Scorpio operated at full power for three seconds, directly ablating a fist-sized hole near the door lock. Jiang Zhou prayed silently in his heart that the people inside would not be stupid enough to stand in front of the door and be shot like this.

Beat him to death.

Then, against the remnants of the scorching heat of the previously baked metal, he reached his hand through the hole and opened the locked door lock from the inside - for those things with simple functions, people will still prefer to use traditional machinery after all.

structure.

Even though he was well prepared for heat insulation, Jiang Zhou still felt a series of blisters on his hands.

But it’s not your own body anyway, so you don’t feel bad if it wears out.

Kicking the door open, Jiang Zhou pulled off his burning sleeve. Looking at the dumbfounded middleman Zhu Lin in the room, he calmly replaced the Scorpio's energy magazine in front of him.

"you……"

The other person pointed at his face and was speechless, probably because he thought it looked familiar.

"Shouldn't he be dead?"

Jiang Zhou helped the other party finish what he said, and then used his blistered hand to take off the peaked cap on his head, revealing the oozing penetrating wound on his head.

During this period, he grimaced in pain - no matter how it was not his own body, one hand was roasted to a rare degree, the pain still had to be borne by his own consciousness.

But at this moment, the ferocious expression on Liao Qi's face due to pain, combined with the wound on his head, seemed to mean something else to the other party.

The evil spirit who was supposed to be dead came to seek his life.

"Pluto said that my life should not be cut off, so he asked me to come back from hell and bring a few backers with me."

Jiang Zhou naturally imitated Liao Qi's usual speaking tone.

"How did you find this place..."

Zhu Lin was so frightened that his lips trembled, and he said while shrinking back.

This is not Zhu Lin's home, but one of his many safe houses scattered throughout the resettlement area. This is also a characteristic of the middleman business. And after such an important business is completed, it is naturally impossible for him to stay here.

Make the next transaction at home.

Logically speaking, no one should know about this place.

Thinking of this, Zhu Lin once again noticed the gun in the opponent's hand, the shape of the crossbow, and the radiator that was constantly dissipating heat... It was unmistakable, the Scorpio-type pulse pistol produced by Mars War Technology Company.

Among the people I know, there happens to be only one who likes to use this thing, and I just came back from meeting that person...

Zhu Lin turned his head and looked at the silver-white memory plugged into the computer at the moment, and figured out everything for a while.

"That bastard, Old Snake, sold me?"

Turning back to look at Liao Qi, who was pointing a gun at him, he shouted.

For a street mercenary to betray his middleman, this can be regarded as a death sentence for his career. Even if there is only a suspicion of such a possibility, it will lead to unanimous suppression and exclusion from other middlemen. And if there is conclusive evidence to prove betrayal,

It will even cause people in the same industry to issue top-level bounties and chase them to death.

To put it in an exaggerated way, the loose alliance of middlemen in the entire Nord settlement area exists based on this rule as a link.

"Put your hands up and stop talking nonsense."

Jiang Zhou did not answer the other party's question, but raised the gun in his hand.

Zhu Lin took a deep breath to calm down his emotions, and then raised his hands. But the other party did not raise his hands to express surrender as Jiang Zhou asked. Instead, he opened his arms to him as if he wanted to hug Jiang Zhou.

his own chest.

And the expression on his face changed from the previous shock and resentment to sincerity and regret like a face change in Sichuan opera.

Then, the first words he spoke made Jiang Zhou unable to hold back.

"Comrade Liao Qi..."

"Who the hell is gay with you!"

Jiang Zhou interrupted the other party sharply.

"I'm serious, Comrade Liao Qi. You may not know, but I am now also a member of Icarus. I have recited the 'Soul Liberation Oath' and agree with the organization's program. This is definitely a battle in which you can trust each other with your lives.

Brother!"

Not caring that his words were interrupted, Zhu Lin spoke sincerely and almost piously.

Jiang Zhou almost used up all his restraint to resist pulling the trigger and blowing the opponent's head off.

If the native Liao Qi were here, I'm afraid he would have shot him long ago.

