Zhou Lin - Chapter 173 On the verge of breaking out

In the evening, at 11:30, the landing team that broke into the city of Narvik from the northeast was basically wiped out.

Only a handful of soldiers escaped back to the coast alive, but because they landed by diving, they could no longer retreat to the submarine. They could only find uninhabited buildings to hide in the cold night and pray for safety. He will not be discovered until reinforcements arrive.

But that… is undoubtedly a luxury.

The remnants of the rebels were far more familiar with the terrain than the newly arrived federal troops. In addition, the relationship between the two sides had already reversed in terms of numbers and momentum. It was only a matter of time before the former could completely annihilate the latter.

Little Bowman, on the other hand, had long regarded these landing soldiers as abandoned soldiers; he would not take the risk of commanding the fleet to land to rescue those on the shore, he would just hide the safe command ship under the ice sea. Inside, waiting for… the arrival of Golden Lion County’s cruiser fleet and that man.

That man’s name was Nakanwo, a strange name with no surname and unknown origin.

However, the name itself is never important. What is important is the meaning behind it; the meaning of the three words Nakanwo is – the highest combat power in the Federation, the strongest guard officer, the official EAS There is no one considered the strongest mutant…

Although EAS believes that Nakanwo’s control of supernatural powers and physical skills are only at the ferocious level, this does not affect his strongest status.

There are two reasons: first, his ability is energy manipulation that can be called a bug; second, he is an Omega-level mutant.

Just how strong this mutant is… Just refer to Shi Sanwen to find out.

However, the current Nakanwo is still inferior to Shi Sanwen, because he is still very young; Nakanwo is forty-five years old this year, and to ordinary people, he is already a middle-aged man, but in the past From the perspective of a high-ranking mutant, he still has a long life ahead of him… assuming he doesn’t die an unexpected death.

Most of the time, Nakanvor stayed at his residence in Iceland, where there was an entire luxury residential area built specifically for him by the federation.

He is the only resident in this entire area, and everyone else is his servant.

In that residential area, Nakanwo is like an emperor. Regardless of food, clothing, housing, and transportation, as long as it is what he wants, the federation will provide it, and the price is never an issue; in addition, Nakanwo can also command others to do whatever he wants. Things – he can make men kneel in front of him and kowtow until they die alive, and he can also make women sleep with him at any time and place.

These people who are responsible for serving him are all obtained by the Federation through various unconventional means and specially used as slaves for Nakanwo; and these people usually have only one result in the end, which is death.

But before that… As the saying goes, it is better to live than to die. Everyone has the will to live. After all, there are only a few people who will choose to kill themselves directly. Most people will adapt to the life in front of them, even if they are slaves.

Fortunately for them, Nakanwo was not a sadist or pervert. In terms of desire, he was relatively ordinary.

He likes high-end cuisine, young and beautiful girls, elegant and comfortable clothes, and a spacious and comfortable environment… In short, these are the preferences of normal people, but not everyone has the conditions to realize them.

He also did not start pursuing twisted and pathological stimulation just because all his needs could be satisfied for a long time, such as eating exotic food, attacking minors, and deliberately making others suffer.

His only problem, or behavior that looks like mental illness, is…his inability to connect emotionally with people.

Once Nakanwo feels that he has a relationship with someone, becomes a friend, or has a feeling similar to love or family affection, he will not be able to help but kill the other person.

This was not his choice, but an instinct-like impulse that he himself could not explain.

This is why the people who come to serve him must die in the end…

Based on this point, the federal agency responsible for providing him with supplies and servants will also explain to the servants who are preparing to transport him in advance that they must not think about flattering to the master, but do their part and do their best. Treat yourself as a tool and you will live longer.

Of course, Nakanwo, who enjoyed so many ridiculous privileges granted by the federation, also had to pay a corresponding price – when the federation needed him, he also had to perform tasks.

