Chapter 510
Angus was frightened by the viciousness in her eyes, not daring to utter a word.
One day later, in the mountains near the border.
A group of people had camouflage paint on their faces and were wearing camouflage uniforms.
Elliot’s extraordinarily handsome face was expertly concealed beneath the camouflage
They received precise intelligence that two groups would conduct an underground transaction at the gazebo in the center of the lake 500 meters away from them.
They had been lying in wait for twelve hours:
After a while, Lionel, also with camouflage paint, stealthily approached, crouching low
“Mr. Jenkins, the targets have appeared. They should reach the gazebo in ten minutes at the latest.
Elliot’s expression turned solemn.
“Good. Inform all surveillance personnel to get into position and notify the snipers to be ready. If the transaction occurs or if there are any unusual circumstances, they can shoot as a warning, but no one is allowed to take a life. Capture them alive for interrogation.”
“Yes, sir.”

Elliot intended to change his position while standing up. However, his legs felt completely powerless, and he suddenly collapsed toward Lionel.
“Mr. Jenkins?”
All his subordinates instinctively reached out to help him.
Hearing the commotion, Lionel swiftly turned and caught Elliot’s arm.
“Mr. Jenkins, what’s wrong? Something seems off with your condition.”
Elliot took a moment to catch his breath. “It’s nothing. I probably sat in that position for too long. feeling a bit lightheaded.”
“How’s that possible?”
They were all specially trained, and such issues would not arise even after an entire day and night in a crouched position.
Lionel checked Elliot’s pulse and found it normal, but his body temperature was unusually cold.
“Mr. Jenkins, is the viis spreading again? Should we return to the lab and have Professor Y check on you?
Elliot pressed his dey lips together, finally saying, “No need. Prioritize the mission. Let’s deal with the current situation first, and we can address other issues when we return.”

“Understood.”
Ten minutes later, two groups leisurely made their way to the gazebo, each holding a black suitcase for the exchange.
The area around the gazebo was crowded with sunglasses–wearing guards on alert.
Elliot observed the situation through binoculars, leading his team to close in and tighten the
encirclement.
Suddenly, a gunshot echoed, startling birds in the nearby woods.
One of the guards positioned around the gazebo was hit and fell to the ground. The people inside the gazebo, ready for the transaction, quickly went on high alert.
Lionel was taken aback. “Did someone fire prematurely?”
Elliot’s cold gaze narrowed, pinpointing the source of the sound on the left side of the woods.
“The sound came from nine o’clock, 500 meters away. Send a team immediately to capture whoever is there. Capture them alive.”
The premature gunshot had exposed their position.
Elliot’s team was already close to the gazebo, and they had no choice but to proceed.
Both sides quickly opened fire.
Sparks flew as the chaotic battle unfolded, and the gunshots were deafening.
Suddenly, Elliot experienced a momentary ringing in his ears and a splitting headache. His body went limp to the point where he could not squeeze the trigger. Soon, his vision blurred, and he struggled to control his breathing amid the dizzying sensation.
In the end, he plunged into complete darkness….
“Mr. Jenkins!”
Watching Elliot collapse beside him, Lionel felt like he was losing his mind!
