# Chapter 242: The Impossible Mission
So the guy was like... Eh!
So the frosted-faced black guy got his new codename!
Little Black!
The system even named him!
At this moment, inside the safe house!
A short young man also smiled and greeted Jiangnan!
One of his arms was still in a sling!
"South God! Hello! I'm Li Mietu, Deputy Leader Yang's assistant!"
And in the corner stood a girl holding an anti-material sniper rifle!
Tall figure, standard oval face, delicate features, exuding a cold aura that kept people at a distance!
There were a few scabbed scratches on her pretty face...
Her eyes lit up when she saw Jiangnan and the others come in, but then she looked disappointed.
"Xiao Shi, say hello to everyone!"
But the girl just hugged her gun tightly and said nothing!
Wang Zhengyang smiled awkwardly: "Her name is Tang Shi. She's just like that, doesn't talk much!"
Jiangnan grinned: "No problem!"
Bai Qianxun asked in surprise: "Xiao Wei? Went out on a mission?"
As soon as she said that, Tang Shi's pretty face suddenly turned pale, her eyes red!
Li Mietu also lowered his head and didn't speak, gritting his steel teeth!
Wang Zhengyang took a deep breath: "Two days ago, when she went out, her identity was exposed. Safe House 1 was attacked!"
"Xiao Wei couldn't make it out with us!"
Everyone fell silent!
Tang Shi said with red eyes: "If that woman hadn't insisted on going out to buy cosmetics, how would we have been exposed? How could Xiao Wei have..."
As she spoke, tears flowed uncontrollably. She slid down weakly against the wall and sat on the floor.
Li Mietu punched the wall, gritting his teeth!
Jiangnan frowned deeply: "What exactly happened?"
Wang Zhengyang let out a long sigh!
Only then did Jiangnan understand!
It turned out that the two researchers they brought were a man and a woman.
A few days ago, the woman sneaked out to buy cosmetics and was followed!
The forces within the Budaya city area were complex, and Oriental faces were rare to begin with!
Usually, Big Black and Little Black went out to handle business.
As a result, Safe House 1 was compromised, and Xiao Wei...
Just then!
The door to the inner room opened!
A woman wearing a white lab coat, with a bun hairstyle and glasses, walked out from inside.
Phoenix eyes, high nose bridge, thin lips!
Even in the Budaya war zone, this woman still dressed very elegantly!
"The reinforcements are here? Here to evacuate us?"
"Tsk~ Only three people? Is this the attitude from above?"
Fang Liu looked impatient, acting arrogantly!
Jiangnan said coldly: "There's no evacuation. The mission continues. No one goes back until Dracula Biotechnology Company is destroyed!"
Fang Liu sneered: "Are you kidding? How many people have died already?"
"We can't even cross the city area, there's the war zone blockade, and the Sahara Desert!"
"It's been so many days, we haven't even found the company's location. How can we complete the mission?"
"By the way, who are you?"
Jiangnan said flatly: "Ghost Slaying Operation Combat Commander. Jiangnan!"
Fang Liu was stunned!
Then she sneered: "Hah! You? Your fur hasn't even grown in yet, right? Does the higher-ups really have no one left?"
"Just throwing whatever here? Hurry up and evacuate us!"
"I don't want to die in this godforsaken place!"
Everyone in the room had ugly expressions!
Suddenly!
Jiangnan instantly appeared in front of Fang Liu, his eyes bloodshot like crimson!
With his large hand gripping her neck, he pinned her against the wall!
"Slap!"
The crisp sound of a slap stunned everyone!
Tang Shi even covered her mouth in surprise!
Fang Liu's face turned red, her eyes filled with hysterical madness!
"Ah! How dare you—"
Before she could finish, a sharp dagger thrust straight into her mouth!
Pressing firmly against her upper palate! The tip of her tongue could clearly feel the coldness of the blade!
Her entire face turned ashen in an instant, her expression terrified!
Jiangnan's gaze made her feel cold from head to toe!
It was the look of a hungry wolf staring at its prey!
[From Fang Liu, Resentment Value +1000!]
"I can make you die here in the next second!"
"Don't you feel any guilt?"
"Now! Apologize to the fallen comrades!"
Fang Liu was choked until her face turned red, her eyes full of terror. The right side of her face visibly swelled!
