Chapter 381

Mutant Brawl

/*unedited*/

What happened on the road that day didn't become sensational because it was just labeled as street violence plus no victims were reported.

What happened made those people who are watching Shin Jiao's group in the shadows took a step back from their plan because of an unknown variable.

Many of their spies reported what happened on the road and told them about a hidden security detail of the group which is a very strong fighter.

When the Variant squad heard this and saw the images, they immediately recalled the so-called superhero which is helping the NXT Element Company CEO. That man in the shadows has foiled their plans at that time and they have suffered multiple casualties.

This information is also known to many secret agencies of different countries so they became cautious and careful this time. They didn't want to end up in failure just like what happened to the Russians.

The next day somewhere in Manhattan area at a tall building

Six people are currently walking in the lobby and have attracted many onlookers. The four Asians and two Caucasian women had a look that can make those who see them unconsciously be attracted. Three women with an almost otherworldly beauty that does not belong to this world, along with two really handsome men made everyone feel like looking at some really famous Hollywood stars.

Shin Jiao is just wearing casual clothes, a white printed T-shirt overlaid with a black coat, blue jeans, and blue sneakers. Susan Tang and Shi Anne Li are both wearing a black and white suit with black high-heeled shoes.

Park Jiyong wore a red T-shirt, black jeans, and rubber shoes. Mary Anderson is wearing a blue knee-length dress which insinuates the curves of her well-proportioned body. And Jane Weiss just wore brown slacks and blue-red blouse.

Although she is not as attractive as the other people with her, she carries her own in front of others with confidence.

Upon arriving in the location, the group walked down the lobby and took an elevator. Then they arrive in a beautifully decorated hall and were led to a two-door conference room. As they entered the large conference room they saw many people that are already sitting around the large mahogany table.

When the door opens, everyone inside the room caught the attention of six people walking inside. Jane Weiss roams her gaze in the room and immediately walked towards the middle-aged man who is sitting in the middle.

"Chairman Benson, I have brought them. This is Doctor Jiao, Miss Tang, Miss Li, Mr. Park, and Princess Mary Anderson."

Hearing her introduction, everyone had a surprised look on their faces.

The people in the room belong to some of the most prestigious people in the US and with a very influential background.

Even Shin Jiao was surprised when he entered the room. This is because he can see some men uniform sitting with the group.

"Welcome! I am Henry Benson, the chairman of the American Medical Association. I am happy that you have agreed with our invitation Doctor Jiao." Henry Benson said while looking at Shin Jiao.

Shin Jiao nods his head politely in response.

Then the talk began as the people in the room began to discuss what they wanted to have. They also offer to give Shin Jiao free access to some of the weird cases in medical history, this way he can incorporate it into the system.

It took them almost half the day and the first part of the meeting was done at around 7 pm in the evening.

The result was agreeable to the people in the room and everyone left with smiles brimming on their faces. However, Susan Tang and Shi Anne Li had a look of exhaustion on their expressions.

"Both of you have to work hard. Thank you for helping me with this." Shin Jiao said while holding both the women's hands.

The group already knew that Susan Tang and Shi Anne Li are Shin Jiao's women, so they were not surprised at this scene.

However, one of the doctors who attended the meeting had a look of annoyance on his face.

While in the meeting he was making small talk with Susan Tang and Shi Anne Li. And the two were very accommodating hence it bolster his confidence that the women might have a little attraction towards him. As someone who was born in a prominent family and a good doctor, he is confident that his background is attractive to women.

However, now he just discovered that the two are actually close to the young man they called Doctor Jiao. This made him feel annoyed.

He thinks that Shin Jiao is a mere technician who has the ability to make some small games, so he looks down on him.

Plus he heard that they will be paying the guy, so he didn't understand why should they be polite to the person?

Seeing the dissatisfaction in his eyes the middle-aged man beside him patted his shoulder.

"Doctor Raynor, you seem unhappy?"

"Nah, something just annoyed me."

The middle-aged man who patted Doctor Raynor on the shoulder turns his gaze towards Shin Jiao and his sweet interaction towards the two women beside him and heaves a deep sight.

"As a senior in our profession, let me give you a warning. Do not covet what's not yours, or you'll be sorry." The middle-aged man said with a smile and walks past the young doctor who suddenly had an incredulous look on his face.

That night everything was peaceful and nothing untoward happened. And the group had a nice dinner and went home immediately.

Shin Jiao by practice didn't sleep but set up an array and began to cultivate. Beside him are Susan Tang and Shi Anne Li who found it more effective to meditate as it recovers their vigor more efficiently than sleeping.

The next day

The three had a refreshing morning as they woke up feeling good and invigorated.

