Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 285 284. The feeling of being dragged out to drive in the middle of vacation (rd update)

In the end, Sefer was unable to reach the rope because the other party had already fled upwards when he saw the situation was not good.

But it was not a big problem. When the people present saw the main culprit escape, they belatedly rushed forward and asked to help hold down the accomplice. Sefer thought for a moment and called everyone without hesitation.

Go to the car.

When he left, he didn't forget to catch Feldrich - for some reason, she behaved more obediently and quietly than usual. Seifer picked her up from the ground, hung her around his waist and took her away without saying a word.

This is all beside the point. A group of people quickly got on the vehicle, which then started up. The huge tracks slowly turned around, and it slowly drove out of the parking area amid the busy operations of the surrounding maintenance and gate control personnel.

The reason for doing this is that alarms have also been sounded in some areas of the city... Let's put it this way, everyone is afraid of taking responsibility, so they have been paying close attention to this incident since it happened.

Now that they saw that the guy who was supposed to be the mastermind was about to retreat, they naturally did not hesitate to add insult to injury. Regardless of how effective it would be, they did move anyway.

Sitting at the main console, Seifer wiped the blood-stained dagger, but felt that he couldn't clean it clean, so he put it aside and said, "Now that things have come to this, we can only pursue it."

"Alright, tsk... Hey, Captain, look, I put in a lot of effort this time, didn't I..."

You want this at this time?

Seifer thought for a moment and said, "After we capture him, I'll give you 10% of the net profit from the bounty."

Then Tien put on a smile, and even the efficiency of getting the car moving improved a lot.

But to be honest, she obviously forgot one thing, that is... this was an emergency, and no one had placed an order yet. In fact, the expenses were full, and as for the profits... I don't know.

In the engine compartment, Lin Shenxue was busy adjusting the engine to a good level. She put on her headphones with a dull face, trying to keep the noise away from her for a while - and then she sighed.

I feel sad that I didn’t get to soak in the hot spring this time and now I’m kicked back to work.

If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have gone out to see what “hospitals in big cities look like” but stayed in the hotel instead. That private hot spring looks so cool!
However, I can only complain in my heart.

The huge vehicle got back on track as other mobile units around it hurriedly made way. Opening fire in the city was not a wise move... because it would lead to escalation of the situation.

So even the moving car in front, the one about two stories high and about to enter the main road to leave the node city, did not open fire - and neither could Cypher's side.

It is easy to harm innocent people and then be held down and beaten by the company mercenaries stationed in the city.

So you can only drive slowly in the city first, and then drive freely outside.

Well, the good news is... it's night outside now, and both sides can race on the sand without any scruples to see who will die in the end.

For Seifer, there was actually no need to chase after him, as there was no money to be made this time... But as the saying goes, people can't help but be curious at certain times.

Seifer was now very curious about what kind of person was this secretive guy who inexplicably loved to show off. And after being called by this person's name, he felt quite disgusted.

Considering the harsh environment in the desert, it's not surprising that a few crazy people appear - but being targeted is another matter.

The saying "If you don't remove the roots of the grass, it will grow again in the spring breeze" has been a truth since ancient times. Sefer plans to dry even the soil here carefully.

Just as he was thinking about which procedure to follow to destroy the strange-looking car, Feldrich suddenly walked closer to the main control cabin and even walked next to Cipher's position.

"Red Crossbow, I was indeed... killed just now, right?" "No, you were just strangled and knocked unconscious, and the man's knife didn't stab you accurately. Shengnai used his miraculous first aid to pull you back."

Cypher immediately denied it, typing three sentences in a row: "Some people have some false death experiences, but in fact, they are just illusions. Don't let yourself fall into illusions for too long, it's not good for your psychology."

Feldrich pulled down the corner of his mouth in a bad mood, always wondering if he had been too friendly recently, causing the mercenary to have an excessive sense of self-awareness.

But then he saw his shattered skin and scarred metal body, and thought of how he had just rushed forward without hesitation to block the explosion for him.

The words on the tip of her tongue were slowly suppressed. She stared with her eyes wide open, ignoring the explanation just given.

"Do you think I'm an idiot who's never been out of the city? This kind of talk might be enough to fool a mentally ill kid, but do you think I'm that easy to fool?"

Feldrich refuted with what he thought was a reasonably normal response, his expression turning grim. "I was indeed attacked, but what the attacker didn't know is that I've suffered a lot in order to maintain consciousness in various situations."

"So even though I did faint temporarily due to lack of oxygen, I woke up a few seconds after he let go - I just couldn't move my body."

No wonder she didn’t faint during the previous confinement despite such a huge emotional upheaval. This is how emotions are.

"I was originally planning to get some information about the attacker, but I didn't expect him to actually stab me... You actually think that the blood gushing from the wound that I felt, the despair caused by lack of blood and oxygen, was an illusion?"

On the other side, Tien laughed and continued driving without expressing any views or opinions.

"Hmm... maybe it was a near-death hallucination. We arrived before you actually lost too much blood, and then our talented field doctor, Miss Shengnai, brought you back from the brink of death."

Seifer continued to explain: "After all, she has titles like 'The Soul Chaser of the Underworld' and 'The Uncrowned Bian Que'..."

On the other side of him, Shengnai suddenly popped up silently: "Even if I were to be praised like this, I would feel that it was too much. I have to come out and emphasize that I am not that great, Sefer."

When did you come?!

Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Seifer could only say, "Do you want to hear the harsh truth, or do you want to hear the lie I carefully wove for you, which at least sounds quite acceptable?"

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me honestly what's going on."

Cypher shrugged. "It's a commercial secret. I can't tell you. This is the truth. And it's a special secret exclusive to me as an independent mercenary. If it's discovered, I have a responsibility and must ensure that this secret is not leaked."

"What kind of secret could be kept so secretive..." Feldrich muttered, then crossed his arms impatiently. "How about I sign a confidentiality agreement with you... No, a cooperation agreement?"

In order to explore his own secrets, he even dared to sign a cooperation contract!
Inside the slightly shaking car, Feldrich thought he didn't understand what a cooperation contract was, so he explained its scope of application.

The point is not the contract, the point is why you want to cooperate with a mercenary. Are you going to have nowhere to go soon?

"Forget it. Seeing as you're still a little hesitant, we can discuss this in detail after you kill that guy... So let's get ready to leave the city now. How do you plan to stop him?"

It would be better not to dwell on this matter for the time being. Seifer immediately commanded the vehicle to enter combat readiness, the secondary gun of the automatic fire control was put online, and then he called Vilvi on the communication.

The main gun is temporarily left to her to operate, and she will blow the opponent into the sky when she finds an opportunity!
