Chapter 15: Attack!

Chapter 15: Attack!

Chu Zhou flipped over nimbly and descended Fengmao Building.

"Got something."

Chu Zhou's words attracted the attention of Liu Qianqian, Zhou Tong, and Jin Zhennan.

"I saw a hall covered with blackout cloth on the 16th floor. I couldn't see exactly how many people were inside…"

"But I did see three people and a body stabbed with broken glass."

"I wanted to listen to their conversation… Unfortunately, they deliberately lowered their voices and I could only vaguely hear words like 'police', 'plan', and 'be careful'."

"Nonetheless, I'm 80% sure that this is the stronghold of the fallen martial artists we're looking for with this level of information."

Chu Zhou whispered what he had just seen and heard as quickly as possible.

Zhou Tong was dumbfounded.

He had only wanted to make things difficult for Chu Zhou earlier on and make him work for nothing.

He did not expect Chu Zhou to really discover the stronghold of the fallen martial artists.

Jin Zhennan gritted his teeth with regret filling his heart.

He had long known that Fengmao Building was the stronghold of fallen martial artists.

He had gone up to investigate the situation himself just now.

However, Chu Zhou became the one who made the discovery.

This great credit would, without a doubt, be given to Chu Zhou.

Liu Qianqian was pleasantly surprised. They had finally found something after a busy night.

"I didn't expect the stronghold of these fallen martial artists to be hidden in this dangerous building. Let's inform Officer Gao Jun and the others immediately."

Liu Qianqian whispered.

According to the instructions of Wang Weiyang, the commander of Operation Storm, students were to report the discovery of strongholds immediately and should not act on their own.

When Zhou Tong heard that Liu Qianqian was going to inform Officer Gao Jun and the others, he immediately panicked.

The stronghold was discovered by Chu Zhou. The credit would go to Chu Zhou.

If the stronghold was still destroyed by Officer Gao Jun and the others…

Then he, Zhou Tong, would basically have no contributions.

Even though he had killed two the fleeing fallen martial artists in the Red Maple District—

That credit was actually very small and could not satisfy him at all.

He participated in Operation Storm this time because he was prepared to make a huge contribution and make a name for himself in Jiang City's third-year cohort. He wanted to make everyone look at him in a different light.

How could he let it end before he achieved his goal?

Especially since Chu Zhou's contribution would be even greater than his if it were to end now.

This was something he would never allow.

"There's no need to inform Officer Gao Jun and the others… We can completely destroy the fallen martial artists ourselves."

Zhou Tong said confidently.

He had killed two fallen martial artists in the Red Maple District with two punches not long ago with such ease.

It caused him to consider all fallen martial artists inferior to him—

Unless there were Awakening Realm fallen martial artists in this stronghold.

However, how could it be so easy to meet Awakening Realm fallen martial artists?

"No, Commander Wang Weiyang said that we must report the discovery of the Fallen Martial Artists' stronghold immediately," Liu Qianqian said solemnly.

"Qianqian, you're too cautious."

"I am enough to deal with them alone!"

"Wait for my good news!"

Zhou Tong directly rushed towards Fengmao Building and scaled the building like Chu Zhou after he spoke, not bothering if the rest agreed with him or not.

"Brother Zhou, let me help you!"

Jin Zhennan's eyes flashed and chased after him.

"Damn it, they actually violated the Commander's instructions… What should we do now?"

Liu Qianqian looked at Chu Zhou.

"Report the situation to Officer Gao Jun and the others!"

Chu Zhou said calmly.

He did not care too much about getting credits.

Therefore, he did not want to violate the instructions with Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan.

Moreover, he was the one who discovered the stronghold. This was enough credit.

"Okay!" Liu Qianqian contacted Officer Gao Jun directly with her phone. "Officer Gao Jun, we found a Fallen Martial Artist stronghold on the 16th floor of Fengmao Building. However, Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan have already acted on their own."

"What? You found a stronghold? Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan acted on their own?" 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘰𝘳𝑔

Officer Gao Jun's shocked voice came from the phone. Then, he cursed,

"Are they idiots? Do they really think that fallen martial artists are so easy to deal with?"

"The two of you, chase after them immediately and see if you can stop them… If you can't, try your best to save them. Remember… If you encounter a crisis that you can't do anything about… Escape. Don't worry about them."

"All our officers will be there imminently as well."

The call ended.

Chu Zhou and Liu Qianqian exchanged glances beforing scaling Fengmao Building.

Chu Zhou and Liu Qianqian arrived at the 16th floor in no time.

Bang bang!

Two figures covered in blood flew out from behind the blackout cloth and hit the floor heavily.

"It's Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan!"

Liu Qianqian exclaimed.

