Chapter 665: Follow-up to the Archangel Incident: The Arrival of Ciri
These days, Xie Yuan finally spent a few days peacefully.
However, this kind of peace of mind can only be achieved through a combination of circumstances.
First of all, the Archangel team is now invisible again, but it is foreseeable that they will have to settle down for a while before they can come out again... After all, they are now under severe attack from the three major mercenary groups.
The matter of the biological organization in Archangel's safe house has completely angered the three major mercenary groups: I am chasing you to protect economic losses, and it is normal for you to die - now you are better, not only did you not step into this ambush Circle, and even killed all the troops I was ambushing!
What was even more unacceptable to them was that they even hammered these ambush troops into pulp!
How can any of you be like this?!
Yes, while the three major mercenary groups were extremely angry, they were also very scared, because such cruel methods this time also proved the madness of the Archangel - yes! How could they kill a person and hammer the body into pulp? What kind of thing?! The archangel must have a mental problem!
That day, in order to clean up a whole circle of rotten slurry and biological tissues that had begun to rot and smell, the scavengers sent by the three major mercenary groups spent the entire day cleaning - and now the name of the Archangel successfully became the name of Ye Zhi's children. exists, and has an additional prefix: Bloody Archangel.
But hatred is one thing, and fear is another. Some people in the three major mercenary groups have begun to fear being beaten to pulp... At least these days, the pursuit is not very effective.
Of course, it did not fail to affect the fish in the pond - Sidoris, the former Archangel adjutant, now an informer and traitor, has been wanted by the three major mercenary groups with huge sums of money.
However, there was also no trace of Sidoris, which made the whole thing seem particularly strange.
…
However, even if the three major mercenary groups unite and announce to the outside world that they will jointly hunt down the Archangel team, there are still many conflicts internally.
After Elia received the news that Curze had brought a company of Space Marines and a platoon of heavy powered armored warriors, she was so angry that she threw a dozen of her favorite cups that day.
Not only was she angry, but more importantly, she was afraid - the hundreds of ordinary space warriors wearing power armor were okay, their combat power was terrifying, she admitted, but there were ways to deal with it.
She found that the Space Marines seemed to have never appeared with superpowers, which showed that this transformation was somewhat afraid of the special case of zero tumor.
As long as there are no superpowers on the opposite side, as Omega's strongest superpower, she has the means to deal with it.
But the tactical fearless power armor... She thought about it for a long time and couldn't think of a way to deal with it - this should be a heavy armor force on the battlefield, but here, the tactical weapon became a strategic force.
What do you want the Omega thugs with infantry light weapons and individual heavy weapons to do against the firepower of this humanoid armored vehicle?
No matter how powerful the M-77 missile launcher and M-100 grenade launcher are, the shield of their heavy-duty powered armor is also very thick - even if their detection capabilities are excellent, it is not impossible for people to use them thousands of meters away. Humans and machines come to "pull out the nails" in advance.
Therefore, with Elia's acquiescence, Sky Eclipse and Blood Sac immediately rushed out and asked Qingyang to ban the use of Tactical Dreadnought Power Armor in Omega...
Furthermore, Qingyang also promised that unless it was to target the Archangel team, Power Armor Warriors and Space Marines should not be placed in the slums.
Look, this is so literal-minded - that is to say, not only are the Space Marines not allowed to go out, but even the Space Marines are not allowed to take off their power armor and give it to other humans, or Batarians who are the same size as humans.
Sorim was caught in the middle and his head almost exploded: on the one hand, he didn't want Curze to invade his only remaining base, Omega; but Curze was invited to help after all, and although these top-level forces were only loyal to
Yu Kezi, but this is still Qingyang's force.
Eliara sidestepped, and Blood Sac and Sky Eclipse didn't know what they were crazy about. They must come out and block Curze's face regardless of life or death - this killer star is so easy to block? If you are in a hurry, directly
Let's have another Zoya melee in Omega. Let's see how you, the Blood Sac, and the Celestial Eclipse can stop it!
On the other side, although Coz stepped on his head to get the upper hand, he is still the de facto "co-owner" of Qingyang, and even the wealth under his control is actually more than before. So no matter how much you hate these two giants,
Brother, at this moment, for the sake of his wealth and life, he must do his best to keep Coze from going crazy.
Because as long as Curze doesn't go crazy, Angron won't go crazy, and the whole situation will be completely stable.
So on the one hand, he had to persuade the leaders of the other two mercenary groups here to stop, and to persuade Lady Elia to stop worrying about these dozen large mechas; on the other hand, he had to be moved by Kurtz.
Xiao Zhiyi asked him to take into account the influence of the all-pervasive Salarian government and the powerful Asari government behind Celestial Eclipse and Elia.
As for the blood sac... oh! I am afraid that injecting the blood sac will trigger an excessive response from the eclipse. Otherwise, Solim now has the Space Marines in hand and can directly send troops to destroy the blood sac!
To be honest, Qingyang now has the support of the three governments of humans, Batarians and Turians... Although it is only a meager support, there are still people behind it.
