Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Gambler's Magic (Part II)
Costa Lucas walked out of the stone house at the checkpoint, leaving only the sweaty Heller alone in the room, she looked at the man in white outside the door with a frightened face, walked quickly to the tall black beauty Lima, leaned against the wall weakly, closed her eyes in pain and said to herself: "What the hell am I doing?"
"What the hell am I doing?"
Costa Lucas heard Heller's muttered mutters of confusion and became more and more sure of the truth of what Heller had said, and a smug smile tugged at the corner of his lips, as if success was within reach.
"Lima. β
Seeing Costa Lucas's confident appearance, Rima asked, "My lord, have you contacted Shisch?"
"Nope." Costa Lucas shook his head, "It doesn't matter anymore. β
"Why?" said Rima with some anxiety, "Even if there is a 'Guardian', we can't let the other party threaten our essence!"
For them, the choice at the moment is in a dilemma, and returning to the main body can confirm the situation, but in case the main body has been controlled, they will lose the initiative. If you don't return to the main body, you can't contact Xi Shi, and you don't know what happened at the safe point.
Costa Lucas said lightly, "Don't worry~ Rima Heller has told me their full plan. Athena had already gone to Damascus, and now only that 'Ryktska' remained, and he could not use the carrier at all, only the plasma knife in a special way. His plan was to infiltrate the security point himself, block the signal from the satellite phone, trick Shishi into going to Dumer Airport, and then use the queer forces to attack our safety point with crowd tactics on the way. So the hostage robbery is nothing more than a smoke bomb to confuse us, and his purpose is to kill us from beginning to end."
Lima gasped, "Doesn't that mean our body is dangerous? β
"Don't be nervous. Costa Lucas smiled faintly, "If nothing goes wrong on Heller's side, this plan is indeed highly operable, but without Heller's and Tamer's orders now, the army of the queer Germans will not act rashly." So now you go to Jerut with Colonel Tamer to see those queer people, without the help of the queer forces, he himself can't use the carrier, he can't touch our essence, not to mention Shishi and the 'Guardians'. β
Rima breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'll go to Jerut now?"
Costa Lucas nodded and said, "Go! Colonel Tamer comes with you." β
"I'm going to Jerut, what should I do here?" asked Rima .
"I'll leave it to Yusuf here. I took Blake to find Shish right away, and although I regret not being able to catch Athena," he stretched out his scarlet tongue and licked his lips, "but it was very satisfying to be able to catch Athena's lover"
Lima was a little puzzled how the Shaxx Demon God could be satisfied with only catching Athena's lover with such great effort, and before she could ask, the Shaxx Demon God had already disappeared in place and appeared next to Yusuf's convoy.
After a while, Yusuf and the head of the mercenaries walked to the stone house at the checkpoint, while Shaxx led the Humvee convoy out of position.
Rima didn't wait any longer, greeted Yusuf through the walkie-talkie, and walked up to the exhausted Colonel Tamer and said, "Now you and I go to Djerut"
Senior Colonel Tamer glanced at the checkpoint and asked uneasily, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing serious. Rima said lightly, "We used to just control your subordinates and keep them from running around. β

Hisch XXXXXXXXXXXXX is comforting, but when the name "Athena" is spoken, the joyful tremor turns into a palpitation of fear.
"My heartbeat has changed. "I'm really curious. Why do women like Xie Minyun and Athena like you like you?"
Cheng Mo only felt tense all over, and his mind was racing wildly, trying to guess what this siren-like redhead wanted to do. The flirtatious xxxxxxxxx just now has become a nightmare at the moment. He only felt that he was being entangled by a poisonous snake spitting a scarlet long letter, and the shiny and hard diamond manicure xxxx was like scales xxx
Cold and deadly.
"Why don't you speak? Wasn't you very sweet just now?" "Xi Shi xxxxxxxxxxxxx, xxxx, "I want to hear you say a few more words to me!"
Cheng Mo knew that it was pointless to cover up, so he grabbed Xi Shi's wrist, stuffed her hand back, and asked in a good time, "How did you recognize me?"
Shishi chuckled: "Dear Ceren, do you know that my phone is full of videos and photos of you, and my room is also full of posters of you, and not only that, but I also customize your doll model, and every night when I fall asleep, I have to hold it until I fall asleep." She put her hand on the scar on Cheng Mo's right hand, "The scars on your hands, the dimples on your face, and the moles on your neck.
She xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, like a poisonous snake sniffing the fragrance of flowers, "Ceren, no one in this world knows you better than me!"
Cheng Mo didn't expect to encounter illegitimate meals in his lifetime, especially in this case, he didn't think it was a good thing, but it made a big change in the expected situation. Cheng Mo didn't know what to say for a while.
