Chapter 98 - I'll Start With You!
"Intruders! There are people inside the building!" a few terrorist agents came upstairs as they heard the sound of gunshots were fired. It did not come from Zhang Qin Feng, but the special squadron allocated firearms.
Although it was already restricted by a specially built muzzle, the sound from the gunshot still capable of spreading through the walls and floors a stair below them.
In a flash, more than twenty terrorist agents are coming up from the sixth floor and started to shoot at random as they forced Zhang Qin Feng and Lightbulb to take cover.
Even if they had some protective gear over them, getting shot was not an option. To regular people, the vest and protective equipment were there to keep their lives intact. Sometimes, being heroic equal to charging forward to get shot first.
If you're lucky, perhaps nine out of ten shots might miss, with only one barely scraping part of your body. But for the unlucky one, a scrape from the wild bullet is all it needs to take you out in the middle of a gunfight.
Such an example is clearly seen when Zhang Qin Feng tried to take Donald Mckenzie out while the latter was running to the vehicle he hides.
And that was done without disturbance around Zhang Qin Feng.
But what the terrorists didn't manage to guess was that Zhang Qin Feng and Lightbulb weren't their only opponents in this gunfight. No matter how prepared and trained they are, it was not enough to fight against Stein.
[Three seconds timer, counting from now...]

[Luna II scanned 21 assailants. At most, only four rifles still had bullets in their chamber. 17 to 19 targets are believed to emptied their magazine]
-
[It is now safe to move out and return fire. The chances of success are over 80%]
Using two fingers as the signal, Zhang Qin Feng ordered Lightbulb to move along with him in their counterattack.
*Kerchak!*
The pin to make sure the bullet was in the chamber is pulled once by Zhang Qin Feng as he placed his index finger on the Centurion S-11's trigger.
Since it was not a fully automatic rifle, he had to pull the trigger repeatedly to keep firing. And that's actually contributed to his accuracy. Seven out of ten shots fired by Zhang Qin Feng landed on random parts of the target's body as he forced them to a retreat.
But the advantageous position does not last.
Zhang Qin Feng then tossed three Shockwave Grenades down the stairs after pressing the activation button. It was like someone opened the base speaker to its maximum capacity the moment the grenade detonated.
"To the end of the corridor!" Zhang Qin Feng ordered. This sudden command made Lightbulb rolled on the ground as he moved himself to the corner of where Zhang Qin Feng pointed without further ado.
Rain of bullets was soon fired through the flooring as the terrorist randomly fired their rifle at the sixth-floor ceiling.
Both of them would look like a honeycomb right now if they reacted a few seconds later. But regretfully, the two can't repeat what the terrorist agents were doing because there's still hostage in their hands.
All it might take was a stray bullet from either side to kill the hostages immediately.
[Three targets coming up from the stairs. Six remained under the shooting point]
Stein's accurate report was crucial to the two as it gave them an overview. To Lightbulb, this was the first time he was put in such a situation.
Zhang Qin Feng then makes a hand gesture stating that he will be the one to go down first. The steel dagger now replaced the Centurion S-11 Rifle as it took over the responsibility during a melee battle.
The dagger in Zhang Qin Feng's hand immediately makes Lightbulb understand that they'll get into hand-to-hand combat. But what he wasn't expecting was that Zhang Qin Feng will borrow the firm structure of the ceiling above their head to push himself leg first into the flooring.
*Crash!*
Zhang Qin Feng appeared on the sixth floor as he charged at two terrorist agents in front of his landing point. His dagger stabbed straight into their right chest as it would mean death straight to them if he went for their left.
"Shoot!" one of the four remaining terrorists managed to get his mind together as he was the farthest out of the six. As he was about to pull the trigger on his Automated-Kalash L-47, Lightbulb came to the rescue.
The dagger in his hand went straight to the terrorist's wrist before he delivered a kick to the crotch.
"How's that?" Lightbulb asked as he grabbed the pistol from the holster and fired at another terrorist's inner thigh.
Four out of the six terrorists located right below them were taken down, but the three climbing up the stairs were back in haste as they added their headcount to the fight.
"I'll take the one from the stairs." Zhang Qin Feng said as he turned and faced the three terrorists with the rifle in their hand. In his hand were the steel dagger and not the Centurion S-11 Rifle.
"Noted. I'll take these two." Lightbulb said.
"As if it gave the terrorist some confidence due to their numbers, they actually took Zhang Qin Feng and Lightbulb's action as a provocation to their self-esteem.
The seven of them got into a fistfight as Zhang Qin Feng fought against three, Lightbulb against two.
"No wonder why they're so confident..." after exchanging a few blows with his three opponents, Zhang Qin Feng realized why his three opponents looked happy. Each of them was an expert. In a way, they do not lose to Hei Mang from the Xuanwu Gang.
"But... Do you think that I am a pushover?" Zhang Qin Feng grinned and changed his fighting stance. Cracking his shoulder and bones to loosen some of his stiffer muscles, Zhang Qin Feng charged straight at one of the three terrorists.
"Come on! I'll start from taking you out first!"
