Colt pointed his gun at the man who had just come out of the exit of the tunnel. In the infrared vision, Zero could clearly see that the man's hands had turned into twisting thorns and vines. They protrude from the sleeves of the man's windbreaker, like a dozen poisonous snakes coiling together, and like the tentacles of an octopus, ready to explode and hurt people at any time.
When the man walked out of the passage, Feng, Su and Mapei pointed their guns at him. Gunabel didn't pay attention to the machine guns of Feng and Su at all. But Mapei's flamethrower made him secretly pay attention. As a plant-type mutant ability user, Gunabel, like most plants, is also afraid of flames and high temperatures, which is one of his few weaknesses. It's just that he didn't show it on his face, and he didn't even stay on Mapei's injector for a second, making it impossible for people to know his thoughts.
Even though Zero pointed at him with Colt, he didn't feel that he was halfway to victory. In his eyes, Gunabel was changing angles at any time, and his figure swayed around slightly, and the swaying amplitude was beyond the reach of normal vision. Zero also divides the picture that appears in one second into dozens of frames, and only then finds subtle differences from it. If it hadn't reached the fifth level now, Zero's brain would not be able to perform such subtle calculations.
Now, compared to when he killed the superhuman Hans near the Helsen Bridge, Zero Brain's data processing ability has improved by several levels. Therefore, it is only now possible to draw such conclusions by observing Gunabel.
Those subtle angle changes indicate that Gunabel is constantly moving subtly. Even if Zero shoots immediately, it may not be able to kill him. At least, it cannot cause fatal injuries!
"Who are you?" Zero asked, his voice calm and indifferent, without any emotional fluctuations.
Gunabel showed a teasing smile and said, "Is it necessary for a dying person to know my identity? You just need to understand that I'm here to kill you."
Zero's brain was running at high speed, and nearly half of the energy in his body was devoted to this calculation. In a short moment that even Setsuna couldn't describe, he already had the answer.
Judging from Gunabel's clothes, he is not from Asgard. Of course, he can change clothes to conceal his identity. But what is going on now is Doomhammer's recruit graduation assessment. As the most elite legion in Asgard, Zero does not believe that someone can casually enter the assessment site and kill people. The murderous intent exuded by the white man when he launched the surprise attack just now showed that he really wanted to kill Zero. Without this murderous intent, Zero would not have been able to discover it.
And the supernatural beings in Asgard cannot and dare not kill people so openly. Even if he could kill all the people present, but through the traces left at the scene, he would definitely be discovered afterwards. After all, every organization or city has strict management over supernatural beings, especially in Asgard. All supernatural beings are recorded, except for man-made gods like Feng, who can hide their true power.
Therefore, it is easy to find out the identity of the murderer as long as the investigation is done afterwards and the data is compared.
Under the leadership of the Hall of Valor, Asgard has formed a rule that is not a rule. That is, Asgard warriors can die on the battlefield, but not in conspiracy!
And excluding Asgard, it is almost certain that this man came from other places. At present, only the Dark Council and the Parkland Plutocrats are interested in zero killings. But it is impossible for the Dark Parliament to do this for a zero, risking breaking the peace and going to war with the Hall of Valor. Well, all that's left may be...
"Are you sent by Parkland?" Zero Jue asked.
Gunabel's smile was suppressed, and he showed a surprised expression, confirming Zero's guess from the side. But this man didn't intend to hide it, but admitted generously: "You are smarter than I expected. Damn, old Brant paid a lot of money to kill you kid. But I can understand the old man's thoughts, After all, his favorite child, who is also the heir of the family, died at your hands."
"So, are you ready to die?"
Gunabel let out a loud laugh, leaned forward slightly, and wanted to throw himself out. But at this moment, he suddenly felt sharp pain between his brows, like being pierced by a steel nail. He knew it was the feeling of being locked in by Zero, and it meant that Zero was about to pull the trigger. But Gunagul was preparing, and his body suddenly flashed to the left. But he was too late to be proud, because the zero-black muzzle was already waiting for him.
Zero sent out a shooting idea, which really caused Gunabel to evade laterally. But the real killer was at this moment Gunabel himself appeared on the trajectory he had preset early in the morning as if he had slammed into the door, so Zero would not be polite.
The black muzzle flashed.
Gunabel had no time to make another evasive action, so he could only cross his hands across his chest. The constantly twitching vines were twisted together, forming two tapered strange thorns. Just as he was taking protective action, his whole body was shaken violently, and then he was pushed into the air by the powerful kinetic energy of the sniper bullet, and he was thrown towards the back of the crowd.
When the sniper sounded, Zero turned and ran.
On the other side, Gunabel, who fell to the ground, bounced up in a strange posture. Nine of the ten alienated vines on the left hand were broken, and the broken vines were still emitting faint smoke due to the hot temperature formed by the bullet's adjusted movement. Gunabel's eyes locked on Zero's back, he cursed, his hands and feet disintegrated and split into thorns and vines.
