1. The Wolf Smoke of Change (6)
The speed of infrastructure construction in the Saarbadu District is second to none in the world, on the one hand, the damage to road facilities caused by the war is not large, and the foundation is not bad, and on the other hand, the Governor's Office vigorously promotes infrastructure construction, and the special needs of the war are strong, and various factors naturally develop rapidly. After the establishment of a special agency to thoroughly manage and regulate, and the extensive application of new technologies, the main road connecting the Special Administrative Region to various places is no less than that of similar facilities in Charlemagne.
Even so, the remote countryside far from the city is hardly reaped by this blessing, and the slogan "If you want to get rich, build roads first", there are still dirt roads that have been pressed by the soles of pedestrians' shoes, horses' hooves and the wheels of horse-drawn carriages for thousands of years. There are no special paving, no slate, no asphalt, no street lights and other facilities. The road that runs from the village of Pallas is like this, and it can be classified into a more complete category, at least the main road is wide enough for two carriages to meet without colliding, and occasionally a wooden sign that appears to be a road sign can be seen on the side of the road.
You also know that it is very dangerous to walk here after dark.
Bandits, robbers, carnivores...... Knowing that there is such a risk, they still walk on this night path are not stupid daring or suicidal volunteers, only-
"The smell is very strong, it should not be far off. ”
Shadows jumping back and forth between the trees discerned the stench in the air, and two shadows followed closely behind.
There were no torches, no village lights, and a few rays of moonlight through the clouds outlined the outline of the forest, and three figures leaped between the branches. After a few takeoffs, the shadows landed next to a carriage that had flipped to the side of the road.
The carriage was shattered, and judging by the wreckage, it seemed that it was overspeeding and causing it to roll over.
What's the reason to run wild on the path in the dark midnight?
Blackened red.
The rust-like colors were scattered and splashed, and the wagons, ground, and grass were full of oxidized and depleted bloodstains, and the white bones in the bloodstains were particularly eye-catching.
"Judging by the drying process, it should have been a few hours. ”
In the red center, like the center of the explosion, the black shadow picked up a thigh bone and said leisurely.
"Quite an appetite for a family of four. By the way, even the horse also ate. ”
"It's unbelievable. I've really come here. It stands to reason that after the enhancement and transformation, the consciousness capacity should be fully filled with auxiliary techniques, and it is impossible to think and act on your own except for receiving instructions to act. Why do you want to come back here......"
"Maybe there's something you don't want to forget. It could also be a problem with the procedure. But these things don't matter. ”
A foot on the bones. The voice of indifference trembled in the night.
"It was originally a consumable for long-range shelling and law and order warfare. Although I don't even understand basic tactics, I have light weapons and my physical fitness has improved slightly. Whether it's to search for it or to annihilate it. It won't work the usual way. ”
The targets of organic biological weapons are mainly guerrillas and resistance groups lurking in the mountains and forests. In the face of small units that have been broken into pieces, it is necessary to have more mobility, search ability, concealment and firepower than the guerrillas. In this sense, they are more intelligent professional guerrillas.
Because of this, conventional anti-guerrilla tactics are not applicable to organic biological weapons, and for the sake of secrecy, it is impossible to use crowd tactics to conduct dragnet searches, and the consortium can only rely on a small number of elites to carry out operations.
A super elite who is a thousand, or even invincible, with reasonable tactics and weapon configurations.
"What about the two-way communicator?"
"One qiē is normal. ”
The moon peeked out from behind the clouds, and the bright moonlight illuminated the shadows, frivolous teenagers, well-mannered teenagers, impersonal youths.
The Seven Deadly Sins. De Kiel of lust, Jerres of jealousy, Walgrevo of arrogance.
"Every qiē within a radius of 250 kilometers is under the watchful eye of my eagle. ”
Dekyll closed his left eye and smiled confidently.
Magicians have the practice of connecting with the demon to share sensory techniques, conduct long-distance reconnaissance and search, and use the demon's eye to see the movements of distant enemies.
This is a very convenient procedure, but there are also problems. Magicians can only control 1~2 demons at a time, and more will occupy too much consciousness capacity to be handled, and most of these techniques are just visual sharing, which cannot maximize the special abilities of animals.
