Chapter 403 Chapter 403: 292, Forever Young
"Where are you two headed?"
"Master, Weiyang Lake Park, thank you."
Through the Bluetooth earpiece, Huan Yu clearly heard the conversation between Qing Chen and the taxi driver, and for a moment, she was so stunned that she didn't know what to say.
Actually taking a taxi? In such a tense atmosphere, you just hail a cab and run off?
This is completely lacking in poetic flair!
By the time Huan Yu thought of something to say, the connection had already been cut off.
However, during Qing Chen's conversation with the taxi driver, she did catch a piece of information.
There wasn't just one person getting into the car, but "two."
Moreover, the precision of Qing Chen choosing Weiyang Lake Park as the battleground during broad daylight was as if it had been pre-decided.
"There must be someone who has been to Xian City in Bright Daylight, Qing Chen indeed has someone by his side who's very familiar with Xian City," Huan Yu murmured analytically.
After all, who would choose an unfamiliar place as a battlefield?
"Who has been to Weiyang Lake Park?" Huan Yu switched the whole communication system to another channel and removed the Bluetooth earpiece potentially in Qing Chen's possession from the communication list: "What's at Weiyang Lake Park?"
Someone replied, "There's Weiyang Lake."
Huan Yu raised her eyebrows: "…Who said that, Zhang San, slap him."
On Feng City's Fifth Avenue, Zhang San emotionlessly slapped a young man beside him.
Zhang San said, "Boss, I've been there. The park covers nearly a thousand acres, and the lake itself is over four hundred acres. There are many woods in the park, all built around Weiyang Lake."
Huan Yu sneered, "Then let's go see, what peculiar features the battleground chosen by Bright Daylight has."
Zhang San responded, "Received, we're heading there now… Oh boss, should we go to the Vienna Hotel to take control of Qing Chen's classmate?"
Huan Yu offhandedly said, "That's against the rules of the game, too low."
Zhang San was momentarily startled, "Boss, will Kunlun intervene in this matter tonight?"
Huan Yu laughed, "Don't worry, they're busy looking for the Time Traveler from the Deer Island Financial Group, they don't have time to bother with us."
Meanwhile, Qing Chen was sitting in the taxi, catching his breath slowly.
The prolonged running had put tremendous pressure on his cardio-respiratory system, and the moments in this taxi were his rare opportunity to rest.
In the recent chase with Zhang San, Qing Chen might have seemed at ease, but he could feel the pressure from behind.
If he hadn't planned three escape routes in advance, he might have been caught by now.
The last time he felt such pressure, it was facing Cao Wei in Taboo Land No. 002.
This man was a C-Class Expert.
Possibly even a concealed Awakener.
Outside the window, snowflakes were falling one by one, melting instantly upon contact with the ground, leaving the pavement looking wet.
Qing Chen touched his hair, which had unwittingly become damp as well, not just from the snowflakes but also from sweat.
Fortunately, the city's temperature was relatively high, and the place where his second life-or-death task would take place likely wouldn't freeze over anytime soon.
He was tired, that was what Qing Chen felt inside.
But after the exhaustion of controlling the rhythm of the battlefield, a huge rush of excitement was stimulating his nerves.
His brain seemed to be working faster.
Qing Chen touched the area around his ribs, which were throbbing with pain.
Fortunately, he had eaten three Dragon Fish, and their miraculous warmth had healed much of his injuries; otherwise, he might be in worse shape.
However, at that moment, Qing Chen looked out of the taxi window and suddenly saw a familiar figure mingled among seven or eight people.
He wanted to tell the taxi driver to stop, but in the end, he didn't.
"Strange, how could it be here?" he wondered aloud.
The taxi driver in front said, "Don't talk nonsense, please. I've been following the navigation all the way and haven't taken you on a detour."
Qing Chen: "…"
…
…
More than a dozen black business cars stopped outside the entrance of Weiyang Lake Park.
Nearly a hundred people jumped out of the vehicles, and some took boxes out of the trunks.
In total, there were 12 black boxes, each the size of a computer tower, marked with the words "Boundary-011."
They contained none other than the Boundary-011 type drone units of the Inner World, though it was unclear how Huan Yu managed to bring such bulky equipment back.
Zhang San said coldly, "Those with the boxes, follow me; everyone else, spread out in the park and look for Bright Daylight's traces, keep communication channels open for immediate contact."
The Assassins hesitated, realizing that searching for the target in such a complex park landscape was almost akin to a suicide mission.
And Zhang San's call for open immediate communication meant they wouldn't need to press a button to talk, enabling them to report the target's location before being killed.
Even if they were ambushed, they could still let out a cry of pain, thus revealing the target's position.
The Assassins looked at Zhang San, who was essentially willing to trade lives for information!
Zhang San calmly stated, "Don't forget where you stand in the Inner World. Having decided to serve in exchange for benefits, you must bear the same risks."
The Assassins bowed their heads, switched their Bluetooth earphones to immediate communication mode, and then scattered into Weiyang Lake Park.
However, the target was easier to find than expected.
The Assassins had barely entered Weiyang Lake Park when they heard a roaring sound!
A sniper bullet traversed several hundred meters and directly hit an Assassin into a spray of blood mist.
"Sniper! It's a sniper!" one Assassin shouted hoarsely.
What do you think?
