Chapter 700 Rooftop
But the purpose of the young contractors this time was not for food, but for the truck parked in the parking lot on the first floor of the city hall that they could overlook from their perspective.
That truck was a special truck brought by the Sheriff's Department to guard the city hall. Not only did it have enough space to accommodate everyone on the roof, it also had powerful power that ordinary cars could not compare with and heavy protection that could withstand attacks from the dead.
.
The group had been discussing this for several days and determined that the truck was their only hope of escaping from the rooftop, or even leaving the city of Kolkata.
However, although the truck was visible, it was still more than two hundred meters away from the ground beneath their feet. If everyone went downstairs, the weaker ones among them would probably not be able to climb down via ropes.
Even though they can reach the ground, they still have to face the attacks of the dead and cover a long distance to reach the truck.
Not all of them are security guards and inspectors who have received physical training. They knew that doing so would lead to death, so after a series of intense discussions, they finally decided to let the contractor go there again just like last time.
Ground, drive the truck directly back to the wall.
In this way, everyone on the roof can select the "bait" for the third time and throw it to the ground on the other side dozens of meters away, giving everyone time to climb down. After everyone gets into the truck, they can
Driving out of the city.
The young contractor was not panicked at all. After all, he was the executor of this operation and would never become the sacrificed bait. He urged again:
"Make a decision quickly!"
The mayor of the city straightened his tie. Although he had been sleeping outdoors on the roof of the building during this period, his suit was already covered with dust, but he still maintained the posture of being the top leader in Calcutta. He glanced at his contractor bodyguard with an erratic expression:
"Karls, I believe you won't leave us and drive away alone."
This sentence is tantamount to reminding everyone that if the contractor named Karls did not drive back after boarding the truck, but rushed out of the city hall alone
Several people in the crowd suddenly nodded in agreement and looked at the young man hesitantly.
Karls chuckled and said: "Sir Speaker, I will definitely escort you out of the city safely. This is my responsibility."
The mayor nodded, reaching some kind of tacit agreement, and stopped talking.
Sitting next to her leaning against the wall, a female security officer wearing a police uniform from the Public Security Department and holding a rifle snorted coldly when she heard this:
"Kars will not abandon us. Don't forget, there is also the devil child. If she appears again, Karls will not be able to escape!"
After saying that, she habitually touched the spear in her hand.
Hearing her mention this name, everyone showed fearful expressions in unison. Even Karls' expression tightened and he stopped sneering.
To these people on the rooftop, the name Devil Boy is quite scary.
However, also because of the mention of the "Devil Boy", everyone seemed to have dispelled the worry that Karls would escape alone.
The female security guard curled her lips: "I will not participate in your selection. You know, if the devil boy appears again, only I can break the siege of the dead."
"Besides, if the plan fails, we will be trapped here for a while. You will need my gun and my shooting skills."
The mayor nodded and twirled his beard:
"That's true! Kai'Sa is something we can't lose!"
Everyone was silent, acquiescing to the words of the city speaker. The female security guard Kasha breathed out a sigh of satisfaction and no longer participated in everyone's election.
Another person escaped the fate of being sacrificed and was moved to a safe area.
Seeing that everyone was at a deadlock again, the mayor coughed lightly:
"And I can't be sacrificed either!"
As soon as this was said, a middle-aged woman among the crowd suddenly became unconvinced and angrily said:
"Why can't you be elected? Just because you are the mayor? This is not fair!"
"Don't forget, we are on the run now, and your status as mayor has nothing to do with our continued survival!"
When the mayor saw her refuting him, he did not panic and looked at the middle-aged woman with a smile:
"You're the cleaning lady at City Hall, right?"
The woman in a cleaning lady uniform suddenly shouted:
"So what if I'm a cleaner? We are on the run now, we are on the run! Do you understand? Since everyone is joining together to stay warm, of course there is no point in abandoning whom!"
After saying that, she raised her arms, and after holding them up, she could show the thickness of her arms:
"I have the strength! Do you understand? There are three women and a child in our group, as well as a lame man who broke his leg. No matter how you choose, it's not my turn!"
The man sitting on the ground with clothes tied to his legs suddenly became nervous and said quickly:
"I can still walk. Really, I can still walk. I'll show you a few steps."
After saying that, he struggled to get up with his injured leg, and seemed to be enduring the severe pain and walked a few steps crookedly in front of everyone.
The expressions of the other two women tightened at the same time. One of them nervously held her child, who was only about three years old, in her arms. The other young woman looked at the city speaker for help. She was the working secretary of the city speaker.
.
The mayor waved his hand calmly:
"Don't go off topic! Let me talk about the reasons why I can't be selected."
After speaking, he pointed at the contractor Karls: "He won't let me die, do you understand?"
Among this group of survivors, Karls, who was originally the bodyguard of the mayor, has long become an indispensable presence among everyone and has become a core figure among them.
