After changing into the tactical suit, he checked his equipment once more before leaving the hotel.
At the entrance of Phoenix City City, soldiers were cleaning the battlefield. George looked at a tactical plate, which was listed on it the losses of the wolf that had attacked the Phoenix City this time. In addition to the alloy gate being breached, the wolves that had charged into the group had killed 43 soldiers, with the same name of 5 soldiers. However, the specific economic losses were still being calculated.
Although the losses were not considered heavy, it made George hold his breath. After all, there were only a hundred or so Finry's wolf that caused these casualties. These metamorph were not particularly strong, but after moving in a swarm, their destructive power had reached up to a thousand levels.
George's mood was not very good, so when someone disturbed his work, he was like a volcano that could erupt at any time.
The one who disturbed him was a soldier, this young taxi looked at George in fear, but still reported: "Sir, a mercenary who claims to be Zero is looking for you."
George said in a deep voice, "Right now, I do not have the time to waste on a mercenary. If he doesn't leave, use a gun and stab him in the ass! "
"He said you'd meet him because you owed him a drink." The soldier continued.
George's expression froze, and then he scolded: "Damn, to think that there would be such a stingy guy. Call him over. "
Not long after, Zero appeared in front of George. George looked at the armed Zero, whether it was the M500 revolver on his waist or the Colt on his back. Zero's equipment all looked rough and wild, completely out of place with his slim figure.
"So your name is Zero. Alright, what are you looking for me for?" I don't have any money to return it to you right now, so why don't we wait until tomorrow … " George said, of course he knew that this was not what Zero wanted. Right now, this person was like an unsheathed sword, still very sharp, because George could already feel a killing intent from his body.
Although George had already tried his best to overestimate the aura of zero, it seemed that he had still underestimated this mercenary who was mixed up in the caravan.
"I want to know where those Finry's wolf came from. Amongst them, there is a blind guy who caught my pet … "Comrade." Zero explained his purpose.
George looked at the road that extended out of the city into the darkness and pursed his lips: "Morin, those guys are from the ruins. Speaking of which, we are also very suspicious. The Finry's wolf have always lived in the Frost Forest in the Northern Lands, but about three months ago, a group of Finry's wolf had migrated to the Morin. According to the information we have, there are about five hundred of them, and they have taken over the city's gymnasium as their lair. "
"Thank you!"
After obtaining the information he needed, Zero prepared to leave the city.
But George caught hold of his arm: "I don't remember there being an order for civilians to be allowed to leave the city."
Zero looked at him, not saying anything. However, the burning hot eyes had explained everything.
"Okay, listen to the guy. I know you're anxious to get your companions back, but you didn't just go there. " George shook his head: "Other than Finry's wolf s, there are still many monsters dwelling in the ruins of Morin, such as the Saber Mantis, shadow killer, puncturer and more. Moreover, recently some guys from Death Ridge had also run into the city, so right now, the Morin was just a devil cave. Do you understand? Don't even mention you, even if the army were to enter, they would have to be very careful. "
"Do you mean to leave me alone?" Zero asked lightly.
George revealed a smile, "You're wrong again. In fact, it was the exact opposite. Listen, because of the Finry's wolf's attack this time, the higher ups are prepared to carry it out. Right now we are gathering the best hunters and mercenaries in the city, and I can recommend you to join us. I mean, you might as well take part in this operation, so it will have a higher chance of saving your partner. "
"When are you going to move?"
"Tomorrow morning at the latest."
Zero shook his head, "No, that would be too long."
"Man, it's been at least 20 minutes since the wolves retreated. If they are not good for your companions, you are now only going to collect the body. "On the other hand, you have a better chance of winning if you act with us tomorrow. Do you know about the simple theory of probability?" George calculated and made the final move.
He gazed at Morin in the black shadow, his fists repeatedly clenching and relaxing posture. In the end, his killing intent disappeared.
"Take me to your so-called operation team now. If the members are too weak, I will choose to act alone." Zero said resolutely.
