The Anhong Association is a violent organization in the Border District, quite large in scale, controlling the black industries of several blocks, with over a dozen establishments ranging from casinos, nightclubs, to fight arenas, and the core group members exceed two hundred, with thousands of peripheral minions.

No one knows why the Mercenaries have targeted the Anhong Association.

Perhaps they offended an official from the authorities.

Or maybe some other group is using them as pawns.

Or maybe they meddled with something they shouldn’t have.

Regardless of the reason, today at dusk, they encounter an incredibly deadly opponent.

In the district occupied by the Anhong Association, a brutal offensive and defensive battle is unfolding.

The Tiger Teeth Mercenaries, clad in combat uniforms and wielding standard firearms, operate in groups of three, forming over a hundred assault units.

They cover each other, advancing gradually, their weapons erupting with blinding flames, the gunfire symphony forming a killing spree.

Around the district’s buildings, Anhong Association thugs can be seen wielding weapons, occupying vantage points and retaliating with fierce roars.

The thugs’ brutality often gives a misconception that they are strong.

But this “strength” comes with preconditions.

Against ordinary people, these ruthless thugs are indeed strong.

But when they encounter real tough opponents, the so-called “strength” gets crushed.

Most Border District thugs are street-born, fighting is their daily routine, yet they lack genuine military prowess.

Smashing places, clashing with other groups, they excel.

But put them on a battlefield to coordinate tactics, they fall short.

The Anhong Association thugs are no exception.

They have no command, fighting individually, exposed to fierce suppressing fire from the Tiger Teeth Mercenaries as soon as they show their heads.

The Tiger Teeth Mercenaries are well-equipped and seasoned; when a warrior needs to reload, a companion fills in, alternating constantly, ensuring uninterrupted suppression.

Some thugs fired only a few shots before being riddled with bullets.

Others hid behind cover, bullets whistling overhead, debris sprinkling on their faces, leaving them unable to lift their heads, only to curse in fury.

However, the Tiger Teeth Mercenaries were not entirely smooth-sailing.

This world possesses extraordinary powers, yet extraordinary beings are rare.

Becoming an extraordinary being requires a fortune.

Even a mercenary corps like Tiger Teeth, with hundreds of members, has only about a dozen extraordinary beings, the rest are ordinary people.

Now, as the encirclement tightens, the Anhong Association thugs’ defense becomes denser, leading to inevitable casualties among the ordinary mercenaries.

“Thunk!” A bullet hit the wall, the flying debris leaving a Tiger Teeth Mercenary’s face bloodied, injuring his eye, causing him to scream in agony.

“Someone is wounded!” Gao Hai drags the wounded mercenary to a safe zone, shouting at the medic, “Take him to the back! I’ll fill his position!”

Gao Hai protrudes his gun from cover, crazily firing at the enemy’s strongpoints.

Both sides exchange fire for several minutes, constantly having people shot and fall, yet neither side advances.

Amidst the stalemate, suddenly a Tiger Teeth Mercenary steps out from cover.

Gao Hai thought it was some rookie eager for glory, about to call him back.

But upon recognizing the figure, he grins confidently.

It was none other than the Tiger Fang Mercenary Corps’ leader, Ou Chenyu.

Ou Chenyu walks leisurely towards the Anhong Association’s defense line.

A thug notices him, immediately firing, a bullet whizzing straight at him.

With a swift grab, his fist suspends mid-air, then slowly releases.

“Clang.” The bullet drops from his palm, hitting the ground with a crisp sound.

In the next moment, electronic currents appear across Ou Chenyu’s body, a sign that the cybernetic enhancements are ramping up.

“Boom!” He accelerates with cybernetic propulsion, instantly becoming a distorted blur, breaking into the Anhong Association’s position.

His palms suddenly split open, yet no blood gushes out, only two embedded gun barrels emerging.

“Pew pew pew pew pew——” The sharp sound of gunfire erupts, Ou Chenyu constantly altering postures, like dancing on the battlefield, lavishly scattering energy bullets onto the surrounding enemies.

After a round of firing, the two gun barrels retreat into the palms, mechanical whirring resonates again.

Moments later, the recharged barrels extend once more, delivering another barrage to the enemy.

Blood mist rises over the Anhong Association’s position, yet no screams are heard, for each hit results in a headshot, instantly killing the target.

Under Ou Chenyu’s mighty power, this position is utterly destroyed.

The Anhong Association’s defense line opens a gap, other places couldn’t hold either, torn apart by the incoming Tiger Teeth Mercenaries, desperate cries from thugs echoing continuously.

At this time, a sorrowful shout comes from behind an Anhong Association cover: “Director Ou! You killed all my Mountain Cat brothers! I don’t know how Anhong Association provoked you, but why demand utter annihilation? Can’t we talk things over, without shedding blood?!”

Ou Chenyu retracts the barrels into his body, calmly saying: “Don’t blame me, I’m just doing a job for money. Mountain Cat, you’re a notable leader in the Border District, you should understand, in this business, debts will be repaid eventually.”

Mountain Cat’s anguished voice arises: “I created the Anhong Association! I take full responsibility for its consequences! Give me a chance, let’s duel one-on-one!”

“If I win, you retreat with your men, never return! If I lose, you can dispose of my life as you wish, but please give my brothers a chance to surrender!”

Ou Chenyu raises his thumb: “Alright, you’re a man, let’s duel!”

A man in a leather jacket steps out from behind cover, it’s apparent he also has cybernetic enhancements, yet far inferior to Ou Chenyu in number and grade.

No need to fight, the outcome is predetermined.

The choice to face death is merely for securing a survival path for his brothers.

Mountain Cat clenches his teeth, deploying the combat blade embedded beneath his wrist.

Ou Chenyu reverses his grip on the Fire Lizard Laser Combat Knife upon his back, withdrawing it with a “swish”.

Its fiery red blade emits scorching energy streams, converging at the edge, forming a high-temperature laser cutting surface.

Anhong Association thugs burst into tears: “Big brother, don’t go!”

Mountain Cat takes a final glance at his brothers: “Big brother can’t accompany you all anymore, walk the future path well on your own.”

He yells out loudly, charging towards Ou Chenyu without hesitation.

“Boom!” Ou Chenyu’s leg with cybernetic power surges, wielding the Fire Lizard Laser Combat Knife, unleashing a blazing torrent, seamlessly slashing across Mountain Cat’s body.

Inertia propels Mountain Cat forward by several steps, startled in place, observing the charred scar that traverses his waist.

Gradually, his upper body slides down to the ground, with the lower body following suit, divided into two halves.

Being halved doesn’t cause instant death, Mountain Cat lies on the ground, sweating profusely from pain, yet his eyes reveal contentment.

One life exchanged for so many brothers to live on…

Worth it.

But soon, a change occurs.

After the Anhong Association members surrender and are bound, the Tiger Teeth Mercenaries suddenly press them to kneel, aiming guns at the back of their heads.

This is clearly an execution posture!

Mountain Cat, shocked and angry, like Ou Chenyu, demands: “You promised to give my brothers a chance to surrender!”

Ou Chenyu rubs his ear, feigning confusion: “Huh? Did I say that? I forgot.”

Mountain Cat’s despairing roar: “You despicable scoundrel!!!”

Ou Chenyu sneers: “Trash doesn’t qualify to negotiate terms with me.”

“Bang!” He says, shooting Mountain Cat’s head.

The Tiger Teeth Mercenaries fire simultaneously, gunshots erupt, executing all surrendered Anhong Association members, making the group disappear from the Border District.
