Lian Zhan-kai shook his head, indicating that they hadn't arrived.
Guan Zhilin's expression darkened upon hearing this.
The fact that the Dragon Team members hadn't arrived for so long could mean that something unexpected had happened. When she and Wang Chao arrived in this town earlier, they had heard deafening sounds, clearly the muffled clashes of the Dragon Team and numerous skilled fighters.
The opponents had obviously come prepared, and it was highly likely that they had set an ambush for the Dragon Team.
Expecting the unexpected!
The Dragon Team members were likely in danger of being killed!
After all, those criminals were extremely vicious and capable of anything.
To them, killing was nothing but a minor matter.
"Leader, you go ahead and rescue the other hostages. I'll be fine here," Guan Zhilin said.
Lian Zhan-kai glanced at Guan Zhilin, then his gaze shifted to the money bag in her hand before he turned and left.
"Oh, by the way, did you happen to encounter a shirtless, handsome man with numerous injuries when you came in just now?" Zhao Yihuan asked.
"No," Lian Zhan-kai shook his head.
"Really?"
"When our forces arrived, we only saw the criminals and the school staff and students. Apart from Officer Guan, we didn't see anyone else."
Guan Zhilin and Zhao Yihuan exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
Wang Chao had walked out of the white smoke earlier, so logically he should have met Lian Zhan-kai and the others. But Lian Zhan-kai and his team hadn't encountered Wang Chao, so how did he leave?
Lian Zhan-kai didn't inquire further and quickly led the others to other classrooms to rescue more people.
Guan Zhilin gritted her teeth and stood up, trembling slightly from the pain.
Zhao Yihuan quickly supported her and said, "Officer Guan, your foot is severely injured. Why don't you just lie down on the ground and wait for rescue?"
As she spoke, she used her free hand to secure the coat that had been covering Guan Zhilin's legs, concealing them.
"Now is not the time to rest. We must quickly hand over this item to the Dragon Team," Guan Zhilin said through clenched teeth.
She held the money bag tightly, her gaze solemn.
The Dragon Team was in the forest outside the town, and she had to go there.
"Officer Guan, we'll stay here."
Just then, a gentle voice sounded.
The young man who had appeared in the forest before, dressed in Tang-style clothing, now stood at the classroom door, smiling at Guan Zhilin.
He had a handsome and charismatic appearance, a sunny smile that made him feel like a friendly neighbor, giving people a refreshing feeling.
Behind him stood an incredibly beautiful woman with a bow and arrow on her back, and a young man with a crew cut and wolf-like gaze carrying a long knife.
All three of them had some injuries, blood dripping from them.
However, there was even more blood on their clothes, a shocking sight.
Clearly, that blood was from their enemies!
They may not be very old, but their eyes were incredibly sharp, and they exuded a terrifying aura that made people not dare to underestimate them.
"Who are you?" Zhao Yihuan's eyes were alert as she immediately stood in front of Guan Zhilin.
"They are experts from the Dragon Team, the guardians and the sharp edge of our Dragon Kingdom."
Guan Zhilin felt relieved upon seeing them approach and immediately handed over the blood-stained money bag, respectfully saying, "I have retrieved the stolen treasure. Take a look."
"Thank you."
The young man in Tang-style clothing walked over, took the money bag, and opened it to confirm that everything inside was intact. He then took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and handed it to Guan Zhilin, saying, "Officer Guan, you've worked hard."
"This is a specially made elixir by our Dragon Team. It has excellent healing properties for external injuries."
As he spoke, he handed the money bag to the young man carrying the long knife.
The young man with the knife took the money bag and strapped it to his back.
Seeing him, Guan Zhilin's eyes became even more fiery.
He was the super expert who had split the plane in half with a single slash in the forest, right?
Then she looked at the beautiful woman carrying the bow and arrow, her gaze becoming even hotter and more admiring.
The arrows were as fast as lightning, with a longer range than a machine gun and more powerful than a sniper rifle. They could pierce through armored helicopters!
So powerful!
An idol!
The young man in Tang-style clothing stared at Guan Zhilin and asked, "Officer Guan, did you snatch this money bag?"
