When dealing with extraordinary events, the three major churches need to avoid involving ordinary people. They often need to make ordinary people fall asleep or create a combat environment that will not disturb the real world, and then use sealed objects to deal with it.
This is often because extraordinary events often occur within populous cities, and the church also needs to avoid letting the extraordinary world appear in front of ordinary people.
However, MI9 does not need to take care of so much. Their status is much higher than the church team that can only appear as a special police department, representing the Loen military. Especially since the Rhoside Islands are now on the eve of war, the army has taken over
Many focus areas.
With permission, in order to combat the momentum of pirates this time, they will deliberately create momentum and create a scene where pirates are vulnerable, in order to increase the trust of the people of the Rhoad Islands in the navy.
Therefore, Klein, who followed Brigadier Overton to the dock, saw a scene that was even more exaggerated than the scene played back by the Magic Mirror Arrodes when the Church of Steam explored the Tomb of Amon.
Loen soldiers wearing red jackets, white trousers, and black leather boots carried rifles and dragged artillery. Under the command of MI9 members wearing various masks, they built temporary positions, and boxes of artillery shells were delivered.
Then they were placed aside without even preparing trenches or simple sandbags.
In the dim moonlight, huge airships with dark black paint almost blended into the night. The huge metal blades rotated rapidly, and boxes with organic muzzles, throwing ports and muzzles hung below.
, hovering in the air.
The nearby commanding heights were also occupied by burly soldiers wearing standard military uniforms. They were lying there, holding a thick and long rifle with a complex structure in their hands. There was a huge gray-white mechanical box beside them. There was an obvious difference between the two.
pipe connections.
No sound was heard from the soldiers shuttled back and forth or the airship hovering in the sky, as if there was a barrier between the world they were in and the real world.
This has been done in advance.
Klein, who was no longer a novice, nodded slightly and looked at the soldiers who were advancing and retreating and the cold and silent guns in their hands. This was exactly the way he came up with when he faced Triss in Tingen. Surveillance first.
Instead of getting closer, then mobilize troops and artillery to carry out coverage bombing of the houses or areas where the enemy is hiding.
The opponent will either hide inside and be blown to death, or flee under the gunfire, and then the high-pressure steam rifle shooters guarding the nearby commanding heights will shoot at them in a targeted manner, and finally dispatch their own Beyonders to harvest their heads.
Well, if there are any more...
But compared to the wealthy Steam Church, the bullets and artillery shells of these soldiers are not purification bullets and exorcism artillery shells that are targeted at "living corpses", they are very ordinary.
That's right, even the Church of Steam cannot use more than a dozen cannons for bombing. Although the number of exorcism shells consumed in that way is affordable, the gain outweighs the loss.
Who makes the strongest enemy only Sequence 6!
But this is also very exaggerated!
Klein calmly looked at Brigadier Overton in his peripheral vision. If his guess was correct, the opponent should be a Sequence 5 "Retribution Knight" of the "Arbiter" path. Although he may not be able to defeat "Steel" by himself,
Maiviti and his team captured them all, but if they deploy some Sequence 6, Sequence 7 will be no problem at all.
However, considering the identity of the other party, it is very likely that he is a newly transferred person. He is not the top leader of MI9 in the Sonia area, but also the second leader. The probability of personally leading the charge is probably very small.
After mobilizing more than a dozen artillery pieces, so many MI9 members came here to warn the pirates?
I'm afraid it's the first time a new official takes office, so I'm afraid something might go wrong...
When he first saw this scene, Klein knew that his operation to solidify Gehrman Sparrow's identity as a crazy adventurer was going to go to waste, and there was no room for him to perform at all!
In order not to expose himself as an Extraordinary of the "Soothsayer" path, and to avoid being suspected by MI9 that he was a member of the "Secret Order" or an Intis intelligence agent, he had already arranged a hunting plan for himself. He even went out to buy it.
I bought a pair of thin leather gloves just to hide the "squirming hunger" on my left hand, but I guess they won't be of use now.
But now that we are clearly ready, why haven’t we started taking action yet?
Just when he was still confused and the action had not yet begun, under the spiritual reminder, he looked to the right and rear, and a young man wearing a formal tuxedo appeared silently at the corner. The man's blond hair was neat and mature, and his hairline was slightly high.
.Has a pair of light blue eyes, handsome appearance, and gentle manner.
When Klein noticed him first, there was a trace of surprise on his face, but he did not stop and continued to move forward silently.
