--Remember!

"Am I going to die here? I hate this damn place! I hate this desert from the bottom up! If I knew I would die here today, I wouldn't have come here even if I had to pretend to be sick or break my own legs! Who? Come and save us? Who will send a few more armored divisions here, or simply send a mad-level ability user here? Where are those adults who usually pretend to be powerful? Where is the grand commander I believe in now? Where did those guys in heavy armor go? Are they all dead too?"

A soldier suddenly shouted, and everyone around him looked at him at a loss. --/After a while, the symptoms were like an infectious disease. Two people, five people, a dozen people... More and more soldiers fell into madness, and then they began to use the weapons they carried to kill each other indiscriminately. shooting…

This five-legged spider (the main body of the vehicle is shaped like a flying saucer, with five extremely long mechanical spider leg supports around it, and can move very dexterously in the desert) quickly stopped, and it did not lose power. It's just that all the living people inside have turned into corpses.

five minutes later.

"Sir, the five-legged spider of Team 19 suddenly stopped and was unable to contact the personnel inside." The communicator on the desert float rang.

After hearing this, Botterini subconsciously replied: "Just send a few people over to check. For such small things, we will confirm them first and then report back when we have a conclusion. If there is no big deal, just handle it yourself. Don't do everything." Annoy me and occupy the command channel."

"Yes... I understand." The voice in the communicator became quieter.

Two minutes later, it sounded again: "Sir...Sir...it's not good! Six of the five-legged spiders are in trouble and have lost contact. The one from the 19th team just sent people to confirm, including the driver. They all died inside."

Botterini had a bad premonition, and he immediately said: "Go and confirm the situation of the other several aircraft." Then he switched the channel and ordered: "Everyone stops advancing and stays where they are."

Botterini looked at the endless desert in front of him and couldn't see a single person. But what happened just now seemed to indicate the existence of capable people nearby. He said to himself: "Could it be that... the other party has already joined the army."

"Yes. It's a pity that you found out too late." Cole answered him.

Botterini felt a chill down his spine for a moment, because the other party's voice was right behind him, on the same desert float.

He picked up the Holy Cross with his thick arms, turned around and swung it. But it was all in vain. The next second, Botterini felt something was wrong. He looked up and saw a man in a black uniform standing on the Holy Cross, like a bird perched on a telephone pole. Looking at himself with contempt.

"Ah!!" Botterini shouted again, like a strong thug, swinging the huge Holy Cross as fast as a bat, trying to throw Cole standing on it.

Cole jumped high when the opponent exerted his strength, and used a stretch backflip to easily jump out of a distance of more than ten meters. His movements in the air were as if he had grown a pair of invisible wings, light and fast. . The dwell time seems to be freely controllable.

Cole looked at his opponent. He said coldly: "Camo Botterini, I remember you are... the Inspector General of the Holy City, right? Haha, that's all, are you really a powerful person?" His taunting was immediately replaced by the Holy Cross's. With an angry attack, a white energy swept toward him like a huge wave in the desert. Botterini proved his strength with actions.

This blow really made Cole panic. He knew that the other party was an esper who was known for his strength, so naturally he would not confront him head-on in this regard. So he jumped up high, barely avoiding the impact of energy. But he didn't expect that in addition to the energy visible to the naked eye, the blow of the Holy Cross also brought up an invisible strong wind, which caused Cole to gradually lose his balance and reveal obvious flaws in the air.

Near Botterini, there are desert floats used by other ability users of Steel Commandment. Naturally, they will not stand idly by after discovering the situation here. Seven or eight masters above the level of knights rushed towards him one after another. Two of them were capable of attacking distant targets, while the rest started to attack Cole in the air with their muskets.

"Hmph... There must be a limit to looking down on people..." Cole snorted coldly and did something that stunned the knights. He used his body as an axis and began to spin, turning into a black miniature tornado. It changed direction in the air and began to move at high speed, completely avoiding those attacks.

But Botterini's big hand caught him three seconds later. After Cole was forcibly stopped, his face showed a look of horror: "How could..." He swallowed back his words halfway, because he After a closer look, he knew the answer. The other party just abandoned the Holy Cross and acted with bare hands, and then caught up with his speed.

"You are right, there is a limit to looking down on people." Botterini returned the original words, grabbing Cole's neck with one hand, punching with the other hand, and swung his arm towards Cole's abdomen. .

Originally, this punch could severely damage the opponent, but in this flash of lightning, a surprising scene flashed in front of Botterini's eyes. He saw countless plant seedlings growing instantly on his arm, and his muscles seemed to be soft. It was torn apart from the inside like dirt, and at the same time, what he captured in his hand was no longer Cole, but a huge caterpillar. The insect was glaring with eyes and teeth and cheeks, as if it was about to bite him.

Botterini still punched, but the hesitation and fear at that moment prevented him from delivering the expected force. When Cole was knocked out, the illusion disappeared and everything was as usual.

