Several cars galloped in the night with bumps. After leaving Windmill Town, Faro's team drove south along the coastline road and headed towards the dense forest in the direction of the big crack. In the car, Faro's face was gloomy, while Jin, who was sandwiched between two tall men in the back seat, lowered his head and remained silent all the way. Finally, Faro couldn't help calling a stop, and then yelled at Jin: "Where are you taking us? Don't tell me, those outsiders are heading towards Death Mountain?"
"Yes, sir." Jin raised his head, with a look of panic on his face, even his body was trembling, looking very frightened: "I heard from those outsiders that they seemed to have found something in the forest near Death Mountain. , they took the men from the town, mainly to dig that thing out."
"Damn, that's not a good place," Faro muttered.
The soldier in charge of driving asked softly: "Lieutenant, shall we still go?"
"Go! Why don't you go?" Faro said sharply, "I want to see what those damn outsiders are trying to dig!"
So the convoy continued on its way. Perhaps because the sky was too dark, Faro didn't see the slightest fear in Jin's eyes, but an imperceptible smile on the contrary.
Soon, the coastline road came to an end. Coming down from the highway, the condition of the road surface became very rough. Several of the cars have been modified with raised chassis and power upgrades, allowing them to ride on rough surfaces, but with bumps that feel like bones are falling apart. The people in the car didn't stop shaking for a moment, and after driving for a few kilometers, the car had to stop because they had reached the edge of Death Mountain. Going forward, there is an endless virgin forest. Faro let everyone get out of the car, then grabbed Jin and pushed him forward, saying: "Lead the way."
"No, it's already here," Kim said.
Faro was taken aback, and said, "Are you kidding me, how can there be any outsiders here, who is digging something?"
"You are right in the first part, sir, I am indeed playing tricks on you. As for the second part, you are not wrong. There is indeed digging here. It's just that it is your grave." Jin said with a smile.
"What did you say?" Faro asked in shock. He finally realized that the young man who led the way seemed too calm now, but it was too late. Faro suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen. Looking down, a sharp stone awl pierced out of the ground at some point. It ruthlessly pierced into his stomach, and then the stone cone continued to stretch upwards, pushing the blood knight lieutenant into the air!
Seeing this, the other soldiers fired one after another without the commander's order. Immediately, there was a burst of intensive gunshots at the edge of the forest, and the overwhelming bullets splashed sparks all the way on the ground and chased after Jin. As soon as the gold was lifted, the earth shook, and several three-meter-high stone walls rose from the ground in an arched shape, protecting the gold. The bullet hit the stone wall without any damage at all.
But as the anti-aircraft machine guns on the two off-road vehicles opened fire, the heavy blow immediately sent debris from several stone walls. Behind the wall, Jin was busy counting things, but where his finger was pointing was a soldier. At this time, a soldier jumped out of the personnel carrier, and he aimed a shoulder-fired missile launcher in Jin's direction. After a simple aim, before firing, I felt a pain in my chest. But a stone spear pierced from the ground and penetrated his body in an instant. At the same time, another stone gun plunged into the missile launcher in his hand, so the soldiers who hadn't died immediately saw in despair that the missile in the launcher was pierced and detonated by the stone gun.
Amidst the rumbling explosion, a ball of fire rose among the soldiers, and a dozen or so soldiers who were closer to the explosion site were directly blown away, while those farther away were also shaken by the blast, and they rushed to the place one after another. Fell forward. However, the soldiers who fell on the ground did not make any adjustments, and they were pierced into hedgehogs by the stone spears piercing from the ground.
The stone guns pierced from the ground, like their own laser positioning, plunged into the body of each soldier with incomparable accuracy. Amidst the continuous screams, nearly a hundred soldiers were killed. In the end, even a few off-road vehicles and personnel carriers were assigned a particularly thick stone cone. The stone cone pierced directly from the fuel tank at the bottom of the car, and at the same time it blasted the car into fireballs.
Watching soldiers on the ground being killed and cars blown up, Faro let out a roar. He punched the stone cone with all his strength, and an invisible shock wave swept away, and the stone cone exploded inch by inch. With Faro's roar, blood fell from the sky. His eyes were red, and he raised his fist and slammed into Jin's back. But in mid-air, a few paper-thin ice flakes suddenly flew out of the darkness, passed over Faro's body, and drew out streaks of blood.
What's more, an ice vertebra suddenly smashed out, and the sharp cone sank into Faro's body, and the icy air on it climbed up Faro's body, quickly freezing him to death. By the time the ice pick ran out of power, it had knocked Faro against the trunk of a nearby giant tree. Faro opened his mouth wide, and his whole body was covered with frost, which had been frozen into a human-shaped ice cube. With a bang, the ice cone shattered and turned into thousands of scattered crystal powders.
