On the other side, at the warehouse entrance, Qi Bei's right eyelid twitched even faster.
Ten minutes had passed since Zhan Taiyi went in, and they were carefully checking the goods.
Suddenly, a large hand covered the mouth and nose of one of the sentries he was watching, and he vanished without a trace in the next second.
Oh no...they're here after all! Qi Bei realized something was terribly wrong and quickly drew his pistol from his waist, aiming it at the doorway.
Hold your breath and send someone to inform the warehouse.
Immediately afterward, two figures appeared in his field of vision. There was only one possibility for them to have gotten here through the gatekeeper. Qi Bei aimed at the thighs of the newcomers and fired two shots.
The high-speed bullet stopped less than five meters from Su Wanxi, then fell to the ground in a strange parabolic arc.
Su Wanxi...why is she here too?!
Qi Bei's thought had just surfaced when Su Wanxi noticed him.
"Sizzle~" His bright eyes flashed, and the skin on his knee suddenly burst open, splattering bloodstains on his black trousers.
Section 56, Chapter Fifty-Five Variations
"Huff... Huff... Hiss!" Qi Bei's breathing suddenly became rapid, and he struggled to roll to the door frame beside him.
Su Wanxi, the eldest daughter of the Su family, Fan Ruosong's niece, and also the leader of the Special Operations Team of the Hermit Branch of Lanjiang City... Information about the other party appeared in Qi Bei's mind in sections.
Six months ago, Su Wanxi was already a B-level Awakener, and now she will only be stronger than before.
Even she came, what about Chen Guotong's side...?
Qi Bei's heart began to race. If what he thought was true, all the members involved in this transaction were likely to be in grave danger.
Damn it, Zhan Taiyi is such an idiot.
Suddenly, a pale golden veil appeared before his eyes. Qi Bei tore open his coat and carefully bandaged his wound, muttering curses under his breath.
The woman's eyes were serene and cold, but to Qi Bei they were nothing short of demonic.
His whole body felt as if it had been crushed by a heavy object, and his legs, which had been subjected to the most severe force, were almost losing all feeling.
His knee was still bleeding, and his right leg bone seemed to be slightly dislocated. In just one encounter, Qi Bei's mobility was reduced by more than half.
"Tell Zhan Taiyi that someone is surrounding us, and Su Wanxi is here too. Tell him to hurry up." Qi Bei dragged his injured body and squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth.
His subordinates were taken aback by the sudden turn of events; he simply stood there, stunned.
"Stop fucking standing there, get inside now."
"Ah...oh!" The thug in the leather jacket with a middle parting stumbled into the warehouse.
Watching the other party flee in a disheveled state, Qi Bei felt a trickle of blood seep from the corner of his mouth. Su Wanxi's gravity-induced fall not only damaged her bones but also directly affected her internal organs.
All his organs, including his heart, were violently dragged downwards. If it weren't for the strong physique of the awakened one, that one look would have been enough to make Qi Bei fall into a coma.
Pressing against the metal door frame, Qi Bei felt a chill run down his neck.
His ability activated, and golden light particles surged from his body...
Less than a hundred meters from the warehouse, Gu Cheng obediently followed behind Su Wanxi, her gun pointed firmly at the spot where the man had fallen.
"Wait." Su Wanxi suddenly stopped, and Gu Cheng accidentally bumped into her soft back, letting out a soft cry.
"What's wrong?" Gu Cheng asked softly, rubbing her chest.
Su Wanxi did not answer; she simply stretched out her smooth arm and shielded Gu Cheng behind her.
The blood that Qi Bei had previously spilled quickly heated up, and the black liquid on the ground visibly emitted white steam.
"what is that?"
"Back off!" Su Wanxi turned around and pulled Gu Cheng back to lie down.
"Bang!" A loud explosion rang in my ears, and the rising flames fell into the air as a signal. Gunshots rang out one after another from the warehouse door.
When the smoke cleared, a hole was blasted into the solid concrete ground, and several bright yellow bullets were scattered around Su Wanxi.
Blood burning—Qi Bei's awakened ability allows him to manipulate blood to rapidly heat up, triggering an explosion to a certain extent. The blood that needs to be ignited doesn't necessarily have to be Qi Bei's own, but he uses his own blood more easily and skillfully.
That's a really troublesome ability...
The same thought flashed through Qi Bei and Su Wanxi's minds at the same time.
Su Wanxi was worried that the remaining blood on the ground meant that if they continued forward, such an explosion might occur again.
Qi Bei's worries were also related to this; their blood would eventually run out, and the gravity field created by Su Wanxi turned their most threatening weapon into a fire poker.