George laughed coldly: "This is exactly what I want to say. If you are unable to pass the examination, no matter how much I like you, I can only call you scram, so as to not burden our team."
"That's for the best." Hearing George's words, Zero smiled.
Chapter 107 - Lair Operation
"Level 1 Fire Element Su specializes in strength, level 2 strength and defense enhancement. What was this, a rank 5 agility enhancement? "Alright, looks like I've picked up a treasure."
Holding the tactical plate and looking at the zeros that came down from the ability testing machine, George strongly patted his back, "I can't tell that you're a strong person, but fuck. Anyone above the fifth step is a freak, so you are qualified, zero! "
The ability machine test for zero was not like the old Z7 base. It was more sensitive towards detecting abilities, but it was still unable to detect the golden right eye and the ability to go berserk. It was likely that these abilities were not within the capabilities of the Five Great Regions. No matter how advanced the testing machine was, it was still based on the ability of the Five Great Regions. Thus, not discovering the hidden ability of zero was within reason.
Naturally, Zero would not reveal those hidden abilities on his own. Just showing these abilities was enough for him to participate in this operation. There was no need for him to be so superfluous.
Under George's lead, Zero arrived at the Phoenix City's military base. This place was the command center of the Phoenix City. After a series of strict and cautious inspections, George brought him to a operations room.
The meeting room was brightly lit. Other than the dozen or so senior officers like George, there were five other people who were dressed differently. It was obvious that they were hunters or mercenaries like Zero, who did not belong to the Phoenix City.
Because the test results showed that he was at the fifth stage of power, his mercenary license was granted by George, and had been upgraded to the second stage of power. As long as the extermination operation organized by the Phoenix City was completed, the license would be given another class increase, which could be considered as a bonus.
The officer did not say anything, but the five mercenary soldiers, George, introduced them one by one until they formed a six man special operations team.
The first member that George introduced to Zero was a black man named Nessen. Nessen was as strong as a black bear, but in fact, his ability was also a mutated third stage [Tyrannical Bear Form]. After switching gene fragments, Nessen was able to turn into a violent bear, possess unparalleled strength and abnormal defensive power, and was even able to use the Fierce Bear like metamorph's War Stomp.
The second was a Huntress named Saario. He was a Caucasian man with Rank 4 Trap Mastery, Rank 3 Concealment Strengthening, Rank 3 Agility Strengthening, and Rank 2 Smell Strengthening abilities. This man was small and thin, standing together with the strong Nessen, it could almost be ignored. He had draped himself over a dark black cape. If one didn't pay attention, one would see that he was like an inconspicuous shadow.
At least in Zero's perception, Saario's presence was very vague, probably due to his ability to hide and strengthen himself. This ability made Zero secretly pay attention to it, and decided that when t
here was an extra evolution point, he would also evolve this ability. A sniper with an enhanced ability of concealment would definitely become the nightmare of any opponent.
Then there was a woman, about thirty years old, also white. George called her Jenny. Jenny's body was sexy and he wore tight clothes, showing the greatness of his chest to the men. Although she was already quite old, she did not have much of an atmosphere. Her eyes lit up when she saw zero. When George had introduced her, her chest had intentionally brushed against zero, making Zero feel that the bean in front of her chest was extremely firm.
Jenny carried a large bow made of alloy, with laser bundles on both ends. When used, a laser beam connects the two ends to form a bowstring. On the other hand, the Congealing Gloves on Jenny's right hand would turn into a laser arrow. The laser arrow was characterized by its long range, strong penetration, and also had a certain degree of damage to the energy force field, making it a weapon of the new era.
They were both Hunters, but Jenny preferred attack fields. Her abilities were the third stage of Agility Strengthening, the third stage of Accurate Shooting and the first stage of Wind Element Su's proficiency.
