Chapter 151

Besides, if you still have internal strife at this time, isn't that courting death?

"Then what are you doing here?"

"Didn't I say that? I'm just visiting the patient."

"Are you done visiting now?"

"Hey, flat-chested, irritable little girl, don't rush to chase us away... How about giving them some private space?"

She said something that made Dong Xiang furious.

.......

It took some effort, but Et finally persuaded Dong Xiang and the others to leave.

Half lying on the bed, with a playful smile on her face, she raised a finger and poked Lin Qiao's face: "What? It turns out that you are also quite cute when you don't talk... It's a pity that you have a mouth."

But just like the doctor just now, her fingers couldn't even press the skin down.

It felt like pressing on a warm steel plate.

She turned her head to look at the door that was gently closed, and then put her ear close to Lin Qiao's ear, and the warm breath hit Lin Qiao's ear.

With her breath as sweet as orchid, she whispered: "Okay, they have all left, you don't have to pretend anymore... When I was talking just now, I saw your eyelids move a little."

"..."

"What's wrong? Staying in bed is not a good habit. Do you want a hug from your sister?"

Her words did not get any response, and even the oxygen mask on Lin Qiao's mouth did not exhale white steam.

Staring at Lin Qiao, who was lying there like a corpse, Ate narrowed her eyes.

Standing up, accompanied by a rustling sound, she sat astride Lin Qiao's abdomen, and then pressed her whole body against Lin Qiao's body.

She was obviously 24 years old, two years older than Lin Qiao, but she was as petite as Hinami...Except for the rise and fall of her chest, she was hanging and hitting Dong Xiang and Hinami.

It seemed to be an extremely ambiguous posture to outsiders, but Ate frowned and pressed his ears against Lin Qiao's chest.

——No heartbeat.

The electrocardiogram monitor next to her gave the same answer.

The slender fingers were close to the man's body, slowly moving down, and soon approached the lower abdomen.

But there was still no change, and there was still only a straight line on the ECG monitor.

This guy... No way?

"It seems that he really fainted... But it's okay this way."

She sat on Lin Qiao and looked down at him, and the sharp spikes of the kagune quickly grew from her shoulders like swollen muscles.

"Although I promised Xiao Hina and the others that I would not do anything, I still feel very unhappy when I think about the fact that you took power before."

"According to the current situation, you are of no use, so just die honestly~"

"Anyway, no one will pursue it... By the way, that pink-haired girl might, but I will kill her later."

The corner of his mouth was slightly raised, and with a sound of breaking through the air, the kagune behind him stabbed at Lin Qiao like a sharp sword.

Bang——

A low muffled sound sounded, and the falling kagune stabbed the pillow next to him with only a thin line of separation.

The stab was off... Although it was intentional.

The ECG monitor was straight from beginning to end, without even a little fluctuation.

"You haven't responded even at this point, and you actually fainted... If possible, I hope you are pretending."

Sighing, looking at Lin Qiao who never made any movement, Ate shook his head helplessly.

And making such a boring test... doesn't it make him look like an idiot?

The guy who was obviously in the way fell down, and the leadership of the bronze tree returned to his hands. Next, as long as he beat the dragon step by step, he can realize his ideal. Logically, he should be happy.

Patted the skirt, jumped off the bed, and walked out of the ward.

It was a while after Ate left.

Two black tentacles stretched out from Lin Qiao's wrists and inserted into the socket beside them.

Chapter 169 Christmas Eve Showdown

Maybe it was because he was pushed to the limit.

If CCG and the people under the bronze tree were still thinking of fighting each other before, then after Long Yi's output and random attacks, basically no one would have such a naive idea.

The two parties, who originally disliked each other, had to cooperate with each other under the orders of their superiors, and now they have completely put aside their reluctance.

Everything is progressing in an orderly manner, and the intense preparations have come to an end.

Except for the necessary combatants and post-stage personnel, most civilians, including ghouls, have been transported to a safe artificial island.

For most people, this may be the last calm before the storm, and therefore such days will not last long.

For example, now...

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Christmas Eve is not peaceful.

It was just after nightfall, and the house under my feet suddenly began to shake, and there were continuous explosions in the distance, as well as a flash of flames and smoke.

"Where did the explosion come from?"

The sudden explosion made everyone nervous.

——Enemy attack!

They all realized this at the same time.

Many people who had already lain down to rest did not care about anything else, and hurriedly got up from their beds and looked out the window to find the source of the explosion.

It's just that the culprit who caused all this did not hide, but appeared openly on the streets.

A group of pale men wearing black suits and bowler hats approached the CCG building with neat steps.

On the other side, there was a group of people dressed as clowns, also walking towards the CCG building.

Not only that, among the two parties, there are also many Amazons with clothes left on their bodies.

Although they don't know the specific plan of CCG, the Joker and V Organization will naturally not watch them make all preparations and then destroy the dragon's core in one fell swoop.

