One problem after another: "That was... the entire building collapsed? Did the rebels detonate a bomb?"
Chris's situation is still unclear, and we can only make inferences based on the available information.
“No…” Angela changed back into her simple clothes, and an unusual seriousness crept onto her face.
"This feeling......"
......
Another loud bang, and another building collapsed.
"Wait, that collapsed building seems to be not far from us..."
But Leia's mother pushed her wheelchair up to her and said, "The air isn't very good today... We should hurry home so we don't catch a cold."
"I don't know where we can go, let's just hide for now!!!"
Chris put away her weapon, turned around and prepared to push her wheelchair and run away immediately. Let alone her, how far could she run in a wheelchair?
But we still have to try, after all, Rhea risked her life to draw away the gunfire...
Just as the three were about to turn back and retreat, a figure flew at high speed toward their location.
"Ugh...uh!"
"Miss Rhea?!"
Amidst the dust kicked up by the collapsing building, Rhea was caught in some unknown shockwave and sent flying straight towards their location, where the situation was far from optimistic.
"Rhea! How could this happen... She's so badly injured!"
She quickly bent down and helped Rhea up, trying to bring her back to consciousness.
"Rhea, open your eyes, Rhea!"
"Angela...?"
Fortunately, she is still able to understand the current situation, so there is no need to confirm whether she is conscious or not, but this is not the most serious problem at present.
"Why...what are you still here?! Run!"
But it was too late. In the misty ruins, the sound of footsteps that shook the earth echoed. Debris flew everywhere, and a huge black suit of armor had already arrived before them, bringing the death that terrified all living beings.
The armored mask trembled a few times, exhaling a dark red gas: "So you intend to fight to the death...? But it's just a waste of your energy."
It was truly a series of misfortunes, and Chris felt that her worldview had been severely impacted.
She hesitated and asked, "And who are you? A machine? Or a person...?"
“She is Morse, Sergeant,” Angela said solemnly.
“Morse…?” Chris was unfamiliar with the name. “So you’re not a rebel?”
"Yes, she's more dangerous than the rebels. Hide in the back, your sister will protect you!"
To everyone's surprise, the armor completely ignored Angela, and her gaze was once again focused on the seriously injured Rhea.
"Woman, don't try to drag others down with you. Right now, the only one who needs peace is you."
......
"Well......!"
Rhea tried to get up, but her injuries were too severe, and she could only drag her legs along with difficulty.
"Rhea, you can't beat her! Run away! Okay?!"
“I knew I couldn’t beat her. I detonated all the bombs hidden on the drone, but I still couldn’t hurt her in the slightest.”
Rhea gritted her teeth; this was the first time she had found herself in such a difficult situation, and to make matters worse, there were so many restrictions...
"But with the sergeant and you, there might still be a chance, but unfortunately my mother is here too!"
......
The two were stunned, not expecting that Rhea was still concerned about this.
"Although I often act without thinking, I know that there's no way to escape while pushing a wheelchair."
......
"Woman, are you ready? Suffering is short, rest is long; escape the pain of the plague and enter into rest..."
puff!
A huge flame suddenly erupted from somewhere, carrying a shockwave that slammed directly into Morse, knocking her back two meters. Despite this, the damage to her seemed minimal.
"you......"
Morse looked down at the spot where he had been hit, but apart from the lingering smoke, there were no obvious wounds.
From another part of the street, a number of people dressed in black combat uniforms and red-eyed gas masks rushed towards this place.
......
"Morse."
Inside the armor, she heard a familiar voice.
"Asmodeus, why do you call me at this time?"
"It's time to stop; now is not the time."
"..."
“Those soldiers are Umbrella’s men, sent by Aither. They will cooperate in the cleanup. You just need to leave safely.”
"......Oh well."
After the conversation ended, Morse put away his axe and slowly walked towards the ashes rising behind him, disappearing without a trace shortly afterward.
......
