Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland

Lu Meng looked up at the sky. The Reef was like a whale floating in the sky, blocking most of the rain and the light outside the drilling well.

This warship was undoubtedly their biggest threat at the moment. Unlike the harpoon cannon, it was a force that could destroy everything.

But now, the slings that pulled the Reef lost the power provided by the lake town and gradually locked up in the drilling well like sleeping. If you zoom in to the entire depression lagoon, you can see that the darkness spreads like water waves with the No. 0 community of the drilling platform as the center.

The lights in the city that were originally prosperous and never turned off all night went out one by one, the busy mechanical equipment stopped, and the whole town on the lake fell into silence.

There was only a storm.

The Reef warship was trapped in the air by its own slings in such a storm, like a fish in a net!

It was not Lu Meng's action that triggered him, but he realized that it was time to expose himself when he realized that the power switch was officially turned off.

Now, the Reef can certainly cut the slings at all costs and smash through the Raven, which is also trapped in the air with a great force.

But the premise is that it will be smashed to pieces together with itself!

The huge movement also alarmed the manager Green who was flattering Qin before. He looked behind him in surprise and saw the scene of Lu Meng breaking free from the shackles. Green had no men with him, and he had to hold the merchants hostage and wait for an opportunity. Naturally, he was worried about the arrested suspects moving freely, and Lu Meng did not have any weapons in his hands when he met him.

However, if you want to find a harpoon spear, the previous round of volleys from the Reef has already dropped tons of "ammunition".

It can be used at hand.

"What are you doing..." Green was still a little unsure. After all, no one could immediately connect the reverse spear that almost knocked down the watcher Qin with a simple traitor guard.

He thought it was just Lu Meng's unauthorized activities.

The manager was kneeling on the broken deck and confessing to Qin, but in front of Lu Meng, he obviously felt that it was not decent to do so. He held the axe in one hand and tried to stand up - but the next moment, a smooth and powerful palm pressed on his head.

Green could wield a large axe that could split solid steel with one hand, and his brute force was amazing, but he was not good at speed and group fighting. However, he could not stand up straight after being pressed by this hand.

Time seemed to be slowed down, his head slowly lowered, and his bones made a wailing sound.

Green was kneeling on one knee, but with a "click", his lower body suddenly flush with the deck - the man's legs were broken, crushing the yellow pear wood board and sinking into it.

"Bang!"

The merchant couple who knelt on the ground next to them screamed in fear, and the broken bones and blood splashed on their faces. In their eyes, the manager was like a balloon that exploded.

In just a moment, he turned from a fierce and strong thug into a bloody mess.

The body fell forward and fell beside his giant axe. Lu Meng's hand was still half-extended and pressed down, like a priest waiting to touch the head of a believer, but the blood in his palm was quickly washed away by the heavy rain.

Leaving light red water.

At this time, he looked at Lin Ji.

This prosecutor had indeed taken action before Qin ordered the Reef to open fire, but there was another figure beside her.

Bo, who had completely changed her clothes, was wearing an assassin's outfit that could blend into the shadows. The mask covered her mouth and nose, revealing only a pair of sharp eyes, and even her female features were not very visible.

She jumped out from under the broken board and stopped Lin Ji halfway, so now it was unclear whether the other party wanted to rush to the side of the ship or pounce in the direction of Lu Meng.

Lin Ji reunited with the assassin she was quite curious about. She should have been very concerned, but now the prosecutor seemed to have not noticed anything. Her eyes just stared blankly at Lu Meng who was bathing in the wind and rain.

Her expression seemed to be frozen and did not change. The whole face looked more like a smooth jade against the background of the sliding rain. But from the slightly enlarged pupils, it was enough to show the surprise in the woman's heart:

"...Xiao Lu?"

With an uncertain tone, it seemed that the scene just now, together with this young man, had turned back into an illusion in her imagination.

Because it was too incredible.

They were still in the battlefield and crisis, the watchers in the sky, the Reef battleship with full strings... But now Lin Ji felt that none of these seemed to matter. Questions filled her heart, and each one urgently needed an answer.

But she didn't know where to start.

"Inspector Lin." Lu Meng nodded. He could see that, but he didn't mean to answer.

The young man spoke in a flat tone, and his face was no longer smiling as before, as if they had never met before: "I know why you came here."

"You are here to die."

Lin Ji's strength is extraordinary, and she can be the leader of the team based on this alone, but if it comes to reconnaissance and searching for clues... As an examiner, her ability in this area is indeed insufficient, and even worrying.

The latter is theoretically the most important assessment factor for this trip to the depression lagoon.

Lin Ji killed the old man guarding the secret room. Although he had no choice but to do so, he actually did not feel much regret for the permanent loss of information. Later, when Luo Yousheng was about to reveal her identity, he did not hesitate to kill her first, and did not consider it. Factors in interrogation and obtaining evidence.

In addition, she was not very enthusiastic about the goods on the Raven. The purpose of traveling all the way to the central community was to face Watcher Qin himself...

Then, there is only one purpose.

——Killed by him.

That's why he was able to be reckless all the way, without even having time to wait for the support of his companions, and go deep alone without fear of death... because Lin Ji had already chosen his ending from the beginning.

The only difference is that it needs to be grand.

If you want to say why.

That is, as a prosecutor and a disciple of the Sword Master, the fact that she was killed is the only basis for Black Scratch to convict and take action against Watcher Qin!

Lu Meng just said a word, but Lin Ji took a step back as if she had been hit by a heavy cannon. Huge waves arose in her heart, and her frozen expression disintegrated inch by inch, not because of fear, but because the biggest secret all along was Being seen through like this, I'm at a loss what to do.

Still attracted by the person in front of me.

