According to reliable intelligence feedback, today would be the day that the Diya Alliance returned to the capital. Thunder Dragon, getting up early, swiftly ordered Blackfrost and Silver Moon to prepare for the mission. If things were as predicted, Vivian would choose this day to act. Every time Thunder Dragon thought about this, his normally calm and composed body would tremble with excitement.
It could be said that a single operation wouldn't usually make the seasoned Thunder Dragon this excited, but Athena was different. Luckily, he had gleaned another shocking secret from the news. Athena had already come to Golden Sword Academy yesterday. If they could manage to kill the renowned Athena during the operation and spread rumors as soon as possible, it was likely all major star regions of the Federation would be thrown into a short term war of public opinion.
Unfortunately, when Thunder Dragon revealed his goal to Vivian and requested a temporary change, Vivian rejected it instantly. Truthfully, even Vivian wouldn't turn down Athena's offer. Not to mention whether they could eliminate Athena or not, the level of difficulty of this mission was high and the outcome was uncertain. Thunder Dragon had to provide cover for the two of them so they could quickly retreat.
As expected, when Thunder Dragon received the orders, his face did not reveal any dissatisfaction. His mind had already simulated a new plan. As his pocket watch tick-tick-tocked, he even asked Blackfrost and Silver Moon to have two cups of morning tea, laughing and claiming it would help them clear their minds. When the time was ripe, the quiet trio finally got up one after another and moved towards their target...
In front of the Capital Spaceport, traffic continued to flow as passengers either came or went. No one noticed the three people casually making their way towards the military restricted area, navigating and avoiding all surveillance equipment with a level of skill worthy of a textbook. It was a lesson in counter-surveillance that would have left many elite soldiers envious.
They only drew attention when they arrived at a tightly-guarded area, stopped by a soldier with a steel gun who said, "This area is of military importance, no further access allowed." Worthy of being the capital's guards, the soldier's eyes were cold. Though his body didn't move, the hand holding the gun gave off an air of readiness to enter combat at any time.
A sharp snapping of fingers disrupted the tranquility. Silver Moon attacked like lightning. With a swift motion, the soldier collapsed onto the ground just as his warning was ending, unclear on what had just happened. At that moment, the three figures quickly approached the black scientific base from two different directions...
Blackfrost and Silver Moon's speed was incredible, far beyond the capabilities of a normal person. Surveillance cameras could only catch fleeting after-images. Any soldiers they encountered were immediately shot.
The hidden sniper, wearing a beast-like mask, silently stole the lives of soldiers with each pull of the trigger. The silent grim reaper quickly stirred chaos in the area.
Adams and Dilia had just stepped out of the Underground Science Base when a sudden attack alarm sounded, quickly followed by gunshots...
What was happening? A terrorist attack at the Capital Airport on this special day? As the alarms blared, the attending general immediately gave the order to defend the airport. Dozens of Mecha instantly sealed off the area around Adams, leaving no gaps. However, Dilia's face showed no signs of tension, at least, not on the surface.
Watching the rising plumes of smoke in the distance, the passengers at the airport were filled with confusion; their facial expressions quickly turned to horror. This was the city center, why was this happening... Women held their children tightly, lovers quickened their pace. Despite the efforts of the armed forces to evacuate as many people as possible, they were unable to prevent stampedes. In a moment, the entire airport was plunged into chaos.
The only super soldiers close to the scene were the Haier Brothers and Cangmu Kuangqi; unfortunately, they did not have their Mecha. The Military Department was like headless flies, not knowing what was happening. Nevertheless, they had to order the three to quickly rush to the scene and prepare to support the operation, as two important figures were being targeted.
"Let's go," Kuang Qi said, sighing quietly to himself. If this was a planned operation, their strength wasn't enough to make a difference.
The Haier Brothers nodded in agreement...
Whoosh, the three disappeared and unexpectedly ran into Blackfrost and Silver Moon. "Who are you guys...why did you come here..."
Kuangqi's words were cut off as Silver Moon took action first--without using her gun. From their actions, she recognized their level of strength. Probably her shots wouldn't hit them, so she decided to move forward with her speedy body and kicked at Kuang Qi with a roundhouse kick.
The kick was so swift and vicious, even Kuang Qi had to make a defensive move by crossing his arms. Thud...after a dull sound, Kuang Qi slid almost twenty meters across the ground. His slightly swollen arms were proof of one fact: the opponent's body technique surpasses his own.
With gritted teeth, Kuang Qi acknowledged her strength internally; battling an opponent of this level was not wise. All she could do was to try and delay the opponent as much as possible.
Looking at the Haier Brothers, they were completely suppressed by Blackfrost and unable to fight back. It had to be admitted that the close combat capabilities of our army's super soldiers needed improvement. The fight between these five people was fully captured by surveillance equipment.
"Silver Moon, hurry up and follow!" After knocking down the Haier Brothers, Blackfrost didn't spare any time. He knew Silver Moon was slowed down and had no time to help her in this race against time. Instead, he raced towards the mission target as fast as possible.
As Blackfrost's figure receded into the distance, Silver Moon grew anxious. She longed for freedom, for an ordinary life, she didn't want to be trapped in a hibernation cabin forever... With a sudden exclamation, Silver Moon's eyes turned bright red as if some genetic lock had been released.
Not long after, Kuang Qi also fell...
Watching the transmission on his radar, Adams was shocked. The abilities of the three individuals trained by the Federation were clear, yet they weren't a match for the opponent. He quickly realized a serious problem--this could not possibly be an ordinary attack. He immediately dialed a special hotline and ordered the intelligence officer, Heavenly Communication, to connect with Feng Yi in an almost roaring voice. Feng Yi was the first person that came to Adams' mind.
"Mr. Feng Yi, I am Yu Xin, National Defense Senior Intelligence Officer. There has been a terrorist attack in Area C of the black science base and we urgently need your support. Please note the real-time coordinates, over."
What happened... This was the first time he received an emergency call from the President's Senior Intelligence officer. Feng Yi frowned, realizing the situation was not ordinary, and without hesitation, vanished from his location. Rumbling...as consecutive thunderlike sounds echoed, lingering shadows sped away like lightning.
Through real-time image transmission, Feng Yi saw the face of the intruder. Although he couldn't name Blackfrost and Silver Moon, he could recall having met them before. In less than twenty seconds, he arrived at Area C of the Underground Science Base.
Being at this level, Silver Moon could naturally notice every little movement around her. She abruptly felt something, and as she turned her eyes, she spotted the black-clothed soldier a kilometer away. As their eyes met, Feng Yi had already closed the distance, raising his hand to land an accurate strike on Silver Moon's neck. Silver Moon's mouth opened slightly as she fell to the ground.
