Luo Bing remained as before, her face frosty and aloof, striding forward with a catwalk-like gait.
This immediately drew a wave of envy from the people upstairs.
This woman seems to like showing off in public…
Zhao Yu shook his head, not thinking too much about it. As long as this mission is completed, that’s all that matters.
The group cleared two more waves and temporarily stopped on an overpass.
“We’ve reached the Sixth Ring…” Luo Bing took out a map and discussed about the route ahead.
“If we encounter this situation, we need to be more cautious…”
Her expression turned serious.
Zhao Yu was confused, thinking to himself that it was them who had been showing off everywhere before.
Cough,cough!
She seemed to realize this and with a slightly flushed face, explained: “The surrounding of the Sixth Ring, we only encounter small group, so there’s no fear of disturbing them…”
“‘But inside the Sixth Ring, the density of mutants is higher, even for us We need to be careful not to attract more mutants, which can lead to trouble…” “Understood!’ Zhao Yu nodded: ’As long as we can reach our destination we can do it!”
“Great!”
Luo Bing said a few more words before leading the team on the road again. During the journey, they encountered another team. This time a warning was signal from a distance.
Luo Bing led her team to bypass the area.
“It’s different here from outside the Sixth Ring…” Luo Bing explained softly “Those who dare to enter the Sixth Ring are all enhanced teams, and there might be masters among them. It’s better not to approach rashly to avoid misunderstandings…”
“Yeah!”‘
Zhao Yu understood and could see the caution of the others from a distance.
The journey ahead, though not as fast as before but it was skillfully navigated by Luo Bing. She led them in a winding path, avoiding many mutants.
Even for those they couldn’t avoid, Han Xiao Xiao would step in, lured the mutants away to regroup at the next rest point.
A journey that should have taken an hour took two to reach the vicinity of the Fifth Ring.
This time, the group stopped outside a large bridge.
‘Too many…’
Luo Bing’s expression was grave. There were over three hundred mutants on the bridge, and even with agile enhancers in the team, escaping was not easy. ‘What do we do now?!1
Zhao Yu also noticed this situation. If they couldn’t cross this bridge, reaching another side would take too long.
‘Wait a bit, let’s see how they do it…’
LUO Bing pointed to a distant place, smiling faintly. ’I’ve sensed several groups already, probably other combat teams…’
Zhao Yu saw nothing unusual, piquing his curiosity.
Third-tier enhancers can sense their kind. At our level, it’s hard to be ambushed…” Luo Bing said proudly.
Zhao Yu didn’t ask further as she would not explained it logically.
The group waited in the building for about ten minutes.
Someone s moving… Luo Bing suddenly sensed some movement outside.
She pointed in a direction, her eyelids drooping, not looking there but sensing in some other way.
After a moment, her face showed surprise.
‘What happened?!’ Zhao Yu asked curiously.
They…’ Luo Bing pointed to the rooftop, and the group followed.
With her guidance, Zhao Yu finally saw the condition of the other team.
At a point two hundred meters from the bridge, figures were seen swimming across the river.
“They chose to swim across…”
“This water…”
Zhao Yu glanced at the green, oily river water and the unknown floating objects in it, feeling disgusted.
“These guys, they’d rather swim…”
LUO Bing scratched her head, as she was not expecting someone to be so cautious as to swim in such dirty water.
Zhao Yu reminded, ”1 don’t want to swim…”
“Don’t worry, neither do I.” Luo Bing shook her head.
While everyone was hesitating, Luo Bing suddenly said, “Someone is coming…”
“It must be to discuss how to cross the bridge…”
Indeed, soon someone approached, callingout in a low voice, “Friends upstairs, can we talk?”
“Come in!”
Luo Bing replied indifferently.
A man in his thirties walked up.
When he saw Zhao Yu and the others fully armed, he was startled, but soon realized that these people might be the financiers. With the real decision-making power lying with Luo Bing and her group.
“Hello, I am from the Lion Mercenary Group…” the man said with a hint of pride.
Luo Bing and the others became serious at this.
Zhao YU grew curious. While Luo Bing was negotiating with the man, he pulled
Han Xiao Xiao aside to ask about the Lion Mercenary Group.
“The Lion Mercenary Group is a power in our Black Stone City…” Han Xiao Xiao explained, “Black Stone City is just over a hundred kilometers to the west, and it s the largest city in our region…”
“Normally, teams like ours with seven enhancers are called combat teams…”
“But there are also groups with greater strength and more people, named as mercenary groups…”
“They have a lot of people?!” Zhao Yu asked curiously.
‘Yes!’
“Every group that can be called a mercenary group has at least a hundred members…”
A hundred people, doesn’t seem like much?!
Zhao Yu was puzzled.
Han Xiao Xiao speaking solemnly, “They are all enhancers!”‘