What does the blood bag have? Apart from the Krogan people, they are the Voyun people. They have no support from any government forces behind them, so they only rely on daring to fight and fight to get to the top.
But daring to fight and fight is of no use?! What do you need to rely on to get out now? You must have power and background, and finally you can fight!
The Krogan demilitarized zone now has an excellent leader named Lex Ernold, who is now unifying the entire Tutshenka, but expecting him to provide backup for the blood bag... is useless!
However, as long as Elia and Eclipse are in the way, the stalemate will always exist until one party makes a huge concession.
Curze is not a person who is willing to give in, and not fighting is his final bottom line... What a coincidence! He, Sorim, is also not a person who gives in easily.
Since Elia and Eclipse are so persistent, let's just wear it out slowly!
Here, Qingyang and two other mercenary groups were spending time with Elia. On the other side, the Woyun people also became rare and quiet. They probably heard that Qingyang mercenaries sent heavy equipment to clear them out, so they were quiet for the time being.
Came down.
But judging from the fact that they still haven't stopped their activities... it seems that they are preparing for a very violent action...
The current calm is probably just the calm before the storm.
…
What was Xie Yuan doing in such a peaceful moment?
I'm working as a tour guide for a girl, Shirley... Oh, and there's also a cat wearing clothes.
Xie Yuan was also very happy to meet his friend Xili - but the smell he smelled when they met would become the white-haired girl's nightmare these days.
At that time, after Xie Yuan killed all the ambush troops, considering that he had to let the Archangel calm down for a while, he directly hit the corpses with the dissolving acid of Alien Canoplas.
This effect caused the entire ambush force to be dissolved into pulp, except for a Krogan head left behind by Xie Yuan for a message.
With Xie Yuan, he hid himself and began to move towards one of the safe houses - now the physical puppet had reached its limit and was about to collapse. Xie Yuan planned to keep his brain for other purposes - such as killing slaves.
The "wetware" core of the mecha, the control core of the Iron Barrier Dreadnought... and so on.
After arriving at the safe house, taking off the corpse, and just sending her to the stasis processing chamber, a new message came from Xie Yuan's personal channel on the team platform: "I can come over to your current world.
Really? When I arrived at Night City, I heard Iron Man say that you are not here now."
It's Xili. Unexpectedly, she has finished her initial world and is temporarily free?
Of course Xie Yuan welcomed this: "Okay, you are welcome to come."
After saying that, Xie Yuan continued to seal the stasis chamber. After all, only by completing the energy supply can the stasis effect be officially produced.
Fortunately, this thing can be operated as long as it is powered on. When Xie Yuan closed the stasis chamber and put it in the storage cabinet, he realized that Xili hadn't appeared yet.
"Are you here?" Xie Yuan immediately asked on the communication channel.
But there was no reply... But just as he was thinking about it, Xie Yuan suddenly thought of a possibility, and his expression immediately changed: "Could it be... bad!"
Xie Yuan let his soul body continuously pass through the thick metal tunnel, and then through the underground alloy cabin bulkhead, and then took a long detour before reaching the storage place of his original body, and then saw the unconscious body
Shirley.
"I knew it!"
Xie Yuan lamented for a while. It turned out that Xili came directly to his original body as soon as he teleported. He originally thought that he would teleport directly to his soul.
This is a backlog warehouse, containing illegal goods that have expired for an unknown amount of time - the older the goods are, the smell of deterioration will permeate the air. Coupled with years of fermentation, if you smell it a little - if there is no breathing valve, although the smell is not poisonous, it will not kill you.
The extreme smoky smell can even make people suffocate to death.
Seeing the unconscious Ciri, he immediately rushed over and was about to take out the breathing valve to cut off the air she breathed.
But just as he got closer, a shrill meow suddenly sounded out: "Meow!
"
Xie Yuan lowered his head and saw that there was a person standing upright. The white cat wearing small clothes was looking at him with fur all over its body. It howled menacingly and seemed to be holding a small baby in its hand.
arms?
However, although it looked menacing, Xie Yuan could see that this white kitten was actually at the end of its fight. This super rich fermented smell was a sure blow to animals with a very sensitive sense of smell - to be honest,
If you can hold on, this white cat warrior does have a trick...
"Kitten, if you can stand up, you will definitely be able to understand me." Xie Yuan immediately gently placed the breathing valves of one large and one small not far from the kitten, "Hurry up and give them to you and me."
Bring your...friend with you, the breathing valve can block out some unpleasant smells."
After saying that, regardless of the kitten's choice, Xie Yuan directly passed over the little white cat, and then entered the stasis cabin next to him - where his original body was placed.
As soon as I returned to my original body, a strong sense of strength and comfort began to manifest in my heart - the anchor I set when I returned allowed my mind to slowly relax.
In fact, it is best to take a nap to recuperate in the comfortable internal environment of the stasis cabin, and then go out of the cabin to exercise and regain control of the body.