"Don't you believe it?" Xi Shi picked up his mobile phone from the coffee table and entered the password, and handed it to Cheng Mo, "You see I even have a mobile phone password 001111"
"001111" is Cheng Mo's birthday, this "big surprise" made Cheng Mo's face gloomy, he glanced at the screen, and found that Xi Shi's mobile phone screensaver was a photo of himself taken by a drone. It was a headshot of him in Paris on the phone with the Sith the Clown, with burning Paris in the background and the illuminated Eiffel Tower on the left. The cold wind lifted his hair, and his emotionless face looked like an abstract painting of Van Gogh under the low pixels, showing a hazy, gloomy, and devastated beauty.
I have to say that Xi Shi's aesthetics are quite online, beautifying Cheng Mo's ordinary face into art.
Cheng Mo just glanced at it, didn't take the phone from Xi Shi's hand, and said lightly: "No need." β
"It's okay if you don't look at it. "Hisch xxxxxxxxxxxx, "When you killed the Sith the Clown, you were promoted to my idol." The duel between you and the clown is so exciting, so exciting! When I saw you shoot at so many people as you entered the Ouyu headquarters, my whole body trembled. You know how crazy I am, and I went to Huaxia to collect your information."
How could Cheng Mo believe this kind of nonsense, he asked expressionlessly, "You have a grudge against the Sith?"
Xi Shi looked up at Cheng Mo's side face, and said solemnly: "How can it be? Lord Sith is my last idol, otherwise I wouldn't have given him the name 'Xi Shi' and saluted him!"
Cheng Mo's hard-hearted heart was certainly not seduced by a few sweet words, but he felt that this woman was even more dangerous than the Sith. So he neatly pushed away the hand that Heath was holding him, and asked in a deep voice, "Say, what do you want?"
Xi Shi flicked the long red hair draped over his shoulders, as if he was injured, and said with grievances: "Sairen, how can you be like this? I talk to you about feelings, and you talk to me about deals?"
Cheng Mo said lightly: "Miss Xi Shi, transactions are more reliable than feelings. β
Xi Shi clasped his hands on his chest, leaned back on the sofa, crossed Erlang's legs, and immediately changed his awe-inspiring and inviolable face, and said in a cold voice: "Didn't you swear just now that if you deceived me, you would agree to my request? Xie Minyun's husband, Athena's lover, and Xi Shi's idol won't be a scumbag who doesn't believe in his word, right?"
"Didn't I ask what you want?"
Xi Shijiao said angrily: "But I'm afraid that you are reluctant to give me what I want." β
"Whether I give it or not, you have to say it, right? If you don't say it, how do I know what you want?"
Hisch xxxxxxxxxxxx, "Why do you knowingly ask?"
Cheng Mo immediately thought of the "Lord of the Plague" that Athena asked him for, and now it seems that Xi Shi's purpose should also be the "Lord of the Plague". As a subordinate of the "Demon God Shaxx", he chose to betray without hesitation, and wanted to get the "Lord of the Plague" from him, instead of "Uroboros" who wanted to rob him. This made Cheng Mo understand that in the eyes of Athena and Xi Shi, the "Lord of the Plague" was an extremely special existence, so the "Lord of the Plague" definitely had a use that he didn't know about.
In addition, the reason why the "Demon God Shaxx" is so cautious against these subordinates is a reason, the special promotion system of the "Black Death" is a reason, and the Demon God Shaxx guessed his true identity and had to be cautious for the sake of the "Lord of the Plague", and now it seems that it must be a reason.
This means that the "Lord of the Plague" must be able to serve some purpose beyond its own function.
"Maybe it's to open up a certain ruin, maybe it's a special effect and meaning to the people of the Black Death?"
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Cheng Mo's brain, and he regretted that he didn't ask Athena why he was the "Lord of the Plague", and now he could only figure it out on his own. He asked in a cold voice, "Can you hide this from the Shaxx Demon God?"
Xi Shi was noncommittal to Cheng Mo's question, she leaned towards Cheng Mo again, and said softly, "Of course I have my own way. She grabbed Cheng Mo's hand and clasped it tightly, "To be honest, I've long seen that old thing unpleasant, I used to swallow my anger because I had to do it, but now that I met you and found the true destiny that can save me, it's time for me to leave." β
"Why don't you kill him?" Cheng Mo looked at Xi Shi, "Could it be that you think you betrayed him, and he will let you go?"
"No, no, I'm not like that. Shish shook his head, "Although I'm not a good person, after all, I've been with Lord Shaxx for so many years, and I can't be ruthless." I don't think you want me to be that cruel, do you?"
Cheng Mo replied without thinking: "I hope." β
Shishi smiled gracefully but politely, "Dear Ceren, give up this idea! She xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "You wouldn't have given the 'Lord of the Plague' to Athena, would you?