De Kiel is completely free from these constraints, and with his "sensory manipulation" skills, he can easily adjust his senses, through several relay points and up to 30 magic links, to carry out a compound search of smell, sound waves, optics, thermal induction, and ground vibration. Arguably the sharpest and most detectable eagle eye in the world, no prey can be separated from his perceptual range.
"Judging by the tracks, it should be moving in the direction of the city, about 1 hour away from us. ”
Dekyll shrugged and smiled.
"I thought it was a difficult task, but it was unexpectedly easy. ”
In response to his frivolity, a murderous aura suddenly emerged, and a faint green starlight appeared in the darkness, one pair, two pairs...... A large amount of ghostly light surrounded them
It was the eyes peculiar to reptiles, and they could see no emotion except for the instinct to fill their stomachs.
Monitor lizards, one of the most dangerous predators in the wild. Adult monitor lizards can grow up to 3~4 meters, have a forked tongue like a snake, and also use their tongues to capture odor particles in the air, and can detect the smell of food within 1000 meters. When pounced on animals, they are extremely ferocious, running very fast, with a powerful tail, a tail whip at the end of a stout tail to sweep down enemies, and a sharp claw that can tear prey to pieces with a light stroke. The teeth are jagged, there is a huge venom duct in the front of the jaw, and the mouth breeds a large number of bacteria and germs, which will lower the blood pressure of the prey bitten by it, and then bleed non-stop, and finally die of infection, which is eaten by monitor lizards that track the smell.
Although monitor lizards can attack even large domestic animals such as cattle and horses, there are also cases of attacks on humans. However, monitor lizards are usually active in the deep mountains and are solitary creatures. Unless an intruder invades the territory or needs to replenish energy before and after hibernation, it is normal to rarely attack humans, let alone attack a few people in groups.
At this moment, the monitor lizard surrounded the three of them.
"It doesn't look like it's boring. ”
"After all, I'm a person who prioritizes pleasure over work, and the middle of the night is the best time to attack the young master at night, and if you're lucky, you can roll the sheets without shame or something. Now I can only run around, and I always feel that it is not enough. ”
"It's your business to mess around after that, if you can't continue working now, just get back to me. I will elaborate on the causes and consequences of this in the report later. ”
“...... Only this absolutely not. Spare me. ”
"How's the situation in the village?"
The nearest village to here is the village of Pallas. If the animal had followed the road, it would have been possible to have entered the village of Pallas and come into contact with people.
"Nothing unusual yet. You may have no desire to eat after you have eaten and drunk enough. As for whether the information spread in the village. We can't confirm it yet. ”
"Hurry up to confirm. ”
"Understood. ”
De Kiel and Woll Grevo talked to each other casually, oblivious to their surroundings. Not to mention the monitor lizards, even the shaking of the ground, the wailing of the crushed trees, and the heavy breathing were all the same.
The monitor lizards made a way. The dull steps cut through the shadows of the trees, and the strange forms were displayed in the moonlight.
"Goo-goo-goo-goo......"
The head and neck of the rooster appear first, but the part that should be covered with feathers is wrapped in snake-like scales, and the bat-like wings are folded, and the snake's tail whips the air and makes a "crackling" noise.
Cockatrice, one of the very few dangerous species with intelligence, is clearly the one that drives the monitor lizard.
Lifeless eyes stared at the three of them, and the dead fish-like eyes swirled around, and finally froze.
The snake and the beast swooped down, and the cannonball shot at Gelus, his eyes flashing with Mana's light, and the monitor lizard swarmed up.
Containing the rest of the team, using the "petrification" technique to surprise the weakest target, reducing the number of targets as quickly as possible, while shaking the remaining prey, the snake, the chicken's movement is completely in line with the basic principles of tactics, with its speed and the large number of monitor lizards, this tactic is completely reasonable.
In an instant, the snakes, chickens, beasts, and monitor lizards were all frozen in mid-air.
Not magic, not of their own will, the pitch-black whip bound them in mid-air.
Not an ordinary whip, the grip is an extremely rare ring shape that splits from the front of the grip and extends into 18 whips.
Weapons that were not in common sense were on the left and right, stretching out to the length of their clothes, wrapping around trees and beasts.
