Artifact

Gone are the hallways strewn with the blood of the stumps, replaced by a metallic corridor made entirely of special alloys.

The corridor is much wider than the previous passage, two feet high and more than six feet wide, enough to open up a two-way eight-lane road.

And, there is no fork in the road.

At the end of this huge corridor are three large hexagonal mechanical doors, which are now closed, except for the long strip of light that hangs high above the ceiling and emits white light, illuminating the entire corridor as if it were daylight.

Obviously, the underground labyrinth was a massive, variable-type building, which Nightsteen had expected from the time he got on the elevator.

What tricks does the Britannica want to play this time?

Just as he was thinking, the gate at the end of the corridor opened and closed, and a large number of heavily armed troops poured out, starting with three "Leopard" 2A7V tanks, and on top of the tank stood a middle-aged man wearing a black trench coat and powerful force.

"Yo, Night Thirteen, I'm Old K. "

This sentence came out of the mouth of the other party, and then resounded through the loudspeaker throughout the entire long corridor.

Night Thirteen stood still: "You have only one choice, get out of the way, otherwise more people will die." "

"NO~NO~NO~" Old K shook his head: "I'm not here to fight with you, on the contrary, I'm here to propose a deal, a deal that is beneficial to both you and me, how?".

"Hmph, do you think I'll still trust you after everything I went through?"

"The so-called belief is in terms of what both sides need. I can promise that all the losses and casualties you have caused before will be written off, and that you can do whatever you want in this world under the protection of the Kingdom of Britain. Whatever happens, we will have the support and protection of our government. And in exchange, we only ask you to ......".

"Ask me to die for the Britannica, right?".

"Night Thirteen, you speak very bluntly, I like it. But in our British expression, it would be called service, which is a service of equivalent exchange. You are from Dongtu, so you should understand it very well, right? Isn't it natural to give everything for the country?"

Ye Thirteen snorted coldly: "Yes, as a native of China, you have to give everything for the country, whether it is money, status, reputation, dignity, or personality...... and even the lives of oneself or the parents of one's wife and children...... Everything is insignificant in the face of national interests. But you have forgotten what the state is made of? What is the meaning of the existence of the state? What I have always believed in is that I can die for the country of my will, but you cannot order me to die for the country! In particular, you cannot kidnap my will, my friends, and my family !! on the condition of the interests of the country."

Old K tilted his head, as if to understand Night Thirteen's logic: "Night Thirteen, you're right. But your logic only applies to ordinary people, and you ...... My friend, you were born extraordinary and are not destined to be an ordinary person. "

Ye 13 laughed loudly: "Your sophistry is indeed more than one grade higher than George's! What is an ordinary person? If even I can't get rid of the situation of being kidnapped by national interests, even more so an ordinary person can't stay out of the situation in front of the iron fist, right? Which of the people of the Wano Country and the German State during World War II was not kidnapped by the four words of national interests? In the end, they ended up as collective cannon fodder?!".

Old K stopped talking, he was surprised that Night Thirteen was logical and quick-witted, and it was not something he could deal with at all.

"Night Thirteen, I solemnly hope that you had better think about it, this is the best deal I can offer you. "

"Old K, you know in your heart that this is not a deal at all, but a threat. I'm afraid that if I don't agree, I'll face the armed forces of Britain with their fangs, right?"

"Night Thirteen, you know better than anyone else. From my personal standpoint, I don't want to see you an enemy. You should understand that there can be many enemies in this world, but it is not wise for the same country to be enemies. "

"I am already an enemy of the Shamanism, and I am not far behind the kingdom of Britain! Not to mention that you snakes and rats are in a nest, and you are in a mess, if I don't make a move, someone will have to clean you up sooner or later!"

"You!!...... Sure enough, the yellow pigs are unreasonable! Since you want to die so much, ......."

Before Lao K's words were finished, the meaning of the final breakdown of the negotiations had already been conveyed, and a loud bang was heard, and the three "Leopard" 2A7V tanks fired a salvo first, and a terrible fire broke out!

In half a second, the cannonball whistled sharply, and in an instant, it crossed the end of the corridor!

Night Thirteen let out a low sigh and took a steady step forward.

Boom boom boom !!

Violent firelight and shockwaves burst in mid-air, turning into a chaotic wall of wind that swept through everything!

Immediately after that, all the artillery and guns began to output wildly, and the tongues of fire, smoke and explosions stretched in a straight line, like a sea of mountains and continuous sweeps in the direction of Night Thirteen.

Night Thirteen's location was completely enveloped, and the scorching energy exploded one after another, and one flame after another and light intertwined into a large chaotic shockwave, mixed with thick dust, breaking through in all directions.

The

roars of commanders at all levels resounded in the battle channel, and they had all witnessed the skills of Night Thirteen in the surveillance video, so they would not stop until they had finished pouring their ammunition.

Everyone was afraid of the counterattack of the yellow man in front of him, because once he was allowed to make a move, I am afraid that no one here would be able to leave alive!

Old K jumped out of the tank and got into the armored car behind him, his face pale.

George, who was sitting opposite him with a sad face, whispered, "Mr. K, ......."

"Shut up!" Old K roared, he raised his fist, and just as he was about to slam the bridge of George's nose, there was a noise from the cab in front

of him

"Sir, the command from above is to retreat. "

Old K's expression changed: "Reinforcements have arrived?"

"Yes, they are on direct track and are expected to arrive in thirty seconds. "

Old K exhaled slowly, glared at George, and said in a low voice, "Raise the highest level of red alert." From now on, the base will be closed, command will be handed over, and all non-combatants will be evacuated immediately. "

"Yes!sir!".

The black pressure infantry team began to retreat, and the baggage troops were pressed by three "Leopard" 2A7V tanks and dozens of Boxer wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, while continuing to suppress the shelling and blockade with machine gun fire, while slowly retreating.

Within twenty seconds, the heavy troops of the base had all withdrawn from the battle line, and the three huge hexagonal mechanical doors at the end slowly closed.

No, they weren't completely closed, and each of the three doors left a narrow opening, just enough for an adult to pass through.

Night Thirteen, who had been covered by the fire of an entire army, stepped out of the smoke and dust, unscathed, and his eyes were focused.

He looked straight ahead, feeling three strange auras that were rapidly approaching.
