All other similar items have already been destroyed by such violent bombings, and this box is the only one that has survived.
However, Qin Fang also noticed that this box had actually sustained some damage, with obvious fine cracks left in a corner.
Although these cracks wouldn't cause the box to completely shatter, Qin Fang pondered that if it were bombed again, the box definitely wouldn't survive...
Of course, this assumption wouldn't hold.
The military's bombing mission has been completed, and the objective has been achieved, so there's naturally no need to remain within Anlang Territory. By now, they've probably already returned to the airport, and it's impossible for them to specifically come back to bomb just for this box…
Not to mention, this box is now in Qin Fang's hands, and Qin Fang certainly doesn't want to be caught off guard and be suddenly blasted sky-high by a missile…
"The stuff of the Hand of the Devil?"
Qin Fang originally wouldn't have been overly concerned about whether the box was damaged, but from the conversation of these two foolish guards, a fact was vaguely revealed.
That is, these boxes originally belonged to the Hand of the Devil Mercenary Corps…
Originally, Qin Fang had speculated that the box might be something lost by the Dragon Country side, and it was for this item that the Dragon Country Military resorted to such means of destruction.
However, seeing Tang Cheng and his group return directly to the border instead of clearing out the remaining mercenaries from the Hand of the Devil, Qin Fang faintly felt that the Hand of the Devil's scheme seemed unsuccessful.
Now, having learned that these boxes belong to the Hand of the Devil and that they seem to contain something quite unusual, or very possibly a weapon of mass destruction, Qin Fang's brows furrowed deeply…
This is not impossible. The Mercenary Alliance is one of the largest arms dealers in the world, not only having close ties with major arms companies globally, but also possessing very advanced military factories and weapons research centers themselves.
The thirteen core mercenary groups control the Mercenary Alliance, and as one of the thirteen cores, the Hand of the Devil is qualified to possess some very powerful weapons.
Anlang is just a small country, and one of the mad dog types. If the Anlang people really want to tear faces with the Dragon Country, the Dragon Country wouldn't mind mobilizing a million troops to wipe out this country…
However, under the current international situation, this is evidently impossible.
A major war is unlikely, but small-scale conflicts have never ceased. The Anlang people are like mad dogs, constantly causing trouble on the Dragon Country's side.
If the contents of this box are weapons of mass destruction and fall under the control of the Hand of the Devil, naturally there's no problem.
But once it falls into the hands of the Anlang people, the situation could become very dire… The Anlang people might do anything to achieve some purposes.
Whether Anlang is in turmoil, Qin Fang wouldn't care, even if the Anlang people all died, it wouldn't bother him… But if such a weapon were suddenly thrown into a major city in the Dragon Country and detonated, it would indeed be very serious.
Qin Fang might not be a saint, but when facing such obvious losses, he would definitely stand on the side of his compatriots…
"Shut up!"
Just as Qin Fang was pondering whether to directly distance himself from this box, Ruan Beauty, who had been walking slowly ahead, suddenly stopped. Simultaneously, she used her uniquely melodious voice to reprimand.
Indeed, even when scolding someone, such a voice was so pleasant to hear.
Qin Fang even thought that if this Ruan Beauty were to sing, she would definitely become famous all over Asia, and even possibly break into the European and American music scenes, just because her voice was so distinctive.
However, from what Qin Fang knew, the small country of Anlang, aside from the once-popular big-breasted girl Anlang Yaoyao, seemed to have produced no other celebrities…
"Wasted such a beautiful voice…"
This was Qin Fang's conclusion. Indeed, this woman's being born in Anlang was a tragedy.
But Qin Fang only had such idle thoughts, in reality, most of his energy had to be focused on controlling the surrounding environment.
Especially when, before Ruan Beauty spoke up, Qin Fang had already noticed something was amiss. His body tensed up, and he carefully held onto the box, protecting the vital parts of his body.
Ka… ka… ka… ka~~~
Sure enough, just as Ruan Beauty reproached the two guards, a group of people quickly emerged from the forest ahead, immediately raising guns "welcoming" Qin Fang and his group as soon as they appeared.
The two guards, who had been reproached by Ruan Beauty, were taken aback. Just as they processed the situation, suddenly seeing a group of people rush out, they immediately pulled out their guns and quickly moved forward, shielding Ruan Beauty behind them.
