It was windy and rainy.
Earlaen and the remaining Atlas masters did not go far. A dozen or so people left the battlefield in the rain, ignoring Yurisses's cold gaze and directly went to a low building near the inpatient department.
The hospital's surveillance room is right there.
Although Earlaen had decided not to join the battlefield, it did not mean that he did not want to know about the situation. Watching the enemy's movements with his own eyes was much more reliable than any other information.
"Father, I still insist on what I said just now. Let's go back and return to where we live. It's safer there."
Cato walked beside Earlaen and persuaded him with a stubborn tone.
He was one of the people who insisted on leaving this battlefield. Apart from him, a few X-class experts from Atlas also wanted to leave this miserable place where cold rain and blood flowed into rivers.
After Atlas had just experienced defeat, every expert in the clan subconsciously felt insecure.
It was clear that this place could not give them such a feeling.
"Safe?"
"What are you worried about? This place is surrounded by the U.S. Army. No one can threaten us," Earlaen said coolly as he glanced at Cato.
"Father, don't you understand? It's because this place is surrounded by the U.S. Army that I'm worried. Although you've become a marshal of the military, our time in the U.S. Has been too short. At least from the looks of it, we're still outsiders to the entire U.S."
Gaztu said helplessly. Because of Adolf, all of them had consumed the Royal Family's weakness potion. Although there were still more than ten experts in Atlas, the effects of the potion had already begun to take effect. The feeling of weakness and powerlessness emanated from his body made Gaztu, who was accustomed to possessing powerful strength, extremely unaccustomed to it.
The key was that this thing was still unsolvable for the time being.
Weakness is said to be poisonous, but it's a combination of multiple toxins, Countless toxins mixed together, Toxicity is mutually exclusive, The result was that it was almost non-toxic. Atlas's antidote had no effect at all. Apart from weakening a little, everyone here didn't seem to have the slightest sign of poisoning. This technique was completely developed by water bottles. It wasn't even in the category of genetic potions, but it was even more effective than genetic potions.
Weak effects, Atlas is not unsolvable, However, if he wanted to unlock the poison, he had to purify the poison from the poisoned person's blood first, analyze it in detail, and decipher it. However, the problem was that even if he wanted to unlock the poison, it would not be completed in a short period of time. It would take at least three days to a week. In this period of time, the weakened person had already recovered, so there was no need to make an antidote.
Therefore, the current situation was that they had to grind their teeth and endure the three days of weakness.
In this case, if the enemy so wishes, They could face a fatal threat at any time. A weakened expert was nothing, let alone tens of thousands of meters. At this time, Earlaen and Yurisses had almost completely fought back. If Yurisses really wanted to kill them, a company of the Rice Army could easily kill them several times.
So there's no reason for Gaztu not to worry.
At the same time as he was worried, the future patriarch of Atlas was furious.
They took the genetic medicine, compromised with the royal family, and placed themselves in extreme danger for three days. All of this was for Adolf's sake.
If nothing happened, then it would be fine. Adolf, as Atlas's core combat strength, had to be rescued no matter what. However, the current situation was that Adolf actually wanted to kill him!
He wanted Lin Xuanyuan to kill him.
In other words, in Adolf's eyes, he was already an enemy.
The enmity of killing a child could be said to be an irreconcilable hatred.
Was there really a need to save such a core combat strength?
Cato subconsciously glanced at Adolf, who was sitting on the chair in the surveillance room. The killing intent in his eyes flashed.
Earlaen did not seem to notice his son's strange behavior and lit a cigarette. He took a deep breath and said, "Are you worried about Yurisses?" This is the least to worry about, Don't forget my current identity. I am the new Marshal of the U.S. Army. Yurisses only handed over the Marshal's epaulette to me a few hours ago. At this time, not to mention Yurisses, even the entire U.S. Dares to do anything to me. That's right, they can do anything to me, and I can't run away. However, it's hard to explain. It's the explanation after I die. We didn't die at Lin Xuanyuan's hands. Many of the soldiers downstairs clearly saw it. At this moment, how should they explain their actions against me? The new marshal of the US army was strangely killed after a fierce battle with the enemy. This was equivalent to declaring the incompetence of the US government and army to the world. This kind of influence was too bad, and no one was willing to bear the consequences. At least in times of war, such an impact would be enough for other wavering countries to reconsider their positions, and Yurisses would not dare to take such a risk. "
"And..."
