I Can Destroy Planets with My Psychokinesis-Chapter 175. Show up at the door

People in high places were all too familiar with "assassination."

After all, everyone favored the method of physical destruction to directly eliminate their opponents, something the neighboring countries of the Star Alliance Country knew all too well.

Thus, even this minor incident hadn’t affected the discussion between Luke and Lady Maria in the slightest.

The richest man in the country and the future president had too much to exchange and discuss.

It wasn’t until a trusted subordinate delivered the lab report of the "Poison Needle Ring" that things changed.

[African Tree Snake Venom, with just 0.1mg being lethal, can cause a coagulation mechanism disorder]

Luke didn’t hide or hoard the information; he shared the intelligence with Lady Maria.

The lady’s complexion turned sour.

Handling snake venom was troublesome, with a short shelf life, making it unsuitable for assassination.

But the "coagulation mechanism disorder" caused by the tree snake venom would result in a slow, pitiful death from bleeding from all seven orifices.

It looked more like an act of revenge and venting, which subconsciously made one think that the murderer was commissioned by a drug lord.

But things were far from that simple...

At this point, Luke raised his glass to salute Lu Li with a smile, saying with admiration,

"That was really dangerous earlier. Just a light touch of the poison needle on the skin could have been fatal... Lucky for us you were here."

Luke had a look of gratitude, for if the lady really had died there, it would have brought significant trouble.

He drank his glass in one gulp and asked curiously, "By the way... how did you detect the assassin?"

Lu Li replied indifferently, "Intuition."

"An admirable skill, and my thanks again!"

"It’s merely my duty."

Lu Li nodded slightly and rose, saying, "Excuse me for a moment."

By now, Ulica realized that he’d been spotted by Lu Li and was pulling Medea to leave.

Medea, however, found it hard to believe: "Just a few glances and he discovers us—is there really someone that perceptive in this world?"

"Trust the judgment of a veteran of the Vietnam War."

Ulica had made eye contact with Lu Li and was certain that their presence had been exposed—they couldn’t linger in this place.

The two "Military Contractors" had just reached the entrance of the banquet hall when suddenly a figure appeared before them—it was Lu Li!

Medea and Ulica felt a sinking feeling, but their faces remained perfectly composed.

Still smiling, Medea greeted,

"What a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Lu Li. I am Medea, the manager of Titan Company. Is there something you need?"

As she spoke, six shadowy figures closed in around them.

These men wore expressionless faces but exuded a strong presence; they were the elite brought by the two Military Contractors.

Although they didn’t want to erupt into direct conflict in the home of the richest man, they weren’t afraid either.

Medea smiled calmly and said, "Sir, you should be protecting Lady Maria now."

Lu Li casually toyed with two bullets in his hand, replying calmly, "No need to worry, we’ll meet again later."

With that, he turned and returned to his seat.

While Medea and Ulica’s eyes grew cold, they quickly left the area.

Only after they got out of the banquet hall and into the car did Ulica loosen his collar and say reflectively,

"What an intense aura; I nearly suffocated. That land always produces some unimaginable people."

"Unfortunately, no matter how skilled, it can’t change the disadvantage of being exposed."

Medea said coldly, "Gather our best men, at whatever the cost, take him down!"

The woman was still young and lacked experience. Her spirit had been severely shaken by the direct encounter with Lu Li, unlike the older folks who could keep their composure.

As the car sped down the highway, they were unaware that a Shadow Painting Sword hidden in the night was faithfully following them.

~~~~~~~~~

This Shadow Painting Sword was precisely the one Lu Li had stealthily released.

Confirmed two enemies with hostility and imposing auras, he naturally sought to nip the danger in the bud.

He didn’t make a move amidst the crowd, but let Flying Sword follow.

After Lu Li returned to his seat, he explained to Lady Maria, who wore a puzzled expression: freewebnøvel.coɱ

"There are people with ill intentions, and I’ll take care of it."

The lady gave a slight nod, then continued conversing with the wealthy mogul.

Meanwhile, Lu Li subtly sensed Flying Sword.

Once the distance to Flying Sword exceeded one kilometer, the connection weakened substantially, barely enough to sense its presence.

He couldn’t provide any support to Flying Sword, nor could he use Spirit to "wirelessly charge" it.

However, that didn’t matter, as long as he could locate the enemies’ position.

Next, he accompanied Lady Maria to meet one socialite after another.

If things went as expected, several of them would become cabinet members.

When the time reached 9 p.m., the banquet concluded.

The hosts and guests parted on amicable terms, they all saw Lady Maria and Lu Li and the others to their cars and waited until the vehicles had left before dispersing.

Lu Li had intended to return to the hotel before heading out alone, but along the way, he realized they would pass by the location of those two "military contractors."

"Interesting."

Lu Li smiled and said to Lady Maria:

"There are two groups of people with ill intentions towards you, not far ahead at the Sheraton Hotel. Let’s pull the car over, and I’ll conveniently take care of them."

Lady Maria was slightly taken aback, "Then go ahead with your task, I have something to discuss... when you return."

Aurora and the others didn’t waste words, they directly arranged through the earphones:

[Everyone, pull over to the side.]

The convoy quickly followed the instruction and stopped, with the Sheraton Hotel about 500 meters away.

Aurora didn’t ask if he needed reinforcements or such; everyone was not on the same level, and a careless mix-up would only become a burden.

However, Lu Li asked her for something, "Do you have 12.7 mm bullets?"

"I do."

Aurora lifted her suit jacket and pulled out five bullets from the ammunition belt around her waist.

She used the "Barrett" acquired from the Foreign Affairs Bureau agents and always carried 12.7 mm bullets.

"Thanks, I’ll be back in about 5 minutes."

Lu Li took the bullets, nodded to everyone, and then got out of the car and left.

~~~~~~~~~~

The Sheraton Hotel had a total of 26 floors, with the presidential suite on the top floor.

Medea and Ulica originally didn’t reside here; they temporarily relocated to prevent Lu Li’s potential attack.

Currently, a boy of only twelve or thirteen, carrying an AK rifle on his back, reported:

"No one noticed during the change of cars three times along the way. The hotel is surrounded by hidden guards, and we have drone surveillance, all preparations are ready."

"Well done, Saladin."

Medea ruffled the boy’s hair and said with a kind smile, "You need to protect me, okay~"

The boy named Saladin had high eyebrows and deep eyes, with a hooked nose, bearing the distinct features of an oil country native.

He nodded expressionlessly and then turned to leave.

Ulica adjusted his glasses and commented, "A child from a war-torn region? Too young."

"But bullets fired by him are deadly just the same."

Medea shaped her hand like a gun, "He’s far more astute than an adult, and an excellent soldier."

Ulica nodded, "Then, we strike during the women candidate’s public speech tomorrow. I will have the mercenaries kidnap the two young girls as a distraction."

Medea crossed her arms in front of her chest and sneered, "Those who reveal themselves too early... will just become prey..."

Her words had not yet faded when Saladin’s sharp voice suddenly came through the radio strapped to her body:

[We’re under attack!]
