Chapter 224: Touching the Whistle

Three days later, in the early hours of the morning, before the sun had fully risen, the entire wasteland was shrouded in a gray shimmer.

Qi Lin and Cheng Yanqiu's elite team appeared in an area on the outskirts of the Steel City that was slightly contaminated by radiation, and the ambient radiation concentration here was around thirty to forty, and everyone except Qi Lin had to eat a white anti-radiation pill every once in a while.

Even so, the team members could still feel the slight itching and burning sensation on the exposed skin, and as for the air they breathed in, their lungs were constantly suffering from fire.

However, it is precisely because this area is a radioactive contaminated area, so the surrounding area is inaccessible, and the mutual aid association has not set up a sentry here, which is a blind spot on the outer defense area of the Steel City.

According to the previously agreed meeting method, after Qi Lin fired the signal flare, a figure wearing a tattered earthy yellow camouflage cloak quickly appeared in the team's field of vision.

"It's your own person, don't be nervous." Qi Lin pressed the assault rifle that one of Cheng Yanqiu's team was about to raise subconsciously.

The figure in the camouflage cloak quickly ran to less than ten meters away from the crowd, and the man lifted the hood from the cloak, revealing a very immature face covered with mud and dirt, which was the foggy eye.

"Where's Ayakui?" Qi Lin glanced at him and found that Foggy Eye had come alone, so he couldn't help but ask.

“…… She, she said she was in a bad mood and went out for a walk. Misty Eyes replied with some embarrassment.

"Let her go, just save me from serving, anyway, there is no need for her to go out of the whistle." Qi Lin said, taking a Mosin Nagant rifle from a member of the team behind him and throwing it to Misty Eyes.

Fog Eye's evolutionary abilities are biased towards camouflage, concealment, and sniping, but he is different from Qi Lin, a guy who uses all kinds of weapons, and this guy doesn't know why, but he is especially fond of Mosin Nagant, an antique rifle designed and manufactured by the Soviet Union hundreds of years ago.

"Well, there's this, the warhead is filled with mercury, be careful when using it. Also, if you don't want to commit suicide, try not to put the bullet close to the source of fire. Qi Lin took out two rows of 7.62mm mercury clamped on the bridge magazine from his pocket and handed them to Fog Eye.

"yes, got it." Misty Eye nodded, and carefully put away the two silver bullets.

Compared to the kind of quenching bullet he used to snipe Qi Lin, the lethality of the mercury bullet was several times greater, and in the hands of the misty eye, a mercury bullet was equivalent to the life of a low-level evolutionary of the Mutual Aid Society.

As for the advanced evolutionaries, they will be personally killed by Qi Lin and Cheng Yanqiu, or directly bombarded with heavy weapons.

"Alright, if you're ready, let's get to work - the first target, Outpost 17 on the edge of the radiation zone, go!"

……

The task of the advance team is to uproot all the outposts along the road without alarming the Mutual Aid Association, otherwise, if the large army behind is discovered by the Mutual Aid Association dozens of kilometers away, the initiative in this siege battle will fall directly into the hands of those gods.

Two thousand men, although well-equipped and well-trained, are not badly armed and equipped by the Mutual Aid Society, and they also occupy various defensive structures, and the number of combatants is even greater - if they can't achieve an unexpected surprise attack, these two thousand people want to attack head-on in the face of the steel city that is ready for it, it is no different from sending them to death.

……

Outpost 17 is an old suburban Catholic church, except that the cross on the top of the church has been removed and replaced with a flag made of large canvas with a Libra logo embroidered on it.

Outside the main door of the church, two rusty old power armors were parked, except that the two Templars operating the power armor were not inside the armor, but sat on the ground facing each other, smoking homemade cigarettes made from tobacco and waste paper, chatting.

There were also five or six Templars roasting potatoes and another starchy plant tuber around a stove converted from old oil drums, and from their sleepy eyes, it was clear that they had just woken up into the game world.

