166: Chapter 166: Buying Skill Equipnt!
Dude, I Can’t Stay Calm!
“Stop right there!!”
Tang Xiao rushed to the corridor, shouting at the top of her voice.
Wu Jie stopped and turned around, his face resolute:
“You go back to sleep and double-lock the door.
Whatever happens tonight has nothing to do with you!”
“Who says it has nothing to do with ?
You’re in trouble with the ng Family because you stood up for my Tang Family!”
As Tang Xiao spoke, she kept backing away.
Standing at the door of Mr.
and Mrs.
Wu Jianguo’s room, Tang Xiao threatened:
“Go on, then!
If you dare leave, I’ll knock on the door and tell them you’ve gone out in the middle of the night to et your little mistress and don’t want anymore!
Let’s see how they deal with you!”
“Hey, I say, Tang Xiao, you…
how can you be so shaless?”
“Are you still the domineering CEO, the powerful War King I know?
How co you’ve suddenly beco like a female thug?”
Wu Jie hurried back with quick steps and dragged Tang Xiao into the room.
“I haven’t beco a thug; I just don’t want to see you walk to your death for nothing!”
“Hmph!
The person who can kill hasn’t been born yet!” Wu Jie pulled Tang Xiao back to the bed.
“Lie down quickly, don’t let your old injuries flare up and suddenly kick the bucket!”
“You’re the one who’s about to kick the bucket!” Tang Xiao said, sitting up against the headboard, her face serious.
“I admit your kung fu isn’t bad, and you can pull off so tricks, but can you compete with a gun?”
“Do you believe that the mont you step into the elevator, you’ll imdiately alert the assassin organization?
Maybe you won’t even make it to the hospital before they take you out halfway.
After all, causing a car accident is the easiest way to cover up a murder!”
Just as Wu Jie was about to retort, Tang Xiao attacked again:
“Don’t give any talk about luck or make big claims.
Bullets don’t have eyes!”
“Your parents are still staying next door.
If you get shot as soon as you step out of the hotel, how am I supposed to explain it to them?”
Wu Jie fell silent.
He pulled over a chair, sat down, and started smoking.
This was the first ti he was encountering sothing like this, and he realized he had underestimated it.
Although powerful with the system attached, the enemy situation was still unclear!
Who the hell knows how many assassins are lurking in this hotel?
Assassins can disguise themselves as waiters, and naturally, they can also pose as security guards, guests, passersby…
In short, they are everywhere, and there’s no telling where they might strike from!
Seeing Wu Jie silent and brooding, Tang Xiao kindly advised:
“It’s normal for you to be angry and upset if you’ve never experienced this before, but I have, so you need to trust !”
“The bigger the crisis, the more you need to stay calm!
There’s a saying in the special forces that preserving oneself is the key to eliminating the enemy.”
“If you can’t even protect yourself, how are you supposed to take down the enemy?”
“Special operations emphasize asymtrical warfare: if an ambush or assassination is possible, there’s no need for an open fight; if a precise sniper shot will do, there’s no need for close-quarter combat!”
“Those assassins are even more versed in this approach, and they’re even more eager to kill than you are because they only get the final paynt after they’ve killed you!”
“But they are more patient than you.
If you rush out now, that’s truly falling into their trap and giving them an easy victory.”
Wu Jie frowned and said with a smile, “I used to think you were aloof and not very talkative.
How co you’ve suddenly beco so chatty?”
“If you were calm enough, would I even need to waste my breath?”
Tang Xiao pointed to the sofa: “Go back to sleep.
A gentleman takes his revenge ten years later; you won’t miss your chance for revenge just by waiting one more night!”
“I’m no gentleman; I’d rather be the villain!”
Snuffing out the cigarette butt, Wu Jie took a shower to cool off and then lay down on the sofa to sleep.
But tossing and turning, he still couldn’t fall asleep.
Who the hell could sleep peacefully after being shot at and stabbed?
If he couldn’t go out, he would think about how to take revenge.
