"Since that's the case, please apologize to our non-combat external members, or we won't hesitate to use the same methods." Upon seeing Charming Shadow appear alone, Yang Xiaoyou understood what had happened. However, he did not greet her; instead, he calmly stared at the young man who had acted out.
Hearing such words startled a few of them. The sudden appearance of the alluring figure had drawn some of their attention, but they quickly focused again.
"Non-combat external members? That's easier said than done. I'm also a non-combat external member," Ye Weilong said, his heart racing for a moment before he spoke with a hint of sarcasm and mockery.
The Red Dragon organization was divided into four departments: Combat, Security, Logistics, and United Front. The first two were responsible for combat, while the latter two handled logistics and decision-making.
Their Security department mainly consisted of newcomers still in training and retired members from the Combat department. While their combat power might not match that of the Combat department, they were still recognized as formal combat members.
According to the rules, unless on the battlefield or in a situation where both sides were fully engaged, it was frowned upon for combat personnel to act against non-combat personnel. Such actions would damage their reputation.
"Shut up." Song Enfu had to intervene and stop his somewhat unruly subordinate. Undoubtedly, Ye Weilong was one of the most capable members under him, having come from the Combat department at its peak. However, his knack for causing trouble was equally strong.
Song Enfu did not believe that the six capable Suit Men were merely external members. Yet he would not allow Ye Weilong to speak nonsense here. Many had witnessed his abilities in action; denying it would only reflect poorly on them.
The other side could deceive without concern, but those with status on their side could not do the same.
"We are indeed external members. Our mission this time is to assist a formal member and a core member in completing their task," one of the Assistants, a middle-aged Brunette Man with a grim expression, quickly clarified. He understood his colleague's intent and presented his ID card to confirm his words.
Meanwhile, Charming Shadow approached Yang Xiaoyou's side and explained the situation relayed from Fia, causing Yang Xiaoyou's brow to furrow deeply.
Although he appeared assertive in speech, he had been quite accommodating for the sake of maintaining overall harmony. Hearing the news brought by Charming Shadow only worsened his mood.
"Alright, we were indeed reckless this time. I personally apologize for our actions. We will cover all medical and nutritional expenses," said the man who had shown his ID card. Although he did not hand over the card itself, Song Enfu's keen eyes caught sight of its markings, leaving him feeling quite helpless about the situation.
This turn of events put them in a passive position. They could have exerted pressure on the other side but ended up with no contract secured instead. The negative impact would be significantly reduced if others thought that Red Dragon's strength surpassed that of their opponents; it was merely that the employer was unwilling to breach their agreement. This was why he had tacitly allowed his subordinate's actions.
But now that it had come to this, he felt somewhat restless. Tsk tsk, relying on bullying others to prove oneself? He could already imagine the dark expression on his superior's face if such remarks were to surface.
"If an apology is all it takes, then what do we need the police for?" Hearing the other party's somewhat forced apology, Yang Xiaoyou was not convinced.
At first, to avoid unnecessary complications, such a response might have sufficed, but not anymore!
Since it was clear that the other side would not back down easily, he might as well offend them completely!
What was the purpose of establishing Hive Security Company?
If he couldn't handle an organization, could he not deal with you, Red Dragon?
Holding onto reason, he had nothing to fear!
He didn't like to stir up trouble, but he was certainly not afraid of it!
"Then what do you want?!" Ye Weilong, who had initially suppressed his anger under the captain's orders, was now furious again at this group of ungrateful fellows.
However, before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt a terrifying roar echoing around him. While his mind was still in a daze, he sensed his feet give way, and his entire body felt weightless as the scenery around him spun rapidly.
Before he could react to what was happening, a violent impact struck his head, plunging him into a haze.
A metallic taste filled his mouth as the smell of blood overwhelmed his senses. He even felt the jarring sensation of broken teeth rolling in his mouth.
A fiery and numbing pain surged through his cheek.
As his muddled mind struggled to lift itself, he felt an immense force pressing down from above, pinning his head to the ground.
Gradually, as his darkened vision cleared, he saw a very ordinary sports shoe in front of him, while its matching pair was firmly planted on his head.
Straining to tilt his head upward, he could only catch a glimpse of the cold gaze looking down at him. At the same time, a voice devoid of any emotion pierced through the air, "I’m feeling a bit restless, but I didn’t expect your company’s combat personnel to be this useless."
