Colt's gun was aimed at the man who had just emerged from the tunnel exit. In his infrared vision, he could clearly see that the man's hands had turned into the twisting vines of thorns. They stuck out from the sleeves of the man's windbreaker like a dozen or so vipers coiling together, like octopus tentacles, ready to violently wound at any moment.
As the man walked out of the pa.s.sage, the guns of Maple, Sue, and Mappa were pointed at him. Gunnar didn't put Maple and Sue's machine guns in his eyes at all. However, Ma pei's flamethrower made him secretly pay attention. As a plant type with mutated abilities, like most plants, Günabel was also afraid of the high temperature of the flames, which was one of his few weaknesses. However, he did not show it on his face. He did not even glance at the mech's ejector, making it impossible to know what he was thinking.
Although he pointed at him with Colt's finger, he did not feel that his victory was within his grasp. Gounabel was constantly changing angles in his eyes, and his shadow was swaying gently all around him at a level that normal vision would not be able to capture. Zero had also split the images that appeared in a second into dozens of frames before discovering the subtle differences. If not for the fact that he was already at the fifth step, Zero's brain would not be able to perform such a minute calculation.
Now, after killing the Adept Hans near the Hulson Bridge, Zero's processing of data had increased by several levels. Thus, this conclusion can now be reached by observing Gunabel.
Those slight changes in angle indicated that Gunnar was constantly making subtle movements. Even if Zero fired immediately, it might not be able to kill him. At the very least, he wouldn't be able to cause fatal injuries!
"Who are you?" His voice was calm and indifferent, without the slightest bit of emotion.
"Do you really need to know who I am, a dying man?" "You just need to understand that I'm here to kill you."
Zero's brain started working at high speed, almost half of his energy pouring into the calculation. In an indescribably brief instant, he already had an answer.
From the way Gunnar was dressed, he was not one of the Asgard men. Of course, he could change his clothes to conceal his ident.i.ty. But right now, the a.s.sessment to become a new recruit of the Hammer of Destruction is in progress. As Asgard's elite army, Zero did not believe that anyone could casually enter the exam site to kill someone. The killing intent of the white man's sudden attack just now showed that he really wanted to kill Zero. If not for this killing intent, Zero would not have been able to discover it.
The Adepts in Asgard couldn't, and wouldn't, kill anyone in broad daylight. Even if he was able to kill everyone present, through the traces left behind at the scene, he would definitely be discovered afterwards. After all, every organization and city had strict control over Adepts, and Asgard was no exception. All Adepts were recorded to be capable of concealing their true strength, with the exception of an artificial G.o.d like Feng.
Thus, as long as he compared the information with the police, he would be able to find out the ident.i.ty of the murderer easily.
Under the leaders.h.i.+p of the Heroic Spirit Hall, Asgard formed a rule that was not a rule. That was, the Warriors of Asgard could die on the battlefield, but not in a conspiracy!
Excluding Asgard, it was almost certain that this man came from somewhere else. At the moment, only the Dark Council and Parkland's chauffeurs have the slightest intention of killing them. However, it was impossible for the Dark Council to go all out against the Hall of Heroic Spirits just for a situation where they were risking their lives to break the peace. Then, the remaining possibility was …
"Did Parkland send you?" he asked.
Gunnar's smile faded and he made a surprised face, confirming Zero's guess from the side. But the man did not try to hide it and admitted it, "You are smarter than I expected. d.a.m.n it, to get rid of you, old Brent made a huge fortune. But I can understand the old man's thoughts. After all, his favorite child is also the heir to the family that died in your hands. "
"Are you ready to die, then?"
Gunnar let out a laugh and leaned forward, ready to pounce. But at this moment, he suddenly felt a great pain between his eyebrows, as if a steel nail had pierced into him. He knew that this was the feeling of being locked on by zero, and it also meant that zero was about to pull the trigger. However, Günagur was preparing himself when he suddenly dodged to the left. However, he did not have enough time to feel proud, because Zero's black muzzle was already waiting for him.
