Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 730 The Best Killers

While hesitating about what to do next, the woman had already walked a few steps closer to the two of them, and stretched out her hand straight to him.

Kong Zhe frowned, took a step back, and subconsciously touched his waist with his right hand, ready to take out the Apocalypse Sword at any time to parry the opponent's attack.

The reason why he hasn't done anything at this moment is just that he still has some expectations for Lei Yun. After all, he is a great elder, and he hopes that he can calm down this matter by relying on his right to speak.

Otherwise, it would be the worst outcome for both of them if they really started fighting here.

It's just that, seeing the woman's hand getting closer and closer, the target was still heading straight for his chest, but Lei Yun still didn't make any sign.

Kong Zhe's heart sank, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, his fingers touched the ring, and the magic power gradually began to condense in his palm.

"and many more!"

Just a second before Kong Zhe was about to explode, Lei Yun suddenly made a sound, and stretched out his hand to block him.

Following his voice, the woman's movements froze for a moment, and the magic power that Kong Zhe had condensed just now dissipated.

Kong Zhe frowned. At this moment, he finally saw something was wrong.

The woman's hand didn't seem to be heading towards his heart, but...

The...cigarette case in his coat pocket?
"I said, isn't that good?"

The woman's fingers had already reached into her pocket and touched the corner of the cigarette case.But Lei Yun, with an obviously painful expression, stretched out his hand to support the woman's wrist, preventing her from taking out the cigarette case.

"Shrine, tobacco is strictly prohibited... and, the smell of smoke is confirmed... so... confiscated!"

The woman spoke every word, although the enunciation was clear, but it gave people a very mechanical feeling.

"This...you smelled it wrong."

Lei Yun couldn't help scratching his head, pointed to himself, and said with a wry smile: "The smell of smoke is from me, it's none of his business!"

The woman was obviously taken aback when she heard the words, she turned her head to look at Lei Yun, sniffed in Lei Yun's direction seriously, and nodded quickly.

"Odor source, confirm..."

The woman turned her head, paused, and stretched out her hand to Kong Zhe's pocket again: "...so, confiscated!"

"No no, isn't that right?"

The corner of Lei Yun's eyes twitched, and he grabbed the woman's wrist directly.

He scratched his head with a headache, and then explained to the woman in a serious manner: "Look, I smoked the cigarettes, but it wasn't the box in his pocket, so even if it was confiscated, I would take it from me, and it has nothing to do with him! And as for my cigarettes..."

Lei Yun spread out his hands, with an innocent expression on his face: "Sorry, I've run out of draws, so there's nothing for you to collect here, understand?"

"Oh, that's it, I see..."

The woman was obviously stunned for a few seconds when she heard the words, and then she nodded seriously: "That is to say, tobacco, confiscated!"

Lei Yun: "..."

The two are still arguing about this issue, while Kong Zhe at the side is already dumbfounded.

He saw with his own eyes that Lei Yun took the trouble to explain the truth to the woman, and explained the rules about the ownership and confiscation of tobacco bit by bit.

The two argued for a few minutes, and Lei Yun finally turned the woman's corner.

"Yes, this subordinate understands. But even if you are the Great Elder, please stop smoking in the future, otherwise you will be punished according to the rules!"

The woman bowed her head to Lei Yun and said with a blank expression.

"Understood, I won't smoke anymore, you can continue to work, I'll watch over here..."

Lei Yun exhaled, waved his hands casually and said.

"Yes."

The woman nodded, took a few steps back, turned and left the spot, and patrolled in another direction.

"Hey, I said..."

It wasn't until the woman walked away that Kong Zhe breathed a sigh of relief, and then he turned serious and asked Lei Yun in a low voice.

"After a long time, you just for a pack of cigarettes?"

"Of course."

Lei Yun leaned against the wall and nodded indifferently.At this moment, the tension on his face was no longer there.

"Of course?"

Seeing Lei Yun's relaxed expression, Kong Zhe couldn't help but get angry.

You must know that he was really frightened by Lei Yun's nervous expression just now, and he was almost about to make a move.If Lei Yun yelled a little slower for a tenth of a second, he assured that the matter had already reached an irreversible point.

In the end, it was only because of a pack of cigarettes that the tense situation was caused in the end?
"It's just a pack of cigarettes. Wouldn't it be over if you just let her take it away? You actually started arguing with her?"

"How could it be possible for her to take it away!"

Lei Yun glanced at Kong Zhe, and shook his head seriously: "What I gave you is not just ordinary cigarettes!"

"Oh? What? Does this smoke have any special effects?" Kong Zhe frowned.

"Ah."

