Chapter 953: Chapter 951: Faceted Light (24) Chapter 953: Chapter 951: Faceted Light (24) “It looks like we know where to start first,”
During the gaze exchange, Masked Man was the first to speak, not agitated but delighted.

It had to be said that the development of the matter was excessively smooth.

Especially if the last team member, the Fierce Man, hadn’t been killed in the gunfire just now.

“We need to hurry,”
And regarding his suggestion, the team members obviously had no objections.

As they talked, Red Dragon took the lead, his Blade Spear even being drawn for the first time, revealing its ferociously designed complete form.

Bang!

Then, the moment they turned the first corner, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, his head ducking.

Gravel sprayed as a bullet whizzed past his ear, crashing into the wall behind him and creating a crater.

“It’s us,”
Suddenly faced with danger, Red Dragon still managed to keep calm, shouting out immediately.

“Move quickly!”

Instead of a second shot, there came a counter-yell, and in the blink of an eye, a figure charged up to them.

It was indeed the last team member, the Fierce Man.

Except at this moment, he appeared quite disheveled.

Aside from the fluorescent spots on his body, the most eye-catching thing was the horrible bloodstain at his waist; at first glance, the flesh looked mangled.

“Retreat first; that side is too dangerous!”

Having rushed closer, the Fierce Man finally noticed the four people following behind him, and after a visible sign of relief, he immediately signaled the team to fall back.

Considering the still-bleeding evidence at his waist, nobody questioned him, and they went with the flow.

…

“No one is following us.”

Not long after, Qing, responsible for keeping watch, came back and signaled that everyone could take a brief rest.

The six-person team, now regrouped, was currently in a place styled like an office.

The door was naturally opened by the technician, Fu Qian, while Red Dragon, taking over her duties, was now hiding behind the door, on alert.

The office wasn’t large and didn’t have much in it; the injured Fierce Man was using a first-aid kit found by Lady Star to stop the bleeding of his wound himself.

“So you’re saying that there was a fully armed team over there that allows no one to approach?”

Masked Man, sitting on the side, seemed contemplative due to the news brought by the Fierce Man.

“Yes, their number might not be too many, but they are well-trained and the firepower is exaggerated,”
Gasping from the pain, the Fierce Man’s tone was quite certain.

“We didn’t find out their purpose, but their aggressiveness is undoubtedly very strong, firing upon sight without any communication.”

“Such a thing actually happened,”
Qing also furrowed her brows upon hearing this.

Considering the Fierce Man’s previous performance, he did not seem overly reliable, but the wounds on his body now lent him considerable credibility.

Although there was no bullet left inside, the gunshot wound was easy to identify.

“That’s your gun?”

At this time, Masked Man was focusing on another issue, looking at the weapon placed on the table by the Fierce Man.

“I took it,”
The Fierce Man’s explanation was straightforward and commanding; as he spoke, he even flashed his shirt, revealing another gun underneath.

Taken? That’s pretty brazen!

For a moment, even Red Dragon couldn’t help but turn back to look up to him.

“I’m sorry about earlier…”

Facing his gaze, the Fierce Man pondered for a moment and unexpectedly, contrary to his usual demeanor, apologized seriously.

After a slight hesitation, he even picked up the weapon from the table and threw it to Red Dragon.

“You know how to use this?”

“I do,”
Red Dragon, not expecting the Fierce Man to give up his weapon so readily, caught it and checked the ammunition.

“Good, I still have some bullets left, I’ll give them to you later,”
The Fierce Man continued talking while finally finishing treating his wound, breathing a long sigh of relief as he slumped into his seat.

It had to be said, his actions were quite generous, seemingly an apology for almost accidentally shooting him earlier.

But to be honest, with his shooting skills, whether Red Dragon ducked or not, he would have certainly missed anyway.

The Fierce Man’s offer to give away the gun could be taken as making amends through an apology and maybe to endear some goodwill.

He was clearly aware of his own combat capability, especially since he was wounded now.

Holding two guns, let alone being unable to use both at once, there was a risk of being accidentally shot by his teammates in a moment of urgency; it was better to give it away generously.

Out of everyone, after their interactions, Red Dragon was clearly one of the more straightforward ones.

Giving the weapon to him meant there was a higher chance he’d support him when it mattered.

These reasons weren’t hard to figure out, but now the question arose; how had the Fierce Man come by these weapons, and how had he come to this place more smoothly than the rest of them?

While unkindly guessing at the Fierce Man’s behavior, Fu Qian came to a question for which she wanted to know the answer.

“So, why are you here?”

Fortunately, without her having to ask, someone else had already done so.

“It’s simple, I don’t know what roles you each played just now, but this place was originally my assigned destination,”
The Fierce Man still looked feeble.

Wait, what?

This answer was indeed beyond expectations and challenging to imagine, with the questioner, Lady Star, and Qing exchanging glances, both unable to hide their shock.

“And after a brief understanding, I realized this may also be our destination,”
And the Fierce Man’s statements were surprisingly shocking.

“The role I was playing was something like a corporate spy, aiming to infiltrate this place, find a secretly researched object called ‘Prism,’ and either take it or destroy it,”
“Considering this name, I feel it might have a close connection to our goal, so I kept on searching my way down here,”
“Of course, this wasn’t easy; it was only just now that I approached the destination,”
“Yet, what I never expected was that even in a time of everyone evacuating, there was still a damn group guarding it…”
“It looks like we almost could rest,”
While the Fierce Man narrated, Masked Man listened intently, eventually uttering a sigh.

“But there’s one small problem, after the white light appeared, it seems like we all do not have a clear understanding of our own roles, how exactly do you know all these details?”

However, at that moment, Qing, frowning, raised a slight question.

Something does seem odd…
Reminded by her, the others also became full of new doubts.

“Isn’t that straightforward?”

The Fierce Man laughed.

“It was a two-person operation, my partner told me, and I also took that gun from him,”
…

This statement undoubtedly carried a lot of information.

Everyone immediately had an image in their mind of what the Fierce Man had done.

He’s a tough character, too; if his weapon was here, the fate of his partner was easy to deduce.

“It seems like everyone has been busy,”
At this point, Masked Man clapped his hands and finally gave a summary speech.

“But now there’s a problem; based on the Fierce Man’s experience, how should we get into that place?”
