Chapter 397: Chapter 397: Alone on the Battlefield in a Foreign Country A fierce killing intent emanated, and the Menghu Army major trembled all over. Even though he was battle-hardened, having taken lives as easily as cutting grass, he felt extreme fear in front of this middle-aged man. The middle-aged man took a deep breath, "Lewis himself is considered a top-tier master, and there are over thirty experts on the outskirts of the Red House. How was he taken?" The major replied, "There was no special scheme, just speed! The opponent raised a hand and killed the woman in front of Lewis, then knocked Lewis down with one move. Three men on the outside attempted a rescue but were slain instantly by three concealed weapons. He took Lewis and jumped out the window, directly into a flying car waiting for them. Their preparation was extraordinarily thorough, the M300 anti-air system had been pre-installed with explosives, and all flying equipment was also rigged with explosives. They disabled the flying car’s locator, and it has completely vanished!" The middle-aged man’s face turned green, "We thought we reacted fast by reaching Durta from headquarters in just two days and infiltrating the Menghu Military Camp at lightning speed, yet they are even faster!" "Sir, judging from such a decisive modus operandi, the people who came must be Qianlong!" the major said, "The headquarters’ worst fear has happened. What should be done?" "This place is Durta, not Daxia! Even with Qianlong, trying to take Lewis away with just a small flying car is not that easy!" the middle-aged man said, "Immediately contact our people, strictly guard the checkpoints, and shoot down any flying car attempting to cross the border!" "Yes!" These two were, without surprise, the ones sent by Nine Headed Snake to execute the silencing plan. They were indeed experts. The exposure of Wang Zhongze’s identity was due to Lin Xiaosu’s detective divine skill. Blue Demon took this information back to Qianlong, and Qianlong immediately conducted verification, which succeeded just two days ago. Once verified, Qianlong knew that Lewis was Wang Zhongze. Chang Ye was immediately dispatched to carry out the kidnapping mission. Meanwhile, Nine Headed Snake Headquarters almost simultaneously acquired this intelligence and sent people to Durta to execute the silencing action. Both sides were racing against each other. The assassins of Nine Headed Snake believed they were the fastest, yet before they devised the best assault plan against Wang Zhongze’s Red House, Qianlong had already succeeded! Qianlong’s plan had no intricacies, just one word: fast! But it must also be acknowledged, that with speed comes overwhelming strength! Sometimes, simplicity and brutality are far more effective than meticulous planning. However, it must also be acknowledged, Qianlong’s simplicity and brutality, upon closer thought, are not simple at all. The most extraordinary part was the executor’s extreme skill, truly unimaginable. To knock down Wang Zhongze in one move, even within the Heavenly King Team, should be among the foremost. Who could it be? Jing Lei? This middle-aged man’s heart was overshadowed by a terrible figure. But he did not concede. As he said, this place is not Daxia; it is Durta! A flying car could take off from the Menghu Military Camp, but escaping the border is not so easy. Nine Headed Snake had long infiltrated major military camps in Durta, especially the border posts. In the face of Yingyu Country’s advanced military technology, what count is a small flying car? Even a supersonic jet, trying to cross the border, is impossible! Once this flying car is shot down, regardless of whether the suspected Jing Lei can escape, Wang Zhongze must die! He absolutely cannot be allowed to reach Qianlong Headquarters alive. In the night sky, aboard the flying car. A silver needle in Chang Ye’s hand shimmered with a faint green light, and the screen in front of her showed "100% match." She exhaled softly, "Perfect match, he is indeed Seven Steps!" "Haha!" Xinyue laughed with joy, "The impossible mission is perfectly accomplished!" Lin Xiaosu glanced at her, "This is completed? Don’t forget, this isn’t Daxia; this is Durta. If the Menghu Military Camp was a cage, then the Durta border is another cage! So far, we are still in the cage." "Don’t worry! Sister Chang Ye and I have already discussed the subsequent routes!" Xinyue said. "Oh? What’s the route?" "Let me explain!" Chang Ye took over, "We designed two routes. The first, detour through the Red Sea, where there is a merchant ship belonging to Daxia; we can infiltrate the ship. The second, break through the northwest corner, which just experienced conflict and the anti-aircraft system was destroyed, allowing us to enter Yi Country. Yi Country is a strategic ally with Daxia, and we can secure their assistance. Which do you think is more feasible?" "Neither is feasible!" Lin Xiaosu stated, "The first route, if things change on the sea, there’s no room for reaction, violating the fundamental rule of rescuing people. The second route, relying solely on a strategic ally is risky. Nine Headed Snake’s infiltration is pervasive; even if a single leader is compromised, the effort could fail." Chang Ye furrowed her brows, "Durta does not border Daxia; we must pass through another country!" Lin Xiaosu replied, "Gesang Country in the Northwest is currently undergoing a power transition, the air control is chaotic, making it a suitable route." "I’m aware of this! Nine Headed Snake is also aware! Hence, the northwest’s anti-aircraft systems are Yingyu Country’s most advanced M505, and with our flying car, it’s impossible to fly over. Moreover, indications show that Nine Headed Snake’s infiltration is most severe in the northwest air defense force." "No matter how advanced the weapons, they are ineffective once sabotaged!" Lin Xiaosu said, "Let’s not discuss further, our target is Qiu Dai!" "Qiu Dai, stationed