Fantasy Game: Infinite City

Two hours later.

Ledger sat up from his boss chair, stretched, pressed the answering machine on the solid wood desk in front of him, and called a few of his confidants over.

"Tuk-tuk."

"Enter."

"Boss."

A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door of Layed's office, and several of Layed's trusted men walked into the office. Layed waved at them and asked them to sit on the chairs in front of the desk.

"How's the cooperation with the rebels going?"

"Most of the content has been finalized, but they are still very greedy about the division of the Night Owl organization's territory."

"Then just agree to them. After all, they are all going to die. Greed always comes at a price."

Layed was not surprised by the rebels' exorbitant demands. He was very familiar with the styles of the rebel leaders. To be honest, if he did not need the soldiers under their command, Layed would have found an opportunity to kill them and replace them with his own people. However, since they were so greedy, this matter should probably be put on the agenda after he succeeds in taking power.

"Hasn't Hammond come back yet?"

"No, and we have lost all contact with Hammond. The two teams that were sent to support him are searching along the route that Hammond might have chosen, but they have not found anything so far."

"The last time Hammond communicated with me, he said he was somewhere on the winding mountain road. Go and ask someone to check. If we can't find him, then he is likely to have been captured alive or killed. Judging from the fact that Himos went to great lengths to surround Skandrand with heavy troops, I think the possibility of capturing him alive is relatively high."

The Sheamus mentioned by Ledley is the behind-the-scenes leader of the "Night Owl" organization. As the leader of this underground leader, Sheamus possesses enormous power and a large number of supporters. If Sheamus had not been too radical recently, causing complaints from many followers, Ledley was not actually planning to overthrow Sheamus' rule recently. However, Sheamus made a deal with someone and started to make small moves against the behemoth Infinite Company. This made Ledley feel the crisis. In order to ensure that he would not be implicated by Sheamus' actions, Ledley made up his mind to completely overthrow Sheamus' rule.

However, Sheamus himself is not a small character who can be manipulated by anyone, and the mysterious ally behind him is indeed very powerful. In just about half a year, the thugs of the "Night Owl" organization under Sheamus' management have been transformed into an elite force with standard military equipment and a lot of high-tech weapons and equipment, not to mention that a few people have gained abilities or powers that surpass humans.

In order to fight against Himos and his allies behind him, Led chose a path that might be no different from drinking poison to quench thirst. He used his personal connections to bribe several people inside Infinite Company and asked them to act as spies to steal some high-tech and enhanced equipment from inside Infinite Company and use the strength of Infinite Company to gather some information. In short, he used a series of methods that Infinite Company did not like to fight against Himos. This is the ins and outs of the traitor inside Infinite Company.

Originally, this plan could be considered flawless, but a few days ago, several spies who were bribed by himself inside the Unlimited Company brought bad news. The original operation went wrong. On the night of the operation, when the personnel went to steal the scientific research project in a secret base of the Unlimited Company, they ran into a tough guy and were captured alive. After interrogation, the other party immediately launched a search for the people who were interrogated. In the end, all members of the action team died, but this is not the point.

The point is that the person who discovered the action personnel that night, these traitors could not find out his identity. His identity information was no longer a priority issue. His identity file was personally reviewed by the current chairman of the unlimited company. In other words, apart from the chairman, if you want to know the information of this person, you either have to find it yourself or ask him directly. However, from the information learned by the bribed traitors, this mysterious person seems to belong to a department inside the unlimited company that does not exist in the records. According to past experience, this person is either a scavenger or an executioner, and judging from the importance the chairman attaches to him, he is definitely not a small role. And there is also news that this person left the secret base before the search operation was completely over, and no one knew where he went. It was only learned from the side that his actions this time also did not appear in any records inside the unlimited company.

As a man who had worked his way up to his current position in a place like Q City, Led quickly thought of where the mysterious man from Infinite Company might appear, which was Q City. According to the behavior of a behemoth like Infinite Company, they would definitely not be happy to have a traitor under their noses, so they would definitely find the identities of these traitors at all costs. The fastest way would be to find the people who bribed these traitors and interrogate them.

This is where Ledd's brilliance lies. Due to his deliberate vagueness of information, Ledd is very sure that the fire will not burn him, because he has never mentioned his identity in the process of contacting those traitors. Instead, he has intentionally or unintentionally revealed that he is a senior member of the "Night Owl" organization. In view of the recent radical behavior of the leader of the "Night Owl" organization, Shimos, against the employees of Infinite Company, if things really go wrong, Infinite Company will only suspect the "Night Owl" organization and its boss Shimos. Except for some completely trustworthy subordinates, no one knows what Ledd is doing.

However, there is one thing that makes Led feel a little uneasy. That is a rumor that has been circulating in Q City, within the rebel sphere of influence, and within the "Night Owl" organization's sphere of influence since a few days ago. It is about a guy wearing strange armor who massacred rebel soldiers and members of the "Night Owl" organization. In addition, before that, Shimos's "farm" and private club had suffered serious attacks. It was difficult for Led not to associate these things together.

"How's the situation at the base?"

"Everything is normal, Boss. There are no unusual reports from any of the sentries. We just checked nearby and our people are training and working normally."

"Well, that's good. By the way, the rebels have taken over the coalition government and are currently undergoing repairs. Our cooperation with the rebels will soon begin. During this period, everyone should be smart and not cause any trouble. Keep a low profile. Do you understand?"

"Understood boss."

"Well, go ahead. I have nothing to do here."

"Boss, Hammond's side..."

"Go and do a simple investigation around the Panshan Road. If you don't find anything, forget it. From now on, keep an eye on everything that Hammond is in charge of. We can't let our guard down."

