The first wave of danger after nightfall had passed. Ren Xiaosu stood in the courtyard of Hope Media looking a little tired.
The mastermind's original plan was probably to create chaos to attract the attention of the garrison troops and the Knight before taking down Hope Media in one fell swoop.
That was because Hope Media was important enough to restrain the Knight for a while.
Only then would they be able to carry out the next part of their plan so that the garrison troops and the Knight would not have any time to catch their breath.
But the mastermind probably did not expect that their plan would be completely messed up. Not only did they not manage to take control of Hope Media, but they even mobilized the thugs from the other two divisions in an attempt to overwhelm Ren Xiaosu with their numbers.
The firepower of over 300 automatic rifles was indeed not something a superhuman could handle alone. But in fact, they had only managed to knock off the armor on Ren Xiaosu's body.
As a result, the plan to restrain Ren Xiaosu by attacking the other four divisions failed due to this sudden change. The entire plan went down the drain, and all the hidden combatants were killed in vain.
This seemed to make the mastermind a little confused about the situation. In all of their plans, only a single superhuman from the Northwest had appeared, yet it had put them in a dilemma.
And why did that man in White Mask also appear here? What was his relationship with the Qinghe Group? Why had they not heard anything about him?
It was one thing for the legendary superhuman from the Northwest to come and help the Qinghe Group, but what was with White Mask?
Some people had suspected that Ren Xiaosu was White Mask. But now, Ren Xiaosu had proven with facts that they were not the same person. After all, they had appeared at the same time.
Before this, every time White Mask appeared, he would be very mysterious before disappearing without a trace.
The other party's powerful physique and his fearless defense against firearms sent chills down everyone's spines. The scariest thing was that everyone suddenly realized no one had seen what kind of superpower he had.
Was it because his opponent was too weak that he did not need to use his superpower?
Of course, they did not know that "Old Xu" did not actually have any superpowers. It was just that he was strong and could run fast. Twice as happy … If Ren Xiaosu activated City Crusher, it would be four times as happy.
It wasn't that he didn't want to use his ability, it was that he didn't have it, and he didn't need it.
After the battle, there was a short period of peace. The enemy needed time to reconsider the situation and improve their subsequent plans.
After the battle ended, all the staff of Hope Media quietly came to the window again, looking at the back of the young man downstairs and the countless enemy corpses.
Blood dyed the ground of the courtyard red. The scene in front of him had a strange beauty of heroism and violence.
This time, Jiang Xu didn't urge everyone to get back to work. Instead, he walked to the window and looked at Ren Xiaosu. He saw Ren Xiaosu turn his head to look upstairs amidst the blood, and then he grinned.
The smile in the blood was incomparably brilliant, making people feel safe.
The female editor sitting by the window looked at the sketch in her hand. It was a drawing of Ren Xiaosu's back as he sat in the yard. Looking at it again now, she felt that the broken chair he was sitting on was no longer as desolate as before.
Previously, Jiang Xu had asked Deputy Chief Editor Ji Yi to tell everyone to work in peace. As long as the young man downstairs was still there, no one could enter the building to hurt them.
At that time, most people thought that the Chief Editor was just comforting them. How could one person defend the entire building?
But such a miracle had happened right before their eyes. They had no choice but to believe it.
The female editor turned to look at Jiang Xu. "Chief Editor, can we write about this young man's battle?"
Jiang Xu thought about it and said, "Yes, but we can't describe the details of his battle, and we can't have any details that expose his identity."
"Then can this be used?" The female editor picked up her sketch. "This can be used as an accompanying picture. You also said that we have to record the truth. This accompanying picture is very blurry. I just feel that he has fought for us until now. Although his name can't appear in the newspaper, it should be fine to have an accompanying picture, right?"
Jiang Xu looked at the sketch and smiled. "Sure."
Jiang Xu thought to himself, How did this kid, Ren Xiaosu, manage to attract fans to Hope Media?
At this moment, Lee Young-yoon and Qin Sheng rushed over with the garrison troops behind them.
When the two of them entered the yard, they were shocked when they saw the corpses strewn all over the ground. Ren Xiaosu was the only one still guarding the building in the yard. White Mask was nowhere to be found.
"Brother Xiaosu, did you kill all of them?" Qin Sheng asked.
"Yes, they tried to barge in, so I killed them. The pressure this time was quite heavy, so I didn't leave any of you alive," Ren Xiaosu said.
"It's alright. We caught them alive at another location." Old Li looked at the corpses strewn all over the ground and was a little speechless. "Fortunately, you were guarding this place in advance. Otherwise, we'd be in trouble today. Let's go. The garrison troops will stand guard here. Let's go in and get some rest."
Ren Xiaosu took a closer look at Old Li and realized he also looked tired. There were bloodstains on his body as well, and it looked like he had just been in a battle.
After the garrison troops successfully took over the defense of Hope Media, Ren Xiaosu heaved a sigh of relief. "Any results from the interrogation?"
"They're very tight-lipped, so we couldn't pry them out of their mouths." Qin Sheng shook his head and said, "But we discovered that the Wang Clan, the Kong Clan, and the Zhou Clan must've reached a temporary agreement. It seems like they'll get rid of the Qinghe Group first before relying on their own abilities. The thugs in the afternoon might seem the same as those at night, but they actually don't belong to the same consortium. Even the Cannibals who took action tonight are not from the same consortium. The three groups of thugs who came to Hope Media belong to the same consortium, while the other group we took care of was a separate group. "
Therefore, this increased the danger level. Although this was the Qinghe Group's home ground and they had their own troops, the other three consortiums had temporarily joined forces.
"Has there been no movement from Xu Ke's side yet?" Ren Xiaosu was referring to the fact that these people were obviously here for the satellites. But up until now, there had not been any danger directed at Xu Ke.
In other words, no matter how intense the battle was, it was still just a prelude.
"There are three Knight stationed at the Qinghe Group's headquarters, so it won't be that easy to break through." Lee Young-yoon said, "As for what those consortiums are up to, we can only wait for them to make their move. By the way, there's definitely a mole in the Qinghe Group, so we can only wait for them to expose themselves before we can eliminate them. Now that you've revealed your identity, it's very likely that they'll target you through clues. I remember that you've also brought some people into Luoyang City. Will they be alright? Why don't you go back and take care of them? "
Ren Xiaosu was stunned. Did this mean that someone would harm Zhou Yingxue and the others?
When he thought of his maidservant's current abilities, he shook his head. "I'm really not worried about that at all …."