She recalled what a senior executive of a technology hunter said to her before leaving:

"Whether it's enslaving civilians to raise soldiers or colluding with criminals to smuggle and sell drugs... To you who grew up in Black Scratch Town, these may be unforgivable crimes. They even violate the organizational regulations of technology hunters..."

"But, outside this world, everything is like this."

Even if she had the ability to collect all the irrefutable evidence and report it to the headquarters for internal review... the final result would be nothing more than a major blood change in Depression Lagoon, and she could justifiably focus on attacking Qin's men.

But it will never involve Qin himself.

Who else can judge a war-level person?

Of course, even if it is the former result, Qin cannot accept it. This is a huge loss for him, so he has to obstruct the layout at every turn before breaking away from the technology hunters.

And so is his confidence.

From the beginning, no matter what the degree... I have always been in an invincible position.

"The moment a principle is established, it is meant to be broken." The man sighed, "As a member of the Technology Hunters, you have read so many documents, and you should know how much decline our civilization has experienced from ancient times to the present. ——But the regulations of the Technology Hunters were set when this organization was founded. The participants were all outstanding people at that time, including even the number one watcher in the sequence, the one who found the second intelligent core... ...Ha, he may not be considered a hunter, but how can we, the younger generation, afford these people’s expectations?”

Many regulations are no longer applicable in today's environment. The black scratches have not changed them, but they still inevitably become a dead letter.

A feeling of powerlessness surged into Lin Ji's heart, but she asked without giving up: "Then there are no rules, rules, regulations... No matter what, there is no one that technology hunters are not allowed to break until now?"

"...Yes." The senior executive gave her a meaningful look.

"The traitor will never be forgiven."

The technology hunters are loosely organized, and the so-called betrayal naturally does not include normal personnel movements, joining and quitting... but actually fighting against one's own brothers and putting them to death.

It is definitely a betrayal to make such a choice despite having a different program.

If an organization could even forgive such traitors who killed each other.

But there is no need for it to exist.

Of course, with Qin's status and strength, even if he kills one or two unruly technology hunters, others won't say much.

It can even be legalized through operation and regarded as a punishment imposed by the watcher...

But if the black-scratched censor died in his hands, it would be unexplainable. It would be regarded as a blatant disobedience to the headquarters, and the contradiction would be exposed to the public.

Most of the hunters in Lake Town would not follow Qin, so the watcher would be forced to rise up without adequate preparation.

Even at this time, it is difficult for anyone to punish him, but this is definitely the strongest blow that Lin Jie can make based on his identity and skills!

At least, there is a chance to wait until Alke can successfully escape from Kirishima... Just like Qin said, even Lin Ji, as his disciple, is not very sure about this matter.

"The path..." Her eyes trembled, and the figure of that person was reflected in her pupils - the young man who disguised himself as a guard, walked along the way, and threw a shocking spear, and asked the question:

"Who are you?"

"First meeting..." This time, Lu Meng smiled.

But at this moment, a continuous terrifying roar came again from the circular sky circled by the drilling - the sailors on the battleship Reef, who had been knocked to the ground by the violent jolts, quickly cheered up and resumed their operations. turret.

delivered a belated blow from the Watch.

It was also at this moment that Lu Meng sensed that Chad finally led all the drifters to the bottom cabin, opened the hatch, and threw the heavy cargo and ballast stones one by one into the underground river.

As a cargo ship, the Raven could originally have an extremely deep draft, but this time it lost nearly half its weight.

Watcher Qin also recovered from the fear of dodging the spears. The anchor he was holding was swinging back and forth like a swing in the entire drilling hole under the intense force.

His eyes were filled with anger.

It seemed that he could burn through everyone.

At the same time, white steam began to rise from Lu Meng's body: the blood in his veins was boiling like a rushing river, as if it resonated with the surging waves. The body of this young man became as hot as a furnace in almost an instant.

Even the storm could not extinguish it.

In full view of the crowd, he jumped up to meet the steel spears falling from the sky, and the impact force under his feet directly shattered the already broken deck.

Some merchants had already run down wisely after seeing Green being killed, but there were still a few who were too timid to stand up. At this moment, after the deck was broken, they fell to the next level without even noticing it.

Lu Meng climbed the mast, and he jumped more than ten meters high with one effort. The next moment he jumped up again and grabbed the rope that pulled the entire Raven. The sturdy mast was instantly broken into pieces under the impact of the back force.

In the strong wind, it was blown away endlessly.

Bo pulled the sluggish Lin Ji and rushed to the side of the ship. She was small in stature, but her strength was amazing. She almost dragged the Inquisitor on her back, and then jumped off the Raven.

As a native of Lake Town.

She has always been a master of water.

In Lin Ji's vision, the Raven, which was just under her feet, really shrank smaller and smaller this time, like a raven that had been flying in the air, and flew farther and farther away from herself.

"Nice to meet you, Lin Ji." The last voice of that person echoed in her ears:

"I am..."

"Lu Beiyou!"

In the hand of the white-haired young man, a long weapon with a scarlet blade appeared, like a knife or a sword.

He inserted the inscription blade into the stuck sling, and with a flick of his wrist, the iron ring with a diameter as thick as a bowl was cut off like tofu. The entire Raven freighter creaked like a roar and left the platform of Community 2.

Lu Meng cut again.

This time, he directly cut off the pulley that was stuck in the freighter due to power failure.

Without power, the Raven could not descend smoothly, but...

At least it could fall directly!

However, its start was still not as fast as the harpoon cannon with initial acceleration. Even though Lu Meng's skills were extremely fast, it was just a shadow in the eyes of ordinary people, but the iron rain spears in the sky still caught up with the freighter.

The number was twice as much as before.

The huge ship and the tiny person on it were all covered.
