Chapter 524: 263, a few bugs have gotten in, remember to pay me the cleaning fee!

The door next to the living room opened, close to the window, under the moonlight.

A black-clad youth with a steady presence stood there quietly. His stature was tall and well-proportioned, with muscular arms exposed below the short sleeves. On his wrist was a red cord with a golden plaque hanging from it.

This red cord, the green-haired woman had one as well; the two of them were probably lovers.

"An Yao, Luo Ping."

Yao Qing greeted them, seemingly quite familiar with the three.

Five minutes later.

In the living room, the sofa and coffee table area.

Five people were seated on three sofas, with a cup of strong tea in front of them.

Yao Qing chatted about old times for a while and then asked. "By the way, has there been any unusual occurrences with the Eternal Sleep Sect recently?"

The green-haired beauty An Yao’s expression turned somber: "Actually... there has been..."

"Wait, who is this?"

Next to her, the black-haired youth Luo Ping cut An Yao off and looked towards Bai Xiao.

"Oh, this is Bai Xiao, a master hired by Chairman Lin, especially here to help me. He’s one of our circle, one of our own, no need for pretense..."

Yao Qing replied with a smile.

Following that, she showed Bai Xiao’s identity as a combat specialist and the battle mission issued by the Mo Yun Group headquarters, with no procedural flaws.

On the sofa, Luo Ping gave Bai Xiao, who remained expressionless, a deep look before averting his eyes. For some reason, he felt an almost intangible yet overwhelming pressure coming from this muscular man; it was invisible but immense.

That feeling was akin to being squeezed into a small room with an elephant.

Even though the elephant might not do anything to you, its mere normal breathing and heartbeat were enough to set your nerves on edge. That sense of insignificance in the presence of such a massive being lingered on, raising the hairs on one’s arms ever so slightly.

Luo Ping frowned slightly and the next second that feeling seemed to disappear.

This made him wonder if it was just an illusion.

On the other side, An Yao had already started chatting with Yao Qing.

"In the past two days, there seems to be something important happening within the Eternal Sleep Sect. The cult members who were originally scattered across the Federation have been summoned and are flocking to the Anmian Resort. Even yesterday, a Death Sleep Master of the bishop level, the Hand of Demon Sleep, returned. I wonder what’s the reason?"

"Bai Shui and the others are already investigating, but it seems unlikely they’ll find out anything. These Death Sleep Masters from the Eternal Sleep Sect are experts at manipulating the mind. Many interrogation techniques are useless against them. If the sect discovers that a member has gone missing, it would just make the rest more alert..."

An Yao’s voice was heavy, as if troubled.

Yao Qing nodded, glanced at Bai Xiao beside her. Bai Xiao met her gaze without any change in expression. The sudden gathering of Eternal Sleep Sect members from all over the Federation and the return of high-ranking bishops was an unexpected situation. Bai Xiao was unafraid; these were just more ants that needed to be crushed. Compared to the Eternal Sleep Sect, he was more concerned about huge Biological Armor companies like Mo Yun Group and those at the General Level.

It is said that General Level Biological Armors are comparable to the Sect Leader Realm in Martial Arts!

If Bai Xiao could acquire one and fill it with devouring points, his Four-dimensional Attributes would likely surge dramatically, a true boon indeed!

In the sofa area, everyone was drinking tea and engaging in deeper conversation.

Yao Qing and Bai Xiao learned that not only Mo Yun Group was surveilling the Eternal Sleep Sect, but also personnel from various major companies. In the past few days, the entire task force led by Luo Ping encountered colleagues more than once. This included those from Heavenly God Company, Beihai Company, Feng Guang Group, and even those from places like Evolution. Just yesterday, a conflict arose.

Personnel from Heavenly God Company and those from Evolution nearly came to blows with Luo Ping’s team, but ultimately both sides sensibly retracted and did not engage in a real battle. Clearly, the matter with the Eternal Sleep Sect was not concluded, and there were considerations on all sides.

In fact, Mo Yun Group, Beihai Company, Feng Guang Group, had an unspoken understanding and unwritten rules among them. Even if they were to fight over the spoils and snatch the Divine Flesh, it had to wait until the hordes descended to obliterate the Eternal Sleep Sect. Provoking a reaction now would bring unnecessary losses to all parties.