with the Eagle type elite Desert Eagle troops, are you sure?" Chang Ye’s heart raced. "I’ll do the driving!" Xinyue felt a bit indignant; do you not trust my driving skills? However, she wasn’t stupid either; she realized she couldn’t possibly fly across a military air defense zone in this situation, so she gave way. Lin Xiaosu entered the cockpit, and for a brief moment, the flying car’s speed surged! Full speed mode! As the speed increased, the two women exchanged glances. This place was merely three hundred kilometers away from the Qiudai Border Defense Force, and with full speed ahead, they would soon enter the air defense identification zone. If the opponent launches missiles, what chance does the flying car have? This guy’s courage was too big, wasn’t it? How could it be that on this trip to the Middle East, he, known as the brilliant strategist at Qianlong Headquarters, seemed to have completely lost his strategizing instincts? Twenty minutes later, the flying car had flown 250 kilometers at full speed. The air defense identification zone was just within reach. Suddenly, Lin Xiaosu pressed down, and the flying car plummeted sharply. In this drop, it was almost about to hit the ground, but the flying car hovered within just three feet off the ground, flying forward close to the highway. Chang Ye’s heart rate spiked: "Disguising as a car? Is this even possible?" Lin Xiaosu smiled, "Even the air defense identification zone has blind spots; as long as you’re close enough to the ground, they’ll assume it’s a car." "This is only theoretical!" Chang Ye said, "Flying a car close to the ground is extremely dangerous!" "Don’t worry, my driving skills were honed with 101." The two women exchanged glances, thinking his statement made it sound as if someone else didn’t hone their skills with 101... The terrain was extremely complicated, with numerous curves and very narrow roads, making it difficult to control the flying car as if it were an actual car without grip or traction. How could one precisely maneuver without letting the flying car veer off the road? Xinyue was so tense she held her breath, fearing that any misstep on her part might steer the flying car off course. However, Lin Xiaosu handled it effortlessly, spiraling up the mountain roads. From an aerial perspective, anyone would have taken it for a car—no one would suspect it was a flying car. The border post was now at hand. Xinyue finally exhaled: "I have to admit, Lin Xiaose is not only bold in matters of love but also has incredible driving skills!" Chang Ye glanced up, feeling slightly aggravated in her teeth. This girl was starting to let loose... no, indulge herself. Xinyue added: "After reaching the post, what then? Are we going to reenact the spectacular scenes of the Menghu Army?" She spoke with excitement. Because the major explosion just now in the Menghu Army was her masterpiece. Most people would think it impossible to plant a bomb in such a heavily guarded military zone, akin to a fool’s dream. Yet with her Invisibility Technique, she could treat any guarded area like an open garden gate. Lin Xiaosu shook his head slightly: "Not us; just me!" The two women gasped in shock... Lin Xiaosu said, "I’ll get off and cause some chaos. The moment their air defense system is destroyed, you two must leave at full speed. There can’t be any delays on your way. Understand that once things get rowdy here, the Desert Eagle’s elite forces will send out a large number of aircraft. We’re counting on the time difference! You must ensure to cross all of Gesang Country at full speed, reaching beyond Daxia’s southwest post before the enemy catches up." "What about you... what will happen to you?" Chang Ye’s heart was pounding. She weighed the plan. While the chances of success were high, Lin Xiaosu, who’d get off to cause chaos, would certainly not make it back onto the flying car. What was this? A three-person operation abandoning one on a foreign battleground? Lin Xiaosu laughed, "What? Worried I can’t return to our country?" Chang Ye shook her head. She was probably the one who knew Lin Xiaosu the best. With his exceptional combat value, few could pose a threat to him. Coupled with his Transformation Technique, rivaling that of Blue Demon, and battlefield intelligence matching Bai Shui’s, the more chaotic the place, the more he could weave his magic. How could he not return? It was just that she found it difficult to overcome her inner hurdle... He went all out to ensure her mission’s completion, yet she would leave him on a foreign battlefield... "Xinyue, you take the wheel!" Lin Xiaosu stood up, leaving the cockpit. The flying car hovered above the road below the post, merely five inches off the ground. Xinyue slowly stood up, "Lin Xiaose, if you stay behind, you might not come back. I must say something to you." Lin Xiaosu rolled his eyes, wondering what she meant by not coming back. Could she speak more carefully? Xinyue said, "Looking back on your life, although you were mostly infuriating, sometimes you did notable things, like this mission—helping me reclaim the top spot on the Gold Medal trial list, surpassing your childhood friend Li Diandian. This shows your standing isn’t biased, that you haven’t confused personal and professional relationships. I, Xinyue, make distinctions between love and hate. Previously, you infuriated me, but as of now, you’re off my list of grudges!" Chang Ye grit her teeth. She dearly wanted to have a word with her. First of all, reviewing someone’s life like this—the way she was talking, as if it were a funeral for her young husband... Lin Xiaosu rolled his eyes, "Surpassing my childhood friend to reclaim the top spot during the trial period?" "Exactly!" Xinyue replied. "I typically don’t like to rain on others’ parades, but with you, I must. Not doing so would not serve justice!" Lin Xiaosu said, "Tell me, Xinyue, you didn’t have a directive from Qianlong for this mission, did you?"
