Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

While Lucy and Palovich were arguing on the phone, Zhuang Xuteng and four others had already arrived at the pharmaceutical factory of the Sanliu Charity Foundation. They parked the car in the visitor parking area, then sat on the roof of the car and looked at the road extending from Peicheng.

A few people are not just waiting here, they still have to divide the work and cooperate. Gogongdao is responsible for dealing with the management of the parking lot, spending some money to establish a good relationship, so that they can stay here all day without being disturbed. Zhuang Xuteng found a suitable hiding and investigation location, then hid himself in it and established an observation and early warning sentry. Nightingale and Yanque tried to access the network of the pharmaceutical factory. Their requirements were not high, as long as they could see the surveillance camera footage of the surrounding security personnel.

If this was the place where blue crystals worth more than a billion yuan were processed, its security protection would not be weaker than that of the convoy. Several people had already discussed it on the way here. The key to this operation is to never go too deep! The methods they use on the surface are no higher than secretly filming reporters. As long as they can get a convoy carrying blue crystals to enter the pharmaceutical factory, they can do business.

They arrived at the parking lot at noon and had completed the decoration at around three o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, more news came. For example, Director Pace's speech, today's group Peicheng's executive general manager's explanation, PCPD's statement of confidence in completing its mission...it's all basically useless nonsense. Some people need to speak and some people need to listen. These are all conventions used to maintain the imagination of "peace and prosperity" in Peicheng.

Zhuang Xuteng was very interested in the appearance of the executive general manager of Today Group. He felt that this move was very meaningful and showed that there was a close tacit understanding between top group companies, at least between Sanliu Charity Foundation and Today Group. "Sanliu Charity Foundation has launched a safe blue product, which clearly has the potential to replace the Blue Savage and other blue crystal products on the market, which has moved a big piece of the cake. It stands to reason that other large companies will be dissatisfied, but now we can't see it at all. If I don’t believe it if they say they didn’t discuss the distribution of benefits in advance.”

"I feel the same way, but how will they allocate it?" Ge Gongdao said: "It can't be that the Sanliu Charity Foundation takes care of all the work and then distributes the money to the other three, right?"

"I think..." Zhuang Xuteng said: "Safety Blue was originally going to be launched at the Expo. Let's believe this is true. Sanliu Charity Foundation can use Safety Blue to make a big splash. This is a sure thing. If they If the benefits are distributed in advance, then the limelight thing is likely to be distributed as well. If you look at what other companies are doing at the expo, you may be able to find clues."

"I just have nothing to do now. I'm going to check the news about the Grand Expo." Nightingale and Rock Bird connected themselves to the surveillance camera at the door and did not try to further control it, so they had a lot of free energy to focus on other things.

Everyone performed their duties, lurking and waiting quietly. At about six o'clock in the afternoon, Zhuang Xuteng reported that there was movement on the highway, and it seemed that it was most likely a convoy coming. Everyone immediately went on alert and put away anything that might be considered a threat by the armed convoy.

The armored convoy encountered four waves of attacks on the road, arrived at its destination unscathed, and filed into the pharmaceutical factory. Ge Gongdao and others took the time to take photos, and Nightingale and Rock Bird also borrowed the pharmaceutical factory's own camera to take pictures. Fortunately, they acted quickly, because after the convoy entered the factory, a lot of highly encrypted scanning phenomena were added to the information network in the entire area. Seeing that the situation was not good, the two sisters quickly disconnected and evacuated.

"Okay, you can go." Ge Gongdao packed up his things and called Nightingale and Yanque to get in the car. Zhuang Xuteng was far away and needed a little time, but at this moment, an armored vehicle drove out of the factory area and came directly to the parking lot, parked right in front of their car.

The rotating machine gun tower was aimed at the Gorgon Road, and then the car door opened, and a man wearing a light armored exoskeleton stepped out, and behind him there were three similarly equipped people providing cover with shadow guns. Upon seeing this, Ge Gongdao quickly raised his hands, showed his palms, and asked Nightingale and Yanque to do the same thing.

Zhuang Xuteng hurriedly lay down and lurked again, staring at the situation in the parking lot from a distance.

"Put the window down." The man in the exoskeleton armor gestured to Ge Gongdao. Ge Gongdao nodded, indicating that he understood, and then rolled down the car window with a slow and clear one-handed movement.

