Two days have passed in a blink of an eye.

At this time, Lin Dong and the others had already determined the next target location.

This time, the target location is finally no longer some primeval jungle, but an ordinary northern Nigerian town, a small town called Marfa.

However, in terms of distance, it is a bit far from Lin Dong's location at this time, and it takes almost a whole day to travel.

This is also because they will not lose much time to get out of this mountain area at this time.

Just as they had spent the morning and hurried more than 50 kilometers away, Seist received an urgent message from the US military.

"What's the matter?"

After stopping the team, Lin Dong put on a radio headset and spoke directly to the US troops opposite.

"Captain Ryujin, I'm Colonel Hans, and now I have an urgent mission for you to perform!"

Lin Dong was puzzled in his heart, weren't they now carrying out the mission of the US military?

"What task, Colonel Hans, please?"

Colonel Hans, who was on the other side, did not hesitate and directly told Lin Dong about this urgent mission.

After listening to this, Lin Dong was suddenly surprised in his heart.

It turned out that the mission this time was to hope that Lin Dong and his Dragon Soul mercenary group would now rush to a place called Gombe Prefecture to rescue the four American citizens who had been kidnapped by the militants.

The commission for this mission is $1,000,000.

Of course, in order to get all $1 million, you need to rescue all four Americans who were taken hostage.

If there are American casualties during the rescue, $200,000 will be deducted for each American killed.

After listening to Colonel Hans's brief introduction, Lin Dong heard the prompt sound of the system assistant in his ears.

"Ding, congratulations to the host, the system has released a new mercenary mission - to rescue the trapped American personnel in Gombe City."

"Posted by: Colonel Hans."

"Judging by the difficulty, this mission is an A-level mission."

"Mission Objective: Rescue four stranded U.S. citizens."

"Quest Reward - One random special enhancement."

"Since this is the host's third A-level mission, there are no additional rewards after the mission is successful."

"Realistic mission commission, $1 million for rescuing all four hostages, and $200,000 for each reduction."

Lin Dong didn't accept the task immediately, and he wondered if this mission would conflict with his hunting mission.

But before he could figure out the result, the voice of the assistant who had just released the task sounded again.

"The host, the nature of the hunting mission is still a separate mission, so the host can take on other tasks during the period.

The assistant reminds the host that the host's task pick-up is free, and the number of tasks to be picked up and the order of completion are determined by the host.

As long as it is not canceled by the host or the publisher, the task can exist permanently in the taskbar. ”

These words made Lin Dong breathe a sigh of relief, he didn't know about this matter before, but now after listening to the assistant's introduction, he accepted this task without any hesitation.

After receiving Lin Dong's affirmative reply, Colonel Hans was also relieved.

It happened so suddenly that he was caught off guard.

Although the Nigerian police and military had already been dispatched by this time, Colonel Hans did not trust their strength.

The reason why this kind of thing happened is actually a follow-up to the previous oil field incident.

Because under the pressure of the United States, Nigeria dispatched a large number of troops the day before yesterday to arrest 40 members of Boko Haram, including the plotter who launched the destruction of oil field facilities and the looting of crude oil, and a leader of Boko Haram.

There was intelligence provided by the CIA, which allowed these people to be captured.

But what I didn't expect was that these people's retaliation would come so quickly, and they would take hostages to threaten the Nigerian government to release their companions.

And the place of the incident is Gombe State, a state located in northeastern Nigeria that has the title of "Pearl of the Grassland".

Although most of the other areas except the capital city of Gombe are some backward rural areas, they are very rich in resources.

Among them, there are abundant resources such as minerals, coal and crude oil, and there are many companies here.

The four Americans who were taken hostage were some of the technicians who worked here.

In fact, Gombe City is not Boko Haram's sphere of influence, otherwise there would be no foreigners working here.

It's just that Borno and Yobe states, which connect it to the north and northeast, are the most active places in Boko Haram.

After the hostages were captured, all the U.S. forces in Nigeria, whether military or CIA, went into action.

It's just that what makes them helpless is that the United States has no troops at all in Nigeria at all.

Neither the soldiers of Africa Command nor the Eighth Navy SEAL Team in charge of African affairs under the US Special Operations Command were able to get to the scene in the first place.

Now the closest to Gombe has become the Dragon Soul Mercenary Regiment in Borno, so there is this mission issued by Colonel Hans.

And at the cost of millions of dollars.

After receiving the mission, Lin Dong sent the coordinates of their current location to the US military, and they would send a helicopter to transport Lin Dong and them to the place of the incident as quickly as possible.

Because the hostage-taking militants demanded the release of their partners, neither Nigeria nor the Americans wanted to see such a thing.

Now they're just trying to stall as much as they can.

Previously, because the Nigerian government tried to rescue the hostages, but in the end failed, so it also angered the other party, so that they did not hesitate to execute two hostages as a threat.

Thankfully, the four Americans didn't have an accident. This is not only for the US military to be happy, but also for Lin Dong to know about it, because each one is 200,000 US dollars!

In addition to the four Americans, many of the hostages were local Nigerians.

When he got on the plane sent by the US military, Lin Dong saw that Colonel Hans, who was the top commander of the Africa Command here, had come over in person, and it seemed that this incident had really attracted a lot of attention.

After receiving the mission information handed over by Colonel Hans, Lin Dong carefully checked it.

When he saw that these hijackers had strapped bombs to some of the hostages, Lin Dong suddenly felt a little tricky.

In this way, if you don't pay attention to yourself and others, you may be killed by a bomb, and the other party is obviously a group of outlaws who don't care about life and death, so they must be careful when they are on a mission!
