Style: Science Author: TianxiWords: 2826Update Time: 24/01/12 20:10:22
Ten Thousand Islands County, Manila Bay, the Second Fleet of the Southeast Asian Navy, and the garrison personnel organized by Joseph have gathered.

Because the original defenders of Fortress No. 5 were completely wiped out, and the commander-in-chief, Griffin, a dragon-level ability user, was killed in battle, Joseph's military strength declined sharply. The garrison team also transferred two of his governor's guard officers. One of them is the secret stake planted by the Renaissance organization around Raymond: "Knight" Bein; the other is Palmer's subordinate, Douyo Maehara, known as the "god idol".

But we all know that the real Doyo Maehara is in Bandar Seri Begawan City at this time, preparing to attack and kill Trick tomorrow night. The "Doyo Maehara" reported to the New Element is actually another one of Palmer's A security officer in disguise. However, this person only has tiger-level strength, and his secret will be exposed once he takes action. Therefore, Bein still has to shoulder the burden of a certain task.

The New Element is a helicopter carrier, between the size of an aircraft carrier and a cruiser. It is an aircraft carrier mainly used to carry helicopters and vertical take-off and landing fighter jets. In addition to a large number of aircraft carriers' standing light and heavy firepower, there are twelve armed helicopters on the deck that are on standby around the clock. They are code-named "Albatross."

Most of the aircraft carrier group, with the New Element as its flagship, blocked the entire Manila Bay channel like dumplings. More than 240 meters below the water's surface is the location of Well No. 5. The high-hardness defensive wall made of special metal has survived the invasion a few days ago and is still playing a decisive role today.

But mankind has lost its observation of Well No. 5. No one knows whether another alien beast disaster has come to this world through the wellhead. If the invading alien creatures all have long-throated birds (the name given to strange birds by alien biologists) (scientific name, named because of its weird-shaped mouthparts) has the ability to destroy metal gates, so the seemingly indestructible defensive wall is actually in danger. When the defense wall is breached by alien creatures, the Second Fleet of the Southeast Asian Navy will be the second line of defense.

There are two aircraft carrier fleets in Southeast Asia. The First Fleet swims in the Strait of Malacca all year round; while exercises in the waters between Luzon and Mindoro are the daily activities of the Second Fleet.

Obviously, the purpose of the existence of the two fleets is to protect Singapore Well No. 30 and Manila No. 5 Well, and also undertake the task of destroying them when necessary: ​​the Tropic of Cancer nuclear-powered submarine dispatched by Hughes belongs to the Second Fleet.

The entire fleet was under the control of a certain admiral whose name I can't even remember, but command of the entire fleet was no longer in the hands of this unknown person. The person in charge of the fleet now is Joseph's escort officer, leader of the garrison team, and dragon-level ability user Elliot.

In addition to the above three identities, this person recently added another one: Bein Jafar's assassination target.

It is a coincidence that the other three garrisoned ability users were assigned to other ships by Elliot. Only Bein and Elliot were on the New Element (because Bein was unable to speak, so he was asked to give orders. It would be inconvenient to direct the battle, so Elliot kept him with him), which made the assassination mission possible.

Eliot must be eliminated by William and the revival organization. Firstly, as Joseph's wing, this person is deeply trusted and difficult to recruit; secondly, the Philippine Islands are William's rear area, and there is a confidant of Joseph. No matter what, how can I allow others to snore on the side of the bed?

Of course, it is impossible for the Renaissance Organization to let Bein seek his own death. Although in theory, there is basically no situation where the weak will defeat the strong in a leapfrog battle between high-level ability users, that is still a theory after all.

Bein's confidence comes from two points: First, Elliot's ability is "liquefaction". To put it simply, he can turn any inanimate object into a liquid, even a substance like diamond that has no liquid form at all. And once the target transforms into liquid, Elliot is free to manipulate them.

"Liquefaction" is undoubtedly very powerful when used in traditional warfare. It can turn everything from daggers to aircraft and tanks into liquid and flow from the hands of soldiers. However, Elliott has nothing to do against the enemy itself: hit him. The bullets would turn into steel juice in the air, but they would not melt into blood when swinging towards his fist. The piercing spear and barrier shield created by Bein's ability are naturally not affected by "liquefaction".

Second, the penetrating gun has enough penetrating power. The assassination plan was extremely simple and crude: when Elliot was unprepared, Bein sent him on his way with a piercing gun. Although "Liquefaction" can also passively protect the master, as mentioned above, this ability is not effective against the piercing spear.

