Chapter 133 Lies
Chapter 133 Lies
Is it a decision to fight to the death after realizing you can't shake them off?
Or was it premeditated?
Levy is assessing Hermann's reaction.
But less than a second later, Li Wei gave up on this idea.
Because it's not very meaningful.
Just test the waters.
Li Wei immediately pulled off the last stun grenade and threw it out.
After hearing the loud noise, Li Wei did not hear any screams.
Ran!
Li Wei instantly reached a conclusion and immediately slipped out from behind the wall.
However, he saw Hermann.
The guy was holding a gun, crouching behind a toppled wooden coffee table, adjusting the muzzle of his gun.
Fuck!
Li Wei cursed under his breath. He never expected that he, who was always the one scheming against others, would be the one scheming against by Herman.
He used his heels to stop his momentum, leaned back, and used the momentum to spin his waist and ankles, like a top, and returned to the cover in a second.
Amidst the crackling gunfire, bullets added several more holes to Li Wei's already tattered trench coat.
After answering the call for cover, Li Wei showed no relief at escaping death. Instead, he immediately pulled out the fragmentation grenade he had prepared "just in case" and pulled the pin.
He didn't throw it away immediately, but held it in his hand and silently counted down the seconds.
One.
two.
three!
With only a second to spare before the explosion, Li Wei threw the fragmentation grenade.
"boom!"
The grenade exploded in mid-air, sending a barrage of shrapnel across the entire area.
That bastard Hermann is going to be crippled or dead!
Li Wei confidently and boldly dashed out.
The scene he saw was pretty much what he had expected.
Herman lay in a pool of blood, his once white captain's uniform now stained crimson, and several wounds on his torso were still oozing blood.
However, Li Wei was certain that the guy was still alive.
Aside from his still-heavy chest, Levi had done his calculations before throwing the fragmentation grenade.
Most shrapnel will be stopped by the coffee table. Some smaller shrapnel with stronger penetrating power will pass through the wooden tabletop, but after being cushioned, they will at most cause serious injury.
It won't delay the questioning.
But just as Li Wei approached.
Almost simultaneously, Hermann, who had been lying on the ground and appeared to be unable to resist, suddenly opened his eyes, picked up his gun, and fired at Levi.
Li Wei paused for a moment, then instinctively pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
"Da da da!"
The AK-47 gunshots rang out almost simultaneously.
But AK-47 bullets travel at a faster speed.
This difference of about 0.01 seconds is negligible in most cases.
However, in this exchange of fire where the two men were firing almost simultaneously, an extreme situation arose.
Li Wei was shot in the right arm first, and the instinctive spasm caused the shotgun muzzle to rise almost imperceptibly.
Then, a dense barrage of deer bullets shaved several furrows into Herman's hair at a distance that grazed his scalp.
Li Wei instantly loosened his right hand, releasing the shotgun's grip, and used his upper arm to push against the butt of the gun.
After the shotgun was immediately reloaded, Li Wei slightly loosened his left hand on the handguard, and the entire gun slid down the web of Li Wei's left hand as if riding a slide.
As Li Wei gripped the gun handle with his left hand, he pulled his hand back to his waist, changing to a position where he held the gun handle with his left hand and gripped the handguard with his right hand.
Enraged by the repeated betrayals, Li Wei decided to leave no survivors.
As for the matter of "Victor Cross," he could seek other leads.
All he wants now is to kill that bastard Herman Claude!
So, when Levi pulled the trigger this time, the muzzle of his gun was directly aimed at Hermann's head.
Li Wei's movements were fluid and took less than a second.
"Bang!"
Gunshots rang out.
But Hermann rolled behind the coffee table before Levi could pull the trigger.
However, most of Li Wei's precise waist shot hit the ground.
Yes, most of them.
Levi witnessed at least three buckshot lead pellets strike Hermann in the back.
That's the spine; a normal person would be paralyzed even if they didn't die there.
But Hermann completed the tactical maneuver.
He was pierced from the front by shrapnel from a fragmentation grenade and hit from the back by a lead bullet fired from a shotgun, but this bastard is still alive and kicking?
What the heck? Does he also have "creation and regeneration"? Is he also a "cheater"?
This situation shocked Li Wei.
However, before Li Wei could figure out what Herman was, the other party revealed some information to him.
"You were also a test subject of the 'Super Soldier' program? Right? You were also modified by nanobots! It must be! We should be on the same side, not fighting amongst ourselves?"
Super Soldier? Comics or Games?
This was the first thought that popped into Li Wei's mind.
But as the phrase "nanobots" came to mind, Levi couldn't help but think of that... evil god.
Lawrence Chambers!
Then, the phrase "Holy Body" immediately followed.
"Super Soldier? A degraded version of the Sacred Body?"
Li Wei tentatively asked a question, after all, the two were indeed somewhat similar.
Li Wei guessed correctly.
"You actually know about the 'Holy Body'? You're also one of Victor Cross's men? Why haven't I seen you at the experimental base?"
This is somehow actually related to Victor Cross?
However, Li Wei thought for a moment, "Victor Cross seems to be a member of the Restoration Society as well?"
Not surprising then.
Seeing that Herman seemed to have misunderstood something, Levi decided to play along.
"Since you know you're a guinea pig, you should understand one thing."
The purpose of the experiment is to "stabilize the application".
In a lab overflowing with "consumables," do you think you'll ever encounter a "finished product"?
Hermann fell silent.
But this silence is like the flow of magma before a volcanic eruption.
"Fuck it! I knew it! How could that old bastard Victor Cross so easily use such powerful stuff on us common soldiers! Consumables! We're just consumables! Just like bullets and screws!"
At that moment, the anger and fear of being a "guinea pig" erupted like a volcano.
Li Wei achieved his goal.
So, the next step is to press the attack and expand our gains.
"Yes, we are all 'consumables,' consumables for achieving the 'sacred body.'"
Li Wei suddenly changed the subject.
To show "friendliness," he even stopped approaching and lowered the muzzle of his gun.
"us……"
Herman couldn't help but repeat the phrase.
Then, he tentatively popped half of his head out from behind the overturned coffee table.
Seeing this, Li Wei opened his arms and placed them on either side of his waist.
Judging from his posture, it seemed as if he wanted to embrace Hermann.
"Okay, it seems there's been some 'misunderstanding' between us."
"Since we're both dealing with consumables, I can recommend you to join our organization."
"But the prerequisite is that you demonstrate your value."
"Do you understand?"
Li Wei's casually made-up lies seemed to be under some kind of spell, captivating Herman's heart.
He felt that he might be able to survive.
There might even be a chance to join an organization that can stand up to the Revival Society and Victor Cross?
