Steel steam and flame

"I'll wait here for five hours." Outside the car window, a corner of the park with some evergreen plants appeared and quickly expanded in sight. Aiqi cut off the communication, took slow and deep breaths, and calmed his uneasy emotions, impatience, and chaotic thoughts back to normal. He picked up the megaphone again and contacted his boss far away on the border of the Saint Dorag Empire.

,,,,,,

Cassia didn't know how long ago the enemy had the idea of ​​​​retreating. Compared with their attack and defense, the evacuation movements and processes were much smoother.

Leaning next to the central exchange fan of the air circulation system, he saw that enemies on the roofs or floors of other buildings also began to leave the sniper point in an orderly manner. Cassia observed the simply modified firecracker in his hand without using an optical anchor sight. Fire a shot at an enemy three hundred meters away.

There was a rustling sound in the air, and the enemy's left ear was shattered into pieces. Immediately afterwards, the second bullet pierced his head.

"There is a slight deviation to the left." Cassia finished the calibration while muttering to herself. He held the firegun in both hands and moved slowly in a circle around the exchange fan of the air circulation system, pressing the trigger with regularity like the pendulum of a copper bell. Bullets shuttled in the cold wind, and almost every bullet could take away an enemy.

Before the bullets in a magazine were exhausted, there was no one alive on the rooftops of the surrounding buildings. Cassia was now close to the edge of the top floor, crouching in a corner, letting the muzzle of the gun go outside the vertical projection of the building. Relying on the observation of mental perception and the fine control of his arms, he shot at a fixed target, and the enemies on the street fell instantly. There were about ten people.

By the time the enemy discovered the source of the bullet, Cassia had already changed positions and accurately killed the enemy on another street. But this information quickly reached the ears of all enemies, and more and more members entered the building. Ben walked completely relying on other buildings to form angle deviations, keeping himself in a state of being completely blocked.

But the result of more than fifty enemies in total made Cassia quite satisfied. I wanted to look for an opportunity to snipe away two core members. But only when the Black Dragon training ground and Korkwa's support team appeared, the two briefly left the limo covered with composite bulletproof panels. When one core member loses contact, the remaining two never leave the limo.

The limo was also seriously overloaded with heavily armed personnel as a second layer of protection. Unless it was a heavy sniper rifle using blue silver bullets or a large-caliber weapon like a machine gun, in other cases it would not be possible at all. There is no possibility of sniping.

At this time, Cassia "saw" the limo in which the other two core members were located started to turn and evacuated separately in directions away from each other. The limousines accelerated very quickly, one rushing towards the nearest highway entrance and the other towards the suburbs outside the city. Without any hesitation, he rushed towards the stairs, chasing the core member who was only four hundred meters away from him.

When Cassia reached the first floor of this building, the straight-line distance between him and the limousine was 600 meters away. Just as he was about to continue pursuing the pursuit, something strange happened to his spirit. He immediately started to use his mental perception, but it was Perkins and Hilary Lee who started the limousine at the same time and approached the enemy vehicle heading towards the entrance of the highway.

Exhaling for no apparent reason, Cassia felt pity for the enemies in that vehicle, and her thoughts immediately thought of the rich expressions on their faces when they met Perkins and Hilary.

Then, he tore off large pieces of cloth from the enemy corpses around him and wrapped his head so that his appearance would not be exposed. Then they changed direction and pursued the core members who were rushing towards the outer suburbs of the city.

The surrounding enemies were retreating, leaving only sparse corpses. Cassia locked the limo and ran at the highest speed without opening the cross pupils. However, the relative speed still could not be reduced, and the distance was quickly pulled away after being tens of meters closer.

"The physical strength is still not up to the passing line." Cassia felt it was a pity. He hesitated whether to continue the pursuit, but stopped after thinking about it. Just as he turned around and returned to the underground parking lot, four people entered the mental perception at an extremely fast speed, but the target was the limo.

"People from Korkva?" Regarding the four people who suddenly appeared, Cassia was not sure of their identities for a while.

More than a thousand meters ahead, after two breaths, four people suddenly appeared and the limo met at an intersection. The four people did not use firearms. Instead, they pulled out their pneumatic weapons and started them at the same time when they were within thirty to fifty meters of the limo. That limo was not modified for red-hot pneumatic weapons. The composite bulletproof plate and the alloy steel plate tens of millimeters thick would not have any defense against high temperatures.