Cheng Mo first thought that it was really for the "Lord of the Plague", and then he thought that there were indeed many hidden powerhouses like Li Jiting in the world. After a moment's consideration, he shook his head and said, "How is it possible? It's a long story, I escaped from Paris, in order to avoid detection, I hid 'Urobolos' in a place that no one knows, I wanted to leave through the channel of the Black Death, but I didn't expect to be caught by Athena, but fortunately Ulopolos was not on me, she tried her best to make me hand over the 'Lord of the Plague', of course I couldn't give it, so she locked me up in Hydra for two years, and recently encountered an attack by Ou Yu, so she took me away. Because he knew that he couldn't make me give in, he resorted to gentle means. I pretended to be in love with her, and went crazy to be her lap dog, maybe I licked it properly, maybe this woman was too confident to take it seriously, saying that as long as I took the 'Lord of the Plague' as a dowry, she would dump Napoleon VII and marry me. I don't trust other people so easily, so I asked her to have sex with me, but she pretended to be a white lotus and refused, saying that she was a Christian and could only roll the sheets with me on the day of her wedding."
"Licking dogs?"
"It means 'simp'. Cheng Mo explained, "The word derived from our Chinese refers to the male group of women who kneel and lick the women they like without a bottom line. After a pause, he added rigorously, "xxxxxxxxxxxx"
"Chinese is really broad and profound. Xi Shi smiled at Cheng Momei, "So, you made Athena happy?"
Cheng Mo said as a matter of course: "Yes, Athena really believes that I love her to death, otherwise how can I escape?"
"Why do I think you're lying again? There will be a man who doesn't like Athena?"
"It's a little tempting. Cheng Mo sighed and said, "But Napoleon VII is really not easy to mess with, and his life is even more important."
"If you are so desperate for your life, why don't you run away, and risk your life with us?"
Cheng Mo smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think I'm willing? Isn't there anything I can't help it? Although I took advantage of the opportunity for you to hunt me down and escaped Athena's control, and was intercepted at the oasis, I pretended to sacrifice myself righteously and delayed time for them, and finally ran away. But who knew that he would be caught by queer Germans again." He spread his hands, "What else can I do?" I can only fool them and say that I can get the hostages out. Fortunately, the leader we saved at the base, Dr. Adjar, and his daughter Heller is also a very naΓ―ve girl, and I believed me, but her subordinates didn't believe me so much, and they were monitoring me the whole time, and I couldn't go back to Athena's side, so I had to choose to take a risk, anyway, I just gave it a try! If I succeed, the queer Germans will definitely send me out, if it doesn't work, I won't be in danger of my life in your hands for the time being."
The whole set of statements is reasonable, even more true than what really happened, and I can't believe it. Besides, it doesn't matter what the truth is for Xi Shi, as long as Cheng Mo is controlled.
Therefore, Shishi just said "No wonder", stopped what he was doing, and asked in a low voice, "Then why can't Athena use the carrier?"
"I used it. It's just that she doesn't want to use it, and the woman is a little moody." Cheng Mo turned his head to look at Xi Shi and said, "You won't say anything about treating me as an idol, in fact, you just want to deceive the 'Plague Lord' from me, right?"
Xi Shi smiled and said, "How is it possible?" she xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "Do you want to prove to you my true feelings now?"
Cheng Mo pressed Xi Shi's hand and said, "Now is not the time, we have to escape first." β
"Don't worry, when we get to Dumer airport, we can leave by plane. "Shish xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx," there are still at least forty minutes, and I want to establish a deeper relationship with my idol first, so that maybe you won't be so cruel to abandon me. β
Cheng Mo shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't even have Uroboros, but I don't have the ability to leave you." β
Xi Shi xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cheng Mo's face, "You have." From the conversation I have just spoken to you, I can see that you, like the Sith, are the ones who conquer the enemy by their brains, not by force. To tell you the truth, if it weren't for the fact that I admired and liked you too much, my poor little idol would have almost deceived me! I don't think I'm your opponent, but of course I have to find a way to trap you, and I don't want you to run away like leaving Athena, what should I do if I'm pitiful?"
The warm fragrant nephrite was full of arms, but Cheng Mo did not feel happy at all, but became more and more wary of the redhead girl in her arms, because she not only knew how to use women's advantages, but also took advantage of men's weaknesses. Obviously, she has only mastered her own power of life and death, but she shows a weak and lovely appearance that he can control, in order to dispel his vigilance and make him feel that she is just a little woman who needs his care.
Cheng Mo knew that what he was in his arms was a poisonous snake that chose people to devour, but it was difficult for him to be disgusted with this woman when the other party did not attack him.
This is still Cheng Modao's firm and defensive heart, if he wants to change a man, even if he is deceived by a woman like Xi Shi, he will definitely think that poor Xi Shi is forced to do so. will even help her find her hardships in a humble and conscious way, and then choose to forgive her by wearing a green hat.
Who told her to be so beautiful, so hot, and so good at pleasing men?
Cheng Mo knew this clearly, he knew that Xi Shi was definitely the battle in the green tea and Su Daji in the fox spirit. It was better for a woman like this to be less contaminated, even if he could quickly restore his energy storage with the help of Xi Shi at this moment, he would not dare to take this risk. So he xxxxxx
He said softly: "There is not enough time, we have time in the future." β
"I think there's a lot of time!" Heath affirmed.
