Absolute Death Game

Situ Yu stood inside the elevator, her mind in turmoil. Even now, she found the events that had just transpired somewhat unbelievable, although they had occurred right before her eyes. Such strange and fantastic occurrences seemed far too mythical for someone living in modern society.

Yet, as a police officer, her professional instincts kept telling her that everything that had just happened was real. She had just taken part in a massive battle that one would only expect to see in movies.

With a ding, the elevator finally reached the first floor. She quickly gathered her Spirit, not knowing when she had gripped her pistol tightly. The moment the door opened, she saw dozens of dark gun barrels aimed at her, startling her so much she almost raised her weapon.

Fortunately, she still had some sense of reason and quickly spread her hands to show she was no threat.

(These people don't seem to be police officers,) she thought to herself in a flash, and her weapon was already being taken from her hands.

Following the two soldiers wearing black combat suits and masks, she walked out of the building. Outside, police cars and some black personnel transport vehicles had surrounded the area. These vehicles bore a strong military vibe, with a strange logo on their doors—a black dragon coiling around a sword. She was surprised; she had never seen this logo before and didn't know what it meant.

"Thank heavens you're all right. If anything had happened to you, how could I explain it to the old man," Director Zhou's tone sounded more like an elder scolding a younger relative. It wasn't until he had finished speaking that he remembered the pressing matter at hand and immediately put on a stern face, "What on earth have you done, girl?

I told you over and over to let this matter rest, so how did you get yourself into so much trouble again!"

Situ Yu's mouth opened, but she didn't know what to say. Clearly, the situation wasn't as simple as she had previously thought. She seemed to have gotten involved in a very complicated incident and, faced with Director Zhou's questioning, she didn't know what to say.

At that moment, a soldier in a black combat suit came over and said coldly to Director Zhou, "Is this your undercover agent? Since she's come out, you all can leave now."

His words were quite rude, and Director Zhou immediately grew annoyed, "Which unit are you from? According to the rules, this area should be under our jurisdiction!"

He shouted loudly, also exuding an imposing aura, and the police officers who had been standing by promptly gathered around, as if to show their strength.

However, the soldier in black remained calm. He muttered a few words into the intercom on his helmet and then turned to Director Zhou, "If you want to know who we are, come with me." He then walked towards a vehicle.

Director Zhou watched the soldier's retreating figure with a mixture of suspicion and trepidation, but eventually followed, and Situ Yu did as well, driven by her own curiosity about these people's identities.

Behind the command vehicle, several people in combat suits were giving a report to a woman in uniform, who appeared quite young and pretty. The uniform hugged her slender body, making a stark contrast with the robust soldiers surrounding her.

"We've taken strategic positions around the building; all exits are blocked, and we've stationed snipers at the high points. Additionally, considering that there may be heavy combat units among the enemy, a batch of heavy weapons will be arriving shortly," spoke a man who seemed to be a captain, pointing at the map.

The woman nodded without comment, "How many mobile troops can be deployed now?" Discover hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire

"I've assembled four assault teams, ready to receive orders at any time. They're positioned here, here, and here."

The woman nodded, "Good, have them continue to stand by, ready for my commands. As soon as the heavy weapons arrive, distribute them immediately. The enemy we face this time won't be easy to deal with."

Seeing the level of preparedness, Director Zhou's momentum deflated by half, but he still forced himself to ask, "Who are you people? This is my jurisdiction, and it should be the police taking charge."

The woman finally took notice of him and nodded to the captain beside her before turning around.

"I'm Colonel Qin Shimoon, and I'm currently in charge here. As for our identities," she said, pulling out a black-cased ID and handing it over. The same logo of the black dragon coiling around the sword was on it. Director Zhou's color changed when he opened the ID, and before Situ Yu could get a clear look, he was already handing it back in a fluster.

"I will order a retreat immediately," he said with a voice close to reverence.

"That won't be necessary. There are matters for which I still need your police cooperation. Please set up a perimeter around the building; I don't want innocent people harmed during this action, nor do I want it exposed. Officially, this operation will still appear under your responsibility. Understood?"

Director Zhou nodded repeatedly, not voicing any objection, which only deepened Situ Yu's curiosity. It wasn't until they had left the area and returned to the police that she couldn't help asking curiously, "Who exactly are they? Director, why did you agree so readily? That's not like you at all."

Director Zhou's face suddenly turned stern, "From now on, you are not to inquire further about this matter. Little Wang, Little Li, take Officer Situ Yu back to the police station, and she is not to leave there until this situation is over—understood!"
