Fang Zhao knew that his constitution had been strengthening, just not as exaggerated as Curly Hair's. He didn't know exactly how much it had strengthened.
However, it was clear that his constitution had far exceeded that of an ordinary person.
Fang Zhao had guessed that these changes might have been due to Curly Hair's influence. Everything had changed since the night of his resurrection. In order to hide these changes, he had acted like an ordinary person apart from his hearing.
But now, the changes in his body could no longer be concealed because of the sniping incident.
Planet Yin's reaction was indeed quick. Yuan Zheng hadn't brought anyone with him when he left the venue, but his movements had been closely monitored. The relevant personnel on Planet Yin had taken action the moment the signal had been blocked.
The two snipers had been killed in less than five minutes after Fang Zhao had been shot. Yuan Zheng had been brought away quickly, and Fang Zhao had been sent for medical treatment.
However, the medical personnel discovered that Fang Zhao's wounds were healing rapidly. There were no signs of infection, and his internal organs weren't damaged. If it weren't for the bloodstains on his clothes, he would look much healthier than Yuan Zheng.
The performance continued in the venue. The performers and audience didn't notice what was happening outside. Even if they received news, they wouldn't reveal it. The venue was as calm as ever.
In a small conference room, two Planet Yin higher-ups were in the middle of a conversation.
"After hiding for so long, the people from T Organization have finally made their move. Let's use this opportunity to clean up the interior! "
"We discovered a total of four sniping incidents involving three core researchers and a major with outstanding military service. Fortunately, we were prepared and the four assassination attempts didn't succeed. However … according to the latest information, the other party actually had five targets this time. "
"Huh? Who's the fifth? "
"We're still investigating."
"Hurry!"
"Yes!"
"Also, are Fang Zhao's medical results out?"
"They're out. What's strange is that apart from his shocking regenerative ability, there doesn't seem to be any other abnormalities."
"His regenerative ability is already the biggest abnormality! Most people would either die or be crippled if they were hit by that kind of bullet. Given Fang Zhao's position, anyone else would definitely die! He actually blocked a bullet that even light armor couldn't defend against? Do you believe that? "
"Indeed. Logically speaking, given his situation, it's impossible to let him go so easily in the short term."
Another higher-up raised an eyebrow. "From what you're saying, it seems like we can't do anything to him? We have to let him go? Who interfered? "
"The head of the Inter-planetary Fund vouched for him."
"That's not going to be easy. Since we can't make him stay, let's go talk to him. "
Besides a squad of soldiers standing guard outside Fang Zhao's ward, Nanfeng was also guarding the door. He had only left for a short while when he heard that something had happened to Fang Zhao. He had been so scared that his legs had turned to jelly.
Nanfeng didn't know why the people of Planet Yin had isolated Fang Zhao and didn't allow him to visit. He could only speak through the communications device. Regardless, Nanfeng was determined to guard this place. Since he couldn't get in touch with Yan Biao, Nanfeng sent them a message and told them to come back as soon as possible.
Nanfeng was in the middle of a call with Fang Zhao when the two senior executives arrived. Because there were people watching, they didn't dare say too much. They only asked if Fang Zhao's injuries were serious.
"Boss, don't lie to me! You can't fool me! After losing so much blood and dying your clothes red, you must be very weak … Although your voice sounds full of energy, I know you are just putting on an act! "Nanfeng was thinking about how to get Fang Zhao something to eat to replenish his blood. As a self-proclaimed all-rounded assistant, Nanfeng felt that he had failed in his duties this time and had let down his high salary. He had to make up for it! He had to take good care of his boss when he was weak!
The two senior executives thought to themselves when they heard Nanfeng's words. Weak? If he was sent any later, his wounds would have scabbed over! If they hadn't forced Fang Zhao to stay, he would have long since disappeared!
In the ward, Fang Zhao fell silent as he listened to Nanfeng's voice. This assistant was very good, but he was too imaginative.
Fang Zhao ended the call and looked over when he saw the two senior officers enter.
The visitor's expression softened as he pondered how to get more information from Fang Zhao. Before he could open his mouth, an urgent call came in.
"We know the fifth target," the person who picked up the call said.
"Who?" the other person asked.
The former looked at Fang Zhao.
