Chapter 36: Among the Praying Mantis and the Yellow Sparrow
"Sniper!" We shouted and hid ourselves.
I hid next to a large tree and looked at John to my right. John hid in a dense bush and did not move, he looked down at Walker behind him and said, "See where it is?" ”
Walker didn't move casually, just said softly, "No." Didn't see it at all. But from where Ariel was shot and where he fell, the man should have been in the direction of us at eleven or twelve. ”
I looked at Ariel, who was lying dead on the ground, and he was shot in the head, and his skull was lifted open, especially the back of his head turned outward. Blood had already flowed all over the ground, and it was splashed almost a meter away in the instant after being shot.
"Gypsies. Gypsies, don't look at it. John didn't look at me, but he was talking to me.
I hid behind a tree and whispered, "What? ”
"What do you tease him with? Look where he is. John said.
I looked at my stuff when Walker said to me, "Hey. Use your backpack and slowly poke out to show your back. Be careful with your hands, though, and don't hold your bag with your guns. ”
I nodded, took off my backpack, and carefully carried my gun out of the tree.
"Slow down, and make it seem like you're accidentally showing your back." Walker whispered.
"Damn! I know. I muttered that no one would want to do something like that that with a bullet, but I slowly stretched out a little bit as he said, and stopped and collected it again. By this time, Walker had already begun to look through the scope to see the situation on the other side.
"Stick out a little more and tease him a little more." Walker said softly.
I sent the bag out again, but there were no bullets on the other side, except for the sound of gunfire from the fierce battle.
"I can't tell where he's hiding." Walker said as he continued to aim.
John let out a long sigh, "Forget it. Gypsies, take back your bag. With smoke grenades, throw in the direction of eleven o'clock to one o'clock. When the smoke cleared, everyone dispersed and walked forward. After that, it's up to luck, Walker you walk behind, and it's best to spot him and kill him before he kills us all. ”
"Understood!" I answered, took the smoke bomb that John had thrown me, I carried the bag, and a few of us threw the smoke bomb in the direction John said. It didn't take long for the smoke to rise, but there was no wind in the jungle, and the smoke dispersed slowly.
After waiting for a moment, Walker spoke, "Almost." ”
John nodded, "Let's move together in a moment." Except for Walker, how do you think you can kill him? ”
"Understood." Walker agreed.
“3、2、1。 Let's go! John let out a low growl and we rushed out of hiding, and I rushed out toward twelve.
At the very moment when we rushed out of the smoke cover, the other party's gun went off again, and then Walker's gun went off again. I sprinted to a tree in front of me, and when I looked back, another man in the group had fallen to the ground on the way out.
"Did you hit him?" I shouted to the rear.
Walker didn't reply, which meant that he wasn't sure if he had hit the man. John, who was not far from my left hand side, looked at me and said, "Keep using smoke bombs." Keep moving. He's in a little direction. ”
"Understood!" A few of us pulled out smoke bombs again, looked at each other, and threw them out. When the smoke rose again, we rushed out again, but this time they didn't shoot until we could almost see him in hiding. Could it be that he was already dead after being hit by Walker?
But when we passed, all we saw was a flattened meadow, a bullet casing, a hat, and a camouflage. However, there was blood on the ground, which indicated that Walker had injured the man.
"Let him run. Presumably he ran while the smoke was rising, and the smoke not only covered us, but also covered him. I looked at John and said.
John didn't seem to care, just sighed and said to us, "Chase after us." Be careful, though, I don't know if this guy will be ambushed somewhere and ready to continue to shoot our cold guns. ”
We rounded the sniper's ambushed dirt bag and followed the crushed grass and footprints along the way. After chasing about four or five hundred meters away, I saw the branches in the trees in front of me shaking, and my first reaction was already about to catch up with the sudden return of the rifle by this guy, and just as I was about to find cover, I only heard a gunshot, and the bullet hit the trunk of the tree on my right side, and the flying sawdust pierced directly into my arm.
I hurriedly ducked behind a tree, while John and the others, who had caught up at the same time, shot in the direction of the man. I pulled the shards of the tree trunk, about ten centimeters long, out of my right forearm. It wasn't deep, it was just a little flesh wound.
