Ace Of Terrans-Chapter 340 Massacre.
Shi Lang and Darcx stood in front of a small building. This was the office of the small gene manufacturing company. Darcx had investigated and the people of this company were all with shady backgrounds. They all had some sort of dark past.
Shi Lang said while gripping his sword, "When I enter the building, you should stay outside if your heart is not strong enough. Also, channel spirit energy to cover your body. It will help us avoid thermal and infrared surveillance."
The voice was as cold as the wind from the glaciers. Darcx shivered and said, "Okay, Boss."
Shi Lang walked around in the camouflage suit, blending into the surroundings. He did not wish to trigger the enemy's instincts. Who knew if the people in this place had an independent surveillance system? After a few minutes of circling the place, his doubts proved to be true. There was indeed a network of cameras to look for them.
Shi Lang used his communicator, tapped into the signal emitted by the system here, and said, "OB-One, I want this system down."
An indifferent voice sounded in his ears, "Yes, Sir."
That said, the bot took only five minutes to reply back to Shi Lang that the task was completed. In the meantime, Darcx ran a scan over the building and told him, "Boss, there are fifty people inside the building, including thirty guards, all seemingly unregistered fourth-grade Terrans and they have weapons."
Shi Lang nodded and said, "They must have a record of their shady dealings and working methods, I want you to dig that record out. I will handle the rest of these low-lives."
Darcx nodded and he climbed the building from the outside Shi Lang entered the premise from the front door. He removed his camouflage, and the guards on the ground floor immediately took notice of him. One of them raised his gun and said, "Who are you? What do you want?"
Shi Lang replied, "Your guts."
Then his figure vanished from the spot and his blade swung. The layout of the floor was simple, with a reception counter facing the door, four burly guards were stationed in the area to maintain order and keep the people out. Shi Lang did not care whether it was four or forty, he was in there to kill and spill their guts.
The first time his swords slashed, the target wailed in pain. Shi Lang literally cut the man across his belly making all the internal organs fall out on the floor. The scene was absolutely garish and the faint-hearted might even puke. The man fell to the floor and died. It was a simple process and did not take more than a few seconds.
Shi Lang did not stop, he moved around like a ghost and the three more guards died before they knew. They did not even have the time to hoist up their guns and take aim. Shi Lang left their corpses to decorate the place. Their blood spread across the floor turning the scene red.
Shi Lang moved forward without restraint, he said, "OB-One, place my real profile on the hidden mode that could only be accessed by the cabinet members and the general council top brass. Create another fake profile with the details I tell you."
"Understood, Sire.", responded the bot.
By the time he reached the first floor, things were already done. He was aware that after this news, the syndicate will investigate him, and then they might suspect him as he was the person who was spotted in the vicinity of Red Widow twice.
On the first floor, there were a few employees working in their respective cubicles with four guards stationed at the two entrances as well. Shi Lang came in with a loud kick to the door, and he started attacking. The guards met the same fate as their brothers on the ground floor and the floor was filled with loud screams from the people. The young general did not want to chase after these insects so he asked OB-One to lock the other door on the floor.
He looked at the consoles and found that these people were grassroots workers. He asked, "So, do you all know that you are doing something illegal and your actions are affecting thousands of lives?"
The employees were scared, they did not understand why this messenger of god was talking to them. One of the quick-witted people said, "Sir, we only do what is asked of us in order to put food for our families."
Shi Lang looked at the man and said, "Then I ask you all to die, as, for the food and welfare of your families, it will be taken care of by my organization."
The people were not given a single chance and they were slaughtered. The reason Shi Lang did not show any compassion was because his HUD was displaying the information that all these meek-looking fellows were wolves in sheep's clothing. They were all orphans and had a bad record since childhood.
Shi Lang did not intend to let any single one of these scumbags out of this building alive. He progressed and left a trail of corpses behind him. The floor was glistening red. While Shi Lang was busy reaping lives, Darcx had infiltrated the small server room and planted a bug in the main unit. He wanted to ask what was going on at Shi Lang's side when his system alerted him about a secret division operative approaching them.
He moved out of the server room and came to the terrace. The person from another division also arrived a few minutes later and Darcx said, "What is a Shadow Executioner doing here?"
The person replied, "Do not act all high and mighty with me, Agent. I am here to supervise your operation. This area is under the Shadow Executioner's watch."
Darcx chuckled and said, "With all due respect, do you think you are qualified to supervise my boss? If commander Silence was here, then probably you had a chance."
? The other person asked, "What do you mean? Is your director personally acting here?"
Darcx was about to reply when he sensed that something was out of place here. Since Shi Lang had taken up this task then, with his status none of the secret divisions should approach him. He covertly sent a message to Shi Lang, in case this person was really a shadow executioner.
Shi Lang was alerted and Darcx asked the man, "Well, he is not my director but you should know him, he is the star of Shadow Executioners."
The person did not reply, and Darcx said, "Have you not heard of him?"
The person said, "Do you mean that the person with you is a Shadow Executioner?"
However, before he could get an answer, Darcx shot his handgun, and a hole appeared in the shoulder of the person. He tried to take out his gun, but Darcx fired again and made another hole in the able hand. Then he made two more holes in the knees of the person, letting him fall down and wail in misery.
Darcx asked, "Now, state your identity and I might let you go." 𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢
The man did not answer but kept screaming in pain, Darcx frowned and said, "Very well."
He raised his handgun, set it to stun and the man was silenced. He said in the comms, "Boss, I have a person here that might be of some help."
Shi Lang replied, "Fine, I am almost done here, we will leave and take this guy with us."
The two of them left the place after five minutes. The whole mission lasted for fifteen minutes, in and out. They only took some data and the injured half-dead poser.
...
The next morning the cleaning bots were switched on automatically and then they triggered the emergency alarm to alert the police and hospital. The patrol car rushed over to check the situation, but when they were at the gates of the building, they were shocked and rushed inside. However, soon after, major press offices and news channels were alerted.
The entire police station in sector ten was mobilized. The building was surrounded and the police took charge. The scene was too shocking and garish, but the smell in the air was even more irksome for them. The people were shocked when they arrived at the scene and the bodies were being carried off in body bags.
The news shocked the entire city and especially the Syndicate. Red Widow was sitting in her office and she was staring at the screen in a daze. The man who contacted her had told her that he will kill the people from their gene serum supplier. This was simply too outrageous and every single person has been killed in the same manner. All their stomach were open and their guts spilled.
She stood up from the chair and rushed out of the club office. One thing was for sure, this man was not simple and he might have the solution to her problem.
...
Shi Lang was staring at the man tied to the chair with a cold gaze. He said, "So, who are you?"
The man did not reply but kept staring at the black mask in front of him. Shi Lang tied this man up after the treatment. The place was a warehouse where he asked Commander Silence, also known as, Archie Arkham to arrange for his operation. This was a safe house where they even had a medical bay. ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢
Shi Lang also asked Archie Arkham about this man and found that this person was a retired member of the force. This made him find a new lead and even more enraged. He said, "You sure have the toughness of a secret division, but allow me to break you, Agent Ashburn."
