A fire suddenly broke out in the barracks of Stronghold 73's garrison troops. When the barracks were built, the Zhou Clan had used a large amount of fireproof materials to prevent a fire from breaking out.
But this time, it was not a natural disaster. Instead, someone had deliberately used volatile, high-calorie fuel. At this moment, the garrison troops in the barracks rushed towards the scene of the fire. A soldier who witnessed the fire said there were only five arsonists, but each of them was extremely agile. Normal people would not be able to catch them.
After the five of them set the fire, they immediately left. A company of soldiers from the garrison troops chased after them.
Outside the barracks was a residential area, so the five of them quickly climbed up to the rooftop.
The Zhou Clan army at the rear looked at the five-story residential building. Although it was not very tall, they did not know how to climb up.
On normal days, they would also receive professional climbing training to deal with complex terrain battles.
But this wall did not even have a water pipe that they could use as leverage. They did not even know how the five of them managed to climb up!
The officer in charge of the pursuit this time shouted, "Stop climbing! We'll pursue them on the ground. There's a small street ahead that's blocking their way. When that happens, they won't be able to continue jumping between buildings."
As he spoke, over a hundred Zhou Clan soldiers started running quickly. One of the platoons even advanced at full speed in order to intercept the five of them when they reached the street.
The street in front of the five of them was 12 meters wide, so it was impossible for a normal person to jump from the rooftop to the other side of the street.
At this moment, the ground pursuing troops could only occasionally see figures flying up from the rooftops in front of them. To the officer's surprise, the other party's flying speed was much faster than they had imagined!
The two sides were about to reach the street ahead, but the Zhou Clan army still could not close the distance between them.
The officer said, "Don't panic. When they land, immediately open fire! When that happens, they'll be in firing range! "
But the moment he finished speaking, the five people on the rooftop took off at the same time when they arrived at the last residential building facing the street!
The 12-meter-wide street was like an abyss, but they flew across it like geese!
The Zhou Clan officer was stunned. Were they still normal people? Could all five of them be supernatural beings?!
But which organization was wreaking havoc in Stronghold 73? How could they find five supernatural beings to act at the same time?
While he was in a daze, a Zhou Clan officer in military uniform rushed out from the side. His rank was actually a lieutenant colonel.
A soldier exclaimed, "It's Zhou Lin, that supernatural being from the garrison. He's giving chase!"
This Lieutenant Colonel of the Zhou's Army called Zhou Lin strode forward. As he continued his pursuit through the streets, he could still hear the surprised cries of the soldiers behind him. He sneered and didn't even look back.
Zhou Lin plunged into the alley on the opposite side of the street, but at this moment, he suddenly realized that there was a young man tailing him from behind.
The five arsonists that he was chasing actually stopped in their tracks and looked back at him mockingly.
One of them even smiled at the young man behind him and said, "Qin Sheng, block the road. Don't let him escape."
"OK, Brother Qingxi," Qin Sheng replied.
Zhang Qingxi said to Li Yinglong, who was next to him, "Qin Sheng is very talented. After becoming a Knight, his physical fitness has improved much faster than ours, and his fist energy is also a little stronger than ours."
Li Yinglong sighed and said, "Yeah, why couldn't I tell that this kid had such a strong physique back then?"
There were also differences in the strength of a Knight, and this depended on each person's talent. After becoming a Knight, some people's physical fitness would be locked at around the T5 rank, while others could continue to grow.
Now, Qin Sheng had surpassed Zhang Qingxi and Li Yinglong in less than a year since he became a Knight.
Zhou Lin sized up the six of them coldly and asked a very stupid question, "Why aren't y 'all running anymore?"
"That's why we have to run if we can't beat them. If we can beat them, of course we won't run." Zhang Qingxi explained with a smile, "As for you, why did you dare to chase after them by yourself? Do you think we're easy to bully? "
To be honest, if the Knight Organization wanted to wreak havoc in a stronghold, it would be considered a very hooligan behavior.
Normal troops could not catch up to them, but if the supernatural beings caught up to them, they would be killed instead if they did not outnumber them.
Right now, as long as they took action, all 12 of them would move together. In the entire world, no organization would place 12 supernatural beings in a stronghold just to deal with them.
If it were any other supernatural being, they might not be able to travel freely through the city either. They might even get surrounded by the ground troops.
But these people were all extreme sports, so running down buildings was no different from running on flat ground.
At this moment, another two Knight members walked out of the alley. They were Xu Ke and Wen Meng.
However, Xu Ke and Wen Meng were still bandaged. Xu Ke had his left arm in a sling while Wen Meng was limping. It looked like they had been injured while helping the Pyro Company and escapees retreat.
When Zhou Lin saw the number of people on the other side increasing, he was at a loss on what to do. Most importantly, they were just exchanging pleasantries and asking about the progress of the mission. They did not take him seriously at all.
Zhang Qingxi said, "I wonder if Wu Dingyuan has completed his mission. Should we go and provide support for him?"
Zhou Lin was just about to say something when he heard a gust of wind behind him. He instinctively turned around to dodge, but all of the Knight members around him swarmed him and knocked him down with a flurry of punches. He did not even have time to use his superpower.
Whenever he tried to focus and use his superpower, a fist would suddenly hit him and interrupt his superpower!
There were clearly seven times more Knight members present, but the other party was still using words to attract attention and sneak attacks from behind!
How despicable!
It wasn't until Zhou Lin vomited blood and died that Wu Dingyuan and Huang Xiaoyu rushed over from behind. They said, "We've killed him."
The person they had killed was the Zhou Clan's supreme military commander, Zhou Yifei.
In this operation, the five of them were responsible for setting fire to attract attention while Qin Sheng and the other two wounded members were responsible for providing support outside. Meanwhile, Wu Dingyuan and Huang Xiaoyu were responsible for decapitating the enemy.
Li Yinglong nodded. "According to Xiaosu, Zhou Shiji will definitely head to the safe house to avoid danger when he hears about the garrison."
"Then where are we going next? Are we going to meet up with him? Also, when are we going to tell him about what we discussed? "Zhang Qingxi asked.
"Let's settle the matter with the Zhou Clan first," Li Yinglong replied.
Before that, the Knight Organization would leave the Qinghe Group and not return. They even sent a signal to the outside world that they would fight to the death with anyone who had any designs on Luoyang City.
This was because if they were used for defense, they would be very weak and would not be able to compete with the main forces of the consortiums. But if they were used for destruction, no consortium would be able to withstand it.
The reason why the Zhou Clan was so careful to conceal their identities when they assassinated Jiang Xu was because they were worried they would attract revenge from the Knight Organization.
Now that their enemies had been identified, the Knight Organization would have to use blood to defend its words so that no one would dare to target Luoyang City again.
