Super Invincible Battleship

Chapter 203: Chapter 120 Ferocious Beast with Tusks_3

Just as Yiben was about to speak again, he suddenly cheered and said, “Haha, watch me shine now and win back all the money you won from me before.”

As it turned out, Yiben finally had a stroke of luck and drew a good hand, allowing him to break even in one go, winning back all the money he had lost. The other three players were somewhat dejected. After handing over the money, one of them, no longer in the mood to play cards, said, “Brother Saliem, the submarine below has been down there too long, and the air quality is very poor, should we let them come up for a rest?”

Saliem replied, “That submarine is our foundation, and the hostages are on it, so we must not expose them. The reason my ship has been moving slowly is to cover for them, and even my crew doesn’t know there’s a submarine below. I know they have had a hard time down there, so after this operation is over, I will recommend them for commendation to our superiors.”

Lingering outside the door, Yan Fei was overjoyed; he finally knew where Lu Pingping was—she was indeed in the submarine below. No wonder he hadn’t found any trace of Lu Pingping on this cargo ship. And that cargo ship owner Saliem was also a member of the Assassin Sect. It explained why the cargo ship had made so many illogical moves before; it was all to conceal the existence of the submarine.

Once Yan Fei confirmed Lu Pingping’s location, the underwater drone responded. Under his control, the Drone Avatar quickly approached the submarine below the sea surface, silently circling it, and then moved to the submarine’s stern.

Now that he knew Lu Pingping was in the submarine, Yan Fei couldn’t sink it, and he had to be very cautious even when inflicting any damage, lest any mistakes end up costing Lu Pingping’s life. His only solution was to force the submarine to surface. As long as the submarine came to the surface, with the combined martial force of Yan Fei and the Drone Avatar, he could take complete control of the situation, then save Lu Pingping, eliminate the kidnappers, and completely resolve the chaos brought about by her abduction, returning everything back to normal.

The drone adjusted its heading, the Quantum Radar began scanning the surroundings, and the Auxiliary Brain inside continuously simulated calculations. Then the drone fired aircraft cannon shells at the submarine’s propeller. To ensure Lu Pingping’s safety inside the submarine, Yan Fei carefully controlled the angle of the aircraft cannon shells, only creating a hole in one of the submarine’s propellers before the drone swiftly moved away.

The submarine’s propeller was damaged, and its thrust was greatly reduced. The people inside immediately noticed something was wrong. However, they were not professionals, and since the submarine was rented temporarily, they had no idea what the problem was. For safety, they hurriedly brought the submarine to the sea surface and began calling for the four crew members left on the cargo ship.

The four who received news of the submarine’s malfunction were also distressed. They quickly left the ship cabin and went to the cargo ship’s bridge. Under Saliem’s orders, the large cargo ship also started to slow down and then stopped in the open sea. Meanwhile, the submarine surfaced nearby, and the submarine’s crew opened the hatch to inspect, only to find the propeller was damaged and the vessel could no longer travel far. After communicating with each other, the cargo ship approached the submarine and lowered the gangway to begin transferring staff from the submarine.

Hiding in the darkness on the cargo ship, Yan Fei stealthily observed the people emerging from the submarine. He indeed saw an unconscious woman being carried on the back by a slim woman, who then started climbing up onto the cargo ship. With a sharp eye, Yan Fei immediately recognized the unconscious woman as Lu Pingping, although he didn’t know why she remained unconscious.

Seeing Lu Pingping with his own eyes, Yan Fei breathed a sigh of relief. Although Lu Pingping was motionless, her chest was slightly heaving, indicating she was just unconscious. As long as he found Lu Pingping, with his abilities, he could rescue her.

The people who came out of the submarine were all dressed in tight black robes, and apart from the woman carrying Lu Pingping, the rest were bearded men, clearly Middle Eastern. However, they looked very ordinary and similar to other Middle Easterners; if one wasn’t careful, they could be easily overlooked. In Yan Fei’s perception, these men in black robes didn’t pose any danger to him; their combat power was fairly average, only slightly stronger than an ordinary person.

After seeing the group in black robes, Yan Fei’s anxious heart finally relaxed. As long as there were no superpowerful fighters among these people, he could safely rescue Lu Pingping. Once Lu Pingping was safe, the various measures he and Lu Pingping had prepared beforehand would immediately spring into action, thoroughly thwarting the siege conspiracy against them, and getting everything back on track.

Yan Fei found it odd though—if the kidnappers were these people in black robes, how had they managed to kill Lu Pingping’s bodyguard, Wang Li, and seriously injure Liu Hong? After all, the skills of Wang Li and Liu Hong were not weak, and they had the home court advantage, which was fully capable of dealing with these black-robed people. This thought flashed by, and Yan Fei didn’t dwell on it; after all, the weaker his opponents, the happier he was since it meant he was more certain of saving Lu Pingping. He didn’t have the ‘protagonist complex’ found in comics, desiring extremely powerful opponents. For him, if a goal could be achieved with less effort, then all the better.

Having prepared for the rescue, Yan Fei waited for Lu Pingping to be carried onto the cargo ship. Just as the woman was carrying Lu Pingping on board, and the black-robed people from the submarine were still on the gangway, with Saliem and the four others still in the bridge, Yan Fei suddenly leaped, soundlessly dropping from the high altitude shipping container. His hands turned into claws, aiming directly at the black-clothed woman carrying Lu Pingping.

In Yan Fei’s perception, this woman in black had an almost negligible presence and seemed extremely weak. He thought he could easily take her down. But to his surprise, while still in mid-air and not yet upon the woman, he saw the black-clothed woman suddenly look up at him. Her eyes sparked with light, a famous Desert Eagle appeared in her hands, and she aimed the large-caliber pistol at Yan Fei, quickly firing the gun.

At the same moment the black-clothed woman fired, a terrifying killing intent emerged from her, striking directly at Yan Fei in the air, leaving his hair standing on end and a chill running down his spine. @@novelbin@@

Faced with this unexpected turn of events, Yan Fei was shocked. He had thought this woman in black possessed mediocre skills and posed no threat to him. However, in an instant, the woman had transformed from a seemingly vulnerable girl into a feral beast, baring its fangs, ready to devour its prey.