Fang Zhao: "…"
He suddenly had an ominous premonition.
— —
A certain large warehouse on Planet Yin Base.
Planet Yin's warehouses were like fortresses. Apart from being protected from storms, they also prevented accidental damage during military exercises or testing of new products. There was a field practice area not far from this warehouse. In the past, there had been an incident of a newbie accidentally blowing up a warehouse during practice.
Yan Biao and Zuo Yu followed the inspection team when they walked their dogs. Because they were ostracized by the other dogs, Yan Biao and Zuo Yu only brought Curly Hair to the back of the group. Fortunately, the inspection team took good care of them and didn't treat them coldly.
Curly Hair was too ostracized by the other dogs. Yan Biao and Zuo Yu could only follow the team from a distance. Furthermore, there were some places they couldn't go. When the inspection team went to patrol the warehouse, they would wait outside.
Today was the same. When they went to patrol the warehouse, the inspection team would enter the warehouse to carry out their mission. They would wait outside the warehouse and admire Planet Yin's fortress-like warehouse at the same time. However, at this moment, the gate that had been open during the day suddenly closed! It completely separated Yan Biao and Zuo Yu from the inspection team!
"Quick, hide! There's a mecha running out from the warehouse … "
This was the important information the inspection team had left behind for Yan Biao and Zuo Yu. Afterwards, the signal was cut off. All that was left was static.
They couldn't get in touch with the inspection team, the warehouse guards, or the people at the nearby sentry posts. At the same time, many of the gates in this warehouse had malfunctioned. There was only one way out. At this moment, footsteps could be heard coming from the main door.
Heavy, mechanical footsteps.
"An assault mecha! Why would an assault mecha appear in a place like this warehouse!! "
Yan Biao and Zuo Yu felt their scalps go numb with just a quick glance.
What had they done wrong to be chased by such a monster?!
"I heard that a malfunctioning mecha was transferred over from the warehouse this morning. It will be sent for maintenance." Zuo Yu quickly recalled the information in his head.
"That thing's firepower is too strong. The guns in our hands can't even graze the opponent's skin. We won't even be able to run!" Yan Biao felt a wave of despair. He had only planned on resigning after walking the dogs one last time. Who knew they would encounter something like this!
Zuo Yu remembered that the anti-smuggling team had mentioned that the doors of the empty warehouses were automatically closed and could be manually operated.
"Let's go! Let's go over there first and find a large warehouse to hide in! Planet Yin's team's reaction is very fast. Since the inspection team already knows that something has happened here, they will definitely send people over. We just need to buy some time and we will be safe! "
"That's the only way!"
Yan Biao called for Curly Hair and ran with Zuo Yu towards a larger warehouse.
Curly Hair licked his nose and looked outside. He remembered Fang Zhao's warning and followed Yan Biao and Zuo Yu inside.
Yan Biao and Zuo Yu didn't notice Curly Hair's reaction as they were in a hurry to escape. The warehouse they had chosen was rectangular and had two heavy doors separating it from the outside.
Zuo Yu closed the outer door and didn't stop. He immediately ran inside.
As they ran, Zuo Yu said, "That mecha outside should have been sent to the repair station for maintenance. Normally, such mechas are under strict control and can't be moved around easily. The one in the warehouse is a malfunctioning one. Perhaps its armor-piercing laser cannon is broken?"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Boom!!
A large hole was easily blasted through the outer door.
Curly Hair faced the mecha that was blasting through the door and barked, "Woof woof woof!!"
"Woof my ass!" Yan Biao crouched down and picked up the dog.
Zuo Yu quickly closed the thick door of the inner warehouse to block the shots from the mecha's blaster.
After the inner warehouse door was closed, Zuo Yu and Yan Biao moved further in. There really wasn't a way out this time.
"What the f * ck did you do to actually attract an assault mecha!" Zuo Yu roared.
"I didn't f * cking do anything! Think about what you did! "Yan Biao roared back.
"I can't think of anything!!"
"Then why did the mecha only block us?"
After a momentary silence, Yan Biao and Zuo Yu lowered their heads and looked at Curly Hair.
Curly Hair was listening to his surroundings when he sensed their gazes. His clear and innocent dog eyes were filled with doubt.
"Who would go to such great lengths to kill Curly Hair?" Zuo Yu was puzzled.
