Extreme germ phobia

Chapter 305 Rebellion against Tiangang
Lu Wei was in a state of great inner turmoil.

Having finally defeated the enemy, he didn't want to go crazy with Ouyang, but Ouyang was not only his comrade, but also a target he had to protect.

This is really frustrating.

Lu Wei's skills are inferior to Ou Yang's. Even if he launches a sneak attack, he may not be able to subdue his opponent. Moreover, once he uses his full strength, he cannot control the force of his attacks. If he loses, he will be beaten; if he wins, he will lose face. He is caught in the middle.

There was no other way. Since he couldn't beat them, he had to join them. At least Ouyang was still within his sight. If they encountered danger, he could help keep an eye on them and prevent Ouyang from acting rashly and fighting Old Mi to the death.

Lu Wei immediately offered his suggestion: "Neither of us can wear this. Let's go outside and change!"

After saying that, he opened the air-raid shelter and quickly found a dark-skinned man who was about the same size as Ou Yang: "You two are about the same size, change into these!"

"Change to his?" Ou Yang looked surprised, glancing at the bloody hole in Blackie's chest with a hint of disgust.

"What? Don't want to wear dead people's clothes?" Lu Wei raised an eyebrow, his gaze defiant.

As he spoke, he chose his target and deftly stripped off his clothes.

Ou Yang shook his head: "I've crawled through piles of corpses, why would I care about this? I just think that wearing this outfit is not as good as wearing US military uniforms. Aren't there a few armored vehicles outside? How about we disguise ourselves as US soldiers and drive away in armored vehicles?"

Lu Wei's eyes lit up: "Great idea!"

At this moment, Xiu Shidun is unable to move an inch in any other capacity; even police officers and security guards cannot wander around freely.

But the US military personnel are different; they are personnel carrying out special missions and have certain privileges.

The two immediately left the office and rushed to their previous hiding place as quickly as possible. Without even glancing at the American soldiers in the corridor, they went straight into the room and changed into two sets of better-looking clothes.

The American soldiers in the corridor were riddled with holes by drones, their bodies riddled with bloody wounds. Even if they were torn off, they couldn't wear their clothes. Otherwise, if someone saw them, they would be shocked—after being shot so many times, covered in blood, yet still alive and kicking, were they some kind of zombie?

Moreover, even today, many Americans still consider Pneumococcus to be a T-virus, and Lu Wei doesn't want to be mistaken for a zombie by them.

Not only did he change his clothes, but he also changed his equipment to Mi-class rifles. Ouyang got a big pineapple and went to the rooftop to pick up a Barrett.

He also brought a rifle, a full twelve magazines, and his tactical vest was covered in bullets.
Heavy weapons are not suitable for relocation; rifles are essential.

Lu Wei's eyes widened in disbelief.

He also suffers from severe firepower deficiency phobia, but compared to Ouyang, he is on a completely different level.

Lu Wei couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure you can carry all this equipment?"

“No problem!” Ouyang patted the bulging magazine pouch and jumped twice with ease.

Lu Wei's eyes twitched; this stamina was insane!

He wanted to build a machine gun, but he knew his physical strength very well; a rifle and eight magazines would be enough.

Pushing the limits? Forget it.

With everything ready, the two quickly went downstairs. On the way, Lu Wei tried to make a call upstairs, but before he could speak, Xu Yi berated him: "Wormtooth, what are you doing? Why did you leave?"

He couldn't get in touch with either of them and was getting increasingly anxious.

Lu Wei said calmly, "Old Xu, I need... no, we need intelligence support!"

He glanced at Ouyang and was about to speak when Ouyang took the initiative to explain the cause and effect, taking the responsibility upon himself.

Xu Yi was completely exasperated: "Wormtooth, what's wrong with you? Xiao Ou is impulsive, and you not only didn't stop him, but you also joined in the commotion?"

He was also helpless. Ouyang was not a military personnel, so he couldn't be too critical. Even a few simple words had to be carefully considered.

So he could only vent his anger on Lu Wei.

In that instant, Lu Wei felt a profound sense of powerlessness: "I don't want to either, but I can't beat him. Either he knocks me out and leaves me at the office, or I have to go with him. What can I do? I'm helpless too!"

Lu Wei seemed to have found an outlet for his anger, and he complained indignantly, explaining and venting his grievances at the same time.

Xu Yi quickly stopped him: "Wait a minute, what the hell did you say?"

Lu Wei sighed deeply, emphasizing his words, "I said I'm no match for him!"

