Chapter 531: Chapter 495: Twin Peaks

When Wu Power rampaged across the hillside, Xing Jun was slaughtering down in the buildings below.

The two didn’t join forces to break through in one direction, but chose to split up because there were several formidable snipers on the slope. If they weren’t taken care of, it would be a substantial trouble, so the two decided that Wu Power would deal with the snipers while Xing Jun continued to advance forward.

Crash!

Xing Jun smashed through a window, rolling into a house.

Before he could stand up, a shadow rushed into the room, gun raised, with flames spitting from the muzzle, and bullets whisking past the ceiling. The moment the intruder fired, Xing Jun, like a fierce tiger, lunged from the ground.

The gunman’s arm was clamped tightly by Xing Jun, who pushed it fiercely against the wall, followed by a punch to the intruder’s face.

Bang!

The intruder’s body shook and slowly fell down.

Xing Jun sprayed rounds inside the room, his eyes lit up, and he quickly walked towards a computer on the desk.

He started the computer, then pulled out a USB drive from his pocket and plugged it in.

Seconds later, the computer screen turned blue, and characters scrolled rapidly across it.

"How is it?"

Xing Jun, wearing a Bluetooth headset, asked.

Qian Kun’s voice came through the headset, "Wait a moment, the technicians are working on it."

Xing Jun listened to the noises outside while waiting for the results.

The combatants outside were closing in on the house. Five seconds later, with no movement inside and no sign of Xing Jun emerging, a team leader decisively gave the order.

"Rocket!"

Two combatants shouldered the rocket launcher, aiming at the house where Xing Jun was.

Three.

Two.

One.

Just as two rockets were fired, a figure plunged from the window.

Boom!

Fire blazed into the sky, along with a cacophony of gunfire ringing out as bullets targeted where Xing Jun landed.

After hitting the ground, Xing Jun didn’t get up; instead, he pressed down on all fours, propelling himself forward like a wild beast, dodging the incoming bullets.

".... How is it, are you alright?"

Qian Kun’s voice was heard asking through the headset.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

"... I’m fine."

"That’s good, we’ve successfully hacked into their network and will quickly locate Celeon’s position."

"... Great!"

Boom! Boom!

The sound of two more rocket explosions rang out.

...

"Team Three reporting, one has entered Zone C; our team has suffered five casualties..."

"Team Six reporting, one has entered Zone D; our team has suffered four casualties..."

".... Teams Nine and Ten, intercept in Zone C; Teams Two and Four are on their way there; surround the enemy in Zone C!"

"... Team Nine reporting, interception failed, we’ve lost three of our own, the enemy has entered Zone E."

"... Team Twelve reporting, we failed to intercept in Zone D; the enemy has entered Zone G."

...

Inside the room, the communicator continuously transmitted combat reports from the front.

Celeon’s expression fluctuated unpredictably; it had been five minutes since the confirmation of the two’s intrusion. In those five minutes, the gunfire and explosions had hardly ceased, and the intruding duo had never stopped their relentless onslaught.

In Celeon’s view, this was not an evenly matched battle—the adversary only had two people, while he had over three hundred combatants within this manor!

Submachine guns, sniper rifles, grenade launchers, and even rockets... aside from heavy artillery like cannons and tanks, Celeon had equipped his combat team with a comprehensive array of weapons, confident that even a small army would struggle to breach the manor in a short time.

Yet now, merely two individuals were causing unrest in Celeon’s heart, as if two sharp daggers were plunging towards his heart!

"Mr. Celeon, perhaps I should give it a try."

Conni, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke up. His purpose for coming was to discuss a partnership with Celeon, and owing Celeon a favor would be very beneficial for the upcoming negotiations.

Earlier, Conni remained silent because Celeon seemed confident about dealing with the intruders, but now as the situation seemed unfavorable, Conni took the initiative to offer his help.

Hearing this, Celeon hesitated for a moment, not allowing pride to get in the way of refusal, and turned to Conni, "Then I’ll trouble you to do so, I will have my men cooperate with you."

After speaking, he had the butler provide Conni with an internal communication system.

Conni stood up, fitted the earpiece and microphone, nodded to Celeon, and then turned and left.

Two minutes later, new battle reports came through the communicator:

"Conni has entered Zone E."

"All combat personnel in Zone E, follow Mr. Conni’s commands."

"Team Nine, copy that!"

"Team Two, copy that!"

...

"No need."

Conni’s voice suddenly came through the communication channel, exceptionally calm, "All combat personnel, evacuate Zone E and secure the perimeter."

Upon hearing this command, there was a momentary silence over the communicator.

Inside the room, the butler looked at Celeon, "Master?"

Celeon nodded slightly, and the butler took up the communicator, "Do as he says."

"Team Nine, Team Two, evacuate Zone E. Everyone, secure the perimeter."

Moments later, the original commanding voice could be heard.

"Team Nine, copy that!"

"Team Two, copy that!"

Soon, only two people were left in Zone E: Conni and the intruder.

...

With a swoosh, Conni moved stealthily across the junction ahead like a ghost.

He vigilantly scouted his surroundings, slipping into a small building.

Gunshots were still sounding inside the building, from the combat personnel who hadn’t managed to retreat in time, clashing with the intruders.

Conni entered the room, which was in disarray—a body lay amid the chaos, bullet holes marked the walls, and scattered guns lay in the corners of the room.

By the dim light, Conni noticed the body on the floor; the person’s right hand was brutally broken, a conspicuous knife wound on the throat, but there were no other injuries.

His extensive experience allowed Conni to reconstruct the battle scene with just a glance: The gun had been thrown aside, which meant the person had been holding it before death. Judging from the evidence at the scene, the person must have been shot at while firing, someone had charged at him for close combat, he attempted to elbow strike the assailant but had his arm broken, and then his throat was slit.

Facing the muzzle and charging at the opponent—this was something Conni could do too, just needing to predict the enemy’s trajectory and dodge in advance. However, breaking an opponent’s arm with brute force in a single strike demanded immense strength, something Conni acknowledged he was unlikely able to achieve.

Of course, even if he didn’t possess the same strength as his opponent, Conni was confident that his agility and skill were sufficient to compensate. Besides, when it came to offensive power, guns were supreme.

He had chosen to confront this situation because he deduced that this must be Wu Power.

Although both Xing Jun and Wu Power were masters of disguise, it was quite easy to distinguish them by body shape. The other, bulkier figure, Conni didn’t know which Hua Country expert they might be; Y Country’s intelligence lacked detailed information on Hua Country’s God-class experts, only knowing that there was more than one.

Conni wasn’t sure if Xing Jun was a God-class, so to be safe, he chose to seek out Wu Power, whom he was more familiar with.

At this moment, the gunfire on the upper floor had ceased, and the entire building abruptly fell silent.

There had been two people shooting upstairs, and it had only been five seconds since he entered.

Five seconds for two people...

A terrifying thought suddenly flashed through Conni’s mind; he previously judged that even a God-class expert would find it difficult to directly storm the manor and kill Celeon.

But what if two God-class experts had come tonight?
