Volume 3 Chapter 263: Vigilance and Counterattack from Beyond Civilization
Boom boom boom, explosions continued to sound above the battlefield.
Moss held Kyle under his arm and, following the directions given by Mello, he kept moving between different areas of the battlefield, dodging the shells that landed nearby.
During this time, Kyle would scream from time to time, but Moss didn't care at all.
That's how newcomers are, he's used to it.
Thinking of this, he subconsciously glanced at Lin Xu and the others.
Well, it seems that not all newcomers are like this.
During the period, they also encountered some federal soldiers who were holding guns and wearing exoskeleton assistive devices.
Without Lin Xu's help, Moss easily dealt with the enemies blocking his way.
Soon the group arrived near another team and found the team hiding in a cellar.
"I was wondering who it was. It turns out to be you, Moss! It seems that the quality of the new members in your team is quite good. They can even keep up with you and Melo." The leader of another team of conquerors, who seemed to know Moss, spoke with a forced smile on his face.
At the same time, his eyes swept over Lin Xu, Miss Qiu and Nan Zhu, completely ignoring Kyle who was held under Moss's arm.
"Bart? I didn't expect to meet you in this mission." Moss's face suddenly turned gloomy.
It seems that although the two parties know each other, their relationship is not good.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that either. But we are not rivals this time. It's a pleasure to cooperate with you." Bart said with a smile.
"Hmph, you are the only senior member left in your team again?" Moss said as he looked at the six newcomers behind Bart.
"Yeah, my teammates have never had good luck." Bart shrugged.
"How can I have good luck as your teammate?" Moss said in a sarcastic tone.
After the two of them exchanged some sarcasm, they began to discuss matters related to the mission.
"Since the mission this time is a coordinated operation, why don't we find a place to hide and wait for others to complete the main mission, then we will naturally be able to complete this mission." Bart expressed his plan.
"Since it's a collaborative task, it must be difficult. It's already difficult to complete the task. If someone is lazy, it will be even more difficult to complete the task." Moss said dissatisfiedly.
"So what? It's nothing more than a failed mission. Not to mention that you don't even have the points to forgive a failed mission! I can't risk my life knowing that this mission is not easy." Bart shrugged.
"You have enough points to forgive one failure, what about them?" Moss glanced at the six newcomers behind Bart.
"They, let's pray together that someone will complete the mission! Otherwise, let them fight on their own. Do you think a few ordinary people can play a role on such a battlefield? They are just cannon fodder. It's better for them to hide and leave it to fate. The chances of survival will be higher." Bart said confidently.
"That's right. We also feel that we won't be of any use on a battlefield like this. We might as well hide and wait for others to complete the mission. If we're lucky, we can complete the mission. If we're unlucky, it's better than rushing out directly and getting killed now." A newcomer behind Bart expressed his opinion carefully.
The other newcomers also nodded.
For a moment, Moss was speechless.
It's a pity that things in the world often don't change according to one's will. Just when Mosdu began to consider whether he should just look for another team.
Another team has already found this place.
No, not another team, but another seven or eight teams, dozens of people in total found this place.
And it seems that these seven or eight teams are under the leadership of a leading team.
When Moss and Bart saw those people, their faces changed immediately.
"God of Death Ashim, why is he on this kind of mission?" Bart's tone was full of disbelief.
"Is this person famous?" Lin Xu asked Moss.
"It's very famous. The conqueror teams in the Domination Domain are divided into trainee and official teams. For example, our current team is a trainee team, and the Death Squad led by the Death Squad led by Ashim is one of the best official teams. And since even the Death Squad appears in this mission, it seems that this mission is countless times more difficult than I imagined before." Moss said solemnly.
Bart had obviously thought of this as well, and his expression was equally solemn.
"Okay, I think the senior ones among you should know me. Next you can choose to obey my orders, or be killed by me in advance. Tell me your choice." The high and mighty God of Death Ashim swept his dark eyes without whites over Bart and Moss. It was obvious that he had no intention of wasting time talking to these two teams that were not even formal teams.
