Chapter 1136: Chapter 1182: An Unexpected Encounter with Two Masters

Li Yifei really didn’t expect to encounter Mig’s SEAL team here, and Mig clearly didn’t expect to bump into Li Yifei at this time.

After they called out each other’s names, both of them suddenly fell silent.

Mig was the first to speak, "Golden Eagle, it seems your luck isn’t that great, to sneak attack right into me."

Li Yifei laughed and said, "Indeed, quite unlucky. It wasted a good chance for a sneak attack."

"I say Golden Eagle, how many cards do you have now?" Mig suddenly asked.

"Not many, just over fifty."

Mig said with his characteristic American humor, "You’ve already got over fifty, could you possibly share a few with me? I’ve only got a little over forty."

"Sure, since you’re putting it that way, even if you asked for them all, I’d give them to you."

"Golden Eagle is really generous, but I still prefer to snatch them from your hands. Come on, we haven’t seen each other for over a year. Just so you know, I’ve improved a lot, while you seem to have been living too comfortably, probably haven’t made much progress, have you?"

"Big or not, we’ll only know after we try, won’t we? Do you want to fight now, or wait until the end?"

"I think it’s better to wait until the end. If we determine the victor between us, I’m afraid the winner would be completely exhausted, and then any small team could come and wipe us out. That would be a big loss."

"No problem, I just had a fight with that guy Satan a while ago, this time will be great to enjoy a good fight with you."

"That’s OK then, Golden Eagle. How come you’re alone, don’t tell me all your teammates are done for?"

"Haha, the only done for teammate I know of is Inoue Aoga from the Japanese Kamikaze Squad."

"Inoue Aoga, who is that? I’ve never heard of them," Mig said, puzzled.

Li Yifei chuckled and said, "I, for one, hope you run into him."

"It sounds like this guy must be strong. Although I know you mean no good by saying this, I still fancy seeing what kind of experts Japan has."

Japan always used to look up to the United States, but over the last two years, they haven’t been so willing to listen to us. As a senior SEAL from the United States, this kind of thing feels really annoying, like a betrayal. So, if Mig gets the chance to confront an expert from the Japanese side, he absolutely wouldn’t mind giving them a good thrashing.

"Then I won’t bother you anymore. Carry on," said Li Yifei, and he had already stepped back swiftly. If Mig really did get into a fight with that guy Inoue Aoga first, Li Yifei wouldn’t mind at all. By then, he might very well gain an advantage by being the beneficiary of others’ battles.

Li Yifei didn’t wait for Mig and Inoue Aoga to encounter each other, but instead, another two squads turned up.

These two squads also encountered each other unexpectedly. The first one, upon realizing someone was following, stopped to prepare for an ambush, while the other squad, caught off guard, was taken by surprise,

although the ambushed squad seemed a bit stronger. Despite losing one man in the ambush and being in a four against five situation, they still managed to fight on equal footing with the opposition.

Li Yifei was in no hurry to make a move, letting them finish almost to the end before he would act.

The squad members continued to fight while moving, quickly leaving the area below the tree where Li Yifei’s squad was stationed, and Yifei kept his distance from them.

Finally, the battle reached its climax, and ironically, the remaining four-person team ended up overwhelming the five-person team. Not only did they take back the lost card, but they also snatched five more cards. However, they paid a price, with three members of their team "killed," which meant they could no longer participate in the competition. Unless they planned on cheating, which would involve eliminating all the members of the five opposing squads.

As soldiers, especially from the strongest elite forces, they all greatly cherish their reputations. Even if they can’t bring honor to their country, they must not bring disgrace. Tactics can be discussed, but outright cheating, unless it could go undetected, is something none would do.

With only two people remaining, they were nearly exhausted from the fight and were just about to sit down and rest to enjoy the fruits of victory when three shadows suddenly shot out of the thick fog, all charging towards them.

Among them was Li Yifei, and it was only when he charged in front of those two that he realized there were two other people around, who he hadn’t noticed before. Those skilled enough to remain unseen were none other than Inoue Aoga and Mig.

Inoue Aoga and Mig also didn’t expect there to be another two opponents. At this moment, they both let out a low shout, neither daring to make a move on the other two, stopping their advance instead. Launching an attack and seizing the cards at this moment would certainly provoke a joint attack from the other pair, which definitely wasn’t a wise move.

A gust of wind blew by, clearing the fog a bit, broadening their visibility. Only then did the two notice Li Yifei and the others, jumping up at once, back to back, nervously staring at the trio.