Lei Yun nodded and explained in a serious manner: "This is a cigarette specially provided by the organization. It tastes pure and has a strong refreshing effect. It is not comparable to those from the outside world. And after the smoking ban, this kind of cigarette has been discontinued. , I don’t have much left, every box is my treasure, how could someone take it away so easily?”

"Having said so much, isn't it just a box of ordinary cigarettes?"

"Is it normal there?"

Lei Yun seemed to be extremely persistent on this issue. Kong Zhe argued with him for a while, but found that they were playing the piano against the cow.

In the end, he didn't bother to discuss such boring issues anymore. No matter what, it was a bit dangerous just now, but in the end he got through it safely.

He sighed and turned his head to look in the direction of the woman just now.

The woman with the knife had already walked away, looking around while walking, as if she was on patrol.

"So, this woman...is a robot?"

In fact, Kong Zhe has already seen that this woman is not a living person. Although her appearance, skin, and even breathing are exactly the same as a real person, her movements are still too stiff.

Some basic human behaviors cannot be restored simply by imitating dead objects.Kong Zhe has some research on the human body because of his learning of magic. It may be easy to be misled when he is far away, but as long as he is close, it is easy to see the subtle difference.

However, what really surprised him was that this woman gave him a very powerful feeling.When she approached him just now, especially when her hand was pressed on the knife, he immediately felt a strong sense of crisis.

It was a feeling as if he was being regarded as a prey, as if as long as he dared to make any resistance, the woman would draw the knife without hesitation and cut him in two in an instant.

This kind of deterrence can never be achieved by anyone.

At least, none of the capable killers in the audience at this moment could compare to the sense of crisis this woman brought him.

"It's not a robot... it's... a puppet!"

"puppet?"

Kong Zhe was stunned for a moment, subconsciously thinking of the puppets that Long once made.As an alchemist, the dragon usually controls golem puppets to fight.

It's just that although the puppets made by the dragon are powerful in combat, they still can't get rid of many puppets' characteristics in appearance, such as wooden teeth and metal skin.

This is not surprising. After all, things like puppets are handmade by the creators. In order to ensure the combat ability, it is normal for the shape to be a little rough.

But the puppet in front of him is somewhat unbelievable in terms of restoration speed.It is said to be a puppet, but it is more like a product of some kind of high technology.

"It is naturally impossible to make such a perfect puppet with manpower alone. She was made by a person in the organization called a puppet master."

Lei Yun exhaled, and explained: "The puppets made by this person are very advanced, their hearing and smell are far superior to ordinary people, their eyesight is comparable to radar scanning, and they can think independently. As long as you set the program, you can handle it. Most of the cases. Therefore, this puppet master was placed in the position of the garrison captain, and usually mainly controls the puppet to be responsible for the security work in the city. Naturally, it is inevitable to send a puppet to an important meeting site like today."

"Also, don't underestimate the role of this puppet. Speaking of it, this puppet master may not have strong combat power, but each of his puppets is a bit scary."

Lei Yun shook his head, and said solemnly: "The puppet just now is the proud work of that puppet master, and there are four other puppet that were co-made with her, which are called 'swords, bows, spears and halberds' respectively. The five puppets are all made from the bones of the dead elders in the organization. Each of them has inherited the abilities of these elders. In addition to their hard material and the characteristics that they will not be affected by pain, it can be said that these puppets are In terms of combat power, they are not inferior to ordinary mutant ability users, and in combination, they can display extraordinary combat power."

"so……"

Kong Zhe nodded. Indeed, as the captain of the defense, if the strength in his hands is not strong enough to suppress a group of capable people, he will not be able to do such a job at all.

But when it came to the captain of the defense, Kong Zhe remembered, isn't this woman with the knife the one who stopped the carriage at the gate of the city in the morning?

It seemed that there was indeed a man behind the row of women, and after negotiating with Xiaoyu, they were allowed to enter the city.Is that person the puppet master?

It was just because Kong Zhe was far away at that time, and he didn't see his appearance clearly, and he didn't expect these puppets to be so powerful.

"Okay, let me continue to introduce you."

Lei Yunqing coughed and drew Kong Zhe's attention back.

The two looked at the high platform again.

"The two sitting in the middle, one is from your side, I don't think I need to say it. And the other, of course, is the Palace Master..."

While listening to Lei Yun's introduction, Kong Zhe silently stared at the figure covered by the black air.

"How is it? Lord Fox God, you are quite satisfied with our arrangement!"

At this time, in the center of the high platform, the figure shrouded in black robe looked at Xiaoyu, and suddenly let out a hoarse laughter.

It was a sound like electronic synthesis, which had obviously been processed, making it impossible to hear his original timbre.
