One of the targets was dead, but the mission didn't fail, which meant that killing was allowed.
"This mission is insane," Han Xiao shook his head, picked up the old man's body, and stuffed it into the cabinet. He thought, "I'll just hide as long as I can."
He didn't want to kill. The targets were all officials of a certain status. If he killed all of them, Maple would be in chaos. There was no profit, only risk.
It's just a dead official. Guess who will be blamed for it ….
There was only one target left, Dorasi Farimi. This official had the highest status among the five targets. The manor was bigger, and the security was tighter.
Han Xiao followed the order and sneaked into the manor through a blind spot. He hid in the shadows and darkness, and the sentries had nowhere to hide.
Sneaking behind a secret service member, Han Xiao injected a needle into his neck and dragged him behind the flowerbed. He quickly changed his clothes and face and looked at his ID. This time, the unlucky guy was called "Angston."
Dorasi's manor was relatively large. Han Xiao was about to go around the back of the villa and enter through the window when the villa suddenly lit up. An order from the higher-ups came from the walkie-talkie.
"Everyone, gather and escort the target to the government building."
All the secret service members gathered. This time, Han Xiao was in a passive position. He replaced Angston's position and didn't want to be exposed. He had to continue playing this role, so he had to gather in front of the villa with the secret service team.
The team leader knocked on the door and said loudly, "Mr. Dorasi, we found unconscious special agents in the other officials' residences. Enemies have sneaked in. Your current situation is not safe. Please move to the government building with us immediately to take refuge together."
Han Xiao was suddenly enlightened. The people he had knocked out in the previous targets had been discovered. It was about time. Maple had reacted.
"Too bad, if I had waited a little longer, I could have completed the last target." Han Xiao was helpless. He could only adapt to the situation and hope that the old man who was hidden in the cabinet would be discovered later.
The villa's glazed wooden door opened, and a tall old man in a fitting suit walked out. The wrinkles on his face were chiseled, and he looked cold and indifferent. His white hair was neatly combed.
The Secret Service escorted Dorasi to the car parked at the gate. There were a total of four cars. Dorasi's car was in the middle, and the other three escort cars surrounded it in a triangle formation. Han Xiao, who was disguised as a special service member, was arranged to sit in the escort car on the right rear.
As the group set off, the best choice was to wait and see.
"I can sneak away on the way and complete the final mission."
Just as he was thinking about this, a few fist-sized black shadows suddenly shot towards the convoy from outside the car window. Han Xiao immediately recognized that they were the shape of howitzers.
…
Boom!
A few grenades accurately landed on the chassis of the three escort vehicles and exploded. The power of the grenades exceeded the attack power that they should have. It was like a small rocket.
The blazing flames lit up the night sky, and the three escort vehicles were flipped in the air. In the end, all four wheels were facing the sky, and the flames were raging.
"Someone is attacking the convoy!" The driver of Dorasi's car hurriedly stepped on the accelerator, wanting to speed up and escape. A few bullets shot out in the dark and blew up the tires.
The car spun and crashed into the side of the road. Four special service members with dusty faces hurriedly got out of the car. Before they could raise their guns, they were hit in the chest by sniper bullets from above. None missed, and they fell to the ground with serious injuries.
"All the guards have been taken care of," Hannes said through the walkie-talkie. "Red Maple's backup will take at least three minutes to arrive. We have plenty of time. Vernina, evacuate with the target."
In the shadow of the intersection between the street lights and the darkness, a woman's silhouette gradually became clearer. Vernina appeared with a grenade launcher. She had short blond hair, and the crow's feet at the corner of her eyes showed that she was not young. However, she still looked attractive, and her every move exuded the charm of a mature woman.
Dorasi walked out of the car and glanced at the special service members struggling on the ground. He was still very calm as he asked in a deep voice, "Who are you people?"
Vernina slowly approached Dorasi, pulled out her pistol, and shot the heavily injured special agents. She took out a tranquilizer syringe from the tactical bag on her belt and said lightly, "Put down the gun, or there will be a hole in your heart."
