Life as a mercenary turned into a girl is a bit difficult

"Take him back to the room first. This is not the place for questioning..." Worried that the movement here would attract the attention of others, Hiei Jing raised her head and looked around nervously. Suddenly, she noticed that there were more than ten people wearing plain clothes on both sides of the street. People with a considerable number of weapons were running towards this side. They were vaguely surrounded. Although there were not many in number, they were very eye-catching on the sparse streets.

"A lot of people are coming..." Erin suddenly turned her head and looked at the store just now, "It's them!"

Hiiragi then realized that although the two people had their arms tied, their movements were not restricted, because Ruoxiang was in such a hurry that she forgot to arrange for someone to take care of them.

And at this moment, while Poluk was staring blankly at the street, the suppressed man finally struggled out of Poluk's hand, and with a blushing face, he squeezed out two words: "Run... …”

Chapter 35 Contact Intelligence Group

The weather is sunny and the temperature is relatively high, but the annoying heat has been reduced by more than half compared to yesterday. It is indeed a good day to carry out the mission.

Wu Kuan's mission is very simple, which is to keep an eye on the traps set by Ofanto spies in the area he is responsible for. On the one hand, he monitors the latest movements of those spies, and on the other hand, he also prevents the intelligence team members arriving in Fenglin City from outside falling into this kind of trap. Trap. Ever since the Advancement Council lost its important base on the front line and lost its important base. The senior leader of the city intelligence group disappeared. Most of the contact points of the intelligence group in Ofanto have been in a state of semi-loss of contact. The further south you go, the more serious the loss of contact becomes. .

The level of the Fenglin City Intelligence Group is not high, so it is impossible to know the specific locations of other intelligence groups at the same level. Therefore, we can only use this method to hope to regain contact with other intelligence groups. However, the location of Fenglin City is somewhat remote. , since the mission was carried out, they have only found one member of the intelligence team who came to Fenglin City, and he is also the only survivor in the stronghold of the intelligence team to which he belongs. The situation is not optimistic.

And just today, Wu Kuan actually saw five people approaching the trap he was watching. They were a little short in the wasteland where supplies were scarce. There were many people shorter than normal height, but Wu Kuan did not step forward rashly. : No one can guarantee that these five people who suddenly appeared are also part of the spies’ trap.

Then he saw two of them walking into the trap and leaving three others outside.

The alarm signal of this trap has been monitored by the intelligence team. As soon as he waited for the alarm to go off, he immediately took action to rescue the two people. However, Wu Kuan, who had been waiting for a while, did not wait for the alarm signal.

Are these people really just bait to lure the intelligence team?After thinking about this clearly, Wu Kuan chuckled disdainfully. Who among the secret agents had come up with such a rough handwriting?

Then he saw a scene that made him unpredictable: one of them walked out of the trap to greet the remaining three people to enter together, and then two more people went out to look out at the door like standing guard, and then... there was actually a person with an iron The basin is filled with water from the smelly sewage ditch nearby? !What is this going to do? !

What's going on inside?To be honest, Wu Kuan has no idea what these people are doing at this point. Should he quickly report to his superiors and ask for support?Or should we continue to be vigilant and keep an eye on him?Being qualified to go out to perform missions shows that Wu Kuan is not a forward-thinking character, but so far he cannot connect these incredible scenes with logic and find it difficult to make decisions.

Just when Wu Kuan was still hesitating, the man standing at one of the doorways seemed to have noticed what he was doing, and then suddenly rushed towards his direction at an alarming speed.

Found out? !

The opponent's vigilance and speed were beyond Wu Kuan's expectations, but he did not panic. Compared with the opponent, his height and weight had an absolute advantage, not to mention that he was one of the best in Fenglin City's intelligence team. He is a good hand and an expert in close combat. Even if the opponent is a powerful opponent modified by bio-core implantation and hand speed, he is confident that he can win with his skills.

However, at the moment of the fight, the figure in front of him burst out with power that was completely unmatched by his short stature. The consequences of this misjudgment were extremely fatal. It was too late for Wu Kuan to make amends, and the short figure held him tightly. She quickly wrapped her wrist around his back and lifted her foot to his hip. Then, without any surprise, he was pinned to the ground and no matter how hard he struggled, it was as if a huge mountain was pressing down on his back, motionless.

"you……"

When Wu Kuan was about to say something, he unceremoniously grabbed a pile of dirt and stuffed it into his mouth. At the same time, he also said to another person who came over: "Go to my sister and the others quickly, go quickly!"