"No, are you kidding me?" Xu Yi didn't believe a word of it.

He had read Ou Yang's file. Although it wasn't detailed enough, his general background was fairly complete. He knew that this kid had never been exposed to martial arts or fighting since he was a child.

Lu Wei is definitely not a martial arts master, so how could he not be able to deal with an ordinary young man?
Could it be that Ouyang had some kind of adventure in the epidemic area and learned some superb fighting skills?
As they spoke, the two had already reached the bottom of the building, and were shocked to find that three of the four armored vehicles had been destroyed by drones, and the door of the last vehicle was wide open, with not a single ghost in sight.

"Not bad, they saved one for us," Ou Yang said with a sigh.

Lu Wei took the lead in the driver's seat without hesitation: "Old Xu, the arrow is on the bowstring and we have no choice but to release it. Without intelligence support, the two of us will have no choice but to go for it."

Xu Yi was furious: "Worm tooth, do you know what you're saying?"

Lu Wei was also helpless: "If I hadn't gone back to the office, would I have let Ou Yang go by himself?"

Xu Yi was speechless for a moment: "You'll be back!"

Ouyang suddenly interjected, "Sending a few drones to take out Smith would also work."

"Don't even think about it, that's impossible!"

Xu Yi felt no pressure in taking down Smith, but he absolutely could not send drones, much less act recklessly in public.

At the very least, you can't use your public identity to do it; you have to disguise your identity so that the other party can guess who did it, but you absolutely cannot leave any evidence.

Not even the slightest bit!
So Xu Yi changed his approach: "Here's what we'll do, you guys go back to the office first, I'll keep an eye on the target and figure out a way to deal with him later!"

"This is a golden opportunity!" Ou Yang refused without hesitation. "Old Xu, I remember now. I encountered a similar situation back at Brown Bear University. If it weren't for someone's help, I would have fallen into the hands of the US military. I still don't know who is trying to capture me, but Smith's unit has been blocking Brown Bear Airport since the outbreak of the pandemic... It's been more than half a year, and they're still haunting me. I can't miss this opportunity!"

Xu Yi was stunned: "What do you mean? They wanted to capture you when you were with the brown bear?"

“Yes, and we almost caught him.” Ou Yang’s face was ashen.

He remembered the dark elevator shaft and the long time he spent hiding at the bottom of it.

Xu Yi was a little confused. This was a long-standing grudge, but he had never known who his opponent was before.

He was filled with remorse, hating himself for being so talkative. If he hadn't brought up Smith, Ouyang wouldn't have known so much, and he wouldn't have suddenly gone mad.

But it was too late to say anything now. Knowing that he couldn't persuade Ouyang, he could only compromise: "Okay, I'll figure out the intelligence, but I have a request."

"you say!"

"Don't be reckless, don't act rashly, prioritize your own safety."

“Okay!” Ouyang readily agreed.

His goal was revenge, not to hand himself over to the enemy.

After the call ended, Lu Wei sighed softly, "You've really got me killed!"

"It's alright," Ou Yang said. "I'll handle any consequences myself!"

Lu Wei started the armored vehicle: "Forget it, you're just an ordinary citizen, how can you carry it?"

Remembering what Xu Yi had revealed, Ou Yang felt confident.

As the armored vehicle started up, Ouyang immediately approached Lu Wei and said, "Teach me!"

He had no problem driving a car, and he could easily handle driving an armored vehicle as well. However, the armored vehicle had too many switches and buttons with unclear purposes; anyone who wasn't an expert wouldn't understand what they did.

Lu Wei suddenly felt like he was taking care of a child. He explained things while driving, and just as he turned a corner, a familiar voice came through his earpiece: "Wormtooth, this is Dongguai. What information do you need?"

Lu Wei gestured to Ou Yang, who replied without hesitation, "Is Smith still at City Hall?"

"I'm still here." Dongguai's voice was calm, showing no change despite the personnel change.

"Plan a route to City Hall for me. Also, find a good vantage point near City Hall for sniping. I also need Smith's photo!"

"Received... Route sent!" As soon as the words were spoken, the tactical glasses first projected the route map, then projected a half-body photo of Smith.

"It will take some time to reach the high ground, please be patient."

"Got it!" Ou Yang replied, then suddenly nudged Lu Wei, "Who's this? Why does he talk like a customer service representative?"

Lu Wei, without looking to the side, said: "You're asking me? Who should I ask?"

"This is Dongguai," a voice came through the radio.

Ou Yang was immediately embarrassed: "Ahem, well, I didn't mean anything by it..."

