Chapter 658: Breaching Bremen
by xennovelChapter 658: Breaching Bremen (Update 1)
Xiao Yu’s words and the sudden turn of events sent an electric shock through Duolan’s entire body.
Lin, serving as the branch chief of the Federal Intelligence Bureau, had been in command ever since.
She had never imagined witnessing a scene like this.
It left her unable to think, even forgetting to breathe.
In her despair, Duolan managed to scream out three words: “Who are you?”
“Dragon Kingdom National Security, Team 10 Leader.”
These words were meant only for them: as they left Xiao Yu’s lips, Duolan heard, “Farewell!”
Dragon Kingdom… Team 10 Leader?
Duolan shuddered violently, disbelief and shock etched on her face.
Baffled, a saying from the Dragon Kingdom echoed in her mind.
A true commander stands at the center of battle—strategizing for victory without building impossible defenses.
Why would a top National Security leader personally get involved?
Alas, Duolan would never grasp the Dragon Kingdom’s adage: ‘Lead from the front.’
How can a commander expect to lead an army if he won’t even take the first step?
Crack!
Like snapping a chicken’s neck, Xiao Yu effortlessly twisted Duolan’s until it broke.
Bang!
Another sniper round was fired.
Xiao Yu had long left his position, appearing before a well-dressed man who had drawn his gun.
Thud!
A single punch shattered the man’s ribcage, crushing his heart.
One could clearly see the man’s back bulge in an instant.
In the moment he fell, his pistol landed in Xiao Yu’s grasp.
Bang! Bang!
When the door burst open, two suited men who rushed in were shot before they could react.
The pistol in Xiao Yu’s hand fired again, delivering follow-up shots.
As they collapsed, both men suffered bullet wounds to the forehead…
Boom!
Yet another sniper round whizzed past Xiao Yu.
As he moved swiftly, an uneasy feeling churned deep inside him.
You really have some nerve, huh?
In an instant.
Xiao Yu’s body froze mid-motion; he pointed toward the window and pulled the trigger.
Bang… a bullet flew out.
At the 11th-floor bay window of a business building just a hundred meters from the hotel,
a sniper who had been targeting Xiao Yu toppled to the ground.
Strolling casually, Xiao Yu left the business suite and encountered none other than Grant from earlier.
Bang!
With a cold gaze fixed on the fallen old man, Xiao Yu sneered.
“You like fishing, don’t you?”
“Does it feel great to catch a shark only to be bitten to death?”
As he continued, his passive hunting mode kicked in.
He knocked out a hotel guest, changed his clothes, and, using his Disguise Expert skills, altered his appearance.
Xiao Yu then walked out of the hotel openly, heading straight for a shopping mall.
Once inside the mall,
he knocked out another man, swapped the man’s clothes, and re-disguised himself.
Until he finally stepped out, completely vanishing into the crowd…
The entire city of Bremen was in chaos.
The head of the Security Bureau branch had been assassinated.
The Security Bureau was breached—an entire Special Forces team wiped out.
Countless security personnel, special operatives, guards, and military police were killed or wounded…
The branch chief of the Intelligence Bureau was also assassinated.
All accompanying personnel—including one sniper and three agents—were killed.
Their satellite data was stolen…
Both the Security and Intelligence Bureaus erupted in fury.
The entire city of Bremen was completely sealed off!
……
Two days later.
In a city roughly 400 kilometers from Bremen,
Berlin Airport.
Two unassuming Asian youths passed through security and entered the waiting lounge.
They then proceeded through the boarding gate onto a commercial flight.
As the plane took off, one of the youths remained dazed and in disbelief.
“Is this really how we leave?”
A noticeably transformed Song Jiaxi, his face filled with incredulity, glanced at the equally changed, eyes-closed Xiao Yu beside him.
He couldn’t wrap his mind around the absurdity of it all and even sensed a mysterious aura.
“I worked really hard, you know?”
Xiao Yu opened his eyes, the fatigue in them barely hidden.
Hard work?
Song Jiaxi’s expression grew complex.
This isn’t just hard work—it’s you breaching all of Bremen, my team leader!
“Actually…”
Song Jiaxi grinned, “It’s an honor to know you!”
“How much of an honor?” Xiao Yu asked with a half-smile.
I swear… Song Jiaxi nearly wet himself.
Hey, hey, hey—you’re the big team leader, you know.
Is that really the way to talk?
“Anyway…”
Still unable to mimic Xiao Yu’s tone like Wang Dong and Zhou Lie, Song Jiaxi insisted, “It’s an honor!”
But was the former Team 10 Leader always like this?
Are you sure this is okay?
Won’t you die?
“Hehe!”
Teasing his little brother, Xiao Yu chuckled, “Head back and do some desk work.”
Desk work… Song Jiaxi’s expression shifted imperceptibly.
After everything that had happened, did he really have the courage to continue fieldwork?
He wasn’t sure.
The persistent defiance and burning passion inside him insisted otherwise.
No, that kind of work just isn’t for me.
He longed, as his parents and grandparents did,
to be someone who defends the nation!
“I…”
Gathering his courage, Song Jiaxi looked directly at Xiao Yu and declared, “I don’t want to!”
Xiao Yu’s face instantly darkened.
Something about this scene just didn’t add up.
After all our hard work rescuing you, big brother, can’t you behave?
“This isn’t about whether you want it or not.”
Xiao Yu said gravely, “The nation won’t allow you—its sole heir—to vanish, understand?”
“Then that’s fine.”
Song Jiaxi giggled, “I’ll find a girlfriend soon, get married, and have offspring in no time!”
Your bragging sure has a bit of my youthful flair… Xiao Yu couldn’t help but laugh.
Is it really that easy to find a girlfriend?
Young… wait, this guy’s older than me!
Xiao Yu shook his head and offered a wry smile.
Fourteen hours later.
Capital City Airport.
The nine National Security team leaders led a column of agents, watching the plane slowly touch down.
Alighting from the plane, Song Jiaxi was both shocked and exhilarated by the sight.
Xiao Yu maintained a calm demeanor, as if nothing was wrong.
It wasn’t showboating—it was the unmistakable aura of his current status. A true warrior always comes with his own special effects.
And if you add some background music, it would be even better…
After shaking hands with all nine team leaders without any unnecessary chatter, Xiao Yu pointed to Song Jiaxi (also known as Wang Dehao) beside him and said, “I’m skipping the boss meeting—I’m too tired. We’ll handle it later.”
Under watchful, perplexed gazes, Xiao Yu entered the airport and boarded a flight bound for Bincheng.
He was truly exhausted.
He craved the warmth of home and a sister’s embrace.
Armed with his Psychological Expert abilities, Xiao Yu knew very well the toll post-battle trauma could take.
It was like a blunt knife slicing through flesh, subtly changing your inner self.
Before you knew it, your nature had completely transformed.
If you don’t adjust soon, your personality will change irrevocably.
And that wasn’t a fate Xiao Yu wanted!
【Ding, Congratulations, Host…】
“Congrats, you asshole…” On the plane, eyes closed, Xiao Yu muttered under his breath: “Get lost!”
He couldn’t understand why he felt so stubborn.
There was always a nagging feeling that his life was veering off course!
……
PS: I need to adjust my routine; from now on I’ll update during the day.
Staying up late is just too much—this pressure is unbearable.
Cheers, fellas!