The enemies in the limo responded that they were about to be attacked, but there was not enough time left for them to respond. The car was severely overloaded and space was very limited. Their first reaction was to open the car door and open fire to attack, but the other four people moved very fast and became four shadows that solidified around the limo in the blink of an eye. Each of them kicked the car door that was about to open and completely closed it.

The blades of the four pneumatic swords were directly submerged into the ceremonial car. They stabbed several times very quickly in succession, crossing and penetrating the bodies of the seven people inside. After confirming that everyone was dead, the four of them threw fist-sized objects into the limo at the same time, and immediately rushed into the surrounding streets with the pneumatic swords that gradually lost their temperature, and quickly disappeared.

The limousine then hit a tree on the street and finally came to a stop. In the past ten seconds, orange flames spurted out from the partially opened car window and the melted hole of the pneumatic sword. The fire spread and quickly enveloped the limousine and the trees on the street.

At the same time, about three hundred meters away from the violently burning limousine, on the middle floor of a building, a thick curtain was lowered behind a certain glass window.

"Doing this will be regarded as fulfilling your orders. The other two...one of them is in the hands of the Spiny Bird or the Black Dragon Training Ground. There is no way he can survive. The remaining one is running away in the opposite direction, and it is impossible to catch up now."

"Perhaps the team that does not belong to the Black Dragon and Thorny Bird training ground can intercept that member. But it is confirmed that the two core members are dead and the goal has been achieved. In the future, we will also anonymously submit some information about the trafficking network in the Cressi area. A little help can dismantle most of the trafficking networks in this area. These lost profits are enough to deepen the conflict."

"The remaining thing is to investigate who is behind this team. The boss behind the trafficking network also has a cooperative relationship with several other monsters. The adults said that they will decide whether to join a certain side for fun based on the situation. . So the early intelligence collection work is very important. It is also equally important to make things more lively. In short, the choice of whether to enter is in our own hands."

"I know, but it's not my own business. The investigation of this team is ongoing. Now that it has appeared, it will only take a week to get a definite result. But compared to it, I am more concerned about the training of the Thorn Birds. Someone in the team is interested. I guess your thoughts are the same as mine. Of course, the premise is that she is still alive."

"The answer will be available in a few days. I entrusted several people at the Thorny Bird Training Ground to help me pay attention to whether she returns alive. Well..., after the meeting, the adults said they would go and have a look. You went there with the adults It’s from that training ground.”

"A very ordinary person. Your Excellency even released her breath to verify, but found no difference. However, she seems to be different from ordinary strange people, which is a wonderful feeling. If she is indeed special, and can It is definitely a terrifying thing to remain calm under the aura of adults and deceive their eyes with a realistic performance.”

Why did the speeding pure black limousine suddenly slow down, why did it suddenly come over and stop steadily with the limousine she was in, almost perfectly synchronizing the movements - Lina tried her best to think about it, but she couldn't find it. Correct and specific reasons.

The two people in the driver's seat and passenger seat of the limo are very mysterious and extremely powerful. This is not intuition or a woman’s sixth sense, the air around both speaks of that fact all the time.

"Miss Linna."

"Ah..." Awakened by Hilary Riley's voice, Lina's thoughts immediately disconnected and she responded reflexively.

"Can I borrow your pistol?" Before she finished speaking, Lina had already pulled out the pistol and handed it over. She was very formal and polite, and the muzzle of the gun was always pointed towards herself.

"Thank you." Hillary didn't comment on this, her voice was still the same as before. She tilted her head and said to the passenger seat, "Mr. Milius, are you okay?"

After getting a nod, Hilary slowly lowered the glass window next to her. At the same time, another limo less than 30 centimeters away also lowered all its windows - it was packed with people. Although it was an extended and heightened model, the number of thirteen people, most of them were heavily armed. Members, the interior space of the limousine is visibly crowded.

Among the thirteen people, except for the driver, who was in a state of confusion and expressionless, everyone else had fallen into a coma.

"Thank you, Mr. Milius." Hilary said. The only awake person in the limo nodded immediately, then tilted his head, and also fell into a coma.

