A group of senior staff members arranged by the Kassel College headquarters began to get off the bus. They were all foreigners, each with a muscular build, as big as Schwarzenegger and Stallone, with their large pectoral muscles almost bursting through their T-shirts.
Their clothes were all over the place; some wore Adidas, some wore Hongxing Erke, and some wore Warrior canvas shoes. In short, all their clothes looked like domestic products, but the people themselves were not.
These seasoned, muscular men, reportedly capable of storming the Pentagon in just sixteen, include several former Navy SEALs and former MI6 agents.
With nine people assigned to Chu Zihang, they are more than capable of taking over a privately-owned building.
The Runde Building is controlled by the Hunter Team led by Tang Wei. They have contracted the security work of this building, and all the security guards are their people.
Chu Zihang and his team's mission was to infiltrate Tang Wei's office on the 21st floor and retrieve the SS-level document before 7:00 PM.
Now that the execution department has finalized the plan, Chu Zihang instructed the muscular men to prepare, and the mission would officially begin in five minutes.
Wearing a 'flower delivery' uniform, he walked towards Runde Building and sneaked into the building under the pretext of delivering flowers.
Five minutes later, the operation officially began.
A nine-man team of seasoned musclemen began creating chaos on the first floor to attract the attention of the security guards on the ground floor of Runde Building.
Runde Building is a twin tower, and Chu Zihang went to the top floor, the 46th floor, and jumped to the 21st floor of Tower A using the suspension bridge facility for cleaning windows, just like Jackie Chan jumping off a building.
There is only one company on the 21st floor, Tang Wei's security company. As long as Chu Zihang can sweep through the building within four minutes and forty seconds, he can retrieve the data and complete the mission.
Soon, Chu Zihang encountered the building's security guards, all of whom were burly, strong men.
Most of these security guards are just ordinary people, with a few mixed-race individuals mixed in.
A ten-person team approached them. Upon seeing Chu Zihang, the uninvited guest, they immediately attacked without saying a word.
When dealing with invaders, of course, you have to beat them up first.
Chu Zihang, as the intruder, did not use Murasame because Professor Schneider had specifically instructed him not to cause large-scale casualties.
So he used close combat, relying on physical strength and the skills of ancient Chinese martial arts, to defeat six people in an instant. Before the remaining four could react, their companion was already on the ground, unable to get up.
The four of them looked at each other in bewilderment.
Where did this expert come from?
Fortunately, everyone on this floor was one of their own, so reinforcements arrived quickly. Another group of men rushed over; they were all muscular giants. Regardless of their fighting ability, their muscles alone were quite intimidating.
Chapter 254: Mission Completed Ahead of Schedule
Chu Zihang saw that there were more and more security guards on the 21st floor, but he was not flustered.
Because these people are generally not very strong, he is confident that he can complete the mission on time even without using Murasame.
But at this moment, an invisible realm suddenly opened up, and an ethereal song reached Chu Zihang's ears, with ancient, solemn, and obscure characters chanting.
This is the sound of Long Wen chanting!
Word of Power: King's Servant can enhance all physical abilities within its domain.
Legend has it that in ancient times, the dragon race used this incantation to inspire humans and animals who were loyal to them and to strengthen the fighting power of their army.
Chu Zihang frowned slightly, not expecting anyone here to know this Word of Power; the plan had taken an unexpected turn.
At this moment, these muscular security guards seemed to be enveloped in an aura of encouragement; each of them was extremely excited, like centaurs, ready to lead the charge at any moment.
The surge of adrenaline made them forget their fear and they began to attack Chu Zihang again.
Chu Zihang was at a loss for what to do and could only temporarily avoid the attack.
Because if he were to make a move at this point, he would have to escalate his attack further, which would require him to use Word of Power: King's Flame and Murasame, or even Blood Explosion!
He hasn't used his Bloodlust ability in a long time.
Blood Explosion cannot be turned off manually. Each time Blood Explosion occurs, it means that the genes of the dragon blood are further eroding his body.
In the end, he can only become Deadpool!
*……*……*
Meanwhile, on the top floor of Runde Building.
When Hunter Tang Wei heard that the 21st floor had been invaded, he immediately came to this hidden office.
The office on the 21st floor is just a cover; it's the safest place there, and generally no one will find it.
But to his surprise, when he arrived at the office from the hidden elevator, there were already people waiting outside.
He watched the uninvited guest barge in with trepidation. The man was dressed as a deliveryman, but was carrying a short knife.
His office, surrounded by iron fences, was easily slashed to pieces by this man with a dagger.
This short knife can cut through iron like mud, and it's as sharp as a catfish's tail, its cold light gleaming with unparalleled sharpness.
Tang Wei saw the person clearly; it was a boy with delicate features and a powerful, explosive physique.
"Hey, I don't want to kill you, but you took something you shouldn't have at the train station today." The boy spread his palms and smiled.
Upon hearing his explanation of his purpose, Tang Wei immediately took the document out of the safe and handed it to the boy.
“I haven’t opened it or looked at it,” Tang Wei said.
