The demons

Ordinary people should shy away from heroes.

Imagine if you were a soldier struggling to survive on the battlefield and your commander suddenly announced that he was sending the best troops to your position. How would you react?

You should be afraid, because the best troops will only be sent to the most critical battlefields, and the most critical battlefields are often the worst places in hell.

When the citizens see the Unnamed, they wonder what disaster even deserves the Unnamed's regress.

On the night of March 24, the Hub Era 77

Ashed enters the advance post under the noise of the crowd and surrounded by the iron guards.

In a clearing between several tents, a dozen iron guards are overhauling their weapons and armor modules. At the other end of the clearing, a squad of 10 iron guards were putting the finishing touches to what seemed to be their mission. Judging by the number of bomb-proof vehicles parked outside, the guards inside the base and in the square should be all the guards present.

In other words, the Iron Guard sealed off the entire area for two hours, but did not send any troops into the restricted area to check the situation.In other words, they had no idea what kind of disaster was taking place inside the exclusion zone.

Almost all the guards stopped what they were doing and watched him as Ashed passed through the base. Apathy, hatred, gratitude, joy, doubt, disgust, contempt...All kinds of contradictory eyes are like colored paint poured on Ashed's body. Ordinary people to see this scene is estimated to be on the spot because of dyspnea and faint, but the gray face is still hanging a light smile.

"You're new?"In the process of walking side by side, Ashed noticed that the inspector has been gazing at him.

"Yes, yes!My name is Anxian. I have been on the job for just one month and I am still a probation inspector."

Ms. Anxian 's efforts to tie her silky black hair into a neat ponytail and wear dark tights under her dress uniform did little to mask her fresh-faced look.

"Well, then it really must be the first time you've met a Unnamed member.Why, is it different from what you expected?"Surrounded by the iron guards, Gray looked calm and did not feel nervous at all.

"Just feel, counselor Ashed some too, EMmm, young?"After some hesitation, Anxian chose to ask the question.

"Oh.I see.After all, for those on the outside, the Great Outbreak ended 10 years ago."He understood Anne's question.

The Unnamed is the hero who saved the world from the outbreak, which ended 10 years ago.Therefore, the youngest Unnamed members should be in their late 20s, while Ashed is only in his early 20s.

"What do you mean, for people outside?"Anxian is keen to capture the key message in Ashed's discourse.

"SHH!"Ashed made a shiver gesture, then smiled slightly.

"Oh, I see!"Anxian realized she had asked the wrong question.

Judging from her handling of the riots, She is young but methodical and has a clear grasp of the main aspects of the conflict.Anxian was a smart person, and Ashed loved smart people, so he intentionally leaked some important information to potential "collaborators."

After walking into the largest tent, Ashed saw the central beam hanging on the huge "ball of light".The contraption, shaped like a ballroom light ball, is actually a holographic projector.On the ground directly below the installation stands a three-dimensional miniature of the exclusion zone, and even the pipes underneath the block are marked.This "map" is a visual representation of the commander's capabilities on the ground, with each lean watch filling the tactical model with as many intelligence points as possible.However, this model is empty, indicating that the Iron Guard is ignorant of the internal situation, and the supervision in charge of the field command must be a wastrel.

"~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~" a strange sound came from a corner of the tent.

Follow the sound to look, Ashed found the other end of the tent seems to have a lump of things.Fixed eyeball a look, Ashed discover that is a crouching in the deck chair, covered with a thick blanket, only that piece of fat face exposed in the outside of the "person".

"Inspector!Inspector Ding!"As if sensing the embarrassed expression on Ashed's face, Anxian quickly stepped forward and kicked Ding's recliner.However, the guards in charge of transporting Ashed did not seem surprised by their boss's gaffe, as they lined up on either side of the entrance as they escorted him into the tent.

An Xian as a probationary supervision is no tactical command, so it seems that the real top command on the scene is that lump of fat.

"Well!"Ding, who was woken up by a sudden shock, heard the sound of broken glass on the side of the deck chair.With the broken bottles, the sickly smell of wine quickly spread to every corner of the tent.

