Before Song Jinbo completely woke up, A 'Ji fled into the darkness in time.
Song Jinbo bit the tip of his tongue, using the pain to keep himself awake.
He also heard the concentrated gunfire and cries of murder not far away. He sensed the spirit energy ripples that were like two waves crashing into each other. He did not understand what was going on, and when he looked at Meng Chao, his eyes were filled with puzzlement.
"Rattlesnake Xiang Wei's pursuers were ambushed by monsters," Meng Chao explained patiently.
Song Jinbo's eyes widened.
His hostile gaze seemed to be saying, "Weren't you the one who lured Xiang Wei and the others into the ambush?"
"I know you won't believe me no matter what I say, but you're not blind or deaf. To be able to become the manager of Glory Entertainment, your brain shouldn't be rusty. You can see, listen, and think for yourself."
"I don't have time to care about you now, so I can only cast you aside. If you want to run, of course you can, but I'm going to remind you for the second time, and it's also the last time. The lair — No, all of Dragon City is facing destruction, and the key to victory might not be at the perimeter of Dragon City, but right in front of us.
"Tell me, do you have a wife and children?"
Song Jinbo remained silent.
However, his gaze clearly trembled.
"Looks like there is."
Meng Chao said. "Then think about your wife and children. Don't do something that will make your enemies happy. When your wife and children end up in the monsters' mouths, it'll be too late for regrets!"
With that, he threw Song Jinbo aside.
Song Jinbo moved his limbs slowly. When he saw that Meng Chao really did not intend to kill him, he looked around, and the puzzlement and hesitation in his eyes grew stronger.
Meng Chao ignored him and went forward with Su Mulian.
The corridors ahead were crisscrossed, and the walls were filled with observation and firing holes. It was like a maze of slaughter.
It was very suitable for ambushes and chaotic battles.
In fact, when the underground space was first built, they had considered its military use.
What was the original intention?
What if the ground was completely occupied by zombies and monsters?
Humans are going to hide in the underground shelters?
And he used these "killing mazes" to deal with enemies with low intelligence.
However, the threat of zombies and monsters was decreasing day by day, and the different types of killing mazes were gradually abandoned.
But now?
Instead, it became a slaughterhouse for exotic beasts to ambush humans.
When they turned the last corner, both of them stepped on wet blood and sticky organs.
In front of them was a hellish scene.
The tunnel was filled with smoke so thick that one couldn't even see their own fingers.
The poisonous gas that tainted the blood.
Rattlesnake Xiang Wei's men were caught off guard.
Ambushed by a mysterious force?
He was utterly defeated in an instant?
They were utterly defeated.
Severed limbs were everywhere on the ground?
And struggling in pain in the smoke and poisonous gas?
An armed man on the verge of death.
The pursuers who were still standing were dumbfounded. Their heads were dizzy, and they could not tell if they were friends or foes. Their mental strength indices plummeted to the bottom.
They pulled the trigger like crazy?
Spraying bullets and fear in vain?
Apart from creating a series of sparks on his teammates' motorized armor and the wall?
It was impossible to deal any effective damage to the ambusher.
Meng Chao minimized his breathing, heartbeat, and body temperature.
Crawl forward on the ground, rescue the injured, and drag those who can still be saved to the back of the corner?
He let Su Mulian heal him.
Then, he held his breath and snuck into the center of the battlefield like a moving shadow.
The corpses all over the ground were perfect for his disguise.
He closed his eyes and released his spirit energy magnetic field to scan the battlefield around him.
Because the ceiling lights, wall lights, and searchlights from both sides had been destroyed at the first moment.
The ambushers had also tossed a large number of smoke bombs and poisonous gas bombs.
Aside from the occasional flickering light from the flashlight sticks, the visibility of the pursuers, ambushers, and Meng Chao was practically zero.
Meng Chao could only use his spirit energy to form the outline of his enemies and his companions' appearances.
The space in the killing maze was broken and narrow. The pursuers and ambushers were all tangled up in a muddled mess. The best weapons were not the powerful heavy machine guns, but sabers and daggers.
And most of them wore airtight protective suits and motorized armor. At the very least, they wore gas masks that covered their mouths and noses. Even after fighting for a long time, they still could not see each other's faces.
Meng Chao even noticed that two warriors had the emblems of Black Bone and Poison Scorpion sprayed on their motorized armor. They were clearly on the same side, but one of them used a hot saber to pierce the other's chest armor, chest muscles, sternum, and heart without hesitation.
"Did they kill each other out of panic?
'That's not right. Even though they're wearing the motorized armor and fighting suits of the gangs, it's clear that there are two groups of people here. One group is panicking, and the other group is calm, brutal, and fatal!
'They're the Vortex's subordinates. The wanted criminals and former Reaper Squad members are wearing the motorized armor and fighting suits of the gangs. They're mixing into the crowd and killing!'
There was a problem that had to be solved.
