Living in North America, working from 9 to 5

Chapter 204 Another Hellhound dies!

"Who is it?" Roy stared at K-Hound three meters away.

"If you want to know, you have to beat me first!" K-Hound laughed evilly again, and his facial expression became more and more weird.

Judging from the way he spoke, his voice and facial expressions, it was obvious that this guy was not a normal person. Irina was right. The survivors of the Oserbaiya Project did have psychological problems.

"In that case..." Roy held a dagger in each hand, took a step forward and rushed forward.

K-Hound blocks with his dagger.

A tinkling sound was heard.

Roy's proficiency with the dagger is full, and he can definitely be called a dagger master. He is not at all inferior to K-Hound in close combat with the dagger.

The daggers of both sides collided several times. K-Hound realized that Roy's strength was much stronger than his, so he began to use the method of leveraging force to block Roy's attack.

Roy's attack was very fierce. He was not afraid of being injured at all. Even if his skin was scratched by the dagger, as long as it was not a fatal injury, with the blessing of the recovery attribute, it would not only heal quickly but even no scars would be left.

With his super reaction ability and eyesight, Roy can see K-Hound's movements as if in slow motion. He doesn't even need to use fast speed to easily resolve K-Hound's counterattack.

In this situation, K-Hound had no chance of defeating Roy in close combat. He fought and retreated, his eyes becoming solemn.

K-Hound felt Roy's fierce attack, and his counterattack did not require the opponent to use any clever force to resolve it, but he could directly use his own powerful strength to take it head-on.

"You are very strong!" K-Hound said as he accepted the attack.

"You're fast too!" said Roy.

K-Hound was less than 1 meter away from the wall behind him. If he was forced into a dead corner by the opponent, it would be the end of him.

He swept across Roy's neck and Roy blocked it with a dagger.

Taking advantage of this gap, K-Hound feinted, seemingly moving to the left but actually to the right, quickly widening the distance between himself and Roy.

"Your talent..."

As K-Hound retreated, he sent daggers flying at Roy.

Roy also threw out the dagger in his hand, and the two daggers collided with each other, making a "ding" sound.

The second dagger followed.

Roy used a dagger to deflect the oncoming dagger.

K-Hound pulled out two more from his waist.

Roy rushed forward quickly, pretending to close the distance between them.

He knew very well that this guy was just stalling for time.

K-Hound was also very smart. He knew that he could not defeat Roy in close combat, so he wanted to keep the distance and use throwing knives to delay time.

"goodbye!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Roy quickly retreated and ran straight towards the metal door.

When it comes to psychological control, Roy is definitely not inferior to anyone. Since you, K-Hound, are stalling for time, I'll just leave and see if you catch up with me.

Seeing Roy was about to run, K-Hound narrowed his eyes, his expression changed slightly, and he immediately shouted, "Don't you want to know who killed Asmodeus?"

"I will investigate it myself later!"

Whizzing--

The two daggers were inserted into the gap of the metal door again.

K-Hound stepped on the wall, used the force to jump onto the distribution box, kicked off with his legs, and pounced straight at Roy.

Roy turned around to avoid K-Hound's attack and grabbed out with his right hand. Since the opponent was in mid-air at the moment and couldn't use the force to dodge, Roy's right hand accurately grabbed K-Hound's neck.

With a little force, Roy threw his body heavily to the ground. At the same time, he thrust the dagger in his left hand forward and pointed it at K-Hound's eyes: "You lose!"

Looking at the dagger tip so close, K-Hound laughed out loud: "Hahaha, Roy, you are really strong. It's not unfair that N-Hound lost to you. But I'm curious, how did you do it without any special training?"

"This is not your concern. Tell me, who killed Asmodeus?" Roy asked.

"Okay, yes..." At this point, K-Hound suddenly pulled out the dagger from his waist, exerted force on his wrist, and threw the dagger out.

Roy quickly turned his head to look in the direction where the dagger flew, and saw a soldier holding an AK and aiming at this side had his throat pierced by the dagger. As he fell, a gunshot rang out and the bullet hit the ceiling.

At the same time, two more soldiers rushed out. Roy threw the dagger in his hand backhandedly, and K-Hound also threw out the second dagger.

