Upon hearing the knocking sound, the captain immediately sat up straight, staring at the door with a serious expression.
He made no movement and remained silent, just coldly staring at the door, his right hand already on the pistol at his waist.
If it was the police who had arrived, he would directly open fire and then make his escape.
Knock, knock, knock!
The knocking had a rhythmic pattern, starting with three long and two short knocks, followed by four short and three long knocks, and finally three very urgent knocks.
Upon hearing this, the captain finally breathed a sigh of relief, relaxing his guard.
It was the special knock code of their Blood Demon Mercenary Group, indicating that it was their own people outside the door.
He stood up and opened the door.
Standing outside was a foreigner with blonde hair, blue eyes, and fair skin.
He was tall and well-built, handsome and charming, appearing to be around twenty years old. He had a roguish smile on his face, looking very dashing!
He was dressed in an Adidas sportswear, with earrings in both ears, giving off a hip-hop vibe.
When he saw the captain, he flashed an even brighter smile and said, "Dear John, long time no see! Did you miss me?"
The captain glared at the young man and said angrily, "Shut up, you damn Mike!"
"Fuck, didn't I tell you not to call me that name? The name Mike is so common in our country!" the foreign young man retorted angrily.
"Isn't John just as common? Call me by my real name, I'm Liao Chongbai!" the captain frowned.
"Then you can call me by another name, call me Du Bai!"
"What's that?"
"Du Bai, a combination of Li Bai and Du Fu, my two favorite Oriental poets!"
"You clearly haven't learned culture properly. In the rankings of poetry in the Dragon Kingdom, Li Bai is undoubtedly the first, so you should be called Li Du!"
"I prefer Du Bai, so what if you have a problem with it?"
"Don't stay at the doorway, come in and let's talk."
Liao Chongbai turned and walked into the hall, taking out a bottle of whiskey and placing it on the table.
He knew that Du Bai liked this brand!
Du Bai followed suit, locked the door behind him, sat opposite Liao Chongbai, and took a big gulp from the bottle of whiskey. Then his expression became serious, and he said in a low voice, "The boss sent me to understand the situation and to help you leave the Dragon Kingdom."
"Tell me, what happened to you?" Liao Chongbai's expression also turned serious as he recounted everything that had happened.
"A divine-level archer named Jialuo? Do you think this is a game?" Du Bai said, glaring at Liao Chongbai. "Even if she's Jialuo, her arrows can't reach that far."
"Do you think I'm lying?" Liao Chongbai's face turned dark.
As a three-star War God-level expert, he had faced many superiors and never stooped to lying.
When he had talked to Du Bai about Yang Yue earlier, he had readily admitted his fear and terror.
Facing Yang Yue, he knew he couldn't win, which was why he had escaped.
It was precisely because of his decisiveness that he had escaped unscathed.
"Alright, I understand your situation. The helicopter is on the hotel rooftop. Pack your things, and I'll take you out. The boss said that if you manage to escape from the Dragon Team this time, you'll be of great use!" Du Bai said.
Liao Chongbai felt overjoyed upon hearing this.
Indeed, there's fortune after surviving a great danger!
He immediately stood up and said, "No need to pack, let's go quickly. I want to see the boss as soon as possible."
Du Bai finished his whiskey and walked over, putting his arm around Liao Chongbai's shoulder. He said, "Brother Liao, the boss rarely sees someone with your abilities. You're going to prosper."
"You should know that the boss is most afraid of the Dragon Team's people now. In the past year, whenever our people encountered experts from the Dragon Team, they were killed."
"Now, you are the only one who has managed to escape. The boss will definitely nurture you greatly!"
"When you have power and influence, don't forget to promote me a little."
"Of course, of course." Liao Chongbai started feeling a bit ecstatic.
In fact, he had already started fantasizing about becoming a prominent figure by the boss's side, enjoying immeasurable wealth and glory.
Splat!
However, before his daydream could even finish, suddenly, a dagger pierced through his heart, blood pouring out.
The other end of the dagger was held by Du Bai.
Liao Chongbai stared wide-eyed, looking at Du Bai with disbelief. "What... what are you doing??"
Du Bai smiled brightly and said, "Sorry, Brother Liao, it's the boss's orders."
"Everyone else is dead, but you're still alive, without even a single drop of sweat."
"Your condition makes the boss very suspicious."
"He thinks you might be a spy planted by the Dragon Team within our mercenary group, so, you have to die."
As he spoke, he applied more force with the dagger and swiftly twisted it.
With the movement of the dagger, Liao Chongbai's heart instantly shattered.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, fell to the ground, his eyes wide open.
He died with disbelief in his eyes!
"Brother Liao, I'm sorry. Have a smarter brain in your next life."
Du Bai chuckled, pulled out the dagger, wiped it clean on Liao Chongbai's clothes, and then put the dagger away before turning around and leaving.
After leaving the villa, he took out his phone and made a call, saying in a deep voice, "Boss, the situation has been resolved."
"Liao Chongbai didn't reveal our information to the Dragon Team, did he?"
"No, that kid was purely scared out of his wits by the Dragon Team and that's why he came back."
"Boss, based on the information we have, there are only three members of the Dragon Team left in Canton City. This's a great opportunity for us to do that thing."
When mentioning that thing, Du Bai's eyes became incredibly excited.
"While you were killing Liao Chongbai, I already sent people there. Ten formidable warriors, including one at the seven-star level. You'll be the team leader, and this mission must be successful!"
"Thank you, boss."
Du Bai felt ecstatic upon hearing this.
"Alright, I'll send you the address. Go pick up the team immediately. Remember, take advantage of the Dragon Team's vulnerability within the next three days and complete the mission!"
"Understood, boss. You wait and see, this time I'll definitely kill that person!"
After Du Bai finished speaking, he hung up the phone, immediately went downstairs, and drove straight to the location specified by the boss.
However, while driving, he, like Liao Chongbai, had a feeling of horror and unease, as if there were thorns on his back.
His expression changed dramatically, and he quickly looked behind him.
There was no one behind him, no vehicles either.
The terrifying feeling of being watched had disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.
"What's going on?" Du Bai frowned.
He felt as if he was being followed by someone or targeted by some terrible monster. It sent shivers down his spine.
But when he carefully observed and used his counter-surveillance abilities, he did not see any trackers.
"It seems that I was too nervous and had illusions." Du Bai frowned slightly, relaxed, and continued driving.
Magang, a suburban area, within a small airport.
In the vast night, a passenger plane descended from the sky and landed here.
Ten experts emanating a terrifying aura walked down the plane and approached Du Bai.
As they advanced, a formidable and terrible killing intent filled the air, causing the temperature of the entire airport to drop rapidly.
Even the ground was covered in a thin layer of frost.
This was an immensely fierce killing intent!
"Ten war gods!"
"Hahaha, the boss is really going all out this time. With such a strong backbone, I can definitely turn the whole Dragon Nation upside down!"
Du Bai looked at these ten individuals with great joy and excitement.
These ten individuals were genius assassins cultivated by the boss over more than twenty years, a group of elite warriors.
With them, he felt confident in annihilating all the Canton War Department and completely dominating Canton City.
"So, this is all of you?"
Just as Du Bai was extremely excited, a hoarse and aged voice suddenly entered his ears.
Wang Chao, wearing a mask, had already appeared behind Du Bai at some point. His pair of icy eyes, like sharpened blades, stared coldly at him.
