Chapter 766 – Stirring Up Trouble is Also a Skill
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
“Ran… Ran away?”
The leader of the Experimental Group stood there, swaying, almost believing his ears were playing tricks on him.
“The one who ran… was the Deputy Team Leader? That old man?”
A shiver ran down his spine, and he practically stumbled and crawled to the car door, peeking through the gap in the direction of the breach.
Unfortunately, the leader’s vision wasn’t very good. His eyes were almost popping out of his head, but all he could see were the flaming gun barrels.
“You! Come here!”
He looked around and suddenly pointed at a guard.
Due to his nervousness, his voice was somewhat distorted, making it sound particularly sharp.
The guard was immediately startled, then crouched and hurried over under the leader’s frantic gestures.
As soon as he got close, the leader’s bony hand grabbed his collar.
This old man, who held a high position at the Niepan headquarters, now had a twisted and grotesque expression, a far cry from his usual dignity.
“Did you get a clear look? Who exactly ran away?”
The guard was almost choking from the leader’s grip and answered nervously with a pained expression, “It seemed like three people… one of them was wearing a white lab coat with graying hair, followed by a shorty…”
Before he could finish, he suddenly felt the grip on his neck loosen and realized that the leader had collapsed onto the ground.
“It was him, him and his daughter… No… this can’t be… it’s impossible…”
The leader muttered with a vacant look in his eyes, “Why did he run? What was he running for? I gave him everything he wanted!”
At this point, his voice suddenly rose, and his expression turned extremely angry, “That old man, how dare he run! He’s trying to ruin me, he’s trying to ruin me!”
He suddenly lunged at the guard again, scaring the guard into another shiver.
“Why on earth did I stand here to watch this spectacle? I should have stayed far away…” the guard thought, almost in tears.
“Go! Bring him back to me! You must bring him back!” the leader shouted.
The guard looked troubled. With bullets flying everywhere, how were they supposed to capture anyone?
Actually, sneaking around wasn’t that difficult, but if the others dared to walk right out the front door in broad daylight, surely they had something up their sleeve, didn’t they?
Chasing after them in the dark would be suicide…
But fearing the leader’s crazed expression, the guard didn’t dare voice his thoughts. Instead, he reluctantly nodded, “I’ll go notify them.”
Only after the guard returned to the crowd did the leader’s body seem to go limp, as if drained of all strength.
Gritting his teeth, he muttered, “That guy named Ling… and Mu Chen… the guy named Ling…”
Repeating the names over and over, his fingernails sunk deeply into his flesh.
The sudden outburst from the Experimental Group leader didn’t go unnoticed by the other senior management members.
Though their reactions weren’t as intense, they too felt a twinge of panic.
After a whole night of chaos, it was only at this very moment that they truly realized the danger posed by their adversary.
So… this was their real objective!
And this move had essentially taken away a backbone of Niepan.
The Deputy Team Leader… He was the foundation of the Experimental Group!
No wonder the leader was trembling with fury. With the roots gouged out, the Experimental Group’s significance would plummet.
Once the most prominent and powerful among all the senior management, the leader’s stature would greatly diminish after tonight…
“After the apocalypse struck, I finally climbed up to the position of team leader, shaking off the ‘Deputy’ leader who had been by my side for decades, thinking I was on cloud nine. And now…” a man remarked, wiping his cold sweat.
“But what’s going on with the Big Boss? His face looks even worse…” someone finally noticed the silent, gasping Big Boss. Although they shouted a couple of times in confusion, they couldn’t discern anything unusual…
Meanwhile, the sunglasses man was finally forced close to Ling Mo, unable to resist.
“Ahhhh!” He screamed furiously, but it couldn’t change his situation.
Iron Rod Man glared fiercely from behind the Barbed Wire, shouting, “How dare you!”
“I already did,” Ling Mo said with a smile.
Ling Mo effortlessly swapped his feet mid-air, making it look like he was taking a casual stroll. However, from his tense posture, it was clear he was using some method to stabilize himself.
No matter how you looked at it, his calm and relaxed demeanor was much more graceful than the awkward, octopus-like crawl of Iron Rod Man.
Coupled with Ling Mo’s condescending smile…
“You’re asking for death!” Iron Rod Man cursed.
“Don’t bother trying to interfere with me; your technique is too poor,” Ling Mo advised.
Iron Rod Man was taken aback for a moment, his face instantly turning bright red.
He saw right through me, just like that?
Come to think of it, this guy is answering me, yet he doesn’t seem affected at all… Isn’t mental ability supposed to require intense concentration?
Could it be… he just doesn’t care about me at all?
Iron Rod Man gritted his teeth in anger, his gaze repeatedly shifting between Ling Mo and the sunglasses man, waiting for the right moment to act.
