Chapter 706: Chapter 466: Beautiful Women Need Special Treatment (Second Update)_1

"What deal?" His icy gaze was placid while Mu Lin’s cool lips curled up, as though he was extremely interested in the other person’s proposal.

"You were supposed to be the next one." The man said.

"And now?" Mu Lin asked, did that mean she wasn’t next anymore? Or did it mean...

"Now." The man got even closer to Mu Lin. The distance between them was almost negligible. The masked people nearby whistled instinctively. Mu Lin stepped back while mildly furrowing her brows. The man chuckled lightly, "Now, if you obey me, I will find someone else to replace you."

As the man finished speaking, the people nearby, who had relaxed slightly, immediately became on guard again. They had thought that they would have another ten minutes to wait for rescue.

Even more surprisingly, some women started to envy Mu Lin. Although these people were looking at her, at least she still had a chance to survive. When it came to life and death, nothing else was significant.

If it were them, they would agree without hesitation in order to survive. Looking at Mu Lin, they presumed she also had the same thought.

Only if Mu Lin was the same as them.

Standing there, her beautiful eyes slightly wrinkled, her thin lips tightly pursed. Even though she was trying hard to cover her aura, it still gave off an unwelcoming feeling.

Although it was faint, Mu Lin could still feel the chill coming from behind her. Of course, this coldness was definitely not for her, even though it was because of her.

She told herself to be patient, at least, until Xigua and the others came in.

She gave the several guns upstairs a cursory glance causing the corners of her lips to curl up even further.

"What if I refuse?" Mu Lin questioned without answering directly. This issue of obedience seemed to not require much consideration from her.

"If you refuse." The man’s lips curled up immediately drew back, "Then you’ll end up just like them, even though I would hate that." While saying this, the man gestured to the bodies on the ground that were growing cold, as if warning her.

"That’s terrible." Mu Lin sighed as she looked at the bodies before turning to the man, "According to you, it seems like I don’t have any other choice."

But was that really the case?

Meanwhile.

Xigua and his group quickly advanced to the ventilation opening. Even though the space was narrow, for these well-trained soldiers, this was not a problem.

Well...except for the last chubby one who was kind of struggling.

Who could blame him? He was just a little more robust than the others.

"Damn it, the ventilation ducts in this mall have so many twists and turns. I wonder if the one who designed this mall was also with these guys." Wu Ya complained. Fortunately, he wasn’t clueless about directions, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to find the boss’s location.

"I think you better save your strength to fight later. Even if you complain, they won’t be able to hear you." As for whether the mall designers were colluding with the enemies, that was not their concern at the moment.

"Xigua, what should we do the moment we break in? Attack immediately?" As his group’s temporary leader, they had to follow Xigua’s instructions.

Upon hearing this, Xigua pondered momentarily, "We’ll act inconspicuously at first. First, the heavyset one and Thousand-mile Eye will head to the control room and open all the closed doors. The rest of us will each find a place to hide. When the enemy discovers us, we will instantly take out the guards that Boss told us about before."

Without additional threats, dealing with these people wouldn’t be an issue for them.

Even though this wasn’t the Special Forces’ task, as soldiers, in a situation like this, their first priority has to be ensuring the safety of the hostages. Otherwise, the badges on their shoulders and arms will be dishonored.

They are the Special Forces! The invincible and triumphant hawks. In this unfamiliar territory, they absolutely can’t let their comrades be shamed or tarnished.

"Understood." The chubby soldier and Thousand-mile Eye had gotten the message clearly, while the others agreed with their plans too. They gradually got closer and closer to the enemy.

Meanwhile, the man they were waiting for outside had finally been brought in. At that moment, his handcuffs and shackles were clanging and his face was filled with a triumphant grin as if he was extremely satisfied.

"I told you before, you guys will have to release me sooner or later." He sounded immensely pleased with himself. It infuriated the other side, but they couldn’t do anything about him. At least for now, they couldn’t touch him.

