Chapter 21: The No. 1 Psychiatric Hospital in Magic Metropolis

 

Dart didn't seem surprised at all.

"Where there are high rewards, there must be brave men. With high income, they will naturally do their best for their employer!"

"Have all the bullets been switched to tranquilizer darts?"

Glimmer seemed somewhat puzzled.

"Captain! Using tranquilizer darts greatly increases our risk! Why not use conventional ammunition?"

Dart sighed.

"These bodyguards are just ordinary people kept in the dark!"

"We have specially made bulletproof vests. Ordinary bullets can hardly harm us!"

"Tranquilizer darts are enough!"

Slick spoke up at this point.

"They are not ordinary people at all! They are the noble high-income group!"

"Damn it! Their salaries are higher than mine!"

"Captain! Maybe we should join them! No! I am getting jealous!"

No one responded to Slick's words, everyone knew he was joking.

They were clearly already used to it.

Dart automatically filtered out Slick's words.

"Alright! Synchronize the time, check your equipment. We will assault them from directly below in ten minutes!"

As soon as he said this, all six squad members synchronized their special operation watches.

Ten minutes later.

Boom!

The manhole cover was blown off.

Following this, several smoke grenades were thrown out from the manhole.

Instantly, alarm bells rang throughout the manor.

The smoke was extremely visible under the moonlight.

More than half of the bodyguards rushed toward the source of the smoke.

The members of the City Fire Squad had already reached the ground under the cover of the smoke.

They were met with a hail of pistol bullets.

For a moment, the entire manor was filled with the sound of gunfire.

Slick flicked his wrist, and in an instant, a large riot shield appeared on his arm.

He held the riot shield at the forefront.

The squad members followed behind him with practiced coordination.

Bullets struck the riot shield, sending sparks flying.

Slick's arm went numb from the impact.

"Too many! Too many! I can't take it anymore!"

Dart, following behind him, nearly felt like shooting him in the back of the head.

"After we get back, I will request the Doctor to have the Prison Doctor perform a vocal cord removal surgery on you!"

Hearing this, Slick shuddered and immediately said,

"Captain, I was just worried you were too tense and wanted to lighten the mood!"

Just then, Little Rain's voice came through the earpiece.

"Captain! A large number of targets are heading in your direction. Move quickly!"

Hearing this, the team immediately began to relocate.

At this moment, the bodyguards who had rushed over hadn't arrived yet.

Dart knew they would soon be discovered.

Through their special ops goggles, the smoke didn't hinder them much.

He glanced around and quickly made a decision.

"According to the intel, all windows on the fourth and fifth floors are sealed. We will climb the exterior wall to go to the third floor!"

He added,

"Be quick!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he led the charge to the wall.

At the same time, sharp spikes extended from his gloves, it was extremely sharp, just like a spider's leg.

This allowed his palms to adhere firmly to the wall.

Using these means, they quickly scaled the wall, reaching the third floor in just a few seconds.

At that moment, a message reached all the bodyguards in the manor.

"The targets have entered the villa. Those who are outside, guard the exits!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Intense gunfire erupted from inside the villa.

Clearly, a firefight had already broken out inside.

"Captain! The villa's exits have been sealed!"

Little Rain's voice sounded in the earpiece.

Just then, Glimmer's furious voice came through the earpiece.

"Damn it! Didn't they say they had no heavy firearms? How did they even bring out an antique like the Maxim gun that should be buried in the ground?"

Slick said somewhat awkwardly,

"Ahem, according to the intel, the villa's owner is also an antique collector!"

"It's perfectly reasonable for an antique collector to own a nearly ancient-era antique Maxim heavy machine gun!"

Hearing this, Glimmer instantly fell silent.

Dart's low voice came through.

"There's a problem with the intel. Retreat immediately!"

Soon, a squad member blew open the wall behind them.

The team jumped out through the hole in an orderly manner.

The muzzle of the Maxim heavy machine gun spat a half-meter-long tongue of flames.

Slick, at the forefront, held up the riot shield, blocking the incoming bullets.

For a moment, his arm lost all sensation.

The riot shield was on the verge of shattering under the barrage.

After everyone had retreated, Slick was the last to jump out of the hole, still holding the shield.

At that very moment, the riot shield, capable of withstanding explosives, shattered completely.

Fortunately, Slick retreated in time, otherwise, he would have been riddled with bullets instantly.

But his arm that held the shield was already a mangled mess of flesh and blood.

As soon as he landed, Glimmer hoisted him over his shoulder and fled frantically.

Slick's faint voice came through the earpiece.

"Damn! That was too intense!"

Hearing his voice, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

If he could talk, he was still alive.

At the same time, their whereabouts were discovered by the bodyguards.

Dart stepped up, taking the forefront.

A riot shield appeared in his hand.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Countless bullets struck the riot shield, sending sparks flying.

The sound of footsteps around them grew increasingly numerous.

The squad members retreated quickly.

Using satellite imagery, Little Rain charted a retreat route for everyone.

It wasn't until all squad members had left the manor that the bodyguards inside ceased their pursuit.

On a remote road, the City Fire Squad looked somewhat disheveled under the moonlight.

A white ambulance pulled up in front of them.

Printed on its body were the words: "The No. 1 Psychiatric Hospital in Magic Metropolis."

The door opened and Little Rain, sitting in the driver's seat, waved at them.

"Get in quickly!"

The ambulance drove off with its siren wailing.

Inside the vehicle, Little Rain swapped places with Dart, who took over driving.

Little Rain began administering emergency treatment to Slick's wounds.

"This might hurt a bit! Bear with it!" Little Rain said softly.

She then rolled up Slick's sleeve, revealing his arm, which was bleeding profusely.

The arm was bruised black and blue from the impact.

Seeing this, Little Rain breathed a sigh of relief.

She then checked Slick's chest and back.

Several bullets were lodged in the bulletproof vest on his back.

Thanks to the Warden' specially made bulletproof vest, the bullets had been stopped.

However, Slick was clearly not in great shape.

There was a trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth, indicating he had suffered considerable internal injuries.

Little Rain administered some emergency treatment.

At this point, Dart, who was driving, said in a low voice,

"The intel was faulty. There were heavy firearms defending the villa. It's impossible to break through with human force alone!"

"We were the only squad that managed to enter the villa!"

As he said this, Dart's tone softened slightly.

Amid the group's silence, the ambulance arrived at a hospital located in the suburbs of the metropolis.
