My Perfect Female CEO

Chapter 1364: The Wrong Way to Celebrate

In the deserted building, the members of the Spine Team were stationed around, with some members on guard while others rested or passed the time by playing cards and drinking.Outside the building, the heat wave was astonishing, with high temperatures.

Although the members on guard were very tired and the weather affected their condition, they remained at their posts, showing no negligence as elites.

Suddenly, shells appeared in the sky, reflected deep in their eyes.

Upon seeing this scene, the members thought they were hallucinating and blinked before the increasingly dense shells grew larger, leaving them dumbfounded.

With their minds buzzing and confused, they couldn’t comprehend what was happening and were unable to react.

"Boom! Boom!!"

A series of violent explosions occurred in an instant, earth-shattering and shocking everyone around.

Among the guards, those who noticed the incoming shells were left staring wide-eyed as they turned into nothingness. Shells landed on them, and before blood had a chance to splatter, it was engulfed by immense dust and debris, while those who didn’t see the shells vanished into oblivion with no reaction as death approached.

Inside the building, scenes of drinking were frozen in time, the card players were frozen too, and those resting were similarly frozen.

There was no resistance, no time for any emotional upheaval; they died in ignorance.

The fire wave swallowed their bodies, with fragments of the building flying around mixed with fragments of bodies.

It seemed as though the entire world went silent for a moment, an eerie dead silence.

What followed was destruction; the deserted building was instantly demolished, the area nearby became ruins as well.

Strong explosives destroyed all targets as the shells’ explosions erupted densely.

Inside and outside the building, it turned into flat ground, no life could survive within, and all members of the Spine Team died.

Except for two five-man combat teams who weren’t inside the building and thus escaped disaster, everyone else died.

One spared combat team was beside White Whale, and the other was the team that had pursued Zhang Kui.

A hundred-man team was reduced by ninety percent in an instant; this level of casualty was immense for the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps.

If Hawk, Sea Horse, and Grizzly Bear knew what had happened, they would be furious enough to spit blood.

If other members of the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps knew, morale would certainly drop, and the fighting spirit would diminish.

Indeed, the first to be infuriated enough to spit blood was naturally White Whale, the second captain of the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps.

At this moment, this second captain smiled, thinking to himself: "Finally got rid of this emerging, formidable enemy, that’s wonderful."

White Whale genuinely smiled, and Amir, the leader of the Spine Team, also showed a content smile.

They were somewhat complacent in their joy, seeing the scene of wreckage, there was no reason not to be happy.

"Haha, hahaha, even if the enemy had a bronze head and iron arms, they have become wreckage, dead utterly." General Hawan laughed and said: "This puts an end to the shame in my heart. If the enemy wasn’t strong and formidable, I wouldn’t want them to die so easily. I would have caught them so they couldn’t live nor die."

"Congratulations General, you can finally wash away the shame and finish off the thieves completely." The deputy complimented.

The plane’s reconnaissance reports were within their field of vision, and after Zhang Kui disappeared, he must have secretly hidden in the deserted building. This was indeed Zhang Kui’s final resting place, hence it’s certainly where the others were hiding too.

General Hawan and White Whale believed this was the resting place for the seven targets, with no other possibilities.

If General Hawan and White Whale weren’t so eager to kill the opponent, perhaps they might have exposed a flaw.

Unfortunately, this opportunity was lost, and the calamity faced by the Spine Team descended just like that.

"General, thank you for helping us eliminate the thieves and restoring your honor." White Whale sincerely spoke.

"This is what I should do, but Miss White Whale has worked hard, without even getting the chance to strike, merely witnessing the opponent’s death." General Hawan couldn’t hide his joy and pride.

"No matter whose hands the enemy dies in, it’s a good thing; as long as the enemy is dead, everyone can feel at ease." White Whale replied.

"Indeed, those seven enemies are extremely formidable, their sniping skills are first-class." General Hawan contemplated aloud; now he could finally relax, previously he truly couldn’t rest easy.

"Deputy, let the reconnaissance plane circle again to see if there are any fish that slipped through, though given this situation, it’s impossible for anyone to be alive. But to prevent any unforeseen incidents, you should still be vigilant and also send a team over there to see if there’s anyone whose face can be recognized, and if we can deduce their identities." General Hawan arranged accordingly.

"Yes, General, I will carry out your orders right away." The deputy respectfully said.

"Miss White Whale, shall we celebrate?" General Hawan extended an invitation.

"Sure, I wouldn’t dare refuse such kindness from the General." White Whale responded courteously.

While the deputy was handling the aftermath, General Hawan was already hosting White Whale and others to celebrate this hard-won victory grandly. This achievement deserved celebration.

Music wafted, and wine glasses jingled.

General Hawan was in high spirits, having eliminated a major threat, he was ecstatic beyond measure.

He deeply understood the enemy’s power, and having been held hostage by the enemy, it was a grave insult to him. To wash away the shame, he hid without daring to go out, all with the purpose of eliminating the threat.

Now, this wish was finally fulfilled, General Hawan was extremely happy.

"Miss White Whale, I toast to you." General Hawan’s face was flushed with excitement.

"I shall toast to you, General." White Whale politely replied, her smile unwavering.

She signaled to Amir and others, adding a few more people to flatter General Hawan, along with more people to toast to him.

General Hawan’s deputy came to report that no anomalies were found, and a team had been dispatched to the target location as they conveyed the message. By this time, General Hawan was already nearly drunk.

General Hawan was under a lot of pressure, now he craved relief and release.

White Whale coaxed General Hawan for a while, then supported him to the bedroom.

The deputy wanted to step forward to assist but was stopped by White Whale.

Seeing General Hawan and White Whale close together, the deputy exhibited an ambiguous expression.

The deputy didn’t know that White Whale’s eyes were filled with murderous intent.
