Chapter 007: Detonating the Martial Arts World (Part One)

A great battle is about to commence

A large number of fully armed special police officers, equipped with high-tech beam weapons, entered in succession, using each police car as cover, aiming their weapons at the doors and windows of the hazardous materials warehouse, as well as all possible escape routes.

Kado suddenly stopped pressing the remote control, turned to look at the young girl, and his completely expressionless face resembled that of someone with a facial paralysis. "You are very clever, as expected of the heiress of the Kyoto International Culinary Group, Qin Mofei"

"Yes! Officer!" The accompanying officer nodded emphatically and turned to grab the intercom.

Suddenly, the television screen went completely black

Qin Mofei had unknowingly fallen asleep in her drowsiness, and when she awoke again, the voice of the news anchor from the television reached her ears

However, in the next moment, disaster struck as the robbers, who had long been lurking in several ventilation openings of the warehouse, finally launched a heavy fire attack on the special police.

Seeing Cardo's reaction, Qín Mòfēi became even more resolute in her thoughts. "Our Jingdu International Group is the largest sponsor of martial arts schools in the world. In the four great powers of Zhànguó, Jīngguó, Yīlán, and Fànlín, there are martial arts schools funded by my father everywhere. And the real reason you kidnapped me is to make my father stop funding these schools, isn't it?"

However, moments later, Cardo coldly stated, "It is about time; we should get to work."

Kado did not respond to the girl's words, resembling a puppet that could not speak

Soon, there will be chaos in the martial arts world, and you can only helplessly watch as one martial arts school after another collapses, until all martial artists vanish from this world

In the warehouse, a young girl was bound to a load-bearing column, her eyes filled with fear and anxiety as she stared at the police outside the door, desperately shaking her head, seemingly signaling something to the special police.

Didi! Didi! Didi! Di! Di! Di... ...

What kind of organization are these people actually from

I understand..." said Qin Mofei in a solemn tone

Swish swish

Qin Mofei slowly opened her eyes and looked at the television across the campfire. "Why is there news at this hour?"

Kado stared out the window for a moment, his signature expressionless face making it impossible to discern what he was truly thinking.

"Why aren't you answering me? What exactly are your intentions? Since the time you kidnapped me, you haven't even made a single phone call to my father. Is it not money that you want? Then what is it that you truly seek?" the girl said coldly

A robber stationed at the entrance hurriedly ran in front of Cardo, pointing outside and said, "It must be that kid who escaped earlier who reported us! Master Cardo, what should we do?"

Currently, the four strongest countries in the world are the Warring States, Jingguo, Yilan, and Fanlin. If all the martial arts schools in these four countries were to close down, the martial artists from the smaller nations would naturally be unable to survive

Qin Mofei carefully scrutinized Cardo, recalling the news broadcasted by both the Jingguo and international governments over the past few days, as well as her own kidnapping incident

What benefits does this bring to the world

A layer of mist seems to have been slowly cleared away by her

Kado remained silent, but he could hear Qín Mòfēi's words, and a glimmer of murderous intent flickered in his eyes

Before anyone could react, the warehouse door, which was at least 2 centimeters thick, was instantly blown off, propelling the group of special police officers and the books two meters away, ultimately pinning several individuals under the shattered door.

Qin Mofei could see that although the news anchor on the television appeared calm and composed, her hand gripping the news script was tightly clenched, and the paper had already developed creases. This action could not conceal the anxiety and unease she felt inside

Boom

After Kadu finished speaking, he got up and returned to sit under the load-bearing column opposite, continuing to change channels on the television remote.

This is an abandoned hazardous materials warehouse. Although it has been neglected for a long time, the chemical hazardous materials inside have not been removed

What do they intend to do with the martial artists of this world

Is the international government insane

In the distance, two thick beams of searchlight illuminated the roof of the warehouse, and soon two black AH-80 Apache attack helicopters arrived, hovering in the air, with their gun barrels aimed at the warehouse

However, in the next moment, everyone's pupils suddenly constricted

However, it is now deep into the night, and the television channels have lost all signal, displaying only a field of black and white snowflakes. It is unclear what he is desperately trying to find by changing the channels.

Your true purpose in kidnapping me is to make my father stop funding the major martial arts schools around the world" said Qin Mofei with a frown

Suddenly, one of the experienced special police officers shouted into the intercom, "All retreat! There is a bomb!"

The Great Chaos in the Martial Arts World

Although it is a clichéd opening line typical of police and criminal dramas, the fully armed special police and advanced technology surrounding them have already made their stance clear to the robbers

You will never know what will happen in the next moment; it may give you a glimmer of hope, but at an unknown time, it will completely destroy your hope.

In the open space at the center of the warehouse, a pile of firewood is slowly burning, occasionally emitting the crackling sound of wood burning.

