Chapter 134: A Killing Spree!

However, at the very instant he pulled out his gun, Takov had already turned his head to look over with indifferent eyes, while simultaneously raising his hand to point lightly.

In just a flash, all his movements were frozen in place, and even the thought of wanting to fire his gun was frozen and solidified; then, he watched helplessly as the other party casually turned the muzzle and spat out tongues of fire.

Tat-tat-tat!

Three consecutive shots, and three blood holes burst out on his forehead, with even the back of his head being directly blown away by the impact, flesh and blood splattering everywhere.

Moros fell backward with a stiff face and a terrifying expression, while Lu Yuan, in the guise of Takov, coldly stepped over the corpse and arrived in the corridor.

At this moment, hearing the continuous gunfire, several Sha'e Guards who had just rushed up from the stairs appeared in the corridor, looking with extreme horror at "Takov" as he walked out of Aojinniezi's office holding a gun.

And before they could open their mouths to shout a challenge, Lu Yuan had already raised the muzzle and pulled the trigger.

Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!

Amidst the dense gunfire, the two guards who poked their heads out first immediately burst into blood flowers and fell to the ground instantly like sieves, while the other guards holding guns retreated in terror, shrinking back into the stairwell.

Lu Yuan did not tangle with these people; a pitch-black hand grenade appeared in his hand, and he threw it out in an instant.

Boom!

The hand grenade exploded, firelight bloomed surgingly, walls shattered, shrapnel flew through the air, and the shockwave caused the entire floor to shake violently, while the two guards closest to it were also blown away.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan gave a dark laugh, a machine short gun appeared in his other hand, and in a flash, he arrived at the stairwell to continue firing wildly.

Whether it was the hand grenade just now or the machine short gun in his hand, they were naturally left behind when the Sha'e Sun-Shining dispatched a squad to attack his residence a long time ago.

At the time, he felt these pieces of equipment might be useful later, so he kept them and stored them in his Pot Heaven Bag; today, they happened to come in handy.

Just like that, amidst his wild, storm-like barrage with dual guns, the guards at the stairwell, who had been shaken into a daze, were all shot like sieves, dense blood flowers bursting from their bodies; they met the King of Hell before they could even manage to fire back.

"Damn it, where is the shooting coming from!?"

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

"On the third floor, the floor of General Aojinniezi!"

Such a huge commotion naturally alarmed the entire side building, and in an instant, noisy and angry shouts and footsteps came from the first and second floors.

Although he could not understand this bird language, Lu Yuan did not say a word and took several more hand grenades from his Pot Heaven Bag, throwing them straight down the stairwell.

Boom, boom, boom—!

Violent explosions occurred one after another, mixed with heart-wrenching screams; who knows how many Sha'e People preparing to rush up to investigate were killed or wounded by the blasts.

Lu Yuan did not go downstairs to check; instead, he changed his magazine, smashed through the corridor window, leaped down from the third floor, and then turned around to fire wildly at the entire Military Intelligence Department side building:

Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat

Bullets were like a violent storm, shattering one glass window after another; the Sha'e People working inside immediately let out terrified screams and dodged, while some with combat training immediately hid in the corners of the windows to observe, then let out exclamations:

"That, that is... Takov!?"

"It is Takov! He's crazy, how does he dare?!"

"Quick, shoot this madman!"

When they discovered that this chaotic attack was actually the work of Takov, every Sha'e person in the entire side building who saw it with their own eyes was terrified to the extreme, unable to believe their own eyes.

The Consulate, the Military Intelligence Department—these were the core areas of the Concession, and now with Aojinniezi, a Title War God, sitting in command, Takov's current actions could no longer be described as madness or insanity; it was as if a devil had possessed him!

In several offices on the first and second floors, many Sha'e People carried guns, and immediately some hid by the walls, pulled out their guns, and fired back from a distance.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—

Violent and dense gunfire rang out at the same time; for a moment, at least seven or eight people from over ten windows were firing at Lu Yuan, and one or two with decent marksmanship even landed direct hits.

However, under the dual protection of the Obstacle Clothing and the Staff-Sending, Lu Yuan only felt his body shake slightly and was completely unharmed, retreating rapidly while firing.

During this process.

Many Sha'e soldiers from the neighboring Consulate and those guarding the main gate had already discovered the emergency situation here, and they all rushed over while shouting wildly, even drawing their guns to fire.

Lu Yuan's figure flashed like a ghost, dodging the sheets of gunfire, while simultaneously turning his muzzle to fire wantonly, sweeping down all the soldiers who had come out first, then exerting force with his feet to speed away and retreat.

While retreating, he also threw several hand grenades one after another, accurately tossing them toward the pursuing troops and the entrance of the Consulate.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom...