John passed by and looked at me, and when he saw that I was fine, he motioned for everyone to speed up. I stood up and chased after him again, and soon I found the location where the man had fired, and there was a M40A5 sniper rifle he had discarded, with blood on the ground and on the leaves next to him. It seems that he had been wounded again in John's shooting, and the injuries were too big for him to carry the long, heavy sniper rifle. But in my opinion, this is actually a serious mistake, because once he discards this gun, he loses his containment, so that we can chase him down without any scruples, and of course he may have other pistols, but by the time this is used, he will basically not be able to escape.
So we sped up, not only to take out the Mexican sniper who was supposed to be part of the wizard's direct team, but also because there was a fierce battle in the team that was suspected to be Pablo at the sound of the gunshots. It is likely that the wizard has bitten them again.
Soon I saw the sniper who was running for his life. His gait seemed a little shaky, and he stumbled forward through the trees. He may also have realized that we were near, and he glanced back and shot us twice with the pistol in his hand. But there was no threat at all. Our shooting was much more threatening, and whenever he stopped slightly, we fired, and several times we had to stop and take cover.
Just as we felt like we were about to catch up, there was a sudden movement in the woods on the side of the sniper. The first to be noticed was Walker, who shouted to hide, and as soon as he finished speaking, gunshots rang out from the woods, and the bullets flew straight at us, and we were caught off guard and lay down for cover.
"Damn. How many people are there? John looked at Walker Road.
Walker adjusted his posture and lifted the M200 sniper rifle up to look at us and said, "I don't see clearly, but there should be only a few people." ”
John nodded, and gestured to me and the other two to go to the right for a while, and he led the people to the left, and Walker stayed in the middle, sniping at the target at any time.
After we understood, John suddenly raised his hand, and we all got up and ran out in our respective directions. The opponent obviously hesitated, and after shooting, they also fought separately, and the firepower was very scattered. Only then did I hear a gunshot from Walker, followed by another one. After two gunshots, the shooting on the other side stopped, but this was not because the other party was all dead, but because they were afraid of the sniper rifle, they all hid.
"Gypsies, continue to surround you from the right side. Walker kept an eye on them, not letting them run. John's voice came from the earphones in his ear.
The other two and I each responded, and I slowly touched the right side of the head. The other party has not moved, and has not even moved if he continues to shoot. It made me feel like they were waiting for something.
Just as I hesitated for a moment, John's sudden burst of intense gunfire erupted, and at the same time John's shout came from his ears, "Walker! Support me. I'm in your 11 o'clock direction. ”
As soon as John's words fell, the man hiding there moved. They rushed out of hiding, and I immediately raised my gun and fired. Three of them ran out, two were hit, one fell to the ground, and the other staggered and crawled into the woods after the one who had not been shot.
"John, should we support you or continue to chase?" I asked via the communicator.
"Keep chasing. Don't let them go, we'll have enough of Walker for support. Don't stop, keep chasing. John replied.
I also know that these people who appear are nothing more than to delay our time, as long as they can hold us back and slowly consume us, then we will become more and more passive, and there will be more and more people around. At the moment, there are not many people at the moment, just because we are a little distance from the place where the SDF has been defeated, and these are just the vanguard of the pursuit or the team that cooperates with the wizards to round up Pablo.
I and the other two continued to chase after us, and the two men running in front of us turned around and fired at us from time to time. These two people don't include the sniper from before, maybe the sniper has already withdrawn before they intercepted us. But I think I can definitely catch up if I follow this direction, and generally a wounded person does not have the guts and courage to go around in circles with the person behind him, and the pain and fear will force him to go towards his own people and pass by the nearest path.
But we didn't have to go far before the two suddenly disappeared from our view. We had to slow down, because people can't disappear out of thin air, and the only explanation is that there should be a place ahead where people can hide, such as a depression that is significantly lower than this area. If they jump in, I'll have to be careful that they don't take the opportunity to change direction and bypass us, but lie in ambush and prepare to attack us, after all, there are only three of us now, and although they are one less than us, they can kill us all in an instant if they seize the opportunity.
