The Wife of Hades

Chapter 149 - The Fight

Shen Liya turned to face him, talking in a soft voice, "How many men did you bring?"

Mo Han wasn't sure if Shen Liya was truly trying to help, but he had no other choice now, "A lot."

He had brought several planes of people this time, everyone that was available under the HLX right now. They were all waiting in the forest outside, but it didn't seem of any use, unless. . .

Shen Liya nodded, talking very seriously as Mo Han listened, "Leave but stay in the forest patch outside. I will get An Luxia out and tell my uncle she escaped. Have your men ambush outside and there will be a fight."

  Mo Han listened intently, not sure if he could trust her, but this was his only chance now. 

"Then, I will go look for the cure. I am certain my uncle has it."

  Mo Han gulped as Shen Liya finished her plan, and he asked, "Why? Why are you helping me?"

  Shen Liya looked down, her shoulders sagging as she replied, "I figured some things out. Don't ask too much about it. Do you trust me or not?"

  Mo Han had no other choice, and he nodded, placing his hand on the door handle, "I do, thank you."

  Then, he pushed the door open and stepped outside, closing it behind him.

"Mo Han!" An Luxia screamed when she felt the familiar arms around her.

Mo Han held onto her tightly, but after a while, he seemed to realize the situation they were in, and he quickly grabbed onto her hand, pulling her away from the building and towards the thick trees in the forest.

As they walked, Mo Han pulled out a gun and loaded it, handing it to her, "Run, okay? Just keep going straight ahead, and the forest should end at some point. There are helicopters that all belong to me. Get on one and leave, understand?"

  An Luxia nodded, "Then what about you? Are you not going to leave with me?" 

Mo Han stopped, patting her on the head as he was handed another handgun, "I will be going soon. I need to get the cure first."

  An Luxia gulped and nodded, "I love you."

  Mo Han stared at her blankly for a quick second before a smile broke out on his face, "I love you too."

  Then, An Luxia turned around to run but just at this moment, the door to the building burst open as tons of people ran out at once. Hearing this, Mo Han whipped around in surprise, not expecting for Mo Siyan to be this quick.

Didn't Shen Liya say she would give them some time? An Luxia also realized that they were late and it must have been because she took too much time to find the door. The people all ran out holding guns and they knew that the fight had begun.

With no other choice, Mo Han pulled An Luxia close to him, saying, "Hide behind me! Be careful!"

An Luxia stayed closely behind him as the sound of guns firing filled the forest, scaring flocks of birds away. The shooting sound continued, filling An Luxia's ears and head as she saw people collapse one by one.

--- In the Building

Shen Liya quickly locked the door to Mo Siyan's office and she could hear groups of people running out as she ran towards Mo Siyan's desk and began searching for the cure.

She did not know if Mo Siyan would keep the cure in his office, but there seemed to be no other place. She knew that he had the cure because the scientists had created it a while ago. She just did not know where he put it.

She pulled open the cabinets, throwing out all of the files and everything inside, not caring about making a mess. There were a lot of cabinets and places to put something in the large office, and Shen Liya went through each one closely, still not finding anything.

She had flipped through all of the cabinets in the desk, but there was nothing there. She turned around and ran over to the drawers near the table, beginning to pull them out one by one.

---

Mo Han stayed hiding behind trees, mostly because An Luxia was behind him. He shot several times and An Luxia managed to shoot a few times as well, but she missed all of them. Soon enough, she stopped shooting, thinking that it was only wasting bullets.

Mo Siyan was also standing in the back, under the protection of his workers. It was a complete mess, and it was difficult to tell who was on who's side as the shots fired back and forth.

---

Shen Liya looked up at the clock, beads of sweat falling down her forehead until her clothes. She did not know how much time she had, but she could not find it!

  She had gone through all of the possible cabinets in the office, and the floor was piled with random papers and other things she had found in the office. There was nothing that seemed like a cure at all. 

She frustratingly stood up, leaning back against the bookshelf helplessly as she took shallow breaths. She was tired from digging through all the things as well, and there was nothing she could do.

As she closed her eyes, she suddenly remembered seeing Mo Siyan standing at the bookshelf, holding onto a book. The memory slowly flowed back into her brain as she saw herself walk into the room, seeing Mo Siyan holding a blue book.

When he heard the door open, he immediately put the book back, turning around to see Shen Liya. He had been very mad at her for not knocking, and back then, Shen Liya had thought something was wrong but she did not think too much about it.

She immediately turned around, beginning to scan the hundreds of books on the large bookshelf in the back of the office. She pulled them out of the shelf one by one, opening it and flipping through the pages before throwing it onto the ground.

As there were rows of books, she knew this was not efficient. She wouldn't be able to find it until tomorrow, and even if she did, the cure might not even be inside. She thought back and remembered that the book was likely blue, and she began searching through the blue books.

Time passed by and she could not hear anything, as everyone had probably gone outside. She did not know how long Mo Han could hold up for, and she had to hurry. She grabbed onto another blue book, accidentally pushing the book next to it off of the shelf, and it dropped onto the floor with a weirdly low crash.

Shen Liya flipped through the book in her hand quickly and turned to throw it onto the ground, and her eyes landed on the book that had fallen onto the floor while she was pulling the other book out.

  The book was red, and it had a large spine that read 'Dictionary' on it. However, it was obviously not a dictionary, as when you opened it up, you saw a safe. There was a code on it and Shen Liya guessed that it was probably empty inside to hold stuff.

  It was a three number code and she could not think of anything. She tried his birthday, three zeroes, 1-2-3, nothing worked. She thought back and remembered the day when she had first given An Luxia the Trap.

Giving it one last try, she put the numbers in. There was a click as the safe opened and indeed, it was an empty space to put stuff in and there was one tiny bottle inside.

She grabbed onto the bottle, shaking the single pill inside of it and immediately ran out of the room, pleased to see that there was no one inside. She ran up the stairs and pushed the door open to the forest.

Mo Siyan seemed to realize that he was losing. He saw as his men fell down one by one, and he clenched his fists together as he held onto his gun, also shooting at people.

He was not prepared for this fight, as he did not think that Mo Han had brought so many people. This was the main base in Country A, but there were people in the Si Organization in other parts of the country and world right now.

They were outnumbered by Mo Han's people 3 to 1. Soon enough, most of his people had collapsed onto the ground and only a few were fighting.

Just then, the door behind him opened and he watched as a figure ran out. Before he could get a good look, he watched as the figure ran through the bullets and towards the other end of the forest where Mo Han's people were.

He narrowed his eyes, wondering who the person was. It seemed like a woman. Was it An Luxia? The woman stopped next to a tree and that's when he was able to clearly recognize who the person was.

Shen Liya!
