The remaining six members of the Blade Team, tasked with protecting all the researchers, instinctively aimed their loaded guns at the direction where Jia Wu was located the moment the gunshot rang out.

However, when they saw who fired, all of them froze, not knowing what to do next.

Of course, they genuinely didn’t know how to handle the situation at hand.

If it had been anyone else shooting at these researchers, they would have retaliated without hesitation.

But Jia Wu had just saved everyone’s lives today.

Moreover, the words of the young researcher earlier not only angered Jia Wu but also left these soldiers feeling heartbroken.

After all, what he implied was that he not only wanted to disregard the life of Nan Muran but also wanted to abandon the ten comrades who were fighting outside for them.

Ignoring the six guns pointing at him, Jia Wu holstered his gun, his voice as cold as ice: “Consider it as if we saved one less person today.”

Watching him kill without hesitation, the researchers were too scared to even breathe.

The leader of the Blade Team looked at the young researcher’s lifeless body on the ground and sighed lightly. “Take the body to the other side.”

Once the Blade Team members had dealt with the body, the small room fell into a deathly silence, both inside and out.

Jia Wu paid no attention to everyone’s emotions and walked straight into the inner room.

Nan Muran was still unconscious on the bed, but her condition had stabilized somewhat compared to earlier.

Jia Wu wet a towel and continued to cool Nan Muran’s forehead and palms.

He had a strong feeling that Nan Muran’s fever was closely related to the depletion of her abilities.

Outside in the darkness, Si Ye and his four companions, along with the six Blade Team members, swiftly left the vacation villa and disappeared into the endless night.

Dong Zi, leading the way, used his speed ability to approach the isolated enemy at the rear. With a twist of his knife, he took the lives of two enemies.

At the same time, Si Ye, using his ability to condense ice blades, worked with him to handle the enemies outside.

The Blade Team’s Liu Jun and the others quickly followed suit, their knives claiming life after life.

While they were slaughtering through the enemy’s ranks, a water-type ability user from the opposing team rapidly condensed four ice blades and shot them at the leading group of four.

Eagle looked at the incoming ice blades with a mocking expression before gathering his strength. A gust of wind blew the ice blades to the ground.

At the same time, Si Ye had already condensed his ice blades and stabbed them directly into the water-type ability user’s neck.

The enemy team seemed completely unprepared for their own opponents to possess abilities, and they froze in shock.

The group that was originally heading toward the vacation villa stopped in their tracks.

Si Ye’s eyes were cold as ice. “First, deal with the two ability users beside him.”

Eagle coordinated with Qiangzi to block their vision, and Dong Zi said, “I’ll help you kill them.”

Qiangzi quickly condensed his abilities, and Eagle blew a gust of wind, creating a blinding dust storm in the area.

At the same time, Chen Dong swiftly moved forward, heading straight for the two ability users near the water-type one.

Si Ye, following right behind him, also formed an ice blade and threw a small fireball at one of the enemies to give them a visual advantage.

Within a single exchange, the three enemies were all taken care of.

Hunting Dog Liu Jun and the Blade Team members watched in awe as the four worked in flawless coordination with their abilities. What luck is this? The pack has awakened their abilities?!

“What are you standing there for? Deal with the rest of them,” Si Ye said, turning back to look at the Blade Team.

Without hesitation, the ten soldiers charged into the remaining crowd. Against normal people, they had an overwhelming advantage, being soldiers of the highest caliber.

Suddenly, a few of them froze.

“These…” Eagle, recognizing the familiar camouflage uniforms on the corpses, looked at Si Ye in disbelief.

If there was no mistake about these uniforms, then who were these people?

Although the two teams weren’t part of the same system, they had frequently cooperated in the past to handle emergencies in the city, and they couldn’t have made a mistake.

The Hunting Dog, Liu Jun, was also stunned. These were their own people!

Si Ye’s eyes were cold as he saw the Black Ice members accompanying them.

He was very familiar with Black Ice. Back when the four of them had escaped the underground lab, Black Ice’s special forces had been chasing them relentlessly.

“Hunting Dog, take your team back and protect them.”

Eagle, Chen Dong, and Qiangzi remained behind to finish off the remaining enemies.

Liu Jun’s expression changed as he felt some anger creeping in. “Ye Wolf, what do you mean by that? Are you looking down on our Blade Team?”

“They’re not here for you,” Si Ye said, his tone firm. “They came for Nan Muran, otherwise they wouldn’t have brought three ability users with them, including a fire-type to counteract Nan Muran’s plant abilities.”

Liu Jun froze. “What do you mean?”

“Take your team inside and don’t cause any trouble for yourself,” Si Ye ordered, flipping his knife in his hand. With a gesture, Chen Dong, Qiangzi, and Eagle followed him into the remaining enemy group.

Si Ye didn’t know what this command meant for him, but he was certain of one thing: no matter who was behind these enemies, once their target became Nan Muran, they were already doomed to die.

After everything outside had calmed down, Si Ye turned to Eagle. “Find the person in charge of this safe point.”

This safe point had fire coverage within a two-kilometer radius, but these people had managed to approach the villa without leaving a trace. How was that possible?

Liu Jun quickly understood the problem. “Find them, fast.”

When they located the room where the person in charge had been, they discovered that he had already been killed. The wounds suggested it was the work of a water-type ability user’s ice blades.

“Ye Wolf, what the hell is going on?” Liu Jun was confused. Why would their own people attack?

Si Ye looked at him. “I’m not sure. Gather all the bodies outside. We’ll investigate their identities when we get back to the base tomorrow.”

After handling the battlefield, the group returned to the suite where Nan Muran was. As soon as they entered, they smelled blood.

“What’s going on?” Liu Jun was stunned.

The team leader who stayed behind immediately reported what had happened inside.

He described the entire event without any personal emotion, merely stating the facts.

“Should’ve killed them,” Eagle said indifferently, offering his conclusion.

Although Si Ye didn’t speak, it was clear that he agreed with Eagle.

Liu Jun furrowed his brows, feeling helpless. “These are all experts in biology, each one is vital to the research at the base.”

“Four with one, choose one,” Si Ye coldly replied.

Liu Jun was stunned. His mind couldn’t process it. Is this how the calculation works? Something doesn’t feel right here.
