Palermo, Sicily.
The Caesar Convention ushered in the second day of the competition. With the end of the first day's elimination, the next few days would be a direct battle between mercenaries worth fighting.
The news of Yang Cheng's return and Jane's rescue back to Wales excited the people below.
Soran seemed to have a lot of white hairs in the past two days, but when he picked Yang Cheng up to the Colosseum early in the morning, he finally smiled.
However, Yang Cheng did not let them stop the investigation of this incident. Yang Cheng needed to find out which organization planned the kidnapping of Jane and created the FURY incident.
Fortunately, with the involvement of North Buyeo, the clues were not too vague. Yang Cheng asked Makedon and others to find as many related forces as possible in secret, so that they could catch them all in one fell swoop.
In Yang Cheng's view, there was no need for any forces that dared to threaten his woman to exist at all.
When the morning mercenary battle began, Yang Cheng was already sitting in the VIP viewing room with Cai Ning and Qiangwei.
For Qiangwei, who had been out all night with Christine, Yang Cheng had to admire the woman's purchasing ability. When they returned to the hotel in the morning, big and small bags of things filled the trunk of the car.
Seeing that the Sea Eagles members had not yet fought, Yang Cheng couldn't help but ask the red-faced woman who was still in the excitement of last night's shopping, "Baby Qiangwei, what did you buy last night?"
Qiangwei was a little embarrassed to speak, and her eyes evaded, "Just … some local specialties."
"Local specialties?" Yang Cheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you interested in those?"
"Qiangwei bought a lot of sexy underwear, and there are some particularly bold styles …"
Before Qiangwei could say it, her "bad friend" Christine on the side had already started to expose it.
"Christine!!!"
Qiangwei was so angry that her cheeks turned red. She hurriedly reached out to cover the woman's big mouth!
Fortunately, only the Stern siblings were in the VIP room, and they were all familiar with each other. If Ron, Sauron, and a few other big men were here, Rose would go crazy.
Christine realized that she had let it slip. She had promised Qiangwei not to tell anyone about it. She stuck out her tongue and shut her mouth.
Cai Ning, on the other hand, looked at Qiangwei curiously with a slight smile on her lips. However, she didn't think that Qiangwei was deliberately targeting her. She just found it interesting.
An evil smile appeared on Yang Cheng's face. He reached out and pinched Qiangwei's soft waist. "So that's how it is. Then you should buy it. The more the better."
"I … I didn't buy a lot …"
"I know, I'm just saying." Yang Cheng's smile deepened. He moved closer to the woman's lustrous ear and whispered, "Can you wear it for me when we get back?"
Qiangwei felt the heat burning her neck. Who in this room couldn't hear what you said? And you purposely lowered your voice.
Feeling her whole body go numb, the woman subconsciously nodded.
"Good girl, I'll take a few pictures of you later." Yang Cheng was satisfied.
Alice, who was sitting on the other side, leaned on Stern's shoulder. Looking at Yang Cheng's shameless expression, she couldn't help but giggle. "Hades, I really can't understand how your woman fell for you with such a dirty look."
Yang Chen didn't mind at all. He didn't blush nor did his heart skip a beat. Shaking his finger at her, he said, "Siblings like you don't understand our pure feelings at all."
While they were chatting, it was finally Sea Eagles' turn on the ring in the center of the field.
The opponent of this knockout match was the Odin Mercenaries from Northern Europe. They were active near the Arctic Circle all year round. Most of their members were retired elite soldiers of the SEAL Force or Northern European psychics.
Because of time constraints, before the top 16, the winner would be decided in one match.
The Odin Mercenaries sent a strong and vigorous white man. He carried a spear-like metal weapon that looked like a harpoon on his back. He jumped onto the ring with ease.
On the other hand, the member of the Sea Eagles Sect was a dark-haired Southeast Asian woman with wheat-colored skin and a seemingly delicate figure. She had an average appearance, wore a black leather coat, and held two dark silver daggers in her hands.
In the competition of the Caesar Tournament, the use of firearms was not prohibited, but almost no one would use them. Firstly, firearms would affect the spectators on the sidelines, and special protection measures were needed.
Secondly, in a battle of this level, especially when most of the contestants had special abilities and ultimate skills, bullets would be of little use. On the other hand, solo combat was what mercenaries needed to do the most, so cold weapons could better reflect one's true strength.
"This match, Wiese from the Odin Mercenaries versus Lin from the Sea Eagles!"
