"Hold on! We're coming......"

Lieutenant Leibold shouted as he climbed the hill ahead.

The confrontation with the hyena is a battle, not a battle. These non-verbal enemies, bloodthirsty and brutal, strong and agile, but like all beasts, they are afraid of fire and sound, and all their skills and strategies are just instincts for survival.

To defeat them, you must have both courage and resourcefulness.

As soon as the lieutenant climbed the slope, the revolver in his hand slammed, and April rushed after him, followed by a flurry of gunshots.

Urged by the sound of gunfire, Weiss and the others desperately accelerated their climb, and when they rushed up the snowy slope, there was no trace of the hyena in their sight.

The slope is still covered with woods, and a few meters ahead you can see a wide, deep ravine in front of you. A giant sequoia tree, which can only be surrounded by at least two people, is built on top of it, forming a natural single-plank bridge.

In the middle of the "single-plank bridge", a man is lying on his stomach, clinging to the trunk of a tree like a koala.

Judging by his attire, it was none other than a gendarme under Lieutenant Leiboyd. Relying on the physical superiority of primates over canines, this guy was able to escape the fangs and claws of the hyenas.

The two previous explosions were supposed to be the pineapple bullets that this guy had dropped.

Although the sound of the explosion did not drive away the surrounding iguanas, it brought him rescue.

"Lensdorf, stay there and don't move, we'll find a way to get you down!"

Lieutenant Leibald's shout made people feel relieved and had to face up to a new problem: the fallen giant sequoia, the trunk of which had accumulated a thick layer of snow, and the gendarme Rensdorf, who had climbed up and escaped, had fallen back in a place where the snow was crushed into ice and slippery, and it was very dangerous to fall back. If he continued to move forward, not to mention whether there were still hyenas on the other side of the ravine, it was still unknown whether the relatively thin trunk in front of him could withstand his body of more than 100 kilograms.

Weiss walked to the edge of the ravine, and visually measured its depth to be about ten or twenty meters. Thick snow is supposed to provide a good cushion, but who can guarantee that there are no sharp rocks underneath the seemingly flat snow?

After observing and pondering for a moment, the lieutenant exclaimed, "Everyone gather the ropes on your bodies!" ”

Searching for evidence of the Norman Empire's cross-border military activities in the complex Monamolin Mountains, these participants were armed with a variety of common tools in addition to their weapons. Despite the hasty evacuation of the camp, a significant number of people brought their own shovels and ropes.

Experienced climbers, who usually hang ropes from the outside of their backpacks for easy access, are clearly not among the crew members of the Scout Orlane. Short crew member Lyles Lane unloaded his knapsack, unbuckled it, and removed a bundle of rope from his knapsack.

At this moment, Lieutenant Leibold walked quickly to his side: "Wait, don't move! ”

Ryan looked up at him for no apparent reason.

The lieutenant sniffled: "Strange taste! What's in it? ”

Crew member Ryan paused for a moment and pulled out an oiled paper bag tied with string from his backpack.

The lieutenant frowned: "Open!" ”

Seeing Lieutenant Leebold so serious, the short crew hesitated slightly, then quickly untied the rope and unwrapped the oiled paper bag.

It wasn't until the oily paper bag was opened that Weiss smelled a fishy smell.

The short crew took out the contents and shook them off, NND, it was actually a piece of fur completely peeled from the hyena cub!

Weiss felt that the mystery in his heart was revealed in an instant!

The short crew hurriedly explained: "It's not mine, I don't know what it is, it was Mr. Karenson who asked me to help, saying that it was very important evidence, and asked me to put it in my backpack and take it back to the battleship, and said that he would give me a special reward......"

Hearing this, Lieutenant Leiboy's brow furrowed even tighter.

Karenson was one of the two intelligence officers brought in by Major Brooks, and in Weiss's impression, this guy always appeared quietly, left quietly, and always had a gloomy face, like a ghost.

"Is this the ......?" Weiss could finish his sentence when he was interrupted by Lieutenant Leebold .

