Chapter 182: Chapter 127: Run or Not? "What if they have further support coming? It’ll be another chaotic battle."
"They’d have to have the guts," Bentley sneered dismissively.
An Ultimate Warrior, along with three Modified Warriors, plus two Mechas—such a formidable force was completely annihilated, would Celestial Craftsmanship dare to send more support?
But despite his words, he quickened his pace in packing up, finally loading everything onto the truck before dawn.
Half an hour after the heavy truck left, dawn broke, and the rain lessened, only then did someone come to check on the situation.
Bentley guessed correctly. Even though the battle here wasn’t loud, Celestial Craftsmanship still had people who paid attention.
When the noise subsided for a long time, realizing their people hadn’t returned, they sent out two men to scout for information.
The scouts found the destroyed vehicles but were shot dead by Bentley before they could figure out what happened.
This time, Celestial Craftsmanship didn’t dare to send anyone else.
The ones who came now were five City Guards, asked by Celestial Craftsmanship to see what had happened at dawn.
Seeing the two destroyed Mechas, the faces of the City Guards turned pale—this force was too ferocious.
Arriving at the small courtyard, they were astonished to find that there had even been a battle with cold weapons!
The two Modified Warriors hired by Celestial Craftsmanship weren’t a secret to the City Guards.
Their ages were relatively old because they had gone through formal hiring procedures, registered with the City Guard.
Discovering that the dead included Modified Warriors from Celestial Craftsmanship, the faces of the five changed in unison: this was big trouble!
One of them cautiously asked, "The three who were beheaded, could the other two also be Modified Warriors?"
The squad leader’s face turned green, "We can’t say anything more, let’s go... luckily this is outside the city."
Two Mechas plus Modified Warriors, all died at the hands of the other side, what qualification did he have to get involved?
The five City Guards left immediately, first calling their people, then notifying Celestial Craftsmanship’s men.
Soon, more City Guards arrived, among them were a few plainly dressed people.
Among these ordinary-looking people were those from Celestial Craftsmanship.
Recognizing the bodies on site, a City Guard identified someone, "This is... Ultimate Warrior Bobov?"
"Ultimate Warrior?" The others were also shocked at the words, "Are you sure?"
Bobov’s head soaked in rainwater was beginning to turn pale and swollen, his eyes stared wide open.
The City Guard who recognized him was also a bit hesitant, then glanced at someone, "Your Celestial Craftsmanship... what’s going on?"
. "There is a Bobov," the Celestial Craftsmanship person didn’t dare deny it, and could only admit, "but I haven’t seen him."
He was of a very low level in the factory, even Celestial Craftsmanship higher-ups wouldn’t dare come, only letting him scout.
"Are you in big trouble now?" The City Guard squad leader glared at him fiercely, "Good thing it’s outside the city!"
Homicides happen in the city or suburbs, those will be investigated, but the Gathering Area’s attitude towards outside the city was of neglect.
Just then, the landlord also arrived, seeing the mess in the courtyard, he couldn’t help but wail, "My house..."
Then, he proactively provided the City Guards with the tenant’s information.
The small courtyard was remote, hard to rent out, two days ago when Bentley rented it, he didn’t provide identification.
The landlord described the tenant’s appearance, hoping the City Guards could help find this person for compensation.
But for the City Guards, they had already gathered the relevant information.
The team leader sneered, "Do you have clear evidence, proving the tenant is related to this battle?"
With clear evidence, the City Guards might not even want to confront the other side, let alone without any evidence.
Then he looked at the Celestial Craftsmanship people, and coldly laughed, "Looks like you’re in big trouble."
His relationship with Celestial Craftsmanship was average, he also knew a colleague came to find fault the day before.
That’s why he had no kind words for Celestial Craftsmanship—my colleague was going to be dragged down by you.
People said they wouldn’t last long, now the speaker was already dead!
The people from Celestial Craftsmanship didn’t dare retort, quickly contacting their people, passing back the news.
The repair shop owner, that little old man, initially didn’t think something would go wrong in the night’s operation.
With Ultimate Warriors, Modified Warriors, and Mechas involved, could the other side withstand it?
Therefore, he didn’t pay any attention at night and went out for a social gathering, only returning after getting drunk.
He was shouted awake early in the morning, drunk and irritable.
"Old as I am, don’t they know how hard it is for me to fall asleep? Without a good reason... I’ll be angry!"

The old man’s post-bedside rage quickly turned to fright, he asked in horror.
"Bobov, three Modified Warriors, and two Mechas... all gone? How many people did the other side have?"
"I don’t know," the reporting person also looked extremely ugly, "Everyone involved is dead..."
"But someone heard the final alert, seemed both on the other side... were Ultimate Warriors!"
"Both Ultimate Warriors?" The old man’s face grew increasingly grim, "Is the information reliable?"
The reporting person looked at him helplessly, thinking he knew as much as the old man.
The old man pondered for a moment, making a decision, "Looks like this time it’s going to cost a lot..."
But he hadn’t completely given up the idea of revenge, first reaching out to some big shots in Houjing, hoping they’d step forward to punish the culprits.
However, it was unrealistic, who would be so bored as to seek trouble with such a strong force?
