Chapter 80 Inexplicable

"Are you okay?"

The leader of the outer perimeter security team, who had come to provide support with an automatic rifle, helped Sakamoto up from the ground.

"It's nothing, I just got tricked and I feel a little unwell now. I'll be fine after a rest. Oh, and water, water, I'm so thirsty."

Sakamoto took the water bottle from the team leader and immediately started chugging it down.

"You've done a great job this time. You were the first to spot the enemy's attack, and you remained calm and fearless in the face of danger. With just one gun and maybe two snipers, you held off the enemy's Eye of God wielder for so long. You deserve at least a first-class merit."

"Yes, Sakata, to borrow an old saying from Liyue, 'Don't forget your friends when you become rich and powerful!'"

Right next to them, the guard who had shot and killed the attacker with a semi-automatic rifle also sat down.

He didn't forget to put the new magazine back in, and to quickly pull his hand away the moment the magazine was pressed down.

The group found a place to sit down and chatted idly.

With their reinforcements arriving, the situation on the battlefield has stabilized, so their conversations are harmless.

The attack was carried out by a small force, not many in number, but its composition was somewhat strange.

The stronger ones were a few sea monsters. Sakamoto killed one, the sniper killed another, and the rest were basically wiped out by a barrage of bullets and two grenades.

The rest were just a bunch of rabble who posed no threat; a little intimidation and they surrendered.

The person with the highest combat power is the one who possesses the Water Element God's Eye.

He was shot five times and lay on the ground, already dead.

They achieved a resounding victory with zero casualties, annihilating the entire squad.

"How's the situation on site?"

Sparrow also arrived at the scene after receiving news that the battle was over.

Beidou followed behind the sparrow, silently observing the battlefield.

"Fortunately, Sakamoto was injured, but no one died. However, we can't find anything out yet."

The leader of the outer perimeter security team stood up and shook his head.

"These Wild Abominations are just hired to do things. They only know how to follow the team. We killed all the Sea Demons who are above the Wild Abominations. The leader must be someone important. He has the Eye of the Water Element and his combat power is not bad. Look, he's over there."

The team leader curled his lip and gestured to the attacker who was sleeping peacefully on the ground.

Sparrow also found it a bit tricky.

"Then, check them carefully again and see if there is anything on them that can explain the situation."

"Okay." The team leader nodded.

After the team leader left, Beidou began to whisper to Sparrow.

"Your weapon is quite powerful. I heard it firing in rapid succession, didn't I?"

"Some can, some can't. For example, the one I have here can fire in bursts, and the rate of fire is very fast."

Sparrow waved the automatic rifle in his arms toward the Big Dipper.

"Can it be sold...?"

"who?!"

Before Beidou could finish speaking, a sharp shout came from afar.

Sparrow and the others turned their heads and saw soldiers standing guard not far ahead, holding guns and looking in one direction with high tension.

"It's me, it's me, one of us! I'm from Southern Cross!"

A breathless voice came over.

Hearing that familiar voice, Beidou became somewhat excited.

"It was Wen Chen's voice. I knew they would be alright. Hey, be careful, don't shoot, these are our own people."

Beidou hurriedly stepped forward to greet Wenchen, while Maque waved to signal the guards to put their guns away.

After all, an attack had just occurred, so it's no wonder they're so sensitive.

At this critical moment, it's good enough that they didn't fire directly.

"What's going on? Why are you all alone? Where's Anxin?"

"Boss, huff huff~"

Wen Chen took a few deep breaths.

“Those extremists are going to start a rebellion. Nine times out of ten, they will launch a surprise attack on key locations on Haiqi Island tonight, and our place will probably be one of their targets.”

"what?"

Beidou and Sparrow exchanged a glance, both somewhat puzzled.

"We were just attacked here, and it has been less than ten minutes since we wiped out the enemy."

"what?"

Wen Chen's expression was somewhat blank for a moment.

He peeked out and looked behind Beidou and Maque.

The ground was covered with traces of blood and fire, and guards were still moving bodies. There were also craters on the ground that looked like they had been made by a bomb.

"This...isn't this right?"

"What? When I came out, they were still hesitant and hadn't given the order yet. I ran like crazy all the way, using all my skills, but I still couldn't outrun their fully armed army?"

Wen Chen was a little confused.

"Perhaps they had been lying in ambush all along. This attacking team is small in number, but they are quite strong."

The sparrow suggested a possibility.

"That's not right either. Although I was delayed for a while after shaking off the pursuers, I kept working hard afterwards. How could their messengers be faster than me?" Wen Chen shook his head.

“Sparrow, we found this on him.”

The team leader casually pointed to the peaceful holder of the Eye of the Water God on the ground and handed several pieces of the Thunder Triple Bard that had been shattered by bullets to Sparrow.

"People from the Shogunate?"

Sparrow frowned as he looked at the Triple Thunder Barrel.

"It's hard to say, after all, the Thunder Triple Tomoe isn't some kind of secret letter. But whoever it is, sending someone with the Divine Eye, tsk tsk, that's quite a big move."

“Indeed.” Sparrow nodded in deep agreement.

But what is the purpose of such a large-scale attack on a foreign fleet?

From her perspective, the squad's attack came out of nowhere.

"No!" Sparrow's expression suddenly turned serious. "If this squad is from the Shogunate, then the surprise attack Wen Chen mentioned hasn't happened yet, has it?"

The atmosphere at the scene paused briefly.

"Quickly, all units, immediately construct defensive positions. We'll clean up this battlefield later, and closely monitor any possible enemy movements!" Sparrow, having recovered from its initial reaction, swiftly issued various orders.

"Send a few people to immediately notify the Coral Palace and nearby friendly units to prepare for an enemy sneak attack."

After giving the order, she looked at the Big Dipper again.

"Captain Beidou, now that we have news of your personnel, why don't we turn back first?"

Beidou then looked at Wenchen.

"So, what about Anxin?"

"As for Anxin, he and that final ninja, Miss Momoyo was responsible for informing Coral Palace."

Once Wen Chen had recovered, he remembered the question the boss had asked him when he first arrived.

"The ninja from the final episode?"

Beidou and Sparrow both looked at Wenchen in surprise.

You've only been out for a short while, yet you've had quite an experience.

"Yes, we were able to survive thanks to Miss Baidai's help..."

He recounted the events and the two individuals in detail.

Chapter 81 Help me, Grandpa Kentucky!

"careful!"

The specially made chief inspector's sacrificial sword flew out and pierced towards Bai Dai's back.

An Xin, who was standing nearby, suddenly noticed this scene. He drew his sword to block the attack and tried to warn the attacker, but it was too late.

As Momoyo turned around to dodge, the chief inspector's sacrificial sword had already slashed across her body.

"what!"

It starts from the chest and spreads upwards, covering most of the face.

Bai Dai also suffered an eye injury in the attack.

At this moment, Bai Dai slumped to the ground, covering her injured eye, enduring the pain, and trying to calm her breathing.

She had also been slashed in the chest and was bleeding. At this moment, she had to keep her breathing steady, otherwise it would only hasten her death.

"Hmph, what a pity."

The figure of the Fools' Debt Settler of Fire slowly emerged.

He felt very sorry.
