Chapter 826: The average Ren Xiaosu


To be honest, T5081 felt his scalp go numb at this moment. Everything he had planned to do was already done by someone else. Moreover, he was still unable to figure out where the other party was hiding, how many people they had, the number of supernatural beings among them, and what they were planning.


This feeling was not good at all. In fact, it was really strange. Someone had clearly helped him do what he wanted to do, yet he could not feel happy about it!


“Sir, what should we do now?” a T4 combatant asked weakly over the radio.


The aftermath of the inmates’ release from the two prisons was starting to tire the Kong Consortium out. As the Pyro Company did not want to go head-on against the garrison troops, it suddenly felt like they had nothing better to do.


In their plan, they were prepared to face death this time when they came to Stronghold 31 for their mission.


Moreover, their mission objectives were supposed to be executed one right after another, leaving them with no chance to catch their breaths. Every member of the Pyro Company here was prepared to go all out, but in the end, there was nothing for them to do at all.


Who could they go and reason with in this case?!


T5081 said, “No wonder we suddenly encountered an ambush on the rooftops after entering the stronghold. But we realized later that the Kong Consortium did not know we were coming, so that ambush on the rooftops was actually not targeted at us….”


“Then did we take the bullet for someone else?” a T4 combatant wondered.


“Not exactly.” T5081 sighed and said, “Did you guys realize that when we broke through the northern defensive line, the Kong Consortium’s garrison troops seemed to be really slow to react and did not attack us with all their might right away? It felt like their reactions were somewhat delayed.”


“It did feel like that. Some of the tactical troops did not seem to be fully prepared.”


“I understand what happened now.” T5081 said, “It’s because the garrison troops of the Kong Consortium were alerted to other disturbances in the stronghold and were planning to rush over to reinforce their fellow troops. As a result, that helped us disperse their forces.”


Actually, even Ren Xiaosu himself did not know that he had actually contributed somewhat to the destruction of the stronghold.


In his opinion, the destruction of the stronghold this time was entirely caused by the Pyro Company and had nothing to do with him at all. Although he also wanted to demolish the stronghold, wasn’t the Pyro Company one step ahead of him?


Therefore, he was not going to be held responsible for it this time.


T5081 pondered things for a moment before saying, “Let’s go. Since the objective has been accomplished and the stronghold is in chaos, we’ll just directly attack and take out Kong Erdong!”


Although their operation this time was called a decapitation strike, it was actually referring to destroying Stronghold 31 rather than killing Kong Erdong.


On one hand, there was no need to kill him. Even if Kong Erdong were to survive until the Pyro Company’s main forces arrived, there would be nothing he could do. It would also be too troublesome since if they went straight for Kong Erdong, the garrison troops would definitely be guarding him closely. Although the Pyro Company’s special forces were really strong, they still couldn’t take on a reinforced brigade.


But now… they really had nothing better left to do!


T5081 thought that since there was nothing to do, why not just go and kill Kong Erdong instead!


In any case, the garrison troops were already scattered all over the place.


At this moment, all of the fleeing residents were trying their best to escape southwards due to the battle going on in the northern part of the stronghold. As a result, Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin’s off-road vehicle nearly got stuck on the road.


“After we pick up Wang Jing and the others, let’s head straight west. I’ll blow up the city gate once we get there. We can’t escape from the southern gate anymore. I’m afraid that a large number of escapees will be causing a jam over there.” Ren Xiaosu said, “But it’s a pity that we won’t have a chance to kill Kong Erdong anymore.”


Yang Xiaojin nodded. She looked out of the car window at the escapees fleeing amid the flames. “Let’s put the matter of Kong Erdong aside for now. The outcome that Wang Shengzhi is seeking has already been achieved. It doesn’t matter if Kong Erdong dies or not. Besides, I believe that Wang Shengzhi will definitely be very surprised.”


Based on Wang Shengzhi’s plan, it would take a long time for the Kong Consortium to fall into chaos after Kong Erdong was killed. But things were different now. They had skipped a step and reached the end goal.


Speaking of which, this could be considered a one-stop service, and it so happened that Ren Xiaosu was the service provider.


When the off-road vehicle drove into the residential neighborhood, Ren Xiaosu saw the bodies of rioters hanging at the entrance. Blood was dripping from them. It was an extremely terrifying sight.


“This should be the work of Wang Run and his men to warn the other rioters.” Ren Xiaosu guessed that other than Wang Run and his men, no one else in the vicinity would be so ruthless.


When the vehicle came to a stop at the entrance of the villa, Ren Xiaosu shouted inside, “Don’t shoot! It’s me!”


Surprised voices rang out from the villa. “Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin are back!”


Wang Jing opened the door and carefully looked at Ren Xiaosu. He did not ask where he had been and immediately checked to see if he was alright. “Are you injured?”


“No.” Ren Xiaosu chuckled and said, “About that… Yang Xiaojin and I just went out for a stroll. We didn’t expect something like this to happen all of a sudden. As a result, we were stuck outside, and it took a long time to find our way back.”


Everyone from the Trinity Institute had looks of disbelief on their faces, but no one knew how to refute his explanation.


When Ren Xiaosu did not see Wang Run around, he looked at Wang Jing and asked, “By the way… didn’t someone come and protect all y’all?”


“Yes, but they left after receiving an order.” Wang Jing said, “They… were they sent here by you?”


“Hahaha,” Ren Xiaosu laughed awkwardly. “How could that be? I only found out by chance when I encountered them earlier. They said that they were coming here to protect you, Elder Wang. Look, everyone, pack up your belongings and leave this place quickly. Stronghold 31 is done for. If we don’t leave now, we’ll be buried along with this stronghold.”


Ren Xiaosu then realized the people from the Trinity Institute had already packed their luggage and loaded it into the vehicles. After Ren Xiaosu distributed a walkie-talkie to each vehicle, the convoy immediately set off.


The convoy drove all the way west. The atmosphere in the vehicles was extremely silent.


All of a sudden, Liang Ce asked, “Ren Xiaosu, you—”


“I didn’t do it! I’m just a normal cardiac surgeon!” Ren Xiaosu denied.


“…I haven’t even asked anything yet.”


But at this moment, a row of black vehicles passed by the Trinity Institute’s convoy. Liang Ce was about to say something when he saw Ren Xiaosu staring intently at the passing convoy.


That convoy of black vehicles was heading east at a very fast speed. It looked like they were escaping.


Ren Xiaosu had chosen to head west because that was where the Wang Consortium was. However, other people might not choose to flee in that direction. If they were from the Kong Consortium, escaping east would be the highest priority, because there was another Kong Consortium stronghold 120 kilometers to the east.


Ren Xiaosu broke the silence by saying to Yang Xiaojin, “Don’t y’all slow down. I’m heading out for a while.”


Yang Xiaojin asked thoughtfully, “Kong Erdong?”


“That’s right, that was his license plate. I would guess that he doesn’t intend to go down with Stronghold 31. He’s already fleeing!” With that, Ren Xiaosu opened the door and jumped out of the vehicle. He then ran all the way towards Kong Erdong’s convoy.


In the vehicles at the back of the Trinity Institute convoy, everyone looked silently at Ren Xiaosu who had just gone past them.


Liang Ce was speechless. Didn’t he just say he was just a normal cardiac surgeon?!