Regarding the mission, Nakanwo also has his own principles. He made an agreement with the Federation that he will only participate in actions against one or more ability users who cannot be resisted by ordinary escort officers, and will not intervene in a ‘war’ unless it is absolutely necessary. ” In other words, if the Federation asked him to carry out a large-scale massacre on the frontal battlefield, he could, and there was a high chance that he would refuse. Unless the federation says, If you don’t take action, our entire regime will cease to exist, then he will consider breaking the law.

Today, the task of assisting Operation Paint Shovel and exterminating members of the Anti-Cross was undoubtedly in line with his principles, and he had no reason to refuse.

Therefore, after receiving the notice, he simply packed up, and when the ship that came to pick him up docked, he boarded the ship and set off.

…………

Midnight was coming, and according to Yevgeny’s calculations, the reinforcements he requested should arrive.

But, it didn’t arrive.

The fleet from Golden Lion County has not arrived.

The ship responsible for receiving Kanvor… also didn’t arrive.

Not only did no one come, but there was no reply to the communication. This abnormality made even a calm counselor like Yevgeny fall into confusion and panic.

…………

At the same time, the Norwegian Sea, the waters east of the Faroe Islands.

The Edinburgh United Fleet, known as the world’s strongest naval fleet, sailed from the federal Edinburgh Naval Base and was staying on the sea, waiting quietly.

They had arrived in this sea area an hour ago, but at that time the fleet commander, General Gavin, suddenly ordered the entire ship to stop sailing and stay put.

During this hour, the naval base contacted Gavin and asked him why he suddenly stopped moving forward. He responded with the reason that an unknown target was detected, suspected of being an enemy reconnaissance aircraft; while Little Bowman sent a reply. All incoming communication requests were rejected by Gai Wen.

Seeing that the other party ignored him, Bowman was quite annoyed, so he bypassed him and contacted the Edinburgh Naval Base directly. The naval base relayed Gavin’s reply. When he contacted Gavin again, Gavin had the same tone, and Still refused to speak directly to Bowman Jr.

This strange stalemate seemed to others as if Gavin deliberately did not want to support Little Bowman, but the strange thing was that before the fleet set off, it was Gavin who took the initiative to be the commander of the support force.

The secret behind this, at least for now, no one in the Federation understands it…

…………

Las Vegas, on the other hand.

The food you have here is so delicious, I’m almost addicted to it. Sakaki said as he put a mouthful of natto rice into his mouth.

At this time, he was sitting in Masako’s restaurant with Solid, accepting each other’s hospitality.

Since his right hand was injured during a gambling game in the early hours of that morning, Sakaki could only use his left hand to eat for the time being. However, this was no problem to him, because there is no such thing as a dominant hand for gamblers of his level. Yes, both chopsticks and mouse can be used to shoot left and right.

Are you trying to take the bait with these words and then offer to stay here? Masako, who was sitting opposite Sakaki, held his chin in one hand and looked at him with an unhappy look on his face.

Have you discovered all this? Sakaki responded with a smile.

So is this something you did on the spur of the moment, or did your boss Zi Lin arrange it in advance? When Masako asked this, he actually already had the answer in his heart.

Haha… until now, there is no distinction between ‘you’ and ‘us’. We are all in the same boat. Sakaki also knew that the other party felt like Ming Jing’er in his heart, so he dismissed it with a haha.

Understood… Masako continued, It doesn’t matter if you leave someone by my side to monitor me… I won’t care about such small things. Anyway, as far as I am concerned, since I have decided to cooperate with you, there is nothing good. Hidden. At this point, she moved her gaze to Sakaki’s bandaged right hand, Compared to that kind of thing, I still haven’t figured it out…what kind of weird setting is your ability? The gun exploded just as you were about to kill yourself.

Hearing this, Sakaki glanced around and said, There are many people here, how about I tell you quietly some other time?

It’s okay if you don’t want to say it… Masako also took a bite and put on a noncommittal expression, Since you can see through my ability, there is no reason why I can’t see through yours; if you stay here, I will Just in time to observe you more… She paused, Also, please remember, I did not ‘lose’ to you. The victory or defeat between you and me as gamblers is only reserved for the time being. , I will compete with you one day.

