American drama life begins with Dr. House

Sitting in the car were the two women whom Roger had just interacted with briefly at the shelter.

As for another man who made Rogge feel like he was carrying a thorn in his back, he whispered a few words to Duwei and then suddenly disappeared at a certain time.

This made Rogge realize that compared to the two sharp-edged women, this man who is easily ignored is the real top killer!

This discovery made Rogge become very interested in the organization behind Du Wei.

It seems that Du Wei is very partial to recruiting some top killers to do his job.

In the process of his contact with Du Wei, what Du Wei talked about most was the assassination operations against various top targets.

For example, when they first met, Duwei planned to involve him in the assassination of Wilson.

Although he didn't succeed, he witnessed Hell's Kitchen turning into a sea of ​​fire that night when he was on the run from the Illuminati.

He had more or less guessed what would happen to Wilson.

Later, Du Wei also revealed that he had made a move on the arbiter of the High Table.

According to the intelligence obtained by Rogge, the Judge was indeed assassinated.

Now Du Wei talked to him about assassinating the elders again.

This made Rogge vaguely feel that the organization behind Du Wei was also a killer organization.

It's just that unlike the mainland hotel killers, who are both good and bad, the organization behind Du Wei seems to be on a high-quality route.

At least that's how he feels right now.

With doubts, Rogge followed Du Wei and his group, who kept changing trains, to a subway station that had been abandoned for many years.

Speaking of which, he had also heard of the urban legend about this subway station. The general idea was that something incredible was dug out underneath, and then it was abandoned.

Of course, as a killer who harvests the lives of others in the dark, they naturally sneer at this kind of strange power and chaos.

If there really was such a supernatural incident, guys like them with their hands stained with blood would not survive the next midnight.

After driving in the dark passage for about ten minutes, Rogge's eyes suddenly opened up. He squinted and took a closer look. It turned out to be a subway platform with soft lights.

Above the platform was no ordinary waiting hall, but a steel wall with a cold sheen.

As the steel wall moved slowly, Rogge finally got a glimpse of the Salvation Base.

The new layout in the Salvation Base is completely incompatible with this dilapidated old platform.

The spacious and bright corridors, the green plants on both sides, and the comfortable layout make people think that it would be nice to live here for a long time.

It happened that at this moment, someone was rubbing his eyes and walking out of the door. Through the wide open door, Rogge had a new understanding of the comfort of the room.

Apart from the fact that it is underground, the livability of this base is quite high.

But this also means that there are very few people in this base, so it can maintain such quality.

This further strengthened Rogge's view that this was a killer base.

Only killers who need to fight for their lives all day long need to enjoy life all the time.

After all, after a certain mission, they may never enjoy the fun of life again.

The four words "carpe diem" are engraved in the bones of many killers.

Just when Rogge wanted to see what else was in this secret base, Duwei took him to a large conference room.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the extremely conspicuous large screen. The real-time picture on it was the bombed Continental Hotel and the port at the exit of the secret passage of the shelter.

There are now a large number of uniformed guards at both locations, busy with something unknown.

It seems that if Winston had been slower to give the order to leave, then the life of the legendary manager of the Continental Hotel might have come to an end.

But it seemed that was not what Du Wei wanted him to see.

I only heard Du Wei speaking as if talking to himself:

"Machine, have you contacted Uncle Punishment?"

Just when Rogge was wondering what Du Wei was doing, words popped up on the screen in front of him.

"Lost connection status, temporarily unable to connect, please wait..."

Only then did Rogge suddenly realize that it was artificial intelligence.

He didn't expect that this base would have artificial intelligence like a smart home.

However, this kind of thing is too tasteless in his opinion.

For example, for the sake of simplicity, you don't even install a light switch in the bedroom.

As a result, I was drowsy in my sleep and suddenly had an urgent need to urinate, and I had to shout loudly to turn on the light.

This scene is so funny no matter how you think about it.

Regarding Du Wei's approach of showing off his skills more than being practical, Rogge shook his head slightly to express his disapproval.

It's obviously just a matter of typing a few letters on the keyboard, but it has to be done by artificial intelligence that doesn't run smoothly.

It's really unnecessary.

Du Wei, who caught a glimpse of Rogge's little move, smiled softly.

Of course he realized that Rogge regarded the machine as an ordinary artificial intelligence.

But he didn't plan to explain anything. As long as he stayed here, Rogge would sooner or later understand the difference between this artificial intelligence and other ordinary things.

However, Uncle Punishment's side was actually in a signal blocking state, which made Du Wei a little worried.

Although he thought that even if John and Uncle Punishment could not kill the elder together, there should be no problem in escaping.

But everything in this world is just a matter of chance.

"Machines, mobilize satellites, and directly remotely sense that area. I need to know the current situation."

