The piercing alarm sounded at this moment throughout the underground complex.
Countless footsteps started to approach from outside, one after another.
Beneath the dim emergency lights, squad after squad of silent soldiers ran over, guns raised and aimed in this direction, encircling the giant hole that Mu Fan had broken open.
Snapping sounds of magnetostorms came from the muzzles, with blue electric sparks flaring intermittently.
Military standard arc guns, with an effective lethal radius of less than 10 meters, the powerful current was enough to stun a person.
Fully armed soldiers, wearing special tactical helmets, at this moment, no one could see their eyes.
But that did not stop the terrifying impact of the destroyed entrance before them!
Someone dared to use explosive weapons within the Special Service Department's base.
"Captain Wu Ju reporting to the officer, may I ask... has someone used heavy weapons here?" Wu Ju was not directly under the command of Rong Wei and the others, they were responsible for the security of the entire base, so naturally, he could inquire.
Hearing Wu Ju's question, Rong Wei finally suppressed the shock in her heart.
The steel gate, weighing more than a ton, had been kicked straight out of the concrete frame by Mu Fan...
"No one used weapons."
Wu Ju's puzzled gaze lingered on Rong Wei and Li Cheng's faces; his tactical helmet allowed him to clearly see the shock on their faces.
What exactly was going on?
"Over there, the subject of the investigation kicked the door out."
Seeing that Rong Wei remained silent, Li Cheng finally coughed and spoke up, pointing over there... at Mu Fan.
It was then that Captain Wu cast an incredulous look into the cavity.
There, a tall youth dressed in an academy uniform stood quietly.
"Lieutenant Colonel Li, are you saying him? This is a pure steel gate, weighing 1.7 tons!"
Wu Ju murmured to himself, being at the Special Service Department for a long time indeed made one used to seeing special people, but so far, he had never seen such an abnormal existence.
Finally, Rong Wei spoke up, her voice not loud but clear enough to hear.
"Captain Wu, you just follow the regulations of the Special Service Department base."
Hearing this, Wu Ju saluted crisply.
"Yes!"
"Everyone, be on alert."
Then Wu Ju raised his arc gun toward Mu Fan,
"The person inside, get on your knees with your hands on your head, and accept our compulsory measures. If you refuse, we have the right to shoot, and we cannot guarantee your safety. Please cooperate with our work."
After saying this, Wu Ju used tactical signals to call a team to follow him forward; he then glanced to the left and saw the all-steel gate completely embedded in another concrete wall.
With a chill in his heart, the electric sparks from his arc gun became even denser.
Anger was already rising in Mu Fan's heart.
Thwarting him time and again, these disgraceful little tricks by Rong Wei were truly annoying to him.
It seemed that with his identity as a Reserve Officer, all punishments for him couldn't avoid going through the Military Department, and even the Tang family's influence had to act within the military system and use military means to deal with him.
However, this Special Service Department was truly disappointing to him.
Doing too many unspeakable things, they seemed to have forgotten how to act openly and honorably.
"I was just walking out normally, your Lieutenant Colonel said there's no need to compensate for a broken door."
Mu Fan shrugged his shoulders and took a step forward, intending to leave.
"Don't move!"
Wu Ju shouted sharply.
At this point, a figure appeared from behind the crowd behind Wu Ju, another solder holding an arc gun stepped forward, coming to Wu Ju's side and looking at Mu Fan from a distance of seven or eight meters.
"Now that you have damaged the Special Service Department's base, I'm afraid you can't leave."
Hearing that familiar mocking tone, Mu Fan's eyes narrowed; it was the Major he had seen stepping out of the armored car earlier.
Xiang Shan!
Having donned a full set of gear, he reappeared before him.
Mu Fan let out a cold laugh, ignoring the warning gazes and the numerous gun barrels, and decisively stepped out from the breached entrance.
"Lieutenant Colonel Rong, don't you have anything to say to these people?"
Rong Wei's face flickered, but still, she did not speak, glancing shiftingly at the questioning look from Wu Ju.
Finally, the seemingly cold but striking female officer solemnly addressed Wu Ju: "I only told him to wait patiently, and he is to bear all consequences himself, Captain Wu, act according to the regulations."
After saying this, she quickly retreated behind Wu Ju.
When these words and actions occurred, the atmosphere on site instantly became tense, even somewhat frozen.
Finally, faces had been torn...
Mu Fan revealed a sly smile, looking over at Rong Wei, who was hiding ten meters away.
"I never thought... a woman could be so shameless."
