Ace of the Dragon Division - Chapter 361
Chapter 361: Ambushed
– On the helicopter –
Xu Cheng was lying in a chair. His stomach wasn’t feeling very well, and his ears were ringing.
On the side, Bei Shan was massaging his hands and feet for him. Xu Cheng squinted his eyes and looked at those senior brothers of his. “Our brothers were all injured. If you guys don’t want to cooperate with me, then let’s just not go to the Li Family anymore.”
Bei Shan immediately nodded his head without hesitation. “Okay, we will listen to you. You are the big boss right now. Not even bombs can kill you, you are just too overpowered, you call the shots.”
Xu Cheng: “What plans do you guys have for the Li Family?”
The Ace of Hearts said worriedly, “I didn’t think that we would cause such a big commotion at the Murong Family. I think the Li Family probably already noticed it. I’m worried that if we go, we will be surrounded!”
Xu Cheng asked, “Do we have to fight tonight?”
The three Sky Kings nodded. “Even if we die, we have to give it our best shot. Tonight, either we die, or they die!”
Bei Shan sighed, “In fact, all of our identity data had been written off. In principle, we are already dead people.”
Xu Cheng suddenly seemed to have realized something.
“Are there still things that you are hiding from me?”
Bei Shan faintly said, “After the feudal dynasty era ended, there were reforms and developments that allowed those four families to become particularly wealthy. If we just let them gradually get stronger, it wouldn’t be different that letting them accumulate enough power and influence to effectively bring us back to the old dynasty days. In order to prevent such a thing from happening, someone must stand out. So, the Division Master did, and he secretly formed an independent organization, which upholds the mission of protecting the country and its principles. And what are the principles? It’s to not let the country get ruined by going back to the dynasty days and live the past all over again. And all of this has an obstacle, which is the behemoth families. Amongst them, these four are particularly threatening, and they have began to affect the country’s stability. That is also why the Dragon Division doesn’t take in members of the behemoth families or military families. We only take in grass-root talents that love this country. (TL Note: Grass-root are people with no backgrounds). With the Division Master getting older and older, we are also running out of time. Because you successfully took out the Ryong Family, this plan was officially activated, so now we will either succeed or die! Tonight, even if everyone dies, we still have to give this a shot.”
“The behemoth clans have deep foundations, wouldn’t those powerful figures who have good relationships with the clans cause trouble?” Xu Cheng asked curiously.
“That’s not within the scope of our responsibility. We are only responsible for the beheading operation.” Bei Shan said to Xu Cheng, “If this trip to the Li Family is successful, then the Dragon Division will be officially established as a system! Everyone’s position will be established, and our identities will be reinstated!”
Xu Cheng’s eyes brightened upon hearing this.
Just when they were about to arrive at the mountain area of the Li Family, a loud rumbling noise suddenly came.
A rocket directly destroyed one of the helicopters!
Bei Shan and the others were all shocked as they saw that a helicopter flying beside them had already exploded in mid air and the debris began falling down. Xu Cheng also immediately sat up.
“Airstrike! Jump!” The other senior brothers of the Dragon Division shouted.
There were 6 helicopters, and now that one exploded, the other members immediately prepared to jump.
Xu Cheng hurried over to the pilot and said, “Hurry and jump!”
The pilot glanced back at Xu Cheng and shook his head. “You jump first! I will fly deeper to attract their attention. Remember, we must succeed!”
Xu Cheng saw that he was also in the Dragon Division’s uniform, and on his back was written “Logistics”.
Boom! The helicopter Xu Cheng was on got hit too, and Xu Cheng jumped last minute, thrown out into the air by the current. Bei Shan already activated his wings and grabbed Xu Cheng as he was falling. Seeing him in a daze, he shouted at him, “Everyone’s prepared to sacrifice themselves, tonight will be a brutal battle! Junior Brother, if the other brothers and I unfortunately die, can you set up a tombstone for us?”
When Xu Cheng finally came to his senses, he directly fell into the branches with Bei Shan since they were too heavy for one pair of wings.
The forest immediately lit up with rifle barrels spitting fire as the Li Family guards began gunning the members down. The Li Family was already very prepared. When some of the Dragon Division members just got to land, they were shot dead by heavy machine guns. There were gunshots everywhere, and having just landed, Xu Cheng and Bei Shan’s eyelids both jumped, sensing danger.
“We are exposed!” Bei Shan anxiously said.
“Yeah, we caused such a commotion at the Murong Family that it’s impossible for the Li Family to not be prepared!” Xu Cheng said to Bei Shang, “According to the map, the southeast direction is away from the Li Family’s territory. You go there and wait, I will go and save the other brothers! We will regroup and deploy our plan.”
Bei Shan nodded. “You be careful!”
Xu Cheng jumped into the night like an assassin.
After leaving Bei Shan’s sight, Xu Cheng took off his clothes and put on just his gloves. In the pitch black night, not many could see the blade clearly, and even when they did, they would already be dead!
Xu Cheng entered stealth mode and roamed the forest.
Here, it seemed like there was no electricity besides inside the Li Manor. In the forest, other than the guards that were carrying torches can see, everywhere was pretty much pitch black.
His eyes with penetrating vision were fully open and he directly locked onto the locations of all the Dragon Division members, as well as where those guards where and what direction they were going after. Everything was in his vision.
His eyes flickered like that of a cat in the black night, and his invisible limbs were moving like a jungle cat, allowing him to run freely on land, treetops, and branches.
The J of Hearts landed on a tree and couldn’t break himself free from the paraglider that had caught onto the branches. Seeing the guards with guns and torches coming closer towards him, he began to panic.
At that moment, those guards felt like someone was walking in the bushes and on the branches behind them, causing them to keep on looking back. They didn’t see a thing, but just as they turned back around, a pair of daggers floated past them and slit their throats.
Xu Cheng said to the J of Hearts on the tree, “Go towards the southeast direction and meet up with Senior Brother Bei Shan!”
The J of Hearts didn’t see anyone, and although he heard the voice, he didn’t know where it was from. However, when he saw the four guards that were after him just falling to the ground dead, he was quite surprised.
Before leaving, Xu Cheng didn’t forget to remind him, “Change your clothes, get into that guard’s uniform.”
The J of Hearts still didn’t see anyone and could only nod blankly. “Oh… Okay.”
Xu Cheng already left and went after the next batch of guards.
He was a bit slow, or it could only be said that the next landing spot was quite far away. When he finally arrived, three brothers of the Dragon Division were already surrounded by armed guards.
The captain waved his hand, and before the three of them could fight back, they were shot dead!
Xu Cheng was already running over as fast as possible, yet he was still not fast enough to save those three brothers. He furiously shoved his blade into the captain’s neck, and with a violent slash to the side, the head fell to the ground. The others couldn’t see Xu Cheng at all, and Xu Cheng quickly beheaded them all.
When he went to check those three Dragon Division brothers’ injuries, he realized that they were already gone.
He really felt something bitter in his heart. Putting his hand over their faces, he lightly helped them closed their eyes.
