She is a cry...
Chapter 165: The Wound of the Blazing Sun (Thanks to the leader of stupid Qingkong's dog Xiu Jin)
In the dark underground, in a cage, a young man in black was tied inside, one hand was handcuffed to the cage, and in the other corner of the room, a burly man with short gray hair was sitting in front of a computer terminal, constantly typing on the keyboard, and then a large amount of data flashed across the screen.
The room was dull and quiet, and only the sound of typing could be heard. The young man in black shirt sat with his head down, as if he had no strength left.
As the burly man typed, more and more data appeared on the screen, and then the progress bar slowly moved forward until it was completely unlocked and the encrypted content appeared, including a large amount of professional data, formulas, drawings, and illustrations.
"This... is really amazing..." He was sure that this was the patent information he needed to find.
However, he soon realized the risk of continuing to watch, stopped the screen, and then turned it off.
After entering the decrypted data into a memory card, he pulled out the card and inserted it into the slot on his chest, then stood up and walked to the cage.
"Yes, what you gave is indeed real." He looked at the exhausted young man in the cage, nodded slightly after confirming that he was still alive, then picked up the equipment beside the room and put on his coat and hat again.
"Aren't you going to kill me?" Looking at the burly man who was about to leave, a weak voice came from the cage.
"Kill you?" The burly man suddenly felt interesting and funny, but he didn't have time to explain at this moment, because he had received the alarm outside.
"Just complete the task, I won't do anything extra." After saying that, he left the room and walked quickly into the underground passage beside.
After opening the steel fence door underground, a black hover motorcycle stopped beside the entrance. He rode on it and started it. Light blue flames gushed out of the nozzle, and then took him to the deep cave.
Less than a minute after he left, three fully armed members of the office blew up the entrance to the basement and jumped in. They looked around with pistols raised, and then found the person trapped in the cage.
"The target has been found, confirmed alive, no other personnel."
"Received, search the surroundings, ask about the target's situation."
"Yes."
Then, the office member stepped forward, cut open the cage with an ion dagger, and took out Grid.
"What happened, where is the person who captured you?" The office member wearing a tactical helmet scanned Grid's body and found that he had many hidden injuries, some of which were soft tissue damage, and some places were broken into small pieces of bones.
"He got the patent information from me and took it away." Grid said in a vague tone.
"Where did the other party escape from?"
"The underground water channel."
After that, the office members looked at each other, and one of them immediately rushed to the underground channel.
"Report to the captain, things have changed. The target's data has been obtained by the opponent and has left through the underground passage."
"Chase immediately. Let the fourth team drive the shuttle aircraft into the underground passage. You blow up the entrance in advance."
"Received."
Soon, after a burst of explosions, the entrance to the basement was completely blown up. Then, in less than a minute, three two-person hovercrafts drove into the underground passage and began to track based on the heat source residue in the air.
"The opponent's escape time is no more than three minutes. It is still possible to pursue." A member reported the results of the AI scanning analysis.
"Speed up! In addition, bring the target up and prepare to leave."
"Although he is no longer the first in the mission, he still has a lot of value."
"Received."
Then a member of the office injected Grid with a mid-level emergency healing potion, then put him on a hovercraft and began to climb away.
However, before they took off and rose, a steel-gray figure jumped out of the woods and grabbed Grid on the hovercraft.
"Bang! Bang!"
The electromagnetic pistol opened directly, and the bullets bounced on the steel-gray figure's body, and some sparks appeared.
However, such an attack did not penetrate the opponent's armor. After rushing towards the hovercraft, he grabbed the firing pistol and crushed it, then punched out, directly knocking the office member away and taking away the semi-conscious Grid.
"The troublemaker was found, and he has captured the target." A member reported while firing.
"The second group will follow up and take the target back. The first and fourth groups will hunt down the people who took the information, and the third group will stop the security forces in the Sala Tree area."
"Received."
Soon, two hovercrafts each carrying four members rushed towards Valk who was holding Grid. They stopped shooting at this time, but took out the simple lightsabers they carried with them.
A blue particle stream rushed out, and six lightsabers lit up in the air, and then slashed at Valk who was retreating on the ground with his men.
Valk looked at the lightsaber getting closer and closer, his pupils shrank, and he put down Grid beside him for the time being, then put his fist at his waist. In these few seconds, it seemed as if time had suddenly slowed down. A lot of heat overflowed from the gaps in his armor, and there were even traces of burning on the edges. Then he threw a punch.
The powerful fist pressure was gathered in a narrow passage by the ability of his extraordinary job, and it burst out in an instant like a cannon.
"The pressure of the scorching sun!"
