Bang! The militant had not even finished a magazine of ammunition before a bullet found its way into his head. His body crumpled lifelessly to the ground.
Upon seeing this, the morale and courage of the militants took an even further dive, and everyone’s faces were filled with fear. Not a single one of them wanted to die.
“The 3 seconds are up! Those who have not released their weapons yet, die!” Yue Zhong’s ice-cold voice resounded throughout the area, as though it was hammering into the hearts of the militants.
With a ‘bang’, yet another militant who was still wielding his weapon received a bullet through his brains, falling lifelessly to the ground.
Watching another comrade die before them, the militants had faces filled with fear and they immediately threw their weapons to the ground.
Xiong Zheng saw his subordinates surrendering their weapons and he lightly sighed, before doing the same with his .79 Assault Rifle. At death’s door, it was something even trained soldiers would do and choose over honour. They were not bandits after all- facing the threat of death, surrendering was a normal course of action.
Most of the militants had thrown their guns down, but there were still 2 remaining militants who lay prone on the ground, using their comrades as a cover and awaiting Yue Zhong’s appearance. The moment he showed up, they would immediately make a move to kill him. However, they never expected that Yue Zhong had already grasped each and every militant’s location clearly.
Seeing that the 2 crafty militants still held the notion of retaliating, Yue Zhong fired 2 shots that directly penetrated their skulls.
After the 2 militants were picked off by Yue Zhong, Xiong Zheng’s backup plans were entirely quelled.
In the darkness, Yue Zhong coldly ordered, “All of you get out of the cover. Walk to the bus and squat down with your hands above your heads. Those who don’t comply will be dealt with immediately.”
After all, Yue Zhong was acting on his own: if he were to reveal himself and get ambushed, he would have to worry about the militants making use of the opportunity to escape one by one. At that time, it would be very troublesome to deal with them. If he could gather them together and keep an eye on them, if they did want to escape, then it would be much easier to take care of them.
One by one, the militants walked out from the cover, towards the direction Yue Zhong had indicated.
All of a sudden, one of the militants made a break for it, wanting to use the cover of the night to escape.
With a ‘bang’, the militant did not even make it past a few steps before receiving a bullet through his brain, becoming a corpse collapsed on the ground.
Witnessing this, the fear of Yue Zhong only grew even more in the militants’ hearts as they made their way to the bus and squatted down with their hands above their heads; no one else made a further attempt to disrupt anything.
In fact, Yue Zhong was only by himself- if the militants all started running in different directions, he could at most kill 7 or 8 of them, and he wouldn’t be able to give chase. However, under the power of fear, the militants could only comply with his orders and they didn’t try to escape.
“Liu Erhei, come out! Tie them all up!” Yue Zhong ordered in a deep voice.
“Yes! Boss Yue!” Liu Erhei, who wasn’t far away, answered immediately. He pushed the other 3 captives to join the rest in front of the bus then pulled out the ropes, proceeding to tie up the militants tightly.
Yue Zhong then came out from the dark and called out towards the policemen hiding behind the cover, “Wang Jian, the rest of you come out as well!”
Even if the 5 of them harbored any intent to make a move against Yue Zhong, he was confident of dealing with them in the dark of the night, which was why he emerged from the darkness.
Wang Jian heard Yue Zhong’s voice and hesitated for a moment, exchanging glances with his colleagues. Only then did they step out from behind the cover. With the earlier display of Yue Zhong’s strength, if he wanted them dead, they would have died already.
Yue Zhong took a look at the 5 policemen, before pointing to the captives and ordering, “Watch them, I will go deal with the rest!”
With that, Yue Zhong immediately retreated into the darkness. In the night, Wang Jian’s team had neither any special abilities nor sufficient strength, so he would rather have them keep watch.
One of the policemen took a look at Wang Jian, before saying, “Old Wang, what do we do? Are we going to just stay here and wait for him?”
Among these 5 policemen, Wang Jian was the quickest and at the same time, he was a Level 13 Enhancer, thus the small team all treated him as the leader.
Wang Jian gritted his teeth as he said, “We shall wait!”
