The Death Knell

Chapter 254 Being hunted

After dispatching the street surveillance team, the three of them couldn't always squat in the alleys. Compared with the less perfect concealment, it was better to walk around the streets openly.

"Activities in the German-occupied areas are actually not difficult. As long as you don't feel guilty and behave naturally, there will be no problem."

Su Ming led the two of them walking on the street, facing the oncoming German soldiers without even taking a look at them. The more he showed a clear conscience, the safer he was.

What matters is not whether you speak German, but that you perfectly imitate the inner arrogance of the Junker nobles and the superior pride of the Hydra officers.

The airships in the sky cast large shadows on the ground, which was why it always felt cloudy. The light on the streets seemed to be blocked by these giant beasts in the sky, and a depressing feeling spread in the hearts of the three people.

But the street is not a place for talking and discussing. The doctor's Brooklyn accent will be revealed as soon as he opens his mouth, so Su Ming quickly chose to sit down at a cafe on the side of the road.

This is a crossroads, with a good view. It is very convenient to retreat in any direction. Moreover, there are not many people here, so you can find a secluded place to talk.

There are many cafes in Paris, just like the beer halls in Berlin.

Perhaps before the war, this cafe with a view of the Eiffel Tower would have been a holy place for love in the minds of many boys and girls. However, at this time, those sitting in the cafe were basically German officials sitting upright. .

Even when they go out to drink coffee on vacation, they are like robots, sitting meticulously and drinking as much coffee as if they were measured with a measuring cup.

Su Ming whispered a few words to the boss in French, and he changed into a French Marseille accent.

"Give me and my friends a quiet place, away from the Germans."

The owner of the coffee shop glanced at him, as if he understood something, and without saying much, he led a few people to the balcony on the second floor.

There are a few small tables here, facing the park at the corner of the street. Although the balcony is a bit narrow, there is not a single German here.

It was a nice place. After ordering coffee and snacks, Su Ming took a closer look at the surroundings.

It is currently safe and there are no surveillance or listening devices.

"Okay, Monaco, where is our goal?" We originally planned to take a day off, but now Paris is not suitable for tourism at all, so let's get down to business.

The sun would set in about two hours. If possible, Su Ming hoped to get things done tonight.

Monaco took out a rabbit from his pocket, put it on his knees and stroked its snow-white fur, took out the seal with his other hand and started to cast the spell.

After a while, he strangled the rabbit to death, raised his coffee with trembling hands and took a few sips.

"Our target keeps moving... If I'm not mistaken, this piece of Paris is somewhere above our heads."

As he spoke, he put down his empty glass and pointed at the sky with his finger.

There were countless airships, like a dense swarm of bees.

They are layer upon layer, constantly moving, and on the ground, only huge shadows can be seen.

It was impossible to tell which airship the fragments were on.

The airship has a large carrying capacity and can fully afford a laboratory, and it does not need to land for supplies for a long time.

There are not many tactics the three of them can choose now.

The first is to find out where the airships are docked, wait for them to land and supply supplies, and let Monaco lurk aside to sense them. After discovering the target, Su Ming directly makes a wave of unparalleled infiltrations.

The disadvantage of this method is that it is too passive. If the enemy uses a method similar to aerial refueling to replenish each other and prevent the airship laboratory from landing, it will be blind.

And for the rabbits of Holloway, this is also doomsday news. Once the divination magic is released, a rabbit will die. There are hundreds of airships in the sky. Let them all land again. The rabbits of Holloway Reserves may not be sufficient.

The second method is for the three of you to fly up to the sky and actively search for it. You can do this with the magic floating cloak, which will save more time.

But the problem is that in this case, it will be Su Ming who has to fight the flying saucers in the air. The airship also has self-defense firepower and radar, so it is impossible to operate quietly.

Once a head-on battle begins, it is easy to cause the airship to crash. If the pieces of Namor are destroyed, it is okay to be missing hands and feet. What if the destroyed piece is the head?

The third tactic is to make a big splash, such as blowing up half of Paris. At that time, the Germans will definitely transfer Namor's "fragments" for safety reasons, and the laboratory airship will leave on its own, and Su Ming will use it again. Cloak chased after him. This was the least labor-intensive method, and he and the others could still hide in the dark.

However, this method also has problems, that is, in the city of Paris, the buildings in it are of historical value. Even the Germans are reluctant to bomb them. If they are destroyed in Su Ming's hands, it will always feel like destroying cultural treasures.

Another point is that Su Ming did not bring so many explosives. This is the fundamental factor...

While drinking coffee, he thought silently. These tactics were all feasible, but there were still trade-offs in the details.

How to pay the least amount of labor and achieve tactical goals.

"There are fluctuations of magical energy, I can feel it." Monaco stopped what he was doing and looked down the balcony. The magic floating cloak also poked out a corner from the box Su Ming was carrying, indicating that it also felt it. Arrived: "It seems that my spellcasting just now attracted the German warlocks. They are like bloodthirsty hounds. They will swarm at the slightest smell of magic."

"We are safe for the time being. They did not lock down the specific area and were just wandering around on the street." Su Ming saw a group of strangely dressed people walking through the street, holding strange magic weapons like water detectors in their hands. A small stick kept spinning in the hand of one of the warlocks.

But they did not find the exact location of several people. There were too many people on the street, which disrupted their exploration.

"You said that the Germans still have a wizard force, but don't most mages not like to participate in mundane things?" Holloway put his hand on the handle of the gun in his clothes and looked into the distance.

Monaco threw a small snack into his mouth and watched the warlocks disappear at the street corner: "They are warlocks. It is said that they are fused with the blood of hell demons. They are not qualified sorcerers. They can cast some spells, But more often than not fighting with guns.”

"Oh, it doesn't sound particularly dangerous." Holloway also picked up the snack and started eating it.

"Their strength is that they are sensitive to magic. They are always searching for magic items for their head of state, or looking for sacrifices for the demon master behind them. I bet that they have already explored the wormhole in Paris when we reach it. Well, it’s only a matter of time before they find this place.”

After saying that, the mage smiled and poured the snacks into his hat, then put the hat on his head and motioned for the others to leave quickly.

Su Ming sighed, the coffee was pretty good, but he still had to move covertly first, and wait until he had a more stable footing before planning the next step.
