Chapter 148 (1/2)
Grant looked at Joey, who was walking in front of him. He didn't feel ashamed of his concession.
Even if it's a murderer, sometimes it's necessary to know how to advance and retreat. Otherwise, in the catching operation of the Earth Federation, the clown will be dead long ago. Where can he still be as alive as now.
There are more than 1000 people in the 91 area test base of the whole alliance, including more than 100 dead prisoners, and only 12 survivors who finally enter the broken star sky. Among the twelve, except Xiaolian and Linfeng, all the others are death row prisoners and five are serial killers.
These five serial killers, in addition to Joey, the ”dissector”, have different life paths, but they all have normal social life. In other words, although their world outlook and values are different from those of normal people, they all have their own codes of conduct.
Even Rand, who is an antisocial character, has his own code of conduct. ”Fireworks” Rand is a fatal threat to any human city. Its power is equal to that of a human shaped nuclear bomb, but such a killer is a firm animal protector.
Among the five killers, only the ”dissector” Joey's life path is completely different from others. Joey or Qin Lun has never lived a normal life since he was eight years old. He has been tossing and turning between the mental hospital and the prison.
Although Qin Lun read a lot in prison and learned by himself, he had no life goal, no emotional bondage, and no code of conduct.
Grant once thought that Joey, though cruel and violent, should be better at dealing with each other than Qin Lun, who was unpredictable. But when he saw Joey, the joker was shocked that the ”dissector” was moody and could not communicate at all.
No code of conduct may be dangerous, but at least Qin Lun won't hurt people innocently. But Joey is different. It is said that Joey, the ”dissector”, is a self-protection personality born of Qin Lun's subconscious mind and is specially responsible for killing. He almost completely released the dark side of Qin Lun's character, and even created the ”skeleton angel”, a cruel act that other murderers all marveled at.
Grant, unlike Lin Feng and others, is not afraid of Joey. However, he is seriously injured now, and Joey is a pervert who doesn't care about life and death at all. In front of the mad dog, if you want to retreat all over, even the killer will have to dodge the edge a little.
Grant glanced greedily at the package in Joey's hand, sighed softly and turned away. He's not in a hurry. Joey can't communicate. It doesn't matter. He has a chance to discuss with Qin Lun about buying this ”souvenir”.
”Where's the clown, the little bat of Wittenberg?” Joey, who was walking in front of him, suddenly turned around and asked, with a strange smile on his face.
”Bats?” Grant, with a slight pause, frowned and asked, ”is it right to call them together now?”
There's a reason for Grant's asking. He and Qinlun have discussed before. If you follow the clues provided by Xiaolian and Lily and receive the hidden branch of the main plot, then you will directly break away from the ”gentleman alliance” and transfer the strategy of the temporary team to the hidden branch. After all, the main task of assassinating the heads of the three major allies is too difficult to accomplish with their strength.
”Oh, I see...” Joey asked. He didn't talk to grant anymore. He had seen the vampire bat huddled in a corner of the passage. Just a move, there will be a little bat fluttering wings, stopped on his shoulder.
Joey's eyes flashed red and he grabbed the bat on his shoulder with a grim smile. With a pinch of his right hand, the little bat ”squeaked” and turned into a pool of blood mud. After the bat turned into blood mud, it still seemed to have life. After a few surges, it slowly turned to ashes and fell from Joey's fingers.
Vampire bats are made from the flesh and blood of Baron Wittenberg. Each death will bring certain damage to the baron. If all vampire bats die, Wittenberg will not exist.
These little bats have little intelligence. They can only send simple messages to the Baron through ultrasound. For example: just now, as long as the vampire bat didn't return to weidenbelle in the battle between Qin Lun and Jones and Catlin, he could only know about Qin Lun's encounter with the battle, but he didn't know the object and details of the battle.
Before the ”gentlemen's alliance” was dispersed, weidenbelle once explained to the public that he would put bats back when he met a strong enemy. Then he would combine the intelligence of all the people, infer the hiding place of the three leaders, and then summon the public to attack.
However, this idea was basically broken before it was implemented, because all members of the ”gentlemen's Union” met strong enemies on the way, so they could not escape.
Of course, the ”gentlemen's alliance” did not fail to consider this, so they agreed that when someone broke through the enemy's interception and found valuable targets or information about unconventional forces of war, he would kill the little bats around him.
Weidenberg set a code for all the little bats. Once someone killed the little bats, the other little bats would receive a specific signal and use the call to remind their own people that some members have found an important target. Don't wait for little bats to come and go. It's a waste of time.