"Hmph... Is it a hallucination... I see." Botterini said: "Then, where is the other person with abilities? A young person who only dares to hide and use blind methods... "

Anyway, this is not the first time that Tamsun has been provoked, so he will not show up. His ability is to create frightening hallucinations. However, for people with stronger mental power, Tamsun's ability has little effect. With the mind and will of a person with powerful Botrini abilities, hallucinations can only be produced for ten times at most. seconds, and cannot be affected continuously in a short period of time. If he were an ordinary soldier, Tamsin could confuse more than a dozen people at the same time and last for five or six minutes.

Cole was hit and flew backwards, but the blow was still within the range he could withstand. After adjusting in the air, he landed on his feet. It was a desert terrain anyway, and even if his footing was unstable, he could still see it. Not coming out.

But just as he landed. Almost all the vanguard troops of Steel Discipline have been killed, and the knights on the desert floats have joined the battle, raising their guns and cannons to fight.

Cole wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Transformed into a black whirlwind again, this time he did not go up to the sky, but dug into the sand, causing the opponent to lose his target instantly.

"Concentrate! The other party has a user with the ability to cause hallucinations!" Botterini saw Cole running away. He quickly returned to his desert float and opened the communication, "High-level ability users from the empire are attacking us. Prepare to fight after hearing the order!"

Botterini once again took up the Holy Cross and stood ready. Watch the surrounding sand vigilantly. He knew in his heart that the guy who dared to attack the army with just a few people must either have abnormal brains or be very powerful. Even if he is not arrogant enough to annihilate his entire army, at least he must have the confidence to escape unscathed.

"Just because I always get involved with colleagues of that caliber, I feel like my class has been lowered." Miao Long suddenly appeared in front of Botterini like a ghost and said to himself in a complaining tone. : "What ape, bird, python, dragon... It's just a nickname that Luka gave out of spite. Monkeys and sparrows don't sound very strong."

The second Botterini saw Miao Long. Then we understood, it turned out that the real masters were here, and it was because of this guy that they dared to intercept a division's troops with just a few people.

"Sir! Get out of the way!" A knight, holding a giant halberd made of yellow sand under his feet, came behind Miao Long and waved it horizontally. It was already too late for Botterini to stop him.

Miao Long did not use any abilities. He just stood there and raised his right hand easily. Blocking it with two fingers, the knight's weapon was scattered and turned into yellow sand.

"Energy body protection... you are a ferocious level user." Botterini's face turned very ugly. He was actually cursing in his heart, how could he be so unlucky that he could encounter monsters above the ferocious level at every turn.

"Oh, with that expression on your face, it looks like you want to negotiate terms with me." Miao Long said.

Botterini thought to himself: Nonsense, if I don’t negotiate terms with you, will I force myself to do so

"The order I got is just to pursue the White Lightning. There is no conflict with your army. I can lead the army to evacuate Golden Eagle County. So far... everyone has their own injuries. I think it's better to stop here today." Botterini said it right. It was beautiful, but in fact there was no damage to the other party at all. Cole was only slightly injured, but there were probably at least five hundred people on the Iron Commandment side dead.

The knight standing behind Miao Long stood there stunned for a while after the blow with an egg against a stone. At this moment, he heard the words of the Lord Inspector, thought about it for a moment, and quietly began to retreat, staying away... lest he too Become part of the "loss".

Miao Long sneered: "And the order I got is written on the back of my uniform. These four words remind me every day that I must drive away rebellious officials and traitors like you."

This may be the worst situation. Botterini understands that today he has encountered a hard nut to crack. He is an absolute die-hard. He will not negotiate any conditions with you. He is just looking at it before fighting. What kind of opponent are you? If you are a hero and leave a whole body, if you have Botterini's reaction, it is difficult to say.

There was a clanking sound and it appeared without warning. Botterini didn't even know what was going on.

Miao Long's expression changed. He lowered his head belatedly and looked at his left chest. Just opposite his heart, there was a bullet hole in his HL uniform. The bullet penetrated his clothes, but was blocked by the ever-present protective energy. On the sand at his feet was an additional sniper warhead.

"Hmph... I can't tell you still have..." Before Miao Long could finish his words, his throat and left eye were hit twice more accurately, "You..." The word "you" hadn't been written yet. Speaking out completely, his teeth were shot again.

Miao Long's eyes widened, shocked and angry. He was really glad that he didn't continue talking. Looking at this posture, if he opened his mouth, he might be able to shoot a bullet directly into his mouth.

Miao Long thought in his mind: What is this... someone with the ability to control bullets... He couldn't hear the sound of a sniper rifle at all, indicating that the opponent was at an extremely long distance. How could there be such a gunman... Could it be to kill the heavenly guard? That guy!

At the same time, behind the Iron Discipline army, on top of a Dragon Turtle hovercraft.

