148: Chapter 148 Collecting Interest
After Fernando left, Qin Yang summoned his current three iron guards: the Fifth-level Death Warrior Fifth-level Death Warrior, the Fourth-level Death Warrior Fourth-level Death Warrior, and Qin Gang.
The skills of Li Huaishan and the others were all related to combat, so Qin Yang kept them by his side to ensure his safety. Of course, even without them, with Qin Yang's current physical condition after consuming the Second-level gene enhancement potion, he generally wouldn't face any major problems as long as he didn't encounter a missile bombardment.
During this time, Qin Yang chose a day to consume the Second-level gene enhancement potion. His physical fitness increased to the level of a Fourth-level Death Warrior, and his strength, reactions, and speed all improved significantly. Take strength for example: Qin Yang could now easily throw a car weighing several tons; he was a proper little superman.
However, when it came to combat, Fourth-level Death Warrior and the others were the professionals. With the same physical fitness, Fourth-level Death Warrior could beat Qin Yang like a child; there was no comparison.
"Boss, you called for us."
After Li Huaishan and the others entered, they spoke respectfully to Qin Yang.
"Yeah, I have something for you to go out and have some fun with. Neon is preparing to make a move against our Xinan Country. You guys head over to Neon for a bit. Since we're idle anyway, if they choose to be our enemies, we'll play along.
This time, I've set a few targets for you to complete on the side. As for the rest, play however you want; I won't interfere.
First, tear down that little devils' Yasukuni Shrine. A bunch of executioners who deserve death don't deserve to enjoy offerings.
Second, bring back some money to spend. There's no denying the little devils are quite wealthy. I'll spend some for them, build guns and cannons, and then beat them up some more.
Alright, that's all. For the rest, you decide for yourselves. Qin Gang, you take the storage ring and bring back everything valuable," Qin Yang said lazily as he lay on the sofa.
For Fifth-level Death Warrior and the others, going to Neon really was just for fun. The opening of each genetic lock represented an evolution of human essence. If a missile could pose a death threat to a Fourth-level Death Warrior at close range, a Fifth-level Death Warrior could basically withstand a missile strike unharmed. The gradual opening of genetic locks was actually allowing ordinary people to obtain a higher level of life, gradually transforming into a post-human form.
Furthermore, Death Warriors of the fourth level and above all have the talent of danger intuition. Combined with their reaction abilities, unless it's a saturation missile bombardment, the threat to them isn't great. If they can't tank it, a Fourth-level Death Warrior can just run. Given the current situation of the Blue Star as Qin Yang knows it, no one can stop them.
Finally, Qin Yang's idea was to do some fishing. According to the hints given by the system, there were definitely secrets on Blue Star that he didn't know about. If Li Huaishan and the others exposed their superhuman abilities, would it allow him to catch a glimpse of some clues? Actually, the tasks Qin Yang assigned could have been handled by the Death Warriors of the Neon Branch, but he still sent out his highest combat power. This was mainly because Li Huaishan and the others were extremely powerful and had strong survival capabilities. If they truly encountered the hidden secrets of Blue Star, they could handle it calmly... The next day, after receiving Qin Yang's instructions, Li Huaishan and the others headed to Neon.
Over ten hours later, at the international airport of Neon's capital, Li Huaishan and the others got off the plane and met up with the personnel from the Neon Branch at the arrivals gate.
In Neon's Kyoto, a Chinese restaurant served as the headquarters for the Death Warriors' Neon Branch.
Back when Death Warriors were sent to establish branches in various countries, Qin Yang had few high-level Death Warriors. Basically, Second-level Death Soldiers led the teams. The abilities of Second-level Death Soldiers were varied. In the Neon Branch, the leading Second-level Death Soldier was one whose skill was culinary arts.
After arriving in Neon, the branch manager raided several local gangs and used the money to open a relatively luxurious Chinese restaurant. During the day, the branch members performed various tasks in the restaurant. At night, these Death Warriors would go to various areas of Neon's Kyoto to gather intelligence. Of course, much of this was useless information to Qin Yang and was generally not reported. However, for locals, some of the information still had value. Therefore, the branch also moonlighted in the intelligence and assassination business.
After arriving at the Chinese restaurant, the branch manager personally prepared a feast to welcome the three men, including Li Huaishan.
After they had their fill of food and wine, Minister of the Neon Branch took out a stack of documents and handed them to Li Huaishan.
"Sir, this is the main intelligence for the tasks you need to complete this time. It includes bank security, police response times, and specific details on which banks have the most foreign exchange and gold reserves. As for the Yasukuni Shrine, it's not a closed-off place; there are only a few ordinary security guards on duty inside. For us, we can basically come and go as we please; there's no difficulty at all. However, the Yasukuni Shrine is very large. If we want to destroy it completely, we'll need some handy tools," said Minister of the Neon Branch.
The reason Minister of the Neon Branch called Li Huaishan "Sir" was out of respect for the strength of Li Huaishan and the others.
"Mm, thanks for the hard work. Don't worry, we brought a full set of tools and guarantee the boss's mission will be completed. We'll head out in a bit," Li Huaishan nodded and said.
Although Qin Yang only told Li Huaishan and the others to complete it on the side, how could they do that? They had to take the boss's words as their absolute standard; that was the meaning of their existence.
That night, several SUVs arrived at the outskirts of the Yasukuni Shrine.
"Sir, what's the plan?" asked Minister of the Neon Branch, who was sitting in the same car as Li Huaishan.
"First, deal with everyone inside," Fourth-level Death Warrior interjected.
"Alright, I'll have the men under me do it. They're just a bunch of ordinary people, not even armed. It'll be easy to handle," Minister of the Neon Branch replied.
Li Huaishan and the others didn't refuse upon hearing this. There was a huge gap in strength between them and ordinary Death Warriors, but ordinary Death Warriors were also existences that could crush normal people. For an operation without danger, if the other party wanted to do it, they let them.
At Minister of the Neon Branch's command, over a dozen ordinary First-level Death Warriors got out of the car behind them. These First-level Death Warriors were well-prepared, each carrying a sharp long saber.
Then, these First-level Death Warriors walked straight toward the main gate of the Yasukuni Shrine. At the same time, all the surveillance equipment inside the shrine malfunctioned; this was naturally the work of the Intermediate Artificial Intelligence Xiao Jiu.
In the shrine's security room, a security guard who was slacking off looked up at the monitors and found they were all static. He immediately stood up and opened the door, wanting to go out and check what the malfunction was.
But as soon as he opened the door, a cold light flashed. The last image he saw in his consciousness was a body with only a torso and no head slowly collapsing to the ground. That corpse looked so familiar... After beheading the guard who had delivered himself to them, several searching Death Warriors entered the monitoring room. After searching and finding no one else, they continued to the next location. Along the way, all life was extinguished by the sharp blades in their hands.
