The Empress's Gigolo
Chapter 704 - The Base (Part 3)
Panda Novel
The naval base covered an area of 405 hectares or four million square meters and was 62 km long.
86 percent of the land was used by that big western country, while the original owner of the area only used 14 percent of the land.
In the past, the base was busy, but orderly.
Today, it was very different.
Groups and groups of soldiers with live ammunition were turning the place upside down with their intensive search.
This made the self-defense forces next door somewhat puzzled as they tried every method to figure out what was happening.
However, they would never imagine that this carnage was caused by just one person.
With a twist of his wrist, Ren Baqian pulled out the spear from the throat of his victim.
In addition to the sound of blood spurting, there seemed to be the sound of leaking air.
Ren Baqian inexplicably thought of the saying: “If the strike is fast enough, there’s a pleasant sound like a blowing wind as the blood spurts out.”
When he read this phrase at that time, he felt a little sad, yet he was impressed.
Now that he had heard such a sound, he didn’t feel anything; it felt like killing a chicken.
He had already died so many times from being drowned, being burned, dying of thirst, and bleeding to death that he wasn’t able to feel anything at all.
Eight people were lying around haphazardly and no additional shots were fired.
This was his 11th encounter. Ren Baqian was growing more familiar with the usage of his weapons and becoming faster and faster at wielding his spear and killing people.
His five senses were superior to that of a normal person, so he was always able to ambush others from a concealed position.
At close range, these people were like grass growing by the roadside.
Ren Baqian pushed the door open with his spear and took a look outside. More and more people were moving nearby, and it looked like they were closing in on him.
Killing the two groups earlier had been like a walk in the park.
However, as time went by, the number of teams hunting him was increasing, so he had to pay more attention to hiding places and escape routes.
What he didn’t understand was why they didn’t track him down right from the start, but chose to surround him instead.
They were afraid of letting him escape, so they only started to search for him within this area later.
The whole base had been mobilized, and in addition to the troops surrounding him, 2,000 soldiers were diverted here to help search for him.
A man walked into a room in the building across from Ren Baiqan, spotted him standing at the window, and immediately reported, “Over there!”
Ren Baqian could hear the sound of running footsteps coming from downstairs, but he was in no hurry to leave and instead waited at a corner of the staircase for them to come up.
Although these soldiers began to lighten their steps, the sounds couldn’t escape his ears.
Two combat squads gestured at each other and prepared to attack from two directions, one from upstairs and one from downstairs. Then, they slowly advanced.
The corridor outside the room was filled with corpses. Ren Baqian opened the window and jumped out.
Instead of jumping down, he jumped up six to seven meters and was almost level with the roof.
With a swing of his palm, a silver-colored metal chain was thrown out and wrapped around the drainage pipe on the rooftop. Ren Baqian pulled himself toward the wall and used one of his legs to kick the wall to propel himself up to the rooftop.
He had just figured out this new method.
In the complex environment inside the base, the Metal Chain wasn’t only used to kill people.
Instead, it could also let him mimic Peter Parker as Spiderman.
“He’s up there on the rooftop!”
After landing on the rooftop, Ren Baqian paused to survey the surroundings.
There were many buildings in the vicinity. Some were the same height as the building he was on, and the gaps between then were under 20 meters.
This distance was within his ability to jump across.
17 meters was the furthest he could jump after a running start, but if the Metal Chain could wrap itself around something for leverage, he could gain another nine meters.
The total distance he could cover was about 26 meters.
Looking into the distance, he discovered some problems.
Rows of soldiers could be seen in the surrounding area with their guns aimed at him.
They were located in an open space that surrounded the building he was on.
“I have been surrounded!” Ren Baqian did not panic after realizing the situation. Instead, he headed in another direction and jumped more than 10 meters away without using the Metal Chain.
“There are also soldiers in this direction.”
Ren Baqian moved quickly around the rooftop and confirmed that he was surrounded.
It looked like there were about 1,000 people in each direction. There were about three people every 10 meters, forming a net that sealed up this area.
It seemed like their intention was to confine him within these 10 plus buildings here.
“Too bad you won’t succeed.” Ren Baqian smiled. He looked in front and faced them. Below him, there was a two-lane road where the soldiers were gathered.
On the other side of the road was a four story building that was less than 25 meters away, which was within his jumping range.
Their blockade was sufficient for ordinary people, and if he did not use the Metal Chain, his movements would be limited. However, this blockade was of no threat to him now.
More importantly, not far away from that small building was a row of warehouses.
It was unknown whether these warehouses stored materials or ammunition.
As Ren Baqian stood on the rooftop to look in front, his whole body suddenly felt a chill.
“Somebody is aiming at me!” Ren Baqian realized. Subsequently, he positioned the spear to his right.
Ting! There was a spark in the air.
The sound of a gunshot followed.
“A sniper? He was aiming for my right leg.” Ren Baqian looked in that direction and saw a lighthouse, but he was unable to clearly see the person there.
Ren Baqian stood up with his spear in hand and smiled grimly in that direction. If the sniper was closer, he would have let him know what a flying spear looked like.
Unfortunately, the sniper was too far away.
Ren Baqian ran two steps forward, jumped hard, threw out the Metal Chain at the end of the jump, and pulled himself up to the rooftop.
He jumped across majestically over everyone’s heads to the other side and disappeared from the sniper’s line of sight.
In the lighthouse, a man lying prone behind a rifle was left gaping for a long time.
What had he seen? He saw the target using a stick to block his bullet!
Furthermore, the target blocked the shot after he had already fired.
How could the target’s actions be faster than a bullet?
“He’s on the rooftop—he jumped across! God, is he Spiderman?” The people below fell into chaos after Ren Baqian jumped across.
He was too fast for them and flashed across above their heads as they fixed their eyes on him. They could only see a faint image, and there was no way to stop him.
He simply broke out of this encirclement of thousands of people with this jump.
One reason was the complex environment of the base. Besides the harbor, the rest of the area had many tall buildings. This made it convenient for Ren Baqian to move freely, but hindered the movements of the rest.
The other reason was that the people at the base were not accustomed to handling such an exceptional person.
Even though they had raised their estimation of Ren Baqian, his power was not within the scope of their understanding of a biomedically enhanced man.
For example, he was much stronger and much faster than they expected.
His overall strength was a combination of power, speed, the five senses, and coordination. Furthermore, he had two Heaven-grade weapons that possessed great abilities.
