Special Forces Medic-Chapter 649 - 611: Battle

Mu Rongyun stood at the cave entrance, his hands naturally clenched into fists. Even though he hadn't witnessed the battle below with his own eyes, he could imagine in his mind the silent screams when bones fractured. Those "people" weren't incapable of calling out; the one making the move didn't allow them to utter a sound. Was this his anger?

Mu Rongyun lit a cigarette, a rich exotic aroma enveloping him. Upon arriving in the northern district, he immediately found the innkeeper, but didn't go looking for Wu Shuang thereafter; instead, he came here directly. He thought he had made a mistake. If it weren't for a moment of impulse, he wouldn't have discovered the bloodthirsty factor hidden within Xiao Lin's body, a missing part for him. Was this fierceness because of anger?

Indeed, they were different. Although he didn't think Fourth Master was wrong, he believed she shouldn't have provoked the factor hidden within Xiao Lin. This wouldn't benefit anyone. And according to the information from Xiao Mu, the person he was looking for was right here. What startled him even more was the reappearance of a number.

'DOMO73895' — what exactly does it mean? Either he or they were trapped in an assassin's code. Someone was paying for Hong Lian's life, so someone will accept the mission to take his life. This person, after vanishing for so long, leaping back into the people's sight — what does this signify?

Mu Rongyun pondered. He felt that Xiao Lin wasn't yet aware of this news! Another sound of bones cracking echoed, and Mu Rongyun threw away his cigarette butt, turning to leave the cave entrance. There was no need for him to get involved here. He believed someone would soon stop Xiao Lin's actions for him. As long as he finds Hong Lian first, this battle is his victory.

The "people" were slowly awakening, their movements quickening, understanding counterattack and self-defense. Xiao Lin's task wasn't so easy anymore, but the brutality emanating from him continued to intensify. This was not a good sign.

Hua Qingyi no longer stayed on the sidelines; he moved swiftly beside Xiao Lin, quickly taking down one of the "people". "Brother, if we don't leave now, someone will be here." He had to remind Xiao Lin; they had been here too long.

"Got it!" Xiao Lin cast a glance at the remaining "people", retreating to a previously established defensive line. "You go up first."

"Okay!"

Xiao Lin reached out, clutching one of the "people" by the neck, dragging him over to the blending oil area. He didn't twist his neck in the same manner but instead inserted a Silver Needle into the back of his head, immobilizing him at the boundary. Seeing their companion's change, the "people" all paused. Their simplistic thinking mode left them unable to fathom the current situation.

"Qing Yi, shoot the man lying above." Xiao Lin shouted. He had merely guessed earlier that these people had a Controller behind them. But this person was hidden very well, and he wasn't sure of his whereabouts. Thus he deliberately controlled one person's central nervous system, temporarily blocking any signals to cause a slight confusion and lure out the Controller.

"Understood!" A figure quickly swept past Xiao Lin, heading towards the low houses ahead. However, Hua Qingyi didn't find anyone there. He shook his head, puzzled, at Xiao Lin.

The unexpected situation made Xiao Lin tilt his head, unhesitatingly breaking the neck, and leaped towards where Hua Qingyi was standing. "Nobody?"

Hua Qingyi shook his head, and the special weapon he held emitted a beep. "It can't detect heat, meaning there's no living being inside!"

"Are these 'people' free?" Xiao Lin looked at the accumulating "people" behind him; this was beyond what he'd imagined.

"Let's take care of the remaining ones first. We don't have time." Hua Qingyi dashed into the low house, convinced the final cleanup should be done. Whether or not they were controlled, he had to check thoroughly. Outside was entrusted to Xiao Lin.

The interior of the low house was simple, with three rows of long rectangular surfaces lined up, a passage barely wide enough for one person in between, and nothing else. Above was a large Compass, appearing quite ugly and ticking away. If he was right, this was controlling the "people" outside.

The muzzle aimed at the Compass, bullets shot from a special gun hit the Compass's perimeter. The bullets ricocheted back, grazing Hua Qingyi's face, leaving a bloodstain on his fair skin. "Damn! It's even equipped with a bulletproof device." Hua Qingyi, not willing to yield, aimed at the center electronic lamp setup and shot with the same result. After some thought, he ran out of the low house, straight to the defensive line set with blending oil.

