Chapter 1509: Chapter 1524: Close Quarters Combat

Lin Mu slipped out of the encirclement, then took out a cigarette, lit it, and started smoking. In the time it took to smoke a cigarette, Jiao Yunda’s men were almost completely consumed, but not quite defeated.

After finishing the cigarette, Lin Mu stubbed it out, then pounced forward, directly reaching out to grab Tom’s arm. A skilled hold, this was child’s play for Lin Mu.

Lin Mu appeared by Tom’s side out of nowhere, while poor Tom, unaware of the impending danger, kept shouting, "Quick, charge! Take them out!"

"Heh, idiot, stop yelling. Worry about your own life first!" Lin Mu grinned.

Hearing this, Tom turned around in surprise, and upon seeing Lin Mu, was shocked, "You..."

"Heh, I called you an idiot, and you’re still not convinced? I can kill you anytime now, so you’d better tell your men to stop right away!" Lin Mu flashed a sinister smile.

"You damn..."

Tom still wanted to resist, but Lin Mu’s hand gripped his arms like a steel clamp, twisting them behind his back. His other hand pressed hard against Tom’s neck, and with a bit of force, Tom couldn’t breathe!

"What? Still not convinced, idiot? Resist again, and I’ll snap your neck like that. I don’t want to waste more time, tell your men to stop now, I won’t give you a second chance. Believe me, one more move and your neck will be separated from your body!" Lin Mu said coldly.

Facing such a brutal situation, Tom’s aggressive aura vanished instantly, even turning negative. For the first time in his life, he felt death so close, and Lin Mu seemed like a grim reaper, his iron grip leaving Tom helpless, plunging him into despair.

"You all, stop..." Tom yelled to his men.

With this shout, the gun-wielding black men stopped and turned their attention to Tom and Lin Mu.

Jiao Yunda also walked over, smiling broadly, "Boss Lin, your skills are exceptional! Thank you, thank you!"

"Heh, Young Master Jiao, you’re too kind." Lin Mu chuckled.

But soon, the group of black men quickly raised their guns towards Lin Mu.

"Huaxia person, let me go, or you’ll be riddled with bullets." Tom said.

"Heh, do you know what I hate the most in life? Two things: being threatened and having a gun pointed at me. Now you’re threatening me and pointing guns at me with these black bastards, so there’s only one end for you all — death!"

Lin Mu shouted coldly, then increased his grip. With a satisfying crunch, Tom’s neck was snapped by Lin Mu! Instantly, Tom’s head fell lifelessly, slumping on the ground like a dead dog.

Jiao Yunda was quick to seize the opportunity, immediately ordering his men to open fire! The black men were focused on Lin Mu, oblivious to the people behind them.

Bam bam... Jiao’s men fired continuously, the close-range slaughter was exhilarating, and in a moment, the black men dropped to the ground like hay.

Once the black men were crushed, their morale plummeted, and their numbers halved, the rest barely held their ground against Jiao’s gunmen, retreating as they fought. After a chaotic battle, Jiao’s men annihilated the black men, leaving no survivors.

The battle soon ended, Jiao Yunda lit a cigarette and handed one to Lin Mu, "Boss Lin, thank you."

"Young Master Jiao, you’re too polite, we’re all in the same boat, it’s what we should do." Lin Mu laughed.

"If it weren’t for you, my people might have been done for." Jiao Yunda said.

"These black men are tough characters too, looks like Stern anticipated this, that’s why he didn’t come, using us as pawns." Lin Mu said.

"I won’t let this slide; I swear I’ll settle today’s score with Stern, I won’t let my men die in vain." Jiao Yunda said.

"Let’s go back and discuss, by the way, when’s our transaction?" Lin Mu asked.

"Let’s check the goods tonight. It was originally planned for tomorrow, but I want to catch him off guard, we’ll act tonight." Jiao Yunda said.

"Alright, let’s go." Lin Mu said.

Soon, the group got into the car and returned to Stern’s estate. The cunning Stern had been waiting inside the manor for a while. As the car stopped, Jiao Yunda quickly got out.

Stern took a glance at Jiao Yunda, then approached, "Mr. Jiao, you weren’t hurt, were you?"

"Not too bad, lost a few brothers." Jiao Yunda nodded.

"My apologies, Young Master Jiao. I’ll compensate you for your losses. Now, follow me to the warehouse to see the gold, so you can have peace of mind." Stern said.

"Heh, thank you for your understanding, Mr. Stern!" Jiao Yunda said.

"Please, Mr. Jiao, my friend!" Stern called out, then headed to another part of the estate.

The group followed the path through the estate, soon arriving at a warehouse. Several patrolling security guards were there, and Lin Mu used his Seventh Sense to scan the area, discovering many armed guards hidden in the shadows. Lin Mu carefully observed, having his own plans.

Currently, he and Jiao Yunda were at least working together, both wanting to take the gold. But Jiao Yunda always thought Lin Mu was being used by him, while Lin Mu had long considered Jiao Yunda a pawn.

Everyone had their own ulterior motives! The two seemed united but were actually divided. It was not time to fall out yet, so they kept their plans to themselves.

Stern stepped forward, and two security guards approached.

"Open the door!" Stern commanded.

The two guards nodded and together pushed open the large iron door, leading the group into the warehouse.

Though it was called a warehouse, it was on a completely different level compared to an ordinary warehouse!

As the Wolf Fang Special Forces King, Lin Mu was highly knowledgeable about the construction of heavy military facilities. This warehouse, Lin Mu could tell at a glance, couldn’t be demolished by heavy bombs.

As they moved along, Lin Mu continued to observe the warehouse setup. To successfully seize the gold, one must know the enemy well; the more he understood Stern’s security system, the more confident he would be when attacking or fleeing.

Soon, Stern led Lin Mu and Jiao Yunda to the gold vault, but as soon as they entered, Lin Mu was stunned.

Lin Mu had seen a lot, but this was the first time he had seen so much gold in his life, gold bars shining brightly, illuminating the entire room with golden light!
