Samsara Online

Shanghai, Golden Emperor Villa Complex.

Being one of the most luxurious villa complexes in the whole city of Shanghai, the Golden Emperor Villa Complex had all kinds of security systems; security cameras, a wall, and a huge door that protected the inside from the outside with a powerful electric charge in them, movement sensors, etc. The security of the place was enough for people with a lot of money or power to have a life without too many worries inside.

From time to time, a patrol with two or three men armed with guns and trained in the army would go around the inside of the villa complex to make sure everything was working properly.

On the 10th floor of a building 700 meters away.

A group of men and women were silent, each one busy with different tasks. The age of this group of people varied from 23 years old to 50 years old. Such a group had arrived this afternoon and since then none of them had talked more than necessary.

A man of approximately 33 years of age approached a table with all kinds of suitcases and large bags of luggage. He picked up a suitcase looking like a guitar and approached to the window silently. His feet seemed never to touch the floor as his footsteps did not cause the slightest echoing sound.

When the man reached the window, he knelt down and left the guitar-shaped case on the floor, then he opened it. Surprisingly, what was inside the apparently instrumental case was not a guitar; it was a sniper!

The man picked up the sniper without saying a word and took up a shooting position while aiming out the window. The direction in which this man was aiming was towards the Golden Emperor Villas Complex!

*Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap...*

A man with some gray hair and apparently the oldest man in the group had a deep frown on his face and a look of uneasiness could be seen in his eyes. Unconsciously, the older man started tapping his finger on the table in front of him, which broke the silence of the place.

The sound of the finger tapping on the table extended for almost ten whole minutes until a young woman of about 26 years old could not resist complaining:

"Weasel, what the hell is wrong with you? Can you stop tapping on the table now?"

The older man named Weasel looked at the woman with a frown but ignored her. After thinking for a moment, Weasel looked at the younger man in the group and expressed his concern: "Team Captain Qin, I think we should leave this place..."

Qin Lim was only 24 years old but his talent combined with his family's help allowed him to reach the position of Captain of a group of more than 200 people. However, since the mission they were to carry out soon had to be handled carefully, the group was divided into small sub-groups and scattered around.

With a casual smile, Qin Lim looked at Weasel and raised an eyebrow: "Retire? Would you mind giving me the reason why we should leave this place?"

Hearing his leader begin to talk after a day of silence, everyone, including the man with the sniper, looked at him and paid attention to the ongoing conversation.

Weasel frowned and hesitated momentarily. His real name was Xuan Zhong and this year he was 49 years old. The reason everyone called him Weasel was because even in extreme danger he always managed to slip away somehow. In a mission carried out several years ago in the Middle East, a group of almost 20 elite men were discovered by the enemy and annihilated... The only survivor was Xuan Zhong; which gave him the nickname of Weasel.

"I don't know why, but for almost a whole hour I've been feeling something strange... I feel that something or someone is spying on us... It is as if a pair of eyes were looking at us like a lion looking at a group of sheep..." Weasel finally explained the reason for his anxiety during all this time.

Weasel's words caused the whole group to become silent and the faces of some of them changed slightly. However, all of those who had a slight concern on their faces were people who were over 40 years old. The faces of the young people did not change at all at his words.

After a few seconds of silence, Qin Lim said slowly:

"So, let me see if I understand correctly... You want us, based on your feeling of anxiety that came out of who knows where, to leave this place and the mission... A mission that was given by people that I cannot afford to disobey, much less you... I understood well?"

Listening to Qin Lim's words, the group of young people could not help but laugh. Even several middle-aged men shook their heads and stopped paying attention. If all of them were to leave every mission assigned to them because of the fear or anxiety of one member of the group, then they would become the greatest joke and disgrace in the world.

Qin Lim stood up and walked to the water tap and washed his face to clear the fatigue accumulated during the travel and not sleep for more than 24 hours. Then, he looked at Weasel and said slightly:

"Weasel, here we have enough equipment to fight against an army of 500 men without any worries... We have heavy weapons, rocket launchers, grenades, armor piercing bullets, for God's sake, even our clothes have a camouflage function... Although this also means that this could be a hard mission, it is not enough to retire. Just relax a little bit, tomorrow morning it will all be over"

Qin Lim dried his hands and turned around to return to his seat.

It had to be said that although Qin Lim was young and arrogant, he was no idiot. His words made everyone relax, after all, with the training they received over the years plus the equipment they received, they were confident enough to do almost anything. Not to mention that all they had to do was simply kidnap a girl; not assassinate, just kidnap!

Even Weasel visibly relaxed when he heard Qin Lim. He sighed and shook his head as he thought:

'I must be getting old... This time we are not in the Middle East, which can go wrong... I should retire when I return to Beijing and enjoy more time with my family.' Just as Weasel was thinking that, he saw that behind Qin Lim's back, the water tap suddenly opened and a woman's body formed in less than a second.

"Watch out!" Weasel shouted.

Everyone stood up and picked up their weapons at a terrifying speed. Everyone's reaction speed was almost at the limit of a normal human being! They all started shooting without a doubt at the strange woman who appeared out of nowhere!

*Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang!....*

Every bullet that hit the woman's body disappeared. It was like a stone thrown to the bottom of the ocean!

Qin Lim's face changed as even without Weasel's warning he had felt the danger of death coming from behind his back! Instead of looking back, Qin Lim quickly did everything possible to get away from the place.

*Swoosh!*

However, unfortunately for Qin Lim, the person he was facing was not a normal human being. The woman's right hand exploded and thousands of tiny drops of water shot out at Qin Lim!

Qin Lim quickly covered his head and was hit by hundreds of water drops. Although these water drops seemed harmless, even one drop of water could become a deadly weapon if shot at an explosive speed!

Qin Lim was sent flying and his body hit the wall from several meters away: "Ugh..."

*Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang!....*

The sound of shots continued for a few seconds until it finally stopped completely. The smoke coming out of the muzzle of the guns, the heat from the guns, the wall separating the living room from one of the rooms was destroyed by Qin Lim, furniture destroyed A cloud of dust and destruction adorned the previously silent and peaceful apartment.

"What the hell..." Qin Lim, staggering, stood up. Thanks to the fact that under his clothes he wore special armor and covered his head with his arms, he survived the woman's attack!

But when Qin Lim saw his entire team lying on the ground, bathed in their own blood, he felt his own blood freeze with terror. In just five seconds, an elite team disappeared!

"Who the hell are you!? Do you know what you're doing!? I am the Captain of the 107th Blood Eagle Legion Assault Squad and what you just did is no different than going up against the entire Chinese government!" Qin Lim shouted out loud as he looked at the woman. He shouted to try to shake off the fear he felt while trying to make the strange woman retreat.

The woman of approximately 29 or 30 years of age ignored him. She simply turned into water and went back into the water pipe, disappearing from the site.

Just as Qin Lim was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he noticed that the walls of the apartment had a faint yellow glow covering them. What happened next made Qin Lim fall to the floor with his eyes wide open and he could not believe what was happening tonight.

Suddenly, from the floor, a person came out!

The man seemed to be between 25 and 30 years old, his body was big and powerful, like a human beast. But when Qin Lim saw the man's face, he sighed with relief:

"Sir Yang Tian."
