Vol 23 Chapter 7-1: Gather, Raccoon City!(I) (1/2)
“Is that so? Team China made you say that?”
Team Africa had individual flying devices, but there weren't enough of them. They only had two, so they had no alternative but to be like team China in the early days.
They used a small basket to carry the extra people. This naturally resulted in their speed not being particularly fast. At least five days after the final battle begun, they still hadn't found Raccoon City’s location.
At noon on the sixth day, they met a team of three, two men and one women, slowly walking in the countryside. Just in deductive powers, Neos wasn't too much worse than Xuan. He could clearly infer these three were a God’s Realm team. He immediately gave orders to intercept them.
This team was team Northern Ice Land that had unfortunately met team China before. Unluckily for them, their power was too weak. They had neither a large member count nor individual flying devices. Adding to how dangerous this movie was, they no longer even knew where they were. As soon as team Africa surrounded them, they lay down their arms and surrendered.
Neos enquired about their situation. The three hurriedly gave out team China’s message. Neos immediately sunk deep into thought when he heard the message.
“An interesting thinking. Is team China planning to declare war against team Celestial and team Devil at the same time?” Neos muttered as he ate his chocolate.
The people around him were all used to his contemplations, and all ignored him. Only a muscular white man asked in a low voice. “How about them?”
“Kill them. They can’t live long anyways. They’ll either die by monsters or be wiped given how they’re aimlessly walking around. Why not kill them and accumulate a kill count of three? You all decide who kills them. Don’t disturb me.” Neos looked at the three, before proceeding to talk indifferently.
As the three shouted and cursed, Neos gradually sunk into deep thought. A crack began to slowly open on his forehead. On closer inspection, it was as if there was a third eye there.
“It’s hard to understand team China’s actions. What kind of circumstances would make them act so recklessly without restraint?” Neos muttered. He used his hand to touch the crack on his forehead. The crack slowly opened some, looking really like an eye.
“There are three possibilities. One is that their strength reached a certain level. They don’t need to care about the situation, and just need to kill people as they see them. But this probability is way too low. Based on the current situation, the strongest remains clone Zheng under the current restriction of large scale weapons. Team China shouldn't possess this sort of overwhelming power.”
“The second possibility is that this is Xuan's scheme, where there's a giant trap awaiting in the city for all the teams to fall into. This has a larger chance. But based on Xuan’s level, he couldn't possibly only lay out such a substandard scheme.
“The third possibility… has to do with team Devil and team Celestial?” Neos carefully went through the hypotheses in his heart.
After a long while, he said to the rest, “We’re entering Raccoon City as well. Our goal is to find team China as soon as possible. The items team Celestial discovered in the ruins are very dangerous. I suspect Adam's already used that item, or plans to use it in this movie. I have to quickly tell Xuan that and team Celestial’s weakness. This way, team Celestial will likely be knocked out immediately. What will remain will be for our team to work together with team China against team Devil!”
“Destination! Raccoon City!”
