Chapter 195 Silver Ghost
Valley of the Wolves, Spain.
Somewhere in a village with simple folk customs, on a pile of stones that looked like an altar, several men in black robes pushed a blonde woman with European and American faces onto the altar.
A huge piece of parchment was hung on the circular arch behind the altar, and a strange pattern was painted in the middle of the circular table - it looked like a longhorn beetle, or some kind of insect.
Except for the two "high priests" beside the altar, all the people in black robes covered themselves tightly, even their faces were covered with cloaks, leaving only their eyes exposed.
They all clasped their hands together and clenched their fists, muttering some strange "spells" and looking coldly at the blonde woman on the altar.
The believers also drew a pattern on her forehead with blood, the same pattern as the one on the parchment.
The blonde girl, with her hands and feet tied and her mouth blocked by a cloth, could only watch helplessly as the "high priest"'s hand moved across her bloody chest, neck and forehead.
From her perspective, the upper half of the "high priest's" face was obscured by the shadow of his robe, and his specific appearance could not be seen clearly.
But from the scars on their faces and their gray complexion, she could tell at a glance that these believers were not human.
It can no longer be considered a "human being".
One person held her head, two people held her legs and feet, and another person behind her raised an axe and aimed it at her neck.
Although she saw it all through her peripheral vision, the days of torture had left her with no strength to resist. She could only make desperate "woohoo" sounds in her throat and twist her body continuously.
My companions have been killed, and now it is finally my turn...
As the voices of the believers chanting became louder and louder, the axe that was raised high suddenly fell down.
Swish - pfft!
A large amount of blood flowed from the altar, staining the stone pile below the altar red, and the stone carvings similar to the ones on the parchment.
The "TerraSave" badge that the blonde was holding tightly in her hand also dropped.
After the "sacrifice" was completed, the chanting of these black-robed believers came to an abrupt stop, and they turned around and left without even dealing with the corpses.
Immersed in madness, they didn't know that the real catastrophe was about to come.
……
Days passed, and more than ten days had passed since the president's daughter was kidnapped.
Since the day Ashley was kidnapped, the outside world has lost all contact with her.
Her bodyguard team was found more than 200 kilometers west of Amherst, but Ashley was still not there.
The phone call couldn’t be reached, the surveillance couldn’t find the person, and the bodyguards would rather die than surrender.
President Graham, worried about his daughter's safety, became increasingly anxious. He mobilized the entire CIA intelligence department and turned almost the entire United States upside down, but still could not find any trace of Ashley.
The gang that kidnapped Ashley didn't know what they were going to do, and they didn't even reveal any requests for hostage exchange to the White House.
Fortunately, things took a turn for the better.
A week ago, two climbers and members of TerraSave's civilian arm disappeared in Spain's Valley of the Wolfs.
Before they were completely cut off from contact, they sent a message back to headquarters saying that they had seen "a blonde girl in a brown coat and long boots" in a remote village.
When the news reached the White House, President Graham immediately dispatched the CIA to investigate, and received confirmation that "several people had witnessed the target's appearance."
Unfortunately, none of the CIA agents who went to the Wolf Valley mountains returned.
The CIA was complex and difficult to control, and sending troops directly into Spain seemed like a big move, not to mention that President Graham's prestige in the military was not high.
The task of rescuing Ashley finally fell to the USSS special agent organization directly under his management, whose full name is "Anti-Umbrella Pursuit and Investigation Team."
And because an insider in the White House was involved in the entire process of Ashley's kidnapping, the USSS will send two "new faces" who rarely appear to participate in this rescue mission.
Although this is just a kidnapping case and has nothing directly to do with anti-biological activities, President Graham currently has no better choice.
Wait...it seems like it is not impossible?
FBC and TerraSave, two anti-biological organizations that were in the midst of the Cold War, almost simultaneously requested President Graham to participate in the rescue operation.
But...the White House never revealed the news of Ashley's kidnapping to the FBC.
Their hands are stretched a little too far.
This important task naturally fell on TerraSave, which had already made great contributions in finding Ashley.
Someone smiled as if their evil plan had succeeded, but I didn't know who it was.
……
September.
