at the Fang group who retreated to the window of the corridor on the west side of the villa, and the surging tide of corpses chasing behind them, Lao Bai set up the assault rifle in his hand and ordered loudly.

"Fire!"

Including the lost newcomer holding the on-board machine gun, the five players crouching on the side of the cabin immediately pulled the trigger and vented their ferocious fire on the tide of corpses behind the window.

Streams of orange-yellow tracer light rained down like raindrops, and the dumbfounded guys fell to the ground in an instant as if they were cutting wheat, and huddled together in the corridor.

Looking at Fang Chang, who ran to the window, Lao Bai shouted loudly.

"Come up!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Fang Chang raised his hand and slammed the closed window to pieces.

Then he stepped on the window, driven by the exoskeleton, jumped out of the window, flew four or five meters in the air, grabbed Lao Bai's outstretched right hand, and was pulled into the cabin by Lao Bai.

Finally out of danger.

Fang Chang sat on the ground, gasping for breath, breathing in the fresh air.

It was only then that Lao Bai noticed that he was carrying a person on his back, or a slimy corpse soaked in blood.

By comparing the photos in the VM, he could barely make out the face.

This person is Zhao Tiangan!

The goal of their operation this time!

According to the original plan, they originally planned to control the farmer, indirectly control the entire settlement, and then indirectly collect information about the Torch Church, but they did not expect that the group of gods were already waiting for them here.

Now the Pinecone Farm has become this ghost.

Whether this guy is dead or not, it has lost its effect on the Alliance.

"The other side has launched electronic warfare, there is a problem with our communication, and we can't contact you since just now......" calming his chaotic breathing, Fang Chang looked at Lao Bai and said.

"It's not just you, it's just us, eighty percent of their jamming equipment covers the entire area......" Glancing at the corpse lying next to him, Lao Bai cast an inquiring glance at Fang Chang, "Why did you bring this guy with you?"

Fang Chang took a light breath and said. It's a bit weird, and I suspect that the sanctuary is absolutely safe...... It's not a physical shelter or a safe house as we understand it.

Lao Bai frowned. "What do you mean?"

"To put it simply, that Sanctuary may be a virtual space, and it can't even be ruled out that the bishop named Luo Gan is virtual...... He simply does not have his own body to communicate with us, and only certain people can act as vehicles to receive his consciousness."

Lao Bai looked at him stunned, not understanding how he deduced this astonishing conjecture.

"You're a brain...... It's big enough." Fang Chang took a light breath.

"It's just my guess...... What is the truth, I have to trouble Ms. Chen to dissect this guy's brain. Anyway, we're going to have to get him back to the military base.

While the two were talking, Luo Yu also jumped onto the plane and was pulled up by Bai Yu, who was waiting on the edge of the cabin.

Then there were quit smoking and good dogs, and there were only four of them who survived.

As for Xiao Yu's fruiting bodies, in order to break the back for the players, when they moved from the first floor to the upper floor, they were already overwhelmed by the tide of walking corpses.

The fruiting body is actually okay, that thing is like Xiao Yu's hair, as long as the nutrients are sufficient, you can give birth to a few if you want to give birth soon.

It's just that considering that too many fruiting entities that share a consciousness will affect the efficiency of operations, and Xiao Yu, who has just been promoted to the mother's business, is not proficient, so the number is controlled at ten.

However, when I think of the loss of ten sets of K-1

0 "Iron Wall" exoskeleton, Luo Yu was depressed.

Fortunately, Elder Brother Fang promised him before that the Burning Corps would reimburse 90% of the equipment loss, otherwise this wave of "big breaks" would directly give him back several versions ago.

As the last player jumped into the cabin, the Viper transport plane immediately closed the distance between itself and the villa, avoiding the direction from which the missile had come from, and headed towards the west side of the manor.

Glancing at the people in the cabin, Lao Bai's face suddenly showed a surprised expression.

"Speaking of night ten? That guy is cold?"

Unscientific.

That kid's life is not ordinarily hard.

When he landed on the Iron Heart, he was the only one who survived.

"I don't know, he was the first to lose contact, and he didn't interfere at that time, I'm afraid he was already cold ...... at that time" When he said this, Fang Chang suddenly paused, his face changed slightly, "I see."

Looking at his expression as if he understood something, quitting squatting next to him asked curiously.

"What is that?"

Fang Chang said without panting.

"Annex! The telepathic device is in the annex."

As he spoke, a red flare suddenly rose into the sky.

That's exactly where the annex is headed!

Seeing the flickering red light, Lao Bai immediately walked to the edge of the cockpit, grabbed the back of the pilot's seat and shouted loudly.

"We still have some people who haven't been evacuated! Go to the flare location!"

Hearing this, the pilot was shocked.

"Are you sure?! The guys have anti-aircraft missiles: "I'm sure! We have to pick him up!"

Lao Bai stared at his eyes seriously, "You just go over and pick up people, and we'll figure out the rest!"
