Chapter 668: Pursuit
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As Lin Wanqian was being captured, Zhao Yao’s ears quivered. “Well?”
“Roly Poly, activate invisibility.”
After both of them were invisible, Zhao Yao activated Time Freeze and flashed next to Lin Wanqian.
Lin Wanqian was unconscious. A bald-headed brute carried her on his shoulders and walked with a long-haired burly man towards a van parked at the back of a small alley.
Zhao Yao activated his superpower to put down Lin Wanqian. After that, he activated Elizabeth’s power of illusion.
The eyes of the two men blurred momentarily and they saw an Asian man appear before them, carrying the unconscious woman. Both of them were hardcore gang members who kidnapped women for a living. Without hesitation, they rushed towards him.
The Asian man was easily defeated. The long-haired man grabbed the woman while the bald man punched and kicked the Asian man to the ground. The bald man stomped on his face, cursed in the local language before stomping heavily on his skull.
The long-haired man, who was carrying Lin Wanqian, said, “Enough Poison Dart, stop beating him. You are going to beat him to death.”
Poison Dart kicked the Asian man viciously on his stomach. Seeing that the Asian man had passed out, he spat and said in his local language, “Trash.”
The two men walked towards the van while Zhao Yao was behind them carrying Lin Wanqian. In fact, the burly man did not carry Lin Wanqian. They were both fighting thin air and were made to believe the illusion created by Zhao Yao.
Zhao Yao tricked them so that they would lead him to their hideout.
He could have chosen to torture them to obtain information that had to be verified, but the illusion was more effective.
However…
Zhao Yao patted Lin Wanqian’s shoulders. She was still groggy. Zhao Yao shook his head and thought, “I cannot leave her here. I have to bring her along.”
Zhao Yao activated his power of illusion and carried Lin Wanqian while following the two men. The four of them boarded the van and drove towards the gang’s hideout.
After a short while, the van stopped at a small rundown building. Zhao Yao followed both men into the building and saw three men, who were watching a soccer match on the television, waving to them.
Zhao Yao asked, “What are they saying?”
Old Cat, who was on Zhao Yao’s shoulder, said, “Discussing soccer, greeting each other and nothing of importance.”
Zhao Yao nodded. Old Cat had been doing the translation the whole time, however, Zhao Yao preferred someone local so he engaged a tour guide.
Poison Dart carried the illusion of Lin Wanqian and smiled merrily as he climbed the stairs. “Look what I have here, a Chinese woman. I am sure she will fetch a good price.”
In the house, a large bearded middle-aged man was sipping coffee and reading the newspaper. He lifted his head to look. “Chinese? Could be another type of Asian, they all look alike.
This is very rare. Our customers prefer golden-haired and blue-eyed women. Chinese women may not be easy to sell as those customers will be shopping in South-east Asia.”
“My dad went to China to study, so I am able to identify Chinese! She is definitely Chinese.” Poison Dart caressed the cheeks of the illusion of Lin Wanqian and said, “She is quite pretty, small eyes and mouth, looks like a twelve-year*old girl. Some of our customers will like her.”
The middle-aged man, Zach, shrugged his shoulders. “Send her up. Remember to check if she is a virgin that will fetch a very high price.”
Zhao Yao surveyed the entire building while Elizabeth’s Sound Field superpower engulfed the whole place.
“First floor with four men, second floor with five men, third floor with twelve kidnapped women and the bald man.” Zhao Yao looked at the twelve women and frowned. They were tied by ropes and looked groggy.
Poison Dart was stripping the clothes of the illusory woman, checking if she was a virgin.
At his instant, Lin Wanqian regained consciousness. She discovered she was being carried on the shoulders and screamed. She struggled to climb down from Zhao Yao’s shoulders.
Her screams alerted the gang members.
“Let me go! Let go of me!”
“Help! Help!”
Though Zhao Yao had activated his power of illusion to shield their ears, they were still alarmed. The middle-aged man on the first floor, Zach, frowned and beckoned his men. “Go up and see who is creating the racket. Teach her a good lesson.”
Lin Wanqian was put down by Zhao Yao. She looked around in terror and pleaded, “Please let me go. I am an only child and I have AIDS so I will not fetch any price.”
Zhao Yao rolled his eyes, looked at her pitiful face and said, “Okay, you are safe.”
“Please, I beg you!” Lin Wanqian did not believe him and pleaded, “My mum and dad have been handicapped and are without jobs or income. They depended on me to support them.”
“Enough.” Zhao Yao sighed, “I told you that you were safe.” Zhao Yao slapped Poison Dart’s face and he stepped back. He was puzzled why had taken a step back. He did not feel any pain as his sense of touch was shielded.
Zhao Yao pointed at Poison Dart and said, “Do you see that? Besides me, nobody can see you.”
Lin Wanqian was astonished. She walked in front of Poison Dart and waved her hands before exclaiming, “Really? Why is this happening?” She suspected that they could be in cahoots to deceive her.
Seeing her disbelief, Zhao Yao flicked his finger and activated his power of illusion. Lin Wanqian saw darkness and her body floated in a star-filled universe. She was scared stiff and started sweating profusely.
When the illusion faded, she looked at Zhao Yao convinced and asked, “You..are you an apostle?”
“Yes.” Zhao Yao nodded and said, “I am the international cop Zhao Benshan. I came here to exterminate the drug trafficking organization, Double-headed Vulture. I need your cooperation.”
Lin Wanqian gaped at him and thought, “I do not know how to answer!!!”
Footsteps were heard from the stairs. A gang member walked up cursing and swearing. “Who asked for help? Tired of living?”
Zhao Yao frowned as he could not delay his plan. He could not bear to see the gang members ill-treat the kidnapped women.
Zhao Yao walked to the gang member, exerted all his might and punched him on the chest. The gang member groaned and knelt to the floor, unable to say a word.
