Chapter One Hundred Eighty-Seven Standing Tall and Proud
"Hehe, have you thought about it? If you fail this time and die, wouldn't it be a bit regrettable to leave this world as a virgin?" As she watched Yang Xiaoyou rise, Charming Shadow returned to her alluring demeanor. However, at that moment, she was completely bound, the ropes crossing over her chest accentuating her curves even more.
"I don't want to set a death flag; that's just bad luck. Hey, once I get what I need, if you find yourself unable to sleep because of me, if I really run into trouble, you'll definitely be worse off than I am. You should think about your own situation," Yang Xiaoyou replied with a nonchalant smile as she took out some tape and sealed Charming Shadow's mouth shut.
All the various equipment hidden on her had been confiscated, and now Yang Xiaoyou had confined her in a basement that hadn't been used for at least three months.
If she hadn't come, Charming Shadow would surely not last long without food or water.
Moreover, Yang Xiaoyou had a certain understanding of Revenant. At the very least, she could determine that Charming Shadow was not lying.
The current approach was undoubtedly the best compromise for Both Sides.
If she could really obtain that Controller, their work might become even easier than before. Once they let go of their mutual distrust, all the problems before them could be resolved effortlessly.
On the other hand, if she failed, it would simply lead to the worst-case scenario, which was not much different from the imminent threat of Mutual Destruction they faced.
Originally, Yang Xiaoyou had come prepared to scout the organization; now it seemed her actions had deepened considerably.
Out of concern for their own safety, Charming Shadow straightforwardly informed Yang Xiaoyou that due to fears of backlash from both sides, the individual in control of the Controller, in terms of strength, might not be much weaker than the two of them combined. They needed to ensure they could manipulate the Controller before they were overwhelmed by any rebellion.
Additionally, since this was a transaction within the same organization, there would likely be others from the organization present as well.
At the same time, speed was crucial. Although Shadow of Death would certainly try to delay the transfer of the virus out of concern for Charming Shadow's safety, if too much time passed, they would inevitably notice something amiss.
In this situation, Yang Xiaoyou had little choice and time left.
Given that,
The method to be employed was quite simple.
At the entrance of the building, which had been restructured and renamed as Sunshine Corporation, a figure dressed in a black trench coat, resembling a Zombie, appeared.
“Is Boss really going in alone? Isn’t that a bit too trusting of us? Seriously.” From a rented apartment several hundred meters away, a Blonde White Man leaned against a propped-up sofa, aiming his Sniper Rifle at the entrance of the Sunshine Building, chewing gum while complaining.
“We can’t afford to draw attention right now. The fewer people involved, the less chance we have of being caught. All we need to do is support him once he achieves his goal and comes out. We have to trust him.” Nobunaga Hideyoshi was also present in the room.
Since taking charge of Hive Security Company, he had rarely been on the front lines of battle, but this time he came without hesitation.
Meanwhile, Mo Wenfu stood by the window with his arms crossed, seemingly amused by the chaos being created in this country.
“Excuse me, sir, do you have an appointment?” The security guard at the entrance of the Sunshine Building, upon seeing the Zombie-like face, stepped forward with several others to block him, some placing their hands on their waists.
“Yes.” A calm voice emerged from the figure resembling a Zombie.
Hearing this, the guards let out a sigh of relief; it was unclear whether it was simply from confirming his words or from the fact that he was indeed alive after all.
“Then please show your identification.” One of the guards smiled as he spoke.
As they awaited his identification, the figure pulled out two black handguns from within his coat. The guns were clearly modified; beneath the barrels where tactical lights would typically be attached were protruding bayonets, giving them an odd appearance.
Suddenly encountering such a scene, the few security guards who had been in the Peaceful Era for a long time were momentarily stunned and did not react immediately. By the time they realized something was wrong and prepared to take action, the figure holding the gun had already rotated their hand.
Bang! Bang!
Two gunshots rang out, and two security guards fell to the ground in response.
The rotating blade of the gun also sliced through the throats of the remaining two guards.
All four men fell almost simultaneously, blood streaming down the stairs, while the zombie-like figure stepped forward, leaving bloody footprints as it walked into the building.
Under the Light Transformation Day, a shooting incident occurred in the City Center, resulting in four deaths at once. The pedestrians outside were momentarily in disbelief.
However, as blood pooled onto the sidewalk, people finally understood that this was not a movie. Many screamed, and most others began to flee in all directions.
"Wow, Boss is so direct. Tsk tsk, the Police Station is going to be crying," remarked a Blond Man who was observing the situation through a scope, whistling softly.
Even though gang conflicts had been severe recently, they usually chose to engage at night and in more secluded areas to avoid ordinary people. The negative impact of such an event was far from ordinary.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Stepping into the Sunshine Building, Yang Xiaoyou showed no hesitation as they walked toward the Elevator Entrance. With each step taken at a steady pace, the handgun in their hand swung naturally.
Every security guard who appeared was met with immediate gunfire.
The guards, who appeared to be just ordinary company security, surprisingly possessed firearms for counterattack.
Unfortunately, only a few were able to fire back, completely overwhelmed by a single opponent with precise marksmanship, who executed a complete suppression of firepower.
Arriving at the Elevator Entrance, after glancing at the elevator located six floors above, Yang Xiaoyou took out something resembling clay and affixed it to the elevator's valve. Then, she moved a short distance away.
With a loud explosion, the elevator valve was blown open, revealing the darkness below.
The vibrations from the explosion shook loose some dust from the ceiling, causing ordinary staff members to scream in alarm.
Afterward, Yang Xiaoyou paid no further attention and stepped directly into the dark Elevator Entrance, plummeting straight down.
Since the opponent was nearly powerful enough to contend with Ming Mei Shuang Ying in cooperation, demonstrating her ability to break through defenses would inevitably provoke them to intervene due to their ties with the organization.
"Position! Free fire!"
At the bottom of Sunshine Building, in a warehouse filled with technological ambiance, a team clad entirely in Protective Suits and with their identities concealed aimed at the tightly shut elevator doors.
When the doors were blasted open by an explosion, they pulled the triggers of their weapons, sweeping fire into the smoke-filled interior.
Sparks flew as bullets struck their targets.
After continuous firing and expending two rounds of ammunition, the leader raised his right hand.
"Stop! A1, go check it out."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, something resembling a Metal Pineapple was thrown out from behind the gradually dissipating smoke at the door.
Upon seeing the object that was thrown, the leader's pupils beneath the Protective Suit involuntarily constricted.
"Get down!"
But by then, it was already too late. The thrown Metal Pineapple emitted a faint explosion, and from various openings, numerous iron balls shot out like projectiles.
These iron balls then exploded violently in mid-air, scattering countless metal pellets in all directions, leaving almost no blind spots; everything was covered.
Whether lying down or standing, every figure was turned into a sieve.
In an instant, the pellets swept across the entire Exit, and the surroundings fell eerily silent.
At this moment, with the smoke completely cleared from the Elevator Entrance, a figure could be seen sliding down from above, pulled by a Silk Thread. After a slight tremor of the arm, the Silk Thread was retracted at the wrist.
Glancing at the bodies outside that had been nearly turned to mush, he did not pause but stepped forward into the interior.
Pick up some decency.
