"Gentlemen, these missions are crucial to the future situation in Kazdel, so please be extremely careful and also pay attention to your safety."

Theresa watched as the small group, led by Su Rui, prepared to depart. She nodded to them, watched them board the vehicle, and then watched them leave.

"If something like this can go wrong, what reason do I have to stay here?"

Su Rui glanced at Wis'adel beside her and urged, "Alright, stop looking. When you come back, should we prepare another reward for you?"

"None of your business! Goodbye, Your Highness."

Wis'adel politely said goodbye to Theresa, then sat in the passenger seat, looking at Su Rui with some suspicion:

Can you drive?

"Of course I can, I just haven't driven one before," Su Rui said, looking down at the three pedals and falling into a brief moment of thought.

"What do you mean you've never driven one before? What are you looking at?"

Wis'adel, along with Ace, Scout, and Outcast in the back seat, all realized that something seemed amiss.

However, they didn't say anything for the time being, except for Wis'adel, who clearly expressed his doubts about Su Rui:

"Can you even drive? If not, get someone else to do it."

"Of course I can, what are you talking nonsense for?" Su Rui glared at Wis'adel, annoyed. "I was just trying to figure out which pedal was the clutch, brake, and accelerator."

Then, without giving Wis'adel any time to back out, using the information provided by the Scanning Vision, Su Rui stepped on the gas and quickly drove off.

With dust billowing up from the wheels screeching against the ground, the vehicle sped off under Theresa's watchful gaze.

Of course, Theresa didn't care about the dust kicked up. She simply watched the vehicle gradually disappear from her sight, then turned and returned to the interior of the Babel. Following her usual route, she arrived at the Doctor's office and gently knocked on the door.

"Doctor, may I come in?"

The door wasn't locked.

Theresa gently pushed open the door and saw the Doctor lounging on the sofa, browsing his computer.

"Has the Doctor finished his work for today?" Theresa approached the Doctor with some curiosity, without any intention of urging him.

The Doctor, who is usually a workaholic, was surprisingly relaxed today, which surprised Theresa.

The Doctor, faced with Theresa's question, couldn't help but let out a few smug chuckles from under his hood:

"As long as Su Rui is there, there won't be any problems with the work. He has a wide range of abilities, and even if he's out on a mission now, he can still contact us."

The Doctor glanced at Theresa sitting opposite him and moved aside a little space in front of his computer.

"How about saying hello to Su Rui?"

Theresa was stunned for a moment. She had been feeling a little disappointed because of her separation from Su Rui, but she didn't expect that there would be a turning point with the Doctor.

Theresa got up, pushed the chair opposite the Doctor Doctor his side, and then saw Su Rui driving the car.

Even while driving, it didn't prevent Su Rui and Theresa from communicating. However, although Theresa could hear the sounds, she didn't see Su Rui speak.

"Don't be surprised. I can't let the people in the team be slacking off while I'm on a mission. I can focus on several things at the same time, so there's no need to worry about things here."

The Doctor also helped explain from the side:

"Actually, Su Rui was controlling the computer's speakers to make noise; no one was speaking on the other end."

"I see... It seems a bit noisy over there?"

Theresa heard voices from Wis'adel, as well as words of persuasion from Ace and Outcast in the back seat.

"It's nothing, a minor issue," Su Rui replied expressionlessly as she drove. "It's just that Wis'adel suddenly threw a tantrum."

The Doctor was skeptical, but after glancing at the swaying ground outside the window from Su Rui's perspective, she deduced the answer:

"Su Rui, you actually can't drive, right?"

"What are you talking about? I'm driving perfectly fine, aren't I? I've gone this far without causing an accident. My driving skills are actually pretty good."

Su Rui completely ignored the Doctor's questions and Theresa's somewhat subtle glances, and continued driving towards her destination.

Although the journey was a bit long, Su Rui, as the driver, didn't find it boring; it was just that the passengers in the car were a bit nervous.

For example, Wis'adel, who was sitting next to Su Rui, would remind Su Rui from time to time, "Be careful, there's a ditch ahead! You're going to drive into it!" and so on.

Fortunately, with Su Rui's Scanning Vision as a guarantee, the car still made it to its destination without any major incidents.