"S-Sorry..."
The dagger was still stuck in her mouth; she didn't dare move her tongue!
[From Fang Liu, Resentment Value +1000!]
"Do your job as a researcher properly!"
"Whatever I tell you to do, you do it!"
"Understood?"
Fang Liu nodded repeatedly, tears streaming down!
Jiangnan turned his head and scolded: "Wang Zhengyang! How are you leading the team?"
"Why is there insubordination in the squad?"
Wang Zhengyang stared blankly at Jiangnan. He never expected Jiangnan to act so directly, and so ruthlessly!
"But she's a researcher... I—"
Jiangnan glared: "So what if she's a researcher? Where is this? The battlefield!"
"Get your priorities straight! You're the captain! The lives of everyone here rest on your shoulders!"
"You're a veteran! How can you still make such a rookie mistake?"
Wang Zhengyang clenched his fists tightly, full of self-blame: "I'm sorry!"
Jiangnan said coldly: "Now, as punishment, all of you rest tonight! Mountain Cat and Little Bai stand guard! Execute orders!"
Wang Zhengyang: ???
What the hell?
I've never heard of this kind of punishment!
Li Mietu was also dumbfounded!
Tang Shi laughed secretly: "Pfft..."
This new commander was too... she didn't even know how to describe him!
Mountain Cat and Little Bai straightened up: "Yes, Captain Jiang!"
Only then did Jiangnan release Fang Liu!
Her body slumped weakly to the floor, coughing violently!
Her gaze toward Jiangnan was full of resentment!
[From Fang Liu, Resentment Value +1000!]
Just then, another slightly chubby man with glasses rushed out of the lab!
His hair was like wool curls, very fluffy. He helped Fang Liu up and apologized with a smile: "Sorry for the trouble, everyone!"
"That's just her personality. Don't mind it!"
Jiangnan nodded. This man was called Wei Hua, also a researcher sent here.
After helping Fang Liu back to the lab, the atmosphere in the room relaxed considerably!
Everyone went about their own tasks methodically!
Wang Zhengyang looked at Jiangnan with admiration in his eyes!
Less than ten minutes after arriving, he had already established his absolute leadership!
He didn't drag things out at all! Clear-headed! Extremely decisive!
Even though he was only Silver, not a single Gold-rank in the room disobeyed him!
He was a born commander!
In this regard, even Wang Zhengyang felt inferior!
At the same time, he felt much more relieved, as if a heavy burden had been lifted!
Now that burden was on Jiangnan's shoulders!
At night!
Wang Zhengyang and the others slept very soundly!
Mountain Cat stood guard, while Bai Qianxun was still tracking Luo Fei Kapeng's location.
Jiangnan was reviewing the materials that Wang Zhengyang had handed over!
His brows were tightly furrowed!
The biggest difficulty now was determining the exact location of Dracula Biotechnology Company!
Once determined,
They would also need to cross the Budaya city area!
Then through the war zone blockade!
Before entering the Sahara Desert zone!
This mission was truly arduous!
Just then!
Tang Shi, who was sleeping nearby, secretly glanced at Jiangnan.
Her little hand reached out from under the covers and handed Jiangnan a Snickers bar!
Her big eyes fixed on Jiangnan's profile.
She said softly: "Want some?"
Jiangnan shook his head and smiled: "Not hungry. Get some rest!"
Tang Shi stuffed the Snickers bar back under the covers, biting her lower lip!
"I'm sorry about earlier today... That was rude of me!"
"And... thank you!"
That "sorry" from Fang Li meant the world to Tang Shi!
Jiangnan smiled: "It was the right thing to do..."
Another silence.
Tang Shi's gaze dimmed: "So many people have died... Can the mission really be completed?"
Having been here so long, she naturally knew how difficult the mission was—almost impossible!
Jiangnan closed the materials and took a deep breath: "I can't guarantee that the mission will be completed."
"But I can guarantee that I'll bring everyone home safely!"
Tang Shi bit her lower lip until it turned blue, staring blankly at Jiangnan, her eyes moist!
Then she buried herself in the blanket, sobbing softly.
Jiangnan rubbed his nose, gently patting her through the blanket!
Bai Qianxun: "South God! Luo Fei and the others have also arrived at Budaya!"
Jiangnan's gaze sharpened!
