The foreign affairs officer's strength was far beyond that of a muscular geek. After knocking down the two men with a raise of his hands, he immediately rushed towards Yan Rong. Lu Ning threw out the blade with her backhand, and at the same time pressed her left hand in the air. A shadow of a multiple overlapping square formation flashed. The strong recoil force instantly pressed on the foreign affairs officer, and at the same time, Lu Ning herself was bounced away a certain distance. However, the foreign affairs officer took advantage of this thrust and rushed towards Yan Rong faster. With a wave of his naginata, he passed through the lion's flame.
At this moment, Yan Rong swung out his spear, along with the roar of twelve city-breaking spears.
"Shattered in unison!"
The city-breaking spear made a deafening whistle, and Yan Rong instantly activated her two super-powerful guns and grabbed them at the same time. As the only person here who could capture the foreign affairs officer's movements, she still accurately attacked several of the foreign affairs officer's areas. Crucially, this also forced the foreign affairs officer to forcefully reverse the direction of the naginata, and waved a streak of blue flames in the air, blocking all twelve city-breaking spears.
The offensive failed to achieve results for a moment, and Robert's burning sword and Ana's saber had already arrived behind the foreign affairs officer.
"fry."
With a soft groan, the two remaining flaming heads of the dog and the wolf exploded behind the foreign affairs officer. The air wave instantly hindered the two men's offensive. At the same time, the handle of the naginata penetrated from the armpit and hit the chests of the two men hard. , knocked the two of them away, then turned the blade to head and continued to slash at Yan Rong!
This time, Yan Rong had no choice but to cross her guns and block. Amid a loud earthquake, she suddenly knelt on one knee on the ground. Cracks appeared on the masonry pavement under her feet. The foreign affairs officer was also slightly surprised. Lu Ning had rushed back at this time, and had drawn out the short sword, but the foreign affairs officer didn't even look at it and fired an invisible impact with his backhand. Lu Ning could only raise the sword and was knocked back by the impact.
"Forty seconds... your strength is beyond my expectation." The foreign affairs officer looked at Yan Rong, "Especially you, Hei Ke, has the strength of the wasteland reached this level now?"
Yan Rong lowered her arms and stared at the foreign affairs officer. After she took that move, it was difficult to lift her arms, but if she really tried harder, she could still move them, but what was the point?
Robbe and Ana were obviously not simply stabbed in the chest. They were struggling to get up from the ground, but their movements could not be slowed down for a while. It was also impossible for Lu Ning to help in this kind of battle.
"Time is running out, now--" When no one answered, the foreign affairs officer raised his knife again. At this moment, he moved back a little, and his body swayed half a meter. A white warm fireball ignited between him and Lu Ning, and disappeared after a few beats.
"We don't care which noble's subordinate you are! Don't even think about hurting our friends in front of us!"
The foreign affairs officer raised his head and looked at the low room next to him. Lan Tu, Dorothy, Dan Sheng and Papi stood there. Lan Tu raised his right hand with a ball of white flame in his palm, while Dorothy pointed all the guns in his direction with a look of indignation. expression.
"Mr. Foreign Affairs Officer, we have an agreement with the nobles." Lan Tu said calmly, "As people who handle some trivial matters for the nobles, we can have the necessary understanding of certain situations. You have no right to make routine adjustments to us. Follow-up processing methods.”
"This is not a routine incident." the foreign affairs officer laughed.
"It's the same, it's just a matter of size. Mr. Foreign Affairs Officer, let me just say it straight. If you insist on persisting with us to the end, we will definitely not be your opponent, but I think I still have the ability to make you late." Lan Tu Shake his head slightly.
"Are you threatening me?" the foreign affairs officer smiled even brighter.
"Don't dare, I know you have no problem even killing us here, but again, you will be late. One minute has passed, how much time is left before you have to rush there? I think Compared with the tasks directly assigned by the nobles, these after-dinner things don’t need to be so serious, right?”
There was something hidden in Lan Tu's words. The foreign affairs officer narrowed his eyes slightly, waved his hand in the end, and the two figures disappeared at the exit of the alley. Lan Tu breathed a sigh of relief after he left. Four people jumped down from the roof to check on everyone's situation.
"Ana and this brother were hit by some acupoints. The two who fainted were from Lost Soul Slash. Yan Rong had a slight muscle strain and bone damage, and Lu Ning had a strain." Papi scanned these or Very professional, he analyzed the injury clearly in a few seconds, "Then the foreign affairs officer did not kill him."