"Image is being generated, please wait..."

…

Time goes back not long ago.

When the Praetorian Guards launched an attack on the Continental Hotel, John, who was unconscious due to extreme dehydration, was stripped of all his equipment and carried away by two guys wearing turbans.

Brada gritted her teeth with hatred when she saw that the 70 million she had received disappeared.

But he couldn't say the word 'no'.

Because taking John away was what the elders meant.

He also didn't expect that from the first day John came to Casablanca, the elders were already paying attention to this so-called strongest killer in recent years.

So the deal he made with John was also under the elders' control.

When John was unconscious, the elder's order also came.

Now Brada can only watch the high bounty fly away from his eyes.

At the same moment, Uncle Pun, who was on the plane, also saw the movement of the GPS signal.

When Uncle Puny received Du Wei's video call request, the fast-moving GPS signal gradually stopped.

There is the hinterland of the Sahara Desert, a place known as the forbidden area of ​​life.

No one who enters there can ever come out.

Residents near the desert say that there are man-eating devils there, so they will discourage any travelers who attempt to cross the Sahara Desert.

And those travelers who didn't listen to the advice never came out again, as the legend goes.

It seemed to prove that what the local residents said was true.

But it is obvious that there are no devils in the hinterland of the Sahara Desert, only the family power of the elders.

The GPS signal currently parked there is the best proof.

At the location of the GPS signal, John, who was extremely thirsty, gradually woke up from his coma.

He licked his moist lips. It was obvious that someone had given him water not long ago.

John struggled to open his eyes. The first thing he saw was the water in the red cup in front of him, and then he saw the elder sitting on the stage in front of him.

John subconsciously wanted to touch the gun at his waist, because only firearms were his most reliable partners.

But this time his partner had already disappeared from his waist.

The elder who saw this scene said calmly:

"No need to look for it. There is no weapon on you. Drink water, otherwise you won't even be able to say a word."

After hearing this, John slowly remembered the plan made by Du Wei in his mind that was suffering from a splitting headache.

Strictly executing the plan, he did meet the elder as Du Wei expected.

He looked at the glass of water in front of him with some hesitation, but the thirst in his throat frantically urged him to swallow the glass of water.

John swallowed hard, and the saliva sliding down his throat was like a dull knife scraping against the bones, which was extremely uncomfortable.

He could no longer bear this feeling, but when he was about to drink the glass of water, the elder sitting on the table suddenly said:

"Child, why are you so confused?"

John put down the water glass and wanted to answer.

But when he opened his mouth, he made a sound of "ho ho ho", which made him realize that he really couldn't make a sound without drinking water.

John took up the water again, which was extremely precious in the desert, and drank it.

For a moment, the feeling of cold water sliding down his throat made John feel that maybe the most beautiful moment in the world was now.

After taking a short rest, he tried to speak again. This time, he was able to successfully speak a complete sentence.

Just listen to John say in a hoarse voice:

"I'm not confused, I've been looking for you."

The elder shook his head and was obviously not satisfied with John's answer:

"Do you think I'm telling you your location?

I have never seen a person try so hard to get out of this life only to end up back where he started.

Tell me, John, is there any point in doing all this? Why do you want to live?"

John smiled bitterly and lowered his head. At the same time, he also took this opportunity to have a clear view of the scene in the tent.

It was obvious that this tent was set up temporarily, and there was very little dust inside.

This means that the elder's daily life is definitely located in a secret base under the desert.

So here comes the question, is this extraordinary guy on the stage really an elder?

John was thinking in his mind and replied at the same time:

"It's meaningful. I can remember my wife Helen and the happy times we had together while I'm alive."

Upon hearing this answer, the elder's face immediately showed a mocking expression:

“So you want to live for the memories of love?

Did you know that Helen was also a registered killer at the Continental Hotel?

It's just that she's terrible and can't even complete a single task.

Until one day, her mission target became you, and she successfully completed the mission for the first time.

Because she stole your heart."

When John heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and details that he had always ignored came to mind.

Did it turn out that the two of them have always been replicas of Mr. and Mrs. Smith?

But he... doesn't regret it.

He will never forget the happiness Helen brought him.

Even if Helen approached him for other purposes at first, he believed that love would never be fake.

Thinking of those sweet pasts, John couldn't help but smile.

At the same time, he also bit the vaccine in the gap between his left molars, allowing the vaccine to start acting on his whole body.

But the elder gradually frowned when he saw that John was not as crazy as he expected.

John's reaction now was not what he wanted to see.

What he wants is to see John's despair, so that John will become a real night devil and the indestructible sharp knife in his hand!

Because John who has love has the weakness of human nature!

But he failed, and a look of disappointment flashed in the elder's eyes.

Then he had no choice but to choose another path for John.

