The smell of gunpowder permeated the air as a tent flashed, and a large-caliber pistol spewed forth from its muzzle!
"Don't get hit!" Jia Yan remained incredibly calm at this moment!
Even before seeing the opponent, his body had already moved!
Although the metal exoskeleton combined with solid defense couldn't guarantee absolute protection against the power of the Desert Eagle, which was dubbed a hand cannon, it was still too dangerous overall!
This elderly foreigner seemed to be not as strong as the other young man. In the past, Jia Yan would have easily dodged his aim.
But now was different!
He was wearing a metal exoskeleton, which affected his speed in moments of acceleration. Although the impact wasn't significant, it was enough to make bullets that he could have easily dodged become suspenseful.
Bang!
With the inertia of his flight, Jia Yan darted towards the corner of the three buildings!
A round metal bullet, like a life-threatening projectile, shot towards Jia Yan at a speed too fast to discern its appearance!
"No need to hurry, I can dodge it!"
In that split-second, Jia Yan seemed to have a little time for thought, whether his mutated mind was working faster or it was just an illusion.
He twisted his abdomen.
And beneath the electric spark produced by the twisting motion, the round metal bullet swiftly passed by the side of his abdomen!
If it weren't for this subtle twisting motion, it could have directly grazed his abdomen!
In that instant action, Jia Yan himself didn't even know if it was subconscious or if he truly sensed something.
Time was too fast!
Even he, the person involved, didn't notice this slight movement to dodge the bullet!
Perhaps it was a sense of crisis, or maybe something else. Anyway, this twist prevented the bullet from hitting him directly!
However, the pressure generated by the bullet still caused a few sparks to burst from the exoskeleton around his abdomen.
It didn't actually hit him but was just the result of close-range air pressure. It shows how powerful this so-called 'hand cannon' really is!
After the deafening sound, Jia Yan's body had already darted into the corner of a building, out of sight of the two foreigners!
The young foreigner who had already raised his pistol frowned.
Just as he was about to aim, his opponent escaped!
"It seems the operator of this machine is skilled. Let's go after them and see." The elderly foreigner's eyes shimmered with a hint of unwillingness.
"We don't have time. The three nuisances from behind have caught up! Let's hurry inside!"
The young foreigner glanced at where the so-called 'mechanical' had disappeared, feeling a bit puzzled.
Was this really a machine? Although it sounded like flapping wings, there was no sound of a motor or any other power source!
There couldn't possibly be such a silent power mode nowadays.
And the reaction speed was too exaggerated.
This kind of technology involved various aspects of science and technology!
He speculated that even their country, touted as the world's top technological power, the Stars and Stripes, couldn't achieve it!
Was it possible for Huaxia to produce such a metal monster?
So he doubted whether this seemingly metallic machine had any true identity.
But now wasn't the time to think about that!
Three Huaxia soldiers equipped with high-tech gear appeared not far from the gate of the jungle!
"Let's go!" The two men glanced back and charged towards several buildings!
The three soldiers had grim expressions. Soon after, they entered the factory area from the factory gate.
As top-notch experts, these three naturally observed their surroundings before entering the factory. However, they didn't see the two foreigners or the flying machine that had landed earlier.
"What is that thing? Could it be something from the Stars and Stripes?" The captain of the soldiers frowned. Although drones were widespread worldwide, the top-tier ones were still from the Stars and Stripes. Initially, they thought it might be something domestic, but after communicating with their superiors on the way, they learned that nothing had been dispatched here!
Moreover, upon closer inspection, the flying machine looked nothing like a drone!
What could it be?
Jia Yan, the existence that both sides were wary of, flew from a blind spot unnoticed by everyone to the top floor of the central workshop building!
Crouching above the rooftop, he peered down with his eerie compound eyes!
"Below are the two opposing parties. I saw them a week ago!"
Jia Yan quickly recognized the figures of the two parties. A week ago, it was the clash between these two sides that caused panic among the public. Even the elderly foreigner, who seemed so old, was about to use the Desert Eagle on an innocent little girl.
That incident forced Jia Yan to reveal himself from hiding and save the girl!
And his brief appearance was captured by onlookers and became a hot topic online.
These two parties were the main reason for Jia Yan's exposure.
