Chapter 7, Important Figures
Fasr smiled and said: "That's right. The year with the Dark Dragon Knight will bring countless benefits to Shali for her entire life, and she is already thirteen years old. If the mutated tissue on her body is not treated soon, it will become permanent. The Dark Dragon Knight has promised to completely cure her. You know, Roxelan does not possess such technology"
Outside the city is certainly not a place for conversation, and the group got back into the vehicle, heading straight for the branch office building. Moments later, they settled in the large conference room on the top floor. All mid-level and senior management personnel from the branch were summoned to attend this meeting
Su Momo dressed neatly, then tidied up everything in the room, eliminating all traces of her existence. After that, she leaped out of the window, disappearing into the vast night.
Just now, at the moment of waking, Su suddenly felt an intense unease. This feeling was almost identical to the one he experienced at the age of ten when he was targeted by several decaying wolves, who followed him for an entire night. Su immediately thought of Li, but Li should not harbor any murderous intent towards him; the sensation he felt when being watched by Li was completely different from the current one.
Li Gaolei crumpled the unlit cigarette into a ball, his voice sounding somewhat hoarse: "What do you want me to do?"
The meeting was brief. Faisal expressed great satisfaction with the achievements of the Northern Division thus far and announced on behalf of the company's senior management that this year's mid-year bonuses would increase by 30%. After the meeting, Faisal retained Rigaley, and the division members, knowing that a secret conversation was about to take place, left with joy, even Lili stood up to leave the conference room. However, the two young men remained quietly seated in the back row of the conference room.
The electronic expert brought by Oberon took out a flat computer that was only one centimeter thick. After opening it and tapping a few times on the screen, a map appeared. According to the markings on the map, there are three settlements within a hundred kilometers surrounding the jungle
Before departing, the commander handed Su a map, which marked a specific location. That place is the headquarters of a mercenary organization called Falcon. The leader of Falcon was once a comrade of the commander. The commander's intention was that if Su was short on money, he might as well try his luck there. No matter where one is, a good sniper is always in demand.
The retinue of Laikona is predominantly focused on combat strength, whereas Oberyn's subordinates include a biochemist, a pilot, a communications and electronics expert, a hunter, and a warrior
Sitting around the table are twelve rugged-looking, fierce men, each resembling tigers or wolves, with prominent scars visible on their exposed skin. The man at the head of the table is already in his forties, and his massive physique is such that he could easily fit Su inside.
Auberon smiled peacefully, not answering the question
In the night, Su left K 7 and headed west
Fasr stood up, paced back and forth a few steps, personally went over to close the large door of the conference room, and returned to sit down at the conference table. He kept wringing his hands, and after a long while, he let out a heavy sigh and said: "During this period, I have been very satisfied with you, but also particularly disappointed."
Su could almost be certain that it was not Li who was tracking him from behind, but a pack of wolves
Shari! Rigor's eyes suddenly widened, and his disheveled short hair seemed to stand on end! However, Faser remained smiling, as if he were completely unaffected by Rigor's imposing presence
In fact, the soft and soothing voice of Su Rou echoed in the room, almost reverberating: "I can say that I am a third-tier sniper"
Rigaolei's vital point was struck once more, his face contorted, breathing heavily like a steam locomotive, burying his head deeply between his hands. After a moment, he finally raised his head and said in a low voice: "Spare Li."
When Faser called out their names, both young men stood up and slightly bowed to Rigor, demonstrating excellent etiquette
Ligaley looked at Laikona. Although the arrogance of this young man was somewhat uncomfortable, his strength was undoubtedly formidable. Even just standing beside him, Ligaley felt a prickling pain on his skin as if being pierced by needles
As the commander of K 7 stated, snipers are highly sought after everywhere, especially in mercenary groups like the Falcons. In an era where long-range explosive weapons are exceedingly rare, snipers serve as the primary force to suppress the opponent's heavy firepower. Therefore, when Su arrived at the Falcons' headquarters and mentioned that he was introduced by the K 7 commander, he was immediately received with the warmest welcome by the leader of the Falcons, who earnestly invited Su to join their ranks
Auberon performed the greeting with utmost seriousness, while Lycona exhibited a subtle air of pride, seemingly especially proud of his family name.
