Chapter 249 The Sword Points at Devil's Bay
"When the old head of the Lauren family was still there, the Lauren family was the most peaceful among the heavenly beings. We were committed to concentrating our efforts to eliminate the mind beasts in the world... At that time, everything was very simple, and we didn't have to think about anything, but
Things will be different after Dugan takes over."
Among the ruins of the Parrot Tavern, the old dragon language master sighed helplessly.
"Most of the land in the world is still under the control of the Nian Beast, but we have forgotten the will left behind in the battle for salvation, and have devoted all our energy to endless internal friction. The Celestial Family is fighting for power with each other, and the Light Nian Association
There is also constant internal strife with the Control Bureau, and this outer territory... is a symbol of the internal strife, which is why I left."
"You are just escaping. Nothing will change if this continues." Genn can also feel the powerlessness in the old man's heart. He is a hero in the battle for salvation. In that era of fighting for the light of mankind, he stood at the forefront.
But everything changed after the war, and the blade was forced to turn towards his own people.
"I am indeed escaping. No matter what I do, there will never be a good result in the end. Someone will always get hurt. Whether I support or oppose it, nothing will change."
"Someone has to take that step," Gunn said.
"Someone has already done it." Long Yu said: "Leader Seth of the Spark Army, he has always wanted to challenge the authority of heaven and create a new order. You have also seen how great the resistance is... Unless it is changed from the inside,
Otherwise this chaos will continue."
"I heard..." Genn told the old man what he knew. "Seth has been imprisoned and is waiting for sanctions from the Tribunal."
"Did he also fail?" The old man sighed. He has evaded the world so far, but he has never given up his concern for the civilized world.
"There will be people who will continue to do things that neither you nor he have done. You are not alone." Gen walked to Long Yu and stretched out his hand. He has always believed in this, and Joel also told him
By the same token, I believe there are more people who are not satisfied with the current situation and are just waiting for the final spark to ignite it.
The old man pondered for a moment and then stretched out his hand. The old hand and the young hand were tightly clasped together. Genn pulled the slumped old man up with force, and Long Yu's old eyes became brighter.
When he learned that Gen and the others were going to deal with the specimen hunters, the old man expressed concern. He had lived here for so many years and knew more about the specimen hunters than they did. Bone Kong had a group of well-equipped subordinates under his command, and there were many from them.
Mercenaries from the civilized world are fighting for her, the organ trading network in Gu Kong's hands is very involved, and many big players in the underground world are protecting her. This is the reason why she can dominate the outside world.
What Gen and the others need most now is troops. The Specimen Hunter Organization is conservatively estimated to have nearly a thousand people. It is a small number among the large organizations in the outer regions, but it is not something that just a few of Gen and the others can deal with. Old Man Longyu has a group of domesticated people in his hands.
There are only fifty mind beasts that can go on the battlefield, and the twenty that were rescued by Gen and the others from the Ghost Gang can barely compete within three days of training.
"Three days is enough. My chance originally took three days." Genn was confident and didn't seem to take the specimen hunter seriously.
"Are you serious? You can find thousands of people in three days?" Ruby said in disbelief.
"You don't need thousands of people, you just need to be able to defeat them."
"You may not have seen Gu Kong's strength. The specimen hunters are harder to deal with than the low-level rookies like Ghost. Gu Kong never shows up alone. I have been waiting for so many years... If I had the chance, I would have assassinated her long ago.
.”
"What if I give her twice as much concession? I'm still sure of it, just wait patiently."
Three days passed very quickly. During this time, Genn has been thinking quietly and planning his own strategy. Ruby and Bomb Shark have been investigating the situation near the specimen hunter's lair. However, the specimen hunter's actions are very cautious.
The teams Kong brought out were all as cunning and shrewd as she was. There were a large number of patrols near the base at all times, and a large number of defenders were posted on the city walls.
The specimen hunter's lair is in Devil's Bay on the edge of the Outland. As the name suggests, it is not a good place. The coast of Devil's Bay is an endless deep-water swamp, filled with rotten blisters five to six meters deep, which are natural trap barriers.
, if you accidentally fall into it, you will suffocate and drown. A long wall built along the edge of the swamp and the coast is the base camp of the specimen hunter. It is difficult to break through the swamp and the ocean, and the only breakthrough is the beach.
