Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 95: Chapter 94 [Chick Town, Begin Trading]

Ye Tianchen had avenged the comrades who died in the Black Mist Forest, fulfilling the promise he held in his heart. Throughout the entire Blood Demon Mercenary Group’s headquarters, a deathly silence reigned. Even as Ye Tianchen left indifferently, no one noticed that everyone inside the building was dead.

At that moment, Liu Rumei, Yong Chun Tai, Liu Yu, Jiang Meng, and Fei Yun sat in a Lincoln stretch limousine, heading for the trade location, a small town on the outskirts of Washington.

They did not bring too many people with them. Aside from Liu Rumei, who lacked martial skills, there were only four experts: Yong Chun Tai, Liu Yu, Jiang Meng, and Fei Yun. Facing the possibility of encountering powerful Superpower Users from the other side, ordinary bodyguards would be utterly useless. There was no point in letting these people make a senseless sacrifice.

”Miss, the helicopter has been arranged. As soon as we get the real information, we’ll leave immediately. We will fight to the death to escort you out,” Liu Yu said seriously to Liu Rumei.

Liu Rumei nodded. She understood that this was no joking matter, nor was it a time for rash actions. Everything—every life, including her own—meant nothing compared to the exchange of the secret information. If they could obtain the real secrets and bring them back to China, it would significantly enhance the nation’s military strength, which underscored its importance.

And Liu Yu’s words made it clear—if they managed to secure the information, the four of them would fight to the death to escort Liu Rumei to safety, even if it meant sacrificing themselves in the process, all to ensure she boarded the plane and the information was brought safely back to the country.

”Hmm, I wonder if Ye Tianchen will be able to make it here smoothly!” Liu Rumei said with a hint of worry.

Ye Tianchen had gone to hunt down Ghost Evil and Yin Sha, seemingly determined to eradicate the Blood Demon Mercenary Group entirely, venturing deep into dangerous territory, which naturally made Liu Rumei anxious. Even Liu Rumei herself didn’t realize that her entanglement with Ye Tianchen, which started the moment he sneakily watched her bathe over a year ago, had developed to this point. They had fought endlessly when they met again but now, she found herself gradually worrying about this scoundrel, perhaps it was simply fate.

”Miss Liu, there’s no need to worry about that kid; he’ll be fine,” Jiang Meng assured her with a smile.

”Yeah, his skills are beyond any of ours. He’ll surely succeed in eliminating the Blood Demon Mercenary Group,” Fei Yun chimed in confidently.

Liu Rumei nodded, the situation they were in was critical. If it weren’t for Ye Tianchen, she would have lost her life a long time ago, let alone complete any mission. Therefore, Liu Rumei did not wish for Ye Tianchen to come to harm, not just out of camaraderie, but because she harbored a slight affection for him. But above all, what mattered to her was that everyone would make it out alive and safe—that was her most sincere desire.

”Let’s review the plan once more to ensure the successful exchange of the information. As for Ye Tianchen, no one needs to worry about him!” Yong Chun Tai said with a smile.

According to the plan developed by Yong Chun Tai and others, the car would not enter the town upon arrival but would stop on the outskirts. They would proceed directly to the exchange location when the appointed time for the trade arrived. As soon as the trade was successful, Yong Chun Tai would escort Liu Rumei to leave first, while Liu Yu, Jiang Meng, and Fei Yun would cover their retreat, which left the greatest danger to these three.

”Yong Chun Tai, I have no objections to this plan,” Liu Yu stated firmly.

Yong Chun Tai nodded in acknowledgment of Liu Yu’s unwavering loyalty to the Liu family over the years. Liu Yu had always been at the forefront of every mission, and this time was no exception.

”I’ve decided to make a change. After Miss obtains the information, she will be escorted to the helicopter by Jiang and Yun, and Liu Yu and I will cover the rear,” Yong Chun Tai declared after glancing at Jiang Meng and Fei Yun.

”Yong Chun Tai, we’re not afraid of death. It’s our mission. Let’s stick to the original plan,” Jiang Meng quickly retorted.

”That’s right, Yong Chun Tai, don’t underestimate our Falcon Unit. What does death matter? We’ve got to take out a few Superpower Users along the way,” Fei Yun added with a laugh.

Seeing the determination of Jiang Meng and Fei Yun, Yong Chun Tai said no more. After all, they needed the greatest strength to ensure Liu Rumei’s safe passage to the helicopter; otherwise, all their efforts would be in vain.

By twelve at night, Liu Rumei and company had arrived at the small town named Chick. Before this, they had always kept the car outside the town, not entering, watching every movement within the town closely.

