<h4>Chapter 548 Brothers-in-cauldrons</h4>
When a steam lotive suddenly came to a stop while traveling at high speed, if the inertia couldn’t be precisely predicted beforehand to adjust for one’s center of gravity, then there would definitely be a huge loss of bnce.
Bnce was one of the most important things for everybatant.
Not to mention a battle between supernatural beings, even if it were just a battle between normal people, abatant who had lost their bnce was as good as a fish on the chopping board.
The Pyro Company members had extremely good physical fitness, and normal supernatural beings could notpare to them. Therefore, at the moment of imbnce, they quickly used their feet to adjust their center of gravity so they would not end up in a particrly sorry state and bump into the shadow clone’s de.
But as long as they were thrown off even a little, they would definitely expose an opening.
The shadow clone zipped past the three of them with the ck saber in hand while the Pyro Company members tried their best to sh at its body. But to their surprise, they discovered that there was no sound at all when their sabers struck the shadow clone’s body. It was as though the three of them were not brandishing swords but pieces of paper instead!
The shadow clone’s ck saber was already closing in towards them. One of the Pyro Company members instinctively raised his arm in hopes of slowing down the ck saber’s attack. However, when the ck saber shed across his arm, it did not feel like it had slowed down at all.
“Such sharpness...” That Pyro Company member was shocked. “It’s you! Just who on earth are you? Why are you always going against our Pyro Company!”
But just as he finished speaking, he lost consciousness.
Ren Xiaosu had already shed with the Pyro Company on more than one asion. The Pyro Company had long known there was someone capable of using a sharp weapon to cut a human in half.
While the storyteller’s incredible tales sounded quite believable sometimes, there were not many swords in reality that were capable of that. Therefore, shing a human in half across the waist was usually due to great strength by the wielder and not because the de was really sharp.
As for the Pyro Company, they had discovered during the recovery of their dead that the skeletal structures were cleanly cut across at the waist. This was all down to the might of the saber itself!
When the three Pyro Company members died, Ren Xiaosu gave a wave of his hand and the steam lotive disappeared with a poof. He stuffed all 13 boxes of theboratory data into his storage space and left before the Zhou Consortium’s troops could arrive at Liberation Park.
Furthermore, Ren Xiaosu took the corpses of the three Pyro Company members away with him.
The other party had recognized who he was just now. Although they still had not figured out his identity, if the Pyro Company found their corpses, they would surely know it was not Wang Congyang’s doing.
That wouldn’t do. He had to me him entirely!
Not long after Ren Xiaosu left, the six members of the Pyro Company who were in charge of taking out the patrol team also fled. They still did not know what happened over here and thought the mission was a sess.
When they returned to the safe house, they contacted their headquarters and reported the situation on their side. In the end, the P3mander who oversaw the operation told them the steam lotive did not leave the stronghold at all. In fact, it did not even leave the park.
Only then did the Pyro Company realize that something had happened! It had all gone wrong!
Themander on the other end of the satellite call asked coldly, “The superhuman responsible for escorting them is called Wang Congyang, right?”
The six members of the Pyro Company answered in panic, “Yes, it’s Wang Congyang. His power allows him to conjure a steam lotive. We all saw him do so with our own eyes.”
“OK, I’ll send out an internal memo for his arrest.” Themander hung up. Then he said to the person next to him, “The deposit of one million yuan has already been paid. Follow up and investigate the recipient’s ount.”
...
At this moment, the girl with the canine teeth who was in the residence stared at the screen in front of her. She was stunned because a deposit of one million yuan suddenly appeared in one of the ounts on the surveince monitors.
Strange, wasn’t this one of their Anjing House’s anonymous ounts that they were monitoring? The ount holder did not ept any new missions, so where did the moneye from?
She made a call to find out the source of the funds. But upon checking, she realized the one million yuan was paid out from the Pyro Company’s ount.
What the hell? Didn’t this ount holder kill a lot of people from the Pyro Company previously? Why did the Pyro Company send him the money then? To thank him for not killing the rest of them?
This was way too strange! She had to tell the boss about it quickly.
As for the Pyro Company, they were also checking on the ount details. It was really easy to obtain information on these consortiums’ bank ounts.
Of course, the Anjing House was different from the Pyro Company. The Pyro Company was an organization on the level of a consortium. Therefore, their ount number was always public. The girl with the canine teeth was able to find out about this with a simple check.
Meanwhile, Anjing House’s ounts were all secret ounts. When the Pyro Company searched for the ount, they could not determine who it was registered to.
However, looking at the transaction records of the ount, on the night of the cave-in at East Lake, someone had transferred 300,000 yuan into the ount. This was obviously the reward paid out by the Anjing House to a hitman for killing a member of Midnight.
So the Pyro Company linked it to the Anjing House.
When the P3mander reported this matter to the higher-ups of the Pyro Company, they were extremely angered. This was because if Wang Congyang were really a member of the Anjing House, then the Pyro Company would have lost in their conflict with them this time!
It didn’t matter how many of their members died. Theboratory data was what mattered most of all!
If Wang Congyang were really from the Anjing House, then it was equivalent to him scamming theboratory data out of their hands. The higher-ups of the Pyro Company felt like their intelligence had been utterly insulted!
...
Wang Congyang was in the wilderness outside of Stronghold 73 at the moment. When he realized he was being followed, he immediately gave up on the mission and fled.
For someone like him, what could be more important than his life?
But as he walked on, Wang Congyang felt that something was amiss. He suddenly raised his hand in the isted wilderness, and a huge ck cauldron appeared out of thin air.
Wang Congyang was dumbstruck. What the fuck was this! Wait, a ck cauldron? Why did he feel like he had seen this before?
Since Wang Congyang and Xu Xianchu were former brothers-in-arms, he was also quite concerned about Xu Xianchu’s news.
Wang Congyang knew Xu Xianchu had a simr ck cauldron. Reportedly, the ck cauldron was extremely powerful and could be used as a shield against bullets and attack people too.
But why did he also have a ck cauldron? Even though he had heard before that some supernatural beings could have two powers, this was ridiculous!
Besides, for Xu Xianchu and him to each have a ck cauldron, what the hell was that about? Wouldn’t that make them brothers-in-cauldrons?
Unlike Xu Xianchu, who happily epted the ck cauldron, Wang Congyang felt that there had to be something fishy. The appearance of this ck cauldron was definitely not because he had awakened a new power but due to some external factor!
However, he couldn’t figure out what that external factor was.
At the same time, the Zhou Consortium troops had started sealing off Liberation Park. Then a supernatural being followed the troops into the park.
Themander of the Zhou Consortium troops said politely to the supernatural being, “Mr. Li, you may begin now.”
The person called Mr. Li was a middle-aged man who did not really look too impressive. However, he was a rather spirited man.
He raised his hand and waved it to produce a white mist. Gradually, the white mist started disying some weird images at the pit dug by the Pyro Company. Through the images, it showed the Pyro Company members discussing something with “Wang Congyang,” and a steam lotive was even parked next to them.
