In the woods, the old man led his own and rigorously searched for traces of Ye Wei, Eleven, and Mo Jue. Twenty-over well-trained wolfhounds jumped and barked, their keen sense of smell coming into play, whilst they slowly searched for where Ye Wei and company hid.
Their sense of smell was much keener than that of regular wolfhounds. On top of that, their exceptional ferociousness and well-trained nature made them excellent help for searching people.
The forest was dead-silent, and the moon, as though it predicted a terrible fight to come, hid behind the clouds. The night sky was exceptionally dark, especially in the woods where the dense tree cover blocked out all light. As the woods were not near a minefield, there were very few people on-site and it was hence extremely quiet to the point the consuming darkness seemingly enveloped the woods.
In the sinister and dark forest, the occasional barking of wolfhounds accompanied by waves lapping against the rocks created a tension that was unnerving. The young men ordered into the woods to search for the three were crept out and were on full alert.
While they were not timid by nature, being in such an environment and against such experts, they would be fearful and thread in trepidation.
The old man followed them into the forest as a commander to the search. As both parties had no light, their vision had adapted to the darkness thanks to them frequently moving in the night. They had no problems differentiating people from the scenery in the dark.
All of a sudden, there was some flapping above the heads of some youths. As the branches shook and the leaves rustled, they were terrified and fired in the direction of the swaying. A wave of gunfire rocked the woods.
Everything then fell silent. There was nothing there, save a poor bird who was caught in the gunfire and dropped from the tree. A deathly silence ensued.
It was silent, very silent actually.
Suddenly, gunfire rang out from the other side of the forest. The gunfire became sporadic, and they, all tense, turned around in panic.
The old man squinted. He was exceptionally calm and simply stood there and did not move. As he heard gunfire from both sides, he did not show any emotion. He merely tucked his hands behind them and stood still. His blurry eyes, in spite of his calm demeanor, were shockingly bright.
At that moment, gunfire rang out from the other side of the woods. The men suddenly turned around, all alert. This repetition sent them mentally fatigued, not knowing how they should manage it.
They had to check their corners and carefully advance.
The pack of wolfhounds, having seemingly absorbed the tense atmosphere, was not in the rush they were. They seemed fatigued, their barks standing out against the silent night.
The young men suddenly moved in the direction of the wolfhounds, guns chambered and ready to take the fight to their enemies. Ye Wei, sitting on the treetop, smiled. ‘Now that I’ve led you in, getting out alive will depend on your luck.’
As a thread shot out from her hand and nailed itself on the trunk, Ye Wei looped up and glided across on the thread. At the same time, with her silver gun in hand, she fired eight shots in succession and instantly took down twelve wolfhounds.
This silver gun was Mo Jue’s compensation as the gun belonged to Mo Jue. But he had lost Ye Wei’s gun. Ye Wei was extremely angry and insisted that Mo Jue compensate her. Hence, Mo Jue would yield to Ye Wei’s demands, and this gun, the top-rated silver Polar Fox, hence landed in her hands.
Among pistols, the most lethal was the Polar Fox, followed by the Maghreb Lion, and then the Desert Eagle. Each of the pistols had their strengths and weaknesses, and even Su Man, the most acclaimed gunsmith, took a lot of effort building one.
Ye Wei’s original pistol was also a silver Polar Fox that was designed and built by Su Man. He spent the time and effort building the gun in exchange for Ye Wei to stop romantically pursuing him.
For her beloved gun, Ye Wei had no choice but to stop pursuing Su Man amidst her heartache and disappeared with Eleven on the same day. As Mo Jue had lost her gun, one could imagine how enraged Ye Wei was. When Mo Jue surrendered his silver Polar Fox to Ye Wei, Ye Wei did not feel the slightest guilt.
Given the immense lethality of the weapon, and how Ye Wei was a top shot, a single bullet from the gun would easily put down two stocky wolfhounds.
When she acted, the youth were stunned and could not believe what they saw. While the wolfhounds were separated into three groups to facilitate tracking, there were only eight of them pursuing Ye Wei. With all eight wolfhounds pursuing her dead, she had more freedom to act.