With the help of Yak, Leon and Elliot came to TerraSave Air Force Base in the suburbs of Philadelphia for the first time.
Outside the base, the two looked at the wall, which was not very high but not very tall either. The shock in their hearts was self-evident.
In fact, it is just the barbed wire commonly seen in military restricted areas, with a few signs saying "No Photography".
The only difference is that these barbed wire fences have a raised round "mushroom" on the ground almost every 200 meters.
And as Jack's private car approached the base, the two "mushrooms" next to the base gate rose up on the spot, and the two were able to see their full appearance.
The hemispherical "cap" looks somewhat like a human brain; the two six-barreled revolver Vulcan cannons mounted on both sides of the "stalk" tightly lock the vehicle.
Fortunately, until the vehicle entered the base, those "bold mushrooms" did not open fire and retracted their fire.
The base is also very busy. Various helicopters, fighter jets, and fighter-bombers are undergoing emergency inspections and maintenance in preparation for the upcoming "Eagles Rescue Plan."
Under the subsequent guidance of Yang Ren and Claire, the two successfully entered the armory in the air force base.
Their goal this time is - the Kendo brothers!
"I can't believe it, Nicholas, you know the Kendo brothers but you didn't introduce them to me. That's really not nice of you."
"But it's good... moving here saves me and Elliot from running to the West Coast every now and then."
Seeing the two brothers busy modifying guns in the armory, Lyon poked Yang Ren with his elbow and joked.
In response, Yang Ren just smiled and passed it off.
Claire felt something was wrong, but she didn't know what it was, so she didn't ask.
As early as during their training, Leon and Elliot often visited Joseph Kendo's gun shop in San Francisco.
There is no doubt that they both knew that Robert Kendo was still alive but did not tell Yang Ren.
Hold a grudge!
Getting down to business, Leon and Elliot placed their guns on the table.
One is a VP70, the other is an M9; both are old buddies who have been fighting since the Raccoon City era, and have experienced Operation Javier and many investigation operations.
"Another commission for you, Joseph."
"Time is running out, and you two brothers are the only gun modification masters we can trust."
"—What?! Someone changed the gun without me?!"
As soon as Leon finished speaking, Andre interrupted from nowhere.
"Go away. What does modifying a gun have to do with making a gun?"
Despite saying this, Yang Ren still let Andre stay.
After the two told Joseph their needs, after some thought, Joseph felt that "Samurai Blade" was a good match for them.
The former Raccoon City Police Department STARS team all used the Samurai Blade, which was also his masterpiece that he had fully trained.
But as they chatted, he seemed to realize the heavy responsibility on Leon and Elliot's shoulders.
In addition, Elliot originally used the M9 pistol, which had a mediocre reputation, so it seemed like it was time to give him something new.
Leon and Elliot are both agents, and their weapons need to perform reliably in extreme environments such as mud, water, and dust.
Therefore, the Umbrella Weapons Development Department used the HK USP9 pistol as a prototype and developed the MUP pistol specifically for special operations as their basic firearm.
All this information is in the Red Queen’s database.
Andre even had nothing to do and made two as toys, so he had the basic firearms.
Finally, with the joint efforts of the Kendo brothers, the new gun "SG-09R" was produced within a few hours.
The moment they got the gun, Leon and Elliot's anxiety in recent days was relieved a lot, and the results after the test also made them quite satisfied.
The new gun uses a double diamond muzzle brake, making every shot of the gun easier to control.
The sliding sleeve adopts a silver-grey polymer coating, which has excellent corrosion resistance, reduces friction resistance, and has an excellent pulling feel.
The retained tactical rails can also be equipped with various tactical equipment, which is extremely practical.
In the shooting range, Joseph suggested to Leon and Elliot, who were looking at their masterpiece as if it were a treasure:
"Why don't you give your favorite gun a nice name?"
The two of them looked at each other and hissed for a long time but couldn't come up with a good name.
Finally, Yang Ren, who couldn't bear to watch it any longer, suggested: "How about calling it 'Silver Ghost'?"
Looking at the muzzle brake and slide flashing silver, the two suddenly realized:
"Yes, that's it!"
