Chapter 713: Assault
It’s nearly four in the morning, and Lin Tian is soaking wet as he just steps onto the deck.
The sea breeze cuts through, sending a cold chill straight to his bones.
Even with the Spiritual Qi shielding his body, Lin Tian can’t help but shiver.
Cold! It’s so damn cold!
Glancing at Chen Moxiang and the others, Lin Tian begins to survey the cargo ship.
There’s not much to see, though. The moonlight tonight isn’t very bright, leaving only a vague outline visible.
The first thing Lin Tian notices about the ship is its size. It’s like a small island on the sea.
He then takes out a night-vision goggle from his bag, puts it on, and everything brightens up, changing the scene instantly.
Earlier, it was pitch black, like a deep abyss in front of him. If it were someone afraid of the dark, their legs would’ve turned to jelly by now.
At this moment, Lin Tian sees stacks of containers piled high, in various colors, neatly arranged like blocks of tofu. But he can’t tell how many there are in total.
As for where the viruses are, even with x-ray vision, Lin Tian can’t see them.
He turns on his x-ray vision next, finding that there’s no one on the deck.
Presumably, everyone is inside the cabin, enjoying the warmth, good food, and fine wine?
Thinking of this, Lin Tian is eager to get this over with and return for a hot shower.
At this time, Chen Moxiang and the others climb aboard as well, also donning night-vision goggles.
"In this damn weather, there shouldn’t be anyone on the deck. Let’s check out the cabin. Combat readiness! Try to take prisoners!" Chen Moxiang commands with the air of a general.
"Yes!"
Responding quietly, everyone shoulders their assault rifles, moving silently towards the cabin like crouching cats.
Why crouch if there’s no one around?
Perhaps, maybe... just out of habit.
Or maybe out of caution, though with this ghost weather, there really shouldn’t be anyone up here.
The cabin is easy to find, located in the center of the cargo ship. Upon reaching here, a beam of light is visible through the skylight of the cabin.
Everyone removes their night-vision goggles and continues deeper into the cabin.
The sides of the cabin hold the crew’s quarters, and light spills from within. Approaching the doors, voices can be heard speaking, but it all sounds like gibberish to Lin Tian.
At this point, Chen Moxiang turns to look at Lie Jiu, asking softly, "What are they saying?"
Lie Jiu glances at the door, squints his eyes, and laughs, "They’re discussing which girl has a bigger butt and which girl has bigger boobs."
Wearing glasses, Lie Jiu’s eyes narrow into slits as he laughs, looking rather obscene.
Lin Tian is taken aback, realizing how terrifying the expression of a seemingly refined person can be when they reveal their true nature.
Hearing this, Chen Moxiang glares with her beautiful eyes, "Next time it’s such filthy talk, don’t bother translating."
Lie Jiu chuckles without saying a word.
Chen Moxiang turns back, looking at the room’s door, and whispers, "Two people per team, search the other rooms. This room is for Lin Tian and me."
Upon hearing Chen Moxiang’s order, no one hesitates, dispersing to stand at the doors of the rooms. Twenty people perfectly make up ten rooms.
Suddenly, Chen Moxiang raises one finger, then slowly adds a second.
Lin Tian understands; it’s a signal. Once the third finger is up, it’s time to breach the door.
Finally, the third finger is raised. Chen Moxiang lifts her shapely leg and kicks hard. With a ’bang,’ the door is smashed open.
Though Chen Moxiang’s beautiful leg exerts force, the gun she holds remains steady, not moving an inch.
At this moment, the doors of the other nine rooms are also kicked open.
Lin Tian, holding a gun, rushes in first, not caring if they can understand, shouting loudly, "Bastards! Hands up!"
After seeing the scene inside the room, his mouth falls open in an O shape.
In the room, there are four people from Sakula Country, all seated around a computer, on which an adult film featuring Sakula actors is playing...
"Perverts!" Chen Moxiang, a pure maiden, can’t bear this ’stimulating’ scene. She immediately curses, "Turn off that filthy video!"
However, the Sakula folk don’t understand what she’s saying. With two pitch-black assault rifles pointed at them, they realize their secret’s out, bringing in authorities from the Celestial Dragon Continent.
What does it feel like to have guns pointed at you? It’s absolutely terrifying! There’s probably nothing more frightening in this world!
Lin Tian looks with disdain, while Chen Moxiang feels both embarrassed and indignant. These people are truly shameless.
At this moment, all Mr. Chen wants to do is mow these individuals down, one by one.
The four people in the room shout something in Sakula language, but neither Lin Tian nor Chen Moxiang understands.
Suddenly, a Sakula individual picks up some scattered clothes from the ground and hurls them towards Lin Tian and Chen Moxiang.
These people have some serious moves; the clothes fan out, spinning like pieces of fabric in a dance, sharp and angular, and if struck, blood would surely be drawn.
"Open fire!" Lin Tian shouts, already pulling the trigger.
Chen Moxiang doesn’t even need Lin Tian to tell her; she’s long past her breaking point.
Just as Jiang Huaisi previously mentioned, this NB-89 is truly formidable, firing over six hundred rounds per minute, averaging about ten shots per second.
The speed is dizzying; at the moment Lin Tian pulls the trigger, the shell casings leap up like a burst of beans, and then ’clatter’ down to the ground.
Only after firing and hearing the deafening gunshots and feeling the recoil can one truly appreciate how exhilarating shooting feels.
Within less than a second, the clothes in front are perforated with holes, light streaming through everywhere. The computer playing the adult film is shot to bits.
Yet Lin Tian noticed something amiss.
What’s amiss?
With so many bullets, there should have been a cloud of blood spray.
This room is so small, where did those people go?
As all the clothes fell to the ground, Lin Tian suddenly saw a flash of cold light before his eyes — a gleaming katana was striking down towards him!