Dorasi's expression changed. He looked down and saw a red dot appear where his heart was. He hurriedly let go of the pistol behind his back and looked up to see the red dot on the sniper scope of a tall building in the distance.
On a windowsill of the tall building, Hannes was holding a sniper rifle, providing long-range support from above and controlling the situation.
"Looks like I have no choice." Dorasi's expression was terrible. He raised his hands and walked obediently to Vernina.
Bang!
At this moment, the door of an overturned car on fire flew out. A pair of big hands grabbed the door frame and tore it apart amidst the ear-piercing sound of tearing metal. Han Xiao walked out with his neck twisted. His entire body hurt from the collision, and he grimaced.
He was blown away by a grenade for no reason, so he was in a terrible mood.
"There's still one alive?" Vernina's expression did not change. She turned around and fired a shot. Han Xiao reacted quickly. He put on the Magnetically-Controlled Retractable Armor and rammed into the grenade head-on. The flames swallowed him whole.
Vernina originally thought that it was enough to get rid of this fish that escaped the net. After the smoke and dust dissipated, she found that Han Xiao was unharmed and staring at her coldly. That gaze made her heart skip a beat.
In Vernina's long battle life, she had fought with all kinds of powerful enemies and developed a sharp intuition. She could quickly discern the enemy's strength level. With just one look, she could tell that this was the gaze of a predator!
Han Xiao's expression was terrible. He saw the information on the interface. The enemy's name was Vernina. She was a Level 60 Gunner who had reached the limit level in Version 1.0. She was at the pinnacle level in Blue Star!
Other than Bennett, this was the second highest level Blue Star character that Han Xiao had seen! However, she did not have as many Molding Talents as Bennett.
"Vernina, this name sounds familiar." Han Xiao had a vague impression of this name.
There had to be a reason why someone of this level attacked a Maple official. Han Xiao was accidentally involved. He did not want to be a busybody. He could only admit that he was unlucky.
Just as he turned around and was about to leave the scene with his Hover-boots, Vernina fired again.
Clang!
A grenade hit the back of Han Xiao's head and exploded on the armor. It pushed him forward a few steps.
Han Xiao's feet suddenly stopped.
The next moment, the armor covered his entire body. He turned around and charged toward Vernina. He threw out his Retractable Machete and stabbed!
The Electromagnetic Hover-boots were at full power. His charging speed was like a bullet.
Vernina hurriedly raised the grenade launcher as a shield.
Kill!
The black blade passed through the grenade launcher, cut through the precise structure of the gun, and stabbed into Vernina's abdomen. Blood dripped onto the ground.
Han Xiao let go of the blade and punched toward Vernina's temple with his fist. Vernina hurriedly raised her forearm to block. The moment the fist collided with her arm bone, she felt an irresistible force hit her head through her forearm. Then, she felt pain in her abdomen. Han Xiao had kicked her.
"You forced me to attack!" Han Xiao clenched his teeth. His eyes were about to spit fire.
I didn't want to talk to you, and you took advantage of me!
After being beaten up so many times, he was furious!
Vernina was shocked after being hit twice. She thought that this special agent was just a fish that escaped the net. She did not expect him to be a prehistoric shark!
She was a legendary figure from the old era, but she was suppressed by a nameless enemy?
The other party had shown signs of escaping just now. He did not seem to want to continue the fight, but he was provoked by her two shots. Vernina regretted it in her heart. She had provoked a strong enemy in a moment of carelessness. She could not be blamed for that, because the intelligence showed that Dorasi's guards were all normal people. She would never have guessed that one of them had been switched, and was unlucky enough to meet Han Xiao.
"He's not a martial artist, and he doesn't seem to have any special abilities. He's actually a mechanic?" Vernina was shocked. She quickly distanced herself. The gun in her hands was very powerful, and her firepower was fierce. The Mag of the past had to admit defeat in front of her.
Han Xiao did not intend to shoot at her. He did not bring a sniper rifle this time. He only had two Berserk Eagles and some small machines. He chose to use the close combat strategy. He used the Electromagnetic Hover-boots to close the gap between him and Vernina's agility, and then used his strength to suppress her. Gunners had high agility, and Han Xiao had the advantage in terms of strength.
