The Death List Novel - Chapter 153
Chapter 153 Xudra Of Heracles
Although Qin Lun and Grant had Lily and Little Lotus guiding them through the underground passageway, they hadn’t actually reached their final destination. The area where Lily and Little Lotus were located belonged to the core of the Allied Unconventional Strength Research Institute, and the Super Warrior Project’s laboratory was just the periphery.
Based on the situation at that time, Joey and Grant didn’t have the time or strength to break through to the core area, and eventually stopped at the outer laboratories. Although the strength of the Gentlemen’s Alliance was not enough to fight against the Justice Alliance, the Alliance army did not dare to neglect it at all.
The “Gentlemen’s Alliance” was still able to successfully obtain the “Super Warrior Plan” under the double attacks of traps and spies. Skorzny and the others even broke through to the real hiding place of the three leaders, giving the Alliance army a loud slap in the face.
In this situation, the Allied forces no longer dared to underestimate the Gentlemen’s Alliance. Not only did they tighten the blockade in Casablanca, they also quickly escorted away the leaders of the three countries and important figures from the Institute of Unconventional Forces.
However, some scientists who were seriously injured in the shelling were unable to withstand the long journey of aircraft and warships, and could only use the most stable army to send them to the port of Ceuta in Morocco, and then cross the straits to enter the neutral Portuguese country to recuperate. Among them was Albert Einstein, whom the Gentlemen’s Union regarded as a major target.
Actually, this was also part of Qin Lun and Grant’s plan. The two murderers had already anticipated that they might not be able to break through to the core area where Einstein was, so they asked Lin Feng to fabricate false information. Lied about intercepting the Allied telegram and adding Einstein’s pathology report to the laboratory data.
As the only surviving messenger, Lin Feng was unlikely to be suspected. The laboratory of the Super Warrior Project itself was the highest technological force for postgraduate study, so it wasn’t surprising that Einstein’s pathology report appeared here.
As expected of the two great murderers, Skorzny and the others easily accepted this false information that could only come from the apostles.
“No, Stark, the target we are going to attack is second only to the leaders of the three countries. There are probably many super humans around us. Only by concentrating all of our men can we hope to win!” Scolzny said solemnly, “Leave the research data of the super warriors to the intelligence officers here to bring the submarines. The Gentlemen’s Alliance and Hydra will attack together!”
“Alright, if that’s the case, then let Hydra’s army doctor treat the wounded first, and then we’ll set off directly.” Baron Stark nodded his head. “As for the intelligence personnel who carry the research materials, they can wait until we activate them. This way, it will be much easier for them to break through the defense line.”
Although Hydra was not affiliated with the Gentlemen’s Alliance and Stark’s rank was higher than Skorzny’s, the Gentlemen’s Alliance was the main force in this operation, and Skorzny’s status in the Fuehrer’s mind was higher than Skorzny’s. In some ways, at least in this operation, Hydra was in a subordinate position.
Grant’s eyes lit up as the two SS executives discussed in a low voice. He turned to Joey and quietly asked, “Qin Lun? Joey?”
“Joey!” Joey glanced at him and coldly returned.
“Joey? Why don’t you have the aura of a Decomposer!” Grant frowned slightly and hesitated for a moment, but he still felt worried and secretly asked.
The so-called’splitter ‘aura in Grant’s words naturally referred to Joey’s unique killing aura. For some perceptive creatures, this aura was simply brighter than a kilowatt incandescent lamp. It was just like when the creatures at the top of the food chain appeared, the surroundings would be completely silent, and even ants would restrain their cries.
Grant wasn’t an instinctive ant bug, but his perception was equally powerful. He could naturally sense that Joey was different from before. Every murderer would bring with them their own evil aura when they revealed the dark side of their hearts, just like they had their own trademark.
For example, after Grant put on the clown’s human skin mask, his temperament was completely different from what it would be right now, revealing a strange and gloomy aura of joy and anger that was unfathomable. Joey’s aura was like a raging tide of slaughter and death.
Of course, this aura could not be maintained for long. The terror of a murderer depended on his heart, not his appearance. No matter how evil and dark the negative emotions were, there was always a process of accumulation. The horror of a murderer was often due to the eruption of the dark side’s savings.
Once the negative emotions were released, the murderers would no longer maintain their evil aura. It’s not because they can’t, but because they instinctively resist doing so. The reason was very simple. After being in a negative mood for a long time, even a murderer with abnormal mental state would lose his nature and become an unreasonable beast.
