Mo Ming ran out of the room and happened to bump into Liufeng.
"Boss, why are you running so fast? Who's chasing you?" Liufeng saw Mo Ming in such a hurry and thought he must have encountered some trouble. His brows furrowed, and a thought flashed through his mind, leading him to smirk and say, "It must be Su Yu, Sister, looking for you to spar, right?"
When Liufeng mentioned sparring, his eyes had a somewhat lewd glint, making it easy for others to think in a certain direction.
"Liufeng, can you not be so vulgar? Just because you're Liufeng and can be flirtatious doesn't mean you have to be so crude!" Mo Ming rolled his eyes and said, "It is indeed Su Yu, Sister, looking for me to spar. However, I am a principled person and won't easily engage in a fight, especially not with a beautiful woman."
"Bah!" Liufeng looked at Mo Ming with disdain and said, "You really don't fight against a beautiful woman? Back when you dealt with that thousand-year fox from Island Nation, did you show any pity? You completely ignored her pitiful pleading eyes and just snapped her neck!"
"That's different; one is an enemy and the other is not. They can't be compared!" Mo Ming recalled what had just happened and decided not to banter with Liufeng anymore. He said seriously, "Liufeng, I just encountered something very strange that might be related to the ancient book Seventh Master gave me."
Upon hearing it was about the ancient book, Liufeng also stopped his teasing. His expression turned serious as he asked, "What strange thing?"
"My strength has increased again. Just now when Su Yu attacked me, I chose to dodge instead of engaging her. Then something bizarre happened—my speed became incredibly fast, at least twice as fast as before!" Mo Ming said with a wry smile.
"Twice as fast as before!" Liufeng's eyes widened in shock. "Your speed was already quite abnormal; what does it mean if it's doubled?"
Suddenly, Liufeng launched an attack, swinging his fist toward Mo Ming's face.
With only a meter between them and the attack coming unexpectedly, even the previous Mo Ming would have found it hard to dodge. However, Mo Ming showed no signs of panic; instead, he smiled lightly and tilted his body to easily evade Liufeng's punch.
In that instant of dodging, Mo Ming also reached out to grab Liufeng's missed punch and used his strength to push him back.
"Wow, that's incredibly fast! At your speed, Boss, I probably won't ever catch up to you in this lifetime!" Liufeng shook his head with a bitter smile. That last move was merely a test on his part; he never expected Mo Ming would not only dodge but also catch his fist. This speed truly exceeded twice what it had been before.
"Shocking, isn't it? I was shocked too. The speed is secondary; what's more important is that what you perceive as fast motion appears to me like a slow-motion replay. This is particularly strange to me. Did someone tamper with my eyes while I was unconscious?" Mo Ming said with a bitter smile, shaking his head.
"Who the hell tampered with your eyes? Bring him here; I'll have him do the same for me!" Liufeng rolled his eyes and said seriously, "I think your changes are definitely related to the strange movements you made after waking up from your coma. It's truly amazing that just a set of movements can enhance your abilities."
"That's what I can't figure out either. This matter is really too incredible, and I don't want too many people to know about it for now." Mo Ming thought it wise to keep this under wraps, planning to use it later when encountering some experts from the Dark Order organization, which could yield unexpected results. Mo Ming preferred to keep a card up his sleeve; that way, even if unexpected situations arose, he would have a way to handle them.
"Yeah, let's not tell Poisonous Madness about this for now. The fewer people who know, the better," Liufeng nodded in agreement, understanding Mo Ming's intention. It wasn't that he didn't trust Poisonous Madness and the others; it was just that such matters could easily slip out, and once word spread, it would lose its mystery.
"During the days I was unconscious, did you all stay here the entire time?" Mo Ming asked.
"Except for me going out, they all stayed here training. They must have been stimulated by the situation, especially the new members. They haven't seen many brothers die before, so they were particularly downcast and have been training hard. They probably want to improve their strength to avenge our fallen brothers," Liufeng said with a bitter smile. He felt a bit sour inside; losing so many brothers would affect anyone's mood unless that person was heartless.
But who can truly be heartless? Even those who appear indifferent like Lyu would feel deeply saddened upon witnessing their brothers' deaths. The "Brotherhood of Justice" can be ruthless towards enemies but cannot be numb towards their own brothers; this is the core spirit of the Brotherhood of Justice!
"This war is destined to bury countless bones. Lyu and the others should experience such cruelty. With so many brothers lost, it’s hard for any of us not to feel sorrowful. But sorrow aside, we still need to gather our spirits and continue on our path; we won't rest until we achieve our goals!" Mo Ming spoke with great determination. He understood that this war meant death and sacrifice, but he also knew that none of his brothers were cowards; they were all brave men with iron wills!
