145. CIA agent Hughes

Hughes lost his trace and disappeared, but it did not affect Zhou Chu's movements when he captured him. He immediately activated his biological perception and immediately found out that the other party's position was behind him.

The right hand was alienated, and the bone blade stretched out from the arm, half-rotated in place, and directly stroked backwards.

The sound of gold and iron fighting sounded in the darkness. Hughes held a black dagger to block Zhou Chu's counterattack and retreated, looking at the bone blade that appeared on Zhou Chu's hand in surprise.

"Evolutionary mutation route?"

Zhou Chu did not answer, but rushed towards Hughes directly. He was unwilling to miss such an opportunity.

But Hughes's reaction was faster than him. Before Zhou Chu rushed over, his figure had disappeared into the darkness. Zhou Chu only had time to capture the sign of the other party's movement at that moment, swung a knife in a certain direction, but it hit the air.

It was not entirely a blow-out, at least it cut through the other party's clothes. However, after Hughes completely disappeared into the darkness, Zhou Chu could no longer capture the other party's traces, and even in the biological perception, he could not detect any signs of living creatures nearby.

Sure enough, biological perception is not omnipotent, it should be some of the abilities of the assassin or the assassin.

Zhou Chu thought for a moment and did not start the initial form immediately. Instead, he held the bone blade and looked at everything around him vigilantly. The biological perception also changed from the original diffusion perception to the condensation perception within ten meters around him.

But he still didn't notice anything. Hughes's breath appeared in biological perception. When he heard the sound of wind in his ears, the other party had quietly appeared behind him. The dagger wiped it towards Zhou Chu's neck with the sound of wind.

If he wants to win this time, Zhou Chu will be injured even if he doesn't die. Although he doesn't know why Hughes dares to do such a ruthless move, he can't violate the content of the contract. If there is no deep hatred, he will not die together like this.

Just talking about it, Zhou Chu still didn't dare to take this knife, and still took advantage of the advantage that Hughes first discovered when he appeared. When his head tilted, the tip of the knife just gently brushed across his neck and cut out tiny blood.

But at the same time, a bone blade had already slipped out of Zhou Chu's left hand. He held it with his backhand and stabbed it in the back.

There was a piercing sound, but the bone blade that Zhou Chu separated this time was not too sharp. So even if it was pierced, it would only cause minor injuries, but there would not be fatal injuries caused by excessive bleeding.

Hughes groaned and took a few steps back, but did not disappear again. Instead, he stood there and looked at Zhou Chu.

"You lost."

"Huh?" Zhou Chu did not pursue, but stood there, "Why are you so sure?"

"Blade of Paralysis." Hughes raised the black dagger in his hand. "The dagger contains toxins that paralyze nerves. Unless you happen to carry a special antidote, or are completely immune to the poison, you will soon paralyze and lose your ability to move as long as you see blood."

"Oh?" Zhou Chu moved for a while. It seemed that he felt a little paralyzed, but soon he laughed again, "Are you sure?"

Hughes nodded: "I'm sure, this paralysis blade, but I spent points to buy it from the shelter. Unless your constitution and nerves are different from that of ordinary people,..."

Speaking of this, Hughes was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face also changed a little: "Evolutionary mutant constitution!"

After saying this, his figure began to gradually disappear into the darkness.

"It's too late." Zhou Chu said. Then, countless bloodshots suddenly shot out from his body, turning into dense blood arrows, heading towards all directions.

Such an all-round and dense rain of blood arrows beat Hughes again, but as Zhou Chu guessed, the direction Hughes was shot was not near his hidden position, but behind Zhou Chu.

Hughes groaned, and just wanted to disappear again, but he found that he suddenly felt as if he had lost all his strength, and he could not use any strength, and his brain was dizzy, causing him to kneel directly on the ground.

"Neurotoxin?!" Hughes asked subconsciously.

"No." Zhou Chu replied calmly, "But there is no way to tell you this one."

There is really no way to tell, because Zhou Chu himself doesn't know how to describe it - the special blood of the blood-red heart. If it can touch the other party's blood, it can temporarily coagulate and slow down, or even stop the other party's blood flow, causing the other party to lack blood-providing functions such as ischemia, anemia, or excessive blood loss, such as fatigue and loss of limbs, dizziness, etc.

