High-level martial arts: Contract cashback, invincible starting from the Zerg.

At midnight, the city was shrouded in mist and fog, and the moonlight was completely obscured by thick clouds.

The area surrounding the government district was unusually quiet, with only the occasional sound of footsteps from a few squads of military and police officers, which quickly faded into the damp night breeze.

The heavy armored vehicle carrying the war weapon "Ember" was parked in the underground garage.

A faint, cold blue glow and the sound of electronic music leaked out from the gaps in the carriage.

A soldier from the 7th Special Operations Battalion was leaning back in the back seat of a bulletproof vehicle, his feet propped up in the center storage compartment of the front seat, squinting at the three heavy armored vehicles in front of him.

After a while, he finally turned on the communication channel.

"Aren't we being too cautious?" a special operations soldier said loudly, his gaze sweeping across the almost completely enclosed underground parking lot outside the car window. "This is the Midtown Administrative District; there are hundreds of military police and security personnel here. Do we really need to guard it ourselves?"

Soon, a voice came from the other end of the communication channel.

His voice was as steady as a rock.

"The safer a place seems, the easier it is for things to go wrong."

The soldier from the 7th Special Operations Battalion smiled and said leisurely, "Alright."

As graduates of the military elite, the members of the 7th Special Operations Battalion have always been extremely confident in their combat capabilities, and naturally they are unwilling to spend two or three hours guarding this quiet environment.

Just as the two remaining martial gods were chatting idly to pass the time,

A person suddenly entered the underground parking lot.

The sound of military boots treading on the concrete floor grew louder as they approached, echoing softly in the enclosed space.

The soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Battalion, leaning against the back seat of the armored vehicle, instantly became alert, their fingertips silently gripping their kinetic rifles as they looked up at the person.

The newcomer was dressed in the light blue standard battle armor of the Misty Rain City Guard, with the iconic Cloud Wave City emblem engraved on his shoulder armor. A standard straight-bladed sword hung at his waist, and his helmet was tucked into his arm, revealing a slightly tired young face.

With his peak Earth Rank cultivation, he is considered a promising young talent in the Misty Rain City Guard.

He was carrying a multi-layered mahogany food box in each hand, with wisps of white steam rising from the gaps in the lids.

"It's the city guard. I saw them once during the day when they were checking documents." The voice of the Martial God on duty came through the communicator, his tone relaxed. "They're carrying a food box. I guess Captain Han sent them to deliver a midnight snack. Misty Rain City is really thoughtful. They even know we're on night duty and specially sent us something hot."

"Send me some over later," a soldier from the 7th Special Operations Battalion said leisurely.

"it is good."

As they spoke, the member of the Misty Rain City Guard had already walked to the side door of the heavy armored vehicle and gently knocked on the thick alloy door panel.

"Sir, the captain asked me to bring over some late-night snacks. There's beef stew and some steamed buns with meat, just to tide you over."

Soon, the air pressure valve of the armored vehicle emitted a faint hissing sound, and the heavy armored side door slowly opened outward.

However, just as the car door was opened half a foot, the smile on the guard's face suddenly shattered.

His whole body went limp like a lump of flesh, and he collapsed to the ground. The two food boxes in his hands crashed to the ground with a thud, spilling the scalding broth.

The soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Battalion, who were hiding inside the escort vehicle, immediately turned on the communication channel.

"Yang Shuo!! Please respond if you hear me."

"..."

"Yang Shuo! Respond if you hear me!!"

Only crackling static remained on the communication channel; there was no response whatsoever.

The soldier from the 7th Special Operations Battalion felt a sudden sinking feeling in his heart, but his gaze quickly shifted between the slumped guards on the ground and the side door of the heavy armored vehicle.

No, this is really wrong!!

A member of the guard at the peak of the Earth Rank didn't even let out a scream.

As a Heavenly Realm expert, Yang Shuo could not possibly have lost communication in just a few breaths.

Just then, the side door of the armored vehicle made a soft sound from the air pressure valve again.

It doesn't close, but rather slowly pushes open.

A tall figure stepped off the armored vehicle; it was Yang Shuo, who was supposed to be inside.

He was still wearing the combat uniform of the Martial God Palace, but his hands slowly drew the military knife from his waist as he walked towards the 7th Special Forces Battalion soldiers who were lying in wait inside the escort vehicle!

What alarmed the soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Battalion even more was...

Yang Shuo's aura completely changed.

The original upright and imposing aura vanished without a trace, replaced by a thick, inky chill, like an ice cave in the dead of winter, capable of freezing one's bones even from tens of meters away.

Even more terrifying, his eyes had turned completely black, with no whites and no pupils.

The smile that gradually appeared on his face was eerie and mocking, an expression that Yang Shuo would never normally have.

"Damn it!!" The soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Battalion quickly opened the group push channel.

However, the next moment, a sharp blade of light sliced ​​the front of the escort vehicle in two!

......

Meanwhile, Chen Feng and the others, who had spent the afternoon discussing tactics, arrived at the hotel prepared by the city lord.

As you step into the main lobby, a warm, moist atmosphere greets you.

The hotel lobby is decorated in a rather elegant style.

The floor alone was polished so that it could reflect a person's image, and twelve lotus-shaped psionic chandeliers hung overhead, filling the entire space with warm white light.

"This way, please." The hotel lobby manager smiled and led everyone into the corridor on the left.

On one side of the corridor, there is a small inner courtyard where a dozen willows with their tender branches sway in the wind.

The small pond in the courtyard still holds half a pond of clear water, with a few red fish swimming leisurely by, and the water vapor rising in wisps, giving it a touch of the tranquility of a Jiangnan garden.

Li Yuanwei found it fascinating and whispered to Chen Feng, "Wow, this place really smells good."

Just as Chen Feng was about to open his door, a warning from the Martial God on duty suddenly came through his communication headset.

"The rearguard team is calling for help! The rearguard vehicle has been attacked by an unknown target!! The rearguard warrior has been captured!!"

Chen Feng was taken aback.

In a city like this, which already has Heaven-rank experts, the person capable of attacking the Misty Rain City Government Office must not be an unknown individual; they must at least be a Heaven-rank expert.

Not to mention that the escort team had already left two Heavenly Realm experts behind.

Could it be?!

Chen Feng glanced at the bewildered Li Yuanwei beside him, took a step back, and looked at his companions.

Sure enough, more than ten of his fellow martial arts masters also heard the message on their communication headsets and began to communicate with each other by gesturing.

Just then, Zhang Ce's deep voice came through.

"Transportation team, immediately commence combat procedures!! Everyone proceed to the parking lot of the Misty Rain City Municipal Administration!!"
