Bionic Era

fear.

Night, street, rainstorm.

Cold and fearful eyes.

Lu Wen knew what these people were most afraid of.

Not a prey that showed up.

But the vanished hunter.

So he did not choose to fight with Ivan.

It didn't do him any good.

Ivan, the big fat man's fighting power, can be glimpsed only from the cold mechanical parts.

Lu Wen can win.

But we must guard against the cold guns of Ivan's men.

After that explosion, he lost many little ants, and the follow-up is still on the way to fly by drone. Now is not the best time for a head-on collision.

So he backs off.

Disappeared.

Ivan stood on the top of the dilapidated second-floor building. He was tall, with a gloomy face, and the heavy rain was pouring down. He was like a furious king, standing on the cold throne, roaring towards the bottom.

Find me this machine!

It rained heavily.

Countless black-clothed thugs came out in full force.

The entire three-story area is called upon.

Pairs of hasty footsteps crushed the tranquility of the rainy night.

Rain splashes.

The hustle and bustle of every two-story business district stopped, the neon lights were dimmed, the nightclubs were closed, and all the guests came home in the rain all night, and they all became cautious, for fear of offending the furious monarch.

Ants! Reptiles!

A despicable person who only hides in the dark, why doesn't he dare to come out and fight me head-on?!

Ivan's roar conveyed a message to everyone.

If they were fighting head-on, in a one-on-one situation, the machine hiding in the darkness didn't seem to be Ivan's opponent.

So he retreats.

So these subordinates were even more in awe of Ivan.

The people sitting in the car on the second floor were also shocked. They hadn't seen Ivan make a move for a long time.

The ferocity and violence of this big fat man are completely proportional to his own strength.

Everyone here is very confident in their abilities, but they all feel that they are far from Ivan.

Ivan stood on a high place with cold eyes. After looking around, he jumped down.

boom!

With his landing, the whole street seemed to tremble for a moment.

Rain splashes on the ground.

Around him, his subordinates held up umbrellas for him, put on black robes, and escorted him step by step back to the car belonging to the third floor.

The tires have been changed.

The current actions of these men are quite agile, and they are all afraid that if they do something wrong, they will be picked up and torn apart by Ivan if they don't agree with each other.

Street entrance.

In dim neon.

The car door opened, waiting for Ivan to enter.

But as soon as Ivan reached the car door, he stopped and turned his head to look around.

Immediately, everyone in the vicinity trembled and fell silent, not daring to vent their anger too loudly.

The surroundings were so quiet that there was only the sound of rain.

The rain fell, and only Ivan held an umbrella above his head.

He said coldly: Why are you so afraid of me, thinking that I'm an idiot in those movies, who will kill your subordinates if you disagree with me?

Hearing this, many people trembled slightly.

All the men buried their heads lower, letting the cold rain hit their necks.

Keep your heads up, what I, Ivan, don't want is a group of cowardly cowards.

Ivan snorted coldly, then got into the car.

He slammed the car door shut.

There was only a bang, and the whole car shook, as if wailing, feeling that as long as the force was stronger, the door would be torn off by him.

Ivan sat in the car, calmed down briefly, and asked lightly, What are your plans for tonight?

This is for all the owners of the second floor.

After hearing the question, everyone was silent for a moment.

The sense of oppression brought by Ivan tonight is really too strong.

As a result, they all had to think about how to reply seriously so as not to offend him.

The giant Buzz was the first to answer.

I won't go back tonight, let's find out that machine first.

With his statement, the other second-floor lords followed suit.

It's always better to have more people. I don't know where the machine is hiding. It's easy to be broken by him one by one. I won't go back tonight.

When I was fighting for territory, I didn't close my eyes for two days and two nights. I fought with my opponent, and I'm here tonight.

I grew up in the mixed zone anyway, count me in tonight!

...

Everyone expressed their opinions one after another.