Following the announcer's loud announcement, the scene began to heat up again. The cheers of the audience were like a tsunami.
The female member, Lin, was actually an assassin from Zero. However, as an assassin organization, Zero wasn't allowed to participate, so Lin could only temporarily join as a member of the Sea Eagles.
After the bell rang, the match began!
Lin attacked first. She moved at an extremely high speed and approached Wiese in a snake-like manner. Her daggers were like wings that were spread out, drawing two waves of air.
Wiese had removed the harpoon on his back at some point. In the mercenary world, it was normal to have all kinds of strange weapons, and it was up to personal preference.
When the spear was stirred into a circle, Lin's movement suddenly stopped. He moved away from the spear's range and lowered his body quickly, like a dark shadow gliding across the ground. His speed suddenly increased, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Whis!
The moment his figure appeared, Whise pulled on the handle of the spear with his right hand and pulled out a silver chain!
"Clang!"
The two dark-silver daggers attacked from below, but they were blocked by the silver chain!
Lin didn't expect the harpoon to have a mechanism, and she immediately dodged!
The moment she dodged, the spear made use of the recoil to turn around and almost hit her body!
It was just a cover, but the speed was so fast that the audience shouted in excitement. Many people wouldn't know what was going on if they didn't see it in slow motion.
Wiese shouted and pulled the chain, making the harpoon look like a flexible whip. However, the trajectory was even harder to predict than a whip. It was like countless silver lines and interfaces were dancing on the stage!
Seeing that it was difficult to get close, Lin's eyes flashed coldly. She dove down and suddenly disappeared from the stage!
The cheers of the audience stopped. Everyone thought that they were seeing things, but many experienced experts immediately realized that something was wrong!
Suddenly, seven or eight shadows appeared on the arena. They surrounded Whis from the ground and closed in on him!
"Shadow technique?" Yang Chen, who was watching from the stands, was also stunned.
The people around him could see what was going on. Cai Ning was known for her speed, so she said, "It's an assassination technique that uses a special movement technique and extreme speed."
"That's right. A few years ago, I saw an assassination master use it in Zero. When it was used to its fullest, it was like a shadow that covered the sky. Seems like it was her master. But Lin is still young, it's good that she's this skilled." Yang Cheng nodded approvingly.
As he spoke, Lin's figure had already appeared behind Wiese. Her daggers drew a bloodthirsty gash as she moved diagonally upwards to seal the artery on Wiese's neck.
It was too late for Wiese to turn around. Unexpectedly, the chain in his hand shook and the harpoon fell vertically!
As long as Lin followed this trajectory, even if the dagger was on Wiese's neck, it would still be a draw because she wouldn't be able to dodge the attack.
Seeing this, Lin expressionlessly raised the other short blade in his left hand and threw it with a backhand!
After the sound of metal colliding, the harpoon was knocked away by the dagger!
At the same time, the dagger in Lin's right hand was pressed against Wiese's neck!
Wiese didn't expect this to happen. He had underestimated the beauty of dual wielding. Seeing that he was going to lose, he admitted defeat like a gentleman.
As the audience erupted in applause, Lin quietly put away her dagger and walked off the stage.
Seeing that Sea Eagles had successfully advanced to the next round, it was already time for lunch break. Yang Chen wasn't too interested in watching these games that weren't exciting to him, so he immediately patted his butt and prepared to leave.
The Stern siblings and Christen were only here to see how the Giants were doing. Since there was nothing else to see, they naturally planned to leave together.
But just as they were about to go out for a walk and have a meal, as soon as they walked out of the VIP room, a few people coming from the corridor at the door made Rose and Christen stop in their tracks.
They saw a short and fat Asian man in a suit and tie, who looked particularly solemn, talking to a few white men. They were obviously government officials, and behind them were a large number of bodyguards.
This middle-aged man was the Japanese man they met at the lingerie store last night and was knocked down by Christen. Even the bodyguards behind him looked the same.
When the group of people walked past them, the Japanese man lingered on Qiangwei and the other girls for a while, but he quickly walked past them.
"What's wrong? Do you guys know each other?"
Yang Cheng asked in confusion. Cai Ning and the Stern siblings didn't know what was going on either.
Christen and Qiangwei, on the other hand, frowned in confusion. They didn't know what was going on.
"Not really …" Qiangwei said hesitantly, "But … that person, why does it seem like he's never seen us before …"
