The drone successfully rose into the sky. The body itself was invisible, so not even Zhao Yu could see it. As the drone flew higher, a new control panel appeared on Zhao Yu’s system, and he could clearly see the video the drone captured.
Good, good… this is awesome! Zhao Yu was controlling the drone and looking attentively for his target.
With his newly widened field of vision, Zhao Yu quickly saw on his screen an overview of the area and the many well-connected paths behind the Phoenix Building. Other than the small group of people gathered outside the palace, there was no one.
Zhao Yu estimated that based on the direction and distance the person with the gun was most likely within this group.
They were probably tourists. Amongst them was a tour guide, holding a flag standing right at the front, guiding them. Their footsteps were hurried. They were probably looking for the exit since they had received a notice to evacuate.


Ah! So sly! Zhao Yu understood now. The enemy had used the smoke bombs as a distraction so they could pretend to be tourists and escape amidst the chaos.
Hmph! In your dreams, little boy. No matter who you are, you have met the great Zhao Yu, and that’s your own bad luck! Zhao Yu picked up his pace and ran towards the group of people.
Because of the drone, Zhao Yu naturally was able to take shortcuts, and it wasn’t long before he ran into an empty field in front of the palace.
Now that he was right in front of the crowd, he was able to see the group of people walking towards him as well as the tanned tour guide standing at the front of the group. He was explaining the situation to the tourists.

Here! We are closest to the east gate, so we should exit from there!
The tour guide’s words were a little unusual because he was unable to say some words and his pronunciation was off. Hearing the voice rushing them, he was probably anxious to get everyone out safely.

Guide, is this place on fire?
A fat lady asked loudly.
Look at all the smoke! Are we in danger?


No, we’re not, we’re not…
While the tour guide was explaining, Zhao Yu had already run up to them and brushed shoulders with them. Zhao Yu was scrutinizing the many tourists, while the detector in his head was trying to find the location of the pistol.
Eh, it’s here! Zhao Yu quickly found the location of the pistol. It was still moving away from him. Thanks to the detector, Zhao Yu realized that the person holding the pistol was indeed with the group of tourists, except he was headed west.
He lifted his head to take a closer look and saw a man of a middle-sized build appear at the side of the palace furthest away from him. The man had kept his body close to the huge stone pillars and was making his way back toward the palace.
Although Zhao Yu did not see the person clearly, based on the person’s profile and the way he walked, Zhao Yu felt goosebumps on his body and his heart began to beat rapidly.


His silhouette was familiar! Could this be the masked man? Zhao Yu laughed manically in his heart. As they said, enemies were bound to meet!
Ha! Little boy, you probably didn’t think that I would find you so quickly, right?
Thinking about this, Zhao Yu raised his gun and aimed at the man, intending to take him by surprise. He wanted to shoot the man first and consider the consequences later!
Although it may not be the same masked man, it was undeniable that he had a gun and was walking suspiciously. Thus, Zhao Yu had already made his decision and was prepared to make the first move in order to gain an advantage.
But just as he was about to take a shot, his heart trembled.
Wait, no! He suddenly recalled something and his face turned pale. This was bad! When Zhao Yu had brushed shoulders with the tour guide, he noticed that the tour guide had a Bluetooth earpiece in his ears.
Although he had thought the earpiece looked a little familiar, because all his attention was on the masked man, he had not given it a second thought. But now that he was about to take a shot, he suddenly realized the Bluetooth earpiece looked exactly the same as the criminals back in the fortress! Back then, Zhao Yu had taken off one of the criminal’s earpieces, so it had left quite a deep impression on him.
The tour guide with the tanned skin and subpar Chinese… sht!
It was too late. When Zhao Yu realized this, he had already raised his gun and aimed at the target. The tour guide, who was standing to the side, suddenly got up and threw his body at Zhao Yu, causing Zhao Yu to fall to the ground.
Zhao Yu rolled on the ground a few times due to the impact and turned around, wanting to use the gun to shoot the fake tour guide. But the tour guide was an expert fighter and before Zhao Yu could even fully turn, he had already kicked Zhao Yu and put a stop to his plans.


Bang! The gun fired, but the bullet launched into the air and hit nothing. The fake tour guide kicked the gun away. All the tourists and guests didn’t know what was going on and the moment they heard the gunfire they began running in all directions, scared out of their minds.
The fake tour guide did not have the most agile of bodies, but he had a lot of strength. He punched Zhao Yu a couple of times. Zhao Yu almost couldn’t breathe.
If Zhao Yu had not suffered a bad injury earlier, he might have felt up to fighting this man, but Zhao Yu’s old injuries had yet to heal and he could not use that much strength.
What was more life-threatening was that in the distance, the masked man who had seen what happened had already taken his gun out and was walking in their direction. If he was still stuck in this struggle when the man reached them, Zhao Yu would not meet a good ending!
Zhao Yu had no intention of continuing the brawl and hurriedly scrambled to get the gun, but the fake tour guide was already one step ahead of him. He lunged forward and waved his arms in the air, successfully grabbing Zhao Yu by the waist.
The two of them fell to the floor with a thud. Just hearing the sound was enough to know how painful it was.
The masked man in the distance had taken aim at Zhao Yu and was about to shoot. At that moment, Zhao Yu positioned his palm on the tour guide’s face and flipped his arm outwards, revealing a taser under his sleeves!
Bzztttt!! The taser released a flicker of blue light and hit the tour guide’s face. The fake tour guide’s body trembled for a while and he had fainted in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Yu had already prepared the taser before he left, taking a page out of Jiang Ke and Cheng Lingfei’s book. Logically, since he and the tour guide were touching bodies, if the fake tour guide was electrocuted then Zhao Yu should have been as well. But, Zhao Yu had the lighting insulator equipped and once it was activated, the electricity was drawn away and he wasn’t affected at all.
What? At that moment, the masked man in the distance looked shocked, as he had not expected such a sudden change in the situation. He was completely perturbed.


Zhao Yu made use of the man’s shock and snatched for his own gun, turning around and firing.
Bang, bang! The gun sounded and the masked man came to his senses, immediately running behind a stone pillar and shooting at Zhao Yu from the other side. The opponent’s gun had a silencer attached, but the impact of the bullet was massive.
Zhao Yu laid low and rolled across the floor, hiding behind the barriers of the palace. But as he was hiding, he scolded himself.
Are you stupid? Earlier during the brawl with the fake tour guide, he was worried that the masked man might sneak up and attack him, so he had already activated the Invisible Bulletproof Vest.
Since he had that equipped as protection, why did he still hide? Thinking about it, Zhao Yu wanted to run towards the bullets. Plus, there was nobody around to see. If he really wanted to catch the masked man, he might have to resort to such methods!
Just as Zhao Yu was about to move, the masked man made a shocking move. He actually aimed the gun towards the fake tour guide who was lying on the floor.
What?! Zhao Yu cursed under his breath and opened fire to interrupt the man, but everything had happened so suddenly that it was already too late. With the sound of two shots, the tour guide’s head had two new holes in it and a sea of red formed…
