The dark ventilation duct was full of dust, and gunshots rang out from time to time. Several holes were shot in the metal ventilation wall, and thin pillars of white light shone in. It looked like an unreal scene.
Xu Le dragged his travel bag and crawled in the ventilation duct. The design of the ventilation duct of the foundation building was very strong, and it would never give intruders any chance to escape. Although the cautious Senator Macklin was no longer the tough soldier he used to be, he was very mature when it came to security.
Warm blood flowed out from the wound, bringing with it dust, turning into a sticky substance, making people feel very uncomfortable. Xu Le breathed in the stale air and crawled quickly in the ventilation duct. He did not care about his wound and the pursuit that might be caused by the sound. In fact, he was still hiding in the three eastern districts and could not get rid of the omnipresent gunfire. In fact, he did not want to get rid of it, nor did he want to leave.
He jumped down from the ventilation duct and landed on his left leg first. A sharp pain entered his brain and almost made him fall to the ground. This was the pantry of the office area, and no one was there for the time being. Xu Le sat down by the coffee machine and lowered his head to breathe quickly. Only then did he have a chance to see where he was shot.
Earlier, he had been ambushed by the powerful armed men around Macklin in the Third East District. Then, the Special Task Force agents and more than 30 security guards from the security company rushed into the building and surrounded him. If he hadn't thrown the four rolling grenades and caused temporary chaos, he wouldn't have been able to escape from that place.
Did he leave? No, the outside of the room was full of heavily armed enemies. As soon as he showed his head, he would definitely end up in a honeycomb.
After a short breath, Xu Le felt that in addition to the wound on his left leg, there were also two painful places on his body. He looked down and saw that the trousers on his left leg had been completely torn, and a piece of shrapnel had cut directly under his knee. If it had been a little higher, his knee would have been shot, and it would have been difficult for him to walk.
He was shot twice in the chest and abdomen, and the conical bullets were deeply embedded in the interlayer of his underwear. The huge impact compressed the two bullets and made them look like round platinum nails used by girls for decoration.
Xu Le frowned and used all his strength to pull them down. He found that the place where he was shot was extremely painful. He didn't know if his ribs were broken. If it hadn't been for the thin, hard bulletproof vest from Whitewater Company, he would've already met George Carlin. Escaping from death, he didn't feel much joy. His heart was heavy.
He took a deep breath and mobilized the scorching power behind his waist, causing his body to tremble. Especially around his injured left leg, the muscle fibers were forcefully squeezing and rubbing together, increasing the pain of the wound. Blood also spurted out, but for some reason, the wound gradually turned white, and no more blood flowed out.
At this time, a very soft sound suddenly came from outside the pantry. Xu Le clenched the Cayenne in his hand and lowered his head to listen attentively. Although he couldn't confirm the number of people, he knew that it was definitely not a small number.
He slowly lowered his body. Instead of hiding behind the door, he squatted on the other side of the door.
Sure enough, there was a burst of concentrated gunfire. The high-density plastic door was instantly shot with countless holes by the gunfire outside the door, splashing wood and plastic shards everywhere. Xu Le silently squatted at the bottom of the door, avoiding the spurting bullets and risking his life to wait.
After the door was kicked open, Xu Le didn't care about the first person with a gun at all. Instead, he flashed out from behind that person, raised his gun, and fired continuously, killing the two people in front of him. In the shortest amount of time, he threw himself under a cubicle desk.
Just as he fell heavily to the ground, gunshots rang out in the office in the East Third District. A barrage of bullets rained down on his hiding spot. The bullets shattered the small decorations on top of the cubicle. The small crystal objects and dolls that the ladies liked to put in the office experienced a second brutal blow and were scattered in all directions.
The light blue hard partition material, under such intense gunfire, gradually fell apart. Fortunately, it wasn't made of tofu slag. Although it didn't play a big role, it still resisted for a while.
During this time, Xu Le silently crawled toward the window in the smoke and gunfire. From the moment he rushed into the building, he had already put life and death behind him. But at this moment, accompanied by the shrill gunfire and the cold metal music, he really smelled the smell of death.
"Motherf * cker."
At this time, he couldn't raise his head at all. The whistling sound of the bullets around him mixed together and became a horrible sound. The hard objects that kept shattering around him reminded him that the human body couldn't withstand this kind of harvest of death. His mood was extremely cold and gloomy. He didn't even notice that the bullets that were shooting around once again hit his thigh.
