Chapter 100-99- Fan Meeting
Because she didn't know the strength of this cyborg or what kind of equipment it had, Yvette didn't choose to use her magical abilities, but directly used her pure white tentacles.
This method used to deal with commander-level beings was used on human traffickers. For a moment, she felt a little sorry for her tentacles. It was really shameful.
But the effect was also very remarkable. Within a second, only a few "swish" sounds were heard, like the sharpest silk thread scratching through thin paper. Among the three human traffickers, two young men who looked like henchmen and had no major transformations on their bodies were pierced through the eyebrows on the spot and fell straight to the ground.
Only the cyborg was "lucky." Pure white tentacles precisely bypassed the core of his torso, severing his arms and legs, revealing the still-glowing magic circuits, magic wires, and icy mechanical structures within. Simultaneously, a thin layer of ice instantly covered half his face, silencing any potential screams.
The cyborg slammed to the ground with a thud, its heavy alloy limbs clattering against each other. His head lurched against the ground, his remaining cloudy eyes rolling upwards in confusion, as if trying to comprehend this drastic change. He couldn't understand why he had suddenly fallen, why his prosthetic limbs had suddenly stopped responding... What on earth had happened?
The room fell into a silence even more eerie than before. The three young "piglets" tied to the iron bed were all stunned.
Before, they thought that this pretty girl was doomed. She would suffer terrible humiliation in the hands of these demons. They even wanted to turn their heads away. But who could have expected that this silver-haired girl was actually a wizard with unfathomable strength. Before they could see clearly what happened, these human traffickers and the terrifying-looking cyborg were all killed instantly!
Who is she?
Why is she here?
How did she gain such terrifying strength? What was her purpose?
Could it be the federal special forces who came specifically to rescue them?
With their mouths sealed and their hands and feet cuffed, the three young victims could not speak for a while and could only watch nervously.
Yvette looked at them, thought for a moment, and said, "My name is Wuming. I'm a mercenary and a bounty hunter. I will save you, so don't panic. Stay calm."
After that, she used wind magic to tear off the seals on the eight people's mouths and continued to ask, "Does anyone know what year and day it is now?"
The closest person was a red-haired young man. After calming down, he said quickly, "It should be, yes, it's 2130... April 22nd... it should be!"
April of 2130, that would be the spring of the year following Agasa's dream? Luckily, the time difference wasn't that big...
Yvette hesitated for a moment, then heard the red-haired young man suddenly speak again, his tone filled with excitement and disbelief. "That... Miss Noname, are you Miss Noname? The hero who captured the werewolf killer and exposed the conspiracy of the big company?"
Yvette was slightly startled, letting out a very soft "Huh?" Although she had only been gone for a year, in reality, she had already spent more than a decade there. After a pause of several seconds, she nodded. "...It should be me, that's right."
"It really is that nameless lady! Oh my God! You're still alive! I'm your fan!" Now it wasn't just the red-haired young man, the other two victims, a high school student and a middle-aged man with a resolute face, also showed expressions of shock and joy.
After the Werewolf Killer incident, due to the outbreak of public dissatisfaction with large companies, larger-scale demonstrations were launched in the New Eden United States, which lasted for a full three months. It was known as the "Werewolf Storm" incident and was one of the biggest and most well-known international news in the entire New Eden United States in the past year.
After that incident, Lintui Bio's stock price was hit hard, and its market value evaporated by one-third. The retired founder "Old Cyrus" was forced to come back to take charge of the company and apologize to the public one after another.
Although the eight major companies are still the eight major companies, this ruthless move has pushed Lin Tui Biology from a top ranking among the original eight companies to the bottom of the list, where it is even lower than Gravity Group. The damage is indeed huge.
By the way, due to the disappearance of the key figure "Wuming" afterwards, many people speculated whether this mysterious hero was avenged by the unicorn creatures, otherwise why would he not show up for so long?
