Chapter 701: Surprise Attack (please vote for the big chapter)
The flowing night wind blew through the gaps between the tall buildings, and as the wind's tail swept across, the bright lights became dark.
The entire city was like a group of gradually extinguishing light bulbs, quickly dimming and completely blending into the pitch-black night.
The cold high-rise buildings are like silhouettes, stuck between the gaps among the stars.
Everyone understood one thing at this moment.
power cut.
The so-called "terrorists" in the notice have captured the power company.
The city of St. John experienced its first and only full-scale blackout since its founding.
First there was a disconnection from the internet, then there was a power outage.
Dim emergency lights illuminated behind small windows.
People in the Federation live in the network and electrical environment, just like fish living in water.
At this moment, everyone was ruthlessly thrown on the 'shore'.
The faint emergency lights dispersed the darkness in each small space. People looked around in panic. The smart bracelets could no longer contact anyone, and even the old-fashioned mechanical wireless intercoms only made a rustling sound.
The invisible connection between people has been 'cut off'. Even though there are only tens of centimeters of thick walls between them, people living in high-rise buildings feel as if they are alone in a wide wilderness.
When the power and network were lost at the same time, the foundation supporting the magnificent civilization building seemed to suddenly disappear at this moment.
"The city government informs all citizens and friends to stay in the building where you are. The city defense army and the Kjet mercenary group are fighting against the evil believer terrorists. Please keep silent. Any citizen who takes to the streets may be arrested.
Killed as a follower of the evil god."
Darkness enveloped everything, and only some street lamps whose emergency power supply had not been damaged were still shining dimly.
The engineering loudspeaker truck with a huge horn passed under a streetlight that seemed to be extinguished at any time, and the deafening sound echoed in everyone's ears.
Next to the loudspeaker vehicle, under the dim light of the street lights, were two off-road vehicles that seemed to be escorting the loudspeaker vehicle.
Soldiers wearing mercenary uniforms from the Kjet Group were sitting in the car, holding assault rifles, wearing soundproof earmuffs and infrared night vision devices, looking warily in different directions.
"Heed the warning, anyone entering the street may be shot and killed as a believer of the evil god."
The huge loudspeaker was still repeating warning words.
In the two cars behind the horn, a mercenary with a mole on his face seemed to have noticed something. He immediately raised his gun and pointed it at the corner of the street.
There, a little girl pushed open the small door of the cake shop, wearing a cute cartoon hairpin, leaning out half of her body to pick up the small glass beads that fell on the ground.
The mercenary slowly moved the crosshair to the little girl, without any pause in his movements, and pressed his finger on the trigger.
At this moment, someone seemed to have noticed the little girl in the cake shop, grabbed her back and dragged her into the room.
boom--
The bullet hit the steps in front of the cake shop.
The mercenary raised his head with some regret, as if he was lamenting that he had wasted too much time just aiming.
Then he slowly moved the rifle and pointed it at the glass door of the cake shop, or to be precise, the little girl who was pulled into the door.
The glass door is very transparent and does not block the view very well.
He could vaguely see a young lady in an apron holding a little girl in her arms, looking nervously outside.
Just when he was about to pull the trigger again.
Huh——
The teammate next to him patted his shoulder lightly.
He turned around, took off his earmuffs, and looked at his teammates.
"An off-road vehicle that was not registered just passed by. Put your gun away. The captain asked us to go over and take a look."
Taking advantage of the gap between the speaker's speech, his teammates shouted loudly beside him.
While talking, the mercenary glanced at the cake shop. The mother and daughter behind the door had disappeared, and seemed to have retreated into the depths of the cake shop.
He sighed with regret and put away the gun, "Okay!"
and retracted into the car.
The off-road vehicle they were sitting in slowly accelerated, passed the horn car in front and drove forward.
"Mom, isn't dad also a city defense soldier? Why do they want to beat me?"
In the cake shop, the little girl huddled in her mother's arms and stuck her head out from a distance.
With the emergency chandelier lit in the room, she looked through the glass door at the place where the bullet was hit.
It was dark there, as if a small crater had been blasted out.
The mother's action was a little later, and the bullet might have shattered her body. She still didn't quite understand the meaning of death, but the fear engraved in human instinct made her tremble uncontrollably.
"That's not the city defense force,"
The mother reached out and hugged her daughter, picked up the emergency chandelier on the side, and quickly retreated deeper into the cake shop.
Her bracelet lit up and displayed the dialing interface. The most recently dialed number was 'husband'.
The result of dialing out is, 'not connected'.
Bursts of fierce gunfire were faintly heard in the distance.
······
Move two blocks east from the block where the cake shop is located, and the street scene is completely different from here.
Violent gunshots rang out in every corner of the street.
Two light armored vehicles carrying two huge electromagnetic guns slowly drove into the street.
