Chapter 2: Top Secret Mission (2)

Yangzi withdraws

The muffled sound of the sniper rifle adds a sense of death to this vast desert, as the heavy bullet exits the chamber and violently rubs against the turbulent air, producing a sharp whistle, akin to the roar of a devil in the Lop Nur.

Concentrate the bodies! The captain shouted, extending his hand to throw the corpse in his grasp in front of him. Upon hearing the order, the remaining two special forces soldiers immediately began to stack the corpses in their hands, forming a small barrier.

As Zhao Ziyang ran frantically, he heard a gunshot behind him. His body jolted, but he bit his lip tightly and continued to run wildly

With a loud "bang," the reflection vanished, the sniper's scope was shattered, and the right eye became a bloody pit, half of the shattered eyeball gruesomely hanging from the face

Charge

When he spoke these words, the veins on Zhao Ziyang's face bulged prominently. The instant five comrades were shot in the head by a sniper rifle, he fell into a frenzy

Dr. Sun's assistant lay motionless at Zhao Ziyang's feet on the beach, their eyes filled with intense fear

With a single bite, Zhao Ziyang swallowed the leaves, stood up with his gun in hand, and a mad, ferocious smile appeared on his face

The burning sensation instantly coursed through the entire body, causing every pore to expand to its limit, yet unable to escape from the pores, it instead returned along the same path, incinerating every nerve and blood vessel.

They are all dead, all of them are dead

At this moment, it was afternoon, the sun hung in the west, and the light shone directly to the east. Zhao Ziyang held his breath, searching for the opposing sniper. He gently licked his cracked lips, using his tongue to roll the fine sand from the cracks into his mouth, slowly chewing it to withstand the high surface temperature and the impact of the golden expanse on his vision.

Uh ... ... Ah ... ... !

Bang

With a sudden "whoosh," the previously silent sand layer erupted, and several figures sprang out from the sand.

"Damn it, come on, hahahaha..." Zhao Ziyang laughed maniacally, brandishing a rifle and sweeping fire forward

The captain suddenly halted his steps, his eyes fixed intently on a small patch of uneven ground before his feet, with a glint in his pupils as sharp as a dagger. This patch of unevenness was certainly not formed by natural causes, but rather...

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Dr. Sun nodded slightly at Zhao Ziyang, a faint smile of relief appearing on his face.

Bang

Zhao Ziyang, who had just sprinted across two sand dunes into the flat desert terrain, found himself engulfed in despair as he saw an international mercenary group rapidly approaching him from straight ahead

The despairing sorrow surged in Zhao Ziyang's heart; he wanted to cry, but the moisture in his body prevented him from shedding a single tear: Is this top-secret mission really just a single leaf? ... A top-secret mission indeed ...

The vast desert fell into a dead silence after a brief period of chaos, with both sides quietly waiting, waiting to see who would lose their composure first

With a bang, the gunshot rang out, and an enemy that had emerged from the sand lunged at the captain, only to be struck in the forehead. Brain matter and blood flowed down through the bullet hole, and he fell heavily onto the sand.

Bang! Zhao Ziyang instantly pulled the trigger, and a 5.8 mm Type 95 rifle round was discharged, whistling towards the opposing sniper.

A splash of fresh blood sprayed onto Zhao Ziyang's neck, as the assistant's head was pierced through, the body rolling down the slope.

The sound of a sharp blade slicing through leather echoed, and a stream of crimson blood gushed forth from the pierced carotid artery, splattering onto the disordered sandy ground

Snap!

Damn it! Zhao Ziyang cursed resentfully, pulled out a handgun and handed it to Sun, his eyes fixed on him as he cruelly said: "You better choose to commit suicide; if not, I will give you a bullet!"

Come out! With the captain's roar once again, a grayish-yellow figure was pulled out by him with one hand, exposed to the air

The saber was seized by the captain's bloodied left hand, slicing through the air in an arc and precisely stabbing into the opponent's neck

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!... A team member named Mengzi viciously stabbed into the enemy's body again and again, his face stained with the splattered blood, appearing grotesquely bloody.

His method is very simple, eliminate the doctor with a doctoral degree and escape with the mission items

Armor-piercing projectile

Roaring like a beast, the captain, whose palm was pierced through, forcefully pressed his left hand down onto the hilt of the knife, his five fingers gripping the opponent's right hand tightly like steel bars

Meanwhile, the other two team members were engaged in a fierce struggle with the remaining two enemies, brutally drawing their sabers and stabbing them into each other's bodies

The captain, with a fierce expression, drew his general's sword from his left palm and charged up the mountain carrying a corpse. The remaining three team members each shouldered a corpse in front of themselves to shield against the bullets aimed at them

The task must continue, as it is his responsibility

Bang

Anti-materiel weapon

The special forces soldier at the forefront was suddenly pushed backward to the ground by a tremendous force, and a spray of blood erupted from his back, scattering in small droplets on the beach

Suddenly, Zhao Ziyang felt a discomfort in his left eye, a discomfort that immediately caused him to turn the gun towards the sand hill on his left front: the reflection, the reflection of the opponent's sniper scope!

The corpse was shattered by an anti-material sniper round, and the captain's shoulder was violently blown apart, collapsing heavily onto the ground. The gushing blood flowed into the sand, quickly absorbed by the parched earth, leaving behind a horrifying dark red stain.