Once the men reacted to where gunfire had come from, Ye Wei had quickly relocated and avoided danger. In jungle warfare, neither Eleven nor her dared to claim to be best at it.
It was not too long before the team tracking Ye Wei, from an initial strength of eighteen, silently dropped in size until seven to eight. Only then did they realize that she had routed them from behind.
It was too badass, too twisted for somebody to be this skilled.
They were shocked and enraged.
They were also deeply shocked and clearly understood that their abilities were leaps and bounds behind their opponent. To men who often thought of themselves as the strongest, this was undoubtedly a slap on their faces.
And a vicious trampling of their egos.
What kind of twisted person was this!
Gunshots and agonizing screams came from two other places in the woods. Clearly, Ye Wei, Eleven, and Mo Jue worked in sync extremely well. Whilst Ye Wei and Eleven’s coordination was clear as day, Mo Jue got down to proving himself once his wife took action.
Gunfire, agonizing screams, the roars of fears from animals, and the yelps of the wolfhounds that remained made for an extremely terrifying atmosphere.
The men were extremely terrified and could not take it anymore.
“F***, I’ll kill you!” The man, already in fear, panicked and reached his extreme rage. He picked up his assault rifle and sprayed the surroundings with gunfire. The gunfire disrupted the creepy atmosphere of the woods.
It made the actual atmosphere even tenser.
His madness was the culmination of anger, uneasiness, and fear. That explained why he fired into the surroundings with his assault rifle without regard. He was broiled in violence that triggered him to waste everybody.
Ye Wei coldly curled her lips. There was a murderous intent on her brows that night that replaced her typical alluring nature. With an aura that rivaled Hades, it was so tense to the point that even the ants in the forest could sense her coldness.
With a slight curl to her lips, Ye Wei hooked her leg against a branch and leaned upside down. As she grabbed a man’s hair with her hand, she twisted her wrist and fractured bone. The wave of gunfire covered the sound of tibia fracturing.
Another two men were taken out.
Ye Wei was an over-the-top character who would allow one to savor what one was even more afraid of. She hence kept the man who went berserk alive and instead took down the men around him. As concealable weapons were precious and not inexhaustible, Ye Wei used them extremely sparingly.
Without using them too liberally, she slid down the branches and went behind them. She took out all the other youths in the same manner.
Once that man had finished going crazy, he realized, to his shock, that all of his companions had fallen. His eyes were wide open, and he made a terrible scream, trying to run.
Ye Wei shrugged her shoulders and said alluringly, “Surely you can’t be this terrible? I have yet to settle you.”
She kicked up the gun at her feet, grabbed it, deftly flipped the safety off the weapon and fired a shot at the man. As he was killed by the shot, Ye Wei coldly smiled and closely observed the gun. “This is good stuff!”
These men had firearms of very decent quality. They were new rifles. Ye Wei picked up one of them, searched for a few magazines off a man, and then collected a few pistol magazines. She then retracted her thread and quickly moved in the direction of the old man.
Ye Wei, Eleven, and Mo Jue reached at the same time. Eleven and Mo Jue had also finished off those who were following them. The three of them encircled the old man in the middle. As Ye Wei was about to speak, Mo Jue said, “Dear wifey, I have helped you take care of them all.” It seemed as though he was asking to be commended.
While the night was like day to them, the old man squinted. He could see that somebody had worked on Mo Jue’s face as those purple eyes left a very deep impression. As Mo Jue’s face had been decorated, he did not expect it to be Mo Jue.
He coldly smiled. What kind of circus freak show was this?
Ye Wei smiled alluringly and said, “Good boy.”
As Mo Jue saw his wife praise him, he was so elated but did not applaud and his face broke into a beaming smile. He was satisfied and properly subservient to his wife who seemed to be above all. As Ye Wei saw it, her eyes twitched.
If the situation had allowed, she would have given Mo Jue a big fat kiss. He was too damn cute.
Like somebody who was ripe for the taking.
Eleven’s cold voice rang out. “Blue Wolf, is that you? You traitor!”
In the woods, the stench of blood permeated the air and Eleven’s coldness almost froze the blood in the air and the stench of blood grew. Like a winter storm approaching, her coldness was intimidating.
