James got up from the ground and covered his head to relax for a while.
"My head hurts so much... I feel like I'm being possessed by the female leader of that parasitic race.
Hiss - I didn't provoke her, why did she suddenly get angry? "He murmured and thought to himself, and when he looked up, he suddenly found Alexander standing not far away.
James' eyes widened in surprise, "Alexander?! You're not dead?"
Alexander was still staring blankly in the direction where Dorothy disappeared, with the words of Elder Yanyue echoing in his head.
When he heard James calling him, he came back to his senses and said somewhat dullly: "Ah, Elder James, I am still alive.
He was resurrected by the Dorothy Senator. "
"I see, I thought... that's right..." James reluctantly stood up and walked unsteadily towards the pit, "No matter what, I have to destroy that bubble.
If this continues, more soldiers will die. "
"Senior James!" Alexander ran to him, "Please wait a moment."
He relayed the information Dorothy had given to James, who was also full of disbelief.
After Alexander finished everything, he continued to persuade: "So the failure of the small team will be a matter of time.
As for the cat in the bubble, just let it stay inside. It won’t be long before the elders of the understanding layer come to break the bubble.
In contrast, your mission, Elder James, should be to quickly find Li Mengling who is hiding. "
James sneered and said: "You boy, after meeting the senior leaders, you start giving orders to the superiors?"
"Don't dare!" Alexander immediately lowered his head, "Senior James, you brought me up with your own hands. I just gave you a suggestion. I definitely didn't mean to order you!"
"Hahaha!" James patted Alexander on the shoulder, "I'm kidding you, you're really lucky, you can actually let the elders of the God Realm personally save you."
At this point, Alexander suddenly remembered something, and his eyes suddenly dimmed again. He sighed softly and said with emotion: "Unfortunately, not all warriors have such good luck as you."
Alexander also frowned, clenched his fists, and gritted his teeth: "I really don't understand why the Rainbow Queen treats the tower like this.
Did she suffer any great injustice during her tenure? "
"This is a matter for the higher-ups." James' whole body turned into dancing lightning, "Even the leader of the Divine Realm, Su Zhiming, doesn't know where Li Mengling is hiding, so we have to search every corner of Canglan City. .”
He paused for a moment and then said seriously: "Alexander, do you know why 2145 is called the Year of Escape?"
"Because Roland of the squad is killing people everywhere in the main world."
"Well." James looked into the distance, his sharp eyes seeming to take in every corner in front of him, "As the captain of Team 9 of Unit 35 of the Just War, I ask you now, Gao What goal does the tower need to achieve to be considered a victory?”
Alexander puffed up his chest and shouted confidently: "Completely destroy the squad!"
"There is no victory!" James suddenly grabbed Alexander's collar and said with bloodshot eyes, "There is no victory...
The tower had already failed at the beginning of this righteous battle.
So many people died in the main world, how could there be victory? !
We must try to reduce casualties as much as possible. Even if it is reduced by one, it will reduce the loss of this failure. Do you understand? ! "
Is this just another way of saying it?
How can a war have no casualties?
Could it be that because there were casualties, even if the squad was eliminated, wouldn't it be considered a victory?
Alexander didn't understand what James meant by these words.
He looked at the other party in astonishment, but never spoke.
Until James said: "You are not qualified to fight against the members of the squad.
When you encounter any member, even one whose ability data has been adjusted to the lowest, you have to turn around and run away.
Because you don't know if they have any technological weapons hidden on them. "
"Senior James, I know you are doing it for my own good, but..."
"Stay alive for me!" James interrupted him angrily and pushed him to the ground, "This is an order!"
After saying that, he turned into a golden lightning and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Alexander got up from the ground. He knew that with his own strength, he couldn't fight the team head-on, but he thought he had to do something.
He couldn't do such a thing as digging a hole and burying himself before he met the enemy.
So he dusted himself off and walked towards the pit.
At the very least, the pet must guard the team and not let it have a chance to escape before the elders of the understanding layer come to eliminate the bubble.
After all, the person in the bubble is just an ordinary cat. The cat whose ability data has been reduced has even lower intelligence than the average pet cat.
Alexander walked forward step by step. He had already planned to defend the pit. If a member of the team really came to save the cat, he would fight to the death.
But when he walked to the edge of the pit, he suddenly found that the cat in the pit had disappeared.
The strong wind carried the blood-smelling sand and dust, making him a little messy.
He was less than a hundred meters away from the pit. If any creature ran out of the pit, it would not escape his eyes.
Could it be that while Senator James was possessed by Dorothy?
Or was he just staring at the place where Senator Dorothy disappeared in a daze?
Dorothy, Yanyue, James, any one of these masters could not miss the escaped cat when they were present.
The departure of these three people was almost seamless. When did the cat escape?
What's more, it's impossible for a cat with lowered attribute data to climb out of such a deep pit, right?
He knelt down at the edge of the pit, stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of sand, which was loose and flowed out between his fingers.
A picture has emerged in my mind: a cat is trying to climb up, but its claws are slipping and it can't climb up.
How did he escape?
Could it be...
He couldn't help but shudder. Has anyone from the team been here?
Alexander looked up at the sky. Even if it fell from the sky, there must be a figure, right?
Invisible?
The intelligence did mention that the team had an invisibility cloak that could disappear instantly after putting it on.
But in such windy sand, using an invisibility cloak is of little use, right? Sand and dust will blow onto the already invisible body, making its outline visible to the naked eye.
And in order to specifically deal with the squad, every major battlefield is covered with genetic poison smoke. As long as a member of the squad inhales one breath, he will be killed immediately.
The battlefield in sight was still producing new smoke, which showed that the war there was still going on.
It’s hard to imagine which member of the squad was on that battlefield and actually persisted until now...
No matter what, he had to figure out the matter at hand first.
Alexander jumped into the pit and looked around carefully. Except for his own shoe prints, there were only shoe prints one size larger than James's.
The soles of these boots are specially made and printed with the unified pattern logo of the tower.
What exactly happened?
Even if you want to take that cat away, you can't keep your feet off the ground, right?
All traversal channels in this world have been closed, which excludes the possibility of traversers and rainbow bridge skills.
so……
Alexander sat cross-legged on the spot, thinking hard. He took out the team's ability information manual from the Tower table, flipped through it and analyzed it, trying to find some clues.
