Chapter 823: Secrets Beneath the Ruins
The Glasses Man sat disheveled behind the Iron Door, his face sullen as he surveyed the Members around him. Luo Ming peered out, turned back with a complex expression, and said, “Captain, three of our people are dead, and five are injured… Zhang Xi has already taken people to guard the hallway entrance. If they dare to come in, those laid traps will activate one after another…” He uneasily glanced at the Glasses Man’s shoulder and asked in a low voice, “Captain, are you okay?”
The Glasses Man glared at him and suddenly snapped, “Do I look okay?” He angrily leaned back against the wall, then turned his gaze to his wound. Although it was just a graze, the force from the sniper bullet had stained half of his body red.
“If it weren’t for my Superpower being fully activated, this shot would surely have killed me…” A trace of fierceness flashed in the Glasses Man’s eyes as he muttered, “Ling Mo, you can’t escape! When I catch you, I won’t be as lenient as this time. And that girl who fired the shot, I’ll kill her first! Falcon gave you a chance to surrender, and you didn’t appreciate it. You had no respect…”
Saying this, he suddenly drew out a dagger and tremblingly reached for his shoulder. As the fabric was cut, a profusion of Sweat appeared on his face, and a low growl of pain escaped through his teeth. As the blood-stained cloth fell weakly to the ground, a Soldier with a backpack quickly stepped forward and took out some first aid supplies for stopping the bleeding…
“This might hurt a bit…” the Soldier said, frowning as he examined the wound.
The Glasses Man sneered and lowered his voice, “It’s fine… I’ll make them… feel a pain worse than mine…”
His vengeful expression made Luo Ming shiver. Yet, looking at that mangled shoulder, a sense of fear inevitably crept up in Luo Ming’s heart: “In my memory, the Captain has never been injured… What went wrong this time, and what’s the deal with that plane…”
As Ling Mo and his group turned onto another street, they were met by several figures running towards them. Leading them was Wang Lin, who quickly waved and said, “Ling Mo!” She picked up her pace and soon stood in front of Ling Mo and the others. “Are you all okay?”
“We’re fine…” Ling Mo shook his head. Although it seemed chaotic earlier, it was merely a farcical scuffle. They had escaped with ease. Apart from feeling a bit tense, they were not affected at all.
