Chapter 1219
Have you ever acted in a romance film?
The mercenaries below had no time to find cover or even take effective evasive action before they were hit by precise fire from their blind spots, screaming as they fell to the ground.
In just a few seconds, more than a dozen elite mercenaries were killed on the beach, their blood staining the white sand.
Luo Fei fell from a height of more than ten meters, his legs landing firmly on the ground with a dull thud. The powerful impact even created two shallow footprints in the ground, but he himself was unharmed due to his super physique.
Li Xue, gun in hand, quickly ran to Luo Fei's side. Looking at the scene before her, which resembled a battlefield, and then at Luo Fei beside her, whose breathing was steady as if he had only done something insignificant, the shock in her eyes gradually turned into a deep awe. She even began to feel a sense of worry for the island's master, the mysterious commander.
Luo Fei, leading Li Xue, quickly advanced along the only gravel road leading from the dock to the depths of the island. Along the way, they encountered two more mercenary squads that had rushed to the scene after hearing the news, but Luo Fei swiftly dealt with them both with lightning speed, barely slowing them down.
"How many people are there on this island normally?" Luo Fei asked Li Xue beside him as they moved quickly.
Li Xue answered breathlessly, "Normally... when there are no missions, most of the top ten assassins stay on the island. But the other assassins, apart from those who are undergoing training, are basically hiding in various parts of Great Xia, living as ordinary people."
The island is primarily garrisoned by mercenaries responsible for security, numbering around fifty. Most are internationally wanted criminals, the commander's most loyal henchmen, and they almost never leave the island. There are also about thirty staff members responsible for logistics, training, and intelligence processing… and… thirty-four orphans undergoing training. In total, the island has about one hundred people.
As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Fei's extraordinary senses suddenly detected an extremely subtle yet deadly danger signal! It was the sound of a high-speed rotating motor heating up and the faint rustling of metal chains rubbing together!
"Watch out!" Luo Fei shouted, almost instinctively lunging towards Li Xue beside him, pulling her tightly into his arms, and the two of them rolled towards a low-lying area to the side!
Li Xue was caught off guard and was tightly embraced by a strong man. Their bodies were pressed together, and they rolled around on the ground. She could even smell the faint smell of sweat and gunpowder on Luo Fei's body, and her heart began to pound uncontrollably.
The very next second after they rolled away from their original spot, a terrifying, tearing sound like ripping cloth suddenly erupted!
Da da da da da da! ! !
The deafeningly dense and almost continuous barrage of heavy gunfire erupted! A huge rock behind where they had just been standing was instantly shattered by the violent metal storm, sending debris flying and dust billowing everywhere!
Gatling gun!
On a sturdy bunker high on the island, a multi-barreled heavy machine gun was spitting out deadly flames, unleashing hundreds of bullets per second, creating a storm of deathly metal that completely blocked their previous path!
The piercing alarm sounded throughout the island, adding to the tense atmosphere.
Luo Fei, carrying Li Xue, used the momentum to roll behind a huge rock, temporarily avoiding the deadly direct bullets. However, the heavy machine gun bullets continued to pound the rock's surface, causing it to crack and splinter, clearly indicating that it wouldn't last much longer.
"Damn it! It's a fixed firing point on the watchtower!" Luo Fei spat out a mouthful of sand-laden saliva, his eyes sharply observing the source of the bullets. Even with his super reflexes, he wouldn't dare to recklessly charge into this level of metal storm.
The Gatling gun fired relentlessly for nearly a minute. Its massive barrel turned red-hot from the high-speed fire, and the rate of fire finally had to slow down, resulting in a brief lull in the firing—it needed to cool down!
"Now! Hide!" Luo Fei roared at Li Xue, then suddenly pushed off with his feet!
Super Jump!
Boom! The ground beneath his feet suddenly exploded, and he shot into the sky like a cannonball, leaping nearly fifteen meters into the air, tracing an astonishing parabola as he hurtled straight toward the watchtower!
The mercenaries operating the heavy machine gun and those on observation inside the blockhouse were all stunned when they saw someone jump so high and fly directly towards them. They were so dumbfounded that they forgot to do anything!
Luo Fei adjusted his posture in the air and swooped down like a hawk hunting its prey, crashing heavily onto the platform on top of the watchtower. The solid concrete platform was cracked in a spiderweb pattern by his impact!