"clear."

Waving his hand, Layed asked several of his confidants to leave and do what he asked. After they left the office, Layed began to sort out his thoughts. For some reason, Hammond's disappearance always made Layed feel uneasy. He called several guards around him and asked them to prepare a car for him immediately. Layed suddenly felt a little scared and prepared to leave the military base for two days.

"Let's get ready right away, Boss."

Several trusted guards left the office, closed the door, and went to prepare vehicles and other things for Led. Only Led and a female secretary were left. The secretary handed a terminal to Led and began to report to him on the various situations in the base. However, Led felt more and more uneasy, so he stopped the conversation. He was not in the mood to deal with the things reported to him by the secretary for the time being.

Then Ledger's secretary was ready to have some "exercise" with Ledger to let him relax, but Ledger was not in the mood and waved his hand. The secretary sensibly left the office and closed the door, leaving Ledger to have some peace and quiet.

Led picked up the whiskey and glass on the desk, poured himself a glass of wine, stood up with the glass, walked to the bed in the office, and drank the whiskey while watching the soldiers training on the training ground below. Perhaps it was the soldiers in training that gradually relaxed him. After drinking the whiskey in the glass, Led breathed a sigh of relief.

"call...."

The glass was empty, and Layed was about to turn around and pour another glass of whiskey, but when he turned halfway, he found that there seemed to be something special on a training ground not far away. Reaching out to pick up the bottle of wine on the desk, while pouring himself a drink, Layed looked at the place that had attracted his attention just now.

That location is a small training ground. Those who train there are generally some of his elite soldiers. These soldiers are all strengthened by equipment or strengthening devices that Led had stolen from Infinite Company through traitors. Generally, the training is related to those equipment and strengthened abilities, and ordinary soldier training is seldom conducted. However, now they are all standing at attention, which surprised Led.

However, after looking at it for a while, Led immediately discovered something unusual and the hair on his back stood up.

Because all the soldiers at that position were standing still, if only one or two soldiers who were not wearing full combat uniforms did that, it would not cause Layed to be in such a state. However, Layed clearly saw that one of the soldiers wearing heavy protective armor had kept one foot on the ground and the other foot in the air in a stepping posture for more than five minutes. Layed remembered that soldier, he had not undergone any form of physical enhancement.

Led immediately put down the whiskey and glass in his hands, pressed the answering machine on the table, and prepared to call the guard again. However, there was no answer from the other side of the answering machine. Led calmed himself down, picked up the terminal in the drawer, and pressed the alarm button. Suddenly, the shrill alarm inside the base sounded, echoing in Led's ears. Led immediately looked out the window, but he clearly saw that in the training area not far from the office downstairs, none of the soldiers left their positions.

"Damn it!"

Led took out his pistol from the drawer, checked the bullets, and called the guard again. After receiving no response, Led immediately left his office, went downstairs and entered the training ground in the base. He quickly walked to the soldier closest to him and patted him.

"puff."

The soldier's body fell down after being lightly touched by Layed. He fell to the ground and immediately turned into a handful of dust that scattered all over the ground. Layed immediately took a step back and looked around. Sure enough, in front of him, there were a large number of soldiers who remained in the same posture and motionless. It seemed that they had suffered the same fate as the soldier who fell into dust.

Ryed raised his pistol and immediately walked cautiously and quickly to the area where he usually left the base. During this time, all the soldiers Ryed met stood still, maintaining their original posture and not moving. He walked to the vehicle that his confidant had arranged for him. Ryed found that two of his guards had suffered the same fate as those soldiers.

One of the guards was very close to his car. Led looked at his car and silently took a few steps back. His car might have been tampered with. Led immediately turned around and left, preparing to leave the current base through other exits.

When he arrived at another exit, Ledger found the secretary who had just talked to him. She was holding the terminal in one hand and the documents she had shown him before in the other. She kept moving forward and stood in the same place. Ledger reached out and touched the secretary's shoulder. Sure enough, the secretary's body fell down and turned into a handful of ashes, which fell to the ground along with the terminal and documents in her hands.

"boom!"

"Boom!"

At the same time, Layed heard continuous explosions coming from all around him. Layed thought to himself that something was wrong and immediately quickened his pace and ran towards the exit where he was originally planning to go. When he arrived at the exit, he saw that the exit had been blown up. Based on the number of explosions he had just heard, Layed could guess that all the exit locations in the base should have been blown up, and the other party wanted to control him in the base.

However, Layed did not give up. In addition to these regular exits, there were several secret exits in the base. Layed walked to the locations of these secret exits one by one. When he was about to leave through one of the exits, he found that the alarm in the base had stopped. Then all the doors in the base that were still working normally were remotely locked. Someone had invaded the security control room in the base.

But as the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. The base now has two exits that can be used. One is the elevator platform for parking helicopters, and the other is a small one-person submarine in the ship maintenance area. The elevator platform is very large and its function is too obvious. If the enemy is well prepared, then that position is probably occupied, so the only exit left is the small one-person submarine. Led clenched his pistol and rushed over quickly.

However, when he arrived at the small single-person submarine in the ship's maintenance area, Ledger saw a tall and strong man leaning next to the console that controlled the sling and greeted him.

"Leyede?"

"Bang bang bang!!"

Layed instantly raised his pistol and fired three shots at the man. Each shot hit the man's forehead, but the bullet was completely unable to penetrate the man's skin. Layed immediately threw away the pistol and suddenly disappeared on the spot.

"If you like to play hardball, well, then I'll play with you."

"Boom."

The man's body suddenly exploded and turned into a ball of turbid gray mist, which also disappeared on the spot.
