Chapter 624: An Attack!

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

The lookout point wasn’t very high, the scenery wasn’t the most beautiful and the view wasn’t the best. However, for the princess’ protection, Mu Youyun in the end chose a lower storey building to make it more convenient for him and the other 4 battle teams to hide around the location. The natural beauty of nature was indeed necessary to watch, but safety was also a factor that needed to be taken into consideration.

Qi Long and the others were like tourists, walking around here and there as if they didn’t know where they were going.

When they arrived to the location Little Four had chosen for them, Ling Lan discovered that it was actually a half-abandoned factory. The new factory was moved to another location. The old location became a temporary warehouse and only had an old security guard at the front…

Ling Lan observed it for a while. The buildings around here were old and short. This location was where a city was located a few centuries ago. There weren’t many people living in the area and it can even be said that it was somewhat desolate. It wasn’t even comparable to the sight they encountered on the way to this location where there were skyscrapers in the new city. That location was full of life with roads that were filled with people.

This old area was about to be demolished and rebuilt. Many inhabitants had already moved into the new city. The ones who remained were seniors who couldn’t leave their homes in such a short period of time. This was one of the reasons why the old area seemed like a desolate wasteland.

However, the lack of people had its advantages. If there were actually people preparing to attack the princess, they wouldn’t have crowds of people to hide in. If these people made a move, they would be immediately be discovered.

After confirming that this half-abandoned factory didn’t have any surveillance cameras, Ling Lan led her teammates past the sight of the old guard and darted into the factory. Afterwards, they chose the tallest office building within the factory and climbed up to the roof.

There was a terrace on the roof. They then opened up their backpacks to take out some pipe-like materials. After some clanking and clunking sounds, the six of them were finished assembling their own firearms.

Ling Lan put together a long range sniper rifle with a range of 1500 meters.

“Boss, do you think that those people will make a move this time?” Li Yingjie asked as he finished assembling his weapon.

Ling Lan lifted her sniper rifle and pointed it towards a far distance away to finalize calibrations. Hearing Li Yingjie’s question, she replied, “They will. This a good chance for those who want to assassinate the princess. They will definitely not miss this chance.”

“Will they be coming to our side?” Li Yingjie asked again.

“Who knows. They could come from any four of the directions. We just need to be responsible for our side.” After calibrating her weapon, the sniper rifle had reached the peak of its performance. Ling Lan put the sniper rifle on the side.

Lin Zhong-qing, who had also finished assembling his weapon, saw Ling Lan’s action and immediately took out a high magnification scope from his backpack and gave it to Ling Lan. Ling Lan used it to look at the surrounding areas and tossed it back to Lin Zhong-qing.

In reality, with Little Four surveying the area, Ling Lan didn’t need a scope. The entire area of the old city was within her mindspace.

Not long after, the princess and her group had arrived to the lookout point they had chosen. Ling Lan also saw that the other three battle teams had also reached the other three locations.
