The Fire Chaser of the Collapsing World

He turned into a side alley, opened a trash can, and revealed the machine inside.

He took out Flaming Moth's ID card and scanned it, and a green light came on the machine.

"Let's go, there is not much time until dusk, and our speed is going to speed up... Sakura, it's the 'first time' to carry out the mission, are you not nervous?"

Chapter 32 Human Tracks

Luluye is located in the southern hemisphere, and April is exactly the time when autumn is strong.

The wind passed through the street, blowing the finely crushed stones and rolling the ground, and also blowing the yellow fallen leaves to swirl all over the ground.

The fluffy grass rolled and danced wantonly, and the dust raised up dimmed the light, making everything in front of us even more bleak.

Mikael frowned, feeling as if he was being watched. He raised his head and stared at the drone above his head—it must be Mi...it must be Yimer who did it!

The three of them walked aimlessly through the block. Suddenly, Mikael stopped and looked at the shop on the right.

"What's wrong?" Ellie asked softly.

The situation in the store was hidden under the heavy rolling shutter door, and the Hoonkai energy detection equipment did not show any abnormality, but when she followed Mikael's line of sight to see the signboard of the convenience store, she immediately understood.

Mikael didn't talk too much nonsense, he tapped his toes lightly, and grabbed the rolling shutter under the signboard with his hand. With a little force, the veins on his arm bulged, and there was only a "click", and the rolling shutter and the signboard were connected. A large piece of wall "rusted" fell, revealing the convenience store behind it.

The air has not circulated for too long, and the moment the rolling shutter door is opened, a gust of cool wind escapes with a faint musty smell.The power supply was lost, and the store was dark, but the wind chimes hanging beside the cash register felt the call of the wind, and the sound of the ringing bells echoed endlessly for a while.

"Ai Li, go to the back and check on the second floor to see if there are any humans, Sakura, scan the shelves."

Ellie happily took the order and left, Sakura was a little dazed, as if she didn't quite understand the specific meaning of "sweep the shelves".But how clever is she?Instantly understood what Mikael meant.

Mikael himself was not idle, he turned on the flashlight on the multi-functional watch, and also scanned the shelves.

After a while, Ellie came down from upstairs and said, "No human beings were found."

Sakura fumbled and swept the last row of shelves, "The food is almost taken away, and what is left are some daily necessities. There are rotten fruits on the shelves, and all the ice cream in the freezer has melted, but the freezer is open. Someone should take it." But... also, all the batteries, big and small, were taken away."

Ellie is not slow, she sighed immediately: "There are really people staying in the block... Calculate the time, it's almost a month, it's unimaginable that ordinary human beings can survive a month without electricity and internet, There is still a lack of food... But how did they collect supplies, and Yimer's drone didn't find any traces of people?"

"It's very simple, it's day and night." Mikael said: "But it's even more weird. They would rather hide in the streets and live such a life, collecting supplies at night, and even the danger of encountering the Houkai Beast... What is it for?"

"Generally speaking, what makes human beings willing to take a certain risk is mostly because if they don't do so, they will encounter greater risks." Sakura said quietly.

Mikael was taken aback for a moment, then nodded immediately: "It makes sense."

"Buzz...buzz..." The noise from the walkie-talkie was like a fly staring at the dead body, which made Aldemir feel inexplicably annoyed and ironic. He wanted to smash it against the wall, so that It was a little more sober, but after thinking about it, there were only 8 walkie-talkies in the entire tower, which was really reluctant.

He opened the back cover, replaced a battery, and clapped hard again, the "buzzing" sound finally disappeared.

"Boss, boss! I just saw someone enter the block." Aldemir held a telescope in one hand to observe the street not far away, and said with the walkie-talkie in the other.

"Zizi..." After a brief electric sound, a deep male voice, as if suppressing great pain, came from the intercom: "An official person?"

"It seems so. They wear official multi-function watches on their wrists, and they follow drones in the sky. It's just that they are a little younger, and there is a little girl, and there will be minors in the official organization? But the little girl's chest holding a knife..."

"Hiss... what are they doing?" The man known as the boss gasped and continued to ask.

"Looks like you're looking for something? I'll go, boss, you're not here to look for us, are you?"

"Should... hiss... no, we only have dozens of people left. What they need is 3000 people as a unit. As long as we hide well enough, they have no reason to spend time and money to find them." We... hiss! You continue to monitor Baochi and see what they are trying to do?"