"This is the Umbrella Health Team. The target has been eliminated. There have been no casualties within the damage area, only a small number of injured."
"How is this possible? Such massive destruction, yet no one died?!"
Rhea couldn't believe it. The armor had caused such massive damage, yet no one had died.
Indeed, Morse was just acting a bit crazy, but she controlled her strength, and the people had already been evacuated in advance. Therefore, there were no actual deaths, at most injuries or property damage.
"Yes."
......
Soon after, the government soldiers arrived as scheduled, along with the minister directly in charge of Rhea.
"How could this happen? Although we received the report, this is far too horrific..."
The minister looked at the vast ruins before him in disbelief. If the report hadn't been true, he might have preferred to believe that the area had been attacked by rebels.
Rhea said coldly, "You're too slow. The prisoners have already escaped before you show up."
"Dead, you are here too."
"It happened right at my place, so I had no choice but to get involved."
But she was also curious: "But...isn't this a matter for the military? Why is the minister involved?"
Unexpectedly, the other party pulled out a pistol from behind his back: "Well, since things have already escalated, there's no need for me to beat around the bush with you anymore."
“Undead, no, Rhea Schneider, we suspect you of treason and are investigating you according to the law.”
"Treason? Wait, what did you say?!"
"Your mother is here too, so don't shout. The truth will come out soon."
Before she could struggle, government soldiers handcuffed her and took her away.
......
15. Parting ways
Not far away, Montagnier...
......
...Killing you like that would be too easy on you.
I'll drive you to the brink of despair, and then take away everything you cherish.
I want you... to beg me to kill you...
Since my brother died tragically because of your music, I have forgotten how to cry out loud and how to laugh.
What would happen if you imitated a human, conductor?
Will you feel excruciating pain? Or will you treat it like you just crushed an insect, just like before?
Let's start with you, little Boy Scout, hate me all you want.
puff!
......
"Does the sheet music lose its usefulness once I get my hands on it?"
The shot missed; several ugly monsters blocked her sniping attempt, and looking at their appearance, she immediately guessed what had happened.
"Haha, clever one, Vice Captain Katners."
“Sena........”
Montani gritted her teeth, wishing she could tear the woman on the other end of the walkie-talkie to pieces.
On the other side, Sena remained relaxed: "I want to see the chief conductor just like you. That being said, we can't just let a madman who wants to kill the conductor go unchecked. That's why I waited until you and the bishop parted ways, cough cough... um."
Montani glanced at the monsters, her expression turning stern: "...You didn't even show yourself, and you think you can deal with me with just the fragments of Gagsherav?"
"What, is it not working? With your physical condition, those things are more than enough to deal with you. It's obvious why you had to drag the bishop into this."
......
......
"Uh!"
Montani was already wounded during the escape, but she still tried to kill the monsters while retreating to the location of the safe house.
But the voice on the other end of the walkie-talkie was as annoying as a fly buzzing around...
"I've only just begun, and it's already over? Don't you think you're living up to the title of vice-captain? Hmm... do I have to mention your brother to cheer you up?"
"Don't you dare mention my brother!!!"
bang bang bang! ! !
......
......
"Sister, is the government army attacking you? Hold on, we're coming right away!"
"Mind your own business, take the rest of you and leave, you idiot!"
......
"Oh my, how touching~ The person you originally planned to use and then discard is now trying to save you, even though he himself is clearly very weak."
Sena's taunts continued, but this only fueled Montagni's anger, which she was powerless to stop.
"Rest in peace, Vice Captain. I've had this feeling ever since the first time I saw you. Requiem is the most suitable song for you."
......
The monsters were getting closer, and Montani was out of ammunition and food, with little strength left. It was only a matter of time before she was surrounded in these alleys.
“Damn it…”
Is it over?
boom!
The giant axe swung, instantly slicing the monsters in two, filthy, foul-smelling liquid splattering everywhere on the walls, a disgusting sight.
"Go and rest, I'll let them rest in peace..."
"Morse?"