Okay~ Sakaki shrugged and smiled, You can do whatever you say, Masako-sama… He ate again, then changed the subject and asked something more serious, By the way, I’m also curious about something. ’s… How on earth did you get General Gavin to do what you wanted? Delaying a military plane is a serious crime. If the consequences are serious, the military court may sentence him to life or even death… He wouldn’t do it just for the sake of point. Money is…

Early this morning… Masako continued before he could finish his words, When you and I were playing roulette, in the underground casino next door to us, General Gavin’s two sons were sitting together. In a huge gamble, they lost some chips that they simply could not afford to pay.

“Although they think they can cheat and leave because of their family’s power, it’s obvious that they are not qualified enough to act wild here.

To make a long story short, he… is still detained by me. General Gavin wants to keep his son safe and sound, so he naturally has to obey our arrangements.

Hearing this, Solid suddenly said: What you did…should be more than that, right? Having been in the system and going to military courts, he was quite familiar with that stuff. , and he was also very aware of the urinary nature of these senior federal generals, so he wondered, A guy like this who has trained two second-generation ancestors is definitely not a good bird himself. In my opinion, he may not risk being sentenced. risking the death penalty to save his sons.

Ha… As expected of a ‘veteran’, he is insightful. Masako responded with a smile, You are right, in addition to using the lives of those two little bastards to threaten him, I also left him a way out. … She took a sip of the drink on the table and continued, At this moment, there is an unmanned maritime weather observation station near the sea area where Gavin is located; this type of observation station is very common near the Arctic Circle. All are contracted and managed by a private enterprise that won the bid through nepotism.

“Every year, this company only needs to release some drones, fly them casually according to the program, and upload some dispensable observation data, and it can defraud a large amount of government funding.

Companies like this are now found in various fields, and most of their bosses are frequent visitors to Las Vegas… I can make any one of them become a dog of our Shenwu Association as long as I set up a random game.

This time, I just called a few drones from one of the observation stations to fly a few times on the sailing route of Gavin’s fleet, and at least left some records on the opponent’s detection radar…

In this way, Gavin has an excuse to escape guilt. He can say that he stopped advancing because he was on guard against enemy attacks. The data on the ship can also show that he was not just talking. As for finding out the truth in the end, then It doesn’t matter anymore, anyway, based on the local situation at the time, you can’t judge that he was deliberately delaying the military plane…even if the court were to sentence him afterwards, it would not be a death penalty.”

After she finished speaking, she gracefully cut a small piece of steak into her mouth and took another sip of wine.

In these few seconds, Solid also finished digesting the information in this paragraph, and continued in a deep voice: She is indeed a reliable ally. I admire His Highness the Prince’s calculations…

It’s okay. Compared with you ‘that’, I’m afraid I’m nothing. Masako sneered, not sure whether he was really a little drunk or was pretending to be drunk, I don’t think Gavin’s two It would be a ‘coincidence’ that my son and you two appear in my territory on the same day. I can’t learn from your kind of ‘calculation’…

…………

At the same time, the Norwegian Sea, about three hundred nautical miles east of Iceland.

Ah sneeze… Zi Lin stood on the sea, sneezed, and said to himself, Huh… there must be another woman saying bad things about me behind my back.

You are simply too cold. A second later, another person’s voice sounded.

That person is none other than Nakanwo.

Like Zi Lin, Nakanwo was also standing on the sea at this time. He was not there a few seconds ago, but now he was firmly standing about five meters away from Zi Lin.

Why did the boat carrying you stop so far away? Zi Lin was not surprised and just said to the other party with a smile.

Isn’t the submarine carrying you parked far away? Nakanwo continued.

Ha… It seems that we have consensus on at least one point. Zi Lin said with a smile.

Yes… Nakanwo said, It is most suitable to fight you in a place where there are no other people within a few kilometers.