The biochemist interjected, saying: "I believe we should first examine this jungle to determine whether the intruder is not one of the native organisms here, and then proceed to track that individual"
At this moment, Su finally understood that for the first time in his life, he was drunk. The feeling of being intoxicated was quite strange, but what left him speechless was that this sudden drunkenness had actually allowed him to advance his evolution points by a minuscule amount. This seemingly insignificant change represented a significant progress overall, as he had finally accumulated a total of six complete evolution points
At this moment, Laikona stood up and said with a smile, "I am pleased that we can collaborate. Now, I need to know all the details regarding the acquisition of the intruder samples"
In the northern division of Roxerland, Rigor controls all the agents in this area, while Li holds command over the armed forces. Naturally, most agents possess some formidable personal abilities; otherwise, they would not be able to survive in the chaotic and bloody wilderness
The leader is aware that most high-ranking warriors have personal privacy and has sternly ordered everyone not to rummage through Su's belongings or enter Su's room. Particularly, a little girl who wanted to see what Su's face looked like under the bandages not only received a sharp blow to the head but was also punished by missing dinner
Fasr shrugged and said, "There was no need for any major upheaval, nor was it necessary. After all, apart from you, Ross, and Tushutan, no one else knows about this matter. Li is still a child; I don't think she is aware of it. If she hasn't been infected by this... invader, there is no need for her to know."
The establishment of the North District branch of Rockserland has been less than three months, yet under Li's command, there are already five hundred personnel. Rockserland has dispatched nearly half of its elite forces here, clearly not merely for the sake of an N11 base. Under Li's leadership, the greater the number of troops, the more powerful they become. The armed refugees or rioters around Pendulum City may number in the thousands, but Li's 500 elite troops can easily sweep them away.
The young man on the left is tall and imposing, his height nearly matching that of the other, with broad shoulders and a solid build resembling a wall of sandbags. His physique is overall very well-proportioned, exuding a sense of strength. This young man appears to be in his twenties, with a chiseled nose and a pair of eagle-like eyes, and beneath his expressionless face lies an unmistakable air of arrogance.
Su suddenly felt that every word he was about to speak was heavy and required careful consideration
Leikona carefully examined Su's portrait and said, "His physical features are very distinctive, so he should not be difficult to find. Mr. Rigoray, we need to enlist your team of agents to report to us immediately once they have any information about this person. Now, please prepare a few vehicles for us; we will head to Asmo first"
The hunter and Oberyn spent a full half hour searching the small building, ultimately stepping into the room where Su and Li were engaged in fierce combat. Upon entering the room, the seasoned hunter sensitively sniffed the air; for him, there was a faint trace of Su's scent in the room. This was an exceedingly rare occurrence. It is important to note that they had entirely relied on tracking the traces left by Li to find this place, as Su had left not even the slightest clue throughout the entire jungle.
Before long, the sentinel received a response; it was the convoy from the headquarters
The convoy briefly replenished some water and fuel in Asmo and rested for two hours. When the sky began to brighten, they set off towards the jungle of Asmo
The young man with gray hair slightly bowed and said in a melodious and pleasant voice: "Private First Class Oberon of the Dark Dragon Knights"
The Pendulum City welcomed the morning as usual
What is striking is that the two young individuals, who are clearly not members of the Rockserlan, are also seated in the conference room. They remain silent, quietly sitting behind Faser
Moments later, a colored sketch of Su appeared before Li Gaolei. He had to admit that this portrait was indeed remarkably lifelike, especially the tranquil green eyes that seemed to conceal a volcano within, making Li Gaolei feel as if Su were truly standing right in front of him
Leikona furrowed his brow and said, "How about this: Oberon will be in charge of the search here, while I go after Su. Once the search here is concluded, catch up with me as soon as possible. Oberon, what do you think?"
