Peerless Genius System

Chapter 547: The most important thing

“Mr. Mie, I’m so happy to see that you’re back alive!”

Sarah jumped out of the jeep. She looked genuinely happy and excitedly as she ran toward Xiao Luo and gave Xiao Luo a hug.

Xiao Luo didn’t say anything, but of course, he wasn’t about to leave either. The mission that NSA had given him was of a top priority now that Khun Sa was dead. He had to ensure this woman in front of him left this war zone safely no matter what.

Sarah quickly introducing Xiao Luo to the muscular black guy. “Captain Powell, he’s the warrior from Hua Nation that I told you guys about–Mr. Mie,” she said.

“I already figured that, Ms. Sarah!”

Powell nodded his head to show his respect and then extended his hand out to Xiao Luo. “My name is Powell Smith. Pleased to meet you, Mr. Mie,” he said.

“I’m really pleased to meet you as well,” Xiao Luo replied, shaking his hand in mutual respect.

He thought it was just going to be an ordinary handshake, but as soon as he shook his hand, Xiao Luo furrowed his eyebrows a little. This muscular black man called Powell increased his grip all of a sudden. Although stunned for a bit, Xiao Luo remained calm and increased his grip as well.

Powell had large hands, and he thought this would be enough to embarrass Xiao Luo, who looked weak. When it came to comparing the strength of their grip, he was confident that he had the upper hand, but in the next second, the color of his face changed suddenly. The other party’s hand was like that of a steel plier that clutched onto him without letting him go. That kind of strength made it hard for him to withstand, and his five fingers were squeezed together in an instant. He felt the bones in his fingers were about to crack.

“Mr. Mie, what are you guys doing?” Sarah asked. She was looking at the both of them, gripping tightly onto one another’s hand, and noticed that something didn’t seem right.

Xiao Luo laughed a little and let go of his hand. “I think I’m getting along pretty well with Mr. Powell even though this is our first meeting. It feels like I’m meeting a really old friend,” he said.

Powell quickly recovered from his surprise and pitched in. “Mr. Mie is right. Although we’re warriors from two different countries, we’re getting along so well despite it being our first meeting. How odd!”

Then, he tried his best to keep the smile on his face, but his hand was feeling sore and numb, and he was even trembling a little. He thought he could embarrass Xiao Luo, but almost made a fool out of himself, and he could barely control the look on his face now. Sarah Michelle may not have been able to tell, but the members from his special forces team could clearly see what was going on there.

“That’s right, this is so weird indeed!”

Xiao Luo smiled a little. To think that he tried to embarrass him even though they just met. This just went to show that what Ji Siying had warned him about was true, and the members of the American SEAL team didn’t have a good impression of the soldiers from Hua Nation. They were always treating Hua Nation as an imaginary enemy during exercises, and so it had conditioned the SEAL team to treat them as their enemy.

At this moment, a very tall white man stood out. He looked at Xiao Luo with burning eyes and asked, “Mr. Mie, why do you look so pathetic? Your clothes are so torn up, even the nipples on your chest are showing. Were you robbed by someone?”

After saying that, all the members of the SEAL team started sniggering.

Xiao Luo looked at Sarah and asked, “This person is?”

“Rice Broly, he’s their vice-captain!”

Sarah had only met the SEAL team members last night, but she was already familiar with every member, explaining why she knew his name. After replying to Xiao Luo, she then turned to Rice and said, “Lieutenant Rice, Mr. Mie went to Brule City last night to fight with Khun Sa’s Mercenary Corps. I’ve already explained everything to all of you clearly, so why are you asking this question on purpose? Are you guys trying to mock Mr. Mie?”

“Mock him?”

He smirked and thought to himself, wasn’t that obvious enough?

Rice raised his eyebrows and displayed a wry smile on his face. He could only say that from within but couldn’t say it out loud. He glanced at Xiao Luo and said, “No, no, we’re not trying to mock Mr. Mie. We are genuinely concerned about him. I mean, all of us here are nicely dressed, but Mr. Mie looks like a beggar you see in the streets, so we just feel sorry for him.”

“If that’s the case, then you don’t have to worry about me, Mr. Rice!”

Xiao Luo’s tone was a little bit cold. He walked straight toward his jeep and took out a new set of camouflage fatigues from his bag. Of course, he wouldn’t be changing his pants in front of all of them, but then again, it still looked pretty alright, rather like a pair of stylish ripped jeans, so he would still continue to wear them.

This Hua Nation soldier is pretty interesting, Rice thought to himself.

Rice and the other members glanced at Powell, implying for him to take note of the kind of attitude he should employ when talking to Xiao Luo.

Powell looked at Xiao Luo sternly and asked, “Mr. Mie, what’s the situation like with Khun Sa and his mercenary corps?”

“You can forget about Khun Sa and his mercenaries. You won’t have to worry about them anymore,” Xiao Luo said, as he pulled up the zipper and began buttoning up his shirt.

“What do you mean by ‘ignore’ them? Can they no longer track down Ms. Sarah anymore?” Powell asked, furrowing his brows.

Xiao Luo continued to button up the button on his neck, then he smiled and said, “I guess you could say that!”

“Mr. Mie, you’re underestimating them. Their individual combat skills are at par with ours, and their ability to track down someone is top-notch. This respite is only temporary, and it won’t take too long before they start coming after Ms. Sarah again like a bunch of hungry wolves,” Powell said.

Xiao Luo smiled a little but didn’t say anything. He couldn’t be bothered to go into the details and explain everything to these bunch of American soldiers.

He turned around to Sarah and said, “I assume you’re heading toward the coastal base that the Americans are evacuating from?”

Sarah nodded her head and replied, “Mm-hmm, that’s right!”

“I’ll escort you all the way then,” Xiao Luo said.

“I’m ever so grateful to you, Mr. Mie. If I have the chance in the future, I’ll go to Hua Nation and see you there,” Sarah said. Although she had the SEAL team protecting her and making sure that she was safe, she still felt that it was much safer to have Xiao Luo around.

“Ms. Sarah, we’re here; you don’t really need him anymore,” the lone female combatant in the team remarked.

Her facial features looked pretty good, but that was only if you looked at them separately and not if you looked at them as a whole. At first glance, she looked like a man. Her skin looked rosy, but it was rough, and both sides of her cheeks were wrinkled. Her appearance was really ordinary, and the only thing worth mentioning was her figure–she was curvy but not fat.

“Minna, Mr. Mie is very capable. If it wasn’t for him, those devils from Khun Sa’s Mercenary Corps would have finished me off yesterday. He’s also the guy that my grandpa sent from the Hua Nation to rescue me. As far as I am concerned...”

“Ms. Sarah, all you need is us. We’re more than enough!”

Minna repeated herself in a harsher tone. She walked toward Xiao Luo and looked at him arrogantly. “Mr. Mie, right? You’ve already completed your mission here. From now on, Ms. Sarah’s safety has nothing to do with you anymore. You can go now.”

Xiao Luo was stunned by her bluntness but reacted with a smile. “I listen to the orders given to me from above, and the mission they gave me was to guard Sarah Michelle. Before we arrive at the American coastal base, I won’t leave,” he responded.

He reminded himself that he was a member of the NSA. Gu Zhanguo had given him this mission as an opportunity to kill Khun Sa. Now that Khun Sa was dead, protecting Sarah Michelle was a critical mission for him, and nothing else mattered. Besides, he couldn’t stand this arrogant and male-looking like woman, and if he just did according to what she said, he wouldn’t be Xiao Luo.
