I Have A Martial Dao World

Chapter 69: 69. The Good Play Begins

After examining the new weapon in his hands, Lu Yao first picked up a few spare magazines and then checked out what these people were actually refining.

"As expected, it's pseudoephedrine, the stuff for refining crystal opium..."

Lu Yao quickly did some mental calculations:

"Cold medicine is priced at 300 a kilogram, and after processing, it sells for at least 300,000 per kilogram... Even after accounting for losses, the profits are staggering, almost catching up to my double penetration door. No wonder Zhang Xin has grown so rapidly."

"Also, this stuff is not like growing opium, which is illegal. You just need to purchase cold medicine, which significantly reduces the risk."

As Lu Yao was reflecting, his ears suddenly twitched, picking up the sound of hurried footsteps fading quickly.

Many of the chemical materials were flammable. He casually fired two shots to create sparks that ignited them and then pursued the fleeing figures.

~~~~~~

A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, slightly overweight, was clutching a briefcase tightly, being escorted by four well-dressed armed men wielding handguns as they made their escape.

"Who exactly is that person! Did you see how he shoots!"

With cold sweat breaking out on his forehead, the middle-aged man tried to alleviate his fear with words, having witnessed a slaughter on the monitors that seemed almost too ludicrous to believe.

Over twenty people were killed instantaneously like extras in a video game, too fake to be real.

"Hey, Jin Muku, are we shooting 'The Matrix' here?"

"Shut up!" one of the suited bodyguards interrupted irritably, yanking off his tie and tossing it away.

He, too, was shaken. In this line of work, it wasn't rare to have blood on your hands, but such a sharpshooting ability was a first for him.

Everyone at the scene seemed to be under the illusion that they were in an action movie.

"We had an agreement that my personal safety would be guaranteed. I am a doctor from Kyoto University..."

"You shut up! We need to get out of here first. I've already called for backup, and a field team will come to rescue us soon!"

~~~~~~

The group showed no intention of turning back to fight Lu Yao, hurriedly moving towards a door that resembled the vault of a bank.

The lead bodyguard stepped forward to input the password, while the other three aimed their guns at the corner, standing guard.

When the door opened, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was an emergency exit leading outside, to be used for evacuation in case of an accident at the drug factory.

But just then, footsteps came from around the corner!

The four men had just lifted their guns to aim when a figure wearing an Ultraman mask kicked off the wall and flew through the air towards them.

Their brains had just issued the command to raise their arms and aim their guns when the assailant's dual pistols already fired. "Bang, bang, bang, bang," four shots rang out, and all met with headshots.

The overweight middle-aged man's face was splattered with spotty blood droplets, screaming as he collapsed to the ground,

Lu Yao, holding onto him, passed through the electronic door onto the ground level, with spreading smoke and flames behind them.

~~~~~~~

The passage led to the factory's office building.

It seemed the entire underground of the factory had been hollowed out to create a massive drug production facility.

The man was still shouting something, but unfortunately, Lu Yao could only understand phrases like "Yamadi," remaining indifferent to his cries.

Taking out his phone, he searched for a photo of Zhang Xin, handed it to the man, and asked in the limited Star Alliance Language he remembered, "Where, is, he?"

The He Kingdom was a semi-colony of the Star Alliance Country, where people mostly understood the Star Alliance Language.

However, upon seeing the photo, the man was first startled, then his face showed a look of sudden realization.

"Are you here because of Zhang Xin … Ah no … Zhang Xin? My dealings with him were merely a simple partnership, not very extensive…"

Lu Yao raised an eyebrow and said, "You speak Xia?"

"Yes, I saw that the news was in Xia, so I'm communicating with you in Xia language."

The man before him spoke fluently and respectfully in Xia language. Since ancient times, Xia Country had exerted a significant influence on its neighboring countries, so there were many who could speak Xia.

The man appeared meek and deferential, but inside he was incredibly anxious, cursing to himself about why his backup hadn't arrived yet. They had guaranteed his safety from the beginning, yet all turned out to be useless!

At the same time, stalling for time, he said, "I am a Doctor of Sciences from Kyoto University, a technical advisor for the factory! I can work for you, generating a continuous stream of huge profits…"

Lu Yao, growing impatient, cut in, "You just need to tell me where Zhang Xin is."

The man swallowed hard and quickly said, "I'm not sure where Zhang Xin is at the moment, but his headquarters are in Guadala City, Inca Nation. He has his private guard and also gets protection from the Inca military…"

The technical advisor seemed to know a lot. Just as Lu Yao was about to engage in a lengthy discussion with him, he abruptly felt a numbness on his back and his hairs stood on end!

Without hesitation, he immediately employed "Carp Stance," using his spine to power his entire body to move laterally 1 meter while keeping his hands and feet still.

Something appeared to be hurtling through the air at high speed!

After Lu Yao dodged, the "technical advisor" behind him erupted in a puff of blood, the bewildered expression on his face split in two with a "slit," leaving a mosaic of mess on the ground.

Only then did the muffled sound of a gunshot reach him from afar, sounding like a fist thumping a comforter… It was a high-caliber sniper rifle with a silencer!

~~~~~~~

By the sound of the gunshot and the direction of the bullet, Lu Yao instantly pinpointed the position of the sniper—on a rooftop 200 meters away!

It was a woman dressed in a JK uniform, making eye contact with Lu Yao through a 12x scope.

The woman aimed her crosshairs at Lu Yao's "Ultraman Mask," blew him a kiss, and then pulled the trigger again!

But what happened next was unbelievable to the woman! The target in her scope moved 1 meter to the side at the exact moment she pulled the trigger, dodging the bullet!

"How is that possible!"

Struggling with shock, the woman urgently contacted her teammates through her headset: [Be careful, the target is a master!]

[Received, we have entered combat range]

The office building's main entrance where Lu Yao was located was already staffed by a team armed with AR-15s, in full-body bulletproof vests, at the ready.

The muscular leader, with a full-face cover making it impossible to see his features, issued an order in Star Alliance Language: [Let's start.]

A man holding a tablet pressed a few buttons and then hit the enter key, plunging the entire factory area into darkness as the power shut off, and all the lighting failed.

The squad had night vision devices ready; meanwhile, the JK woman on the distant rooftop switched on the infrared mode of her sniper scope, turning the world into an array of odd colors, leaving nowhere for the enemy to hide!

Anything with a temperature would show up in her scope, and she quickly targeted Lu Yao, who was hiding behind a wall!

~~~~~~~~

Having realized the presence of these armed forces in the factory through his meditative state, Lu Yao understood that they were much more important and more troublesome than he had imagined!

Just then, that familiar sensation of his hair standing on end surged once more, and he violently propelled himself to safety!

Where he had been hiding, the wall exploded into a hole the size of a bowl, and countless fragments of stone shot out like shotgun pellets.

"Damn it! This woman's rifle can penetrate walls!"

"But I want it!"

Lu Yao dove deeper into the office building. He wasn't the least bit afraid; his mind was set on wiping out this group and acquiring a new toy.