"That's quite rude!" Dorothy helped Yan Rong up and applied ointment to her, "Nobles always do things like this! If we hadn't arrived in time, that guy would have knocked everyone down. What happened next? ? The monster might come and kill these defenseless people!"
"Don't be angry...Dorothy..." Dansheng advised hurriedly.
"You guys, come here and help me. Help me if you can. It's important to get out of this damn place as soon as possible. Fortunately, it's not a large scale this time. We can get here in time." Lan Tu pointed at the gangsters. , those few hurried over to help everyone stand up. The four muscular weirdos who blocked the road before had been killed by the foreign affairs officer, and there was no need to take a long detour. Under the detection of Papi, everyone left the designated block safely.
"Thank you, I owe you my life again." Ana managed to recover, "That piece of shit foreign affairs officer..."
"Don't we owe each other enough? There's no need to be so hostile." Lan Tu lit up a cigarette, "Yan Rong, Lu Ning, how do you two feel?"
"A narrow escape from death." Yan Rong said seriously, "That foreign affairs officer is really strong. Is this the strength of a noble?"
"They know all kinds of things. In order to improve their strength, they learn everything, use everything, and dare to try anything." Lan Tu nodded, "It was the same with Aeosek before. He didn't know anything about the things in school. People can clear it, but these people must follow the instructions of the nobles. Usually, if it does not involve treasures or large-scale incidents handled by the nobles themselves, the foreign affairs officers will not take action."
Yan Rong looked at Lu Ning, who also nodded slightly.
So the task of collecting royal emblems in this mission is obviously not a forced one, or at least the difficulty of obtaining it through combat has reached a certain level that is unattainable.
"In short, you are lucky enough to have saved your life."
"Lan Tu, can I ask you something?" Lu Ning said.
"Oh... the things you usually ask are quite serious, but I'd better listen." Lan Tu nodded.
"Your conversation with the foreign affairs officer... it sounds like you have had some dealings with the foreign affairs officers. Do you know some foreign affairs officers?"
Lan Tu was silent for a while this time while holding a cigarette.
"Lan Tu, do you really know the foreign affairs officer?" Dorothy was surprised.
"I can't say too much, especially to you, Lu Ning." Lan Tu took a puff of cigarette, "I can only say that I do know the foreign affairs officer, and I am familiar with some of the rules here. Because this pair of mercury triggers It’s good for you, do you understand?”
Lu Ning saw his attitude and knew there was something else hidden, so she stopped questioning.
The incident of Glorious Sacrifice had been dealt with all night long, and all the gangsters and office workers had been sent away. The old people from Uncle Deng's restaurants were placed in a cheap hotel to rest. Later, when Lu Ning talked with Ana and Dorothy, she realized that her group of people had almost avoided being involved in the whole incident, so the foreign affairs officer didn't pay much attention to these people in the final evaluation.
This confirmation is of course because Dorothy and Dan Sheng were actually involved in a major incident handled by the nobles, a floating bird's nest incident officially named "Silicon Crystal", which affected an area of six square kilometers, and even secondary derivative incidents continued. After nine days, the death toll reached nearly 80,000, and no other statistics were even released.
"So you are very lucky." Dorothy held her chin and looked at Ana, "Half of Dansheng's body was replaced with silicon material, and even his speech was affected. I have permanently lost my sense of touch and my bones have softened. . This is the problem that arises after being really involved in the incident. Even Mist’s hospital cannot cure this disease."

"Sorry, Mr. Lan Tu, I want to know how my two friends are doing." Luo Bei chatted with Lan Tu in a low voice on the other side.
"That move is not a fatal attack. It knocks the soul out of the human body at a short distance, causing the body and soul to be incoordinated and causing a coma. It will take about one to three days to wake up depending on the body's constitution. If you are well prepared, you can still survive this period of time. Past.”
Robert didn't look happy, but even more depressed.
"If I'm not wrong, is there any discord in your team?" Yan Rong suddenly spoke.
"Well……"
"I remember that there were six of you, but now there are only three left. Logically speaking, you should not split up like this. After all..."
Yan Rong said it more obscurely, but tourists all understand the meaning. When you are new here and don’t know much about the surrounding environment, it’s not normal for you to just split up. Lu Ning still has the advantage of Wen Dongyang and her dark physique, but Luo Bei and the other three belong to a small group in the outer city at first glance. They separated at this time of night, and now they have such unspeakable expressions. One can imagine.
"Oh? The team that was just assembled?" Lan Tu glanced at Luo Bei, "Your equipment is not bad. Are you the teammates you found again after being broken up?"
