The corridor of the city hall was filled with smoke that lingered for a long time.
About ten minutes ago, this place in the rear was suddenly attacked by unidentified militants. Although the number of militants was small, they were well-equipped and well-trained.
Since most of the Alliance Army's forces were pushed to the front line, the security company stationed in the city hall was not even full. Therefore, they were defeated by this group of militants at the beginning of the exchange of fire.
"Fu * k! These people are definitely not from the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade! "While changing the clip in his hand, the guard hiding behind the bunker shouted.
"Isn't this bullsh * t?! If it's the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade, there's no way we can fight! "
On the other side, passing through the smoke-filled square, Wang Peng looked at the flashing city hall with an electromagnetic assault rifle in his hand. He frowned and muttered to himself.
"Infighting?"
Without stopping at the door, he stepped over the fence that had been blown up, cautiously raised the rifle in his hand, and walked into the corridor.
Sporadic gunshots came from the corridor not far away. Based on his experience, Wang Peng first shot down the two guards furthest from him, then knocked down the person closest to him with the butt of the rifle. He then aimed the muzzle at the last person.
"Don't, don't shoot! I, I surrender … "
Looking at the guy who hurriedly put down his weapon, Wang Peng didn't talk nonsense. He pressed the muzzle against his head and asked.
"Where is Lu Zhou?"
"Lu, Lu Zhou?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I have two prisoners now, and I only plan to keep one."
"Bro, I really don't know!"
Wang Peng frowned when he saw that the guard was so scared that he almost peed his pants.
Such a spineless person didn't seem to be the type who would bite on a secret and refuse to let it go …
At this time, the guard who had been knocked to the ground by him with the butt of the rifle had woken up. Seeing Wang Peng's back to him, his eyes flickered slightly, and his hand quietly reached for the pistol tied to his leg.
However, before he could pull the pistol out of the holster, an electric arc flashed in his field of vision, and then his consciousness fell into endless darkness.
"Now there's only one left. I advise you not to do meaningless things like him." Wang Peng looked away from the guard who had turned into a corpse. He looked at another captive who had shrunk to the wall and pointed his gun at the corridor on the side. "Take me to your mayor."
"Okay, okay …" Nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, the guard climbed up from the ground tremblingly, walked in front with his head in his hands, and stammered, "Please, please come with me."
Looking at the captive crawling up from the ground, Wang Peng pondered for a moment and suddenly said.
"Oh right."
"Do you have any other orders?"
"Who are those people?"
Following the direction of Wang Peng's gun, the guard who was walking in front looked at the militants wearing light armor lying on the ground with his hands over his head, and a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes.
"They … aren't they with you?"
You're with me?
Wang Peng frowned and began to gradually realize that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong for a while.
However, now was obviously not the time to care about these things.
Academician Lu was still in those people's hands.
Even a rabbit would jump over a wall when it was cornered. No one could guarantee that those who realized that they had failed and could not be saved would not do something dangerous to him …
…
On the other side of the city hall.
Under the escort of the most elite soldiers in the guard company, Mayor Xiao and Gao Ruiming had been transferred from the mayor's office to the underground garage of the city hall.
There was a secret evacuation point here, designed to deal with special natural disasters.
Through the pipeline of the secret evacuation point, they could directly reach the safe house on the edge of the industrial area, which happened to be behind the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade. If they really failed in the end, the militia organization of Tiangong City could not stop the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade. At that time, they could also disguise themselves as fleeing civilians and escape from Tiangong City with the evacuating crowd.
"Sh * t, it's been so long, what are those people waiting for?"
Mayor Xiao stomped his feet anxiously. He looked around, then turned his gaze to Gao Ruiming, who was standing next to him and holding a holographic computer in his hand. He lowered his voice and asked, "How long until the reinforcements arrive! Tell them if they don't hurry up, they will have to collect our corpses! "
"… The communication channel has been busy, I can't get in touch!" Gao Ruiming's face was full of anxiety. He cursed and slammed his right fist on the wall next to him. "Damn it! Someone destroyed the signal base station in this area. "
Mayor Xiao was shocked. "What about the backup?!"
"Let me try —"
Before Gao Ruiming could finish his sentence, the lights above his head went out without warning, and so did the personal terminal in Gao Ruiming's hand. Almost everything that was lit up.
In an instant, the entire underground garage was plunged into darkness.
"It's an EMP …"
The guard captain standing in front of Mayor Xiao had a solemn expression on his face as he poked the night vision goggles on his helmet. He took off the lighting rod from his tactical vest, tore off the fuse, and threw it forward. "The electronic equipment here is paralyzed. Prepare to meet the enemy."
After hearing the captain's instructions, several other guards also took out lighting rods one after another.
As the torch-like lighting rods were thrown out, the darkness in the underground garage was gradually dispelled by the orange-red light. However, that quiet and oppressive feeling still pressed down on Xiao Hong's heart, making him almost unable to breathe.
Obviously, he was not the only one who thought so.
Gao Ruiming, who put away the holographic computer, pulled him and said eagerly, "We can't wait any longer.
We have to leave here immediately … You can hear that there are no more gunshots. There shouldn't be many guards left. Those Pan-Asian Cooperation special forces will find this place sooner or later! "
Xiao Hong nodded stiffly, swallowed his saliva, and said.
"You're right."
However, at this moment, a gunshot suddenly came from the darkness not far away.
Everyone's heart tightened subconsciously, but until the sound of something falling to the ground, they did not see who was taken away by the gunshot.
Gunshots rang out one after another, piercing the fragile nerves of everyone, including Xiao Hong, Gao Ruiming, and the guards.
It was as if a devil was lurking on the edge of the darkness, dragging everyone who accidentally stepped into the abyss of hell.
Finally, the gunshots stopped.
In the entire underground garage, it was so quiet that only the sound of the fuel rods could be heard.
Xiao Hong, who was hiding behind the bunker, was about to send someone over to see what was going on. However, at this moment, a dull and clear whisper and approaching footsteps floated over from the darkness where the fuel rods could not illuminate.
"Surrender."
Surrender … Surrender …
A trace of hesitation flashed in Gao Ruiming's eyes. A trace of struggle flashed in the eyes of the guard captain.
Xiao Hong, on the other hand, was occupied by both. His pupils were constantly changing with a complex expression.
However, it didn't take long for all the complexity to be replaced by irrational madness.
He used the last bit of strength in his body to roar at the boundless darkness.
"You want me to surrender …
"In your f * cking dreams!
"I would rather die than be free!"
