Old Brant once imagined that when he was a hundred years later, the foundation of the Parkland chaebol might be lost in the hands of profligate descendants, might be annexed by the Dark Council, or would naturally disappear on the stage of history. But he never thought that a mercenary in the wilderness would shake the foundation of the family.
Throughout the time that this was happening, there were actually many opportunities for the Parkland Chaebol to get rid of the mercenary completely. After careful analysis of the whole matter, the old Brant concluded that the reason for Parkland's failure was that he underestimated Zero, who was born in the wilderness.
"Arrogance is indeed the greatest original sin." Old Brant once sighed like this, but everything was useless.
If he hadn't considered the reputation of the Parkland chaebol, at the beginning of Zero North, the old Brant could use overwhelming force to nip the danger in the bud. It was because of this concern that Old Brant lost his favorite grandson. After Sauron's death, the Dark Parliament sent people with high-level abilities to hunt him down, in order to restore the lost dignity of the Council.
When he heard the news, Old Brant had no doubt that Zero was dead. But even if the Ninth Knight came out, it still fell short in the end. No one expected that the Hall of Valor, which had always been an enemy of the Dark Council, would save Zero at this time. After that, the old Brant thought that he had no chance to avenge Sauron, but at this time, the dark merchant sent a precious message.
In order to complete the graduation assessment of Asgard's new barracks, Zero needs to appear somewhere outside the wilderness. For old Brandt, this is the biggest and last chance. So he sent out the three most powerful ability users in the Parkland chaebol without hesitation. No matter from which angle you look at it, Zero has no chance of surviving against an ability user whose average level is at the seventh level.
But the result was the opposite. Until now, the old Brant had not received any news from those three people.
In the bedroom, old Brant sighed softly. The old man's cloudy eyes looked at the flames in the fireplace, which had gradually dimmed, just like the situation the family encountered at the moment. With Sauron's death, successive operations failed, and the reputation of the Parklan chaebol in the wilderness has plummeted. As of today, among the subsidiaries controlled by the Parkland chaebol, five companies have announced their withdrawal from the jurisdiction of Parkland. In response, the Parkland chaebol did not make any response.
If it was in the past, Old Brant would naturally mobilize the family's army to severely teach these self-righteous guys. But now the Parkland chaebol is not as good as before. Sauron's death and the loss of the main combat power make Parkland look like a fat man who is strong outside but does not have the strength to do these unnecessary things. For this reason, the old Brant could only reduce the family business, and at the same time recruited a dozen or so low-level ability users to serve as the scene.
Under this kind of policy, the family may survive for ten or twenty years after the death of Old Brant, but it will eventually die out. This is an unavoidable problem.
It was late at night, and old Brant left the rocking chair and went to his big bed. The luxurious big bed used to be, but now old Brant could only feel an infinite emptiness. He took off his fur and lay down to bed, but it felt like he was lying in a coffin. Close your eyes and tomorrow will never come.
Of course tomorrow will come.
After old Brant fell asleep, the hour hand on the wall quietly pointed to four o'clock, ushering in the darkest hour of the day.
Murphys yawned and fell asleep leaning against the cold wall. He is the lowest-level soldier in the Parkland chaebol, and his daily job is to stand guard and patrol. It can be said that this job is extremely boring, but the pay is enough for the Murphys family to live a basic life of food and clothing. In the turbulent age, this amount of remuneration is enough for an ordinary person to work hard for it, not to mention that Murphys' work is hard and boring, but rarely dangerous things happen.
After all, this is the headquarters of the Parkland chaebol. Although the chaebol's momentum is not as strong as before, Murphys believes that no one will be so courageous as to come here. If there are no accidents, then there will be no mistakes in what Murphys envisioned. The problem is, times of turmoil are never short of surprises.
The territory of the Parkland chaebol was surrounded by thick metal walls. Except for one entrance facing the road, the other places were surrounded by walls as high as 20 meters. This height provides enough vision for the soldiers in the sentry towers, and the spotlight posts working at night will illuminate the environment within 500 meters in front of each sentry tower as if it were daylight, allowing soldiers on duty like Murphys to see Clearly.