Feng YuanSu was well-versed in not direct combat abilities, he belonged to the auxiliary category and was able to wrap a layer of Feng YuanSu around the surface of the laser arrow, and was able to correct the effect of the atmosphere on the arrow. Just like how Su had mastered the zero level of Fire Element, Jenny had also found an alternative way to use the power of this Meta-Su Domain.
The fourth person and Zero were both yellow people, but they were just as annoying. The Adept called Kazuo Watanabe was a master swordsman. His abilities were similar to the Su that he knew, they both had the abilities of a Level 5 Sharp Weapon Specialist. The weapon Kazuo Watanabe used was a long sword and a short sword, but he knew that they were only weapons on the surface. This Japanese's body was also hiding other pocket-sized weapons, although Zero had no specialties in perceptual domain. But when he looked at Japanese, Zero's skin started to hurt. It was as if this person was wearing a weapon all over his body, just like an iron hedgehog.
The last one was an Indian called Zuma. Zuma had on a feathered crown with the characteristics of Indian City and was wearing a hemp robe with all kinds of birds and beasts painted on it. The man wore a hideous ghost mask, revealing only a pair of yellow, cloudy eyes.
He was leaning on a black wood walking stick, and he didn't know if it was the illusion of zero, but Zero always felt that he was emitting a black mist, making Zuma feel extremely mysterious.
This Indian's ability was a master of the fourth stage, Dark Element Su. As a rarely seen Dark Element Su, his ability was not able to cause any direct damage to the enemy. However, a Level 4 [Dark Elemental Su] being proficient could allow him to curse at his enemies, poison them, and create a series of negative effects. It was because of how mysterious Su was that the people in this kind of domain would secretly call them "wizards".
After introducing Zero to these people, their reactions were also different. Nessen straightforwardly shook hands with Su Yun, while Sario and Zuma would rather hide themselves than say a word. As for the Japanese, both of his hands were inadvertently placed on the handle of the katana, showing a faint enmity. Finally, there was Jenny. She was probably the most passionate person because when she was standing with Zero, her body would always use some sort of hint to tease the young Zero.
"Alright, everyone. The reason we are gathered together is because we can no longer tolerate Finry's wolf s!"
Walking on the podium as the commander of the operation. George spoke of his intention for this operation in a rough tone. This operation was called "Operation Lair" and the plan was not temporary. Instead, it was something that had already been planned a month ago. It included the selection of the special team members, the preparation of equipment and weapons, etc. Zero was just there for them.
Three months ago, the Finry's wolf suddenly migrating to Morin caused quite a bit of trouble. These huge wolves were different from the other mutated organism. The strict and disciplined huge wolves had let the Phoenix City realize the dangers of Finry's wolf after a few skirmishes with them. And tonight's attack confirmed the Phoenix City's thoughts.
The distance between Morin and herself was at least a few hundred kilometers. Although there were hundreds or thousands of mutated organism living in the ruins of that city, at least they had maintained a non-aggression against each other for a long time. But after the Finry's wolf came, this balance was being broken.
No matter how strong the metamorph was, if it was just an individual, Phoenix City would never put it in his eyes. However, Finry's wolf were different. Under the lead of the Wolf King, they were like an army. Right now, the Phoenix City was afraid that the Finry's wolf would stay in the Morin for a long time. That was why the Phoenix City decided to uproot the Finry's wolf's nest before they were able to stand firmly on their feet. This was also the reason for this operation.
And the special task force that Zero was in was called "Beheading the King". Their target was the Finry's wolf's Wolf King. At that time, the Phoenix City's army would be able to attract the attention of the Finry's wolf, and the King Slaying team would be able to sneak into the den of wolves to kill the Wolf King as soon as possible. Losing the Wolf King's command, the Finry's wolf was like a pile of loose sand, the Phoenix City was 100% sure that they would be annihilated.
When George finished explaining the details of the operation to everyone, the officer slammed his palm on the table and roared: "The operation is scheduled for 6 o'clock tomorrow morning, do you understand?"
A wave of agreement broke out in the audience.