Cheng Mo chose to retreat without thinking in the face of the shame and humiliation in his life, and he used a disdainful sneer to hide his lack of confidence to deal with Xi Shi's challenge, "I'm really not interested in this situation." β
"It wouldn't be the need for sildenafil citrate, would it?" "Hisch xxxxxxxxx
Cheng Mo at this time very much hoped that he could be like James Bond in the movie, without a little discipline to convince this little wild cat, but unfortunately he is not James Bond, the conservatism and sense of responsibility of oriental culture are deeply rooted in his heart, and he doesn't like a woman like Xi Shi who is overly enthusiastic, even if she is very beautiful.
In another scenario, he would not hesitate to refuse Xi Shi's seduction, but the current situation is pressing, and he can't cause Xi Shi to be overly dissatisfied.
So he took Shish's finger and whispered, "Hey, Shish."
Cheng Mo xxxxxxxxxxxx The snake-like woman whispered softly like the evening breeze turning the page: "Real men never talk nonsense. β
Cheng Mo closed his eyes, not knowing what to do.
"Little Selen, don't say no, your body is very honest!"
Cheng Mo xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx said: "When overlord xxx can't be avoided, then xxxx enjoy!"
Just as the countdown to the destruction of xxxxxxxxxxx came to an end, Shih Shi seemed to release a huge demon, and the sudden explosion shook the eardrums, lifting the two people off the sofa, and the huge RV was also thrown away by a huge force.
In Cheng Mo's field of vision, the "Diamond Celebration" on the coffee table was falling, two crystal clear crystal cups spilled brown wine floating in the air, the carriage was filled with an intoxicating aroma, all the furniture was squeezed and deformed, and fierce fireworks were lit by the windows on both sides.
In the midst of the cacophony of sounds, Shishi picked up Cheng Mo in mid-air, like a nimble swiftlet through all the falling bits and pieces of distorted space. Cheng Mo felt as if he was weightless, and floated to the door of the refuge house.
At this time, the huge RV had already tilted towards the side of the road, as if it was about to be overturned by the flames. Xi Shi, who was holding Cheng Mo, snorted softly, stepped on the floor of the RV, and the silver metal heels of the high heels were inserted into the wooden floor, cracks spread like spider webs, and the body that was about to overturn was like a nail hammered down by her, and she pressed it to the ground.
The collision of the two huge forces made the body make a screeching sound, and it began to move sideways, and Cheng Mo could see the thick body wall twisting and stretching, but in the end, because the strength was too high, it was just deformed, and it did not break.
At the same time, Xi Shi rushed to the door of the insurance house, verified the fingerprints, iris, and quickly entered the password, opened the heavy door of the insurance room, put Cheng Mo inside, and said quickly: "You wait here, I'll go see what's going on." β
As soon as the words fell, Xi Shi closed the door again, leaving Cheng Mo alone inside.
This sudden change did not panic Cheng Mo, but made him breathe a sigh of relief, the explosion itself was arranged by Fayer to set up, and the road bomb was one of the Syrians' special skills.
It's just that Cheng Mo didn't expect this explosion to come so timely and coincidentally, if it was a little bit later, there would definitely be no way to keep his innocence.
After settling down, Cheng Mo put aside his distractions and began to observe the safe house, the whole room had no superfluous decorations, no windows, all six sides were bare silver-gray alloy, and the roof was inlaid with explosion-proof lights that would be installed in a mine hole. On each side of the house there is a row of large child seats, in which people sit and are held securely in their seats as if they were asleep.
There is no doubt that these are the Chosen Ones of the Demon God Shaxx, and they are in the state of carrier activation.
Cheng Mo glanced at it, and did not see anyone who looked like Xi Shi among the five people, but saw You Sufu who looked like a pigtailed man and Aldrich, a tall and thin man.
He turned to look at the center of the house, where three coffin-like rectangular metal boxes were fixed to the floor. There is no trace of lines around the three metal boxes, it is completely like a whole, only a small display screen in the front of the front, which is glowing white, and the shimmer illuminates a line of knife-and-axe-like English - guardian at the bottom of the screen. (Guardian)

"Heller. Dr. Hazard, who was lying in the pickup trailer, sat up with the help of Stanger, the one-eyed dragon, and despite his tiredness, he raised his hand and stroked Heller's hair as he had done before, "Good boy, what are you crying about?"
"Daddy!" Heller clenched his father's large, wrinkled and scarred hands and cried even harder, "I don't know if I'm doing the right thing, I betrayed Mr. RekΓ§ka, I really don't want to.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, kid. I heard Steanger tell me, and he woke me up because of Mr. Rekcka's arrangement. Dr. Hazard turned his head and looked at Stanger, the one-eyed dragon, with cloudy eyes. Stanger got up and jumped out of the trunk, leaving time for the father and daughter.
Heller was surprised and ashamed and said, "Mr. Rekcka's arrangement, does he know that I will betray him?"
