The narrow and seemingly round tip of the pen becomes extremely sharp under the influence of power and speed.
The attacker who thought he came behind Jason silently had the pen tip inserted into his eye before he could react -
Scarlet bloom.
"ah!"
The attacker let out a cry of pain, and the dagger he was about to stab at Jason's vest paused uncontrollably.
Jason, who was sitting there, reached back with his right palm and grabbed the opponent's wrist where he stabbed the dagger from top to bottom.
The other party struggled subconsciously and had to withdraw his wrist.
However, Jason's palm did not move at all, and his fingers were like a vise, tightly pinching into the opponent's 'wrist'.
Crunch, crunch.
The wrist bones groaned.
The pain stimulated the attacker again. With his only remaining eye, he stared fiercely at Jason, then raised his foot and kicked Jason in the back.
When the toes were less than 10 centimeters from Jason's back.
Clang!
A flash of cold light highlighted the toe of the man's shoe.
A 3 cm long, paper-thin dagger appeared there, with a slight fishy smell on it.
poison!
Seeing that Jason's dagger was about to touch him, a hint of pleasure appeared in the fierceness in the attacker's eyes.
He realized that this blow was unexpected!
He has practiced countless times and killed many opponents.
He believed that it would be the same when facing the opponent Jason!
He seemed to have seen Jason falling to the ground, wailing and dying.
It has green snake venom smeared on it!
Seal your throat at the sight of blood!
Just a little is enough to kill three adults!
The distance was getting closer, but the ferocity and pleasure in the attacker's eyes froze at this moment.
Jason stood up from his seat.
Then, he grabbed the opponent's wrist with his right hand and tugged and flicked it!
Bang!
In the mist, the man was hit hard on the small desk in front of Jason. With a click, the desk turned into pieces, and then, there was a collision with the roof of the car.
Amidst the dull sound, the solid roof of the car dented, and the man spurted out a mouthful of blood.
But before he could react, he took off again.
Jason turned around and threw the attacker into the air, and his right hand that grabbed the opponent's wrist was released at this time.
But this does not mean that Jason has let the other person go.
It’s just that he changed the place to grab it: the ankle!
As the attacker continued to rise, his broad palm accurately grasped the opponent's ankle. Without any hesitation, Jason used all his strength and slammed down hard.
Bang!
With a muffled sound that was no less impressive than before, the attacker sank deep into the soil.
This time, the other party vomited blood again and twitched all over.
Obviously he won't survive.
Standing on the roof of the car, Jason could confirm this.
But the matter is not over yet!
A slight, abnormal sound appeared under the cold storage truck, and the next moment——
boom!
In the huge explosion, the several-ton cold storage truck and Jason turned into a ball of fire and flew directly into the sky.
A hidden figure watched all this.
"Reckless man."
"Fighting requires brains."
This figure pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said with disdain.
Then, he turned around and prepared to leave.
The task has been completed.
He is going to receive the reward.
But the moment he turned around, cold sweat broke out all over his body.
A tall, strong figure appeared behind him at some point, his face covered in a hockey mask, and his cold eyes were staring at him.
"Wait a moment……"
puff!
Without talking nonsense to the other party, Jason raised his hand and struck with a knife.
As the head flew up, a hissing sound could be heard in the canopy of trees overhead.
Three dark green venomous snakes jumped out from the dense leaves and headed straight for Jason.
Jason raised his head and looked at the three venomous snakes.
Suddenly, the three poisonous snakes froze in mid-air.
A sense of oppression at the top of the food chain made them dare not move and let their bodies fall to the ground.
The snake controller not far away looked at this scene with dull eyes.
impossible!
This was his first thought.
escape!
This was his second thought.
He had never met anyone like Jason.
He actually made his venomous snake lose control with just his eyes.
You must know that these poisonous snakes were carefully cultivated by him using various resources and secret techniques. They are not only immune to common methods of dealing with snakes, but also ignore mysterious techniques such as 'expulsion'.
It's his big killer!
But there is no point in going now!
His strongest means are no longer useful, so naturally he can no longer stay.
As for the three carefully bred venomous snakes?
Although I feel distressed, his life is not as important!
The snake controller turned around and ran away.
Extremely fast!