A man wearing the uniform of the lowest-ranking serviceman of the Steel Command was sitting cross-legged with a very irregular shooting movement, holding a sniper rifle in the air with his hands to aim without a stand.

After firing four shots in a row, he put down the sniper rifle and took off his somewhat blurry goggles. He shouted to the people below: "People with ferocious abilities can't be hurt."

Under the "Dragon Turtle" stood two men dressed similarly to him. One is a bald black man, the other has curly hair and looks like a Jew.

Spayton shouted to the gunsmith above: "Then you'd better come down."

"Oh." The gunsmith put his gun on his back and slid down from it. He landed on the sand: "I didn't expect to meet a master here, what should I do?"

Before Spayton and the accountant could speak, a knight captain rushed over: "Hey! You three! Which team are you from? And you, who allowed you to climb up there and fire guns randomly?"

"I..." Before the gunsmith could reply, Spayton ducked behind the man. An elbow knocked him to the ground, and then he shouted in a panic: "The captain has fainted! Someone, help!"

The escort team around the Dragon Turtle was several dozen meters away from here. Someone looked here just now when the gunsmith fired the gun. However, the wind and sand were a bit strong and the situation could not be seen clearly from a distance. Now I heard someone shouting, "Guard Squad" The captain naturally had to send someone over to take a look.

A desert float came over, and the same three people got off. Although the escort team also traveled in the desert. However, there were no people with abilities. They looked at the three rather strange servicemen in front of them suspiciously, and the leader asked: "What's going on?"

Spayton continued: "The captain suddenly fainted. I don't know if he was killed by the enemy's ability user."

As soon as they heard the words "ability person", those people immediately became nervous: "Then you carry him in first and then talk about it. What are you calling?"

Spayton saw that they were close enough. He answered them with actions. He alone took down three people in two seconds. Astonish the accountants. Only the gunsmith looked at it dully and asked, "What are you doing? Are you planning to keep bringing people in until you knock them all down?"

Spayton rolled his eyes heavenward. He walked side by side with the accountant and activated the desert float. He turned back to the gunsmith who was standing there stupidly and said, "Can't you come up?"

On the other side of the army, Miao Long simply ignored Botterini and the low-level ability users around him, and cautiously moved towards the direction from which the bullets came.

This was an extremely bizarre scene. In the desert, the Iron Discipline army stayed in place. Everyone tightened their minds and watched a man wearing a black HL uniform walking through various armored vehicles, looking around. They are looking for something, but no one dares to take action against it.

Cole's reappearance broke the deadlock. The whirlwind transformed by his high-speed rotating body sprang out from the desert floating side of Botrinini's boat. This time he struck preemptively and foreshadowed revenge.

Botterini snorted coldly: "If I can catch you once, I can catch you ten more times." He hurried to meet you: "This time I will not be deceived by the illusion."

"You have been deceived." Cole's figure suddenly appeared from another direction.

Botterini was shocked: "What happened..."

The first Cole who emerged from the sand was just an illusion, but when Botterini realized it, it was already too late. A military thorn went straight into Botterini's abdomen, piercing his liver, and his blood spurted out along the blood trough.

"Zombie..." Botterini's face showed a fierce look, and he took this opportunity to clamp Cole's arm holding the thorn.

Cole struggled to push the thorn forward a few points and turned it with all his strength.

Botterini felt an indescribable severe cramping pain in his abdomen, and the rapid blood loss made him slightly dizzy. However, he was lifted up with real fire in one breath, and punched the victim. On Cole's shoulder.

The power of this punch completely shattered the bones in Cole's upper arm and shoulder. Even if he wanted to continue to hold the spur, his body would not obey his orders.

Tamson, who was hiding in the dark, knew that something was going to happen. Cole would not be able to escape into the sand again like this. If he did not save him, I am afraid that one of the four masters would lose another one today.

Tamsin was currently hiding in a five-legged spider that was full of corpses, looking at the situation over there through the glass of the cab. The condition for his ability to be activated was that he could "see" the target on which he applied his ability. Therefore, he was also the first one to sneak into the marching troops. With the support of the ability to create illusions, it was not too difficult.

Tamsun turned around and was about to open the door of the cab and rush out, but as soon as his butt left the seat, the surroundings fell into darkness.

This is an impossible situation. There is a piece of glass next to him. Even if the five-legged spider's energy is suddenly cut off, it is still daytime and he should be able to see the light coming from outside.

A flame flickered in the darkness, becoming the only source of light in Tamsin's eyes, and from that light source, a man's voice came: "Fear, it should be considered your weapon. Hahaha..." Spayton was gloomy. The laughter sounded, and just this laughter was enough to penetrate people: "The most primitive fear of human beings comes from darkness, because darkness represents all the unknown... Are you afraid of this?" (Unfinished) To be continued...)--Remember!
