Steel steam and flame

"In addition, Knowlton's adjutant sent news that most of the Thorny Birds' team consists of newcomers, almost all of whom are in the late second stage, and not many members of the third stage."

"No wonder the cleanup was so smooth and fast. Did you know that there were members of the Black Dragon Training Ground as the main force this time, so you used it to train new people?"

After the words, silence fell inside the pure black limo. Aiqi, who was sitting in the back seat, looked out the window at the large buildings swept by the cold wind. After a while, he spoke: "Mercenary and bounty hunter meet As a result, most of the members of the Black Dragon Training Ground will be killed. Only those who are famous among them have the strength to compete in all aspects of quality and strength."

"Make two notifications, one to the mercenaries and bounty hunters, asking them to speed up as much as possible and try to eliminate most of the Thorn Birds' teams before the sky fully lights up. It is expected that the number of thirteen or four teams will not exist Question. Another notification is sent to Anome and others, asking them to order the members of the trafficking network in the Cressi area to cooperate with the actions of the mercenaries and bounty hunters to eliminate the Thorny Bird members as soon as possible."

"In this operation, the Thorn Birds should provide a numerical advantage, while the Black Dragon Training Ground has prepared relevant members to clean up Anome and Knowlton."

Aiqi retracted his gaze from the window and looked at the neat street lights on both sides of the road from the front window, and a voice whispered in his heart.

"The Black Dragon Training Ground is just a surface, it's just a threat. The hidden danger is the biggest trouble at the moment. What was involved in Anome's terminated sales business in the Venast area?"

"Ciccia Mandeville's information has already been investigated clearly. The only thing that needs attention is the identity of the participants in the sacrificial ceremony. In the current situation where the alliance has given up on participants in rituals below the third stage by default, her becoming a commodity will probably have its own value. The biggest peak.”

"Or... will this be a repeat of history? Back then, that small fringe tribe involved Narco, the elite of the Beluga tribe. What will it be this time?"

"But as long as you have had contact with this trafficking network, you will definitely be able to find clues related to Nalco six years ago. Continue to follow the clues and search, and it will not be difficult to know that the boss behind the trafficking network is from the follow-up traces. At this point In the next step, based on the boss’s strength and current status, most people will have no desire to continue exploring.”

"Finally, someone couldn't help but want to break the silence and balance after the sacrifice ceremony?"

,,,,,,

The cold wind got stronger as the morning approached, and the windows rattled.

Seeing that the time had reached half past five, Xicia carefully poked her head out under the instructions of the second personality, but there was still no light in the quiet building outside.

A few minutes ago, the captain went to each room to look around, and he still had the same reminders - stay alert and be patient. But Sicia herself could tell that there was something else in the captain. After Cassia reminded her, she learned that this thing was called hidden panic.

"The synchronized action plan could have failed, and it is possible that some teams have been cleared out. It has actually happened. It has been several hours since the target group set up heavy firearms and bulletproof boards to enhance the defense of the building. . With the physical strength and mobility of the Stranger, and the fact that night can become a fast-moving curtain, there are so many things that can be done during this period." Cassia further expanded the range of mental perception, and felt a significant increase in consumption within a radius of about two thousand meters. Stop expanding after getting older.

The target group is still the same, maintaining a high degree of concentration like Xixia's team. There was no obvious movement around, but the strange senses similar to female intuition allowed Cassia to know that the danger was not far away from them and was approaching.

"The spiritual manifestation of danger perception?" Without thinking too much about it, Cassia reminded Sicia to be prepared to hand over control at any time.

As the time approached six o'clock, the sky turned a little gray, and Cassia in the spiritual world also sighed.

During mental perception, a team of thirty-two people approached from the side of the town, formed a right angle with the target group, and moved forward cautiously. The strange perception made Cassia detect the direction of the team more carefully, but it turned out that five snakes, less than one meter in length, had spread out in a fan shape and were heading towards the town. Although the shape of its head was analyzed vaguely, the sharp triangular shape immediately activated Cassia's memory.

"The black snake relies on temperature to lock onto the enemy. It curls up and launches attacks. Its strength and speed can penetrate the heads of everyone in this team."

"The other side doesn't know our position. There are opportunities to attack one side in advance or retreat. But where is the captain..." When Cassia paid attention to the captain's position, he happened to see him go to the end of the corridor of the office building and was contacting someone. . But it's more like a simple notification or order.

"It seems that the plan for this operation was incomplete from the beginning, and there were many problems. Or, from the beginning of the plan, this operation was just to clean up the core members, and the Thorny Bird team only joined in later." When thinking, The captain issued the latest order as expected.

"Everyone retreat immediately and discard heavy firearms!"

After a brief moment of astonishment, Xixia and several other people in the office quickly crouched to the corridor, where the team met.

In soft whispers, the team that reached the first level dispersed and headed away from the town. Everyone was cautious. When Sisia called Cassia, she was sure that she indeed heard the "dong dong" heartbeats of other members around her.

"With the existence of the second personality, I seem to be losing my actual sense of danger."

"Just follow the team and don't make any unnecessary moves. The enemy's reinforcements will miss you." Cassia explained the current situation. The team climbed over the outer wall of the educational institution and walked through the sparse buildings. Beyond that, there would be a wide and huge vineyard. "There shouldn't be a problem in retreating, if it's just..."

"What's wrong?" The pause in Cassia's words made Sisia nervous.

"The team you are in should be the last one or two that have not been cleared." Cassia replied while describing all the terrain and appearances in the perception in his mental body. He also had a detailed understanding of the thickness of the wall and its actual effectiveness as a bunker. Calculating together, "Do you remember the mock battle assessment?"

Cassia asked, and Sisia breathed out immediately: "I will carefully note down everything you said later, as well as the places where I feel confused that you have always reminded me to pay attention to."

The handover of body control was also successfully completed during the conversation between the two.

"Huh..." Cassia breathed out gently, and drew out the revolver while receiving various environmental information. In his perception, at the moment when control was handed over, the optical flow network hidden in Xixia's body seemed to be awakened or activated due to his own "return". "The degree of influence of the energy optical flow network on Xixia , some corrections need to be made later. The research and analysis on it must also be accelerated."
