Chapter 424: Chapter 423: Black Sniper
"Are you saying that first it was Xiaoyou at that intersection who lost contact, causing the nearby Fifteenth to check it out, also losing contact, which then alarmed Shen Sanxi, and now even Shen Sanxi is caught in it?"
The Bald Guy’s face grew darker as he spoke, and by the end, he was gripping the steering wheel so tightly it creaked.
"Yes, we could only cordon off that area and wait for your decision when you arrived." Sun Wei had likely adjusted her emotions, speaking more cautiously now.
"That’s right; when the situation is unclear, we must preserve our forces first. You all did well."
The Bald Guy reluctantly found something praiseworthy in the team members’ actions, enough so that the tenth squad wouldn’t seem completely useless in front of Lv Bai, though not by much.
His tone became chilling: "I really want to see what bold bastards have the guts to stir up trouble at this point."
Facing the obviously furious Bald Guy, Sun Wei, even if curious about Lv Bai’s identity, dared not speak out of turn.
Since the incident occurred near the intersection, it was convenient for the Bald Guy, as he didn’t need to park and could drive directly to the scene.
With a single step on the accelerator, the wind roared as the car sped forward.
In just over two minutes, the Bald Guy’s car reached near the intersection.
Inside the established cordon, two young men in Cheng Zhiwu uniform trench coats were on high alert, watching the E3 intersection.
Bam!
As soon as the car stopped, the Bald Guy kicked the door open and marched aggressively towards the two team members.
"Captain Jiang."
"Captain."
The two team members immediately turned around and greeted the Bald Guy.
Unfortunately, the Bald Guy, still angry, didn’t acknowledge them and crossed the cordon without hesitation, heading straight to the center area of the E3 intersection.
The two team members were contemplating whether to advise caution, but before they could, they realized the Bald Guy had already covered a significant distance.
They exchanged glances and, gritting their teeth, decided to follow him.
"Is he always this impulsive?" Lv Bai asked casually while walking leisurely behind, addressing the young woman at his side.
Sun Wei didn’t know Lv Bai nor could she discern his identity.
But seeing as the Bald Guy had brought Lv Bai along, she cautiously explained, "Mainly, the Captain has always thought highly of Shen Sanxi, claiming that if anything happened to him, Shen Sanxi should be the one to take the position as the captain of the tenth squad."
After lifting the cordon and bending low to pass through, Lv Bai commented, "Sounds like this Shen Sanxi is quite formidable."
"Not just formidable," Sun Wei rolled her eyes but didn’t rashly disclose information about Shen Sanxi’s abilities. Following him under the cordon, she vaguely said, "Shen Sanxi’s ability group can cause major losses even at a captain’s level if the opponent is unprepared."
"No wonder the rest of you didn’t dare to go in and waited for the captain to handle it." Lv Bai chuckled noncommittally.
They continued their intermittent chat, unconsciously catching up with the Bald Guy and the two team members.
As the surroundings grew eerily silent, Sun Wei began to feel nervous and said in a low voice, "You must be a Death Fighter, too? Stay sharp, because if things heat up, I won’t have the energy to watch out for you..."
She trailed off, suddenly falling silent as if she’d seen something unbelievable.
Following her gaze, Lv Bai saw three bodies stacked in the middle of the intersection, like a bizarre human pyramid.
Judging from everyone’s expressions, including the Bald Guy’s, these were likely the three team members who had gone missing.
Watching the scene, Lv Bai mused, "A provocation? Or perhaps a trap?"
...
Meanwhile.
In the Fourth Habitable City.
Li Shan and Feng Yixuan walked down an empty street.
Feng Yixuan glanced around, still chattering away: "The SOS from Special Services mentioned a killer indiscriminately killing people here, didn’t it?"
The scene nearby was indeed unusual.
There were obvious bloodstains on utility poles, billboards, and the glass windows of shops.
Feng Yixuan carefully sensed the area, confirming there was no trace of living people left, and clapped her hands with a hint of joy at the prospect of slacking off.
"Let’s inform the captain; the killer might have fled to another area."
"We should notify the captain, but..."
Li Shan suddenly looked towards a nearby restaurant: "...the killer hasn’t left."
Squeak~
A pale hand pressed against a fallen sign, slowly setting it upright.
Then a young man appeared from behind the sign, staring at the two on the street with interest.
So, this is Cheng Zhiwu. I wonder what the blood of such Death Fighters might taste like? Surely, it should provide more blood energy than ordinary people, right?
The young man thought to himself.
...
"I’m really curious what this guy is up to," the Bald Guy ignored any potential risks, moving straight towards the three bodies at the intersection’s center.
The actions of the perpetrator weren’t meant to provoke Cheng Zhiwu pointlessly.
The three bodies at the intersection’s center were bait for a trap.
As the Bald Guy reached the intersection’s center, a fist-sized hole suddenly appeared in his chest.
Blood gushed out, mixed with fragments of internal organs.
A moment later, the delayed sound of air bursting reached everyone’s ears.
Seeing this, even Lv Bai squinted his eyes.
Even he didn’t know where this attack came from.
Either it’s not a Death Fighter’s ability, or the attacker is at a considerable distance.
"Cough..."
The Bald Guy staggered, uncontrollably coughing blood, and tried to cover his wound to stop the bleeding but found it impossible.
He also had no idea where the attacker was, only able to roughly determine the direction from his wound.
"This ability..." The Bald Guy’s teeth were stained red with his own blood.
"Though not very heavy, it’s a big catch."
A voice came from Shen Sanxi’s body, marked by the distinctive tone of electronic transmission.
The Bald Guy reached into the body to pull out a mobile phone, which displayed an ongoing call: "Black Sniper."
A soft snicker came through the phone.
"When working, use titles; you should call me Vice President."