Yurisses paused for a moment and continued to sneer, "Moreover, Gaztu, you underestimate our value. The United States is about to usher in a war. They are not only facing the Divine Continent Empire, they are also facing the royal family. We are Yurisses's only choice against the royal family!" Don't underestimate our value. Yurisses allowed Wang Fuyu to recover his fighting strength, causing us to suffer heavy losses and lose face? That was just an indication of his attitude just now. Not only did Yurisses not dare to touch us, he also wanted to compensate us. He is asking us now. If we are not here, what kind of war will he have? The Rice Army outside? "They can deal with the Divine Continent Empire's army, but who in the current US can handle those experts?"
Jia Tu raised his eyebrows slightly and hesitated for a moment before whispering, "It's not surprising for people to do anything impulsive in an angry situation. We've already touched Yurisses ' bottom line by not participating in the battle. If Lin Xuanyuan successfully breaks through, I'm afraid Yurisses will lose his mind."
"Bottom line?"
Earlaen chuckled and said mockingly, "He has recovered Wang Fuyu's fighting strength. This has also touched my bottom line. If we don't participate in the battle, what right does he have to be angry about?" Moreover, the United States cannot do without us now. Cato, think about it. A country's president can hand over military power to an outsider without his own nationality. Even if it is nominal military power, it is enough to see how passive, incompetent, and angry this president is? He has no right to do so. "
Cato was silent for a long time before he nodded and said, "I hope so."
"That's how it is."
Earlaen shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Your idea is wrong. Don't forget this is the United States. Where can we go if we leave the hospital?" To the villa area Yurisses arranged for us? So you don't think Yurisses can find us? Or hide somewhere? "It's not like we're wrong. After consuming the Weakness Potion, we don't have the strength to fight. It's helpless not to participate in the battle. But if we hide, we'll be the ones to blame. Therefore, we have to stay here."
"I see."
Cato nodded and said respectfully.
Earlaen didn't say anything further. He sat upright in his chair and shifted the intense scene of the battlefield to the largest central screen. He looked at the battle with a calm expression.
In the picture, Wang Fuyu rushed to the front and instantly killed another special forces soldier from the 75th Ranger Regiment.
Earlaen narrowed his eyes. The hatred in his eyes flashed and he immediately became thoughtful.
"The 75th Ranger Regiment is actually in the third formation, breaking out of the encirclement. This can be said to be the place that suffered the most losses. Interesting."
"Obviously, Without Castroth's protection, Gaddis has become a sacrificed target, This is a tacit agreement between the parties. Caslott was originally one of the top three on our rope-in list. Although the small group he established was small, it didn't have any trash. All of them were in very important positions. All of the forces wanted to swallow it. Caslott was very capable. Unfortunately, he died at Lin Xuanyuan's hands. Otherwise, Atlas was confident that he could fully recover from his injuries.
Cato looked at the screen and whispered. In the screen, teams after teams of special forces rushed up and down. They took turns to retreat, but the momentum they blocked did not stop at all.
"Castroth's eyes are very high. The people he values are almost impeccable. Gaddis is one of the best, and the 75th Rangers are also very elite. Father, I think both Gaddis and the 75th Rangers are valuable in recruiting him. Should we consider taking action? If you are willing to speak, you will surely be able to preserve Gaddis and the 75th Ranger Regiment. "
Cato suddenly said.
Earlaen was stunned and thought for a moment before he slowly shook his head. "No, I don't intend to do that. The 75th Ranger Regiment is valuable, but there's no need to recruit Gaddis, and we can't recruit him."
"But …"
"I know what you're trying to say. Do you think the 75th Rangers won't be able to keep Gaddis alive?" Earlaen interrupted him as soon as he opened his mouth. "I know what you're trying to say. Do you think you can't keep the 75th Rangers alive without Gaddis? That's too easy, The Rangers are the main force of the U.S. Special Forces, Yurisses wouldn't have given up on the Rangers if Gaddis didn't have to sacrifice himself. He just wanted to sacrifice Gaddis. In fact, as long as Gaddis died, Yurisses would have ordered the 75th Rangers to retreat immediately. It wasn't easy to nurture such an elite force. It wasn't something that could be sacrificed casually. "
"If that's the case, then we should protect Gaddis, right? He's not an idiot. I don't believe he can't see through all of this. As long as we can protect him, he will be absolutely loyal to us. Father, a quasi-X-class expert is not worthless. Even for us now, an absolutely loyal quasi-X-class expert is even more valuable."
