The warehouse where the "Ghost Group" is hiding has been surrounded.
There is no point in retreating.
As long as they didn't untie the "explosive collars" around Lulu's parents' necks, they would always be confined to Hippocratic City.
This means that now that their whereabouts are exposed, they must resist for at least thirty minutes.
And at this moment, Hidri, the [Hunting Gun] who was hiding in the sniper spot, also sent a message: "Boy Raymond, I have encountered a little trouble here, and I may not be able to take care of you, so be careful."
Obviously, the shot just now had exposed his position, and those guys at cp9 would definitely not leave such a top player alone.
However, even though he was surrounded, Raymond didn't feel that things were that bad.
The two top masters who had asked Mr. Capone for help before were enough to give them enough strength to fight when they encountered most dangers.
At the same time as the crisis emerged, another master wearing a black cloak who had been lurking nearby also appeared.
His hands are covered with punk-style steam steel arms, and the exposed skin on his face is covered with dense black rune tattoos, like an expressionless human skin mask.
This man is also a legendary boss.
"Boy Raymond, be careful, there are a lot of troublesome guys here. I may not be able to protect you in a long battle..."
Armin Aluret is the captain of the 21st team of the "Blood Emperor Pirates", Sequence 0 [Explosive Rune Boxer], and he is also the most powerful rune enchantment mechanic under Capone.
This time he came to support Raymond and his team in their rescue operation. He also came to learn from the "Ghost Group" the top enchanting technology for ships.
With the combat power of these two captains, Raymond has the confidence to fight against the forces of the World Headquarters in the city.
...
"Everyone, be careful!"
Raymond sensed the surrounding targets and said: "The other side has at least fifteen 'artificial beings' coming! Sol, you cover Colin to unlock... Anna, Fat Cat and I will kill the enemy with Senior A Ming!"
Everyone: "Yes, Captain!"
After a few breaths, black beams of annihilation penetrated the steel wall of the warehouse, and a tall steel beast came in.
Different from the "artificial humans" I saw in Jaffatron before, the dozen or so in front of me were obviously much more refined and full of technology.
In comparison, the ones I saw for the first time were simply "rough", and these are the finished products.
Now these iron lumps are not only equipped with magic annihilation weapons, but also have a shining silver shield in their hands, which looks like both offense and defense.
In such a short period of time, the World Government has completed the improvement and upgrade of "artificial humans". The scientific research level and efficiency of those secret laboratories can be seen clearly.
...
"Artificial Man" is not afraid of life and death and has amazing defense.
They were regarded as sharp weapons for attacking enemies. As soon as they rushed in, they immediately entered the killing mode.
[Exploding Rune Boxer] Amin also reacted very quickly. He looked at these iron lumps and snorted coldly.
Looking again, with a flash of his body, he had already rushed hundreds of meters, and the crackling iron fist hit the body of an artificial man hard.
"Bang"!
The violent explosion sounded like a magic cannon hitting the target, shattering the eardrums.
The iron lump was hit by the double attack of "explosion rune" and fist power, and the tall figure instantly flew backwards. Like a cannonball, it smashed a big hole in the wall of the warehouse with a "bang".
However, in the blink of an eye, an intact steel giant stood up from the ruins.
"Hey, this guy's defense is much stronger than that of the previous generation of 'artificial beings'..."
Seeing this scene, Raymond's pupils shrank slightly, and he instantly had a sense of calculation in his heart.
He has systematic data to observe and is more precise.
At this moment, there is only one change in the "artificial man" that was punched, which is that the durability has dropped by 1%. This means that with the punch just now, a Sequence 0 boss like Amin will need to hit him a hundred times.
Only by punching can it be truly "killed"!
At this time, those steel giants were not idle either.
They all raised their right arms and locked the dark muzzles of magic energy on Raymond and the others in the warehouse.
"Zizzi..." the sound of energy accumulation sounded, and black beams of light shot toward everyone.
Facing this black light, everyone in the "ghost group" is very familiar with it, and there is no panic in dealing with it.
