Chapter 2242 - 1736: King-Level Fighter Gagarin

The third update, asking for subscriptions, monthly tickets~~~~...

Qin Fang, however, looked as if it had nothing to do with him, just standing there smiling, seemingly doing nothing...

"Go..."

Charlie reacted quickly, immediately grasping the situation, and noticed that the other side's men were all stunned, each standing dumbfounded. He promptly called out to his brothers, swiftly charging towards the opposing crowd.

Bang bang, smack smack~~~

In an instant, the stairway entrance became quite lively, with over ten people from both sides gathered on the narrow stairs fighting. The scene was undeniably bustling... The tavern, usually lacking business, was immediately crowded with people.

"Stop! Stop! Everyone stop... Or I'll call the police!"

Such brawling naturally affected the tavern's business, and the tavern owner immediately jumped out to shout, holding a phone and seemingly about to dial the police.

Both sides immediately ceased fighting, staring daggers at each other...

Many carried some form of injury on their bodies, though not particularly severe, yet some injuries were certainly not light... These people were mercenaries, each ruthless and vicious in their actions. If they weren't a bit restrained here, someone might have already been killed.

Even so, several were still fairly injured...

Comparatively, although Charlie's group was outnumbered, they acted quicker, and the narrow stairs meant the numerical advantage couldn't be exploited, giving them a slight edge... Besides Tony, who due to personal skill took a couple of hard kicks, the others were largely unharmed.

The opposing side fared worse, the two guys behind that Gatt were brutally beaten, needing support to stand, while several others were punched by Charlie's group...

"Hmph... We'll see about that!"

Yet, the opposing side evidently didn't wish to escalate the situation further, leaving a hateful remark and quickly descending to the tavern's exit, carrying the already unconscious Gatt to leave.

Charlie and his companions cheered excitedly, heading upstairs to the tavern to feast in a victor's manner... While Qin Fang walked in the middle, unobtrusive and calm, feeling quite at ease.

"Tony, come over..."

After sitting in a private room for a while, Qin Fang called Tony over, massaging him a bit briefly and then applied acupuncture, quickly alleviating Tony's injuries... As the team's sniper, he bore considerable responsibility as an indispensable role, Qin Fang certainly didn't want any losses.

Witnessing Qin Fang's miraculous acupuncture technique, everyone was dumbfounded... The slightly swollen injury quickly subsided, and Tony, as the patient, confirmed he no longer felt pain, as if he'd never been injured.

"For general injuries, as long as you protect your vital points, I can save you all..."

Noticing the others' odd looks, Qin Fang merely gave a serene smile and casually remarked.

"Hiss~~~"

Still, Charlie and the others couldn't help but inhale sharply, as they were overwhelmingly shocked by Qin Fang's words. If those words weren't deliberately exaggerated, it was like handing each of them a personal talisman.

For mercenaries like them, always walking the edge of death, living each day with blood on their knives, that's why they constantly adopt a carpe diem attitude, given they're unsure whether they'll survive the next mission...

Rather than dying without indulging, it's better to seize the moment for enjoyment now!

However, Qin Fang's assurance essentially conveyed that even if the upcoming mission was extremely dangerous, as long as they protected their vital points, their survival chances were considerably higher. This could only excite them.

At this moment, they all deeply felt how wise their initial choice was...

Of course, whether Qin Fang's words were true would depend on their actions during the mission, yet Qin Fang's effortless treatment of Tony's injuries served as a promising demonstration.

...

"Bastard!"

Gatt roared angrily, eyes blazing with fierce flames, appearing as though he wished to devour everything before him, his fury having reached an uncontrollable limit.

"I will kill them all!"

Black Gatt spoke through gritted teeth.

"Captain, this... terror is not easy to handle!"

But, someone nearby responded in a similar way, the strengths of the two teams are comparable, and if they fight, at most there will be mutual casualties. However, completely wiping out the other side is almost impossible... Even though Charlie's side has lost two people now, it seems this possibility is still not very high.

"Captain, actually we could do it this way..."

