Embers Ad Infinitum
Vol 2 Chapter 99: For the tiger
Long Yuehong still replied with a dazed expression:
"it is good."
Jiang Baimian said immediately:
"Then we will help you put on the military exoskeleton device first, so even if it is a little accidental, you can solve it relatively easily."
"Okay, okay." Long Yuehong nodded hurriedly as she woke up from a dream.
Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian immediately divided the work and cooperated. One alert, the other helped Long Yuehong put on the "AC-45" military exoskeleton device bought from Lehman.
"Wait, if someone proposes, allow them to contact the forward camp and seek rescue." Jiang Baimian ordered the remaining old military exoskeleton device on his back.
She and Shang Jianyao rushed into the forest and disappeared into Long Yuehong's eyes.
After traveling a further distance, Jiang Baimian paused and glanced back:
"Or, I stay here and watch Xiaohong, lest he have any problems?"
"He can handle it himself." Shang Jianyao said seriously, "Trust him."
Jiang Baimian said in silence for a few seconds:
"Ok."
As the leader of the group, she still wanted to go to the cave, personally observe the environment, and arrange follow-up hunting operations.
The two did not delay any longer, and according to the descriptions of Gnawa and Bai Chen and the various traces on the way, they chased the target location.
In the area where the fierce gun battle took place, Long Yuehong, who was wearing a military exoskeleton device, guarded the place where the two cars were hidden, staring at the Bob corpse and the overgrown weeds more than ten meters away for a while.
He immediately sighed, cheered up, and cast his eyes on the hunters of the relics whose injuries had been preliminarily dealt with.
Some of these people are sitting with their backs against the trees, moaning in pain from time to time, and some are not fully awake, staying there like wood carvings, some panting, constantly observing the environment, seeming to want to confirm the current situation and think about what to do next do what.
Those who were seriously injured were basically dead, and there were corpses all over the floor.
This is different from the riots in Yecao City, where most of the dead were made by the "old tune group".
Long Yuehong followed instinct and monitored this area, but his mind was empty. He didn't know what to think or what he could think, until he saw a lightly injured relic hunter groping to stand up and head towards him. Come.
His slightly stupid eyes quickly returned to normal, and he looked at the ruin hunter and said:
"What's your business?"
He asked politely, but the assault rifle in his hand has been raised. As for the grenade launcher, laser launch hole, and micro submachine gun attached to the military exoskeleton device, it is also ready to go.
The relic hunter was in his early thirties, with a stubborn beard, messy brown hair, dirty and oily.
His clothes are in tatters, and I don't know how long he has not been washed and sewn.
At this moment, he held his right rib with one hand, and raised the other hand, indicating that he had no weapons.
"I want to ask what do you plan to do with us?" The relic hunter glanced over the military exoskeleton device on Long Yuehong's body, his expression became more and more humble, accompanied by a little smile.
Long Yuehong thought for a while and said:
"You are not criminals."
His thinking has returned, and he asked curiously:
"What happened to you before? Everyone didn't know each other, there was no hatred, and there was no problem of snatching loot. Why did you suddenly attack us?"
After asking in one breath, Long Yuehong remembered that he should be polite:
"How to call it?"
"Just call me Longen." Seeing that Long Yuehong's attitude was still kind, the relic hunter relaxed a lot.
His blue eyes showed a look of memory:
"It's hard for me to understand now, why we were so crazy just now and wanted to kill you, just like someone gave such an order in their mind."
"Are you here during this period of time, follow, that white wolf?" Long Yuehong thought for a long time, and finally came up with the more appropriate word "follow".
Ron's face was suddenly clouded:
"you can say so.
"On that day, my companion and I encountered it, and I watched them become fanatical, as if they had become wild wolves and were no longer humans.
"They saw my eyes full of hatred and beware. I was so frightened, I turned around and ran away, but I ran a few steps. I actually felt that I should obey the white wolf. It was so powerful, so Charm and a natural master.
"In the following period, I, my companions, and other hunters have been following it, helping it to clear traps, drive prey, and solve enemies.
"Looking back now, I feel that I am very unfamiliar and I have done so many irrational things willingly.
"I, I suspect that my mind is controlled by it..."
When talking about these, Long En's face showed an expression of horror and dazedness uncontrollably.
He paused and said:
"That white wolf will eat one person regularly. My two companions died like this, but I was not sad at all. I think the owner is satisfied..."
At this moment, Long Yuehong had a word in his mind:
Be a tiger.
Thinking of the relentless charge of the relic hunters before, Long Yuehong's feelings became more and more intense.
At the same time, he noticed a problem and couldn't help but ask:
"When you meet the white wolf, your companion is charmed, and you have nothing to do, can you turn around and run away?"