Xiao Lin's speed in dealing with opponents had clearly lessened significantly. There were still ten people, and under simultaneous attack strength, Xiao Lin was below. Their imitation ability was notably strong. Thus it was akin to Xiao Lin battling ten versions of himself. Hua Qingyi dared not be remotely careless, taking off his outer layer, soaking it in blending oil to ensure the fabric was fully submerged in the oil.

"Brother, hang on a while longer." Hua Qingyi dashed into the low house, climbing onto the central platform.

Xiao Lin exhaled towards the ten "people" in front of him, swinging his limbs. These mindless "people" were like machines that didn't know how to rest. The ability to turn humans into machines might belong solely to Fourth Master, a monster with an angelic visage. This kind of person must be eliminated; otherwise, the world cannot be peaceful. He resolutely wouldn't allow this person to threaten Huaxia's safety.

"Bring it on!" Just take it as a battle against oneself; such opportunities were rare.

The same moves, the same targeted strikes, each blind spot presented by the opponent right before his eyes. How to resolve his own techniques was a formidable task. If he showed mercy to the opponent, it would mean showing mercy to himself. How should he act?

Faster than yourself! Before the opponent can gather information about your next move, you must first completely dismantle your previous offensive. It's hard! Xiao Lin felt that such an surpass was very difficult, after all, he wasn't a god.

A "human" came at him from his left side targeting his abdomen, while another attacked the same spot simultaneously as he repelled the first one. The former seemed to mimic his counter move, caught in a repetitive cycle that gradually drained his energy.

Fixing the fabric soaked in mixed oil onto the Compass was a daunting task. Hua Qingyi realized up close how smooth this object was. Even when squeezed into the crevices, the cloth would fall off due to the oil. The intensity of the battlefield was visible from his vantage point, and those at a disadvantage seemed eager to use Inner Strength once more to eliminate the opposition, further unsettling Hua Qingyi.

Previously, to destroy the final product, Xiao Lin had already expended half of his True Qi and joined the battle without proper rest and recovery. To use Inner Strength again was slow suicide. Dropping the fabric, Hua Qingyi made his choice.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Lin yelled at those joining the melee, attempting to push them out of the circle. Unexpectedly, Hua Qingyi had yanked the arm of a "person" rudely backward in such a manner that it restrained the creature's movement.

"There's no point in following rules with these things, hurry up, it's very strong." Understanding Hua Qingyi's intention, Xiao Lin grabbed the "person's" head and leaped into the air, forcibly separating it from its neck. Red fluid emerged from the severed area. "So, their blood is red!"

"They were human all along!" Xiao Lin found Hua Qingyi's astonishment amusing, adding confusion among the remaining "people" with an additional intervention.

The two ceased exchanging words, cooperating to slaughter those "people" in front of the low flat building.

"There's still a Compass inside, let's deal with it together!" Hua Qingyi pointed inside; it was what controlled these "people."

The Compass was still running but with significantly fewer flashing dots. "This should be a central controller; those dots represent the people outside. Someone should soon be coming over here." Xiao Lin frowned at the device, picking up the fabric soaked in mixed oil. "This isn't enough to cause an explosion."

As they crossed the boundary set by the mixed oil, Hua Qingyi ignited them, and Xiao Lin threw the fabric onto the fire. The amount of fuel was sufficient to keep it burning for a while.

Climbing onto the elevator, after firing a shot where a stair-step had been previously buried, a loud explosion rang out, causing the lift to tilt to one side.

"What expression would Fourth Chief have on that beautiful face if he knew we destroyed his factory here?" Hua Qingyi lay forward, asking Xiao Lin.

"I think he's waiting outside for us to step into a trap." It was meant as a joke, but Hua Qingyi suddenly stopped.

"Are you an immortal? You can even predict this?" Hua Qingyi turned back and pointed ahead. "There's someone."

Silently, one could hear breathing. "Did you come down from the chimney?"

"Yes!" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Then let's exit through the chimney here." Entering through another exit required passing through a curve, and their current position wasn't suitable for an ambush. So Xiao Lin was certain there would be someone guarding the fork upfront; the space wasn't large enough for many people.

"What should we do with this person?"

"Kill!"

Xiao Lin had indeed changed; Hua Qingyi pondered internally, as people had already stepped out through the entrance he had previously entered.

The person guarding the cave heard the noise emanating from the entrance and swiftly turned around. Upon seeing Hua Qingyi, he was momentarily stunned. Perhaps he didn't expect them to emerge alive. Yet, a second of hesitation in confronting the enemy was enough to seal one's fate. Before he could send out a signal, he was already a corpse. (To be continued.
