Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 868: Orifice

Views:

"Yeah, what about the disaster of blood light?" Long Yuehong is quite sensitive to this matter.

In this operation, several members of the "Old Tune Team" did not even get a wound. The most serious blow they suffered was being hit by a stone when they fell to sleep on the ground.

Bai Chen, who was driving, turned his head to look at Long Yuehong next to him, and stayed on his chest for two seconds:

"Is this a bloody disaster?"

Because he shot Qiao Chu at close range, a lot of blood was splattered on Long Yuehong's clothes, and it looked like he was injured.

Recalling the blood red after Qiao Chu fell to the ground, Long Yuehong replied hesitantly:

"Forget it..."

Could it be that it was not himself and others who suffered the bloody disaster, but Qiao Chu and Professor Qin

The blood that Shang Jianyao saw actually came from them

Jiang Baimian thought about it and said:

"It can only be said barely.

"So, until tomorrow comes, we must not let our guard down, lest the prophecy be fulfilled in ways we did not expect."

"Bai Mian is only cautious in his life." Shang Jian Yaofu praised.

Jiang Baimian glared at him, then said:

"Will we discuss the distribution of the spoils with the clone of Gitis, or will we go directly to her after we are done with other things?"

"This should be asked by Jitis." Shang Jianyao pointed out.

In the next second, the voice of Gitis' male body sounded in their ears at the same time:

"Meet me at the safe house I prepared at night."

She's off today and doesn't need to go to the "Fire and Iron" hotel.

"Okay." Jiang Baimian nodded with a smile.

She felt that in the style of Gitis, at this time, she would not fail to monitor the internal communication of herself and others, so as not to cross the river to demolish the bridge and kill the donkey.

The "Old Tune Team" returned to the "Fire and Iron" hotel and entered the suite with the loot they had harvested.

They were not in a hurry to verify the functions of the two items, but Shang Jianyao explained the information he had found in Professor Qin's "Sea of Origin" in detail.

After repeated confirmation, Genova took out the map of the old world and clicked somewhere on the icefield:

"The Eighth Research Institute should be here."

Immediately afterwards, he unfolded the rudimentary maps made by contemporary artists and compared them.

"Well, I probably know the exact location." Jiang Baimian nodded.

She pondered for a while and said:

"On the matter of the Eighth Research Institute, our task ends here. The next step is to report the position to the company, and the board of directors will decide how to deal with it."

"I hope they will unite with other major forces and directly destroy the Eighth Research Institute!" Shang Jianyao said, "I want to participate too".

"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong had a very bad impression of the Eighth Research Institute.

Moreover, the "Old Tune Group" has been attacked by the Eighth Research Institute several times.

This organization will not be destroyed, unless he returns to the underground building and stops going out, Long Yuehong will not be completely relieved.

Jiang Baimian immediately moved out of the group's radio transceiver, sent back the specific location of the Eighth Research Institute, and asked the Security Department to confirm it with a password in the shortest possible time, so as to prevent himself and others from being disturbed and unable to send the information. Report success without knowing it.

After a few minutes, "Pangu Creature" called back, affirmed the contribution of the "Old Tune Group" in the form of a password, and then told them that the biological preparations they had applied for were in reserve within the sphere of influence of the "White Knights". In a day, it will be delivered to Gerstburg.

"The company actually reserves those two biological agents within the sphere of influence of the 'White Knights'?" Long Yuehong was a little surprised.

While this was one of the scenarios that "Old Tune Group" expected, he didn't think it would actually happen.

Jiang Baimian thought about it and said:

"Maybe the diseases of Gitis's parents are more common in the 'White Knights', and the company's intelligence personnel specially prepared some to buy them at critical moments."

Thinking of the bad environment in the factory area, the air quality in Gustburg, and the labor of workers leaving early and returning late, Long Yuehong felt that the team leader's reasons were quite convincing.

Jiang Baimian immediately returned a telegram from "Pangu Biology", reporting the follow-up itinerary and plans.

The content is very simple, that is, the "old tune group" will go to Konimis to find the whereabouts of Shang Jianyao's father's team.

This was what they had told them before they set off, and with the fact that Shang Jianyao's father was involved, no one could make a mistake in making such a decision.