"I know!"

Ou Yang grinned and obediently shut his mouth.

The car fell silent, with only the roar of the engine remaining.

A moment later, the armored vehicle drove through an empty intersection, and Tongju's voice came again: "Fire has broken out ahead, please turn left immediately!"

While issuing the warning, the tactical goggles project a new trajectory.

Ou Yang glanced at the map: "Isn't this a roundabout route?"

"Walk an extra 2.2 kilometers."

Lu Wei had already started to turn around, but Ou Yang grabbed him and said, "Dongguai, is the fighting ahead intense?"

"The intensity is moderate."

"Do you have heavy weapons? Do they pose a threat to armored vehicles?"

"Nothing has been detected yet, and the threat to armored vehicles is minimal."

Who are the two sides exchanging fire?

“Local police officers and unidentified armed men.”

"That's good." Ouyang breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's charge!"

Lu Wei turned around in surprise: "Are you sure?"

“Confirmed!” Ouyang nodded emphatically. “Taking a detour will waste too much time. We must get there as soon as possible. If Smith gets away, it will be difficult to find him again.”

He had reason to suspect that Xu Yi had deliberately orchestrated this to buy time.

Lu Wei gritted his teeth: "Fine, I'll do as you say!"

The armored vehicle continued to advance, and Dongguai dutifully continued to provide information: "We are about to enter a firefight zone. Police officers are on the left, and unidentified armed personnel are on the right!"

The armored vehicle came into view of both sides, immediately alerting them.

Lu Wei showed no sign of stopping and charged straight into the battlefield.

At the same time, the turret rotated, and the rapid-fire cannon on the armored vehicle aimed at the right side, causing the militants there to instantly erupt into chaos.

Engaging in a standoff and firefight with police officers is one thing, but confronting an armored vehicle is a completely different matter.

Lu Wei didn't tolerate them and opened fire without saying a word. The barricades made of vehicles and old tires were immediately smashed to pieces by the shells, and the militants suffered heavy casualties.

The police officers who were confronting him cheered loudly.

The armored vehicle swept from one end of the street to the other, then drove away without a second thought.

The police officers quickly cleaned up the mess, and news of an armored vehicle coming to their aid was also sent to the city hall.

At this moment, Smith was still in the city hall, sitting blankly in a corner, his face ashen.

Not only did they lose an entire company of troops, but the capture operation also failed. As the commander, he had to take full responsibility for it.

At this point, suicide by gunshot would have been the best option, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't muster the courage to do it.

Take responsibility?

No, the consequences would be worse than death.

He didn't want to die, nor did he want to take responsibility, but no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't come up with a way to escape.

No, we can't wait any longer!

Smith slowly stood up and walked out calmly, as if nothing had happened.

He had made up his mind to put on makeup and leave as soon as he left the city hall, going as far away as possible!
What does status or position matter compared to life?
Just then, Billy strode up to Smith, holding a freshly printed photograph in his hand: "Do you recognize this car?"

Smith was startled, his face darkening as if water were about to drip from it: "What do you mean?"

His tone was still not very pleasant, but it no longer carried the same condescending air as before.

“Take a look, do you recognize it?” Billy pushed the photo forward a little more. “Just received news that a few minutes ago, this armored vehicle appeared near Dina Street, cleared out a group of armed thugs’ barricades, and is currently heading towards City Hall.”

Smith glanced at it, then jumped to his feet, his eyes wide as saucers: "It's our car, it's our car!"

Billy asked cautiously, "Are you sure?"

“I’m sure, absolutely sure!” He pointed to the numbers on the side of the car. “I recognize this number!”

"That's great." Billy breathed a sigh of relief and told the mayor the news.

Smith was excited and pacing back and forth: Could things have changed?
After thinking it over and over, he still felt uneasy, so he immediately called the armored vehicle: "226, this is Smith, 226, can you hear me? Please respond!"

Inside the armored vehicle, Ouyang and Luwei looked at each other in bewilderment. They were just plotting against Smith when this guy suddenly appeared.
"Are they talking about us?" Ouyang asked.

Lu Wei rolled his eyes: "Is that even a question? It's written on the outside of the car."

Should we answer it?

"I have to answer!"

Ouyang hesitated, "What should I say to him?"

"Just accept it first, or we'll be exposed!"

Ou Yang had no choice but to pick up the microphone: "226 received, please speak!"

"226, what's the situation over there? Did you catch the target?"

Ou Yang's eye twitched. What time is it? He's still thinking about this?