Thor quickly raised his giant shield to defend himself, blocking Colin and the others.
And Anna also instantly entered the "elemental body" state and turned into a ball of water mist.
A ray of black light was heading towards Raymond himself. He did not hesitate and took out a bright bronze mirror from the package, accurately blocking the beam of annihilating black light!
And, it doesn't stop there... As soon as the black light touched the bronze mirror, it immediately reflected back and shot directly towards the "artificial man" who fired.
"bingo!"
This is what Raymond and the others had prepared to deal with before.
Knowing that the War Department of the World Headquarters has mastered the "magic annihilation weapon" technology, how could they not be prepared at all? There may not be many masters of these secret laboratories, but these technological monsters are definitely indispensable.
Although the artificial beings had frighteningly high defense against both physical objects and demons, and were also immune to mind control, Raymond's existing methods were unable to do anything to them.
Unfortunately, he also has enough experience to deal with this kind of iron lump.
Back in Galfatron, he used this method to kill no less than twenty artificial humans.
This bronze mirror engraved with "SS-level mirror runes" is the best way to counterattack!
Raymond blocked the black light of annihilation with ease, casually glanced at the durability of the bronze mirror in his hand, and didn't pay much attention. He just muttered: "The material of the bronze mirror is far worse than Thor's shield... Even if it is
The SS runes are also embedded in it. After this blow, nearly half of the durability has been lost. It will be scrapped after two times..."
Because...he had a lot of improvised gadgets in his package.
It's more than enough to kill more than ten steel monsters with reflection.
...
Originally, according to the predetermined script, the reflected black light would penetrate the chest of the "artificial man" and completely silence it.
This is his time-tested killing technique.
Unexpectedly, when he saw the next scene, Raymond's face suddenly twitched, and he was shocked: "Holy shit! The shields in these iron hands are actually mirror-reflective equipment?"
The black light was successfully reflected, but the beam was blocked by the "artificial man".
Like playing table tennis, the black light bounced out again and shot directly through the roof above the head, revealing a large hole at the mouth of the cylinder.
"This is really troublesome..."
Seeing this scene, Raymond secretly thought something bad, and the trace of happiness he had in his heart disappeared instantly.
Looking again, Sol, Anna, and Colin were in similar situations. The bronze mirrors made in advance were unable to effectively counterattack, and were blocked by the steel monster's shield.
It seems that after the last time Addron suffered a big loss, the World Headquarters immediately made up for the "shortcomings" of the "artificial beings".
On the other hand, Boss A Ming has an overwhelming advantage.
His iron fists were so domineering that he beat six or seven cyborgs into pieces and flew backwards.
But these iron lumps with rough skin and thick flesh are very durable and show no signs of being scrapped for a while.
...
The sudden change made Raymond suddenly fall into deep thought.
Now that the best "mirror reflection" method to deal with these iron lumps is useless, how should we deal with the more than ten "artificial humans" in front of us?
If they really had to survive under the hands of more than a dozen "artificial beings" for half an hour, the situation would probably not be optimistic.
What's more, how could those guys at cp9 give them this opportunity?
The "artificial man" is just the first wave of charge, and there will definitely be back-ups behind it.
Sure enough, at this moment, the entire abandoned factory suddenly shook, as if something huge was approaching, shaking the ground step by step.
Bang, bang, bang...
The violent muffled sound shook people's hearts.
"There's someone here again!"
At this moment, many "qi" appeared in Raymond's perception, and one of them was very strange and huge!
That terrifying "qi"... was even more exaggerated than the [Elephant King] Taimo he had sensed before!
How can it be!
Is it possible that the World Headquarters has ambushed a general-level combat force here?
Raymond's first impression was that it was impossible. For a small shrimp like him, the World Headquarters would send one of the three major futures of the headquarters?
This is definitely not normal!
...
At this time, the trembling sound of the footsteps became more and more violent.
Ah Ming, who was not far away, clearly sensed something, and his expression changed suddenly.
