Chapter 98: Chapter 76: Demon Mist Advances!
Assassinate the team leader?
Are you mistaken, you’re one of the members of the S-class club, yet you want to kill the team leader?
Wu Xiaode’s eye twitched.
The gunman immediately noticed the subtle change in Wu Xiaode’s expression.
Without a trace of emotion, he took his hands off the table and let them hang by his sides, with a smile on his face, he said:
"Little Wu, what’s wrong?"
"I’m thinking about what it feels like to kill someone with a gun." Wu Xiaode, holding the pistol, exuded a faint killing intent.
Guessing magic had clashed with Xiao Baihong before.
Xiao Baihong had always wanted to kill him.
Guessing magic was dead.
So in this team full of S-class wanted criminals, no one was well-behaved.
Everyone stuck together just for some common interests.
Wu Xiaode figured out the situation in an instant, then assumed a shooting stance.
"Old brother, give me some pointers," he said.
The gunman glanced over.
The gun in Wu Xiaode’s hand wasn’t even disengaged from safety.
Indeed, Wu Xiaode had learned some basic gun skills from the slain soldiers’ spirits of this world.
But with just those basics, his gun-holding stance could at best be considered passable.
In front of a gun expert like the gunman, he looked like a beginner.
Time advanced a second forward.
"You want to kill someone?" the gunman asked.
"Of course. Those guys at the top of the empire, I’ll blow them away with a gun sooner or later," Wu Xiaode said through clenched teeth.
The gunman naturally knew about this and said with a grin, "Little Wu, if you want to kill someone, just use your fists, no need for guns. It’s more of a burden for you."
During their conversation, his hands went back to the table as he started to load a magazine with bullets.
The incident just then seemed to have passed.
——If Wu Xiaode really wanted to make a move, he would have used his fists just then because he was a Martial Artist.
But Wu Xiaode had a gun in his hands.
And all along, there had been nothing out of place about him.
The gunman let his guard down.
He wasn’t afraid of someone aiming a gun at him.
However, a new thought slipped into his mind:
"Was my reaction just now a bit too much? This kid has been targeted by those high-ups of the empire; of course, he feels resentful, and it has nothing to do with me!"
Wu Xiaode put away the pistol and said, "You’re right, thanks."
After he finished speaking, he walked out of the cockpit without looking back and returned to the carriage.
Xiao Baihong should be fine.
Ying was immersed in the grief of losing his brother.
——The gunman wanted to kill the team leader and knew the team leader’s real identity.
There was one more person left unchecked.
The team leader.
It was now necessary to confirm her identity.
After all, internal human strife is easily handled, but if something unknown and terrifying infiltrates, that’s the real trouble.
Wu Xiaode sat down beside the team leader and said, "Sorry, leader, for eating so many of your snacks."
"It’s okay, they’re not worth much, just buy me double the amount when we get back," the team leader said, looking down and flipping through the scientists’ logs.
Apart from the secret on the last page, she also seemed very interested in the content of these rock surveys.
——This is a true leader.
She’s calm, intelligent, capable, and resolute.
I hope she hasn’t been replaced by a monster.
Wu Xiaode took a deep breath and quietly waited.
The next moment,
a voice indeed came from the team leader:
"Damn it, Little Wu! Those green bean cakes are the tastiest of all the snacks! You took them all at once! Not a single one left for me! You’re really no fun!"
Wu Xiaode: "..."
Five exclamation marks.
Fine then.
I take back my assessment.
...Actually, this Mind Reading Technique is quite useful.
Wu Xiaode opened his own bag and placed all the remaining green bean cakes on the table, earnestly saying, "Leader, these green bean cakes are all yours, I’ll go eat something else."
"No worries, you eat," the team leader said indifferently.
"I don’t like them, they’re sticky to the teeth. I’m going to have some bread," Wu Xiaode stated.
"Sticky to the teeth? I’ll give it a try," she said nonchalantly, unwrapping a green bean cake and slowly began to eat.
That’s when the surroundings suddenly darkened.
Simply because all the lights in this section of the tunnel had long been extinguished.
Immediately afterward, the train began to slow down.
"Gunman, what’s happening?" Xiao Baihong asked loudly.
"We’ll reach T5 passage in 5 minutes — there’s no power up ahead!" came the gunman’s voice from the cockpit.
Ying casually snapped his fingers.
Butterflies emiting light flew out from his fingertips, landing in front of the tunnel, illuminating the path.
Five minutes later.
The train stopped at a platform.
There was no light at all, the whole tunnel was pitch black.
"What’s going on?" the team leader asked.
"It seems to be some kind of remote control program, I think we should head back now, just in case there’s something waiting for us ahead," the gunman said.
Everyone looked towards Wu Xiaode.
Wu Xiaode stood beside the gunman, silently listening to his thoughts:
"This is a dead end, and everyone has been together all along, it’s really not easy to act, it would be better if we could get the team to spread out... that way I’d have a chance."
A smile spread across Wu Xiaode’s face.
"Everyone, according to the tunnel structure map, this is a dead end. No matter what, we won’t be split up, and we can maintain our strongest force."
"Right, I’ll be at the forefront, everyone can rest assured."
Upon hearing this, everyone’s spirits lifted.
When a Martial Artist spoke those words, it meant he was willing to face all dangers at the front.
The others could still run away if things went south.
The Martial Artist had no way out.
From another perspective —
"There should be supplies here, as well as ventilation ducts. We can explore a bit, and if it doesn’t work out, we’ll return," the team leader said.
