Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Just as he was about to pull the trigger, he suddenly felt a pain in his neck and fainted before he could react.
The person on the other side of the warehouse did not hear any gunshots for half a minute. He was about to ask what had happened when he saw a black figure jump over from behind him.
He raised his gun and aimed at the black figure. Before he could shoot, he felt a numbness on his neck. He instantly lost consciousness, and his sniper rifle instantly fell onto the roof of the warehouse.
The man in the warehouse didn’t hear the sniper shoot. He shouted into the headset anxiously.
“Hey, what are you doing? Why haven’t you made a move yet? What happened?”
“Hey, Alan, do you hear me? Alan? Jimmy, what are you doing?”
The man’s voice in the earpiece gradually became agitated. Wen Xin casually threw the earpiece on the unconscious sniper and walked to the skylight to observe the people inside. There were a total of 26 people inside, and there were two snipers.
Wen Xin calculated how much time it would take for her to move from one sniper position to another if she decided to take action against one of them from a particular angle.
After calculating, Wen Xin slowly opened one of the skylights. She walked to the fallen sniper, removed the sniper rifle from his hands, and deftly crouched in the sniper position.
Placing the rifle on her shoulder, she aimed through the scope, locked onto the head of the sniper in the corner, chambered a bullet, and smoothly pulled the trigger, completing the sequence in one fluid motion.
As the gunshot rang out, the sniper in the warehouse was shot in the head and fell to the ground. Panic sounded in the warehouse.
The person who had just climbed up to the warehouse roof saw this and raised his gun to shoot Wen Xin.
In an instant, Wen Xin snatched the gun from her leg holster and shot him in the forehead.
Without pausing to think, Wen Xin jumped up and ran to the other side, firing at the sniper who was shifting position. The bullet hit the sniper, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
The three gunshots caught the attention of everyone nearby. Mu Chengxi looked at the familiar figure crouching on the warehouse roof, gripping the pistol tightly. He never expected to see Wen Xin in such a situation.
At that moment, Wen Xin crouched on the warehouse roof, holding an AWM sniper rifle, her movements as agile as her in-game character.
The others also realized who the person crouched on the roof was. Mu Dong looked at Mu Chengxi in astonishment. Mu Chengxi’s face was pale with shock.
“Master Xi, it’s Wen Xiaoxin!” Liang Luoyu, ignoring his own injuries, limped to Mu Chengxi’s side.
“Take action. Whether it’s goods or people, leave nothing behind.”
Mu Chengxi’s voice cut through the air, cold and authoritative, leaving no room for doubt.
His gaze fixed tightly on Wen Xin on the warehouse roof, his emotions swirling within him.
His heart nearly leapt out of his chest. He could hardly believe how bold Wen Xin had become.
A shadowy figure stealthily emerged from the other end of the warehouse roof, appearing behind Wen Xin. Raising a gun, they took aim at her.
Mu Chengxi saw this, his breath catching. He raised his gun and fired at the man, dropping him.
Hearing the gunshot from Mu Chengxi’s direction, Wen Xin turned her head, her beautiful eyes blinking at Mu Chengxi. She then pressed her earpiece andspoke coldly, “Take action.”
Following Wen Xin’s command, the members of the Chou Alliance, who had been crouching in the shadows, instantly emerged. They charged towards the rear of the warehouse, swiftly neutralizing the Shadow Alliance members who had been preparing to provide support.
At the same time, the members of Organization M burst out from hiding and rushed into the warehouse, subduing those who still sought to resist.
Wen Xin casually sat on the roof, observing the three factions in action. A faint smile played on her lips; the situation had been resolved so effortlessly.
Retracting her gaze, Wen Xin saw that someone had come up from the roof—it was none other than Mu Chengxi.
She sat there without moving. Her exquisite eyebrows were slightly raised, and her bright black eyes were like a cold lake, filled with the blood left behind by her anger. The corners of her eyes were wild and arrogant, and her unruly attitude was unrestrained and flamboyant.
Mu Chengxi glanced at the men Wen Xin had effortlessly dealt with, then walked up to her. He crouched down, furrowing his brows as he looked at the girl and the gun in her hands.
His thin lips were slightly pursed, and his voice was very low. “Why are you here? Shouldn’t you be at school?”
Before Mu Chengxi left the house, he specially sent Wen Huai a text to ask about Wen Xin’s situation in school. He only left the house with his heart at ease after Wen Huai’s reply that Wen Xin was doing well in school.
Doesn’t she know what this place is? The other party was from the Shadow Alliance. Did she not know how dangerous this place is?
Looking at Wen Xin, Mu Chengxi felt flustered for the first time. The scene just now was engraved in his mind. If Wen Xin was in any danger, who would compensate him?
Wen Xin observed the man crouched in front of her, having recovered from the earlier tension. She slightly softened the coldness in her eyes as she looked at him, her voice husky. “Aren’t you supposed to be in Continent F now? How come I wasn’t informed? Since when did Ancient Market Town turn into Continent F?”
Mu Chengxi met Wen Xin’s playful gaze, realizing that the first time he lied to her, she had caught him red-handed. He had initially wanted to question why Wen Xin was wandering around, but now he found it difficult to speak confidently.
“I didn’t want you to worry, so that’s why I came to handle this matter!”
“I also didn’t want you to worry, so that’s why I came here to deal with it myself.” Wen Xin’s responses were matter-of-fact, showing no signs of embarrassment despite being caught.
On the contrary, it was Mu Chengxi who couldn’t meet Wen Xin’s eyes at this moment. Despite knowing that Wen Xin had been searching for the Shadow Alliance, he had kept it from her and even lied.
Wen Xin gazed at Mu Chengxi, who appeared somewhat guilty, and smiled gently. “I can overlook the fact that you lied to me, but I’m really angry that you kept this from me.”
“I can explain this…”
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin, but she completely ignored his attempts to talk.
Sensing the situation, Mu Chengxi wisely chose to remain silent, not wanting to further upset Wen Xin, who was clearly in a less-than-favorable mood.
They stood on the warehouse roof, feeling the cold breeze. Observing that the members of the Shadow Alliance had all been captured, Wen Xin smiled with satisfaction.
Wen Xin stood up, tossed the AWM rifle beside the sniper, and holstered her pistol. With agile movements, she descended the stairs from the warehouse roof..