Brigadier General Overton, who noticed Klein's strange movement, also looked behind him and spotted a young man more than 20 meters away. The gentleman glanced at Klein in surprise, and then said expressionlessly:
"Lieutenant Colonel Lu Er'an, the operation is about to begin."
"Okay, the general's order to me is to follow your command."
Lieutenant Colonel Lu Er'an looked polite and respectful, but his tone was clearly alienated.
Klein, who was still hesitating whether to take a few steps back to give them room to communicate, stopped hesitating. This is not in line with the persona of a crazy adventurer!
However, if a lieutenant colonel dared to talk to Ofotong, who was a brigadier general, he should be relying on the general in his mouth... It looked like he was not dressed like a formal soldier. He should be engaged in a job like a secretary or clerk, but he had a middle-level appearance.
If he has the rank of colonel, then the general he is talking about should be at least a lieutenant general, most likely Admiral Aemilius Levitt, the supreme commander of the Central Sunian Navy...
But I seem to have heard from Mr. "Emperor" that this kind of work seems to be performed by personnel from MI9, and they also have the responsibility of supervision...
So this is a subordinate who is clinging to the boss and disobeying his boss!
However, the subsequent development did not go as Klein expected. Except for Brigadier General Overton's initial words, which sounded a bit scolding, he returned to normal and explained his plans one by one.
This combat plan was as expected by Klein. First, mount the cannon, then mount the gun, and finally reap the results. However, the number of pirates hidden in that contact point was slightly more than what he had previously detected.
And that Lieutenant Colonel Lu Er'an seemed to be the real commander, listening to the reports of his subordinates.
Just when the "report" began, "Steel" Maiviti and others who were hiding in the Bayam contact point of the "Golden Dream" also discovered that something was wrong. The surroundings were too quiet!
This is not like before, when soldiers were stationed at the dock, but there was still movement, instead of the dead silence that seems to be filled with countless horrors.
The dark room was filled with the aroma of "Brilliant" wine. Sitting on the single sofa, "Steel" Maiviti crushed a half-drunk bottle, and the broken glass hit him like a steel collision.
The sound also hit the still warm body on the ground. The malt-colored wine mixed with the blood on the ground had a strange beauty under the dim light of the gas light.
The pirates sitting or standing aside fell into silence, but the cruelty in their eyes and the raised corners of their mouths did not reveal the slightest fear, while the man leaning against the wall wearing a boat-shaped hat had no expression on his face.
His face is thin, with sharp edges, and he looks very aggressive. From time to time, he strokes a strand of black hair that half covers his dark green eyes on the left side. His other hand touches the wall behind him, tapping his knuckles on it rhythmically.
Hitting.
Calm Squall, "Abyss" Path Sequence 8 "Broken-Winged Angel", known in ancient times as "The Cold-blooded One".
In the deepest part of the room, a figure opened the door and walked out in a hurry. He was wearing a brown local short robe and a yellow-brown straw hat with a certain dent in the middle on his head. There was a hint of panic on his slightly pale face.
"We have to leave here quickly. Someone interfered with my divination. Now it's not safe here!"
The visitor is the sixth captain of "Admiral of Blood", "Bloody Thorn" Huntley, with a bounty of 3,800 pounds. He is a "Wizard" in sequence 7 of the "Secret Peeper" path. He is good at divination and various ritual magics.
"Unsafe? Just by yourself, Lieyan?" The man with a dark face and protruding and sharp canine teeth licked his lips. He was the third captain of Senior and the "Werewolf" of Sequence 7.
Ten pirate ships including the "Admiral of Blood" and the flagship "Tree of Flesh" were captured by the Zhongsunian Navy. They were either sunk or captured. Although his captains had left long ago, they were also
I no longer have my own pirate ship.
Although this pirate general captured a pirate ship and joined the pirates who were chasing "Vice Admiral Iceberg", half of the crew members could only stay in Bayam, that is, the people concentrated in this house.
"The last message from old Quinn said that Edwina is still wandering on the edge of the Rossed Sea, trying to escape the captain's pursuit. The 'flame' alone cannot threaten us."
The calm Squall's back shook, and he left the wall he was leaning against. A sharp scalpel appeared in his hand at some point, and he jumped and spun around like an acrobatic.
"The situation in Bayam has been very serious recently, and some of us had to hide here. Maybe he was caught by the people from the Church of Storms and told them about this contact point, and we became their prey.
As far as I know, those guys from the Church of Storms will equip themselves with Beyonders of the 'Reader' path for their own survival, and interfering with Huntley's divination should be their method."
