Hong Kong Variety Show: Let you eat melons, eat melons on your sister-in-law

Chapter 390 "390" Over-preparation, Easy Difficulty

"Boss, are you sure you want to come with us?" Barney looked at Lin Yao with surprise.

Lin Yao said with a smile, "What, you look down on me?"

Barney and the others naturally couldn't say anything to their boss.

However, Lin Yao's subsequent actions truly startled them.

At the shooting range in Miami, Lin Yao casually grabbed the pistol in his hand and pulled the trigger directly at the target fifty meters in front of him.

"Boom boom boom!"

The sudden, continuous gunfire surprised Barney and the others.

Then Christmas took out his binoculars to examine the distant target where it had been hit, and exclaimed in surprise, "All ten rings!"

Lin Yao chuckled, picked up another assault rifle, and said to Christmas, "Moving target!"

Then the moving target on the training ground was immediately moved by the conveyor belt.

These things don't have a constant speed; they're specifically designed to test mercenaries' reaction speed.

Even Barney, who has the best marksmanship in the group, might not be able to hit all of them.

However, after Lin Yao picked up the assault rifle, he became even more accurate, hitting the moving target with almost every shot.

This marksmanship was enough to surprise Barney and the others.

Lin Yao then picked up an M2 precision rifle again.

Then he aimed at the target at about 800 meters and pulled the trigger.

"Ten rings, ten rings again!" Christmas's voice trembled slightly as he spoke.

Judging from Lin Yao's performance, it's not that the members of the suicide squad couldn't do it, but that Lin Yao is just too well-rounded and can replace almost all of them.

"Shit, boss, is this a human?" Barney almost popped his eyes out.

McDonald remarked with admiration, "The first time I saw the boss's skills, I had the same expression as you guys. And the boss is an expert in close combat! Don't let his appearance fool you; his punches and kicks are incredibly deadly!"

McDonald couldn't help but recall the scene on the Fugui Maru where he was brutally beaten by Lin Yao and Tian Yangsheng and his gang.

Although at that time McDonald was only surrounded by a group of bandits, he could not fully utilize his talents.

But a loss is a loss, and there's no point in making excuses.

Christmas shook his head: "I just feel that the boss is a monster. He can make so much money and has so many talents. Is he God's illegitimate son?"

"Alright, stop flattering me!" Lin Yao put down his gun, rubbed his shoulders, and said, "Just stretching my muscles and letting you see what I'm capable of."

"And Barney, don't worry, you're still the captain. When we get to the target location, I'll follow your orders!"

Issuing orders from multiple sources is a major taboo. Since Lin Yao chose Barney to be the team leader for this mission, he certainly wouldn't diminish his authority.

Barney breathed a sigh of relief, even though Lin Yao had displayed such talent.

But things are completely different on the battlefield, and it's not a good thing for a team to have multiple orders.

Fortunately, Lin Yao seemed to understand this, so Barney couldn't refuse: "Of course, no problem!"

Lin Yao said with a smile, "By the way, I'm going there to test our company's new product!"

"That drone?" Christmas asked, somewhat curiously.

“That’s right, the newly upgraded drone!” Lin Yao asked McDonald to bring out another box.

Barney was somewhat surprised: "It seems a bit different from what you exhibited before!"

"Of course, this is the latest iteration of the product from the lab. It has stronger battery life, less noise, and faster speed!" Lin Yao said with a smile.

Christmas rubbed his hands together and said to Lin Yao, "Boss, can I give it a try?"

Lin Yao shrugged and said, "Of course, it's equipment that was originally assigned to you!"

Christmas couldn't wait to pick up the drone remote and start operating it.

Unlike the old version exhibited by Lin Yao, although the engine noise is still quite loud, it has been reduced by 30 to 40 decibels compared to before, and the driving time is also much longer, more than doubled from about ten minutes before.

Although it's still a big, clumsy creature, if it flies high enough, it's indeed difficult for people to notice it.

After playing with it for a while, the group exclaimed, "Boss, this thing of yours has rendered the scouts useless!"

Lin Yao said with a smile, "It's just that we have another pair of eyes that can observe the overall situation."

"And then there are your bulletproof vests! Come and take a look!"

Lin Yao had McDonald bring over several gel mannequins, and then put a combat suit on the mannequins.

Then Lin Yao drew his assault rifle and opened fire on the dummy.

All the bullets hit the dummies, but to everyone's surprise, the dummies' appearances were not damaged at all, and the impact was even reduced, causing only minor injuries to the family members.

"New materials, and combat suits made with Kevlar!" Lin Yao said with a smile, "I guarantee you won't get killed by stray bullets!"