The only one who resisted to the end was a woman, the one who attempted to seduce Su in the bar. She was not unattractive, but she was not the type that Laikona preferred. Perhaps it was due to her childhood spent growing up in the wilderness, or perhaps it was the hedonistic lifestyle of recent years, but Laikona sensed the scent of a mutated organization on her, which completely extinguished his interest. Moreover, he had always been very impatient, so a few minutes later, a strange red glow and the woman's piercing screams erupted from the hotel used for interrogation.
The hunter, upon a brief glance, had already understood what had transpired here, and thus handed the lens to Oberyn. Oberyn took it, examining it closely, his brows slightly furrowing. He, too, was aware of what had occurred here. After a moment of contemplation, Oberyn cast a glance at the hunter and shook his head.
Only the retainer hunter and Oberyn are allowed to enter the room, while the others remain outside to avoid inadvertently damaging the clues. After the retainer hunter carefully examined the entire room, his gaze fell upon the long table leaning against the wall. There was noticeable damage at the point where the edge of the table met the wall, and large scratches were present on the wall, appearing quite fresh, as if the table had recently undergone a violent and prolonged collision and friction with the wall
Under the cover of night, Su left the Falcon Manor without alarming anyone and began to move steadily across the vast wilderness. The modified rifle weighed heavily on his back, instilling a sense of confidence in him. He needed to skillfully maneuver with the pack of wolves trailing behind him in this boundless and complex terrain. The first step was to ascertain what exactly was pursuing him, and then it would come down to a test of patience, perhaps even luck.

Aubrey frowned slightly, as he keenly sensed a barely perceptible anger emanating from Rigoré. In response to Laikona's question, he calmly stated: "I have someone I like"
Fasle took off his glasses and carefully wiped them with a square white handkerchief. His somewhat cloudy eyes were fixed on Ligolei: "When I saw these photos, I was truly very, very disappointed. Over the past two days, I, this old man, have not slept well at all, constantly thinking about this matter. You know, I have always had high hopes for you and personally placed you in this position. So now, don't you owe me an explanation? Explain what exactly is going on. You know, I have always had high hopes for you and personally placed you in this position. So now, don't you owe me an explanation? Explain what exactly is going on. Is it ambition, or something else?"
A line of fire instantly extended from Su's throat all the way to his stomach. It felt as if several ammunition depots had been ignited simultaneously within Su's stomach
Indeed, Su looked towards the leader of the falcons and said, "I came here to see if I could take on a task along the way. After completing at most one task, I will have to leave."
The commander of the K 7 settlement was very hopeful that Su could stay, as the recent battle had already demonstrated that a sniper like Su could completely influence the outcome of a fight. Of course, Su's refusal did not come as a surprise to him; only large corporations would have the means to retain someone like Su, and the K 7 settlement was simply too small and too impoverished.
This table of attire, resembling that of ragged beggars and rough men with crude books, belongs to the renowned Falcon Mercenaries. Their dilapidated headquarters and food that is only slightly better than that of the wandering mobs are what they use to host Su. The Falcon Mercenaries are quite famous in the surrounding area, known for their high success rate and efficiency in completing tasks. However, mercenary work is a high-casualty industry, and unlike other mercenary groups, the Falcons do not abandon their injured members. Instead, they gather them in nearby settlements for support, which incurs a substantial expense, nearly exhausting all of the Falcons' income. Not everyone agrees with the leader's policies, and as a result, the team has dwindled to just twelve members. To earn more money, the Falcons have no choice but to serve local companies, taking on high-risk tasks that other mercenaries might hesitate to accept, charging into the front lines of battle.

Perhaps since the dawn of human intelligence, these two rules have remained unchanged. The first is that life is inherently unequal. The second is that individuals can change this inequality through their efforts. However, ironically, throughout history, in most cases, such efforts and their outcomes have only exacerbated the overall inequality in society
Fasr leaned back slightly, smiling, and said: "That's right. You know the source of the invaders; all you need to do is assist the two Dark Dragon Knights in finding this source. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you that the most important thing in cooperating with the Dark Dragon Knights is honesty. To ensure that honesty is not compromised, Shali has been sent to the Dark Dragon Knights for a year of free education. I can guarantee that it will be formal foundational training within the Dark Dragon Knights, an opportunity that many families and companies would pay handsomely for but cannot obtain."
