Chapter 3: Escape from the Base
After Walter fell, Sumer's throat was strangled by a small hand.
With a "bang", he was pressed against the wall by Nuobai.
The dark eyes behind the mask were full of murderous intent.
Nuo Bai stared at Su Mo vigilantly, and took out a retro nine-button mobile phone from his arms.
Slender fingers press quickly on the nine keys.
She pointed the screen at Su Mo, and a line was written on it:
Why do you know my name? γ
Su Mo smiled and began to play tricks: "It's very unexpected, isn't it?" It seems that some of the intermediaries you've worked with... Behind your back, you made an unknown intelligence deal with the co-operative company? β
Nuo Bai's eyes became colder and colder, and he typed:
[Who?] γ
Su Mo continued to show an unfathomable smile: "Miss Silent Death, you should know that nothing in this world is free. β
"You can find out the name of this leaker - if you have something of equivalent to exchange with me."
As the words fell, Su Mo felt his neck being choked tighter, making him almost unable to breathe.
Nuo Bai's eyes were full of murderous intent, she pressed her fingers, and a line of cold words appeared on the mobile phone screen:
[I have a lot of ways to get you to speak]
Su Mo was pinched very uncomfortable, but he still squeezed out a sneer: "You didn't kill me immediately, but you wanted to take me away, presumably someone who took the kidnapping commission." If you make me a bloody mess, the employer behind you will be unhappy, right? β
Nuobai was speechless.
"What's moreβ" Su Mo gestured to the radio on the wall.
The alarm sounded just right: "Countdown to the base self-destruct procedure, 2 minutes." β
Nuobai was speechless again.
Su Mo squinted his eyes and said, "Nuobai, you don't have time to ask me. Why don't you make a deal? β
"You let me go, just tell the intermediary that the 101 base is too heavily guarded, beyond expectations, and decided to give up the commission, and then pay the employer three times the commission. The impact on reputation can be minimized. β
"And in return, I'll tell you who sold your personal information."
The two looked at each other, but neither of them moved.
In the end, things didn't go the way Summer had hoped.
Nuo Bai coldly typed two words:
γKeep upγ
She grabbed Su Mo's arm and dragged him out.
Su Mo frowned.
Did the negotiation fail...
It seems that the road of mouth escape is not going to work.
But you can't just be sent to the Iron Blood.
Otherwise, his experience will be exactly the same as the plot of the original work.
When the time comes, he will be tormented by the pain of being eaten by the blood code of the Ancestors, and he will not be able to survive and die.
You have to find another way to change the direction of the plot.
Su Mo let one of his arms be dragged by Nuo Bai, and the other hand hung down beside him, his four fingers were folded, and he used his nails to dig hard in the palm of his hand.
The hot pain came through his skin, and as he digged and digged, the pain made sweat stars appear on his forehead.
But instead of stopping, he pushed harder and harder, as if he wanted to grab the flesh off the palm of his hand.
Nuo Bai didn't have eyes behind him, and even if he did, it would be impossible to notice such subtle movements.
At last...
With a sharp pain that pierced his heart, Su Mo's palm was scratched by himself.
The heat flows out of the palm of the hand and runs down the finger.
"Tick."
Blood dripped to the ground, and the sound was drowned out by the cacophony of sirens.
Su Mo's eyes were solemn, looking at the exit that was getting closer and closer in front of him.
This is the last hope...
...
...
...
Eight hours later.
The self-destruct procedure is irreversible, and Research Base 101 has been completely destroyed in the massive explosion, leaving only charred wreckage all over the ground.
Several large floating boats hovered over the ruins of the base, and soldiers in the uniforms of the company were constantly landing on individual aircraft and carrying out aftermath operations around them.
Among the soldiers were eight men in pitch-black uniforms, with very special armbands on the sides of their arms, which were in the shape of a razor.
If Su Mo was here, he would recognize that these eight people belonged to the "Razor Rapid Reaction Force", one of the four elites of the company, and each of them was a strong "blood code carrier".
A soldier in charge of directing the excavation ran over and reported to the Razor Warrior in charge: "Team Arrow, Base 101 has been completely destroyed, no survivors have been found around, and the researchers and guards should have been killed." β
"But there's good news, we've found something in the rubble."
At this moment, an excavation robot emerges from the rubble, its robotic arm holding a black sphere the size of a fist.
The black sphere was covered in dust and burns, and the shell was cratered, but the indicator light was still green.
Seeing this black sphere, the scene resounded with cheers.
The soldier also smiled: "Fortunately, the "Black Core" was saved in self-destruction, and it should have a backup of all the relevant data of Base 101. β
Arotic nodded and said to the soldiers, "You go and organize the convoy and send the black nucleus back to the nearest branch here." β
"Yes." The soldier left.
Arrot called another site surveyor: "Did you find any traces?" β
"Yes, just found out." The surveyor pressed on the mechanical wrist wheel, bringing up a clear hologram.
"We found two sets of shoe prints coming in and out around the base, and one of them matched when they went in and came out," he reported. The other set of shoe prints doesn't match, and it's not the same person who goes in and out,"
"We have a preliminary judgment that there are two people who invaded the base, and one of them died in the base for some reason. When the other man came out, he took one of the researchers from the base hostage and took them away. β
The razor soldier next to him reminded Arrot: "Team leader, there is already a risk of leaks. Either recover the kidnapped researcher or wipe him out. β
Arot immediately ordered everyone: "Make every effort to investigate the traces of the surrounding scene, and report to me as soon as you find anything unusual." β
Half an hour later.
The voice of the scout soldier came from the communicator: "Team Leader Arrot, we found a bloodstain, come and take a look." β
Arrot led the Razor Warrior to the target location.
It was a drop of dried blood, dripping on the sand and gravel, more than a hundred meters away from the base, very insignificant, but it did not escape the traces of professionals.
One razor warrior frowned and said, "Leave your own blood at the scene?" Would an intruder make such a low-level mistake? β
Arot narrowed his eyes slightly: "It doesn't have to be left by the invaders. β
Razor Warrior reacted: "You mean... Kidnapped researcher stayed? β
Arrot summons another Razor Warrior: "Turn on your Blood Coding ability." β
This razor warrior has been implanted with the "White Shark Blood Code", and his sense of smell has been superbly enhanced, and his sense of smell is dozens of times that of a hunting dog when activated, comparable to a shark in the sea.
He lay on the ground and sniffed the blood, then poked his nose into the air and inhaled.
"Huh? So closeβ" His eyes sharpened, and he walked briskly in one direction.
He sniffed through his nose and finally stopped at a rocky beach.
He rummaged through the rocky beach and quickly picked up a rock.
There was a drop of dried blood on it.
He put the stone in front of his nose and sniffed it, saying, "The same smell of blood." β
Arrot: "Keep tracking. β
The Razor Warrior looked at the vast wasteland from afar, and as if he had smelled something again, he ran a few hundred meters and rummaged back and forth in a barren grass.
On the dead grass, there was another inconspicuous drop of blood.
The Razor Warrior looked in the direction where the scent extended, his gaze falling due north, a sneer on his face.
"The researcher left us a mark."
