Sensing something was wrong, Lu Li immediately alerted Aurora and the others through his earpiece:
"Enemies are coming from the hotel's main entrance."
As he spoke, he was about to move Ms. Maria to a safe location.
But the next second, Lu Li suddenly felt a chill on the back of his head, and the hairs on his spine stood on end!
This is precisely the "Malice Perception" ability gained during the [Thoughtless Meditation] state, which allows one to sense intentions through eye contact, and the more ill intent one harbors, the clearer the perception becomes.
"They've set their sights on me? Interesting."
Following the malicious gaze, Lu Li looked towards the Guadalajara Cathedral, 500 meters away.
On the top floor of this landmark building, the "Brown Bear" stared at Lu Li through an 8x magnifying lens.
"Very keen intuition."
The Brown Bear wasn't surprising.
The information states that the target is a mysterious and powerful leader of an armed force who has thwarted numerous assassination attempts by drug lords.
Such a person must have keen intuition, it's a pity he's going to die here today!
"Handsome Xia Country boy, Daddy loves you~"
The "Brown Bear" licked its lips, aimed at Lu Li's forehead, and pulled the trigger.
With a muffled "thud," a 12.7mm caliber bullet shot out of the silencer at an initial velocity of 880 meters per second!
With the two sides approximately 500 meters apart, and considering the bullet velocity decay, Lu Li's head would disappear in 0.6 seconds.
This not only eliminates a formidable opponent but also creates chaos, allowing teammates to cooperate.
However, Lu Li is in Bullet Time, and with the Fierce Tiger physique brought by the Martial Arts [Organ Refining], he can do a lot in 0.6 seconds!
He calmly leaned forward and dodged the incoming bullet.
The bullet continued its flight, breaking off the leg of a grand piano and then punching a hole the size of a fist in the wall.
The piano crashed to the ground, the walls exploded, and debris flew everywhere, eliciting screams from the crowd!
Lu Li quickly went to Ms. Maria's side and led her toward the back door of the banquet hall.
But as he walked, he suddenly stopped!
In the next instant, a bullet whistled past less than 10 centimeters in front of the two people!
Seeing its target dodge twice, "Brown Bear" was immediately shocked and roared into its headset:
"Lu Li is no ordinary person! He also used drugs!"
The sound was clearly transmitted to teammates via radio.
Royd and Anna reacted differently upon hearing the warning.
"Lu Li, it's that Xia Country brat!"
Royd became excited:
"I knew it! Xia Country must have developed soldier enhancement drugs too! Let's see whose is better!"
He pulled a lighter-like syringe from his pocket and pressed it against his neck.
The liquid is injected, and the drug takes effect rapidly within seconds.
Royd's blue pupils widened instantly, and he instinctively shuddered.
Wow! I'm Superman!
His body functions were operating at full capacity; the superficial veins on his body bulged out, and his expression became frantic.
Anna also took out a syringe and reluctantly injected herself into her arm.
"Every time I use this stuff, my period stops; the side effects are too severe."
As the drug took effect, the silver-haired foreigner's breathing became heavy, and she pulled out a palm-sized object from behind her waist.
With a gentle shake, and a few "click-click" sounds, it transformed into an AR15 rifle—a true "folding rifle."
Royd also pulled out a weapon and the two charged towards the banquet hall.
~~~~~~~~~~
The enemy is flashy and sophisticated, but for Lu Li, the only difficulty lies in protecting the VIPs while also concealing his own identity.
We cannot reveal ourselves until we can subdue the entire planet.
At this moment, Lu Li, with his arm around Ms. Maria, walked along the wall towards the back door of the banquet hall.
The Brown Bear won't just stand by and watch two targets escape; that's $30 million!
He locked onto Lu Li's body and pulled the trigger through the wall!
A large-caliber bullet whistled through the wall and burst through!
Lu Li could clearly see the wall bulge and crack, and by pulling the woman back, they dodged the bullets.
But in addition to the bullets, the scattered gravel also carried terrifying kinetic energy, spraying out like shotgun pellets.
Several guests who couldn't escape in time were riddled with blood on the spot!
Lu Li shielded the woman behind him, his gaze sharpening, and the flying pebble shattered into powder upon impact with his mental barrier.
The surroundings were already in chaos, and the fine dust from the bursting walls obscured the view, so there was no fear of being noticed anything amiss.
"Cough cough cough..."
Dust filled the air, making visibility very poor.
With a thought, Lu Li's "Blood Drinker Sword" flew out of his backpack, pierced through the bullet holes, and followed the "Brown Bear."
Two seconds later, Lu Li heard the sniper's scream through his mind.
He dusted himself off and calmly led the lady to the back door of the banquet hall.
There's a safe passage here; Jessica, Teresa, and the others have already come over under the protection of the puppets.
Teresa said anxiously, "Aurora is struggling to hold off the assassin... she seems to be losing ground."
Lu Li calmly said to Ms. Maria, "I will resolve this matter within two minutes."
Although the woman was still shaken, she maintained a good mental fortitude and said calmly, "Okay, thank you."
Lu Li turned and walked towards the main entrance of the banquet hall to deal with the other two assassins.
The crowd around him, running and shouting like headless flies, only made the boy appear more composed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the same time
After receiving Lu Li's warning, Aurora led four security personnel to guard the main entrance of the banquet hall.
Seeing that there were only two enemies, she felt a sense of relief... but she soon realized that she was very wrong!
"Bang bang bang!"
Upon first meeting, three security personnel had their foreheads smashed open and collapsed to the ground.
Such precise marksmanship frightened a security guard so much that he only dared to stick his wrist out of the wall and fire blindly to suppress the enemy.
But the next second, the man was shot twice in the hand and lost two fingers.
He screamed and shrank back behind the wall, only to be shot through the wall and blown apart in the back of the head by a bullet!
"Who exactly is this person?!"
Aurora, her face splattered with blood and foam, cowered behind the wall, her face filled with disbelief!
Less than 10 seconds after they met, he was the only one left alive in the team, and the defense line collapsed instantly!
She quickly spoke into her headset, "Escort the lady to safety immediately..."
Before he could finish speaking, several holes burst open in the wall he was in, clearly from bullets.
Aurora fell to the ground, splattered with blood, and used her legs to push off the ground to retreat to a safe position.
"Damn it! They located me based on the sound..."
She was wearing a bulletproof vest and was otherwise unharmed. However, a bullet had lodged in her shoulder, and she was bleeding profusely.
Just then, she saw Lu Li leisurely walking over.
"Watch out! The enemy has two sharpshooters!"
"It's alright, leave this to me. You go and protect the lady."
Lu Li helped her up and said, "The lady needs you more."
"Then be careful!"
Knowing the man's abilities, Aurora didn't hesitate and went to the lady while clutching her wound.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile, Royd and Anna leisurely changed their magazines.
"What a bunch of amateurs."
Royd shook his head, dissatisfied with the enemy's quality.
Anna added, "While caution is a good thing, we absolutely didn't need to get that injection."
Under the influence of the drug, both of them experienced a significant boost in physical fitness and reflex speed, making them no match for ordinary people.
At this moment, Anna felt that Grizzly Bear was being a little too quiet and was about to ask him what was going on in the banquet hall.
But the next second, a scream came from the other end of the walkie-talkie:
[Run! Abandon the mission!]
There was actually terror in his voice!?
What on earth happened to cause such an emotional reaction in a professional "cleaner"?