Dr. Hazard squeezed Heller's hand and whispered, "No, he didn't say that, he said you're too young to bear such a lot of pressure, so don't blame yourself." It's great that you have the courage to come back here. β
"Really?" said Heller, looking disappointed, "but I'm sorry for him. β
Dr. Hazard smiled, "Do you know why I asked Mr. RekΔka to take you away?"
The teary-eyed Heller shook his head and sobbed, "I don't know, I just know that you must be for my good." β
"For your own good, and for our queer good. "I know that you are a good girl with courage and responsibility, and you are even willing to give your life for our suffering people, but there are many things, many things, and you can do them well if you really want to."
"I know I'm not smart enough, Daddy! If I had half your wisdom, I wouldn't be in such pain. Heller said with his head down.
"No, no," Dr. Hazard shook his head, "wisdom can be learned. β
"Firm faith?" Heller stopped crying, she was drawn to her father's words and fell into thought, but "faith" remained a vague and unspeakable word in her mind, "Do you speak of confidence in the victory over the enemy?"
Dr. Hazard shook his head, his voice sounding like a leaky bellows, sounding overwhelming, "Syria has become the poorest place in the Middle East, the years of war have burned the oil fields, the wheat fields, the houses, everything we have burned to ashes, the war is so terrible that every time I see the smoke of gunpowder, I suffocate. I saw the people marching forward, the enemy moving forward one after another, the people dying indiscriminately, both the enemy and their own people, showing great courage, but I looked at their corpses and didn't know what they were fighting for."
Heller raised her head and said, "For women's rights, for freedom, for queer independence!"
Dr. Hazard smiled reluctantly and said, "Can we wage war for this? Can we drag innocent people into the war? What is the difference between these reasons and the terrorists who wage jihad? Aren't they also fighting for their beliefs, their freedoms, their rights?"
Heller was stunned, she could still scoff if someone else said such a thing, but her father said this, she wanted to refute but didn't know how to refute it.
There was a brief silence in the air.
"When MΓΌller was leaving, he asked me that even if we had the right reason to stand up and shoot at the beginning, but in the end, the war became more and more desperate, and the despair became more and more cruel, and we were still on the side of justice?" Dr. Hazard looked up at the blue sky, gasped for a moment, and then continued, "I didn't know how to answer at the time, and I didn't know if there was a good enough reason to let those lovely young girls into the training camp."
"And now?" asked Heller softly, her mind a mess of mud, she didn't really understand what was "good enough," and she wondered if it wasn't right enough to let them live "the normal life of a girl"?
This is a religious world.
"Now, Dad still hasn't found a correct enough answer. Maybe it's not that I don't have enough correct answers, but that my faith keeps me from finding the right answers. β
Dr. Hazard's voice was empty and long, like an aria from the abyss.
Heller seemed to sense his father's weakness, held his father's hand tightly, and whispered comfortingly, "Dad!
Dr. Hazard turned his head and stroked Heller's head again, and whispered, "Son, so do you know what a strong belief is?"
Heller remembered what Mill once said, "You have to choose not to believe that person or not to believe, but to choose whether to insist on justice", and she hesitated for a moment and said, "Stand up for justice?"
"We must insist on justice, because you have to be clear, our power never comes from guns, but from the justice we insist on in our hearts, we do not fight for profit, but for justice!"
"For justice?" said Heller, who looked eagerly at her father, "shouldn't I betray Mr. Rektzka?"
"It doesn't matter now, it doesn't matter now, you're a good girl, but you can't be a good leader, so don't worry too much" Dr. Hazard closed his eyes, he raised his hand and touched Heller's cheek lightly, and whispered, "The most important thing is that you must live well.
Heller shook his father's arm, "Dad, what should I do now? What should I do now?
Dr. Hazard didn't answer, he lay quietly in the cold tow box, bathed in the eternal sun, his big scarred hand hanging down.
"Daddy, Daddy!" shouted Heller, shaking his father's arm, but his father would no longer lecture her, nor would he look at her lovingly.
Tears were pouring down her red and swollen eyes again, and her mind was in a state of confusion, remembering all that had happened when she was a child. Her father took her to Damascus, bought her beautiful clothes and toys for her brother, they went on outings, pitched their tents, she couldn't sleep, her father told her stories all night, she went to school, no matter how busy she was, he would check her homework, and if she didn't do well, if she made too many mistakes, he would lecture her, and for a long time she hated this, she thought that her father was very verbose.
Later, her father had no time to teach her, because the war broke out, and her brother followed her to the battlefield, and she wanted to go, but she was thrown to relatives by her father and brother, and then her brother died, and her father grew ten years old. She cried for days, cut her hair short, and secretly ran to the women's training camp.
This time the father did not stop her again, nor did he give her any special treatment, nor did he even let people know that she was the daughter of the leader. She trains like an ordinary girl, wakes up early and goes to bed late, takes cold showers, runs and preserves, is exposed to the sun and rain, and rolls in the mud.