"..." Hughes struggled for a while, but he couldn't use any effort, and he was still dizzy after a while. He even felt that he seemed to be deficient in oxygen. After the attempt was fruitless, he said dejectedly, "You won."

Zhou Chu smiled slightly. He was able to defeat an awakened person before he could start his initial state. Such a result has already satisfied him enough.

So he stretched out his hand and summoned blood from Hughes. After the bloodshots penetrated his fingers, Hughes only felt his whole body relax, and after a moment, his body returned to its original state.

"Tell me, what do you know?" Zhou Chu leaned against the ventilation duct leisurely and lit a cigarette for himself.

Hughes stood up and saw that Zhou Chu still seemed to be unaffected by the paralyzing toxins, so he had to say helplessly: "Can I trust you?"

"Trust?" Zhou Chu raised his head and looked at Hughes, "It depends on what aspect. At least for now, we have no conflict of interest. If you confirm this, then you can indeed trust me."

Seeing Hughes still hesitated, Zhou Chu added a few more words.

The first sentence is: "I am willing to accept the loss."

Hughes's expression began to shake, as if he was struggling inside.

Then Zhou Chu said the second sentence: "Our team has fought with Scarry before. It can be said that if the biggest threat is eliminated, Scarry will be our team's biggest enemy, and I think we are the same for them."

After saying this sentence, the expression on Hughes's face finally changed.

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure." Zhou Chu said, "The thin man Ade from Scarry's team was killed by us."

Hughes stared at Zhou Chu for a long time, and finally made up his mind, thought for a while and spoke.

"Have you heard of the Lagb?"

Zhou Chu shook his head.

"The Laggb, a cross-border smuggling group, and arms transactions are spread all over the world. In recent years, it has begun to involve terrorist organizations in the Middle East, South America and Eastern Europe. Its subordinates and branches have many large number of nominal multinational companies. There are signs that the Laggbour seems to be beginning to involve politics..."

From Hughes' introduction, Zhou Chu understood that the so-called Lagb company, in short, is a large criminal group that mainly focuses on arms smuggling and supports terrorist activities as a side business.

Then, what does this have to do with Hughes, or rather, with the Nightmare World?

Zhou Chu looked at Hughes and waited for him to give him an answer.

"Scarry, his name is not Scarry, but Meyn Grett, the only son of the head of the Lagb group, I was following him to the Silent Hill world."

"I have many questions," Zhou Chu said, "Can you answer them one by one?"

"able."

"How do you know Scarry's identity?"

"We have been staring at the Laggb group for a long time. Our undercover told us that Scarry seemed to be active in a nightmare world. You know, we have records and specialized people in charge of this kind of mystery and phenomenon. Then we found a guide who asked him to select several people who meet the criteria and can enter the nightmare world between us, and I am one of them."

"Who are you?"

"CIA agent, as for my real name..." Hughes hesitated for a moment, as if considering his identity, it was difficult for the other party to do anything, but he said it, "Agent Matt Hughes."

"The last question is, how did you come to the Silent Hill world? Logically speaking, it should be randomly selected for new people."

"Dream Breaker," Hughes replied, "Even Scarry sent them in through the Dream Breaker, who seemed to have come for some purpose, so I think that no matter what purpose he is entrusted with this temporary alliance of Awakening."

Zhou Chu has understood and figured out Hughes's hostility source, thought for a while, and then nodded.

"I understand. Then, what do you want to know from me next?"

"The captain of the team I am in, Pilner's whereabouts, is also a CIA agent."

"Dead." Zhou Chu replied directly, "I saw that they wanted to seize something, but they were killed by the guards in the hospital."

"Things?!" Hughes first showed a surprised expression, but soon resisted the urge to grab Zhou Chu to ask the truth, "Have you heard them say what that is?"

"They are talking about a lot of items. Can you give me some tips?" Zhou Chu looked at Hughes.

"..." Hughes thought for a while, and then Zhou Chu added, "Don't worry, I am Chinese in reality, so you also know that as an ordinary person, even if I know what you want, I can't match up with the institutional power of a country."

Zhou Chu's sentence seemed to convince Hughes, and he thought for a while and replied.

"The Eye of Truth."

What was that? Zhou Chu quickly recorded the name of the item, then shook his head: "No, what they want to snatch, it seems to be something."

"Blood-red heart?!" Hughes thought for a while and asked this sentence in disbelief.
