Chapter 173: Purple Divine Power
In the roar of the helicopter engine, a trace of crimson light scattered the dark blue clouds in the sky little by little. A strange shadow on the ground gradually revealed its true face.
Endless sand, gravel, hills, and withered shrubs combine to create the roughness and desolation characteristic of the Gobi.
"Arrive at the target area in five minutes, please prepare for landing. The navigator's voice rang out from the headphones.
"Prepare to land!"
Following the scholar's command, the four team members subconsciously checked the weapons and equipment.
The next second, they reacted again, and when they came out this time, there was nothing but people and clothes on their bodies.
After the scholar gave the password, he also subconsciously touched the weapon. Like the others, after touching the void, all five laughed at the same time......
Five minutes later, the navigator's voice sounded again: "Arrived at the target area, the sight around the landing site is good, no trace of the enemy has been found. Wind force 3 to 4, can be rappelled. ”
"Brothers, let's work!"
With the scholar's shout, the hatch opened, and then the cable hung down. In less than ten seconds, all five people had safely landed.
The helicopter overhead made a half-circle, and the pilot gave a thumbs up to the five people on the ground, then pulled up and lowered the throttle.
The view around the landing site is very good, and the surrounding scenery of about two kilometers in the morning light can be seen.
The monk, dressed in a cowboy suit, swept around, and said to the scholar in a relaxed tone: "Team leader, give instructions." ”
The scholar was also observing the situation around him, and after making sure that he was safe, he raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the rising sun.
He shouted: "Home is in the east, let's go to the sun." ”
"Gotta do it!"
Several people responded at the same time, without saying hello at all, and their movements were surprisingly consistent along the low hill line, forming a depression, and moving quickly in the direction of the rising sun.
As soon as he walked more than 50 meters, he heard a gunshot in the distance.
"Helicopter!" exclaimed the farmer.
The eight teams participating in the competition are far away from each other's landing zone, and even if the neighboring teams are attacked, it is impossible to hear the gunshots.
Moreover, the direction in which the shots were being fired was exactly the direction in which the helicopter left.
The five people looked at each other quickly, and the scholar beckoned, "Let's go, go and see!"
The other four didn't say a word and acted immediately.
The sorties were all medium-sized transport helicopters and were not armed at all. Once encountered, it can be said that there is no way to fight back.
If the driver is a little slower, he is likely to be injured or even shot down by the crossfire of the automatic weapon.
If the worst happens, the only one who can rescue the driver and navigator is Liu Yi's group.
As soon as the five men began to run at full speed, the sound of gunfire in the distance had already subsided. After running for another hundred meters, he disappeared completely.
Although judging from the sound, the helicopter should have broken away from contact with the enemy, the five people did not dare to slack off, and still rushed in the direction of the gunshots.
About five minutes later, the monk who was running at the front suddenly raised his right arm and made a fist gesture.
The four people behind hurriedly stopped, and before they could see what was going on in front of them, they heard the monk roar: "Hidden!"
Without having time to think about it, the five people instantly dispersed in a low posture, using the surrounding terrain to find a hiding point.
Liu Yi approached behind a withered yellow shrub and observed it along the gap between the branches. I found that at the limit of the line of sight in front of the right, there was a faint figure flickering.
Squinted his eyes and took a closer look, there were not a few figures. There are about seven or eight of them, and they keep popping up in the back.
There is no road in the desert Gobi at all, Liu Yi estimated it, and found that if the people who came kept the direction of travel unchanged, they would just crash into the area where five people were lurking.
As soon as Liu Yi wanted to make a reminder, he heard the monk shouting at the scholar: "Scholar, they are coming at us." ”
"Are you sure?" asked the big head, not so sure.
If a person with normal vision is aiming at a person, he will basically not be able to see clearly beyond 400 meters.
But the figure in the distance was almost two kilometers away from the location where the five people were lurking.
Being able to see something moving is already the limit of your vision. Being able to discern the direction of the other person's journey sounds a bit metaphysical.
Therefore, not to mention that the big head didn't believe it, the scholars and farmers also looked at the monk suspiciously.
Immediately, the three of them heard Liu Yi say: "That's right, it's indeed coming from our side." There are about a dozen or thirteen that can be seen now, and there should be more later, but the number is unknown. ”
Compared with the monk, Liu Yi's words are much more credible.
After all, he had already shown a keen sense of hearing far beyond ordinary people at the rest point.
As the saying goes, it seems normal for ears to be deaf and bright, hearing to be deformed, and eyesight to be surprisingly good.
When the scholar heard Liu Yi confirm the situation reported by the monk, he no longer hesitated and observed left and right.
Signaling to a low gravel hill on the left, he shouted: "Transfer~"
The situation is unclear, and it is undoubtedly wisest to avoid the edge for the time being.
After the scholar gave the order, the five people quickly got up, and each took advantage of the cover of the terrain to quickly move to the left.
The empty desert, coupled with the constant steaming water vapor in the morning light, makes the actual distance between objects much farther than what people see subjectively.
After the five of them ran, they were just approaching the gravel hills, and a pickup truck and an off-road vehicle appeared in the distance.
Moreover, it is approaching at a rapid pace.
"Hidden!"
With a low cry from the scholar, the five quickly dispersed to find a hiding spot, but it was too late.
The pickup truck running in front suddenly honked its horn and drove towards the five people with its throttle on the accelerator, followed by the off-road vehicle behind.
"Up the hill!"
The scholar decisively changed his instructions and took the lead in rushing towards the gravel mountain.
"Dada~"
A kilometer away, gunshots rang out in the back of the pickup truck.
Liu Yi ran forward wildly, turned his head to take a look, and found that the people on the back bucket were actually shooting into the sky.
The brain hesitated for a moment, then reacted and looked back.
Sure enough, the figures on foot that were first spotted had changed direction and were running in the direction of the gravel hills.
"It's coming from behind your butt!" Liu Yi hurriedly sent a police call.
"Spread out, look for a chance to grab a gun!" the scholar shouted, looking back.
The available terrain in the desert is very limited, and it is impossible to run on two legs. The other party has a gun again, and if you want to get rid of the other party with speed, you are definitely dying.
Therefore, the scholar planned to use the gravel hills to force the opponent to fight in close combat, waiting for an opportunity to seize the weapon.
Whether it's a pickup truck or an off-road vehicle, it's impossible to drive up the rocky hills.
Two cars stopped at the bottom of the hill one after another, and four people jumped out of the back of the pickup truck, and two people also got off the off-road truck.
When the five men scattered with their guns and climbed the mountain, the two cars, one left and one right, circled along the foot of the mountain, apparently taking a detour.
