Chapter 1003: Cheers
The external armor fell from the bridge like a million pounds of stone, and the landing point was exactly the bulletproof vehicle Zhou Shiji was riding in, and everything was exceptionally precise under Ren Xiaosu’s control.
At the back of the vehicle responsible for escorting Zhou Shiji, the soldiers raised their guns and prepared to shoot when they saw the falling external armor.
But it was too late to do anything at this time, Ren Xiaosu raised the black knife in his hand, when he fell down the moment the waist, abdomen and arm at the same time to conduct the power, the whole body’s strength are gathered in the tip of the knife.
Snorting sound, toothache metal cutting sound, some people can’t help but cover their ears, this sound as if it can pierce into the heart of all people at once.
The driver’s howl of fear came from the bulletproof car, after the black knife pierced through the roof of the car, it was immediately followed by stabbing into Zhou Shiji’s chest.
However, Ren Xiaosu is still not assured, hard to cut the bulletproof car top all open, and then through the roof of the big hole to make sure Zhou Shiji is dead before it is finished.
Ren Xiaosu looked at Zhou Shiji lying in the car who had been stabbed through the heart, the other party’s blood overflowed from the chest, staining the other party’s spotless white shirt and also dirtying the neat suit.
“The target is dead, let’s start retreating, Hibiscus you evacuate in the direction of area 28, I’ll meet you on the way,” Ren Xiaosu said in the communication channel and then drew his sword and turned around.
At this moment, the highway was surrounded by the garrison, the dense rain of bullets formed a huge interweaving network of firepower around Ren Xiaosu, but Ren Xiaosu did not intend to continue to entangle with them, but turned around and ran towards the residential building by the roadside.
His overlay armor’s hard armored fingers clawed into the wall, and with his bare hands, he climbed up to the roof and disappeared.
This assassination started fast and ended fast, without the part where he debated with Zhou Shiji, Ren Xiaosu didn’t even give Zhou Shiji a chance to let out a wail before ending the assassination.
This made those garrison troops who originally wanted to fight with Ren Xiaosu’s external armor fiercely a bit confused, they looked at the direction Ren Xiaosu disappeared and thought to themselves, “You’re just going to leave like that?
Before that, many of them were thinking that the other party wouldn’t be so bold as to assassinate the head of a consortium, right?
But now they realized that in this era of the rise of the gods, where the “individual” is exceptionally powerful, taking the head of a general in the midst of ten thousand soldiers is no longer something that only happens in mythological stories.
No wonder Qing Zhen will hide his whereabouts, can only say that Qing Zhen is too far-sighted.
Nowadays, there were quite a few people who wanted to assassinate Qing Zhen, but unfortunately, they could no longer find out where Qing Zhen was, and of these people, they even used members of the Qing Clan.
The guard forces began to chase after Ren Xiaosu in the direction they had disappeared in, and some even surrounded the building to try and capture the knights who were hiding in the residential buildings.
However, the knights ran faster than rabbits, and each of them disappeared from the guards’ view as if they were monkeys returning to nature, flying over the eaves and walking along the walls.
The guards couldn’t figure out how one of the knights with a bandage on his arm could run so fast with a broken hand! What were these people usually training for?
Within a day’s time, all of Zhou’s No. 1, 2, and 3 characters died, and the reporter of Hope Media in the 73rd Barrier was so excited to learn the news that he was on the verge of tears, and hurriedly sent the news back to L.A. City.
Inside Barrier 73, a grand arrest operation began, this matter is Zhou’s shame, no matter who Zhou’s successor is, these perpetrators must be caught in order to convince the public.
Zhou’s spokesman began to denounce the Northwest, insisting that this matter was the work of a certain big shot in the Northwest, hoping that the Northwest would take responsibility for this matter.
The media’s attention hurriedly turned to the Northwest, and the reporters at Barrier 144 swarmed to block the garrison barracks, hoping that someone from the 178th Fortress Force would come out and give a statement.
After waiting for nearly three hours, Zhang Xiaoman slowly and leisurely walked out of the barracks.
A reporter passed the microphone to Zhang Xiaoman’s mouth, “Zhou claimed that this matter should be the work of the Northwest Army, and we would like to know if that Barrier Destroyer has really become the Northwest’s next candidate for commander?”
Zhang Xiaoman had communicated with Zhang Jinglin before he came out, wanting to ask the other party how he should answer the media question.
As a result, Zhang Jinglin did not give him any precautions for answering the questions, only saying that answering truthfully would be fine.
Zhang Xiaoman said, “Then he will tell the truth, and then whoever wants to pursue the responsibility will find Commander Zhang, it has nothing to do with him.