"Excuse me, what's the matter?" Ge Gongdao kept smiling while speaking.

"What are you doing here?"

"We take photos of armored convoys carrying blue crystal goods entering the factory, and then sell them to people who want them and make some money from them." Ge Gongdao said very frankly, with the expression of a commonplace person. "We are lucky enough to wait here. Hehe, I won't disturb you, right?"

"Reporter or mercenary?" The man stared at Ge Gong and continued to ask.

"Mercenary. My name is Ge Gongdao, and Taoist people call me Brother Dao." Ge Gongdao said with a smile: "You can't make much money by taking photos and selling them, but small money is money. If you don't make it, you won't make it in vain. I said , would it be inconvenient to take a photo?”

"It depends on whether you are telling the truth or not." The exo-armored skeleton man stared into Ge Gongdao's eyes and asked him: "Do you want what we transported in?"

"You mean those blue crystals and blue savages? Oh my god, I don't want them. We don't want them. They are too dangerous. Not only are they a threat to health, but they will also offend you." Ge Gongdao was very calm. There is no need to lie about this simple question. "If you're talking about something else, like your beautiful car, and all the equipment you're wearing. Wow, can you buy it? Is there any way I can get one too?"

"Just you? Forget it, you have no hope!" The man said: "You filmed scenes in the company without permission, triggering the company's security and confidentiality mechanism. Hand over the photos and similar materials, otherwise we will pursue you Responsibility."

"We just took photos, this..." Nightingale looked aggrieved and resisted this decision. But her expression was an act, not what she really thought. They have been in the mercenary industry for so many years and are already very experienced. Until they need to push and refuse like this, otherwise they will be too cooperative and will only make the other party feel that they have something to hide, so they let it go easily.

"Don't cause trouble. This is a company, a top company, not a gangster. It's not easy for them to talk to us properly." Ge Gongdao advised while taking the camera and the bag containing the film. "Check it, it's all here. The latest film has a mark on the box with the time and place written on it. You can understand it at a glance."

"Don't give it all to him, there are some that were not taken this time." Yanque said quickly from the back seat.

Ge Gongdao accompanied the smiling face and said: "That's the truth. Friend, if you see how cooperative we are, just complete your work and don't make things difficult for us. The transportation of blue crystals is not such important news. It is very important. The popularity will soon be gone, and we just want to earn two thousand and a few hundred yuan..."

"Stop talking nonsense, you take pictures here, and we go out for a trip. Have you calculated the cost?" The man took away the backpack containing the camera and film and threw it directly into the car. "That's it, is it gone?"

"No more. But you..." Ge Gongdao frowned and sighed, but the person on the other side was not moved at all. They got in the car and started it, returned to the factory area, and told Ge Gongdao to get out as soon as possible.

Ge Gongdao rolled up the car window, frowned and looked at the pharmaceutical factory, secretly talked to Nightingale in sign language, and asked her to contact Naike. Nightingale nodded and replied in sign language after making contact. Ge Gongdao asked Nightingale to tell Naike that they would drive away first and ask him to follow them and enter the highway before joining together. Naike needs to be careful and act quickly, so that no one from the company can chase him out again.

This suggestion is completely correct, but it only requires Zhuang Xuteng to move one or two kilometers in stealth. It was already dark when they rejoined on the highway. The three people guarding the car prepared steaming hot instant food for Zhuang Xuteng so that he could replenish energy and nutrition when he entered the car.

Several of them were experienced mercenaries, and they had to be cautious in everything they did, so they also kept a copy of the film. "The images obtained through the factory cameras have been sent out, which is enough for communication. But we discovered a strange thing." Nightingale and Yanque said: "Lucy doesn't seem interested in these photos. Isn't the task supposed to be completed this way? ?”

"Don't worry blindly. No matter how you look at it, this mission can only be completed in this way." Ge Gongdao shook his head and comforted the two of them: "Looking at the defense mechanisms in the factory area, no mercenaries dare to enter, let alone photograph Director Pace. By the way, Naike, while you were away, Chief Pace drove the PCPD car to the pharmaceutical factory, did you see him?"