Chu Zhou saw Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan, who were covered in blood and had their limbs broken. He could not help but be slightly stunned.

He did not expect them to be defeated so quickly.

Moreover, in such a miserable way.

"Hahaha, Brother Liao, these two rookies were saying that they want to destroy us even though they are still wet behind the ears… It's really a joke."

"They've really overestimated themselves, especially the one who rushed up first. He actually said that we're trash and wants to kill us with one punch. Where did he get his confidence from?"

"Hehe, maybe he fought with some of us from somewhere and won… However, he probably doesn't know that our groups are completely different from each other. For example, Brother Liao has successfully fused a portion of the Golden Thread Bowback Ant gene with his genes. Even though he hasn't advanced to the Awakening Realm, he's still much stronger than ordinary Advanced Apprentices."

"Hehe, aren't we lacking experimental subjects recently? These two rookies actually came knocking on our door. What a gift."

Eight people with vicious expressions walked out from behind the blackout cloth.

The leader was a scar-faced man.

This scar-faced man was very special. His hands were completely different from normal human arms.

They were thicker than an ordinary human's arms and were also covered by black carapace with a golden line on it.

"Eh? Two more?"

The scar-faced man stepped on Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan's chests, causing their faces to contort as they spat out blood.

At that moment, Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan saw Chu Zhou and Liu Qianqian.

Embarrassment, shame, humiliation, and various other emotions surged into their hearts like a tide.

They were just thinking that the two of them could easily suppress all the fallen martial artists in this stronghold!

In the end… they were easily suppressed.

There were indeed no Awakened Martial Artists in this stronghold.

However, the scar-faced man's strength far exceeded their imagination.

His arms were like the arms of a monster. They were too powerful.

He had severely injured them in just two moves.

All sorts of thoughts and emotions surged into Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan's hearts… However, they only had one emotion left in no time—

Fear.

They were afraid of death!

"What's wrong with this scar-faced man? How did his arms become like this?"

Chu Zhou stared at the scar-faced man and frowned.

It was not that he did not understand the situation of fallen martial artists.

However, there was no information about the mutation of the scar-faced man's arms from the things he had learnt online and in school.

Could it be that the government had deliberately blocked this information?

Chu Zhou guessed.

"The elders in my family once told me that I must not let my guard down when I encounter fallen martial artists in the future. They said that some fallen martial artists are different… So, this is the difference?"

Liu Qianqian looked at the scar-face man's arms and muttered to herself.

When Chu Zhou heard Liu Qianqian's voice, he immediately knew that he had guessed correctly.

Information about the fallen martial artists that was deliberately blocked by the government, perhaps out of some considerations.

Moreover, the secrecy was very likely only targeted at ordinary people while it was an open secret to some elites and rich people.

"Brother Liao, two more rookies have come… It seems that our stronghold has been discovered. Perhaps the hyenas from the police station will arrive soon."

After seeing Chu Zhou and Liu Qianqian, a fallen martial artist immediately became vigilant and reminded the scar-faced man.

"I understand!" The scar-faced man nodded and said, "Then kill them and move immediately."

As he spoke, he exerted force with his feet, wanting to crush Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan.

Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan felt the aura of death.

They were terrified.

"No… don't kill me! I'm willing to join you." Zhou Tong's face was pale, and his face was filled with fear. "I can also help you take down these two people."

"Brother Liao, what do you think of that woman? She's the genius beauty of our Fifth High School and the school belle… I can take her down and hand her over to you for training."

"Brother Liao, I can also help you take them down… Moreover, my family has some connections in Jiang City. I can also help you find a new stronghold as long as you don't kill me!" Jin Zhennan quickly said.

Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan had completely defected in the face of death threats.

"You guys are shameless!" Liu Qianqian was so angry that her eyes almost spewed fire.

She did not expect that Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan not only surrendered to the enemy but also wanted to capture her and let the scarred face man play with her in order to survive.

At this moment, these two people were even more hateful to her than the fallen martial artists in front of her.

"Eh, these two rookies are quite sensible. They actually know how to please Brother Liao." A fallen martial artist laughed strangely.

"Hahaha, the two of you are indeed sensible. Since that's the case, I'll spare your lives for now… However, I don't need your help to capture them. You're too slow!"

The scarred-face man exerted a little force with his feet, knocking Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan unconscious. Then, he turned into a shadow and rushed towards Chu Zhou and Liu Qianqian.

However, Chu Zhou was even faster!

Swoosh!

A sharp arc of blood flashed, and the scar-faced man instantly retreated.

He glanced down at one of his carapace-covered arms.

A line of blood slowly appeared on the elbow of this arm.

Then, one section of the arm dropped to the floor.
