Chapter 386: Fight in the Old City! (4)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

What?

Zhao Yu was startled. A team comprised entirely of enhancers was no small matter!

As Zhao Yu finally taking it seriously, Han Xiao Xiao continued: “The Lion Mercenary Group is a significant force in Black Stone City, with at least one hundred and fifty enhancers in their team, and more than a thousand in logistics and firepower support…”

“Their missions are diverse, ranging from helping others attack towns to assisting in defending territories…”

“They also help some nobles search for things in the old cities…”

“Then why do they need to cooperate with us?” Zhao Yu asked.

Han Xiao Xiao explained: “That’s because the Lion Mercenary Group rarely deploys its entire force for a mission…”

“Tasks that require the full mobilization of the Lion Mercenary Group are rare, almost never encountered…”

“So, those who came this time are probably from a combat team under the Lion Mercenary Group…”

“I see!”

It was essentially enhancers affiliated with the Lion Mercenary Group.

On the other side, Luo Bing breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the Lion Mercenary Group had sent only five people.

Her tone in the negotiations gradually became more assertive.

“You’re a third-tier enhancer?!” The man’s initial arrogance dissipated upon learning of Luo Bing’s status, and he began to show her respect.

“Indeed!”

Luo Bing replied indifferently.

Luo Bing was naturally aware of the Lion Mercenary Group’s reputation and initially intimidated by their name.

However, she was a third-tier enhancer herself. If she wished, she could have integrated her team into the Lion Mercenary Group or some other more famous mercenary group, and even obtained a leading position and resources. Therefore, the man didn’t dare to be arrogant and honestly laid out their plan.

It wasn’t much of a plan, just the usual strategy of luring the mutants away from the bridge and then crossing it quickly.

This time, it involved five teams, each contributing at least one person.

they discussed where their respective agile enhancers should lure the mutants away.

Zhao Yu didn’t participate in the discussion but noticed Han Xiao Xiao’s gradually relaxed.

Luo Bing must have secured a favorable position for her.

After a short while, the negotiations ended, and the man left satisfied.

As the organizers, the Lion Mercenary Group certainly wouldn’t put their own people in the most dangerous positions.

After he left, Luo Bing shared the details of the negotiation.

“There are five teams around, and the leaders are just second-tier enhancers. I’m the strongest, so I got the best position…”

She informed Han Xiao Xiao about the position details.

Afterward, she led Zhao Yu and the others to the prearranged location.

“Now we just wait…” Han Xiao Xiao had already left, and Luo Bing was staying beside Zhao Yu, briefly introduced the situation.

However, she turned to look at the soldiers, filled with astonishment.

Since entering the city, she noticed that these soldiers had never spoken a word.

In such an environment, soldiers who remain silent and show no signs of tension are extremely frightening.

She recalled the soldiers in Black Stone City; none of those she had seen seemed as formidable as Zhao Yu’s men.

Elite!

Luo Bing predicted that the soldiers accompanying Zhao Yu as his subordinates, must be the elite of the elite.

Fortunately, they were on the side of her!

Luo Bing smiled, unconcerned about Zhao Yu’s purpose for entering the city and going to the Third Ring. After all, her task was simply to escort them there.

With the guarantee from Peace Town, even if Zhao Yu and his team died in the old city, their vehicles and weapons left in their rooms could be sold to fulfill the remaining transaction.

“Boom boom boom—!”

Before she could ponder further, the noise from a distance signaled that the action had begun.

Zhao Yu curiously observed the situation.

Three hundred mutants were led away by an enhancer, and at a crossroads, another enhancer diverted them onto another street.

Luo Bing explained, “Luring the mutants, especially in a relay like this, is safest for those who go last…”

“The mutants tend to focus on the first person, so the first one is the most dangerous and hardest to escape…”

Zhao Yu nodded.

After all, the further back in the sequence, the fewer mutants were diverted, naturally reducing the danger.

As the two men split and led the mutants down two separate streets, Zhao Yu could no longer see what was happening behind them.

However, he could hear the mutants’ noises growing fainter.

After a while, Zhao Yu saw a group of four people appearing on the street, rushing towards the bridge.

“Let’s go!”

Luo Bing led Zhao Yu and the others to follow.

As everyone reached the bridge, several teams converged.

The Lion Mercenary Group had no financiers with them, while others, like Luo Bing’s team, had some outsiders.

But none of the teams were like theirs, with around twenty fully armed people.

The accompanying teams privately speculated, wondering what Zhao Yu and his team intended to do with their weapons in the city.

“Are they planning to attack the mutant beasts?!”

“Unlikely, mutant beasts are not something a few people can handle!”

“Or maybe, radiation beasts?!”

No one dared to questioned them. After all, Zhao Yu’s group were not something these scattered combat teams could afford to mess with..
