Chapter 961: Chapter 792: Arrangement_3
Lady Gao’s words slightly stunned Tao Yu, but he didn’t ask for reasons, simply nodding in reply and saying,
Seeing that Tao Yu didn’t ask further questions, just calmly accepting the assignment, Lady Gao appeared quite satisfied.
It was precisely this commendable ninja discipline that enabled him to be entrusted with such an important task and appreciation. His ninja way surpassed that of most members of the Hand-to-hand Combat Association, likely being a descendant of those lost.
Because Lady Gao was placing increasing importance on Tao Yu, and even imparted some techniques for manipulating Qi, she unusually shared more after he had agreed,
“Are you wondering why, despite the factory working through the night, we still fall short on supplies?”
“I do have some doubts, but these are irrelevant to the mission. As a ninja, my only duty is to complete the tasks assigned by the Lady.”
Tao Yu spoke with a calm demeanor.
This only increased Lady Gao’s satisfaction. What I tell you, you may know! But to ask proactively is absolutely forbidden!
“The later mission must be carried out by a new face like you, so you need to be aware of all the antecedents and consequences involved.”
“Please enlighten me, Lady.”
“We have always cooperated with Wilson Fisk, and the Anbrella Company is also one of our employers, so we have taken on some private assignments for Anbrella. What we’ve recently completed isn’t sold locally.”
Lady Gao strolled slowly in front of Tao Yu, then continued,
“Eventually, we will need to send some trustworthy heavy-hitters to support the Anbrella Company. Some of our experts are on record, but you are most suitable.”
“Is it after making contact with the other party in Mexico?”
“Together, yes, the place you need to go to support is New Mexico, where someone will contact you…”
But just at that moment, an urgent report came from outside the door,
“The warehouse is under attack by masked vigilantes! There’s a fire!”
Lady Gao, who was unflappable as Mount Tai, suddenly looked grim after hearing the report from outside.
The vigilante who had been active lately had caused her side much trouble.
Therefore, this time she had specifically set a trap.
One could say that if the vigilante did indeed attack the warehouse, they were going to make him pay a price!
But who could have imagined that this well-arranged trap would still be breached by the attacker?
“What’s the damage? Is the shipment safe? Does the attacker have accomplices?”
Lady Gao’s rapid-fire questions made the reporter outside break into a sweat.
“The warehouse has been blown up, the shipment, the shipment has been burned. The attacker had a very skilled sniper as an accomplice, and those bombs were likely made by this sniper.”
Lady Gao’s aura of control as a Superior instantly shattered.
The plan was originally targeting that masked intruder, but now a new disruptor had emerged.
“Lady, do you need me to lend support?”
Tao Yu pondered internally at this moment, though he offered to help with apparent concern.
“No need, the goods are already destroyed; this incident has nothing to do with you. Go and carry out the new mission. Those two, I will deal with them myself!”
With a bow, Tao Yu retreated and then quickly departed.
After leaving, Tao Yu did not contact Stark Group through the proper channels, but instead made a show of taking out his phone to contact Inuzuka E,
“Hello, Big Dog, how have you been lately?”
With this casual greeting, he naturally let the other end of the line, Inuzuka E, in on the ruse, and then he started to openly exchange Konoha’s coded language, transmitting the information he intended to pass on…
A small and somewhat faulty teleportation portal opened near Tao Yu, revealing Tony on the other side.
He had finally mastered this Teleportation Technique.
“I don’t have much here for you to steal.”
Tao Yu smiled at Tony; in fact, there had been a Space Barrier in place, but Tao Yu had opened a small gap to grant Tony some access.
“Hey hey~, I’ve come with a job.”
Tony’s face bore an excited expression.
“What, planning to make a move on Anbrella?”
Tao Yu raised an eyebrow.
The shock Tony received after the Winter Soldier relayed the details about his father’s encounter made Tony wish to take Anbrella down a notch directly.
It just so happened that he had been learning spells and modifying his Iron Armor, which had slightly tempered his resolve.
The Iron Armor’s current upgrade is aimed at integrating magical elements, seeking to enhance battle capabilities without compromising portability.
Indeed, Anbrella was the undisputed test subject for this boost in combat power.
Now, with such a jubilant visit to announce the news, even without the foresight from the Time Gem, Tao Yu could guess his purpose.
“Not entirely, your friend relayed some information. The Hand-to-hand Combat Association is planning some sort of collaboration with Anbrella, seeming to conjure some movement…”
Tao Yu listened quietly to Tony’s words.
However, upon hearing Tony speak about the fire at New York’s Hand-to-hand Combat Association warehouse and that the shipment was destined for New Mexico,
A series of images suddenly appeared before Tao Yu’s eyes.
New York engulfed in searing flames, hordes of zombies pouring out of Hell’s Kitchen, police cars rushing to the scene only to be overwhelmed by the vast waves of the undead.
The Anbrella Biohazard Response Team as well enters by helicopter…