The two daggers pierced the faces of the two soldiers almost at the same time.

[Throwing: Throwing proficiency +1]

Suddenly, a grenade appeared in their field of vision.

K-Hound pushed Roy away, quickly stood up, knelt on his knees, facing Roy with his back to the grenade, used his body to block the trajectory of the grenade fragments, and at the same time showed a weird smile on his face.

"NO!" Roy shouted!
boom--

The grenade exploded five meters behind K-Hound.

The shrapnel produced by the explosion hit K-Hound's back. Although his body was hit by several fragments, he did not move at all, and even no sound came out of his mouth.

Roy quickly got up and ran straight to the direction where the grenade was thrown, rushing into the aisle in the middle of the distribution room, and gunshots rang out at the same time.

A few seconds later, a head rolled out.

Roy, covered in blood and panting, reappeared in front of K-Hound. He began to check the injury on K-Hound's back.

Cough cough--

K-Hound coughed twice and said, "No need to look. I can feel the blood in my body draining away quickly. It's internal bleeding."

Kneeling on one knee in front of K-Hound, Roy's expression was extremely solemn, his eyes fixed on K-Hound's: "Why did you save me?"

K-Hound knelt on the ground with his knees, but his body remained standing. He raised the corner of his mouth and coughed twice, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth: "Ahem... they are right, you are indeed important. At least at this point in time, you cannot die."

"You are all crazy!" Roy frowned.

Cough cough--

"Aren't you crazy? Haha!" K-Hound laughed, "Do you have a cigarette?"

Roy frowned: "Still want to delay?"

After saying this, Roy pulled out a shriveled cigarette box from his trouser pocket, took out a cigarette, put it in K-Hound's mouth, and lit it.

Then he lit one himself.

"Hehehe! It's good to delay for a while. This is my mission!" K-Hound took a puff of cigarette.

"If you don't stop me, no one will die!" Roy said.

“Heh!” K-Hound snorted and laughed, his voice becoming intermittent. “I died… twenty years ago. My life… was given to me by my sister, so naturally I have to give it back to her…”

"What do you mean?"

Roy held K-Hound's shoulders.

"Nothing... ahem..."

"Tell me, who killed Asmodeus?"

K-Hound's face became paler and paler, and there were large spots of blood near his knees: "Who wants the gift the most?"

“A lot of people want to get the gift.”

K-Hound forced a smile and said, "Who is closest to the gift?"

"organize?"

K-Hound slowly closed his eyes and nodded slightly, "Yes!"

"Who in the organization?"

K-Hound murmured, "Number 1 is your mother. With her race, she was not qualified to sit in that position... Organization... Ahem... Before the organization was established, she saved Asmodeus three times..."

K-Hound's condition is getting weaker and weaker.

His voice got lower and lower: "Among the founders of the Asmodeus system, six died at the hands of No. 1..."

Roy nodded slightly.

K-Hound still insisted: "If it weren't for Asmodeus's favor, the one sitting at No. 1 should be No. 2..."

"You mean, it was No. 2 who killed my parents?"

K-Hound used his last bit of strength to grab Roy's arm, pulled out the last dagger with his other hand, put the dagger in Roy's hand, and stared at Roy with his eyes.

Roy looked at the dagger K-Hound handed him.

This dagger is obviously different from other daggers. The blade is hollowed out, and the wooden handle is engraved with K-Hound's name, birthday, and blessings. There is also a code name at the signature: A-Hound.

"Ahem...please keep it safe for me..."

Taking the dagger, Roy nodded vigorously.

"Hehe, hahaha, my mission is accomplished!" K-Hound laughed weirdly again.

He slowly raised his head, looked at the ceiling, and murmured:

"The holy light washes away sins, and the soul will eventually be free. Evil cannot make the apostles surrender. The holy messenger will eventually bring light and freedom to mankind, and the iron will will become a new hope..."

Looking at K-Hound whose heart had stopped beating, Roy felt mixed emotions and couldn't understand anything.

I can’t understand the obsession in the hearts of the New Hope Apostles.

Holy light cleanses sins, and souls will finally be free...