Then no one will be able to stop them from moving forward...
More importantly, the girl beside Su Wanxi had not yet demonstrated her abilities, so he dared not easily send someone to spill his blood.
Wait... A sudden idea flashed through Qi Bei's mind. He ejected the magazine from his pistol and then slowly started pulling the trigger.
"Hiss~" The bright yellow bullets approached the wounds, and Qi Bei smeared blood on their heads.
Reload and insert into the magazine.
"Bang!" Half of a gun barrel was exposed next to the door frame, and it fired in the approximate direction.
The bullet landed about five meters away from Su Wanxi again, but this time, it was not just a hollow-point bullet, but a miniature bomb carrying blood.
"Take this and smear it on the bullets." Qi Bei pulled out the last blood pack from his waist and threw it to the men who were organizing the shooting.
"Hmm." The other person tore open the blood pack and quickly applied the ammunition. Seeing how skillful they were, Qi Bei couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"Are you one of Zhan Taiyi's subordinates?"
"Ah."
"What's the situation inside?"
"We've almost finished moving everything. Brother Zhan is about to leave through the back door."
Back door? Since Song Shiyan dared to send people here, he must have prepared various countermeasures. Even if he was careless, he would not have overlooked such an obvious place.
Zhan Tai must know this too... Qi Bei frowned but didn't say anything more.
Just then, the lights inside the warehouse suddenly went out, and the workers who were busy moving the weapons stopped what they were doing.
"what happened?"
"It seems like the power is out..." Hearing the discussions below in complete darkness, Zhan Tai also stubbed out his cigarette.
He carried an assault rifle and slowly walked towards the door.
Outside the warehouse, Qi Bei also noticed something unusual inside.
"That guy." His pupils dilated slightly, his eyes reflecting the girl Su Wanxi was protecting behind him...
The Colt Python's muzzle emitted a faint heat, and the Magnum bullets, crackling with electricity, were deeply embedded in the warehouse's outer wall. Gu Cheng used his ability to spy for nearly ten minutes, finally locating the warehouse's main electrical circuit in a small corner.
Su Wanxi helped her adjust the bullet weight to the lowest level, and the trajectory of the electric bullet was almost a horizontal line.
"Tell Zhan Taiyi that if we don't leave now, it will be too late." Qi Bei's expression was somewhat distorted, and his previously injured knee was already numb.
Su Wanxi increased the range of the gravity field to ten meters, so that even explosive bullets would not be effective within that range.
The blood on the ground was dwindling, and he even saw several armed men flanking him from the side.
Upon activating their abilities again, the special forces soldiers felt their blood surging and their entire bodies turning red.
"Don't come any closer," Su Wanxi whispered. Just then, one of the special forces soldiers' fingers exploded slightly, leaving his entire palm covered in blood.
Qi Bei's move was merely a warning to the other side that he could instantly destroy these special forces members.
Ordinary people who have not awakened their abilities are as insignificant as ants in front of those with superpowers.
"Are you alright?" Zhan Taiyi's voice came from behind.
"What do you think?" Qi Bei breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Zhan Taiyi.
"Delay it for at least another twenty minutes."
"Would it be useful to stall for twenty minutes?" Regardless of whether it would be useful or not, Su Wanxi had already endured the hail of bullets and reached a position less than fifty meters away.
"It works." Zhan Taiyi pulled the pin on a smoke grenade and threw it out hard. Before it could reach Su Wanxi, it was intercepted by a 9mm bullet.
"They will soon run out of energy to care about us."
In the city center, a weak crack quietly formed.

Section 57, Chapter Fifty-Six: Raising the Tone
The elevator doors opened, and Song Shiyan, dressed in a neat suit, walked into the building.
He turned right at the second intersection directly ahead and came to one of the cedar wood doors, where he gently tapped it with his finger.
"Please come in." A deep male voice came from inside. Song Shiyan pulled the handle, a faint smile on his lips.
When Chen Guotong saw the newcomer, a sense of unease crossed his heart.
"Why are you here at this time?" He stood up casually and asked Song Shiyan with a smile.
"Come in and have a seat, aren't you welcome?"
"Of course you're welcome. What kind of tea would you like? I have some excellent Pu'er tea here."
Song Shiyan didn't say anything more. He just pulled out a plastic chair and quietly looked at the other person.
“I remember when I first became the director of the Hermit Bureau, you had already been demoted.” As if catching up with an old friend, Song Shiyan stroked the ceramic cup on the table.
"What? Are you blaming me for not coming to support you?" Chen Guotong raised an eyebrow, his tone slightly annoyed.
"Hehe, of course not." Song Shiyan put down his cup, his eyes piercing.
