The battle was extremely intense.

More than 20 veterans, together with more than 20 people brought by Wang Li, a total of more than 40 people, led by more than 80 women, children and old people, engaged in a fierce battle with Ivy's troops near the arsenal. With this arsenal, at least these people wouldn't be in a situation where they would be completely destroyed in a short period of time.

Wang Li had given Xu Taiping twenty minutes. Normal people would need at least ten minutes to travel a kilometer, but Xu Taiping's team was fully armed and would even need to face a possible attack. It seemed impossible for them to travel this far in twenty minutes, let alone finish the mission in twenty minutes.

However, this was the difference between normal people and special forces.

Not to mention Xu Taiping, five minutes was more than enough for Chen Sanbao and Lin Yubin to cross the one kilometer distance between the enemy's base and their base.

The three of them quickly moved forward. Because the battle at the warehouse area was very intense, all the armed forces in the center area were rushing towards the crossfire. This created a lot of convenience for Xu Taiping and the other two.

When they got close to the centre of the mansion, Xu Taiping and the others encountered obstacles.

Abigail paid great attention to the safety of her mansion, so there were five light tanks and at least a hundred infantry soldiers. Other than that, there were also countless hidden guards, and as soon as an enemy appeared, it was basically a dead end.

Xu Taiping, Chen Sanbao, and Lin Yubin hid in the shadows of a small two-story building, looking at the huge mansion in front of them.

This mansion took up a lot of space; it was at least the size of two basketball courts. However, the floor wasn't very high, with the highest being only three floors.

"Do you know where the hostages are held?" Xu Taiping asked.

"The hostages are in the basement." Chen Sanbao pointed to the center area of the mansion and said, "In that center area, there is a passageway leading to the basement, and the Marines are stationed near that passageway."

"The last time you entered, how did you do it?" Xu Taiping asked.

"We're going directly in from the air, using the wingman device." Chen Sanbao said.

"Now, I want you to go solo and attract firepower. Who has the confidence to not only attract firepower, but also preserve their own life?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I'll go. I've done quite a few things to attract firepower." Lin Yubing grinned.

"Fine, then you go. When you make any noise, we'll start our infiltration. It will take about thirty seconds. If you persist for thirty seconds, then retreat. Find a place to hide!" Xu Taiping said.

"Alright, then be careful of your safety!" Lin Yubing turned around and left.

"Can you walk on the tightrope?" Xu Taiping said to Chen Sanbao who was beside him.

"This is our training program." Chen Sanbao nodded.

As this place is surrounded by the buildings on the ground level, we cannot use the sliding rope. We can only use the steel wire to connect the two ends, and then walk through it with our own feet. This place is a blind spot, and after Lin Yubin makes a noise, we have thirty seconds to travel from this house to the mansion, because the patrolling troops will appear once every thirty seconds. Xu Taiping said.

"Thirty seconds? The two of us? If two people were to leave at the same time, the difficulty would increase! " Chen Sanbao said.

"You go first. Try to reduce the time to twenty seconds. Give me ten seconds and it'll be enough!" Xu Taiping said.

"Ten seconds?" This is a distance of close to 100 metres, and even if I were to run quickly on the road, I would need at least 11 seconds to reach that distance! " Chen Sanbao said in shock.

"That's why I asked you to try to compress the time and give me more time!" Xu Taiping said.

"Then I'll try my best!" "I will do it as soon as possible!"

"En!" Xu Taiping nodded, "It's up to you!"

About five minutes later.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

A loud sound came from the southwest area of the manor.

Some of the troops stationed around the manor headed towards the southwest, while the others guarded the area around the manor vigilantly.

Xu Taiping took out a claw device from his bag. It was found in the storage room. Under normal circumstances, it was used to climb high buildings.

Xu Taiping shot his claws at the mansion across the street.

With a clang, the flying claw successfully landed on one of the manor's railings.

Xu Taiping stretched the rope a little and tied it to the pole behind him. Then he looked at his watch and said, "We'll leave in eight seconds!"

"Alright!" Chen Sanbao nodded, then began to listen to the countdown of Xu Taiping.

"Three, two, one, go!" With Xu Taiping's order, Chen Sanbao stepped on the steel rope and ran along the rope.

The steel rope that was as thick as a finger was not completely taut because it was completely taut, making it even more inconvenient to walk.

Chen Sanbao held the spear in both hands and used it as a balance pole. Then, he quickly moved forward.

