"How thoughtful of them, but it's good to be cautious." Upon entering the building and realizing they were heading directly to the Underground Mall, Wang Chong was momentarily taken aback. Initially, he had thought they would remain inside the building.
However, this was about his own life, and seeing the other party's composure gave him a sense of satisfaction.
In truth, he felt some dissatisfaction with the way they had been meandering along the way. Who was he? An elite individual whose abilities surpassed those of ordinary people. After making deductions, he firmly believed that no one could track him down.
The wisdom of mere mortals could not compare to his own.
He felt a sense of disdain for their overly cautious actions at first.
Yet, regarding this gathering point, he didn't mind it being somewhat secretive since it wasn't a location he had chosen himself; their plans could never be as thorough as his.
"Of course, even if we were being followed right now, with all the escape routes available here and the several paths we've prepared, safely retreating wouldn't be a problem at all." The Beautiful Lady appeared quite proud of their chosen hideout.
However, upon hearing her words, Wang Chong couldn't help but feel a flicker of discontent.
"Hmph! How could anyone see through my arrangements? The reaction speed and deductive abilities of ordinary humans cannot compare to mine."
"Ah, I see. My mistake. I was just making an analogy. Anyway, we're almost there; it's that Dental Clinic."
Located beneath the Golden Easy Building, the Underground Mall spanned half the area. In September's lingering heat, many people enjoyed strolling through the Underground Mall even if they weren't shopping, relishing the cool air conditioning.
"Ugh, security is quite tight here. I'm not sure how much control they have over it. But we have pinpointed a general location: it's a Dental Clinic right at the corner. There are three exits just outside, and I can't confirm if there are any hidden passages inside. It’s indeed challenging... Oh look, they've put up a 'Closed' sign." A man in a suit, looking like an ordinary office worker and sweating profusely, spoke into his walkie-talkie while discreetly wiping his brow.
The foot traffic here made it easier for Hive Security Company personnel to approach unnoticed while also serving as a significant advantage for their opponents.
Regardless, this was still the City Center. Initially, there were only two of them; now they could easily create disturbances and capture different targets. Once action commenced here, there could potentially be multiple hostages involved. Moreover, given how long their opponents had operated in this area, it was likely they had some hidden escape plans.
Without adequate preparation, even the most skilled members of Hive Security Company couldn't guarantee success.
Before long, familiar voices crackled through the earpieces of those present.
"Proceed with my instructions for division. Based on that location and the overall structure of the underground city, aside from the three visible exits above ground, there are also three emergency escape routes in secret. Now..."
Under the arrangement of various positions and commands, the members who followed this time naturally changed their initial direction of movement, aligning themselves with the designated spots.
As frontline combat personnel, all they needed to do was act according to orders.
Inside the Dental Clinic, which had already hung a sign indicating it was closed, an elderly man in a White Coat with a somewhat Celestial Aura looked at Wang Chong with an expression of excitement on his face.
"Ah, you finally agreed! Come, everything is ready. We just need to make the final adjustments before we can start the injections. The most complex part has always been the adjustment phase we’ve been preparing for. Originally, restarting would take at least three or four hours, but now we can save that time; it will only take about ten minutes at most."
The deep wrinkles on his face, capable of squashing a fly, along with his disgusting smile, truly made Wang Chong feel nauseous. However, he quickly calmed himself down; after all, the old man was doing all this just to please him.
At that moment, a boldly dressed and stylish nurse suddenly rushed out from inside. However, her face, which should have been serious and professional, was instead filled with panic.
"Team Leader, there's a problem! Someone is redirecting the flow of people nearby, and the surveillance has already detected some suspicious figures! If it weren't for the issues with the crowd flow, we wouldn't have noticed their actions at all; their professionalism is extremely high! Even we were completely deceived at first. If we don’t act quickly now, it will be too late!"
"What?! You are supposed to be in control of the entire surveillance system of the Underground Mall! Why did you only discover them when they were right in front of us?!" The elderly man, who had been in high spirits moments ago, now appeared furious and embarrassed.