Is this a girl's voice?

The fishy smell and bitterness in his mouth made Wu Kuan extremely depressed. After hearing that the person who defeated him seemed to be a woman much younger than him, Wu Kuan only felt that this was his temporary illusion, but when they got together to talk At that time, he finally had to admit that they were really just a group of girls... Did they really undergo a biological nuclear implant surgery?Which force do they belong to that actually used the biological core on such a little girl, and such a young girl actually survived the operation?

Before he could react, the sensor placed close to his chest suddenly vibrated violently. Wu Kuan's expression changed: This was a signal that the alarm was triggered.

Forced by the crisis, Wu Kuan swallowed the fishy mud in his mouth in one gulp. Before the disgusting feeling could be completely swallowed, he quickly squeezed out a warning to "run quickly."

……

The running speed of several girls exceeded Wu Kuan's expectations. Almost as soon as he made a sound, they quickly evacuated their position, especially the girl who had just suppressed him to the ground and could not move. He carried it and ran without even breathing.

"Where to go?"

"Oh... turn left ahead!" The girl running at the front suddenly asked. Wu Kuan was stunned for a moment and immediately realized that the other party was actually asking him. Wu Kuan hurriedly directed, "Go straight, next to the wall. There is a secret door under the plank.”

secret door?

In front of her was a dead end blocked by a wall. When Irene, who was running at the front, peeled off a wooden board against the wall, she saw a narrow straight downward passage at the root of the wall. The stairs attached to the side wall of the passage were blocked. Simply fixed for people to go into the darkness below.

It can be seen that the so-called secret door is actually a renovated pre-war sewer, but Hiiragi Jing is somewhat hesitant. The dangerous experiences underground have caused her to have some psychological barriers to the underground environment, but after watching After Wu Kuan took the lead and climbed down the stairs, several people climbed in one after another, and she hurriedly followed him.

In fact, everyone's reaction was a bit excessive. In fact, the armed spies who came over did not see them in the corner at all. All their attention was focused on the trap set for the intelligence team on the opposite side. After all, they In his plan, he would not have expected that two witches would destroy this trap in just an instant.

"This is..." Ruoxiang looked around curiously. Although it was located underground, it didn't feel damp at all. There wasn't even a peculiar smell. It was much neater than the black market streets outside.

"Emergency shelters are used to avoid those guys. There are dozens of them throughout Fenglin City..." Wu Kuan, who was the first to enter here, explained with his back to everyone. As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around suddenly and didn't know when. A pistol actually appeared in his hand, and the black muzzle was pointed at Poluk, as if he had already convinced himself that it was the most dangerous existence among them.

"Okay ladies, since the environment here is not bad, let's talk." Wu Kuan spat a few times as he spoke. Now he finally had time to clean up the dirt in his mouth. Several girls in front of him Although they all hid their expressions under their hoods, Wu Kuan did not notice any nervous movements on the other side when facing the gun.

Sure enough, these people are not simple...

"Dare you point a gun at me? Haven't you eaten enough?" Poluk crossed his arms and said bluntly, "If my sister hadn't kept telling her not to show off her abilities, she would have struck her with a bloody knife."

However, compared to her, Irene has stronger mobility. As early as the moment Wu Kuan took out the pistol from the gap in the wall, Irene had already grasped the handle of the sickle in the black smoke. If Hiiragi hadn't decisively pressed The intelligence team member who had managed to get in touch with her arm was probably cut open unceremoniously.

Wu Kuan himself had no idea that he had been on the verge of death...

"Uh...ahem..." He choked a few times on Poluk's words, but he was not angry. Instead, he seemed to have not heard the embarrassing scene and put it behind him, "Ahem...say it, Who are you?"

"We came here under the commission of a man named Man from Vibus Town?"

"Man?"

Wu Kuan's eyes widened slightly. Although they were well hidden, Hiiragi couldn't help but used her witch's perception to focus on him: "Do you know Man?"

"Where's the evidence?"

Wu Kuan did not answer the question, but looked at Hiiragi Jing. The person who took the initiative to speak seemed to be the leader among them. Hiiragi Jing took out the thing that Man had given to her from her pocket. Obviously, it was now That's when it comes in handy.

"This is...the crown dagger?"

"So it's called this?" This rough thing that couldn't even be called a weapon actually had such a name. Hiiragi looked at the weapon in his hand carefully again with a slight surprise.

