Chapter 187: A Chaotic Surface 1
"Not a single surface person made it to the Floating Continent alive. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Han Jiang added, "They all died 'accidentally' on the way to the Floating Continent. ”
The five nations were each preparing to hand over the surface people under their control one after another - the reason for the order was that the number of materials they had in their possession was different, and the time it took to complete it was naturally different; however, none of the five important criminals who were going to be escorted to the Floating Continent could be successfully delivered, and each of them had an accident before arriving on the Floating Continent.
The first surface man to be sent up died of poisoning on the eve of the repatriation - after testing, the surface man was found to have been poisoned in his drinking water. Obviously there are quite strict security measures, but they are still poisoned. After some investigation, it was believed that the poisoning was done by other forces, and they wanted to turn the forces to which this person belonged into dirty buckets.
Although he had the first experience, the second surface man who was about to be sent to it was assassinated again. This time the assassination method was different from the previous one, this time it was sniped by a sniper hiding in the distance before the surface man was about to be sent to the airship. The sniper's technique was simply amazing, and the bullet hit the surface man's head with precision - however, no effective sniper point could be found in the entire tarmac, and after investigation, it was believed that the sniper was hiding outside the tarmac for ultra-long-range shooting - which was simply unguardable.
However, after several deliberations and discussions between the floating continent and the surface, the third surface man was still sent up - and of course, he did not escape the assassination. In terms of food and escort, everything was foolproof, however, after the airship took off, the long-range artillery fired by the unknown organization directly hit the airship. The cannon wasn't too powerful, it didn't destroy the airship entirely, it just broke the engine and forced the airship to land - if you want to have that speed and range, you have to make some compromises in terms of power. However, to everyone's near-speechlessness, a piece of shrapnel from the cannonball accurately entered the cabin, taking the life of the man on the surface.
"This ...... This is too unreliable, isn't it?" Dreamdream swallowed, "This coincidence is really a bit ......"
"Yes, there are already people doubting it at this time. Han Jiang nodded, "After all, only taking the life of that surface man is somewhat excessive. ”
At this time, the analysts were basically divided into two teams: on the one hand, they believed that it was indeed a coincidence, and that it was only necessary to strengthen the defenses near the tarmac, and on the other hand, they believed that it was not a coincidence, but a special assassination that had been carefully planned.
Although the two groups disagreed, one thing was certain: the fourth surface man would definitely still be sent to the Floating Continent, and would be given considerable protection—much more tightly than the previous three.
After the first three assassinations, many people have realized that conventional security programmes are likely to be ineffective and that special protection programmes should be employed.
Magic. It would be nice to use a mage to protect these surface people. If any other force can find a way to assassinate the surface people, it is only necessary to ask the magicians to intervene...... No matter how hard the people on the surface try, they can't beat magic, right?
