Latest website: In the case of "Original City", if colluding with "anti-intellectual religion" is an internal struggle for power and gains, and there is room for compromise, then if it is linked with the "Salvation Army", it is a contradiction between the enemy and ourselves, and the nature is even more serious.
While raising his eyebrows, Jiang Baimian cast his gaze on Focas on the armored command vehicle. He saw this slightly old-fashioned "Lion" general with a serious expression and solemn expression, as if facing a very difficult and troublesome one. It is also a very important question.
At this time, Gnawa asked inexplicably:
"Why didn't they choose to use the walkie-talkie to report, instead of speaking in person?"
He wants to perfect his own human behavior analysis and simulation mechanism.
Jiang Baimian laughed:
"The point is not to speak in person, but to speak in front of everyone.
"Otherwise, after the big figures in the'First City' Senate compromised with each other, they are likely to become victims. The more people who know about this now, the safer they will be in the future."
"So..." Gnawa recorded this kind of situation.
Shang Jian Yao clapped his hands and said with a smile:
"What a great show."
After a moment of silence, Focas used the PA system on the armored command vehicle to give orders to Dukas and Cassirer:
"Take all the members of the'anti-intellectual religion,' Varro's cronies, and the people of the'Salvation Army' back, and interrogate them separately."
"Yes, General!" Dukas and Cassirer returned the Israeli military salute, obviously relieved.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Baimian thought to himself:
"The real purpose of'Anti-intellectualism' is to intensify the internal contradictions of the'First City', tear up their upper strata, and let chaos come naturally?"
In other words, this whole plan does not have to deal with anyone in particular, there are no dangerous traps, just to open some "lids".
And the best person to lift the "lid" is undoubtedly General Focas, who belongs to the centrist, has high prestige, masters part of the city defense army, and possesses strong strength.
Shang Jian Yao heard this and sighed:
"We have become instrumentalists."
In this case, the "old-tone group" hardly played a role. Regardless of whether they saw through the "anti-intellectual education" and other purposes, it was difficult to change the final result and could only become a tool for "errands."
While sighing, Shang Jian Yao did not see frustration or disappointment on his face, instead he was quite excited, with a feeling of finding an opponent.
Jiang Baimian nodded gently and said:
"True'priest', or the anti-intellectual elder in the'prime city','Shepherd' Bouyong, is indeed quite powerful. You can't underestimate it."
Having said that, she laughed at herself:
"Anyway, we made at least 50 ore from them."
Gnawa and Shang Jianyao had time to respond in the future. Dukas had already walked over and said in a deep voice:
"Go and recognize people."
"Good!" Shang Jianyao was suddenly excited.
When following the two majors into the manor, Jiang Baimian asked in a low voice:
"What are you doing so excited?"
Shang Jianyao answered without concealment:
"Wait to see the people of the'Salvation Army'."
Jiang Baimian suddenly realized and expressed his understanding.
Shang Jianyao's slogan "Save All Mankind" was changed from the purpose of "Salvation Army" "For All Mankind".
It is a pity that Shang Jian Yao failed to fulfill his wish. The members of the "Salvation Army" and the cronies of the elder Varro have been taken away separately, and they are not locked up with the "anti-intellectual" people.
The "old tune group" only saw Zhao Yixue, the second son of the Zhao family, and Meng Gang, who was suspected of being a false "priest".
Their eyes are covered with black cloth, their mouths are stuffed with rags, and their hands are tied behind their backs.
The first two are crude prevention of "hypnosis" ability, and the latter is the restriction of two people's movement.
Shang Jian Yao scanned it again and said with lack of interest:
"It's the goal."
Zhao Yixue is a little thinner than his brother, his face is full of collagen, and his nose is slightly raised.
Meng Gang looked haggard.
"Take it back." Dukas waved his hand.
Several soldiers immediately took Zhao Yixue and Meng Gang out of the manor.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Baimian let out a "uh":
"There should be nothing wrong with us next, right?"
"It depends on the agreement between you and your employer." Dukas responded coldly, "We don't have it here."
He turned and said:
"You have to save time, exercise muscles, and practice marksmanship. This is the fundamental guarantee for our survival on the dust."
Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao, and Genawah were all noncommittal.
Dukas then looked at Jiang Baimian:
"Didn't you say you want to compare your wrist with me?"
Jiang Baimian smiled:
"First speak well, you can't cheat."
"Good." Dukas agreed very readily.
With a playful mentality, Cassirer became a referee with Shang Jianyao.
...
In less than a minute, Dukas walked out of the manor in a daze, muttering to himself:
"Impossible, this is impossible...
"How could I lose three times in a row in ten seconds...
"It must be because I haven't exercised enough, my muscles are not too strong..."
Cassirer, who followed him, looked at Jiang Baimian curiously:
"Your power is beyond my imagination."
And there are no exaggerated muscles.
Am I cheating? Jiang Baimian fell into deep thought, and then replied:
"There may be a little distortion, haha, just kidding."
