Chapter 792 No One Suits The Task More Than Me
Lucia wanted to calm Sophie down. However, before she could speak, knocks were heard.
August asked the person to come in. A man came in, face deadly pale, and reported, "Captain Adams, trouble in the frontline."
Lucia's and Sophie's faces both turned pale. August hurriedly blocked the women's view and the man continued, "They cracked the password of the basemen of Griffith. Everyone inside is now their hostage."
Basement!!
Lucia furrowed her brows and asked immediately, "That's where you kept the children?"!"
The man nodded with a serious look.
Poor children were detained in the basement. Flynt said that they were forced to test the novel "Dingus ".
They suffered the impact of the drug and were at the edge of insanity. Before anyone could find a way to cure them, Flynt could only detain them in the secretive basement.
Moreover, only with the drug remaining in the kids' bodies could they find a way to completely quit the drug. Griffith couldn't lose them.
The kids were what concerned Lucia, and were the reason why she and August devoted themselves to the organization.
We must settle them down asap. Once the drug shows its effect, the consequences will be disastrous." She darted eyes at August, hoping for a resolution from him.
August clenched her hand tighter and comforted with a firm look. He hurriedly walked out of the makeshift house and said deeply, "Any news from inside the Griffith?"
Lucia and Sophie exchanged eyes and followed August out.
"They suffered great losses from Captain Jones, and are now requiring us to exchange the hostages with our team members in the frontline." Said a subordinate, his voice less and less confident.
Everyone knew that it was exchanging their comrade-in-arms' lives for the guinea pig's lives.
A cloud of smoke floated over the second ring of the battlefield. Joshua was all covered in dust and dirt. When he saw August, he was stunned. "It's dangerous here. What are you doing here? Get back!"
Lucia was stunned by the scene in front of her, and her heart was almost in her mouth. She never imagined that modern battles could be so cruel.
August told Joshua the latest news.
The atmosphere got heaving and cold. Joshua couldn't help smashing the console under him and swore, "Damn. They want hostage, then I will be their hostage!"
"Captain Jones..." Several comrades immediately surrounded him and tried to persuade him, "You can't go. Who will guard the frontline if you become their hostage?"
"They want hostage! And I will be their hostage!"
"We can live without us, but we can't without you."
Joshua looked stern and resolute. He, after a short hesitation, roared angrily, "You? With your skills? You want to court your death?!" "But you've been fighting against them all those years and they hate you. They will definitely torture you if you just send yourself to their den!" Said August.
As he said so, he approached Joshua slowly. He then said coldly, "Aren't you courting death if you choose to be their hostage?"
Joshua answered gloomily, "We can't just abandon the people in the basement. We need to get them settled as soon as possible. Time is ticking! There is no better way."
August said word by word, "I want to see what kind of person could be so capable enough as to break the defense of torture Griffith."
He sounded so calm as if he didn't take this matter seriously. But Joshua knew that August was being extremely serious.
"i« |
He put his hand on August's shoulder and shook his head slowly, "August, you've never participated in any of our operations. You don't know how they treat hostages. You're gambling with your life recklessly."
Til go!" A crisp voice sounded.
Before the sound faded away, Lucia and Sophie walked into the tent and approached the men. "Everyone is indispensable. Let me go. I am an idler."
The tent was so silent that only the rumble from outside could be heard.
August looked Lucia up and down.
Lucia's smile was on the brink of melting away, Joshua finally realized what had happened and shouted at the two women, "Who allowed you to come? You shouldn't be here! Get back down the mountain!"
