In a room on the base.

“Why is there such a huge mobilization just because of one person?” The elderly man who was rushing over was surprised to hear this because he thought that something serious had happened. He had scrambled out of the bed of a little temptress all because of one guy.

The alarm was sounded due to one man. If this news spread, the base would become a laughingstock.

“This is a serious matter. Do not underestimate this guy as he has killed seven people and injured six within a few seconds while being surrounded by four elite military squads. This is beyond what a human being is capable of—just take a look at the photos taken from the scene.” Another man showed them the photos on his computer.

The head of one of the most miserable victims was missing.

“This was done with bare hands. Plus, the killer was over ten meters away before moving in. He rushed at the squad members behind him and killed six of them before they could even react. Everyone died because of broken bones and internal injuries. It is as if they were hit by a truck.”

“This was done by one man?” The elderly man was surprised by the photos he saw on the computer. One photo showed an open space at a helipad where there was no cover at all. How was it possible to kill seven people and injure six in such a situation?

“He’s very powerful and much stronger than a heavyweight boxer. More important than that is his agility as he managed to do so many things in just a few seconds and ran away at an incredible speed.”

“According to the last shot taken by a surveillance camera, he covered 100 meters in two seconds.”

“Are you kidding me?” The elderly man was shocked.

“I also wish that this was a joke. Look at the video clip taken by that surveillance camera.” The guy opened a file named, “In five seconds.”

The elderly man watched the video intently and saw two soldiers looking in a certain direction. Five seconds later, a figure suddenly appeared on the scene, but before they could respond, he had disappeared.

The other man played the video in slow motion and slowed it down further before he was able to see the scene of a man running.

Because of the low resolution lens, the figure was blur and couldn’t be seen clearly.

The edlerly man frowned because he already knew where the problem lay.

“Who is this person?”

“He’s wanted by the higher-ups, and this should be related to those biomedical experiments in China. I’m guessing he’s a successful result.”

“His strength, explosive power, and speed are far superior to those of ordinary people. If this is how far the biomedical experiments in China have progressed, then it is indeed a serious matter.

The CIA was formerly responsible for him, but now that he’s under our jurisdiction, he needs transportation from here to get home. I have contacted our counterparts in Washington by phone, and we must catch him alive.”

After the communications equipment on the table lit up, he pressed a button to receive the call.

“Sir, there are new developments. Lieutenant Kent was killed behind Dormitory Building C. Something happened to the wall on the second floor, and the other party may have some weapons that we do not know about. The photos are on the way to you.”

…

At this point in time, Ren Baqian was eating raw beef in the kitchen of a restaurant.

He didn’t have much time as he had been seen by someone when he was outside. Although Ren Baqian had killed the observer, the corpse out there would quickly be discovered.

He forced a kilogram of raw beef into his stomach to make his belly more comfortable and found something to wrap another ten kilograms of raw beef before jumping out of the window.

30 meters in front of them, three armed soldiers on patrol suddenly saw a person jump out of the back window of a restaurant. They immediately stopped, raised their guns, and reported, “Seal Team 6, Group 3 has spotted the target. Coordinates are…”

Da, da, da!

Ren Baqian landed on the ground and immediately pounced on them like a cheetah. Due to his speed, they didn’t have time to say anything more and had to immediately open fire.

Ting, ting, ting!

A silver and gold stick suddenly appeared in his hand to shield him, and the hail of bullets hit the Golden Spear.

Ren Baqian twisted his body to dodge several of the bullets. As the spear was thrown out by him, it cut through one soldier like a silvery gold lightning bolt.

The other two were sweating profusely and unable to worry about their comrade. Ren Baqian’s speed was too fast. He changed his position like phantom and got closer to them.

“Damn it! He isn’t human!” One man was terrified when he saw Ren Baqian getting closer and closer.

Fancy someone using a stick to block bullets, let alone dodging them!

They must be seeing a ghost!

And where did that stick come from?

At this moment, a metal chain sprang out of Ren Baqian’s hand and explosively extended ten meters as it soared through the air and wrapped around the neck of one of the soldiers.

Crack!

The neck of that man was instantly snapped.

Ren Baqian jumped and landed behind the remaining soldier as the metal chain followed his movement and wound itself around the neck of this person.

After killing all three, Ren Baqian proceeded to ransack their bodies.

He was hoping to find some flash grenades, but they only had guns, ammunition, and army knives.

In the past, he would have taken the guns without a second thought.

With his current situation, taking such things would be a burden. Using them would expose his position, so he might as well use the Golden Spear and the Metal Chain as they were more convenient.

When Ren Baqian turned to pick up the Golden Spear, it trembled ceaselessly in his hands. It seemed like it was very angry with Ren Baqian for throwing it earlier.

However, Ren Baqian didn’t care.

When he reached a corner, he suddenly stopped after hearing footsteps. On the other side of the corner, six people could be heard running from about 11 or 12 meters away.

“One, two, three,” Ren Baqian counted. When they were about to reach the corner, he suddenly stepped out and stabbed the first man in front with the Golden Spear.

When the spear was pulled out, it sent out three cold stars from Ren Baqian’s hands as a hole appeared in the heads of each of the three closest men.

The last two terrified looking men were already taking aim at Ren Baqian.

Ren Baqian grabbed a dead body to block his front.

Bang, bang, bang!

Again, a silver snake came out of Ren Baqian’s hand and broke the neck of a man who was six meters away.

Ren Baqian held a corpse as he rushed toward the last man and raised his spear.

The gunfire stopped.

The other party was a young man over the age of 20. He looked like an East Asian and had a childish appearance.

The spear tip hovered near the young man’s neck. He broke out in a cold sweat and looked terrified.

Ren Baqian stuck his head out from behind the corpse, looked at him, and asked “Where is the Command Center?”

“DON’T KILL ME!” the young man screamed desperately in English.

When Ren Baqian applied a slight force, blood trickled from the neck of the young man.

“I thought you could speak Mandarin!” Ren Baqian muttered. As he swept the spear tip downward, drops of blood splattered on the ground.
