Chapter 92 92:Hunting The Drug Lord
Leon's squad consists of 4 and Yo Kihwoon is the only one from the military. While You Kihwoon was a Martial Grandmaster, the other two were Grade 3 Superhuman level so Leon could already guess the level of the mission.
He wasn't provided any backdrops about Synder except it is a lawless criminal group with a leader named the organization after his name.
Nothing about his level, about the location, about his men, nothing.
They only know that he was a Drug Lord of the region.
But Leon was sure that there was something more than what meets the eye, cause there are many lawless groups. Order and laws have always been shit when it comes to powerful individuals and only holds for weaker ones in society.
The base of the target was the slums of District 12 at the edge of the Flinford Society of Chalice.
A suitable place for a drug Lord.
......
The night had fallen and the faint silver of the moon had been hidden behind clouds loitering in the sky that also blocked the starlight....
Four people arrived on the dirty streets of District 12. The streets were empty with street lights flickering ominously.
The buildings were shabby and some didn't even have proper roofs while some were on the verge of collapse.
Ropes were hung all around to hang the laundry and dry clothing.
However, only Leon knew the real reason. Except for hanging clothes, it also had another use which was to provide diversion.
If by chance police or someone raids the place, it would be pretty annoying to chase people amidst all these nuisances
Leon walking around took a deep breath.
"Ew!" Lu Yan snickered, covering her nose."Why are you inhaling this foul air so deeply?"
"It just feels nostalgic," Leon answered nonchalantly.
"How, "Steph asked, nudging Leon's shoulder a bit.
"Because it smells the same as those filthy scums of the society."
Steph choked upon hearing this while Lu Yan and Yo Kihwoon stood there in shock and then chuckled.
Yo Kihwoon was relieved to see things going well between the three. The greatest challenge in working with assassins and outsiders was discordance among them which created many conflicts.
"Yo Kihwoon, should we just walk in like this? Aren't there any insiders that know how many men he had, "Leon asked with an inexplicable expression.
"We only know that the Leader Synder might be a cultivator we need to worry about. I was assigned to get rid of him immediately. We don't need a whole army to take on a petty thug do we?"Yo Kihwoon chuckled, making others laugh but Leon just raised his brows looking around by activating his Dragon eyes which also increased his perception.
Entering deeper into the slum, Yo Kihwoon paused and pointed ahead at the building that looked out of place in the dirty slums.
"That's the building where the group hides. He should be on the second floor. We need to approach quietly."
Yo Kihwoon who was about to give another set of instructions paused seeing Leon turning around.
"I don't think there is any point in acting stealthy," Leon interrupted them."We have already been discovered."
The trio's expression contorted with a frown.
"How did you know? "Lu Yan asked in disbelief.
And as if to prove Leon's words right, suddenly gunfire pierced the silenced night as a storm of bullets rained over. They immediately jumped onto the nearest alley to seek cover.
Yo Kihwoon exchanged some serious looks with the others.
Various thoughts ran through everyone's mind like how the other side noticed them.
They hadn't made any movement so how...
'Were are people hidden at the entrance looking at us?'Steph whispered activating the earpiece but he didn't get any reply.
Yo Kihwoon squeezed his head leaning to the side. A man was standing on top of the tall building and assaulted them with a rifle in his hands.
With a wave of his hand, various spots lit up and shots started spewing from many people.
Many men with guns suddenly jumped out from the nearby hiding spots in the alleys and dangled on them.
"Did you think that I would be that easy to be taken down by dumbshit! You son of bitches have been on my tail for a long time and now that you appeared, I shall make an example out of you."Synded who stood afar shouted, taking a puff of his cigar.
Yo Kihwoon pressed the earpiece and shouted"We can't be defensive for long.
Hearing this Steph smiled heartily and suddenly turned to face the wall raising his hands that hardened like rock, he smashed down the wall with a powerful punch to obstruct the enemy's vision.
Yo Kihwoon, with a blur, dashed around avoiding the bullets fired upon seeking cover while Lu Yan pulled out a gun and started firing back while seeking a way to get to a safer place.
Yo Kihwoon and Lu Yan acted sensibly making use of the surroundings to evade the gunfire while Steph went mad charging at the enemy.
"Where did Leon go?"Yo Kihwoon asked amidst this and called for Leon's name.
"Did he get injured?'Lu Yan asked with a solemn expression.
"Don't get distracted. I am gonna be a tank so be prepared."Steph shouted.
Steph's chest bulged and hardened like stones making the bullet bounce off. Running like a mad bull, he directly slammed the two gunners with his huge body.
BOOM!
The two gunner bodies were flung in the air as if hit by a bulldozer throwing them into disarray. Spinning in the air, they slammed on the ground spurting blood.
Steph, who was the only one acting unbridled, was suddenly hit by a large-caliber bullet that burst his chest with a crack
BANG!
Steph's body slid down a few meters due to a hit and on raising his chin, he saw a man with a machine gun locking him from the roof.
"Fuck!"
Cursing his fate, he ran like a madman as the piercing power of the machine bullets could dig holes into his rocky body.
He broke through the wall and ran trying to regroup with others.
"Lu Yan, save me from this asshole."
"Who brings out a military machine gun to street war?"Steph cries, asking Lu Yan to shoot and cover him.
"Serves you right, dumbhead. Who asked you to charge like a madman?" Lu Yan reprimanded him angrily though she fired toward the machine gunner to cover Steph.
On the other hand, while they were able to evade the bullets and pursue, engaging in the play of cat and mouse, they soon found themselves cornered in a dead end as a huge number of men had sealed them off from all sides.
"Is this a gang or a squadron?''Steph screamed aloud, baffled by seeing such a huge number, and looked for Yo Kihwoon.
Snyder appeared behind his man and closing his eyes took a deep breath.
"Mongrels who don't know your place dare to lay a hand on my kingdom. Dont forget that even a dog is like a lion in his street."
Snyder then laughed wildly.
"You have big guts appearing here. As a reward for this, I am shooting you to death until nothing of you....."
Even before Synder could finish his grand speech...
BANG!
The head of the man beside him popped like a watermelon and splashed blood over his face giving him a scare.
