Hela sat at the table in the private room, swinging her legs as she popped snacks into her mouth.
After finishing all the snacks on the table, Hela reached into her stomach and pulled out several strangely shaped weapons to examine.
Another private room.
Yuliu leaned against the window with her eyes tightly closed.
The next moment, he suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes, looked at the closed door, and slowly reached into his pocket, pulling out a Desert Eagle.
He pointed his pistol at the door and slowly approached with Wusheng steps.
Yuliu stopped when the muzzle of his gun was pressed against the door, holding his breath and listening carefully to the sounds outside.
Several extremely faint footsteps could be heard slowly approaching from outside the door.
If it weren't for Yuliu's exceptional senses honed through years of working as a mercenary, he probably wouldn't have heard such a subtle sound at all.
At the same time, he also determined that the other party was either a professional assassin or a mercenary like himself.
Judging from the footsteps outside, there was more than one person coming.
Since their strength is still unknown, Yuliu dares not make any rash moves.
They could only roughly aim their gun at the other person's position through the door, ready to shoot them at any moment.
Just then, the footsteps parted, and Yuliu realized that there were actually three people approaching.
They each headed towards their own, Hela's, and Tuote's private rooms, clearly having already divided up their tasks.
"Damn it, we've been targeted."
Yuliu cursed inwardly, slowly placing his finger on the trigger while his other hand gripped the flashbang at his waist.
The footsteps outside the door stopped in front of it. Without hesitation, Yuliu pulled the trigger.
Bang--!!!
A burst of fire erupted from the short gun barrel, carrying a supersonic bullet that pierced the wooden door, blasting the person behind it to smithereens.
Wood chips and blood mist, along with the flames, bombarded the opposite wall.
Seeing that he had killed his opponent with a single shot, Yuliu did not hesitate at all. He lunged forward, rolled, and rushed out.
Suddenly, he pointed the still-smoking gun at Tuote's doorway.
The mercenary, who had his hand on the doorknob at Tuote entrance, stared blankly at the scene.
Before he could react, a bullet, carrying immense kinetic energy, blasted his upper body into pieces.
Having done all this, he didn't stop, and turned his gaze back to Hela's private room.
But seeing the door already open, Yuliu felt a sense of foreboding.
He quickly pulled a flashbang from his waist and threw it directly into Hela's room.
He covered his eyes, grabbed his gun, and rushed inside.
"Don't move!"
Yuliu shouted and pointed his gun at the only sound he could hear.
Hela, who was gnawing on meat, suddenly stopped and raised her hands, which were holding her head, above her head.
Yuliu his hand from his eyes, stared at the scene before him, and was instantly stunned.
Hela's hands and mouth were covered in blood, and a head lay on her legs.
His head still bore an excited expression; he probably thought he was about to succeed until his death.
"You... solved it yourself?"
"Mmm." Hela nodded twice, chewing on some meat.
"He was at the ' Ten Thousand Stars ' realm, so we didn't damage his body; we kept it to eat."
After saying that, Hela cupped her head and took a bite.
"Keep his head for now, don't eat it."
"Why."
"It'll be useful later."
Yuliu put away his gun, sat down wearily at the table where Hela was sitting, and took out a cigarette to smoke.
"Call--"
As he exhaled a puff of smoke, Yuliu's expression became extremely solemn.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Tuote pushed open the door and frowned slightly at the scene before him.
He glanced at Hela and Yuliu again, and seeing that they were both alright, he asked them what was wrong.
"What's going on? Is someone watching us?"
Yuliu took another drag of his cigarette, then stubbed it out, put it in his pocket, and stood up abruptly.
"We are indeed being targeted; someone has hired mercenaries to kill us."
"Should we leave now?"
Tuote glanced back at Weier, who was huddled on the bed trembling, and at his own computer screen, which was still flickering.
"Yes, we are indeed retreating, but before that, I think we should first find out who wants to kill us."
Yuliu took out his phone and opened an encrypted website.
"This is a website on the dark web specifically for hiring superhumans; that's where I work as a mercenary."
"Wait a minute," Hela suddenly noticed the problem, "You're a member of the Light God Society, you're not short of money, why do you still want to be a mercenary?"
Personal pursuits.
"Oh."
He then turned on the front-facing camera and pointed it at his head where he had been bitten.
"[X] Check this mercenary's information on the dark web, and then find out who hired him for this mission."
His phone screen flickered, then turned into a large red X after a moment.
"OK..."
The X flickered slightly, and then all of the person's information popped up on the screen.
"We've found all the information about this person, but due to the nature of the dark web and the fact that the person who hired them used a virtual account, I'm unable to find their information..."
As if he had anticipated this, Yuliu casually turned off his phone screen and put it in his pocket.
I glanced at the night sky outside the window, which had turned pitch black again, walked over, and opened the window.
"Let's retreat. They already know our location. It's best to avoid them when we don't know who they are."
Hela picked up the head and took a bite. "No problem."
Yuliu tore down the curtains and bed sheets, tied them into a knot, threw them out the window, and then jumped down himself.
Hela also tumbled out of the window.
Because Tuote was with Weier, he could only slide down the rope that the Yuliu had thrown down.
Although City A was very lively at night, they were not discovered because there were few people around the window from which they jumped.
They slipped away Wusheng, masked by the noise of the bar.
When the bar owner came to see their private room first, he looked at the mess in front of him and felt something break inside his heart.
A taxi drives alone in the night sky outside the city, heading towards the only patch of light in the darkness.
squeak--
The taxi braked at the city entrance of City A, stopping in a cloud of dust.
"Alright, the foreigners have arrived."
The unshaven taxi driver looked at the young man in the back who had been keeping his head down and gestured for him to get out of the car.
The young man kept his head down for a few seconds before opening the car door and getting out.
"Ah... a total of eighty-nine."
The driver rolled down his window and reached out for money, and the other person actually pulled out a hundred dollars and gave it to him.
"Sigh, even if it's in US dollars, this is still a bit much."
The latter, however, acted as if he hadn't heard, turned around, and walked straight into the city.
"The pass, paper or electronic version, is acceptable..."
Just as the guards were about to step forward to stop him, his eyes suddenly became unfocused, and when he regained his senses, the young man had already disappeared before his eyes.
In the bustling city, the figure in the black coat and hat moved Wusheng like a ghost.
Finally, he stopped at the entrance of the Fallen God Group.
With most of her face covered by a scarf, she slowly raised her head, looked at the enormous building, and sighed.
"It brought back bad memories..."
