Chapter 375: Encirclement and Suppression

The old foreman's complexion changed quickly and returned to his original state almost instantly.

He Ao glanced at the old foreman. He was the only one among everyone present who saw the change in the old foreman's expression.

Now among the six people who have just come here, the young man is the mole, and the middle-aged woman has been controlled and has fainted.

Only the two brothers Ho and Ao, the old foreman, and the middle-aged man were left.

The old foreman put down his bracelet, looked at the crowd and said, "The combined forces of the mining consortium's mercenaries and the city defense army are coming this way. They will be able to reach the church in ten minutes at most."

"What?"

The one who reacted the most was the middle-aged man Watson. He looked at the old foreman and said, "Didn't we arrange secret sentries along the way? How come it's so fast?"

"Our 'eyes' have been bypassed."

The old foreman said softly.

"How do they know the position of our 'eyes'?" He suddenly came to his senses mid-sentence. He looked at the corpse on the ground and cursed fiercely, "Yaz is a traitor."

"Watson, now you go contact the small principals, summon everyone in the church, and go to the small pond in the innermost place."

The old foreman's tone was calm. Everyone present could panic, but he could not panic.

"good!"

Watson nodded heavily.

Although he originally wanted to follow the old foreman to see Iliaan, the matter was urgent at the moment and he couldn't take care of that much.

After arranging Watson, the old foreman looked at Ivo again, "Ivo, you and Watson are together."

"good!"

Ivo also nodded heavily, and then he subconsciously looked at He Ao.

"Nel will go with me to see the lady. I still need the lady's help this time."

The old foreman said slowly.

He didn't tell anyone else Iliaan's name, he just referred to her as 'that lady'.

Ivo looked at his younger brother and didn't know what to say for a moment. His younger brother was smarter than him and could fight better than him. He lightly patted his younger brother on the shoulder and whispered, "Be safe."

"Well," He Ao nodded slightly and said slowly, "Don't be too impulsive when things happen."

"Don't worry, I'm very cautious."

Ivo smiled.

He Ao raised his head and glanced at Ivo, wondering where he got his confidence.

······

The two brothers parted ways, and He Ao followed the old foreman and continued walking deeper into the church.

Iliaan's maid led the way from a distance without saying a word. During the incident of catching the mole just now, she also stood and watched from a distance without making any comments.

It's so quiet that it doesn't even look like a living person.

He Ao glanced at the maid's back, turned to look at the old foreman beside him, and asked slowly, "Are there B-level people among the people here?"

Relying on the strength that He Ao showed last night, no matter how many C-level people come, there is still a possibility of delivering food.

The mining consortium is coming fiercely, most likely because they have the power to suppress He Ao with confidence, and there is a high probability that he is a B-level.

"Amber, the leader of the mercenary group of the mining consortium, is a B-level transcendent,"

The old foreman answered quickly while walking quickly,

"This man himself is actually not a bad person. He often helps the poor, but his philosophy in life is to use money to do things. He takes the salary of the mining consortium and does things for the mining consortium.

"Before the contract expires, as long as the mining consortium does not harm him, he will not betray."

He Ao took a look at his pace and saw that the old foreman's chassis was very stable, not at all as old and weak as he appeared on the surface.

Underneath this rickety body may be compact and explosive muscles.

This may be one of the reasons why the old foreman dared to directly test Yaz, but he did not expect that Yaz had become a transcendent.

At Yaz's age, if he didn't have the guidance and guidance of a transcendent in the same path, he would be able to become a D-level transcendent, and his talent would already be considered astonishing.

He Ao didn't ask the old foreman about his hidden strength. Since the other party didn't take the initiative to tell him, there was no need to ask.

At this moment, they seemed to be almost at their destination. He continued to ask, "The mining consortium does not seem to have completely controlled the city defense army?"

"The city defense force in Rock City has two divisions, namely the 107th Division and the 108th Division. The mining consortium completely controls the 107th Division. They can easily mobilize the strength of the 107th Division. The 108th Division is not controlled by the mining consortium and only

It’s partially eroded.”

The old foreman replied.

He Ao: "Are there any powerful figures in the 108th Division who oppose the mining consortium?"

"The commander of the 108th Division is a Class B extraordinary person. He believes that the city defense army only needs to defend the city and cannot participate in the internal struggle of the city. The city defense army is the defender of the city, not the destroyer of the city,"

The old foreman thought for a moment and slowly narrated, "He believes that once the city defense army starts to intervene in the internal affairs of the city, it will be like opening Pandora's box, which will release unpredictable risks.

"However, although he does not like the mining consortium, the mayor and the majority of the council are members of the mining consortium. Our Rock City is on the northern border. The laws are different from other cities in the federation. The mayor has higher command authority and appointments over the military.

right.