Several earth-shaking roars, firelight bursting, shockwaves impacting, and ripples sweeping through; some unlucky souls even had their limbs blown off amidst screams, and whether they were the pursuers coming out of the Consulate or those who had just rushed out of the Military Intelligence Department, they were instantly blown down in droves, with flesh and blood everywhere.

And Lu Yuan's figure flashed rapidly out of the Consulate compound amidst these explosions and disappeared.

Rolling smoke and dust filled the air, blocking the line of sight; after a full ten seconds or so, the smoke and dust dissipated, and except for some unlucky ones, the other soldiers on the ground climbed up one after another, then chased out in extreme shock and anger.

However, after rushing to the outside of the compound, they saw that the main road outside was empty—where was there any shadow of Takov?

Having lost their target and lacking further orders from their superiors, these soldiers were suddenly shocked, angry, and at a loss.

The Sha'e Empire was one of the top powers in the world, and they were invincible on the battlefield; in times of war, these people's combat skills were actually not bad, but they had never imagined that someone would dare to go on a killing spree in the Consulate, or even the Military Intelligence Department where Aojinniezi was sitting in command, let alone that the person was the former Consul, Takov!

"Damn it, what is going on?!"

At this moment, at the entrance of the Consulate, a tall, middle-aged Sha'e brute rushed out with several people holding guns, looking at the bewildered soldiers at the door and roaring in anger:

"Who is it, who is attacking us!?"

This person was the newly appointed Consul, Sergei.

Among the dust-covered Sha'e soldiers, one who looked like an officer immediately turned his head and roared a report:

"Consul Sergei, it is Takov! It is Takov who attacked the Military Intelligence Department and killed many people!"

What?

Having not seen the scene of Lu Yuan's slaughter in time, Sergei's head buzzed, and his face turned ferocious as he said:

"Absurd! What kind of nonsense are you spouting? Takov is the former Consul; why would he attack the Military Intelligence Department?"

As his successor, he naturally knew Takov, and he also knew that recently, the other party had been very close to Aojinniezi, the Cross Star General, seemingly helping him carry out some mission.

Under these circumstances, to say that Takov dared to hold a gun and attack the Military Intelligence Department with Aojinniezi in command was simply a nonsensical, low-level joke!

"It is indeed Takov!"

Then, seeing that Sergei did not believe him at all, the officer hurriedly roared:

"We, and everyone in the Military Intelligence Department, saw it clearly; there is absolutely no mistake!"

Just as his voice fell, from the direction of the side building belonging to the Military Intelligence Department, a Sha'e Empire soldier suddenly poked his head out of a third-floor window and let out a scream of extreme terror:

"It's bad! General Aojinniezi is dead!"

"General Aojinniezi was killed by Takov!"

The shouting echoed over the Consulate; Sergei and the dozen or so Sha'e Empire soldiers present were stunned at first, then their expressions changed wildly, and without a second thought, they sprinted toward the side building.

These men had excellent physical fitness, and in just a few breaths' time, they went straight up to the third floor, then, ushered by the soldier who had just reported the news, they rushed anxiously toward Aojinniezi's office.

Subsequently, they first saw Moros lying at the entrance of the office,

and immediately after rushing into the office, they discovered Aojinniezi lying in a pool of blood on the floor, completely silent.

The crowd was horrified; when they stepped forward to lift him up, they discovered that Aojinniezi's face was covered in bullet holes, and even one of his eyeballs had been pierced by a bullet; he was clearly dead beyond any doubt.

"General, sir!?"

Seeing this tragic situation, Sergei and the others were all terrified and soul-shattered, letting out loud cries.

Aojinniezi was a Cross Star General of the Sha'e Empire, a Title War God, and a member of a top-tier noble family with a thousand-year heritage; such a figure was at the very pinnacle of the cultivation and power pyramid in the country, towering above hundreds of millions of people, yet now he had died in the Concession; no one could believe such a situation!!

Sergei's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at the soldier who had just reported the news with a terrifying expression:

"You said General Aojinniezi was killed by Takov!?"

That soldier was covered in blood, with traces of fire and smoke everywhere, seemingly affected by a Hand Grenade explosion; his eyes were full of terror, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"That's right, it was Takov!"

"We were all on the second floor just now, and then suddenly we heard gunfire on the third floor, so we immediately rushed up to check the situation, and as a result, we saw Takov holding a Machine Short Gun walking out of General Aojinniezi's office, and he opened fire without mercy the moment he saw us!"

"Caught off guard, two of us were killed on the spot, and then several more were blown up by the Hand Grenades he threw; I saw it clearly, there can be no mistake!"

As his voice fell, Sergei's gaze froze, and he muttered to himself:

"How could this be? How could Takov have the ability to kill General Aojinniezi..."

