Chapter 18 The end is coming (18)
"Show mercy!"
At this time, two people appeared on the edge of the pit.
A middle-aged man wearing a suit and a tall hat, followed by a young and muscular man.
"If you kill him, there will really be no turning back!"
This person is Xinhai.
He arrived late, but arrived just before Gao Chen was about to kill Zhang Yan.
"Who is that person?"
Some people in the team turned their heads and looked upward.
"That seems to be Xinhai from the General Administration's Supervisory Branch."
"No wonder I haven't seen him during this time. He came here to perform a mission."
"He seems to know this folk knight? What is going on?"
Among the many team members who came to support, some recognized Xinhai's identity.
Gao Chen's movements paused, and he looked up.
It is really unbelievable that in order to prevent all this, Xinhai would not hesitate to expose the cooperative relationship between them.
This is probably not because the Security Bureau issued a strangulation order to him, otherwise he would never have been exposed so easily.
In the past, maybe he could break Zhang Yan's hands and feet and the matter would be over.
But now, when I thought that even the inspection team might have been infiltrated by protozoa, I couldn't help but tighten my grip on Zhang Yan's fingers.
At this time, the assistant Yu Can saw the knight hesitate.
Mistaking Xinhai's persuasion for help, he immediately shouted to the two people above him: "New team leader, is he your informant? Is this how you manage the people under you?"
"Hurry up and ask him to let go. Do you know that the person being pinched now is the captain of the second echelon, Zhang Yan! If something happens to him, you will not be able to escape responsibility!"
Xinhai's face darkened, of course he knew who the guy being pinched was.
The problem now is that no one can make Gao Chen stop. When Yu Can's words reach Gao Chen's ears, they are probably more like a provocation or threat.
"Young man, you have to think carefully!"
Xinhai looked at Gao Chen again: "Stop now and let Zhang Yan go. Maybe there is still a way to retreat."
"A way out?"
Gao Chen smiled coldly, pinched the back of Zhang Yan's neck, turned his face to the crowd, pulled out the sword from his waist, and said slowly: "I don't believe there is a way out. If there is, I will kill it with my own hands." A bloody road!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xinhai tried his best to comfort him: "You, don't be too excited, put down your sword first..."
The words have not yet fallen.
Poof! ! !
"ah--"
The long sword pierced Zhang Yan's body. He looked up to the sky and screamed. Blood flowed out, but it was difficult to move.
In the end, like a chicken that had been drained of blood, it kicked its legs and lost its life.
At this moment, time seemed to have frozen, and it was extremely quiet.
There was only the sound of blood dripping to the ground, but the huge pit was completely silent, and everyone held their breath.
Until Yu Can reacted in horror: "Captain!"
"How dare you kill a second-tier capable person!"
Yu Can's face was ferocious: "There's no way the Knight Foundation will let you go!"
Next to him, Li Weiming's pupils were shocked.
He never thought that Gao Chen could act so decisively!
Zhang Yan's kidneys were smashed with one sword, and there was no chance of rescuing him!
"It's terrible, it's terrible!"
At this time, in addition to anger, there was also absolute fear of Gao Chen.
Gao Chen threw the body to the ground, wiped away the blood with his long sword, and took it back to his waist. Then, he walked towards the back as if there was no one else around.
No one around him dared to step forward to stop him.
It wasn't until the figure disappeared into the ruins that everyone rushed towards Zhang Yan, who was lying in a pool of blood. But even if Hua Tuo came at this time, they might not be able to save his life.
"It's over, the man named Zhang is dead."
Above, Duan Xiaoyi glanced at the team leader: "What should we do? Do you want to hand over his information to the boss?"
Xinhai pondered and said, "If he dares to do this, it means he is not afraid of us handing over the information."
Duan Xiaoyi was silent after hearing this. They wanted to keep Gao Chen now, but their superiors asked them to kill Gao Chen personally or hand over the information and let their superiors do it themselves.
"There must be a reason why he suddenly did this."
Xinhai turned around and walked back to the car and said, "Contact him now and see if the communicator can still be connected."
