Dream Capture: I Can See Through All Secrets!

152: 152. All members killed?Meanwhile, in the brightly lit study within the main building of the estate.

Li Fang and Li Wanrong had just received a call from their subordinates at the Jinli Hotel, reporting that the target had mysteriously disappeared.

The two immediately frowned.

”How could Yu Tianxiong and the others disappear? Did they discover our operation and slip away early?”

Li Fang was puzzled, feeling vaguely that something was amiss.

Li Wanrong also felt the ominous premonition growing stronger, and she suddenly raised her voice: ”No... Father! What if they never intended to hide at all! What if they left the hotel through another route and are heading straight for... straight for us here?!”

Hearing this, Li Fang’s pupils suddenly constricted, but then he found it absurd: ”There are only seven of them! Do they really think they’re something special, daring to directly invade my territory? They’re seeking their own deaths!”

Although he said so, a strange palpitation made him stand up anyway, pick up the internal communicator, and order: ”All units pay attention! Everyone, give me your full attention! Strengthen patrols and vigilance! If there’s any anomaly, sound the alarm immediately!!”

With this order, the entire estate’s security level instantly rose to the highest.

The previously somewhat lax bodyguards immediately tensed up, and the patrol teams widened their eyes, inspecting every corner more carefully.

”Time for the hidden sentries to rotate... Hidden sentries? Respond if you hear... Hidden sentries?!”

The security captain in charge of communications called out several times into the microphone, but the communication channel was dead silent.

His heart sank, and he said: ”You few, come with me to the perimeter to check!”

He immediately led a team of men towards the hidden sentry point in the southeast direction of the estate.

When they saw the three bodies in the bushes, each with a small hole between their eyebrows, illuminated by the flashlight, everyone’s hair stood on end!

”Enemy attack!! Alarm! Sound the alarm!!” A shrill roar broke the silence of the night!

Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—!

The piercing alarm instantly echoed throughout the entire estate! All the lights blazed on! As if it were daytime!

Li Fang’s face changed in the study; he hadn’t expected his daughter to be right!

Yu Tianxiong had actually dared to come, and had silently eliminated his perimeter sentries!

After the shock, it was replaced by extreme rage and a sneer of provocation: ”Good! Very good! Coming to their own deaths! Hahahaha...”

He quickly walked to the huge mahogany bookshelf and pressed a button hidden behind a book.

”Click...”

The heavy bookshelf slowly moved to one side, revealing a wall behind it covered with various firearms: from pistols, submachine guns to assault rifles, everything was available, it was practically a small arsenal.

Li Fang took down two high-performance pistols, handed one to Li Wanrong, and then took out a palm-sized button controller from the innermost part of the shelf, a cruel and confident smile appearing on his face.

Li Wanrong was not worried; she knew her father had been operating in this estate for many years, embedding countless contingencies, including this one... ”Enemy detected! In the northern rockery area! Repeat, enemy is in the northern rockery!”

An urgent shout from security personnel came through the communicator, mixed with sporadic gunfire.

Li Fang’s sneer grew wider as he looked at the multiple buttons on the controller, then he suddenly pressed one of them!

Boom!!!!

A huge fireball suddenly lit up underground in the rockery area north of the estate, followed by a deafening explosion!

The powerful shockwave shattered the carefully built rockery, and countless rubble scattered like shrapnel!

”Hahahahahahaha!!!”

Li Fang laughed maniacally: ”Didn’t expect that, did you, Yu Tianxiong! I had already turned my territory into a fortress! Detonators and explosives are buried everywhere! You want to play infiltration and decapitation? I’ll make sure you die without a complete corpse!!”

He frantically pressed two more buttons in succession!

Boom! Boom!!

Two areas adjacent to the rockery also experienced violent explosions simultaneously!

Flames soared into the sky, and thick smoke billowed, giving the infiltrators no chance to react or escape!

The explosion covered a wide area and was incredibly powerful!

Li Fang roared frantically into the communicator, ”Everyone! Push forward! Confirm the bodies! Leave no one alive!!”

...The scorching heatwave, laden with dust, swept over, and in the thick smoke, Tian Peng only felt his vision blur, his ears filled with a heart-wrenching roar.

He felt his body was about to fall apart, struggling to stand up, but excruciating pain from his feet instantly made him collapse to the ground; looking down, everything below his knees was gone, only viscous blood continuously gushing out.

Tian Peng’s entire face was deathly pale, despairingly looking at the chaotic hellscape before him.

Xiao Dao, who was closest to the explosion’s epicenter, had his body twisted beyond recognition, his combat uniform torn to shreds, his exposed skin charred black, long since lifeless.

On the other side, Shan Bao and the Blacksmith were buried by the shattered rockery debris, blood constantly gushing from their mouths; he seemed to want to shout something, but could only make a gasping ”Ho... ho...” sound, his eyes beginning to lose focus.

Only Engineer Lei remained, stumbling to his feet, his eyes bloodshot, staring intently at his dead comrades, his eyes splitting with extreme shock and grief!

All of this happened in a flash.

From the explosion to the squad being almost completely wiped out, it was only a matter of seconds.

Tian Peng’s consciousness became hazy, his last thoughts filled with unwillingness and a hint of absurdity.

These battle-hardened warriors, to be buried in a foreign trap in such a humiliating way... The next moment, a clear ”Clang!” sounded.

The hellish scene before them began to peel away like a shattered mirror.

Everyone seemed to snap back to reality, jolting awake as if from a deep dream, gasping heavily, cold sweat instantly soaking their combat uniforms.

They were horrified to find that they were still crouching in the dense bushes on the outskirts of the estate, still holding the map bought from the black market!

The estate in their night vision goggles was still peaceful, patrol teams moving methodically, with no alarm, no explosion, no battle at all!

That utterly realistic death experience just now... had all disappeared?

”Just now... just now we...”

Tian Peng’s voice carried an imperceptible tremor as he subconsciously touched his perfectly intact legs.

”We also... felt it?” Shan Bao’s face was pale, looking at the others with lingering fear: ”I... I thought I was dead for sure...”

Xiao Dao vigorously shook his head, as if trying to shake off that terrifying memory: ”Impossible... That impact from the explosion... it was too real...”

”I should have died too...” The Blacksmith’s voice was dry.

Engineer Lei said nothing, only clenching his fists tightly, the emotions of despair and anger from earlier still lingering in his heart.

An extremely eerie atmosphere permeated the scene, making these battle-hardened, iron-willed warriors feel helpless for the first time, and a chill originating from the unknown.

That sensation of death was too real!

What on earth was going on here?