If he hadn't needed some cannon fodder in the next operation, he wouldn't even bother to say these words.
"It's a pleasure to serve you, Lord Ashim." Bart immediately replied solemnly without any hesitation.
Moss subconsciously glanced at Lin Xu, and seeing that Lin Xu didn't react, he nodded in agreement.
In this way, the Death Squad easily incorporated all the teams present, and the number of people they controlled once reached sixty or seventy.
Although most of them are newcomers, it is better than nothing.
"Martha, are there any other teams nearby?" Ashim had no interest in saying a word to Bart and Mosto, but instead asked his men in the same team.
She was a woman with a black veil covering her eyes, wearing a hollow classical armor, and carrying a bow behind her.
"There are no other teams on the battlefield within a hundred kilometers. If the Lord has not deployed teams outside the battlefield, these are all." Martha, whose eyes were covered by a black veil, said in a very affirmative tone.
It can be seen that she should be the investigator of the Death Squad.
"Very good, then the action can begin." Ashim nodded and decided.
Then the assignment of tasks began.
"Doro, lead your men to attack the federal army head-on and attract their attention."
"Martha, take your men to sneak into the Crow Fortress, and when the federal army is dispatched, take the opportunity to blow up the Crow Fortress."
"Baker, go and pass the message to the rebels and ask them to occupy the Kro Fortress after it is blown up."
Ashim assigned tasks to each of his men except himself. It was unknown whether he thought he did not need to take any action or he deliberately did not mention it.
"Lord Ashim, don't we need to contact the rebels in advance and cooperate in the operation?" A senior member of a trainee team whispered his opinion.
"I don't need trash that gets in the way." Ashim looked at the man with his dark eyes and said with a double meaning.
The heavy pressure immediately spread from Ashim's body in all directions. Bart and Moss' legs were trembling just by being affected, not to mention the man who was hit hard. He fell to his knees with a thud, and only managed to keep from falling down by supporting himself with his hands. Cold sweat was pouring down his body.
In just a few seconds, it felt like several years had passed. As Ashim withdrew the pressure, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"I don't want anyone to question my decision next time." Ashim said calmly.
So, the action began.
Nearly ten teams at the scene were divided into two parts, led by Doro and Martha, two of Ashim's men.
As for Baker, he acted alone. He only needed to inform the rebels of the news and did not need to bring anyone with him.
Among these two groups, Dora, who was responsible for the frontal attack, had the most men, and a large number of newcomers were assigned to him because he needed enough cannon fodder.
Martha had fewer people on her side because they had to infiltrate the site, so she only brought seven or eight senior personnel with her.
Bart, Moss and Mello were all among them. Especially after knowing that Mello had the basic skill of prophecy, Martha looked .
At the same time, for some unknown reason, Martha selected Lin Xu, Nanzhu and Miss Qiu into the team that originally did not need new members.
Moss, who was a little anxious at first about having to separate from Lin Xu, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master Lin Xu, why did that girl named Martha choose us?" Nanzhu asked Lin Xu in his mind with some confusion.
"Who knows? It doesn't matter what her plan is. As long as the task is completed, it's fine." Lin Xu didn't care.
Since you are at different heights, you will naturally look at problems from different angles.
No matter what the other party is planning, Lin Xu's goal is only to dominate. He is not on the same level as these conquerors. Even if they have some ideas in secret, what can they do?
"Yes, since Moss said that Ashim's Death Squad is so powerful, I hope they can live up to their reputation and complete the mission sooner." Nanzhu looked at Ashim with admiration.
"Okay, it's time for us to go." Lin Xu reminded.
At this time, Martha had already led the people she selected towards the direction of Kro Fortress.
At the same time, the burly man Dora who stayed in place took out a large number of powered exoskeleton armors from the space equipment and required all the newcomers to wear them.
Suddenly, the eyes of the newlyweds, who had originally looked as pale as death, lit up.
After all, with the protection of powered exoskeleton armor, the chance of survival on the battlefield increases instantly.
