Chapter 71 Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain
Just as the blood-red rose petals were about to rain down on Su Qian, a dark figure shot out from the shadows beside him like lightning.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Zheng Zhongshan transformed into Kaixa! He was as fast as the wind, and in the blink of an eye, he had already rushed over.
As Zheng Zhongshan ran, he raised the Kaixa bladed gun in his hand and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
In an instant, beams of golden light shot out, accurately meeting the oncoming rose petals.
With a series of crisp cracking sounds, all the incoming rose petals were shattered in mid-air and fluttered down like a dazzling but fleeting rain of flowers.
After successfully defusing the crisis, Zheng Zhongshan paused and came to a steady stop behind Su Qian.
Immediately afterwards, he swiftly reached into his belt, grabbed Kaixa's phone, and deftly pressed a series of number buttons:
[1! 0! 6!]
Kaixa's phone was immediately switched to bombing mode.
Without the slightest hesitation, Zheng Zhongshan decisively raised his arm and pointed the gun at the back of a large tree not far away.
Then, he pulled the trigger repeatedly, and one after another, violent light bullets streaked across the sky like meteors, carrying terrifying photon energy straight toward the target.
"Boom!" With a deafening roar, the thick tree shook violently under the intense bombardment of the light bullets.
In just a few seconds, the tree trunk could not withstand the enormous force and broke in two.
The tree crown, having lost its support, crashed down, leaning against the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
In an instant, the surroundings became hazy and unclear, and the thick smoke obscured the view.
Immediately, Su Qian and Zheng Zhongshan did not panic. They stood back to back, quietly keeping their eyes fixed on Lao Hao and the smoke-filled area, ready for battle.
Before long, the smoke that filled the surroundings gradually dissipated.
Guan Cheng (Rose Orphnoch) clapped his hands with a smile and strolled leisurely toward Lao Hao, saying, "Truly worthy of being the Special Affairs Bureau's renowned ace, Kaixa!"
"I am truly impressed by your keen insight in being able to determine your location so quickly."
Su Qian and Zheng Zhongshan, standing to the side, kept their eyes fixed on the Rose Orphino who had suddenly appeared before them.
The two remained silent, but after exchanging a glance, they made a decision without hesitation to attack him directly.
However, at this moment, Guan Cheng continued to speak slowly to Su Qian and Zheng Zhongshan: "Although this sneak attack failed, seeing the two of you here means that my purpose in coming here today has been basically achieved."
His words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up ripples in the hearts of Su Qian and his companion.
Upon hearing this, Su Qian and Zheng Zhongshan felt a chill run down their spines. They exchanged a glance, and almost simultaneously, four words flashed through their minds: "Luring the tiger away from the mountain!"
Just as Zheng Zhongshan was about to send a signal to his teammates, bursts of fierce fighting suddenly came from the direction of the Leo cavalry camp on the outskirts of the jungle.
Guan Cheng, still holding a delicate rose, said in a flippant tone, "Hehe, now that I have told you the whole plan, how could I let you leave unscathed?"
So, you two should really consider your own situation first.
In the blink of an eye, Guan Cheng vanished from his spot without a trace, like a ghost.
At the same time, Lao Hao, without hesitation, charged straight at Su Qian and Zheng Zhongshan with the Fakir horn in hand.
Seeing this, Su Qian showed no intention of backing down. After exchanging a nod with Zheng Zhongshan, he pushed off with his feet and charged forward without hesitation.
On the other side, Zheng Zhongshan stood firmly in place, his sharp eyes constantly scanning the surrounding environment.
Because both he and Su Qian knew very well that Guan Cheng would not leave so easily; he must be hiding somewhere nearby, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
It was with this in mind that Su Qian resolutely took the initiative to attack and confront the formidable Lao Hao.
In this way, they could both attract Lao Hao's attention and prevent him from interfering with Zheng Zhongshan.
Time ticked by, and just as everyone was on edge, Guan Xiang suddenly appeared behind Zheng Zhongshan like a ghost.
Without saying a word, he raised his right hand, and a dazzling circular light bullet shot straight towards Zheng Zhongshan's back with lightning speed.
However, Zheng Zhongshan was no ordinary person. Despite having his back to the enemy, he still managed to detect the surging energy fluctuations behind him immediately thanks to his keen senses.
He then dodged and rolled to the side, successfully avoiding Guan Cheng's sudden attack.
After narrowly dodging the light blast, Zheng Zhongshan immediately steadied himself and began to move both hands simultaneously.
With his left hand gripping the Kaixa blade gun and his right hand operating the Kaixa phone, he unleashed a barrage of incredibly powerful explosive light projectiles that hurtled towards Guan Cheng like shooting stars.
Just as these explosive light projectiles were about to hit their target, something unexpected happened.
Guan Cheng slowly raised his right arm and extended his right hand.
In an instant, an invisible and powerful psychic force surged from his palm, forcefully freezing the rapidly approaching explosive light bullets in mid-air.
Then, Guan Cheng gently waved his arm, and the explosive light bullets that were originally fixed in mid-air seemed to be drawn, changing their direction and rushing towards the open ground to the side, exploding with a bang and raising a cloud of dust.
Upon seeing the scene before him, Zheng Zhongshan's eyes narrowed, and he quickly tucked the Kaixa phone back into his belt.
He then gripped the Kaixa bladed spear tightly and lunged at Guan Cheng.
……
Meanwhile, at the Special Affairs Bureau base in Harbin, the atmosphere was extremely tense.
Inside the command center, the liaison officer anxiously kept calling Zheng Zhongshan and Su Qian through the communication equipment, but all he received was silence; he never received even the slightest reply.
In the center of the spacious command room, Director Zhong sat solemnly, without uttering a word, like a statue.
Not long after, a soft sound of footsteps broke the silence.
Secretary He Chengchou led Hong Tao quickly into the command room.
Upon seeing Hong Tao arrive, Director Zhong went straight up to him and said, "Dr. Hong, I'm sure Secretary He has already explained the details to you."
Director Zhong continued, "The most pressing issue right now is that ten minutes ago, the command center suddenly lost all contact with Su Qian and his colleague."
Not only that, but the other two Leo cavalry squads have also disappeared without a trace.