After the red-hot fist was thrown out, his fist, arm, and shoulders formed a straight line, and his whole body seemed to shake in an instant, with a dislocation of afterimages. Then the exploding fist pressure instantly pierced the oncoming hovercraft, and the various parts in the central part that were shattered and splashed melted in the heat flow, and then scattered, hitting the surrounding Sala Tree Mountain, burning out curls of green smoke.
The four people who were originally on the hovercraft were also blown away in the bombardment, and most of their bulletproof vests were burned. Some crashed into tree trunks, some were thrown high up and fell, and some rolled on the ground for more than ten rounds before gradually coming to a stop.
The four people on the hovercraft on the other side were shocked by the scene before them, and their lightsabers slowed down a bit, and they were frightened.
After retracting his strength, Valk's eyes suddenly turned back. The armor on his right hand had been burned and melted, revealing the thick knuckles and fist underneath. The orange-red metal dripped from his fingertips, burning a little smoke in the grass, but he himself was unaware of it, and his fingers were intact.
This genius favored by the Edes Academy was definitely not an ornamental plant in the garden.
Although Valk and the members of the agency who were carrying out the mission were all Sequence 4, the gap between them was a world of difference. Sequence 4 was the end point for these members of the agency, but for him, it was just the beginning.
Resisting the shock in their hearts, the remaining four members of the agency continued to rush towards Valk. When they were about to get close, they suddenly jumped up, abandoned the hovercraft under them, and continued to rush towards Valk. Then the four of them rushed towards Valk with lightsabers.
Another punch was thrown, directly smashing the aircraft that hit him into pieces, turning it into melted parts and fragments, and the four took advantage of this gap to attack successfully.
The rushing lightsaber slashed at the steel-gray armor, splashing intense sparks, and the high-energy and fragmented explosive particles continuously impacted and melted the outer layer of the armor, and the molten metal and white steam rose.
Then, a pair of thick giant hands stretched out from the steaming white steam and directly grasped the wrist holding the lightsaber.
"Crack..." The sound of bones breaking.
The wrist and finger bones were twisted into unnatural shapes after being grasped by the giant hand, and the lightsaber in it also fell to the ground, losing the supply of magic power and dimming.
"Ahhhhh——"
The severe pain made the foreheads of the two office members sweat rapidly, and their bodies collapsed and knelt down, losing the ability to fight.
The remaining two office members looked at each other and swung their swords again, but this time they were on the left and the right, supplying all their magic power to the lightsabers, and the azure blue surged, piercing Valk's waist.
Stabbing is always the strongest attack method of the sword. The particle flow that breaks through a point with all its strength breaks through the armor like a hot knife cutting tofu, penetrates Valk's waist, and emerges from behind him.
"Ah, hey!" Valk did not fall down in the severe pain, but a fierce golden light burst out of his pupils. He stretched out his hand again, grasped the arms of the two, twisted them, and then threw them out.
After losing the supply, the two lightsabers went out and rolled to the ground, while Valk half-knelt on the ground, with steam coming out of the wound on his waist, and there was a burnt hole in it.
If it were an ordinary person, such an injury would have long been dead, but as an extraordinary person of the Light Feather Sequence, he has a strong healing ability, and the wound on his body is slowly healing. However, such a horrible wound, even if the surface is healed, does not mean that he can recover to his previous intact state.
Valk, who has lost the ability to move, supported himself on the ground, panting violently, and his body under the armor was already sweaty. At this time, other members of the "Raincoat Office" also rushed over.
They did not approach rashly at this time, but first rescued the teammates who had just been injured, and began to report to their superiors.
"Fuck, how stupid!" The captain's voice seemed to have uncontrollable anger, and it was unclear whether he was saying that Valk was stupid or that his own team members were irrational.
"Take Grid away. Don't worry about Valk, the troublemaker. Don't hurt him any more."
"Got it."
Then two hooks suddenly fired, grabbing Grid lying on the ground and preparing to drag him away, but Valk still managed to hold the ropes with his hands, and the high temperature emerged, melting them.
After that, the members of the office tried several times in succession, but still failed, and now time is running out.
A large number of alarms came from a distance, including armed riot police from the South District 1 and elite support troops from the "White and Blue House".
"Retreat!"
After receiving the order, the members of the "Yuyi Office" retreated in an orderly manner. They took away all the wounded and some key equipment, leaving only a mess of battlefield ruins.
As long as they were not caught on the spot by the police, the follow-up would be a lawsuit and a fight between the lawyers of the office and the sheriff's department. Although this breakthrough seemed to have caused a lot of damage and made a lot of noise, the "Raincoat Agency" as a professional agent was very measured in carrying out the mission and did not harm any of the original personnel in the Sala Tree area. Even some pets raised by the rich were carefully avoided and not harmed.