"Now that Zhang Yan is dead, our superiors will definitely not give us another chance to negotiate with him."
Duan Xiaoyi's meaning is very clear: "He is on the verge of death now. It won't be long before even the Sakura Kingdom and the International Foundation will send knights to kill him. Even if you don't hand over the information now, you will have to hand it over then. Now. Now What’s the point of doing this anymore?”
"I just want to know, even if he doesn't let go of the two knights of Sakura Kingdom, why does even the knights of Dragon Kingdom need bloody swords!"
Xinhai did not give his apprentice a chance to refute: "You have been following me since you graduated from college, from a special task force to the current personal guard. You should know me. Before some things are investigated clearly, I cannot draw conclusions early. . There must be a reason why he became like this."
Duan Xiaoyi was puzzled, he didn't think there was any reason.
He felt that Gao Chen was like a child who suddenly gained supreme power and was unable to suppress his inner desires for a while, leading to loss of control.
This is just like the irrational consumption of those poor people who suddenly become rich. There is no reason, it is simply because desire has eroded their mind!
But after hearing what the team leader said, Duan Xiaoyi nodded and sent a message to Gao Chen on his behalf: "The team leader hopes to meet."
...
at the same time.
Leicester Group, top floor chairman's office.
"People from the Dragon Kingdom are right when they say that to do things, you need the right time, right place, and the right people."
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Lester used his telescope to vaguely see the old industrial area of the old city, which was covered in large ruins.
"We spent so much time trying to make our tribe stronger so we could fight against those knights, but in the end it was all in vain."
"And today we didn't do anything, and someone got rid of a second-tier knight for us. If you want to do big things, you really need a little bit of luck."
Behind him, the attendant said: "Boss, I know this is good for us, but I don't quite understand. Isn't that civilian knight working for Xinhai of the inspection team? Logically speaking, they should not be hostile."
"You ask me? Who should I ask?" Lester showed a rare smile and said: "Contact the patriarch and tell him that I have a new plan. It won't be long before the Dragon Kingdom will be ours."
"Understood, I will convey it to the clan leader right away."
"Wait a minute." Lester stopped the attendant again and said, "Has someone found the list left by Yuan Zhenghua?"
"Not yet." The attendant said carefully, "But there are already clues."
"Well, find that list as soon as possible. It must not fall into the hands of the inspection team."
"yes!"
After the door closed, Lester was the only one left in the office. He picked up the telescope again and looked at the ruins in the distance, feeling a little proud.
Who would have thought that the dispute between the two protozoan families would take a new turn because of a folk knight who appeared out of nowhere.
...
Far in the middle, there is a base with copper walls and iron walls.
In a dark room, a man said to a curtain: "Xinhai did not hand over the information of the civil knight."
"Then if we kill him, won't we get the information?"
There is a figure behind the curtain, speaking in a hoarse voice, making it difficult to distinguish between male and female.
"But are you sure you want to do this?"
The man seemed surprised: "We have been able to infiltrate the top leaders of Dragon Kingdom over the years and have always been very low-key. Now if Xinhai is moved at this juncture, I'm afraid..."
"He used the wrong person."
The man said: "The folk knight who can kill Zhang Yan must be stronger than the second echelon, and may even have touched the threshold of the first echelon. If we don't deal with him now, if he really grows up in the future, It’s very difficult to deal with.”
"Yes, I understand."
The man faced the curtain, slowly retreated to the door, opened it, and only dared to turn around and close the door when he was outside.
...
On the other side of the ocean, there is the land of cherry blossoms.
Security Council, Conference Hall.
All five seats were occupied except for the empty one by Sakai.
President Ishimori Ye, and the other three presidents Kono Hayada, Chiyo Idegawa, and Soke Yanagi were all present.
"We got a message."
President Ishimori Ye said: "Something happened to Sakai and Miyazaki. Their belts were damaged by a Dragon Nation folk knight."
