Chapter 1898 Super a.s.sa.s.sins Appeared
Huo Jinfeng naturally caught the anxiety in Shangguan Tong"s words. He simply held her hand tightly. It was uncertain if he had done this to comfort Shangguan Tong or himself. "Don"t worry. Since you managed to get in touch with Yaoyao, it means she"s fine for now, right?"
Shangguan Tong looked up at the man beside her. She inhaled deeply to calm herself down. "Come on."
"Uh huh."
Huo Jinfeng did not continue probing. The two of them quickly walked up to the off-road car parked off the tarmac.
Before they were able to get into the car, a frightening bullet fired from a silencer gun suddenly shot at them. Huo Jinfeng was very sensitive to danger. He hastily pushed Shangguan Tong aside as he evaded the bullet.
In a split second, a clang could be heard. A slight dent could already be seen on the bulletproof door.
The moment his subordinates saw this, they instinctively drew their weapons swiftly and surrounded Master Jinfeng and Shangguan Tong to keep them safe. They cautiously pointed their weapons in the direction of the gunfire.
In the night, over ten men dressed in black slowly came into sight. Even though the man at the lead was not carrying any weapons, his threatening aura could not be missed.
Huo Jinfeng narrowed his eyes. His face looked characteristically calm. His expression was completely unaffected by the sudden appearance of these unknown men.
Shangguan Tong"s eyes constricted the moment she saw the logo on their sleeves. She said softly, "They are super a.s.sa.s.sins created by Mirage Base."
Huo Jinfeng had never crossed paths with super a.s.sa.s.sins before, but he knew about them.
Their bodies had undergone medical DNA alteration. They were faster and stronger than normal a.s.sa.s.sins. Also, their rate of self-recovery was so fast that they could compare to superheroes in Sci-Fi movies. Their abilities were beyond terrifying.
A single super a.s.sa.s.sin could fight ten normal ones. No fighter would dare to oppose them head-on. This was the reason that no one dared to offend Mirage Base.
They unexpectedly showed up here tonight.
Also, there were ten of them.
They had returned to the country in quite a hurry. Even though they came armed with good fighters, they had little chance of winning these super a.s.sa.s.sins.
Huo Changfeng held his gun tightly. All these years, it was the first he had encountered people with such formidable auras.
At this moment, the male super a.s.sa.s.sin at the lead had already approached. He stopped roughly two meters away. He looked past the Huo family"s team and looked straight at Shangguan Tong.
His lips curved upwards. The man spoke expressionlessly. "Long time no see, Clan Leader."
The moment Shangguan Tong heard those words, she hastily looked up and saw an unfamiliar face. However, only one person knew of her ident.i.ty.
"Shangguan Hou." Shangguan Tong accurately called out a name. At the same time, her eyes turned incredibly cold. There was also something else in her eyes as complicated emotions. .h.i.t her, but it was too dark, so no one detected anything.
The man was unsurprised that she would see through his disguise. Instead, he spoke mockingly, "I"m touched you remember me."
Shangguan Hou paused briefly and veered his head a little nonchalantly. The super a.s.sa.s.sins behind caught the cue and promptly raised their weapons in unison, aiming them at their opponents" temples.
"Sadly, you"ll forget everything soon enough." Shangguan Hou sighed softly and spoke in a sad tone.
