Supremely Talented Tyrant
Chapter 850 - 849: If You Don't Save Them, I'll Shout!

"I don't care if you're a female doctor or an old lady, and I don't care what mood you are in, leave with me immediately! If you don't want to stay here anymore, then come with me right now!"

Hao Jian had no time to waste. He instantly dashed to the female doctor's side, scooped her up in a princess carry, and rushed out towards the main gate.

"You... you... what are you doing!? Where are you taking me?!"

Suddenly being lifted by a strange man, Chi Ruo's face flushed red, and she asked with a hint of anxiety, "If you don't explain, I will resist!"

"I was sent by the old man from the national organization to rescue you. If you don't want to go back to the country, then I'll just leave you here for the mercenaries to take care of, and I'll tell the minister the mission failed when I get back."

Dashing past a concealed corner, Hao Jian hurriedly explained the situation to Chi Ruo. His gaze then turned cold as he stared at Chi Ruo in his arms and said harshly, "I almost lost my life trying to save you, so you'd better not say anything that angers me."

This mission wasn't originally his concern, but after being approached by Secretary Zhang, he reluctantly took it. He had even been nearly killed by his own people. He had decided that once he safely returned to Huaxia, he would definitely settle scores with Secretary Zhang. If Zhang can't compensate for the emotional distress, then he shouldn't contact him for missions anymore.

"Hmph, hmph, hmph! Fine, don't talk then!"

Seeing Hao Jian's ferocious look, which was even more terrifying than those monitoring her, Chi Ruo's pretty face turned pale as she turned her head and let out a light huff.

Since she was being rescued by someone sent by the national organization, she could momentarily trust him. Although this guy was fierce, he was much better than the mercenaries at this base, who only demanded her to research and even delivered food through a small opening at the door. She was so done with this imprisoned life.

...........................

"Boss! The base has been invaded by unknown personnel, and the room holding Dr. Chi has been breached. We just can't locate where the intruder is!"

In a room filled with various electronic devices, people continuously reported various pieces of information to the man standing in the center…

"Search! Immediately pull up all the surveillance. We've been invaded, how could you let this happen!?" Upon hearing the report, the man's face turned grim as he threw the water cup in his hand to the floor. The sound of the breaking cup made everyone's heart skip a beat, and they hastily increased their efforts into their work.

Wales, a powerful mercenary from the Mercenary Alliance, is ranked between fifty-six and fifty-seven among world mercenaries, making him quite a formidable mercenary.

The Mercenary Alliance was concerned about potential complications this time and deliberately sent Wales, who had just completed a mission, to ensure control over the situation. After all, they had offended the Huaxia government this time, and if they weren't careful, Chi Ruo might be rescued soon.

Wales confidently took on the task, knowing that the Huaxia mercenaries were all occupied with missions and couldn't break free anytime soon, and those not from Huaxia wouldn't likely get involved in this particular incident.

After all, the Mercenary Alliance wasn't just any mob. Those considering getting involved had to weigh their own capabilities.

Yet, he never expected that their well-guarded base could be invaded in an instant, and the intruder managed to penetrate so deeply!

After all, their base was equipped with the world's most sophisticated surveillance and defense systems, and ordinary mercenaries couldn't possibly infiltrate, unless they were among the top ten ranked globally.

But was such a scenario possible? Wales didn't believe those guys would bother to meddle in this affair, and even that renowned Huaxia expert was on a mission; there was no way they could get involved, or else the Mercenary Alliance wouldn't have sent him here.

"Boss! We've found it!"

As Wales was growing worried internally, a voice snapped him back to reality. With a cold glance towards the subordinate reporting to him, he spoke in a deep voice, "Speak!"

"Based on our initial investigation, this man invaded our base. However, the smoke was too thick at the time, and our hidden cameras only captured blurry footage..."

"And his location was exactly where we detained Dr. Chi Ruo. I think that after all this time, he must have located Dr. Chi Ruo and might still be inside the base!"

As he spoke, the mercenary flipped open the tablet in his hand, capturing the image of Hao Jian leaping through the smoke, though his face remained unidentified.