However, there was a team member beside them whose eyes twirled as if thinking of a way, immediately approached Gatt's ear and started whispering, others also leaned in to listen.

"This is indeed a good method…"

Gatt pondered briefly and his eyes brightened up instantly, couldn't help but nod.

Not only him, but others also couldn't help nodding upon hearing this plan, a smile of excitement appeared at the corner of their mouths, as if their strategy had been implemented successfully, already annihilating Charlie's team.

"Captain, this method is good, but a key step requires you to personally take action…"

The method is indeed good, but there's an important premise, the team member who suggested the idea also said with a smile, which was typical flattery towards Gatt.

"Hmph... I'll handle this! This time, let's see how you die…"

Gatt also patted his chest to assure, while thinking about Charlie and his group, his eyes flaming with anger, speaking through clenched teeth, his smile becoming incredibly sinister...

Qin Fang and his team were obviously unaware that Gatt had already thought of a plan to plot against them, at this moment, they finished their meal and returned to their lodging for rest, while waiting for further instructions.

According to the information Qin Fang heard, the opening of some underground palace seems to have a time limit, and the opening time is less than two days away, during which the Hand of the Demon can only wait here for orders.

If Qin Fang's estimation is correct, there are surely already Hand of the Demon people watching the surroundings, in this period if someone acts rashly, they will not only be excluded from the action team but may also face pursuit from the main force...

Given this, Qin Fang and his team decided to stay low, remain at their lodging waiting for orders, while preparing the necessary equipment for the next steps… These items are specially delivered by Hand of the Demon personnel, but need to be paid for!

As long as there's money, almost any demand is no problem, even some internationally embargoed heavy weapons can be obtained.

Qin Fang didn't need to prepare much, the various equipment in his props box is enough to arm a hundred-man squad, all sorts of light and heavy weaponry are complete... With the infinite magazine at hand, he has no worries.

However, he didn't take out these weapons to give to Charlie and the others, letting them seek Hand of the Demon people to buy... Although it costs a lot, it can reduce others' suspicion, which is not bad.

As for Charlie and the others' insufficient equipment, it's not much of a problem since they will follow Qin Fang's side, naturally they won't lack these things...

Just like that, a whole day passed in peace, the time till the underground palace opening got closer...

Meanwhile, more people arrived in the small town, and some teams seemed to receive instructions, heading into the mountains in groups or alone, Qin Fang and his team soon received orders, immediately packed their gear, and set out towards Danxia Mountain.

Soon, the Hand of the Demon team gathered on Danxia Mountain... here, beneath the main peak of Danxia, in front of an imposing rock wall, the surroundings appear quite desolate, almost without special features.

Qin Fang took a quick glance and found at least two to three hundred people gathered here, each team relatively independent, spread in the outer areas, only at the center, there were some uniformly dressed Black-robed men stationed.

"Core Guard Squad…"

Upon seeing these people, Charlie couldn't help but exclaim, because these are the true core of the Hand of the Devil Mercenary Corps, almost every one of them is a fearsome expert, and currently, there are forty to fifty of them.

Qin Fang casually scanned them, indeed the strength of these Black-robed men is quite formidable, not only is their level uniformly Level 7, their actual strength has practically reached the Grandmaster-level Tier... Although it's just the Grandmaster-level Initial Stage cultivation, with so many combined, even Great Grandmaster Level Experts have to avoid them.

"That is… the leader of the Core Guard Squad, Gagarin! A King-Level Fighter…"

When Charlie saw the burly, imposing Black man within the Core Guard Squad, he spoke with a face full of reverence, his eyes seemed to glow, making Qin Fang suspect whether this guy's sexual orientation was abnormal.

Nonetheless, Charlie was quite rational too, quickly realizing that his side also stood no less than a King-Level Expert Qin Fang, his courage instantly inflated, his demeanor and emotions completely recovered.

"This person's strength is indeed very strong…"

Qin Fang, of course, also saw the leader of the squad, Gagarin, his eyes flickering with strong battle intent... This person felt to Qin Fang like facing that mysterious individual again, extremely strong and terrifying! (To be continued.