The deceased woman is said to have been the mistress of the owner of Payne Company; however, throughout the entire time, until the convoy left Asmo, no senior executives from Payne Company were seen.
Although the elderly man lacks the ability, Li and Li Gaolei show him great respect. This elderly man, named Faser, is one of the founders of Roxelan Company and is also one of the current five directors, making him a significant figure within the company who truly holds influence.
Laikona casually drew a semicircle on the map, connecting the three settlements, and said: "Let's follow this order, one by one."
The two young men also aroused curiosity and a sense of danger in Li Gaolei
Commander K 7 forgot to mention one thing: he and the leader of the Falcons were once life-long friends in their youth. Although friends are far fewer than mutated creatures in this turbulent era, men who have fought side by side can easily become steadfast friends. Therefore, Su, whom Commander K 7 introduced, immediately gained the trust of the leader of the Falcons
All the equipment was neatly arranged in the corner of the room, and the cloak was folded neatly beside it. It was then that Su recalled what had happened last night; he vaguely remembered the falcon leader opening its mouth wide, as if saying something, but he could not hear a single word clearly. Then, a wave of heat surged in his chest like the explosion of a grenade, and he could no longer remember what happened afterward
Half an hour later, Ligore drove his SUV away from the headquarters building, heading out of the city along the road. Sitting in the passenger seat was Laikona, while Oberon occupied the position of the machine gunner, glancing around with interest as he observed Pendulum City.
The vast expanse of the earth is a paradise for wolves, and it is also a paradise for Su. Wolves are patient animals, and Su is also very patient
As dawn broke, the resonant military songs echoed across the eastern district, and squads of soldiers began their morning runs under the dim light. Li stood on the rooftop of a five-story building, coldly overlooking the soldiers training below. She was perched on the parapet of the rooftop, and a moment's inattention could lead to a direct fall. The morning wind here was particularly strong and unpredictable. Even soldiers at the third level of the Combat Domain would not dare to casually stand in such a place: a misstep could result in a fall, and while they might not die, breaking a few bones was inevitable.
The convoy is still one kilometer away from Pendulum City, and Li Gaolei and Li have both appeared outside the city to welcome them.
Leikon thought for a moment and said: "Su has lost his handgun, and it seems he doesn't have a spare weapon. Therefore, the first thing he should do next is to acquire a melee weapon. We should first look for clues in the nearby settlements. Kangwen, please list all the surrounding settlements."
In fact, as Su opened his mouth, the room immediately fell silent, with everyone looking at him. This was primarily because since arriving at the Falcon headquarters, Su had not had the opportunity to say anything, as his time had been consumed by the incessant chatter of the Falcon leader. Seeing that Su was about to say something, the rough men of various ages in the room had bright eyes, filled with hope, eagerness, unease, and a sense of loss. Due to the lack of snipers, the Falcon suffered casualties almost every time they undertook a mission. Observing Su's intention to speak, the rough men of various ages in the room had bright eyes, filled with hope, eagerness, unease, and a sense of loss. Given the current situation of the Falcon, every casualty meant a reduction in available members.
He decided to leave immediately. Whatever it was that could instill such a strong sense of crisis in Su, whether it be a person or some other mutated creature, it was beyond the capability of this naive group of mercenaries in the Falcon to handle
Li Gaolei stared at Faser and asked, "If I am not mistaken, your people should have already begun investigating the individuals in the department, right?"
The table is exquisite, a fine piece from a bygone era, yet the house is quite shabby, with drafts coming from all four sides. The food on the table mainly consists of various roasted meats, ranging from ferocious rats and putrid wolves to mutated chunks of meat whose origins are unknown. There is plenty of meat, but only one bottle of wine, and half of it has already been poured into the cup in front of Su, prompting a bitter smile from him
This matter is hereby agreed upon
"Is it necessary to gather some personnel? This Su is quite difficult to deal with," said Ligao Lei
On the verdant background, there are corpses of invaders and various cells everywhere, precisely the scene that Rigoletto saw at that time on the computer screen of the doctor's degree.