The only white-robed priest in the entire outpost was kneeling reverently at the door of the church against the rising sun, with a notebook full of unknown things spread out on the ground in front of him, his hands folded, and his mouth muttering.

There are three types of players who join the Mutual Aid Society, one is those who have ambitions and desires and want to use their power to control others, and the other is forced by life. They have no choice but to take refuge in mutual aid associations, and the third type is the true believers who are fanatical to the point of madness.

It seems that this white-robed priest is the third type of person, and the degree of loyalty of this kind of person to the mutual aid society can be described as foolish loyalty, and it is estimated that even if the bishops above let him die, he will not blink an eyelid.

Originally, in the last days, these people no longer have hope for survival, but the emergence of mutual aid associations is equivalent to giving them a spiritual sustenance and giving these people the belief to live...... And this group of people is also the most terrible group of people in the mutual aid association.

They are not afraid of death, but they are so afraid of death that they cannot satisfy the "Lord God" they believe in.

Misteye also told Qi Lin that in the mutual aid society, in addition to the Knights Templar, there is also a "loyal believer group", and the players in this loyal believer group only have the most rudimentary weapons and a pack of explosives that they carry with them, and when fighting other forces or mutated creatures in the wasteland, these players are treated as cannon fodder at the forefront - even if they are not killed in the process of charging, after approaching their enemies, these madmen will brazenly detonate the explosives on their bodies.

It's as crazy as the human bombs brainwashed by the distorted religious teachings of the terrorist organizations of the old days.

Since everyone in the game world has three chances to resurrect, these cheap cannon fodder can be replenished very quickly, and many believers who have sacrificed their lives for the "Lord God" will try their best to run back even if the resurrection site is far away from the Steel City.

"There were fourteen people in total, eight outside, six inside the church, four on the first floor, two on the second floor, three people with weapons outside, and it was not clear what was inside."

With the thermal vision turned on, Qi Lin could see the figures walking inside through the walls of the church - but due to the barrier of the walls, those figures were also a large blurry block of bright colors, and it was difficult to distinguish the specific gender, age, and weapons and equipment.

"There shouldn't be any hidden sentinels, right? Or, will there be someone who hasn't been online? Cheng Yanqiu asked.

"Anyway, I only see these few people, Fog Eye, according to the distribution of the defense of the mutual aid association, how many people are generally configured in a post of this size?" Qi Lin turned his head to look at the misty eye lying between the two bushes.

"Almost, the location here is not very important, to pass through here, you have to pass through the radiation area just now, so this outpost should only be a second-level or third-level outpost, even if there is a small church, the number of garrisons will not exceed twenty. As for the online situation, the Mutual Aid Society requires the staff stationed at the post to be online all day, and those who arrive late, leave early, and are absent from work will be punished by the clergy. ”

"Then these people should be all the people in this outpost, Sato, you take three people, touch in from the back of the church, and clean up the people inside, me and 9527 will raid from the front, and Fog Eye and Night Stalker will be responsible for sniper cover, no problem, right?"

"No problem." Everyone nodded in response.

The night owl mentioned by Cheng Yanqiu is a female sniper in his team, although he can't see his face clearly with a mask, but judging from his charming eyes and fiery figure, he is definitely a rare stunner.

The gun used by this night stalker is a CheyTac-Intervention M-200 sniper rifle, which is a high-precision sniper rifle designed based on the Windranger M96 sniper rifle, the caliber has been reduced from 12.7mm to 10.36mm against soft targets, equipped with a handheld tactical computer, and sensors connected to the computer, which can automatically correct the ballistic deflection caused by air pressure, temperature, humidity, etc., and is one of the most accurate and long-range sniper rifles in the old era.

It's just that Qi Lin has never used such a high-tech weapon - mercenaries who are crawling and rolling in various harsh environments, pursuing the durability and low failure rate of weapons, not to mention M200, even delicate things like PSG-1 are not very popular with most mercenaries.

I just don't know how powerful this M200 can be in the hands of this night owl......
