"Big Brother Chao, you're right."
A 'Ji thought about it and said, "But you were so fierce to him just now that you nearly slit your neck. It's normal for him to call for reinforcements to capture you, right?"
"The manpower, weapons, and operation methods used to capture and kill people are different," Meng Chao explained.
"If the gangs hadn't been infiltrated by the abnormal beasts and just wanted to lock down Leprosy Village, they would definitely want to capture me when they found out that I escaped. They would tie me up and disinfect me before sending me to Saber Jin Wanhao and the other gang leaders for questioning. During this process, they wouldn't be averse to coming into contact with me. In fact, they would take the initiative to ask me for important information.
"But if the gangs have already been infiltrated by the abnormal beasts, they would definitely not allow me to leave this place alive. They would definitely try to kill me at the first sign of trouble. In fact, they might even bring heavy artillery to destroy the entire building to prevent me from coming into contact with the outside world.
"So, we just need to look at their reactions later to know how far the abnormal beasts' scheme has progressed.
"Also, I need to talk to the higher-ups of the gangs. There are two ways. The first is for me to go to him, and the second is for him to go to me. Regardless of whether they want to capture me or kill me, the person commanding the operation won't be a nobody. Through this commander, we might be able to meet Saber Jin Wanhao."
A 'Ji was stunned when he heard this. He stared at Meng Chao with a strange gaze and mumbled, "Wow, Big Brother Chao, you're so sinister. You're completely different from the image you created on social media!"
"I have no choice. If it's possible, I also want to be an innocent and honest normal university student."
Meng Chao sighed. "Unfortunately, if I want to survive in this dangerous world, I have to be sinister. You should understand this better than I do, right?" A 'Ji sighed.
A 'Ji was a little stunned. He did not seem to understand what Meng Chao meant.
Meng Chao cast him a sidelong glance before he focused his attention on the street dozens of meters away from the window.
"They're here."
Meng Chao narrowed his eyes.
Dong Sibao returned very quickly.
There was also a mini ambulance behind him.
A few people in white hooded cloaks and gas masks got out of the ambulance. There was even a red cross on their cloaks.
"It's a doctor!"
"Looks like the abnormal beasts don't have the time to carry out their scheme in the lair. We'll be able to meet Saber Jin Wanhao soon!"
"Don't worry, let's wait and see."
"Based on the characteristics of doctors, these people's muscles are a little too developed, and their footsteps are too heavy. They look like they're wearing super alloy armor that weighs dozens of kilograms.
"Fine. Even if those 'doctors' are all fitness enthusiasts and armor collectors, how do you explain the bulging objects on their backs? If they are not heavy guns and swords, are they large medical boxes?"
"Eh?"
Su Mulian was a little dumbfounded. She focused her gaze and noticed that the people in white coats were indeed different from her and the doctors she usually came into contact with.
The three men in white robes moved forward in a triangular formation. With every step they took, they would quickly observe their surroundings, like the heads of venomous snakes that were on high alert.
"This is the standard triangular assault team formation for street battles."
"They're not doctors, but well-trained killing machines."
A 'Ji tugged at Meng Chao's cloak and whispered, "Big Brother Chao, there's someone there too!"
Meng Chao and Su Mulian looked at the street to the right of the building at the same time.
They saw another group of armed men dressed in camouflage fighting suits. They were armed with live ammunition, and they tiptoed forward to surround the side of the building.
The building across them also reflected the light from a high-magnification scope. Clearly, there were sharpshooters in control of the high ground.
There were also a lot of armed men gathering at the perimeter. When their leader shouted, the heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft cannons that were originally aimed at Leprosy Village on the other side of the river turned around and aimed at the building Meng Chao had just hidden in.
Aside from that, Meng Chao also sensed a few powerful presences on the walls of the buildings nearby. They quickly closed in on his previous hiding spot like geckos.
If he had really stayed there like an idiot and waited for Dong Sibao to bring a doctor to save him, he would have fallen into a trap filled with blades.
"Judging by their stance, do you think that these people just want to capture me?" Meng Chao smiled coldly.
A 'Ji and Su Mulian looked at each other.
Even if they were blind, they could sense the murderous intent that filled the air from the weapons and guns of the armed men.
These people had never thought about capturing him alive.
Right from the start, they wanted to kill him without mercy!
But why?
"Even if the abnormal beast had a way to bewitch quite a number of the middle and higher management members of the gangs like it did to Bai Shan, it's impossible for it to bewitch everyone in just half a day, right?"
Meng Chao mumbled to himself. "No matter what, I'm a big influencer with millions of fans on social media. If they know that I'm the culprit, why would they listen to the abnormal beast and kill me?"
He might only be able to find the answer to this question once he captured the commander.