Lina saw Hilary firing the gun, and her finger actually pressed the trigger without any unnecessary movement. But in her eyes, the shooting itself seemed extremely strange and full of unexplainable mysteries.

She heard no gunfire, not even the spring sound that should have been there when the trigger was depressed. She didn't see the bullet casing thrown away... no, it should be said that she saw it, but the bullet casing disappeared out of thin air the moment it was pulled out of the gun chamber. She didn't see the muzzle flash or even a bit of gunpowder smoke.

But she knew, and was certain that Hilary Riley was actually shooting. Not only that, there were many things that confused her, felt mysterious and could not find an explanation.

Why did the people in the limo become unconscious and why did the driver park the limo? She confirmed that the pistol she gave Hilary was of ten millimeter caliber, and the ammunition was only platinum bullets. Its power could not penetrate the angled visor-style bulletproof helmets of the heavily armed members in the limo.

But she saw with her own eyes that bullet holes appeared on those helmets in the order of Hillary's mood, and then the bullets penetrated the enemy's head. The thirteen people in the limo didn't even need to finish a magazine. In just five seconds, less than a breath, thirteen people were pronounced dead.

Hillary raised the window glass at this time, and the limo accelerated a little forward to another street.

"Well,..., he said he had to deal with a few problems, but he needs us to do something for him in the meantime." When the limo turned the corner, Milius, who was also Perkinz Chilis, spoke up, "Ahead. Turn right, we’re going to have some words with the captains of that team.”

"Miss Linna, I remember that the purpose of your coming here is to find a certain organizational force or a certain person. Maybe the person you will meet soon can give you important clues."

"Thank you, Mr. Milius." Linna wanted to say more, but after taking the pistol returned by Hilarelli, she could no longer think of what she could say.

Cassia returned to the underground parking lot, and the captain and other team members remained vigilant, guarding the stairs and elevators. Going to the captain, he explained the general situation outside to the captain, relieving the pressure on them.

A large number of enemies were retreating in an orderly manner, leaving some people behind. The deaths of the two core members were not immediately known to them. It was only a minute or two before someone passed by the street and the intersection and discovered the bodies in the limousine and the burned vehicle.

Information must travel further afield quickly. Cassia didn't know how far "further" was. His intuition told him that the real commander was not at the scene and only knew the situation here through the radio. He still doesn't know the specific structure and personnel of the human trafficking network, and he has no definite answer as to whether this loss in Cresci will allow them to stop for a while.

Soon, a few more minutes passed. After Cassia saw that most of the enemy had evacuated, the city defense forces surrounded him from all sides. No. Even if the evacuees became the nominal criminals, they were the ones responsible for the incident. They were rounded up by the SADF and any slight resistance led to attacks.

In front of the militarized team, there were armored vehicles and heavy weapons. The remaining people had no strength to resist at all. They were left with the only option of running away desperately to get a small chance of survival.

Soon after, members of the Black Dragon Training Ground and the City Defense Force entered the entrance and exit of the underground parking lot. The loudspeaker first emitted a distorted sound, officially announcing the end of the incident.

With one of the core members still in a coma, and following the instructions from the loudspeaker, everyone disarmed and stood side by side. The captain coughed slightly at this time. He looked around and saw that the team members all nodded with understanding expressions to indicate what they should do after knowing what to do, and then they walked towards the exit together.

,,,,,,

"Let all members gather their hands and feet in the near future. Except for a few ongoing businesses, the rest of the network's business has been temporarily frozen. Your situation seems to be a bit dangerous. The other party knows that I am not in the alliance and is determined to act."

"I will notify several other allies and ask them to assign some people to assist you. It is considered protection, but also a continued in-depth investigation of that team. Afterwards, you should pay attention to receiving them well. After all, they are all adjutants or assistants. If the forces represented by that team continue to pursue you and several other core members of the network, they will directly cause friction with several other 'monsters'. They will definitely not continue."

"I know, boss." Aiqi looked happy.

"After the 'New Year's gifts' of the nobles have been processed here in the Cressi area, they will be completely discarded." The voice in the communication continued.

"I know, boss." Aiqi said in a serious tone.

After the communication ended, Aiqi on the highway finally breathed a sigh of relief: "A summary of the information, plus Ciccia Mandeville's information, was sent to those people..."