She had finally become a glorious queer soldier, and she rushed to her father's office to report to him that she was going to tell him that she could do it. But I accidentally saw my father holding a photo of my brother and left tears. She stood by the door and heard her father say, "How good it would be if there was no war." β
Yes! How good it is that there is no war. Her life will be simple and much happier. As long as there is no war, no matter what injuries you suffer, what pain you bear, and how chaotic you are.
There's always hope.
And when war breaks out, it destroys not only life, but also everyone's hope.
Everyone.
No one is immune.
No one can either.

Fifty-nine kilometres northeast of Dumaire Airport, Yusuf's deputy, Blake, is reliving the situation for Costa Lucas in the same place where he had just fought with the Queer Germans.
"There are four mercenaries left, so what about them?" asked Costa Lucas unhurriedly. "I don't know." Blake said hesitantly, "At that time, the boss was in a hurry to go back, so he let them stay here and change the tires by themselves."
"It's stupid. Costa Lucas said angrily, he walked to the side of the road, and saw the blood stains in the grass that had not been cleaned, and he sneered, "I didn't expect you to be so bold! Also, even the women of Napoleon VII dare to touch them, what else dare not be done."
Blake asked in a low voice, "All dead?"
Costa Lucas ignored Blake's question and asked in a deep voice, "Did the drone find it?"
"Not yet," Blake shook his head, "could they not be heading towards Dummel Airport?"
"This possibility cannot be completely ruled out."
Before Costa Lucas could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a loud thunderous noise. A dark red mushroom cloud rose to the southeast of Dumer Airport, and the tremor of the earth could be felt dozens of kilometers away.
Blake quickly hid in front of Costa Lucas and shouted, "Boss, be careful, there's an explosion." β
"Far away!" Costa Lucas pushed Blake, who had been loyal to the performance, and disappeared in place. He spread his white wings like a white carrier pigeon and soared towards the place where the smoke rose.

Cheng Mo walked to the screen with white light, the resolution of this screen is not high, it belongs to a very old touch screen, there is only time display on it, and there are no other superfluous icons. The word "guardian" is engraved on the bottom of the screen, and the font is not the standard English letter, which is artistic.
The entire rectangular metal block without a trace of seams is also quite cyberpunk, which reminds Cheng Mo of Tesla's pickup Cybertruck at first glance, with sharp edges and corners, smooth facets, and a simple shape.
There is no doubt that one of the three rectangular coffin-like boxes must have the body of the "Shaxx Demon God" inside.
Cheng Mo was thinking about whether to use the "Seven Sins Sect" to test the hardness of this thing, when he heard Xi Shi's voice behind him.
"That's why I said there was no chance, the vault-level safe house was just the first line of defense, and the body of the old thing was placed inside the 'guardian'. The 'Guardian' was originally a body protection device made by the Pentagon for the gods, which can withstand the explosion of a 100,000-ton nuclear bomb unscathed, except for the fact that I can open the door myself from the inside, no one can open it, even if the god will come in person, if you want to kill the people inside, it will take a lot of effort, not to mention take away the 'Uroboros', and if it is attacked, it will also sound an alarm."
Cheng Mo looked at Xi Shi who was standing at the door and said, "It's really too cautious." β
"The old thing is not only cautious, but also strong and terrifying. β
"Really?"
Xi Shi sneered and said, "Don't look at the 'Shaxx Demon God' is not well-known, and he is only ranked forty-four among the seventy-two pillar demon gods, but fifty years ago, he was a frequent visitor to the top ten of the heavenly list. When man landed on the moon for the first time and the first Armageddon War was held, the old man was just a little bit close to becoming a god. He was also one of the most powerful challengers in the next two sessions, but he missed it for the first time, and if he wanted to get the position of god general, he needed more than just personal strength. If he didn't get it three times, he decisively stopped fighting, did not waste time on the heavenly rankings, and concentrated on running his intelligence business. Now that he is older, he has lost interest in money, fame and fortune, and he only wants to continue his life, and joining the Black Death is also because of the Black Death's strong strength in medicine and life sciences. β
Cheng Mo nodded and said, "It turned out to be a hidden master who was afraid of death." β
Xi Shi sneered: "I know you are very powerful, but don't think that this old thing is past its peak, it is a soft persimmon, I can tell you, he is definitely not a strong man who can touch porcelain with cats and dogs, and there will definitely be no problem if you want to get the top ten on the heavenly list.
"Okay!" Cheng Mo shrugged his shoulders, "Athena definitely can't count on it." β
Seeing that Cheng Mo seemed to have chosen to give up, Xi Shi changed the topic and asked, "You arranged the attack?"
"Yes. Cheng Mo didn't deny it, he said helplessly, "How do I know I'm going to meet you!
Xi Shi said angrily: "Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"Didn't you tell me about the Guardian either?"
"It doesn't matter if I say this or not. β
"It's useless for me to say this, and I can't contact the person who carried out the attack."