However, the specimen hunter certainly knows this. The defenses near the beach are the strongest. Dozens of machine gun turrets guard the front. Even if organizations like the Ghost Gang or the Red Ghost Society want to attack by force, it will be impossible unless there are heavy
Armored weapons, but let’s not talk about whether they can be obtained. Even if tanks are used to advance forward, the light readers on the city wall will not be free of charge. The armor can block machine gun fire, but it cannot withstand light attacks.
The more she investigated, the more hopeless she felt. She didn't know how Genn could attack the fortress. She had asked him many times, but Genn refused to say anything and only asked her to wait patiently.
Even though she knew it was impossible, Ruby was still willing to believe him, not only because of her goodwill as a fellow Shadow Mind Awakener, but also because of the strength that Genn had shown during this period. Ruby always felt that this person could give the outside world
Bring something new, and...if there is no real certainty, she believes that he will not be so confident.
Because they had imprisoned Yasha before, people from the Red Ghost Society have been searching nearby recently. The Parrot Tavern can no longer stay. Gen and the others can only use Ruby's cave as a temporary base. It is relatively hidden here and will not be available for a while.
It only takes three days to be discovered by the enemy. When the time comes, they no longer need to hide.
Long Yu still retains the tools to communicate with the outside world. He has always understood the situation of the outside world without revealing his identity. This is one of the reasons why Genn is so confident... Of course, Genn will not go to the academy.
Assistance, those people will not care about matters in the outside world, but the resources in Gern's hands are not limited to the light readers.
"How are you ready?" Ruby returned to the cave hut. In order to ensure that no one was following her, she went around in circles several times before returning here.
Genn remained silent, as if he had been deep in thought, and had not said anything until now.
"There is no problem with the plan. It depends on the implementation. I can't say whether it will be successful or not."
"I hope you can succeed, although I don't know how you are going to do it." Ruby took out a stack of drawings from her bag, which were the results of her day's survey. Genn did not tell the focus of the survey, so she had to put all the drawings together.
The information is written down in detail.
The terrain and patrol routes of Devil's Bay are marked on the map. This information is hard-earned. She has never given up her revenge on Gu Kong in these years. She has accumulated a lot of information in the past. Otherwise, she would never be able to do that in just three days.
meticulous.
"Very good, you can take a rest. Daily combat is too dangerous, just leave it to me." Genn nodded, quite satisfied with the map.
"I will definitely go. I have lived until now just to be able to cut my bones with my bare hands." Ruby's eyes were firm and she clenched her fists.
"To be honest, this is a bit difficult..." Genn scratched his head and said in confusion: "Actually, I don't know if Gu Kong will still be alive after the battle. It's a bit difficult to get a whole corpse back for you."
"What are you talking about? If you can defeat her, why can't you catch her?" Ruby frowned and couldn't understand at all.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore, I will try my best."
"Let's eat something first. You haven't moved since you've been sitting all day." Ruby handed Gen a can of canned food and a plate of bread with a layer of butter on top. The most common food available in the outer lands is canned food.
Bread has to be produced on the farm of the Red Ghost Society, and is a rare commodity here.
This meal can be regarded as a great meal before the war. The candlelight was swaying under the tree in front of the hut. In order to prevent the enemy from discovering their traces, they had stopped using electrical appliances for many days. The hut illuminated by candlelight had a unique charm. The two of them were eating and chatting.
They talked a lot, about the past, about the future, about light thoughts, cities, new worlds, etc. Ruby couldn't understand a lot of it, but she still listened attentively.
Soon three days have passed. Long Yu brought eighty tamed Nian Beast Hounds as promised. He himself did not want to participate in this battle. If he took action, it would be easy to kill the specimen hunter, but after so many years,
This has made the old man take these things lightly. Of course he hates what the taxidermy hunter does.
, but things like this are happening all the time in the world, and he can't change them all even if he fights with his old bones, but he is willing to believe that... other people can change. If Gen can do it, maybe he really can.
It can also change more things. This crusade against the specimen hunter can be regarded as a test given to him by the old man.
However, just when the action was about to begin, Genn disappeared. Ruby could not see him in the cave. The bomb shark also disappeared. Ruby went to the old man's cabin and the ruins of the Parrot Tavern.
, and couldn't find them, and suddenly felt uneasy in my heart.
Either Guen and the others were lying to her and temporarily defected at the critical moment, or their plan was exposed... and now they have been captured by taxidermy hunters or other forces.
They have offended the three major forces in the Outer Territory now. They don't even know who did it when they encountered this situation. The Specimen Hunters, Red Ghost Society and Ghost Gang are all possible...
While Ruby was looking for him everywhere, Genn had already arrived near Devil's Bay.