Blue Wolf, the top killer in the world forty years ago who reigned supreme alongside the old witch, the White Wolf.
Back then, there was no First Terrorist Organization but merely a special-operations team, aka mercenaries, who did the wet work at the behest of governments and mafias around the world. They controlled almost half of the global underworld.
Having reigned supreme in the underworld for a whole twenty years, the excessive brutality of training on the Spec-Ops Island became demeaning. That, along with the island owner outing Jason’s entire family, led to Jason, Chu Li, and Black J rebelling. With Blue Wolf and White Wolf secretly assisting, the revolution was a success.
They established the First Terrorist Organization and usurped the entire infrastructure built on Spec-Ops Island. With Spec-Ops Island as their power base, the information wielded allowed Black J, Jason, and Chu Li to constantly come out tops in the firearms market.
This eventually took shape as the complete First Terrorist Organization.
It was initially agreed upon that Jason’s trio would be the center of the organization as they had taken pains to establish the organization whilst Blue Wolf and White Wolf helped remove obstacles in the background and did not overtly assist. This agreement created two power centers, official and unofficial.
But Blue Wolf was not satisfied, and the First Terrorist Organization’s increasing leadership position in the firearms market led to Blue Wolf becoming increasingly jealous. A brutal person who was excessively domineering, Jack’s explosive temper, and Black J and Chu Li’s inclination to overlook their friend’s shortcomings led to Jason undoubtedly winning all conflicts. The old witch sat out of such affairs and merely focused on developing talents.
Eventually, the official and unofficial power centers started to clash even more violently. Blue Wolf felt that he was not taken seriously and Jason would not even listen. While Blue Wolf had thought that Jason, who was the old witch’s disciple, would take instructions from him, Jason, however, felt that a person who was consistently behind the scenes had no business calling the shots in broad daylight. They would be better off sticking to their respective roles.
Blue Wolf eventually turned traitor. He secretly snitched on them to the FBI, provided information to counter-terrorist groups, and even collaborated with the Colombian and Mexican armies to carry out a series of devastating bombings against terrorist strongholds that destroyed all of Jason, Black J, and Chu Li’s hard-won efforts. Thankfully, Commander informed them early enough to allow their main force to pull out of the fortifications, but a part of them was still trapped and suffered immense casualties. A hundred research scientists in the terrorists’ research base along the Colombian-Mexican border were arrested and twenty of their best were murdered. Chu Li, in a fit of rage, leveled the Mexican prison and ran all relationships with governments to the ground. Since then, the First Terrorist Organization was not constrained by any nation.
The old witch, having no other option, transferred information of all persons from Spec-Ops Island and then leveled the island. All evidence of her involvement was cleanly wiped out and underneath the sea.
That was the year the First Terrorist Organization suffered a major blow that almost took out its foundation.
And Blue Wolf was the reason for it all.
Jason and company hated him to the core and almost killed him that year. They, however, spared him on account of the old witch. The old witch eventually gave the order for all from the First Terrorist Organization to terminate him with extreme prejudice.
This was the moment Jason started to send people after him and tie up loose ends.
Before Ye Wei and Eleven gained their skills, they had trained separately. After they had gained their skills, they traveled around the world and rarely remained with the organization. Given the size of the organization, many branches were connected by a single telephone line and both parties rarely revealed information. When things cropped up, they would then communicate through satellite. They often heard about Jason, Chu Li and company cursing at him but had never seen him in person.
Their hatred for him was even more intense than Chu Li, Jason and company. As they were White Wolf’s most beloved and doted-on disciples, Ye Wei and Eleven, who overlooked their most respected person’s shortcomings, took this affront to the person whom they respected seriously enough and hated him to the core.
“Ye Wei and Eleven.” Blue Wolf coldly smiled. “If your master is no match for me, are the two of your qualified enough?”
Ye Wei had a cold look on her face. “Haven’t you heard of the saying that disciples outperform their masters whilst their masters find themselves obsolete?”
“Arrogance!” Blue Wolf could not be bothered and had a few hints of anger on his face. “I don’t think you two can stand up to me.”