Light and freedom...

This is?

Who is righteous and who is evil?
Is there any difference?

No. 2…

At this moment, Roy's mind was in a mess. He was deeply in self-doubt and felt that he was not qualified to talk about justice and evil.

Too many people died at his hands.

In this world where interests are paramount, who is qualified to talk about justice and evil? Everything is just about interests and desires.

Roy stopped dwelling on the question and slowly stood up. After one last look at K-Hound, he turned around and opened the metal door.

Shortly after Roy left, a dozen of Makarov's men entered the switch room, and the soldiers saw K-Hound kneeling on the ground with his head hanging down.

The leading soldier walked up to K-Hound, took off his hood, revealing his scarred face, slowly squatted down, stretched out his hand, and lifted K-Hound's jaw. Suddenly...

His soldiers began to fall in large numbers.

The man looked surprised and stood up suddenly: "Who?"

As soon as the word "who" came out of his mouth, a red line suddenly appeared on his neck, and then his eyes widened, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

With a plop...

The soldiers fell to their knees, their heads falling off their necks, and more than a dozen soldiers fell to the ground and died in less than two seconds.

The shadow appeared beside K-Hound and inserted the samurai sword into the knife magazine. The shadow knelt on one knee to check on K-Hound's condition, then gently touched his right ear with his right index finger and said, "K-Hound, dead."

After he finished speaking, the shadow picked up K-Hound and left the switch room.

Roy continued along the passage.

On the way, there were constant gunshots...

Right now, in this huge underground air defense facility, there are four forces exchanging fire. There is no alliance and they are all killing each other.

On the way, Roy easily dealt with a group of Slavic-speaking soldiers. It was not difficult to tell from their clothes that these people were soldiers under the general.

Passing through the soldiers' rest area, Roy arrived at the mess area.

There were sounds of fighting coming from inside.

Looking inside, Roy frowned slightly:
"Anna..."

In the abandoned cafeteria, Anna was fighting with three strong men.

But the next second, one of them put a gun to Anna's head.

The clothes these three men wore were different from those of other ordinary soldiers, and the weapons in their hands were not Soviet-made weapons, but standard weapons of the Peking University Team.

If Roy guessed correctly, these people should be mercenaries.

The mercenary with a crew cut walked up to Anna, removed the dagger stuck in her thigh, and then threw it aside.

Reaching out and pinching Anna's cheek, the short-haired mercenary lifted it up and looked at Anna's beautiful face with a wicked smile: "You are very beautiful."

The other two mercenaries stepped forward, lifted Anna up on both sides, and placed her directly on a dining table against the wall.

The crew-cut mercenary stepped forward and tore off Anna's coat.

The three mercenaries laughed wildly at the same time.

"As long as you behave yourself, I promise not to kill you!" said the crew-cut mercenary as he unbuckled his belt.

Roy clenched the dagger in his right hand and slowly opened the metal door.

The mercenary with a crew cut had just taken off half of his clothes when Anna kicked and hit him in the crotch, and a cracking sound was heard!
The mercenary with a crew cut collapsed to the ground, howling: "Ah! Kill her for me!!!"

Without giving the mercenaries on both sides time to react, Anna used two fingers to pierce the eyes of the mercenary on the left, turned her body to the right, and avoided the opponent's gun.

bang bang-

Two bullets hit the mercenary whose eyes were poked out.

Anna knocked the opponent's pistol away, locked his throat, quickly flashed behind him, climbed onto his back, and used a naked choke to strangle the mercenary's neck.

At the same time, the mercenary with a crew cut whose balls were blown got up from the ground, took out his pistol and aimed at Anna.

At this critical moment, a dagger cut through the air and pierced directly into the left neck of the crew-cut mercenary.

The mercenary with a crew cut subconsciously touched his neck with his hand, then turned his head to look in the direction where the dagger came from, and a figure appeared in his blurry vision.

The next second, the crew-haired mercenary's body went limp and he fell to the ground.

Anna strangled the mercenary and turned to look at the door:
"It's you……"

Roy walked up, pulled out the dagger stuck in his neck, looked at Anna and said, "Why are you here?"

