The crash into the mountain was far too loud. Even if the people on the other side were deaf, the violent shaking of the mountain made Sun Hang's arrival painfully obvious... not to mention the thunderous sonic booms during the flight.
Using the Kui Ox's power to accelerate himself with an electromagnetic field did let him fly incredibly fast, but it offered virtually no stealth, and his maneuverability was nowhere near that of Old Wang, who had wings of her own... Sun Hang recalled the time he had flown Ling Xiao back to Tianshu Tower to seek help from B423... The fact that they had not smashed into Chunming City's skyscrapers or elevated rails could only be attributed either to good luck or to Sun Hang's latent potential bursting forth and elevating his control to extraordinary heights in that emergency.
Sun Hang was more inclined toward the former.
Sun Hang scanned the area and quickly spotted a narrow trail through the thorn bushes—the other side had retreated in too much of a hurry. They had neither concealed the entrance to the path nor erased the footprints left in the dirt.
But even if they had perfectly covered their tracks, the faint lingering aura of anomalous creatures along their retreat route could not have escaped Sun Hang's senses... He had almost instantly locked onto their location.
Very close—less than a hundred meters away!
At that moment, the grief-stricken voice of the field team leader came through Sun Hang's headset. "Mr. Sun Hang... the deaths of all six agents who were sniped have been confirmed... They were all recruits who had joined less than a month ago. Two of them had even just turned eighteen..."
"You mean you want me to avenge them?" Sun Hang replied. "No need to take anyone alive?"
