Chapter 450: Hidden Person

The first person to move was Onishi .

Scout players had a series of assassination skills . After learning a few skills from the skill series, a player could inflict a frightening amount of bonus damage on the intended target with the first attack .

The bonus damage could even make a Scout player’s melee damage output in that short period comparable to a Light Armor Warrior .

One more important factor was that, in an environment like this where smoke from the smoke bomb completely filled the area, Onishi’s S-grade talent was definitely going to display all its glory and might in today’s battle .

“Cough…”

The Scout player was in shock and was panicking as his throat, along with his artery and trachea, were sliced by the black dagger directly . He could only let out a cough with his remaining strength before his voice was blocked off by the gushing blood .

The Scout player, who mainly focused on his attack equipment, no longer had the strength to fight back after entering the Heavy Injury status inflicted by the cut which brought this HP below the five percent line .

During his last moments, he used his tactical eyewear and talent bonus to view clearly the face of the person who killed him . His only thought was, “This Scout’s face seems rather familiar . Where did I see this face before?”

“Bang!”

“-5799!”

“Bang!”

“-3858!”

At the entrance shrouded by smoke from the smoke bomb, gunshots, death, cries of surprise and pain, as well as the white light of death filled the room .

Feng Luo, Onishi, and Aida were like tigers that had entered a herd of sheep . They continuously killed players from the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group . The Special Agent eyewear they wore on their eyes provided them the ability to discern things from one another to a certain degree, even within the smoke-filled area .

The players from Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group had their vision impeded by the advanced level smoke bomb, especially produced by special agents . The wails and shouts of the players, as well as the disorderly counter attacks that were dished out in panic were all that could be heard .

In that situation, even though the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group had a numerical advantage, they did not threaten Feng Luo’s group in any way .

Among the three of them, two had awakened the Force while the other remaining one was an incredibly powerful NPC with abilities that far surpassed players .

As for the last remaining one, Onishi, he was also among the best players . Whether it was his gears or his skills, he was definitely capable of crushing these elite players who had decent items and equipment .

In a sealed-off environment like this, the smoke bomb was something that was difficult to deal with . An experienced party would probably have Wind Manipulators activate their skills and blow away the smoke, or have their Water Manipulators use water skills to wash away the smoke .

The problem with that plan is Wind Manipulators were not suited for indoor battles like this . Among the dozens of Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group players who rushed back to the secret base, none of them was a Wind Manipulator .

The advanced level smoke bomb produced by the special agent department was something that even storms could not immediately blow away .

From the moment the three special grenades and bombs were thrown out, the result of the battle had already been decided .

The battle continued for only a little over 20 seconds . When the smoke started to disperse and the effects began to ease a little, all of the backup players sent by the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group had already died .

On the ground, multiple glowing weapons and armor were dropped on the ground .

Among the items dropped, the Light Armor Warrior who acted as the commander dropped three decent Rare Grade gears .

However, Feng Luo’s focus was not on the dropped gears, instead focusing on the Light Armor Warrior’s body lying at the corner of the room .

He paid attention to the Light Armor Warrior not because of his dropped gears; rather, it was that the way he died seemed a bit too peculiar .

When the battle started, Feng Luo first sniped and took out the most threatening Machine Gunner while Aida killed a Manipulator who was just one second from releasing his ultimate skill, and Onishi killed that Scout player .

After Feng Luo killed the Machine Gunner and prepared to kill the Light Armor Warrior who acted as the commander, what awaited him was the body of the Light Armor Warrior already on the ground, wearing a full set of Rare Grade equipment with more than 10,000 HP, was already dead . On his body were two wounds that seemed to have been left from a sharp weapon .

The two wounds were clearly not from Onishi’s dagger . It was also not from Feng Luo’s military knife . With Feng Luo’s observation skills, he knew that the wounds were created by a military stiletto .

Wounds from stilettos?

After noticing that, Feng Luo quickly shifted his gaze .

Within his vision, apart from the four of them, there was no one else around .

Phoenix, who was carrying little Sulli not far away and was moving towards the wall within the smoke, seemed to have changed her movement speed slightly .

