Like a graceful dance, after skillfully avoiding the two patrol soldiers, Yang Xiaoyou stepped into the shadows cast by the moving searchlight.
In contrast, evading the awareness of living beings was far more challenging than avoiding the Corpse, especially in a military camp like this one. Despite the numerous flaws in its defenses, it still consumed a considerable amount of Yang Xiaoyou's energy.
The consequences of failure were likely beyond what he could bear. Even with the poor quality of the equipment here, the risks of being discovered remained significant; the entire operation felt like dancing on a Tightrope.
After using the building for leverage to crouch atop a Container, Yang Xiaoyou observed the Six Guards outside the target area while calculating the frequency and timing of the patrols passing through.
"Six of them? Hmm, there should be more inside. It's better to deal with the outside first," he thought as he waited for the longest gap between patrols to pass. He then took out a small stone and flicked it towards the six men in the opposite direction.
The sound of 'thud' immediately drew Twenty-Six's attention away from him. Seizing this moment, Yang Xiaoyou burst into action.
Like a spirit cat leaping to the ground, he transformed into a swift black panther, covering thirty meters in an instant.
The soldiers were still focused on the source of the sound when he swiftly slashed two of their throats with his seized daggers. They clutched their wounds, where veins and tracheas were clearly visible, and fell backward, spewing blood and gasping in confusion about who had attacked them.
The noise from cutting throats and blood splattering caught the attention of the remaining four soldiers. Just as they turned their heads, Yang Xiaoyou pivoted around the fallen bodies and used their momentum to successfully launch his daggers into the foreheads of the two farthest away.
As he completed his turn, his legs followed suit with a Limit Release kick that struck one of the remaining two soldiers in the head, sending him flying with an unnatural twist of his neck, blood spraying onto Yang Xiaoyou's shoes.
It wasn't until all his companions had been dealt with that the last guard finally realized someone was ambushing Arms storage. However, just as he raised his weapon and prepared to shout a warning, a Palm like an iron claw gripped his neck, stifling any sound he might have made.
In his final moments, all he saw were cold, indifferent eyes.
With a snap, Yang Xiaoyou casually dropped the body to the ground and walked toward a side door.
"Boom!" A massive explosion rocked the entire military camp, sending flames shooting into the night sky with blinding intensity.
"Wow, that exceeded my expectations," Yang Xiaoyou remarked from atop a sandy hill outside the camp. He watched as flames erupted from his chain reaction setup and felt waves of heat wash over him. He hadn't intended to provoke Maximi so severely, but since others refused to reason, he decided to abandon reason himself. Not wanting trouble didn't mean he feared it.
Now others need to see their own efforts. If they create such a situation and still can't get out, then they have no one to blame but themselves.
However, it was clear that Fia, who already possessed the prototype of the future, had strong adaptability and leadership skills. Less than twenty minutes after the explosion, a military off-road vehicle burst out of the main gate. At this time, most of the soldiers were busy putting out fires, so the vehicle faced almost no obstruction as it sped through the entrance.
Upon seeing the vehicle, Yang Xiaoyou stood up from the sandy hill and rushed toward the road.
"What happened? Can someone tell me what is going on?" Maximi was jolted awake by the deafening explosion and the tremors in the room, and Heart felt an ominous sensation wash over him.
When he heard about the fire and explosion at the Arms depot, as well as news of people fleeing, he felt as if he had aged significantly. He leaned weakly against his chair, his eyes dimming with despair.
Perhaps he should never have been so greedy. Now he had not only offended hl Martial Arts Saint King &l; &g;I Company, but even his accumulated Arms depot was in trouble. This would surely be known by nearby warlords, and if they chose to take advantage of him now, he wondered if he could even wait for reinforcements.
Initially, he had intended to hold back hli's princess just to tie Both Sides to a tank. He owed her money; even if his methods were extreme and she was dissatisfied, she would have to accept it begrudgingly. In time, she might even offer help willingly.
But now that she had escaped, things were truly dire.
The starry night sky over the desert appeared exceptionally brilliant and mysterious. Moonlight poured over the desert and road like a silver veil, creating a stark contrast with the white surroundings. As the ground temperature gradually dropped, a slight chill began to settle in.
On a winding road through the desert, an off-road vehicle was driving at a normal speed. It was evident that this vehicle was severely overloaded; a man wearing a helmet sat on top of it. At that moment, a Silver-Haired Girl was climbing up onto the roof—it was Yang Xiaoyou and her group.
Initially worried about pursuing enemies, they had driven quite fast. However, it was clear that the commotion created by Yang Xiaoyou exceeded what this military camp could handle. After some time on the road, there wasn't a single pursuer in sight.
Given this situation, they slowed down to accommodate Yang Xiaoyou on top of the vehicle.
"Not bad, it's been a pleasant collaboration," said Fia, who had finally managed to climb onto the roof. She extended her hand with a smile; some soot on her fair face added a touch of mischief to her appearance. Her expression suggested she wasn't at all heartbroken over losing that helicopter.
"Just remember what you promised. Do you have any suitable targets in mind?" Yang Xiaoyou, now wearing her helmet again, replied casually.
"Once we confirm our target, will you handle public relations?" The smile on Fia's face resembled that of a cunning fox.
"Sort of. But you don't need to use that as leverage; as long as you're willing to put in some effort here, waiting for me is no problem," Yang Xiaoyou said with a smile while watching Fia struggle to keep her hair down against the wind.
"How boring. Well, let me tell you, I think the collaborator from the Gustav Group, Yannick, is quite impressive. The decision regarding Maximi's backer was made after much consideration between those two. Plus, before my event, I can go over and inform him to maximize the benefits," Fia Haek Media said with a mischievous smile.
"It seems you've really seen through my actions this time. Spending so much time watching my team is quite dangerous," Yang Xiaoyou joked, though the seriousness behind the word 'dangerous' was uncertain. For now, at least, they remained temporary partners.
"Since you're here, it’s natural that you have something significant planned. Recently, the targets within your capability undoubtedly include Gustav and the Serpent. Between the two, Gustav poses a relatively higher difficulty; this isn't hard to judge," Fia remarked, her expression showing no concern for Yang Xiaoyou's warning. Her words served as an explanation.
Although it seemed relaxed, this involved multiple analyses and considerations, far from being as simple as it appeared.
"Since I'm going to take down Gustav anyway, I might as well eliminate his shipping channels and hitch a ride on your coattails," Yang Xiaoyou said with a glint in her eyes.
If it were just her alone, taking down the Gustav Arms Group would not necessarily offend Yannick. However, with Fia's heavy news impacting the situation, General Yannick would surely compromise when weighing the benefits.
In power dynamics, there are only relationships based on interests.
"I believe in your abilities. However, I came here specifically to offer you some free intelligence. Recently, Gustav has suffered significant financial losses due to being targeted by strange individuals and is preparing to merge with the AB Alliance. Don't underestimate this opponent," Fia Haek Media finally revealed her true intentions.
The AB Alliance is currently the largest commercial alliance in the Free Arms market and will be the main competitor of HLI Company in the future.
I can't even catch a chicken; I feel utterly powerless after wasting half an hour with it.