Balanced training was an important part of special training. Chen Sanbao usually walked on the tightrope and would not have any problems performing in the acrobatic troupe.

Xu Taiping looked at the watch in his hand. Based on Chen Sanbao's current speed, he would finish the entire run in eighteen seconds.

Chen Sanbao walked smoothly. In seventeen seconds, he was already close to the end of the steel wire.

Right at this moment, a gust of wind blew by, this gust of wind was too sudden, the moment Chen Sanbao lifted his feet, the wind blew onto his body, causing him to lose his balance. Right at this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew by, this gust of wind, the moment Chen Sanbao raised his feet, the wind hit his body, causing his body to lose its balance.

Chen Sanbao's swaying speed and time were both increasing. Just as he was about to fall, a powerful force suddenly came from the steel rope.

Chen Sanbao's entire body was sent flying forward and he fell directly onto the ground of the mansion.

Chen Sanbao quickly turned around and saw on the other side of the steel rope, Xu Taiping was standing with one foot on the steel rope.

Just now, he had stepped heavily on the steel rope, causing it to rebound upwards and sending Chen Sanbao flying. Only then did Chen Sanbao safely land on the ground. However, after doing this, Chen Sanbao had already used more than twenty seconds, reaching twenty-one seconds!

Without any hesitation, Xu Taiping stepped on the steel rope and quickly ran in the direction of Chen Sanbao.

Chen Sanbao could swear to the heavens that he had never seen anyone on the steel rope that could run as fast as on the ground, even faster than him!

Xu Pingping was like a gust of wind, whizzing across the distance of one hundred meters, arriving in front of Chen Sanbao and landing on the ground.

The moment Xu Taiping landed on the ground, he cut the steel rope off his claw. The contractile device on the other end automatically retracted the steel rope. At the same time, a pair of patrol team members walked past Xu Taiping and his team.

If Xu Taiping was just a second too late, the patrol would have seen him. By then, the two would have been completely exposed.

Xu Taiping put his finger to his mouth, signaling Chen Sanbao not to make a sound. Chen Sanbao nodded to show that he knew.

The patrol squad quickly walked past Xu Taiping and his friends.

"Let's go!" Xu Taiping said in a low voice and ran in a certain direction.

Chen Sanbao quickly followed behind Xu Taiping. The two of them passed through a small building on the second floor and arrived before a surveillance camera.

"Are you sure that the entrance is in the central area?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I'm sure!" Chen Sanbao nodded.

"Are you sure there are only twelve Marines there?" Xu Taiping asked.

"The last time we attacked, there were only twelve of them. It's possible that they might send more men now!" Chen Sanbao said.

"Alright, now I want you to do something. It's very important!" Xu Taiping said seriously.

"What is it?" Chen Sanbao asked.

"I want you to attack the center and be arrested." Xu Taiping said.

"Huh?" Chen Sanbao looked at Xu Taiping in astonishment.

There are many ways to save hostages, but we can also take advantage of them. As long as we can find Ivy, we can get out of this predicament, so, we have to confirm that where Ivy is, I want you to go to the attacking center area and be arrested. When that happens, you have to find a reason to ask for an audience with Ivy, you are a soldier of Huaxia, and his men won't dare to kill you directly. Xu Taiping said seriously.

"No problem." Without any hesitation, Chen Sanbao nodded and agreed.

"Have you thought about it? This method of yours is the most dangerous. Bullets have no eyes. No one can guarantee that you won't be shot before you get caught!" Xu Taiping said seriously.

"Danger? In the eyes of us Chinese soldiers, there is no danger, only mission. " Chen Sanbao smiled.

"Good job." Xu Taiping patted Chen Sanbao's shoulder and said, "I will be in charge of destroying their surveillance system. From here, if you walk north, there will be a small road, and then turn left at the end of the road. After that, there are two paths, take the road on your right hand side, and after five meters, take the road on your left hand side, you will reach the central area!"

"You've been here?" Chen Sanbao asked in surprise.

"I've never been here before." Xu Taiping shook his head.

"Then how did you know this place so well?" Chen Sanbao asked.

"Satellite map." Xu Taiping said.

"Satellite map?" One had to know, they had also seen the satellite map of Avier Prefecture. The entire manor was crisscrossed with many roads, and there were many places that were almost exactly the same. It was extremely difficult to not get lost inside, not to mention having to memorize all the roads here.

This Xu Taiping was too terrifying. No wonder he was from the center! Mobile users please browse and read, better reading experience.
