"Hmm!" A blue light burst out from the center of his eyebrows, and a blue light shield the size of a washbasin suddenly appeared about an inch in front of Gu Xie's forehead. The thin light shield looked like it could be blown away with just one breath, but the large-caliber sniper bullet hit it and was stuck there, just like a fly trapped in rosin, only spinning around for a few circles before becoming motionless.

  Nearly a hundred warriors belonging to the Hades Defense Company were standing by the convoy, waiting for Gu Xiechen and others. As soon as the gunshot sounded, they simultaneously drew their guns and aimed at the direction of the incoming bullets. What enraged everyone present was that the sniper who shot Gu Xiechen was actually standing up and waving his hand wildly in this direction.

  "How bold!"

  Peng Hua let out a loud roar, he rushed forward one step and grabbed a car with one hand, and threw it at the gunman more than 200 meters away in a straight line. The car brought up a fierce whirlwind in the air, and almost as soon as Peng Hua threw it, it arrived at the top of the crazy gunman's head.

  Gǔ Xié Chén's body flashed, his feet stomping out a burst of true energy. The cloud-patterned boots on his feet shone with a faint, shimmering light. On the path ahead, there was a loud crash as he blasted out a crater about a meter in diameter. His body shot out like a cannonball, whizzing through the air to land on top of the car that had been thrown at him. With a light tap of his toe, the car was about to crush the sniper's head when Gǔ Xié Chén kicked it into smithereens. The soft, gentle power dispersed into countless tough, resilient streams of energy that tightly wrapped the car's fragments together. Dozens of sharp shards whizzed past the sniper's face, barely missing him.

  His body arced beautifully through the air, landing lightly behind the sniper and wrapping around his neck.

  Wearing the stealth suit, the sniper's body suddenly stiffened as he turned his head with difficulty to look at Gu Xiechen and asked in terror, "You... how didn't you die?" Gu Xiechen playfully patted the sniper's face, her fingertips like knives, easily tearing off the tough mask from his face. The sound of the blade cutting through the mask was like a sharp hiss, making the sniper's face turn pale. The stealth suit's mask could withstand small-energy laser cuts, what material were Gu Xiechen's hands made of?

  His slender fingers brushed against the trigger, inches from his throat. Gu Xie dust gazed at the youthful face before him and smiled, "You think I'm dead? No wonder you're so eager to stand up and show off your triumph." Ke's face turned bright red as he let out a shrill roar, shocked, enraged, and humiliated, "You're just an ordinary fighter from the Underworld Star Realm, how could you possibly dodge my custom-made high-energy bullet?"

  Meng Wang Xing level fighter? Gu Xie dust was stunned, he shook his head and chuckled, "What era is this old almanac from? Ha!"

  The warriors of the Hadron Defense Company have arrived, and Gu Xie Chen handed over the snipers to them. Several warriors quickly searched the sniper's body and took away two daggers, twelve extremely thin knife blades, and seventy-two poisonous flying needles. What surprised Gu Xie Chen the most was that this guy had even hidden a small three-edged military dagger in his groin!

  The bearded captain was extremely angry and scolded the high-ranking officials, including Ling Hu, that the enemy had already infiltrated to the entrance of their own company's headquarters, yet not a single piece of intelligence had been received. This was a serious dereliction of duty on the part of the newly established defense company's intelligence department! It didn't take much imagination to think that if Gu Xiechen were to be sniped at the gate of his own company, the freshly minted Haide faction defense company would lose all face and have to return to their old profession as mercenaries, risking their lives for money.

  "How vicious!" Sai Yin chuckled a few times and said calmly, "This is going to trample our faces on the ground."

  "It's just your face, and my life!" With a shrug of his shoulders, Gu Xiechen deftly pulled out a cigar from Da Hu Zi's pocket. After being handed a light by the red-faced Leng Hu, Gu Xiechen laughed and said, "Alright, alright, our company has just been established, everyone is feeling their way through, no one has any experience, right? Can't blame Leng Hu, defense companies and mercenary groups still have some differences."

  He paused, Gu Xie dust patted his chest and laughed, "Isn't it just the intelligence department? In two days I'll come up with an idea. As long as Uncle Hu Zi is willing to spend money, a brilliant intelligence officer, I can get you a reinforced company!"

  The big-bearded captain's eyes lit up, and Leng Hu's eyes shone even brighter, like a small light bulb.

  The streets were filled with the sound of police sirens, followed by gunfire and cars being overturned. Pedestrians on the street had already reported the incident to the police. Gu Xie dust signaled Sai Ren and Arediya to deal with the police, while he pulled the bearded colonel to a corner on the rooftop.

  "Uncle Whiskers, what's going on? Although I have a lot of trouble on my body, the people who want to kill me will never use such a ridiculous method as sniping. Who is the enemy?" The bearded captain cursed for a few words with his teeth gritted, and said with a gloomy face, "Enemy?

  Enemy... He sighed and shook his head, "Originally, I wanted to tell you after the welcoming banquet this time......" Just as he was about to continue, the communication device on Major Big Beard's wrist suddenly vibrated a few times. With an extremely annoyed expression, he answered the call. On the small screen, a thin, gloomy middle-aged man with a distinctive eagle-shaped nose proudly raised his cigar and smiled...

  "Oh, dear Big Beard, I heard that your first deputy commander is back? Is he in good health now?"

  "Damn you, Jin Keli! You son of a bitch! I'll definitely blow you up with the big jade stick!"

  Captain Huzi flew into a rage and bellowed loudly.

