Chapter 1555 Hearing Shao Tong Again
In the only guest house in Jinxiu Town, in a room on the fourth floor, Jiang Cheng was exchanging the latest information with Yao, Shunyu and Li Bai. Fatty was not here. Fatty had been very close to Su An recently, and it was said that he was still introduced by Su An. Xia gradually became familiar with some second-generation crimsons.
There has been a lot of news recently. The good news is that due to the country's absolute advantage, the remnants of the Night's Watch are retreating steadily. Once each stronghold is discovered, they will be attacked immediately. Except for a small number of surrenders, the rest are surrounded and annihilated.
But the bad news that followed was that under such a high-pressure attack, the remaining core members of the Night Watch became increasingly crazy and began to attack indiscriminately, even targeting schools, airports, stations, office buildings, and business districts. In such a densely populated area, the degree of madness is evident.
In such a high-intensity conflict, supernatural incidents occurred frequently in various places. Some of the most affected cities have even started martial law, notifying citizens not to go out unless necessary. Public transportation has been basically suspended, and all traffic arteries are guarded by soldiers with live ammunition. .
At the same time, casualties in the battle against the remnants of the Night's Watch were also increasing, especially the dark army under Mr. Luo who was charging at the forefront. It was said that the establishment had been disabled, and the number of casualties once exceeded two-thirds.
This is not entirely because the overall combat power of the dark army is weaker than that of the Night's Watch. A larger part of the reason is that these remnants of the Night's Watch are too cunning and cruel. They choose their hiding places in densely populated areas. The army with heavy firepower cannot use their hands freely. Can take advantage of the flexibility of the dark army to go to the clearing.
Once they start taking action, these desperadoes naturally have no worries, but the dark army is different. One can completely let go, while the other is restrained and unwilling to hurt innocent people. It is understandable that such casualties occur in comparison between the two. Lan
However, to everyone's relief, as the war progressed, more and more anonymous disciples hiding in every corner of the city began to step out of the shadows and actively join the war against the remnants of the Night Watch, including some of the former Night Watchmen. .
With the continuous injection of new forces, the overall size and quality of the dark army are also increasing, and they are beginning to gain the upper hand in the following battles.
Some supernatural incidents rated B and below do not even require official action. Within a few hours after the incident is exposed, no more than a day at the latest, it will be solved by the disciples who have not left their names, and in In the face of some high-level supernatural events, everyone will spontaneously form a team, conduct systematic research and judgment, and finally select a few capable and experienced disciples to lead the team. They will continue to attack in batches and finally defeat them after suffering heavy casualties. solve.
Among the major cities in the country, Dajing City and Shanghai City were the most affected, with the highest level of supernatural incidents and the heaviest casualties. The social order in some areas was close to collapse. However, through both official and private channels, , a steady stream of disciples came from all over the country to support them. After several days of fierce fighting, the haze that shrouded the two cities finally receded.
As these incidents were calmed down one by one, the surviving people slowly woke up, and more and more people began to accept the "alien" existence like the disciples. They were no longer shadows that could only hide in the dark night, but they were also the ones who stood guard. In the dark night, resist the invasion of nightmares for people before dawn.
In addition to these news about the overall situation, there is also a message specifically for Jiang Cheng. It was sent by Mr. Luo on his behalf. The content of the message is very simple. The identities of Tang Qisheng and Zhu Jie have been verified. There is no problem. According to the previous agreement , these two people can deliver it before this evening at the earliest.
More and more folk taboos have been encountered in recent missions. This aspect is Jiang Cheng's shortcomings. He has suffered a lot in several missions. Tang Qisheng and Zhu Jie happen to be masters in this lineage. Jiang Cheng wants to invite them to give I am a group of people who make up the lessons. Lan
In fact, Jiang Cheng's favorite candidate was Mr. Yu Chengmu. Unfortunately, this man had passed away, so Jiang Cheng had no choice but to offer him three sticks of incense in his heart.
Li Bai also knows a little about the rules of the underworld, but according to herself, she is also a second-hand swordsman who is superficial and doesn't understand many details, but with Li Bai here, she can put an end to Tang Qisheng and Zhu Jie's nonsense. possibility, otherwise once discovered, the consequences will be serious.
After a simple meal, everyone dispersed. Jiang Cheng was a little tired and planned to go back to his room to take a nap. But not long after he lay down and felt a little sleepy, he heard someone knocking on the door.
After the door opened, there was a somewhat familiar woman outside. Jiang Cheng remembered her as the adjutant of the person in charge here.
"Mr. Jiang, the person in charge asked me to invite you over. He has something very important to do." The woman's voice was breathy, and it was obvious that she had run all the way here.
Following the woman to a room on the second floor, she opened the door and saw a middle-aged man who had been waiting for a long time. There were several brown paper bags on the table in front of the man.
The man waved his hand, and the woman retreated, closing the door behind her. However, when she heard the footsteps, the woman did not go far, but stood guard outside the door. Lan
Seeing those brown paper bags, Jiang Cheng frowned slightly. First of all, he knew that today's incident must be related to the Crimson Base. Secondly, he was a little dissatisfied because he had already reminded the man not to touch the contents of the paper bags. Don't open it, it will only cause endless trouble.
"Mr. Jiang, please don't get me wrong. I have received authorization from above." The middle-aged man got straight to the point, "I came to you today to ask you something."
"I've told you everything I know about what's going on in the Crimson Base, and now that the base has been destroyed, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do about it."
Jiang Cheng almost had the words "Fan Kai Zun" written on his face. He didn't want to get too close to the man. After all, he was once a member of the Crimson. Who knows if it would involve him in the end.
"Do you know Shao Tong?" the middle-aged man suddenly asked.
Jiang Cheng hesitated for a moment. After all, he had never mentioned anything about Shao Tong to the man, and neither did Fatty. So he must have heard this content from elsewhere. This also verified that what the man said was true. He There was indeed some kind of authorization from the top.
After thinking briefly, Jiang Cheng nodded, "I know, he was my teammate in the last mission." Lan
"According to my information, this person named Shao Tong also came from Crimson, which is the underground base that was bombed not long ago." The man asked: "Is that so?"
"Yes." Jiang Cheng didn't hide anything.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Jiang Cheng's answer, the man took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Jiang, I have to tell you that according to the information we compiled, there has never been anyone named Shao Tong in that base."
