Unrivaled Soldier in the City

Chapter 406 406: The Sleeping Lion Has Awoken

By this time, Kubo Takumi had arrived with his team, just in time to see Lin Kuang and Huo Feifei leaving.

Seeing the path they were taking, Kubo Takumi's expression changed drastically—that was the location of the Biochemical Virus progenitor!

"Ichiro Kawano, I'm leaving this to you." Without a backward glance, Kubo Takumi immediately took off after Lin Kuang.

Seeing this, Ichiro Kawano said nothing, his gaze settling on Sun Lei and the others.

"Go! Kill them!" Ichiro Kawano commanded.

At his command, the ten Gene Warriors behind him nodded and charged forward with their guns raised. They were like human killing machines. Bullets struck their bodies to no effect as they continued their advance. Only a shot to the heart or through the head could kill them.

With the addition of these ten men, Kang Cheng, Zhang Tianyou, and the others suddenly felt immense pressure. However, they were also elite Special Forces soldiers. Under this strain, their combat effectiveness only grew stronger as they fought desperately against their adversaries.

Meanwhile, Lin Kuang led Huo Feifei ever closer to the Biochemical Virus progenitor.

"Brother Kuang, we're only about a hundred meters away," Huo Feifei said with a smile, clutching her laptop.

Despite the danger, Huo Feifei felt perfectly safe next to Lin Kuang. In fact, she was quite happy, as if this were just a pleasant trip.

"Alright. Let's speed up and get it," Lin Kuang said with a smile.

Huo Feifei nodded in agreement, smiling as well.

Just then, Lin Kuang shoved Huo Feifei aside as he dodged in the opposite direction. A flash of steel sliced through the air where they had just stood. It was a close call; they had dodged just in time. Lin Kuang now saw his attacker—it was none other than Kubo Takumi.

Kubo Takumi held his Dao He Katana, his cold gaze fixed on Lin Kuang. His eyes conveyed both contempt and an undisguised killing intent.

"Damn Chinamen! You dare to come here? You're courting death!" Kubo Takumi said icily, looking at Lin Kuang and Huo Feifei.

Lin Kuang pulled Huo Feifei behind him and faced Kubo Takumi, his expression serene. "Courting death? I'm afraid you're not qualified."

Lin Kuang's calm words were laced with unmistakable disdain, as if he didn't take Kubo Takumi seriously in the slightest.

Seeing Lin Kuang's demeanor and hearing his arrogant tone, Kubo Takumi burst out laughing, his voice thick with mockery. "You Chinamen are as boastful as ever. But I suppose that's just your nature," he said dismissively.

"Is that so?" Lin Kuang's voice was placid, yet it carried an indescribable coldness. "Does someone from a defeated nation have any right to speak like that? You don't even have the courage to admit your country's defeat, so what gives you the right to be so shameless? Who gave you the right to use the term 'Chinaman'? Address us as people of Hua Country. A defeated nation should have the self-awareness of a defeated nation. Understand?"

Hearing this, Kubo Takumi's face flushed crimson with anger, and his body began to tremble.

"Very well! So be it, you sharp-tongued Chinaman! In that case, I will kill you to prove the might of our Yamato nation!" With a flick of his wrist, Kubo Takumi pointed the tip of his Dao He Katana straight at Lin Kuang.

Lin Kuang smiled disdainfully. "Kill me? To prove the strength of your Island Country's people? Tsk, tsk. Are you really trying to prove the strength of your Island Country, or are you just trying to kill me to soothe your own pathetic ego?

"Individually, we people of Hua Country are stronger than you. As a group, the united strength of Hua Country is a hundred, even a thousand times greater than yours! I'm genuinely curious, where does this sense of superiority of yours come from? Is it from that palm-sized scrap of land you call a country?"

Some people truly don't know their place. Their hearts are twisted, they lack the courage to admit defeat, and they can't even face reality. People like that are no different from trash.

Hearing Lin Kuang's scathing taunts, Kubo Takumi's face turned a hideous shade of red, like a monkey's backside, so flushed it looked as though it might start bleeding.

"Fine! Fine! You damned Chinaman! If you have guts, then fight! Stop running your mouth! You said your people are strong? Then let me see what strength the so-called 'Sick Man of East Asia' actually possesses!" Kubo Takumi spat, his voice a mixture of disdain and fury.

"A sleeping lion is always powerful," Lin Kuang said, his tone calm and confident. "Sometimes, a few monkeys might think the sleeping lion has grown weak, that it is finished. But the moment that lion awakens, its might is undeniable! At that point, no matter how wildly the monkeys leap about, they will have no choice but to submit! That's why your Island Country lost the war. A monkey will always be a monkey. Before an awakened lion, it can only grovel, submit, and beg for mercy."

At his words, Kubo Takumi's face grew even uglier. He was so angry he couldn't think of a retort, his chest heaving rapidly as his fury reached its zenith.

"Damn you! Enough with the nonsense! When you're dying on my blade, you'll learn that this trash talk only enrages me, makes me stronger, and makes me want to butcher you!" Kubo Takumi roared, slashing his katana fiercely toward Lin Kuang.

Lin Kuang sidestepped the attack with a slight shift of his body. "If it's just nonsense, why does it enrage you?" he said again. "If it were nonsense, you should be able to dismiss it. The fact that you're so furious proves that deep down, you've already admitted you are the monkey. Your mouth can deny it, but that changes nothing. A monkey will always be a monkey. You have neither the right nor the ability to replace the lion."

As Lin Kuang spoke, Kubo Takumi continued to slash wildly with his Dao He Katana, while Lin Kuang effortlessly dodged left and right, finishing his speech.

Listening to Lin Kuang's relentless words, Kubo Takumi could no longer hold back. The rage burning inside him felt like it was about to make him explode.

"You damn Chinaman! What can you do besides spout nonsense? If you have any skill, fight me!" Kubo Takumi bellowed, swinging his blade down in another heavy slash.

CLANG!

At that instant, Nameless flashed from its sheath at Lin Kuang's waist, firmly blocking Kubo Takumi's attack.
