1364 The Gathering of Tripartite Forces 2

With her assuming that the little guy was scared and nervous, his unexpected reply truly left her dumbfounded.

He suddenly spouted a wise saying in earnest. "Kids really shouldn't drink so much cola."

Following which, he placed the glass of cola aside.

He sounded like an old man with his wise tone.

Vermilion Bird: "…"

She really had enough of this little dumpling's cold humor at such a critical moment.

The boy lowered the car window and swept a monitoring glance at the situation outside. His face instantly turned cold as he reminded his subordinate, "Don't act rashly. Let's wait and monitor the situation!"

"Copy."

She nodded in acknowledgment.

Having this road quickly blocked off and the site sealed, Mu Linfeng's men took precedence in having total control of the situation!

His presence was out of the boy's expectations, though.

According to the former's plan, he intended for his brother to stay at the station before driving him to the airport at dawn to board a plane bound for San Francisco.

Mu Yazhe indeed took actions as anticipated, but his nephew's men were unexpectedly highly capable for they easily took care of the soldiers at the base and took his brother away with just a group of over ten people.

He felt utterly disgraced.

The soldiers guarding the base were all elite, yet they got trampled on so easily by a small group of mercenaries. How could he not be angry?

Hence, he specially deployed the army's special forces this time. Each of them was scrawny and a battle-hardened fighter with remarkable prowess.

Having gained total control of the situation, Mu Linfeng alighted from the stopped vehicle under his men's protection.

He haughtily surveyed his surroundings solemnly as soon as he was out of the car. Without further ado, someone stepped forward and reported, "Cadre leader, we have gained the upper hand in this situation and are just awaiting your instructions!"

"Where's my brother?"

"In the car!"

Standing ramrod straight at his side, one of his men pointed to the armored vehicle parked not far from them.

Youyou snorted inwardly upon catching sight of the elder from his car window.

This second grand uncle seemed to have quite the authority in the army!

Did others with slightly special backgrounds behave in a similar manner, putting on airs before they got anything done?

Well, it was quite an imposing front, nonetheless.

Deputy Zhou and his team naturally did not dare to act rashly now that the situation was not in their favor.

Nothing could be gained if they were to clash head-on. Mu Yazhe had previously ordered them to bring back Mu Lianjue, dead or alive and at all cost! As mercenaries, their employer's words were final and not to be contested, so they regarded his order with holiness.

Hence, he and his team decided to be level-headed and calm as they prudently remained in place while awaiting the arrival of the additional manpower the boss had sent their way.

Mu Linfeng sent someone to scout the deputy's car, bringing his brother out of it thereafter.

The arrogance and despotism of his men left the deputy feeling spiteful.

They were, unfortunately, outnumbered. As such, they could not overestimate their capabilities and rush forward to fight for their target.