Chick was, in fact, just a development area in Washington’s suburbs. The town consisted of a single street, lined on both sides with small villas stretching for a few tens of thousands of meters, with the street itself about five meters wide—a very unique town indeed.

”Something’s not right. Why is there not a single person stirring in this town, not even one lit villa?” Liu Yu furrowed his brows and spoke with concern.

”This place hardly has any residents to begin with, as it was just developed. It’s obvious there will be an ambush. Everyone, be extra careful,” Liu Rumei advised.

To describe Liu Rumei and her party coming to M country for a covert data exchange as ’knowing the tiger is on the mountain yet still walking towards the mountain’ would be apt. They were aware of the impending ambush and the powerful superpower users they might encounter, but they still made the trip. The first reason was that China needed the confidential data badly; secondly, retreating in the face of difficulty is not the Chinese way of doing things.

”Let’s go, it’s time!” Yong Chun Tai glanced at his watch and said.

Liu Rumei, Liu Yu, Jiang Meng, and Fei Yun all nodded, and followed Yong Chun Tai. They walked behind him in line, entering the town of Chick.

Along the way, they didn’t encounter anyone. It could be said that this was a desolate town, beautifully built, with villas on both sides designed in the French architectural style.

The moment Yong Chun Tai and his party of five stepped into Chick town, an outsider within the villa at the end opened his eyes. This man was Eshi Shabi, who revealed a sinister smile and coldly said, ”I didn’t expect these clueless Easterners to really dare come. Proceed as planned, as soon as we get the data, kill them all.”

”Yes!”

Watching the superpower user leave, Eshi Shabi leisurely picked up a glass of red wine, leaned back on the sofa, and crossed his legs. He was very strong, truly very strong. He sensed the arrival of Yong Chun Tai and the others, and judging by their energy fluctuations, he assessed their capabilities. Even though Yong Chun Tai, Liu Yu, Jiang Meng, and Fei Yun were powerful, they weren’t to the extent that he needed to intervene. This assurance allowed Eshi Shabi to relax, unaware that Ye Tianchen had not yet arrived.

When Yong Chun Tai, Liu Rumei, Liu Yu, Jiang Meng, and Fei Yun reached the center of the town, three people approached them face on—one of them was Dr. Pinao, the one responsible for the data exchange from M country’s side, with two men in black suits beside him, unclear if they were bodyguards or superpower users.

”Dr. Pinao, I am Liu Rumei from China, in charge of the data exchange this time,” Liu Rumei approached with a smile and said.

”Oh, Eastern women really are beautiful.” Dr. Pinao was over seventy, his hair all gone, yet his eyes lecherously fixated on Liu Rumei as he spoke.

”Thanks for the compliment. Your Chinese is not very good; you could learn well in our China,” Liu Rumei said with a smile.

”I will definitely visit if I have the chance. Shall we start the exchange now?” Dr. Pinao suggested.

Liu Rumei nodded and from her clothes, she took out a delicate chip containing developmental data on a heavy weapon in China, while Dr. Pinao too produced a chip, this one about M country’s formidable nuclear technology. Although it was only a small portion, it was the part missing for China, hence incredibly crucial.

As she received the chip from Dr. Pinao, Liu Rumei took out her mini computer, quickly inserted the chip, and began to read the nuclear technology secrets within, carefully verifying the data. Yong Chun Tai and others were visibly nervous until Liu Rumei finally nodded, indicating no issues, and everyone sighed in relief, now only to see if they could leave unharmed.

”It’s such an honor to meet a beautiful Eastern lady like you. Would you be interested in having a drink?” Dr. Pinao continued staring with lustful eyes and asked in his broken Chinese, smiling.

”Thank you for your kind offer, Doctor. I have some matters to attend to, so I must be going. Pleasure doing business,” Liu Rumei said with a smile.

”Alright, I hope we can meet again.”

The exchange went relatively successfully without any unforeseen events, but this didn’t put Yong Chun Tai and his companions at ease. On the contrary, it made them more vigilant. This was top-secret nuclear technology data not obtainable by money alone. If the other party did not strike during the exchange, it meant they had absolute confidence that the data would not leave with them.

”Stick to the plan, no matter what happens, escort Miss Liu to safety first,” Yong Chun Tai said in a deep voice.

”Yes!” Liu Yu, Jiang Meng, and Fei Yun also softly nodded in response.

Yong Chun Tai took the lead, protecting Liu Rumei. Just as they had taken a few steps forward, four figures suddenly appeared in front of them, all dressed in black night clothes, with only their eyes visible and staring at them.

”Kill!”

At that signal, the three beside the leader charged toward Yong Chun Tai and the others—swift, decisive, without any superfluity, intending to kill Liu Rumei and her companions so they couldn’t make it back to China.(To be continued.
