Super Mechanic: God of Superpowers!!
Chapter 27 Regular Mercenaries Are Strong
Upon seeing Chu Shen's arrival, everyone glanced at him a few times before turning their attention away.
His demeanor was unremarkable, and he appeared to pose no threat at all.
Since acquiring the ability of [Disguise], Chu Shen naturally no longer needs to wear a so-called mask.
To be on the safe side, he altered his appearance to resemble the image of Feng Jun from his memory.
There's nothing we can do; this guy is just plain-looking.
Let alone placing it in a crowd, even among a dozen people, it would be completely inconspicuous.
That makes sense, as the Thirteenth Bureau is an intelligence agency, it naturally has strict requirements for its staff.
You can't be too handsome, and you can't be too ugly.
The best is to be ordinary.
Just then, Ophelia suddenly stood up and said:
"Now that everyone's here, let's go outside."
"As agreed, as long as you help me escort the goods to Amethyst Lake, I will transfer the full amount of payment to the Alliance's account, and you will receive it in a couple of days."
Ophelia's voice was light and exceptionally pleasant to hear.
"Amethyst Lake?!"
Upon hearing this location, relevant information involuntarily surfaced in Chu Shen's mind.
Amethyst Lake, named for its resemblance to amethyst, is located deep within the Dragon Ridge Mountains and is inhabited by many powerful wild beasts.
"Don't worry, Miss Ophelia, we will make sure you get to Amethyst Lake safely," the mercenaries said.
"Hmm." Ophelia nodded slightly, then said, "Let's go now."
It was clear that she seemed very anxious.
Chu Shen, who had been observing carefully, noticed this scene, and his eyes flickered slightly.
Not long after Chu Shen and the others left the hotel, two furtive figures suddenly emerged from the hotel.
One of the middle-aged men, who was bald, asked:
"Is the intelligence accurate?"
The other person was a young man, somewhat handsome, who said, "Dad, don't worry."
"I kidnapped a core member of the Reynolds family, and the intelligence is absolutely accurate."
"Very good. If we can obtain that item, our Zhang family can take another step forward in the Mercenary Alliance."
……
The forest was as dark as ink, with the branches of the ancient trees intertwining to form a dense, impenetrable net that shattered the sunlight into tiny, coin-sized spots of light.
The mercenary group, consisting of a dozen or so people, snaked its way through the layer of decaying leaves like a centipede.
The crisp sound of leather boot soles crushing dry branches was the only pulse in the deathly silence.
Don't be fooled by the mercenaries' arrogant and unruly demeanor; it's just a facade they're putting on.
Behind the scenes, these mercenaries were all incredibly cunning, or rather, extremely cautious.
He truly understands the truth of "playing dumb to fool the enemy".
Saving face is completely unimportant; getting the benefits is what really matters.
Although they were on the outskirts of the Dragonspine Mountains, the mercenaries remained vigilant, their hands gripping their weapons tightly.
If anything seems amiss, they will immediately open fire.
Perhaps because he didn't attract much attention, Chu Shen walked and eventually came to the end of the line.
His gaze swept around, and he quickly noticed Ophelia in the middle of the group.
Ophelia was clearly an ordinary person, and this was due to a lack of training.
After walking for only half an hour, a faint blush appeared on her fair skin, and her chest trembled continuously.
Seeing this, many mercenaries couldn't help but swallow hard, thinking to themselves, "That's really exciting!"
They considered approaching her to chat, but upon seeing the two female bodyguards beside Ophelia, they abandoned the idea.
Although these two bodyguards are women, they have an extraordinary presence and are very likely martial arts practitioners.
……
As time passed, the group gradually ventured deeper into the Dragon Ridge Mountains.
As they ventured deeper, the number of wild beasts increased dramatically, and their strength became exceptionally formidable.
The attacker was a small, dark green snake.
Although its body is only about the size of an adult's palm, its toxicity is exceptionally strong.
It coiled its body among the withered leaves, and taking advantage of a mercenary's momentary lapse in attention, it bit down hard on the latter's leg like lightning.
In just a few breaths, the bitten mercenary turned blue all over.
Even though his companions rushed to administer serum, it was to no avail.
The mercenary quickly stopped breathing.
"Such potent toxicity!"
Chu Shen was secretly startled when he saw this scene.
After its initial attack, the venomous snake did not strike again; instead, it flicked its tail and attempted to leave.
However, the other mercenaries were not about to let it go and all made their move.
Soon, the snake's head was smashed to pieces.
"Haha, the gallbladder of a black snake is a good thing."
A bald mercenary laughed loudly and swiftly removed a piece of snake gall bladder that glowed with blue light from the snake's body.
However, seeing the disapproving gazes around him, he quickly turned to Ophelia and said:
"Miss Ophelia, you can have this snake gall."
"No need, since you got it, you can keep it," Ophelia said casually.
What others consider precious, snake gallbladders are nothing special to her.
The Reynolds family may have declined, but it depends on who you compare them to.
"Then thank you very much, Miss Ophelia," the bald mercenary said gratefully, without a trace of surprise on his face.
It's obvious they knew this would happen.
Now that Ophelia had spoken, the other mercenaries naturally couldn't easily snatch it, and they were filled with resentment, muttering a few curses under their breath.
You should know that the gallbladder of a black snake is a valuable item.
Swallowing it not only enhances resistance to snake venom, but also makes your vision clearer.
Unfortunately, this thing cannot be preserved for a long time; it must be taken out and consumed immediately after the ink snake is killed.
At the same time, seeing that the mercenaries were starting to fight amongst themselves, a hint of disdain flashed in Ophelia's eyes.
They really are a bunch of mercenaries from the mud.
"Chirp—"
Just then, a large, turquoise eagle suddenly swooped down from the sky.
And the target was none other than Chu Shen!
The Azure Eagle is enormous, and when its wings are spread, it exudes a sense of overwhelming oppression.
The mercenaries' hearts skipped a beat when they saw this, and fear involuntarily surfaced on their faces.
Even though the target of the Green Eagles was Chu Shen, they still quickly hid behind a big tree.
Seeing the blue eagle swooping down on him, Chu Shen showed no panic whatsoever. Instead, he simply shouted, "Die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the large, turquoise eagle's eyes suddenly exploded.
Its massive body then crashed heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust and dead leaves.
Chu Shen killed the giant eagle with just a cold shout.
Everyone's expression changed immediately, and they gasped sharply.
A single word can kill a giant eagle!
It is truly terrifying.
"Who is this person? He's incredibly strong."
"I never expected him to be a superhuman."
"I could tell he was exceptionally strong long ago. As expected of a legitimate mercenary, he is much stronger than us nobodies mercenaries."