"I... I, I, I, I!"

"What's the matter, Aldemere?"

"That boy tore off the shutter and half of the wall! This is a humanoid monster!"

"Rolling shutter? What store did they enter?"

Aldemir raised his binoculars and stared for a while, "It seems to be a convenience store? Yes, it was one of the first few convenience stores we scanned. In order to cover up the traces, we even pulled down the shutter door!"

"Oops!"

Aldemir heard the sound of something landing on the other end of the walkie-talkie.

"Yimer, raise the height of the drone and confirm again whether there are humans in the block."

Walking out of the convenience store, the feeling of being watched intensified.

Mikael squinted his eyes and looked at the tall buildings around him. Suddenly, a flash of light flashed into his eyes, which was fleeting.

He was stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic: In the abandoned blocks, polished metal and abandoned mirrors would all produce reflections.

But as the first Herrscher who can analyze everything, Mikael can say with certainty——The source of the reflected light just now was a convex lens!

Someone is watching them with binoculars!

"Yimer! The building 300 meters in front of me seems to have found human traces!"

"understand!"

The motor of the drone suddenly exerted force, and it flew above the position reported by Mikael in an instant.

"Squad leader, do you want to investigate layer by layer? Or monitor at high altitude?"

"Paulsch high-altitude surveillance, detection and arrest, leave it to us!"

"Understood... Squad leader, people have appeared on the top floor!" Yimer was excited for a moment, and touched the joystick by mistake, and the drone immediately rolled to one side. When he managed to control the plane, he saw a man wearing a red T-shirt The figure in T-shirt climbed up the crane on the roof like an ape, and galloped on the hollowed-out boom.

Obviously he was just a bystander, but Yimer had his heart in his throat. Although the boom was long and thick, it was tens of meters high in the air!

With every step, the boom will tremble accordingly. As long as one step is missed, it will be a disaster, but that figure has no intention of slowing down at all, and even ran at the speed of a [-]-meter sprint.

The boom is connected to the two buildings, but it is not connected perfectly. The end of the boom is more than two meters away from the building, but Aldemir jumped up suddenly at the end of the sprint, successfully jumped over the gap, and entered another building. one building.

"Squad leader, the other party has rushed to another building!"

"So fast!"

Mikael couldn't help clicking his tongue, he quickly gave up his plan to enter the building, and turned to the side road instead.

"Yimer, continue to follow the other party and provide me with directions."

"Wait, Mikael!" Himiko suddenly connected to the communication, "It's getting dark!"

The silhouette of the setting sun has long since fallen into the horizon.

But now, the last ray of light and shadow has also dissipated in the world.

"Let's retreat first. Yimer will continue to track with the thermal imaging on the drone, and he should be able to find the other party's hiding place."

Mikael exhaled, feeling a little unwilling.

He looked back at Ellie and Sakura, they still had plenty of energy.

"Is it to execute the order? Or to find the hiding place of human beings regardless of everything?"

Mikael is hesitating.

Just at this time, a gust of cold wind blew past, and more and more footsteps and roars rang in my ears.

"Has the Honkai Beast started to move...Damn it!"

"retreat!"

This kind of feeling that I can't use my energy, and I am always cautious for fear of exposing my ability is really uncomfortable!

Chapter 33 Yaksha

"Close to me and return the same way."

The night is always the enemy of human beings, because no one knows what is waiting to go behind the dark unknown.

So even though he knew that both Airi and Sakura had the ability to be independent, Mikael kept reminding them to get closer to him.

"Gululu..." A low growl suddenly came from the alley on the right. Mikael glanced out of the corner of his eye, and the overflowing lavender Houkai could outline its shape. The Houkai energy detector found that it was just a "little mosquito".

Sakura instinctively leaned over to hold the knife, but was stopped by Mikael before sheathed the knife.

"No need."

There is no need to waste time and energy on the "Little Mosquito", not to mention, how do you know if the movement made by this knife will attract more Houkai Beasts?

The deserted street scene in front of you gives people an illusion, as if you are in a no-man's land that can be destroyed wantonly, but if you forget the neon lights in the sky to the north, you will be shocked, and you should be careful when you are still in the urban area.

"The detection range of the Houkai energy detector is only about half a block. Mikael, be careful. Imer's drone is still searching for human traces, and cannot provide you with reconnaissance for the time being." Himiko also reminded in the communication .

