“d.a.m.n it, we were found out,” Han Xuya said in frustration. She was already very careful but she didn’t expect the guards to be so alert.
“Phew, luckily the alarm was spoilt, saving us a ton of ha.s.sle.” Stone felt fortunate. If the alarm rang and alerted the entire base, they would have to stop the entire mission. They couldn’t really start a mutiny, right?
Han Xuya knew that this must be her Boss’s doings. Boss Ling Lan was the one who damaged the alarm system. She secretly wiped the cold sweat off her forehead as she was really frightened just now. She remembered how Qi Long and her other friends always completed her Boss’s mission successfully. She clenched her fist. She was still too inexperienced. Therefore, she must work harder so that they wouldn’t leave her behind. Han Xuya realized her flaws through this mission. In the past, she always complained that her Boss discriminated against women. However, from the looks of it now, their Boss didn’t let her and Luo Chao become team leaders was because they were still lacking.
Although something wrong happened to the alarm, the guards still noticed that something was amiss as a scream in the middle of the day seemed really suspicious. A group of fully armed soldiers with beam guns in their hands rushed out to check the situation.
“Move!” Han Xuya shouted and the logisticians in front of her rolled to the side instinctively.
Han Xuya flew up and waved her hands and a few silver flashes of light were seen. Some of the guards collapsed on the ground. The mecha operators had acted too. They shot out the miniature anesthesia in their hands. Before the guards could even shoot at them, they all fainted on the ground.
Everything happened in a blink of an eye. However, in all that mess, Stone didn’t even have the chance to attack. He turned his head stiffly and looked at Han Xuya in astonishment.
“You…” Stone glanced at the miniature syringe on his b.u.t.t, his face surprisingly could twitch. This was the only word he could force out of his mouth.
Han Xuya looked at him innocently. “I’ve already asked everyone to move but you didn’t. What can I do?”
Stone was angry and frustrated with her answer. ‘Even if I didn’t move, you should still aim accurately. I’ve never seen anyone that shoots their own teammate.’
Han Xuya saw his expression and knew what he was thinking but she just shrugged. “I haven’t mastered the hidden weapon technique yet so I will sometimes miss the target. All the logisticians knew that if I ask them to move, they must move.”
The logisticians that rolled on the floor haggardly to dodge those syringes nodded furiously. They were well-trained by Han Xuya’s aimless flying syringes.
‘Is she saying I’m just unlucky?’ Stone wanted to cry. He couldn’t handle the effects of the anesthesia anymore and fainted.
“We lost one member before we reach our target. What a hard mission.” Han Xuya sighed.
Everyone was speechless. He fell because you accidentally hit him. All the mecha operators that were specially sent by their team leaders looked at Han Xuya with some fear in their eyes. The most frightening thing was not meeting a powerful opponent. It was having a stupid teammate.
Fortunately, the mecha operators didn’t speak out their thoughts. If Han Xuya knew that she was being cla.s.sified as a stupid teammate, she would have thrown some syringes at them too.
Pzzt! Pzzt! Two beams suddenly came from two different directions. The target of the beams were two of the weaker-looking logisticians. Just as the logisticians were about to be hit with the unexpected beams, a beam s.h.i.+eld suddenly appeared behind them. The beams. .h.i.t the beam s.h.i.+eld, dimming the beam s.h.i.+eld a little. After a while, it resumed its initial brightness again. This beam s.h.i.+eld was invented by Chang Xinyuan a few years ago. A few years ago, it was considered Lingtian Battle Clan’s high-cla.s.s weapon. After a few years of experimentation, technology finally became mature as it no longer needed to be activated manually. The beam s.h.i.+eld now could be operated manually and automatically, becoming a piece of necessary equipment for all the people in 250 Mecha Clan. It was the most popular equipment too. No one was willing to take off the beam s.h.i.+eld even when they were resting.
This was because everyone knew that they wouldn’t be able to remain vigilant all the time. When they were relaxed, it increased the chances of them dying by a large amount. It would be much safer for them if they just had the beam s.h.i.+eld on them.
Their carefulness saved their lives this time. The beam s.h.i.+eld played its role and protected the two logisticians.
The instant the two beams appeared, Chen Yifan and another mecha operator who was at the peak stage of Qi-Jin flew towards the direction where the beams came from. They were shot by the last two members of the guards’ team, the leader and deputy leader of the team.
Han Xuya saw that Chen Yifan and the other mecha operator were more powerful than the two guards so she knew they wouldn’t have a problem handling those two. However, to be cautious, she left five people to guard Stone who was unconscious.
After making the arrangements, she asked the rest to move in with her.
Everyone started to look at each other in doubt. The JMCs inside were all females. If they rushed in like this, wouldn’t they frighten the ladies? They were all single. If the ladies misunderstood them and thought that they were perverts, it would be bad. It might even affect their love life in the future.
Han Xuya knew what these men were thinking. She took out a few miniature syringes and said in a sinister tone, “If you don’t go in, I will stab these into your private parts. Either way, you won’t be able to use them in the future anymore.”
All the men tensed up instinctively. Stone, who got fed medicine, started to wake up. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Han Xuya holding the syringes and heard what she said, Stone closed his eyes and fainted again.
Even the two remaining members of the guards’ team tensed up when they heard what Han Xuya said.
Chen Yifan and the mecha operator who was with him were strong-willed so they didn’t get affected by Han Xuya’s words. They made use of this chance and subdued their opponent. After that, they exchanged glances with each other. They realized the surprise in each other’s eyes. As expected, they couldn’t offend the ladies in 250 Mecha Clan.
“Are you all really not going…” Before Han Xuya finished her sentence, the people that woke up from their stupor started rus.h.i.+ng into the office.
