The old man launched his attack the moment he opened his eyes; he was fast, but Miyano was even faster.
A powerful, strong hand passed through the old man's hunting robe, which billowed without wind, and something sharp and cold pierced the old man's heart through Miyano's palm.
The old man subconsciously looked down and saw that a small, curved willow-leaf dagger had completely penetrated his heart.
With a pull and a lift, Miyano covered the old man's mouth with one hand to stop him from crying out, while the other hand vigorously twisted the hilt of the knife. Energy flowed into the tip of the blade, almost instantly shredding the old man's internal organs.
A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of the old man's mouth. As he died, his eyes remained wide open in disbelief, staring intently at Gong Ye's face.
He seemed puzzled as to how someone with his great Onmyoji reflexes could be so helpless against a mere youth.
Miyano remained expressionless, a faint smile playing at the corners of his lips.
The blade was pulled out, drawing a trail of blood. This blood condensed in mid-air, transforming into sharp blades that spun and flew at high speed, directly towards the brow of the dwarf soldier who had just regained his senses.
Two figures collapsed to the ground. Only then did Miyano turn around, his eyes stained with an eerie red—the blood splattered on the old man's face.
From the moment the attack was made until the three men fell, the entire process took no more than five breaths.
He looked up and met Ruan Xianxian's gaze, who had also dealt with three people.
The two withdrew their gazes and then attacked at the same time.
Miyano threw a small knife from her fingertip, hitting a short soldier who was about to press the red alarm button right between the eyebrows.
Ruan Xianxian flung out her silver chain, wrapping it around the neck of a short soldier who was some distance away. As she tightened it, her feet were already strangling the shoulders of another man.
As his body was lifted up, it straightened, and he reached out and snapped the last person's neck.
He spun around and landed, and three corpses behind him collapsed to the ground.
Miyano finished off the last person at the same time. He lifted his foot and walked over helplessly. Before he got close, he saw his fairy throw two corpses out of the space with an innocent look on her face.
His face was full of indulgence. "I forgot, you haven't fully mastered telekinesis yet."
He gestured to the people behind the walls on either side, "Charge in?"
The basement was well soundproofed, and the two of them eliminated their opponents quickly without making too much noise.
The guards inside stood with their backs to the door, so they could silently take the shelves and gold without alerting the guards inside.
The two originally intended to just grab whatever they could and leave.
Since the killing has already been carried out, there is no reason to kill without receiving any reward.
Hmm? Hiring mercenaries or assassins doesn't cost money?
As for whether the sect members are willing to pay to hire two people to kill their dwarf soldiers? That's a joke, who cares!
Now, opening the door will definitely alert the people inside, and they might just press the alarm button.
With an innocent, harmless expression, Ruan Xianxian walked back to the opposite side of the first room, her hand lightly touching the door panel...
A moment later, she threw two more corpses, their eyes wide open and filled with confusion, out of the void once more.
Their eyes met, conveying the same message: Why bother opening doors? Just put them all in the space and kill them, isn't that enough?
Miyano sighed and gave a thumbs-up without hesitation.
Ruan Xianxian followed the same method and successively dealt with the dwarf soldiers in the six secret rooms.
There were twelve bodies in total, plus the old man's thirteen corpses, lined up side by side in the aisle.
When he raised his hand again, a master key appeared at his fingertips.
Whistling as they opened the door, rows of gold came into view, so bright it made their eyes turn blue.
Inside the 100-square-meter basement, rows of shelves were filled with gold bars, six bars per shelf, arranged in a pyramid shape.
The visual impact before my eyes is indescribable.
Don't blame me for being uncultured; all I can say is "Holy crap!" "Oh my god, oh my god, it's all four of my god!"
Wherever it went, rows of shelves disappeared, and when they reappeared, they were lying neatly in the space.
Ruan Xianxian's cheeks flushed with excitement as she stood with her hands on her hips in the empty basement: "Awesome!"
Miyano gave her a meaningful look.
The two headed to the next battlefield.
Upon searching the last secret room, besides the neatly stacked gold, there were also several wooden crates piled up in the corner.
Open any box and you'll find gems, jewelry, and all sorts of sparkling things.
When I came out, I was hanging on Miyano's back. I was just a little weak in the legs.
It wasn't that she was naive; all the money embezzled and hoarded by generations of servants of the gods in the blink of an eye had gone into her pocket. Anyone would be bewildered by such a thing.
The two stood in front of the entrance.
Miyano asked her, "Are you going anywhere else?"
Ruan Xianxian considers herself a greedy person, and also believes she knows when to stop while she's ahead.
Miyano seems more capable than before, but if he were absolutely certain, he should be saying things like, "I'll take you to overturn this island nation," or "I'll take you to other places."
His questioning tone suggests that he was not confident of escaping unscathed.
Their goal was simply to get their money back with interest, and that's enough for them now!
If they really cause a big commotion and the island nation goes all out, revealing that they are carrying a large amount of money, the United States will definitely be willing to be the first to stick their neck out.
To put it mildly, a chase at sea would inevitably leave them with nowhere to escape; to put it more seriously, it would be truly not worth it to bring war back to China, which had just managed to quell the conflict.
Therefore, Ruan Xianxian shook her head rationally.
The little hand clenched into a fist and pulled down, "I'm not going. I'll just steal the aircraft carrier, go home, get a marriage certificate, and have a baby."
Miyano looked at her deeply again, a smile playing on his lips.
He fiddled with his watch. "There are still eleven hours until the next shift change in this secret location. We must use this time to get back to the ship and get away."
Disassociate yourself from this matter.
He reached into his pocket, pulled out something, flicked it with his fingertip, and tossed it out. Ruan Xianxian watched as a dollar landed in an inconspicuous corner.