"How is it possible?!" Liu Zongke was surprised and thought he heard wrongly: "Dragon Kingdom? Or a folk knight? With Sakai-kun's strength, it is impossible for anyone to get close to him. How can he destroy his belt so easily?"
"President, is the folk knight you are talking about the guy who fought fourteen zerg by himself a while ago?"
Imadegawa Chiyo remembered this report. The chairman of the last meeting mentioned it, and Sakai's investigation this time also aimed to find out the identity of this knight.
"Well, that's him."
Shi Morino also felt that the news was false, but the party that sent the news was the Knights Foundation of the Dragon Kingdom. These Dragon Kingdom people would never dare to make such a joke with them.
Therefore, this news is true!
"Where are they now?" Hayata Kono asked.
"In a hospital arranged by the dragon country authorities." Shi Morino said: "Sakai was seriously injured. All the muscles and bones of one calf were broken. Although he was rescued, he fell into a coma. It may be difficult to wake up again."
"And Miyazaki is still being rescued. According to the injury report from the Dragon Kingdom, Miyazaki suffered a very serious blow and was injured in many places on his body. If he can still be rescued, his condition may be worse than Sakai is even worse, and his lower body may be at risk of amputation. It is estimated that it will be difficult to wake up."
After hearing these words, everyone present was silent.
Until Liu Zongke, who had a rough face but always spoke softly and elegantly, could no longer suppress the resentment in his heart and said: "I will fly to the Dragon Kingdom now. I must find that guy and cut off his legs with my own hands! "
"I'll go too."
Hayata Kono had a gloomy face. He was not sad about what happened to Sakai, but because their Sakura Knights actually lost to the Knights of the Dragon Kingdom, and they were still a folk knight who didn't even have a rating!
Kono Hayata can't stand this kind of humiliation!
"I am coming too."
As the only woman present, Chiyo Imadegawa originally did not want to bring up the idea of accompanying him.
However, seeing the other two presidents volunteering, she naturally had to stand up: "Sakai-kun is the oldest among our four presidents. He is our senior. Now he has suffered such humiliation in the Dragon Kingdom. We should have stood up. Otherwise, the international community would have thought that we, Sakura, were so cowardly that even a small country like Dragon Country was afraid of us!"
Shi Morino was not in a hurry to express his position. Now the Dragon Kingdom authorities did not take sole responsibility, but put most of the responsibility on the civilian knight.
"What the Dragon Kingdom authorities mean is that what happened to Sakai and Miyazaki this time was entirely due to a civilian knight who was already wanted."
Ishimori Ye finally said: "If you want to avenge Sakai, I'm afraid you have to find the folk knight. But the other party is missing now. Besides, the fact that this folk knight can defeat Sakai and Miyazaki shows that he is strong. ....."
The last sentence was not finished yet.
Hayata Kono interjected: "No matter how strong he is, he can only defeat knights like Sakai-kun who are about to retreat to the background. The three of us are all first-echelon knights, except for those from the International Knight Foundation and America." Outside of the seats, I’m afraid no one can beat the three of us!”
"Yes, Hayata is right."
Liu Zongke echoed: "That is just a low-level folk knight. Sakai must have lost to him because he underestimated the enemy and was careless. Moreover, Sakai's strength has long been not as good as when he was young. If there are three of us, no, I am alone , enough to eradicate him!"
The knights of the Dragon Kingdom have always been inferior to Sakura. This has been a fact for many years. Now Sakai lost, was beaten to the point of paralysis, and turned into a vegetative state. Naturally, they wanted to vent their anger on his behalf.
"good."
Shi Morino said: "In this case, the three of you will go to the Dragon Kingdom together to hunt down this folk knight in the name of assisting the Dragon Kingdom authorities in the investigation. I will also report the matter to the International Foundation and ask them to come forward to help. "
The three of them got permission and then got up and left, preparing to leave for the Dragon Kingdom tonight.
After a while, Shi Morino walked to the window of the conference room, where he could see the door of the Security Council, which was the only way to enter and exit this place.
Watching the three cars leave, the emotions in his eyes were meaningful.
