The sudden pinprick sensation on the skin made Zero immediately bounce off the floor. The double guns placed under the pillow were already in his hands, ready to shoot at any time.
But it was quiet in the hotel room. Moni and Lala slept together in bed, breathing evenly. Outside the window, faint applause and curses could be heard continuously from the direction of the central square. It seemed that Camber's performance was quite popular.
Zero came to the window, and there was a vaguely dangerous smell in the air. He frowned and thought hard, but couldn't figure out where this feeling came from.
But Zero trusted his instincts, so he shoved the sniper round into Colt's gun. After thinking about it, he retracted the bullet again. Zero held the bullet in his hand, and his palm showed a faint red light. The burst of red water flowed like water, and then all of it was poured into the bullet. The sniper bullets glowed with red light streaks, which flashed and disappeared. However, the moment the bullet hits the target, it will trigger an explosion of the fire element.
Explosive bombs, an alternative use of zero first-level fire element proficiency, this is currently the only way he has found to use this elemental ability. Although the power of the explosion is only less than one-third of the fragments*, the performance of exploding after hitting the target can roughly double the power of ordinary sniper bullets.
Zero pressed the special bullet into the chamber of the gun, and then sat on the window sill, watching the old-style city flowing under the artificial lighting, silently waiting for the danger to come.
Campbell was delighted.
Anyone who made nearly a thousand dollars in one night would be as happy as Camber, and the money didn't require Campbell to sell anything. The only consumption was just Bechymos' physical strength.
The performance held in the central square is actually a display of Behemoth. The giant beast was put into a wider cage, which was big enough for Behemoth to move freely. The soldiers of the arctic fox beat the cage with an electric whip, and through the conductive properties of the cage, the Behemoth in the cage was subjected to constant electric shocks. It's just that what the current whip releases isn't high-voltage current, so Bechymos's functions haven't been paralyzed.
However, the behemoth was successfully provoked. It uses its roar and buzzing electric claws to show its wildness to the residents of Titan City.
All the people who came to see the excitement tonight were male adult residents of the city. Women and children were not allowed to participate in this kind of gathering. So now the central square has become a sea of men and beer.
Of course, Campbell would not let go of this good opportunity to make money. After charging a fee to watch Behemoth's performance, Campbell added another show. That is to challenge Behemoth, and the challenger needs to pay a fee. If the challenger knocked out Behemoth, Campbell would pay ten times more.
The folk customs of Titan City are already strong, but Camber's bounty irritates the eyes of these men even more. Men who advocated Spartan education were almost scrambling to challenge the behemoth Behemoth.
Among these, there are many mutants in the ability domain. Although their abilities hover around the second and third ranks, most of their transformed images are beasts such as bears and leopards. But without exception, apart from increasing Camber's income, they could only earn countless scars from Behemoth's electric claws. But even so, the men still enjoy it.
It was a crazy night, and the scorching sound in the central square made the soldiers of Titan City feel itchy. The blood boiling in their bodies made the soldiers wish they could challenge the mutant beast they had never seen before. Therefore, they were so excited that they didn't realize that their chief was a little strange tonight.
Cobb is the captain of the city defense team responsible for the defense of Titan City. He usually likes alcohol, cigarettes and women. This was no different from the other spartan men in Titan City, but tonight, since he and his adjutant mad dog came back from smoking a cigarette in the wilderness, it was much quieter than usual.
The first thing Cobb did after he came back was to give the soldiers a holiday. Except for the three personnel who were in charge of operating the lifting platform at the entrance of the base, the soldiers of the other city guards had a precious night's rest. This made the soldiers cheer for joy, but no one noticed that Cobb's eyes were much cloudier than usual.
After the soldiers left, Cobb suddenly said to one of his subordinates, "Open the entrance?"
The soldier thought he heard it wrong, and asked, "Boss, what did you say?"
"I said open the entrance," Cobb repeated.
The three soldiers looked at each other, and the one named said, "Head, what are you doing opening the entrance now?"
"That's a lot of nonsense." Cobb walked up suddenly and put his hand on the shoulder of this subordinate.
So the soldier suddenly heard a deep voice in his mind: "Now do as I say, open the entrance!"
The soldier's eyes immediately became as cloudy as Cobb's, and he began to operate mechanically. Watching the soldier enter a series of commands, the other two soldiers stood up, feeling that something was wrong.
Cobb suddenly got into trouble and fired two shots in a space less than three meters away. The bullet hit the soldier's young body, and they didn't even activate their best mutant ability, so they lay down in doubt.
However, the soldiers operating the platform turned a blind eye. Under his operation, the elevator at the entrance and exit of Titan City slowly opened, and a group of strange people entered the city. If the soldier is still sane, he will find that these people are the notorious wolf robbers in the wilderness.
The wolf thief drove the off-road vehicle and modified locomotive out of the elevator, and the red wolf was among them. The leader of the wolf thief squinted his eyes and looked towards the central square and said loudly: "Listen, we will create chaos there to attract the attention of the city's sheriff and soldiers. And ghost fox, you have twenty minutes During this period of time, take away as many brats from Titan City as possible."
"Understood, head."
Ghost Fox made an "OK" gesture, and whispered to himself, "Chaining mind hints is really not a human job." While talking, Ghost Fox walked into the elevator. There is a thin man next to the elevator door, he is wearing the soldier uniform of the Titan City Defenders. Seeing the ghost fox approaching, the man excitedly licked his tongue.
The ghost fox threw a bag of money to the man with a smile, and said: "Go away, mad dog, you'd better run away. Otherwise, let the people of Titan City know that you betrayed them, and be careful that they pull out your skin. "
This man is the mad dog, who tricked Cobb into the wilderness, and then the ghost fox gave Cobb a mental suggestion, thus mobilizing the soldiers and letting the wolf thief in. The red wolf has been coveting the children of Titan City who have the potential to be mutants for a long time, and such imps can be resold to black market dealers. They will be trained to be good soldiers, and such soldiers are needed in the Great Xia Kingdom, or the Holy Kingdom of the West Continent.
In the world, the Central Continent is not the only one where wars occur from time to time, the other two continents also have constant civil wars for many years. Children like Titan City can become excellent soldiers, which also means that they can be sold for a good price. And even children with no potential can be sold as slaves or hard labor. For Chilang, this is a sure-fire business.
It's just that Titan City is not a wilderness, and it's not like wolf robbers come just as they say. After nearly half a year of planning, the wolf thief opened a gap in the iron barrel-like Titan City through the man Mad Dog. Therefore, Chilang decided to do a big job tonight!