…

“Chairman Rui, relax! As long as all the conditions that we’ve discussed become reality, we will definitely achieve victory and in one fell swoop, become the largest guild in the rebel army camp, possibly within the entire game . This is also the method where you will have the highest rate of return to your investment . ” In a temporary meeting room inside the headquarters of Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group, Roaring Dragon Light Wind explained to a middle-aged man seated on the VIP seat in front of him .

“Light Wind, I know I can trust your ability . Yes, someone is already doing that as we speak . I hope our cooperation in the future will be fruitful and joyous…” said the middle-aged man in a prideful tone, showing that he was at a higher position .

As the two men spoke, Roaring Dragon Light Wind’s communicator suddenly rang and an anxious voice shouted, “Guild leader!”

Roaring Dragon Light Wind’s eyes sunk; however, his expression did not change in the slightest as he answered, “Yes?”

“Uhm… Our secret base was infiltrated by someone, and the little NPC girl is now in the hands of the four players who infiltrated the base . Also, they also killed the…”

“…”

Roaring Dragon Light Wind subconsciously tightened his fist . He then relaxed his grip without changing his facial expression at all .

“Guild Leader, the four players might be hired by the Veterans Tribe . Among them, we suspect that the Sniper is the one who messed up our Tyrant mission earlier . There’s also a female player who uses two revolvers, she’s insanely strong . More importantly, one of them is a Scout, and we suspect that he is the one called Onishi, one of the superstar player who is ranked among the top 25 . ”

“…”

Roaring Dragon Light Wind listened but did not speak . This time, he could not help but twitch a little .

Clearly, Onishi’s name, as compared to the other two with vague and unidentifiable information, seemed a lot heavier and more important .

After all, a person’s name is like a tree’s shadow .

…

“Light Wind, what’s wrong? Will this affect the battle to defend the city?” When Roaring Dragon Light Wind was connected to his communicator, the middle-aged man did not speak . Only after Roaring Dragon Light Wind hung up that he frowned a little and asked .

“Chairman Rui, relax . It is just a little bit of a setback from an insignificant mission . A few experts from other cities killed a few of our players . But there are only four of them . It won’t affect our plans at all . ” Roaring Dragon Light Wind had a cold expression and his words seemed a little reserved .

“Then, you should get it settled as soon as possible . You should know better than anyone that if something big were to happen now, it will affect the asking price of those financial groups and guilds . ” The middle-aged man glanced at Roaring Dragon Light Wind and did not speak anymore, and his projected body disappeared from the meeting room .

“Sniper! Sniper again! As expected, something went wrong!” Roaring Dragon Light Wind pushed a porcelain vase on the table to the ground .

The porcelain vase fell on the thick fur carpet and did not break . Roaring Dragon Light Wind held his fists tightly and closed his eyes for a few seconds . After that, his bloodshot eyes reopened . He took out a specially-made communications device and connected it to someone .

A three-dimensional projection of Wesker, wearing his ever-present shades, appeared .

“Mr . Wesker . There’s a problem… I did not know that someone would actually take advantage of the situation and create problems . With regards to the death of Mr . Rhodes, I’m truly sorry . I’ve used thousands of people to look for him but he has still managed to escape . I did not expect him to reappear right now . His target is actually the little girl that you want… He also has three other helpers who are incredibly strong as well . You know, the base has one of your underlings and General Gordon’s underlings defending it, but the little girl was still brought away by the lot of them… More than a hundred of my men have died . But the target has not yet left the base . My men are currently doing their best to stop them… You know that there are too many adventurers affiliated to the Federation camp inside Silvermoon City right now . These adventurers are helping the Federation attack my men . And uncontrolled infected beings will also attack my people after seeing blood . I hope that I can have some backup . Mr . Rhodes’ control instrument is still with me… Thank you, Mr . Wesker… Yes, I will definitely keep the little girl within Silvermoon City, even if all that’s left is a corpse . ”

After over a dozen seconds, Roaring Dragon Light Wind, who had just hung up the phone, had a light-hearted yet cold laugh .

“This situation can definitely be considered a blessing in disguise . ”