"This son of a bitch actually defected to the Church of Storms!" Maiviti growled with crazy eyes.
Although this was just Squall's conjecture, his brain was no better than that of the violent "sailors" and he immediately concluded this reasonable conjecture.
"What can you do?" Maiviti asked directly.
"Obviously, Squall already has a solution." Hunter covered his slightly pale face with a straw hat.
Squall's face was gloomy. If his guess was true, then the "Punisher" was already nearby.
"Although the Church of Storms is very powerful in Bayam, based on their style of conduct, they will only send out at most two 'Punisher' teams, led by one or two deacons, carrying at least two sealed artifacts. Front
We can't deal with the sealed artifacts in their hands, so we can only leave their encirclement before they are ready, make the matter bigger, and let them devote their energy to protecting ordinary people nearby.
Therefore, we need to use a large number of living corpses to attract their attention..."
rest rest rest rest rest rest
The sound of breaking the air was transmitted into the room through the sealed glass window, making Squall, who was describing his plan, widen his eyes. As a pirate, the sound of artillery was naturally familiar to him. He could even hear it after being promoted from a "criminal"
The firing range of artillery.
But this is different from the Church of Storms’ style of doing things!
He could only roar in a low voice:
"Go underground..."
Boom boom boom boom boom
His last voice was drowned in the simultaneous roar of more than a dozen artillery pieces. The whole house immediately shook, the thick beams collapsed immediately, and the room was instantly filled with dust and gravel.
What a spectacle!
Seeing the cannonballs trailing flames smash into the house one after another, causing the surrounding houses to shake, and the fire dragons rising up and spitting fire in the smoke, Klein couldn't help but admire in his heart.
Compared to the Church of Steam, which still carries the "archaeological" mission, MI9 has no regard for it and ruthlessly uses shells one after another to prove who controls the real violence!
At first, Klein was worried about whether it would affect the ordinary people around him, but through the cooperation of Lieutenant Colonel Lurian and Brigadier Overton, they directly used an extraordinary version of the "Muggle Expelling Curse", which automatically kept ordinary people nearby away from that place.
This area left ample space for artillery fire to clear the ground.
The bombing continued, and several houses near the impact point were directly collapsed!
But there was still no reaction inside, as if there was no "Iron" Maiviti inside.
Three minutes later, the artillery fire finally ended.
The soldier held the repeating rifle on his shoulder in his hand and aimed at the ruins burning with raging fire. The airship began to descend to a suitable height. A six-barreled machine gun protruded from the machine gun muzzle. The steam high-pressure rifle shooter occupied the commanding heights.
They also pointed their guns at the past, searching for possible enemies.
Suddenly, the flames burning on the ruins seemed to be controlled by someone, flying around with unburned wood. Although it was still dozens of meters away from the area where the soldiers were, it still made people nervous.
The soldiers were either aiming at the ruins or at the burning wood that fell to the ground and fired.
But in the next second, the wood instantly burned to ashes and turned into gray-white smoke that covered the surrounding area. It was difficult to see clearly what was going on inside. Only silhouettes of people could be vaguely seen, which attracted a lot of bullets.
Brigadier General Ofotong, who had an ugly face, narrowed his eyes, making the bullet-shaped scar near his eyebrows even more hideous:
"They are underground! All soldiers stop shooting, MI9 people follow me!"
He bent his knees, lowered his upper body slightly, and rushed forward like a heavy tank, crushing the concrete floor.
"Why are there always accidents? Isn't it possible in this world to clean up the ground with gunfire?"
Klein adjusted his glasses, which reflected his cold gaze, tugged on his gloves, and followed Brigadier Overton like a stroll.
Lieutenant Colonel Lu Er'an, the blond secretary, stood there with his hands behind his back, his eyes swept over the MI9 personnel, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and he saw Klein, who had disappeared from the spot and then reappeared in the flames to avoid the thorns that were surrounding him.
…
Things were easier than Klein imagined. Although there were some changes, most of the pirates had died under the dense shells. Only a few pirates, such as "Steel" Maiviti, manipulated the living corpses to dig out an underground passage.
, but ultimately failed to escape from the furious Brigadier General Overton.
But after the war, Lieutenant Colonel Lu Er'an suddenly came to him and startled Klein with one sentence:
"Are you a fortune teller?"
Just when Klein was planning to escape while the flames in the distance were not extinguished, the secretary of Admiral Amyrius smiled and said:
"To be precise, it should be 'faceless man', right? Don't worry, this is a good thing. If you do it well, the reward you will get will never be worse than hunting a pirate general!"