The shoe pressing down on his head, combined with that chilling voice, filled Ye Weilong with a sense of humiliation.
He didn’t even understand how he had suddenly found himself in such a predicament!
With a beast-like roar escaping his lips, he attempted to break free from his current situation, but the foot on his head kept him pinned down, rendering him unable to move. No matter how much he struggled with the rest of his body, his head felt as if it were nailed to the ground like a soft nail.
"Stop!" Song Enfu, just recovering from shock, instinctively shouted out even though the astonishment still lingered on his face.
However, after exchanging a brief glance with the other party, he felt as if he had plunged into an ice cave; the words that followed were swallowed back down.
Just as Ye Weilong was about to finish speaking, Song Enfu felt Heart’s sudden tension. He then witnessed a figure that seemed to defy the limits of human perception; Ye Weilong appeared to flip through the air before crashing headfirst into the ground.
Even Song Enfu couldn’t clearly see the specific movements of the opponent.
All he felt was an overwhelming impact when the other party made their move, as if a deafening roar erupted around him—one that bypassed his ears and went straight into his mind! It left him dazed for quite some time. When he finally regained his senses, this was what he saw!
One of his most valued subordinates—someone who might even surpass him in the future—had been taken down without any warning and was now being humiliated with their head pressed against the ground!
There was no doubt that this was intentional humiliation; it wasn’t just directed at him personally but also insulted the entire Red Dragon organization!
"Take them all into custody and bring them along. Let the people from Red Dragon come to collect them later. Of course, if the police want to take them too, we can hand them over; it’s up to them whether they can bear this shame." After twisting her foot forcefully for emphasis, Yang Xiaoyou's tone turned chillingly cold.
He only made a move to deal with one person, yet his tone clearly indicated that he intended to take all five of them away. There was no room for negotiation.
This dismissive attitude towards others filled Song Enfu and the others with anger and humiliation, but they also felt a sense of helplessness.
They all knew Ye Weilong's strength, which was comparable to Song Enfu's, but it was a complete mismatch in this situation. There was no chance to turn the tables; they were crushed to the ground before they even had the will to resist.
It meant that as long as the opponent was willing, none of them present could escape this outcome!
It was ironic that most of their hearts were filled with superiority at first, instinctively looking down on their opponent, but now it seemed as ugly as it could be.
Moreover, no one expected that the person who caused this situation would be the seemingly delicate young man who appeared weak and fragile!
This was truly beyond imagination and reason!
In fact, aside from Song Enfu having a vague impression, his other subordinates, the members of Hive Security Company assisting them, as well as the staff in the hall and the onlookers, only felt a jolt of confusion before suddenly finding themselves in this predicament.
It seemed as if that person had deliberately allowed himself to be trampled on while lying on the ground; only such a possibility could make sense of what they were experiencing.
Hearing the murmurs around him, Song Enfu's expression changed. This shouldn't be happening!
No matter how fast or skilled the opponent was, it shouldn't create such an illusion among those present!
Before he could think it through, several security members approached with special plastic zip ties approved for use and bound their hands.
By the time they reacted, they found their hands already secured by those specially designed restraints, tied behind their backs.
They didn't even have the most basic fighting spirit left; there was no awareness of resistance at all.
After securing the feet of the individual, Yang Xiaoyou finally released his control and scattered some jade dust from his hands.
With his unique way of thinking, he naturally weighed various possibilities and outcomes before taking action.
The lobby itself was not a place for the activities of the Red Dragon to be exposed, so they had already hacked into the hotel system to disable the lobby's surveillance cameras while still in their room.
As they stepped out of the elevator, they could skillfully judge the situation by observing the flickering red dots on the monitors.
In such circumstances, it was necessary to guard against any potential witnesses among the onlookers, so he utilized a piece of jade crafted during a moment of boredom, which unleashed a mental deterrent similar to what she had used previously, affecting everyone present in an instant.
Even Ye Weilong, who was being stepped on, felt somewhat bewildered, let alone the nearby crowd. The other members of the Red Dragon were also caught off guard by this wave of intimidation and found themselves ensnared in confusion.
The only ones who could sense something unusual were Charming Shadow and perhaps Song Enfu.
Yang Xiaoyou had no intention of letting them go easily.
Since it had come to this, allowing Hive Security Company to rise ahead and join the ranks of top-tier Blackwater Security Company seemed feasible; clearly, the Red Dragon was a good stepping stone.
