Chapter 1705 The Gorgons are waiting

"The target appears. Shall we attack now?"

The Gorgon who was hiding in another nearby building saw Gu Chen getting off the UGM tank not far away through the window, and asked the team leader for advice.

"No, as you saw when we attacked the captain of the Earth Defense Force, the senior members of the Earth Defense Force here are all wearing protective devices that can release energy barriers to block our attacks."

"If we can't kill the target in one shot, then we are very likely to expose our position and be captured or killed by these humans."

The captain of the Gergon aliens shook his head solemnly, not thinking that now was the best time to take action.

"So... should we retreat? Things have developed so far, completely beyond our expectations. If we continue, the chances of success don't seem very high."

As soon as the Gorgon captain finished speaking, another member of the Gorgon team asked.

"...No, we can't retreat. Our string of assassination attempts has alerted the Earth Defense Force's top brass. If we retreat this time, the success rate of the next operation will only be lower."

When faced with this question, the captain of the Gergon aliens was silent for a moment and thought about it, then shook his head again.

"This won't work, that won't work, are we just going to sit there and watch?"

This situation of being unable to advance or retreat made the members of the Gergon team feel very aggrieved, and their tone of voice became a little aggressive.

The captain of the Gergon aliens glanced at the team member who spoke in a somewhat aggressive tone. Although he was unhappy, he did not lose his temper on the spot. Instead, he suppressed his anger and planned to find trouble with this team member later.

Then, the Gorgon captain pulled out a test tube-shaped capsule from his body and said, "We've been studying the new energy inside for a while and discovered some characteristics. It seems to be able to attach to any object, thereby increasing the strength of the object."

The eyes of the Gorgon team members were immediately drawn to the test tube capsule in the Gorgon captain's hand, and a hint of heat flashed in their eyes.

"So, Captain, you mean to use this energy to increase the strength of our attacks?"

The members of the Gorgon team immediately understood what their captain meant.

"Yes, but to be on the safe side, strengthening only one gun is obviously not enough. Coincidentally, we have a good reserve of this energy. Today, we will each take one and strengthen our weapons and equipment."

The Gergon captain nodded, then took out more test tube capsules from his body and distributed them to his team members one by one.

After the Gorgons took the test tube capsules, they all couldn't let go of them.

Suddenly, one of the Gorgons had a sudden idea and said, "Captain, you just said that this energy can attach to any object. So, can it also attach to us and increase our own strength?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the members of the Gergon team immediately looked at their captain with burning eyes, hoping to get a positive answer from him.

"It's possible, but it's not recommended. We haven't done enough research on this energy yet to confirm whether attaching it to us will have any effect on us."

The Gorgon captain first nodded, then shook his head.

Upon hearing this, the Gorgons immediately showed a look of disappointment on their faces.

If they could improve their own strength without any side effects, they would have probably injected this negative energy into their bodies on the spot.

The captain of the Gorgon star looked at the expressions of his team members, a smile appeared on his face, and then he said: "But you don't have to be disappointed. The leader has instructed that this energy be used on Salamander."

"Then we'll be able to determine whether this new type of energy is harmful to us by observing Salamander's reaction."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the Gorgon team members lit up again.

They all knew that if this energy was harmless to their bodies, then the value of the earth to them would definitely increase hundreds or thousands of times.

By then, even if the big head was eaten by their leader, they could still fill their bellies just by drinking some soup.

For a moment, the hearts of the Gorgons became hot.

An emotion called greed grew in their hearts, and the negative energy in the test tube capsules in their hands also surged slightly at this time.

However, these small movements were not noticed by the people of Gorgon.

"Alright, enough talking. Let's quickly strengthen our weapons and equipment, then seize the opportunity to attack the target together and ensure a one-shot kill!"

After letting the team members envision a bright future, the Gorgon captain spoke, drawing the team members' attention back to the operation itself.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the Gorgons gathered their wandering thoughts, responded to their captain, and then followed their captain's actions to inject the negative energy in their hands into the guns they carried.

After doing all this, the Gorgons looked at the weapons in their hands, which had not changed much but gave them a different feeling, and suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in their hearts.

"Captain, shall we start now?"

Then, a Gorgon asked again.

"No, we should wait until they finish their operation and leave. By then, they will think we have already left and will lower their guard, making it easier for us to succeed."

"At the same time, we can hide among the crowd of onlookers below, making it easier for us to confuse the audience."

The Gorgon captain shook his head again and said they had to wait.

The team members had no objections when they heard this, so they all quieted down and waited silently for the best time to act.

……

"Meng, just stay outside. You don't need to come in."

Gu Chen glanced at Ya Demeng who was about to follow him into the building, and suddenly spoke.

"Eh?"

Ya De Meng looked at Gu Chen in surprise.

Didn’t you say last night that you needed his help to find the hidden alien?

Why don't you let him follow now?

Then how can he find the alien hiding in the dark?

However, when Ya De Meng met Gu Chen's eyes, he didn't say much, just nodded, stopped and stayed outside the building.
