Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Nameless
At noon, the sun is dazzling, the sun is blazing, the wind is carrying the yellow sand and the heat, and the heat wave generally invades the hot and dry earth.
A lonely town that has been abandoned and dilapidated for a long time stands in the yellow sand, and the statue erected at the entrance of the town has long been eroded by the wind and sand and cannot see the original appearance, and the whole town is like a sketch sketch by a painter, without a trace of life.
In the center of the town, there is a quaint bell tower with a height of more than ten meters, the huge dial on the top of the bell tower has long been rusted and peeled off, the door is half-open and half-closed, and the sunlight shines through the gap in the open dial door into the dusty low house, and there is no other furniture in the narrow room except for the workbench left over from the maintenance of the clock dial.
Jin Ling lay on the edge of the gap in the dial door, and the sunlight swept in obliquely on her face, warm, dispelling the damp and cold on the roof of the bell tower.
I looked at the tactical watch on my wrist that was taken off the uniformed man, it was still early, the temperature had begun to soar sharply, and the northwest wind was 6-7, which was still not suitable for people to go out.
I lay down bored for a while, and faintly felt an extremely slight tremor under me.
Jin Ling frowned slightly, got up and came to the hidden dial door, gently pushed open a gap, picked up the M99 semi-automatic sniper rifle that had changed hands from the ground, opened the extender and put it on her shoulder, and looked towards the northwest of the town.
……
Soon, the culprit causing the subtle tremors appeared in the scope.
In the northwest direction, several cars are galloping, constantly pulling each other in and opening up the distance, while speeding at high speed, the rear wheels raise the yellow sand in the sky, looking from a distance, as if several giant pangolins are surging underground, arching the yellow sand and dust all the way, and impacting towards the town.
Leading the way was a rusty and broken car, the car was not visible in its original appearance, most of the paint had peeled off, revealing a gray primer, and the front bumper doors were all rusty red.
Just such a car that looked older than Jin Ling's age, but it burst out with unparalleled combat effectiveness, leaving the two cool-looking sports cars chasing behind him far away, and still continued to widen the gap at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Don't even think about it, under this tattered shell, there must be a certain bull-level figure hidden.
Just listening to the roar of the broken car when it stepped on the accelerator is enough to prove that under the cracked hood, a super stubborn engine heart is beating.
"It's so fast..."Jin Ling frowned, trying to put the rushing broken car into the crosshair of the extender, and the finger on the trigger tried a few times, but he was still not completely sure of sniping from a distance.
Jin Ling had been waiting here for two days and one night, and at first she thought she had missed the road race, until these cars appeared, and Jin Ling's nervousness calmed down a lot.
In the past few days, Jin Ling has been trying to contact Zheng Nannan, and she has followed Meng Chang's instructions to avoid the influence of the hive in the dome fishery, but she has had little success, and she can only judge that Zheng Nanfang is still under the influence of the hive.
At this moment, the road race has begun, and the team that is far ahead has also entered Jin Ling's sight, but Zheng Nannan has not heard from him.
Jin Ling even began to wonder if Zheng Nannan participated in the road race as promised? Or has something happened to him at the Dome Fishery?
The dusty broken car is getting closer and closer, and the roar of the engine is getting clearer and clearer.
Jin Ling retracted her thoughts, took a deep breath, put the butt of the gun on her shoulder again, and slowly moved the muzzle of the gun, bringing the high-speed moving broken car into her crosshairs.
"Bang!"
The muzzle of the sniper rifle flickered, and the sky above the dead and lonely city was like thunder on the ground, and it exploded with a sharp sound, and spiraled into the sky.
The wrecked car that bore the brunt of the attack was unscathed, and although there was a brief slowdown, it had nothing to do with Jin Ling's shot.
Jin Ling sighed helplessly, and the flower shirt in the broken car broke out in a cold sweat.
Sniper rifles are not something that everyone can play, and it takes a long time to shoot a fixed target, let alone shoot a car moving at high speed.
Flower Shirt didn't know that there was a half-hung sniper crouching on the top of the bell tower in front of him, but he could tell the difference between the sound of gunfire and the other sounds. The shot just now was so abrupt that the flower shirt stepped on the brakes completely as an instinctive reaction after hearing the gunshot, so that after he came back to his senses, he didn't know where the cold gun was being fired.
Looking in the rearview mirror, the pursuers behind them all sped up, and the gunshot just now sounded a wake-up call to them...... The threat of a road race is not limited to the riders, there are also many dangers lurking in the wilderness.
Jin Ling rubbed her shoulder, which was shocked by the butt of the gun, and once again held her breath and locked onto another car with a relatively large appearance.
"Bang!"
There was another sudden thunderclap.
The large racing car that Jin Ling was aiming at sped past unscathed, and the silver-gray wind shield in the left rear of the large racing car suddenly exploded, and a bloody flower exploded on the driver's shoulder, and the 12.7mm armor-piercing projectile swirled into his arm, instantly opening a huge blood hole, and his arm suddenly disappeared.
