In those days of Plants vs. Zombies

"Report, the target was not found in the paper documents and materials."

"Report, it's not in the computer either."

After searching the laboratory, the ZIA agents reported the situation to the captain of the agent in charge of the operation.

The captain of the special agents was a tall and thin man, and his expression became increasingly cold behind the mask.

A ZIA agent who was operating a computer suddenly said, "Captain, the computer's Recycle Bin is running and has deleted a lot of information..."

"Stop running the Recycle Bin immediately!"

The special agent captain reacted and wanted to stop it immediately, but unfortunately he was a step too late.

The ZIA agent in front of the computer shouted in annoyance: "Captain, the Recycle Bin has been emptied."

“It shouldn’t be that simple.”

After a little thought, the captain of the special agents realized that the laboratory was just a cover and the real target must still be in the hands of the pair of alloy mechanics.

He immediately issued new orders, requiring the escaped Claros and Clardasha to be captured.

The ZIA agents continued their movement, chasing towards the safe passage.

But on the way, they encountered obstacles again, from the last blue ice special forces soldier.

The ice field opened, freezing the ZIA agents in place.

"I can't let you pass."

The ice mushroom spirit hidden in the dark muttered to himself. He looked at the group of ice sculptures in front of him indifferently, and then released the spirit power again to maintain the field.

Seven Blue Ice Special Forces soldiers died one after another, and instructor Ashur also died on the battlefield.

But even if there is only one person left, he will continue to carry out the mission unswervingly until he dies in battle.

“I hope Mr. Claros and his family can leave safely.”

The ice sculptures had completely blocked the safe passage, and after confirming that it would take a long time for the enemy to pass through, the Ice Mushroom Spirit appeared, ready to chase after the Claros couple.

But what he didn't expect was that a crossbow arrow had been waiting for him for a long time.

The crossbow arrow stained with poison pierced through the heart and knocked the ice mushroom spirit to the ground.

The captain of the special agents put away the crossbow he was carrying and slowly walked towards the ice mushroom spirit.

The ZIA agents who were turned into ice sculptures were also thawed by their companions and regained their ability to move.

Two ZIA agents stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, controlling the Ice Mushroom Spirit and bringing him to the captain of the agents.

"Tell me, where did the mechanic couple go?"

The captain of the special agents stared at the ice mushroom spirit being held up by two ZIA agents and questioned in an emotionless voice.

"You ask me? I have only one answer, which is I don't know."

The Ice Mushroom Spirit smiled coldly and looked at the special agent captain with only cold eyes.

The captain of the special agent raised an eyebrow: "You really don't want to tell me?"

"Die, you damned Imperial hounds!"

The ice mushroom spirit suddenly moved, and at the cost of dislocating both arms, it broke free from the restraints of the two ZIA agents beside it.

He then activated his spiritual power, wanting to use his own life to create a snowstorm and bury all the ZIA agents in ice and snow.

But the speed of the Ice Mushroom Spirit is one step slower than that of the special agent team leader.

The syringe that appeared in the captain's hand at some point was injected forcefully, injecting all of the blood-red liquid into the neck of the ice mushroom spirit without leaking a drop.

The blue ice special forces soldier suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and then his eyes turned blood red.

He struggled, his skin turned paler, a pair of sharp teeth grew in his mouth, and his face became more terrifying.

But not long after, the ice mushroom spirit suddenly combusted under the light and turned into a pile of ashes and dissipated.

“I never thought that those vampires could come up with something like this.

Although it is an inferior product, it can kill people so quickly, so it can be considered somewhat useful."

Throwing the syringe aside, the agent captain waved his hand and said, "Let's go. Before the Federation can react, we must catch up with the mechanic couple before the Federation does."

Well-trained ZIA agents immediately filed out of the research institute and boarded the special service vehicles that had been prepared for a long time.

When support from the 59th Federal Army arrived, the ZIA agents had already left by car, leaving behind a research institute littered with corpses.

······

Kararos was driving a car, speeding through the war zone.

In the back seat of the car, Cladasha comforted Clara, who was awakened and crying loudly, while looking at her husband anxiously:

"Senior, where are we going now?"

