Law IV

  Li Aozzi was slightly stunned.

  For a moment, Nuo Mi's petite figure overpped with someone he remembered, causing a slight pang in his heart.

  But then, he shook his head.

  We are also huma that sound too naive and foolish?

  To the bureaucrats arepreneurs of the Four Nations, even their own people were just sheep to be sughtered. Who really sidered them human?

  From a pyer's perspective, it didn't matter hoeople from the Four Nations or the outer world died; the whole blue p was doomed to be destroyed. The oernal truth in this world rofit.

  But he was no longer a pyer.

  "Don't think too much about it."

  Li Aozzi shifted his gaze:

  "her the outer world nor the Four Nations are any good. But for things to get this bad, the Four Nations are undoubtedly mainly responsible."

  Nuo Mi's pale purple eye stared at him for a long time:

  "You really aren't from the Rose Army."

  "Does it matter?"

  "Oh, e on, you're so familiar with the Rose Army's structure, ideology, and deployment—what do you think a Rose Army warrior like me would think?"

  Nuo Mi pyfully held her wrench, snowfkes ging to her shes, her pale purple eye hazy in the blizzard.

  "Respected Li Aozzi, don't you want to expin?"

  "First, 'respected' sounds like you're about to get shot, not a good omen. I'd suggest 'yrace'."

  Li Aozzi took a step closer, looking into Nuo Mi's eye:

  "Sed, if you think you kill me and that meid drive back to the Rose Army alone, go ahead."

  "Oh, and what wouldn't be worth it?" Nuo Mi squinted, smiling.

  "Of course, it wouldn't be worth it. You'd just have one more car. But if you follow me, I'll give you a future."

  Li Aozzi said fidently:

  "A future with sunlight and warmth, where everyone has a ce, where men and women equally enjhts. People won't dig through trash for leftovers, won't beg or perform for mohere will be no prostitutes or sves, children and the elderly will be respected and protected, criminals will be punished by w, and bor will earn fair rewards—that's the future."

  "…Bullshit." Nuo Mi sneered: "Isn't that paradise?"

  "It's not paradise." Li Aozzi said: "It's the life people should have."

  [Nuo Mi's Affe -]

  As soon as Li Aozzi finished speaking, before he could see the number, a chilliion surged through his body.

  Someone was aiming at him!

  This intense sense of crisis was an instinct developed from years of ambushes and sneak attacks by experienced pyers.

  Before he could react, he saw a fsh unpowder in the distahrough the er of his eye.

  No time to dodge!

  Bang!

  Li Aozzi was suddenly tackled to the ground, Nuo Mi pressing his head into her arms, quickly kig open Benny's assembled car door and diving in.

  Thud thud thud!

  Bullets pieruo Mi's shoulder and back, blood flowing down her pale skin, dripping onto Li Aozzi's face.

  "Nuo Mi—"

  "Shut up!"

  Nuo Mi groaned, grittieeth as more bullets hit the car's frame. The assembled car, with al pting, couldn't stop military rifle bullets, which tht through.

  Luckily, the attackers couldn't see them and shot blindly, with stray bullets being blocked by Nuo Mi's small frame.

  Sweating profusely, Nuo Mi bit her lip. Li Aozzi felt her hands g into fists, hearing her low groans.

  How many shots did she take? Li Aozzi checked the team member's status—her energy was already activated, rapidly rec at 20 points per sed.

  "…Ha!"

  She exhaled a breath, several blood-stained bullets popping out of her back, cttering onto the car.

  Gasping for breath, Nuo Mi's purple eye briefly showed red-bck traces before returning to pale purple.

  "Why did you block the bullets?" Li Aozzi questioned: "Those bullets are clearly 6.8mm rifle rounds, even a level 3 bulletproof vest would be torn apart. Are you crazy?"

  "Tch—I won't die, you pretty boy!"

  Struggling to get off him, Nuo Mi curled up, slowly moving uhe car chassis, muttering:

  "Someone who die from two handgun bullets, while I take a whole clip without issue. Isn't that simple, dumbass."

