"Ding ~"
"New mission issued."
… …
Mission name: Assassinate Bai Lingfeng
Mission content: Assassinate the current Clan Head of the Bai family and disrupt the Bai family's strategic layout to prepare for the Tian family's strategic attack.
Mission implementation: Team A
Current progress: 0%
… …
"Assassinate the Bai family's Clan Head?"
Su Hao narrowed his eyes. The Tian family is about to make a move. If the Bai family's Clan Head dies, no matter what, the Bai family will definitely be affected. Both sides already have a gap in strength. At that time, if the Tian family takes this opportunity to attack the Bai family, the Bai family will definitely lose!
At this time …
Su Hao finally understood why Team F was tasked with such an important matter like the Nitai artifacts. Obviously, the other teams have a more important task. Compared to this mission, the so-called collection of Nitai artifacts paled in comparison to this mission. Of course, a world esper is an exception.
"Bai Lingfeng?"
Su Hao looked at that familiar name.
He still remembered this best friend of his. Occasionally, they would contact each other, but due to being busy, the contact became less and less. When they were in high school, they originally planned to enter War college together. However, after the college entrance exam ended, Bai Lingfeng gave up on cultivation and turned to business, which he was interested in.
Su Hao wasn't sure what he was doing, but it was said that he opened a company and was doing quite well. Later, due to a special cooperation, he joined the Bai family with a high status. Never would he have thought that after he became the Clan Head of the Su family, Bai Lingfeng would actually become the Clan Head.
"It's been a long time."
Su Hao silently turned on his communication device and tapped on the number he hadn't received for a long time.
****
"Team A, gather!"
In the meeting room, when Team A gathered, Su Hao unconsciously frowned because the person he didn't want to see the most appeared in Team A, Tian Zi.
"From today onwards, I will be the captain of Team A."
Tian Zi calmly said.
No one in Team A objected. In the previous mission, two of their teammates died, leaving only eight members. Naturally, the higher-ups would add two more members, Tian Zi and Lin Hu.
As Tian Zi was the head of the family, no one dared to object to his entry into the clan. Although Lin Hu's strength was slightly weaker, he was famous for his sense of justice. To Team A, a qualified teammate was obviously more reliable than someone who was simply strong. Overall, they were very satisfied with the two new members.
"You should have received the mission this time."
Tian Zi said faintly as he placed a pile of documents on the table. "According to these documents, Bai Lingfeng has to meet with the local government because of some matters. This is the first time he has left the Bai Family and stepped into the nearby city. So, this is our only chance."
"What we need to do is very simple. With the cooperation of the undercover, we can smoothly blend in and kill everyone when they start to discuss. Bai Lingfeng's strength isn't strong. He's only a level one domain esper. Rumor has it that he used drugs to increase his strength. His strength is extremely weak! "
Hearing this, everyone nodded to themselves.
A level one domain esper is considered a strong esper for most people. However, for Team A, which has a total of eight peak domain espers, a level one domain esper is just a piece of cake. Not to mention, rumor has it that Bai Lingfeng's cultivation talent isn't that high and he used drugs to increase his strength.
Tian Zi paused for a second before continuing, "The most difficult part of this mission is to wrap things up!"
"Killing Bai Lingfeng is easy, but how to deal with him after killing him is the biggest problem. Moreover, Bai Lingfeng's death is easy to be covered up by the Bai family. Thus, we need to let everyone know about Bai Lingfeng's death and then successfully leave from there. "
Everyone's brows furrowed.
Yes, killing Bai Lingfeng is easy, but what about after? Based on the usual way of handling matters, once Bai Lingfeng is discovered to be dead, they would immediately seal off the news. If necessary, they would even find someone to impersonate him. Then, the mission would lose its meaning, and killing him would be a waste of time.
"Or should we do it in public?"
Someone in the team suggested, "If we make a move when Bai Lingfeng leaves or steps into the city, they won't be able to hide it even if they want to."
"No."
Tian Zi decisively refused.
"There are two problems."
"First, if we make a move in public, it won't be a battle between the top ten families. Ordinary people will be involved in this war, which is likely to cause the government or the Origin Ability Association to take action. Many times, for the pressure of public opinion, they have no choice but to take action against the Tian family. "
"Second, if we make a move like this, we won't even have time to escape. If the Bai family's world espers notice us, none of us will be able to leave."
This is true.
Everyone in the team nodded.
For a moment, they frowned. The biggest problem with this mission isn't the killing but how to wrap things up and escape. Only by solving these two problems can they make a move. Everyone was pondering. Su Hao was also brainstorming. However, what he was thinking about was always how to fish in troubled waters and maximize the amount of energy he could obtain to breakthrough into the domain realm.
Only 20% left!
He wanted to do it all at once.
