Chapter 607: Chapter 607
Facing the muzzle of the gun, Lin Chen showed no fear as he slowly walked towards Yuri.
"You, don't come any closer!" Yuri saw Lin Chen getting nearer and suddenly his face turned ghostly pale.
The hand holding the gun trembled involuntarily.
Lin Chen snorted coldly, "Weren't you going to shoot me dead? Shoot then!"
A fierce look appeared in Yuri's eyes, "Kid, I originally wanted to torture you properly, but since you're seeking death, I'll grant it to you."
Saying that, Yuri prepared to pull the trigger.
However, just as his finger curled around the trigger, he suddenly felt a chill in his arm and blood splattered before his eyes.
The next instant, he was horrified to discover that his right arm, which was holding the gun, was swiftly falling, landing in a pool of blood.
Yuri's face turned pale, and the severe pain made him emit a heart-wrenching scream.
So ruthless, those fallen strong men watched Yuri, who was clutching his arm and wailing in agony on the ground, each quaking with fear.
Lin Chen approached Yuri, squatted down, and said coldly, "The first time you wanted to kill me, I spared you. I took an arm the second time, and if there's a third time, I will take your life."
Saying that, Lin Chen, under the horrified gazes of the onlookers, took Pan Jing's hand and walked out of the alley.
Along the way, Pan Jing curiously looked at the boy beside her.
Pan Jing felt more and more that the man beside her was like a mystery, appearing completely like a big boy when with her, but when facing enemies, he was incredibly fierce, much like a demon from hell.
Lin Chen looked at Pan Jing, who was staring at him, and smiled, "What? Do you think I'm bloodthirsty? Like a demon?"
Pan Jing shook her head, "Not at all. When I was a child, I always had a dream of having a Prince Charming to protect me and defeat all the bad guys, and you are my Prince Charming."
Saying that, Pan Jing tiptoed and gently kissed Lin Chen's cheek.
Just then, a red sports car suddenly stopped by the roadside.
Lin Chen looked inside the car and was surprised to find Xu Jiayi.
"Hold on, I have something," said Lin Chen as he walked towards the sports car.
"Xu Jiayi, what a coincidence?" Lin Chen smiled awkwardly.
"Did I interrupt your flirting?" Xu Jiayi asked with a tone of annoyance.
"No, no, what's up, Xu Jiayi?" Lin Chen asked curiously.
"There's a task," Xu Jiayi stated coldly.
"This, could you drop my friend off home, as it's getting quite late?" Lin Chen asked hesitantly.
Having just dealt with Yuri, the opposition surely wouldn't let it go.
Letting Pan Jing go home alone, Lin Chen truly wasn't at ease.
"Didn't expect you to be so considerate. Let her get in the car," Xu Jiayi said coldly.
Lin Chen called Xu Jiayi and both of them got into the car.
All the way, the three of them didn't speak, creating a very gloomy atmosphere, but thankfully, Pan Jing's house wasn't too far away; they arrived in just over ten minutes.
Seeing Pan Jing enter her house, Lin Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's the task, Xu Jiayi?" Lin Chen asked curiously.
"In a valley thirty miles from Mansville, there's a village. According to intelligence, thirty percent of Mansville's drugs come from this village, and we have sufficient evidence to show that the village is controlled by outsiders. So, this time we need to collaborate with the troops to eliminate this drug village," Xu Jiayi explained.
"I see! Does this have anything to do with reviving Zhao Xiaowen?" Lin Chen asked puzzled.
"Of course, it's related. It's said that the outsiders in that village have the ability to bring people back from the dead," Xu Jiayi stated indifferently.
"What?" Upon hearing Xu Jiayi's words, Lin Chen's expression suddenly changed.
It resonated with the video footage he had seen.
"We owe it to you for tripping Wadi, allowing us to capture such crucial intelligence and eradicate this cancer hidden in Manchester," Xu Jiayi said.
At this moment, the car entered the headquarters of the special group, and Lin Chen followed Xu Jiayi into the conference room.
By now, the conference room was already filled with numerous people, all of whom were curiously glancing at the young man.
Emon introduced with a smile, "This is our new member of the special group, Lin Chen."
Seeing how young Lin Chen was, murmurs began to ripple through the crowd, "What, this kid is so young, he must have gotten in through backdoor connections."
"Exactly, every person in our group has undergone special training, and I've never heard of this guy!"
Emon glanced at everyone and said, "This time for our mission, I will serve as the team leader, and Lin Chen will be the deputy leader."
Emon's announcement was like a bolt of lightning, stirring an uproar throughout the conference room.
"What, they're making this kid the deputy leader?"
"Are you kidding me? Why should we listen to some kid?"
A wave of noisy discussions erupted in the conference room.
Lin Chen felt deeply frustrated; he suspected that Emon was actually trying to get back at him.
He had never thought about becoming the deputy leader; his only purpose in coming to this country was to find a way to save Zhao Xiaowen.
At that moment, a burly, bald man stood up. This man was Fei Lei, who had always been the deputy leader of the group.
He glanced disdainfully at Lin Chen and said coldly, "Leader, I disagree with this arrangement."
"Disagree? Why?" Emon asked with a faint smile.
"I have always been the deputy leader of the strike team. In terms of experience, I am superior to him; in terms of combat ability, he is just a pretty boy. What qualifies him to be the deputy leader?" Fei Lei said coldly.
Just as Lin Chen was about to speak out and give up the position of deputy leader, Xu Jiayi leaned over and whispered to him, "Lin Chen, only if you're the deputy leader can we better follow the clues to the Life Stone during the mission."
Lin Chen sighed and stood up, addressing Fei Lei lightly, "What will it take for you to be convinced?"
Fei Lei snorted coldly, "A real man lets his fists do the talking."
Lin Chen smiled faintly, "All right, then let's get to it."
Fei Lei was startled, "This is a conference room, how do we fight here?"
"Why can't we fight? I'll stand here; you attack me, and if I defeat you, that's it," Lin Chen said calmly.
"Arrogant!" Fei Lei snorted coldly and charged towards Lin Chen like lightning.
Fei Lei was a supernatural user with the power of lightning, and as his fist aimed at Lin Chen, it was enveloped in layers of lightning.
The people in the conference room, seeing Lin Chen just foolishly standing there with no reaction, shook their heads in disbelief.
"This kid is done for. Being hit by Fei Lei's Thunder Fist, he'll probably spend the next half a month in bed."
"Ha, serves him right! We don't keep such gold-plating princelings in our group."
Everyone looked at Lin Chen with disdain and mockery, assuming Fei Lei's fist would send him flying.
"Bang!" Just as Fei Lei's fist was about to strike Lin Chen, Lin Chen slowly extended his hand.
"Idiot, he actually dared to catch Fei Lei's Thunder Fist head-on? He's asking for death," they thought.
Just when everyone thought the fight was over, Lin Chen suddenly grabbed Fei Lei's fist.
"Impossible, he's unharmed after getting struck by the Thunder Fist!" Everyone's faces showed expressions of shock.