"They understand," Liufeng said with a bitter smile.
"Liufeng, did you get any useful information while you were out?" Mo Ming inquired.
"No useful information at all—just some scattered bits that are of no consequence. Hong Gang is still searching for us, but it's difficult for them to find this place," Liufeng shook his head.
"Oh, what about news from Nanhua City?"
Upon hearing this, Liufeng seemed to recall something and laughed heartily: "I forgot to tell you some good news! Wen Bao indeed led people to cause trouble in Nanhua City with over four thousand men and acquired quite a few firearms. Luckily, thanks to your early warning, Frenzied Warrior took action first and sent Undead Celestial Executioner’s men to cut off their arms deal. Then He Yunsong led Little Green Society's people and took care of Wen Bao's four thousand men."
"Damn it, when did this happen? Why are you only telling me now?" Mo Ming cursed with a laugh.
"When you were unconscious, I planned to tell you when you woke up, but I got so excited that I forgot. If you hadn't asked, I wouldn't have remembered at all," Liufeng chuckled a few times and continued, "But unfortunately, Wen Bao managed to escape. His skills are quite impressive; he actually managed to get away from the Frenzied Warrior. He must be lucky!"
"Wen Bao is just a minor character; it doesn't matter whether he lives or dies. The main thing is to figure out how to deal with Yin Jiu, that old fox. Evil Eye mentioned they have a plan, but he didn't clarify what it was. I think Yin Jiu might know something. We need to find a way to get him talking!"
"We're not sure if there are any experts like Evil Eye over at Yin Jiu's place. If we go looking for him recklessly, we could easily fall into their trap. Boss, I'm not sure what our next step should be." Liufeng originally intended to visit the Hong Gang headquarters, but considering that the Dark Order had sent someone like Evil Eye, he didn't want to act impulsively.
Mo Ming pondered for a moment and asked, "Where is the Dragon Group's secret base?"
"It's in the mountains outside Sanpan City. You can't drive there; it takes about three hours on foot to reach it. I've investigated and found out there are thirty-four members of the Dragon Group here. The person in charge is Su Yu, and all the arms are stored in eleven buildings. They have five shifts every day, with four people per shift..."
Liufeng recounted everything he had discovered. It must be said that Liufeng's habits as an assassin were hard to change; even though he knew this was a safe place, he couldn't help but gather so much information, including the location of the data room.
"Boss, what do you plan to do?"
"Heh, if Director Huang finds out you gathered so much information about them, he'll probably be furious. Anyway, I'm not interested in this place; I just want to know how long it takes to get out of here." Mo Ming chuckled and said to Liufeng, "Liufeng, we've rested long enough; it's time for us to take action."
"Are you planning to take me out for a walk?" Liufeng grinned mischievously.
Mo Ming stretched lazily and replied, "Yes, let's go out for a bit. Sanpan City might be too quiet without us; we should liven things up."
"Should we call Poisonous Madness and Crocodile?" Liufeng asked.
"No need; just the two of us will do. We'll go out for some fun and come back," Mo Ming shook his head and said.
"Oh, are we going out now?"
"What do you think?" Mo Ming replied, and the two exchanged a smile, not bothering with further small talk as they walked outside together.
As they left the Dragon Group's secret base, they encountered several members of the Dragon Group. Huang Feng had informed them about Mo Ming and the others' identities, so they didn't pay much attention, greeting them politely without inquiring about Mo Ming and Liufeng's whereabouts.
After exiting the Dragon Group's secret base, Liufeng led Mo Ming along a mountain path for over two hours until they finally reached the highway. This area was desolate, making it difficult to catch a ride. Mo Ming and Liufeng walked towards Sanpan City for about half an hour before finally spotting a bus coming from outside.
They boarded the bus and traveled for approximately twenty minutes before entering the city center of Sanpan City.
Before the bus reached the station, Mo Ming and Liufeng got off.
"Boss, where are we heading first?" Liufeng asked.
Mo Ming had already made plans in his mind. Without hesitation, he said, "Let's go find Mourning Lion to get an update on the situation."
Having been unconscious for over ten days, Mo Ming was unaware of Hong Gang's current situation. He needed to consult Mourning Lion, a significant figure within Hong Gang, to discuss their next course of action. The previous plan had been disrupted by the appearance of Evil Eye, and now that Evil Eye was dead, he needed to establish a new strategy.