"In the past, the death penalty of a prisoner with a beast of prey was saved, and when it was used to deter the people with terror, it also played a role in stimulating and entertaining, lions, tigers, bears, leopards, and even dangerous species, only one animal was used for execution, which was the most terrifying, do you know what it is?"
The whip tightened slightly, slowly tightening its prey, the snake-chicken-beast's eyes bulged, and the light of the hastily activated petrification technique gradually dimmed, replaced by the dark red of blood vessels around the pupils. The sound of something fragile breaking shook in the air, and the slightly open mouth spat out the only remaining air in the lungs and a silent scream.
"The answer is Monty Python. It has no sharp claws or poison, and it has no habit of moving in groups, but its body can be described as a strangulation machine made of muscles and bones. The bones shattered little by little in the sound of click, the internal organs and brain marrow became a mosaic, and all the air in the lungs was squeezed out, and even screams could not be made...... Such a scene is unforgettable. However, my whip is more terrible than that of a python, after all, a python can't twist its prey, right?"
From the top of their heads to the soles of their feet, snakes, chickens, beasts, and monitor lizards swirled and twisted like rags, their skin torn, blood burst out, and their visceral muscles flew into the air. The 36 whips curled back like creatures and disappeared without a sound.
"Hey, it's just a few beasts, there's no need to be so ruthless. ”
"The ...... of the Beast"
"Huh?"
"Just a beast, that's bigger than me, this kind of thing...... Can this kind of thing be forgiven?!!!"
DeKir turned to the side, the genitals could barely be discerned from the rag-like corpse of the snake, chicken and beast, and although it had been twisted to almost shatter, it was normal for a beast to be nearly 4 meters long and larger than a human. It's a bit of a ...... to compare Jelles the size of a beast and kill the other person for this
"I said you, according to your standards, aren't all dangerous species and ancient species going to die, and that place bigger than you must die?"
"That kind of thing is a matter of course, right?! Those who are more handsome than me, richer than me, more educated than me, and who think differently from me will die! Yes, there will also be a dog who has left the group! All of them must die! Yes, they will all die! Hanged! Burned!"
For a moment, reason seemed to be withdrawn from Jelles, and he hunched over and shouted like he was having an epileptic seizure. De Kiel and Walgrevo on the side looked at each other in surprise, and let Jelles perform alone.
The essence of the great sin of "jealousy" is "excessive love for oneself, which leads to hatred for things different from oneself", and the expression of Gelles is extremely hostile to oneself, whether it is appearance or thought, as long as there is a difference with oneself, it will produce irritation. For him, the world is perfect only if he is everywhere, after all, only then will there be no zài differences, and he will not hurt himself.
On weekdays, he can play the perfect superman through guò, arouse the jealousy of others, and use the almost instinctive affection of superiority to endure it. But patience is only temporary after all, and if he doesn't vent regularly like this, he will go crazy sooner or later.
“...... It looks like a considerable amount of work pressure has accumulated. ”
"How long is that going to last?"
"Normally, it takes about 30 minutes, because there is a lot of pressure accumulated around the little young master...... It's going to take at least 1 hour. ”
Although the secretarial work is not leisurely, with Jelles's ability, it is not enough to accumulate enough pressure to run wild, in the end, it is the pressure caused by the women around Roland. Obviously they are all virgins, and there are a bunch of women of various attributes around them...... It's really going to make him stressful.
Because of this, the part about this battle diverting the attention of Roland and the church must not be known to Gelles. Otherwise, it will kill people.
At that time, he will never stop at the FFF group's firewood knives, torches, gasoline and other petty fights, but he will use the hundreds of millions of degrees of ultra-high temperature of nuclear fusion strikes to purify the current heresy.
"So, how is your part?"
"The modification has been completed, and there is no clue from the appearance, and the response to the reaction of the crowd during the parade and the possible situation, the connection between the procedure and the device, and the setting of the timing have all been completed. All that's left is to expect them to act according to the schedule. ”
"There must be no mistakes, this is the task assigned by the adult, and it is an important task. ”
"You can rest assured. ”
De Kir shrugged, a well-worn smile on his lips.
"So far, I haven't messed up something I love once, right?"
That smile resembles a snake staring at its prey. (To be continued......)