"The supplier of the cans made into the dagger was a company called 'Crown Food Co., Ltd.' before the war." Wu Kuan explained while reaching forward with his hand, and Hiei Jing ran out of the item in his hand.

After taking over the unique-shaped dagger, Wu Kuan was already convinced of the identity of Hiiragi Jing and others. He did not bother to use the gun to keep alert to them, but reached out to the bottom of the dagger's handle and pressed it. A dry leaf the size of a fingernail fell into his hand, emitting a strange fluorescence in the dim underground environment.

Before Hiei Jing could ask, Wu Kuan had already started to explain: "This is a plant leaf that grows in the desert in the north of the Advancement Society. Because of the influence of the highly polluted nuclear wasteland in the north, the leaves will emit purple and green in a dark environment. The light and duration are used as objects for internal identification of the Promotion Association... Don't worry it will not spread pollution..."

Wu Kuan put away his pistol and said to the girls with a serious face: "My name is Wu Kuan. I am a member of Fenglin City's intelligence team. I am currently the person in charge of the black market in Fenglin City. Thank you very much for taking risks." Intelligence team provided assistance.”

"Our help is not free." Custer reminded him.

"It is understandable that there are not many people in this land who are willing to be enemies of Ofantuo. Anyone who is willing to take action is an ally of the Advancement Council." Wu Kuan raised the corner of his mouth and obviously knew what Hiiragi Jing and the others were planning. "Now please let me lead the way for you ladies. Our team leader will definitely be happy to meet you."

Chapter 36 Contact Intelligence Group 2

Under the guidance of Wu Kuan, who was holding an oil lamp, everyone walked through the underground space that was actually a pre-war sewer. However, this underground space was not filled with the smell of decay and hot and humid moisture like what Hiiragi Jing had seen before. The moisture and odor that settled underground were just inevitable, but compared to the smell on the black market streets, it was already very good.

What surprised Hiiragi the most was that the number of mosquitoes along the way here was much less than expected. Poluk, who always remained calm and was not frightened, proved that the white powder on the ground should be lime powder used for drying and repelling insects. , the fungi and moss on the walls also showed signs of regular cleaning, and there was no siltation in the ditch in the middle of the sewer. It seemed that Feng Lincheng's intelligence team had fully utilized and maintained the city's sewer system, and Wu Kuan The following introduction also proves this point.

"Before the war, Fenglin City was originally an ordinary town. It did not have special military value, so it was only bombed by conventional weapons and was not affected by pollution. In fact, the original intelligence team only planned to establish a minimum four-level building in this town. level intelligence station, but after discovering that it had a sewer system with a complete structure and sufficient capacity, it immediately received attention, and an intelligence hub facing the southern Dominion region was quickly built.”

"In order to ensure environmental safety, the intelligence team regularly sprays insect repellent powder and growth inhibitors, and organizes personnel to periodically clear out mutant organisms that may enter the sewers to inhabit. However, the entire sewer system is too large, and the above actions only apply to the regular activities of the intelligence team. area, and leaving some monsters is actually for the intelligence team..." Wu Kuan suddenly paused as he spoke and then spoke again, but asked a question to Hiiragi Jing and others, "By the way, now... ...Is Man okay?"

"Huh? Oh, I'm living a good life. Now I'm running a tavern in Vibus Town." The change in the topic made Hiiragi unable to react for a while.

"Then is there a guy named Miran beside her?"

"Ah."

After receiving a positive answer to this question, Wu Kuan seemed a little unhappy and muttered in a low voice: "That guy actually got there alive..."

It seems that Wu Kuan's relationship with Man and Mi Lang is not as simple as "knowing each other". Hiiragi Jing just pretended not to hear, and she had no intention of exploring other people's interpersonal networks.

Suddenly, there were several insect-like noises coming from the depths of the dark passage ahead. Wu Kuan slapped the wall twice with his hands. Higgin Jing and others could see that this was Wu Kuan responding to the words from the other side. There was some kind of secret signal. Suddenly Wu Kuan put the oil lamp in his hand on the ground and shouted to the front: "Bobby, come here."

"?"

Just as Wu Kuan finished speaking, a sound approaching quickly came from deep in the passage ahead. It was not footsteps... It should be said that it was not human footsteps.

"Poppy! Poppy, where are you going?"

Immediately, the voice of a young woman sounded again, and soon a black shadow sprang out from the shadows in front and pounced directly on Wu Kuan, who was at the front of the team. No one among the witches took action because they were all aware of it. This dark figure does not mean any harm.

That's... a dog?