How could the Vortex's subordinates tell who was their enemy?
Right now, the communications and wireless network in the lair were blocked and disrupted.
Regardless of whether it was the gang members or the monster puppets, they could not contact or identify their own people.
So, the ambushers who pretended to be gang members had to have some sort of simple and clear mark on them.
It was just like how the night raiders in ancient times tied white cloth around their arms to show their identity.
That way, they would not end up in chaos with their enemies.
Meng Chao searched patiently.
Soon, he noticed that a few of the people who had the gang emblems sprayed on their motorized armor and fighting suits had three glowing dots in the shape of a triangle on their chests and backs.
They should have been painted with some sort of dye mixed with crystal powder. It could produce a strong reaction with spirit energy fluctuations of a certain frequency.
When he observed them with the naked eye, the light was very weak and could not be distinguished.
But Meng Chao believed that if he poured spirit energy into his eyes and molded his retina into a specific shape, the glowing dots would become brighter and clearer.
Besides, the people who had glowing dots in the shape of a triangle on their chests and backs might be few in number, but they were incredibly calm and active. They were like catfish with mouths full of sharp teeth, and they created the chaos.
'I caught you! It's you!'
Meng Chao's pupils shrank swiftly.
The pursuers were here to surround him.
The ambushers were here to ambush the pursuers.
As for him, he instantly locked onto all the ambushers nearby and marked them with the word "prey" in the center of their "品" shaped light spots.
When an ambusher disguised as a gang member saw a real gang member and passed by Meng Chao, who was disguised as a corpse, he was about to pounce on the pitiful prey from behind.
Meng Chao jumped up like a crocodile lurking in a swamp. His Ghost Blade, which was as thin as a cicada's wing, went up and stabbed the person's legs, which was the weakest spot in the motorized armor.
The person was about to scream, but Meng Chao had already locked his throat with his chain saber.
Electrical arcs and flames tore through the neck guard of the motorized armor and tore apart his Adam's apple, vocal cords, and pained screams.
He could only whimper as blood gushed out of his mouth.
His whimpers were soon drowned out by the louder sounds of gunfire and pained screams.
The person fell limp in a crooked manner.
Meng Chao used Bloody Soul to roughly pry open the armor around his neck and armpits.
Just as he expected, he found a laser barcode that represented the Reaper Squad at the back of the person's head.
He also found a scar left behind by a minimally invasive surgery under his armpit.
This was also a person who should have died a long time ago.
'Vortex, I've seen through your tricks again!'
Once he was certain of his judgment, Meng Chao's confidence increased. He no longer hid his tracks and decided to roar. Bloody Soul shone with a burning red light, and with the momentum of sweeping through an entire army, he swung it at the people with three glowing dots on their chests and backs.
The ambushers were shocked.
They could not understand why Meng Chao had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
He also could not understand why his saber seemed to have X-ray vision. He and the real gang members were wearing the exact same fighting suits and motorized armor, so why did Meng Chao's saber attacks always hit his vitals, but not a single real gang member was injured by accident.
In the face of Meng Chao's crazed saber attacks, the ambushers did not want to continue fighting, so they retreated without hesitation.
And they had almost completed their goal. The real gang members had suffered heavy casualties. Those who were lucky enough to survive had mostly breathed in too much smoke and poisonous gas. They were heavily injured, deaf, and had blurred vision. They did not understand what had happened.
Meng Chao was about to move the injured to Su Mulian's side.
Suddenly, Rattlesnake Xiang Wei's scream came from ahead of him.
Meng Chao's pupils shrank to the size of two needles. He quickly dragged his saber forward and saw a shocking scene.
In the depths of the black poisonous fog, Rattlesnake Xiang Wei's limbs were stiff. He stood with his back straight.
A sharp, blood-red saber tip had come out of his chest. Flames shone on the blade, and the blade trembled madly. It continued tearing at and crushing his organs.
The astonishing vitality of superhumans allowed him to not die immediately.
When Rattlesnake Xiang Wei saw Meng Chao rush out of the tunnel, his eyes went wide in shock, as if he had seen an unbelievable ghost.
Then, Meng Chao saw the ghost as well.
It was as if it had crawled out of a nonexistent mirror.
A familiar yet unfamiliar face slowly rose from the darkness behind Rattlesnake Xiang Wei's shoulder.
His lips curled up into a cruel smile. When he saw Meng Chao, not only was he not surprised, he even nodded at him as a greeting.
It was Meng Chao's own face.
The other Meng Chao had used a weapon that looked like Bloody Soul to pierce Rattlesnake Xiang Wei's chest from behind!
Meng Chao was only stunned for 0.1 seconds.
He immediately swung the real Bloody Soul and rushed forward.
But he was still one step too late.
The person who had pretended to be him had long since used a chain saber that looked like his signature weapon to bind Rattlesnake Xiang Wei's neck.
At that moment, he yanked the chain saber and cut off Xiang Wei's head!
