A black SUV broke down in the snow.
This SUV was extremely well-maintained. Its entire body was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the endless snow. But the front cover of the car was a big scratch, but it seriously damaged the beauty of the car. This scratch was very new, as if it had been wiped out for some reason recently, and it was filled with an unspeakable smell.
There were three men in the car.
The driver of the car was a middle-aged man, each hair no larger than 1cm. He was very energetic as he stabbed towards the sky. His rough face and chin were covered with stubble. This green beard was like a hard thorn. Anyone who looked at it for a long time would feel pain. He was puffing on a cigar, which was almost finished. So the man swallowed and let the tiny bit of cigar fall on the gray snow.
He kicked the door open roughly, and the lock on the door could not withstand the force of the crack that seemed to have been struck by a rhinoceros. The entire car door flew out, creating a s.p.a.ce of about ten meters before finally cras.h.i.+ng into a pile of snow, splas.h.i.+ng out a snowflake.
The man was wearing camouflage tactical clothes. He stepped down from the car carrying a metal box that was almost as tall as he was. The long black military boots directly sank into the pile of snow, and only a small section of it was cut out.
"Mr. Bauer, you don"t have to be so angry. After all, the snow was so thick that it was natural for the car to break down. It would be better to think about what we"d do on our way back if you dismantled this car. " In the car, a thin man with pale skin said with a smile.
This man wore a thin windbreaker. His hands that were exposed were as thin as dried wood. Green veins crawled all over the back of his hands like earthworms. His smile was very sick, but the man"s eyes were very special. He had a pair of dark green eyes, but the part of his pupils was bright yellow. Those eyes were evil, like a demon"s.
"Shut up, Gunnar. After you finish your task, you can grab a car that you can walk in the snow, or you can just walk back with your mother"s legs! " The bearded man didn"t seem to be in a good mood. When he yelled at the white man in the car, Gunnar Belle, he felt like spitting on his face.
Gunnar smiled and whispered, "Rough Russian."
"If we have to hurry, I think we should hurry up."
Then came a grim voice, not very loud, but quite clear in the ears of the Russians and Gunnar. The voice seemed to come from the wind, seeming to come from somewhere very far away. It was very special.
It was the voice of the third person in the carriage. He was wrapped in a long black robe, and even his face was buried in a black hood. From the center of the hat, all you can see is darkness.
"As you wish, Master Dom." As he spoke, Gunnar opened the back door and jumped out. From the looks of it, he didn"t want to be with the black-robed man that he called Master Duo Mu.
The three of them were the high-level warriors of Parkland"s corporate family. They were also the a.s.sa.s.sins who were sent to Asgard by the elder Brent of Parkland to deal with Zero. Saurun"s death was not a small blow to the Parkland family. Besides the fact that Saurun"s potential in the Elemental Domain could help him grow into a high-level esper, Saurun"s death was no doubt a slap to the family.
In any case, Zero had to die. As a result, when old Brent received the information about zero from the dark merchants, he immediately a.s.signed three people, including the Russian Bauer, to travel as far as Asgard to a.s.sa.s.sinate zero.
Among them, old Brent contacted the No.4 VIP who provided the information through the connections of the dark merchants, and used a large amount of the mainland"s currency as a cover to get the mysterious a.s.sa.s.sin sent out by the corporate powers.
The three of them who had been sent out by Brent had their own unique features.
The Russian Bauer who jumped out of the car first was a great swordsman of the seventh step. Swordsman specialized in swordsmans.h.i.+p, strength enhancement, and agility enhancement. The specialty of this profession was to focus on the balancing act of sword arts, strength and agility. It could be said that this was a job for Berserkers who were wandering around, as well as for Swordsmen who were on par with Feng.
However, the sword Qis were different from the wind pressure slashes, which caused shockwaves by vibrating the air with power. The sword Qis had a higher density of energy, which determined the sword Qis attack range was higher and penetration power was stronger.
As for the sickly skin color Gunnar, he had the ability to mutate. However, he was different from the common Beast Mutation users. Günabel was a Plant Type esper. In the cla.s.sification of mutated species, the most common type was the beast-like beast type, such as the Iron Armoured Rhino. In addition, there were also plants, materials, and energy types.
Like Gunnar, he was a th.o.r.n.y man of the plant element. Ninety percent of his body was able to turn into thorns, and when Günabel fully utilized this ability, he could even turn into a th.o.r.n.y forest. As a result, Gunnar"s combat radius was the widest of the three, and he was also capable of fighting in most situations.