But Jason's knife is faster!
puff!
The broad-bladed short-handled machete flew out of his hand and stabbed directly from the snake controller's chest.
The huge force brought the opponent's body and nailed it directly to a thick tree trunk.
Jason walked over, pulled out his knife, and glanced around.
After confirming that there were no more attackers, he started to use [Protect from Evil] to check them one by one, and then returned to his previous location.
The cold storage truck has long since become a wreck.
Along with his communicator, the spice jar and the book he just finished were all destroyed in the explosion.
This is a great loss!
Especially the latter, that is his hard work!
You have to get compensation.
Standing there, Jason waited quietly.
He knew what was happening here, and there was no way he could hide it from anyone who was interested.
In fact, about three minutes later, he heard the sound of the propeller.
Cortana stepped off the helicopter and looked at Jason standing there safe and sound, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Master Chief, it's great that you're okay."
Cortana said sincerely.
Whether from a personal point of view or from the perspective of the Ground Investigation Bureau, Cortana did not want anything to happen to Jason.
For this reason, she made all kinds of preparations.
But the accident still happened.
Jason didn't speak, but pointed at the corpses on the ground and in the distance. He believed that Cortana understood what he meant.
Jason believed that after he showed enough value, the 'Ground Investigation Bureau' would attach great importance to him.
Naturally, corresponding protective measures will appear.
The appearance of these completely human attackers is quite worth pondering.
Cortana didn't say anything and started checking immediately.
‘Double Dagger Killer’.
‘Bombmania’.
‘Snake Controller’.
Cortana quickly confirmed the identities of the three people, and the liaison officer's face became extremely ugly.
These three people are all killers!
Killer for money!
They should not and cannot be here!
As Jason guessed, after Jason showed the ability to identify 'lurkers', and after leaving yesterday, Cortana asked Lieutenant General Ful Reno for instructions, and then in the name of the 'Ground Reconnaissance Bureau'
An "official letter" was sent to all the forces both openly and secretly.
In particular, some special organizations have received special attention from her.
But now there is an accident, what does this mean?
Someone ignored the orders of the 'Ground Investigation Bureau'.
And it is impossible for such people to exist on the ground.
Unless they defected to the Sabi Stars!
"Rape!"
Cortana gritted her teeth and said.
"Master Chief, don't worry."
"I must find this bastard!"
"Then……"
"Kill him with my own hands!"
Cortana said angrily.
For Cortana, who is a soldier, there are two things that are most intolerable.
First, the sacrifice of comrades.
Second, the betrayer.
Now someone is threatening her comrades, and the person who threatens is a traitor.
Cortana is already preparing to deal with the opponent in the most ruthless way.
For example: Gunshot!
Jason shook his head.
"Not necessarily a traitor."
Jason said this.
"The soldiers who have returned to the 'surface' are all under close surveillance. It is impossible for them to do anything like offering rewards!"
Cortana said truthfully.
"What about earlier?"
Jason shook his head again, turned his head, looked at the liaison officer in front of him, and asked in a calm voice.
"Earlier?!"
Suddenly, Cortana's expression changed again.
Moreover, compared to before, his face this time was even more ugly.
The 'lurkers' of the Sabi people are not only the warriors who returned to the 'ground' before, but also... others!
Or earlier, the Sabi people sent out ‘lurkers’!
It’s just that they don’t know it!
But now it has been exposed because of Jason's importance.
What does this mean?
This shows that among the warriors who returned to the ground, there are a considerable number of 'lurkers'!
What was exposed before is just the tip of the iceberg!
Otherwise, these Sabi people will not take risks!
Cortana came to this conclusion without any hesitation, and directly turned on the microcomputer on her wrist and started to contact Lieutenant General Rael Fourno.
Jason remained silent without saying a word.
He trusted Cortana and the general's expertise.
Even without his accurate judgment, he should be able to lock in a rough range.
And after?
Naturally, he identified it himself.
I hope my meritorious deeds can be enough to exchange for a ‘Spartan’ potion.
Although the last potion has not been purchased yet, the faint smell on Cortana's body has already told Jason that the taste of the 'Spartan' potion should be quite good.
After about five minutes, Cortana ended her conversation with the general.
"Master Chief, the General thanks you for your service on the ground."
