Probably due to years of practicing ancient martial arts, Duan Hengye’s perception of changes in the external state was very strong. Even though it was now a new shell, after this period of integration, the familiar state had slowly returned.
The vast and lush golden forest was like a splendid oil painting, not only on top of the treetops, but even the ground had been covered with a thick layer of golden fallen leaves at this time. The sound of rustling could be heard from underfoot as one walked by, which sounded extremely interesting.
Counting the staff, Duan Hengye’s group had almost thirty people. Normally when so many people were walking on the fallen leaves at the same time, the sound of footsteps should be noisy and hard to recognize. But for a connoisseur like Duan Hengye, even if he closed his eyes, he would be able to recognize the figure of the person through the sound of footsteps. Now, although Duan Hengye’s state hadn’t fully recovered, it was still possible to listen to the sounds and identify the location.
After Meng Jinhuai left, the Chief of Tizi Star had also calmed down. There was nothing around here now except for the sound of the breeze blowing through the leaves as well as the sound of footsteps, the silence was a bit excessive.
Duan Hengye was quietly admiring the scenery around him, but just suddenly, he heard other vague footsteps coming from a short distance away, and there were clearly many visitors. Duan Hengye who was walking forward couldn’t help but pause for a moment, were there still other people inside this scenic area now?
Today was the first time Duan Hengye participated in this kind of activity, and he was a little uncertain whether this scenic area of Tizi would adopt some special security measures to isolate other tourists as he imagined, and whether the visitors would be the staff from this site.
But just as Duan Hengye was puzzled, Meng Jinhuai who was standing at the side suddenly stopped in his tracks.
…There was definitely a problem.
At this time, a gust of wind blew against the ground, lifting up the thick golden carpet that was originally laid properly on the ground. From afar, the gaps in the woods looked as if they were suddenly wrapped in golden crushed diamonds, brilliant and dreamy. The viewers who were watching the live broadcast couldn’t help but hold their breath, but in the midst of the beautiful scenery, the staff members who noticed Meng Jinhuai’s suddenly halted steps were also brought to tension at the moment.
“Careful!” The words hadn’t completely fallen off, Meng Jinhuai pulled out a small silver-white quantum gun from nowhere, and without a moment’s hesitation, he fired at the front of the target. Then Duan Hengye saw that not far away, directly in front of him, a man with a black mask fell heavily to the ground. The Star Era’s Quantum Gun didn’t make any sound, but at the same second that Meng Jinhuai fired, Duan Hengye saw that the Tizi Star Chief, who had been following behind them, immediately sat down on the ground in shock…
Immediately after Meng Jinhuai’s shot, dozens of similarly dressed people emerged from the surrounding forest. This group of people were well-trained and clearly unaffected by the fall of their companions.
Although Meng Jinhuai was a marshal, according to the laws of the empire, in a non-war situation, he couldn’t bring soldiers when he was traveling to a planet not under his jurisdiction. He couldn’t bring soldiers with him when he was traveling to a planet outside of his jurisdiction in a non-war situation. That was why the security guards for today’s trip to Tizi were all people from this planet. Obviously, these people were not professional.
“Take Ah-heng to the side!” Meng Jinhuai fired continuously without blinking his eyes as he ordered the security personnel behind him.
Although Meng Jinhuai already knew the original owner’s identity as an undercover agent, but thanks to his confidential work, he was unaware that the original owner had also undergone a series of professional training, which included combat and gun training. The two main categories of firearm use…
Today’s live event was special, in order to ensure the aesthetics of the picture, Star Media did not use an automatic camera for live broadcast, but sent a special cameraman in the surrounding responsible for the moment debugging equipment. At this time, the scene was in critical condition, and the photographer who was not the key target and was at the last side of the team had already ran towards the suspension vehicle under the cover of several staff members.
In the panic, a miniature hover camera was left in place.
Duan Hengye saw the camera, which was still parked in place, and after hearing Meng Jinhuai’s order, he cleverly avoided the camera to avoid trouble, and then quickly retreated to the other side of the woods with a security officer by his side.
This was a group of well-trained killers, they are numerous and ruthless. Because his teammates were too scummy, Meng Jinhuai’s side fell into a disadvantageous position soon after. At the same time, because the staff ran away without cutting the signal, the biggest live broadcast incident in the history of Star Network’s live channel happened – they were even continuing to broadcast the chaotic footage on Tizi!
