“You know what to say right?”

Wei Xiao Bei threatened. Afterward, he placed the two-way radio in front of the sniper with the code name Black Panther.

“No problem. I was just tired and misfired.”

With Wei Xiao Bei in front of him, the sniper did not dare act recklessly and obediently said that he had misfired.

“Misfired?”

The people who were about to come over were immediately stunned.

The person code-named Black Panther was someone with a good reputation in the mercenary group. After entering the organization, his performance was great. Thus everybody was puzzled as to how he could have misfired.

However, misfiring was something unexpected. Even the best gunners in any country’s special force would not dare say that they had never misfired before, yet continuous misfires were slightly strange.

Thus, the other party had still decided to come to check things out.

At this time, Wei Xiao Bei had already taken the sniper’s rifle, handgun, and other weapons, placing them inside his storage bag. Then he poked the sniper two times, causing the sniper’s body to tremble.

In the next instant, Wei Xiao Bei carried the sniper and jumped toward the next tree like a glider. Afterward, he kept moving on top of the trees like an orangutan and soon encountered people moving from below him.

Naturally, the organization members that had come forward to inspect things also heard him moving past in the treetops.

This was something that could not be helped.

Although Wei Xiao Bei’s agility was now at 40 points, it was not enough compared to his high strength, making his movements become heavy. Moreover, he was carrying a man that was at least eighty kilograms. This made things difficult for him.

If Wei Xiao Bei had learned Qinggong instead of Bajiquan, then his footsteps would be as light as snow.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

From the dark forest, six tongues of flames leaped out as bullets tore through the leaves and chased after Wei Xiao Bei like venomous snakes.

However, Wei Xiao Bei did not care about the bullets at all. In an instant, he had descended from the sky and instantly killed one person with his right hand!

The remaining five people were startled. They quickly turned around and returned fire, but Wei Xiao Bei was like a mountain tiger that had come down from the mountain. He raised his hand and waved it, but the person he hit was not sent flying back, instead, his fist had directly pierced through the opponent’s heart!

In less than twenty minutes, these organizations members that carried guns with them were killed one by one.

When the sound of guns stopped, the battle ended. Not even a single bullet was able to hit Wei Xiao Bei,

The sniper whose body had weakened a lot became dumbfounded as he saw the scene.

From his viewpoint, this had already exceeded the level of a normal person. Facing six mercenaries that were shooting at point blank, even the best soldier in the world could not dodge every bullet, let alone counterattack.

As for the man who had caught him, he appeared to be a person only slightly stronger than a normal person, but he had actually killed six mercenaries in one go!

My god!

Is he still human?

However, the next scene that he saw showed him what unimaginable terror was.

Wei Xiao Bei threw the sniper down on the ground, then he stored the bullets and guns from the people he had killed.

Although he could not bring these things out in the Dust World, as a man and a retired soldier, it was hard not to like these kinds of things.

Thus he would keep and store all the guns that he saw. Moreover, his storage bag was now ten cubic meters big. As long as the things he placed did not exceed ten cubic meters he could place them inside his storage bag.

Many things appeared to occupy a lot of space, but their true area was not that much. For example, a cardboard box might appear to occupy a lot of space, but if it was empty inside, the area it occupied in the storage bag did not include the empty space and only included the six sides of the cardboard.

The space that these guns and weapons occupied in the storage bag was less than half a cubic meter.

After storing everything, Wei Xiao Bei hesitated a bit before extending his left hand to the corpses.

Under the terrified eyes of the sniper, a crack opened on Wei Xiao Bei’s palm. Then, countless flesh strands came out from the crack and pierced the corpses, continuously sucking.

Fuck! It’s just as I said, this is simply not human anymore!

This guy must be a heteromorph! Or he might be an alien that has hidden among humans!

In less than thirty seconds, the Fledgling Life Altar had finished absorbing a single corpse.

And all six of them took less than three minutes.

However, the strange thing was that although the Fledgling Life Altar absorbed all the corpses, its templates still stayed at two.

One of them was the Dang Kang based small pig template. The second one was the dog shaped template that he had gained after absorbing the hound corpses back in the villa.

Wei Xiao Bei pushed back his disgust as he finished absorbing the corpses, but the template for a human-shaped creature did not appear.