The ancients said, “To do a good job, an artisan needs the best tools.”
Thanks to the confrontation with the Xu Family during the day, he’d earned quite a few energy points.
With over three million points, was he worried he wouldn’t be able to buy good stuff?
Entering the system’s shop, Wu Jie first looked at skills, then at goods.
There was no shortage of things to buy: he could buy shooting skills as well as weapon and ammunition gift packs.
Even more brutal heavy firepower was available, but obviously there was no need to buy them because there was no way to hide such things!
Suddenly!
Wu Jie discovered an impressive skill.
World-class dart throwing skill, guaranteed to hit the target within thirty ters every ti.
The system also notified him that, given the host was in mortal danger, skill purchases were discounted by thirty percent, and he would receive two sets of Composite Material Darts as a bonus.
The darts were precise, fast, and penetrated deeply; they could also be dipped in poison to beco toxic.
Most importantly, they could be carried on one’s person, unlike tal products that are difficult to get through security checks.
“Holy shit!
This is aweso!”
Wu Jie didn’t buy it right away but went to look at other advanced skills.
Skills like those of a Combat Grandmaster were still ‘out of reach’ even after the discount.
Forget it, the discounted dart throwing skill was enough for self-protection.
Wu Jie promptly made the purchase, designating one set of darts for his backpack and taking the other set in hand.
A surge of warmth shot through his hands, as if they had been tempered, making them stronger and more powerful.
After all, how can one throw darts if their hands lack strength?
The darts he received ca in a small box.
There were twelve in a set, each looking like a miniature missile.
Sharp tips, streamlined bodies, and fins.
Designed with a hollow center to dip into poison before throwing.
petite and delicately made, they felt great in hand and were slightly heavy.
He pulled out the box, and on the inside was an adhesive strip that could be attached to the body or clothing.
The strip featured a series of indents aligned side by side, specifically for securing the darts, making them easy to grab.
However, the system recomnded wrapping it around the inside of the sleeves.
That way, it wouldn’t affect movent and would be very concealed.
In an ergency, he just needed to cross his hands and reach into his sleeves to quickly grab the darts and throw them with both hands.
“Such detailed instructions and such exquisite manufacturing!”
“Truly a divine tool for ho travel, self-defense, and killing!”
Wu Jie went to the restroom to put on a gray shirt, following the system’s instructions carefully.
After trying several tis to draw the darts, they really were handy.
But as for throwing them…better not!
What if the noise was too loud and woke Tang Xiao?
Wu Jie quietly opened the door and had barely taken two steps when Tang Xiao suddenly asked:
“What took you so long in there?”
“Can’t a brother play gas on the toilet for a while?”
“Playing gas but you need to wear a shirt?
Didn’t you say you’re used to sleeping in just your underwear?”
Wu Jie froze for a mont, “Before starting, isn’t it okay to video chat with a female friend for a few seconds?
But you, weren’t you the cool one?
How co you can’t sleep?”
“I woke up because of nstrual pain!”
“Do you want a few needles then?
It stops the pain and feels comfortable; surely you haven’t forgotten that sensation, have you?” Wu Jie asked teasingly.
“No need!”
Tang Xiao’s tone was resolute: “It’s not as painful as before, I can bear it!
Go to sleep quickly, don’t mind !”
Wu Jie chuckled and lay back down on the sofa.
“If you need anything, just call !
Taking care of the pain is important, don’t be polite with , and definitely don’t act shy!”
However, Tang Xiao didn’t make a sound.
With the skill and darts secured, Wu Jie finally managed to fall asleep peacefully.
Dawn.
When Wu Jie woke up, Tang Xiao had already packed up.
The family went downstairs for breakfast and then headed to the airport; Wu Jie and Tang Xiao could clearly feel they were being followed.
But the weird thing was…
After sending their parents off on the plane, Wu Jie and two others were waiting for their flight to Tianyuan when the female assassin unexpectedly showed up…