Not to mention Takov's motive.

In terms of cultivation strength alone, Takov, as the former Consul, had only barely reached the Fifth Tier of Savage Martial Arts as a Glorious Fighter; facing a top expert like Aojinniezi, he would be crushed to death in an instant.

Even if he were holding a firearm, it would be impossible to hit such an expert given their reaction and speed, so how exactly did Takov kill Aojinniezi?

"Quick, quick!"

In this situation, there was no time to think; Sergei felt a chill through his body and mind, the veins on his forehead throbbing, and he roared with a trembling voice:

"Find Takov, find him!"

"If he escapes, we will all die a miserable death!"

Everyone immediately came to their senses, then rushed out of the side building in a panic, gathered dozens of men, and then charged out of the Consulate compound, splitting up to search for Takov's tracks.

In such a critical situation, Sergei, as the Consul, naturally could not stay out of it, and he personally led a team straight to Takov's residence.

Takov's garden villa was only one kilometer away from the Consulate; when he arrived in a great hurry with his men, he immediately saw that the door to Takov's residence was wide open, and he immediately acted as if facing a great enemy, flashing to both sides of the wall with his soldiers to observe inside.

The house was deathly quiet, and it was impossible to judge whether Takov was inside; Sergei gritted his teeth and gave a hand signal, and then the elite soldiers beside him with rich combat experience quickly moved out in turns, arriving at both sides of the villa to take their positions.

During this process, they did not encounter any attacks; the leading Colonel listened and observed for a while, still not sensing anyone in the house, and immediately gave a hand signal to the soldiers under his command.

However, at this very moment, a gunshot suddenly rang out from inside the house!

"Takov is inside!"

Everyone was suddenly terrified, their bodies tensing up instantly, fearing that a few Hand Grenades might be thrown out from the house, and they prepared to dodge at any moment.

However, after standing guard as if facing a great enemy for a while, the house returned to silence; the leading officer gritted his teeth and gave a signal with his eyes, then was the first to sneak into the house, and the other dozen or so soldiers followed one after another.

During this process, they still did not encounter any attacks; behind the entrance hall was the living room, and as soon as he snuck in and pressed against the wall, he suddenly saw a tall figure sitting splayed out on the sofa to the side of the door, holding a pistol, with his head tilted back and a charred, bloody hole in his temple.

The many Sha'e Empire soldiers recognized clearly that this figure, who seemed to have committed suicide by shooting himself, was none other than Takov, who had almost bathed the Consulate in blood just moments ago!

The leading officer was extremely shocked and turned his head to call out: "Mr. Sergei, Takov is dead!"

"What?"

Outside the door, Sergei rushed into the living room and walked up with extreme suspicion, only to see Takov with his eyes wide open, his mouth agape, his neck tilted back, and his service pistol still in his hand; it looked as if he had committed suicide out of fear of punishment during that gunshot just now.

"Damn it..."

Staring fixedly at Takov's remains, he roared:

"You bastard, you actually committed suicide to escape punishment?"

The officer behind him pointed to the floor and reminded him:

"Mr. Sergei, look!"

Sergei hurriedly lowered his head and immediately saw two Machine Short Guns scattered at Takov's feet; they seemed to be the very ones the other party had used to assassinate Aojinniezi at the Consulate just now.

Without touching the two Machine Short Guns, Sergei's face turned livid as he searched Takov's body and the surrounding area, but he found nothing at all.

"Still warm, he definitely died not long ago, but there's no suicide note?"

He immediately roared and issued an order:

"Search this house for me immediately, see if there are any suicide notes, letters, or other anomalies!"

The dozen or so soldiers immediately took the order and scattered to begin searching the room.

A moment later, having searched both floors of the villa, the soldiers returned to the living room to report that they had not found any suicide notes, letters, or anything of the sort.

"Strange..."

The leading officer stared at the still-warm body of Takov on the sofa and said with suspicion:

"Mr. Sergei, why on earth would Takov suddenly go crazy and attack the Military Intelligence Department and General Aojinniezi? General Aojinniezi died in his own office; how on earth did Takov bring these two Machine Short Guns inside?"

Sergei's face twitched, his chest heaved, and he gritted his teeth:

"Why don't you mention that with General Aojinniezi's astonishing strength as a Title War God, ordinary machine gun fire couldn't do anything to him, so how could he be killed by Takov? Who am I supposed to ask about these questions!"

"Seal the scene immediately, suppress the news, and then conduct a comprehensive investigation into all of Takov's movements and tracks over these past days; we must find the reason for this bastard's rebellion and attack! If we don't investigate this clearly, you and I will both have to pack our bags and go home to farm!"