What exactly do you want? Why have you kidnapped me? Is it just for money?

Seeing that there was no response from the warehouse, the officer outside signaled the two teams of special police nearby to advance

Unknowingly, we have arrived at the deepest part of the night, the clouds in the sky thick as ink, increasingly oppressive

Two teams of special police received the order, raised their guns, and cautiously approached the entrance of the warehouse, preparing to execute a breakout

Is it true that with the advancement of technology, ancient civilizations must be abandoned and forgotten

The special police officer who had just arrived at the entrance suddenly stopped in his tracks upon hearing a strange sound emanating from inside the warehouse door

Suddenly, her gaze fell upon Cardo, only to find him staring motionlessly at the television.

At this moment, the hazardous materials warehouse has become the target of widespread criticism

Perhaps, what is more terrifying than despair is being immersed in the unknown dangers

At this moment, the hazardous materials warehouse is surrounded by heavy police forces. Hovering police vehicles are stationed at the entrance of the warehouse, as if casting a vast net, ready to capture all wrongdoing in one sweep. The red and blue lights seem to be the only colors in this abandoned street.

The Jingguo Television Station broadcasting news in the middle of the night is certainly not a trivial matter

Opposite the campfire, the girl who had just been captured was tied to a load-bearing pillar, looking pitiful and dirty.

In the warehouse, the robbers who had originally gathered in the central open space were now nowhere to be found. Only a small television continued to broadcast a frenzied heavy metal music concert.

Kado turned off the television, remaining expressionless, with his eyes fixed straight ahead, seemingly deep in thought

Attention citizens of Jingguo City, an urgent news bulletin is being broadcast. Due to numerous martial artists surrounding the international government in a demonstration, the government has dispatched a large number of technological troops to suppress the situation. During the suppression, there has been strong resistance from the martial artists, resulting in smoke filling the area around the international government located in the first district of Jingguo. We advise all citizens to stay away from the first district, as the international government will implement a comprehensive lockdown within a five-kilometer radius. Additionally, for the next three days, no fewer than 50 martial arts schools will cease operations.

Surrounding me are some disordered shelves piled to one side, their labels obscured by a thick layer of dust, rendering them quite indistinct. However, the words "Hazardous Materials" are still faintly visible. Countless chemical fuel barrels are displayed on the shelves, resembling ticking time bombs.

The officer in charge immediately recognized the young girl as Qin Mofei, the daughter of the Kyoto International Gourmet Group

If you do not surrender, there is only one path left: death

However, just as Qin Mofei was immersed in the shock of the truth, a dozen blinding lights suddenly shone in from outside the warehouse window

Then why do you still want to kidnap me? Also, for whom are you really working?

Kado stood up from the ground, walked in front of Qin Mofei, slowly crouched down, and gazed into her eyes filled with anger. "What we want is not just a little bit of money from your family; we want more, our appetite is greater, and you simply cannot afford it"

Kado's eyes shifted, and he cast a sidelong glance at Qin Mofei

Only two micro-missiles fired from rocket launchers were seen, instantly hitting two buses loaded with special police officers

The girl, known as Qin Mofei, had her eyes slightly twitching as she stared intently at Cardo, remaining silent.

The young girl stared intently at the young man named Cardo, who was sitting under another load-bearing pillar across the campfire, changing channels on a small television with a remote control.

His sudden remark had a significant impact on Qin Mofei's heart

What exactly is the purpose of your actions? With martial arts schools closing one after another, what benefits do you gain from this

Inside a dilapidated warehouse, several palm-sized incandescent bulbs on the ceiling flicker intermittently, with the possibility of extinguishing at any moment, accompanied by a crackling sound of electric current

At this moment, only Qin Mofei, Cardo, and the robbers on the other side, who are drinking beer and watching a heavy metal rock band concert on another portable television, remain in the warehouse

You need not inquire about this; we will arrange it freely

At that time, the warriors will face the danger of extinction

In an instant, all the special police officers aimed their weapons at the inside of the warehouse

Large buses carrying armed special police officers arrived one after another, surrounding the warehouse completely and leaving no gaps.

Mr. Cardo! It is the police! There are many police officers outside!

Kadu turned his head expressionlessly to look out the warehouse window, his eyes showing no hint of surprise

That feeling is more terrifying than despair

Kado remained silent, simply gazing quietly at Qin Mofei

Suddenly, he turned to the attendant officer behind him and said, "It is Qin Mofei! Quickly contact the people from Kyoto International; their heiress has been found!"

A tall and robust police officer issued an ultimatum through the loudspeaker of the police car, stating, "Terrorists inside, you are surrounded. I command you once again to release the hostages immediately, or we will force our way in."