“Trying to snatch him from under my nose? But you’re not fast enough,” Ling Mo continued, “You can’t climb faster than he can fly.”
Iron Rod Man felt like he was coughing up blood; this guy even had the nerve to mock him!
But Ling Mo’s words were true-Iron Rod Man had to dodge bullets while climbing, significantly slowing him down.
And this only made Iron Rod Man even more frustrated.
Clearly, he already had the upper hand; why resort to the same tactics?
At this moment, a “whoosh” sound reached his ears-it was the sunglasses man getting closer from above.
Iron Rod Man let out a low roar and kicked off from the Barbed Wire, turning to pounce at the sunglasses man.
His intention was obvious. Regardless of how the sunglasses man managed to fly, as long as he brought him down to the ground, it would be a way to escape.
Even if he got hurt in the process, it would be better than falling into Ling Mo’s hands!
Just as he let go of the iron net, he heard Ling Mo shout from above: “Use that rod of yours.”
The sunglasses man flinched mid-air-was he being treated like a baseball?
Iron Rod Man also staggered slightly-enough already!
But his leaping ability was indeed impressive, and the slight stagger didn’t significantly affect his movement.
Seeing his fingers about to reach the sunglasses man, Iron Rod Man couldn’t help but flash a cold smirk.
Although his interference hadn’t succeeded, the guy had gotten too cocky…
But in that very instant, his vision suddenly blurred.
“Huh?”
With a question mark popping up in his mind, the screams of the sunglasses man abruptly seemed to be right above him.
In a daze, Iron Rod Man was still puzzled, thinking, “Wait, if I’m pouncing, he should be under me…”
“Ah!”
The pain of slamming face-first into the ground instantly woke him up. Shaking his head, he struggled to get up, feeling like his body was about to fall apart. He saw Ling Mo gracefully descending from mid-air, holding the sunglasses man.
Separated by a sheet of Barbed Wire, Ling Mo waved at him. “Touchdown!”
Iron Rod Man, still in a daze, felt a tightness in his chest. “Do you think this is a football game?”
“It’s easier to grab people mid-air,” Ling Mo smiled slightly.
Iron Rod Man lunged onto the Barbed Wire, shaking it violently. “Don’t move! If you dare take him away, I guarantee you’ll die miserably!”
“Oh…” Ling Mo gave the sunglasses man’s waist a kick to stop his wailing, then asked with a smile, “Is he very important?”
Ling Mo’s question was very leading, and he watched the sunglasses man’s reaction carefully.
Even in the dim light, Ling Mo’s vision was significantly better than an average person’s.
The reason he paused to ask this was because he already had a hunch…
Upon seeing Ling Mo’s kick, Iron Rod Man’s face turned fierce again. But when Ling Mo asked, a strange look flashed across his face. Stiffening his neck, he answered, “What, are you scared? Let me tell you…”
“Ah, ah,” the sunglasses man, clutching his waist and shaking, wanted to speak too.
But Ling Mo’s kick had been quite hard; the sunglasses man felt as if his kidneys were about to be squeezed out from somewhere. With no energy to speak, he could only groan a couple of times, hoping Iron Rod Man would catch on…
“You…” Iron Rod Man’s eyebrows twitched, “You hit him so hard…”
“Not talking? Fine,” Ling Mo said with a smile, shaking his head. He lifted the sunglasses man and said, “Don’t regret your decision.”
“Stop!”
Iron Rod Man struggled to climb the Barbed Wire again, but now he could barely control his limbs, let alone climb up.
Helplessly watching Ling Mo drag the sunglasses man into the darkness, Iron Rod Man’s body went limp.
With his fingers hooked into the holes of the fence, he muttered with a defeated expression, “It’s over…”
“Hurry up!”
Mu Chen pulled Old Lan through the gap and dashed more than ten meters before coming to an abrupt stop.
Seeing his suddenly tense demeanor, Lan Lan couldn’t help but feel anxious too. “What’s wrong?”
“There’s someone ahead,” Mu Chen whispered.
“So… Niepan was prepared for this?” Old Lan said, his expression uncertain.
Mu Chen nodded heavily, slowly raising his knife and taking a step forward. “You two run ahead and find a place to hide. I’ll cover for you…”
“Hey! You idiot, over here!”
A familiar voice came from the bushes, cutting off Mu Chen’s heroic declaration.
His face twitched, then he turned to the puzzled Lan Lan and said, “It’s one of ours…”
“I see…” Lan Lan blinked and nodded.
“Forget what I just said,” Mu Chen muttered quietly.
“Didn’t expect someone would come to your aid!” Old Lan said, looking excited.
Mu Chen sighed in frustration, “I didn’t expect it either… That Ling Mo! He didn’t tell me anything!”