Although very few, blind spots between the sweeping beams of light still exist. Coupled with the time when the sky is about to light up, it is the most tiring time for a person. Soldiers like Murphys were no exception, so while he was yawning, a vigorous figure quickly moved in the blind spot of the beam of light. When Murphys was rubbing his red eyes, the figure had already stuck to the edge of the wall, hiding in a corner where the beam of light couldn't reach.
After installing a circular metal device on his palms and knees, the Nightcrawler swam up from the vertical wall towards the sentry tower like a gecko. When he came to the edge of the sentry tower, he reached out and knocked on the wall, making a light sound.
Murphys was alarmed by the noise, and he hurried forward to check. The moment he poked his head out from the edge of the sentry tower, Murphys saw the nightcrawler. Before he had time to warn, the other party's hand had already covered his mouth, and then there was a sudden cold feeling in his throat.
When Murphy's consciousness fell into infinite darkness, he saw a long knife. That's it, piercing through his throat. He only felt that his body suddenly became very light, and then he felt nothing.
Nightcrawler withdrew his long knife and climbed into the sentry tower in two or three strokes. He carefully pulled Murphys' body to the corner, and then entered a series of commands on the control platform of the spotlight, so that the spotlight continued to sweep, but ignored a certain direction.
So a moment later, three other figures climbed in from the sentry tower. In the afterglow of the light, the profile faces of a few people were clearly illuminated. Zero made a gesture, and several people quickly left the sentry tower and quietly entered Parkland's territory along the stairs.
At this time, the darkness before dawn was quiet and quiet, and no one knew that a life had been thrown into the embrace of death. It was already ten minutes later when other soldiers found Murphy's body. So at 4:35, the ear-piercing siren sounded over the Parkland Territory, shattering the dreams of countless people!
Salton suddenly opened his eyes on the bed, and bounced up, his explosive body like a cheetah fell to the ground lightly without making a sound. Although he is a low-level ability user, Salton has also strengthened the strength of the fifth level, and the defense and agility of the fourth level. Among the ability users recruited by the old Brant, he was the strongest one.
Indeed, with two fourth-level abilities and one fifth-level ability, he is already a nightmare in the eyes of ordinary people. And Sarton has no doubts about this. After being appointed by the old Brant as the leader of all ability users, he has indeed proved to those who dare to question his ability that he is their nightmare. But Salton didn't know that tonight would be his nightmare!
"Get up, get ready to meet the enemy!" He rushed out of his bedroom and roared in the long corridor. Salton had already put on his tactical uniform, and at the same time his adjutant rushed over with a tactical board.
A plan view of the entire Parkland Territory was displayed on the tactical board, with three red light spots penetrating in different directions. Wherever the light spot passed, a destroyed skull sign immediately appeared on the functional building behind.
The adjutant said hastily: "Sir, we found intruders. They invaded from the No. 4 sentry tower, penetrated in the direction of the food processing area, the arsenal, and the power station, and destroyed them along the way. Now, our people have divided into groups Intercept, but these three are all capable, and ordinary soldiers probably won't be able to do anything to them."
While the adjutant was speaking, a dozen or so capable users had already come out of their dormitories, surrounding Sarton and waiting for him to issue an order.
Salton quickly divided the capable users into three groups and asked them to annihilate the invaders as quickly as possible. He himself wanted to choose the direction of an intruder to intercept, but Salton thought about it, but asked the adjutant to call in an elite team to guard himself in front of the Tulip Building. That is the center of the Parkland Territory, and other places in the Territory can be destroyed, except there!
Gunshots sounded from every corner of the Parkland territory, and flames jumped and exploded almost every minute and every second. In the years since the Parkland Territory was established, it has never suffered such blatant attacks and destruction. Looking at the entire territory, the most obvious fire is the food processing area in the southwest.