"Regardless, issue an order to everyone in our base to start a carpet-style search centered on this point. There's no way this person would treat our base like it's unguarded!"

Wales' face also looked terrible. It had been two minutes since the intruders were spotted, and if more time passed, they might not even find the person. Therefore, a thorough search must be conducted, otherwise, if Dr. Chi were taken away, his return to the Alliance would surely lead to his death by those bosses!

"Yes!"

The mercenary nodded and hurriedly ran down to issue the command to the mercenaries who were still wandering around the base searching for Hao Jian.

..............................

"Why do these guys suddenly seem so clever?"

Having evaded a round of searches, Hao Jian, hiding in a corner, also grew increasingly anxious. Initially, the mercenaries had merely run past him without thorough searches, but now, they seemed desperate enough to even turn over mouse holes.

"Hey! I need to go save someone!"

Just as Hao Jian was about to move forward, Chi Ruo, who was in his arms, also shouted out loudly, startling Hao Jian, whose face instantly changed as he stomped his foot, covered Chi Ruo's mouth with one hand, and instantly jumped to the ventilation duct above his head, holding his breath and suppressing his heartbeat.

"Where are they?! There was a noise here just now!"

Right after Hao Jian finished doing this, four or five mercenaries armed with weapons suddenly ran to the corner where Hao Jian had just hidden. They carefully inspected the area, and one of them seemed to sense something, his face suddenly changing as he said, "Someone was just here! This corner of the wall still retains some warmth; search quickly! They haven't gone far!"

With that, these four or five mercenaries directly ran toward the direction they believed the intruders had gone, reporting some information over their radios as they ran.

"Fuck! Are you trying to get me killed?!"

Seeing the mercenaries leave, Hao Jian breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at Chi Ruo with a fierce look that made Chi Ruo's pretty face show a trace of horror.

"I'm going to let go now, and you better behave, or I swear I'll throw you into the sea to feed the fish!"

The low voice was filled with endless anger, making Chi Ruo quickly nod her head like a pecking chick. Seeing her like this, Hao Jian slowly removed the hand blocking her mouth...

"I need to go save my colleagues! They were also captured…"

Learning from the last experience, she spoke very softly this time, so low that even Hao Jian nearly couldn't hear her...

"No! Our current situation is too dangerous. It's already extremely difficult for me to get just you out. If we bring so many more people, we will become too big a target and will be discovered immediately!"

Hearing Chi Ruo still wanted him to rescue her colleagues, Hao Jian rejected the idea without even thinking about it. Bringing the bothersome Dr. Chi had already caused him to be discovered several times. If it weren't for his quick response earlier, they would have been noticed by the mercenaries already. Now to take along these additional burdens, it was simply impossible.

Moreover, the mission he received this time was only to rescue Chi Ruo, and it didn't mention rescuing others. Of course, if the situation was safe now, Hao Jian wouldn't mind trying to save them, but they were already discovered. With this woman by his side who loved to shout out, how could he possibly go and rescue others?

Hao Jian certainly hasn't lived enough yet!

"If you don't go save them, then let's just get caught together! Anyway, if they die, they definitely won't let anything happen to me!" Hearing Hao Jian wouldn't rescue them, Chi Ruo's pretty face looked awful. She was about to scream out loud to get those people to discover her location…

"Slap!"

But before she could scream, Hao Jian's hand swiftly struck Chi Ruo's back, knocking her unconscious. With the lesson learned from the last time, how could Hao Jian let this woman do it again?

"Damn it, if it wasn't because that old man specifically mentioned needing you, I would have long stopped caring about whether you lived or died, and yet you still want to drag me down with you? Forget about it!"

Looking at Chi Ruo who had fainted in his arms, Hao Jian muttered a curse and quickly hoisted her onto his shoulder. After looking around, he immediately jumped down from the top of the ventilation duct.

Initially, Hao Jian was thinking about escaping through the ventilation duct, but he quickly abandoned this idea. Since he had already been exposed, his method of sneaking in might be discovered by the enemy. In that case, they might set up ambushes at key points in the ventilation ducts, waiting for him to fall into their trap.
