"Hehe! The game begins." Ye Hao chuckled, then took out a flash mirror and flashbang from his space.

He put on the flash mirror and threw the flashbang behind a pillar with his other hand...

"Whoosh!"

As Ye Hao threw the flashbang, it emitted a faint sound, followed by a glare that enveloped the entire floor.

The dozen or so men brought by Ye Lang to chase Ye Hao were all temporarily blinded by the dazzling light.

"Use the pillars for cover." Ye Lang shouted loudly, his body hiding behind a pillar, and even he was momentarily blinded by Ye Hao's flashbang. He doubted, does Ye Hao carry guns and flashbangs every day? Isn't it prohibited to carry dangerous weapons in the territory of Huaxia?

Before Ye Lang's words could fall, everyone quickly took cover behind pillars, as they were elites among elites and had experience dealing with such situations.

However, two people were slower to react and were shot by Ye Hao. Although they didn't get shot in the head, it temporarily incapacitated them.

"Pew pew!"

At this moment, Ye Hao switched to the Type 95 rifle he used in South Africa; he didn't turn it in when he returned home, keeping it for himself. In close-quarters combat, an automatic rifle is certainly better than a sniper rifle.

After hitting two people, Ye Hao once again used the pillars and factory machinery for cover, understanding that a single flashbang wouldn't blind these National Martial Arts second and third stage fighters for long.

Momentarily, Ye Hao and the opponents fell silent, while the two previously hit individuals slowly began to heat up, their bodies eventually turning red-hot, emitting a strong burnt smell.

Ye Lang watched in horror; what was happening? Self-igniting bullets? Or did something enter their bodies? He then fixed his gaze on the gunshot wounds, realizing the burning started from where the bullet entered their bodies.

Not only Ye Lang was terrified, but his companions were also too scared to make a sound. If this was the outcome of Ye Hao's bullets, who would dare face him? Even a light bullet wound meant certain death.

Under the scorching heat, their souls were burned completely, departing this world just like that.

"What kind of tricks have you pulled? Why are my companions' bodies burning?" Ye Lang roared, his voice echoing in the factory.

Ye Hao chuckled softly at this and said, "Tricks? This is just the beginning. If you want to kill me, be ready to be killed. Let's have some fun now! Haha..." Ye Hao's maniacal laughter reverberated in the empty factory, echoing in Ye Lang's heart.

Ye Hao's confidence was evident because he had just broken through to the fourth stage of National Martial Arts. Although not yet stable at this level, it was beyond the capability of an average third-stage fighter. If not for the firearms, Ye Hao could easily take them all on without pressure.

They were a stage behind Ye Hao in National Martial Arts; unless they had superior skills, they couldn't compensate for this disparity.

Besides, Ye Hao had the eighth-generation human system, which allowed Qianqian to monitor their positions, enabling Ye Hao to perfectly choose retreat routes or counterattack directions.

"Boy, come out, let's have a one-on-one fight. Rest assured, my men won't intervene; we'll have a fair battle, and the loser will be at the mercy of the winner." Ye Lang said, his expression vicious, contemplating that if Ye Hao came out, they'd kill him immediately to avoid drawing local armed forces and becoming trapped.

Even though the military might not be as powerful as them, the military's ability to wield guns and artillery freely in the city made them public enemies, hunted like rats.

Ye Hao's mouth curved in a smile; it was pointless to say more! With the eighth-generation system capturing Ye Lang's expressions clearly, going out would lead to a massacre, not a duel.

Ye Hao took out a smoke grenade from his space...

This was the spoils gained from exterminating the Cyan Snake and Cobra mercenaries in South Africa, now being utilized here.

He took off the flash mirror and put on a smoke helmet, then threw the smoke grenade in Ye Lang's direction.

Ye Lang saw something thrown over, promptly closing his eyes. When he opened them, he realized a gray haze was everywhere, unable to see anything beyond ten centimeters, filled with rage and yelled loudly, "It's a smoke grenade, shoot as soon as you hear a sound."

Ye Lang was somewhat scared; it seemed Ye Hao could hurl various combat gear, from flashbangs to smoke grenades, catching them off guard, and now he could only rely on the snipers in the opposite building for cover.

"Bang!"

A sniper shot rang out behind Ye Hao, causing the cement wrapping around the pillar to collapse, revealing the steel inside.

Ye Hao was alarmed; did the opponents have a thermal detector?

This would make it harder for him to easily subdue them because the thermal detector would naturally recognize enemies and allies. At that moment, being suppressed by their sniper would leave him powerless.