Shaking his head, Mu Fan continued walking forward.
However, at that moment, Wu Ju's gun barrel was completely raised, aiming at Mu Fan's upper body.
"Last warning! Stop! This is the base of the Special Service Department."
Seeing Rong Wei's action, who could fail to understand her intention? Regardless of whether she played it cool or hot, the other party dared to openly insult an officer at their base.
This was absolutely unforgivable.
What's more, he was just someone who came to be investigated. What right did he have to be so arrogant here?
Wu Ju felt rage starting to build within him, and he directly pulled the tactical headset over his ear.
"Fourth, fifth, and sixth guard teams, quickly assemble in area B7. We have a person violently resisting arrest."
Upon hearing this, Rong Wei finally revealed an undisguised sense of satisfaction on her face, and her voice carried an indescribable hatred as she spoke.
"You've completely offended this place now. Don't even think about leaving here today! I now have the right to suspect you've come with the intent to destroy the base."
With one sentence, Rong Wei set the tone of the situation.
From that point on, Wu Ju and the others had reason to open fire.
"Finally showing your true colors?"
The sinister look in Mu Fan's eyes grew stronger, and he revealed a mysterious smile as he lifted his wrist and gently pressed down. First came a low inquiry, then a clear female voice rang out, echoing in the space.
"If I kick something and break it, do I have to pay?"
"Even if you tear down this whole house, you don't have to pay!"
...
Silence fell around them, Rong Wei's face turning red and white by turns, finally screaming out in a sharp voice, "Catch this suspicious saboteur destroying the base now! Xiang Shan, take action!"
Over there, fully armed Major Xiang Shan, hearing this, finally let out a wild laugh. He had been waiting for this moment. He lifted the arc gun in his hand, instantly setting the power to its maximum—a current strong enough to stun a giant beast weighing a ton!
Then he aimed at the silhouette standing at the mouth of the cave and pressed the electric button.
With a crackling sound, a bolt of lightning struck out!
This action served as a signal, and behind him, arcs of electricity flashed in an instant.
Soldiers from the guard team, led by Xiang Shan, pressed their electric buttons simultaneously.
"A bunch of... trash!"
Mu Fan's words, cold as a knife's edge, spilled from his lips. At the moment when Xiang Shan lifted his wrist, Mu Fan's right hand suddenly gripped the uniform button of the academy and pulled sharply outward!
He flung his entire coat in front of him.
Crackle—the arcs of electricity flashed!
Just 0.5 seconds quicker, but that was enough to ensure that the spinning, unfolding coat completely blocked the arcs of electricity in front of Mu Fan, as each beautiful and powerful arc burned holes through the coat.
But the evil in Mu Fan's eyes only intensified. His figure retreated like lightning, and as his left foot stepped back, he gently flicked upward.
A chunk of concrete that had fallen when the heavy door was destroyed was hooked by the sole of his foot into the air.
Then, leveraging against the wall next to him, he performed an explosive aerial spin.
His right foot lashed out fiercely.
Bang!
The sound of a stone bullet exploding rang out, and a dark shadow, carrying a fierce gust, shot out.
The shadow passed through the rotating, torn coat in mid-air, and with that coat, hit Xiang Shan in the chest before anyone could react.
A spurt of blood mist sprayed out, and Wu Ju didn't even have time to react, only feeling a chilling whistling wind flash by his ear.
Then Xiang Shan's robust body was lifted away, slamming heavily into a random shelf behind them.
The entire shelf was instantly carried away by the unstoppable kinetic energy.
Boom, boom, boom!
Xiang Shan was completely buried under the scattered items from the shelf.
Leaving behind only a four-to-five-meter-long trail of blood mist on the ground.
And this, like a fuse, finally completely ignited the atmosphere on the scene.
"Switch weapons!"
"Load live rounds!"
In the midst of Wu Ju's stern shouting, the soldiers holstered their short arc guns, and amid a series of clicking sounds, semi-automatic Pulse Rifles were all taken off safety.
Hiding inside the interrogation room, Mu Fan leaned against the wall, closing his eyes and listening to the clicking sounds beside his ear.
However, there wasn't a trace of nervousness on his face; instead, an increasingly broad, mocking smile curled at his lips...
"Heh, heh, heh, a bunch of chicken and dog lowlifes!"
A low, cold laugh, as if from the bitter chill of the far north, echoed.
Mu Fan's eyes suddenly snapped open. In the dark room, at that instant, two cold, red glow fiercely appeared!