This resulted in a seemingly serious public security incident, but in the end, only compensation for the damage to the facilities and some mental damages was required, and it could not be classified as a criminal case.
Of course, the only exception was Valk. In fact, the members of the agency did not expect to take such a heavy hand at the beginning. Their goal was to complete the client's task, not to kill innocent people at will and cause trouble for themselves.
Trouble means losing money, which means a decline in revenue or even losing money. This is a taboo for all agencies.
But Valk was too powerful in the action of blocking the agency. His performance at the time shocked and frightened the members who were carrying out the mission, which led to them not caring about it in a hurry, which caused heavy damage.
This was due to the mistakes made by the members of the "Raincoat Office" in an emergency, and also due to Valk's lack of combat experience. Although he grew up in the slums and had experienced many fights and even various underhanded assassinations, it was the first time he faced a high-tech and expensive weapon like a lightsaber, and he was not prepared in advance.
After the members of the "Raincoat Office" left, six high-speed hovercrafts carrying the elite troops of the "White and Blue House" arrived, and armed personnel in blue and white exoskeleton armor jumped out of them. They quickly swept through the Sala tree area and kept approaching the scene of the incident.
Soon after, three police cars also arrived with twenty riot control units. Finally, the two parties gathered in front of the damaged house and found Valk and Grid who had lost their ability to move in the woods outside the courtyard.
The two were arrested, first checked, and sent to the nearest hospital after their identities were confirmed.
Among them, Valk began to receive the best treatment after his identity was confirmed, while Grid was taken away by the police after a simple treatment and imprisoned. He will face many prosecutions and the most dangerous "federal resident identity verification", which means that if his federal resident identity verification fails, he will lose his "human rights", and his life and death will no longer be recorded in the archives, and there will be no media coverage.
The next afternoon, Valk was still lying in the hospital, and at this time the teachers of Edes Academy had already arrived. In the office on the side of the ward, the representative of the academy, Teacher Sima, was negotiating with the attending physician.
Nameplate: Leacock von Clemens, Withering Sequence 6, Senior Scar Attending Physician
The doctor with silver-rimmed glasses was tall and thin, wearing a white coat, and a silver sage nameplate on his chest, with his name and code below.
"I understand Mr. Sima's anxiety and the importance that Edes Academy attaches to him, but unfortunately, based on my professional experience, even if Valk can recover, there will still be some obstacles in the nerve connection of his lower body."
"With the current technology, it is not difficult to restore him to the level of a normal person without affecting his life." "
But you also know that if he holds himself to the standards of a warrior among the extraordinary, these obstacles will be magnified in the ever-changing battle, greatly reducing his strength."
"I'm sorry, we can't eliminate this sequelae. Healing and repair are not omnipotent. This is the regret and imperfection of life." His voice was particularly cold. As a doctor, he had seen too many similar things and had long lost his emotional ups and downs.
"Is there no possibility at all? Will there be special people or means in other hospitals in South District 1? Don't worry, as long as Valk can be cured, Edes Academy will not be stingy in rewarding you."
"Other means..." The attending doctor shook his head. He understood this anxiety, but as an expert in this field, how could he not know the means in the industry? Even the best hospital in South District 1 would get the same answer.
The healing of the Light Feather Sequence is essentially to promote a significant increase in the individual's healing ability, while the healing of the Withering Sequence is like a scalpel, accurately removing the diseased parts of the disease. The two work together to be invincible, but even so, they are not flawless.
It's like removing the diseased insects on the trunk of a tree, and then letting the wood fiber grow to fill the gap. Although it is filled, the internal texture is not as neat and flawless as the natural one.
This small flaw will not affect the lives of ordinary people, so most people will not notice it, but it is different for high-level extraordinary people who care about every little bit.
"I think you may suggest that he change his direction. Even if he can't become an excellent warrior, he can make achievements in other fields." The attending doctor shook his head and then answered.
"There are many extraordinary professions, such as healers, cultivators, heart protectors, mystics, etc., which do not require high agility in the lower body, and this will not affect his future achievements."
...
After asking without getting the answer he hoped for, Sima finally took a deep breath and sighed.
"I see, thank you for your advice, and I will report and negotiate with the school board later." After that, he picked up the hat beside him and put it on.
"In the next few days, please take care of Valk." After that, he turned around and said goodbye.
I'm late, (._.) I'm sorry~
Thank you to the leader of stupid Qingkong's dog Xiu Jin (how can there be a person with such a name)
