Steel steam and flame

"Send someone here quickly. There are no heavy weapons. I don't want to stay here for too long!" Resa's last words were almost shouted. Milton was silent on the other side, thinking about what Resa just said.

After a pause for a few seconds, until Resa could no longer suppress the unanswered anger, Milton's calm voice rang out: "Resa, I hope you make sure you see clearly. How difficult is the development of scaly surgery? You and I both know it very well. What that kind of thing represents, you and I know clearly in our hearts. In the entire surgical development project, where is the difficulty level of squamation? You have seen the evaluation report given by the Knights. I think it must be deeply Have experience.”

"What do you want to say! Did I see it wrong? Or are you saying something to excuse yourself for your own safety?" Ressa laughed, "You know, there is no priority between us. You are not our captain. Be careful what you say. Tone. You'd better do what I just said, otherwise I will quit the mission immediately. Compared with my life, I don't want to end up like Cyprie. You were the one who ordered the shooting, right?"

Milton squeezed the communicator and made a squeaking sound. If he squeezed it a little harder, he could crush it into pieces. He suppressed his anger, knowing that now was not the time to argue about this: "I have just said it, I hope you understand what I mean!"

"I believe in your eyes, but have you ever thought about other things! The difficulty of surgical development of squamation cannot be reduced by one person. I don't believe that a second-year student in a military school can complete that kind of surgical development! Let's enter Although the third stage of surgery has not been long, don’t you have a detailed understanding of how difficult it is to move forward one step further!”

Ressa didn't answer. Milton's angry voice seemed to calm him down a little.

"What I mean is, could it be some kind of potion that can induce that state in a short time! You should know the commonly used stimulant substances. Cyprini has previously prepared potions that greatly enhanced the human body's strength for a period of time. . Could it be a similar substance? The prey is driven to a dead end by you. This is just to frighten you and then retreat, giving him time to hide again. If my guess is correct, as long as it is a potion, it will definitely There are huge side effects.”

'"You missed the best opportunity! Do you understand? The prey has really completed the development of scales. With just you and the layers of encirclement under the building, do you think you can stop his forced breakthrough? Even the bullets can't hit it. His body. But now that the prey has not done such a thing, what does it mean that you haven't thought about it clearly yet?" Milton yelled, took a breath, and after his emotions returned to normal, he continued, "For insurance, but also for What you call security, I will dispatch a batch of heavy weapons from the garrison in Meselia according to your request, but it will take time."

"How long?" Resa suddenly didn't have enough confidence. Milton's words had an effect. Thinking of the methods he saw when he surrounded the prey before, he felt that he was indeed frightened by the violent aura of the prey. .

"For the better part of an hour, the troops are stationed on the edge of the city. It will take time to get here." Milton replied, "But before that, I hope you guys will guard every exit of the building to ensure that the prey is captured before the weapons arrive." Still in that building!"

Resa let out a breath, and turned his gaze away from the building, focusing on the defense forces and the people in the church who were on guard in front of him. Although Milton's words restored his calmness, the fear from before still lingered in his body. He didn't feel at ease, probably because Milton himself didn't have the ability and strength to make him feel at ease.

"One more request. This matter must be reported to the Knights immediately. If you are afraid of being laughed at by the people above, please transfer the communication to me, and I will talk to the adults above." Resa still chose what he thought was the best. way of insurance.

"No, I will meet your request." Milton's face turned cold, "I hope you won't let me go there in person."

He immediately hung up the call, and Milton breathed a sigh of relief before vomiting all the anger in his stomach.

"Contact Captain Boyce for me." Milton sighed.

The electronic noise while waiting made him feel endless irritation. Finally, when the uncomfortable feeling began to overflow, a voice came from over there, but it was not Captain Boyce.

"Milton?" With a definite question, the person on the other side of the communicator seemed to know who was talking to him, "Captain Boyce is not here now, I will answer the communication. Of course, before you go to Messerli During this period of time, Captain Boyce has asked us to take over the captain's position for this mission. If you have anything to say, you can tell me, and Theodore can also do it, he is also one of the captains. "

Theodore, who was pouring the wine, showed a silent smile. He gently placed the wine glass in front of El and sat aside so that he could hear the conversation between the two more clearly.

"The scaly state?" After listening to Milton's unwilling narration, El's voice was deliberately filled with doubts, "Could it be a stimulating potion? If it costs a lot of money, in the dark world, some people with connections It seems that people can ask people in research institutions to prepare that kind of thing. But the side effects are extremely severe, and the effect is many times more powerful than the inhibitory tubes in our bodies."

"I also thought about it this way, but I don't know the specific duration of the drug's effect, so for the sake of safety, we chose to wait during the period when heavy weapons are called."

"A good decision." El said, showing a thoughtful look, "The power of the fire cannon cannot penetrate the Black Scale's defense, it can only cause an impact. If there are enough of you, relying on the interlaced firepower network, you can still It can cause some damage to the prey. But it is too dangerous. Only by using heavy weapons can we gain some advantage. And as you said, the prey did not immediately rely on the scaled state to chase Resa and the others and break through the encirclement below, but chose to stay. In the building. This also confirms your thoughts and speculations from the side."

"As for whether there is any other new information about the prey in the Knights, I am sure there is none. I did not expect the scaly state. After all, given the prey's situation at the time, relying on potions to gain a glimmer of life was the right choice. Instead, My approach is roughly the same."

The communication was disconnected again, and Milton snorted viciously before continuing to speak into the microphone: "Did you hear that, Resa?"

"What you should be concerned about right now is calling in those heavy weapons. You and I don't know how many potions the prey has that can be used." After Resa finished speaking, he immediately turned off the communicator. He didn't want to hear from Milton. A proud voice echoed in his ears.

"What a smart prey!" He recalled the scene when he surrounded his prey a few days ago and lost face in front of a group of new people. This time the scene repeated itself again, with the same result. Reza clenched his fists. If it weren't for the underlying fear in his heart, he felt that he should have rushed in to find the prey.

,,,,,,

Amid laughter, El took a sip of wine, and the crisp sound of the wine glass touching the table made him feel comfortable.

"El, do you really think that?" Theodore asked from the side, "This is not like you."

"This is what Captain Boyce meant." Ir said, looking at Boyce aside and nodding.

"No, no." Boyce responded politely, with a relaxed smile on his face, "I just like to hear some good news about them, that's all."