  "Geez, what's with the heat coming my way? I swear to Almighty God, it wasn't me! That sniper and I are unrelated! All I know is that someone put a 5 million bounty on your deputy's head, but it has nothing to do with me." Jin Ke Li smirked, his smile extremely self-satisfied. "I didn't intentionally conceal this matter, my state just received this intel three minutes ago."

  Kuxie dust grabbed the wrist of the big beard captain and turned the light screen towards himself.

  "Mr. Jin, regardless of what you do, thank you for your kindness." Gu Xiechen said coldly. "As a return for your kindness, I will help Uncle Hu choose the most robust genetically modified corn on the cob in the world, apply some glue and sand to it, and then insert it into your ass!" Gu Xiechen's piercing gaze made Jin Keli stunned, he involuntarily exclaimed, "You... are you alive?"

  He's going to make a smaller wolf-toothed club for you! Go die!" The endless slaughter on the Heavenly Star had brought about great changes in Gu Xie Chen's temperament, and now he was filled with proactive aggression. A barrage of curses left Jin Ke Li's face pale, and Gu Xie Chen shut off the communication device of the Big Whiskers Captain.

  "Uncle Whiskers, what's going on? What is that Jin Ke Li doing?" Gu Xie frowned at the whiskered captain.

  Furrowing his brow and shaking his head, the bearded captain sighed, "Forget it, Evil Dragon. I was going to tell you about this tomorrow, but since you just got back from your trip, I didn't want these things to ruin your mood."

  He let out a deep sigh, and the bearded captain said helplessly, "Defense companies are not like mercenary groups. Our Hell's Angel Mercenary Group is ranked second in the Federation, with a loud reputation, and even the authorities don't dare to do anything to us. But this defense company that has been officially recognized by the Federation, this water is too deep."

  In addition to the newly formed Hadewe Defense Company, there are five old defense companies in the Federation, among which e Gongpai is the oldest and has existed since the 93rd Earth Counterattack War. They have deep roots in the Federation and have close connections and cooperation with all aspects of society. Their tentacles reach into every aspect of the Federation, each one a behemoth that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

  "How could I have forgotten them?" Gu Xiechen furrowed his brow, and it was no longer necessary for Captain Big Beard to say anything more. Let's take E Company as an example. This company has a close partnership with the Gu Group, and they even own 4.7% of the shares in the Gu Group! The cooperation content is handled by Gu Juechen, so Gu Xiechen doesn't have a thorough understanding of the details, but he also obtained some intelligence through his channels. Among the sixty-seven categorized research institutes of the Gu Group, eighteen have E Company researchers participating in their projects. In the hundreds of factories distributed around the world under the Gu Group, fifty-nine have established customized production lines for E Company, manufacturing various special firearms and equipment as needed.

  This alone shows the difference between Hattori and these old defense companies, Hattori's research machine float sign hasn't even been made yet! All of Hattori's military equipment is discarded goods from the federal army!

  With his hands behind his back, Gu Xiechen tapped his feet lightly and thought for a while. He sneered, "Uncle Hu, what demands did they make?" Commander Big Beard sneered, "They said that seven days later, the six major defense companies will hold an exchange conference on Easter Island, including a tournament of the top masters from each company!" A fierce punch slammed onto the railing beside him, and Commander Big Beard snarled, "They said that whichever company loses in the tournament, all their high-ranking officials will run around Easter Island three times with their bare buttocks clenching an 'Ah-Mi' stick!"

  Kuxie dust shock anger, with faint hum, dense snowflakes kept falling from his side, the rooftop cold air was strong.

  Peng Hua mysteriously appeared beside the bearded captain, smiling and saying, "I like this kind of communication conference... Younger brother, let me be your deputy to attend the conference!"

  Gu Xiechen and Captain Big Beard exchanged a glance, both nodded in agreement.

  Peng Hua tilted his head, looking a bit embarrassed, and said, "Younger brother, it's not very fraternal for one person to enjoy all the benefits. Can't you set up several deputy officers?" Lan Da Hu Zi's mouth slowly opened, and he thought of some extremely wonderful things. It seemed as if there were countless flowers blooming in front of him, with numerous beautiful women dancing naked among the flowers.

  Gu Xie dust smiled and held onto Yu Hua's hand, saying "Of course it can be done! The position of Deputy Minister of the Combat Department in the Hadley Defense Company has no limits!"

  Peng Hua muttered to himself, tapping his fingers on the board as he calculated for a while before nodding and saying, "Alright, let's start with two hundred official positions first. The Nine Nether Dao has nine great Dao masters, each with twenty or so fellow disciples. My master uncle alone has nearly two hundred. Each of these master uncles has taken in dozens to hundreds of disciples, all good-natured and friendly towards one another."

  "Hmm, mobilizing too many people would be too showy, I'll just bring over 200 of the strongest junior brothers for now!" "Great!" The Big Beard Captain grabbed Peng Hua's hand, "Then, my comprehensive department's deputy officer will not have a limited quota!" Peng Hua blinked his eyes and said with a worried expression, "In that case, I can only bring over a few of Niu Bi Zi's junior brothers. As cultivators, they value cultivating their hearts and minds, avoiding trouble, but... there are always a few good brothers who uphold justice!"

  The weirdo laughed a few times, and Peng Hua said with a sinister tone, "When the time comes, we'll dress those little cow noses in suits and leather shoes. If someone beats them to death or cripples a few of them, heh heh... it's gonna be fun!"

  Gu Xie dust, Da Hu Zi team leader, Peng Hua's face was filled with an extremely evil smile, the three people's heads gathered together "chattering and whispering, discussing something."

  The dark clouds in the sky are getting denser and a storm is approaching.