At this time, the floor-to-ceiling glass curtain of the three eastern districts suddenly broke. Two metal objects flew in, instantly releasing a large amount of smoke that quickly enveloped the entire floor. Then two more smoke bombs were shot in, and the smoke became thicker. Even the things that were close to him couldn't be seen clearly.
The dense gunfire that was moving in this direction suddenly became fierce and then sparse. Everyone in the office temporarily stayed in their positions and didn't move.
The Federal military provided a smoke bomb. Under the cover of the smoke, Xu Le quietly moved his position and hid behind a safe with a pale face. With the knowledge of guns he learned from Magnolia, he easily recognized what it was that allowed him to live for a few more minutes.
He knew that there was someone covering him outside the foundation building, but it was not Secretary Bai. However, the effect of the smoke bomb could only last for three minutes. The well-trained security personnel in the building obviously knew this, so they didn't rush blindly. Instead, they occupied all the corridors and coldly waited for the smoke to disperse.
Only three minutes to live? Xu Le took a few quick breaths, lowered his head and wiped the blood on his face. He gently put the Cayenne in his hand on the ground, took out the last two long pistols from the travel bag, and then slowly and steadily began to install the silencer.
The biggest reason why today's operation was in such a precarious situation was because the magnolia in the mountain had failed to successfully control the monitoring system in the golden foundation building again. Without the help of the monitoring system, Xu Le was equivalent to a blind man, and the other party could clearly find his location.
At this time, the smoke was extremely thick, and everyone became blind, blind for three minutes. But what would happen after three minutes? Xu Le lowered his head and pursed his dry lips. His eyes narrowed, and there was a strange smile on his face. He didn't want to think about what would happen after three minutes.
"Uncle said that humans are the best machines." He wiped the cold sweat from his palms, took a deep breath, and tightly held the cold long handle of the pistol. He kept muttering to himself in his heart, "Xu Le, you are a machine. You won't get hurt, you won't get tired …"
This was probably self-hypnosis when facing a desperate situation. Only in this difficult and dangerous environment would he not lose the last of his courage and confidence. However, no matter how much he hypnotized himself, he knew that his eyesight and hearing were better than the average person, but after all, he was not the omniscient and omnipotent creator, and he was not the eyes that could look down on all living beings …
The people surrounding him were all well-trained professional soldiers and professional agents of the Special Task Force. He couldn't kill them with just the smoke.
But he still had to stand up and finish this matter. So, Xu Le frowned and tried not to think about the miserable wounds on his body. He exerted strength in his waist and abdomen, preparing to stand up and continue shooting. Then, he would be shot until he died.

…
In the Capital Special District, in front of the Parliament Hill, countless people quietly watched the long stone steps on the oath platform with eyes full of concern. At this time, no one noticed that in the second last row of the viewing platform, there was a lady in a black coat. She received a phone call, and then a strange look flashed through her calm expression.
In the same inconspicuous position of the viewing platform, the heads of the Li family and the Lin family, who deliberately kept a low profile at this prominent moment, seemed to have received some kind of message at the same time. The expressions on their faces changed, and then they immediately returned to normal. They looked at the stone steps seriously.
"I solemnly swear that I will faithfully carry out the duties of the President, and use all my strength to protect, protect, and protect the Charter of the Federation …"
Vice President Byron had finished his oath. At this time, the one who put his hand on the thick charter was President-elect Pabre. His voice was very stable, and his feelings were sincere and sincere. What followed was a ten-minute speech.
…
…
"On this day, we are gathered together because we choose hope over fear, and meaningful unity over disputes and discord. “
"On this day, we have come to declare that those useless complaints and false promises have come to an end. Those mutual accusations and old dogmas that have warped our politics for a long time have come to an end."
President Pabre used a grave expression to watch the crowd in the square. "Under the threat of the Empire, under the threat of the Federation's unfairness, should we sit and wait for the judgment of the Creator, or should we do our best to do something?"
…
…
"In the history of the Federation, there has never been a lack of people who have pleaded for the people. And in the history of the Federation, in the face of the dark era and decadent oppression, there have always been people who dared to stand up and release their own roar."
…
…
"I admire this type of person. I want to tell these people that no matter where you are in the universe, as long as you respect the principles of the Federation and the spirit of the Charter, I welcome you to S1, to the capital, to the Federation government. "
…
…
Xu Le didn't hear the content of President Pabre's speech. In the smoke and ruins, he prepared to stand up, but his pupils suddenly shrank, as if he saw something inconceivable.