The cleaner was immediately deflated, and then looked at Karls in surprise:
"You think so too?"
Karls looked at the mayor of the city with a deep look. Seeing that the latter's expression was normal, he nodded slightly.
The cleaning lady immediately quit her job: "Why? Why do you? Now we are discussing how to escape. We are trying to survive. What does this have to do with being an official or not?"
Before she finished speaking, Karls sneered:
"I'll protect whoever I say I want to protect. Do you have any objections?"
The cleaning lady immediately stopped talking. She was still dissatisfied and turned angrily to look at the young female secretary and the woman holding the child.
The city speaker coughed again: "As the speaker of Calcutta, I still have a few words to say, well. We are all outstanding citizens of Calcutta and people with conscience, I think. Children are our hope.
, yes. Even in the face of this disaster, you must not be able to accept the future of all the Ironborn across the continent."
"Similarly, since choosing a child goes against our conscience, then the child's mother should not be chosen. After all, the mother is very important to the growth of a child."
When he said these few words, he straightened his tie as he spoke, as if he was giving a speech in the city hall conference room as before.
Although no one nodded in agreement, they all remained silent. Even the cleaning lady gritted her teeth and did not refute.
The mother and son were temporarily out of danger, and just like that, everyone looked at the young female secretary almost as if they had agreed.
The young female secretary felt something bad and looked at the mayor repeatedly. When she saw that the mayor seemed to be frowning in thought and did not respond to her immediately, she suddenly became anxious.
In desperation, she subconsciously pulled her collar to make the turbulent waves inside more obvious. In the past, every time she made this move to the Speaker, she could almost get what she wanted from him.
Only this time, the mayor seemed to be in trouble, and there was a slight sweat on his forehead:
"I said."
The cleaner suddenly shouted angrily:
"Stop talking!"
"You still want your secretary not to be selected? What other bizarre reasons do you want to give? Don't think we don't know that she is your adopted lover. You single-handedly brought her to the city hall and became your secretary!
"
"Isn't your federation about fairness and openness? Do you think this is fair? Is it open? You let the mother and son off the hook just to protect the image of your city speaker. Bah! How long has it been now, and you still think you are the original city speaker?
Woolen cloth?"
"You still want to keep your secretary? It's a dream!"
The mayor's face suddenly stiffened, but he didn't say a word.
Seeing that the mayor could not help her, the female secretary quickly pointed at the man with his legs and hands and shouted angrily:
"He, he. His leg is injured and he can't climb down with the rope."
When the lame man heard this, he immediately became anxious and struggled with his unstable body:
"Although I am injured, I am a doctor, understand? I am a doctor! I must live, otherwise when everyone flees the city, anyone who is slightly injured may be life-threatening! Only I can save you
.”
Everyone turned their attention to the female secretary again.
This time, the female secretary could no longer care about maintaining her appearance and rushed towards Karls. Under the surprised gaze of the latter, she jumped directly into his arms and hugged him tightly.
"Karls, I changed my mind! I was wrong when I agreed to be your girlfriend. It was really my fault. I shouldn't have refused you before. We are all working for the city speaker. Regardless of our age,
Even at work, we are a couple blessed by the Iron God!"
"I" she hugged Karls tightly and refused to let go at all: "I regret so much! I regret that I didn't discover your kindness at the beginning, really. It's all my fault that I was blind and refused such an excellent offer from you.
Man, I, I am willing to make amends with you and spend my whole life making up for you and being your wife."
Everyone was startled by this sudden scene. Only the mayor's face stiffened, but he opened his mouth but said nothing.
However, Karls' expression changed from surprise to surprise, and then turned to a sneer again, and asked:
"Are you really the Speaker's mistress?"
The female secretary stiffened and subconsciously let go of Karls' waist. However, she immediately realized her gaffe and quickly waved her hands:
"No, how could it be! Don't believe that woman's lies, how could I be? Look at my appearance, how could such a pure woman be someone else's mistress."
Seeing that Karls didn't seem to listen, and her expression was still cold, the female secretary pointed to the mayor behind her:
"Even if I were blind, I wouldn't fall in love with an old man like him, would I? Look at how ugly he is. The skin on his face is full of wrinkles and chloasma, which makes you feel sick just by looking at him!"
Mayor: "."
Seeing Karls raising his eyebrows and actually shifting his gaze from the secretary's face to himself, with a cold expression as if he wanted to kill someone, the mayor also waved his hands:
"What she said is true! I am fat, ugly, old and frustrated, and my face is covered with wrinkles and chloasma."
Karls: "."
The female secretary suddenly cried: "Karls, I am your woman! You must make the decision for me. Not only was I targeted by that hateful woman, but I also suffered slander in my reputation. You know what this means to an unmarried girl.