Both sides thus confronted each other gunpoint to gunpoint.
The contrast in strength between the two sides was quite apparent, with the opposing side having at least twenty guns, while Qin Fang's side only had two, making the gap glaringly obvious, completely on different levels.
However, neither side had started a direct confrontation; instead, they were locked in a standoff.
The crowd parted to open a path, revealing a young man stepping forward; he was dressed in a uniform and holding a gun in his hand.
This young man seemed to be the leader of this small group, appearing quite young with slightly dark skin, exuding a sense of authority, yet his eyes projected an extremely sinister feeling, making those who looked feel very uncomfortable.
This kind of person with thin lips indicates a cold and ruthless temperament, someone who would be heartless and unfeeling… Almost immediately as this person appeared, Qin Fang sensed a vague threat.
Although this threat wasn't significant, it was real, compelling Qin Fang to be more cautious.
"My dear sister…"
What surprised Qin Fang was that when the young man saw Qin Fang and the other three, he immediately flashed a smile, seemingly very happy to say.
Not speaking wasn't a problem; at least Qin Fang initially thought this guy might be an Anlang fellow.
But once he opened his mouth, the sound made Qin Fang's goosebumps rise; no matter how you listen, that voice felt… really overly effeminate!
This isn't an exaggeration; the voice was very shrill, somewhat like the sound of the ancient eunuch of the Dragon Country.
If this guy, when speaking, paired it with a hand gesture, Qin Fang would undoubtedly feel like this guy traveled through time from ancient eunuch times.
"Sister…"
Of course, having goosebumps isn't important; there were crucial words that Qin Fang had to pay attention to, such as this effeminate-sounding guy's address to Ruan Beauty.
Ruan Beauty was the daughter of Anlang's northern biggest warlord, Ruan Wenzhong, so this guy addressing Ruan Beauty as sister indicated that he was likely Ruan Beauty's brother...
Whether he was her real brother or a cousin, Qin Fang wasn't sure; at the very least, he must be closely related to Ruan Beauty.
After all, Qin Fang already knew some details of the plot this time, with Ruan Wenzhong entrusting such an important task to Ruan Beauty, indicating he valued this daughter greatly.
Given Ruan Beauty's significant status, ordinary people certainly wouldn't dare to underestimate or belittle her; whereas this young man opposite, despite his familiar words, his men's guns never lowered...
Just this point led Qin Fang to estimate that this guy was likely Ruan Beauty's biological brother… but the relationship between this sibling pair didn't seem very harmonious.
"I thought you had already died in the bombing just now? Didn't expect you were still alive, sister; I'm really pleased…"
This guy's words later confirmed Qin Fang's guess.
"Afraid you wish I'd die sooner?"
Looking at the young man opposite, whose voice was effeminate and whose gaze was sinister, Ruan Beauty's exquisite face showed deep sarcasm, speaking with a tone full of disdain.
"How could that be… You are my biological sister, Ruan Youlin… As your brother, how could I hope for my sister's death?"
This guy's skin seemed quite thick, being taunted and questioned by his sister without even blinking; his smile remained unchanged as he spoke cheerfully.
"Hmph…"
But Ruan Beauty clearly wasn't buying it, responding with a cold snort and sweeping her gaze like lightning across the people opposite.
The people opposite remained unruffled, as if in their eyes, Ruan Beauty and her two guards were indistinguishable from each other.
"Bastards! Who told you to point guns at the lady? Are you tired of living? Quickly lower your guns, or I will shoot you right now!"
Ruan Youlin indeed lived up to a certain level of thick-skinned persona; seeing Ruan Beauty's expression, he promptly turned around, roaring furiously at his men, appearing truly angered.
Admittedly, Ruan Youlin's performance was indeed dramatic; when he roared, it was quite imposing, with spit spraying towards the face of a little underling in front of him...
But his expression, tone, and actions seemed exceedingly contrived, full of flaws, causing even Qin Fang to shake his head in disbelief.
"This guy certainly hasn't read 'The Actor's Self-Cultivation' book…"
Qin Fang, hiding at the back, whispered sarcastically in his mind.
Of course, the strained relationship between this sibling pair was already glaringly obvious, practically displayed openly, needing only gunfire to ensue immediately. (To be continued.