They can only follow Ivan here.

the reason is simple.

If they leave alone, the furious Ivan may remember them, and then he will send someone to take their heads in the middle of the night for any reason, and make this area a no-man's land.

And they were also worried that the machine would go back with them.

From here back to their respective second-floor areas, there are many places with wide views and suitable for setting up sniper rifles.

What if a bullet exploded in the head in the middle of the trip?

After thinking about it, Ivan's place is the safest.

After all, the machine didn't dare to fight Ivan alone, which meant that he was also afraid of Ivan.

He has an agreement with that old guy, Jinxiong, so he won't go far. He will stay in my third-floor area and try to force me to compromise, huh...

Ivan sneered.

But I, Ivan, am not the kind of person who compromises.

So everyone started waiting.

As Ivan said, they don't need to worry.

The ones who should be anxious should be the machine behind the scenes, and the old guy Jin Xiong.

After all, Golden Bear actually lost two second-floor areas.

If Golden Bear chooses to obey Ivan, at least these two areas can be kept for three years.

In a place like the Mixed Zone, where the fighting never stops, it is not easy for a two-story building to sit firmly for three years.

Around this area, there are several unstable second-story buildings, which change owners almost every one or two years.

Some even change every few months.

Among the eleven second-floor owners sitting in the car, the one with the shortest time in office is only three months.

The reformer who had his head blown off by Lu Wen earlier outside the car had only been on the job for a little over a year.

The ones who have really stabilized are only the ones that Ivan introduced to Lu Wen at first, such as the blue man Kate, the robot Alan and so on.

These guys have been sitting for more than five years.

Time passed little by little.

The blue man Kate sat in the car, looking at the rainwater flowing outside the car window, with a calm expression, and said something in a low voice.

It's going to be a lot better without this rain.

He doesn't seem to like rainy weather very much, or he may simply think that rain is not good for them.

As the master of an area, he does not lack genetic medicine, so he is physically strong.

In his early years, he also felt that kind of pain because of the lack of medicine.

It was a dying feeling.

Start with the lungs.

The entire lung seemed to have become a tattered bellows.

Every time he took a breath, he felt that there were hundreds of small knives cutting the trachea and alveoli. The severe pain made him feel worse than death, and he thought about knowing his own life early.

Later, it rose up by accident and had its own second floor.

So he became very cautious, careful, and needed to consider for a long time before doing anything.

He was worried that he would lose his current status, lose those medicines that were in constant supply, and return to that cold, tattered wooden bed to lie down again, waiting for the arrival of death day after day.

Boss...

The driver's soft cry pulled him out of his memory.

Kate raised her head and asked lightly, What's wrong?

I just received the news that our... our second floor was bombed, that machine... the brothers are fighting him, but they are not his opponents, and there are heavy casualties.

Damn it!

Kate cursed in a low voice, and immediately explained the situation on the channel.

That mech went to my place, damn it, he's moving too fast!

From Ivan's attack to Lu Wen's disappearance.

until now.

So far, I have been searching for less than half an hour.

The heavy rain poured down, and the night covered everything. Under such an environment, it was quite difficult for many men to search, even the Golden Bear's area was not searched completely.

Come some people, follow me to Kate's side, and others stay.

Ivan did not specify who would go with him.

In the end, six second-floor owners, including Kate, followed him.

This feeling is actually not very good.

There is only one opponent.

tough.

Hiding in the dark, moving at will, killing wantonly, without any scruples.

But Ivan was waiting for an opportunity.

All it takes is a head-to-head confrontation, and he defeats that disgusting machine in full view, and the crisis will be resolved, and his reputation will rise again.

Half an hour ago.

On the top of the second floor, Lu Wen disappeared too strangely.

I just jumped back, jumped down the second floor, and there was no trace again.

It was raining heavily, so it should be difficult to hide.

...

Blue Kate's second floor is adjacent to Golden Bear's second floor area.