"So, what's our plan? Don't tell me you're planning to just storm in, wake this town from its slumber with explosions, and then have us deal with everyone in the entire town?"

Having just driven, Wis'adel was quite critical of Su Rui's behavior. Leaning against the passenger door, he looked Su Rui up and down, then stared intently at Su Rui's face, trying to glean some clues from his expression.

"Of course not, we'll wake them up when we leave."

As Su Rui spoke, he took out the Rapid-Fire Gun that Talulah had given him from his System Space, fitted it with the prepared silencer, and then glanced at his teammates in the car:

"Let's go, leave the car here, no one can drive it away."

With that, Su Rui opened the car door first and walked towards the town.

"Should we infiltrate? Or go in disguise as ordinary Sarkaz?"

"Do you think we could possibly pretend to be ordinary Sarkaz?" Su Rui glanced at Wis'adel; he and Outcast were a Sarkaz, one lacking racial characteristics and the other Sankta, so their only option was to infiltrate.

I know a deserted path.

Prince of Kazdel: 312 Infiltration Without Being Detected

After all, this is a small town in Sarkaz, not some Mobile City. It's not even a moving landmass; it's just an ordinary town built on the ground, hoping it won't be destroyed unless Catastrophe strikes.

Such towns would naturally not have very strict defenses.

Although there were sentries, they were completely useless to Su Rui. Under Su Rui's leadership, they could easily avoid all sight.

The town in front of us doesn't have enough manpower to cover all directions.

"Come with me, be quiet, and try not to make any noise."

Although they had reservations about Su Rui's driving, even Wis'adel didn't object to Su Rui's orders at this point. However, Scout asked with some doubt, "Shouldn't I go scout ahead?"

"There are five sentries ahead: two on the platforms on either side, one in the security room, and the other two chatting against the roadblock."

Su Rui's intelligence capabilities immediately dispelled their doubts. Scout nodded; after seeing that what Su Rui said was exactly the same as what they saw, the intelligence made Su Rui's words even more convincing.

Although many Sarkaz have eyes that are better adapted to darkness than other Terra, darkness still provides excellent cover in most situations.

Su Rui led Wis'adel and the others to the back of a low wall on the outskirts of town. With sentries guarding every gap, climbing over the wall was the best way to get there.

"There are two Sarkaz craftsmen in the house not far away. There's no need to pay them any attention; they won't be able to find our location."

After giving instructions to her teammates behind her, Su Rui planned to be the first to climb over the low wall.

"Wait a minute, you're the captain, how can you be the first one to go? Who will take command if you die?"

Wis'adel pulled Su Rui aside and whispered in his ear, "For His Highness's sake, I'll lead the charge for you."

Then, Wis'adel was the first to climb over the low wall. In Su Rui's Scanning Vision, she did not disobey orders, but instead signaled in this direction after checking.

Then, Su Rui led the remaining people up the stairs one by one.

Compared to the "heavy" defenses at the entrance, the town's interior was less guarded. Su Rui and Wis'adel strolled through the streets as if they were just browsing, looking at the trinkets sold by the Sarkaz vendors along the way.

Outcast wore a cowboy hat and was surrounded in the middle so as not to attract attention.

However, as they walked down a street, Su Rui's wandering gaze was stopped by Wis'adel, who then led him toward his destination.

"You're awake. Don't get distracted while on a mission. Once Your Highness has taken this town, you can explore as you please."

"Of course I know, I just glanced at it."

Su Rui angrily broke free from Wis'adel's grasp and led his men to the most heavily guarded part of the town.

This is a large courtyard. Compared to the somewhat scattered sentry posts at the entrance of a town, the sentry posts here are much more densely packed, since a courtyard is still much smaller than a town.

Su Rui led Wis'adel and the others behind a wall, where they could avoid the guards' watchful eyes.

"What do we do next? It seems there's no way to infiltrate this place?"

"...Give me your explosives." Su Rui thought for a moment, then reached out to Wis'adel, demanding her usual explosives.

Don't tell me you're planning to go in alone.

Wis'adel crossed his arms, not handing over the item as Su Rui had requested, but instead glancing at his teammates beside him:

"Even if someone really needed to do this kind of heroic act, it wouldn't be your turn."

