The Death List Novel - Chapter 167
Chapter 167 Harvest
The two murderers’ judgments were correct. Not long after they left, a group of superhumans from the Justice Alliance arrived at their approximate location.
There were only twenty of them left in the Allied Armored Forces, including twelve superpowers and eight scientists. The leader was Indiana Jones.
Doctor Archaeology’s handsome face was fuming with smoke, and there were even a few blisters. The cowboy hat on his head was nowhere to be seen, but his eyes were still as resolute as before, and there was a trace of heavy sorrow in the depths of his pupils. In his hand was a large silver thermos bottle and a pitch black tattered object, as if it was a piece of iron torn from somewhere in the carriage.
“Dr. Jones, do you want to search again?” A superhuman walked behind him and asked softly.
“No need. We’ve searched three times and there shouldn’t be any survivors. This place is not safe. We still have a responsibility to send the remaining scientists and uranium 235 to the Allied stronghold!” Dr. Jones looked at the large thermos bottle in his hand and shook his head.
“Jones, what does he want to do? I don’t think it’s a good idea to hand him over to the Allies.” A ferocious superpower fiercely stared at a human body under his arm. “If it wasn’t for him stalling Director David, that damned Nazi Gerhardt would never have had the chance to detonate the train cannon!”
This was a lean man who was currently in a deep coma. Although his body was bloody, he could still recognize Leo Robert’s face. The giant did not die at the hands of Dean David, nor did it die at the hands of the Big Bang. It became the captive of the Justice Alliance again.
‘”We can’t kill Leo Robert privately. Since Dean David didn’t kill him, but captured him, then we should respect Dean David’s decision before he dies and hand him over to Green College!” Jones shook his head and said in a deep voice.
“You’ve done him a favor!” The ferocious superhuman remained silent for a long time before finally saying hatefully.
“It’s not his fault. He’s just a sad patriot. His wife died at Gerhardt’s hands again. Now she’s probably going to give up on Nazi Germany!” Jones sighed and looked at the pitch-black piece of broken iron in his hand. “When he wakes up, give him the piece of blood-colored iron with the words’ Gerthardt ‘. He should be able to recognize his wife’s handwriting.”
“Dr. Jones, they want to leave!” Another superpower pointed at the fairy-tale girls who were walking towards Jones.
‘”Liv, you” Dr. Jones frowned slightly and sighed as he looked at the red and swollen eyes of the girls.
Although the Gentlemen’s Alliance was unlikely to return from the current situation, it was still not the time to disband. He would like the fairy-tale girls to stay until the Justice Alliance protects the remaining scientists and uranium 235 back to the nearest Alliance stronghold.
However, Green College had sacrificed two people in succession, and even Vice Dean David was buried in a big explosion to protect everyone. Jones was really speechless.
This huge explosion was not something that human beings could withstand, even those with superpowers. Twelve of the fifteen members of the Righteous Alliance would never survive. At least most of them would die in the explosion, let alone scientists.
It was only at the final moment of the explosion that Director David, who could have escaped, chose to stay behind and explode his Vector Domain with all his might. In the direction where the Justice Alliance had escaped, the explosive power was slightly weakened, allowing them to survive and preserve the isolation bottle containing uranium 235.
Dean David was not the only one who showed his noble character in the big explosion. Dr. Oppenheimer, head of the Manhattan project, and several older scientists also chose to stay on the train.
Dr. Edward Taylor, who teased Dr. Oppenheimer, was actually another important person in charge of the Manhattan project. Oppenheimer was referred to as the father of the atomic bomb, while Dr. Edward Taylor was referred to as the father of the hydrogen bomb.
The atomic bomb is actually different from the hydrogen bomb in that the former is nuclear fission and the latter is nuclear fusion. Coupled with Oppenheimer’s communist tendencies, the two had deep contradictions at work. However, they were all scientists after all. At the critical moment of life and death, these gaps finally dissipated.
…
A week later, a villa in the suburbs of Munich, Germany.
“Guys, good news, the Fuehrer’s medal has been issued!” Lieutenant Colonel Scorzini waved the telegram in his hand and walked into the hall.
“Wow, Gerthardt, you’ve been promoted. You should be called Captain Gerthardt now!” Weidenbailer, who was pale, smiled and handed the telegram to Qin Lun.
The vampire baron had returned to Munich a few days earlier than them, and with the help of the SS secret service at all costs, Weidenbaylor had finally escaped from life-threatening danger and returned to human form from the vampire bat.
“Didn’t you also obtain the Iron Cross Medal that you dreamed of?” Qin Lun raised his glass and smiled at the baron.
“It can’t be compared to your Knight Iron Cross!” Captain Bork, who was standing at the side, flattened his mouth and pretended to be jealous.
“Captain Gerhardt!” Skorzny suddenly straightened his body and took out an exquisite brocade box from his bosom.
