According to Su Yun’s original plan, Xu Jiajia would become a shadow in this operation. What she needed to do was to reduce the number of people on the other side as much as possible and minimize the pressure on Su Yun.
The target that Xu Jiajia had imagined at that time should be some A-rank killers, perhaps the highest was not more than S-rank. But unexpectedly, a large number of fully armed mercenaries appeared.
The layout was already in chaos. Even so, since Su Yun had no intention of changing the plan, Xu Jiajia would not take half a step back either. The mercenaries did not seem to notice any danger here, so they were all relaxed. After all, this was outside the border, and they had no intention of being vigilant.
A one-eyed mercenary held a cigar in his mouth. As he unbuckled his belt, he left the team and walked into the forest. The others did not care about this at all and continued walking forward. After this one-eyed mercenary left the vision of the other mercenaries, he quickly arrived under a tree. He unbuckled his belt and wanted to pee. At this moment, he suddenly heard something above his head. He immediately looked up in confusion.
Xu Jiajia, who was wearing a tight black sportswear, was on the tree. She looked at him coldly with killing intent and softly said, “You’re the first.” Immediately after, her legs locked onto the tree branch. She hung upside down on the tree, casually crossing her daggers.
“Uh…” The one-eyed mercenary held his neck and struggled to make a sound, but in the end, he only fell into a pool of blood.
Xu Jiajia did not stop at all and quickly disappeared. Her entire set of actions was smooth. To a certain extent, she was much more professional at killing than Su Yun. She was like an invisible shadow that kept moving through the forest.
The dagger in her hands was gradually dyed red with blood. Every single mercenary who was alone could not escape death. She usually killed in one shot. If she failed, she would shoot again. She almost didn’t miss. She was like a shadow that appeared and disappeared.
“Five.”
“Ten.”
This shadow never appeared in the eyes of others easily, but once anyone saw it, it meant that his death was approaching. However, compared to the mercenary army that was rushing over, the mercenaries that Xu Jiajia had killed were only the tip of the iceberg.
Hence, Xu Jiajia was also anxious. What exactly did Su Yun want to do? Under such a disparity in strength, anyone should avoid it so that they would not court death. Otherwise, it would be no different from an egg hitting a rock.
However, after the last conversation, Xu Jiajia had no news of Su Yun. She felt a little uneasy and worried about Su Yun. Fortunately, a moment later, Xu Jiajia heard that familiar voice in her earpiece again. This time, Su Yun’s words were still very brief.
“Jiajia, are you alright? Leave the main battlefield to me. I’ll use the ancient
tomb to stop these mercenaries on their path and set up a killing trap for them. You must not expose yourself. Just weaken their strength in the periphery. Be careful.”
Before Xu Jiajia could say anything else, Su Yun had already disconnected. Furthermore, the signal seemed to be very weak and intermittent. He could no longer be contacted.
Xu Jiajia, who was hiding in the dark, frowned and thought about what Su Yun had just said. She was increasingly confused as to what Su Yun was up to. From the looks of it, there were at least a few hundred mercenaries. Despite the difference, Su Yun still claimed to stop them.
Could he really do it?
Xu Jiajia was actually not too sure about this. However, the only thing that supported her continued actions was her trust in Su Yun. At the very least, she would not abandon him and leave alone until she heard Su Yun officially give the order to retreat.
Xu Jiajia sighed softly and muttered to herself, “I danced with you during the bloody battles and killed for you. I’ve imagined these chuunibyou scenes in class for three years.”
Not far from the entrance of the main tomb of Chi You, who had been discovered outside the border, more than a hundred mercenaries had already gathered. The mercenary standing at the front of the team was code-named Divine Gun.
It belonged to the Mysterious Research Institute and was led by a white-robed man. After receiving the order, he personally led the troops over.
From this code name, it was not difficult to tell that this mercenary was very good at guns. Moreover, his marksmanship was extremely accurate. This could be seen from the various guns he was equipped with.
Not only was he equipped with a Fal automatic rifle, but he was also specially armed with a scorpion submachine gun. In addition, there were two pistols at his waist and a homemade pistol in the snatch strap on his leg.
The other mercenaries present were also equipped with various firearms, but most of them were AK47s or Fal automatic rifles. Although the AK47 was famous worldwide, mercenaries actually preferred and were more used to using Fal automatic rifles.
Because it was deeply loved by mercenaries, this gun also had another name, called the Right Hand of the Mercenaries. It had even been circulated overseas. Wherever there was a Fal automatic rifle, it meant that mercenaries would appear.
At this moment, these hundred fully armed mercenaries were standing here. Even if they did not speak, the killing intent they emitted was enough to make wild beasts retreat..