As expected, when he fired a shot from his gun, Gunnar moved sideways to dodge it. The real killer was at this moment, Günabel himself, who appeared in his predetermined trajectory as if he had run into a door. Zero naturally did not show any courtesy.
The black muzzle flashed.
There was no time for Gounabel to make another evasive move, so he could only cross his arms in front of his chest. The vines twisted together, forming two strange, conical thorns. He had just finished his protective maneuver when his body shook. The powerful force from the sniper rifle sent him flying into the air and he was thrown to the back of the group.
When the sound of a sniper sounded out, Zero turned around and ran.
On the other side, Gunnar, who had fallen to the ground, sprung up in a strange position. Nine of the ten vines in his left hand were broken, and the broken vines even began to smoke from the heat created by the adjustment of the movement of the bullets. Günabel's eyes locked onto Zero's back. He cursed, and his arms and legs split into brambles and vines.
These things rapidly pierced in all directions. The moment they touched the wall or anything else, the thorns on the surface would pierce into the object. After catching these things, the vine swung in the opposite direction, immediately pus.h.i.+ng Gunabel towards the zero point. In this way, Günabel continued to circle the movement, allowing himself to chase after Zero like a giant spider into the darkness that had disappeared from sight.
As he watched Zero leave, he was originally going to chase after him, but Feng stopped him.
Feng's voice was very solemn in the communication channel: "Stop chasing, don't tell me you don't understand why Captain is doing this? He wants to lure the guy away so we can move on. What we need to do now is to complete the mission for the captain! "
With that, Feng let go of her hand. The man turned silently and walked in the opposite direction. Without a word, Maple followed him, followed by Eva and the other living corpses. Su Qu took a deep look at the direction that Su
As Feng thought, zero did not want Gunabel to slow the progress of the team. Besides, Gunnar had come for him alone. Therefore, he had decided to face this duel alone.
He ran fast, but Gunnar was not slow either, closing in behind Zero.
As he ran, Zero suddenly crashed to the left, knocking open an alloy door. The force of the collision was great, and the entire alloy door, with its frame frame, was knocked into the room. They landed heavily on the ground, sending sparks flying and knocking rows of filing cabinets to the ground. It looked like a archive, but he didn't have much time to worry about it as he ran back to the security door.
With a snap, a thick vine poked through the door and knocked upside down on the edge of the door. And then more vines were sticking out of the archives, anchoring them to the walls, the ceiling, and so on. The vines suddenly tightened, and Gunnar was brought into the room. At this moment, Zero ran to the safety gate.
"You can't escape!" "Zero!" Gunnar shouted and a thick vine shot towards Zero like a poisonous snake.
Suddenly, Zero dropped to the ground and slid towards the safety gate, using the force of the impact to slide down to the ground. At the same time, he flipped his body and did not stop moving. However, the sniper rifle released sparks in the darkness.
The bullet shot out by Colt spun at high speed, bringing up a blurry red light as it pa.s.sed by Guntherson in an instant. This time, Gunnar's vines were not twisted together. The sniper grenade easily tore apart a dozen thick vines, causing Gunnar to lose his balance and fall to the ground. However, in the next moment, new plant tissue was formed on the broken vine. Instead of the torn parts of the bullet, they formed new vines.
The newly formed vine soon supported Gunabel, allowing him to pursue the zero step further. The result of the zero shot had only made Günabel stop for less than two seconds.
Zero had slid out of the security door and into an office. The office was dilapidated, and the ceiling lights hung with wires to the floor. As for the tables and chairs in the office, they fell all the way to the west corner of the office, as if something had struck them. On the floor, there were computer parts scattered everywhere, and the screen of the computer was visible everywhere.
Suddenly stopping, Zero ran to the west side of the office and hid behind a toppled table. As soon as he had hidden himself, Gunnar came after him. Gunnar looked toward the office door and saw that it was closed. He smiled because he knew Zero was still hiding in the office.
