By now, the entire battlefield could no longer be described as an encirclement. No one knew how many parties were engaged in a chaotic battle. There were people from the Anjing House, A-rank hitmen on the outskirts of the Anjing House, the Pyro Company, and various other forces who had come to seize the laboratory data.
Sometimes, it was not even clear who was friend or foe.
Ren Xiaosu broke out of the encirclement very decisively. When the Pyro Company members saw Ren Xiaosu's group killing their colleagues, they came over to surround and kill them. But in the end, they realized Ren Xiaosu and his group were extremely determined to leave.
The Pyro Company member in charge of commanding the battle said calmly on the radio, "Let them go."
For the Pyro Company, tonight's operation was meant to establish their dominance. There was no need for them to fight to the death with one or two supernatural beings. Furthermore, it was obvious the other party was not to be trifled with. Since they wanted to leave, they would let them go.
But just as he finished speaking, someone suddenly said on the radio, "They're back again …."
The commander frowned. "How many of them are back?"
"Just two of them. One of them is a hooded young man whose face can't be seen clearly, and the other is wearing a white mask," someone reported on the radio.
The commander said, "Send out another Dusk team lurking in the shadows to encircle them …."
Before he could finish speaking, someone else said on the radio, "They've left again …."
The Pyro Company's commander was speechless. What were they doing? They could come and go as they pleased?!
However, this also meant that they really couldn't stop the other party now. The commander said coldly in the communication channel, "Don't worry about them. Just do your best to cause as many casualties as possible. What we need is to spread the news of the tragedy here so that these people won't dare to come looking for trouble next time."
The Pyro Company's ultimate goal was to let the outside world know they would have to pay a price for coming here. As for the details, it would not affect the overall situation. There were only one or two people on the other side, and there were no real laboratory sites in the tunnel, so they were not afraid of them causing trouble.
Just a moment ago, Ren Xiaosu stopped after he broke out of the encirclement with Zheng Hongning and the others.
Initially, Ren Xiaosu's plan to use his shadow clone to kill people was to lure some of the Pyro Company members out. That way, he would only have to face a small portion of the pursuers. Not only could he earn some rewards, but he could also capture one or two of them for Zhou Yingxue to complete her mission.
However, he suddenly realized that the other party had actually stopped chasing!
This time, Ren Xiaosu got anxious. He instructed Zheng Hongning, "If there's nothing else, hurry up and leave Stronghold 73. I think Zhou's Army will probably be arriving soon. You guys have seen the situation here, so this isn't a place you can interfere with. Go back to the black market. Old Xu, let's go! "
With that, Ren Xiaosu brought his shadow clone back to the battlefield. This was the first time Ren Xiaosu had returned to the Pyro Company's communications channel.
But halfway there, Ren Xiaosu felt as if he had forgotten something, so he turned back and pulled Zheng Hongning. "You haven't said thank you yet."
Zheng Hongning and the others looked at Ren Xiaosu in a daze. They felt as if they were looking at a monster. How could he still kill his way in and out of the battlefield at a time like this, just to let them thank him?!
"Thank you …"
"Thank you …"
Ren Xiaosu watched as the printer in the palace typed out lines of gratitude tokens. Only then did he return to the battlefield in satisfaction.
Although the next stage of unlocking a weapon required 10,000 gratitude tokens, which was still a long way off, it would still add up.
To be honest, he was quite looking forward to the third weapon. The first was the black saber, and the second was the black sniper rifle. No matter which one it was, they were both very useful and could help Ren Xiaosu at critical moments.
Of course, money was one of the reasons why Ren Xiaosu chose to return to the battlefield.
But more importantly, didn't the Anjing House say the A-rank hitmen would only have a chance to participate in next year's trials if they managed to kill a single member of the Pyro Company in this hunt?
Ren Xiaosu suddenly thought of something. All the A-rank hitmen who could participate in next year's trials were basically all here, so he definitely could not go and kill them. Otherwise, the Anjing House and the Pyro Company would probably hunt him down together.
Although he did not want to kill the A-rank hitmen, he could make sure they had no one to kill. As long as these A-rank hitmen did not succeed in killing them, they would naturally lose the right to participate in next year's trials.
In the past, someone in town told a story about an evil dragon that specifically ate the young girls in the village. The village elected a hero with the highest martial arts skills to slay the dragon, but the hero felt he could not defeat the evil dragon. So he turned all the young girls in the village into women and starved the evil dragon to death.
Of course, everyone treated it as a joke. However, this method was similar to what Ren Xiaosu was doing now. It was commonly referred to as taking drastic measures.
…
At this moment, the film crew was trembling as they faced the Pyro Company members who were walking towards them. In the end, it was the director who was braver. He forced himself to calm down and said, "Hello, we're the film crew of Awesome Media. We're only here to film some material and have no intention of getting involved in your dispute. May I ask if you can let us go?"
The member of Dusk standing in front of them did not make the decision on his own. He sized up the film crew's filming equipment and asked on the radio, "Commander, there's a film crew filming material here. They say they're from Awesome Media. Should we kill them or not?"
The commander thought for a moment before saying with a sneer, "Confiscate their filming equipment and let them go. People like them still have some influence in the various strongholds, and they often appear in the newspapers. Letting them go can also help us promote ourselves."
The member of Dusk standing in front of the film crew looked at the director. "You're the director, right? We definitely can't let you take the equipment away, but we can let you go. Take a good look at this purgatory. Go back and tell the world that they shouldn't be too fond of joining in on the fun. In today's world, people will die if they just watch the fun. "
Just as he said that, the expression of the member of Dusk changed. When he heard the sound of the wind behind him, he instinctively did a backflip and flipped into the air. At the same time, he took the opportunity to slash behind him with the black ceramic saber in his hand.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. The film crew members did not even see his movements clearly, but the newcomer was even faster. Before the member of Dusk could swing his saber, the newcomer had already slashed down with the black saber in his hand!
The two black sabers collided in the middle. However, the black ceramic saber in the Dusk member's hand was sliced in half like a candle. The edge of the saber was smooth and flat.
The black saber in Ren Xiaosu's hand stabbed down diagonally from the other party's chest and even cut through his bulletproof vest.
Ren Xiaosu looked at the corpse of the member of Dusk and sneered, "What a showy display."
The director stared blankly at the young man in front of him. Half of his face was hidden in the shadow of his hood.
He suddenly felt a little excited. This was probably the kind of community he was looking for.