They had worked hard for so long, not just to create a big target that looked scary... and because of this, they decided to strike first.

However, despite the sudden incident, CCG and Bronze Tree were not unprepared for the simultaneous attacks of V and Joker.

In fact, they had been on guard against this a long time ago, so after the incident happened, they quickly entered a state of preparation for war.

"Except for the members of the exploration team, the others are responsible for fighting against V and the Joker!"

After the simple instructions were over, the investigators and ghouls who were also prepared dispersed to confront V and the Joker.

The team on V's side was incredibly neat, and the sound of footsteps echoed all around, just like a well-trained army.

In contrast, there was a scattered formation on the clown's side, and there were even some who escaped from the battle...and were executed by the people around them.

The people on both sides stopped when they were about fifty meters away.

Marutesai, who was sitting in the command room, stared at the monitor showing the battlefield in front of him, and took a deep breath: "——Notify everyone, there is only one order, win for me... That's it."

There is no specific command. In this situation where it is completely a head-on encounter, if you want to fight, you don't have to pay much attention to it. You can just use the knife and go up.

On the ever-changing battlefield, there is no time for hesitation. Any hesitation will result in defeat.

Rather than being a micromanager who manipulates people's mentality, it is better to let everyone present perform their own role.

Just like the confrontation between two armies in ancient times, a chilling atmosphere filled the field.

After a period of silence, then...

Scarlet eyes were revealed, and the team organized by Joker and V simultaneously erupted with astonishing heat, making the surrounding area hot in an instant.

The burst of high-heat shock instantly tore the clothes on his body, and after a burst of smoke, he suddenly transformed into an alien-like body.

All G·Amazon.

But before they could all transform, all kinds of weapons and ammunition were poured on them for free.

Not only light weapons such as submachine guns, assault rifles, and machine guns, but also powerful heavy weapons such as rocket launchers, howitzers, and armed helicopters.

Thanks to the Self-Defense Forces at that time, they kept all these weapons in order to escape quickly.

Further away, warships on the sea were also firing frequently at the set target location.

The moment the fire appeared and the explosion produced a sonic boom, it swept over V and the Joker's position.

Deafening violent explosions and screams broke the silence between them.

Many V organization members and clowns who had no time to transform were blown into a pool of blood mist on the spot.

Faced with such free firepower, even those G·Amazon that had successfully transformed were seriously injured.

He fell to the ground and let out bursts of wailing sounds.

They really didn't expect that the opponent would be so ungrateful. After expecting to gain the power of the ghouls and Amazons, they were stunned on the spot by killing them in close combat.

However, it is unrealistic to expect that such a wave of attacks can completely eliminate the opponent.

Soon, they spread out and attacked the investigators and ghouls on the field.

In order not to affect their own people, the previous artillery could only stop attacking.

The scene quickly became tense and entered into close combat.

Organization V is indeed a killer organization that has been trained and served by the Hexiu family for many years. Even if they were caught off guard, as half-human beings, their individual strength is much stronger than that of the investigators.

After transforming into G·Amazon, it showed an overwhelming advantage.

"Our side has the advantage in terms of numbers, but...is it at a disadvantage in terms of combat power?"

It's terrible!

Marutesai turned to look at the expedition team next to him who had put on protective clothing and was about to go to the inside of the dragon to destroy the core.

On the human side, apart from Haizaki Fumome and him, there are special-level investigators, plus Uoi Gun and several other quasi-special-level investigators.

On the Bronze Tree side, there are Aite, Yoshimura Kozen, Jindai Shiei, Shifang Renji, Kirishima Touka, Iheiri, etc., who are at least starting at the SS level.

It can almost be said to cover all the high-end combat power on our side.

"Hey, Xiao...Echidna, right?"

"Yeah, that's right. What's the matter? Magical girl special class."

"Don't call me that weird name like that guy Shi Sen!"

He subconsciously argued, then cleared his throat and said seriously:

"In short, the situation on the battlefield is not good. Our current combat power may not be enough to resist them for too long. I need to mobilize half of the exploration team... If only you are left, it should be fine, right?" "

Although they were reluctant, they had to split up their forces based on the situation on the field.

Otherwise, without high-end combat power, it was only a matter of time before they were wiped out by V and the Joker.

However, in this way, the exploration team, whose manpower and combat power were greatly reduced, would need longer time to reach the core, and the danger they faced would also increase accordingly.

"This is really... a bit tricky, but there is no way, right?"

At thought for a while and agreed. After all, if the front battlefield here collapsed, then they would naturally have to face hundreds of V organization and Joker members who would be free later.

"Mr. Tadara, please stay with us."

It took a few minutes to select the personnel. In addition to the special investigators, Tadara, Shifang Renshi, Furuma Madoka and other ghouls stayed to fight against V and the Joker.

Soon, the original crusade team was reduced to less than half of its original size.

Without time to say goodbye, the remaining exploration team set off to the inside of the dragon's body.