The other appeared somewhat younger, seemingly just around twenty, with strangely smooth gray hair and rare gray-green eyes. Unlike his tall and flamboyant companion, this young man seemed particularly quiet, even a bit shy. He was also curiously observing Rigor. Rigor suddenly noticed a faint glimmer deep within the young man's pupils. Almost simultaneously, Rigor felt as if an icy current surged through him, and his intuition told him that this young man seemed to have seen right through him.

The environment in Pendulum Town is somewhat better than that of the surrounding areas, with lower levels of radiation and pollution. Although these soldiers have not undergone any special enhancements to their physical resistance, each of them possesses a robust constitution, fully capable of enduring radiation levels twice as strong. Unlike the turbulent era that emphasized individual combat prowess, Li advocates for the training methods of the olden days, placing great importance on the combination of troop types and the quality of equipment. It can be said that 80% of the construction budget for the entire northern division of Rockserland has been spent on Li's army. The profits generated by the division currently are not even sufficient to support the 50 personnel under Li's command.
Since ancient times, individuals have possessed varying degrees of innate talent, and this remains true even in tumultuous eras. Most people lack the innate ability to develop skills, and those who can typically excel only in specific fields, often stagnating at a basic level. Although genetic evolution potions can enable ordinary individuals without talent to acquire evolution points and thus gain abilities, the high cost and rarity of these potions present stricter limitations and obstacles than innate talent. An ordinary person could never accumulate enough money for a single potion in their lifetime. However, if one is willing to strive hard and is fortunate enough, it is possible to earn evolution points after a few battles.
Laikona stared at Li, taking in every line of her figure. From the first time they met, Li's long and powerful legs left a deep impression on Laikona. It was not until the off-road vehicle turned the corner and Li was no longer in sight that Laikona withdrew his gaze and smiled at Oberon, saying, "I never expected to find such a great girl in a place like this! Once we finish our business and come back, I must find a way to have her. But to be honest, once probably won't be enough! So, what do you think? Are you interested? If you are, I can let you have her!"
Li Gaolei stood at the end of the line, yet he had already taken in every detail. Laikena was simply powerful, but Oberon eluded his understanding. This young man with gray hair and gray eyes, possessing a pure countenance, had mastered far too many skills, even including painting, which was entirely useless in the wilderness. However, the essence of Oberon's main abilities and the level he had reached remained completely unclear to him
Rigaole was unsure whether there was a family by the name of Fabregas, but judging by Laikona's expression, it must be a very distinguished name. However, the nature of the Fabregas family had become irrelevant; upon hearing the words "Dark Dragon Knights," Rigaole's eyes twitched sharply. He intended to light a cigarette, but after several attempts with the match, he was unable to ignite it.
When Laikona and Rigoré finally managed to enter, the spray on the table had completely evaporated. What they learned was that a fierce struggle had taken place in this room, and Su had left traces, primarily in the form of scent. For the hunter with enhanced third-level olfactory senses, it was barely possible to discern Su's whereabouts from this faint scent. If Su had deliberately concealed his trail, it would be impossible to track him. However, the places where Su had rested, especially when he was mentally and physically relaxed, would still leave some traces.
Fasr laughed happily and said, "I have said that Li is still a child and very talented. The company needs her"
The room grew increasingly quiet, and a sense of unease began to spread. It was not only the twelve large men in the room; several faces of women, elderly individuals, and children quietly appeared at the door and windows. The women here were nearly as rugged as the men, sharing the same intense desire for survival and love for this land. In the extremely barren wilderness, only an alternative like the falcon would take in the completely worthless elderly and the disabled.
The morning light gradually brightened, and faintly, dust could be seen rising in the distance. A sentinel stationed at the highest building on the edge of Pendulum City noticed something unusual. Through a high-powered telescope, he could vaguely see that the dust contained a long convoy approaching Pendulum City. The sentinel immediately disengaged the safety on the heavy machine gun and simultaneously notified the division via the walkie-talkie.