  Referring to when he shot himself in the arm before.

  Li Aozzi had fotten it. Pyers often used self-destruct tactics, fearing h. It was no big deal.

  But Nuo Mi remembered clearly.

  "My start was too smooth, almost fot... I'm no longer a pyer."

  Li Aozzi's gaze shifted, calming his emotions, his eyes turning cold.

  Entering bat mode, his [Charisma] was now 21 points, with the [Perpetual Love Hunt] effecreasing gains by 30%, effectively making his [Charisma] 27.3 points.

  Attribute growth was expoial, snowballing bigger and bigger.

  With such high main attribute gains, he had already obtaihe attacker's information.

  "Damn it!"

  Li Aozzi's blood pressure spiked, cursing:

  "Night Hunter Nimotin—the final boss of the [Assassin] mai!"

  Law IV's junients averaged level 15 and weren't very strong. Li Aozzi, with no energy, could easily kill them with experience.

  But that didn't mean all Law IV agents were weak.

  On the trary, Frost's female rulers meant many powerful women joihe gover, highly educated, well-equipped, joining Law IV for more power and status.

  Night Hunter Nimotin was not only ae agent but also the final boss of the [Assassin] mai.

  What did that mean?

  The [Assassin] profession's mai was notoriously long and involved 40 assassination targets. By the time pyers pleted it, they were max level 30, fag the version's final boss.

  Nimotin wasn't a version boss but was scarier than many version bosses.

  The fierce wind howled, and several figures appeared on the snowfield.

  Thud!

  In long boots, wearing bck coats, female agents calmly walked to higher ground. The golden-haired woman in the lead wore a sophisticated breathing mask. Her left arm retracted a gun barrel, switg to a short dagger from her right arm, held in her hand.

  They wore red-bck armbands with a white snowfke crystal symbol, representing the purity of the Frost Republic, with a promi IV in the ter.

  Their identity was clear.

  "Law IV…" Nuo Mi gritted her teeth: "These butchers!"

  Armed to the teeth, police officers jumped from their vehicles, quickly surrounding them.

  "e out, Rose Army thugs."

  Nimotin's voice, filled with immense energy, resonated like a tiger's roar, making people shudder:

  "You traitors to the republid female guardians, what are you hiding for?"

  "I know who you are, Li Aozzi, o lie. Surrender, we have evidence of your dealings with the Rose Army, gathered by Agent Yavonne. You 't deny it."

  She g the young female agent with a breathing mask beside her.

  —This young dy read a lot, and it was indeed useful.

  After obtaining the restored bank surveilnce footage, Yavonne spent five days alog the smuggling ringleader.

  Ihan two days, she also caught the driver assisting the border smuggling, breaking the entire smuggling . This achievement alone could earn her a substantial reward.

  Every year, many traitors and idlers escape the mothernd's borders. To Nimotin, these men born on their nd but yearning for fn enviros, unwilling to tribute to the

  try's development, drove an immigration wave that severely cked bor.

  Labor was sedary; excessive smuggling and emigration mainly caused fn capital panic.

  This wasn't an ordinary situation; it had to be a deterrent!

  Due to the high number of involved criminals, after interrogating the smuggling anizers, they identified Li Aozzi as the true culprit of the bank arson case.

  Most surprisingly, Yavonne didn't participate in torture, extrag clues about Li Aozzi and the Rose Army without using force.

  Letting a "vase" solve a major case, Nimotin was displeased but had no reason tue, mobilizing polistead of Law IV agents for the chase.

  Fortunately, the warm enviro of this wastewater ke seemed to attract Li Aozzi and his panions.

  It was obvious they were Rose Army thugs.

  Catg two in one go, Nimotin wasn't in a hurry to kill. Alive, they were more valuable for intelligence.

  Nimotin's words left no room for doubt. Whether it was her overwhelming presence or the surrounding police firepower, they were trapped with no escape.