"So the commander of the 108th Division could only suppress the internal affairs of the 108th Division and prevent them from participating in the affairs of the mining consortium. This formed a weak balance with the power of the mining consortium, maintaining the basic stability of the city defense army and preventing the city defense army from completely degenerating into

The thug of the consortium.

"Because he is the only B-class in the city defense army and is very strong, the mining consortium dare not touch him easily, so this fragile balance can barely be maintained."

"Here we are."

The cold voice of the maid came from the front.

This is a room deep in the church, with a small door, similar to the small chapel that Howe visited before.

The maid opened the door and revealed what was inside.

This is a room that looks like an ancient castle palace. It is cylindrical in shape, about ten meters high, and has a huge dome on top. The bright light shines through the lens glass of the dome, illuminating the entire palace as if it were outdoors.

And this palace-like room has almost no interior decoration, only densely packed bookshelves and books, one after another, close to each other, clinging to the wall, extending up to the top of the room, under the dome.

This is the first time that He Ao has seen these books, which are as numerous as the vast stars.

The stacks of these books made He Ao think for a moment that he had arrived at some secret ancient library.

If he hadn't seen the emblem of the seven-pointed star dedicated to the God of Knowledge in this palace, he would have even thought that Ilyan was a fanatical believer of his good friend.

He Ao turned on his super memory and glanced at it, memorizing the names of all the books in his heart.

It's a pity that the 'library' on this ground is full of normal books. Although there are also some rare books that are not in circulation that surprised He Ao, they do not contain as many secrets as the underground library.

At this moment, Iliaan is controlling a wheelchair and sitting in front of a certain bookshelf.

A book was placed on her wheelchair, and the wheelchair emitted a fast artificial intelligence voice that seemed to be reciting the contents of the book to her.

She heard the sound of the door opening and footsteps, and turned her head.

Some of the pale dome light hit her fair skin, forming a sharp contrast with the lace and black gauze that covered her eyes.

"What's wrong?"

She seemed to hear the rush of everyone's footsteps.

"Amber is coming with the mercenary group and the city defense army. They will arrive in a few minutes," the old foreman said quickly in an old voice, "There is a traitor among our people, so we took them to bypass the hidden sentries.

.”

"I see."

Iliaan closed the books on the wheelchair and put them back in the bookshelf.

Her electric wheelchair turned a corner and drove towards He Ao and the old foreman at the door.

"I will temporarily block them for you, and you can take the opportunity to move, but I won't delay for too long.

"So you may need to send some people or a strong person to attract attention and weaken the power of the city defense army and the mining consortium mercenary group, so that I can buy more time for you, but those who attract attention may

Died under the encirclement and suppression by the city defense army and the mercenary group of the mining consortium."

The old foreman nodded, and just as he was about to open his mouth, He Ao looked at Iliaan and said quickly, "I'll go, can you keep holding Ai Bo down so that he doesn't move?"

"Okay," Iliaan nodded slightly, "He won't act rashly while I'm here."

"good."

He Ao nodded, as long as the B-class was held back, he could still escape unscathed.

He was going to investigate some things on his own, and it was just a good reason to separate from the Miners' Mutual Aid Association.

The old foreman looked at He Ao. He Ao was not a member of the Miners' Mutual Aid Association, and there was no need to do these things for them.

"Just think that I replaced Ivo."

He Ao smiled.

This kind of death-seeking thing is so attractive that Nell's idiot fourth brother will definitely sign up enthusiastically.

The old foreman opened his mouth. In the end, he did not refute He Ao, but said slowly, "Pay attention to safety."

In fact, the crisis this time was not that big, because the old foreman set up an ambush and set up the headquarters of the Miners' Mutual Aid Association in the place where Iliaan lived in seclusion.

The other party counted He Ao within the power of the Miners' Mutual Aid Association and sent a B-class, but they didn't know that the mutual aid association also had a B-class.

Iliaan and the mining consortium are political enemies, and she has single-handedly supported the Miners' Mutual Aid Association, so she will help the Miners' Mutual Aid Association no matter what.

But she cannot defend the Miners' Mutual Aid Association to the death. After all, the Mutual Aid Association is just an investment for her. If the cost exceeds the expected income, she will give up the Miners' Mutual Aid Association.

Therefore, she would forcefully delay the mutual aid meeting for a period of time, but if the people in the mining consortium couldn't bear it any longer and wanted to force a charge, she would immediately get out of the way to avoid a serious head-on conflict with the mining consortium.

So she said she needed some people to attract the attention of the people in the mining consortium and lure some people away. The lighter the pressure on her, the longer she could buy for the miners' mutual aid association.