But the area of ​​the connecting part is not too much.

The centers of the two are a full twenty-five kilometers apart.

half an hour.

Twenty-five kilometers.

What kind of monster can run so fast on foot in such an extreme rainy night?

won't you be tired?

The robot Allen made a sound on the channel, saying that he can do it, and this is not his limit.

But Kate was still vaguely uneasy.

He is used to being cautious and unwilling to face such a powerful enemy.

Kate's cautious habits have also been infected by his men.

While driving, his driver said worriedly: Boss, the second floor alone is definitely not the opponent of that machine. I was at the Golden Bear's side before, and I sent someone to ask about the machine's confrontation with Golden Bear's subordinates that night. The situation, that... the strength of that machine is really terrifying.

Don't be nervous, we are not the only one tonight.

Kate comforted him, even though he himself had no idea.

Was it really because the machine avoided fighting because it was afraid of Ivan?

But... that... that machine can survive even such a terrifying explosion without a hair being injured. The top weapons here are those few grenades. If you pile them up by human life, you probably won't win.

It's okay, Ivan is still here, don't be afraid.

Boss, why can't we talk to that machine...

Before the driver finished speaking, Kate patted him on the shoulder.

At the same time, Kate cut off the call on the public channel.

He lightly reminded: If you don't want to die, don't mention the word 'cooperation', Ivan listen.

Ah...boss, what about our previous conversation...

The previous dialogue is still within the normal range, so there is no need to worry.

With that said, Kate opened the public channel again.

The channel was relatively silent before, only the sound of pattering rain.

But shortly after Kate opened the channel, Ivan suddenly made a sound.

Kate, my old friend, you are indeed too cautious. Maybe you have been sitting in this position for too long, making you greedy for stability, and your fighting spirit has been worn out. I think, if a young man goes up, Maybe do better than you.

The other owners on the second floor listened quietly without making a sound.

They knew that Kate's conversation with the driver made Ivan a little unhappy.

cooperate.

These two words mean compromise.

But Ivan never compromised.

That is the choice of the weak, and he is a strong man.

He hoped that the owners of the second-floor buildings in his area could also be tougher.

Kate heard this, and after a moment of silence, she said in a deep voice, I think... the rules of the mixed zone cannot be violated twice in a short period of time.

Ivan smiled lightly.

Indeed.

The rules here are simple.

A place like the second floor is owned by whoever takes it down with strength.

If the owner of the second floor did not show disrespect towards the third floor, the third floor should not be killed at will.

This rule is not expressly stipulated, and there are no paper regulations in the mixed zone.

But everyone knows it.

There is no such rule.

The Mixed Zone might need to be renamed the Chaos Zone.

Ivan has already broken the rules by doing something against Lu Wen.

If he takes another shot at Kate and changes the owner of the second floor, it will make other owners of the second floor feel uneasy, and it will also make Ivan himself laughed at by the owners of the third floor in other areas.

So he said this, just to remind Kate.

'Not too cautious. '

Half an hour... It actually took half an hour for everyone to drive to the second floor of Kate, the blue man.

Crooked narrow streets are a big problem.

The heavy rain was majestic.

On the street are countless cold corpses, lying here and there.

The houses on both sides collapsed and turned into broken bricks and tiles.

Bullet casings are everywhere.

The rain washed away the scarlet blood.

A handful of people survived.

From time to time, there was a painful cry or two.

These are all Kate's subordinates, hundreds of them, they are all lying on several streets now, and it is indeed a heavy loss.

The second floor was burning.

The fire illuminated the entire quiet business district.

The crackling burning crackling sound and shaking shadows make the rainy night not so monotonous.

There must be some kind of accelerant, otherwise the fire wouldn't have lasted so long

Kate opened the door and got out of the car, her face extremely ugly.

The area on the second floor is not small, but it is not too big... the death of hundreds of his subordinates is not a small blow to him.

