Zero stopped.
He chased for most of the night, and finally let him discover the whereabouts of the Dark Council.
There are traces of armored vehicles on the damaged road. The traces of the car turned a corner not far away, drove off the road, and drove towards an abandoned city ahead. He would rather sit in a not-so-practical car than stay in a relatively safe armored vehicle, which shows that the blond young man Zero saw was a self-identified person. Maybe he was a nobleman, and a person like this would never travel overnight if he didn't have to.
This has been confirmed from the car marks, and if the other party stops or rests, it will give Zero a chance to find and rescue Leah.
The Dark Council may be powerful, but snipers in the dark are even more terrifying. The bullet in the darkness will always reveal its ferocious fangs at critical moments. Zero believes that after tonight, people in the Dark Council will re-recognize the profession of sniper.
He started the locomotive and drove towards the ruins under the night along the tracks.
The unique blue-white flame of high-efficiency solid combustion illuminates Leah's eyes. In front of her eyes, the field marching stove that integrates the top technologies in the fields of electronics, metallurgy and machinery shows a level beyond the common technology of this era. technological means. A small alloy pot was put on the stove, followed by injection of grade 4 drinking water, and finally slices of refrigerated fresh beef and prepared ingredients were poured into the pot. Three minutes later, the beef stew that could only be eaten in the old days appeared in Leah's eyes.
Whether it's the small and convenient camping stove, or the level 4 drinking water that doesn't contain any radiation substances, or the horribly fresh beef slices, these are things that Leah doesn't want to imagine at ordinary times. But now, a bowl of delicious beef painting soup was brought to her. As long as she stretched out her hand, she could eat the delicious food that she would never forget.
But compared to these, Leah was more curious about who they were
After being captured by them, Leah knew that the leader of these people was the young man with short blond hair. This person is quite handsome, just like a young nobleman in the old days. However, the dark red robe on the man made Lia feel uncomfortable. Sitting with him, Lia always smelled a bloody smell so strong that it made people vomit wafting in the car.
Leah had never seen such a well-equipped team. Even ordinary soldiers were equipped with new-age firearms. These firearms are all light and practical. The streamlined gun body is made of special materials. It is not a common metal, but more like a composite material on an armored vehicle.
As for the young man who was the leader, Leah couldn't see any weapons on him, not even a dagger. But he gave Leah the feeling that he was far more dangerous than others. It was as if the young man himself was a mobile weapon warehouse.
Seeing Lia staring at a bowl of beef soup in a daze not far away, Sauron frowned.
Leah is not like other women in the wilderness at all. Except for the panic when she was caught in the car, Leah showed a calmness that did not match her age. She even asked Sauron face-to-face why he wanted to capture her.
Of course Sauron would not answer. In his opinion, it was a waste of his life to speak even a word to the captive.
The young noble knew that the girl had a protector, a mercenary named "Zero", and he even had a mercenary license granted by his family. Regarding this mercenary, Sauron had read his information. Undoubtedly, Sauron was proud and confident, but that didn't mean he would be arrogant. Knowing all the information of opponents who might threaten him, this is the teaching Sauron got when he became a blood knight.
Through the information that Sauron could obtain, he knew Zero's record. In addition to independently killing a butcher in Silvertree City two years ago, not long ago, Zero killed a large number of rock spiders in Remut, including a stalker and a spider queen. These zeros are not reported, so they do not exist in the smart chip of the license. Sauron made an inference based on the information provided by Theon, as well as the Queen's eyeballs that suddenly appeared in the Remut black market, after investigation and integration.
Just by killing the Spider Queen, her record is enough to raise her license to a higher rank. At least in Sauron's opinion, his performance since his debut with zero is enough to obtain the license qualification of a third-tier mercenary.
After analyzing Zero's personality by the information experts in the team, the probability that Zero will catch up to rescue Leah is about 90%. This means that Sauron will face an excellent sniper.
The battle near the Hessen Bridge did not escape Sauron's attention, and his tracking experts found Raff's body. Through the judgment of the scene, Sauron knew that Zero used two bullets with the same bullet point to break through Raff's elemental domain, and killed this third-level elemental domain ability user.
The tracking experts assessed Zero as being at least a third-level sniper specialization, even though Zero's records did not have such an ability.
And in him, I am afraid that there are more secrets that have not been discovered. This made Sauron very interested in him, and he also looked forward to Zero being able to catch up. If possible, Sauron would like to absorb him as his own fighter. A Tier 3 sniper expert will raise the strength of Sauron's team to a higher level.
As for how to persuade Zero, it is not within the scope of Sauron's consideration. In his opinion, as long as Zero agrees to his request. He can also have a woman who is a hundred times more beautiful than Leah at will, and Sauron can even give Zero a superior living environment. In the turbulent age, these two reasons are enough to turn a stubborn person into an obedient dog.
It's a pity that Sauron doesn't know, Zero doesn't want to be anyone's lackey.
As for Leah, the team's biochemical experts have already given a positive answer. Leah's body really carried the blood of the disorderly ones. And now, the cells of the Discord are invading and transforming the girl's genes. This is much more valuable than a mere blood sample from a disorderly person. When Sauron reported this information to the Blood Cavalry headquarters, the order he received was to bring Leah back alive.
Leah, a living specimen, will help the Dark Council to conduct more in-depth research on the disorderly ones.
It was late at night, and although Sauron didn't feel sleepy, his precise work and rest habits made him sneak into his own marching tent. However, just as he lay down, Sauron suddenly tensed up, which was a dangerous signal.
The next moment, the screams of a follower sounded, followed by the sound of sniper rifles echoing in the empty ruins.
Sauron rushed out of the tent, and after determining the position of the sniper, he ran wildly at a speed no lower than a second-level agility enhancement.
The follower was killed in front of his own order, which undoubtedly slapped Sauron in the face. Regardless of whether Zero is willing to join his team in the end, Sauron decided to teach the sniper an unforgettable lesson before him.
Under the dark night, the game of chasing between the hunter and the prey begins quietly. But in the end who is the hunter and who is the prey, only a genius knows.
