Retired special forces ace Leo Grant is tricked into Northern Myanmar’s scam underworld. Seeing through the trap, he leads his team to strike back—raiding scam hubs, rescuing captives, and hunting down the mastermind behind it all. What starts as a setup turns into a brutal takedown, and a new beginning beyond the battlefield.

This episode follows the Hunter team as they grow suspicious of the lingering questions behind their abrupt "retirement." Lee Yaojun, along with Lee Hyun and Niu Li, analyzes and discovers that their retirement and the recruitment by Huali Company seem to be part of a meticulously planned game. Subsequently, national security agent Su Qin speaks with a mysterious superior, confirming their control over this elite team. During the airport farewell, Su Qin probes with "settling-in money," and Lee Yaojun's composure and courage impress Su Qin. Ultimately, these versatile elites from the "101 Special Assault Team," each carrying their own mission, embark on a journey overseas to execute their assignments.

In this episode, Li Yaojun, Wang Cheng, Leng Shuihan, and three other members of the 101 Special Assault Team prepare to depart for Chiang Mai, Thailand, to carry out a security mission. Before departure, team member Wang Cheng worries about their payment being embezzled. The meticulous captain, Li Yaojun, however, keenly senses from the unusually generous "settling-in fee" that the mission's danger level far exceeds the description given by their contact, Su Qin. While waiting at the airport, they encounter an old and a young police officer conducting anti-fraud awareness. The old officer warns young people about the brutal reality of telecom fraud in northern Myanmar. Li Yaojun calmly responds, dispelling the officer's concerns. However, the young officer, driven by professional instinct, harbors hostility and suspicion towards these young men with their resolute demeanor and stern gazes, foreshadowing future developments.

The hunters squad encounters an old policeman at the border. The old policeman, with his sharp eyes, recognizes their veteran status and warns the young officer not to enforce the law with prejudice. The squad members then gather at the airport, deliberately imitating "social youth" behavior to keep a low profile and giving up their priority boarding. At the airport, they happen to meet a powerful executive beauty, whom Li Yaojun finds familiar. After boarding, Leng Shuihan questions how they can leave the country before their "declassification period" is over. Li Yaojun reveals it was a special approval from their company commander and shows a call record, easing everyone's worries. The plane then takes off to carry out a secret mission.

The "Hunters" team, led by Li Yaojun, arrives in Chiang Mai, Thailand, for a secret mission. At the airport, they meet their contact, Xu Youcai (A Cai). Despite being an experienced veteran, A Cai is intimidated by Li Yaojun's unfathomable presence during their first encounter. Li Yaojun demonstrates superior tactical prowess by revealing himself alone to confirm A Cai's identity, while his four teammates, Wang Cheng and Leng Shuihan among them, remain hidden in observation. It's only upon reaching the parking lot that the team members suddenly appear stealthily, showcasing their exceptional coordination and caution. This makes A Cai realize that the team sent by "Gorgeous Company" is anything but ordinary.

Under the arrangement of contact person Ah Cai, Li Yaojun's "Hunters Squad" officially embarks on an overseas mission. Ah Cai distributes work phone cards to everyone and instructs them to report their safety to national security officer Su Qin. However, during the call, Su Qin suddenly changes the plan. Due to the volatile situation in northern Myanmar, he demands the squad abandon the original Chiang Mai project and instead head to northern Myanmar to protect key hydropower projects. Tempted by the prospect of a shortened probation period and pressured by the situation, Li Yaojun accepts the mission after seeking his comrades' opinions. The squad drives to the Qing Shui Economic Special Zone in northern Myanmar, where they get a preliminary glimpse of the complex urban landscape and the prosperous yet dangerous entertainment industry.

This episode follows Li Yaojun's "Hunter Squad" as they delve deep into Qingshui City in northern Myanmar, led by the snakehead Ah Cai (Xu Youcai). The squad members demonstrate exceptional professionalism en route. Wang Cheng habitually conducts tactical environmental analysis, even precisely pinpointing the fire control points of the "Royal Entertainment City." Their vehicle eventually arrives at the grand and imposing Hai'an Company building (with a state-owned background). However, they are not met with a warm welcome, but rather a meticulously planned show of force: a large number of armed personnel suddenly rush out and surround the squad. Facing the crisis, Li Yaojun calmly directs the situation, while the assault specialist Leng Shuihan instantly assesses the enemy's low combat capability, ready to counterattack at any moment.

Li Yaojun leads the "Hunters Squad" to the industrial park controlled by Lu Dingkun. Despite being unarmed and surrounded by heavily armed personnel, the squad members remain composed. Lu Dingkun, the boss of the park, becomes deeply interested in these fearless "veterans." After confiscating their belongings and searching them, Lu Dingkun takes Li Yaojun to a blood-scented room alone. He reveals that they were "bought" as security personnel and then tests Li Yaojun's combat prowess through force.

This episode reveals the brutal and suspicious true face of Lu Dingkun, the leader of a telecom fraud group in northern Myanmar. Under the guise of a "test," Lu Dingkun orders bodyguards to severely beat Li Yaojun and four other newly recruited "special forces" members. Suspecting them of being undercover agents, he then locks them in a water cell. Lu Dingkun is not only ruthless to his enemies but also exploits his partners to the extreme. He arbitrarily withholds payment from snakehead Xu Youcai on the grounds of goods not matching the description, showcasing his "bone-eating" nature. Finally, Lu Dingkun inspects the vast office area, paying special attention to Pan Xin, a doctoral student from a prestigious university who was tricked into joining the group and is now conducting "pig butchering" scams. This reveals the cruel reality of the criminal group, which specifically targets and deceives highly educated individuals for precise fraud.