Zhang Xiaoman replied, “Yes, he is indeed the next candidate for the commander of the 178th Fortress Group Army, but he still needs a long period of investigation and exercise.”
“Are there any other candidates in the Northwest?” The reporter asked.
“No more, just him,” Zhang Xiaoman replied.
“Commander Zhang is only forty years old now, why is he considering candidates so early?” The reporter pursued.
“If there’s a suitable one, we’ll finalize it first, so as to save him from running away,” Zhang Xiaoman replied.
Reporter: “???”
This answer gave the reporters a break in their thoughts, how could these reporters not expect the answer to be like this.
The general press conference is a large official scene, or rarely see this kind of “simple” answer ah.
The big luminary could not stand to watch from the sidelines, he felt that if he let Zhang Xiaoman answer any longer, there might be an interview accident, so he hurriedly pushed Zhang Xiaoman to the side, and answered the reporters’ questions himself, “Hahaha, I’ll answer everyone’s questions now.”
A reporter asked, “So what Zhou said, this time, the assassination of the three administrative heads of Zhou on the same day is indeed the official attitude of the Northwest Army right, after all, the perpetrator of the murder is the candidate for the commander of the Northwest Army, and most likely the next commander of the Northwest Army, so Zhou wants the Northwest Army to be responsible for this matter, how do you intend to respond to Zhou’s statement? How do you intend to respond to Zhou?”
The big lug was silent for two seconds, then smiled with a simple face and said, “You’re welcome, this is all what we should do.”
Reporters: “……”
That day, the interview manuscript from the Northwest side was quickly transmitted back to the Central Plains, and some of the senior officials on Zhou’s side were furious and stormed after seeing the manuscript, “Too arrogant, this is too arrogant!”
However, they suddenly realized that even if the other party was so arrogant, they could do nothing about it.
If the Zhou Clan wanted to send troops to the Northwest, there was still a Wang Clan in between.
The Northwest was too far away from the Zhou Clan to hit!
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaoguan had already safely separated from Barrier 73 and entered the mountain field outside the barrier.
There was a bonfire burning in the valley, Ren Xiaosu and the knights caught wild boars and rabbits from the mountains, and ate them on the fire with a unique flavor.
Ren Xiaosu handed the freshly roasted rabbit in his hand to Yang Xiaoguan and then asked the knights, “What are your next plans?”
Li Yingyun glanced at everyone before smiling, “We looked through the information and found out that there is another world’s number one peak further west in the southwest, which is said to be covered in snow all year round, with an elevation as high as 8,848 meters. If you want to climb the mountain, you have to go through thousands of obstacles. The Knight has climbed up there twice before and said that the scenery at the top of the mountain is very magnificent, so we also want to take a walk to see what the top of the mountain is really like.”
The knight in Li Yingyun’s mouth was probably Ren Wo, the founder of the knight organization.
Zhang Qingxi added with a smile from the side, “But the earth’s crust has changed a lot after the calamity, and we’re not sure if that peak is still there, so if it’s there, we’ll climb it, and if it’s not, we’ll look for other peaks. And then travel a bit more over there, we’re sure there are still a few people surviving over there.”
“By the way Su, we want to settle in the Northwest after we go climbing, I don’t know if you guys are welcome there?” Li Yingyun asked.
Ren Xiaosu’s eyes lit up, “Welcome, of course it’s welcome, together we’ll greatly prosper the Northwest ah!”
Li Yingyun and the others looked at each other and smiled, as if they had some kind of plan.
However, Ren Xiaosu was a bit curious, “Weren’t you guys always looking for Qinghe’s heir before, but you won’t look for it after settling in the Northwest? Giving up?”
Li Yingyun smiled, “We’ve already found it, he’s living a good life now and has never lived up to the name of a knight, so there’s no need for us to worry about it.”
Ren Xiaosu let out an oh, “How did you find him?”
Wen Meng, who had been silent on the side, suddenly said, “Keep it a secret for now.”
“Good,” Ren Xiaosu no longer asked more questions, he said seriously to the knights, “I’ll go back to the Northwest with Hibiscus tomorrow, and then I’ll be waiting for all of you in the Northwest, and we’ll work together for the cause of the Northwest, come on, let’s drink to the great revitalization of the Northwest!”
“Cheers!”
Also at this time, the satellite phone in Ren Xiaosu’s pocket suddenly rang, Ren Xiaosu glanced at the number, and it was clearly Wang Shengzhi’s call.
However, after hesitating for a long time, he didn’t connect it in the end, and instead stuffed the satellite phone into the stowage space.
