"Ghost Dao, I'm right here!" Upon hearing the voice, Liang Bing exclaimed with surprise.
The people from Dragon Team, at last, have arrived.
In fact, as soon as she returned to the country, she got in touch with Dragon Team.
Moments later, a man appeared in front of Liang Bing, extremely thin, wearing a trench coat, and sporting a mask.
His complexion was very pale, and his eyes were exceptionally deep.
At his waist, he was surprisingly carrying two knives.
This individual was none other than a Captain Level warrior of Dragon Team, Ghost Dao.
He was most skilled in using bladed weapons, his strength virtually on par with Liang Bing's.
"Did you kill these people?" Ghost Dao glanced around and noticed three corpses on the ground.
Liang Bing initially wanted to say it was her superior who helped her, but then she suddenly remembered that Su Chen's identity must be classified, and she could not reveal it indiscriminately.
So, she nodded right away.
She said, "Yes."
Ghost Dao narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.
Because Liang Bing had reported the situation.
Those who pursued them had nearly the same strength as Dragon Team warriors, and some even possessed Captain Level combat power.
For example, that robust man.
His strength was definitely at the Captain Level.
It was hard for him to believe that Liang Bing could take down three by herself.
Moreover, at the moment, Liang Bing's eyes couldn't even see.
However, Ghost Dao did not think too much about it.
He knew Liang Bing's strength well, which wasn't much weaker than his.
Especially after that overseas mission, she had grown a lot upon her return.
He asked, "Where are the items?"
"They are not with me," Liang Bing replied.
Ghost Dao's expression suddenly changed, "What did you say?"
"This time, the Organization assigned both Piao Yu and me to the escort mission, for safety. We both received a mission item, but only one of them is authentic, and mine was a decoy," Liang Bing answered.
Actually, finding out that the thing she had been protecting all along was just an empty box, Liang Bing felt rather disappointed inside.
After all, she had nearly sacrificed herself to protect the mission item.
Thankfully, her superior happened to be there; otherwise, not only would she have died today, she would have been ... by the disgusting Undying Battle Corpses.
"Oh, by the way, I've figured out who the opposing force is," Liang Bing suddenly said.
"Oh? Which force is it?" Ghost Dao raised an eyebrow, his right hand slowly moving toward the hilt of his knife.
"It's..." Just as Liang Bing was about to say the word 'Asura,' a figure appearing somewhat hurried ran over.
"I was about to burst!"
The newcomer was a young man in his twenties.
This unexpected arrival made Ghost Dao, who had already gripped the handle of his knife, slowly withdraw his hand.
"Ah, sorry, I didn't realize anyone was here," the young man said after relieving himself, only then noticing that there were two people not far from him.
One of them was even a woman.
Fortunately, the woman was blind.
Otherwise, it would have been awkward.
"Liang Bing, let's head back first and talk there," Ghost Dao indifferently glanced at the young man and said.
"Mhm." Liang Bing nodded.
One in front of the other, they left the cement factory.
As the two of them departed, the young man's eyes slightly narrowed.
This sudden appearance of a young man was none other than Su Chen.
He hadn't left.
The man with dual blades, though well-concealed, had projected a trace of murderous intent.
After some thought, he decided to follow and see for himself.
"Ghost Dao, you just said, you know what power those people belong to?" Ghost Dao's gaze landed on Piao Yu.
Piao Yu nodded and said: "Actually, I'm not too sure. It feels like they might be from Purgatory."
"Purgatory?" A slight tension on Ghost Dao's face gradually eased into relaxation.
"I'll take you back to the Organization." Ghost Dao took Piao Yu onto an SUV.
Half an hour later, the SUV appeared in a desolate suburb.
It eventually stopped in front of a dilapidated building.
The building had been abandoned for a long time and seemed uninhabited for ages.
"This doesn't seem like Dragon Team?" Although Piao Yu was blind, she sensed that the direction the car traveled was definitely not towards the Dragon Team Base.
"Indeed, this is not the Dragon Team Base." The corners of Ghost Dao's mouth curled up into a mocking smile.
"Then where is this…" Confusion appeared on Piao Yu's face.
"I'll take you to meet someone first, then you'll understand." Ghost Dao did not explain any further.
Piao Yu followed Ghost Dao into the rundown building, full of questions.
Drip, drip, the sound of droplets hitting the ground rang clearly in Piao Yu's ears.
But, Piao Yu knew that wasn't the sound of water.
Because the sound of water droplets is usually crisp, while this sound seemed somewhat dull.
Moreover, a thick scent of blood wafted over.
She instantly realized that what was slowly falling to the ground was not water, but... blood!
"Here, use this to rinse your eyes." Ghost Dao handed a bottle to Piao Yu.
A few minutes later, Piao Yu slowly opened her eyes.
She could finally see things clearly.
When she saw what was in front of her, she was like struck by lightning!
Because she saw, hanging a few meters away in mid-air, was a person.
A delicate and frail figure.
Her body made a 'big character' shape in the air.
Her wrists and ankles were pierced by extremely sharp hooks.
The continuous falling blood was dripping from the four hooks that penetrated her body.
"Piao Yu!" Piao Yu's eyes widened in horror.
She immediately wanted to go and let Piao Yu down.
However, she only managed to take one step forward before collapsing to the ground.
Then, she felt a sudden weakness all over her body.
Piao Yu turned around in alarm, looking at Ghost Dao: "Ghost Dao, what… what's going on?"
Ghost Dao's face was full of mockery, and then he brought over a chair and sat down leisurely.
Smiling, he said: "Nothing much, I just put something in the water I gave you earlier in the car. But rest assured, it'll only make you feel weak and won't harm you."
"Why... why would you do that?" Piao Yu clenched her teeth.
By now, even if she were foolish, she knew something was wrong with Ghost Dao.
"I want the item from your mission." Ghost Dao said indifferently.
"The mission item, isn't it on Piao Yu?" Piao Yu frowned.
"Her box is also empty, and you told me your box is empty too. Who should I believe?" Ghost Dao asked playfully.
"Ghost Dao, by doing this you're betraying the Organization!" Piao Yu said coldly.
"Betray the Organization?" Ghost Dao's mouth curved into a smile, "No, you're wrong. I haven't betrayed my Organization."
A look of shock crossed Piao Yu's face, "Could it be, are you also…"