“Arrive!” Qin Lun pretended to be serious helplessly. He raised his head and straightened his chest, his hands pressed against his thighs, and stood up straight.
“Captain Gerthard Heinrich, in view of your outstanding contribution to the empire during Operation Heracles, I hereby present you with the Knight’s Iron Cross. I hope that you will honor this honor and continue to serve your country as an imperial soldier in the future.”
Scolzny wore an iron cross with silver oak leaves and crossed swords in front of Qin Lun’s chest solemnly. The moment the medal was put on, Qin Lun suddenly blinked his eyes. A trace of surprise flashed through his bright light gray pupils.
At the same time, Grant, who had also been awarded a First Grade Iron Cross by Scolzny, looked at him in surprise. The two exchanged meaningful looks.
During the attack a week ago, not only did the Alliance’s armored army explode, but the Hydra Army’s ordinary special forces were also wiped out, and almost only a small number of them escaped. Of course, the Red Skull and Baron Stark, who were superpowers, were not among the victims, and the members of the Gentlemen’s Alliance also escaped.
Originally, Lin Feng, Lily, and Little Lotus were exhausted, so they suggested that the temporary team return to the Broken Star Sky.
However, the two murderers, Qin Lun and Grant, allowed everyone to stay. This was not only because they wanted to use the Third Empire’s medical technology to recover their bodies, but also because the two murderers were keenly aware of the rewards given by the Third Empire. There might be unexpected changes.
However, Qin Lun and Grant had never expected that such a change would actually appear on the Iron Cross Medal. They had originally thought that it would be some kind of material reward that could bring them into the shattered starry sky.
Among the Gentlemen’s Alliance that had obtained significant results, two of them had obtained the Knights’ Iron Cross. One was Lieutenant Colonel Scorzini, who was in charge of the operation, and the other was Qin Lun, who had made an “outstanding contribution”.
Grant was also a contributor to the Super Warrior Project during Operation Casablanca. Baron Weidenberg almost died at the hands of the Holy See’s cardinal to cover for the Gentlemen’s Union. Together with Captain Burker, the two of them obtained the First Grade Iron Cross.
What was worth mentioning was that Lin Feng had obtained the Second Grade Iron Cross with the Sandstorm Queen because of his contribution to intelligence. As for Xiaolian and Lily, because of Lin Feng’s testimony, they had obtained the Third Grade Iron Cross Medal because they had concealed the information of the Late Armored Army in the research materials of the Super Warrior Project, as well as their tactful tactics at the last moment.
Qin Lun stretched out his hand to stroke the Knight’s Iron Cross Medal on his chest, and the detailed description of the medal in the death list appeared in his mind.
Knights’ Iron Cross: Special treasure of the world, Sub-Legendary Medal of Honor (partial seal), Intermediate Grade 3 item, bound to Apostle 70053, can be unbound after paying a large amount of Contribution Points and Apostle Currency.
Level 2 Halo of Honor: Medal Passive Skill. After wearing the medal, the halo automatically takes effect. Based on the apostle’s Laws body, it increases the apostle’s physical fitness by 10%, increasing the apostle’s power by an active skill.
Iron Will: After wearing the medal, the apostle is partly exempt from mind control skills. This algorithm is based on the apostle’s perception and the enemy’s mind control skill level.
Third Grade Mana Source: (Sealed).
Unknown Passive Skill: (Sealed).
[Prompt: After obtaining this item, the apostle is not allowed to receive any additional rewards for exploring this world. The rewards for world origin plundering will be erased.]
[Item Notification: The Knight’s Iron Cross Medal can only be unsealed and upgraded in this world and its parallel spacetime.]
Qin Lun exhaled a mouthful of turbid air when he saw the description on the death list.
This medal had actually reached the Sub-Legendary level. Although the last two skills were sealed and could only display half of their power, the two passive skills that had appeared were not only incomparably powerful, but also suitable for practically all mission worlds. As expected of its Sub-Legendary level.
Even if the world exploration reward was erased by the shattered starry sky, Qin Lun believed that even if he obtained one or two Dark Gold items from the reward, it might not be more practical.
In fact, the fact that Qin Lun was able to obtain this part of the sealed sub-legendary item was already an “extra care” for the shattered starry sky.
If it weren’t for Qin Lun’s exceptional performance in the previous two missions, he would have earned a lot of contribution points. The increase in apostle level far exceeded the increase in one’s own abilities. Just two quests from another world had almost reached the second level of apostle level. It was very difficult for the Broken Star System to arrange for him to possess Gerthard, the storyline character.
One had to know that the premise for Qin Lun to obtain the Knight’s Iron Cross Medal was not only that he had made outstanding contributions in this operation, but also because Gerthardt already had a First Grade Iron Cross Medal.
Although the First Grade Iron Cross Medal was not a special treasure, the Broken Star Sky had also paid a price in terms of law for turning the Knight Iron Cross Medal into a special treasure. This could only be explained by “extra care”.