Their guns were pointed in the same direction - the FBI branch building in St. John's.
At this moment, the first floor of this branch has been completely sealed by a solid steel gate. Some FBI agents are hiding behind the gate and shooting through the shooting hole of the gate.
The ones who were shooting at them were the mercenaries of the Kjet Group who were standing under the stairs of the building and hiding behind off-road vehicles in rows.
"Director Skate, we got the approval from the city hall. We suspect that the FBI has hidden followers of the evil god, so we came here to investigate,"
A man who looked like a mercenary officer was hiding behind the car, holding a loudspeaker and shouting, "Stop resisting in vain. The more you resist, the more it proves that you are colluding with the evil god."
"Shit!"
An angry voice came from behind the gate, "I've never heard of a mercenary group investigating the FBI. If the City Hall wants to investigate me, first of all, get Irons's approval document from the FBI."
Bring out the documents from the headquarters."
A roar came from behind the gate, and there was a brief moment of silence outside.
Then I heard the people inside continue to curse, "I tell you, you bastards are the bastards who colluded with the evil god."
"Brother inside, we need to hear what Director Skeet has to say,"
This time, the mercenary officer finally spoke, "Shouldn't this matter be decided by your director?"
There was silence in the building, and then a calm voice came, "What Deputy Director Vince said is exactly what I want to say. Bring Irons and the headquarters' transfer order. This kind of forced entry violates federal law."
, launching an attack on any federal central agency is an attack on the entire federation, and you are embarking on a path that is bound to fail."
The surrounding air became quiet for a moment after these words were spoken.
Only the sound of gunfire from both sides still continued.
The mercenary officer standing outside glanced at the man next to him wearing the uniform of the Pollution Cleanup Division, "Is that the voice of Director Skate?"
"Yes."
The man thought for a moment and nodded.
"If he's still here, it'll be easier to handle."
The officer laughed, raised his hand, and waved gently.
Two armored vehicles on the street began to calibrate their muzzles.
······
At this moment, inside the building, a burly man turned off the high-definition recorder in his hand and spat, "What the hell, I'm not playing the recording. Does the director's words sound better than my words? You are a bastard with no appreciation level."
"
"Deputy Director,"
An FBI agent who was hiding in the shooting port turned around and looked at the strong man, "What should we do next?"
"How did those idiots at City Hall let these bastards bring these things in?"
The strong man, or Deputy Director Vince, glanced through the firing hole at the two light armored vehicles outside that were calibrating the muzzles, "You can find a basketball and put it on those idiots' necks faster than their brains."
He picked up the tape recorder in his hand, stared at the two cannons that were about to be calibrated, and shouted, "Brothers, move back. Our mission is to cover the director's departure. Don't fight desperately. The upstairs is our territory. Send this person
Help the bastard go meet their evil father."
The surrounding FBI agents quickly retracted their guns and flew back upstairs.
Boom boom——
The next second, two huge shells hit the metal gate, tearing the entire gate apart easily and exploding in the lobby on the first floor of the FBI.
"Come on!"
The horns of the mercenary group's charge sounded outside the door.
······
Right now on the back side of the building next to the FBI.
Skeet, who was holding a metal suitcase in one hand and grasping the bent and shapeless guardrail with the other, glanced at her feet.
He was still about seven or eight meters above the ground. After a brief hesitation, he let go of his hand.
boom--
His body fell quickly and hit the ground. Then the moment he landed, he pressed down and rolled forward several times to relieve the force.
He shook his sore right hand, glanced at the dust all over his body, and sighed.
He had seen before that the old gentleman seemed to have jumped from the tenth floor of the Evolution Branch, using the fixed rod as a buffer, and finally landed intact, so he immediately wanted to try it.
But obviously, even if he is a powerful C-level, there are some things that he cannot learn indiscriminately.
He even almost hung it on the wall.
But in the end he was very lucky and got downstairs smoothly.
call--
And just as he shook his hands and relaxed, the sound of an off-road vehicle crossing the road came from the front.
"So fast?"
Skate was stunned, raised her head, and looked forward.
Then he was stunned for a moment.
What came from the front was not the off-road vehicle he expected, but an off-road vehicle filled with five mercenaries and belonging to the Kjet mercenary group.
And when he discovered the other party, the other party also discovered him.
He could clearly feel that the eyes of those mercenaries were getting excited.
The mercenary sitting in the back row raised his gun and pointed it at Skate.
boom--
At this moment, an off-road vehicle rushed out from the side road and hit the off-road vehicle full of mercenaries.
Before the mercenaries in the car could react, the entire off-road vehicle was knocked out, and several mercenaries who were not seated firmly were also thrown away.
However, these mercenaries also reacted quickly. They raised their guns and pointed them at the off-road vehicle that followed.
They themselves came to chase this off-road vehicle.