"It seems that you have forgiven her, and I already know your purpose of coming to me.

Then I can give you one last chance to redeem your own life.

Complete a difficult assassination mission for us, just like you have done countless times in the past.

You will then be allowed to continue living, your public bounty will be revoked, and you will become a member of the Continental Hotel again.

But you will never be able to escape the control of the High Table. You will always be bound by the rules of the High Table. You will always be my most obedient dog!

You'll be doing what you do best for the rest of your life!"

Having said this, the elder threw a sharp dagger over from a distance.

"I never force others to do something they don't want to do, so the choice is yours.

Should I die at this moment, or should I live at the cost of freedom and gain the opportunity to recall the past?"

Looking at the dagger on the carpet, John gradually realized that things were developing just as Duwei said.

He asked subconsciously:

"What do you need me to do?"

The elder, who thought John had accepted his conditions, calmly said:

"Your life needs to be exchanged for someone else's death.

So your first target is Winston, the manager of the Continental Hotel in New York.

He broke his promise and betrayed the High Table.

So if you want to live and recall the past, then let me see your sincerity."

The elder's eyes fell on the wedding ring on John's ring finger, and then looked at the dagger on the side. The meaning couldn't be more obvious.

He asked John to cut off his own finger and give it to him as a tribute.

This is a dog training process, and John will have a chance of survival if he follows it.

Because doing so means John becomes an obedient dog.

John took a deep breath, closed his eyes, then clenched his teeth, picked up the dagger on the ground, and pointed it at his finger, as if he was about to cut it off.

But John's trembling hand never dropped. Instead, he pretended to shout in pain and threw the dagger aside.

And as John opened his mouth, the invisible virus spread along with the ubiquitous hot wind in the desert.

When the elder sitting on the stage saw John's reluctance to take action, his eyes were filled with contempt.

"John, it seems I misjudged you.

Love is indeed your greatest weakness, it has corroded your indestructible body.

Now you are no longer the feared night demon.

You are just a rat running around in the sewers now.

John, if you can't get out of this desert, you will be burned by the intense...cough...cough cough, sunburn...cough cough cough!"

The elder who was talking suddenly felt an unstoppable itching in his throat.

This made him stop talking and start coughing.

It's really strange, since his genetically optimized body should not be infected with diseases.

But why is he coughing now, and the coughing is getting worse?

Not only the elders, but everyone in the entire tent had similar symptoms.

The elder even saw fist-sized pustules appearing on the body of the servant who had not been genetically modified.

This discovery caused his pupils to shrink to the size of a pinhead.

He instantly realized that an unknown virus was spreading in the tent, and John looked like he was fine.

How could the elder not know that he was being plotted against?

He raised his hand tremblingly and pointed at John:

"You...cough cough cough cough cough."

Now he felt that it was impossible for the elder to say a complete sentence. He looked at the blood spitting out of his palms and immediately understood that he was about to die.

This realization brought an unknown smile to his face.

He really didn't expect that he, who had been living in seclusion in the Sahara Desert, would die at the hands of an unknown virus.

But what if he dies? There are still thousands of him who will stand up again!

John looked at the scene in front of him that was like a human tragedy, and he couldn't help showing a moved expression on his face.

After all, ending someone else's life quickly and watching someone die painfully are completely different experiences.

But one thing Du Wei is right about is that this virus is really scary.

In just seven or eight minutes, everyone in the tent except him was almost dead.

Fortunately, the wind that was still there just now stopped for some reason.

This gave John time to completely seal the tent.

John, who was outside the tent, looked at the long-dead but still deforming bodies in the tent, and once again felt the horror of this compound virus.

Du Wei is absolutely right in calling it the king of viruses.

Now he can only pray that the help arranged by Du Wei will arrive as soon as possible.

Otherwise, when half an hour passes, John can't guarantee that he will still be alive.

Just then, he heard the sound of a plane flying overhead.

A guy wearing a bloated Level 4 protective suit clumsily operated a parachute and accidentally landed exactly where John was.

The two of them didn't communicate too much. They directly assembled the extremely high-temperature flamethrower and started burning the scene.

After the burning, Uncle Punishment, whose face was hidden behind a mask, signaled John to put on protective clothing.

He needed time to confirm that John was not infected with the virus.

After doing all this, they suddenly found a cover under the burned tent.

It seems like this is the passage leading to the elder's secret base?

The two looked at each other through their masks, and suddenly realized that their mission was probably far from over.

At this time, Uncle Punishment tried to contact Du Wei.

But Du Wei, who was within the explosion range of the cruise missile, had no signal at all.

In desperation, he could only take off his level-4 protective clothing and let John wait for him above. He ventured into the vertical downward passage.

But the scene inside surprised Uncle Punishment.