But now there is an unconscious Ciri outside. I don’t know if the brain tissue will be damaged due to lack of oxygen if I stay a little longer, so I immediately opened the secret door——
"Ugh!" A pungent smell rushed into his nose, and Xie Yuan almost fainted.
In desperation, Xie Yuan bit the tip of his tongue and woke up immediately. Then he picked up a breathing valve and put it on beside the bed, finally blocking out the stench.
After breathing normal air, Xie Yuan shook his head and regained consciousness. Then he stood up holding on to the bulkhead and walked tremblingly over to check on Xili... Fortunately, a breathing valve had been placed on her face, and
The kitten next to me...well...sure enough, she also passed out.
Xie Yuan immediately squatted down, covered the kitten's face with the breathing valve, and then let the magnetic probe of the breathing valve feel the skin tighten automatically, and then the effect of isolating the odorous gas was produced.
Then he fixed it on Xili in the same way. Just after putting it on, as soon as the purified air was inhaled, Xili's eyelids blinked tremblingly and finally opened.
"I...where am I?" Seeing Xie Yuan wearing a breathing valve, Xili asked subconsciously.
"In one of my safe houses," Xie Yuan comforted him softly, "you accidentally touched a mechanism, and then a large amount of coma gas made you fall asleep."
"Haha!" Shirley laughed out of anger, "Who would put coma gas in their own safe house?"
In Night City, she had received the definition of a safe house, so she understood what Xie Yuan meant.
"I'm in a place that's even more dangerous than Night City, so the safe house will naturally be a little trickier. Okay." Xie Yuan pulled Xili up and pointed at the sleepy white cat, "Look at your cat."
Well, it seems that the condition is not very good."
"Ah! White Rat Boy!" Xili calmed down and immediately picked up the cat and examined it carefully, "I feel like this is not coma gas, this seems to be a foul-smelling gas... White Rat Boy seems to have fainted due to the smell."
"Ngo! But there is no reward - this is a backlog warehouse filled with fermentation-smelling gas." Xie Yuan snapped his fingers next to the cat's ears to hasten it to wake up, then looked at Xiri and sighed, "Can I ask
Why did you bring a kitten here?"
"Because this is not an ordinary cat, but an Elu cat, my personal follower." Xili raised the white cat to Xie Yuan, "It is also the certificate awarded to me by the guild as a professional trainee monster hunter."...
"Guild certificate?!" Xie Yuan's eyes flashed with surprise, "Your world can design a policy to professionalize demon hunters so quickly? Then your world is quite enlightened!"
"What? No, no, no! This is not the Witcher Guild, it is the Monster Hunter Guild - this is not the same world as my hometown." Ciri corrected.
"Oh!" Xie Yuan suddenly realized.
"Meow!" the white cat calmly called to Xie Yuan.
"Look, he is saying hello to you?!" Xili put the white rat boy on the ground again, "So we will be here next? Can you let me go out and take a look?"
"Hey! Of course! You came here just because this is my most secret hiding place - although it is not anymore."
Xie Yuan immediately pointed to the top: "However, I still have a good place to entertain you here. Let's go out now."
After saying that, Xie Yuan came to the container door and slapped the door lock with his hand - with a "click" sound, the door opened in response.
"Let's go!" Xie Yuan waved his hand back, gesturing for Xili to follow him.
Xili quickly followed Xie Yuan's footsteps and came to the side: "Where are we going?"
"One of our teammates lives at home - Ada Wang, my intelligence officer," Xie Yuan replied. "She has a high-end building here with very good bathing facilities - let's wash you and the cat first.
, remove the smell, be careful of being pickled."
"This Ada? What is the relationship between the king and you?" Xili rolled her eyes and asked immediately.
"Teammate Relationship" Xie Yuanyan is concise and comprehensive.
"Then does she know Rogge?" Xili looked at Xie Yuan sharply and asked narrowly.
"I don't know, and Rogge won't know about her either." Xie Yuan told the truth.
"What you did was a bit unkind to her and Rogge." Shirley commented.
"It's a lot of mistakes to say, so it's better not to say anything - and if Rogge won't come over, it's better not to say anything." Xie Yuan didn't mess around and just calmed down his feelings.
"Alas! You, I don't even know what to say about you... Let's change the subject," Shirley shook her head and quickly turned over the question, "You said this is a more dangerous place than Night City. The danger lies in
where?"
"You'll know after you get on the elevator." Xie Yuanxian gave the lie.
Omega is still shrouded in dim and dim artificial lighting. There are still the same number of people, the place is still as chaotic, and the sporadic gunshots indicate that the local vitality remains as strong as ever.
However, this place is different from Night City: in the Galaxy Era, passers-by are no longer black, brown, or yellow...
Instead, various groups of humans, turians, asaris, batarians and krogan live together...
"How is it?!" Xie Yuan looked at the big-mouthed Xili and teased, "Did you suddenly feel that there is nothing special about Night City?"
"What race are these?" At this moment, Shirley's mind was filled with this question.