"April, pick up the rope and find a reliable tree to make a loop! Everyone is taking action, and we are running out of time! ”

April quickly connected the ropes he had gathered, and found a nearby cedar tree, which was wrapped around the trunk as a buffer, with one end of the rope tied to himself and the other end of the rope being held by the others.

Despite the disturbing discovery, Weiss and his crew consciously joined in the rope pulling.

Before the rescue operation began, Lieutenant Leibold walked up to Weiss: "Dragon! You're good at archery, you're in charge of guarding, I'll pull the rope! ”

The hyena cubs were still in the custody of the short crew member Ryan, which seemed to be a meme on Weiss's mind, but he also knew that now was not the time to discuss this with the lieutenant in depth. So, he gave way to the lieutenant, removed the rifle from his back, opened the safe, and watched around vigilantly.

Apple's ordinary look, climbing up the trunk of a giant sequoia with a rope strapped, and his excellent agility and balance were immediately on display. I saw him steadily climb through the "danger zone" of more than ten meters, put the rope around his companion's waist, and then the two of them began to climb back slowly.

Unlike Eppel's calm and steady movements, the rescued gendarme Lensdorf moved stiffly, which was very worrying to watch. Fortunately, with April's encouragement and help, and the rope as a second insurance, he slowly moved over, getting closer and closer to "landing", and the danger factor also decreased......

At the last moment, the sound of "Grumman burning sticks" suddenly came from the wind and snow, and there was more than one!

Rensdorf was distracted and slipped off the trunk, and although April was unable to hold on to the trunk and was dragged down, it still served as a buffer. Led by Lieutenant Leistrong, the group pulled the ropes together, saving April and Rensdorf from falling into the ditch.

At the critical moment, Weiss also came over to help, and the group did their best to finally drag the two people on the rope up.

The gunfire in the distance continued, which made Weiss feel that something was very wrong: someone had caught the young beast of the hyena, and its fur was obviously here, with the nature of the beast, it should be eyeing its side, besides, plus the newly rescued Rensdorf, there were only 7 people on this side, and the large army over there had 17 people, could it be because the smell of blood on the seriously wounded was too obvious, causing the hyenas to chase after them? No! They are not driven by hunger and bloodthirsty instincts, but come to rescue or avenge the young, could it be...... And the hyena cubs over there in the big army? Or...... In the event that the hyena hatchlings are dead, the priority target for the hyena herd is the person who captures and takes the hatchlings away - that informant named Del Karenson?

The sound of gunfire came from the side of the large army, and Nikolai was in the middle of it, and Lieutenant Leebold certainly did not remain indifferent, but he took out a metal flask from his pocket, unscrewed it and handed it to his companion who had just been rescued, and asked impatiently, "What about Zorn?" Did you see him? ”

Lensdorf took a long sip of wine, sulked, and replied tremblingly: "Zorn is dead, and I saw with my own eyes that he had his throat bitten by a hyena......"

The lieutenant stood up and looked grimly in the direction from which the shots came. Although the number of the large force is larger than that of this search and rescue team, there are also many wounded, and most of the ships lack the ability to fight alone, and they are attacked by the hyena herd again, even if they are prepared, the situation is quite worrying!

Affected by the wind and snow, the sound of the gunfire sounded far and near, but in fact, based on the speed of the two sides, the distance between them was at most four or five hundred meters—not even that. If it's a sunny day, it only takes a minute or two for a group of people to run wildly, and in this weather with very bad visibility, it will only be ten minutes or so, and the real thing to worry about is whether they can hold on for that long......

The previous missing people, the living have been rescued, and the dead have either seen the body or confirmed the death, and the search and rescue operation can come to an end. So, Lieutenant Lebold resolutely ordered: "Go! Let's rush back! ”

Without hesitation, everyone took up their weapons, and Rensdorf also stood up, shook his arms and legs, took the rifle that April had given him, and roared, "Go! Let's kill back! ”

"Kill back!" April shouted.

Although the three crew members did not respond, judging from the determined look on their faces, they were mentally prepared to face the herd of hyenas again.