"Dasha, let's go to the base of the 59th Federal Army. There are a large number of troops stationed there. Once we get there..."

Before Claros could finish his words, Cladasha interrupted him hastily: "Senior, something is wrong."

"Something's wrong. What's wrong?"

Claros asked his wife puzzledly while driving.

“Let’s not mention for now that the enemy that attacked the institute was a ZIA agent from the Empire, but the location of the institute is kept secret at the highest level in the Federation.

How did the Empire know where we were? And even sent ZIA agents here?"

Careful Claddasha thought about it for a moment and discovered the problem.

After hearing what his wife said, Claros immediately understood.

It was not logical that the location of the Federation's highest-secret research institute was leaked, and the Empire learned of it and sent agents to attack it.

In this case, there must be a high-ranking imperial spy in the Federation.

Thinking of this, Claros immediately changed direction and drove the car towards the depths of the abandoned city.

It is probably impossible to go to the headquarters of the Federal 59th Army, as there might be enemies waiting for you on the way.

Cladasha was slightly stunned: "Are we going into the abandoned city?"

Claros' hands trembled slightly as he gripped the steering wheel: "Only in this way can we have a chance of survival."

Just as Claros was concentrating on driving, he caught a glimpse of a few lights in the rearview mirror out of the corner of his eye.

The pursuers were approaching, and they were two special service vehicles carrying ZIA agents.

Cladasha hugged Kolora tightly in her arms and turned her head to look behind her.

As if she sensed that the atmosphere was becoming tense, little Clara started crying again.

"Don't be afraid, Clara. Mom is here. Don't be afraid."

Claddasha comforted her daughter again, but the expression on her face was not as calm as before.

"Senior..."

"Dasha, protect Kolora and sit tight!"

Claros took a deep breath, stepped on the accelerator hard, and the car sped away along the street.

Two special forces vehicles followed closely behind, and several ZIA agents climbed onto the roofs, apparently making some preparations.

Cladasha, who had been paying attention to the pursuers behind the car, exclaimed: "Senior, be careful! They are coming!"

Several ZIA agents who had climbed onto the roof of the car suddenly jumped out, using the thrust provided by the backpacks behind them to rush straight towards the vehicle in front.

The propulsion backpacks they carried were another small invention of Professor Zombie Idea of ​​the Empire.

By installing a high-power thruster on the backpack, the carrier can move quickly over long distances.

Compared to the inconvenient ZPG rocket launcher, the small propulsion backpack is obviously more popular among the agents of the ZIA Secret Service.

Claros responded immediately. He activated his spiritual power to create a repulsive field on the car, repelling the ZIA agents who were rushing towards the car.

As a magnetic mushroom spirit with fifth-level spirit power, Claros has an easy control over magnetism.

With the help of the magnetic force attached to the repulsion field, Claros also tampered with the propulsion backpacks of several ZIA agents.

When several ZIA agents were about to activate their propulsion backpacks again, the propulsion backpacks behind them exploded with a burst of sparks and lightning, blowing several ZIA agents half to death.

"waste!"

The agent captain cursed and looked at the ZIA agents beside him, signaling them to continue.

Several more ZIA agents were dispatched and surrounded the car.

But without exception, they all returned empty-handed after Claros's slight tricks.

In a rage, the captain of the secret service took out a secret weapon from the secret service vehicle - the Z-ray gun produced by Z Technology Company.

He pulled the trigger, and a ray shot out from the muzzle, directly penetrating the repulsive field and hitting the rear engine of the car.

Under the influence of the rays, the engine immediately collapsed and began to disintegrate gradually.

Sensing something was wrong, Claros accelerated again, shook off the pursuers behind him, turned around and drove into a nearby neighborhood.

Seeing that the target had entered a huge industrial park, the captain of the special forces cursed inwardly and immediately ordered everyone to get out of the car and prepare to conduct a carpet search of the area.

He knew that his use of the ray gun to destroy the engine would force the Claros family to abandon their car and walk.

In this abandoned city full of dangers, the unarmed mechanic couple will certainly not be able to escape their net.

Cat and mouse begins now.