Su Rui ignored Wis'adel's words, simply rolled her eyes, used her Scanning Vision to locate the explosives on Wis'adel's body, took three, and then gave instructions to the others:

"Keep an eye on her. Once you get the signal, take out as many guards as possible. I've marked all the targets on the battle map. Take a look at the scan images on your phones."

After saying that, Su Rui took a step back and walked directly into the light of the sentry post.

"What the hell are you trying to do, Kazdel?"

Wis'adel instinctively reached out to stop Su Rui, but this time Su Rui cleverly distanced herself. To prevent Wis'adel from hindering their actions, Outcast, who had been reaching out, also had to reach out and grab Wis'adel.

"Let's observe the situation first, and then cooperate with him if problems arise."

"What's there to say? If he just goes straight in like that, a fight is bound to break out. Hopefully, he won't get killed by those guys."

As Wis'adel said this, he reached out and touched his explosives, preparing for battle, then his expression changed. "When did he steal them from me?"

However, Wis'adel had no time to be surprised and turned his gaze to Su Rui.

However, to their surprise, before Su Rui could even step into the light, he vanished into thin air as if he had been teleported away.

"What's going on? This guy has this trick up his sleeve!"

Wis'adel breathed a sigh of relief, but was still somewhat dissatisfied. "He should have said so earlier if he had this ability. Only this guy is the captain."

Su Rui could hear what Wis'adel said through the Scanning Vision, but that didn't affect his mood at the moment.

After all, being able to walk through a tight defense as if strolling through a garden, without even the guys next to him realizing he was there, truly put Su Rui in a good mood.

It had been a while since Su Rui last used the High-Speed Holographic Camouflage. He had almost forgotten about the function after putting it away, but unexpectedly, he could use it again today.

While Su Rui infiltrated the courtyard, Wis'adel and his men began studying the map Su Rui had given them. Every enemy in the courtyard was marked by Su Rui, including their real-time location.

Such intelligence can often be life-saving for operators in combat.

So no matter how willful Su Rui's personality was, Wis'adel had to acknowledge his importance at this moment.

After evading numerous guards, Su Rui made his way to the basement where the Sarkaz, who were about to be sold, were being held.

A shipping container in a warehouse was used as a disguise; opening the container door revealed a passageway leading underground.

Perhaps because of the heavy metal door in front of Su Rui, there were no guards stationed here.

Unfortunately, this heavy door is powered by both mechanical and electrical means.

Su Rui glanced outside, then looked at the heavy door in front of her. Opening the door would inevitably produce a loud, jarring sound.

Prince Kazdel: 313 I only know the beer hall speech

Since the enemy would be attracted no matter what, it was time for the explosives that Su Rui had secretly planted while he was wandering outside to come into play.

The three explosives that were taken from Wis'adel earlier, plus the explosives that had always been in Su Rui's System Space, meant that almost every mercenary in this courtyard now had a bomb near them.

However, Su Rui couldn't perfectly hide all the bombs she had set, and the Sarkaz's physical abilities were among the best in Terra.

Therefore, these bombs might not necessarily kill them.

Su Rui also needed to ensure that the hostages inside could escape safely, and then spread the name of the military commissioner behind this matter.

With this in mind, Su Rui first sent a message to Wis'adel and the others, whose attention was still partly on their phones checking the intelligence:

"Get ready, the operation is about to begin."

As soon as Su Rui spoke, the bomb planted in the yard exploded, waking the entire town with its flashes and roar.

However, the Sarkaz who actually lived in the town were not interested in this, and in this situation, it was safest for them to pretend they knew nothing.

Meanwhile, Su Rui took advantage of the explosion and chaos to initiate the opening procedure for the heavy metal door.

Wis'adel glanced at the courtyard, now brightly lit but with its alarms disabled, and casually tossed a few bombs inside. "This must be the signal Su Rui was talking about," he said. "Perfect timing, it's time for us to move in."

The mercenaries guarding the compound weren't fools; they immediately realized that whoever it was, the target was most likely the "goods" locked in their basement.

"Take a team to check the basement! We absolutely cannot let anything inside escape!"

Although the person who gave the order was shot in the head by Outcast immediately after speaking, some people still heard him and rushed towards the basement.
