Chapter 20 Eradicating the Gang
"Sister Saifeier, you're so strong!"
Luo Lin immediately gave Cipher a big hug.
Cipher, still immersed in the thrill of the moment, didn't try to avoid the hug.
"Alright, let's get down to business first."
Cipher, who was gradually developing a resistance to Luo Lin's hugs, gently pushed her away, then pointed at the warehouse door and said.
"Okay! Sister Saifeier, leave the rest to us!"
Saying that, she pulled out her pistol and aimed it at the warehouse door.
"Big Xiong, prepare to breach the door!"
"Alright!"
After Luo Lin gave the command, Cipher saw Xiong Lei's body visibly swell, stretching his clothes tight.
Then Xiong Lei took a deep breath, his gaze cold as he stared at the warehouse door.
"Hoo-ah!"
With a loud roar, Xiong Lei raised his right fist and smashed it fiercely into the lock of the warehouse door.
"Boom!"
A huge sound erupted, and the warehouse door, like a fragile biscuit, was directly punched through, leaving a fist-sized hole.
Then Xiong Lei abruptly lifted his leg and kicked the door with force.
Because the lock had already been smashed by Xiong Lei's punch, accompanied by clouds of dust, this kick completely blew the door open.
Inside the door, six people looked on in astonishment towards the entrance.
The moment she saw these six people, Luo Lin raised her gun at them, and a faint blue light began to emanate from her eyes.
"Bang! Bang!"
Following two gunshots, blood holes appeared simultaneously on the foreheads of two of the six people.
As for why she only fired two shots, it was because by the time she fired the second shot, the group had scattered and taken cover.
"Two eliminated, three are hiding behind the sofa on the left, and one is behind the boxes on the right."
"The boxes might be the trade items, Big Xiong! Get those three out first! I'll cover the person behind the boxes."
Luo Lin's speech was extremely fast; she made her assessment and gave commands within two seconds.
"Alright!"
Upon receiving the order, Big Xiong immediately dropped his defensive stance and rushed rapidly towards the sofa.
The three hiding behind the sofa also heard Luo Lin's command at this moment, hastily pulled out their pistols, and peeked out.
They then saw a burly man with a fierce expression charging towards them.
"Bang bang bang bang bang!"
The three of them fired their pistols at Xiong Lei, hoping to kill him.
But Xiong Lei faced the incoming bullets with not a ripple in his emotions.
He raised his left hand, blocking his face with his metal gauntlet.
The bullets failed to penetrate his metal gauntlet, merely ricocheting off with a crisp "ding," leaving not even a trace on the gauntlet.
Bullets struck his bulletproof vest but only embedded themselves, failing to successfully penetrate.
Bullets struck his unprotected arm, but only tore a hole in his clothing before being deflected by his incredibly dense muscles, which were activated by his ability, leaving only a black scorch mark.
Thus, under the desperate gaze of the three, no matter how much they shot, they couldn't inflict useful damage on Xiong Lei.
Until Xiong Lei reached the three, swung his right fist, and punched one of them in the chest.
Then that unlucky fellow was sent flying directly, smashing hard against the warehouse wall.
The other two saw this and tried to scramble away, but Xiong Lei wouldn't give them the chance.
He bent down, embraced the sofa, lifted it, then exerted force from his waist, directly flinging the sofa towards the two.
The sofa, carrying immense kinetic energy, accurately struck the two fleeing individuals, who then collapsed and fell asleep.
Having done all this, Xiong Lei turned around and looked at Luo Lin, who was still in a standoff, and said:
"Captain, all three have been subdued."
"Very good." Luo Lin didn't even turn her head. "Help me pull out the person hiding behind these boxes. Be gentler this time, don't damage the boxes."
"Okay..."
"No need for such trouble."
Before Xiong Lei could respond, a playful voice came from above Luo Lin's head.
Luo Lin subconsciously glanced upwards out of the corner of her eye and saw Cipher, who had somehow stealthily made her way above the boxes through the first-floor ceiling.
Cipher released her hands and dropped directly from the ceiling behind the boxes.
She looked at the gang member leaning against the boxes, his face filled with terror as he stared at her, and offered a slight smile, then raised her right hand and gently flicked his forehead.
And so, this gang member, who had just raised his gun to shoot Cipher, fell into a sweet slumber, just like his colleagues.
"[Assisted Spark Team in taking down/eliminating Fierce Tiger Gang and Vortex Gang members, stellar jade +800]"
"Hmm? It actually gave five draws at once. Why is it suddenly so generous?"
Looking at the subtitles that suddenly appeared before her, Cipher murmured in surprise.
"Generous? Sister Saifeier, what's wrong?"
Luo Lin, who had just holstered her gun and walked over, heard Cipher's mumbling. Although she didn't hear it clearly, she still asked with some confusion.
Cipher snapped out of it and shook her head.
"Oh, nothing, just talking to myself."
However, she looked at the messy scene and fell into deep thought again.
Where did that person named "Brother Tan" go? According to last night's conversation, shouldn't he have arrived at our designated location by now?
But why, whether I observed in the alley before, or specifically went to the rooftop to observe, or even after all the gang members were cleared out, did this person named "Brother Tan" never appear?
Could it be that he's not coming?
Cipher frowned, temporarily unable to figure out why.
But soon, her brows relaxed.
Oh well, why think so much? If trouble comes, deal with it as it comes.
Let's see what they were trading first!
Thinking this, Cipher's gaze fell upon the large box in front of her.
"Luo Lin, what do you think... is inside this box?"
Looking at the box, Cipher licked her lips, her hands itching, finding it hard to suppress the desire to open the box.
"I don't know... But it looks so big, it should be some kind of medium-sized machinery, right?"
Luo Lin gestured with her hand to compare the height of the box, looking at this box that was almost taller than her, and fell into contemplation.
"Forget it, we'll know if we open it."
Seeing that Luo Lin didn't have a definite answer, Cipher stepped forward and began to look for the box's opening mechanism.