"Curly Hair's test results are too outstanding. He's even more useful than the security system. If he can make the people at Planet Yin's spaceport spend so much effort on him, he will definitely attract people with bad intentions. Security systems aren't installed everywhere, but Curly Hair can go anywhere. The person who attacked probably felt threatened. If they don't get rid of Curly Hair, many people won't feel at ease. "
"I understand that logic! But why would they use a mecha to kill a dog? "Zuo Yu couldn't understand.
"Because Curly Hair runs too fast? Is it hard to catch up? Or perhaps, this dog-killing operation was just an impromptu idea, and the preparations were rushed. "
Regardless of what the culprit was planning, there was no point in thinking about it. The current situation was that the other party wanted to kill the dog behind closed doors!
They simply had nowhere to retreat to!
They were truly isolated and without help!
It would be difficult to even leave behind a last word!
Would they be able to survive against an assault mecha with such powerful firepower? They would be blasted to smithereens the moment they appeared!
"Planet Yin's reaction is very fast. Reinforcements might have already arrived. We just need to delay for a little more time …"
Yan Biao gritted his teeth. "We can only stake it all! At least wait until reinforcements arrive! "
Curly Hair stood guard at the door and snorted anxiously. He glanced at Zuo Yu and Yan Biao before looking at the door.
"Look, Little Curly Hair still can't bear to part with us."
Yan Biao carried Curly Hair away from the door and patted Curly Hair's head.
"I know you are smart. Find a corner to hide in first. You must hide well later. When the door is breached and the crossfire starts, find a gap to escape. Got it?"
Yan Biao didn't believe that Curly Hair could evade the assault mecha's powerful firepower, nor did he believe that Curly Hair was smart enough to understand everything. He could only hope for luck. He hoped that Curly Hair's luck would be good and he would be able to find a gap to escape.
Curly Hair continued snorting, but this time, his snorts were even more urgent.
"You finally know fear?" Yan Biao sighed. "Who asked you to be so strong? To actually attract such a pursuit. "
"Curly Hair is still worth protecting, right?" Zuo Yu suddenly chuckled.
At this time, the two of them had already analyzed the current situation and understood that they couldn't escape. They could only create more opportunities for Curly Hair to survive.
While Yan Biao and Zuo Yu were planning how to deal with the situation, they didn't realize that something was missing from the collar around Curly Hair's neck. Curly Hair was already starting to move restlessly.
Outside the inner door, a small, round personal terminal lay quietly between the outer and inner door. This had been dropped when Yan Biao had carried Curly Hair and retreated hastily.
Such a small thing wouldn't attract the slightest bit of attention.
One of the assault mecha's large and heavy mechanical feet stepped on it.
Crack!
The sound of something shattering was almost inaudible against the footsteps of the mobile armor.
Curly Hair, who was staring straight at the door of the warehouse, suddenly trembled. He stood there in a daze. Every strand of fur froze, and his eyes glazed over as if he had received a huge shock.
Yan Biao thought that Curly Hair was afraid and hurriedly moved the motionless Curly Hair to a corner.
Yan Biao checked his gun, took a deep breath, and said to Zuo Yu, "Comrade Salted Fish No. 1?"
Zuo Yu smiled bitterly. "Comrade Salted Fish No. 2."
"Finally not a salted fish."
Boom!
The inner warehouse's thickened door was finally blasted open.
However, before Zuo Yu and Yan Biao could move, a silhouette shot out from the inner warehouse. It instantly swelled up, and the cold gleam of metal was dazzling.
Under the heat wave created by the armor-piercing laser, countless irregularly moving air currents surged forward with a sharp and cold feeling.
Clang clang!
Creak — — Bang!
The ear-piercing sound of metal breaking and the vibrations of armor hitting the ground made one's heart tremble.
Sparks flew everywhere, and fragments flew everywhere.
The scene was extremely violent.
On both sides of the damaged inner warehouse door that had been bombarded by the cannons, Yan and Zuo, who had courageously died, had shocked expressions on their faces, as if their worldview had collapsed. They both retracted their legs that were about to take a step forward and simultaneously lowered their presence.
In the hearts of the two salted fish team — —
Ahhhhh!!!
My boss's dog has transformed!!!