"In which cars is Pace? I only saw the convoy, not the people inside." Zhuang Xuteng asked while eating: "Now it is obvious that those blue crystals are for the Sanliu Charity Foundation. Absolutely not It will be destroyed with chemicals, and it can only be rebranded and put on the market. If Palovich still wants to frame Director Pace, he must prove that safety blue is contraband, or prove that Sanliu Charity Foundation is evil and illegal."

"Humph, that's too difficult..." Ge Gongdao asked Zhuang Xuteng to sit down, hold the hot food in his hands, and then start the car and return on the road. As he drove, he said: "Two little birds, don't you have other news to say?"

"Yes! We checked the news about the big expo, and we found something. The four major companies will take turns holding product launches in the morning and afternoon of the same day, and then hold a joint press conference the next day. Sanliu Charity Foundation's Safety Blue, such an important product, was only officially announced at a small press conference. So we speculate that the other three product launches should also be Safety Blue-level products, and then the joint press conference is the highlight."

Zhuang Xuteng nodded and said, "The analysis is right, so what are the other three products?"

"The rock bird is still searching. The big expo will be held the day after tomorrow. It is impossible that there is no news at all." Nightingale said: "There will definitely be people who are responsible for printing advertisements, making mascots, printing promotional materials, and explaining booths. Some... Hey, there is news about my sister."

Yanque slowly opened his eyes, and while wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, he said: "There's something! Scarlet Company's management is the most lax. I found something called 'Execution Puppet'. It will probably happen this time." Launched at the Grand Expo. Judging from the description, it should be a puppet used in dangerous environments and simple repetitive work scenes. It uses a zombie helmet to remotely control it, which is very similar to the feeling of a zombie physical executioner. I don’t know more information Yes, several other companies have done a good job of keeping things secret, so it’s hard to do anything in a hurry.”

"Just know that they have this tacit understanding. Stop peeking. Safety first. Besides, in two days, this information will be made public." Zhuang Xuteng sighed and said: "The execution puppet... As soon as I heard this name, I Thinking of the Purple Man.”

Ge Gongdao also sighed and nodded, which aroused the curiosity of the two sisters. Zhuang Xuteng briefly told them about the battle with the purple-skinned man, hiding the specific content of the mission and other participants.

"You were able to deal with the purple-skinned man back then. It should be no problem now, right?" Nightingale said: "If the purple-skinned man uses the shadow slave equipment of the zombie executioner, the two of us can paralyze him by destroying communications. The purple-skinned man. Even if the purple-skinned man loses communication, he can continue to perform the mission... Our combat skills are not very good."

Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao can definitely defeat the purple-skinned men, provided that there are not too many purple-skinned men, and there are no more powerful new models. If the Scarlet Group dares to push execution puppets into the civilian market, and based on the consistent performance of these companies in establishing technical barriers and retaining the best technology for themselves, what will the most powerful puppet in their hands look like?

In terms of equipment, gangs have always been inferior to riot squads, probably on par with PCPD, and purple men have already appeared in gang activities. Assuming that the importance of the purple men in the equipment sequence is roughly equal to the level of the riot strike team, then there are also the constitutional army, the company's own business development department, the company's war department and the core defense force.

Since the purple-skinned man was obviously a mass-produced thing, Zhuang Xuteng didn't dare to think about how powerful the company would be if stronger puppets were used in the above departments. Wouldn't there be no countermeasures? In particular, the four companies are clearly showing signs of joint action. They really want to unite, stop internal friction, and stop fighting openly and secretly... In that case, will even the "ultimate method" of corporate war be ineffective against them?

Zhuang Xuteng just felt that the situation was not very good, specifically why it was not good, but he did not know how to continue to think deeply. His thoughts are mainly focused on what kind of products the four major groups will launch. You must know that the four top companies have not released products in the name of their headquarters for a long time - before, this kind of thing was all done under the name of various specialized companies or holding companies under the group. Conducted nominally.

A few days later, things finally came to light. There was no problem with Yanque's intelligence. The four major companies held four small product launches in the name of their headquarters, and held a joint press conference the next day.

The Scarlet Group announced execution puppets that could free society from danger and simple duplication of labor;

Today the group announced shadow copying technology that can significantly reduce the production cost of shadow equipment and reduce side effects;

Sanliu Charitable Foundation announced Safe Blue, a spiritual comfort product that can be used as daily medicine;

Dingxin Mochuang announced a new generation of power devices and means of transportation: cars.
