159: 159.
Raid 159: 159.
Raid Lady Maria was already a thorn in the drug lord’s side, a constant irritant in his eye.
She then offended the Star Alliance Country with a street-side speech, to be precise, the “Star Alliance External Intelligence Bureau.”
In a hellish place like Moxico, to offend both powers was to wish in vain for even a decent death.
That’s why the lady offered up the significant pledge of “private military rights.”
It must be said she made a wise decision!
The very next day after the roadside speech, in a small country in the northern Caribbean Sea called “Heidi,”
Continuous sounds of suppressors firing echoed from the President’s Residence, accompanied by the “thud” of bodies hitting the ground.
Inside the President’s Residence lay bodies strewn haphazardly everywhere, and all the dead were fully-armed big men, uniformly shot in the head, their bulletproof vests completely undamaged.
In a short time, the President’s Residence had been thoroughly cleaned.
All that remained were the President and his wife, shivering on the living room sofa, their frightened eyes fixed on the three figures—two men and a woman.
A guard of nearly a hundred people was wiped out in three minutes.
The President had a vague idea of who the intruders were and attempted to stay calm,
“You’re the cleaners from the Foreign Affairs Bureau!
Listen!
We can talk…”
“No need, Mr.
President~”
A flippant white man approached.
With slicked-back hair and a small mustache on his lip, he smiled warmly and said,
“I’m Lloyd, pleased to meet you.”
Then Lloyd, lightning fast, whipped out his handgun, blew the President and his wife’s brains out, and instantly returned the gun to its holster.
The whole process was incredibly swift, and there was only a single gunshot sound.
Lloyd asked his companion, “Anna, how many seconds did I use?”
Anna, a tall woman with silver hair, shrugged, “0.18 seconds.”
“Not bad, standard performance.”
Lloyd sat down on the sofa, right in between two corpses with their pale eyes rolled back.
Resting his hand on a corpse’s shoulder, he said, “Seems like there were two kids, too.”
Upon hearing this, Anna and another man immediately started searching the President’s Residence.
They quickly found two little boys with faces full of terror in a cloakroom.
The older one bravely stepped forward, opening his arms wide to shield the younger.
Anna pulled out a grenade, pulled the pin, tossed it into the room, and then shut the door.
With a loud “bang,” the door flew out enveloped in black smoke, and the room was left in disarray, with limbs and body parts strewn about.
Lloyd stood up, smiling, “You really are brutal.”
“On the contrary, this is the only mercy I have left.”
Anna turned to the third person who hadn’t spoken yet.
He was a burly man with a thick beard, built like a bear.
He was looking at the mutilated bodies of the children, his face filled with regret.
Having completed their mission, the trio prepared to leave.
Just then, their phones buzzed simultaneously with new orders.
Looking at Lady Maria’s photo on his phone, Lloyd frowned,
“It’s delaying my vacation; what if I get PTSD from this?”
Anna flipped to the page about Lu Li and said indifferently, “This one could also net the drug lord’s bounty, 30 million dollars.”
“30 million dollars!
To hell with PTSD~”
Lloyd’s mood lifted once again, and he ushered his companions out of the President’s Residence.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile, Lu Li was in a hotel, being helped into a suit by Jessica and Teresa.
He had a “fundraising dinner” that evening, which required formal attire.
It was already the third day after the incident, whenever the lady publicly criticized the Star Alliance, showcasing her toughness, her approval rating rose steadily, about to surpass the critical 50%, the situation seemed very promising.
What’s interesting is that the bigwigs who had previously been desperately trying to distance themselves actually took the initiative to hold this “fundraiser dinner” to gather campaign funds for the lady.
“As long as you have power, countless people will fawn over you, no matter where you are.”
Lu Li sighed softly, and the two girls had him dressed impeccably, after which they began to change into their evening dresses themselves.
The two western girls chattered and laughed as they undressed, showing no intention of avoiding Lu Li.
Lu Li quietly compared them and thought their figures were quite nice, both slender and full.
Yet he was unaware that danger was quietly approaching!
At this moment, a “Gulfstream G650” private jet landed at Guadalajara International Airport.
Lloyd and his two companions carrying equipment cases disembarked the plane, he licked his finger and then let the air dry it.
“Temperature 20, humidity 60%, light breeze, nice sniper weather.”
As Lloyd walked, he planned out his tactics:
“Anna and I will infiltrate the hotel, Brown Bear with the anti-material sniper rifle…
Oh~ there’s an inside man?
This mission is so simple it’s boring; let’s get it over with and go on vacation.”
Anna and Brown Bear showed no expression and said little.
Such a surprise attack with all kinds of advantages was indeed somewhat boring in the eyes of a veteran.
~~~~~~~~~~
At 8 o’clock in the evening, Lu Li and his party arrived at the “Tia Hotel” on time.
In the resplendent banquet hall, numerous successful individuals held champagne glasses to congratulate Lady Maria.
The atmosphere was very lively, but Lu Li didn’t enjoy this kind of socializing.
He let his subconscious guard the lady’s side, while his mind pondered the issues of “Sword Control.”
Infusing the spirit into the flying sword was not only about making it fly faster but also about making the sword even sharper.
That’s why Fan Shouyi’s Peach Wood Sword could easily pierce through Xia Weiyun’s body.
On this point, Lu Li had some ideas.
He extended his index finger to bear the spirit, concentrating and compressing it to the extreme, making it as thin as an A4 paper, and lightly sliced at the glass in his hand.
With a “snip” sound, the rim of the glass was cut off.
“It’s similar to the ‘Hive Shield’ principle, constantly condensing and compressing the spirit to form an invisible blade.”
“In this way, combined with the sharpness of the hard alloy itself, the attack power will inevitably skyrocket!”
Lu Li patted the backpack behind him, eager to give it a try.
The Flying Sword sensed its master’s emotions and also trembled a few times inside.
At this moment, Lu Li’s ears twitched, did he hear some strange noises?
After refining his internal organs through martial arts, he also possessed the physical quality and senses of a tiger, and immediately judged:
“Those are the sounds of a suppressor-equipped pistol firing!”
Lu Li’s hearing was spot on.
At this time, in the hotel lobby.
Lloyd and Anna, both in sharp suits, headed towards the reception desk.
The lobby manager nodded politely and smiled, “Welcome to Tiya Banquet Hall, please present your invitation.”
Lloyd responded kindly, “What’s your name?”
The female manager, a kindly woman in her forties, continued to smile, “My name is Susan, sir, and you are…?”
“Nice to meet you, Susan, I’m Lloyd.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lloyd had an “FN57” pistol in his hand, and he fired.
The female manager’s forehead was pierced by a bullet while a polite smile still adorned her face, and brain matter sprayed onto the wall behind her.
Lloyd and Anna then immediately fired at the other staff and security in the lobby, killing 12 people present within less than 5 seconds.
Lloyd adjusted his suit which emitted a strange glow, and laughed:
“We’re going to join the banquet now.”
[Received!]
500 meters away, Brown Bear had set up the anti-material sniper rifle on the rooftop, and Lu Li was already in his crosshairs.
