Chapter 1702: Chapter 1701: War Breaks Out!
Ling Feng’s heart sank, and he quickly asked, "What happened?"
"One of our team mbers is missing!" Chu Xing said.
"How could this happen?"
Ling Feng got anxious upon hearing this. These people were brought to Arica by him, and if sothing happened to one, he would feel he couldn’t face their families.
"Everyone was acting collectively originally, but because of the competition these days, night activities were canceled, and everyone was resting in their rooms."
Chu Xing paused, then continued, "But just now, a mber realized they hadn’t bought so items and felt that the competition might end tomorrow and then we’d head back to the country, so they went downstairs alone to buy them and never ca back, and we can’t reach them!"
"What about the others? Were they out looking or staying in the rooms?" Ling Feng hurriedly asked.
Chu Xing: "I had them form a seven-person team and go out to search!"
"Report any situation at any ti!"
Ling Feng said and imdiately expanded his Divine Sense.
The hotel is surrounded by comrcial areas, and it’s bustling everywhere with people.
Scanning with Divine Sense also takes ti. Seeing the situation, Ling Feng knew this tactic wouldn’t be very effective.
With no other option, he told the others, "I’ll go out for a while; we must find the person tonight!"
"Maybe they’ve run into so trouble, should we call the police?" Lina said.
Ling Feng looked at her and shook his head, "At a ti like this, sothing unusual happened; it possibly targets us!"
After speaking, he pondered for a mont and turned to Catherine, "We should notify the police. Tell them, if anything happens to my people here, I’m going to turn this whole city upside down!"
Catherine: "..."
She knew Ling Feng was anxious, so she didn’t argue, just reminded him not to worry as she watched him leave.
Ling Feng went downstairs and started walking aimlessly in the street, feeling uneasy.
His blind search wasn’t likely to yield any results, so after an hour, Ling Feng took out his phone and called Chu Xing, "How are things now?"
"No trace of the person!"
Chu Xing’s tone was also urgent, "Boss, that person must be in trouble. What do you think is the reason?"
"That’s what you need to figure out!"
Ling Feng took a deep breath. "With one person missing, can tomorrow’s competition proceed as usual?"
"There’ll definitely be impact, but it won’t be enough to cause us to lose the competition." Chu Xing said.
"If that’s the case, have the seven-person team return to the hotel imdiately and stay put, don’t go out!"
Ling Feng pondered, fearing sothing might happen to the others too!
Chu Xing instantly understood his intentions and nodded, "Alright, I’ll notify them now."
"I’ll be back soon, we’ll discuss more when I return!"
Ling Feng hung up the phone and turned back toward the hotel.
His thoughts were in disarray now; winning or losing wasn’t the key—it’s about people.
The brothers he led out here must all return—not a single one less!
As he walked back, Ling Feng thought darkly—with whoever did this, as long as he found them, they’d be finished!
The person he suspected most at the mont was Smack!
But, lacking evidence, it wasn’t wise to directly cause trouble.
If the person was fine, that was good. However, if it was confird sothing big happened—like severe injury or death—Ling Feng wouldn’t bother with evidence, he’d start a massacre!
After all, this is Arica, and causing a huge uproar wasn’t sothing he feared!
With steely anger, Ling Feng quickly returned to the hotel.
By now, a seven-mber team had arrived and was reporting to Chu Xing in his room.
Ling Feng entered and asked, "Are the other seven back yet?"
"On their way, they should arrive soon." Chu Xing said.
After sitting for ten minutes, a commotion was heard outside, followed by several people supporting each other as they entered.
Seeing their condition, Ling Feng’s heart sank even more!
At least three people were injured, being helped back inside.
Ling Feng quickly checked them and found only superficial injuries, letting him breathe a sigh of relief.
He then hurriedly asked, "What happened? Did you get attacked?"
"Yes, boss, in the alley behind the hotel, a few people suddenly ambushed us!" one young man said.
Ling Feng squinted and used Divine Sense to scan, only to see the chaotic scene, with no trace of the attackers left.
So he imdiately asked, "Who were they?"
"Not sure, but they were ruthless, skilled, and clearly intended to kill us!" the young man said.
"Well, it seems soone really doesn’t want us to win the championship!"
Ling Feng squinted and clenched his fist.
But now wasn’t the ti for anger; seeing the injuries, he quickly took out dicinal Pills for the three.
Their physiques were far superior to ordinary people, and these injuries weren’t much—they’d recover fully by daybreak, and it wouldn’t affect the competition.
But the situation was evident; the attackers intended to kill, and eliminating a few team mbers would stop Huaxia’s team from winning the championship.
"Nobody panic; now’s the ti to remain calm!"
Ling Feng said, then looked at Chu Xing, "Let everyone rest first, I’m going next door!"
"Alright!"
Chu Xing noticed the murderous look in Ling Feng’s eyes, nodded, and didn’t say more.
Then Fu Hao stood up and said, "Ling Feng, I want to take a stroll."
"Fu, you might struggle with communication if you go out; better to stay in the hotel!" Ling Feng hesitated, then said.
"It’s fine!"
Fu Hao shook his head, "I won’t talk to anyone outside."
"That’s good, I trust Fu’s abilities—anyone ignorant enough to try sothing against you is asking for trouble!" Ling Feng nodded and said.
"Hmm!"
Fu Hao nodded and left the room.
Ling Feng went next door and explained the incident to everyone.
After hearing it, Catherine was the first to lose her composure, standing up and saying, "Insane, absolutely insane!"
"Bold, cowardly actions; it resembles Smack’s handiwork!" Ling Feng said.
"It shouldn’t be him!"
Catherine shook her head, "Smack isn’t that foolish, he knows you’d suspect him first!"
"You’re right, then who could it be? The Roth Family?" Ling Feng asked.
"That’s quite possible!"
Catherine pondered, then said, "But I think if Jack Ross were foolish, he indeed has a reason to do this."
"He’s arrogant, yet not that stupid!"
Ling Feng squinted and said, "No matter what, soone has declared war on , and sorry—I must retaliate!"