Xi Shi didn't continue to speak, she paced back and forth at the door, frowning and looking anxious and struggling, thinking for a moment, she grabbed Cheng Mo's wrist, dragged him towards the door, and whispered: "The old thing is estimated to come over soon, you hurry up, go to Dumer Airport and wait for me, now only I can take you away." β
Cheng Mo stood still, "I'm leaving, how do you explain?"
"You don't have to worry about this. β
Cheng Mo didn't think that the other party was well-intentioned and wanted to save himself, "Is it worth taking such a big risk for the sake of the 'Lord of the Plague'?"
Shishi turned around and whispered, "Selen, this is not you I know, you shouldn't talk so much nonsense!"
"You may never know me," Cheng Mo whispered, the pale golden pillar of light of the "Seven Sins Sect" lit up in his hand, and the "Sword of Punishment" was shining in the dimly lit room

But in an instant, Costa Lucas flew to the scene of the explosion.
On the Gobi Highway leading to Dumer Airport, the fortress-like black RV was parked in an arc on the side of the road, with a crater left by the explosion on its side, like the site of a meteorite impact. In front of and behind it, some of the Humvees overturned to the ground, some had been lit into bonfires, and a few pillars of black smoke were shooting into the clear sky. Some of the mercenaries were rescuing people, some were hiding behind cars, dodging bullets that came from nowhere.
Costa Lucas was lightning fast, he landed on the ground like a falcon, his feet hit the ground, his white wings closed behind his back and disappeared, he appeared like a phantom in front of Aldrich next to the front of the RV, and asked in a deep voice: "Aldrich, where is Shisch?"
Aldrich was stunned for a moment, probably surprised by Costa Lucas's incredible speed, and asked a little dazedly, "My lord, why are you here?"
Costa Lucas said coldly, "What about Shich, I ask you?"
"Oh, Shish, She's gone to find the enemy, let me guard here. β
"More than an hour ago, did anyone who followed Yusuf go out back to safety?"
Aldrich nodded hurriedly: "Yes." β
"What about people?"
"I don't know, I'll have to ask Shish. β
Costa Lucas turned on the Chosen One's intercom without saying a word, and was about to call Shish, when he saw Aldrich in front of him suddenly turn into a DNA helix. His face changed drastically, and he rushed towards the RV like the wind, he swept over the edge of the deep pit and flew to the side of the RV, a dazzling white light lit up like a crescent moon, and the RV, which was extremely strong in the explosion, was split in two from the deformed alloy door.
With a "bang" sound, the RV hung down on the front half of the bowl-shaped crater, pulling the sound of gold and iron, and rolled down the crater. The second half shook twice, and stood firmly on the edge of the crater.
Costa Lucas jumped into the carriage, the cold wind blowing through and blowing away the thick aroma of whiskey, he turned his head to glance at the "Diamond Celebration" poured on the coffee table, the two broken glasses, and a few torn camouflage uniforms, and stepped on the broken floor, and walked briskly towards the safe.
Entering fingerprints on the panel, verifying the iris, and entering the password, Costa Lucas tore the door open and saw Cheng Mo ripping off Uroboros from several of his subordinates who were not protected by the "Guardian", while his poor subordinates were all sitting in the safety seats with their heads drooping, scarlet blood gushing down from their necks.
Costa Lucas clapped and walked inside, "Awesome, boy!
Cheng Mo stopped what he was doing, naturally stuffed a piece of Uroboros in his hand into his trouser pocket, and turned to look at the man dressed in white. The other party has soft blonde hair, deep, narrow eyes, like a falcon, a high nose, a very fleshy nose, and pale pink lips are very tight. At first glance, he looks very ordinary, but in fact it is very distinctive, especially since he has no eyebrows, which makes people feel that he has seen a humanoid jaguar.
No need to ask, Cheng Mo knows that this must be the carrier of the demon god Shaxx. He looked at the approaching demon god Shaxx and said lightly, "Thank you for the compliment." β
Before Cheng Mo's words fell, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and the whole person seemed to rise up, bent in mid-air like a cooked shrimp. He spasmed and lost all his strength and fell to his knees, a mouthful of fishy sweet blood spitting on the silver-gray alloy floor.
The Shaxx Demon God grabbed his curly hair, dragged him out of the safe, and said nonchalantly: "We could have had a good talk, but I don't like people like you who have no principles and no bottom line." How can you trample on the laws so casually?"
Cheng Mo spat the blood on the wooden floor that cracked into broken cobwebs, grabbed the wrist of the Shaxx Demon God and struggled to stand up, and said in a cold voice: "I don't like you to treat ordinary people as the chosen ones of ants. β
Shaxx Demon God waved his hand casually, and Cheng Mo smashed it on the marble coffee table like a plastic bottle that was thrown out, and then bounced to the sofa.
Cheng Mo felt as if he had fallen apart, every bone was painful, he coughed violently, and blood splattered everywhere.
"You really have compassion, Mr. Cheng Mo. Shaxx Demon God replaced English with Chinese, and he looked down at Cheng Mo and said, "Could it be that the Great Demon King, who killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Frenchmen, is now awakened and wants to change his evil and return to the great hero who saved the world?"
