Kapitel 66: The Inner City
Chapter 66
(Unedited)
…
Swoosh!!! Swoosh!!! Swoosh!!!
Several figures walked out from the darkness with glittering green eyes. Everyone is wearing high-tech gadgets which could make them able to see in the darkness.
"It seems that the rumors are true. You really are very strong… not human even." A person in white said while walking in front of the group.
"I am Gao Wen… the leader of the Hunters from the White Serpent Gang." The man introduced.
But he did not let Xin Wei say anything and just continued.
"We were going to hunt you because of the bounty in your head. But seeing what happened here, it seems that we would be meeting our doom if we do so. That's why I decided to fall back…"
"Fall back? Haha… To get more men? Do you think I'm stupid or something?" Xin Weir said in a cold tone.
"Young man, we know that you are very strong. But I suggest that you do not underestimate your enemies." The man said as he waves his hand and around twenty hunters took a step forward from amongst the armed men behind them.
"The number of casualties just increased…" Xin Wei said with a smirk.
"You insolent!" one of the hunters shouted and wanted to take action.
However, the man in white, Gao Wen, waves his hand to stop the hunter.
"We will not fight tonight… everyone retreat!" shouted Gao Wen as he suddenly throws on the ground a smoke bomb.
As the smoke spreads so did the rest of the hunters and the armed men. But how could Xin Wei let some of them go? He needs to show them that coming to this place and showing themselves would cause some of them their lives.
Whoosh!!! Whoosh!!! Whoosh!!! Whoosh!!!
Several sharp needle-like wires were thrown in the air by Xin Wei.
Even with the cover of the thick smoke, he was able to take down three of the Hunters and several armed men who are running from the area.
"No! Spike!"
"Kilowatt is down!"
"Trance is down!"
Shouts from the hunters came from deep within the smoke as their comrades fell on the ground. But the rest is now afraid to turn around and help them. How could they not know that the smoke bomb is actually helpless in covering their retreat?
Their enemy is truly a monster.
"White Flash, what should we do now?"
"Retreat! We have to report no matter what!"
"We will get the rest of the Hunters in this place and flatten it in one go. Let's see if that guy still fights against us!" shouted one of the Hunters.
But before he could say another word, something seems to have hit him and his expression turned blank. Then his eyes turned all white as he lifelessly fell to the ground.
"Damn it! He is hunting us one by one!" shouted White Flash as his figure suddenly disappears from the spot.
The rest of the Hunters are now filled with fear as they began to scatter all over the place.
…
With a slight smile on my face, I did not attack them anymore as my goal has been achieved. All I need now is for them to be able to successfully lead me to the camp of this White Serpent Gang.
I have already encountered someone from the Black Serpent, now the White Serpent is next. If I can get their location, then I could get a grasp for my next move.
I began to plan out while following these people who suddenly got into their vehicles and retreated from the suburbs.
While following them, I noticed that the group is going in another direction to the east of the base of the Black Serpent Gang which I remembered.
After an hour of following the group secretly through the ruins and the buildings, I then saw them entering a particular new building with many armed men stationed around it. And behind that building is a tall wall with a large gate. The wall is around 30 meters in height with many armed men patrolling at the top.
I did not expect that there is such a building in this place. This is still far from the city but I could tell that this is an important base that I have not noticed before.
City H is a very huge city with many tall buildings; hence I was not able to discover such a place before.
But from this place up to the inner part of the city will take me another 3 hours if I just ran in a straight line. But that would also expose me to many hidden sentries if I am not that careful.
Though I don't fear the hunters, I still did not want to incur any injuries because of my neglect. So I decided to shift my attention to another direction.
I need to exact my plan tonight before the break of dawn. Ling Ting must die.
With that in mind, I immediately ran towards the direction of the Black Serpent Gang's base. Since I am familiar with the terrain in this place, after passing through a couple of settlements, I soon reached a tall wall.
I know that on the other side of this wall is the inner city. Touching the wall, I could feel that this wall was not slowly made by many people. Its rough surface makes it look like someone raised it from the ground.
The earthen wall was then covered with concrete which now turned into this very high wall. Without hesitation, I jump at around 10 meters high and then extended my hand to claw on the wall's surface.
It felt like soft clay as I easily clawed my way up the wall.
When I was about to reach the top, I slowed down as I suddenly noticed something from afar to my right side.
"A camera!" I thought in alarm.
Without hesitation, I quickly gathered all of my strength and then propelled my body high up in the air towards the very top of the wall.
Whoosh!!!
The armed man was startled and looks around. However, he found no one and was about to leave. But then I was already falling towards him.
Thud!
Without any warning, I quickly broke his neck and then take his bullets. I have already taken a rifle from the Hunters that have fallen. But I did not bother with the bullets, as I wanted to chase after those escaping Hunters and their armed troops.
I suddenly discover that entering the inner city is actually this easy. I was wondering why I wasted all of those days outside trying to formulate my next move when it was this easy.
Using the map that I have gotten from the laptop, I look at a small phone that I have gotten my hands into and then look at the map of city H.
"I have to go to this place to enter the bar district… Then from there, I could to the Dancing Swan Bar through this alley…"
After a while of plotting and planning, I turned my attention towards the direction of the many lights. Walking forward, I soon found myself in the middle of a familiar place where I might have been before. There are many people in this place who are unaware of the real danger outside the inner city.
Many who are starving and being treated as a slave lives there while the people in this place live normal lives. They go to work, make friends, fall in love, go home, eat, and sleep. Then the next day they would do the same routine again.
But of course, these people have to walk a very thin line so that the Syndicate would not have them in their sight. Once they committed a slight mistake or been targeted by someone then their happy and simple life would immediately end and be turned into one that is synonymous with living hell.
I blended with the people by taking some clothes that I found in the trash. It is still wearable but it seems that the alley I was in is near a clothes shop.
And so I took the jacket and then wore it in to conceal the weapons on my body.
As I walked out of the alley and then reached the main walkway of the busy street, I found myself reminiscing about a lot of things. But then I suddenly discover from the corner of my eyes a person standing beside me.
When that person looks at me, he showed a sly smile. He has golden teeth and his shifty reaction makes him look shady.
Suddenly, I heard from afar a whistle.
"Damn it!" I said but also heard the man saying the same thing.
As if he thought that we were both in trouble with the authorities in the inner city. I did not why he thinks about this, but his action made me feel a bit dumbfounded.
He suddenly grabbed my hand and then said in a loud voice.
"Run!"
