Supremely Talented Tyrant

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Standing on a thick branch of a distant big tree, Hao Jian gazed at the continuously collapsing hillside, the sound of explosions emanating from within, deafening.

Hao Jian's eyes were deep and cold. From the moment the base's self-destruct mechanism was triggered, the lives of Uhtred and the others were no longer their own.

Their base was dug very deep, solely to avoid detection, but unfortunately, now the deeply entrenched base has become their grave.

"It's just a pity there are still many high-ranking officials we haven't dealt with."

As Hao Jian knew, only a few people like Uhtred were inside the base this time, which meant little to this vast organization.

Shaking his head at the situation, Hao Jian was a bit troubled, but unfortunately, he had no good way to resolve it. After all, there were so many of their bases.

Even if they randomly fled to a base, Hao Jian would have to search each one, not to mention they might not even go to these sub-bases.

"Take it one step at a time, that's all I can do now."

Seeing the commotion in the distance gradually calming, Hao Jian stomped on the branch, leaping out, and quickly ran toward the original small hill.

This time, the main goal was to see if there were any survivors. If there were, Hao Jian would finish them off, sending them truly back to Hell. If not, then it was good news, as Hao Jian wouldn't need to deal with them himself.

Half an hour later, Hao Jian carefully inspected the one-mile radius crater, confirming no signs of life before leisurely retrieving his small backpack from a corner and leaving the place.

An hour after Hao Jian left, a group of fully armed soldiers arrived. One who seemed to be the leader frowned at the large crater while listening to his subordinate's report, finally exhaling a sigh of relief.

Finally extinguished.

The leader commanded the soldiers to immediately seal off the area. He was fully aware of what existed in that crater, and that knowledge was precisely why he needed to keep it sealed.

If whatever was inside made its way to the international stage, the consequences for their country's reputation would be severe. Previously, a few high-ranking officials in the country had protected the site, preventing them from coming here.

Unfortunately, after members of the organization left, those high-ranking officials either learned something or one night, before they could react, suddenly left the country. Now their security team was secretly investigating their whereabouts.

Hao Jian was unaware of what happened afterward, and even if he knew, he would be reluctant to intervene, as he was only responsible for destroying the things inside the base. The rest was up to the leaders of the country.

This time, consider it a favor to this country.

"Haha, this issue will require careful consideration. With so many sub-bases, how long will it take me to destroy them all!"

In a hotel room, Hao Jian sighed as he packed away various traps in the room, casting a long gaze at the ceiling. "Qingxue girl, this is as far as I can help you with this vendetta for now. Once I locate their positions, I will properly help you avenge."

His eyes deep, he stared at the ceiling, accompanied by a cold laugh, as the room fell into silence, only the sound of the wind breaking the quiet.

"I believe it won't take much longer..."

...

"Bang!"

It was unclear how much time passed when Hao Jian's hotel room door was suddenly kicked open from outside. Immediately after, a group of fully armed soldiers rushed inside, cautiously surveying the surroundings.

However, when they found that the room was empty, they visibly relaxed, with one soldier running out of the room and reporting after a quick glance.

"Sir! No one's here!"

A closer inspection revealed that the person being called 'Sir' was the same leader who had earlier led the team to seal off that area. His face was stern, though if one looked closely, there was a faint hint of tension beneath the surface.

But upon hearing the report from his subordinate, for some reason, his initially severe expression softened slightly, his once upright posture now appearing slightly bent.

"Gone, have they?"

A faint sense of loss washed over him, and after casting a lingering glance at the room, he helplessly waved his hand, saying, "Pack it up. Since the person's gone, there's no point in us staying here any longer."

The real reason for this visit was that he had only just uncovered information related to the owner of this room. Various pieces of evidence suggested that the owner of this room was significantly linked to the destruction of that organizational base.

From the moment he arrived on this island, the base started having issues, and today, it was ultimately destroyed, buried deep in the endless earth.

Initially, he thought it was a coincidence, but now, he was certain that the room's owner was indeed the one who destroyed that base!

Checking the records at the hotel's front desk revealed that this person had used a fake ID, or rather, the ID was genuine, but the person wasn't the individual on the ID.

Adding to this, they had left without even checking out of their room, making it all the more certain that this person was intricately involved in the incident.

Now that the person's gone, he couldn't track them down, so he decided to drop it. If he ever encountered this person again, he hoped to thank him properly.

After all, they unintentionally eliminated a few pests for several countries.

Meanwhile, Hao Jian, the protagonist of this event, had arrived at the city's airport. Just moments ago, he'd bought his ticket and would soon board the flight home.

Of course, the ID he used for the ticket was his own, or rather, a fabricated version by the Ministry of Defense to facilitate his movements.

These IDs were logged in the nation's system, although the recorded individual wasn't Hao Jian but someone else.

Shortly afterward, Hao Jian boarded the homebound flight. Once on the plane, he closed his eyes to rest, knowing he wouldn't be disturbed as he had bought multiple first-class seats.

As the night deepened in R Country, Huaxia welcomed a sunset. When Hao Jian set foot on the Land of Huaxia, an inevitable smile crept onto his face.

"It's solid to stand on my nation's land."

Stomping his foot on the ground, Hao Jian shook his head with a smile, pondering if he had been too sentimental lately.

Perhaps so...

Shaking his head, he sorted his belongings and left Hua City Airport. The small backpack containing equipment had already been handed to someone else on his way to the airport, trusting the organization responsible for such deliveries to bring it to Hua City. He believed it must have reached Spice Ginger by now.

Returning to his residence, Hao Jian tossed his jacket onto the sofa and headed for a shower. Afterward, he didn't even bother with dinner before crawling into bed and falling asleep.

Every time he traveled to faraway places, adjusting to the time differences was necessary to avoid mistakes at work, and there was nothing pressing at hand, making it a good time to sleep early.

Sleeping until noon the next day, Hao Jian rubbed his swollen head, sluggishly got out of bed, washed up, grabbed a meal, and began strolling the streets of Hua City.

"Hmm, let's check out Qingxue girl's school first. According to Spice Ginger, she was discharged from the hospital yesterday afternoon, so she should still be in her dorm now."

Rubbing his chin, Hao Jian changed direction, heading leisurely toward Hua City University, located over ten kilometers away. Given his walking speed, even at a normal pace, he was quicker than an average person running.

Covering the ten kilometers took Hao Jian just over half an hour, offering a peculiar sight on the streets of Hua City.

Although one might sense someone passing by, it was puzzling because they couldn't get a clear look at what the person looked like.

By the time they turned to look, the person was already out of sight.

While Hao Jian was preparing to look for Lin Qingxue at Hua City University, Lin Qingxue was not at school as Hao Jian expected. Instead, she was on her own, leaving the school and heading to a small pedestrian street not far away.

This pedestrian street emerged due to the student traffic from a few schools and catered to university students' budgets, making it a popular destination for students and nearby residents alike.

"Hmph! Those three women! They actually refused my invitation!"

Walking on the bustling street, Lin Qingxue pouted, her delicate face filled with dissatisfaction. Today, her three roommates had agreed to go shopping with her to celebrate her release from the hospital.

However, they realized it was Saturday and, without heeding her, happily went home under their parents' guidance.

Remembering their expressions before leaving made Lin Qingxue unhappy, and with no one to vent to, knowing Hao Jian had gone abroad for some matters and unsure when he'd return, she could only take out her frustrations by shopping relentlessly, testing everything in sight, gradually improving her mood.

After visiting five or six shops, her delicate face no longer showed dissatisfaction or other negative emotions. Instead, it radiated a goddess-like smile.
