Strongest Soldier King

The moonlight was like water, gently covering the high-end villas. The street lights flickered, and the shadows of the trees swayed. The villas were brightly lit, and a gentle night breeze blew, taking away the heat in the air. Under a streetlight, moths fluttered towards the light, got burned, and fell down, more moths rushing to the flame, playing out a poignant scene.

At some unknown point in time, a figure appeared under the dark tree shadows beside the streetlight. His eyes flickered with a cold light, donned entirely in black form-fitting clothes, as he coldly watched the villa ahead. After a few minutes of observation, he suddenly made a few hand gestures towards people behind him and quietly sneaked forward, moving slowly and silently, like a hungry wolf in the night.

Before long, five remote-controlled aircraft appeared in the sky, flying at about three hundred meters height. No sound could be heard from below, and under the cover of night, they advanced silently and ghost-like towards a standalone luxury villa, quickly approaching it without arousing any suspicion.

Soon, the five remote-controlled aircraft hovered over the luxurious villa, dropped cylindrical objects, and then turned around, vanishing into the night. The speed at which these cylindrical objects descended was extraordinarily quick, and combined with night cover, they hit the ground without making a sound, leaving those who saw it to think it was an illusion. Upon a second glance, the objects had already landed in the grass, impossible to locate.

In the shadow of the trees, the figure with wolf-like eyes coldly watched the scene unfold. After waiting a while and seeing that it drew no suspicion, a mocking smile appeared in his cold gaze. He took out a remote and decisively pressed one of the buttons.

Inside the villa, in the command room, Lan Xing, through the motion sensors deployed outside, keenly noticed something abnormal. The National Blade Equipment Team developed this motion sensor, which is distinct from others. It not only detects human motion responses but also mechanical movements and other objects. After the cylindrical objects fell, the sensors captured them sensitively and automatically sent the signal to Lan Xing.

Luo Zheng, Lan Xue, and Hong Meihua were chatting in the living room. Hearing Lan Xing's alarm, they quickly came over. Lan Xing tapped on the keyboard, and the screen showed the surveillance of objects falling. Luo Zheng asked Lan Xing to zoom in, and they found it to be a cylindrical object. While still puzzled, they saw the cylinder suddenly split into two, with thick white smoke emerging rapidly.

"Poison gas attack?" Hong Meihua whispered in astonishment.

"Poison gas?" Luo Zheng looked at the cylindrical object in surprise, his face turning cold as he quickly ordered through the earpiece, "Attention everyone, put on your anti-poison masks. We are under enemy attack. Do not leave your defensive positions, and do not take any actions without orders."

With anti-poison masks, there's no need to worry about being poisoned. Luo Zheng looked at the electronic screen coldly and said, "Charlie attacked us from underground before, making it hard to defend. This time it's from the air—a clever tactic. If we hadn't installed motion sensors, we would have been caught. But this method is a bit low-level compared to the hard-to-defend underground attack. Could it not be Charlie?"

"Probably not Charlie," Hong Meihua also said doubtfully.

"Whoever it is, since they've come, let them stay." Lan Xue said murderously.

"Makes sense," Luo Zheng agreed, looking at Hong Meihua and Lan Xue. The two understood and went upstairs to protect the mother and daughter. Since a showdown was inevitable, it was essential to ensure their task remained intact.

Before long, Lan Xing noticed the flashing red light on the nearby electronic equipment and quickly said, "The enemy has penetrated the perimeter. The opponent has anti-infrared detectors. Our hidden sensors detected the signal source of the anti-infrared detectors right outside."

Not only were hidden detectors installed around, but there were also anti-detection sensors. As soon as the enemy comes, the infrared detectors will discover them. If the other side has anti-detection devices, the sensors will discover them too. This combination of overt and covert equipment was ineffective for Charlie's underground sewer attacks but had immediate effects on surface attacks, allowing Luo Zheng to breathe a sigh of relief and ask, "Can you estimate how many people there are?"

"We have found an enemy spot and need some time," Lan Xing quickly said.

"Okay," Luo Zheng agreed and shouted through the earpiece, "All units, hold your positions, do not speak, stay hidden, wait for my signal, visible watchmen pretend to faint, make sure to find cover before falling over, don't become sitting ducks."

Soft touching sounds came through the earpiece, indicating acknowledgement. Luo Zheng's eyes remained locked on the electronic screen. Before long, Lan Xing excitedly shouted, "There are enemies in four directions, numbers unknown. It might be a large-scale operation. If it's not Charlie, then it's other assassins realizing we're difficult to deal with and have banded together."

"Want to solve the problem in one go? Perfect," Luo Zheng started in surprise, then said murderously, "Everyone, be alert. Wait for my order. The ones coming in are all big targets. Tonight, we'll avenge the fallen police officers. Be ready."

After some time, Luo Zheng saw through the electronic screen that the investigation team found places to fall over, looking pinned down. Shortly, a figure appeared on the surveillance screen, with cold eyes and a fierce gleam, resembling Charlie in stature. Luo Zheng was startled and quickly said, "Investigate this person immediately."

"Understood," Lan Xing quickly replied, capturing the opponent's appearance and running it through a program for skull 3D scanning. Before long, a lot of text appeared next to it. Lan Xing's eyes lit up with joy and said, "It's Charlie, who didn't expect this bastard to show up."

"Huh?" Luo Zheng was revitalized hearing it was Charlie. On a closer look, he noticed the opponent retreat, a cold gaze flashing with mockery, causing him to exclaim in surprise, "Why did he run? What is he planning? Could there be another plan in place?"

"It's possible Charlie sensed things were hopeless and decided to use other assassins to retaliate, disrupting our ranks so he could take advantage and leave." Hong Meihua quickly transmitted through the earpiece, as one of the people who knew Charlie best, swiftly sensing Charlie's unusual behavior and escape intentions, promptly reminded him.

"Running away?" Luo Zheng exclaimed in astonishment and quickly said, "Ghost Hand, Snow Leopard, Mountain Eagle, follow me, let's catch this bastard. Xue Er, you take command of the battle."

"Understood, be careful." Lan Xue quickly replied.

"Wait, if you go out, it'll expose our details. The people on the periphery who have not attacked yet will retreat. Perhaps Charlie exposed himself on purpose to test our capabilities," Hong Meihua quickly reminded, wisely advising Luo Zheng to prioritize the mission over revenge.