Mig spread his hands and asked, "Golden Eagle, what do you think?"

Li Yifei smiled faintly and said, "I don’t want it, you two go ahead."

Mig chuckled and replied, "If you don’t want it, then neither do I." He then walked towards Li Yifei as if really giving up, catching up with Yifei like old times.

The two back-to-back were German special forces members. Hearing that this was the famous Golden Eagle and the other was that fellow Mig, and though they didn’t recognize the third person, seeing that even Mig and Golden Eagle were wary of him, they knew he must also be a formidable character. Now in front of these three experts, they couldn’t muster the slightest will to resist. They were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, powerless to have a say in how they’d be divvied up.

Just as Mig was two meters away from Li Yifei, he suddenly grinned at Li Yifei and said, "Golden Eagle, I always felt you were my biggest opponent. If we were to fight at the end, my chances of winning are slim. So I’ve decided, to team up with Inoue first and take you down."

Li Yifei narrowed his eyes and said, "I truly didn’t see that coming."

Inoue Aoga let out a sinister smile and said, "You didn’t expect this, did you? Our Great Japan has always maintained close military ties with the United States. It’s only natural for us to work together."

Li Yifei indeed hadn’t expected Mig to team up with Inoue Aoga, which is why he had let Mig easily get into position right in front of him, while Inoue Aoga was right behind him. The three of them were in a straight line, with Li Yifei caught in the middle—a decidedly disadvantageous position for him. With a light smile, Li Yifei said, "I overlooked this point. Still, I’m grateful to you, Mig. If you had just ambushed me, I would surely have been in a tight spot."

Mig shrugged his shoulders and said, "Golden Eagle, you’re a strong fighter. I’ve always wanted a fair fight with you. But this time national interests are involved, and as a soldier, I have to put my country’s interests first. I need to claim this card for myself, as you pose the greatest threat to me. I hope you understand."

Inoue Aoga snorted, "Golden Eagle, just surrender gracefully. Hand over your card, and I can spare your life. With our combined attack, you have no chance at all."

"Is that so?" Li Yifei replied lightly.

"Haha, why even ask? Your strength is comparable to mine. In terms of power, as Huaxia people say, we are evenly matched. One-on-one, it’s indeed tough to determine a winner. But two-on-one, what choice do you have but to surrender?" Mig said while sighing.

"Mig," he continued, "I think Inoue is right. Hand over the card you have, this isn’t a fair duel and I don’t want you to get hurt. Otherwise, I’ll lose a worthy opponent."

Li Yifei had roughly figured it out by now; Mig didn’t really want to kill him. He was after the card in Li’s hand. For Mig, the threat posed by Li Yifei’s Flying Hawk Squad to his team was still too great. If Li Yifei handed over the card, it would mean withdrawing from the competition, which was enough for Mig. However, Inoue Aoga clearly didn’t think so. What he wanted most was to egg Mig on, to join forces and kill Li Yifei.

Li Yifei laughed and said, "Good suggestion, but I too am a soldier. For the honor of my country, I cannot give up so easily."

Inoue Aoga was elated. This was in line with what he and Mig had agreed upon beforehand. If Li Yifei were to concede, they would spare him, but if he refused to surrender, they would have no choice but to take action. Wary of Mig having second thoughts, Inoue shouted, "Golden Eagle, prepare to die!" He lunged at Li Yifei immediately.

Mig shook his head; his aura burst forth and with a deep shout, he launched a punch at Li Yifei. Knowing Inoue Aoga’s treacherous nature, Mig had no choice but to strike.

"So you want to kill me? You’re too naive!" Li Yifei bellowed, his fighting spirit surging out as he stamped his foot hard and sent two fists hurtling towards Mig with the force of thunder, inexorable and with the air of someone betting everything on one strike.

Mig was shocked; he had only used a portion of his strength with the punch, merely wanting to force Li Yifei into a desperate situation and have him clash head-on with Inoue. But Li Yifei had actually targeted him from the start.

Despite being surprised, a fighter like Mig had a swift reaction. With another loud yell, he increased the power in his punch to nine-tenths of his full strength – reaching full power was impossible in such a short time.

Yet Mig considered Li Yifei’s actions incorrect, as a full-force clash like this wouldn’t hurt him much. At most, it might push him back, but his counterattack would force the best response from Li Yifei. Meanwhile, Inoue Aoga behind was aiming for the kill. Wasn’t this just giving Inoue Aoga the opportunity he wanted?
