Chapter 372 Stealth Escape
"Boom", three mechanical spiders were swallowed up by blue flames at the same time, and exploded under the high temperature. After the flames, only a few metal legs were left on the ground creaking and twitching. Under the hood, Mia's face was cold. , flicked the small jade wand, and put the wand back into the wide cuffs.

"Macajron."

"Safe ahead."

"Saph?"

"Eleven 70 meters away, and two big ones."

"Contact time."

"Detouring, expected to arrive in one minute and five seconds."

"Let's go." Shuer waved his hand and signaled the team to move quickly, "Moria."

"Hey, leave the big one to me."

"Yes." Shuer nodded and said, "Safu will deal with the small ones quickly. Follow up immediately."

"Yes."

"Hurry up." After giving the order, he turned around and found that someone actually stopped to tie his shoelaces. Xiuer kicked him directly, "Whatever shoelace you tie, you must have the awareness of credit points."

"Wow, uncle, are you really not a barbarian from the military?"

"Does the military understand the importance of credits as well as I do?"

"Absolutely not. Uncle is the most money-hungry I have ever met. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, the person who has the deepest understanding of the meaning of credit. He is indeed a profiteer in the black market."

"Well said, but the word profiteer is a bit redundant. And you, what are you looking at? Have you never seen such a confident businessman?" Shuer seemed to have transformed into an evil slave owner, just whipping people from behind. , "Hurry up, you mobile credits, who dares to cause me to lose income, be careful I save you and then beat you to death again."

It had been a few hours since we met the teenagers. The lights in the city were dim, the sky was already whitening, and the alleys were getting darker. Under the cover of shadows, the group of people quickly shuttled through the streets and alleys, avoiding the machinery. The hunt for beasts.

The battle in the city is not over yet. According to the judgment of the girl Delia, most of the blocks have not been completely lost. Although humans are at a comprehensive disadvantage, the military's armored soldiers still cleared the bunkers in time and protected at least half of the citizens.However, there are still large areas of streets and buildings that have been captured by mechanical beasts. The wandering mechanical beasts have brought considerable obstacles to the team's evacuation. Of course, the shadow chasers have no problem, but other local humans are still very fragile. If you are not careful, Maybe a few people will die. This is all the credit points agreed upon. I couldn't bring them out alive. With Xiuer's professional ethics, the money received... well, it is definitely impossible to spit it out.

The team has grown a lot. When Shuuer and his party lurked into the neighborhood that Delia called the middle-class district, the number of survivors in the team increased from four to thirteen, excluding several low-level employees of municipal agencies. , and some low-level civilians in the military.

The lower-level employees of these municipal agencies are not subordinate to the first four bureaucrats, but they are clearly hierarchical. The six lower-level employees are submissive in front of the four, not even daring to breathe.The three low-level civil servants in the military are relatively natural since there are no high-level officials. However, judging from the situation of the municipal organization, it is estimated that the boundaries between superiors and subordinates are also quite strict.

The two sides are relatively friendly, well, although they throw cold eyes and mean words at each other from time to time, at least they can get along with each other, and even occasionally help each other, but it's different for the five teenagers, they don't even want to talk to them Talk more, as if saying more words will pollute yourself.

On the other hand, the attitude of the survivors toward Shuuer and his group of seven is worth pondering. They were polite to every shadow chaser, but there was an obvious sense of alienation in their politeness. Of course, it can be understood that they need the shadow chasers. They had to remain polite on the surface, but everyone could see that this politeness and alienation were not against their will. It was their original attitude. Especially the four middle-level people who were first rescued, they were still polite at first. Mia was dissatisfied, but since she thought she had guessed the identities of Xiu Er and the others, her attitude has changed significantly. Not only did she obediently pay the money without any sense of restraint, she no longer resisted, and even questioned whether the Shadow Chasers were capable. There is no question about protecting their safety.

It seems that this mysterious black market is not just a simple trading organization, hahahaha.

Xiure let out a deep laugh, attracting many horrified looks. Is this trader leader perhaps crazy, or has he come up with another way to cheat money? Otherwise, why would he laugh so horribly?
"Sure." Safu, who had already caught up, quickly made a few gestures.

"Stop." Shuer raised his hand to stop the team and stared at a large building in the distance warily, "About how many?"

"Can't hear clearly, but there are many, very many." Saff lowered his head in shame, as if it was a shame that he couldn't tell whether there were one thousand or two thousand enemies inside.

