I am a former Flame Chasers

Chapter 3: Chapter 3: The Fire Moth



Woo woo woo——

The helicopter blades kicked up dust and all kinds of garbage, making Ryan squint his eyes uncomfortably and look around with his head tilted up.

The searchlights were focused on him, and the six barreled machine gun on the hatch was also aimed at him. Soldiers in black combat uniforms and tactical vests kept rappelling down. They quickly occupied various commanding heights, and snipers and observers were on guard all around.

"As expected of the elites selected from various countries, the Fire Moths are still so professional." Ryan said to himself. He knew this group of people too well.

As the world's secret force against Honkai and a supranational organization, the Fire Moth has the most advanced weapons, the most sufficient supplies, the most professional soldiers, and also a variety of extraordinary talents.

They have branches all over the world, and when they detect that the Honkai energy has reached a disaster level, they will rush to deal with it. For example, this abandoned apartment area will be dealt with properly before dawn, allowing most people in the world to live in ignorant peace.

Back to the present, Ryan looked at a dozen soldiers holding large caliber guns, surrounding him from all directions. He was neither nervous nor did he perform the French military salute. He just shouted loudly:

"Hey, this isn't funny."

Ryan found himself turned into a 'red dot' man, with projections of laser indicators all over his body, while the soldier in front of him was armed to the teeth, refusing to show any skin, and his white shirt looked very unsightly.

No one stopped, or rather, everyone was deceived by the special assassins. When the Fire Moths did things, they either arrested or shot them. There was no big logic to it. Fortunately, a female voice came from the back of the crowd.

"Okay, we are one family, put down your guns."

The voice was quite cheerful, and the Fire Moth special forces were indeed well trained, and they lowered their guns almost at the same time.

Several people came up from behind them. The one in the lead was also wearing a black combat uniform. Judging from her body curves, she was a woman. She waved her hand and asked her subordinates to disperse. She took off her thick helmet while approaching Ryan.

The long red hair suddenly spread out, revealing a rather gorgeous face. It was very dangerous to be directly exposed to such a concentration of Honkai energy, but the woman didn't care.

She came up to Ryan, leaned forward and looked at him, and after a while she smiled teasingly: "Brother Ryan, why did you steal my job again?"

"Himiko, you know I'm a kind person. It would be bad if there were casualties so close to the academy." Ryan shrugged lightly and slowly disassembled the spear.

The red haired woman was choked for a moment. She rushed out immediately after receiving the message. It was obviously this guy who took the initiative to provoke Honkai, but she didn't think much about it. It was normal for a boy of this age to want to pretend to be a hero.

"Good heart? Let me think, you killed all the people in an illegal organization two years ago."

"They studied Honkai energy but didn't have the technology, and instead caused a large number of casualties. Of course they should be punished." Ryan touched his shirt pocket, took out his glasses and put them on, and asked calmly: "Killing some people to avoid greater disasters, isn't this good?"

After putting away his rifle and putting on his glasses, Ryan changed completely. He ignored the bodies in the yard and was just like those nerds in the academy.

Himiko was also stunned for a moment, and she couldn't quite figure out the young man in front of her, so she put on a smile again and stretched out her hand, saying, "How about you write me a report on what happened tonight?"

"Just wait, it's just a trivial small Honkai. Besides, I'm not an official member of the Fire Moth. It's good enough that I didn't ask you for the bounty." Ryan snorted unhappily, glanced at his body to see that there was no blood stain, and simply picked up the cloth bag.

"What are you going to do afterward?"

Himiko folded her arms and looked at the dilapidated apartment building. "As usual, it was a gas explosion. I'll have Team B pretend to be from the gas company to seal off the scene. Once the Houkai energy is cleaned up, everything will be fine."

Sure enough, professional.

Ryan smiled silently. As an organization dedicated to fighting against Honkai, the Fire Moth naturally had a set of rigorous procedures, ranging from gas explosions, mass hypnosis to chemical accidents, and even a special online water army department, so he liked to work with professionals.

Well, the longer the peace lasts, the better.

"Then I'll leave these things to you. I have classes tomorrow, so I'll leave first."

"Oke."

Ryan turned his head and saw this carefree woman staring at him seriously, pointing at the dimly lit school.

"Why don't you just join the Fire Moths, or is it more fun to play house there? Your talent can reduce a lot of casualties, even the Second Herrscher at that time..."

"Okay, how much can I do alone, or do you think I can kill all the Honkai with courage alone?"

The red haired woman was speechless. There was really no way to answer this question. The Honkai Impact was like a typhoon or hail, which would never stop. It could not even be called a specific enemy.

"We are just passively defending. What if one day the Honkai exceeds the limit of what the Fire Moth can handle? So I am not playing house. I have to understand the nature of Honkai before I can find a solution."

"But the Fire Moth also has a research institute, you can definitely join." The crisp voice came from next to Himiko, who was also a female warrior.

Ryan shifted his gaze slightly and saw that she had taken off her helmet, revealing her short gray blond hair and a slightly childish face, with her bangs slightly slanted over one eye.

Rita?

He was obviously stunned for a moment, then realized that he had made a mistake just like the first time he met Mei and Himiko. He looked at the girl puzzled eyes and raised the black cloth bag in his hand:

"But the Honkai will always produce monsters. Even if we understand the nature, we still have to defeat the opponent physically. Let's go."

He didn't want to say anything more, so he turned around and walked away, straight to the slope in front of the college before looking back.

The rescue convoy of the 'Gas Company' was speeding over. After turning off the lights, the apartment area was completely dark. In fact, Ryan reasons were not so high sounding. The most important point was hidden in his heart.

Things like fate cannot be exposed to the world. Greed often makes things worse. After all -

The Honkai is terrible, but human hearts are even more terrible.

"Captain Himiko, you're just going to let him go like this?"

Just as Ryan was returning to school, the female warrior who had asked the question just now finally couldn't help it.

"Rose, do you have a problem?" Himiko, who was about to direct the aftermath, turned her head with a look of surprise on her face.

You're not surprised, of course I have a problem.

The girl was furious and pointed at the corpse of Honkai Beast: "He solved this small disaster effortlessly, which is completely in line with the organization's "Special Talent Management Regulations". According to the rules, we should arrest him, right?"

"Then what? Should we send him to the First Research Institute for slicing, or to a combat unit?"

"This... This is of course arranged by the higher ups."

Himiko looked at the serious girl and laughed. Perhaps in the eyes of these overwhelmed frontline fighters, Ryan freedom was indeed enviable and jealous.

"Don't think too much. He makes sense. I am no different in terms of extraordinary combat power." She paused, then remembered something else: "I heard that there is a newcomer named Alicia at the headquarters who is even more amazing than me. Wasn't she sent to the research institute for slices?"

Alicia?

Rose showed an expression of admiration. She heard that the man was extremely powerful and played a big role in the battle against the Second Herrscher. He saved many soldiers and has become a role model for the warriors, their hero.

"There are indeed many special people... No, you are all within the framework of the organization. How can he find an excuse to roam freely outside? How can he protect the world if he is with such a bug?"

"Excuse? I don't think so. He should have his own ideas, and his identity is not simple. Besides..." Himiko pointed to the night sky, hiding the dissatisfaction in her eyes and showing a meaningful smile.

"Some people don't have to follow the rules. Don't think too much. Just do your job honestly."

Rose raised her head blankly and glanced at the starless sky, not quite understanding what was going on.