“I know you don’t have the guts.” The boy stuffed the documents into his waterproof jacket and waved to Tang Wei, “I’m leaving. You’re responsible for the aftermath. Don’t make a big fuss and don’t alert the higher-ups.”
"Yes, yes." Tang Wei looked at the handsome boy with great respect.
"Oh, by the way, you made a lot of money this time, didn't you? Two and a half million US dollars, so easily earned. I bet you'll feel guilty taking it." As he spoke, the boy wrote a string of numbers on a sticky note, "Give me a million, RMB is fine."
Tang Wei was stunned for a moment. This... involved robbery?
But one million RMB is only about 150,000 US dollars, which is a small amount of money for Tang Wei, who is preparing to retire from crime.
You should know that he had just told his father about his affairs after his death, thinking that his enemies were coming to seek revenge and that he was going to die.
Surprisingly, the young man actually gave him a way out, allowing him to retire smoothly!
"Okay, okay, I'll transfer the money to you via online banking right away!" Tang Wei quickly agreed.
"I'm leaving."
After saying that, the boy actually jumped off the balcony.
This is forty-six floors!
He instinctively peeked out and discovered that this person seemed to have superpowers, walking downstairs with both feet pressed against the wall.
……
the other side.
Now, Chu Zihang was forced to retreat by these people, and he held back from drawing his sword.
If I draw my sword, I'll be about to hurt people. But there are so many people in front of me; I can't cause widespread casualties until the very last moment.
Finally, he retreated to the suspension bridge outside the building, with nowhere else to go.
We must take immediate action; we can no longer remain passive.
He looked around and suddenly realized that there was too much moisture in the air. Even when it rained, there wouldn't be such thick fog.
At that moment, a rusty Maybach drove into the first floor of the Runde Building.
When Chu Zihang saw the Maybach, he was stunned for a moment, and the memory that had been bothering him for a long time came flooding back to him.
The Maybach suddenly accelerated and crashed into the load-bearing wall of the Runde Building, causing the entire building to shake.
The suspension bridge that Chu Zihang was standing on had its cables snapped due to the recent tremors.
In an instant, the suspension bridge, weighing hundreds of kilograms, and Chu Zihang's body began to fall!
Chu Zihang understood; these people were just trying to push him into a corner.
This place is a dead end; most people would have fallen and died by now.
In that instant, Chu Zihang made a decision.
It's time for a blood explosion!
"Hey, did you miss me, senior brother? Don't be impulsive!"
Just as Chu Zihang was falling, a familiar voice sounded in his earphones.
Chu Zihang, who was about to explode with blood, controlled his emotions and let his body free fall in the air.
Just as his body fell two floors, a rope flew down, which Chu Zihang immediately caught, and then used the rope to swing onto the glass of the floor.
He looked up and saw Gu Ran on a windowsill on the 25th floor, dressed like himself in the clothes for flower delivery.
"The Dragon Slayer Sword has applied to join the mission. I'm also informing everyone that the mission is complete. The documents are with me now. Chu Zihang and I will now retreat downstairs." Gu Ran tied a rope to a kunai and then shot off into the building opposite.
Chu Zihang was stunned for a moment, but he also entered from a nearby floor and did not continue to hang outside. He began to retreat.
"What's going on?" Manstein's voice came through the earpiece. "Gu Ran, did you get the documents?"
"Yes, Tang Wei's office on the 21st floor is fake. His actual office is on the top floor. During your feint attack, I went to the top floor and got the documents."
Norma received the original blueprints from the developer, but Tang Wei made modifications to his own floor after leasing the 21st floor. These modifications couldn't be made public, so Norma was unaware of them.
"Then how did you know it was on the top floor?" Manstein asked.
“You’re all too reliant on Norma.” Gu Ran had known this all along, of course. He made up an excuse to appease the three professors, “I’ll get a security guard to beat him up and he’ll confess everything.”
The three professors at the executive headquarters remained silent, relying on Norma to make decisions and failing to consider the most basic method.
Actually, it's because it's too far away and time is too tight, so there's no time to send out an investigation team.
Manstein continued, "How did you know about the mission?"
"Ten minutes ago, I turned on my phone and Norma called me and told me about the mission."
“It was my arrangement. I had Norma keep in touch with Gu Ran.” Schneider’s voice came through the communication channel. “With Gu Ran’s involvement, the success rate increased, and that proved to be true; the mission was a great success.”
“Yes, Professor,” Gu Ran continued, “Everyone can now evacuate.”
Gu Ran breathed a sigh of relief. He was gathering chakra in his feet and hands, then, sticking to the outer wall of the Runde Building, he jumped vertically down, just like Spider-Man.
He naturally knew where Tang Wei's stronghold was from the beginning, but there was a reason why he didn't take action beforehand.
If the data had been retrieved beforehand, Jormungandr wouldn't have had the opportunity to modify the documents.
Therefore, Jormungandr must finish his own business first before he can make his move.
Intervening at this time is just right. Chu Zihang has attracted Jormungandr's attention, and Gu Ran suddenly appears, taking the opportunity to retrieve the data from the top floor.