"Yuntai wine, 20, no, 30 years?"With keen sense, Ashed found this bottle of wine is a precious wine.

"Huh?Your boy still quite discern goods?"Fatty suddenly sat up, but his head was wagging, indicating that Ding was still drunk.

"Yes, that's too good to waste."With the movement of the Ashed's fingers, the wine on the ground floated slowly and condensed into a ball.

Subsequently, this mixed famous wine, dust, glass residue of the "beverage group" straight beat in the director Ding that full face of flesh on the face, and even directly the whole deck chair lost balance.Whether it was because of too much meat, Director Ding did not make a sound when he fell to the ground.

"You!You!"

"It seems that adults can become babies if they have a cradle of comfort."The hinge pendant around his waist lit up with a flicker of light as Gray walked quickly up to Dean, and Dean floated into the air surrounded by feathers.

"Ah!""What are you waiting for?" he shouted at the guard behind the ashes.Save me!Shoot him!"

But none of the guards dared make a move.

They may follow orders, but they won't kill themselves.So the Iron Guards turned to their other commander, AnXian.

"Counselor Ashed, although Unnamed guests are honorable, it does not mean that you can do whatever you want."Anxian's tone was stern but devoid of anger.

"Oh, sorry, that was a bit of a gaffe."Since ashed loosened the control of director ding, he fell to the ground again."I'm just a little anxious to see you facing danger without knowing it."

Meta-agents were able to feel the flow of meta-entropy without any instruments, so they understood the world governed by meta-entropy far better than the average human. Although the inside of the restricted area is still calm on the surface, from the perspective of meta-entropy, the inside of the restricted area at this time has been surging.

"What danger?What danger!""Inspector Ding shouted as he finally caught his breath.

"The meta-entropy engine failed. Have you forgotten what that means?How can a single entropy-demon cause a meta-entropy disturbance of this magnitude?"Ashed looked down at Inspector Ding, as if looking at a pile of garbage.

"Outbraek.""The meta-entropy engine in an entire region has completely failed, something that only happens during the Great Outbreak," Inspector Anxian said suddenly.

Ashed gave An approving look, while Ding seemed to disdain her judgment.

" outbreak?Do you have any idea what you're talking about?The Great Outbreak was over a long time ago, and if it was a major outbreak, there's no telling why..."In the middle of the words, director ding finally found the Ashed body of the Unnamed logo, followed by two eyes as if to rush out of the eyes general stare.

The next second, Director Ding's eyes turned white and collapsed.Meanwhile, there appears to be fighting outside the tent.The sounds of powered crossbows, the screams of the guards, and the oozing roar of some monster mingled.

"Yi Ho-ran!What's going on out there?!Answer!"The Captain of the Guards bellowed into the walkie-talkie in a hoarse voice.

However, nothing came from the other end of the walkie-talkie. Even the background noise of the walkie-talkie had completely disappeared.At the same time, the overhead projector stopped working, and all the lights went out with it, just like in a horror movie.

"Damn it!Circle, watch all sides!"The Captain gave his orders in an unmistakable voice.

Immediately, the trained guards turned their backs on each other, formed a circle around the two watchmen and the Ashed, and turned on the searchlight system inside the armor.Every iron guard is focused on all points of spirit, carrying a power crossbow on the alert for all possible threats.

As the outside of the tent fell silent again, all that remained inside was the hiss of the guards' scanners.Instruments protected by refined steel are more resistant to interference than conventional instruments, so the Armor of the Ironguards can keep running even when all the meta-entropy engines around them are shut down.

"Ding ding ding!When the guards were on the verge of survival, a bell rang from the center of the formation, and the guards, in a state of high tension, turned around as if in stress.

"Sorry, it's my terminal."Compared to the high-strung guards, Ashed still seemed like a normal day.He tapped a terminal on his wrist, turned on some kind of communication channel.

Then, with a few words, Ashed extinguished the last hope in the hearts of the Iron Guards.

"yes, they're back."