How cruel is that?"
The cleaner secretly groaned at the sudden turn of events. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly became furious:
"They are working together to deceive people! You idiot, Karls!"
"Everyone here is working in the city hall. Everyone knows things, but you are the only one who is kept in the dark!"
Seeing the sudden turn of events, the doctor with a leg injury who was only waiting in the temporary safety zone came up with an idea. If he transferred the dispute to these two women, wouldn't he be safe?
So, he immediately echoed and said: "I can testify! I am a full-time doctor at the City Hall Medical Department. The mayor of the city has Hualiu disease, and"
The doctor swallowed: "This secretary also has one."
Seeing his finger pointing at her, the female secretary panicked again. She was about to deny it, but the mayor beat her to it:
"Karls, oh~~ It's my fault for this. I just don't want the love you longed for to be broken so easily."
"I plan to let everyone escape from here and tell you when it is safe. After all, this is also related to your life. Well, believe me, I am doing it for your own good!"
"Since it has been exposed, I can only tell the truth, but please believe in my good intentions." The mayor sighed heavily again, and like the doctor, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the secretary:
"He was originally a nightclub singer. After seducing me, he also infected me with the disease. It was precisely because she had this handle that I had to let her be my secretary. You
You know, if a city president is suddenly exposed to have that disease."
"You have to believe me. I have evidence. Well, she has a birthmark on her butt."
This so-called evidence immediately knocked out the secretary.
Kars suddenly had an illusion, feeling as if he was going back and forth between heaven and hell. He was clearly the key to saving everyone, but he didn't know why the Iron God wanted to punish him.
With an angry roar, he directly picked up the female secretary and threw her downstairs.
A shrill cry pierced the night sky, followed by a heavy landing.
At this moment, everyone on the roof fell into a brief panic, but they all had different thoughts.
The mother was shivering while holding her child, the cleaning lady showed a victorious smile, the mayor patted the stains on his suit in shock, the doctor touched his injured leg and worried, and the female security officer holding a gun was Ka
Sha was startled and subconsciously raised the gun in her hand.
downstairs.
All the green light on the ground seemed to be attracted by the sound, and then, the kings quickly smelled the smell of flesh and blood, and swarmed in from around them.
Even though it was seven stories high, and despite the noisy footsteps of countless dead people, the people on the top of the building still felt as if they could hear the sound of flesh and blood being torn apart below.
Karls looked at the place where the dead gathered below and cursed:
“The position was not good enough.”
"Need one more."
After saying that, he quickly turned around, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, he grabbed the female cleaning lady's clothes again, exploded with strength and threw her away.
Even for white-level contractors, the increase in strength is unmatched by ordinary people.
Only this time, everyone on the roof had a question in their minds at the same time: Why is it her?
No need to choose this time?
Or were you not planning to choose in the first place?
As the second scream full of surprise rang out, the dead on the ground gathered in two directions, finally leaving a passage on the ground.
Karls held the rope and relied on the strength of one hand to hold the rope and quickly descended level by level.
After his feet landed on the ground, his body sank slightly. After accumulating strength, he jumped up and ran towards the parking lot.
In the blink of an eye, it had already covered a distance of dozens of meters.
Although most of the dead have been attracted to two places, there are still a small number of dead moving slowly along the route. When they suddenly see a living person, they immediately come to him.
Karls did not slow down. He roared, drew out a knife and cut his palm open. At the same time, he clenched his bloody fist and hit the deceased's chin.
The deceased immediately flew sideways for a distance of five to six meters.
Karls immediately retreated a few meters. Because his position changed, the dead people gathered around him immediately chased him. When the dead person who was hit fell to the ground, the dead people who had just gathered around him were scattered around the dead person who fell to the ground.
There was a loud bang!
The kicked dead man suddenly exploded like a pack of explosives.
A dozen dead people around him were also blown away by the air waves.
This is the contract ability of Karls. He can rub the source of the symbols in his own blood. As long as he leaves the blood handprint, he can control the blood handprint to explode!
The obstacles in front of him were suddenly swept away, and Karls ran wildly again.
At the same time, gunshots were heard from the roof of the building. That was the sound of the rifle of the female security guard Kasha!
The two dead men who discovered Karls and approached him were immediately pierced through their heads. The green mist-like talisman light dissipated and they slowly fell to the ground.
As Kaisha herself said, her marksmanship is really good.
Seizing this opportunity, Karls finally arrived at the parking lot.
He did not run towards the truck, but first got into a black car. This car was the official car equipped by the city hall for the speaker, and the driver who usually drove this car was also the official car.
Part-time jobs outside of bodyguarding in Carls.
Karls skillfully took out the key that he had prepared long ago, opened the car door, got in, and locked the door with his backhand.
The car suddenly started on the spot, spun around in a circle, and rushed directly towards the truck on the far side.
