Chapter 82: Killer
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The journey was unexpectedly peaceful. From the return trip to the Misty Valley until they entered the Hunter Association’s territory, Liao Ning and the others were not attacked at all.
This shouldn’t be the case. The system would never give meaningless reminders, let alone issue missions without difficulty.
Liao Ning stared at the office area of the Hunter Association in the distance with a frown. The architectural style of the Hunter Association’s branch office on Planet Mu was similar to that of the European-style manors on Earth in ancient times. The three-story office building was in a semicircle and faced the tall door of the manor. If one wanted to enter the office building, one had to pass through a wide square in the middle.
The plaza was spacious, and there were many residents who went to the Hunter Association to do things. There were also many members of the association who were walking in a hurry with documents in their hands. All kinds of people were gathered together. This plaza was undoubtedly the best hiding place.
Zhou Ling obviously had the same thought as her and his expression turned solemn. “If they really set up an ambush here, I’m afraid it will implicate innocent people.”
“It can’t be avoided.”
If possible, Liao Ning didn’t want innocent people to be implicated.
Unfortunately, since they had already resorted to assassination, there was a high chance that the other party wouldn’t be so kind.
What happened next was just as the two of them had expected.
The moment they followed Zou Xu into the center of the square, many people glanced at them. Many people even slowly approached them.
Zhou Ling tensed up, like a ferocious beast that was ready to bite off the enemy’s neck at any moment, and he guarded Liao Ning firmly.
The moment they passed by the bench at the edge of the square, a man and a woman who were flirting a second ago suddenly pounced on Liao Ning and Zhou Ling. The delicate rose branch in their hands seemed to have turned into a sharp blade that stabbed at Liao Ning extremely quickly.
Fortunately, Liao Ning was already prepared. Just as the woman was about to stab her, she turned around and grabbed the woman’s wrist firmly with her right hand before hitting the woman’s abdomen with her left elbow.
Liao Ning’s attack made the woman’s face turn pale and the intense pain in her abdomen made her fall to the ground.
When the man who was fighting Zhou Ling saw that his companion was injured, he immediately attacked Liao Ning ruthlessly.
“Be careful!”
Zhou Ling reminded Liao Ning and took the opportunity to grab the man’s clothes. After he hugged the man’s head with both hands and pressed it down, he raised his knee and slammed it into the man’s face.
Upon hearing the crisp sound, Liao Ning knew that the man’s nose bridge must have been broken. As blood flowed out of the man’s nostrils, the man immediately covered his nose in pain and wailed. Then, he was kicked to the ground by Zhou Ling.
Seven to eight more people immediately appeared. One of them even took out a gun.
Looking at the crowd that had lost control, Liao Ning didn’t want them to be implicated. She looked at Zou Xu, who was watching from the side, unhappily. “President Zou, do you hope that there will be casualties in your territory? This will definitely be the headline on tomorrow’s news.”
Zou Xu naturally didn’t want such a report to appear on the news tomorrow, so he instructed his subordinates, who were stunned on the spot, “What are you guys waiting for? Hurry up and evacuate the crowd before informing the poncer
Liao Ning and Zhou Ling quickly approached the people with guns and snatched the guns from their hands, forcing them to fight them in close combat.
Ten minutes later, the police arrived at the event location quickly. With the help of the Hunter Association members, the assassins were tied up and sat on the ground with their heads drooping.
“It’s like this…” As the president of the Hunter Association, Zou Xu had to explain.
Liao Ning came to Zhou Ling’s side. “Can you tell who sent these people?”
Zhou Ling shook his head. “There’s nothing on them that’s unique to certain factions. They’re also very stubborn. Now that the police are here, I can’t interrogate them.”
“You even want to interrogate him? Colonel Zhou, that’s a violation of the alliance’s terms!”
When Zhou Ling saw Liao Nings exaggerated expression, he smiled. “I was just kidding..”