These things stab in all directions quickly, and once they hit a wall or something else, the thorns on the surface will ruthlessly penetrate into the object. After catching these things, the vines swung in the opposite direction, immediately pushing Gunabel to drift towards zero. In this way, Gunabel continued to cycle through this set of movements, making him chase Zero like a big spider and disappear into the darkness out of everyone's sight.
Watching Ling leave, Su wanted to catch up, but was held back by Feng.
Feng's voice in the communication channel was very solemn: "Stop chasing, don't you understand why the captain did this? He wants to distract that guy so that we can move on. What we have to do now is to help Captain completed the task!"
After speaking, Feng let go of her hand. The man turned around silently, then walked in the opposite direction of Zero. Mapei also followed behind him without saying a word, followed by Eva and other living corpses. After taking a deep look in the direction of Ling's departure, Su could only leave behind the team.
Just as Feng thought, Zero just didn't want Gunabel to slow down the progress of the whole team. What's more, Gunabel came for him alone, so in this duel, Zero decided to face it alone.
He ran fast, but Gunabel was not slow either, and kept pressing on behind Zero.
Zero suddenly slammed to the left while running, and he smashed open an alloy door. The impact was so powerful that the entire alloy door slammed into the room with the door frame. They jumped heavily to the ground, knocking rows of filing cabinets to the ground as they sparked. It looked like this was an archive room, but Zero didn't care much, and ran towards the security door ahead.
With a snap, a thick vine came in from the door, and buckled it upside down on the edge of the door. Then more vines stretched into the archive room and were firmly fixed to the walls, ceiling and other places. The vines suddenly collapsed, bringing Gunabel into the room. At this time, Zero ran to the security door.
"You can't run!" Gunabel yelled, and at the same time a thick vine on his body passed towards zero like a poisonous snake.
Ling suddenly fell down, and the whole person slipped to the ground with the force of the forward rush, and slid towards the safety door. At the same time, Zero turned his body and continued to castrate, but the sniper rifle bloomed a spark in the darkness.
The bullet fired from Colt rotated at a high speed, bringing up a cloud of red light, passing Gunabel in an instant. This time, Gunabel's vines were not kinked together. The sniper bullets easily tore through more than a dozen thick vines, causing Gunabel to lose his balance, and his whole body fell to the ground. But the next moment, new plant tissue formed from the broken thick vine. They replace the parts torn off by the bullets, forming new vines.
The newly formed vines quickly supported Gunabel, allowing him to continue chasing Zero. And the result of Zero One shot was just to stop Gunabel for less than two seconds.
Zero has slid out of the security door and came to an office. The office was dilapidated, and the light tubes and wires from the ceiling were hanging down to the ground. The desks and chairs in the office were even more rickety, as if they were impacted by something, and they all fell to the corner on the west side of the office. On the ground, computer parts are scattered, and the screen of the mainframe can be seen everywhere.
Stopping suddenly, Zero ran to the west side of the office and hid behind an overturned desk. As soon as he hid his body, Gunabel chased him in. Gunabel looked towards the door of the office, only to see that the door was closed tightly. He smiled a little because he knew Zero was still hiding in the office.
Gunabel doesn't have the infrared vision in Zero's tactical helmet, but his almost ubiquitous thick vine can walk around, constructing a spatial model in Gunabel's brain of the things it touches. At the same time, the thorns on Gunabel's vines are not only sharp, but also sensitive, able to feel the vibration of the air. Therefore, even in the dark, no living thing can escape Gunabel's perception.
In Gunabel's mind, as the vines wandered, a three-dimensional model of a messy office was quickly constructed. Judging from the scene in the model, Zero's most likely hiding place is naturally the table and chairs on the west wall. So he walked over, at this moment, the thorns on the vine felt the vibration of the air. The data was fed back to Gunabel's brain, so in the model in his mind, there was another picture of a figure jumping out of the table and chairs!
Gunabel gave a strange laugh, and one of the vines instantly swept towards the figure in the three-dimensional model. The thorns exposed in the air immediately formed countless data through the vibration of the airflow, and then fed back to Gunabel's mind. So Gunabel "saw" that the figure was easily broken into two by Teng Man. Although he succeeded in one blow, Gunabel felt that something was wrong.
The next moment, his whole body shook violently, and there was a burning sensation in his chest. Only then did he realize that what he hit just now was not zero at all, but something else!
At this moment, the loud sound of the sniper rifle echoed in the office.
Zero emerged from cover, where he had just thrown the body of a base office operative. While attracting Gunabel's attack, Zero also seized the opportunity to hit the killer's heart with one shot. But Gunabel did not fall because of this. In Zero's sight, he first looked at his chest in astonishment, and then showed a strange smile.
"It's so dangerous, if it's someone else, this shot will kill them, but unfortunately your opponent is me. I am immortal!" Gunabel screamed strangely, while shaking violently all over his body. The next moment, dozens of thick vines pierced towards Zero like javelins.
"In this world, there is nothing that can't be killed!" Zero replied, kicking with both feet at the same time, setting up tables and chairs to face the stabbing vines.
The tables and chairs were like a piece of paste, easily pierced by vines. But after all, these things are not invisible, so the piercing speed of the thorns and vines will inevitably slow down. And taking advantage of such a slow time, zero body, rolling, bouncing, and sprinting.
