<h4>Chapter 1294: Chapter 1602: Siege of Skyhawk Pavilion (Part 4)</h4>
"Damn!" Seeing the defensive line twenty meters away, Yuan Yun couldn’t help but curse. After so much effort to get through the dark tunnel, who would have thought there was a second line of defense on the other side. At this rate, who knows how long it will take to break through.
"Watch out for grenades," Ling Chen shouted loudly, leaning against the cover. Their cover was barely twenty meters away from Skyhawk Pavilion’s second defensive line, just within grenade range. No matter what, they couldn’t give the enemy a chance.
Just then, someone from the opposite line suddenly stood up, holding a grenade, ready to throw it over to the cover. "Watch out!" Qiu Yong eximed in a hurry when he saw this.
At this moment, Zhang Zhongfeng, who had been hiding under the cover, stood up abruptly, raised his bow and nocked an arrow,pleting the motion seamlessly. Before everyone could react, the sharp arrow had already pierced that person’s wrist.
A miserable scream was heard, and before the grenade in that person’s hand could be thrown out, it fell to the ground.
BOOM!
With a loud explosion, at least four people were sted off, blood sttering everywhere.
"Good job, Zhang Zhongfeng!" Ling Chen chuckled. With an arrow master here, let’s see who dares to throw grenades over now.
As expected, with Zhang Zhongfeng’s deterrence, the opponents didn’t dare to continue using grenades and all hid behind their cover.
As time went by, Ling Chen became somewhat anxious; this was not working, they had to find a way to break through their line of defense.
Just then, Liu Dongsheng quickly ran over from the dark tunnel entrance, "Mr. Ling, night has fallen, Su He and the others have at most two hours to arrive."
Ling Chen opened his mouth, about to speak. Before he could utter a word, Wei Jiahao came rushing over, urgently saying, "Ling Cheng, there’s trouble, the people outside have been attacked."
"By whom?"
"Don’t know, we couldn’t even see the shadows, and in the blink of an eye, four or five people disappeared."
Upon hearing this, Ling Chen’s heart sank. Damn it! It must be Zhu Chuan and his men acting. The dark environment is perfect for these assassins to strike.
After pondering for a while, Ling Chen turned to Zhu Qing beside him, and said, "You go outside with Brother Eight and try to ensure everyone’s safety."
"No way," Zhu Qing shook her head, "I have to protect your safety."
"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine, those people outside need your help, quickly go, don’t waste time."
Under Ling Chen’s urging, although Zhu Qing was somewhat reluctant, she followed Wei Jiahao out.
"Uncle Liu, fire suppression, help me buy some time."
"Alright." Liu Dongsheng responded, and immediately ryed themand. At once, over twenty youths set up guns, aimed at the opposite defensive line, and bullets crazily fired over.
Taking advantage of this moment, Ling Chen swiftly crossed the cover, moving like the wind, charging towards the enemy’s defensive line. It seemed someone discovered Ling Chen’s position, and quickly stood up, aiming the gun at Ling Chen’s body.
However, before they could pull the trigger, only a ’swish’ was heard, and an arrow mercilessly pierced through the person’s throat.
An invaluable opportunity, Ling Chen lightly tapped his toes, his body leaping high, instantly flying over the defensive line.
Not waiting for his feet tond, Ling Chen twisted his body mid-air, forcefully changing direction, and then drew out two pistols from his waist.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In the blink of an eye, both pistol magazines were emptied, and over ten Skyhawk Pavilion assassins hiding behind the line fell to the ground, all shot in the forehead, killed instantly.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Hong, who had been cowering behind the line, changed his expression and hurried to retreat.
Damn it! Ling Chen cursed silently, that guy’s luck is really good, if not for the empty magazine, Zhu Hong wouldn’t have survived.
At this moment, dozens of assassins charged up to support Zhu Hong, Ling Chen let out a loud shout, immediately unleashing the Nine Yang Qiankun Step, rushing straight towards those assassins.
Seeing Ling Chen breaking into the enemy’s camp, Tong Zhentian immediately led others to support. The addition of a group of masters made the situation overwhelmingly one-sided. Facing everyone’s fierce onught, the killers from Skyhawk Pavilion were utterly powerless to resist. In a short while, the ground was littered with dozens of corpses.
"Master, it’s bad, they’ve broken in," Zhu Hong pushed open the room door and urgently shouted at Zhu Chuan inside.
"I know." Zhu Chuan was sitting in front of theputer, watching the screen’s disy, his face grim, "Have everyone enter the tunnels. If they can’t block them, then we have no choice but to fight to the death." After speaking, Zhu Chuan stood up and said, "You stay here, monitor the situation outside, and report to me promptly."
"Yes." Zhu Hong slightly rxed, he thought Zhu Chuan would send him to the battlefield. Given his current strength, going would be a death sentence, it was safer to stay here.
After Zhu Chuan left, Zhu Hong locked the room door, sat alone in front of theputer, and activated all signals. Instantly, theputer screen disyed over a hundred red dots.
Each assassin within Skyhawk Pavilion had a microchip embedded, precisely locating their positions. If killed, the microchip would be ineffective, and the signal would disappear from the screen. With this feature, one could ascertain their personnel situation.
Staring at the dense lines on the screen, Zhu Hong felt a bit sentimental. He had to admire those from Skyhawk Pavilion who had dug hundreds of tunnels beneath the base. The purpose of these tunnels was simple, to deal with enemies invading the base. Utilizing these tunnels, they couldunch stealth attacks and disappear without a trace.
Two minutes had passed, over twenty red dots on the screen had disappeared, nearly every minute saw a reduction. At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before the Skyhawk Pavilion assassins were wiped out.
Such a pity, if only all personnel could be summoned back. Zhu Hong thought to himself.
Skyhawk Pavilion trained more assassins than this, he had asked Zhu Chuan before, ording to Zhu Chuan, the total number of Skyhawk Pavilion assassins was nearly a thousand, most were carrying out missions outside, only one-third remained at the base.
If all assassins returned to the base, Ling Chen would never have seeded.
Thinking of this, Zhu Hong felt very unwilling; he thought he had found a big tree to lean on, but ended up being ruined by Ling Chen.
Bastard! Zhu Hong gritted his teeth, eyes full of hatred. Ending up in this state was all thanks to Ling Chen. If this hatred wasn’t avenged, he wouldn’t sleep well ever in his life.
While contemting, Zhu Hong tapped on the keyboard, seizing the chance to check the Skyhawk Pavilion’s secret information. This was the base’s mainputer, Zhu Chuan had already authorized ess through fingerprint; all material could be reviewed.
Suddenly, Zhu Hong seemed to discover something, his eyes glued to the screen.
