These guys made a fatal mistake.
First, they trusted the snipers outside too much.
So they didn't really consider the importance of cover.
And then they got absolutely wrecked.
In one sentence: "You picked the wrong idol!"
Second, they shouldn't have angered An Youyi.
Xu Mo believed the second point was the most crucial.
There were two guys who had already been shot earlier.
They were quickly taken out by An Youyi.
She didn't even need a gun.
Just a few flying knives.
To be honest, Xu Mo wasn't sure where An Youyi pulled those knives from.
But hey, she's awesome, that's all that matters.
The world's top assassin.
Carrying some knives for self-defense is pretty normal.
Only one survivor left: Jin Dongxi.
This fat guy wasn't faring well either.
He had been shot in the left arm.
He dragged Song Ligang off the ground and used him as a shield.
The gun was pressed against Song Ligang's forehead.
"Don't come any closer!!!"
He was genuinely terrified.
Who could have expected that within just a few minutes,
The entire situation had flipped.
The side that was originally in advantage
Had turned into the disadvantaged one.
Especially after An Youyi entered.
She killed them like they were chickens.
Every move was lethal.
She didn't give them any chance to fight back.
Before they could even react,
They were already dead.
"Scared, fat guy?"
Xu Mo's face was still a bit pale, but his voice remained calm.
He casually taunted.
Jin Dongxi dragged Song Ligang to a corner.
Not only did he avoid the snipers outside,
But he also intimidated Xu Mo and An Youyi.
If Xu Mo wasn't a bit far away,
And if there wasn't cover blocking this angle,
Jin Dongxi would have already shot him!
Damn it!
It was all because of that man suddenly barging in.
That's when the situation turned upside down.
Otherwise, would he have lost?
"Scared? I've been in this game for so many years, I don't even know how to write the word 'fear'!"
Jin Dongxi roared in anger.
He had a hostage in his hands.
These guys were definitely here to save Song Ligang.
As long as Song Ligang was with him,
His life was safe.
"Haha... impressive."
Xu Mo laughed and genuinely praised.
If An Youyi had introduced herself,
And mentioned her title as the world's top assassin,
Would this fat guy have peed his pants?
"Friend, tell your subordinates to stop."
"I'll take just one hundred million as my fee, the rest is all yours. How about it?"
Jin Dongxi tried to make a deal.
Escaping safely,
Was unlikely.
The snipers outside had changed.
And there was An Youyi blocking him here.
Jin Dongxi gave up on that idea.
Originally, he had planned to split the money 50-50.
But considering his own life,
Jin Dongxi gritted his teeth and made what he thought was his biggest concession.
He had spent a lot of money on intelligence,
And secretly observed,
Just to get information on the Song siblings.
Wasn't it reasonable to take a fee for his efforts?
But Xu Mo raised an eyebrow, "I came all the way here, and you're only giving me four hundred million?"
Jin Dongxi's face looked like he was constipated.
Four hundred million was still too little?
Should I just give you my life too, huh?
"Young man, don't be too greedy, four hundred million is a lot!"
"Consider this one hundred million as making friends with me, Jin!"
Jin Dongxi thought Xu Mo hadn't ordered his subordinates to attack yet,
Because he was greedy for the money.
The dead Song Ligang was also valuable,
But significantly less so.
"You tell me, is Song Ligang important to me, or is the money important to me? Mr. Kim?"
Xu Mo's voice was teasing.
With all the "damns" and awkward Chinese,
Wasn't this guy from Korea?
Where else could he be from?
Jin Dongxi's face darkened, he tentatively asked,
"Song Ligang is important to you?"
"No! Think again."
"The money is important to you?"
"Not that either."
"Damn it, Song Ligang is important to you!"
"Neither the money nor Song Ligang is important to me. What's important is that you are here."
As Xu Mo spoke,
A sharp sound of air being cut echoed.
The moment An Youyi's voice appeared,
A dagger flew out at an incredible speed.
It hit Jin Dongxi's forehead without a miss!
Jin Dongxi's face still held the anger from before he died.
But his small eyes were wide open.
His gaze was filled with terror.
The moment he saw An Youyi,
It was as if he had seen some prehistoric beast!
The Dragon Empress was super scary.
Sound localization is a great skill.
Xu Mo knew An Youyi's strength.
That's why he had talked so much nonsense with Jin Dongxi.
When sound localization reaches its peak,
Hearing is even better than sight.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the rescue mission, mission rating: S!"
"Reward: Ancient martial arts skill, Golden Bell Shield, and Iron Cloth Shirt at the Perfected Level!"
"Ding, bonus: Congratulations to the host for gaining +5 personal endurance!"
Xu Mo's mouth twitched.
If this keeps up,
Wouldn't he become some kind of perpetual motion machine?
Damn this system!
It's not playing fair!
Angry as he was,
An ancient martial arts skill at the peak level was indeed amazing.
Oh right, what was that guy's name again?
"Youyi, what's the name of that broad-shouldered youth we just rescued?"
Xu Mo casually asked.
"Song Ligang." An Youyi confirmed the danger was over and walked over to Xu Mo, her tone calm.
"Oh, Song Ligang..." Xu Mo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then the next moment his eyes widened.
"Wait, he's Song Ligang?"
Xu Mo had a bad feeling.
His head was buzzing.
He was very familiar with the name Song Ligang.
As everyone knows,
In war god and dragon king stories,
You always encounter a ridiculously strong, loyal brother or cannon fodder who's willing to die for you.
And in this novel's world,
There was indeed such a person.
A cliché setup by the author.
That's why Xu Mo reacted so strongly.
"Does he have a grudge with you? Should I kill him for you?"
An Youyi said calmly.
It was hard to tell her true intentions.
But if Xu Mo nodded,
She would have no hesitation in taking out Song Ligang.
Well, that's it. Goodnight, babe.