"Wow!" The roadblock rushed over impatiently.

For an assault soldier, the thing to fear most when on a mission is stray bullets.

Now, with perfect protective suits, they hardly need to worry about being taken out by a stray bullet. The suicide squad members are finally experiencing the benefits of cooperating with a big company.

Each piece of equipment that Lin Yao took out was priceless.

They get priority access to equipment that other companies would be green with envy. Is there anything better than that?
"We're armed to the teeth!" Barney exclaimed.

No wonder Lin Yao wasn't worried about this mission at all.

With so many resources poured into this, assassinating a warlord would be a piece of cake.

But what shocked them wasn't just that, but also the intelligence stuff.

Lin Yao started his career in intelligence, so he naturally knows how important intelligence is.

Although Lin Yao's intelligence department wasn't based in the United States, Richard's side had just as much intelligence.

Especially regarding the island of Vilanna.

Lin Yao also understood why Qiao Qi had sent them to carry out this mission.

In short, a traitor has appeared in the CIA, colluding with the local warlord Garza to exploit the local people, which has also harmed the CIA's interests.

Since the other party was a former CIA employee, sending troops directly to kill him would easily leave evidence against him.

But according to George, it would damage the CIA's reputation.

Lin Yao almost burst out laughing on the spot. The CIA has such a thing as reputation?
Ultimately, it's all about dirty work within the CIA.

As for why Richard obtained this classified information, it was entirely due to the deep cooperation between MI5 and the CIA.

However, this cooperation will likely be broken soon as the United States grows stronger.

Many intelligence reports are no longer being shared with MI5.

Getting information about Vilanna Island is already quite good.

When Barney and the others saw the extremely detailed intelligence in Lin Yao's hand, they were shocked and said, "Boss, you're not going to tell me you have people in the CIA too, are you?"

"Hmm... I don't think so!" Lin Yao said after thinking for a moment.

After all, MI5 and the CIA only share intelligence, and Richard had to use a lot of resources to obtain this CIA scandal.

"Uh, you mean there really is some connection?" Christmas said with a look of surprise.

"Don't worry about the details, Barney, you come up with the action plan, and we'll just take action when the time comes!" Lin Yao handed the intelligence and map to Barney.

Barney found these things somewhat absurd.

He had never fought such a costly battle before, and for a moment he didn't know how to formulate a plan.

With everything from equipment to intelligence sorted out, all he needed to do was reach the designated location, eliminate some guards, kill Garza, return to his plane before the enemy forces could react, and then leave Vilana Island.

Barney was simply convinced that even a dog could do what he did.

"Hmm, isn't this plan pretty good? Simple and straightforward!" Lin Yao glanced at Barney's plan and then said directly, "Get everything ready, and then let's get started!"

"Give me your aircraft identification number, and I'll try to get you some legal documents to enter Vilanna Island!"

Barney and the others were stunned. They obediently handed over the aircraft's identification code to Lin Yao and then went to make preparations.

The following day, the group set sail for Vilana Island aboard Barney's sea glider.

This time, Lin Yao and Xiao Fu were added as well.

Yin Yang asked Xiao Fu curiously, "What military unit are you from? You seem quite extraordinary!"

"You came from a motorized mechanized unit, what about you?" Since it didn't involve classified identification numbers, Xiao Fu wasn't bothered by it.

Yin Yang's lips twitched: "You mean that unit that claims to use people as motorcycles?"

"It's alright!" Xiao Fu said, scratching his head.

Yin Yang shook his head and said, "I'm just a regular Marine. My family was poor, so I became a mercenary!"

"So, isn't the life of a mercenary exciting?" Xiao Fu asked curiously.

After all, he used to be an assassin, so he asked Yin Yang out of curiosity.

Yin Yang shook his head and said, "Mercenaries don't usually have this much excitement in their work. When we're with Barney and the others, it's mostly security work, and rescue work is very rare!"

"By the way, the boss is Chinese, right? Specifically, where is he from?"

"From Hong Kong, I guess. He used to be a petty hoodlum!" Xiao Fu said with a smile.

"Huh?" Yin Yang was completely dumbfounded: "Young and Dangerous?"

“That’s right! It’s the Young and Dangerous gang!” Xiao Fu said with a smile.

This made Yin Yang even more curious about Lin Yao's rise to power.

At this point, the other members of the suicide squad also came over to listen, and kept letting out strange "Wow!" sounds.

Lin Yao was currently wearing headphones, learning how to fly a plane from Barney and Christmas, and didn't have time to listen to Xiao Fu bragging about his rise to wealth.
