Night raid on the instructor
It was nine thirty at night.
Fang Yuan left the library, stepped into the night, and activated his Night Walker ability.
Star Power covered his body, gradually blending him into the darkness.
In dim corners with poor visibility, he was almost impossible to detect.
Next, Fang Yuan tried running and exercising vigorously to test Night Walker's concealment.
His conclusion was that when he moved quickly while concealing himself with Night Walker, the naked eye could see a dark shadow moving.
In fact, even if he went unseen while moving quickly, his footsteps could still be heard.
Infiltration had always been a slow process.
So this did not really count as a drawback.
After familiarizing himself with Night Walker's effects, Fang Yuan prepared to sneak into Wei Hailong's residence.
If not for the Awakening Inducer incident, Fang Yuan would not have taken this risk tonight.
But someone had given Xiaozhu an Awakening Inducer, and she had nearly died.
Although her condition had stabilized, the Spear of God member hiding in Donghai would definitely not stop there.
At noon today, he had also seen Wei Hailong looking up information on Awakening Inducers.
So this matter had to be resolved as soon as possible.
Fang Yuan was not sure whether Wei Hailong was a Spear of God member, but the possibility was strong.
So he planned to sneak into his residence to investigate. If he confirmed that Wei Hailong was a Spear of God member, he would have to take his chances.
In short, he could not let Xiaozhu fall into danger again.
Hidden in the darkness, Fang Yuan took out the Glock pistol and inspected it.
This was the gun he had obtained from Qinglang.
In fact, the Glock was the pistol terrorists started with in Counter-Strike.
Despite being given away for free at the start of Counter-Strike, the Glock was actually a very handy pistol in real life, with an excellent grip and trigger response.
Fang Yuan quickly removed the magazine, checked the ammunition, reinserted the magazine, chambered a round, and tucked it back into his waistband.
Then he looked up at a window on the fourth floor.
That was Wei Hailong's residence, a small one-bedroom apartment.
The window was open. The living room lights were off, while the adjoining bedroom light was on.
Fang Yuan silenced his phone, put on a black face mask, then activated Night Walker and slipped into the building through the darkness, taking the stairs to the fourth floor.
Then he climbed out through the stairwell window and made his way along the outside to Wei Hailong's window.
Gripping the windowsill with both hands, he first peered inside to make sure no one was in the living room, then quietly climbed in.
With his 30 points of agility, he landed without a sound.
Just as he was about to approach the bedroom.
Footsteps came from inside, the sound of leather shoes striking the tiles particularly crisp.
Fang Yuan hurriedly hid in the sofa's shadow. With Night Walker's concealment, he could not be seen even at close range.
Tap, tap, tap...
Accompanied by the footsteps, Wei Hailong emerged from the bedroom without noticing the extra person in his living room.
He went straight into the bathroom, and the swishing sound of toothbrushing came from inside.
It was nine fifty now. Brushing his teeth at this hour probably meant he was getting ready for bed.
Lights out and asleep at ten-an exceptionally regular routine.
Fang Yuan stood up and entered Wei Hailong's bedroom with barely audible footsteps, approaching the desk.
He saw a document resembling a work log on the desk, with a line of text plainly written on it.
"Nothing unusual with Fang Zhenguo's family. No sign of the item lost twenty years ago..."
Fang Yuan's gaze darkened. He picked up the sheet, tucked it into his pocket, then walked quietly to the bathroom doorway.
Leaning against the wall outside the bathroom, he drew his pistol, put on the sunglasses he had bought just that noon, held his breath, and waited patiently.
Three minutes later, Wei Hailong finished washing up, switched off the bathroom light, and came out.
Fang Yuan silently pressed the pistol against the back of his head and said in a low voice, "Don't move."
Wei Hailong stiffened, a sense of mortal danger surging to the top of his head.
He had never expected anyone to be able to sneak up behind him without his noticing a thing.
"Who are you? What do you want?" he asked, forcing himself to remain calm.
"Put your hands up, and don't even think about using Star Power Flash. I'm wearing sunglasses, and I guarantee I can shoot faster than you."
The last time Fang Yuan had checked Wei Hailong's attributes in the library, he had seen that his ability was Star Power Flash, with an effect similar to a flashbang.
That was why he had specifically bought a pair of sunglasses at noon.
"Who exactly are you?" Wei Hailong was even more puzzled.
Few people in Donghai City knew the name of his ability. Even the school did not have accurate information on him.
"You only need to answer my questions. You don't get to ask any."
As Fang Yuan spoke, he disengaged the pistol's safety, letting Wei Hailong clearly hear the click.
Just then.
Wei Hailong suddenly tilted his head away from the muzzle, spun around, and struck like lightning, grabbing the pistol and twisting its muzzle thirty degrees aside.
From sight alone, Fang Yuan could be certain that his agility had reached at least 39 points.
Fang Yuan currently had only 30 points of agility and could not match his speed alone, so Wei Hailong had caught hold of the pistol.
Wei Hailong had clearly received professional training. The moment he seized the pistol, he formed his other hand into a knife-hand and chopped toward Fang Yuan's neck.
Fang Yuan had prepared for this situation.
He immediately abandoned Night Walker and copied Advanced Agility Enhancement from his Star Power watch.
His agility instantly soared by 40%, rising from 30 points to 42.
Then he raised a hand to block the knife-hand strike and began struggling for the pistol.
Thump! Smack! Thump! Smack!
The two exchanged over a dozen moves using the Military Physical Combat Technique.
Fang Yuan had the advantage in agility, while Wei Hailong had the advantage in strength.
However, Wei Hailong was more experienced in close combat.
Fang Yuan was at a disadvantage, but fortunately, he kept a tight hold on the pistol's grip, retaining the initiative.
After exchanging over a dozen moves, Wei Hailong also realized that this "night raider" was weaker than he was, so he tried to forcibly seize the pistol with his superior strength.
Fang Yuan's 26 points of strength truly could not withstand Wei Hailong's 30.
The pistol was about to change hands.
Fang Yuan decisively released the pistol and, with his exceptional agility, grabbed the vital point on Wei Hailong's wrist and twisted hard, sending the pistol flying.
Clatter!
The pistol flew away and slid into a corner.
Wei Hailong also swung his hand with the momentum, tearing off Fang Yuan's mask.
At that moment, Fang Yuan no longer had Night Walker's effects on him.
So Wei Hailong immediately recognized the "night raider" and exclaimed in surprise, "Fang Yuan, why is it you?"
While he was stunned, Fang Yuan performed a forward roll, picked up the pistol in the corner, rose, and aimed at him, barking, "Don't move!"
Wei Hailong did not understand why his own student had come to attack him. Frowning, he asked, "Fang Yuan, what are you doing? I'm your instructor!"
Along with his surprise at the "night raider's" identity, he was also astonished by the strength Fang Yuan had suddenly displayed.
He had never imagined that his student already possessed the strength to face him head-on.