Gunnar didn't have the infrared vision in his tactical helmet, but his nearly ubiquitous vines were able to move around and construct a spatial model of what he touched in his brain. At the same time, the thorns on Günabel's vines were not only sharp, but also sensitive. They could sense the vibrations in the air. Therefore, even in the dark, no living thing could escape Günabel's senses.
In Günabel's mind, a messy three-dimensional model of the office was quickly constructed as the vines moved around. Judging from the scene in the model, the most likely hiding spot for Zero was naturally the table and chairs on the west side of the wall. Thus, he walked over. At this moment, the thorns on the vine could feel the air trembling. The data was relayed back into Gunnar's mind. In that model of his mind, there appeared another image of a human figure leaping out of a table and chair!
One of the vines instantly swept towards the figure in the 3D model. Brambles exposed to the air immediately formed countless numbers through the vibrations of the airflow, and then fed them into Gunnar's mind. He "saw" the figure being easily cut in two by Tengman, and although the blow was successful, he felt that something was wrong.
In the next moment, his whole body violently shook, and a scorching feeling came from his chest. Only then did he realize that the one he had hit was not zero, but something else!
At this moment, the loud sound of a sniper rifle echoed in the office.
Zero appeared from behind the cover. He had just thrown out the body of a staff member from the base office. At the same time that Günabel attacked him, Zero seized the opportunity to shoot him in the heart. However, Gunnabel did not fall because of this. In Zero's line of sight, he first looked at his chest in astonishment, then revealed a strange smile.
"That was close. If it were any other person …" This shot will take their lives, but your opponent is me. I am immortal! " "Ahhhhhhhhhhh!" Gunnar screamed, his body shaking violently. In the next moment, dozens of thick vines pierced towards the direction of zero like javelins.
"In this world, there is nothing that can't be killed!" At the same time, he kicked with both feet, lifting the tables and chairs to welcome the incoming vines.
The tables and chairs were like mush, they were easily pierced through by the vines. However, these things were not invisible, so the th.o.r.n.y vines' piercing speed could not help but slow down. Taking advantage of this period of time, he lowered his body, rolled, bounced, and sprinted.
Several movements were executed consecutively, without any pause at all. The speed was so fast that Gunnar didn't have enough time to catch a zero, who had already broken through the door.
With a loud curse, Gunnar turned around and gave chase. As a result, there were flashes of fire and gunshots along the way.
A G.o.ddess of Vengeance was wandering around the main pa.s.sageway at the crossroads. On both sides of the G.o.ddess of Vengeance were bloodstained metal walls. There were countless lines on the wall. Those were the circuits of the electronic crystal tubes that were hidden inside the wall. However, due to various reasons, they were all exposed now. Under the walls on both sides, there were countless bug corpses. Most of these bodies were human face moths, and a half-worm would appear in the middle.
The buggies, like the butchers, used simple weapons of their own making. However, it was different from the butcher's favorite cold weapon. The Insect Man used an energy-type weapon that could be connected to the body, and from there on out, one could use his life to injure the enemy. These weapons had different shapes and shapes, and their lethality was directly related to the strength of the buggies' biological energy. However, even the smallest weapon could create a b.l.o.o.d.y hole in the G.o.ddess of Vengeance.
These corpses were all the masterpieces of the Vengeance G.o.ddess, but after killing so many bugs, the Vengeance G.o.ddess was no exception. Half of its head had been cut off by something unknown, but it didn't hurt its brain. However, looking through the wound, he could see the grey brain of the Vengeance G.o.ddess moving. On the other hand, this large bug was covered in bloodstains. It had its own blood, but most of the blood belonged to the enemies.
The enemies were the Human-Faced Moths and Demirams that suddenly rushed up from the 5th floor of the base. The Vengeance G.o.ddess and her neighbors didn't get along well. Occasionally, there would be Human-Faced Moths running out from the lower level bases. However, there were very few of them, and the G.o.ddess of Vengeance's lazy nerves didn't have any motivation for them to take action against the Human-Faced Moths. But this time was different. Since three days ago, a large number of Human-Faced Moths had swarmed towards the four-story base.