But Jia Yan didn't care. Even if he was exposed, he didn't think he couldn't survive now.
"They must still be in conflict, and clearly, those two foreigners are being pursued to this factory by reinforcements. I also searched online. The initial appearance of these two was near the outskirts of the capital, and then they almost came straight here! So, can I speculate that their initial target was the Northeast Tiger Factory... or, did the closure of the Northeast Tiger Factory have anything to do with these people?"
Jia Yan continued to analyze, but he had too little intelligence to think that the closure of the factory might involve some bigwigs and big forces. Even before, the Junkies had repelled several top domestic teams!
But these things weren't the focus for Jia Yan!
"Since these two foreigners are heading here, it might not be entirely bad for me! I'm just here, sitting on the mountain, watching the tigers fight!"
Jia Yan made his decision, lying on the rooftop, not planning to get involved in the battle between several top experts.
After all, getting involved wouldn't only be dangerous, but it wouldn't bring any benefits.
"There isn't much information here. Let's search in this so-called office building!"
In front of the office building among the three buildings, the two foreigners casually shot the door lock, destroying it!
As they dealt with the continuous gunfire from behind, the three approaching soldiers, they rushed towards the building!
The two clearly had some information about the factory.
This information might be related to the batch of workers who were first released from the factory. Although the Northeast Tiger was ruthless, it rarely resorted to such extreme measures as killing everyone!
But the result was that the information was leaked.
"The conditions here are too primitive. Even a private research institute from our Stars and Stripes is ten times better than this place! Is there really something we need to investigate in a place like this?" The elderly foreigner couldn't believe what he saw.
Although they had anticipated it, the appearance of this so-called office building still puzzled them. How could a place like this have something that even their Stars and Stripes government coveted?
"Don't think too much. The more secluded a place like this is, the more likely it is to have what we're looking for. Otherwise, it would have been taken by the Huaxia government long ago! Quick, let's see if there are
any relevant documents."
Crack!
Just as the two turned the corner, three soldiers also appeared from behind, aiming at the figures of the two hiding, and started shooting!
"Is this the factory office building mentioned in the information?" The captain of the soldiers frowned at the building in front of him.
This so-called office building, like its exterior, had only undergone simple renovations, and some walls still had cracks.
It was amazing that people like the Northeast Tiger were able to operate here for more than a year!
But it was also understandable. If there were large-scale renovations, the exposure here would increase.
"We pursue!" The three soldiers didn't spend much time observing the environment. After a brief look, they continued to chase after the two foreigners!
If there really was some secret here, it wasn't something these foreigners could touch. After all, this place still belonged to Huaxia!
Setting aside the grievances from previous battles, they also needed to drive the two foreigners out of their homeland. After that, whether they wanted to fight or kill, they could return to their own country to do so!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Clang! Clang!
Jia Yan lay on the rooftop of another building used as a workshop for the factory, feeling the intense gunfire from the office building.
"What an intense battle!"
His compound eyes shimmered with a faint light. These human battles had nothing to do with him.
He was just waiting for an opportunity!
The five top experts continued their intense battle in the office building!
As both sides started running low on ammunition, the battle, which had started with continuous gunfire, gradually became sporadic!
"You two, you're running out of ammo, aren't you? If you withdraw now and leave the country under our escort, our country won't hold you responsible. Please consider it."
The captain of the soldiers hid behind a wall and shouted.
"Hey, are you Huaxia people all cowards? Don't waste so much breath. If you have the guts, come and kill us!"
The elderly foreigner, also hiding in a room, while the young foreigner continuously searched through things in the room.
It seemed to be a dormitory, probably a room belonging to one of the Northeast Tiger's men. The young man searched the room with great professionalism for about two minutes, almost combing through every corner, but found nothing!
"Let's go!"
The two glanced at each other, and suddenly the young man rushed out of the room, broke through the door of an office diagonally opposite, and flew straight in!
His speed was too fast, and several soldiers aiming at him didn't have time to react, letting him escape.
"Hmm?"
However, the young foreigner, upon entering the office, furrowed his brows slightly.
In this office, there was a tall Huaxia man lying in a pool of blood, with a bullet hole in his chest...
He didn't move at all, seemingly having died not long ago.