Cheng Mo forced himself to sit up on the sofa, he raised his hand to wipe the blood from his mouth, trembling and picking up the bottle of "Diamond Celebration" from the ground, the sun was already slanting in the sky, orange eyes shot in from the broken cross-section, illuminating the dark brown wine into a golden yellow, Cheng Mo unscrewed the cap, raised his head and drank a large sip of aromatic Scottish vintage. The liquor slid down his throat and into his stomach, easing the pain, and he said casually, "I don't care what anyone thinks, I just be myself, Mr. Shaxx." β
"Well, young man, I admire your courage to express yourself. Costa Lucas tilted his head, and the sideboard trembled, and countless silver knives and forks flew out, like steel locusts hanging around Costa Lucas, the silver, in the reflection of the slanting sun, emitting a scorching flame. Costa Lucas glanced at Cheng Mo's wrist, "It seems that you have lost your 'Ulopolos'? but I won't care so much, you have to hand over the 'Lord of the Plague', take it out, and I will spare your life, otherwise"
Cheng Mo curled the corners of his mouth and said with a slight mockery: "Otherwise, what?"
"I will take all the people who have anything to do with you, and cut off their flesh piece by piece in front of you."
A silver dinner knife swept through the air and plunged straight into Cheng Mo's ear like lightning, fortunately Cheng Mo turned on his dynamic vision, and at the last moment, he tilted his head and avoided the fate of cutting off his ear with a dinner knife. With a "duh", the table knife hung with a bead of blood, inserted into the wooden veneer behind it, and shook for a while before stopping.
"It's good to be young, to react fast enough. Costa Lucas smiled, "But you may not be so lucky next time!"
"You're not going to have this chance. Cheng Mo said as he stared at Costa Lucas expressionlessly.
"Huh?" Costa Lucas said as if he had heard a funny joke, "what did you say?"
"You're not going to have this chance. Cheng Mo said coldly again, "I won't let anything threaten me." β
"Young people are just naΓ―ve. Costa Lucas took off a dinner knife and spun it in his hand, saying mockingly, "You don't think queer Germans are going to die for you, do you?"
Cheng Mo said lightly: "Do you know magic?"
"Magic?" Costa Lucas shook his head and sneered, "I advise you to be realistic, there is no need to delay time, no one can save you." β
Cheng Mo took another big sip of whiskey, "The ultimate meaning of magic is to divert attention and let the target focus on what the magician wants him to focus on."
Costa Lucas looked at Cheng Mo for a long time, "So what?"
"It's like this."
Cheng Mo smashed the bottle in his hand at Costa Lucas, but the bottle was still in mid-air and was beaten to pieces by Costa Lucas with a fork, and the golden wine fell like fireworks in the evening light, and in the crystal water, a silver table knife stabbed Costa Lucas like lightning.
Unfortunately, the knife still didn't get close to Costa Lucas before it was hit to the ceiling by another floating fork.
Costa Lucas smiled and said, "That's it?"
Cheng Mo smiled and said, "Look at your clothes!"
Costa Lucas looked down and saw a trail of bright red blood on his snow-white dress. His face contorted, and his smile vanished. Costa Lucas suddenly disappeared in place, stood on the coffee table, stepped on Cheng Mo's neck with his shiny pointed scalp shoes, and said coldly while crushing: "Young man, you lack the respect you should have for your elders!"
Cheng Mo wanted to lift that foot, but it was as heavy as a thousand pounds, like a crane arm pressing against his throat. The huge pressure made him unable to breathe, he could only let out a "hehe" gasp sound, his face turned purple, his whole body was scorched in flames, his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and he felt like his lungs were about to burst.
Costa Lucas let go of his foot a little, so that Cheng Mo would not die violently.
Cheng Mo took the opportunity to breathe heavily, like a fish on the shore.
"Don't show off your cleverness in front of me, you weren't even a piece of gold when I was in the world. β
Cheng Mo thought to himself, "It should be soon! How long will I delay?" At this moment, he saw a few faint white spots appear in the white sky.
Cheng Mo curled the corners of his lips, and in the panting with all his might, he struggled and said, "Old, old thing, you, you also lack, lack of affirmation for young people. I said that the ultimate meaning of magic is to divert the attention of the target. You think I, I want to kill your being, but it's not, and my goal is to destroy your carrier first."
Costa Lucas smiled and stomped on Cheng Mo's neck again, "What are you daydreaming about?"
Cheng Mo desperately held on to the leather shoes pressed against his neck, and at the same time laughed, his mouth was full of blood, and the fake nose stuck to his nose also fell off, looking like a clown without much makeup, he squeezed out a ho-ho tone from the blood in his mouth: "You should turn your head and see, see what's coming."
Costa Lucas turned his head and saw a dense patch of white Perseus missiles raining down in the direction of the RV in the bright and burning sunset.
Cheng Mo looked at Costa Lucas's stunned expression, and said in his heart: Should I shout at this time: "Arrows."
