The Devil Comes to America

Chapter 277: Action

Arthur can still fight Simpson, but Bob in the base doesn't think so.

He didn't expect that after just three days of not seeing him, Simpson had become stronger or he just didn't use his full strength before.

But this can't be my problem, it must be Simpson's problem.

After immediately reporting that Simpson had evolved on his own, or had been injected with a lot of the drugs he brought out, Bob said something on the walkie-talkie.

He also noticed that Morris was very dissatisfied with the group of helpers they had brought in.

Or rather, they were unhappy that they only revealed their information to Arthur's team.

Or maybe it was simply revenge for Arthur's failure to act in time.

But Bob could see that if it was just Arthur, the guy who had been injected with the fifth stage of the drug, he alone could not be a match for Simpson.

Bob's voice could be heard in Robin's headset: "Lieutenant, now is not the time to watch the show."

Robin said nonchalantly: "Did you remind them just now? I meant when I was in danger."

"Lieutenant, you should know what punishment you will receive if this operation fails because of you alone."

"Believe me, before I get punished, I will definitely let the person who punishes me know why I did it."

Bob gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me your terms, Morris!"

"Pharmacy." Robin said calmly, "Tell me how many potions Base No. 4 can provide me?"

"We only have two bottles. It's not particularly easy to produce this kind of stuff nowadays, otherwise the hunting team would have injected it long ago!"

"Both bottles are mine." Morris asked, "Also, how many bases do we have?"

"This is confidential, Lieutenant. Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about!"

"That means there's nothing to talk about?"

"What on earth are you going to do!"

"I'm going to go to Base One later. I believe that's where I need to be. Answer my questions, Bob."

"I told you it was confidential!"

"You broke the rules and disclosed the information to me, so that I can trust you better, right?"

Bob glanced at Arthur, who seemed to be about to collapse, and finally said, "Six seats!"

"Remember my potion," Morris said, instantly joining the battle.

With his joining, the pressure on Arthur was greatly reduced.

Facing the two people, especially Robin who seemed to have suddenly become stronger, Simpson also found something wrong.

He has never been the kind of person who likes to fight. He was able to endure it in the laboratory, so it’s okay to endure it now.

So after a feint, Simpson turned and ran.

Jia Yu sighed as he watched Simpson run away: "Boss, this guy's only skill lies in running away, right?"

Xiu Nuo glanced at him and said, "What qualifications do you have to criticize others?"

"He ran away." Robin reported: "What now, Bob?"

"Chase!" Bob said with a dark face, "We must catch him!"

Of course we have to catch him. This trip, including the four semi-finished products, has cost nearly 200 million! Who can afford the sunk cost if Simpson gets away at this time?

"There's something wrong with this guy!" Arthur said as he chased him, "I request the use of lethal force."

But Bob said immediately: "No! We must survive. A dead Simpson is worthless!" Robin said: "Can you afford the loss of those two perfect fourth-stage experimental subjects, Bob? Don't forget, all this is your command error!"

Bob was going crazy: "What are you going to say again, Morris!"

"We have to consider our own safety. We can assure you that we will capture him alive if possible, but if our lives are really threatened, we must have the right to use lethal force to kill him! Otherwise, there will be no way to pursue him!"

Arthur glanced at Robin in surprise.

"I said, if he died"

"Then the responsibility will be shared by the three of us." Robin said directly: "But if the two of us die and this guy still runs away, think about who will be held responsible?"

Bob was stunned at first, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! You are allowed to use lethal weapons, but you'd better not hit him in the head!"

"Don't worry." Robin said and turned off the communication.

Arthur also turned it off directly.

"You can actually persuade him." Arthur looked at Robin in surprise.

"If I were to change someone who has been on the battlefield, I wouldn't be able to persuade him." Robin said indifferently, "Because we all know that all our actions are to complete the mission. But these guys sitting in the office don't have this awareness. What they worry about most is not failure, but responsibility."

Hearing this, Arthur looked around and then said, "It was my question before, sir. If we find the potion, it will be up to you to decide how to distribute it."

Robin raised an eyebrow and replied, "Go get your weapons first."

The two returned to the car and took their guns, then got in the car. Robin opened the communication again: "Where is he?"

"Southwest, you better hurry up."

The vehicle started and the two men quickly chased in the direction Simpson fled.

"He went into the alley ahead and I didn't see him come out."

Robin got out and went into the alley with his weapon, while Arthur drove to the other side.

But after the two met, Simpson was nowhere to be seen.

"I didn't see him."

"You'd better not let him get away!" Bob's voice was a little irritable: "I can be sure that he didn't come out of this alley. He didn't climb onto the roof. Is there a window in the alley? Or anything else that could allow him to enter the building?"

"No." Robin glanced over and said, "It seems that he has gone underground."

The two quickly found a manhole cover, and from the traces it showed that the cover had obviously just been opened.

"I don't recommend going down." Robin said, "We are completely unfamiliar with the situation down there. Bob, I advise you to think carefully about it."

"I've thought about it clearly, Morris! Simpson must be brought back today, either in person or with his body!"

"Well, you're the commander." Robin opened the manhole cover and jumped down.

However, the two did not close the manhole cover. As they went deeper into the sewer, Robin heard a crackling sound in his earphones.

He closed his eyes slightly, as if he was feeling something.

Suddenly, Robin jumped to the side. At this time, Robin shouted, "Be careful!"

But it was too late, a dark figure had already rushed out from the sewage and pressed Arthur to the ground!

Robin rushed forward, but was kicked away by the figure!
But Robin had already raised his gun and chose to shoot directly!
After a few gunshots, there was also the sound of breaking glass.

Simpson found that he was only shot in the arm, but
He turned around and looked at Robin in disbelief: "You killed him?"