Squads of fully armed soldiers rushed towards the food processing area like a wave, and several off-road vehicles with high-speed heavy artillery mounted over the infantry at high speed, and quickly intercepted the place where the flames were most obvious.
The two machine guns spewed out tongues of flames in Mapei's hands, and the pouring bullets shot several soldiers who rushed from the corner of the street into a sieve. When the soldiers fell, the guns misfired, and more soldiers rushed out. Without hesitation, Mapei threw away the machine gun and at the same time rolled and hid under the truck next to him. Then a bullet fell on his original position and swept towards his hiding place.
Mapei continued to roll, but when he rolled out from under the car, he had two more machine guns in his hands. Mapei's counterattack was fast and accurate. The barrage of machine guns covered the position of this group of soldiers, and a dozen more lives were harvested in an instant. The blacks bounced off the ground and rushed up with a roar. Amid the roar of machine guns, five more soldiers were shot and fell to the ground.
When Mapei came to the corner, all the soldiers in this squad had been wiped out by him. And on the road to Mapei, there are hundreds of dead soldiers lying there, and buildings that have been burning in flames!
At this time, the sharp sound of the car tires rubbing violently against the ground reached Mapei's ears. Looking up, I saw that at the end of the branch road on the right of Mapei, several off-road vehicles almost slid sideways into this street.
Parkland's follow-up troops arrived, but instead of panicking, Mapei laughed. Instead of retreating, he opened fire with both hand guns again. As he headed toward the convoy, Mapei blew the tire of the car in front. The car immediately skidded and rolled over because of its high speed, and finally hit a street light.
But the off-road vehicle behind had already opened fire, and the four rapid-fire heavy cannons blasted out a clearly visible light belt of firepower and landed on Mapei's position. Immediately, the ground was blasted to pieces, and as the heavy artillery fired continuously, the dust and smoke from the impact of the bullets rolled more and more and rose higher and higher. Until the heavy artillery stopped firing, thick smoke had covered the entire street.
The soldiers in the car breathed a sigh of relief, no one could survive under such intense firepower, not even a person with abilities. However, a dull roar suddenly sounded in the thick smoke. As the ground shook slightly, a huge shadow appeared in the thick smoke, and then a giant beast rushed out of the smoke. The eyes of the rhinoceros wearing armor were red, and it spewed out streaks of white hot air from its nostrils, and rushed over in the blink of an eye.
When the shooter in the car reacted, the armored rhino was already a hundred meters away from them.
The heavy artillery fired again, only this time the sound of the cannon was very brief. The armored rhinoceros transformed by Mapei could withstand the attack for less than 5 seconds, and it had already rushed into the car formation. The off-road vehicles were thrown into the air one after another, the armored rhinoceros trampled again, the car was torn apart, and the soldiers who had no time to escape were directly trampled into meatloaf by the giant beast together with the car.
When Parkland's infantry came into sight of the rhino, the giant roared and charged up again. Suddenly, gunshots and screams rang out.
Compared with Mapei's too "lively" style of play, the battlefield in the power station area is undoubtedly quiet. Feng was retracting his Tang Dao, and there were nearly a hundred soldiers' corpses lying at his feet. Among them, there are several corpses with body temperature. Those were a few capable users. They had just arrived at the scene, but under Feng's impenetrable continuous attacks, they bid farewell to this world very quickly.
Be it the ability user or the soldier, Feng only left a wound on them. It's just that when the wound appears on the throat, it is fatal.
After quietly killing the intruders, the area where Feng was located was as quiet as a ghost land. But he himself hummed a ditty, and then walked to the location specified in the plan. If you look at it from the plan, the end of Maple's road ahead is the Tulip Building in the central square.
He walked a hundred meters away, and heard a muffled sound from afar in the east. Feng looked up, and the force coming from that direction made his eyes slightly half-closed. But this did not prevent him from seeing clearly a 100-meter cloud of dust rising into the sky. The dust was like a sword, so sharp that it made Feng's skin feel slightly prickly.