The hearts of countless people in the interstellar were hanging high because of the live feed, and because the live camera hadn’t been moving, they only saw Meng Jinhuai’s teammates who fell one by one… It was simply the four words “vulnerable” that had been interpreted to the extreme.
What exactly was wrong with the security of the Tizi Star?
Aside from worrying about Marshal Meng Jinhuai’s safety, what made people feel even more anxious was Duan Hengye’s current safety situation. Due to the fact that he hid in the camera’s blind spot, no one knew how Duan Hengye’s side was now. It was not that people were apprehensive, it was just that this matter of Professor Duan’s poor health has left too deep an impression on everyone. Seeing this chaotic scene, people would of course worry about his safety first.
Not only the spectators, but the killers were also looking for Duan Hengye.
Seeing that Meng Jinhuai’s side was falling down one after another and was vaguely at a disadvantage, the killers started to look around for Duan Hengye’s figure. Unlike the few close friends beside Meng Jinhuai who knew the identity of Duan Hongyue, in the eyes of the rest of the people, they were still the most loving husband and husband in the interstellar world, and the spouse was Meng Jinhuai’s weak point.
After seeing the eyes of some of the killers poking around, Duan Hengye also immediately thought of this.
— Should he continue to pretend and wait here to die, or should he take action to solve the trouble? The answer was very obvious.
Duan Hengye whispered to the staff beside him, who was clearly scared but still trying to act calm, “Give me the gun.”
“Huh?” This staff member clearly didn’t understand Duan Hengye’s meaning, and after hearing Duan Hengye’s words, he even turned around and blinked at the other party.
…Duan Hengye was somewhat speechless.
Now in the current era of armored warfare, close combat had long since fallen out of favor. With a little bit of brainstorming, one could guess that this childish staff next to him probably didn’t have much combat experience at all – 80% was chosen to act as a front door because of his good looks. In his heart, he cursed Tizi security again, and when he saw that the other party was too frightened to move, Duan Hengye directly took out the other Quantum Gun that he hung on his waist.
At this time, the killer had already seen Duan Hengye, and after leaving a group of people to continue to hold Meng Jinhuai back, there were more than twenty people who turned around at the same time and aimed their Quantum Guns at his position.
Because the scene was too chaotic, someone finally bumped into the miniature hovering camera while dodging gunfire. Immediately afterward… the camera was coincidentally pointed at Duan Hengye’s location.
Great! Professor Duan is fine! The audience on the Star Network immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
But before long before everyone was happy, people saw from the camera the killers gathered towards Duan Hengye. Of course, Meng Jinhuai also noticed the scene not far away, and somehow after seeing this scene, the hand holding the gun actually involuntarily trembled a little.
Meng Jinhuai obviously should hate the man who tried to kill him. But at this instant, he actually subconsciously turned around and pointed his gun at the killers who were running towards Duan Hengye, looking like he was planning to help Duan Hengye.
But in the next second, Meng Jinhuai witnessed the incredible scene happen along with the millions of people who were watching the live broadcast…
“Hide behind the tree.” After seeing the killer running towards him, Duan Hengye suddenly stood up, then kicked the security guard who was still frozen in place behind a tree. Immediately after that, he pointed his gun at the front-most killer, and without even half a moment’s hesitation, he pressed the trigger three times in succession at the other party.
These three hits hit the other party’s two knees and the hand that held the gun, the action was sharp.
Despite practicing martial arts since childhood, Duan Hengye hadn’t even killed many animals since childhood. Although this was a life and death situation, he still subconsciously left the other party alive.
Discovering that their companions had been wounded by Duan Hengye, the killers were actually stunned in place due to excessive shock. It wasn’t until they saw Duan Hengye running towards Meng Jinhuai’s direction with his gun aimed quickly without stopping for a moment, that the remaining killers regained their minds as if they had woken up from a dream.
The white, slightly loose clothes flew up to the sides in between running, and from a distance, it looked like a snowflake falling on the golden forest.
“F*ck…” an assassin exclaimed with wide eyes and no care for his image before he was struck down by a slap from Duan Hengye.
Where was the said sickling? Where was the promised soft spot? What about the promise to faint at every turn? Where was the big tow bottle they were promised? Duan Hengye, you liar!