At a time like this...
Earlaen naturally knew what kind of time Cato was talking about, In today's battle, Atlas' X-class experts shrunk dramatically, If you want to nurture a new batch, it takes a lot of time, That's when Atlas's genetic potion technology was sufficiently advanced, in the case of using water to increase the rate of progress of the cultured subject, and a quasi-X level expert who was only half a step away from an X level expert, It was much easier to nurture. Not only did he save resources, he also saved time. For an expert like Gadis, he only needed to give Gadis a year or two to cross the threshold that countless people would never cross in their entire lives. In fact, he would not consume too much of his potential.
From the looks of it, finding enough loyal quasi-X-class experts to nurture was Atlas' fastest way to recover his strength.
There weren't many drugs that could allow people to break through into the X-class domain in Atlas. Therefore, every candidate had to be considered carefully. Such a person, even Atlas' internal candidates, had to undergo a lot of scrutiny. However, Gaddis was in a special situation right now, so it wasn't difficult for him to obtain absolute loyalty.
"I admit that Gaddis is a good talent, But I still can't save him, Sometimes, We always have to consider Yurisses's feelings and situation, "He has already made it clear that he wants to abandon Yurisses. If we go and protect him, it would be tantamount to touching his bottom line. Even if we do, outsiders will know that our relationship with Yurisses is not very harmonious. In this way, Yurisses's position will be unstable. This will not be good for us, nor will it be in our political interests in the United States."
Earlaen shook his head and rejected Cato's suggestion. "And most importantly, Gaddis might not have thought that he had his own way to solve the problem that we could think of. Now, even if I wanted to save him, it would be too late."
In the scene, Gaddis raised his hand and had already consumed a white powder. Following which, his assistant grabbed his collar angrily. The sound of rain was too loud and the sound of fighting was too intense. They could not hear what the two of them were arguing about.
At this time, Wang Fuyu and the others were less than thirty meters away from Gaddis.
"Their speed is so fast!"
Cato's expression couldn't help but change, and his eyes were a little gloomy.
At first, Lin Xuanyuan's continuous breakthroughs were unacceptable to him, but now, Wang Fuyu, who was at his peak state, was enough to be his strong opponent.
An unprecedented sense of crisis rose in Gaztu's heart. Apart from being nervous, he couldn't help but feel a burst of intense jealousy!
"Everyone will improve. In a life-and-death battle, surviving is the biggest receipt. Don't underestimate Wang Fuyu, he can kill Adelaide without being a supreme being. Isn't that enough to explain the problem? Jia Tu, you have to work hard. You are no longer worthy of being Lin Xuanyuan's opponent. The opponent is already a giant, but if you let Wang Fuyu surpass you, how can I dare to hand Atlas over to you? "You've been too comfortable these past few years, lacking enough life and death tempering. This is your biggest deficiency."
Earlaen said meaningfully.
Cato was silent, but his fists were tightly clenched.
He knew very well that Earlaen was the most qualified person to say such words. His father had both become giants during the life and death battle with the Emperor.
"I will definitely not disappoint father."
Cato said in a low voice, but his expression was exceptionally firm.
"Very good."
Earlaen nodded, but his eyes landed on the screen again.
On the screen, the 75th Rangers were retreating on a large scale, while Gaddis, whose face was flushed red, was charging alone.
His body soared into the air.
The sword light descended.
Earlaen watched quietly and silently said, "The 75th Ranger Regiment's defensive line has been broken."
"There's only one Marine left. As for the last Brave Infantry Division, they're all trash."
Cato looked at the screen and his expression changed slightly. Finally, he sighed softly.
"Trash?"
Earlaen laughed and narrowed his eyes. "Perhaps this trash can be the key to this siege? It all depends on Yurisses . I hope that guy can do something I'm looking forward to."
"What is father looking forward to?"
Cato asked subconsciously, his eyes filled with curiosity.
"I hope Yurisses is crazy enough!"
The corners of Earlaen 's lips curled up, and his smile grew even more intense.
