Forbidden Zone of the Human Race

Chapter 264: Begin

Chapter 264: Begin

Targets locked. Awaiting further instructions.

We still cant confirm if theyre the enemy. All units, stay alert. As long as they do anything suspicious, shoot them and the disguised medic team will drag them out ASAP.

Yes, sir!

All of the enemies Xiang Ning had identified through his Combat Instinct were instantly targeted. Some of them with sharper senses noticed something was wrong and started leaving.... But their every move was watched. The moment they tried to leave, the only thing that awaited them was a few-days stay in Marsh Citys prison.

......

Five minutes later, Annot was just a few steps away from the main stage. The lights suddenly dimmed and she hurried on stage. She turned and looked at Xiang Ning with a small smile and said something, but he couldnt hear her. The crowd cried in surprise as the stadium darkened.

However, during those few short seconds, the enemies who noticed that something was wrong had already informed their teammates. The moment the stadium turned dark, they knew it was their chance and quickly turned to leave. But they had only just stood up when they were shot with sedative bullets strong enough to incapacitate a tier four martial artist. Without a sound, they all fell back into their seats as if they were under a spell.

The soldiers disguised as medics moved quickly.

When the lights turned on, the entire stadium was stunned for a second, then erupted into deafening screams and cheers. A projection of the show slowly appeared outside, much to the excitement of the people waiting there.

......

Even sitting in the front row seat, Xiang Xiaoyu hadnt been affected by Annots looks. She was looking in all directions in search of her brother, but unfortunately, he was in his Heavens Key armor with Disguise activated. Right now, he had on a look much different from the disguise hed worn at Fortress Three.

Xiang Xiaoyus out-of-the-ordinary behavior was noticed by the surveillance team.

Snipers, please stay alert. Theres a suspicious target in the front row VIP seats.

Yes, sir!

She never sensed their attention on her, but the surveillance team wasnt the only one who noticed her odd behavior. A middle-aged man next to her pushed his glasses up and looked at her with a friendly smile. Hey kid, whatre you looking for?

While she was disappointed because she couldnt find Xiang Ning, she still smiled politely at the man. Im looking for a friend, he says hes nearby.

The man smiled, nodded, and pushed his glasses up. Stay still, kid. Youve already attracted attention, and if you move anymore, you might be attacked.

Huh?

During the short conversation, the crowd had recovered, including Chen Zixin, who was sitting next to her, and another thin boy named Liang Yuanhao. When she heard the odd conversation between Xiang Xiaoyu and the man, Chen Zixin tugged on her arm and asked, Do you know that man? Did he say something to you?

Uh, I dont know him, but dont worry, I was just looking for someone just now. I mightve disturbed him. She shook her head and, after some thought, decided not to tell Chen Zixin what the man had said.

The corner of the mans lips curved up when he heard that and he pushed his glasses up as he took a small card out from his pocket. It was half as tall as a phone and three fingers wide. It looked exquisite and was made of some unknown light, yet durable material.

Youre very cute, kid. Id like to give you a gift, I hope youll accept it.

Chen Zixin frowned. Before theyd come to the stadium, her parents had told her not to easily trust anyone, and not to take anything from anyone.

It was easy to read a childs mind from their expression. The man smiled. Its fine, this is just a nice ornament. Im not from Marsh City and you remind me of my daughter. Its alright if you dont like it.

The man was still as friendly as ever, but Xiang Xiaoyu still shook her head and refused it. She felt like taking something from others was wrong, especially since it looked expensive. She wasnt going to take it.

The man smiled and kept the card. Sigh, I didnt manage to impress you. Alright, the concerts starting. Is this your first time?

Yes, its our first time.

Alright, you should enjoy it as best you can, then. The mans words were slightly strange.

......

Xiang Xiaoyu was still being watched.

Sir, weve investigated the girl sitting in the front row VIP seat. Shes a year one, lower secondary student from Marsh City and isnt the target were looking for. However, we also checked the man talking to her. Hes from Azura and is named Ronan. Hes a tier five martial artist, a higher threat.

Watch him. Alert JT about him. If anything happens, stall him and wait for reinforcements.

Yes, sir!

JT was the pseudonym Xiang Ning had given himself. Other than a few limited people, no one knew his true identity. All they knew was that he was a tier four martial artist and was about eighteen years old. The people who knew him were ordered to remain silent about his identity or face consequences.

Although they were frustrated, they followed orders because it would be dangerous to expose his identity. It was a critical mission.

JT, aka Xiang Ning, slowly slipped further into the crowd after hearing the order. His Disguise skill was at its most effective in crowded places like this.

When he walked out of the crowd, his armor was gone and he had turned into a sunny young man in his twenties. He wore an ushers uniform that showed he was in charge of maintaining order.

He looked around as if he was on patrol. No one would care about a staff member on patrol, so he quickly arrived at the front row. To be honest, he almost lost control of himself when he saw that the man identified as a threat was sitting next to his little sister, but forced himself to remain calm.

He breezily walked over, then stood at an evacuation walkway nearby, silently watching his sister like a guardian angel.

Of course, he also didnt forget his job.

Doge & Chacha's Thoughts