He seemed to have thought of something, and his aura suddenly burst out. At this time, the layers of rune light shields around him also lit up, as if his full potential was activated, and his aura surged several times!
After the firepower was fully turned on, Brother A Ming was also very fast. Everyone only felt a flash of light and shadow, and he moved in front of an artificial man, and easily broke the iron head.
"Use your ultimate move!"
Raymond looked at this scene and didn't understand that Boss A Ming had activated his method of suppressing the bottom of the box.
Although this state is powerful and seems to have the upper hand in the battle against the androids, it does not last long at all.
It's okay to say that they are just a few iron lumps, but what A Ming is obviously afraid of is the upcoming "powerful enemy"!
"Boy Raymond, there is a very terrifying existence outside. It will be here in at most twenty breaths. I will try my best to help you drag it away. You can find an opportunity to evacuate as soon as possible!"
A Ming's face was very solemn. If the opponent really came with a combat force of the level of a naval commander, even he himself would not be sure of escaping unscathed, let alone protecting people like the "Ghost Group".
After taking a breath, he was afraid that Raymond and the others would not know the critical situation, so he added: "There are general-level combatants among the people who are coming. They are invincible and must leave immediately!"
...
"What?! Combat power at the level of a general in this headquarters?"
After hearing this, everyone understood.
With such a general-level presence, it is impossible for them to persist here for thirty minutes. If they continue to waste time here, the only way out is to annihilate the entire army.
Hearing this, the expressions of Lulu's parents changed even more.
The couple looked at each other, looked at each other affectionately and nodded, both understanding the decision in each other's eyes.
They did not hesitate at all, and said to Raymond with pleading faces: "My husband and I are extremely grateful to you for coming to save us. Now that I have put everyone in danger, we feel even more guilty...
Please Captain Raymond, please leave us alone and take Lulu and escape as soon as possible."
In the eyes of this couple, their own lives are far less important than their son.
If they really had to choose, they would give up their lives without hesitation, just like they did when they quietly let Lulu go.
Now, they have made the same choice again.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes quietly fell on Raymond's face.
At this moment, the fate of the "Ghost Group" rests on Raymond's decision alone.
Raymond, who always thought he was decisive enough, now also encountered a problem.
If they do not withdraw, the "ghost group" will most likely be surrounded and destroyed.
If they were evacuated, the rescue operation would have completely failed, and things would develop in an unpredictable and difficult direction.
At this time, as if to help Raymond make up his mind, Lulu's father said again: "If I guess correctly, the general-level combat force outside is most likely the biochemical weapon secretly developed by Dr. H in the '027 Laboratory'
Monster 'x Titan'! Its combat power is very terrifying. It has the blood of the giants and the limbs of hundreds of beasts, so it is simply invincible..."
Lulu's mother also responded earnestly: "That's right! We have been caught, we are still valuable to them, and our lives will not be in danger for a while. You go quickly, escape from here first, and then think about it in the long run...
.”
In fact, everyone understood that these were words of comfort from the two elders.
This rescue failed. From now on, only Lulu surrenders to the World Headquarters, otherwise the two elders will die.
Whatever the World Headquarters can't get, it will be destroyed... This is how they always do things.
This farewell may be an eternal farewell.
.......
Raymond knew that the lives of his companions now depended on his own decision, so he did not hesitate. Just as he was about to speak, Lulu spoke first: "Captain! You go first, I will stay to hold them back...
"
After a pause, he seemed to have made a decision, and said with determination: "Captain, everyone... thank you for taking the risk to rescue my father and mother. This time, I must also make my choice..."
These words are more like saying goodbye.
No one can truly understand Lulu's ecstasy of regaining something, nor can they understand the despair of gaining and losing at the same time.
This innocent-hearted big-headed son loves his parents far more than his own life.
Only by experiencing the real "personal pain of bereavement" can we know how decisive his choice was at this moment.
"you..."
Looking at the tear-filled look in Lulu's eyes, Raymond immediately understood what he was going to do. Before he could stop him, he watched Lulu inject a seven-color linked potion into his body.