"Yes." Ron gave a positive answer.
Long Yuehong asked:
"Are you at the back of the team?"
The person in front has entered the range of ability, but he is so short of a step or two?
"I'm in the middle." Ron replied without hesitation.
This...is different from Qiao Chu's "charm"... Wait, the team leader and Shang Jianyao said the same just now...Long Yuehong hurriedly picked up the walkie-talkie and notified Jiang Baimian of this matter. Et al.
…………
When Jiang Baimian received Long Yuehong's report, he had already arrived at the cave described by Gnawa and Bai Chen with Shang Jianyao.
This location is very concealed, tightly hidden by a few boulders and the surrounding environment, if it weren't for tracking the white wolf, even Gnawa would not be able to spot it.
"There is no other exit in the nearby area." Gnawa, who had just walked back, reported his gains.
Bai Chen, who was in charge of guarding the entrance of the cave, followed:
"The target has not come out either."
Jiang Baimian looked at the dark and secluded cave with no end in sight, and said carefully:
"I don't know what's going on inside. Entering rashly and exploring recklessly is not a good thing."
"It's too deep, part of the area has exceeded my detection range." Gnawa replied, "but everything is normal in the part that was found out."
As soon as his voice fell, the earth trembled suddenly, and the entire mountains seemed to shake a few times.
Then, a dull and terrifying rumbling sounded from the depths of the cave.
Shang Jianyao and the others quickly backed away. When they pulled apart, the top of the cave collapsed, blocking the entrance.
This... Jiang Baimian's eyes widened a little.
When everything calmed down, she frowned and said:
"The cave completely collapsed?
"This movement, this change, doesn't seem to happen naturally..."
"Fortunately, Lao Ge and I didn't rush in." Bai Chen sighed sincerely.
It's buried inside.
This is also a fatal danger for intelligent robots like Gnawa.
Jiang Baimian tried to analyze:
"That big white wolf did it?
"It has a certain degree of wisdom. After escaping from another exit, it used some method to detonate the explosives embedded in the cave. It wanted to kill Old Ge, an enemy that it thought could not be solved by himself?"
Shang Jian Yao said thoughtfully:
"There is another possibility."
"What?" Jiang Baimian wanted to hear what this guy had to say.
Shang Jianyao replied with emotion:
"The white giant wolf was so proud and arrogant that we were blocked here, and there was no other way out. It simply detonated the pre-buried explosives and buried itself in the cave. He would rather die than become a human plaything."
"Really modest..." Jiang Baimian did not agree so sincerely.
She exhaled immediately:
"We are a group of two, and look for another outlet.
"This cave is so deep, the ghost knows where it will lead."
Having said that, she said while thinking:
"Combined with the information sent back by Xiaohong, the white giant wolf's abilities are similar to but different from'Charm'. It is likely that there is a limit on the number of targets, which is closer to the reality of'being a tiger'.
"Well, during this period of time, those relic hunters followed him, what are they eating, what are they drinking... by hunting? So many people have to hunt every day to fill their stomachs, and such a big movement, and How did you hide this from a powerful hunter like Wang Fugui?"
She thought that the remaining "ghosts" might provide some useful clues, so she informed Long Yuehong through the walkie-talkie.
——When they look for other exits, the walkie-talkie can't be used when they have opened the distance.
…………
After a few small chats, Ron made a request:
"Can I release the signal flare and ask for help from the forward camp? It's mainly for medical purposes. Although my injury is nothing, other people need it."
He was one of the lucky ones. At that time, he was only slightly injured by a bullet grazed his ribs, and then got rid of the abnormal state due to the severe pain and the white wolf’s distance, so he quickly put down his weapon. He fell to the ground and assumed a posture of surrender.
Thinking of the group leader's instructions, Long Yuehong nodded and said:
"Well~www.readwn.com~Wearing a military exoskeleton device, he is not too afraid that rescuers going to the camp will be malicious.
Can't beat, still can't escape?
When Long En released the signal flare, he felt the tremor of the earth, and glanced at the place where the roar was coming from doubtfully.
This calmed down quickly, and Long Yuehong casually asked Long En:
"What's the matter?"
"I don't know." Ron was blank.
Long Yuehong then glanced at the wounded and corpses all over the floor, and after a moment of silence, he asked:
"Don't you hate us?"
"Hate?" Long En smiled, "In that case, I would also attack the obviously abnormal enemies. Should I take care of their emotions? Haha, those who are still alive should thank you, and those who are dead will not have it. It’s a question of whether to hate or not. As for the companion of the deceased, I don’t know. Either my companion was eaten by the white wolf or died in the mountains.”