After tonight, some people in this area who are ready to move may start to act.

The security Kate was looking for is no longer there.

It's really tragic.

The giant Buzz sighed.

With so many casualties, it would be difficult for any second-story building to recover.

Fortunately, he didn't go to my area. Robot Allen also echoed, his area is far from the area of ​​Golden Bear, which is the outermost layer of Ivan's control.

The other owners of the second floor were more or less fortunate in their hearts.

Especially the reformer who has only been in the position for three months and has not even secured his position.

Kate can barely bear such a tragic casualty, but they may not be sure.

Ahem...

A 'corpse' leaning against a broken wall suddenly coughed out, and the sound was extremely uncomfortable.

Mixed with the struggling wailing of dying people.

Kate hurried forward.

A few men beside him were holding umbrellas for him, and they also followed quickly.

Pairs of footsteps crushed the bloody puddles.

Ivan also got out of the car and walked over slowly.

The majestic rain curtain blocked the line of sight.

You can see it when you get closer.

The man's abdomen was bleeding continuously, and he kept pressing hard, but his whole face was already pale, and the cold rain took away too much body heat.

Can't live long.

He was leaning against the wall, his legs twisted in a weird posture, which was broken by someone.

So even though he knew he was seriously injured, he couldn't go to the nearby clinic,

If you use the crawling method, you may lose too much blood and die before you climb halfway.

He looked up at Kate and the others who came, and smiled miserably.

Boss...then... that machine is really accurate.

Kate crouched down slowly.

He reached out to uncover the broken clothes on the man's abdomen, and saw the horrible and hideous wound.

Don't talk, don't force, I'll take you to a nearby clinic.

Kate tried to pick the man up.

But it soon stopped amidst the man's painful wailing.

is the back.

His back was bleeding too.

Only then did Kate realize that a rusty steel bar had penetrated the man's body.

The steel head was buried in the man's stomach, and the tail came out from the back, and was firmly attached to the wall behind.

This man was crucified here.

That...the machine broke my two legs, nailed me here, and said...that before I die, I will see you bring someone over, Boss, so...he asked me to leave a word .”

Ahem...

The corner of the man's mouth was also bleeding, and his internal organs were ruptured.

Judging from the medical level in the mixed area, after such a long time, it is hopeless.

He said... said... his next location is... Lord Allen's place.

The robot Alan who was rejoicing suddenly became stupid.

The icy rain poured down.

Now he suddenly wanted to say a few dirty words related to the account book.

Not long after, the man died.

Just as the other party planned, he has been waiting to die in the heavy rain, and left a confession before he died.

I can't wait anymore, go to my place immediately, I'm afraid that bastard has already started to move! Allen said hastily.

The current action needs to wait for Ivan's instructions.

Ivan didn't move, and neither could they.

Master Ivan, that machine...

Don't worry, we'll go there right away.

Ivan waved his hand to signal Allen to calm down.

He turned back to the car.

Kate, the blue man, turned his head to look at the tragedy on his own street, and ordered to the subordinates who stayed here: All the brothers who died, and those who have family members at home, can get a share of the property, arrange it immediately, and then... …clean up the streets.”

These bodies are evidence of his debilitation.

He didn't want those guys who were just about to move to see it.

Although the fire and explosion tonight cannot be concealed no matter what.

The second floor was burned.

After explaining, Kate also turned around and returned to the car.

The convoy set off again.

The site of the robot Allen is even further away, a full 30 kilometers away.

But this time the team's speed was faster, probably because of Allen's mood, so Ivan told the leading car to go as fast as possible.

half an hour later.

The destination has arrived.

The heavy rain poured down, and the wheels came to a standstill.

The sight in front of him almost made Lord Allen roar uncontrollably.

Ivan opened the car door and got out of the car, with anger hidden in those small eyes.

He gritted his teeth and spit out two words coldly.

Boil the eagle.
