Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 1063 - 535: I Want You All Dead
Just as the battle was raging, a soldier responsible for guarding Flying Eagle suddenly pulled out a pistol and started firing, catching the other soldiers off guard and killing them all.
"No—Jo, why are you doing this?" a comrade who had a good relationship with the soldier clutched his shoulder and asked painfully, not just because of the physical wound but also the deep hurt from betrayal.
"You're not going to join us, are you?" Jo said gently, "If I spare you, that vicious leader will still find ways to torture and kill you, because he won't trust you. So, let me set you free."
Watching his friend die before his eyes, Jo's gaze turned extremely cold.
This act of betrayal and slaughter had played out in his mind countless times. This is the fate of an undercover agent. They cannot afford any unnecessary emotions.
"Don't run into me in your next life." Jo murmured to himself.
Then he turned to look at the still stunned and bound Flying Eagle and the others: "Now you have two choices: first, follow me to find another leader; second, die here."
Flying Eagle and the others naturally didn't want to die in vain, so they all expressed their willingness to follow Jo and leave.
"But where should we escape from? The leader's men are all outside the door." The seasoned elder said worriedly, "And we're also injured, incapable of fighting." He was actually very concerned that Jo might ask them to risk their lives right away.
However, Jo smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry, my master has already made arrangements for this kind of thing."
He clapped his hands, and a secret passage that no one else had noticed slowly revealed itself.
Even Jo was seeing the secret passage for the first time, and seeing that Jo's master had such significant means, everyone showed expressions of surprise.
"Jo... who exactly is your master?" The elder's voice was filled with solemnity and curiosity, after all, the person who could have such a secret passage must have played a crucial role in building this base from the beginning.
"My master?" Jo said with a smile, "is the one behind this rebellion."
Before everyone could ask more questions, he stepped into the secret passage first, and seeing this, everyone followed, leaving the room empty soon after.
Subsequently, the entrance to the secret passage disappeared with a mechanical creaking sound, they knew this meant they now had no way back.
Since they had reached this point, any further worries were futile, the elder thought to himself.
Now they are still weak and powerless; if Jo wanted them dead, he could have done it earlier without leading them to this secret passage.
"Can you tell me what your master needs us to do?" The elder couldn't shake the uneasy feeling.
Jo's previous statement "the source of the rebellion" didn't mention anyone else, indicating his boss's status was likely far higher than the three characters who popped up.
Such a person wouldn't bother with those three clowns, so what did he need from these powerless men?
"As for that... honestly, I don't know either." Jo said, "My master is just that enigmatic, you'll never guess what she wants, and don't even think about guessing her intentions."
"Otherwise, you'll end up dead." Jo shivered slightly as he said this, as if recalling something terrifying.
The group continued to move forward in the darkness, never touching on the previous topic again.
Except for Jo and Wild Ox, everyone was secretly pondering: who exactly was this resourceful, high-status, and mysterious person?
Finally, after a long and oppressive journey through the darkness, they gradually heard the wind.
Wild Ox perked up, "Are we getting out?"
Jo shook his head: "Of course not...I think you should prepare yourselves before you go any further."
He hesitated for a moment, seemingly finding the right words to express what he wanted to say: "Because the scene you'll see for the first time might be... quite shocking."
No one paid him any mind, even though the metal underground fortress they encountered earlier had already been an eye-opener.
But being special forces soldiers from a major country, they thought they had seen some things in the world.
Now, they were all wondering: even though they had been descending since entering this tunnel, why was there wind?
Could it be an underground canyon? The elder pondered, feeling this might be possible, while internally thinking: it's just a canyon, these mercenaries haven't seen much of the world.
Then, reality slapped the elder hard in the face, forcing him to admit, he was the real frog in the well.
He had always thought this group of people were just ordinary mercenaries, overlooking the massive arms smuggling network behind them.
This globally monopolized arms smuggling industry had profits so enormous, it was simply astonishing.
It could even be said that the wealth of some developing countries combined couldn't match that of these arms dealers.
At this moment, what lay before them was a small ecological enclave akin to a scene from a science fiction film, meticulously protected under a glass dome.
Inside the enclave, a girl sat alone on a swing between two trees, gently swaying.
She was Li Congjing, her brows holding deep longing and sadness, along with indescribable self-reproach.
And within these complex emotions, the most striking was the madness she was desperately trying to conceal.
