Unrivaled Soldier in the City

Chapter 409 409 Mysterious Master

Seeing this, Lin Kuang couldn't help but reach out and pat Huo Feifei's head. "You silly girl."

Hearing his words, Huo Feifei smiled sweetly at Lin Kuang without saying anything, looking utterly content.

Ten minutes later, a helicopter arrived. Lin Kuang had Zhang Tianyou, Kang Cheng, and the others board first. He remained behind with the unconscious Kubo Takumi, the researchers, and Huo Feifei to wait for the second helicopter. The second one arrived quickly as well, taking less than twenty minutes to reach them.

Lin Kuang, along with the group of researchers and Huo Feifei, boarded the helicopter and departed.

Only when the helicopter ascended high into the sky did Lin Kuang allow Huo Feifei to activate the laboratory's self-destruct mechanism. Huo Feifei acknowledged the order and activated the device.

BOOM! BOOM!

A series of muffled explosions erupted, and the towering mountain peak suddenly collapsed by dozens of meters, shaking the entire forest. A cloud of dust and debris billowed up as the underground laboratory was completely destroyed.

Witnessing this, Lin Kuang finally felt relieved. He sat quietly in the helicopter, watching over the researchers. As for Huo Feifei, she leaned against Lin Kuang's shoulder and soon fell asleep. What a carefree girl.

Lin Kuang smiled helplessly and patted Huo Feifei's head with a familiar, gentle gesture, then sat quietly.

By the time Lin Kuang and his group returned to the East Sea Military Region, the sky had already brightened. It was nearly six o'clock in the morning. Zhang Tianyou, Kang Cheng, and the others had arrived earlier, and the injured had already been sent for medical treatment.

The helicopter landed on the parade ground, and Lin Kuang emerged, leading the group of researchers out.

Seeing them, Yang Wucheng and Zhang Guodong, who were waiting there, were slightly taken aback before a look of understanding crossed their faces. They were extremely satisfied with what Lin Kuang had accomplished.

"Kid, well done!" At that moment, Yang Wucheng and Zhang Guodong both walked over, smiling and patting Lin Kuang on the shoulder.

"Ahem, it was just a fluke, Uncle Yang, Uncle Zhang," Lin Kuang said, coughing lightly. His tone then turned grave. "This is the biochemical virus prototype, and these are the researchers. What's the arrangement for them?"

Hearing this, Yang Wucheng and Zhang Guodong exchanged a look. Yang Wucheng then spoke up, "I'll have someone escort these people back to Yanjing. The biochemical virus prototype needs to be taken back as well. Colonel Huo, please return with my men." As he spoke, his gaze fell on Huo Feifei.

Startled for a moment, Huo Feifei quickly saluted. "Yes, sir."

In truth, Huo Feifei didn't want to leave. After all, she had only been with Lin Kuang for a short time, but as a soldier, she had to do her duty.

"You should get some rest first. I'll arrange for an escort to take you back around noon or in the afternoon," Yang Wucheng added, and Huo Feifei quickly nodded.

"Lin Kuang, who's this?" Yang Wucheng couldn't help but ask, noticing the unconscious man at Lin Kuang's feet.

"This guy is the strongest person from that Biochemical Research Institute, and probably the one in charge. I'm going to interrogate him first," Lin Kuang said with a smile.

"Hmm, good. Let's head straight to the interrogation room," Yang Wucheng said, then glanced at Luo Yu, who was standing beside him. "Luo Yu, I'm leaving you in charge of arranging a place for Colonel Huo to rest and temporary quarters for the researchers."

"Yes, Commander!" Luo Yu responded loudly before proceeding to make the arrangements.

Meanwhile, Lin Kuang, dragging Kubo Takumi, followed Yang Wucheng and Zhang Guodong into the interrogation room, where Inoue Kenta, Sato Ichiro, and the others were still bound.

When Lin Kuang entered dragging Kubo Takumi, Inoue Kenta's expression grew complex. He was well aware that the person in charge of that base was Kubo Takumi, his own junior disciple. The moment Lin Kuang headed for the research institute, Inoue Kenta had predicted this outcome. His junior disciple would either be killed or captured alive; after all, he knew just how powerful Lin Kuang was. Seeing Kubo Takumi captured and brought here now did not surprise him in the slightest.

"Inoue Kenta," Lin Kuang said with a smile, glancing at him. "Your junior disciple is here to join the fun."

Hearing this, Inoue Kenta could only manage a bitter smile. "Please don't joke with me, Mr. Lin."

"No, no, how could I be joking with you?" Lin Kuang said, his smile unwavering. "Actually, I'm quite curious. Who exactly is your teacher? Also, I remember that right before I captured you, you were muttering about a 'Master.' I'm very interested in who you were referring to.

"Please forgive me for not asking during the last interrogation; it slipped my mind."

Hearing Lin Kuang's words, the color drained from Inoue Kenta's face. Hesitation, and even fear, filled his eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Kuang couldn't help but frown. Judging by Inoue Kenta's reaction, there must be a story here!

"Speak, Inoue Kenta. You know my methods. Tell the truth and spare yourself the pain. Otherwise, you know the consequences," Lin Kuang said with a calm smile, but the expression sent an involuntary shiver down Inoue Kenta's spine.

He was all too familiar with that smile. If he didn't talk, Lin Kuang would definitely make him suffer! Thinking of this, Inoue Kenta struggled internally for a moment before finally letting out a resigned sigh, his face a mask of utter defeat.

"I'll talk. I'll tell you everything."

Seeing this, Lin Kuang nodded with satisfaction. "Good. What's going on?"

"It's nothing complicated. Both Kubo Takumi and I are disciples of our teacher, Mr. Miura Ken. Once we gained a certain level of strength, we joined the Self-Defense Forces and became soldiers. That's our background. As for the 'Master' I spoke of... he is a truly terrifying individual."

At this point, Inoue Kenta's eyes filled with intense fear, and his face turned ashen.

Lin Kuang frowned, pressing, "What exactly do you mean?"

"I've never seen his true face, but he is incredibly strong," Inoue Kenta explained. "He just patted me lightly once, and my body was filled with a powerful energy. That man... is my Master. As for his origins, I have absolutely no idea."

"Then why do you call him 'Master'?" Lin Kuang asked curiously.

"Because if you want his power, you must address him as 'Master.' Only then will he grant it to you. For the sake of power, I had to call him that," Inoue Kenta said, his voice trembling with fear as he looked at Lin Kuang. "Moreover, the Master's strength is overwhelming. Just standing in his presence makes me want to kneel in worship. I wouldn't dare to harbor a single thought of resistance."
