Chapter 701: Chapter 728 Death (2)

"What about the others?" Lin Xi retorted.

Zhao Ritian was stunned, "What?"

Lin Xi said, "You talk about the backgrounds of the other few people as well!"

Zhao Ritian and Zhu Qi were protected behind by Zhao Tu and the elder, fully on guard, as they watched the four facing them.

Meanwhile, Lin Xi was not paying attention to Basajov who was slowly approaching, waiting for Zhao Ritian’s reply.

This scene somehow felt a bit odd.

Zhao Ritian paused momentarily before reacting, thinking to himself, "Shouldn’t Brother Lin be fully alert dealing with Basajov at this point? Why is he asking about the other four?"

"What kind of tactic is this?"

He could not comprehend it, and neither could Zhu Qi, Zhao Tu, and the elder.

Zhao Ritian still said, "The leader’s name is Hani, an American, not belonging to any organization. In our Huaxia terms, he’s a lone wolf, yet he seems to have good relations with many powerful individuals."

"This person can be considered the strongest among the five!"

"Two African-Americans, one named O’Neal, the boss of the 13th district in the United States, likely the weakest among the five, but this man is cowardly and the oldest among them, why would he dare attack me?"

"It’s said he loves money, probably induced by Hani."

"Another African-American, Martin, leader of the Despair Mercenary Corps, but..."

’But’ hadn’t been finished when Basajov attacked Lin Xi, and Hani’s four also moved towards Zhao Tu and the elder, instantly a burst of air-piercing sounds echoed in Zhao Ritian and Zhu Qi’s ears.

The two couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat off their foreheads; if they were to encounter one of the five, they’d likely be defeated in seconds.

This level of combat wasn’t something they could intervene in.

At this moment, they only had one thought, which was to distance themselves as far as possible.

However, behind them was an abandoned business vehicle, leaving no retreat. Even if there was a way to retreat, they dared not move, as they felt that as soon as they did, one of Hani’s four would immediately have a hand free to deal with them, taking their lives.

That moment, Zhao Tu and the elder were sure to intercept, but then Zhao Tu and the elder would be in even greater danger.

The only solace for the two was that Zhao Tu and Zhu Qi, along with the elder, against Hani’s four, were only slightly weaker.

This wasn’t because Hani’s four were weak, but because Zhao Tu was too formidable.

Even though all were Peak Soldiers, his strength was slightly superior to anyone among Hani’s four.

And the elder’s strength was not weak either, close to the strongest Hani.

So, it quickly turned into a stalemate.

However, Hani’s four, in a two-to-one scenario, wouldn’t last much longer.

But for a short-time resolution, Hani’s side could only hope Basajov would swiftly take down Lin Xi.

Then, Zhao Ritian and Zhu Qi would be eliminated in seconds, and that thing would be in hand.

At that point, they wouldn’t bother entangling with Zhao Tu and the elder and would leave immediately.

Otherwise, the police would probably soon arrive.

And at the same time, Basajov, who was engaged with Lin Xi, also fell into a deadlock; he discovered every bit of strength he exerted was matched by his opponent, always keeping pace with him.

This was downright embarrassing!

Just as he was about to unleash all his power, he saw the opponent say, "Tubby, keep talking."

Zhao Ritian and Zhu Qi also noticed Lin Xi on this side.

They couldn’t believe that, despite not appearing older than them, Lin Xi could handle a world-class expert so easily — it was downright humiliating.

They suddenly felt they’d lived their lives like dogs.

Zhao Ritian, after a few seconds, replied, "However, when this man battled another organization, all his teammates died, leaving only him, and it seems this sort of thing has happened several times!"

"He seems to carry bad luck, anyone teaming with him ends up dead!"

"Also, there’s that Japanese guy, Yoshida Hideyuki, head of the Yamaguchi~~group, adept at ambush and assassination, occasionally stabbing people from behind. He’s reputed as the most despicable and insidious among the Peak Soldiers!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xi looked in the direction Zhao Ritian pointed, "Could this Martin be cursed?"

"Seems anyone teaming with him meets a bad end!"

Their dialogue was in English, so Hani’s five could understand.

Martin’s hand trembled, causing him to nearly lose his punch, and his face immediately turned extremely unsightly. He hated hearing about this all his life; you could say it’s the wound on his heart.

Except for Hani, the other two instantly distanced themselves a few steps from Martin.

Looks like they were very well aware of it.

In an instant, Zhao Tu and the elder’s pressure reduced slightly.

Observing this, Zhao Ritian and Zhu Qi noticed this point and immediately started teasing Martin again.

At first, a few words had some effect.

But afterwards, it was ineffective; seems Peak Soldier level people aren’t easily distracted.

"Bang!"

The elder with Zhu Qi inadvertently got hit in the chest by Hani, spitting a mouthful of blood, his aura dimming slightly.

Zhao Tu wasn’t relaxed either, with some scratches on his body.

As time passed, their situation became precarious, making Zhao Ritian and Zhu Qi nervous, unable to blink.

However, more anxious were Hani’s four, with three minutes passed already, if another three minutes passed without finishing them, they’d have to retreat.

"Didn’t Basajov say he’s Russia’s number one underground fighter? How come he’s so lousy? Can’t even deal with a kid?" O’Neal, nearly being kicked by Zhao Tu, complained.

Hani also frowned slightly; Martin had a terribly bad look because the other three maintained a slight distance from him, increasing his burden, making him the only injured among the four.

Yoshida Hideyuki was contributing the least, but he was more dangerous than the strongest Hani to Zhao Tu and the elder.

After all, this man’s ambushes were impossible to guard against.

Just as the four complained, Basajov’s body flew towards them.

The four immediately felt cheerful, assuming the young man had been finished by him.

Yet they hadn’t noticed Basajov’s large frame wasn’t moving on its own but being thrown over passively.

In the next moment, Yoshida Hideyuki’s brow furrowed, disappearing from his spot.

"Bang!" Basajov’s body crashed where Yoshida Hideyuki had been standing, remaining motionless, with a hint of disbelief on his face.

His chest was caved in.

Other areas were unscathed.

Looked like it was a fatal strike!

At this instant, Hani’s four and Zhao Tu’s two noticed something amiss, and all retreated a few steps, pausing the fight.

They looked towards Basajov, then everyone except Lin Xi couldn’t help but open their mouths wide, showing faces of disbelief similar to Basajov’s.

"Is he dead?"

They dared not believe, it was a Peak Soldier King, such a figure was killed within minutes.

It’s generally known that at their level, if confronted one-on-one, killing the opponent is extremely difficult.

For instance, the strongest Zhao Tu versus the weakest O’Neal, defeating him would be easy, but killing him, almost impossible!

But now, this scene left Hani’s four sensing a chill all over.

Meanwhile, Zhao Tu and the elder were internally thrilled, especially Zhao Ritian who chuckled, couldn’t help but say, "Saved!"
