Universal Mercenary System - Chapter 17

Opening his eyes, Lin Feng got out of bed and stretched his body momentarily before heading to the washroom to have a quick shower. After a while, he got out and began drying his body with a towel while checking his Status.

He was quite happy with his growth over the past year or so since he got the System. Smiling happily, Lin Feng went downstairs and began making a simple breakfast for everyone, which they all ate in the basement like usual.

A while later, he sent Lin Min to school and by the time he got back home, he only had enough time to sit on the sofa for a few minutes before he was given a mission by the System.

[A new mission has appeared. Assist the Lu family in destroying the base of the Blindfang Assassins.]

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows when he saw what his mission was. He didn’t expect it to be him helping a military family in eradicating an assassin group. Nevertheless, Lin Feng put on his outfit and used Stealth, turning invisible and jumping across several roofs.

By the time he got to the place the Lu family is fighting the Blindfang Assassins, he found them to have already begun fighting, so he checked his map to find the red dots and brought out two daggers from his Inventory and dropped down from a nearby roof, gliding towards the assassins.

The instant he landed on the ground, he leapt towards a nearby assassin and thrust both his daggers into his head and chest, killing him instantly. He jumped out of the way from a few bullets that were shot at him, narrowly dodging them.

He hid behind a thick wall nearby and frowned, throwing one dagger back into his Inventory while retrieving a pistol from it instead, as he saw that nearly all of the assassins had guns on them, and he didn’t want to take any unnecessary risks in the fight.

He jumped out from behind the wall and began shooting at a few nearby assassins, instantly killing them with one shot each. He shot a few more assassins, and when he was about to shoot another, he only got a click sound from his gun, causing him to frown in annoyance.

He kicked up a dead assassin that was beside him and used his body to block a few shots fired at him while he ran behind another wall, dropping the body he took out another clip and swapped it with his empty one.

He looked at his map and saw there was only another 30 assassins left, while there was about 30 or 40 green dots, which are most likely the Lu family. Lin Feng was about to go back out and kill some more assassins when his expression underneath his mask changed and he hurriedly used Inner Energy to protect his organs and crossed his arms in front of his chest.

A second later, an explosion sounded directly where he was standing a moment ago which flung him backwards a few meters, stunning him. He shook his head and regained his awareness as he quickly sprinted from his spot and ran towards a further wall, hiding himself behind it.

He instantly felt pain all over his body and slumped down while leaning against the wall, and he looked down to inspect his body. His arms were both intact, but they were burned by the explosion and had bleeding wounds from the grenade shrapnel.

As for his organs, he managed to block them with Inner Energy in time so there was no damage to them. He was only damaged on the surface of his body, such as his arms and legs, but otherwise he was fine.

Letting out a sigh of relief, Lin Feng used his Inner Energy to speed up his vitality and the injuries on his arms and legs quickly healed up, finally letting him relax. Although this isn’t a deadly injury, with the current situation he is in, having injuries is always dangerous.

Now that he has healed from his injuries, he suddenly felt angry and annoyed. He didn’t expect that these assassins would actually have grenades! If they threw more than one, such as two or three, he would of taken damage on his injuries even with his Inner Energy protection.

Extremely annoyed, Lin Feng checked his map and saw there were still about 20 red dots left, and he smiled grimly under his mask. He put his gun and knife hack into the Inventory and brought out his sword, holding it tightly.

Even though he is a lot stronger now, he is still not capable of directly taking on multiple guns, so he didn’t want to use his sword and decided to pick the assassins off with his pistol, but that grenade made him change his mind.

He was going to make use of all his strength and Inner Energy to kill all the remaining assassins as quickly as he could, so that there was no more close encounters like that grenade. Laughing eerily, he activated Stealth and disappeared from his spot, rushing back towards the assassins who thought he was dead.

7 of them were grouped together behind cover while occasionally firing back at the Lu family people, so Lin Feng targeted them first. He appeared behind them, and like a ghost, he raised his sword and slashed out multiple times towards the assassins.

The 7 assassins suddenly had their faces contort as their bodies were split into pieces while Lin Feng appeared behind them out of nowhere. Smiling savagely under his mask, Lin Feng dashed towards a nearby assassin and pierced his chest with his sword, causing blood to spurt everywhere.

As of now, the remaining assassins only amounted to 8, and all of them were looking at him with horrified expressions on their faces. They instantly began firing at Lin Feng, but he disappeared from his spot and silently appeared behind another assassin, his sword separating his head from his body.

3 assassins were shot down by the Lu family, leaving only 4 alive. Two of them couldn’t take it anymore and shot themselves in the head, while Lin Feng swiftly cut the other two in half. He looked towards the Lu family members who were on the opposite side of him, and when they flinched while looking at him, he disappeared while using Stealth once again.

A few minutes later, he was back home and sitting on his sofa with a relaxed smile, as if he didn’t just conduct a slaughter a few minutes ago. After sitting for a few minutes, he was finally notified of his mission being completed.

[You completed the mission You obtained 4 Stat Points and 150 points.]

Smiling, Lin Feng stretched his body a bit while standing up. He thought for a while and then put one Stat Point into both intelligence and wisdom, while putting the other two into agility.

[Intelligence increased from E+ > D-]

[Wisdom increased from E+ > D-]

[Agility increased from D > C-]

He looked at the time and saw it was already noon, so he went into the kitchen and began cooking lunch for the group of kids in the basement, and he took it down there after he finished making it. The kids, him and Lin Fu all sat at the table eating the lunch for a while, and then they all began training.

Lin Feng trained with them for a few hours before he left the house to go pick up Lin Min, who instantly joined them in training once they got back. After training for the next few hours, everyone took a break while Lin Feng cooked dinner, and they all relaxed while eating.

Lin Feng took the exhausted Lin Min to their room and placed her onto the bed, while he sat on the edge of the bed checking his Status again to see the changes.

Satisfied, Lin Feng yawned and looked towards the sleeping Lin Min and shrugged, joining her on the bed and falling asleep soon afterwards.
