Excessive ferocity due to caution

Chapter 737 [Three Primary Colors - Causality] Battle

Zhao Yi hung up the phone.

Chutebi looked at his phone, his expression somewhat grim.

After all, he had a very deep sense from the surveillance footage how dangerous the scene was. Who would run to a place where there was gunfire and explosions for no reason?

But can he not go?

Obviously not.

Chutebi knew that he had no reason, nor the right, to refuse Zhao Yi.

If he abandons this last remaining ally, then with his own abilities, it would be as easy as child's play for Capital Man to deal with him and the police department.

Just like before.

The police force was being continuously reduced. If Zhao Yi hadn't reminded him, he would still be in the dark and wouldn't even know how his opponents were beating him!

This is a formidable ally.

From any perspective, he must cherish it.

From the moment he decided to confront Capital Hero, he had no other choice.

After putting on his clothes, Chutby made the remaining arrangements and immediately went out.

He didn't even drive an armored vehicle.

Armored vehicles are very large and are easy targets for tank attacks.

In the face of real heavy firepower, even the armored vehicles modified by the police station are not much different from paper.

Therefore, driving an armored vehicle there would actually be unsafe.

Since it wasn't far, Chutby simply rode a small electric scooter to the scene.

He could hear the sounds of artillery fire and rifle fire from a great distance.

Fearing that stray bullets might graz him, Chu Tebi stayed close to the buildings and high walls as he approached the building where Zhao Yi was.

Take the elevator to the seventh floor.

From a room filled with miscellaneous goods, one could perfectly watch the scene of Godfall Manor being bombarded.

Zhao Yi, wearing a brown trench coat, stood by the window, pointed to the distant, war-torn Godfall Manor, and laughed:

Do you know him?

Chutby peered intently through the window.

"How could I not recognize you..."

"That's the residence of Buttman, the chairman of a famous hunting company in this city."

"What's wrong?"

Zhao Yi held a cigarette between his fingers, the ash drifting into the dark, cramped corner.

"What's wrong?"

"The military has brought tanks over; there must be something incredible inside."

"Moreover, something that could alarm the military so much, whether for official or private purposes, must be extremely dangerous!"

"For example, a terrifying weapon similar to Godfall."

"Or some biological product, which could have an immeasurable impact on the entire city."

Listening to Zhao Yi's guess, Qu Tebi's mind, which had been like a lump of mush, gradually cleared up.

indeed.

In V City, only the military has the authority to produce tanks.

If they hadn't discovered some incredible secret, why would the military have driven tanks into the city?

Could it be... that Whiteman is really secretly researching something?

Chutby's expression changed repeatedly.

Zhao Yi slowly took a drag of his cigarette:

"Do you know something?"

In the pitch-black room, the two didn't even turn on the lights so as not to attract attention.

The starlight and the distant flashes of gunfire shone on my face, faint like will-o'-the-wisps.

"There have always been rumors that Whiteman is researching something..."

"Because Orion's accounts and taxes have never quite matched up."

"This isn't difficult to check. As long as a region has a well-developed tax system, any problems can be easily detected with a simple check..."

At this point, Qutbi looked at Zhao Yiming with a meaningful gaze. Even though the two were not highly compatible partners, Qutbi still understood the meaning behind Zhao Yi's look.

Because... it's just too obvious.

"You mean... Whiteman is a capitalist?"

Faced with Chutebi's question, Zhao Yi remained noncommittal and replied:

"You can make this assumption."

"But it doesn't matter who it is."

"I said... Capitalist Hero is just a representative."

"He is a personification of social class."

"One person cannot play the sheepfold game."

"More important than whether Whiteman is a capitalist tonight is something else..."

Chutby asked:

"What is it?"

Zhao Yi:

"What exactly is hidden in Whiteman's manor?"

"Do we have a chance to get it tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Chutebi laughed and said:

"Old Zhao, that's just wishful thinking on your part."

"The military has already made its move, and judging from the tank model, it's most likely General Sata... Do you know what General Sata's nickname is?"

Zhao lit a cigarette ash:

"What is it?"

Chutebi bared his teeth and brandished his claws:

"Ghost Dancer!"

"His Hellfire Legion is the most terrifying fighting force in V City, bar none!"

"With General Sata here tonight, do you still think you can snatch something from him?"

Zhao Yi smiled and said:

"It doesn't matter."

"When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits."

"We're letting you out here so we can have an opportunity. If we do, we'll make our move; if not, we'll run away."

Chutebi patted Zhao Yi on the shoulder:

"Don't worry...you won't have a chance!"

"You have no idea how terrifying Admiral Sata and the Hellfire Legion truly are!"

"That's why I have such a headache tonight... Even if the police or the military came, they might not be able to handle Satar's Hellfire Legion!"

Zhao Yi calmly finished the last bit of his cigarette, flicked the butt out the window, and watched the ember go out as it fell.

"I really don't know just how terrifying Sata is..."

"Just like you don't know just how terrifying Capitalist Hero really is."

"I invited you out tonight to witness this grand event. Besides waiting for the opportunity, I also want you to gain a deep understanding of the true strength of Capital Hero, so that you can abandon your old-fashioned ideas."

Chutebi was stunned.

The two stood in the room in silence for a while, when suddenly a black shadow appeared speeding across the street in the distance!

Its speed was extraordinary, speeding through the narrow streets as if they were empty!

Upon witnessing this scene, Chutby's spirits were lifted!

"Capital Man is here!"

Zhao Yi unscrewed his thermos, took a sip of hot tea, and smiled at Chu Tebi:

"Let's go, Chief."

"Let's pick a good spot and witness this epic showdown in the capital."

Looking at the ruins of Godfall Manor, Chutby hesitated and said:

"Isn't it... too dangerous?"

Zhao Yi has already left the room.

"Without getting close to the blade, it's hard to appreciate the poignant beauty of death."
