Chapter 1123: Chapter 1138: Wolf Fang Strikes

"Damn, boss, do we really need to involve the local troops for such a small matter? Can’t the three of us handle it?" Gray Wolf asked.

"It’s not that simple. I went there once before. The factory is halfway up the mountain and heavily guarded. There are hidden sentries everywhere on the way up, and the unique terrain makes it easy to defend and hard to attack. They have military-grade equipment, so it’s difficult to break through with just personal strength," Lin Mu said.

"You mean we have to take out those hidden sentries first?" Golden Wolf chimed in.

Lin Mu nodded, "Exactly. The most threatening are those unexpected sentries. Once we take them out, getting up the mountain will be much easier."

"Oh, that can’t be too hard. I’ll take the lead and guarantee to take them out," Gray Wolf shrugged.

"I’m afraid it’s not that simple. They work closely together, so we need to devise a detailed plan and be extra cautious when we act," Lin Mu instructed.

"Got it, boss. When do we move?" Gray Wolf inquired.

"We’re going to conduct some reconnaissance now and act tonight. We’ll assemble our forces to completely dismantle that drug factory," Lin Mu stated.

"Then what are we waiting for? I’ve been itching to move. The sooner we take out Jinye, the sooner I can find true love, including those two girls, Mei Niang and that Fangzi, both are stunners! Hehe, I’ll take them all," Gray Wolf said with a lewd grin and a shameless expression.

"Damn, you lecherous Gray Wolf." Lin Mu laughed and cursed. This guy couldn’t do anything without involving women, yet when it came to matters concerning women, he always did a spectacular job.

After gathering their things, Lin Mu and the two others headed out towards Chicken Mountain. However, as Lin Mu opened the door, taking his first step out, Man Luo called out from behind.

"Wait a moment."

"Oh, sister, what do you need?" Lin Mu turned and smiled at Man Luo.

Man Luo glared at Lin Mu, "I’m coming too."

"Going where?"

"Don’t play dumb," Man Luo glared at Lin Mu again.

"Sis, we’re going to check out the situation, the key action is tonight. I’ll definitely take you tonight!" Lin Mu said.

Man Luo thought for a moment and then nodded, "Alright then, remember what you said last night. Bring me along for any operation."

Lin Mu nodded, "I got it, sis. I won’t forget you, ever. It’s the first time I’ve met a girl as wild as you!"

"What’s wrong with me?"

"Other girls run away when they see fights, but you seem to enjoy the action. If I were a girl, I wouldn’t be like that, haha."

"Hmph, don’t make me angry. Enough talk, get moving." Man Luo waved her hand.

"Well, I’m off then, muah!" Lin Mu blew a kiss at Man Luo, which was naturally met not with a returned kiss but with a fierce eye roll.

Lin Mu, Golden Wolf, and Gray Wolf all left the room and drove to the base of Chicken Mountain. Having been there once with Mei Niang, Lin Mu was somewhat familiar with the terrain.

The car stopped about five hundred meters from the mountain base. The three sat in the car as Lin Mu pulled out a cigarette and offered one each to Golden Wolf and Gray Wolf before lighting one for himself.

"Boss, how should we move? They’re hidden sentries, so it’s tough to pinpoint their locations," Gray Wolf said, looking ahead.

Lin Mu exhaled a puff of smoke, pondered for a moment, and smiled, "It’s actually simple. Don’t forget what we are. Their hidden sentries are professionally placed, and we are professionals. We can make initial estimates and judgments about their locations, and when we move at night, we can trace them all out."

Gray Wolf nodded with a chuckle, "Boss, that’s a good plan."

"Let’s go, start moving," Lin Mu nodded and said.

The three got out of the car and approached the mountain base, hiding within the underbrush not far away.

"Ahead is the path they specifically built leading up the mountain. The first hidden sentry should be within that nearby forest. I’ll take out the first one; you two find the others based on its position," Lin Mu directed.

"Yes, boss, no problem," Gray Wolf and Golden Wolf nodded in agreement.

"Alright, let’s move, sneak around their side. They’re focused on the road and won’t notice the flank and rear," Lin Mu instructed.

Gray Wolf and Golden Wolf nodded, splitting up to circle around from the side while Lin Mu followed later, stealthily approaching through the dense cover. Because he was closest to the first sentry, he waited for Gray Wolf and Golden Wolf to reach their positions. Only by acting together can they silently eliminate them, as the removal of the first would alert the others, requiring swift elimination of all within seconds.

Lin Mu stealthily climbed up, quickly spotting the hidden sentry amidst the dense foliage. Having honed his skills through years on the mercenary battlefield, Lin Mu possessed a keen eye and his Seventh Sense had evolved to peak proficiency. He could find anyone within five hundred meters of him effortlessly, thus identifying this sentry’s position was child’s play for Lin Mu!

Lin Mu quietly approached, moving gracefully and swiftly, with the sentry completely unaware until Lin Mu drew near. Even then, the sentry failed to notice Lin Mu, oblivious to death’s arrival.

Lin Mu crouched and tapped his shoulder, prompting the sentry to turn abruptly, but it was too late as a sharp knife sliced across his neck.

The next second, a jet of blood surged forth, and the man collapsed on the spot. Meanwhile, elsewhere on the mountain, another man started rising but was immediately tackled by a shadow. Golden Wolf swung his knife, dispatching him instantly.

The other sentry had no chance to react either. Gray Wolf, relying on his veteran experience, pinpointed his rough location. The last sentry didn’t even realize what hit him, a knife striking from behind, granting him the quickest death, never knowing what killed him.

With the hidden sentries swiftly eliminated, Lin Mu whistled, and Golden Wolf and Gray Wolf returned from the flank to the mountain base. The three got back into the car, lighting another cigarette each, as the hunting operation concluded smoothly and silently.