Mikael heard it, somewhat disapproving.Judging from the magnitude of Honkai's response, there are probably one or two ten-meter-level big guys in the block, but the so-called big guys are for ordinary fighters.In front of Mikael, Airi, and Sakura, it's somewhat unsatisfactory.

And the status quo of the abandoned blocks seems to confirm this point - if there is not a particularly powerful Houkai beast as the leader, these Houkai beasts should not abide by the principle of day and night.But this Honkai beast shouldn't be particularly powerful, otherwise it wouldn't be so afraid to take action during the day.

But if you don't take it seriously, you don't take it seriously, Mikael has not been artificially reduced to defenseless.His eyes scanned the screen of the Houkai energy detector from time to time, and the changes in the concentration of the Houkai energy in half a block were refreshed on it like a weather forecast.

Behind him, Sakura and Ellie were on both sides, walking sideways, and the whole team formed a triangle back to back.

"Boom-boom-boom..." A familiar vibration came from the front left, and Mikael quickly grabbed the two girls, and the three of them pressed against the wall.

Then, from the underground garage next to it, a tank-level Honkai beast with a height of more than three meters slowly crawled out.

The three of them held their breath, and only after the car had gone far away did they move again.

Yimer's light voice came from the communication:

"Squad leader, I found the hiding place of those people, and now the drone is moving towards you again... Huh? Captain, did you see that white line on the screen just now?"

Himiko was stunned for a moment, then his face turned pale, and he growled, "Mikael!"

Mikael realized something was wrong when he heard the "white line". His mind seemed to jump to the sky in an instant, overlooking the three blocks.

"Yimer flew north all the way before. We were originally on the north-south avenue. We turned twice, and now we should be on the east-west avenue..."

"Ready to fight!"

Thinking of this, he pulled Airi and Sakura behind him, stood facing northeast, and lowered his center of gravity slightly...

"Beep beep beep beep beep beep!"

The Houkai energy detector suddenly remembered that it was an alarm caused by an excessive increase in the concentration of the Houkai energy within the detection range.

Mikael instinctively wanted to look down at the screen, and when he overcame this impulse and turned his gaze back to the darkness in front of him, there were still afterimages of the light in his eyes.

"That's too late!"

This thought flashed through his mind, and he only had time to push away Sakura and Ellie beside him, and a huge black shadow appeared in front of him.

"The speed is very fast, but the reaction of the Houkai energy is not strong, and the attack power will not be too high. Build a matrix energy shield, turn your lower limbs into pulleys, and use a sliding shovel to dodge it! Well, Yimer hasn't rushed over yet, recording Less than this paragraph!"

In an instant, he judged the situation clearly and made a response plan.

Things developed as he expected, and the blue matrix barrier was quickly constructed half a meter in front of him, separating him from the galloping Honkai Beast.

But just when he was about to make the next slide...

The biting cold air had pervaded at some point, and Mikael wanted to move along with his train of thought, but his body didn't respond at all.

"Frozen... No, wait! It's not me that's frozen, it's!"

After all, he had fought against the Second Herrscher before, and Mikael smelled a very familiar feeling in the cold air, which came from fluctuations in space—it was not him who was frozen, but space!

The space freeze brought about the embrittlement of the entire space, and the matrix barrier that Mikhail predicted could barely catch the next railgun shot shattered in the first place.

"boom!"

A total of five buildings collapsed like dominoes, and the toppled buildings crashed into the rest of the buildings, triggering a larger collapse.

"Mikael, what happened! Mikael!"

"Squad leader!"

There were miscellaneous shouts in the communication.

"laugh!"

At the last moment, Mikael twisted his body and clamped the sharp claws of the Houkai Beast with his armpit, but its powerful force pushed him to fly tens of meters away.

Only then did he suddenly realize that his judgment might be wrong—this is not an ordinary Honkai Beast!

The technique of freezing space, if he guessed correctly...

Is Yasha?Impossible, how could there be an emperor-level Honkai beast here! ?

Seeing that the boy in front of him was not dead, Honkai Beast raised its other paw and smashed it down without hesitation.

It repeated the trick to try to freeze space again, but Mikael would never fall twice in one pit.

A golden gem emerged from the chest, and the space was shaken, and Houkai Beast's efforts to freeze the space were instantly futile.
