Qu Jianlei spoke first, "Is this... the central city is under enemy attack?"
"Probably," Xiao Moshan nodded, but he also looked confused, "Who would sneak attack on Central City...the canyon?"
Not long after, the sound of gunfire rang out in the distance. It was sparse at first, but gradually became more intensive.
Immediately afterwards, there was another violent explosion. It was far away, but it was so powerful that the vibrations could be felt in the safe house.
The sound of gunfire lasted for more than an hour and became sparse again.
Until two hours later, cold shots continued to sound from time to time.
After another half hour, the sound of gunfire suddenly became fierce again, like exploding beans, but in another direction.
Immediately afterwards, rumbling explosions were heard, one after another, much louder than before.
This time the battle lasted longer, and it was not until midnight that the sound of gunfire subsided.
However, after the gunfire weakened, it ended quickly. After about ten minutes, the gunfire gradually stopped.
Finally, there was a loud noise, and then there was complete silence.
"I know," Xiao Moshan said in a deep voice, "They are rebels."
During the battle, the three of them did not leave the safe house at all for fear of attracting a manhunt. Now he was able to identify the rebels.
Bentley asked in surprise, "Rebels? There are actually rebels in Central City?"
He is a native of Central City. Although he has only lived for about twenty years, there is very little information about him.
"It's normal for you not to know," Xiao Moshan said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect that you would be bold enough to attack Central City."
"I don't think it's normal," Bentley protested. "My ancestors have always lived in Central City and have never heard of it!"
Xiao Moshan gave him a helpless look, "You've always heard of the Fallen, right? They belong to the rebels."
"Of course I know about the Fallen," Bentley called out, "but they are wild...how could they be rebels?"
Xiao Moshan thought for a moment, and then answered slowly, "The first fallen ones were born in the rebel army."
"At the beginning, they lacked food and drink, so they ate their dead companions, so there were a large number of degenerates...the wild ones were only a few."
Qu Jianlei couldn't help but said, "But it seems that most of the fallen are not sane."
"Wisdom will not be affected much," Xiao Moshan replied coldly, "Whoever eats too many people will have his mind distorted."
"The rebels will not take in those degenerates who are severely twisted, and will directly drive them away."
Qu Jianlei thought for a while, and then asked, "Rebels... what are they rebelling against?"
Xiao Moshan answered without hesitation, "Of course what they want is to overthrow the existing social order."
Are you talking nonsense? Qu Jianlei said calmly, "Don't you have your own political opinions? That won't go far."
"Is it necessary to say this?" Xiao Moshan replied nonchalantly, "As if you will join the rebels."
"That's absolutely impossible," Qu Jianlei said without hesitation.
Regardless of Masato's views and the like, except for cannibalism, it is absolutely impossible for him to join the rebels.
Bentley didn't consider this issue at all, even though he had done some ruthless things during his years of wandering.
But after all, he was born in Central City, received a good education since childhood, and has no big problems with his basic outlook on life.
What he cared about was another point, "When did the rebels actually gather so many people?"
Xiao Moshan still didn't care, "How many people can there be? It sounds like it's just a big move. It can be done by an A-level or above."
Qu Jianlei blinked, "Are you not afraid of hot weapons above level A?"
"Of course I'm scared," Xiao Moshan continued to answer, "But the rebels...hehe, how powerful can their weapons be?"
Then he turned his head and glanced at Qu Jianlei, "I've said a lot today, so let's just say the last sentence."
"Do you think the canyon's control training method is aimed at Central City? They don't want the rebels to get relevant knowledge."
Qu Jianlei frowned. He felt that there were some logical problems in these words.
But Xiao Moshan has already said that he will not say anything anymore. He never likes to force people, so of course he will not ask again.
Anyway, things like rebels are far away from him.
Seriously, he remembered that when Houjing was attacked by the Fallen, they underwent several rounds of inspections and their residence was exposed.
He frowned, "Will this safe house become unsafe?"
"There will definitely be a large-scale search," Xiao Moshan replied helplessly. "For such a big thing, the A-level and above in the canyon should be dispatched."
Bentley frowned, "Come to Central City?"
"Of course," Xiao Moshan replied without hesitation, "there will definitely be a big investigation. We came at the wrong time."
Am I really being tricked... Qu Jianlei curled his lips helplessly, "How about we sneak into the city?"
"You can give this idea a try," Xiao Moshan nodded.
"Anyway, we are all wanted criminals, we are on the list, we cannot be rebels."
Is co-authoring "Wanted Man" an endorsement? Qu Jianlei was also a little speechless, but this... logic doesn't make sense, right?
