Chapter 1001, Bullying the Few with the Many
A large fire suddenly burned in the 73rd Barrier Guard Troop Barracks, originally when the barracks were constructed Zhou used a large amount of fireproofing materials to prevent a fire from occurring in the barracks.
But this time, it wasn’t an act of God, but someone deliberately used volatile high energy fuel, at this time, the garrison troops in the barracks rushed towards the fire scene, an eyewitness soldier said that there were only five arsonists, but each of the other party’s hands were extremely athletic, and ordinary people couldn’t catch them at all.
They left immediately after setting the fire, and a company of soldiers from the garrison pursued them.
Outside the camp was the residential area, and those five people climbed up to the roof of the building with nimble hands and feet.
The Zhou’s troops in the rear looked at the five-story residential building, although the building wasn’t that high, but the problem was that they didn’t know how to climb up ah.
On weekdays, they would also receive professional climbing training to deal with complex terrain combat.
But this wall didn’t even have a water pipe that could lend a hand in their eyes, and they didn’t even know how those five people climbed up!
The officer in charge of this pursuit yelled, “Don’t climb, we’ll pursue them at ground level, there’s a small street ahead to block them, they won’t be able to continue jumping between buildings by then.”
As they spoke, hundreds of Zhou soldiers ran quickly, one of the combat squads even marched at full speed just to intercept the other party when they reached the street.
The street in front of these five people’s march was twelve meters wide, and it was simply impossible for a normal person to leap from the roof of a building to the opposite side of the road.
At this time, the ground pursuit force can only occasionally see the silhouette of the roof of the building in front of them flying up, to the officers’ surprise, the other party’s leaping speed is much faster than they imagined!
Both sides were about to approach the street ahead, but Zhou’s troops were never able to close the distance between them.
The officer said, ”Don’t be in a hurry, wait for them to land and shoot immediately! By then, they’ll be in the firing angle!”
However, the moment the words fell, the five people on the roof reached the last residential building on the street and unexpectedly jumped at the same time!
That twelve meter wide street was like an abyss, but they flew through it as if they were geese!
Zhou’s officers froze, were these still normal people? Could all five be Transcendents?
But which organization was this that was wreaking havoc in Barrier 73, to find five Transcendents to act at the same time.
In a daze, a Zhou officer in military uniform with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel actually rushed out from a slash.
A soldier exclaimed, “It’s Zhou Lin, the Transcendent from the garrison, he chased after them!”
The Lieutenant Colonel of the Zhou Clan’s troops named Zhou Lin took it in his stride, he could still hear the shouts of the soldiers behind him as he crossed the street to continue his pursuit, he sneered and didn’t even turn his head back.
Zhou Lin plunged headlong into the alley across the street, but at that moment, he suddenly realized that he had been adorned with a teenager behind him at some point.
And the five arsonists who were being chased by him in front of him, actually stopped and turned back to look at him playfully.
One of them even laughed at the teenager behind him, “Qin Sheng, block the road, don’t let him escape.”
“Okay Brother Qingxi,” Qin Sheng responded.
Zhang Qingxi said to Li Yinglong on the side, “This kid Qin Sheng’s natural talent is just fine, his physical fitness grew much faster than ours after becoming a Knight, and his Fist Dipper is a bit more raw than ours.”
Li Yinglong sighed with emotion, “Yes, why didn’t I see at first that this kid actually has a clear skeleton.”
There were high and low levels of strength within knights, depending on each person’s own talent; some people’s physical qualities were locked near the T5 rank once they became knights, while others were able to continue to grow.
Now, Qin Sheng had already surpassed Zhang Qingxi and Li Yinglong after becoming a knight for less than a year.
Zhou Lin coldly surveyed the six people before asking a very stupid question, “Why don’t you guys run?”
“You have to run only if you can’t beat them, and if you can beat them, of course you won’t run,” Zhang Qingxi explained with a smile, “It’s you, how did you dare to chase them out alone? Is it because you think we’re easy to bully?”
To be honest, it would be a rogue act if the Knight Organization wanted to wreak havoc in a walled city.
Ordinary troops wouldn’t be able to catch up, and Transcendents would be countered if they didn’t have as many people as they did.
Nowadays, whenever they acted, twelve of them would be together, looking at the world, it was impossible for any consortium to put twelve Transcendents in a ledge to specifically deal with them ah.
Any other Transcendent might not be able to comfortably travel through the city, and might be surrounded by ground troops.
But these people, one by one, played extreme sports, running a building was the same feeling as running on flat ground.
At this time, two more knights came out of the alley, Xu Ke and Wen Meng.
Only, Xu Ke and Wen Meng still have bandages on their bodies, Xu Ke is hanging his left arm, and Wen Meng is limping, it looks like they were injured in the process of assisting the retreat of the fire and the refugees.
Zhou Lin looked at the other party’s increasing numbers, suddenly a little overwhelmed, and the most critical thing is that the other party exchanging pleasantries and asking about the progress of the mission completion, did not take him seriously at all.
Zhang Qingxi said, “I don’t know if Wu Dingyuan’s side of the mission has been completed yet, should we go and pick him up?”
Zhou Lin was just about to say something, but as a result, the sound of wind drumming came from behind him, and he subconsciously rolled over to avoid it, but all the knights around him actually swarmed to knock him down with their fists in a messy manner, and he didn’t even have time to use his own abilities.
Whenever he tried to focus on using his transcendent abilities, there would definitely be fists suddenly pounding on him, interrupting his abilities!
These knights present were clearly seven times his own number, but the other party was even using the talking to attract attention and sneak attacking from behind routine!
It was too despicable!
It wasn’t until Zhou Lin vomited blood and died that Wu Dingyuan and Huang Xiaoyu rushed over from the rear, and the two of them said, “It’s been killed.”
What the two of them had killed was none other than Zhou’s military supreme commander, Zhou Yifei.
In this operation, the five of them were responsible for arson to attract attention, Qin Sheng and the other two wounded were responsible for receiving them outside, while Wu Dingyuan and Huang Xiaoyu were responsible for decapitation.
Li Yinglong nodded, “According to what Xiao Su said, Zhou Shiji will definitely head to the safe house to take refuge after hearing the news from the garrison.”
“Then where are we going next? To meet up with him? Also, when are we going to tell him about what we discussed earlier?” Zhang Qingxi asked.
“Let’s wait until we’ve calmed down Zhou’s affairs first,” Li Yinglong replied.
Before that, the Knights Organization broke away from the Green Harvest Group and stopped going back, and released signals to the outside world that they would fight to the death with anyone who hit Luo City.
It was only because if they were used for defense, they were weak and couldn’t fight against the main force of the consortium, but if they were used for destruction, no consortium would be able to carry it.
The reason why Zhou was so careful to conceal his identity when he assassinated Jiang Xu was also because he was worried about inviting the Knight’s retaliation.
Now that the enemy had been identified, the Knight must defend what he had said with a lesson in blood, so that others would not dare to hit Luo City again.