Cassirer shook his right hand, then smiled:
"Your appearance makes me sure that you are not inferior."
In a broad sense, I am really inferior to gaining non-human abilities through genetic modification, but it doesn't show up in appearance... Jiang Baimian muttered a few words silently.
Shang Jian Yao explained to her:
"Actually, it's an extraordinary talent."
"Yes, it's not hard work." Jiang Baimian opened his eyes wide and told the truth.
She immediately smiled:
"I think Major Dukas has been hit a bit, and it may affect his mental state afterwards. Could you please turn around and help me say a few words to him, that is, people are different from each other, and there are limits. In many cases, exercise is not Method to make up.
"If he really wants to beat me, he can only say ‘I’m not a human being’."
Cassirer looked at the walking dead Dukas in front of him, and laughed in a low voice:
"These two sentences may irritate him even more."
When they left the manor, they just saw the city defense army evacuated in batches, and then Jiang Baimian got the consent of General Focas and left.
The next things are not something that the "old tune group" can mix. They only hope that chaos will bring opportunities.
…………
The army-green jeep drove along the rammed earth road in the outskirts to the south entrance of the city.
While driving the car, Jiang Baimian habitually looked at the situation on both sides.
Suddenly, a flash of fire flashed in her eyes.
That was the scene when she was familiar with the launching of grenades, rockets, and artillery shells.
Enemy attack!
Without even thinking about it, Jiang Baimian turned the steering wheel and stepped on the accelerator.
In the simulated supercharged sound, Jeep threw it out and turned to the other side of the road.
Boom!
At the rear of the vehicle, an explosion came as scheduled, setting off a large amount of dust.
In the dust, the fire is bright, like a burning sphere.
The Jeep moved forward frantically, trying to get out of this area, but the ground it had crushed suddenly expanded.
Boom! Boom!
One after another landmine exploded, and the Jeep was directly lifted off, making it crash to the ground, rolling a few times.
At this moment, Jiang Baimian had only a few similar thoughts in his mind:
"Is this reasonable?
"This is unreasonable!"
This road can also be regarded as a car coming and going. How can the enemy mine landmines for the vehicles of himself and others so accurately?
The jeep's tumbling stopped, Jiang Baimian, who was in the inverted state, made a decisive action, pressed the safety belt, opened the door, and suddenly jumped out.
Shang Jian Yao also made a similar move and rolled to the side of the road.
At this moment, he saw a pair of brightly polished riding boots.
Up on the riding boots was a thin, tall man whose eyes were like dark whirlpools, as if they could Shang Jian Yao's soul.
Shang Jian Yao was at a loss and became stunned, and then his thoughts jumped and his personality changed.
He immediately shouted:
"Old Ge!"
Gnawa leaped over, showing the state of Mount Tai's pressing on the top.
The thin and tall man saw that Shang saw Yao's short-term "hypnosis" and turned around quickly, ready to escape.
At this moment, a feeling of aggrieved anger suddenly appeared in his heart, and he was unwilling to give up, so he gave up.
So, he stayed where he was, turned back to his body, and continued to "hypnotize" Shang Jian Yao.
Gnawa threw on him and raised a big iron fist.
boom!
The man was knocked out, but the pictures in front of Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao shattered instantly, like glass falling to the ground.
Jiang Baimian shuddered, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he was still in the jeep and driving. Shang Jian Yao was sitting next to him, no different from the beginning.
The Genawah in the back of them suddenly shouted in a hurry:
"Brake fast!"
Jiang Baimian realized that he had driven the Jeep out of the road and was rushing towards the rippling Taiwei River.
The squeaking sound dragged on for a long time, and the Jeep finally stopped.
"What happened just now?" Gnawa asked puzzledly.
Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao and said to himself:
"A real ‘priest’ attack?"
Their previous experience is very similar to Xu Liyan's experience in the Wild Grass City Hunters' Guild.
They are all caught in an illusion of multiple people "participating".
The Gnawa in the illusion comes from the cognition of Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian, and does not really exist.
Shang Jian Yao replied in a rare and serious manner:
"The true ‘priest’ used this method to test the ability of Zen Master Jingnian. He should now know that I have a ‘hypnotic person’, and the price can reduce the effect of ‘hypnosis’ to a certain extent.
"He also knows that we have an old style ~ EbookFREE.me~ has a weapon against most awakened people." Jiang Baimian exhaled and sensed for a few seconds, "There are multiple electrical signals around, and I can't confirm which one. It's a true'priest', or it's not a single one. After all, the scope of this ability is unknown."
She immediately turned her body to the side and told Genawah what had happened just now, and finally said:
"When you find that we are in a state of sluggishness, daze, etc., you can wake up or stun us, you can use any method.
Gnawa nodded solemnly:
"it is good."
Jiang Baimian looked around again and slowly backed the Jeep back to the main road.
She sighed as she drove:
"Hey, I don't know if the true'priest' will give up, or plan an attack plan targeting our characteristics...
"Let's go and join Xiaobai and Xiaohong now."