But he didn't stop. Using the force of his fall, he sprang up again, this time jumping even higher, and landed directly in front of the watchtower's firing port!
The machine gunner, who had just stopped firing and was frantically preparing to change the barrel, had no time to react before Luo Fei, who had descended from the sky, kicked him hard in the chest!
Crack! A sickening sound of bones breaking rang out! The burly machine gunner didn't even have time to scream before he was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into the inner wall of the bunker and dying instantly!
"Shoot! Kill him!" The other mercenaries guarding the pillbox finally reacted and raised their rifles in terror.
But Luo Fei was even faster! The moment he landed, he picked up an AK47 assault rifle that had fallen to the ground, and without even looking at it, he pulled the trigger with his extraordinary reflexes and gun sense!
boom!boom!boom!boom!
With a few precise shots, the remaining four mercenaries inside the bunker fell to the ground, each with a bloody hole between their eyebrows.
Having eliminated the threat of the pillbox, Luo Fei picked up two fully loaded AK47s and leaped directly from the seven- or eight-meter-high pillbox, landing steadily. He heard hurried and chaotic footsteps coming from the woods ahead, indicating that reinforcements were arriving. He immediately slipped behind a pile of debris and gave a concealment signal to Li Xue, who was anxiously waiting below.
Soon, a dozen mercenaries dressed in camouflage and fully armed rushed out from the path in the woods, searching cautiously.
"Take care of yourself!" Luo Fei shouted to Li Xue, then charged out from behind the cover like a cheetah!
Super speed start! His figure left afterimages in the air, and the AK47 in his hand spat out tongues of fire!
boom!boom!boom!boom!
He didn't need to aim deliberately; relying entirely on combat instinct and extraordinary reflexes, he fired continuously in bursts while moving at high speed! Every bullet struck a mercenary's head with perfect accuracy!
The mercenaries didn't even get a clear look at the newcomers before they fell to the ground! In just over ten seconds, the entire squad of a dozen men was wiped out on the spot, with not a single survivor!
Li Xue held the gun, but didn't even find an opportunity to fire. She watched as Luo Fei easily wiped out an entire elite squad like a war god, and was once again utterly shocked.
Suddenly, Luo Fei abruptly turned his gun and aimed it at Li Xue!
Li Xue's pupils contracted sharply; she was completely caught off guard!
boom!
The gunshot rang almost right next to her ear! The scorching heat and the deafening sound caused her ears to ring instantly!
She turned her head stiffly and saw a mercenary who had somehow crept out from the bushes to the side, preparing to ambush her with a gun. He had a bloody hole in his forehead and fell straight down. Luo Fei's shot had saved her.
"Over there...over there!" Li Xue, still shaken, suddenly remembered the important matter and pointed to the central area of the island. "The place where Zi Xuan is being held is in that three-story building over there! The underground prison!" Luo Fei looked in the direction she pointed and indeed saw a gray-white three-story reinforced concrete building, which looked quite sturdy. On the rooftop platform, a dark green military helicopter was parked.
Around the building, there were some low bungalows, and some children who looked to be only teenagers were timidly peeking out from behind the windows, their faces filled with fear and confusion.
“Those are the orphans who are undergoing training…” Li Xue whispered.
Luo Fei's gaze lingered on the group of children for a moment, a fleeting, complex emotion flashing across his face. But saving Han Zixuan was his top priority; he had no time for anything else. He began to sprint towards the three-story building at full speed!
Meanwhile, off the coast of Alcatraz, a high-speed speedboat was cutting through the waves. Chen Xuanran and the members of the special task force on board could clearly hear the intense gunfire and piercing alarms from the island.
"The fighting has started! They've already exchanged fire!" Wu Peixiong shouted anxiously.
Chen Xuanran's heart leaped into his throat, his face turned pale, and he gripped the gunwale tightly: "Faster! Faster! Yifan! Full speed ahead!"
"Understood!" Chen Yifan, who was in charge of driving the speedboat, pushed the accelerator to the floor. The speedboat engine roared violently, and the speed increased again, speeding towards the center of the island where the gunfire was most intense!