"Ahhhh
The driver who was suddenly attacked let out a heart-rending scream, the steering wheel lost control on the spot, and the gorgeous car immediately danced on the dirt road, rolling up the yellow dust.
Fortunately, the co-pilot driver was quick to grasp the steering wheel and stepped on the brakes on the instep of his companion at the risk of being shot cold, which avoided the tragic end of the car crash and death.
Two gunshots, one bitter master.
The other riders panicked, not knowing which way of the cow ghost and snake god was entrenched in this wasteland and lonely town, and in order not to let themselves repeat the mistake of the son of the wind, they all stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and galloped past the edge of the town as if they were fleeing, not daring to stop.
……
The leading team of the first wave disappeared into the yellow sand in a blink of an eye, except for a child of the wind parked on the side of the road, pitiful and helpless.
The damage caused by armor-piercing shells was far more severe than what the co-pilot driver saw.
Except for the windshield and one of his companion's arms, the armor-piercing bullet easily pierced through the body, and I don't know where it broke the bearing, and when it braked suddenly, the broken bearing broke the fuel tank.
If nothing else, the Son of the Wind is out.
……
The co-pilot is a powerful, muscular man with dark skin, piercing eyes, and neat hair, unlike most strangers in fancy costumes.
The co-pilot knew that his car was being sniped, the enemy was in the dark, and there was no shelter except the loess, in which case any defensive measures seemed meaningless.
Thinking about this, the co-pilot was relieved, didn't take the weapon, swaggered out of the car, compared the middle finger in the direction of the town, and then carried the driver who was in a blood loss coma out of the car, found the medical kit and bandaged him.
Jin Ling saw everything in the extender mirror, regretting and regretting, but there was no way.
According to the message Meng Chang gave her, if you want to find Zheng Nannan in the road race, in addition to synaesthesia, there is only one way left.
Zheng Nanfang has no news at present, synaesthesia has been lost for a long time, Jin Ling has to find him on the one hand, and on the other hand, he has to avoid the pursuit of the laboratory.
can not only hide himself, but also wait for the opportunity to find Zheng Nannan.
Jin Ling originally wanted to force a car to stop and snatch the invitation, but if it didn't involve her own safety, she was not willing to kill innocents indiscriminately.
Regardless of the blood in her bones, after all, she has lived in Shangcheng for a long time, and she has been away from fighting and killing for a while.
It's a pity that it backfired, the shooting skills were not up to par, a bullet went astray, and the child of the wind was unlucky.
Fortunately, Jin Ling is not an indecisive woman, and she knows that she has been wrongly injured, and the other party will definitely not talk to her kindly. Rather than risk being killed to negotiate, it is better to completely destroy the possibility of their counterattack first.
Set up the gun, open the scope, pull the trigger.
"Bang!"
The sturdy black man was shot in the leg and fell in a pool of blood along with the driver with the broken arm.
Jin Ling picked up her gun, slipped down the rope ladder to the bell tower, started the black SUV and drove out of the town, and stopped next to the Son of the Wind.
After all, the appearance of the son of the wind is much cooler than the off-road vehicle, Jin Ling couldn't help but touch the streamlined body, secretly admired, and climbed into the car to find the invitation.
The unjustified rider lay in the blood-soaked sand, silently watching the short-haired, bee-waisted, long-legged woman finish it all, and let out a sigh of despair.
Jin Ling stopped and looked at the two of them, feeling a little unbearable, she put the medical box in front of the black man, thought about it, and didn't know what to say after all.
"It's useless." The black man glanced at the medical kit and smiled miserably: "You haven't been injected with the virus, and you are not an official driver with an invitation." ”
Jin Ling looked back blankly: "Virus? ”
The black man was stunned, then relieved, and said, "It doesn't matter, our schedule is over." Thank you for it. ”
Jin Ling wanted to say and stopped, she wanted to say 'I didn't mean to', but she felt that it seemed too much to say it, so she had better shut up.
"Either kill us both, or get out of my sight." The black man dragged his injured leg, held the unconscious and thin driver in his arms, little by little, struggled to put him on the co-pilot, and then climbed into the cab himself, dragging a long blood mark on the ground.
Jin Ling silently retreated, looked at the black man apologetically, and then calmed down and climbed into the off-road vehicle.
The black man activated the Son of the Wind again, carrying the two men who had not yet succeeded in their apprenticeship towards the road.
Jin Ling saw a wet mark winding behind the car, and the smell of gasoline was strong.
The Son of the Wind let out a final roar, instantly picking up speed, and in the blink of an eye, sped hundreds of meters away, the chassis touching the rubble and causing sparks to ignite the sinuous wet marks, which exploded into pieces with a loud bang.
The deformed wheel fell from the air, gurgled and rolled in front of the off-road vehicle, slammed into the car bar with a 'bang', and came to a stop, completing the last counterattack of the two men.
