688: Chapter 688 Direct Conflict Eruption 688: Chapter 688 Direct Conflict Eruption Hasson held his head, his face filled with helplessness.
Looking at his disheveled appearance, it was clear that he hadn’t been resting well lately.
The mission has to be completed now.”
“Commander Hasson, I think you should apply to return.
This mission is clearly impossible to complete.
It’s better to take him back with us.”
After all, he’s not just anyone; he’s a Capitalist.”
In their country, capital had to be respected, and the Capitalists represented capital itself.
If they controlled a major Capitalist without reason, even if it benefited the state, other Capitalists would oppose it.
This represented their group’s interests, and they certainly didn’t want to be controlled one day themselves.
“I’m telling you, just leave me alone.
I’m just a worker; I know nothing.”
Xu Mo said helplessly, having truly reached his limit.
But there was no choice due to the contract, he had to endure.
He hadn’t slept for several days, and if this continued, he was sure to collapse.
“Shut up, I can’t stand it anymore,” Hasson cursed at Xu Mo.
Then Hasson continued, “You know, if this were a regular mission, we could fail and go back.
But this one is different.
You’ve seen those ghostly things in the underground factory, my God, what on earth is going on with those things?”
“I’ll say it again, I really don’t know anything, I’m not even allowed to go there myself.”
Of course, Xu Mo knew what was going on; he was aware his master possessed some powers unknown to ordinary people.
If he could, then the contract wouldn’t be a contract anymore.
Thinking about those things, the subordinate was left speechless.
Good Lord, those creatures were just like zombies from the movies.
Seeing them, they almost thought the apocalypse had arrived.
But later, they discovered that these zombies were very obedient and never roamed around aimlessly.
Besides doing their designated tasks, they didn’t bother with anything else and required no supervision.
In fact, the guards were not worried about the zombies escaping but about people getting in.
They even conducted experiments and found that these zombies didn’t bite people.
Even if someone was injured by them, they wouldn’t become infected and turn into the same kind.
However, after reporting this up the chain, the higher-ups took it very seriously.
Then they secretly took a few for research, while the rest remained.
Their mission was to capture Zhao Guang because this was no longer a matter of ordinary things.
With some things previously exposed, they all believed that there were supernatural powers in this world.
Supernatural powers were related to human evolution itself, and it was even possible to become divine.
Thinking about this, no matter which country’s top echelons, they would not be able to resist.
Eventually, all the pressure fell on Hasson.
Zhao Guang, hiding nearby, was speechless upon hearing this.
He hadn’t expected the zombie factory to be exposed in the end.
He thought that placing the factory abroad would facilitate secrecy, but it turned out .
If he had known, he would have placed it somewhere else.
Since it’s been exposed, let it be.
Anyway, he had to reveal even more soon.
With a wave of his hand, a covert power entered Xu Mo’s body.
Xu Mo, whose spirit was on the verge of collapsing, suddenly felt revitalized.
He instantly realized that his master had taken action, and his master had actually come here.
A glint in his eyes, Xu Mo still pretended to be weak as before.
After this period of training, Xu Mo’s acting skills were quite solid, besides, no one would expect someone’s spirit to recover instantly.
Xu Mo had been anxious, but now his mindset had completely changed.
The master had not abandoned him, and since he had come, there was no need for Xu Mo to worry about the rest.
After restoring Xu Mo, Zhao Guang quietly snuck out and headed first to his plantation.
The plantation was now surrounded by barbed wire.
The walls that had been used for theft prevention had all been knocked down.
Zhao Guang was speechless; if secrecy was the aim, weren’t those walls better than the barbed wire?
It was hard to imagine relying on those sentries and the soldiers hidden everywhere.
Then Zhao Guang checked his underground factory, which seemed roughly the same as before.
But Zhao Guang could tell that the guards here were no longer the soldiers who had signed contracts with him.
They might look the part, but could he not feel the absence of the contracts?
Everything seemed calm, but in reality, even more people were hidden here, lurking in the shadows, ready to act at the slightest sign of trouble.
Zhao Guang had initially wanted to stealthily kill them all, but then he thought it didn’t align with his persona.
“Forget it, let’s fight head-on.
These people are nothing to me.”
Following that, Zhao Guang stepped out.
Suddenly, the appearance of this seemingly not-young man immediately drew everyone’s attention because ordinary people couldn’t possibly be here.
“Who are you, and what are you doing here?” a soldier called out loudly.
However, they were very excited, finally seeing someone arriving; anyone who could get here was certainly no ordinary person.
The only pity was that this didn’t seem to be their target, perhaps someone associated with the target.
“You speak Chinese well, too bad your question is wrong.
I should be asking you what you’re doing here.”
“This area is under our control now, please come with us immediately to explain your purpose here.”
They were trying to apprehend him already.
Although they asked him to go with them, the surrounding individuals had already started to approach.
Each one was armed and cautious, obviously considering him a major threat.
Zhao Guang gave a faint smile, “Well then, I’ll tell you.
I’ve been entrusted to come here and eliminate you all.”
“Not good, attack!” The man in front realized something was wrong and immediately ordered an attack.
They knew that Zhao Guang could previously contact people with special abilities.
In an earlier incident, Zhao Guang had enlisted help to deal with some warlords, so it was normal to presume he had done the same this time.
Even though this man wasn’t documented, who could say how many had special abilities?
Bullets rang out around, targeting Zhao Guang’s limbs.
Clearly, they intended to take him alive.
Zhao Guang was ungenerous in response; he deployed an Advanced Magic Shield.
This was an advanced magic, but it was sufficient to deal with ordinary bullets.