"I'm also here to stop them from getting the nuclear warhead." As she said that, Anna picked up her dagger, returned to the mercenary who had just fainted, bent down and cut the man's carotid artery.

"Have you met any of the Cerberus people?"

Anna shook her head: "Not yet!"

"Only you?"

Anna nodded: "Yes!"

"You are no match for them."

Roy just saw Anna's attack and briefly assessed Anna's strength. If it was the Hellhound Army, the three mercenaries would have no chance of catching them.

"That's something you need to worry about."

Anna collected a pistol and two magazines, picked up the M4 on the ground, turned her head and looked at Roy: "Should we stop them together, or should we act separately?"

"Then, let's go together..."

"follow me!"

Anna ran to the door on the other side of the cafeteria.

Roy also picked up an M4 assault rifle and followed closely behind.

"Are you familiar with this place?"

"I have the architectural drawings of this place!"

Anna stopped and took out the architectural drawings of the air defense facilities.

Pointing to one point, he said, "This is where we are. It's the cafeteria. We need to move forward, pass the general's office, enter the leisure area, and go through the ventilation duct to reach Area B. The SS-25 missile vehicle is in the weapons depot in Area C."

Looking at the map, Roy took note of the general idea.

"follow me!"

Roy followed Anna and ran forward, turning left and right, and finally stopped in front of a double wooden door.

"This used to be General Ivan's office!"

Pushing open the wooden door and entering, the office is very large, at least 200 square meters, decorated in the style of the 70s, with cobwebs everywhere, and the furniture left over from that time is covered with dust. There is a photo of someone hanging on the wall behind the huge desk.

Anna closed the office door.

The two walked towards the desk together.

Suddenly, a cold laugh was heard:

"Hehehe! Where are you going?"

The next second, a black figure appeared next to the desk.

Roy's eyes narrowed slightly: "Ninja?"

"Maybe you can call me J-Hound."

"J-Hound!" Roy took a step forward.

"It's hard to imagine that you could defeat N-Hound and K-Hound. You know, our Hellhound unit has never lost a single person since its establishment, and your appearance caused us to lose two people in a row on the same day."

"Are you going to stop me too?" Roy asked.

"What else? Not only will I stop you, I will kill you to avenge K-Hound and N-Hound."

J-Hound held two samurai swords and used the tips of the swords to push against the swivel chair behind the desk. The swivel chair turned to the front, and the pale-faced K-Hound came into Roy's sight.

"K-Hound!" Roy muttered.

At this moment, Anna raised the M4 in her hand and aimed at J-Hound.

"Wait! Don't shoot!" Roy stopped Anna, "You go and stop them from getting the nuclear bomb, I'll deal with him."

"This..." Anna looked embarrassed.

"Go!" Roy shouted.

Looking at J-Hound, Roy said, "Your target is me!"

"Haha! Of course!"

J-Hound took two steps forward.

"Go ahead, Anna!"

Anna took a few steps forward and turned to look at Roy.

"Go!" Roy shouted again.

Anna walked carefully past J-Hound.

J-Hound ignored Anna.

Seeing Anna leave safely, Roy threw away the M4 assault rifle in his hand and pulled out two daggers from his waist, one of which was the one K-Hound asked Roy to keep.

J-Hound noticed the special dagger in Roy's hand: "K-Hound gave you his most important thing?"

"Yes! I didn't kill K-Hound!"

Taking a deep breath, J-Hound looked back at K-Hound, and after a moment, he turned back and said to Roy, "You go!"

Roy: "..."

"Before I change my mind, you'd better disappear from my sight. Otherwise, even if you are the son of Asmodeus, I will kill you."

Due to time constraints, Roy said nothing. He picked up the M4 assault rifle on the ground and walked forward. When he passed by J-Hound, he glanced at K-Hound who was sitting on the swivel chair.

As J-Hound said.

He didn't attack Roy.

Walking through the office and into the leisure area, Roy caught up with Anna.

Seeing Roy catching up, Anna asked:
"You defeated him?"

Roy shook his head: "He didn't do it."

Hearing Roy's words, Anna frowned slightly.

"Let's go!"

The two of them climbed into the ventilation duct one after another...