"This time the meritorious service will be doubled."
Cortana said truthfully.
The double meritorious service made Jason have a good impression of this general he had never met before.
At least, this is a person who knows rewards and punishments clearly.
The other party knows how to deal with a person who shows value.
This is enough for Jason at this stage.
After a pause, Cortana continued to add.
"Of course, there are also these compensations."
Cortana said as she looked at the remains of the cold storage truck.
This is not preferential treatment, but compensation that should be taken responsibility for.
"The cold storage truck was given to me by Vince. There is nothing valuable in it, except..."
When Jason said this, he stopped deliberately, with helplessness and sadness in his eyes.
Cortana noticed the look.
"Except what?"
Cortana asked.
"Except for the book manuscript I just finished."
"I originally promised the editor that the book would be published by the end of the month."
"This time, it looks like I'm going to break the promise again."
As Jason spoke, he shook his head rather lonely, and then let out a deep sigh: "After that, I may have to face repeated assassinations by the Sabi people. Under this premise, books are fundamental.
It’s impossible to continue writing.”
"But I really wanted to write it."
"After all, this is my hard work for the past ten years."
Hearing Jason's sigh, Cortana couldn't help but feel the same.
She could clearly feel the helplessness in Jason's heart.
Giving up his most beloved literary work for the sake of the ground... How painful is the Master Chief at this moment?
Cortana thought and couldn't help but speak.
"Master Chief, you can repeat it and I will help you organize it."
"repeat?"
"I can't remember the content of the manuscript."
Jason said calmly while picking up the 'Free Strike'.
"In order to make it, I used a certain ritual, and the price of performing this ritual was that I temporarily lost the memory of the thing I loved most - this time will vary according to its use."
"Judging from the current situation, I will probably lose this memory completely."
Jason sighed again as he spoke.
"It is?"
Cortana asked.
"It is a special prop I made to better identify 'lurkers'. It is too slow and inefficient to identify 'lurkers' by conventional means."
"So, I made it."
Jason explained.
Cortana, who has already been exposed to the 'mysterious side', has no doubts.
She knows that making some special props will inevitably come with a price.
And the production of props that can detect 'lurkers' will inevitably be more expensive.
Lose your memory of the things you love?
Cortana looked at Jason, whose face was covered by a mask but whose eyes were full of pain, and she said almost subconsciously: "Master Chief, let me help you finish this book!"
"Although I have never written a book, I am very sensitive to words."
"If I work hard, I should be half as good as you."
Success!
My mind-shifting writing method was successful!
Jason breathed a sigh of relief.
If possible, he absolutely does not want to use the 'forbidden technique' of 'mind transfer writing method', but he really has no talent for writing.
Sure enough, my swordsmanship talent is too strong, does it affect others?
Jason felt sorry for Cortana in his heart, and kept his eyes as before.
"May I?"
"Will it affect your normal life?"
he asked pretending to be hesitant.
"Of course not!"
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Cortana said solemnly.
She was determined to write this book.
We can't let the Master Chief's hard work go to waste!
"I remember I seemed to have written an outline... It should be on the desk in my apartment. Although I can't remember the content, you can expand based on it."
Jason said.
"Okay, I'll find it right away, and then read it carefully."
After Cortana finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the helicopter.
Instead of leaving, he took out a metal suitcase and turned around again and walked towards Jason.
"Master Chief, this is the 'Spartan' potion!"
"I recommend you get the injection right away."
"It will have a significant effect on improving your strength."
Cortana said, opening the box.
Inside the box is a syringe as thick as an index finger and only 5 centimeters long.
The light blue liquid flowing inside exudes the smell of 'food'.
Jason raised his hand to pick up the 'food'. Cortana on the side was immediately ready to explain the 'Spartan' potion to Jason, but at this moment, a figure quietly appeared on the hillside in the distance. appeared.
This figure carried a square and long 'box' on its shoulders.
The corners are smoothed, the exterior is painted black, and there are four dark holes on the front and rear sides.
When the setting sun shone on the entrance of the cave, an inexplicable sense of ferocity filled the air.
Especially when this figure pulled the trigger.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The four rockets shot out in no particular order, emitting dazzling tail flames and heading straight for Jason.