Gitis' male body drove a crimson off-road vehicle to the neighborhood where he usually haunts.

In a certain room there, Gitis has been waiting for a while, preparing to take back the Bodhi statue.

Before long, Gitis' male body found a place to park in a secluded alley.

"He" just opened the car door, took the Bodhi statue down, and suddenly a figure was outlined in the open space beside him.

This figure is a female, with an oval face, willow eyebrows, and extremely symmetrical facial features, as if it was specially polished by an artist.

She wears a white shirt, blue denim jacket, a broad-brimmed high-top felt hat on her head, and holds two "United 202" in her hands.

At the same time she appeared, two dark muzzles aimed at Gitis' male body.

With two bangs, the blood-colored flowers bloomed, and Gitis' male body was torn apart.

Before "he" could react, he fell to the ground with serious injuries and entered a state of dying.

The attacker shot him two more times in the head, and the blood was pouring out.

Then, she put away the pistol, bent down, quickly picked up the Bodhi statue, and left the scene from the other end of the alley.

In a room one or two hundred meters away from here, Gitis "saw" the scene of the clone being attacked.

It was all so sudden that she couldn't react at all, couldn't use her abilities, and then she was enveloped by the painful feeling transmitted back by her avatar consciousness.

She let out an uncontrollable scream, and her body twitched and fell, curled up.

When she initially returned to normal, she felt a splitting headache and an empty spirit, while worrying about the rest of her clones.

The Bodhi statue is now quite far away from her, and she can no longer sense it, let alone manipulate it, but the effects of "Magic Mirror" and "Destiny" can still be maintained for a while, so that her other clones will not be on the spot. Violent death.

Gitis, who knew that it was unsustainable, was angry and anxious, but she still maintained a basic calm, and let the bodies enter the "death" process.

This allows those around the clone to be prepared for what will happen next, without being too shocked.

This is the question that Gitis has long thought about how to end it.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian met Jitis in the safe house.

"What, the Bodhi statue was robbed?" Shang Jianyao was shocked.

To be honest, he hurriedly added:

"You don't think we did it, do you?"

"If it's you, there are other opportunities, and even I can kill it together." Jitis's expression was gloomy and hesitant.

"Have you seen the attacker?" Jiang Baimian asked.

Gittes recalled:

"Have."

She informed the "Old Tune Team" of how and what the attacker looked like.

"We have seen this person!" Shang Jianyao replied enthusiastically, "She is also from the Eighth Research Institute, and is good at stealth and assassination."

Jiang Baimian said "um":

"Qiao Chu, Professor Qin's collaborator

"If she had also shot at that time, the outcome might have been completely different."

This is not her exaggeration. Although the "Old Tune Group" has guarded against this assassin, there are still too few ways to deal with it.

"She was late, so she followed Jitis's avatar, snatched the statue of Bodhi, and then used this against us?" Shang Jianyao made a bold guess.

Gitis hesitated for a moment and said:

"I feel like she was there waiting for my doppelganger in the first place..."

"This is a bit strange," said Jiang Baimian, the representative of Shang Jianyao.

Gustburg, in the room upstairs in Gittes' house.

Xu Lan, who stole the Bodhi statue, turned on the radio and tuned to a certain frequency band.

After finishing this thing, she closed her eyes and waited patiently.

Not long after, Wu Meng's voice came from the radio:

"Did you make it?"

"I got the statue." Xu Lan replied.

Wu Meng laughed:

"Very well, then you just need to send it to Ruin No. 13, and send it to me, and you will be free. At the same time, I will also give you the 'Asymmetric Way'.

"As the saying goes, the way of heaven is to win without fighting, and asymmetry is the greatest symmetry..."

Xu Lan nodded and said:

"it is good."

She immediately exclaimed:

"Your judgment is accurate. I followed that team, and as expected, I ran into the statue. If I hadn't endured until they dealt with Professor Qin and found out the exact location of the research institute, I would have done it a long time ago.

"Professor Qin is in such a hurry to ambush and want to make meritorious deeds. Wasn't he influenced by you at some point?"

Wu Meng smiled leisurely:

"The Dao is the Dao, the non-constant Dao..."