Chapter 108 - Spring Night
After the meeting, under George's lead, Zero and the other members of the special forces left the Command post together. George emphasized for them to gather at the city gate at 6 o'clock in the morning before he declared their disbanding.
As Zero walked in the direction of the hotel, a gentle and seductive voice sounded out from behind him, "Handsome, why don't we go have a drink together?"
Su Yun turned her head, the one who called him was the graceful Jenny.
As his gaze swept across Jenny, he was slightly surprised. This woman's fullness was even above Su's, especially the long years of exercise, causing her perky butt and long legs to be firm and flexible. Zero could imagine how much this man must enjoy having his legs wrapped around him.
But the principle of zero is never to waste energy and physical activity before the war. Judging from the spring hidden in the corner of Jenny's eyes, she would probably be in bed with an unknown amount of wine.
He smiled and said, "There are still around seven hours until six in the morning. If there's nothing else, I want to rest."
Under Jenny's dejected gaze, Zero turned and left.
Behind him, a lazy voice sounded out: "Why do you need to be so serious with someone who doesn't know how to act? If Miss Jenny gives me face, I can treat you to a drink."
Behind Jenny, Japanese swordsman Kazuo Watanabe walked over. Honestly speaking, the Japanese did not look bad. He was about the same size as Zero, and the handsome Kazuo Watanabe had a moustache that he had meticulously modified. However, if one were to look at his long and narrow eyes, one would think that he was rather narrow-minded.
However, Jenny evidently did not care about all this. She revealed an ambiguous smile and said: "May I ask where Mister Bian Du would like to invite me to drink?"
Kazuo Watanabe laughed blandly: How about we go to my room?
Jenny accepted the hint and everyone else went back to rest.
When the electronic clock indicated 5: 23 AM, in a room that was lit by a dark yellow light, Kazuo Watanabe was working hard on his white body. It was a crazy night. The two of them had done it who knows how many times and changed positions. What surprised Kazuo Watanabe was that Jenny had an astonishing amount of vitality. Even though she had climbed to the peak of th
e spirit meat many times, she was still not satisfied.
After a short rest, she would use all sorts of methods to once again stir up the flames within Kazuo Watanabe's body.
Just like a moment ago, Jenny slid her long sexy legs across Kazuo Watanabe's body, and the latter's flames that had already extinguished once again ignited. Kazuo Watanabe pressed Jenny onto the bed with bloodshot eyes. Then he would lie down on her body and use all of his strength to attack that wonderful place.
When the bell had jumped around 50 points, Kazuo Watanabe shouted out loud. After his entire body trembled violently, he laid down on the bed.
But Jenny seemed unsatisfied, she used her nimble tongue to lightly lick the man's earring. Kazuo Watanabe said as he gasped for air, "It's almost 6, we have to prepare."
With a snort, Jenny stood up and revealed her sexy body to Kazuo Watanabe. She shook her head and said, "You can't do it, right? I thought the man that invited me would be a tough guy. I didn't expect him to be a wimp too."
She jumped out of bed and headed for the bathroom.
Kazuo Watanabe roared with all of his strength: "No matter how weak this daddy is, I'm still tougher than that sissy brat!"
Jenny stuck her head out from the bathroom and said: "That's hard to say, wait until I've tried his taste before making my judgement. But no matter what, I should not be worse than you. "
She laughed out loud, went into the bathroom to take a bath, and even hummed a song. However, the Japanese on the bed still fumed with anger.
"Zero?"
Kazuo Watanabe silently recited the name, wishing that he could slice that exquisite face into two.
Zero sneezed. He found it strange. He hadn't tried to sneeze since he woke up. However, he did not take such a small matter to heart. After tidying up a bit, he bid farewell to Moni, and walked on the cold and deserted street that had yet to be revealed by the morning light.
When he arrived at the main entrance of the Phoenix City, George was already there early in the morning. Other than him, there was also Zuma and Sario. Zero walked over and greeted them after nodding his head.