As the other party spoke, he opened his hand and showed him a 3D projection - a pair of gradually shattering wings flying toward the sun, which was the symbol of the Icarus Liberation Front.

The personal terminal connected to Liao Qi's eye movement control device instantly scanned the pattern, and then an Identification Friend or Foe verification message popped up.

The signature code shows that the other party is really a member of Icarus. He just joined a few hours ago, and the information of the recommenders and voters has been hidden - only the top executives of Icarus, or those who were

This happens only to members assigned secret missions.

Then this will be easy to handle.

Jiang Zhou thought to himself.

This is the purpose of my trip.

The previous "Siege of Theseus Warehouse" caused the entire elite combat force of Icarus to be destroyed. Two of the three depth 3 adjusters in the organization were killed on the spot. The remaining people were either killed in battle or killed in battle.

They were captured and transported to Tartarus - sent to be transformed into zombie slave workers, or thrown into the abyss and dark web to be used as "mining cards" for mining.

Of course, there was also an unlucky guy from a hundred years ago who was half buried in the ground.

"Who is your recommender?"

Jiang Zhou asked.

When I was at the Limbo training ground not long ago, I occasionally heard 136, Chinatsu Sakura and others talking about the ambush they suffered in Theseus Warehouse. It was definitely a traitor in the organization, and they gave Pluto Deep Diving Company

He leaked the information. Otherwise, he would never have been like now, with his entire army wiped out in his own sphere of influence, without even a single survivor.

But there are still survivors...

When Jiang Zhou heard their conversation, he silently added in his heart.

Although he died soon after.

However, Liao Qi, who was staying in a safe house to avoid the limelight, was still approached by street mercenaries and shot in the head. This further verified the fact that there was a traitor in the Icarus organization.

Therefore, after Jiang Zhou gained control of Liao Qi's body, he did not choose to return to the organization immediately. Instead, he planned to follow the clues to find the traitors in the organization first.

Otherwise, he would foolishly go back with something as important as the "Universal Printer" activation authority. After returning to the organization, he was warmly welcomed by the traitor. Then on a dark and windy night, the body was tied with lead

The pieces were sunk into the radiation-filled lake to feed the mutant fish.

Then who should he cry to?

And now, someone recommended this rotten person to join the Icarus Liberation Front?

Who is the traitor in the organization? Need we say more?

He must be his recommender and voter!

"Let me ask again, who is your recommender?"

Seeing that the other party didn't reply, Jiang Zhou asked again. And directly put the Scorpio in his hand into charging state as a warning.

Seeing this, Zhu Lin's expression became panicked.

"I...I don't know."

He said so.

"have no idea?"

Jiang Zhou planned to shoot the other party in the thigh to test whether the other party really didn't know.

Probably seeing that Jiang Zhou was really planning to shoot, Zhu Lin quickly raised his hands as Jiang Zhou asked him to do.

He said almost pleadingly:

"Comrade Liao Qi, I really don't know..."

"Is it Booker?"

Jiang Zhou, who felt the blood rushing to his head, asked sharply, and his finger on the trigger began to exert slight force.

"who?"

Zhu Lin raised his hands above his head, his face pale.

"Booker Erwin, head of Intelligence!"

Jiang Zhou added. In his memory, Booker is most likely to be a traitor to the organization. After all, only three people know the location of Liao Qi's safe house, and the other two are now in Tartarus, waiting to be captured.

Send it to the abyss dark web for mining.

"I……"

Zhu Lin's lips trembled and he spoke.

But just before he seemed about to say anything, without warning, his head exploded.

It's like a flower of flesh and blood blooming.

The explosion so close made Jiang Zhou feel a warmth on his face. At the same time, he tasted rust in his mouth.

Jiang Zhou did not shoot.

"I didn't expect you were still alive, Liao Qi."

A calm voice echoed behind Jiang Zhou.

Jiang Zhou did not dare to look back. Through Liao Qi's memory, he recognized this voice.

Booker Erwin, head of intelligence for the Icarus Liberation Front.
