Chapter 1972: Borneo Rainforest

Lin Rui walked through the jungle with a machete, with towering trees on both sides, and it was quiet except for the birdsong. It's just that the terrain is undulating, and there are often unexpected animals running by. People have to be vigilant at all times, what is going to happen ahead.

Despite being careful enough, they ran into a bit of trouble. While opening the road ahead, the Russian Sergei was bitten by a snake. It was a black poisonous snake hiding on the side of the road, and Sergey was bitten on the foot. Reflexively, he reached out and grabbed a snake that fell to his death on a tree.

"Don't move, it's a poisonous snake. The accelerated flow of blood will speed up the poison attack. Sit down! Rose, and immediately inject him with the serum. Lin Rui pressed Sergei, turned around and shouted. The wound on Sergei's calf, although not deep, was just oozing blood. But in order to prevent snake venom, Lin Rui still injected him with antivenom.

"Hell, it's an unknown venomous snake that I don't even recognize. But based on the characteristics, it is probably some kind of viper!" Crazy Horse looked at the snake and turned his head, "There are poisonous snakes everywhere in this place, and there is a wetland in front of it, maybe more." Did we bring enough serum?"

"It's fine. Sergei forced a smile, "Hey, Yelena, do you want to see your little sister." It just kissed me tenderly. ”

"It's still a joke, which means it's okay. Fortunately, I was prepared, so I didn't let you wait to die. Lin Rui let go of Sergei and said with a sigh of relief, "Everyone be careful, if the terrain is too low, you may encounter a mire, or more snakes." ”

Antivenom contains specific antibodies that neutralize the corresponding venom. Knowing that they would have to navigate the rainforest this time, Team O2 also carried a sufficient amount of emergency serum. But even with serum, no one wants to be bitten by a venomous snake.

The team marched more carefully, and Lin Rui communicated with Cobain as he advanced, "Cobain, can you receive our location now, how long are we still from the predetermined target location?"

Cobain's voice was a little indistinct, and the jungle environment still had some effect on the machine's signal. But I can roughly hear it, "You're already moving faster than expected. Further on, you may need to raise the alert level. It was a primeval jungle, and it was likely that the hidden training base of the American army was inside. ”

"Tell us, how big of an area are we going to search?" Lin Rui said in a low voice.

"I made some technical exclusions. Finally, a rough area was delineated, which was transmitted to the actuary's computer. Honestly, I want to help you do more, but it's actually the ultimate in what we can offer. Cobain replied.

"I understand, thank you. Lin Rui turned off the communication. When he turned his head, he met the actuary who made a gesture to him. Lin Rui walked over and whispered, "What's the matter?"

"According to intelligence, we must continue to go deeper south for now. But I thought that if this hidden secret base really existed, then there should be some signs on the periphery. Shogishi whispered.

"What do you want to say?" Lin Rui said in a low voice.

"There are a lot of animals on this island, but human activity keeps them away from people. This means that around this base, there will be a noticeable reduction in the traces of animal activity. We can make some judgments based on these. "And, depending on the terrain, I think it's better for us to move to the southwest side." ”

"Why?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Because there's a river there. If this U.S. military base had been remodeled using the base of the Japanese army during the Pacific War, then the place should not be far from the river. Jiang Jian said in a low voice. "Now the U.S. military can use helicopters for transportation, but the Japanese army did not have it before, and if there is a base, it needs to be resupplyed, and the proximity to the river traditionally has certain advantages for transportation. ”

"Okay, let's do what you want first. Lin Rui thought about it for a while and nodded.

They adjusted their route, but a full day of searching yielded nothing. Until dusk falls in the jungle, the dusk sunset shines in from the forest, rendering everything extraordinarily beautiful. But the mood of the players has almost begun to be a little low, and the heat and endless green are enough to make people fall into despair.

Yelena handed the water in her hand to Lin Rui. Lin Rui shook his head, "I still have it, you drink a little more yourself, you must ensure sufficient drinking water here." ”

"Water and food are running out. We had only one day's worth of rations, and the weapons, ammunition and equipment alone were already exhausting. Yelena whispered. "How much time do we have?"

"The original mission was scheduled to be four days, but now two days have passed. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "But that's not a problem. Food can be tackled in the jungle. But the most difficult thing at the moment is the search. We're too small, and the area is too big. If you can't find that hidden base quickly, then a lot of things will get tricky. ”

"We'll be here tomorrow. Pointing to a river on the map, he whispered, "If there is water here, there will be a lot of animals, and food is not a problem." And based on our previous analysis, it is highly likely that the base is located upstream of the river. ”

"Are you sure?" Sergey asked, arranging the bandages on his legs.

"At least 70 percent of the time, but we still need to step up our precautions because there's likely to be a high level of vigilance. Shogishi replied.

"Good, let the players rest. We need physical strength to cope with tomorrow's actions. Lin Rui nodded, and he leaned wearily against a tree. But soon Crazy Horse barked, "Don't rest against the tree, the ants here are very powerful, formic acid will make your whole body itch the next day." ”

The team members rested together, and at night they were unable to light a fire for fear of exposing their targets. Not even mosquito repellent can prevent mosquito infestation. Their method is to use mud from the edge of the pool and paste it in the exposed areas of the body. His face and neck were filled with the rancid smell of wet earth.

Even Crazy Horse, a jungle expert, thought it was the worst night he'd ever had. Not even in Africa, where you can at least sleep in the bloody and corpse-stinking ruins. But here, mosquitoes literally burrow into your ears. Luckily, they all had experience and were far away from the low-lying waterholes in the jungle, otherwise it would have been even more unbearable.

Since they could not use open flames to prevent the beasts from attacking, they had to send two people to keep vigil. Then take turns to give everyone a break.