When they got down to the hotel's restaurant for breakfast, they've met with Mary and Jiyong who also went with them.

Upon arriving in the restaurant, Shin Jiao immediately had his senses on alert.

"It seems that they can't wait anymore."

They are currently standing near the entrance and saw some tables already occupied. Shin Jiao didn't know who in this place their enemies are, but he is sure that there are many of them. He felt like he is being eyed by a viper waiting for a chance to strike if his attention became distracted.

However, Shin Jiao is still confident that he can handle these people. Right now he is just judging the situation by his feelings, but he didn't doubt it as he has already proven them correct. In his amnesiac state, he relied on his sharp senses to wade through every dangerous situation he faced until now. So he is confident of his hunch.

While watching the restaurant some people approach them from behind.

Shin Jiao immediately turns to look and saw a bulky white man wearing a simple shirt that insinuates his hulking muscles. Beside him is a Caucasian man with blonde hair and an eye patch on his left eye.

"You must be Doctor Jiao." the man with the eye patch suddenly said with a smile and extended his hand to Shin Jiao.

"I am Captain James Crugger, I and my team will be your security detail for the rest of your stay in America." He added.

When Shin Jiao and his group heard this, they showed a confused look on their faces.

"Ah, you must be surprised. My superior told me that what you are doing is a great contribution to our great nation and we thank you for that. So as long as I and my team are by your side, you can rest assure that you and your group will be safe." Captain James Crugger said proudly.

Shin Jiao eyed the other two people behind them.

A sly looking man with a unique iris just like that of a snake, and a beautiful curvy brown-skinned Native American young woman.

"Thank you then. I'm guessing that you are assigned to us by the general, right?" Susan Tang said as she steps forward to shake their hands.

"Ah, yes… General Hewer told us about you. It's funny that we were supposed to capture you guys. And now we are to protect you. Hahaha!" the bulky man said with a laugh.

When his teammates heard this they look at him like they were looking at a fool. But they didn't rebut his words as it was the truth and they would not deny it.

"Let me introduce my team to you… These are Dozer, Slick, and Owl…"

Each of the members nods their heads as they were introduced.

"Hmm… mutant squad. You're the famous Omega Squad, right? Haha… I can't believe that we are going to be protected by the strongest mutant squad of the US. I feel honored." Mary suddenly said with a wide smile on her face.

"Hehe… you flatter us. Please to…" Captain James Crugger said.

But suddenly he was interrupted by a loud boisterous voice.

"Haha… The Americans are surely very sly and quick to make their moves. But do you think you are powerful enough to stop us? We too have the strength to fight you." A large man wearing a suit that seems to not fit his stature stood up.

His suit looks like it is about to burst from the size of the man's body.

With the man's words, the rest of the people who are eyeing Shin Jiao and his group suddenly stood up. The other customers and waiters who detected the dangerous situation immediately ran away from the scene in a panic.

"Oh, it seems that we have a situation here. Slick, we need a place of retreat." Captain James Crugger said as he stood in front shielding Shin Jiao and his group.

"Hehe… My pleasure Captain. Beautiful young misses, please allow me to escort you to the venue." Slick said with his signature sly smile.

He extended his hand and gestured for the rest to touch it. Although Shin Jiao and his group were a bit skeptical, they decided to trust these people. They have no choice. Shin Jiao knew that if a fight broke through in the restaurant it would cause too much damage and would endanger may lives. He is not someone who likes to see people get hurt, and so he decided to trust the man even though he had a shady look on his face.

When all the people have touched his hand, Slick suddenly extended his hand towards Captain James Crugger who is throwing a taunting look at the people with a gaze of hostility towards them.

"Hehe… Bye guys! See you!" he said.

Then their figures began to blur as if they are fading from the surroundings. Their enemies immediately showed an alarmed look on their faces as they panicked.

They knew that if the Americans took their targets it would be hard for them to find them. With the protection of the Omega Squad, their task has just risen up to another level of difficulty.

As the people began to panic and the figures of Shin Jiao and the rest with him as slowly disappearing, a light chuckle suddenly distracted the attention of every person in the restaurant.

This is because that chuckle could not be heard by their ears. This is because it is directly directed to their minds.

"Hihi… It seems that the Omega squad has underestimated us…" a voice which seems to come from a small girl echoed inside everyone's mind.

"A psychic? Damn it! The Russians!" someone said in alarm.

Then everyone's gaze turns towards the corner where a group of three people walks out.

Two tall men wearing exactly the same black and white striped clothes and a small 12-year-old girl wearing a cute red dress slowly walks forward.

Shin Jiao and his group were about to disappear suddenly became visible again as if the spell to make them disappear was canceled.

"Shit!" Slick cursed as he suddenly fell down on his knees with his nose bleeding.