Under the illumination of the oil lamp, the black figure revealed his true identity: a black native dog. The ordinary type is the most common one in the wasteland world, but this native dog itself is obviously not ordinary... because it is really too big……

The native dog named Poppy was using his hind legs to prop up his body, leaning his upper body on Wu Kuan's shoulders. When he stood upright, he was a head taller than an adult like Wu Kuan. His huge frame was even taller than Wu Kuan's. It's the size of a headhunting wild dog. If it hadn't been for the friendly interaction with a human named Wu Kuan, judging from its appearance alone, people might have mistaken it for some kind of dangerous mutant beast.

"Poppy! It's still patrol time for Poppy." The hurried girl's call came from the direction where the black dog was running. Suddenly, a small bright spot appeared in the depths of the passage. As the bright spot got closer, Hiiragi gradually saw it clearly. What was coming was a girl who looked to be not much older than them. She had an ordinary appearance, some freckles on her cheeks, and a thin figure, similar to Hiiragi Jing who was still in the period of malnutrition.

However, since becoming Han Nianling's personal operator, Hiiragi Jing has solved the problem of food and clothing and has also gotten rid of her previous skinny figure. However, the lack of nutrition has also allowed her to gradually grow in places that she did not want to grow. Symptoms such as soreness and tender lumps caused her to miss training sessions for a long time...

"Mr. Wu, don't do it at this time..." The girl wanted to criticize Wu Kuan for interfering with the patrol mission, but her words stopped abruptly after seeing the figures behind Wu Kuan. She was waiting with Hiiragi Jing. They looked at each other for a while and then awkwardly turned to Wu Kuan, who was still interacting with Bobby.

"Okay, okay, good boy, please be quiet for a while..." Wu Kuan, aware of his companion's situation, grinned and hurriedly calmed down the excited large native dog. Then he introduced to Li Jing and others: "This is Su, Feng Lin. Become a reserve member of the intelligence team."

"Hello, hello."

Su held his hands behind his back and moved his fingers uneasily. When Wu Kuan introduced himself, he immediately bowed to Hiiragi Jing and others. His freckled cheeks turned red. Fortunately, the warm light from the oil lamp was very good. Hiding her nervousness.

"You don't have to be so formal. My name is Custer Windsor, just call me by my first name." Custer, who was in charge of etiquette, lifted his hood to reveal his gentle and elegant face. Su was stunned and Wu Kuan frowned slightly. Provoked, he knew that these people were all young girls, but he never imagined that they had such touching looks.

Then, as the remaining people introduced themselves and opened their hoods to reveal their different but equally delicate looks, Wu Kuan's expression gradually synchronized with Su Shang's.

Who are these people? !

Young and beautiful women are not uncommon, but in Ofanto they are basically the personal property of powerful people, especially those who are young and outstanding in appearance and are sent to the hands of nobles by their relatives or slave-catching teams in exchange for food, clothing and even wealth. Very common.

That Custer obviously had a high level of education... Could it be that they were relatives of a certain noble, but how could anyone let them come to such a dangerous place?Came out secretly?But the attitude towards dealing with critical situations seems to be something he has become accustomed to.

Wu Kuan forced himself to suppress his curiosity, and everything would be revealed naturally when he met the team leader.

"You... you..." Su didn't know what to say for a long time. She really couldn't believe that Wu Guanwan came back with a girl who was slightly younger than herself, and there were more than one, and everyone had their own Her appearance is not inferior to that of Sister Yu Man, which makes her a little ashamed of herself as a peer.

"Okay, now that we've gotten to know each other, let's continue on our way." After noticing that Su's mood had become a little low, Wu Kuan said in time, "Su, let's put the patrol mission on hold for now. You can take Bobby back and inform you. Team leader: Just tell him that I have something important to tell him and I will remove all the traps and traps in the B1 channel... After that, I will talk to the team leader about you becoming an official team member."

"Oh...oh! See you all later, I'm leaving!" Wu Kuan's simple words immediately cheered up Su, and he immediately forgot about the depression just now. After saying a simple goodbye, he pulled the reluctant Bobby along the way. He ran back the same way he came.

"What a dynamic lady..." Custer commented.

"She is a slave that our team members rescued from a slave-catching team last year. Because they could not find her family and the intelligence team is now in urgent need of manpower, they kept her." Wu Kuan wiped the bruises on his face with his sleeve. Bi picked up the oil lamp on the ground with the saliva left behind, "As for Poppy, we picked it up in the wilderness. At that time, it was only about the size of a palm. Who would have thought that it would grow so big."