"Heavenly God Company and those from Evolution are so annoying, they don’t even want to abide by the unwritten rules. If it weren’t for the appearance of people from Beihai and Feng Guang Companies nearby, perhaps we would have really fought." The youngster in the blue tracksuit said discontentedly.

"We probably need to request the headquarters to send one or two more squads over. We don’t have enough people; facing Heavenly God Company and Evolution at the same time, we might suffer a loss..." An Yao, sitting beside him, put down her teacup and spoke very rationally.

On one side of the living room, near the window.

Luo Ping took out his phone, having just received a few text messages. The screen lit up slightly, revealing that they were from Bai Shui, a member of the team currently on surveillance duty.

"Boss, be careful!"

"Heavenly God Company has made a move on us!"

His pupils contracted, and he was about to warn everyone as he looked up sharply.

Out of the corner of his right eye, by the window, there was a burst of firelight expanding, followed by something shaped like a missile speeding towards it, shattering the glass.

"Boom!!!"

The rocket exploded in an instant, gunpowder burning, and a swelling golden-red flame swept through. A dense shower of shrapnel shot towards every corner of the living room.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The next second, another three rockets flew wildly, piercing through the dust and smoke produced by the explosions, striking the sofa area where Yao Qing, Bai Xiao, and others were located. The sound of explosions boomed, one after another, as flames and shock waves spread out.

Dozens of meters away, on the dark and dim beach.

A few figures put down the rocket launchers they were carrying on their shoulders, cheering.

"Hahaha, what a bunch of idiots!"

A muscled bald man with a shiny head laughed loudly, his face full of flesh squeezing together: "Not even this bit of precaution, trash!"

"You were lucky not to be wiped out yesterday! Ptui!"

Beside him, a tall and thin young man with Scarred Face had a sinister look. He disdainfully spat on the beach and strode forward.

"Go, let’s burst in and check, in case there are any fish that slipped through the net!"

"Yes!"

From the shadows behind, three more people stepped forward, forming a five-man squad in total. They instantly donned Biological Armor, covering themselves with fierce and formidable hard contours, with sharp weapons and claws exposed on their arms.

With a leap at their step, they smashed through the white walls of the first floor in the blink of an eye.

"Bang!"

Several formidable figures rushed into the living room, illuminated by the moonlight.

Next to the gaping hole in the wall, a figure covered in black Armor collapsed heavily onto the ground, it was Luo Ping. Although he had reacted in the nick of time, his armor was severely damaged, with traces of blood flowing faintly. Luo Ping took a direct hit from a specially-made rocket and almost instantly lost his combat capability.

"This is all Mo Yun Group has got!?"

The muscled man transformed into a towering figure in Biological Armor, lifted his foot for a kick.

He instantly sent Luo Ping flying, his back heavily hitting the wall.

"Thud!"

He groaned, then shouted with all his might.

"An Yao, run away quickly!"

The leading Scarred Face young man suddenly laughed softly, his heavy hard footsteps tramping on the ground, making a dull noise as the Armor walked.

"Hahaha, why run away?"

"Those three follow-up specialized rockets were all aimed at their side! By now, probably only minced meat and debris remain, I suppose!"

His smile twisted beneath the mask as he walked towards the middle of the hall.

Behind him, where the hole was, the sea breeze surged in, instantly dispersing all the smoke.

"Click."

Scarred Face’s step suddenly stopped, his smile freezing.

In front of him, in the area where the sofas were located.

A terrifyingly huge muscular figure appeared, blocking the path like a dark high wall, with its back muscles spread out as if night had fallen!

On it, there were clearly three black marks where the rockets had shattered.

It hadn’t breached the defense at all!

Only some metal fragments fell rustling down as the muscles writhed.

"Click-click-click-click..."

The sound of bones and joints operating resonated, dull and loud. It was like a giant battle machine awakening from slumber, its parts furiously intermeshing.

The towering black and red figure, touching the ceiling, radiated an astonishingly hot magnetic field, causing the surrounding air to warp and distort. The heavy breathing echoed, causing the ground to tremble, as if a wild behemoth had emerged.

"You..."

Scarred Face’s pupils contracted, his breath stalling.

"Whoosh!"

The wind howled.

The massive figure in front of him slowly turned around, opening his terrifyingly large hand.

The fierce and emotionless face, bathed in moonlight, seemed like a demon.

"Looks like some little bugs have broken in."

"Remember to pay me a cleanup fee later, Yao Qing."