Everything depended on the safety of the hostages inside.

This man and the man inside were both psychopaths, undeniably bloodthirsty psychopaths.

These people committed so many heinous acts, not just for money, but for the maddening lust for blood in their hearts. Seeing blood and hearing the helpless terror of people, they exhibit unusual excitement.

In their eyes, lives are worth nothing, otherwise they would not use the lives of tens of thousands to trade for the life of a single person.

The person has been brought here, the assault was temporarily suspended, except for those under Ying Sun.

Even though the superiors were ordering them to fully cooperate with Ying Sun, there was always that age-old saying on the ancient battlefield; when a general is out, he may disobey the monarch’s commands. They are not to comply with the higher command, but with all the circumstances on the field.

The person in charge took out his cell phone and dialed the same number again. At this moment, the man inside was still busy ’small talking’ with Mu Lin.

"Indeed, in here, you have no other choice. If you want to return to your brutish home safely, you’d better behave." The man’s words made their surroundings seem like a place of contempt, at least it was a place he completely disdained.

Mu Lin didn’t particularly like such talk, however.

Before she could finish her thought, the man continued, "I’m curious how a place like that can produce such a delicate being like you. It’s an incredible thing." His expression seemed utterly disbelief, although no one could really see the face beneath the mask.

Still, one could tell from his intonation, this man looked down on her very much.

"Brutish." Mu Lin raised an eyebrow, laughed instead of getting angry, her face wearing a bizarre smile, "I’d like to ask you a question. Do you know how to write the word ’brutish’?"

She really wanted to know, after all, their culture was vast and profound.

Hearing Mu Lin’s words, the other man’s eyes involuntarily hardened, although Mu Lin was provoking him almost all the time, he didn’t seem to mind at all and let her continue.

This perplexed many people, but they could not do anything to it.

Even if you envied it, it was of no use. After all, you didn’t have a delicate face.

At any time and anywhere, a beauty always needed special treatment.

Looking at Mu Lin, the man was obviously unable to answer the question. However, the ringing of the phone the next moment saved him the embarrassment.

With a slight raise to his lips and his eyes never leaving Mu Lin’s pretty face, he answered the phone with a half-smiling, half-serious tone.

"The person you want is here." The voice on the other side was calm, "When are you going to release the hostages?" Being in a threatening position, he almost couldn’t bear it anymore.

"Oh? You’re finally here." The man, however, just slowly smirked, his eyes still fixed on Mu Lin’s indifferent face, "Let me hear his voice first." He ordered impolitely.

The man on the other side of the call sneered in his heart, feeling extremely upset. He then switched the phone to speaker mode, signaled his companion to speak.

"Boss, I’m really proud of you." Not a greeting, but a harsh statement that turned the personnel officer’s face totally black at that moment. His fists clenched tight. If it were possible, the gun on his waist would’ve been pointed at the man’s head by now.

However, they couldn’t do that yet.

"Boss." The man inside the room smiled slightly, his eyes finally turning to the camera as if he were looking at the people outside, "I’ve finally heard your voice." That wasn’t an easy thing to do.

"Mmm." The boss started to say something, but the phone was quickly taken back.

"You’ve heard his voice. Now where are the hostages?" The officer’s voice was ice-cold, "When are you going to release all the hostages?" Once the hostages were safe, they could act without any hesitation.

If it weren’t for the large number of hostages and the potential high-profile impact, these people might’ve acted rashly already.

"First bring my boss in, then I can give you half of the people." The man’s voice rang out leisurely, "The rest will only be released when we have confirmed our safety."

"No." Unfortunately, the proposal was promptly rejected by the other party.

The man scoffed coldly, "You should know that in this game, you have no right to refuse. Or have you forgotten already?"

His seemingly joking words carried a hint of sarcasm. Mu Lin glanced at him, her eyebrows slightly raised.

Right now, she really couldn’t tell whether these people wanted to live or die.