The mantis stalked the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it. When the enemy thought that they had "quietly" approached the building Meng Chao had been hiding in, the real Meng Chao was coldly observing everyone in the darkness above their heads in an attempt to figure out who the commander was.
Fortunately, the commander did not hide his tracks. Instead, he gave orders in a loud voice and moved forward to give orders.
However, when Meng Chao saw the man's face clearly, he was stunned for a total of three seconds.
"Rattlesnake Xiang Wei?"
Meng Chao remembered that he was one of the powerful fighters in Poison Scorpion. His cultivation realm was at Heaven Realm, which was a rare sight in the lair.
More importantly, he was one of the powerful fighters who had entered Leprosy Village with the hunting squad in the morning and died in the explosion of the super crystal bomb!
Just as Meng Chao expected, when he observed him closely, he noticed that Rattlesnake Xiang Wei's hair had been burned off. His bald head and face were covered in ugly scars that had just formed scabs. His right arm seemed to have been crushed, and he had a strengthened protective sleeve made of alloy fixed to his chest. His expression was dark and murderous, as if he wanted to skin Meng Chao alive.
By the looks of it, he had indeed been injured in the explosion of the Deification Capsule pharmacy.
He had just left Leprosy Village in time.
But this puzzled Meng Chao.
'He was with me in the morning and went into Leprosy Village to hunt abnormal beasts. Why is it that in just half a day, he turned around and wants to kill me to silence me?'
Meng Chao's first thought was that he had been dragged down by the abnormal beasts.
Just like Bai Shan.
But when he looked at the people he commanded, they had all sorts of equipment, and different emblems were painted on them.
Poison Scorpion was a ferocious Twin-tailed Scorpion.
There was Black Bone's crossed skeleton, and in the middle was a sharp sword that could pierce a person's heart.
There was also Golden Tooth, which had huge fangs that looked like golden horns.
The powerful gangs in the lair had practically all sent people to surround and kill Meng Chao. Rattlesnake Xiang Wei should not be that influential, right?
Meng Chao quickly assessed the strength of his enemies.
Even if Rattlesnake Xiang Wei had lost an arm and his cultivation realm had plummeted due to the explosion of the super crystal bomb, he could not remain in Heaven Realm.
There were still people at the peak of Earth Realm who had a discount.
Otherwise, he would not have been sent to the frontlines to command the troops. Instead, he would have been lying in a medical cabin.
Meng Chao might have been healed by Su Mulian, but he had not recovered 100% of his fighting strength.
It was too much for him to quietly take Rattlesnake Xiang Wei away and shake off his pursuers in front of so many armed men and hundreds of rifles.
However, at that moment, Meng Chao noticed a person with a rather frail body but a huge head. There were spirit tattoos at the corners of his eyes and temples, and he was talking to Rattlesnake Xiang Wei. The armed personnel beside him were very respectful to him.
If Meng Chao's guess was correct, this person should be a strategist or think tank in the gangs. He mainly used spirit energy to stimulate his brain and increase his logical thinking and deduction abilities so that he could come up with plans for the gangs.
Even though they were superhumans, they were just like auxiliary occupations and researchers. Their fighting strength was nothing special.
Meng Chao knew that this sort of person would at most practice some mind attack secret techniques.
However, since half of his soul had returned from the apocalypse, he was the least afraid of mind attacks.
"It's you then …"
He saw that the three "doctors" had already reached the entrance of the building where he had been hiding.
The tactical squads, snipers, and superhumans around them took their positions one after another.
The air was so hot that one spark was enough to cause an explosion.
Meng Chao said to A 'Ji and Su Mulian, "A' Ji, when the first explosion is heard, immediately bring Ms. Mulian to the underground tunnel you found. We'll meet underground!"
Before his voice faded away, he had already charged out like an arrow fired from a bow.
He knocked on the door a few times at the entrance of the building, but there was no response. The three "doctors" released their spirit energy to scan the place carefully, but they did not hear any breathing or heartbeats from inside. They realized that something was off.
The "doctor" who walked at the back raised his arm and swung it down to signal the tactical squad and snipers behind him. "Fire!" Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In an instant, dozens of gunshots shot out from the highest spots. The dense barrage of bullets was like a burning storm. Not only did it shatter the windows of more than ten rooms on the first, second, and third floors of the building, a large number of armor-piercing bullets also shot through the reinforced concrete walls. The shrapnel brought with it a large amount of shattered stones, and the rooms were reduced to a mess.
Right when the burning storm swept past, four well-trained tactical squads jumped into the shattered building from different angles at the same time.
The superhumans, including Rattlesnake Xiang Wei, had intense eyes. Their gazes were filled with spirit energy as they carefully searched the steaming ruins for the weakest heat and magnetic field released by any living being.
Unfortunately, aside from the air, they only hit the smoke grenades, stun grenades, flash grenades, and a large amount of flammable and explosive monster materials and crystal fragments.
