Recombinant demigod genes

Chapter 18

Garedel was not in a hurry, but stopped to set up a tent for repairs when he was approaching the western region.

The explanation he gave to Aquis was that resting now is for better fighting at night, and the bounty target doesn't know where to hide during the day.

And Aiquith tended to look for his traces during the day, but the people who led the way stopped, so he could only sit down and rest.Opened the backpack, took out the baguette and started eating...

The others gnawed on the dry bean bread, and they had to drink a little water to swallow every mouthful. Seeing Aiquis gulping down the soft bread, drooling, they seemed to want a piece of the pie.

Aquis was not used to being stared at for food, so he had to distribute two baguettes to each of them, and after the distribution, there were only three left in his pocket...

Aiquith sighed, feeling a little worthless.

After eating the bread in his hand, he ate another one, but it could only be used as a snack to fill his stomach slightly, and the remaining two were kept for the night to satisfy his hunger.

Aiquith was going to find a shade to lie down for a while, but when he looked around, he found that there was not even a single tree except piles of grass, so it was a good place to camp with a good view.

Just when Aiquith was in trouble, Garedel offered to give Aiquith his tent to thank Aiquith for the bread distributed.

And Garredel was huddled with another person in a larger tent.

When dusk fell, the sound of more than a dozen footsteps outside the tent woke everyone up, and they immediately climbed out of the tent to check the situation.

The people who came were from the western region to ask for help from other places, and Garedel was talking with them.

At the edge of the crowd, Aquis saw a familiar figure, Skywalker 18.

And No. 18 seemed to notice Aiquith's gaze and turned to look at him, then froze for a moment, as if he didn't expect to see Aiquith here.

She looked around for a while, and walked towards Aquis without finding the person she was looking for, and asked

"Just you? Where's Clutter?"

"He can't come here because of something, and I will replace him here to help. But you, how did you come here? Was it invited by them?"

Number 18 was a little irritable, because she came here for a reason, and since Clutter didn't come, she could only ask Aquis for help.

"I have a mission and I have to come."

Aiquith didn't care, and said perfunctorily, "Then you are really unlucky."

"Do you know the information about the reward target?"

This sentence aroused Aquis's interest. Having information is equivalent to carrying a lamp forward in the dark. Without information, one can only grope and walk slowly in the dark.

Aquis looked at No. 18 seriously, and he realized that there was something else hidden in it.

"I don't know, I wanted to go to the security here to see the reward announcement, but they don't seem to plan to enter the security zone. What do you know? You want me to do this again?"

Number 18 dragged Aquis to a distance for a conversation.

"It was the third experimental group that sent me to extract the genes of the bounty target. I only need to extract his genes, and the bounty belongs to you."

"You want the two of us to work together?"

"Yes. According to the company's records, the experimental code of the reward target: Night Watcher 21. I don't know which genetic agent was used for the third mutation, and it has the function of flying."

"Also, all the people who were killed had been bloodletted. The dismemberment was just to cover up this information. I don't know why he did it. It may be that his third mutation may not have been successful and required a lot of blood. "

This information made Aquis gasp. The ability to act at night alone would be difficult to deal with, and with the addition of flying, he was almost invincible.

No wonder the western region has been rampant for so long.

Aiquith considered some effective long-range weapons, bows, crossbows, meteor cables, throwing knives, and javelins.

The accuracy of bows and crossbows at night is difficult to say, and the power may not be enough. The range of the meteor cable is large but the speed is slow. Throwing knives and javelins are better. bullet.

"What ability does he have?"

No. 18 folded his hands and looked at the crowd in the distance, trying to remember this
"Strong night vision, which also limited his ability to move during the day, his whole body is covered with tough scales, and the claws on his hands can release poison."

Speaking of claws, Aquis stretched out his claws to look at them, then retracted them, thinking why it would be great if his claws could also release toxins.

As the sun went down, everyone began to enter the western region.

They came outside the forest where they had last seen Night's Watch 21, and began grouping.

Most of the people clamored to form a team with Skywalker No. 18, but No. 18 was not interested in them who had no strength at all, so they dragged Aiquith into the forest.

After getting out of everyone's sight, Aquis pulled No. 18 out of the forest and came to the hillside on the left side of the forest.

Aquis pointed to the crowd still standing in front of the forest and said

"According to what they said, Night Watcher No. 21 disappeared after running into the forest. According to my inference, he should have used the forest to block the view of his pursuers and then flew away from the forest. In the dark forest, It's hard to notice what's flying through the sky."

"The left side of the forest is the hillside where we are standing. Behind the hillside is a plain full of short grass mounds, few trees, and no place to hide."

"To the right of the forest is a lake. Flying over the lake is easy to spot even at night."

Finally, Aquis pointed to the snow-capped mountains in the distance on the left

"In this way, the only place he can go is at the end of the forest, at the snow mountain in front of the left. Just dig a hole or find a cave on the snow mountain, hide in it and block the hole with snow. It is almost impossible to be found gone."

No. 18 raised her fair almond face and stared at Aquis's eyes that were as deep as ancient wells on the profile face, which looked so bright and penetrating under the moonlight.

Realizing that No. 18 was not responding to his analysis, Aquis urged. "What do you think?"

Number 18 blinked her starry eyes and looked around.

"I'm not sure, listen to you, first go to the snow mountain to have a look."

The two quickly moved towards the snow mountain.

When they were about to reach the snow-capped mountains, they slowed down and began to discuss the battle plan.

The plan is that one person will act as a bait in the open and the other will carry out a sneak attack secretly.

But who is in the dark and who is in the dark, there is a disagreement. Aquis has eyes that can see through the darkness, and can easily avoid the attack of the night watchman 21; Selected target.

During the dispute, Aiquith was picked up by No. 18, who was shorter than himself, holding his chest with one hand, and he could only surrender with both hands┗(▔.▔)┛

"Okay, listen to you, you go to be the bait."

No. 18 acted as a bait and walked outside the forest, and Aquis followed behind in the forest, cutting six javelins with a knife; five on his back and one in his hand.

These javelins are mainly used to attack Vigil 21's wings, rendering him unable to fly.

When he reached the end of the forest, he still didn't meet Night Watcher 21.

Seeing No. 18 going further and further away, Aquis hesitated whether to walk out of the forest and follow.

If Night Watcher 21 has been watching this nearby, if he goes out now, the previous plan will be in vain.

Aquis could only warn himself that he must be patient. He found the tallest tree around, climbed to the top of the tree, and looked around No. 18 and the sky.

When No. 18 was about to disappear from sight, finally, Aiquith saw a strange shadow flying up, and he couldn't help but muttered to himself: The praying mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind.

Aquis jumped down from the treetop and chased after him. Looking at the black shadow flying farther and farther away, he felt worried for the first time about his lack of strength.

Born in peace and death in sorrow, Aquis began to reflect on himself, did he live too comfortably during this time?

After running for a long distance, he could clearly see the figure of No. 18 and the gargoyle-like black shadow in the sky.