But who could have imagined that in this disgusting and hopeless prison of human traffickers, an unknown hero would appear like a god descending from the sky and save them from danger. The huge impact brought about by this dramatic reversal almost made the three people's brains stop working, and they almost fainted with ecstasy.
Of course, Yvette didn't know that the subsequent impact of this incident had expanded to that extent. She just thought it was just ordinary good luck and she met a few little fans who happened to know her.
She nodded slightly, her gaze returning to the cyborg lying on the ground, shredded into a human stick. After the trafficker gradually realized his situation and saw fear and panic in his eyes, she released the ice spell that was sealing his mouth and asked calmly, "Answer me, where else are people like them imprisoned?"
Rescuing victims kidnapped by human traffickers to the Rustbone Free State will earn you a reward from the federal government. Saving one person will earn you 100,000 credit points.
Since this time she started in the human traffickers' base, she planned to make it bigger and rescue everyone she could in the surrounding area. This also happened to fit in with her way of survival as a bounty hunter, and she could receive a large reward from the federal government.
Saving 10 people means 1 million yuan, which feels more efficient than doing mercenary orders...
"I... I won't tell!" Cyborg stiffened his neck, speaking in a timid voice. It was obvious that he had realized that he was not far from death. He might survive if he didn't tell, but he would definitely die if he did. "I'm telling you, the 'General' won't let me go... unless you guarantee that I can survive!"
"Then go to hell." Yvette didn't want to waste time talking to him, so she pierced his head with a wind blade, and then used the key on his waist to uncuff the three victims.
Afterwards, after some communication, Yvette learned the identities of the three victims.
The red-haired young man in the lead was called "Donnell Matt". When he was traveling in a border city with his girlfriend, he was tricked into a van and was controlled. Finally, he had no choice but to follow the human traffickers on the smuggling route and entered the Rustbone Free State.
The second young man was younger, named "Reese Bean". He was just a high school student. He believed the phishing information in the online forum and insisted on coming to Rusty Bone to make a lot of money despite being persuaded by countless people along the way. As a result, after meeting the contact, his passport was instantly snatched away. In just a few hours, he experienced the feeling of being beaten by society, which ordinary people would take many years to experience.
The third was a bit more unusual. Cromwell Hardy, an undercover reporter, was also a reasonably capable mage. His body had been infused with a set of activated runes from Black Tower Medicine, giving him approximately 200 points of mana. He could instantly cast low-mana-cost, medium-caliber combat spells, making him a fairly skilled individual in the mercenary world.
After being rescued, Cromwell immediately said to Yvette, "Miss Wuming, you must be careful. The handcuffs used by the traffickers here are not ordinary. They are all 'magic-proof handcuffs'. Once they are put on, all connections between magic and mental power will be severed."
Yvette nodded. The Magic-Suppressing Cuffs were a mage-killer and a unique technology of Lingman Company, using a special raw material. Using this, even if a skilled person tried to sneak into the camp, they would likely fail.
I don't know if the magic-forbidden handcuffs are effective against distorted magic...
She immediately looked at the three of them and said, "You all split up now and find out the locations of all the rooms where prisoners are being held in this building. Keep a low profile and don't expose yourself. I'll go upstairs and check to see if I can capture the leader here."
"Are you going alone?"
"Isn't it too dangerous?"
Hearing this, Donnell and Reese screamed almost at the same time, looking uneasy.
Cromwell, who had a wider range of knowledge, also looked over with concern. After observing along the way, he found that all the human traffickers here had been transformed into cyborgs and were equipped with heavy firepower weapons. They were no longer gangs, but warlords. Even the cyborg lying on the ground was just an ordinary member of the group.
Even an unknown hero who once arrested a werewolf killer would never be able to break up this terrifying human trafficking den that hides high-standard weapons on his own.
Their only correct choice now is to escape quickly before the situation here is discovered, and then ask for help from the federal government!