Along with falling was Faro's body, which fell to the ground under the tree. Faro's eyes were wide open, as if he didn't believe that he died.
Jin looked at the blood knight lieutenant's body, and Alice's voice came from the woods: "You have controlled the elements much more precisely, but you still made a basic mistake. Next time you want to kill someone, you should be more straightforward. Give the opponent a chance to fight back."
A voluptuous figure slowly walked out of the woods, and Alice was wearing her leather pants again, exuding a cold aura. Jin smiled wryly, "Got it, sister."
"So, what are you going to do next, and then pick out the other party's monitoring station? I can lead the way if necessary. I happened to find several of these things by accident during my walk recently." Alice said flatly.
Jin Xin thought, the scope of your walk is too big. But he said: "Windmill Town can't stay anymore. Although I knew that this town would not last long since Zero and they appeared, I just didn't expect the people from the council to come so fast. This time, I took care of these guys for Zero. Anyway, I have to charge him some wages, I don't have the habit of giving people free labor."
Alice smiled: "That's fine, being a geologist is not for you. But, do you know where he is?"
"I don't know." Jin said bluntly, "But I did some tricks on the old man Spit. If I find him, I should be able to find Zero."
"Let's go then."
"No, wait a minute. After killing someone, we naturally have to deal with the aftermath. We are professionals." Jin smiled, and at the same time stretched out his hand, and an invisible wave immediately spread out, covering the battlefield just now.
Then the ground began to vibrate slightly, and then the mud turned into sand and flowed slowly, swallowing the corpses and the wreckage of the vehicle one by one. By the time Jin and the others left, the ground here had turned into a belt of quicksand, burying all traces of the battlefield.
In the early morning, Zero woke up to the sound of loud voices. After covering Lia with a blanket, he walked out of the marching tent wearing a coat. There was a lot of voices outside the tent. It turned out that the water plants on the lake were basically cleaned up. Several engineers asked the workers to connect the traction cables to the hull of the spaceship with anchors. The connection points of all anchors are precisely calculated, so the requirements for the connection position are very strict. The engineers had to show up in person, shouting at the top of their voices on the walkie-talkie.
The workers are also cheering up, they all know that the work has come to an end. Is there anything better than getting paid to go home after doing this last job? So they were unwilling to make mistakes, which delayed the progress of the entire work. With the cooperation of everyone, by almost noon, each fixer appeared at the position required by the engineers.
It was almost noon, and Zero was listening to the reports of several engineers. The salvage work is expected to be completed at 3:00 p.m., followed by the spacecraft drainage and other clean-up work, which is expected to take six hours. After finishing all this, install the traction components on the spacecraft, and return tomorrow morning at the latest. Zero recorded the completion time of various tasks, and quickly formulated a defense plan for the return journey. When he carefully compared the return route and thought about some relevant details of the defense plan with his tablet brain, the walkie-talkie rang.
"Zero, you have guests. However, I'm not sure if you know them." It was Feng's voice, and he reported a name.
Zero listened and replied: "I know them, let them come over."
"Are you sure, these are two high-levels."
"It doesn't matter, if they wanted to make trouble, they would have done so."
"Okay, you are the leader, listen to you."
After a while, Zero saw Kim and Alice. His eyes first stayed on Jin, and then fell on Alice. This air-conditioned woman looked even more ashamed than before. Even if Zero didn't use the ability of genetic deconstruction, she could feel that Alice's life was coming to an end.
Jin looked at the work by the big lake, whistled and said: "I haven't seen you for a while, you have become a big boss, the world is always surprising, isn't it?"
"That's true. I have heard old Cha Li mention you, geologist Jin." Ling smiled and said, "Come talk in the tent, you are not just here to catch up with me, are you?"
Jin nodded, and Alice behind said, "Let's talk, I'll walk around."
Feng who brought them over looked at Zero and gave him a questioning wink. Zero shook his head, motioning him not to look at Alice. Then he and Jin got into the tent, and Jin said straight to the point: "I helped you solve some troubles. I think you should pay me for this, right?"
Ling smiled and said, "It depends on the size of the trouble."
"A blood cavalry lieutenant, plus a hundred soldiers." Jin shrugged.
"It doesn't look too young, so how much do you want?" Ling Xiao asked, he believed that what Jin wanted was by no means as simple as money.
Jin sighed and said, "My sister, you know that. I want to ask, is there any way you can save her!"