This portrait is the work of Oberon. This quiet, even somewhat shy young private possesses extraordinary artistic talent, having created such a lifelike portrait solely based on the verbal description from Rigaley, a few colored pencils, and several revisions
Su smiled wryly and turned his face, just in time to see the hawk leader's beaming face, which was radiant to the extreme
The Falcon leader glanced at Su, then at the room full of men who looked as if they were in a daze, and finally at the table laden with roasted meat and the untouched full glass of wine in front of Su. Rubbing his nose, he said with a bitter smile: "I know the price of a Tier 3 sniper. For a single mission, the cheapest price could buy the entire Falcon. When you arrived, I thought you were just a Tier 1 sniper... You have seen our situation; to be honest, we simply cannot afford the money."
The Falcon leader is merely a first-tier power enhancement and a first-tier basic firearms mastery. Apart from the leader, none of the people in this room have ever encountered a true third-tier ability user. The men and women are all excited, even beginning to envision a future filled with happiness, charging into battle under the cover of a third-tier sniper. However, the leader does not share this sentiment; his heart suddenly sinks. From any perspective, it is impossible for the Falcon to retain a third-tier sniper. He understands the market value of a third-tier sniper on a mission.
The remuneration has already been paid" Su pointed to the empty wine glass in front of him
Fasle shifted his body slightly, pointing to the two young men, and said: "Ha! It seems I am truly getting old, having forgotten to introduce them. This is Mr. Leikona, and this is Mr. Oberyn. Both are members of the Dark Dragon Knights, specifically here regarding the matter of the invaders"
The leader of the Falcons was momentarily at a loss due to this sudden turn of events, stammering, "But... we really have no money. Even this mutated meat is becoming too expensive for us. You know, we have more than thirty veteran members to feed..."
The roaring lion immediately deflated and sat back down dejectedly
Su only wanted to take on one or two tasks, then explore westward, gradually moving to more distant places. Unexpectedly, he encountered such an unusually unconventional mercenary group.
The falcon's naive and impractical ideals, in this tumultuous era, resemble a flicker of light in the darkness; it cannot illuminate the world, yet it may attract destruction
"I owe Falcon a favor for a mission," Su said, her emerald-green eyes shining.
With a straightened waist, the entire person seemed to have lost weight, floating lightly upwards until they were directly pressed against the ceiling. This time, what was held in hand was a piece of ceramic armor. This item was not only light and thin but also extremely hard; when spun out, it could easily sever a person's head from their neck.
However, his large hand fell empty, landing directly on the back of the chair. In astonishment, the falcon leader finally noticed that Su Yi had collapsed onto the table, soundly asleep
Auberon nodded and said, "I should be here for about two days. I will come to find you in two days."
Li Gaolei watched the old man's actions in silence, leaning back against the chair at that moment, and casually asked: "What do you say?"
Su hung on the ceiling for a full three seconds, and only after clearly seeing that the environment in the room, though unfamiliar, was actually empty of any people, did he silently drop down.
The falcon leader opened his mouth but was unable to speak for a long time. After a moment, he finally extended his large hand and patted Su's shoulder, saying: "Brother ... ... "
Within ten minutes of receiving his payment, the 200 yuan in coins was entirely exchanged for pure water, food, and ammunition. Su did not intend to stay long in this settlement; after a simple resupply, he prepared to leave. In the map in Su's mind, this settlement was only one hundred kilometers from Asmo, which was still somewhat close. Although Li did not intend to take his life, she was enough of a nuisance. Moreover, Su always had a bad feeling that she might bring him significant trouble. Although Li did not intend to take his life, she was enough of a nuisance. Moreover, Su always had a bad feeling that she might bring him significant trouble.
The Falcon Manor lies in slumber beneath the nightfall
As dawn approaches, it is precisely the darkest hour. In the darkness, a faint azure light gradually begins to glow. The azure light initially appears somewhat bewildered, then suddenly brightens!
Behind Faser, there were two strikingly handsome young men. Both were dressed in identical deep black uniforms, adorned with two rounds of dark golden patterns at the cuffs. Their attire was markedly different from that of the other members of the Roxerlan company, being far more luxurious, tailored to fit perfectly, and exquisitely crafted. The fabric of their uniforms was even on par with Faser's suit. It appeared that these two were not members of Roxerlan, but belonged to another organization.