"Another rough guy." Feng sighed.
The rough guy refers to Su.
Su looked indifferently at the corpses of these soldiers lying at their feet, tower shields made of fine steel fell beside them. Undoubtedly, the target of the tower shield defense is pixels, who are good at destroying abilities. The Parkland Army's ability to adapt is commendable, but it's a pity that they underestimated Su's ability. The berserker warrior is a profession that has given up defense and exists with the ultimate goal of destructive power. Even if it is only a newly promoted Su, the slashing of the alloy epee is no longer what these ordinary steel shields can defend.
Looking fifty meters ahead, Parkland's soldiers formed a shield formation again, followed by twenty machine guns protruding from the gap in the shield formation. The next moment, machine gun fire illuminated the dark street.
The epee was raised obliquely, Su put his other hand on the other end of the sword tip, and followed the whole person to run towards the shield formation. The epee stood in front of her, blocking most of the attacks for Su. When they crossed the distance of 30 meters, Su suddenly jumped away, causing the soldiers' attack to land in the air.
In mid-air, Su took a deep breath, and with both hands holding the epee, he slashed down in a straight line!
On the slashing track of the epee, a soldier had no time to escape, and Su violently cut him in half with his shield. However, Su's attack didn't stop there, when the tip of the sword touched the ground. The cement-paved ground first swelled, and then a circle of waves with a range of 100 meters spread out around Su as the center. This circle of waves covered the shield array, and the soldiers were shaken by the waves first, and then the power from the ground erupted, sending countless broken stones into the sky. Each of these gravels had an impact force no less than that of a bullet, and the soldiers who formed the shield formation were immediately pierced through their bodies by these gravels, turning into broken corpses one after another.
Looking at the cleaned battlefield, Su exhaled. But the next moment, she seemed to feel something. The epee was raised, and with the twist of Su's waist, it made a sharp piercing sound and slashed across the space behind, immediately smashing a blue wind blade into pieces.
"After the appetizers are served, are you finally willing to have the main meal?" Su asked softly, pointing the epee obliquely at the ground, silently watching a man with blue wind lines wrapped around his hands behind him.
And at the next moment, Parkland's ability users came out one after another from the roof of the factory on Su's left, on the roof of a rollover chariot behind him, and from the gate of a tall building on his right. The four of them surrounded Su in the middle, but looking at this oriental girl with a hot figure, the four of them didn't have the slightest sense of superiority in number.
Salton was irritable.
It had been more than half an hour since the ability users attacked, but there was no success report. Fighting in three directions, the two areas of food processing and arsenal are still going on. Judging from the current situation, the battle in the food processing area is the most intense. Salton already knew that the intruders in that area were ability users of the mutant system, and they were now handing over ordinary soldiers and three ability users in Parkland. However, the situation in the arsenal is not optimistic. The 150 ordinary soldiers sent to intercept in that direction were all killed. Currently, they can only rely on four capable people to make achievements.
But what really worried Salton was the battle in the power station area, and there was no news about the battle in that area. Salton's adjutant had sent out three waves of scouts one after another, but none of them returned. So that direction was like a huge shadow in Salton's mind.
Strong unease filled his heart, and suddenly, Salton felt a ray of cold murderous intent coming towards him. Before he could think about it, he immediately activated the power of the fourth-level defense, and crossed his hands to protect his chest and head. As soon as he made this defensive action, Salton's whole body shook violently, and at the same time, he felt a heart-rending pain from his wrist.
The soldiers around Sulton made a point, and a burst of fire suddenly shot out from the darkness at the edge of the square, hitting Sulton's wrist, and a large spray of blood immediately burst out. After a while, the sound of a sniper rifle sounded. Judging by the strength of the sound, Salter concluded that the sniper was shooting at least 1,500 meters away.
At the same time, he also knew that there were more than three intruders, and there was a fourth person!
(Today is the end, I wish everyone a happy end. I hope the sun will rise as usual tomorrow, I don’t want to stop wow~~)