"Let's call it that." Robert sighed, "Those three people are already acquainted with each other, and they are very strong and a bit exclusive towards others. In short, if we didn't really have no way to cooperate with them, we wouldn't have run away like this. .”
"I don't care about the affairs of other people's teams." Lan Tu shook his head, "Although your strength is not bad, if the danger in the outer city occurs, you will easily die inside."
Robert opened his mouth but said nothing.
"Let's take a short rest here today. It used to be a drug dealer's lair. After being kicked out, it was abandoned and no one came." Lan Tu smoked a cigarette and walked to the door. "It's always better to sleep."
Dorothy stretched: "Yes, I'm almost exhausted after running out in the middle of the night, even though it's already dawn..."
"Get some sleep." Yan Rong found a hard bed and lay down on it. "Also, thank you for the ointment, it is very effective."
"You're welcome." Dorothy waved her hand.
Lu Ning recalled the collected information, found a chair and closed her eyes slightly. Lan Tu walked outside with a cigarette in his mouth, taking away the smell of smoke from the room.
The morning light in the outer city is still dim and unclear, and the clouds in the sky never seem to dissipate, just like the haze that envelopes people's hearts.
"Has everything been dealt with?"
"Yeah...thank you for informing me. I was almost too late to save Ana." Lan Tu raised his head. Standing on the eaves of this abandoned building was a white-haired man holding a long staff and wearing a white ritual robe. For women, there is a "Mist" coat of arms drawn with golden lines on a ribbon near the collar of the robe.
"It's just to reduce our troublesome work." The woman said without emotion, "You happen to be the most suitable candidate."
"Yes, I will always be the right one." Lan Tu threw the cigarette butt at his feet and stamped it out, "The nobles are really incomprehensible, and now even you are a little incomprehensible to me. In order to reduce your own troubles, just Let ordinary people suffer all kinds of suffering?”
"I think you don't want to hear the reason, so this is the result." The woman's eyes were always closed and did not open at the moment, but she could feel that she was "looking" into the room.
"I want to hear the reason!"
"Then the reason is that nobles don't need to make simple things too complicated. It's just that things that are simple for us will be complicated for other nobles, and vice versa, so ordinary people will suffer."
"You can see...it's quite clear." Lan Tu was suddenly discouraged, "Forget it, I don't care what you do, at least you are alive, which shows that the nobles can still do something."
"See you later." The woman nodded, and her body turned into little bits of light and disappeared.
Lu Ning turned her electronic eyes back. Of course, her eyelids could not block this eye's visit, and after collecting some data, she also understood why Lan Tu was reluctant to tell her the relevant news.
Mist and Hei Ke obviously have a natural incompatibility. The connection between the bleak mist and the wasteland probably makes Hei Ke's relationship with this family of nobles not very good. It just so happens that Lan Tu knows Mist's foreign affairs officer.
She felt that the foreign affairs officer must have seen her, but he had the same attitude as the nobles and did not care about such level of prying.
It seems that this trip to the outer city will end here first. The next goal is to explore the ruins step by step. If you can obtain one or two treasures, you may have the capital to trade with the nobles.
Lu Ning turned off her electronic eyes and really rested.

At this time, in the wasteland, a battle had just ended in the early morning.
"Hmm...it doesn't taste good."
"Xiao Jing, butchers can't be eaten."
"But if you don't taste it while you're alive, you won't be able to eat it after it dies and turns into ashes."
"Oh... don't put everything in your mouth, you kid."
This is a group of six Hei Ke, wearing the same outfit as Lu Ning, which means that without exception, these six people all chose speed-type outfits. Although the weapons are slightly different, they are all light and agile like swords. A swift weapon.
"I said... Kuzumi Heima, is it really the right way for us to just call here? Why do I feel that the chaotic scene is not that simple?" A man with a crew cut sat on the hillside, holding a piece of grass in his mouth, looking at Looking at a depression in the distance, there was a piece of fire there, which was not very clear.
"We will still negotiate first, but if you don't want to negotiate, you can only use weapons to speak. Isn't this the same rule in this world?" Kuzumi Heizhen pulled up the girl squatting next to the butcher, "Every time, as long as Once you defeat them, you can get the information, which is very convenient."
"After the search for the ruins is over, we should start preparing to join the camp and go to the outer city." Another man with a jade-like face said calmly, "In the past of the Dead Kingdom, in addition to various monsters, so far there are also... A name like the Kingdom of Death has nothing to do with it.”