It seems that even if the Death Squad treats them as cannon fodder, they hope that the cannon fodder can play a greater role, otherwise they would not equip them with powered exoskeleton armor.
While the newcomers were happily changing into their powered exoskeleton armor, only Kyle had a bitter look on his face as he watched Lin Xu and his group leave.
He didn't know whether he could live to see Lin Xu and his companions again. Originally, there should have been no danger in following Lin Xu, but now he was forced to be cannon fodder.
Of course, he didn't have the courage to come forward and expose Lin Xu now, so he could only pray that everything went well.
In this way, Lin Xu and others followed Martha, and surrounded by a circle of light summoned by Martha, they successfully passed through the federal army's defense line and arrived at the Clo Fortress in the rear.
At the same time, on the front battlefield, Dora led the newcomers to attack the federal army.
Lin Xu looked back and saw a huge robot that was dozens of meters tall, galloping across the battlefield, attracting all the firepower of the federal army and constantly destroying the federal army's positions.
That was the robot that Dora summoned and drove himself.
In comparison, the role of those new cannon fodders wearing powered exoskeleton armor is probably not even one-tenth of that of Dora alone.
To put it bluntly, cannon fodder is just cannon fodder.
Just like Lin Xu and others, although there are many senior colleagues, for Martha, these people are nothing but cannon fodder.
After entering the Clo Fortress, Martha began to arrange for the senior personnel to install the small nuclear warheads prepared in advance at various key points in the Clo Fortress.
Bart, Moss and Mello were all sent out to carry out the mission. In the end, only Martha, Lin Xu, Nanzhu and Miss Qiu were left at the scene.
By now it was obvious that she had deliberately sent people away.
This time even Lin Xu became a little curious. It stood to reason that unless they were also high-dimensional beings, the other party would not be able to notice the abnormality in him.
At this time, Martha took the initiative to speak.
"Are you really new here?"
"What else?" Nanzhu looked at Martha curiously.
Martha, who had her eyes covered, felt Nanzhu's gaze, but she did not get angry at the gaze of a newcomer.
"I don't know, but I can feel that you are different from the other conquerors and feel out of place." Martha continued.
"What do you want to say?" Nanzhu continued to ask curiously.
"You must be spies from outside the realm!" Martha said with certainty.
"Alien domain? You mean, another domain different from the dominant domain?" Lin Xu understood what she meant.
"Yes, I have heard of you." Martha nodded.
"You have a very sharp sense." Lin Xu praised without commenting, neither admitting nor objecting.
It is indeed admirable that one can detect their differences simply by feeling them.
In Martha's eyes, this was undoubtedly a tacit agreement.
Lin Xu, on the other hand, detected another message from Martha's words. It seemed that the civilizations beyond civilization were not always friendly with each other. There might be various competitions and struggles among them. Otherwise, how could there be spies?
"Please rest assured, no one else will notice it except me, not even Ashim." Martha said to reassure Lin Xu and the others.
"It seems that you are not as loyal to Achim as you appear." Lin Xu said with a smile.
"We are just teammates, but he obviously thinks of me as his subordinate." Martha replied calmly.
"So what is your purpose in telling us all this?" Nanzhu continued to ask curiously.
"Since you are foreign spies, you should have a way to help me escape from the dominant domain!" Martha said what she was thinking.
"Escape from the dominance domain? We do have a way." Lin Xu nodded.
" What price should I pay?" Martha said, trying to suppress her excitement.
"This is a matter for the future. Let's complete this task first." Lin Xu said calmly.
"Okay." Martha nodded.
After hesitating for a while, she finally spoke up to remind him.
"In fact, there is another reason why I am sure you are spies. Achim received an additional mission from the Overlord to find the hidden traitor, so he has not taken any action and has been observing everyone. You have to be careful, Achim is very strong, and you will be dead if you are found."
Martha's voice was filled with worry.
She knew Ashim well enough, so she became more worried about Lin Xu and the others.