The last was the mysterious black-robed Dom, whose origins even Bauer and Gunnar did not know. The two only knew that he was an esper hired by Parkland, and that he was a dark puppeteer of the seventh step. Dark Puppeteer was one of the rarer jobs in the Elemental Region. Besides having the affinity with the dark elements, Dom was also an expert in a variety of spells, thus combining his abilities as a Dark Puppet Master.
Domirov was adept at using spells and the power of the dark elements to create puppets with extremely high battle prowess. He was the only one who could fight in most environments other than Gunabel.
The fact that the Parkland tyc.o.o.n sent out these three family"s senior fighters could be said to have made a huge sum of money. If Suo Lun"s death hadn"t dealt such a heavy blow to the family, the stingy old Brent wouldn"t have used these three people for the sake of a single mercenary in the wilderness. After all, any one of them was a valuable a.s.set to the family.
The main person in charge of the operation was Bauer, and for a mercenary Bauer, though he disliked Gounabel, he disliked the mysterious Dom. However, in the face of a mission, all his personal preferences were listed in his mind. With the priority of a quest, he was displaying the quality of a professional. Bauer looked at the two men getting out of the car with disgust, but he still took out a palm-sized tactical board from his pocket.
This is a pocket-sized tactical board that Parkhuram Chase has developed on its own, which reduces some of the unnecessary work capabilities of the average tablet brain, so as to be easy to carry and work efficiently.
Bauer"s finger tapped a series of b.u.t.tons on the screen of the brain. After typing in a series of commands, a map of the plane was opened in the brain. Red lines marked the best route for the Bauers to reach the Cossack base, including the best way to calculate the possible staffing of Asgard.
After the Russian had decided on his course, he said to the two men behind him, "Let"s go!"
Thus, the three of them followed the route set by the intellectual brain. At this time, the way the three of them moved forward also reflected their different characteristics.
Bauer directly used brute force to open up a path in the snow, and the strength gained from stepping past the fifth step made him look like a tank. Wherever he pa.s.sed, the snowdrift cracked and split, and he was forced to make a clear path through the snow by the force of Bauer"s advance.
In the meantime, Gunnar had transformed a few th.o.r.n.y tendrils from his legs, and they plunged into the snow in front of him in groups of three. After splitting the pile of snow, they moved aside to make room for Gunnar to move forward.
As for Duo Mu, his method was strange, and a faint black light floated around his body. The moment the hazy black screen touched the snow on the ground, the strong radiation from the snow would disappear without a trace. But every time a part of the snowdrift disappeared, the black light on Dom"s body grew a little heavier. After walking like this for a while, the black light on the Indian"s body almost covered his figure.
Just like that, the three of them used their own ways to make their way out of the snow. If one were to look from the sky, they would see three twisted marks on the snow-white ground.
While he was busy walking, Duo Mu"s hooded head suddenly jerked up, which was wrapped in a black light. Flames like electric flowers suddenly appeared in the darkness of the hat.
Bauer and Gunnar sensed that something was wrong, and they all looked in the direction of the Cossacks" military base. However, there were only goose-like snowflakes dancing in the sky. However, their gazes pierced through the snow and landed on the edge of the horizon.
At first, the horizon was a vast expanse of snow. There was nothing special about it. However, the crowd became more and more nervous, and a moment later, a ball of light appeared in their line of sight.
The milky white light was swaying like flames as it came from the horizon, continuously expanding in front of their eyes. It wasn"t until they were half a distance away that they could see a woman flying over with a spear in her hand.
Her speed was so fast that the tip of her foot lightly touched the ground, causing her to glide a distance of more than ten meters on the snowfield that made it difficult for people to advance. The snow reached up to her knees, but it was unable to slow her down. She was like an angel riding the wind as she charged towards the three of them with unparalleled power.
She is Valkyrie, the G.o.ddess of war of Asgard!
According to their information, other than Valkyrie who matched up with the woman in front of them, Bauer and the others could not find a second possible character. The Russian"s face changed dramatically. He turned to Gunnar and shouted, "It"s the War G.o.ddess of the Hall of Heroic Spirits. "d.a.m.n it, Gunnar, you better get going. Dom and I will hold her back!"
Hiding his face in his hood, Duo Mu spoke, "To be able to hold off a powerhouse of the ninth step with two of the seventh step, you have to be prepared to pay with your life."
Even though he said this, he had no intention of leaving.
At this time, there was less than a thousand meters between them and Valkyrie!