"Have you... checked the reason?"

"I know what you are worried about. The size may be due to the influence of pollution, but it has not been invaded by viruses, and its bite will not spread pollution. It is smart and reliable, and has never attacked anyone other than its enemies since childhood." Wu After Kuan finished speaking, he continued to lead the way. Perhaps because he was close to the destination, Wu Kuan didn't say anything else along the way. The rest of the communication was left to the team leader to conduct with them.

Because of Su's advance notice, the journey went very smoothly. Not long after they walked out, two people dressed simply like civilians but equipped with firearms were waiting for them at a corner.

Wu Kuan did not speak but nodded silently. The two of them reached out and pressed a button somewhere on the wall. The wall behind them suddenly opened. There was an elevator in the wall of the sewer.

It's so well hidden...

The interior space of the elevator is not large. After Hiiragi Jing and others and Wu Kuan entered, there was no remaining space. The two people could only stay outside and wait for the next elevator. The closed elevator door could not see the outside world, and there was no room inside the elevator. There is no floor display, but you can tell from the physical sense that they are descending and continuing to move deeper into the ground.

"We have arrived!"

It seemed that the time had been calculated. As soon as Wu Kuan finished speaking, the elevator stopped running. Behind the elevator doors that opened to the left and right stood a middle-aged woman wearing glasses. She seemed to be waiting for their arrival. Her hair was simply wrapped with a scarf, and her ordinary appearance was just like the standard template of any civilian in the wasteland world, but Wu Kuan's name for her revealed her special identity.

"Team leader, these are guests from Vibus Town..."

……

The room was quite quiet, and the messy documents showed signs of having been working recently. It seemed like a space specially set aside for them to talk. After all, the underground space was not that big.

"So...you are really from the south?"

The information revealed in a simple exchange was enough to shock the people here. Like Man, they were shocked that human civilization still existed in the south. However, the reason did not seem to be as simple as Hiiragi thought that conventional concepts had been broken. .

Chapter 37 Contact Intelligence Group 3

"If that side in the south is really what you said, then maybe..." Wu Kuan's eyes widened and his trembling voice seemed to be forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart, "The true royal bloodline of Nan Ao still exists to this day, it must be so. ! They bring a large amount of guard power and supplies, and their itinerary is secretive. No one knows the location of the royal family’s refuge..."

"If we can find it, we can destroy Ofanto's legitimacy and completely wash away the slander against us..." Wu Kuan's words suddenly stopped because he suddenly saw the team leader looking at him and shaking his head gently. Freed from the temporary impact of his emotions, Wu Kuan also realized the naivety in what he said as an adult. It has to be said that the failure of the Advancement Association on the front line and the severance of contact had a huge impact on the morale of the intelligence team. Even he also I can't help but seek unrealistic sustenance.

"Don't tell anyone about this matter..." Seeing Wu Kuan's calmness, He Xiaoyu said, "The legitimacy of Ofanto does not lie in the puppet on the throne, but in the 10,000+ troops and thousands of heavy equipment. Exoskeleton kinetic armor..."

Then he turned to Hiiragi Jing and others, "We will not have any doubts about your origins, but please do not reveal this news to the members of the group... We will fabricate lies about the residents of Vibus Town for you. Identity information, please keep your mouth shut and cooperate..."

"It's understandable." Hiiragi Jing nodded. She had already understood how taboo being from the south was in Ofanto, and the false identity provided by the intelligence team was very beneficial to them.

"In addition, we are willing to provide support for everyone's request to continue heading north, and are happy to contact the intelligence team along the way to provide convenience for you... It's just..." He Xiaoyu's words were deliberately prolonged for a while. Hiiragi Jing and others also secretly increased their attention. They all knew that the next step was to negotiate terms.

"Currently, due to some things, we are temporarily unable to spare manpower..." He Xiaoyu said and looked at each other, "This matter may have something to do with you."

"Is it related to us?" Hieragi Jing was doubtful. She had a vague feeling that this sentence was not a lie to get them involved.

"Not long ago, the informant we arranged within the secret agent sent us news: In the next few days, a well-equipped private army under the First Prince from the south will pass through here and head to the royal capital... We still don't know why in the south. There will be such an armed force in the wilderness, and now I think it must be from the underground facility you mentioned."

That underground facility?

Hiiragi Jing was slightly startled. She originally thought that she would not interact with that place for a long time, but she did not expect that she would hear information about this place again in Fenglin City.

"What are you going to do?"