As the off-road vehicle passed by the West City Square, Li Zheng stood on the platform, coldly observing the soldiers practicing below, her fluttering chestnut short hair particularly striking.
It appears that a significant figure has arrived this time. In the center of the convoy are three black RVs styled from a bygone era, accompanied by two wheeled armored vehicles and two troop transport trucks filled with soldiers. To adapt to the wilderness where there are essentially no roads, these RVs have been modified; when necessary, their chassis can be raised to over 1 meter, and their powerful engines ensure they can traverse any terrain that wheeled armored vehicles can navigate. Regardless of the era, grandeur is always supported by material means
The room fell silent for a moment, and everyone looked at the third-tier sniper who had downed a drink in one go, then exchanged glances, completely bewildered by the situation before them
He found himself in a somewhat laughable and tearful situation. Is it really the case that from now on, he should just get himself completely drunk every day? Perhaps ten years ago, Su would have tried to do this, but now, not only is alcohol extremely expensive, the evolutionary energy gained from completing two missions would be much faster.
Rigaolei did not respond, but instead glanced at the two young men behind Fasil and asked, "Who are these two?"
With the not yet very bright daylight, Oberyn and the hunter retinue were carefully searching through the jungle. Oberyn's retinue was the best hunter Rhaegar had ever seen, almost intimately familiar with everything in the jungle. Although several days had passed, the hunter seemed to be moving along the same route as on that fateful day, discovering tree trunks shattered by gunfire. Meanwhile, the usually taciturn Oberyn and the hunter retinue almost simultaneously gazed towards the small building not far away. Although several days had passed, the hunter seemed to be moving along the same route as on that fateful day, discovering tree trunks shattered by gunfire. Meanwhile, the usually taciturn Oberyn and the hunter retinue almost simultaneously gazed towards the small building not far away
Leikona glanced at Oberyn and replied lightly: "No need, we have our own escort. This Su may be troublesome, but as long as we can find his whereabouts, Oberyn and I will be able to handle it. All you need to do is provide the vehicle and guide us"
Su suddenly grabbed the glass in front of him and downed the full cup of strong liquor in one go
Looking at the full glass of liquor in front of him, Su truly did not know what to say. He did not enjoy drinking, especially not cheap strong liquor, but faced with what might be the last bottle for this team, he felt somewhat at a loss on how to refuse.
What Lecona does not know is that an intense battle lasting for an hour once took place on this table
The Falcon Leader was the first to regain his composure. Only then did he stand up, intending to assist Su. He looked at his large hands and quickly called over two strong women, who carried Su to the room where the women resided, settling him down to sleep. In the Falcon camp, the women's sleeping quarters were the best and cleanest. Even the leader himself was squeezed in with a group of rough men.
The attendants were somewhat surprised, but their mission and duty were to unconditionally obey their master
Thus, Su chose to leave
The Falcon is indeed quite impoverished in terms of books; aside from weapons and the residence, which can be considered somewhat acceptable, there is hardly any surplus food or water reserves. Most of the weapons are funded by nearby settlements, and the residence, a rather sizable manor, is hardly noteworthy. In times of turmoil, what is most abundant is abandoned buildings.
As the group left the jungle in Laikona, Su helplessly gazed at the full glass of strong liquor before him. The alcohol had a pungent aroma and was from a bygone era. Although it was not an expensive vintage, its age guaranteed the value of this drink. Within the scent of the liquor, there was a faint hint of spiciness, and Su felt a subtle prickling sensation on his skin. The level of radiation in this drink was tolerable, manageable for adults surviving in the wild. Of course, over time, mutations could occur, but as a mercenary, who could say whether one would live to see the day their body underwent such changes
Laikona laughed and said, "Hey! Don't be so serious; we're here to relax! Alright, alright, let's not talk about that topic anymore. But I really want to know who can make you, of all people, feel something."
The hunter took out several cans of spray from his backpack and alternately sprayed them on the long table, then took out a lens to observe closely. Through this filter, a blurred upper body outline emerged on the table surface, with curves that were both pronounced and delicate, suggesting it belonged to a female form. The edges of the outline were marked by continuous colored lines. These lines represented different times, allowing for a rough determination of the origin of the traces and the trajectory of movement.