This aroused the wrath of the Vengeance G.o.ddess, though the weather had turned cold, and the fat insects were reluctant to move their bodies. However, this did not mean that the Vengeance G.o.ddess was magnanimous. No matter which type of insect it was, it was extremely regional in nature. The 4th floor's base had already been recognized as the territory by the Vengeance G.o.ddess, and now these bold neighbors had actually barged in openly, and there were so many of them that it seemed like they were occupying the 4th floor's base.
The G.o.ddess of Vengeance's wrath was successfully ignited by the Moths. The warriors who were originally hibernating were roused and joined the ranks of the counterattack. Thus, the war between the Vengeance G.o.ddess and the Man-Faced Moths had been going on for three days and three nights. Countless Man-Faced Moths had died, and more than three hundred elites like the Insect Man had fallen. However, the G.o.ddess of Vengeance had also suffered heavy losses.
At least fifty of the G.o.ddesses of Vengeance had fallen into a deep slumber. For a G.o.ddess of Vengeance whose race had matured less than two hundred, the deaths of fifty warriors was already a heavy loss.
The giant bug let out a m.u.f.fled roar as the flame of fury burned through the Vengeance G.o.ddess' nerves. The roar echoed through the pa.s.sageway and slowly spread out.
The Vengeance G.o.ddess' skin would occasionally wrinkle, which was her special ability. The worms whose eyes had already degenerated after living underground for a long time started to use the Vengeance G.o.ddess as their starting point through the undulations created by the folds of their skin to create a circular wave field with a diameter of 500 meters. When shock waves..h.i.t an obstacle, they feed the data back to the worm's brain, allowing it to "see" anything in the dark.
At this moment, the movements of a human face moth suddenly appeared in the Vengeance G.o.ddess's line of sight. The G.o.ddess of Vengeance immediately entered a battle-ready state. She shrunk her body, and the huge creatures within her body could be transmitted to the biological bombs on the surface of her body through special channels. A biological bomb that was like a sarcoma emitted blue light from within. This beautiful yet dangerous fluorescent light was the symbol of the G.o.ddess of Vengeance's attack!
The six nostril like holes on the G.o.ddess of Vengeance's skin spewed out the same amount of hot air. Suddenly, the surface of the worm's skin rapidly folded, as if a wave of flesh was stirred up. As the wave of flesh formed, the G.o.ddess of Vengeance tossed the biological bombs in the direction where the Man-Faced Moths appeared.
When the first biological bomb exploded, the blue coloured flames illuminated an area of several hundred meters. In front of him was a dense crowd of thousands of Human-Faced Moths. When the firelight from the biological bomb appeared, the manface moth behind it knew that its location had been exposed, so it only flew into the air, bringing along the wind mixed with neurotoxins and pouncing towards the Vengeance G.o.ddess.
As a result, they were welcomed by even more biological bombs.
As the explosions rang out, the dark blue flame flowers began to bloom within the dark base. The blooming of each blue flame represented the death of over a hundred Human-Faced Moths. Life withered in the blazing flames, but death did not stop the Man-Faced Moths from attacking. Instead, they became more and more crazy!
Every time a biological bomb was thrown, the G.o.ddess of Vengeance's skin would bulge. The body fat changes rapidly at the command of the brain, separating muscle tissue and nerve vessels from the body to form a sarcomlike, independent body. However, this individual would leave behind a tiny wall of flesh to connect the worm's body. When the G.o.ddess of Vengeance needed it, the creature inside the worm would quickly be injected into the sarcoma through the wall of blood, forming a biological bomb that would delay the explosion!
In this way, the G.o.ddess of Vengeance was like a weapons factory, constantly creating biological bombs and blossoming flowers of death in the base.