Just as his words fell,
With a loud bang, an explosion echoed from outside. Even within the Second compartment, they felt a tremendous vibration; clearly, a wall had been blown open.
"Useless!"
At this point, he could no longer afford to punish anyone further. He could only scold angrily before quickly pulling Wang Chong deeper inside.
His pace was swift, no less than that of a young person.
Simultaneously, he took out something resembling a remote control and began inputting commands rapidly. Instantly, the entire clinic lost power, with only red alarm lights flashing and emitting sharp sirens.
"The three main exits are no longer usable; what about the secret doors?" After entering the password without paying any attention to the changes around him, the old man coldly spoke into the intercom.
"From what we can see on the surface, everything seems fine. However, they definitely won't make it easy for us. We have divided our members into three groups for evacuation while probing; there will definitely be—ah!"
However, the walkie-talkie emitted a sharp scream during the Dao General, which abruptly stopped.
Immediately following that, another explosion was heard from behind, as the Isolation Room on the Second floor was breached. The efficiency and methods displayed were simply shocking!
Had they been targeting this place all along? Had they made preparations in advance?
But how could such coincidences exist in this world? If they had truly discovered it earlier, there would have been no need to wait for these two clueless fellows to arrive!
They must have lured them here!
And if this was indeed a last-minute arrangement, yet they easily locked down all the hidden exits, then the execution capability of the other party...
"Hmph! Good thing we were prepared; you really underestimate our operations here! Do you think we only have those three secret passages? Follow me!" The old man, whose face was dark enough to drip water, pulled Wang Chong and quickly changed direction.
Dazed and confused, Wang Chong had just begun to grasp the situation when he caught a cold glance from the old man.
That grim expression instantly stifled all his words, leaving him unable to speak.
This feeling of frustration made his proud Heart scream continuously; he vowed that he would make the old man pay for this one day!
The Beautiful Lady who had initially brought Wang Chong in, along with the charming nurse, were now anxiously following behind. Ultimately, it was the Beautiful Lady who held some status and reassured them.
"Has that route finally opened?"
"Yes, that one. We paid quite a price for it. Hmph! Just some insignificant obstacles blocking our way; even if the military seals off the entire area, as long as they don’t blow up the whole Golden Easy Building, they can’t stop us." A hint of pride appeared on the old man's face.
However, he didn’t mention one thing: while escaping might be simple, how to flee the city in such an environment was a matter that needed careful consideration.
"Golden Easy Building? Are we really going to the Golden Easy Building? Once we enter there, we'll be trapped like fish in a barrel!" At this point, Wang Chong could no longer hold back and spoke urgently.
"Foolish." The old man, already in a state of rage, no longer cared about the other party's potential and simply snorted dismissively, refusing to say more.
They then walked into a room resembling an elevator, where the old man continuously pressed buttons. On the screen, it seemed to display another elevator rapidly descending. Once it was close enough, the old man activated the elevator to begin ascending.
"We have completely mastered the entire building's elevator system, and the backup power has also been connected to our base. The recent power outage was to ensure that the elevator system would be unobstructed for a short period. We just need to go up and make a quick exchange, and we can directly reach the top floor to take the helicopter from there," the Beautiful Lady explained simply to Wang Chong, unlike the old man.
In an instant, Wang Chong's heart, which had been racing, calmed down again, and he felt a glimmer of relief as if he had survived a disaster. It turned out there was still this route available.
"Ding."
With a soft sound, a fire hydrant on the wall of the first floor of the Golden Easy Building collapsed inward, revealing a slowly opening metal door inside. At the same time, the elevator door just a meter away also opened. In less than two seconds, they could easily transfer.
However, when the wall crumbled and the elevator door slowly opened, Wang Chong saw a figure that absolutely should not have appeared before him—the very person who had humiliated him and whom he wished he could tear apart!
In the chaotic hall created by the wall's explosion stood a young man who remained completely unfazed in the center—Yang Xiaoyou!
"Nice position; you managed to complete the transfer so quickly," Yang Xiaoyou said with a smile of approval upon seeing the four figures of two men and two women.
But that smile was extremely glaring in the eyes of the others.