Wei Xiao Bei quickly placed his puzzlement aside and placed his attention back on the sniper. The six people did not even have the chance to send back any information to the base as they were instantly killed by him. This had given him enough time to perform an interrogation.

“What is your name?”

“My name is Wei Xing Wu.”

…

Under the influence of extreme terror, Wei Xing Wu’s psychological defenses had shut down as he answered all of Wei Xiao Bei’s questions.

Soon, Wei Xiao Bei finally obtained some information about this secret organization.

This organization was indeed quite secretive. The only thing Wei Xing Wu knew about it was that it was called Ash Gray.

The majority of the organization’s lowest level members were mercenaries from around the world.

As for the base in this forest, there was only one high-level member, it was the man who could control the giant sea creature.

According to him, there were other bases like this in many different places, but with Wei Xing Wu’s position, he could not have known where they were.

Just like so, Wei Xiao Bei came to an understanding, and there were some things that he could confirm.

Even if the organization appeared extremely secretive, the number of people who could enter the Dust World were few while the majority were normal people.

Otherwise, they would never rush in attracting Leng Xin Xing.

Additionally, the base in this forest should be one of the organization’s sub-bases.

The number of people inside should only be about fifty people.

Ash Gray?

Wei Xiao Bei could not help but smile. There was no doubt that the founder of the organization held resentment toward the Dust World.

The control of the organization on normal people was very strict. As long as they were part of the organization, then they would need to have one of their teeth replaced with a fake one. If they were captured, they would need to break it and kill themselves.

As for the relatives of these mercenaries, they were under the monitor of the organization. Otherwise, these unyielding mercenaries would not yield to the organization’s control.

Naturally, the most important thing was how generous the organization was. One year’s salary was equivalent to three years earning of the mercenaries in harsh battlefields.

With their relatives as hostages and a high compensation at death, many mercenaries were willing to commit suicide once their missions failed. This way, their relatives could evade a disaster and gain a lot of money.

It must be known that other than those famous mercenary groups, most of the mercenary groups did not have high standards in recruiting. Many of these mercenaries only earned as much as white-collar workers. During wartime, they could only earn at most twice that amount.

When they die, the compensation was so low that if people knew about it, they would feel shocked.

This was the problem with being a mercenary.

Mercenaries are mainly discharged soldiers from different countries, masses that could not eat due to war, and even people discharged from security companies.

Looking at the entire industry, the number of mercenaries had already become saturated. The increased labor supply made it so that the salary of mercenaries became lower.

It is said that when some tribes in Africa become mercenaries, the amount they earn is a hundred USD in a month.

Hearing Wei Xing Wu’s explanation, Wei Xiao Bie became interested.

It must be said that the more he knew about the organization that he might have offended the better. He should also increase the protection of his family.

There was no doubt that compared to those security guards who only knew how to guard internally, these international mercenaries could be called true specialists in the field.

At the very least, there was no problem if Wei Xiao Bei asked his two disciples to kill people, but if he were to ask them to guard his family, they would no doubt have a few slip-ups.

“Then why didn’t you commit suicide?”

Wei Xiao Bei looked at Wei Xing Wu and asked.

Wei Xing Wu immediately blushed and embarrassedly said, “I am an orphan. I don’t have any relatives for them to use as hostages. So, I am not important to the organization at all.”

Wei Xing Wu’s meaning should be that he was unwilling to die. Moreover, the organization did not put any importance on him at all. All of the tasks given to him were trivial matters. Even his salary was worse than others.

Just like that, Wei Xing Wu did not have any plans to throw his life away for the organization.

In truth, if Wei Xing Wu’s salary had not been held back, he would have already changed jobs.

Changing jobs was a common thing among mercenaries.

As long as the contract was finished, they could run away.

Therefore with Wei Xing Wu’s temporary contract, how could he still be working for them?

Hearing Wei Xing Wu chatter away, Wei Xiao Bei was stunned. In truth, Wei Xiao Bei felt that being a mercenary was a secretive job. However, other than holding onto firearms, they were essentially the same as office workers.

They needed connections, needed ability, needed dedication, and there were many times that they would also need a reputation.