Su's reputation in Asmo is neither particularly good nor bad. Many people are fond of this quiet and mysterious young man, especially since his eyes are so captivating. Conversely, an equal number of people despise Su, resenting his overly beautiful eyes. Regardless of their stance, upon witnessing the formidable advance of the Dark Dragon Knights and the silence of the Payne Corporation, everyone understands that Su is in trouble. Those who dislike Su are naturally elated, embellishing their responses with exaggerations, and attributing numerous crimes to him, wishing for his early demise. Those who like Su initially hesitated to cooperate, thus suffering considerable hardships. The retainers of Leikona are experts at tormenting others. Even Bern's willpower was only sufficient to withstand for half a minute, as after a simple inquiry, one of Leikona's retainers directly removed two of his fingernails.
Laikona and Oberon each brought five attendants, and they drove four off-road vehicles, following behind Rigoray's car as they sped towards Asmo. Rigoray noticed that these attendants, apart from their sidearms, did not carry any heavy firearms. Laikona and Oberon, on the other hand, were not even armed with firearms.
Fasr took out a few photographs from his inner pocket and gently pushed them, causing the photos to slide across the smooth table to Ligolei's front. Just a glance was enough for Ligolei's expression to change, and he cursed fiercely, "This son of a dog!"
The previous battle was unexpectedly challenging, as the opponent proved to be surprisingly strong. The commander felt fortunate to have been able to hire Su for 200 yuan; otherwise, the outcome might have been entirely different. Based on Su's performance in the battle, the commander estimated his worth to be at least above 500. However, K7 would definitely not be able to come up with such a large sum of money.
Before leaving, Su, following his usual habit, walked through every corner of the settlement. Thus, in the map of his consciousness, he captured all the details he had observed. Based on the coordinates, Su named this settlement K 7. When this idea occurred to him, a mark labeled K 7 appeared next to the settlement's identifier on the map
Su Shua stood up abruptly, extending his left hand instinctively to reach for his gun. However, his hand met only emptiness, and he was suddenly drenched in cold sweat
Unlike Asmo under the governance of Pain Company, Pendulum City does not welcome outsiders, and the Northern District branch has no intention of engaging in external trade. After selecting Pendulum City as the location for the branch, Li led the army to clear the entire city in half a month, followed by another half month to clear the underground passages, sealing off and destroying all unused tunnels. Subsequently, a ten-kilometer exclusion zone was established around Pendulum City, where not only the displaced could not reside, but even members of other companies or settlements were prohibited from passing through. Even mercenaries and hunters holding licenses issued by Rockserland Company would be equally denied entry if their mission area was not outside this ten-kilometer zone. Those who ignore the warnings would face the repercussions of the Rockserland Guard. In the wilderness, such repercussions often mean extinction.

Several photos are like this
Descending from the RV was an elderly man who had begun to gain weight, with snow-white hair. His light gray suit was impeccably pressed, and his shiny black shoes were spotless. The old man seemed to always wear a smile on his face; at first glance, he appeared to possess no special abilities. In this rapidly changing era, in fact, most people still lack extraordinary powers.
With a loud bang, the men in the room immediately became excited, and their gazes towards Su were filled with a newfound respect and admiration. This is truly a significant figure
Li Gaolei sat at the large conference table, feeling a vague sense of unease rising within him for reasons he could not quite grasp. Unlike the relatively simple Li, Li Gaolei had served the company for over eleven years. He was acutely aware of the immense power possessed by the elderly man before him, who always wore a smile, exuded amiability, and moved slowly, appearing entirely harmless. In this world, power holds sway, yet in the face of wisdom, power often finds it difficult to prevail.

When Oberon and Rigoray arrived, they only saw Laikona with an indifferent expression and the charred corpse of a woman on the ground Oberon sighed but did not say much more
In the late hours of the night, the speeding convoy arrived at Asmo, awakening the quiet town from its slumber. After briefly stating their purpose, Lecona and Oberon inspected the room where Su had once lived and questioned nearly everyone associated with Su, including Bern. Some items suspected to have been used by Su were extracted and preserved
