I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week-Chapter 2524 - 2525: The Lonely Island

Dammon and his companion were strangled by the neck, their mouths covered. No matter how they struggled, they couldn’t utter a single word.

Soon, their struggles lost their threat. Blood seeped from their mouths, and they collapsed onto the ground in a twisted heap.

"Hoo~~~"

Zhang Long let out a breath. "These two must have reached C-level. Almost couldn’t suppress them."

"We need to move quickly. The situation doesn’t look good. We must figure out a way to leave. If we’re discovered, we won’t make it."

"My leg is fine!"

"If you can manage to walk a few dozen meters, then I’ll carry you once we’ve passed this stretch. We’ll be safe after that."

Zhang Long’s expression shifted, showing a twinge of guilt.

He knew very well that his injured leg was delaying Lin Yi’s actions; otherwise, Lin Yi would have already left.

After dealing with Dammon and his companion, Lin Yi and Zhang Long stripped them of all their gear to use as protection.

Lin Yi paced between the door and windows on the second-floor platform, observing the outside and searching for an opportunity.

Meanwhile, the situation outside was escalating in tension.

Dak stood in place, growing restless as he realized there was still no activity.

"Dammon, come back. I need to talk to you." Dak spoke into the radio.

But there was no response.

Huh?

Dak frowned, sensing something amiss.

In his experience, this kind of situation never occurred—unless something unexpected had happened.

"Dammon!"

Dak called out again, still met with silence.

"Dammon!"

He repeated, as if shouting into a bottomless void.

Suddenly, Dak’s nerves tightened. An ominous premonition began to surface.

The Chinese individual was very likely hiding nearby, and Dammon, who went to search, might have encountered danger.

Once this idea took hold, it quickly expanded in Dak’s mind, dominating his consciousness.

Almost instinctively, Dak looked toward the direction where Dammon had just left, then cautiously moved forward to avoid arousing suspicion.

Quietly, Dak pulled out his radio and whispered:

"All units, regroup!"

Upon receiving orders, Mammon’s people converged toward Dak.

"Does anyone know where Dammon went?"

"I just saw him with Ayobi searching this street, but I haven’t seen them since."

"De Mo and Biluo’er, you haven’t seen them either?"

"Well..."

After hearing Dak’s words, they realized their group was missing four companions.

A vague sense of unease started to emerge.

After all, if they had received an order, they would have returned immediately.

"Anyone know where the four of them went?"

"At first, De Mo and Biluo’er were assigned to search this specific section of the street. The second time around, it was Dammon and Ayobi’s turn." A bald Black man pondered for a few seconds before continuing:

"I think I saw them enter the house on the second floor, but haven’t seen them since."

"The house on the second floor..."

The Mammon people collectively turned, looking at the second floor behind them.

Dak’s eyes narrowed, revealing a cold, vicious glint.

Perhaps those two Chinese individuals were hiding inside!

"Go check it out. Be careful."

"Yes!"

...

Inside the room, Lin Yi and Zhang Long were unusually tense because the radio had just gone off.

Their hearts were pounding wildly.

These people from large organizations were all highly skilled.

If there’s no response, they’ll undoubtedly grow suspicious.

Judging by the tone of voice, the one speaking was likely a leader. He reminded Lin Yi of the person who had previously led the effort to capture him.

"We can’t delay any longer. Regardless of the situation outside, we have to go now."

Weapon in hand, Zhang Long’s eyes gleamed with a murderous intent.

"You go first. I’ll cover from the back."

"Cover what back? We go together," Lin Yi said firmly:

"We’re escaping, not breaking through. Don’t overthink it."

"Got it."

After gathering everything, the two dared not linger and prepared to leave.

Gently pushing open the door, Lin Yi steadied his emotions, trying to calm himself, then used his outfit as cover to leave inconspicuously.

But as soon as he stepped onto the second-floor platform, he saw twenty-something people coming from the opposite direction, all with guns pointed at him!

The sudden shift in circumstances caused Lin Yi and Zhang Long’s nerves to tighten instantly.

"Go, take them down!"

Mammon’s people shouted, charging forward immediately!

Sensing imminent danger, Lin Yi made a swift decision and shoved Zhang Long back into the doorway.

He pulled the trigger, unleashing indiscriminate gunfire!

Mammon’s people were caught off guard, retreating quickly to find cover.

Yet, in the chaos, several still fell under Lin Yi’s barrage.

After temporarily pushing back the enemy, Lin Yi retreated into the room as well.

Before entering, Lin Yi aimed at the point where the staircase connected to the wall.

The iron staircase collapsed with a loud clatter, making quite a commotion.

With the stairs destroyed, it was no longer easy for anyone to come up.

And now, they had enough time to prepare for a counterattack.

"Team Leader Lin, what do we do now?"

Holding his weapon tight, Zhang Long’s killing intent surged, so much so that he seemed to forget his injured leg.

"Damn it!"

Lin Yi cursed. "These Mammon people are tougher than I expected. There’s no other choice now but to take it one step at a time."

Though cornered, Lin Yi and Zhang Long found themselves in a desperate situation, while the various organizations outside appeared to revel in the chaos.

The target had surfaced, and for them, it might as well have been Christmas.

At this critical moment, the previously agreed-upon non-aggression pact dissolved by itself as everyone swarmed around the small two-story building.

"Damn it!"

Dak cursed!

He had intended for his men to sneak into the second floor and capture the targets. He hadn’t expected them to fight back!

Now everyone knew, and in the chaos, secretly extracting them was no longer an option.

Realizing the situation, the various organizations moved into action.

From different angles, they surrounded the small two-story building.

Someone shifted the collapsed iron stairs, driving a car to the stairway to use as a jump-off platform.

At this moment, Lin Yi and Zhang Long were like an isolated island surrounded on all sides, with no visible hope of escape!

"Conserve your bullets," Lin Yi whispered:

"In this situation, killing one is worth it."

"Understood. One down, no loss. Two down, big gain. Even if I die, I’ll take someone with me."

"Too soon to talk about that now. Though we haven’t been in contact recently, I trust Elder Lu has received information and may be arranging reinforcements," Lin Yi said:

"Hold on as long as you can. The longer we endure, the better our chances."