Ye Hao took out two more smoke grenades and a flashbang from his space, tossing them all behind him, intensifying the smoke.

"Qianqian, help me locate the sniper ahead." Ye Hao instructed Qianqian, he needed to know exactly which direction the sniper on the opposite building was in order to find the right cover.

"Left at ten o'clock, right at two o'clock..." Qianqian provided Ye Hao with precise data.

Upon hearing this, Ye Hao brutally took advantage of the cover provided by the opponent's body, approaching step by step...

The person in the opposite building, watching Ye Hao approach his comrade through a temperature detection instrument, was seething with rage. He shouted angrily, "Shit, he's using our men for cover, damn it, change positions."

This was Fei Gou, Ye Lang's capable assistant. Ye Lang's missions always succeeded flawlessly, thanks in part to Fei Gou's contributions. In a short time, Fei Gou deduced that Ye Hao intended to use their men as cover to kill them, so he ordered his snipers to all change positions and aim at Ye Hao.

"Hehe!" Ye Hao arrived in front of one person, chuckling softly.

The man heard the chuckle and quickly pulled the trigger, but Ye Hao was faster and eliminated him with a dagger before he could fire.

Ye Lang heard the chuckle and immediately sprayed bullets toward Ye Hao's location, thinking that if Ye Hao didn't die, their losses would be severe. Thus, he didn't care if his comrade was standing right in front of Ye Hao.

The man was killed by Ye Hao and was shot multiple times by Ye Lang unwillingly falling to the ground...

Ye Hao moved quickly using the cover, weaving in and out, making the snipers in the opposite building as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

"Whizz, whizz, whizz!"

Three shots targeted three heads simultaneously, and before the opponents could react, they were hit.

However, at that moment, Ye Hao's leg reacted a bit slow and was hit by the opponent's rifle...

Ye Hao looked at the injury, smiling, and said to Qianqian, "Qianqian, help me with the healing and disinfection."

Ye Hao wasn't worried about such an injury at all. Ever since he learned about the eighth-generation system, he understood how powerful this system was, equipped not only with advanced weaponry but also with healing magic. However, the healing spell required his inner breath to work with the system's electrical currents to heal wounds quickly.

After a short wait, the eighth-generation system expelled the bullet from Ye Hao's wound, disinfected it with electrical currents, and the wound began to heal visibly.

In just a minute, Ye Hao was standing again as if nothing had happened. Not that Ye Hao was completely fine, but the system's electrical currents were temporarily holding the wound together; he would need to re-bandage it if it lasted too long.

"Bastard, come out and fight one-on-one, what's the gentlemanly conduct in this?" Ye Lang roared angrily, though he felt he had struck Ye Hao with a bullet earlier, he wasn't sure if Ye Hao was okay.

"Fight one-on-one? I've seen plenty of tricks like this, watch my grenade." Ye Hao shouted, but actually had nothing. Still, the shout frightened Ye Lang and the others away.

Even though the path was unclear, they dared not stay in place.

Ye Hao laughed out loud as he jumped out, but the automatic rifle in his hand had been replaced. He now carried an M1216 shotgun, developed in the United States, capable of firing twelve bullets in one go.

User at close range, the M1216 is unquestionably dominant.

"Bang, bang!"

Two shots hit four people...

Ye Lang watched the smoke become clearer and could see a bit with his eyes. When he saw the M1216 in Ye Hao's hand, he was filled with rage! At such close range, getting blasted was undoubtedly devastating!

"Withdraw immediately, surround from downstairs." Ye Lang saw the remaining eight men, shouting loudly and regretting internally. If they had used heavy weapons from the start to bomb Ye Hao's car, there wouldn't be such complications.

But he had too many concerns back then, afraid of attracting the local government and military's attention, making it hard to escape, so he chose to besiege instead.

After Ye Lang's orders, his eight men withdrew to the stairway, leaving two at the rear.

Ye Hao called Fang Ni at this moment.

Once the call was connected, Ye Hao laughed and said, "Ni, the Ministry of State Security has more and more loopholes! I am surrounded by dozens of people, and you haven't received any intel?"

Fang Ni was shocked by this and asked anxiously, "Where are you now? What weapons do the opponents have, and how many?"

"Fifteen domestically made M4 rifles, fifteen Barrett M82s, one heavy weapon rocket launcher, location is Peng City Hongtian and Golden Dream factory, scouts around are unknown." Ye Hao reported briefly and lit a cigarette, showing no signs of worry about being besieged.

"Alright! I will arrange for people to come over immediately." Upon hearing Ye Hao's report, Fang Ni became instantly anxious...(To be continued.