"Stand up your chest." Bang bang, Shuuer punched Safu lightly on the chest, "Be confident, don't look like you are so cowed." Oh, damn leather armor, it has no feel at all, Shuuer He curled his lips regretfully and quickly took a few steps to hide on the other side of the survivor. It was so dangerous. If he hid too late, this guy would go berserk, right?Not really?
Of course not. The shame in the public eye did make the female swordsman blush. However, with her watery eyes, rapid breathing, and flaring nose, well, there must be something strange awakened.

"Ahem, credit... No, I mean, everyone, please pay attention." Xiuer coughed a few times and quickly changed the subject, "Everyone concentrates, including you little guys, come here, I won't eat you. There are more than a thousand mechanical puppets hidden in that building. Please shut up, okay? If anyone dares to speak out again, I will throw him in to explore the way. Very good, you don’t have to worry about being seen through the wall, as long as If everyone doesn't make a sound, we can..."

"But they have thermal imaging cameras."

"What did I just say?" Xiure glared at Delia fiercely, and slapped the girl on the back of the head. The little guy held his head, pouted and stared at Xiure angrily, but he was quite cool. Be good and stop talking.

"Of course I know they have thermal imaging cameras." You know what the heck, the teammates are too lazy to say anything. You are the captain and you have the final say. We still want to be shameless, so I won't say anything. "That's why I put you Call over and focus, Mia.”

"temperature range."

"The ambient temperature is about 21 degrees, and it should not rise more than two degrees."

"It's a bit difficult. They can't stand it. I'll try another method." Since Mia didn't want to test the bottom line of the integration of divine power in front of others, she chose to sing silently. After forming countless magic seals with her hands in the robe, Kneel down on one knee and hit the ground with your palms. The dim light flashed away, and then everyone felt that the surroundings were getting hotter. Before long, some sweat started to appear on their foreheads.

"The energy is isolated in one direction, and the heat cannot be dissipated. It should not alert the enemy." The shadow chasers didn't know what the thermal imager was, and they couldn't ask casually, but this did not prevent them from understanding the function from the name, "But the action It needs to be fast, because the isolation range is relatively small, and the heat inside will accumulate more and more. If the speed is slow, either someone will suffer from dehydration and heatstroke, or too much energy will begin to leak out."

"You hear me? It's not like being fucked by a roasted adult. Just go faster, but don't make any noise, I...xxx." Shuer suddenly rushed forward, blocking an idiot's kick that almost hit a discarded metal can on the roadside. He didn't dare curse loudly anymore, but he had other options, such as raising a finger.

No way, I will be fined [-] credit points. Under the gloating eyes of the military personnel, this poor guy’s face is full of despair. My God, I’ve been cheated of four months’ salary before and after. Did I take the initiative? It's much more satisfying to rush into a herd of mechanical beasts.

Of course, this was just self-mockery in the midst of suffering. The team was still moving quickly in silence. The rescued survivors had many questions in their minds, but now was obviously not a good place to ask questions. They could only keep their doubts in their hearts for the time being. No, just leave it behind because now my heart is filled with tension.

The closer they got to the target building, the more nervous the survivors became. They were just non-combatants, but they did not have the psychological quality of the Shadow Chasers. They were already tortured by psychological pressure and could hardly walk. Some of the women, in particular, looked pale. , the calf is trembling.

"Shoo, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, everybody, everyone, try to walk as softly as you can, but there's still the sound of tiny footsteps echoing all the time, and there's silence all around, and only the sound of gunfire in the distance can be heard faintly.The quiet environment makes the sound of footsteps particularly noticeable, and each sound is like a death knell in the hearts of survivors.

Shuer looked at Saff as a signal, and Saff shook his head, indicating that the puppets inside had not moved yet. It must be because they were separated by the wall, and the sound of this level was not enough to alarm them.

However, just because it won't alert the enemies in the building doesn't mean it won't alert others. Just as I walked nervously past the target building, a red light suddenly started flashing in the corner on one side.

What's this?Doubts immediately arose in the minds of the Shadow Chasers.

The rapid flashing red light often symbolizes an ominous omen, especially if it suddenly lights up when the team is passing by, either early or late, it must have triggered something, an alarm?Or a defensive trap?
The red light flashed faster and faster, and the top of a small cylinder less than ten centimeters high flashed, rushing out from the corner. The tires below turned faster and faster, and the distance got closer and closer.

"Self-propelled mine." A survivor of the military suppressed the urge to scream and let out a low cry. At the same time, he threw himself to the ground. Not only him, but his other two colleagues also made the same mistake with him. Same action.

will explode.

Although they didn't know what the mines were, their actions said it all. This was a standard action to mitigate explosion damage.

"Damn, this is really troublesome." Shuer shouted in a low voice, "Mia, Bing."