Every “successful” murderer has both positive and negative sides. They know how to control and release the demons. In short, they have their own symbols and tools. For example: the clown’s mask, the dissecter’s two-sided personality, Hill’s shepherd theory and so on.
“Why do I have to have the aura of a ‘Decomposer’?” The corners of Joey’s mouth were wide open, revealing a mouthful of shiny white teeth, like a cunning wolf bared its teeth.
Grant narrowed his eyes, concealing the surprise in his eyes. It wasn’t surprising that the murderer could change his aura, but Joey Foster was rumored to be Qin Lun’s negative personality that was born to protect him. It was essentially the same as his human skin mask.
If Joey could control the murderous demonic aura as he wished, the amount of information hidden in the Decomposer’s words would be enormous. There were several possibilities. No matter what the truth was, it was probably not a good thing for the other person, Ge Qinlun.
“You don’t have to guess randomly. Qin Lun and I have coexisted for so long like twin babies. It’s not difficult to disguise each other’s temperament!” Joey seemed to have noticed that his performance just now was a little too much and added coldly.
Grant nodded. He didn’t say anything, but his thoughts were surging. Joey’s explanation just now reminded him of more. Even the clown realized that Qin Lun was easier to deal with after witnessing Joey’s violent side. However, if Joey could restrain his aura and disguise himself as Qin Lun anytime, the situation would be different.
“Come over and take a look!” Skorzny discussed with Stark for a while and called them over.
“This is a three-dimensional model created by Lady Monica according to the topographic map provided by the intelligence personnel.” Scolzny pointed at the sand model in the middle of the room and explained.
This three-dimensional model was a steep valley with a steep terrain. Above it was a railway bridge that spanned both ends of the valley and was about a hundred meters long. The canyon winds and winds, and beneath it is a swift stream of water.
The surface of the stream was as wide as a large river, but the reason why it was called a stream was because the water was not deep, and the deepest part was less than two meters. The water quality of the stream was clear, but because of the great difference in the terrain of the canyon, the flow of water was extremely fast, and there was also a large waterfall at the front of the canyon that had a fall of 30 meters.
The Gentlemen’s Alliance was about to launch an attack on the Alliance army, and Skorzny and Stark decided to launch a surprise attack on the Alliance army after discussing with each other.
The terrain here was dangerous and the army was unable to launch. It was the most suitable place for a small number of elite special operations. If it weren’t for their limited time, there would have been almost no survivors if they had buried the explosives on the railway bridge and detonated them by Captain Burke.
“You must be careful when fighting. Although there are streams under the railway bridge, because the water is not deep enough, there are rocky rocks on both sides and underwater. Even if we fall, our chances of surviving are low.” Skorzny reminded everyone solemnly.
“Sure enough, I chose this place as my attack location!” Grant and Lin Feng secretly exchanged glances. “Lin Feng, inform Xiaolian and Lily to prepare them mentally.”

The main storyline branches of Heracles that had already appeared were all suffixed with Heracles’ twelve “impossible tasks”. The Golden Apple naturally referred to the “Super Warrior Project” obtained by the Gentlemen’s Alliance, and Hydra was rumored to be the Hydra. Of course, this hydra did not refer to the hydra army led by Baron Stark.
“Legend has it that Heracles had an ally, Iolaos, when he was fighting Hydra, and we had Baron Stark and the Red Skull to help us.” Lin Feng suddenly spoke on the guild channel. “It’s worth noting that Hydra also has a giant crab monster as an ally. Could it be that apart from the Righteous Alliance, we will also encounter other superhuman organizations?”
“That’s possible!” Hearing this, Grant turned to look at the silent Joey. He remembered the chain mission the Decomposer had received-“Deadly Enemies of Greene”.
Although Casablanca brought together the odd men and men of the entire Alliance, not every superhuman truly belonged to the “Alliance for Justice”. Like the Gentlemen’s Alliance, other than Captain Burke and Skorzny, the odd warriors like Lady Monica and Baron Weidenberg would leave the Gentlemen’s Alliance after this incident.
Taking this as an example, if Green Academy appeared on the target army, they would probably clash with Joey for the sake of “Green’s Deadly Enemies”, causing even more trouble for the Gentlemen’s Alliance.
To the Gentlemen’s Alliance, this was bad news, but if it was used well … The corner of Grant’s eyes quickly lifted up on Joey’s back, and a strange light flickered in his eyes.
Joey, who had his back to Grant, lowered his head slightly. The corner of his mouth curled into an undetectable grin.
