Seeing that the time was right, Shi Yu raised his right hand and fired three shots. The rapidly spinning bullets accurately hit Will. Blood soaked his white shirt in a few minutes, and he fell heavily to the ground.

In an instant, the entire banquet was thrown into chaos because of the gunshots.

“D*mn it! There’s an assassin!”

“Secure the premises!” the guard shouted loudly.

The guests at the banquet saw the dead people and shouted and fled in all directions. The drone flies in the air began to quickly use face recognition to search for their targets.

The scene was a mess. Tables and chairs were kicked everywhere by the guests. The sound of glasses and wine bottles shattering could be heard everywhere. The floor was filled with overturned wine glasses. Cries and curses filled the banquet, and there was also the sound of someone’s long dress being torn apart in front of them.

Shi Yu followed the fleeing crowd and ran to the corner. However, it was impossible for these guests and guards to shoot at will. After all, they were all people of high society and some important people. If they died at this banquet, the drone company would not be able to escape responsibility.

However, this would add a lot of trouble to the work of the guards. The bodyguards were also looking for their boss in the crowd.

Shi Yu, who was in the middle of the crowd, did not care about this. Looking at the scene in front of him, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, smiling unconsciously.

However, it was then that the drone fly in the sky noticed Shi Yu in the crowd. Thanks to the other guests’ faces when they encountered such a situation, they all had panicked expressions on their faces. However, Shi Yu’s face did not have the slightest expression. It was as if these things had nothing to do with him.

The drone fly shot out a tiny red laser beam from its head and shone on Shi Yu’s body. The guards followed the red laser beam and instantly locked onto Shi Yu in the crowd.

Shi Yu looked at the red laser beam on his body and frowned. This was not good. It seemed that his identity had been discovered. He pushed away the fleeing guests with both hands and ran into the banquet building with large strides.

The drone fly had been locked on Shi Yu’s back the whole time. When Shi Yu passed by the stairs, he picked up a vase and threw it at the drone fly. However, the tiny machine was as agile as a real fly—its nano wings sped up, and it dodged it.

Shi Yu saw that these flexible things were not easy to deal with, so he could only speed up his pace to escape. The guards behind him also caught up. Shi Yu turned around and took out his gun. The guards could only find cover to dodge the bullets.

However, after a few gunshots, the pistol emitted hollow clicks. Shi Yu had no choice but to put away the weapon and run towards the corridor.

He walked through the various corridors, and at the same time, pushed the trolley beside him onto the ground. He also wanted to add more trouble to the guards who were chasing after him.

Looking at the drone fly haunting him from behind, Shi Yu looked at a corner in front of him and rushed over. However, suddenly, a strange voice came to him from the corner. “Observe the laser of the fly. It is nearby.”

As his footsteps got closer and closer, Shi Yu could only look at the room behind him and enter the room a second before the guards in front caught up to him. He locked the door behind him jammed a table upon it. This way, the guards would not enter quickly, and the drone fly was also blocked outside the door.

Through the peephole, Shi Yu looked at the drone fly wandering outside the door and the guards rushing over one after another. 

Looking around the room, he looked for objects that perhaps could be used as a weapon. However, Shi Yu, who was unlucky, gave the room a double-take.

This seemed to be the employee rest spot. There were three metal cabinets, a few tables and chairs, and the cards scattered on the table. These indicated that this was an entertainment room.

Shi Yu’s heart started to beat faster. Outside the door, the shouts of the guards were getting closer and closer. The drone fly was also looking for a way to break through the door.

Bang! Bang!

The guards had already started knocking on the door. The sounds were getting louder and louder. Shi Yu’s brain started to spin rapidly. However, looking at everything in the room, it seemed that there was nothing that could allow him to escape, so he threw the empty pistol on the table.

He sighed. As expected, luck wouldn’t always fall on him. This time, it seemed that he really had no other way.

But at that moment.

“Ding!”

“God-class weapon system activated.”

“Host, please hold your weapon tightly and activate it.”

Shi Yu glared at his surroundings, wondering if this was another new trick from the drone company. But how could he not have noticed it before?

But there was no one around him. Only the sound of knocking on the door and Shi Yu’s heavy breathing could be heard,

“Host, please hold your weapon tightly and activate it.”

It was the same sentence again. Shi Yu was once again sure that he was alone and that there were no technology products around him. But where did that sound come from?

Just as Shi Yu was puzzling over the matter, the door could no longer withstand the impact from the outside and started to make a cracking sound.

Shi Yu knew that once the door was knocked open, he would definitely die. However, he had no other choice now. He looked around. There was an empty pistol, a few tables and chairs, and a deck of cards.

The voice sounded again.

“Host, please hold your weapon securely and activate it.”

Shi Yu calmed himself. Under the current situation, he could only trust the voice. Just as he was about to pick up the pistol, he shook his head. A pistol was not a good choice right now. Even if he had chosen a pistol, one devoid of bullets was like a tiger without sharp teeth.

Looking at the poker cards at the side, Shi Yu walked over.

“Host, please choose…”

“Ding!”

“I can feel the host choosing a weapon.”

“Ding!”

“Card flying skill, master.”

After hearing what the voice said, Shi Yu’s body suddenly shook and his eyes widened. His eyes were filled with the craftsmanship of the poker cards—the materials used during the processing and the thickness of each card. He looked at the poker cards again and instantly felt that they were 0.3 mm thick, 8 cm long, and 5 cm wide. He could also feel the wind direction, humidity, and wind resistance in the room.

In these few seconds, Shi Yu felt as if he was suffocating. He breathed heavily, and a large amount of information flooded into his mind, making him unable to accept it all at once.

At least he could recover his senses and feel the deck of cards in his hands again. Shi Yu found that he was extremely familiar with the cards as if they were his fingers. In his eyes, poker was his closest companion.

He could now control the poker cards as he pleased. He sighed that his choice was indeed correct, and tidied up the poker cards and put them into his pocket.

As the sound of the last collision stopped, the door of the room had been knocked open, and the table behind the door had been knocked aside.

However, the moment the door was knocked open, Shi Yu was ready with two poker cards between his fingers. Before the guards could react, the two cards were already in front of him..