Dragon-level ability users have very high physical fitness, and pistols with smaller calibers will do basically zero damage to people with abilities of this level (headshots at close range and drinking bullets do not count).

Bein's ability has the setting of "increased combat effectiveness as the silence time increases." This bonus buff has a limit. If there was no upper limit, Bein would directly use physical means such as destroying his vocal cords to make himself mute. Otherwise, he would be able to stop and kill God in a few years.

Bein has certainly done quite a lot of experiments on this point. He discovered that the critical point is when the silent time reaches thirty-six hours, and beyond this time period, the ability will not be enhanced.

A few hours ago, Bein started to practice silent meditation. Thirty-six hours later, at seven o'clock in the evening on September 2, he will launch the piercing gun with peak power and nail Elliot to death in the cabin.

…………

Wandao County, Zamboanga.

The city is the western port of Mindanao, the southern island of the Philippine Archipelago, overlooking the Sulu Islands and on the edge of the Strait of Basilan.

Wharton had just stepped out of the airport not long after he set foot in this southern-style city. As one of Sam Chapman's two ghost-level bodyguards, he had Sam's own arrangements when he came here.

He is here to kill people.

According to Wharton's original plan, he should use the most efficient method to eliminate the target. Then there was still some time left, so he could wander around the city and visit Pila Fortress and Posonanca Park.

The plan could not keep up with the change, and Wharton had to return home early. This was Sam Chapman's order: after he completed the assassination mission, he should rush directly to Bandar Seri Begawan without delay. After all, Sam was worried and wanted reliable subordinates to explore the way.

"Hey, time is so tight." Wharton scratched his bald head and felt worried. Take a look at the killer's attire: floral shirt, beach shorts, and flip-flops. He looks like a tourist, as if he is not here to kill but on vacation.

"It seems that the assassination process will have to be more stressful, and I can only choose one of Pila Fortress and Posonanca Park to visit." This is still a killer who loves traveling and loving life.

A taxi stopped in front of Wharton. The driver, who was estimated to be over fifty years old, leaned out of the window and greeted: "Sir, where are you going?"

"Oh?" Wharton opened the car door and sat in the back seat: "Let's go to Posonanka Park."

"Uh... sir," the driver looked back and said, "Don't you have any luggage?" He originally wanted to get out of the car and help Wharton carry the suitcase into the car, but he found that the passenger only had a small satchel on his shoulder.

"is it not OK?"

"No, no, of course."

As the taxi drove out of the airport, Wharton took the initiative and said, "Are you a local?"

"Yes, sir."

"Let's do this. I'll take care of you today, including the car and the people. You'll be my guide, take me around the city, and finally take me back to the airport. If you agree, these are all yours." Wharton said from his bag He pulled out a stack of thick bills.

"I am glad to!"

This kind of big business is rare, and the driver works very hard. Throughout the whole day, he seemed to be a professional tour guide. He was able to pick up Zamboanga's folk culture, customs and customs at his fingertips, and had a great time with Wharton.

At sunset, the taxi returned to the airport.

"Pim, thank you for accompanying me throughout the day." Wharton said. Pim was the taxi driver's name, and by the end of the day, the two had become familiar with each other.

"Brother Wharton, it's me who thanks you," Pim said politely, "It's not always as easy as this time."

"Yes, you will never meet someone like me again."

"That's not necessarily the case." Pim completely regarded Wharton as a tourist: "There are still many people visiting Zamboanga."

"You didn't understand what I meant," Wharton raised his head and said word by word: "I mean, you will never have a future, Pim Chapman."

"How did you know..." Pim was shocked. He knew that Joseph Chapman was his biological father, but he never thought of recognizing him, so he did not inherit the surname Chapman and used his mother's surname for decades.

Wharton turned a blind eye to Pym's shock: "After spending a day with you, I have understood your character. To be honest, I can conclude that even if Joseph captured you to be his heir before his death, you would not Agree. But, it’s a pity, a mission is a mission..."

"What heir? What mission?" A strong uneasiness suddenly emerged in Pim's heart.

"Do you think it was a coincidence that I got into your car?"

Wharton ended the conversation between them with a rhetorical question, which was also the last thing Pym heard before his death.

He was lying on the steering wheel, dead. From the outside, Pim didn't have any external injuries, but in fact, his internal organs were completely messed up.

Wharton opened the door and got out of the car: "Killers don't have holidays. It would be great if every target was a taxi driver like you." He shrugged and walked into the airport.