Lulu stared at the "Ghost Group" with a sad smile on her face: "Captain Raymond, Sister Anna, Colin, Shitou, Sol... Thank you all for taking care of me. Let's go on adventures with you all.
The time is the happiest day in my life..."
"Potion No. 8 [Titan]?"
Raymond's pupils shrank suddenly, and he cursed in his heart: Damn it, this is the worst step!
"Lulu! No, no..."
Anna, Colin, Thor and Sha Mao also understood something at this moment. They all knew the existence of the "No. 8 Combat Potion" that Lulu was developing.
This potion can give him super combat power, but the price is...certain death!
At this moment, everyone wanted to say something more, but the real danger did not allow them to hesitate at all.
A Peng, who was fighting the "artificial man" not far away, also turned his head and shouted loudly: "Boy Raymond, don't hesitate! It's too late if you don't leave now!"
Raymond also said decisively: "Anna, Colin, Sol, Shitou, you go quickly!"
Everyone: "Captain, what about you?"
"I'll stay here to see if I can save Lulu's soul."
Now that the matter has come to this, Raymond can only choose this choice, and said: "Don't worry about me, I have my own means of saving my life. Let's go quickly!"
He couldn't stop Lulu's choice, and he didn't intend to. In this life, there will always be something that he is willing to pay with his life. He can understand the mood of Datou's son at the moment.
In fact, he had thought about this worst plan before coming here.
To others, death is the point.
But for him, a soul-based transcendent who has mastered the skill "Reincarnation in the Dirty Land", this is another beginning.
Although it is considered a second move... this move is also the last move.
He really didn't want to end up like this unless he had to.
"Yes, Captain! Be careful!"
After hearing this, Anna and the others did not hesitate, turned around and evacuated the warehouse towards the pre-planned escape route.
Everyone is well aware of Raymond's ability, and they know that only by leaving decisively can their captain's final move be smooth...
...
Several people left, but Raymond and Lulu stayed behind.
The most surprising thing was Lulu’s parents.
Why haven't they left yet?
Are you going to stay here and wait to die?
Obviously, they also understood that the two of them were planning to give it a try.
These sudden changes occurred within a few seconds, leaving no chance to stop them.
The couple are biological scientists and are no strangers to "combat chemicals". Naturally, they understand that the medicine Lulu injected just now may not be that simple.
"Lulu, you..."
Looking at the aura on Lulu's body that was gradually becoming violent at this moment, both of them had a look of regret in their eyes.
Obviously they also understood that their son was planning to risk his life for them.
Amidst the sadness, there is also a hint of despair.
Both husband and wife are very clear that although the increase in the combat potions of their Fritznero family is good, after all, Lulu's extraordinary level is not too high. Even if he is injected with the fatal "No. 7 potion", it will not change the overall situation at all.
, and he will never be a match for the "x giant" outside.
The medicine has been working furiously, activating the human body's ultimate potential.
At this moment, Lulu had veins all over her body and looked very uncomfortable.
In the last moment before his mind fell into a rage, he looked at his parents for the last time and said stupidly: "Mom, Dad, this time, I won't run away again..."
"My idiot..."
Hearing this, Lulu's parents could no longer stop the rolling eyes, and burst into tears.
Silly son, why did you sacrifice your life in vain when you knew you were defeated?
Before they could say anything more, at this moment, there was a sharp sound of tearing metal, which hurt their eardrums.
A behemoth violently opened the steel roof, and sunlight shone into the sealed warehouse.
Raymond looked up and saw a two-headed monster more than thirty meters tall suddenly appeared in front of him.
Obviously, this is the biochemical monster secretly created by the World Government - the "X Giant".
At this moment, "Dr. H", the minister of the War Department of the World Headquarters, was standing on the shoulders of giants, overlooking Raymond and others in the warehouse.
"Tsk tsk, the big fish are still there..."
This middle-aged man who looked like a bad guy snorted coldly and showed a sinister smile. He greeted him warmly: "Oh, Lulu! My dear disciple, long time no see. ..."