Everyone in Team A discussed for a moment and still couldn't find a suitable action plan. As for Tian Zi, he placed his gaze on Su Hao, who had been silent all this while. He had always been suspicious of Su Hao. He always felt that there was a familiar yet strange aura coming from him, and that innate hateful sixth sense.
Anyway, he just didn't find him pleasing to the eye.
Tian Zi didn't know why he hated this guy so much. In the end, he could only attribute it to Lin Hu's sudden emergence that threatened his position.
"Lin Hu, what's your idea?"
Swish!
Everyone's eyes shifted over.
"Uh."
Su Hao scratched his head, "I do have one, but I always feel that it's not perfect."
"It's fine. Just say it."
"Yeah, let's hear it."
When everyone heard that Lin Hu had an idea, they all curiously asked.
"En."
Su Hao nodded. Without waiting for Tian Zi's reaction, he immediately opened his mouth, "Since the focus of our mission is to wrap things up and escape … why don't we use firearms?"
"Firearms?"
Everyone was stunned.
Who are these people here?
Peak domain espers!
To be frank, if a peak domain esper is ruthless, it's enough to raze a hill to the ground! This is the terrifying strength of a peak domain esper! A casual attack is equivalent to several tons of bombs exploding at the same time. What's even more terrifying is that a peak domain esper has a strong defense.
One could say that …
Even if a row of high-energy missiles were to clash with a peak domain esper, the final result is likely to be that the entire row of missiles won't have any parts remaining.
Therefore, no one had ever considered using firearms or anything like that.
Because it's too weak.
Although Bai Lingfeng is only a level one domain esper, as the Clan Head of the Bai family, he must have a Nitai artifact. Bai Lingfeng's defense is estimated to be comparable to a peak domain esper. To kill a peak domain esper, any firearms are useless unless nuclear weapons are used, but nuclear weapons …
Do you want to massacre the entire city? As long as one dares to use nuclear weapons in the Federation, there's no doubt that in the next moment, one will be annihilated by the Origin Ability Association and the government.
Nobody can escape!
"This … I really can't."
The team didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
They didn't expect Lin Hu to come up with such an idea after thinking for a long time. Sure enough, he's a cultivator from the bottom. Perhaps in his opinion, a bomb is still a threat? Sigh, he isn't high enough. His vision is too limited. Everyone shook their heads helplessly.
"I'm not talking about killing but ending the fight."
Su Hao explained without thinking much of it.
"Ending the fight?"
The team was stunned for a second.
"But …"
Su Hao smiled, "Since it's not convenient for us to make a move, then we will use firearms to end it. The place where Bai Lingfeng is having a meeting, I'm sure the Bai family has cleared the place of ordinary people and installed bodyguards. Then, after we secretly kill Bai Lingfeng, we will use a big explosion to draw a perfect end to the operation. "
"Bang!"
Su Hao made a gesture, "Then, wouldn't the news of Bai Lingfeng's death be known to everyone? Even if the Bai family wants to hide it, it won't be able to. "
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Then, how are we going to retreat?"
Tian Zi suddenly opened his mouth and frowned, "If we act like this, how are we going to leave? As long as there is an explosion, the movement will be enough to alarm the world espers of the Bai family. "
"Yeah."
Everyone was shocked.
"This is the advantage of firearms."
Su Hao smiled indifferently, "Although firearms can't be compared to energy and can't be compared to those espers here, it has an indescribable advantage, and that is, it can be remotely controlled! Even if the signal is blocked and can't be controlled, it can still be timed! "
"Wait for half an hour after we leave."
"Bang!"
"Perfect."
Su Hao made another exaggerated explosion action. Everyone in the team looked at each other and showed a look of approval. If this was the case, it seemed that it was really feasible.
"It seems to be possible."
"This way, the risk is almost reduced to zero."
"First, kill everyone in the Bai family, and then quietly leave before detonating the bomb. When they notice, we will be back at the Tian family's residence. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Let's do it this way."
The team made a decision.
Tian Zi was somewhat annoyed. Why is it that in the end, it doesn't have anything to do with him? This mission didn't include him. It was him who specifically requested to be dispatched in order to prove himself. He wanted to prove that he's definitely not worse than Lin Hu. Never would he have thought that before the operation even started, Lin Hu would already be praised.
When he raised his head, Tian Zi seemed to have seen the endless contempt in Lin Hu's eyes.
"This damn guy."
Tian Zi gritted his teeth. Looking at Lin Hu, he became even more annoyed.
"Then, let's do it this way."
In front of the mission, no matter how angry Tian Zi was, he had to endure it. Seeing that this plan was feasible, everyone surrounded Lin Hu and praised him. Then, he immediately made a decision, "Strategic mission, time is precious. Act immediately."
"Yes."
Everyone in Team A was stunned.
Only then did Tian Zi feel relieved. When he raised his head, he just happened to meet Su Hao's gaze. In that gaze, he seemed to have seen a thick sense of ridicule.