Guan Zhilin opened her mouth, intending to say it was Wang Chao, but remembering her agreement with Wang Chao, she furrowed her brow and said, "Yes, it was me!"
The young man in Tang-style clothing's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, but he didn't pursue it further. He smiled and said, "Officer Guan, you have made a great contribution this time. As a reward, we would like to invite you to join our Dragon Team as a member."
Guan Zhilin remained expressionless and said in a deep voice, "Thank you, I really like the Dragon Team, and I've always dreamt of joining them."
"But I will enter the Dragon Team based on my own abilities, not relying on your special invitation."
Entering the Dragon Team was her dream, but she wanted to achieve it through her own efforts, not relying on others.
If she were to gain the opportunity to join the Dragon Team through someone else's credit, she would look down on herself.
Moreover, most of the credit for this mission belonged to Wang Chao. She already felt guilty for taking credit that rightfully belonged to him. How could she agree to such a request?
She still had her integrity!
"Officer Guan, you have admirable integrity. I admire you!" The young man in Tang-style clothing looked deeply at Guan Zhilin, expressed his gratitude once again, and then turned and left.
The three of them came and went quickly, soon disappearing from the school.
Guan Zhilin watched their departing figures with some regret. The tension in her heart eased, and she sat on the ground, letting out a long sigh of relief.
When Lian Zhan-kai glanced at the money bag earlier, it had made her imagine something bad, and her heart raced.
Now that the money bag was finally in the hands of the Dragon Team members, she could finally relax.
After everything was resolved, Guan Zhilin could not hold on any longer and immediately fell unconscious on the ground.
Zhao Yihuan's expression changed drastically, and she shouted, "Is there anyone? Help!"
Outside the school, inside a Hongqi H5 sedan, the young man in Tang-style clothing, the stunning beauty, and the young man with the long knife sat in the car.
Their weapons were placed in the rear compartment.
The young man with the knife held the money bag and looked at the young man in Tang-style clothing sitting in the driver's seat. He said, "Boss, it's clear that Guan Zhilin is lying. There's no way she could have retrieved those two treasures with her abilities."
"I believe someone must have been secretly helping her." The beautiful woman carrying the bow and arrow nodded in agreement.
After dealing with the elite mercenaries, they immediately contacted the Dragon Kingdom's War Department and obtained Guan Zhilin's information. They were quite familiar with her.
While Guan Zhilin had some strength, it was impossible for her to snatch the money bag back from those thugs.
"Do you think I can't see what you all can see?" The young man in Tang-style clothing glanced at them and said, "So, do you know who is helping her?"
The attractive woman with the bow and arrow and the young man with the knife looked at each other and remained silent.
They had never met Wang Chao or Guan Zhilin, so they had no idea who Wang Chao was.
The young man in Tang-style clothing started the car and drove towards the dock. While driving, he said, "Do you know who was escorting the treasures among those mercenaries?"
The beautiful woman with the bow and arrow and the young man with the knife remained silent once again.
"He's a star-ranked warrior, one of the three assassins of the Outland Battlefield's God's Hand, the Green Dragon Demon Lord!" the young man in Tang-style clothing said.
The expressions of the attractive woman with the bow and arrow and the young man with the knife changed dramatically.
The Green Dragon Demon Lord!
He was an extremely formidable assassin, with boundless strength and unparalleled assassination techniques that were impossible to defend against.
Even if the three of them joined forces, they might not be a match for the Green Dragon Demon Lord.
So many elite warriors were dispatched for these two treasures?
As if realizing something, the attractive woman with the bow and arrow's expression changed dramatically. She said, "Boss, are you implying..."
While driving, the young man in Tang-style clothing retrieved a picture and displayed it on the car's screen. He uttered in a deep voice, "According to the latest information, the Green Dragon Demon Lord has been killed, instantly!"
On the picture was the body of a middle-aged man with a fierce expression and a tattoo of a green dragon on his face.
There was a transparent hole in his forehead, dripping with fresh blood.
In death, his eyes were filled with terror, as if he had seen the most horrifying thing in the world.
The expressions of the attractive woman with the bow and arrow and the young man with the knife changed once again.
Who was this person who could kill the Green Dragon Demon Lord with a single strike and make him so terrified?