The next second, the off-road vehicle made a sharp turn and rushed in front of Skate.
Skate jumped into the co-pilot, then quickly pulled out a pistol from his arms and pointed it at the mercenaries behind him who had not fully recovered from the collision even though the muzzles were pointed in this direction.
boom--
A shot was fired and hit a mercenary directly in the head.
The mercenary fell backward.
The mercenary in the car panicked.
The next second, the off-road vehicle that Skate was in suddenly turned a corner and drove towards the off-road vehicle behind her.
Bang bang——
Skate fired two more shots.
Two more mercenaries fell, including the driver of the off-road vehicle.
The entire off-road vehicle lost control in an instant. Skate took advantage of the situation and raised his pistol and shot him again.
There were a total of five people on the mercenary off-road vehicle, and now only one is left.
This was a mercenary with a mole on his face. He pulled the body of his companion in front of him and fired a shot at the off-road vehicle where Skeet was.
boom--
The movement of the off-road vehicle was not completely regular. Although the shot was predicted, it still missed the target and only shattered the rear glass of the off-road vehicle.
The driver's skills are very good!
At this moment, the mercenary realized something and pointed his gun at the cab of the off-road vehicle.
Then he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be nothing on the driver's seat.
Is this car self-driving?
But soon, as the vehicle approached, he discovered that there was no one in the driver's seat. A little girl was sitting in the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel.
Because the girl was not tall enough, at first glance, he looked like there was no one in the driver's seat.
He subconsciously pointed the gun in his hand at the little girl.
etc?
A little girl drove a car and dodged my bullet?
He was stunned for a moment.
boom--
And in this dazed moment, a gunshot took away his doubts and his life.
Skate, who was sitting in the passenger seat, put down his pistol and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he can easily deal with these guys if he gets up close, his speed is actually not much faster than shooting.
Since it is a long-range attack, we still respect the rules of long-range attacks.
Extraordinary people can also believe in science.
After all, guns are a good thing.
What's more, he's a good marksman.
The out-of-control off-road vehicle hit the wall on the side, and Skate, who was relieved, also looked at the little girl sitting in the driver's seat, "Did you drive here?"
"No,"
The little girl loosened her grip on the steering wheel and looked at Skate with her cute little face, "Offline automatic driving system."
"and you······"
Skate was stunned.
Then he reacted instantly, smiled and shook his head.
What the girl did just now was for the mercenaries on the opposite side to see.
A spooky little guy.
"Who are you?"
He looked at the little girl and asked.
"Granddaughter!" the little girl nodded, "My name is Jia Qian, and you are Uncle Skate. Grandpa told me that I know it is you."
"Jia Xi,"
Skate glanced at the little girl and asked with some confusion, "Where are we going next?"
"Pollution Cleanup Department Building."
Jia Qian quickly replied.
"Aren't we going to where we said we were going?"
Skate was stunned.
"Uncle Si Enji has already gone with the detective team you provided,"
Jia Qian's words were calm, "And we are going to the Pollution Cleanup Department."
As she said that, she glanced at Skate and said, "Uncle, did you bring that thing with you?"
"Bring it!"
Skate patted the suitcase in her arms.
At the same time, he also realized that the little girl next to him had much more logical thinking than children of the same age.
"Uncle, please insert this."
Jia Qian unfolded a chip from her palm and handed it to Skeet.
"This is?"
Skate took the chip.
"Remote automatic control system. Grandpa said we need this if there is a power outage."
Jia Qian said.
"I see."
Skate glanced at the chip in her hand.
In fact, in addition to network and power outages, this city is also covered with another thing - wireless signal interference.
These dense interferences cause almost all wireless communication equipment to malfunction.
This is an extremely powerful interference device.
Under this kind of interference, even walkie-talkies cannot be used, and many wireless remote control devices completely fail.
In this case, they really need such an automatic control system.
However, such a strong interference should not only be effective for the same party.

Simon·Above the High Wall
The cold wind blew across everyone's cheeks, and Bran raised his head and stared at the silent night that seemed to merge with everything.
Standing on the high wall, you can overlook the vast wilderness on one side and the entire city on the other.
Here is the dividing line between humans and wilderness.
There were sporadic gunshots ringing out all around.
That was the Kjet mercenary group taking control of the high wall.
A city defense force that had lost its leader and was filled with bribed officers was unable to fight against Kjet's mercenary group.
Everything went smoothly and according to the original plan.
It seems it's time to pop the champagne.
"Captain, look over there! Is there something coming in the wilderness?"
At this moment, a mercenary officer suddenly yelled.
"Um?"
Bran was stunned for a moment, picked up the telescope hanging around his neck, and looked into the distance.
In that pitch-black wilderness, a 'team' consisting of several fighter jets and transport planes was passing under the stars at extremely fast speeds, heading towards the gate at their feet.