Several movements were performed in a row without any pause, the speed was so fast that Gunabel had no time to catch Zero's movements, and Zero had already broken through the door.
Gunabel yelled, turned around and chased after him. So in the passage along the way, there were constant flashes of fire and gunshots.
A Nemesis wandered near the main passage of the base at the intersection, and on both sides of the Nemesis were blood-stained metal walls. There are countless lines on the wall, which are the electronic transistor circuits hidden in the wall, but due to some reasons, they are all exposed now. And under the walls on both sides, there are countless insect corpses. Most of these corpses are human face moths, and a half-worm man will appear occasionally.
Bugs, like Butchers, use simple weapons of their own making. But unlike the cold weapons favored by butchers, half-insects use energy weapons that can be connected to the body to use life energy to injure the enemy. These weapons have different shapes, and their lethality is directly related to the strength of the insect's biological energy. But even the tiniest of weapons is enough to drive a bloody hole through Furies.
These corpses are all the masterpieces of this Nemesis, but after killing so many bugs, the Nemesis is also hanged. A small half of its head was cut off by something, but its brain was not damaged. But looking inside from the wound, one could see the grey-white brain of the goddess of revenge wriggling. And the body of this big worm is even more blood-stained. It has its own, but more of them are enemies.
The enemies are the human-faced moths and half-worms who suddenly surged up from the fifth-floor base. Originally, Nemesis and these neighbors were not at odds with each other. Occasionally, some human-faced moths would come out of the lower bases, but after all, the number was very small, and the lazy nerves of the Nemesis Goddess simply didn't have the extra enthusiasm to let them attack a few human-faced moths. But this time is different. Since three days ago, a large number of human face moths have swarmed up to the fourth-floor base.
This aroused the anger of Nemesis, although because of the colder weather, this fat worm was unwilling to move his body easily. But this does not mean that Nemesis is broad-minded, no matter what kind of bug, its regionality is extremely strong. The fourth-floor base has been tacitly regarded as the territory of Nemesis, and now these bold neighbors have rushed in openly, and the number is so large that they tend to occupy the fourth-floor base.
The wrath of the Nemesis was successfully ignited by the swarm of human-faced moths, and the warriors who had been in hibernation were awakened and joined the ranks of counterattack. In this way, the war between Nemesis and Man-faced Moth has lasted for three days and three nights. Countless man-faced moths died, and about 300 of the elite half-worms also fell, but Nemesis also suffered heavy losses.
At least fifty Furies fell into a deep sleep forever. For a group of Furies with less than two hundred mature individuals, the death of fifty warriors was already a heavy loss.
Anger burned the nerves of the Nemesis, and the big bug let out a dull roar. The roar echoed in the passage and spread steadily.
The skin on Furies' body wrinkled from time to time, which was its unique ability. The worms, whose eyes have degenerated for a long time underground, generate a circular fluctuation position with a diameter of about 500 meters around the Nemesis Goddess through the shock and fluctuation generated by the skin folds. When the shockwave encounters an obstacle, it feeds data back to the bug's brain, allowing it to "see" anything in the dark.
At this time, in the undulating position of the Nemesis, the trajectory of a human face moth suddenly appeared. Nemesis immediately enters the battle state, it shrinks its body, and the huge creatures in the body can be transmitted to the biological bombs on the surface of the body through special and pipelines. The sarcoma-like bio-bomb emits a faint blue flame from the inside. This beautiful but dangerous fluorescence is a sign that the Nemesis is attacking!
The same number of long streams of hot air sprayed out from under the six nostril-like flesh holes of the goddess of nemesis. Suddenly, the surface of the bug's skin piled up sharply, as if a wave of flesh was set off. And with the formation of the meat wave, biological bombs were thrown by Nemesis one by one, and thrown in the direction where the human face moth appeared in the wave position.
When the first biological bomb exploded, a blue electric fire shone within hundreds of meters. I saw thousands of human face moths densely packed in front of the main passage. When the flames of the bio-bomb appeared, the human face moths behind knew that their whereabouts had been exposed, so they just flew up, carrying the wind mixed with neurotoxins, and rushed towards the goddess of nemesis.
As a result, more biological bombs greeted them.
Amidst the constant explosions, faint blue flame flowers bloomed in the dark base. The blooming of each blue flame flower represents the fall of hundreds of human face moths. Life withered in the blazing flames, but death did not stop the moths from attacking, on the contrary, they became more and more crazy!
The skin on the Nemesis bulges with each biobomb thrown. The fat on its body surface changes rapidly under the command of the brain, and the muscle tissue and nerve vessels will be separated from the main body, thus forming an independent individual like a sarcoma. But this independent body will leave a fine wall of flesh connecting the body of the bug. When Nemesis needs it, the creatures in the bug's body can be quickly injected into the sarcoid through this blood wall, forming a delayed explosion biological bomb!
It was in such a way that the goddess of nemesis was like an arsenal, continuously producing biological bombs and blooming flowers of death in the base.
