Volume 2: Boundless Walker Chapter 11: Fortress!
After the cloaked Astrid killed the overseer with a single blow, she did not stay on the platform for long. She ran towards the stairs and slid down the railing at high speed.
"Art? Toon? Ann? Steak?"
As soon as she stood firmly on her feet, Astrid shouted loudly at the group of rubbish.
Unfortunately, none of those rubbish responded.
Instead, after looking at each other for a few seconds, they came over with shovels in hand.
Even through the gas mask, Astrid could sense the ill will in the eyes of these old scumbags.
Without further ado, Astrid raised her hand and stabbed.
puff!
After the neck of the nearest garbage man was cut, Astrid was as agile as a cat and hid behind the body. The shovel that followed hit the body hard, but did not hurt Astrid at all. Instead, Astrid took the opportunity to cut the ankles of the two people and jumped out of the encirclement.
"I have received systematic training and have rich practical experience!"
Goethe sat on a high platform, eating steak and white bread, watching the battle below and giving fair comments.
When he was in his hometown, Goethe's most commonly used weapons were daggers and short knives, but the short knife skills of the woman in front of him were far superior to those of the instructor who taught him at the time.
Or to be more precise, even if his instructor at that time came, he would be killed in a few moves in front of the woman in front of him.
"At least expert level!"
Taking the [Unarmed Combat] above the extraordinary as a reference, Goethe added his evaluation.
Then Goethe ate faster.
Not only will the battle below be over soon, but also because a fully armed team is approaching here - in the field of vision of [Blood Raven Spirit], Goethe can see clearly that this team of seven people are wearing armor mainly made of leather and inlaid with metal. Although it is called armor, it looks shabby, and the guns in their hands are also crudely made and simple, but at the end of the team there is a 2.5-meter-tall mecha man.
Different from the tattered and outdated robots in the team, this robot was freshly painted, and the miniature machine gun in its hand was shining with the light of a powerful weapon.
"Cold weapons, homemade pistols mixed with miniature machine guns?"
“What era is this?”
After Goethe ate the last piece of beef, he packed up half a bottle of wine and disappeared into the darkness again, holding the Shadow Snake Dagger.
And Astrid, who was below, killed another trash old man at this moment.
This is the eighth one!
The remaining dozen or so rubbish guys no longer dared to come forward.
They began to retreat.
Astrid did not chase after him. Although she did not find her partner, as a deal, she had to fulfill her promise - a time bomb that looked like a test tube with some liquid inside was placed on the incinerator nearby by Astrid.
Astrid began to run quickly in the opposite direction.
10 seconds later——
boom!
The huge explosion caused the entire ground to shake.
One incinerator collapsed completely and kept crashing into other incinerators.
The raging flames inside sprayed out in all directions, and when they splashed onto the garbage old men, they immediately vaporized the entire person.
However, such high temperature did not cause any changes in the ground and the surrounding walls.
When the flames splashed to the ground, a layer of pale blue light emerged from the ground and walls. Although it was fleeting, it quickly extinguished the flames. Under the pale blue light, the incinerators that were hit were safe and sound.
"Is it a supernatural power?!"
Goethe couldn't help but narrow his eyes as he watched all this.
This scene looks very much like 'supernatural power'!
But there are some differences, just like the difference between pure milk and sweet milk, they look almost the same, but the taste is different.
"Is this the extraordinary power that is unique to the 'secret realm' before my eyes?"
"still……"
Goethe guessed, but he didn't slow down, following the woman to a higher place.
The other side chose a completely different path from that armed force.
Both sides missed it perfectly.
Moreover, the other party seemed to be extremely familiar with this place, and he made the choice at every fork in the road and every staircase without thinking.
When turning a corner again, the other party stopped.
Goethe then hid not far away.
Goethe heard the other person counting softly.
one two three!
When the number 'three' appeared, a patrol appeared.
He did not enter this passage, but walked straight through it after inspecting it.
After confirming safety, the other party took action again.
Astrid rushed out at an extremely fast speed. Her destination was the passage opposite. As long as she entered that passage, she would be able to leave this "war fortress" smoothly!
However, Astrid had just rushed out, and her instinct developed from fighting made her realize something was wrong instantly.
Without hesitation, Astrid stepped back.
Behind her was a row of bullet holes.
Da da da!
The patrol team that had just left came back again, pointing their guns at the passage, firing bullets intensively, hitting the passage, forcing Astrid to retreat to the corner to avoid the bullets.
“Damn it!”
Astrid cursed under her breath.
Now she had no time to think about why the patrol team returned. She only knew that she had less than a minute to get rid of the patrol team and enter the opposite passage.
One minute later, not only will the opposite passage be closed, but the pursuers will also arrive.
She will be attacked from both sides!
At that time, there was no possibility of her surviving!
But rush out now?
That's also seeking death!
"what to do?"
