Swinging down with a rope, the cold wind made Theodore's eyes narrow. After looking around, ascertaining his position, and comparing the map of his head, he looked in a direction in front of him, and soon jumped off the top of the hill and into the clouds.

The same feeling he had felt in the short few seconds of the communicator, the absolute silence of relativity. The thunder did not stop, and the rainstorm did become lighter than a few hours ago, and the color of the rain curtain became slightly whiter, but the effect on the vision was still there.

Soon after, Theodore had come to the edge of the area where more than a hundred people had died in a short instant. In fact, he still had luck in his heart, thinking that it was just the effect of thunderstorms, and the power of climate was indeed not something that his level could fight. Having been to the extreme region several times, he himself thought that human beings could only barely survive there, even if it was a surgeon.

Approaching slowly and gently, Theodore opened his cross pupils, and with the ability to sense temperature, a heat source different from the cold background appeared. The dim red was motionless, and it was probably less than half an hour or so before the signal disappeared to him, and even if it became a corpse, there was a slow gradient in the drop in body temperature.

"I'm sure they're all dead. Theodore explained what he had observed with a vibration in his throat, and his footsteps stopped in place, unsure if his prey would hide in under the cover of the corpses. It is true that you can avoid the detection of temperature induction, and rush over, there is a certain danger. Theodore didn't believe that prey would take such a big risk to hide in this area. It's just that in the end, it didn't pass after all, but went back some distance.

"How many airships have come down?" he asked.

"Four, already defended at the foot of the mountain. Steel's voice.

"I need the help of an airship here, it only takes a few minutes. Theodore's attention was kept on the front, "You should know my position, calculated by the analysis machine, it is about a circle of less than two hundred meters, five hundred meters in front of me." One indiscriminate strafing with a cannon, denser and denser, I suspect that the prey may be hiding in it. ”

"It's about five minutes to get past you by the nearest airship. ”

"Be careful to avoid obvious thunderclouds, airships are still something we are trying to avoid damage at the moment. ”

Quietly hiding behind a rock, Theodore observed all the subtle changes in the clouds, and there was no moving object except for the rapidly declining body temperature.

Five minutes later, the plural buzzing of "buzz" fell from above, and then in the chaotic sound of "buzz", the clouds in front of Theodore completely struggled. The bright ballistic lines tore through the thick tumbling clouds, and the hard rock surface boiled with it. The rocks splattered and scattered like a lake under a torrential rain, sweeping away everything above its surface.

Less than a minute, blood from the corpse mixed with rain flowed down the hillside, staining the ground around Theodore red. But the fishy smell was suppressed by the water vapor, and only a faint smell came into his nose.

His own perception made him feel that something was wrong, and immediately held his breath, Theodore put on the mask, looking at the blood under his feet that was getting thicker and thicker, and his face under the mask became solemn.

Something invisible was brought to him in large quantities through the bloodstream, and his skin felt a slight sensation of heat, and the air he had just inhaled made his lungs slightly hotter. It seems to know how the prey managed to make more than 100 people die in a short time. But it still needs to be determined, and in it, he also has a lot of things that he has not figured out.

"It seems that the prey came here for a purpose, but I didn't expect it to be so surprising. He sighed, waiting for news from Stien that the attack had stopped, before cautiously and slowly walking forward.

The corpses were all shattered by the cannon fire, and their bodies were far from being strong enough to withstand the gun's bullets. It did not prevent Theodore from examining the corpses, the skin all had the same features, the difference was in the degree of difference. It was an ablation mark caused by high temperatures in a short period of time, as if it was burning from the inside of the body to the outside, and it was also like the corrosion of chemicals, leaving a hideous red dot.

"The concentration of germs here is very high, and it is completely different from what we tested at the beginning. Looking at the crater in the rock in front of him, Theodore could imagine what it would be like for his prey to hide inside. Not far away, a charred rock face caught his eye. Only the heat could cause that kind of mark, and in the center, he even saw some specks of vitrified rubble.

"Was it the 'germs' that caused these people's instantaneous deaths?" Il-Sian and Sitian asked after listening to Theodore's remarks about what he had observed.

"If it wasn't so long ago, I would have agreed with that. But now, I don't think it's a 'germ', no matter how high the concentration is, with the data we can detect, if we can't let the surgeon die in a few seconds, there will be a process. And judging from the situation here, it would be more appropriate to think of 'germs' as something left over from the use of a certain weapon, like the smoke left after a bullet has been fired. They were killed by something else、、、" Theodore said as he walked among the fragments of a corpse. A slight creep interrupted his words. There was something in the fragments of the corpse, and he stepped on a piece of flesh, a mass of bright red tissue that was not dead, like a larva of an insect awakened from hibernation. It was a dragon-like organization, and it had come to life again.

"Did the prey gain strength during this time, or did it gain some surgically developed abilities in a short period of time?" said Theodore after listening to the condition of the dragon tissue under the influence of "germs".

"It's impossible to judge, but whatever the outcome, we're going to have to re-evaluate the mission. Knowing that the prey is illegally selling weapons on the black market is just an excuse, but the real reason is really surprising. Crushing the dragon tissue to pieces with his feet, Theodore told the latest on the situation as he turned and ran towards the bottom of the mountain, "I'm not going back to the airship." I don't know what special things about the prey's body, maybe it has something to do with his ability to be immune to our biological agents. He was not far from where he had made the 'germ' weapon, and he had also been harmed by that weapon. I think no matter how resistant you are, it will be affected somewhat. ”

"It is very possible to go back to the cave and hide and recover, but it is not ruled out that he will take this opportunity to choose to escape from the encirclement. Maintain communication between us and report the encirclement information to me in real time. By the way, Iir, you have to be ready, and then there's the one percent that we haven't wanted to see. ”

Ilr didn't answer directly, just "um".

The silence was too quiet, and after a minute or two, Il spoke: "Theodore, after re-evaluating this mission, I think you and I have the same idea. ”

"Of course, I'm also waiting for you to ask me. Theodore replied, "If this doesn't happen, I want to be a person who has nothing to do with it, as if I had no choice." Completing this mission is much better than if we left it and let it end in failure, no matter what you think. ”
