Reincarnation Paradise: Passion Leads to Greatest Success

Chapter 188 Quick Solution

Inside suite 777, the air was thick with smoke. Two white men sat silently across a table from each other.

"Hey Jeff, how about we surrender?"

Young Russell took a deep drag on his cigar, the thick smoke rolling down his throat. The amount that would be suffocating for an ordinary person only brought him a brief numbness, as if only in this way could he alleviate the unease in his heart.

They've been stuck here for days. Every time they try to leave this area, they feel countless gazes piercing them like needles, and sometimes they even have brief exchanges of blows.

If they hadn't been constantly mingling in densely populated areas, the conflict would probably have broken out long ago.

"No, we will die if we surrender."

Jeff stood up, a cigar dangling from his lips, and paced restlessly around the room. His brows were furrowed on his stubble-covered face as he pondered his next move.

As a seasoned Tier 2 contractor, he has experienced dozens of derivative worlds and certainly wouldn't easily seek death, let alone come to this country and wreak havoc.

He knew that their actions had not only attracted the attention of the Cleaners, but also a large number of independent contractors.

In this situation, it is almost impossible to escape unscathed.

But there was nothing they could do; some foolish guy actually cheated on the commander.

The commander was determined to avenge this, and didn't want to wait even a second longer. They were merely pawns sent to draw enemy fire.

As long as they can stall until the commander succeeds, they can make their escape.

However, several days have passed and they still haven't received any news of a retreat. It seems they are about to be trapped here.

"Have we been abandoned?

Russell stubbed out his cigar, his voice hoarse. Having spent so much time in the park, he knew all too well how unreliable the people here were, even his "partners" in the same adventure group.

Jeff paused, sighed, and sat back down on the sofa. After a moment of silence, he shook his head: "Probably not. If anyone's going to be cannon fodder, it'll be the newbies. With our strength and experience, the adventure team isn't extravagant enough to use us as cannon fodder."

"no."

Russell's eyes suddenly hardened. "I'm leaving first thing tomorrow morning."

"How do I get there?"

Jeff looked up at him. In fact, he had already had the same thought. The commander's anger was terrible, but survival was everything.

A cold glint flashed across Russell's face: "Isn't capturing a few ordinary people what they care about most? As long as we have hostages and handle things carefully, the chances of getting back are high."

"Let's do it that way then."

Jeff laughed.

That's exactly what he was waiting for. If the regimental commander investigated later, there would be someone to take the blame.

Russell understood this, of course, but he was unwilling to accept that after struggling in Paradise for so long, he had died such a miserable death.

Beep—click.

The sound of the door lock turning suddenly rang out.

The two of them were startled at the same time, and then looked warily towards the door.

The entire hotel had been emptied long ago, and even the remaining staff were cleaners in disguise.

At this point, who would have the master key to open their door?

Could it be that they've come to negotiate?

After the door was opened, a thick white mist of smoke billowed out of the room.

"With such a strong smell of smoke, why don't you two open the windows to let in some fresh air?"

Fang Yu smiled, waved the smoke in front of her eyes, and stepped naturally into the room.

"Are you here to negotiate?"

Russell quickly stood up, alarm bells ringing in his mind. His senses were completely unresponsive to the person in front of him!

Jeff stepped forward with a grave expression and stood beside Russell. He quietly slipped one hand behind his back and gripped the gun handle tightly.

This man—you can't even hear his footsteps, he's definitely not someone to mess with.

"Negotiation?" Fang Yu's smile widened. "Is it necessary?"

boom----

Gunshots rang out, and flashes of light appeared.

Jeff pulled the trigger with extreme decisiveness; his hostile intentions were written all over his face. Since they were enemies, there was no need for further words.

bite----

Fang Yu raised his wrist, and the hilt of his knife precisely deflected the bullet. The bullet struck the wall, leaving a white mark, and then bounced to the ground, spinning and emitting a faint hum on the carpet between the two of them.

Gurgle————

The sound of swallowing saliva was jarringly clear in the deathly silent room.

Jeff felt his throat go dry; the other party's nonchalant block instantly extinguished the fighting spirit he had just mustered.

Russell turned pale. As a mage, he could only fight with firearms in the real world. This scene was the biggest blow to him. Firearms were useless. How could he fight with his head?

"Is there anything you want to explain? My patience is limited."

Fang Yu spoke calmly, glancing down to inspect the knife handle. After confirming there were no scratches, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Surrender is possible."

""

boom----

Before Russell could finish speaking, Jeff turned around abruptly, smashed through the glass in one swift motion, and leaped out of the window!

He wouldn't die from a fall from the seventh floor.

He had absolutely no confidence in fighting this man in black, and he felt no guilt whatsoever about betraying his teammates at crucial moments.

Looking at the broken window, Russell gave a bitter smile. He also wanted to betray his teammates, but he was a mage, and in the real world—his legs were simply too short.

bang————

"ah!!"

A scream came from outside the window. Jeff had been thrown back out the window again, crashing heavily to the ground, clutching his face and howling in pain—half of his face was a bloody mess.

Mia was already waiting outside, wearing a spiked tiger claw, waiting for the unlucky guy to walk right into her trap.

The moment Jeff smashed the glass, what came into view was a fist that rapidly enlarged in his field of vision.

"It seems you have nothing more to say."

Fang Yu's smile turned cold.

Clang—

The black blade was drawn, accompanied by a chilling low hum.

Bang bang bang————

Realizing that the man in black wouldn't let them go, Jeff and Russell stopped thinking about surrendering and running away.

He's a seasoned veteran in the amusement park, and when it comes to risking his life, he doesn't hesitate for a second.

Four pistols fired simultaneously, flashes of light appeared, and the smell of gunpowder filled the air once more.

Ding ding ding————

The black blade danced in Fang Yu's hand, forming a dense, gleaming curtain of blades that precisely cleaved all the bullets away, sending sparks flying in the air.

Click click—

"I'm reloading! Suppress him! Don't let him get close, he's a melee specialist!"

Russell frantically changed the magazine.

Just looking at that flash of blades sent chills down his spine. He just hoped that Jeff could hold on for a few more seconds, even just two or three.

Zheng————

A jet-black blade of light suddenly slashed across, moving at a speed invisible to the naked eye, passing through the waists of the two men, then effortlessly piercing through the wall and disappearing into the night sky, only vanishing silently hundreds of meters away.

Outside the hotel, Wei Dong and the cleaners, who were closely monitoring the situation, only saw a neat crack suddenly appear in the wall of room 777, through which the light from the room shone.

"That swordsmanship—" someone exclaimed in a low voice. In fact, they didn't see the blade's edge at all; it was too fast and blended into the night. They only saw the room suddenly cleaved open by a single stroke.

Didi————

The phone rang.

Wei Dong's phone rang. When he answered, Mia's clear and playful voice came through: "It's resolved. Go in and clean up the mess."

"Okay, okay, thank you so much both of you."

Wei Dong thanked him repeatedly, his tone full of surprise.

Mia responded with two "uh-huhs" on the other end of the phone and then hung up.