As for the Miners' Mutual Aid Association, because there are no strong people in the Mutual Aid Association itself, those who go out to distract the enemy will be in danger. This is actually a death mission.

Of course, the premise of all this is that He Ao is not involved.

Once Ho Ao is involved, things will be simple.

As long as Class B is held back, it will be easy to leave with He Ao's strength, so he is the best candidate to disperse the power of the mining consortium.

Because time was urgent, after the matter was settled, the three of them prepared to separate.

The old foreman went to the other side of the pond. There was a secret passage there. Only he knew about it, so Yaz, the mole, could not send anyone to intercept them.

He Ao and Iliaan went to the main entrance together.

Just before the three of them parted, He Ao remembered something and looked at Iliaan,

"Vinson's two Hell Apostle mechas escaped during the siege last night. Now that Vincent is dead, his power should have been annexed by the mayor.

"But those two mecha pilots are probably Vincent's die-hard loyalists and won't surrender so easily. Do you know where Vincent has a safe house?"

Iliaan was stunned for a moment. She thought for a moment, "I once read a piece of information. Vincent bought a huge warehouse at 157 Annano Street. The place was very remote and surrounded by abandoned factories.

It's very suitable for hiding mechas, but this warehouse shouldn't be hidden for long, so you can try your luck."

"OK, thanks."

He Ao nodded.

······

The three of them parted ways, and He Ao and Iliaan quickly came to a place near the main entrance.

At this moment, the sound of vehicles stopping and the sound of neat footsteps could be heard outside. It was obvious that the city defense army and the mercenary group had arrived.

He Ao followed Iliaan to the main entrance, but he would not go out.

The old foreman once made a second-class escape tunnel, right next to the main entrance. All the core personnel knew it, and Yaz naturally knew that this passage could be used to attract the attention of the people surrounding it.

When he was almost at the door, Iliaan handed He Ao a glass bead flowing with purple light.

"You hold this glass bead. When the time comes, this bead will affect the thinking of the people around you, making them think that you are followed by a group of people. This bead is disposable. It can be crushed directly when used. It is effective for only three minutes. You

Try to lure as many people away as possible.”

He Ao took the bead. This was the first time he had come into contact with this kind of ability that was not controlling, but could influence people's thinking and judgment.

However, this kind of beads can only be used by relatively strong people, because the weak ones will most likely be killed directly before they can run very far. Only the strong ones can come in and out to attract more people's attention.

If the strength is not enough, the only way is to gather enough people to attract the attention of the city defense troops and mercenary groups outside.

So what Iliaan just said is that he needs some people or a strong person.

Iliaan couldn't see anything, and He Ao's footsteps were very light when he walked, so the direction she handed out was not the direction of He Ao, but the void on the side.

He Ao stretched out his hand to put away the beads and retreated to a corner.

Iliaan's maid opened the main door of the church and pushed Iliaan's wheelchair out.

The outside was already densely surrounded by people wearing two kinds of neat uniforms.

The uniforms of the city defense army are white, while the mercenary regiments are gray and white.

At this moment, a man who looked about forty years old, with a square and thin face, short brown curly hair and a short beard was standing in front of the church door.

He stood upright, holding the exquisite and gorgeous sword at his waist in his right hand, and stared intently at the beautiful woman in black dress who came out of the church.

And very close to him, stood a thin young man. His face was pale and his eyes were sinister. He was holding a loudspeaker in his hand and seemed to be preparing to shout, 'People inside, listen, you are surrounded.

'.

That middle-aged man should be the leader of the mercenary group, Ai Bo, and behind him is the traitor Yaz.

Yaz leaned close to Albert, almost hugging his thigh against Albert's back.

This traitor seemed to be very afraid of death. He hugged his thigh tightly and refused to leave.

After Iliaan came out, although he didn't know Iliaan, he quickly got closer to Able.

His behavior made Albert frown slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Yaz is so close to Able, and anyone who wants to kill him needs to break through the defense of a B-level strongman first.

Long-range sniping may not work either. Although He Ao doesn't know what Ai Bo's talent sequence is, since he is the leader of a force group, he should also be inclined towards combat. Ordinary sniper rifles will most likely not be able to break through his defense.

Yaz seemed to think so too. After he betrayed the mutual aid association, he would inevitably encounter revenge, so he hugged his thigh tightly. If he wanted to kill him, he had to be prepared to face a B-class.

Likewise, whoever kills him will gain great prestige in the miners' mutual aid association.

He Ao glanced at Yaz and disappeared into the shadows in the corner.

------Digression-----

I'm done. There will be an update tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I'll go over the outline.