Astrid's face hidden under her hood showed signs of struggle.
At this time——
"Shall we make a deal?"
Goethe, who had been following, spoke up.
Astrid was startled and turned around immediately, swinging the dagger in her hand, but Goethe grabbed her wrist immediately.
Firm and cannot be broken!
After realizing that she could not break free from Goethe's strength, Astrid immediately let go, and the dagger fell immediately. She raised her hand to grab the dagger, and her body had adjusted to the best posture for exerting force.
As long as he caught the dagger, Astrid would immediately stab Goethe in the abdomen.
But to her surprise, Goethe caught the dagger first and put it on her neck with his backhand.
"I've watched 'Seven Seasons of On the Road'!"
After Goethe complained silently in his heart, he spoke again.
"Shall we make a deal?"
This time, Astrid, with the knife at her neck, was quite cooperative.
"What deal?"
The other party asked.
"Take me away from here, and I'll help you deal with the guys outside."
Goethe said.
Although Goethe released the [Blood Crow Spirit] as soon as he entered the "secret realm" in front of him, the time was too short and the building he was in was too large, so the [Blood Crow Spirit] did not detect the edge at all.
Instead, he saw a lot of pursuers coming here.
Unlike the patrol teams outside, each of these pursuers consists of seven people, plus a robot carrying a minigun.
Undoubtedly, this kind of staffing is standard for this building.
This naturally made Goethe even more fearful.
You know, with [Desperate Gaze], Goethe is not afraid of siege, but the scope of siege definitely does not include robots.
Do robots have hearts?
Goethe's scalp tingled at the thought of facing a robot carrying a miniature machine gun.
Especially since there was more than one premise, Goethe knew very well that if he was surrounded by these robots, he would only have death left.
So , I must leave!
As for being a garbage old man?
Not to mention what happened, what kind of treatment would he, a useless old man, who was the only one left alive, encounter?
The mere thought of the 'cockroach energy bar' as food made Goethe completely give up this option.
Astrid looked at the old garbage man in front of her.
The gas mask and similar attire made it easy for Astrid to recognize that this was one of the garbage guys in the power room just now. However, unlike those garbage guys who were willing to be slaves, the guy in front of her obviously had his own ideas.
But no matter what the idea is, Astrid will not refuse someone who can solve the current dilemma.
"good!"
Astrid nodded.
Goethe immediately gave the order, and the [Blood Crow Spirit] took action.
The patrol, armed with homemade pistols, was no match.
Five people were killed in two breaths.
Until their death, these five people had no idea what had attacked them.
When Astrid walked out of the hiding passage and saw the corpse on the ground, she looked at Goethe with solemnity and fear in her eyes.
"Psychic?!"
The lady screamed in her heart but did not show it. She just quickened her speed and rushed to the opposite passage.
As before, the lady led the way and Goethe followed behind.
The only difference is that this time Goethe doesn't need to hide.
After turning another corner, Astrid stopped.
In front of her was a long and narrow, dimly lit corridor with metal doors on both sides of the corridor. There were combination locks on the doors. Astrid walked straight to the fourth door on the left.
Drop, drop, drop!
After the unique sound of the electronic keys——
"The password is correct!"
"The door will open!"
"Warrior, I wish you a pleasant journey!"
Amidst the electronic synthesized sound, the metal door slowly opened.
There is a bright light behind the door.
Under the light, a black modified six-wheeled muscle car appeared in front of Goethe.
The muscle car was covered with steel plates on the original basis, making it look even heavier. There was also a machine gun on the top and a rocket launcher on the back seat.
“Follow me!”
Astrid said this, she walked towards the driver's seat. Goethe took the bazooka and sat in the back seat.
"Hold on tight!"
Astrid fastened her seatbelt and reminded Goethe.
After seeing Goethe fasten his seatbelt securely around his body, Astrid pressed the button on the side of the jeep's steering wheel.
Card!
The floor opens directly onto the ground.
The jeep's engine roared like a wild beast.
Buzz!
The engine roared, the car body shook, and dust flew.
In the sky full of yellow sand, darkness enveloped everything.
Not the night.
But shadows.
Endless shadows filled Goethe's head.
With a vision four times greater than that of an ordinary person, he could vaguely see a large piece of black metal above his head in the yellow sand.
Suddenly a guess appeared in Goethe's mind.
Therefore, when the shadow disappeared and the scorching sunlight shone on his body, he turned his head and looked back.
Suddenly——
A mountain-like fortress came into view.
Supported by huge tracks, the fortress is moving forward quickly like a tank.
“Is it spectacular?”
Astrid, who was driving, looked at the fortress through the rearview mirror, with a similar expression to Goethe's. The lady said to herself, "Although I don't want to admit it, every time I see the 'Fortress of Doom', I am shocked by it - it is worthy of being the masterpiece of the 'Prophet' Modeus!"
