Chapter 0269: Blocking
We are mercenaries, where are the friendly troops on this battlefield, according to the Grim Reaper, all the people we encounter on the battlefield are enemies except for the group of comrades around us.
There were constant gunshots behind us, and the enemy was chasing after us like bugs, and we didn't even have time to stop and look at the map, panicking like headless flies, and running for our lives.
After running for nearly half an hour, we finally opened a little distance from the pursuers behind us, we stopped at the bottom of a hillside, and after the captain took out the electronic map to check the coordinates, he said: "Turn over the hill in front, walk forward for two kilometers, and then pass through a forest, and you will not be far from the holy city." ”
"Captain, we're going back like this?" I asked reluctantly.
"And what do you want? Turn back and continue to fight hard? The captain glared at me.
I was speechless, it was a blessing in misfortune to be able to escape from the siege, it was obviously impossible to go back, but I really felt like I was going away, I didn't gain anything from this trip, and I still hung up a brother, when did Caesar's mercenaries be so embarrassed.
"Don't worry about the assassin, keep this account in mind first, and then slowly calculate it later!" The shark patted me on the shoulder and said.
"Hmph, I'm not in a hurry, it's just that he thinks it's a wretch!" I snorted, how depressed I was in my heart.
Speaking of which, I suddenly realized a problem, so many of us have left the Holy City, and Organization X will not take the opportunity to attack the church, right? If the mastermind behind all this was really Alan Thomas's bastard, then the church must have been in his calculations.
"Captain, there's no going to be a problem at the church, right?" I was terrified for a moment when I thought of this possibility, it didn't matter if we didn't kill Organization X, if we lost even the church, our mission would be a complete failure.
"The church has star titans, they will not have an accident if they guard it, what we have to do now is to save our lives and walk out alive." The captain put away the map, glanced at the hill in front of him, and waved his hand: "Guys, we have to rush out of the battlefield before dawn, time and pursuers do not allow us to rest and continue to advance." ”
The group of people did not even breathe and began to flee for their lives, and climbed over the hill in front of them, and below was a wasteland, about two kilometers or so, and according to the map instructions, they reached the edge of the woods, and then through the woods, they could see the road to the holy city, and it was safe to get there.
Before dawn, we came down from the mountains and walked into the wasteland in front of us, surrounded by desolate weeds, which looked similar to the African savannah, but a little smaller, and we could see the end at a glance.
After walking forward for more than ten minutes, I saw a long black shadow in the distance, which was the last jungle, and I walked through it to reach home.
The brothers' faces were much lighter, and at this moment, there was a burst of gunfire from the bottom of the hill behind them, and it seemed that the pursuers had crossed the hill and chased them to the edge of the wasteland.
I glanced back and said with a smile: "Are these bastards really patient, they haven't given up after chasing for so long." ”
"Maybe these people are like us, and if they can't complete the task, they won't have the money, otherwise why are they so desperate?" The wolf shrugged and laughed from the side.
"You're saying they're mercenaries too?" I looked at the wolf curiously.
"God knows, it's not from Organization X anyway." The wolf glanced behind him, a sinister smile on his lips.
"Why are you smiling so obscenely, and you're happy to see them coming after you?" I glared at him and said, this guy even sneered like a cheap skin.
"Of course he was happy, and we had a bunch of miscellaneous people along the way!" The monkey came over and said with a grin, hugging the wolf's shoulder.
"Gifts? What gift? Why didn't I see it? I looked at both of them curiously.
The wolf took out a thing from his backpack and threw it over, I took it, fuck, M2 anti-infantry mines, these two goods planted mines halfway, which is enough for this group of mongrels to drink a pot.
"When did you bury it, and why didn't I see it?" I gave the mine back to the wolf, I have a shadow on this thing, I was almost killed by it in the jungles of Southeast Asia last time, and now I think about it.
"If you see it, how can you show that we are highly skilled?" The monkey looked smug.
"You two bastards, secretly planting a mine in front of me, what if I step on it?" I've been at the end of the line just now, and if I step on it, I guess all the bones and scum will be blown up by now.
"It's going to be a sad story, and you can only blame it on bad luck." The wolf looked like you deserved it, and I was so angry that I raised my leg and kicked him in the ass.
Before my feet could be retracted, there was a loud noise behind me, and a ball of fire rose in the distance, and sure enough, someone stepped on the mine, this anti-infantry mine had 64o shrapnel in it, once it exploded three hundred and sixty degrees without dead ends, it was extremely lethal, and it was all over the grass, without any shelter to cover it, and you didn't need to look at it to know that the enemy side must have suffered heavy losses.
"Well done!" Hearing the explosion, everyone turned their heads, looked at the fire in the distance, and stretched out their thumbs to the wolf, not to mention the smugness on the wolf's face.
"Don't look at it, the danger hasn't been lifted yet?" The captain turned around and reminded everyone.
The group continued to walk forward, weaving through the grass, and the wolf and I walked at the end, holding the mine just now, and a pair of thief eyes, constantly scanning the ground.
"What are you looking for?" I asked curiously.
"Find a place to bury mines!" The wolf said casually.
"You can dig a hole yourself." I gave him a blank look and said.
"That's a lot of trouble." As we spoke, we passed a position where the weeds were extremely overgrown, barely visible of the ground, all obscured by the grass, and a group of us walked past it, leaving a clear trace.
The wolf smiled, set the mine into a pine fuse, threw it in the grass, and then picked up a handful of wild grass and put it on it, clapped his hands and said, "It's done!" ”
"Is this the thunder you buried? I wonder if the enemy chasing after me is blind. I looked at him in disbelief.
"Sometimes the more obvious things are, the better, and hiding too deep makes people be careful." What the wolf said sounds quite reasonable, but if you think about it carefully, it doesn't make sense, this is a landmine, if someone sees it, who will step on it.
But the facts are in front of me, that is, there are staring eyes to step up, and I can't accept it, I shook my head helplessly, turned to look at the forest not far ahead, and at this moment, a faint red dot flashed away in the forest.