Luo Fei, leading Li Xue, quickly approached the three-story building where Han Zixuan was being held. However, just a few dozen meters from the building's entrance, the metal doors suddenly opened inward, and several figures walked out unhurriedly.
The way these people walked and their expressions were completely different from the mercenaries they had encountered before. They showed no signs of tension or vigilance; on the contrary, they all appeared calm and relaxed, walking with leisurely ease, as if they were not facing intruders but taking a stroll in their own backyard.
Li Xue's expression changed drastically. She grabbed Luo Fei's arm abruptly, her voice filled with barely suppressed tension and fear: "Stop! It's them... Blueberry's other nine assassins... they've all come out!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Fei immediately stopped and sharply scanned the nine people in front of him. He casually tossed the AK47 rifle he had just captured onto the ground; against opponents of this caliber, conventional firearms were of little use.
These nine people, each with a different appearance and temperament, all exude a chilling aura of danger.
Leading the way was a red-haired girl named Tianji, dressed in a modified short skirt, a traditional Japanese garment, and carrying an antique blue longsword. Luo Fei felt her appearance was somewhat familiar; he seemed to have seen her on some unusual websites.
Following closely behind was a stunningly beautiful woman in a black cropped leather jacket with short, refreshing hair, whose aura resembled that of a female character from a classic anime—it was none other than Number 18.
Following behind number 18 was a boy who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing loose sportswear, but with unusually fierce eyes—a child.
Beside the child was a woman wearing a high-slit purple cheongsam, with an exaggeratedly hot figure and a bewitching appearance. Her curves were even more stunning than Chen Xuanran's—Blood Rose.
Beside Blood Rose stood a lean, muscular man wearing a black elastic vest, with ferocious five-clawed blue dragons tattooed on his arms, his eyes sharp as an eagle's—Blue Dragon.
Beside Qinglong stood a middle-aged man dressed in camouflage combat uniform, with a burly, bear-like build, a scar on his face, and a fierce aura—Po Jun.
Beside Po Jun was a thin, old man wearing an old-fashioned Zhongshan suit and glasses, who looked like a junior high school homeroom teacher. But his eyes, which he occasionally opened, gleamed with a chilling light—Teacher Huang.
Beside Teacher Huang was a young man wearing a plaid shirt and black-rimmed glasses, exuding an air of scholarly refinement and tech geekiness; he looked like a programmer—Wuming.
Standing at the very back was a giant as big as a small mountain! He was definitely over two meters tall, his muscles were as bulging as rocks, and his specially made black bodysuit was stretched to the point of almost bursting. Just standing there brought a huge sense of oppression—Frieza.
Of the nine people, only Tianji was carrying a longsword; the rest were all unarmed. After they left the building, they naturally dispersed, forming a semi-circular barrier that blocked Luo Fei's path to the building.
They stood with their arms crossed, hands in their pockets, or heads tilted, each striking a seemingly casual yet oppressive pose, their eyes uniformly filled with undisguised contempt and disdain, as if looking at a pitiful prey that had strayed into the den of a wild beast.
Although there was no sound at the scene, an invisible, suffocating killing intent permeated the air as if it were real, and even the air seemed to freeze. Li Xue, standing behind Luo Fei, was even more nervous than Luo Fei, who was facing the nine assassins head-on, and her breathing became difficult.
After a brief silence, Tianji, ranked ninth, stepped forward first. Looking at Luo Fei, she asked in impeccable Mandarin, "You're Luo Fei? The one who caused our organization so many losses?"
Luo Fei didn't answer her question. Instead, he looked her up and down, his brows furrowing slightly. Suddenly, he asked, "Have we met somewhere before? Have you acted in...adult films? What's the catalog number?"
Upon hearing this, Tianji's feigned composure froze instantly, turning ashen, her eyes blazing with a mixture of shame and indignation: "Shameless scoundrel! You're asking for death!"
With a furious shout, she leaped lightly into the air, the seemingly ancient Qinggang sword in her hand flashing a sharp, cold light as it slashed down towards Luo Fei's head at incredible speed! The wind howled as the sword struck, demonstrating her extremely solid swordsmanship!
Luo Fei's eyes narrowed, and his super reflexes activated instantly! Just as the sword was about to strike, his body tilted slightly to the right by a hair's breadth! (End of Chapter)
