S City Base
Qi Hongshen was busy handling affairs all night, working non-stop until 5 a.m. before he could go to sleep.
He had barely lain down when he heard the guard knocking on the door.
"Commander Qi!"
Suddenly, Qi Hongshen, who had been drowsy, opened his eyes wide. His head was still a little fuzzy, but his body reacted quickly. Before he could ask what was going on, he started to get dressed and put on his shoes and went outside.
He only knew that if they were calling him up at this time, it must be something extremely urgent.
"What happened?"
He was already standing at the door, buttoning up his clothes, asking the guard about the situation.
"The people from the west of the city came back with news that Wei Sanwa and Jin Xin's two groups had gotten into a fight. They also found the people they were looking for, a group of ordinary people of all ages."
Upon hearing this, Qi Hongshen noticeably slowed down his work and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, it wasn't a zombie apocalypse attacking the base...
Although Lu Chen had changed his plans and moved the area he was originally cleaning up in the west of the city to another location.
However, the various factions over there have always been the main focus of the base, and people have already been sent there to monitor them.
Qi Hongshen lifted his foot and walked out. "Is he still here?"
He wanted to go and ask the person who delivered the message in person what the specifics were.
The guard followed closely behind, saying, "Yes, resting in the reception room."
"Let's go take a look first."
After Qi Hongshen finished speaking, he added, "Let's keep it from Jiang Yong for now."
The guard responded, "Yes, sir."
He had been following Commander Qi all along, so he knew quite a bit about the ins and outs of the situation. Deputy Base Chief Jiang Yong had some secret dealings with Wei Sanwa.
However, Commander Qi turned a blind eye, saying that it did not involve the base's security and was not a big deal for the time being.
Qi Hongshen was in the reception room. After listening to the messenger's report, he frowned slightly, took a sip of strong tea, and pondered whether he should get involved.
After some time, it was almost dawn.
He went upstairs and stood in the corridor of the high-rise office building. He looked up at the sky and saw that the red glow of dawn was gradually rising, while in the western part of the city, there were still a few wisps of gray smoke rising.
In the end, he made up his mind. Saving people was one thing, but he would deal with those people in the west of the city sooner or later.
With two of the three forces now present, it's the perfect time to close the net.
After making the decision, Qi Hongshen acted swiftly and decisively, assembling his troops. Before long, a series of military vehicles sped off towards the west of the city.
Lu Jin'an, who was leading the Dragon Flame Squad in their early morning training, saw their large entourage and, after asking a few questions, led his team to follow them.
"Captain, Commander Qi has brought so many men, we shouldn't be needed, right?"
On the vehicle, a team member who was busy putting on his equipment asked in confusion.
They were originally wearing training uniforms and doing regular training, but the captain made a last-minute decision, so everyone started putting on their gear after getting into the car.
Once that team member started talking, the other active members joined in.
"Besides, Commander Qi didn't call us. Would it be inappropriate for us to go with him like this?"
After all, they didn't belong to this military region, and their presence here was only temporary; they hadn't received any orders, so it wasn't appropriate for them to get involved in these matters.
Lu Jin'an was already dressed in his combat gear, sitting upright with his back straight. He unfastened the Velcro on his black fingerless gloves and readjusted the tightness.
"We were just doing morning training; it had nothing to do with their mission."
The team members immediately understood and nodded in agreement.
"Oh, right, we just happened to be there too."
Lu Jin'an stared out the car window, saying nothing more.
According to the intelligence he had gathered, Wei Sanwa's group included a woman nicknamed "Female Demon," whose supernatural ability level was probably no lower than level two.
Among Qi Hongshen's people, the highest level of superhuman is only level two. The difference between superhumans of one level is not small.
Anyway, there's nothing much going on right now, but just in case, I'll go check it out.
In addition, he didn't encounter any powerful individuals with superpowers around him, which was a good opportunity to hone his own abilities.
On the other side, after warning Qiao Ruoyun, Wei Sanwa started walking in that direction.
Qiao Ruoyun was considering whether she could just take action and cause more chaos if necessary. In any case, she now had some power and didn't want to continue cooperating with Wei Sanwa.
This is also a good time to turn against each other.
As she was contemplating whether to take action, military personnel surrounded her.
Jin Xin had called over everyone from the perimeter beforehand, and when the fight broke out, everyone was mobilized, leaving no one outside.
Needless to say, Wei Sanwa was single-mindedly focused on revenge. He brought all his men and wasn't afraid of anyone causing him trouble. But he didn't expect that the people from the base would interfere at this time.
By the time the superhumans here sensed someone's arrival, it was too late; they had already been surrounded and trapped.
"Brother Xin, what do we do?"
Jin Ya's legs trembled as he desperately wanted Jin Xin to give him a solution.
Thinking about the laws before the apocalypse, these people all had lives on their hands. If they were caught by the base, they would definitely be shot!
Jin Xin never expected that when bad luck strikes, it can be this bad!
First Wei Sanwa, then the people from the base—he's run into all sorts of people!
He took out a cigarette, lit it, and pretended to be calm, but he was actually panicking inside.
But Wei Sanwa didn't make any move, so he couldn't panic, otherwise he would seem too incompetent.
On Wei Sanwa's side, many of his underlings panicked. Some tried to run away, but Wei Sanwa used threats and inducements to keep them in check.
"There's no way to escape. The military is everywhere. How many legs do you have? Can you outrun their iron turtles?"
"Let's see what their attitude is first. If they try to take the initiative, we have plenty of superhumans. Are we really going to back down?"
Wei Sanwa pointed to the five mutated dogs that Qiao Ruoyun had brought.
"We still have these guys; one of them is worth two superhumans!"
His subordinates, who had witnessed the abilities of the mutated dogs, and even the Seventh Sister, whose superpowers were the most formidable, remained calm and composed.
They immediately felt confident and their previous panic subsided.
Jin Xin, on the other side, didn't know much about the mutant dogs, but he did know some information and stared at them for a while.
He looks a bit big, but is he really that powerful?
Tan Jingrui's side is the most relaxed; with people from the base arriving, their chances of survival may be slim!
Within two minutes, Qi Hongshen and his men surrounded them. He first stepped forward to persuade them, saying that everyone present could defect to the base.
Wei Sanwa sneered, "That sounds nice. Once we're in the base, we'll be the prime example of being used as a warning to others. They'll start by targeting us."
He's like a bloodthirsty fugitive now, only wanting to fight to the death, hoping for a sliver of hope, or even just to take a few more down with him.
Jin Xin remained silent, neither backing down nor starting any trouble.
It was thought that the negotiations would need to continue, but an unexpected scene unfolded.