The captain, noticing the anomaly, did not hesitate to open fire, shooting down the figure that had emerged in front of him. However, a team member on the left was not so fortunate. His ankle was firmly grasped by a pair of large hands that emerged from the sand, bringing him down to the ground

With a "thud," the bayonet plunged into the opponent's abdomen, twisting sharply in a clockwise motion before being forcefully withdrawn. The enemy's blood gushed out along the wide blood groove, and the intestines, caught by the serrated edge of the bayonet, were dragged out long and scattered on the ground, instantly staining the golden sand a dark red.

The sound of two unusually dull and irritable sniper rifle shots rang out, as the two team members hiding behind the corpse barricade fell heavily into the sand, their chests torn open with a horrific gaping wound.

Roaring! Suddenly, Zhao Ziyang fell to his knees, looking up to the sky and letting out a wild roar, collapsing to the ground under the unbearable weight

Xiao Ding saw the body of his assistant roll from beneath his feet, and Dr. Sun let out a trembling cry. He wanted to reach out and grab his assistant's body, but was pulled back by Zhao Ziyang.

With ambushes in front and pursuit behind, there was simply no way to escape. Zhao Ziyang pulled out the metal box from his chest and pried it open with a military knife: Mission failed, destroy mission items

"Sniper? Hmph, I am an assault soldier who specializes in rifles." Zhao Ziyang spat out the yellow sand from his mouth.

Ah Wu! ... ... Zhao Ziyang let out a beastly cry of despair, the rifle creaking in his grip.

Listen! Zhao Ziyang, with a grim expression, said to Sun, "I don't care whether you can keep up or not, you must match my pace, otherwise the next one to die will be you"

Zhao Ziyang writhed in agony on the ground, attempting to resist the searing sensation within him, akin to a volcanic eruption. He felt as though he was on the verge of exploding, the blood in his veins completely boiling, and an unknown force within him stirred restlessly, as if it were about to break free from the seal that had confined it for many years

Bang

"Drink!" A loud shout came from a teammate nearby, as his rifle was knocked from his hands by an ambushing enemy. He drew his bayonet and fiercely lunged at the enemy.

Inside the sealed metal box lies a vibrant green leaf, dazzling in its hue, radiating the luster of life throughout its entirety

Meanwhile, the sniper rifle fired suppressive shots at Zhao Ziyang, the bullets carving away a layer of the sand pile in front of him, making it impossible for him to lift his head.

A military knife suddenly emerged from the sand, piercing the captain's grasping palm

The metal box was thrust into Zhao Ziyang's hands, while Sun, with a doctor's degree, sat helplessly on the sand dune, his eyes filled with reluctance and pain

The captain threw down his rifle and delivered a powerful punch to the opponent's ribs, producing a crisp sound of bones breaking, causing the enemy to instantly hunch over.

Captain! Zhao Ziyang let out a painful howl

Puff!

I am getting old and truly can no longer run. Dr. Sun, with a doctorate, gazed longingly at the metal box and said to Zhao Ziyang: "Take this item back, you must take it back. Perhaps with it, our country's biochemistry field will leap to the pinnacle of the world. It’s just that I will never have the chance to see it again"

He saw the mercenary across from him open fire, then pass by him, the entire world filled with the piercing sound of gunfire

Get out! The captain roared, flipping over Old Xu's corpse and reaching out with his left hand towards the yellow sand.

A sound of "puff" was heard, and the team member lying on the beach revealed an expression of disbelief, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, as he heavily lowered his head

Old Xu! The captain, who witnessed his comrade being pierced through the heart by the enemy hidden beneath the sand, had veins bulging on his dark face, his expression filled with a fierce and painful rage.

A painful sound escaped from Zhao Ziyang's mouth, and he collapsed to the ground, his entire body limp. A severe burning sensation radiated from his stomach, as if it were about to dissolve him completely

Zhao Ziyang shot a deep glare at the mercenary who stood up nonchalantly after eliminating the target, then grabbed Sun's doctor's degree and rushed back in the direction he came from

Zhao Ziyang lay quietly on the sand dune, squinting his eyes while holding a rifle, waiting for the opposing sniper to take another shot

Things must not fall into the hands of the enemy; similarly, researchers must not fall into the hands of the enemy

Bang! Bang!

Bang

Zhao Ziyang squinted his eyes as he eliminated the enemy with a single shot, making a concerted effort to control the intense glare within the scope while searching for any potential enemies that might appear

The sound of gunfire echoed, yet a burst of bullets flew aimlessly into the sky

Dr. Sun's degree seems to have not heard Zhao Ziyang's words; he appears to be stunned by the scene before him, preoccupied only with his sorrow.

With a loud "slap," Zhao Ziyang struck Sun Doctor's face fiercely and shouted at him: "If it weren't for saving you, would my comrades have died? You only lost one assistant, but I lost a total of five comrades! Let me tell you, I have run out of patience. If you can't keep up, I will complete this mission in my own way!"

After the opposing sniper relocated his shooting position, he made no deliberate attempts to conceal his actions. He had locked onto Zhao Ziyang, confident of victory. He knew from the sound of the gunfire that Zhao Ziyang was a rifle assault shooter, and facing him would only lead to a dead end.