"If you are discovered in the middle of the night, you will be set on fire," Xiao Moshan replied dully.
"There is a high probability that Qu Jianlei will be fine, and there is a good chance that I can escape, but you... I'm afraid you are in danger."
"That's true," Bentley rolled his eyes upon hearing this.
But in the end he said, "Let's wait until daybreak before leaving. I hope it will be better."
At dawn, the three of them hit the road. Fortunately, there was a three-wheeler in the safe house that happened to carry the three of them.
The safe house was not too far from the road. Qu Jianlei pushed the three-wheeled motorcycle onto the road, trying not to use various attribute elements.
The same goes for Xiao Moshan and Bentley, one step deeper and one step shallower.
At this moment, a surprised shout came from the other side of the highway, "Jian Lei~"
Qu Jianlei looked at him in surprise, but he saw a young woman with her arm hanging up in a bandage.
With a smile on her face, she stood on the roadside and waved at him with her good hand.
Qu Jianlei frowned in confusion, so happy to see a wanted criminal? "Who are you?"
"I'm from the security team," the woman walked towards him happily, "we met last time."
"I was injured while searching for fugitives and lost my companions. Can you inform them on my behalf?"
Qu Jianlei pointed to his nose and asked with a strange expression, "Are you sure you want me, a wanted criminal, to help you deliver the message?"
"Who doesn't know that you were wronged?" The woman replied with a smile, "Many people sympathize with you, don't you know?"
"Oh," Qu Jianlei nodded, then pulled out the hand cannon on his waist, raised his hand and fired.???.
The woman's smile froze on her face, her head exploded with a "pop", and red and white splattered everywhere.
Bentley glanced sideways at him in surprise, but didn't say anything.
Xiao Moshan waved and sniffed, a look of disgust appeared on his face, "Sure enough, it is the breath of the fallen...perceived by the spirit?"
Qu Jianlei answered casually, "I don't remember seeing her, so I'll kill her later."
Bentley looked at him again in surprise, "How good is your memory?"
Just now he did not judge his partner's behavior out of trust, but now he is really surprised.
Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at him, "I have a good memory. Get in the car quickly, this shot will attract people."
His brain is good at calculations, but it is not super memory, but...he is in Central City, and the number of times he can go out is limited.
And he is very sensitive to the security team members, after all, the two sides have quite a feud.
Are there any people in the security force who sympathize with him? There must be, but not necessarily many.
In addition, this woman appeared strangely and acted very enthusiastically, so he did not hesitate to strike first.
In fact, he can use his mental power to sense it and better judge the opponent's situation.
But after encountering such a big incident, he didn't know how much trouble it would cause, so he should save as much mental energy as he could.
Three-wheeled motorcycles were speeding on the road. There were very few vehicles coming and going today.
At least fifty kilometers away from the central city, you can see an inspection checkpoint in the distance.
Qu Jianlei was thinking about how to pass this level, and then his eyes lit up, "Shall I go... Black Panther?"
The Black Panther was originally a member of the law enforcement team. After his legs were broken, he was effectively disabled and received a pension from the law enforcement team.
It wasn't until he advanced to B level and his strength greatly increased that he returned to the team.
But because he is disabled after all, some things are still inconvenient, so he is just a small boss.
Now he brings a subordinate and two reformed warriors to provide support for the level here.
Qu Jianlei stopped the car, took out a watch, and started calling Black Panther.
In fact, the tricycle stopping far away had already attracted the attention of individual guards at the checkpoint.
Black Panther picked up the watch and heard that it was Jian Lei. He thought about it and said, "Come here, I'll make sure you're fine."
Just in case, when Qu Jianlei approached the checkpoint, he also used a blinding technique on the three of his party.
However, this spell had little effect on Black Panther. The wind attribute was already good at sensing, let alone that he had been notified in advance.
Seeing the motorcycle approaching, Black Panther waved to them, "Come over that car... I'll check it out."
He checked it out pretendingly and nodded, "Well, no problem, you can go."
"Why are you leaving?" Xiao Moshan said with a smile, "Don't pretend you don't know us. Let's drink together when you get off work."
The other guards were wondering how the law enforcement team could inspect people in person. They understood immediately that the co-authors were acquaintances.
When the Black Panther heard this, he could only smile bitterly, "Wait until I get off work? Then it will be at night... I will be very busy these days."
Qu Jianlei was not very sociable, but at this moment an idea suddenly struck him.
"So hard? I'll get some food and drink for you later."
The Black Panther looked at him helplessly, "Someone brought food...forget it, that food is not enough, bring more, brothers will also have a hard time."
