Chapter 36: The Storm

The woods are quiet, but there is something strange about this quietness.

S.T.A.R.S. Team Beta's team was traveling in another helicopter to the site of another plane crash, and now the Alpha Team has no guarantee that they have not been attacked.

Pierce reported the situation to the police officers who were supporting him over the intercom, and after confirming that they had received it, he began to go deep into the forest with the members of Alpha Team.

They're raccoon city cops, and that's what they're desperate to do.

There was a faint sense of unease in Jill's heart, and it had now been confirmed that it was a premeditated attack, and that the attacker was still where he was.

The enemy's firepower is unknown, and they may face an attack if they rush deeper.

In the forest not far from Team Alpha, a group of ten armed men were rummaging through the wreckage of the helicopter.

They are an international mercenary organization of free men, and two months ago they received a big order!

Kill Duncan Arems, the current leader of the Umbrella Company, and bring back his body or 500 grams of body tissue.

The employer offered a price that no one could refuse, and they tried to assassinate Duncan several times, but every time Duncan left Raccoon City, he would take a large group of armed security guards with him, and he would let people explore the way before going out, and the security level was terrifyingly high, and to this day, their informant has provided them with an excellent piece of information.

Duncan will take a helicopter tour of the construction of the industrial park!

The captain of the mercenary's squad took action decisively and successfully knocked down all three helicopters with missiles, after which they only needed to return with the corpse of their target to receive their payment.

"Haven't you found it yet?"

The captain next to the wreckage of the plane is very urgent, even if their firepower is not weak, but they can't beat the Raccoon City Police Department, which has hundreds of policemen, not to mention that there are thousands of umbrella privates in Raccoon City, and the thirty people here can't beat them with any kind of weapons.

The umbrella may not have reacted for a while, because of the threat of missiles, they may not use helicopters, and they will approach by car, and it will not be long before the security forces can easily surround them.

Seeing the urging team members, they also stepped up to extinguish the fire and searched for the target's body in the pried open helicopter.

The employer paid a lot of money for them to kill the owner of a huge company, and this kind of unspoken rule breaking behavior is easily attacked by the collective crusade of the capitalists, who have done a long psychological struggle to take over the business, and when it is over, they will be free to be rich, and they don't want to mess up.

"Captain, no body found!" Several mercenaries turned over the wreckage of the plane and reluctantly said this answer.

After listening, the captain pressed the headset and asked, "Cheetah, eagle, have you found it over there?" ”

"Didn't find it!"

"Shet, I don't have it either!"

The response from the headset was not long in coming, and the answers were all very uniform.

Intelligence errors?

As soon as this bad thought came to the captain's mind, a dense barrage of bullets came from the woods on their side.

Da-da-da-da!

Two mercenaries who were not in a good position fell directly, and the others hid their bodies behind trees at the first moment they heard the gunshots. Seconds later, the mercenaries fought back in the direction where the bullets were flying.

For a while, bullets and sawdust flew in the woods!

The alpha team that carefully touched them wanted to catch them off guard, but after they really fought, they found that those people on the other side were well-trained, and even if they were sneak attacked, they would lose their square inches, and they were obviously professionally trained and even on the battlefield.

"Madefaq!" After changing the rifle magazine, the mercenary captain gestured to retreat at several of his companions, who did not want to fight the police in Raccoon City.

The mercenaries quickly disappeared into the scene by planting tricky mines nearby, blurring the battlefield with smoke bombs, and covering the battlefield with complex wooded terrain.

After being obstructed by smoke, Team Alpha attempts to pursue.

Payton rushed ahead, completely oblivious to what was underneath his feet, and as he passed by a bush, his keen hearing made him hear the sound of the grenade ring falling, and shouted in shock, "Grenade!! ”

With that, he threw himself to one side.

Boom!

The shamprapnel from the grenade explosion flew up, and Peyton, who had fallen in time, was lucky not to be injured, and the others were reminded that they had also fallen in time, and they were not injured by the mines, but they did not dare to continue the pursuit.

"Ahem, ahem!" Jill swept away the smoke in front of him, carefully watched his feet, and pulled Captain Pierce up from the ground.

As soon as they were about to say something, the sound of helicopter propellers came from the sky.

Looking up, between the branches and branches, a large number of helicopter gunships with umbrella markings were flying in the sky.

Mixed in with a few Osprey helicopters-like side-rotor planes passed through the woods, projecting a large number of jamming bombs at their startled gaze, followed by a round of rockets aimed at the distant woods.

The Alpha team below was stunned for a while, the eye-catching umbrella logo on the side of the plane was too eye-catching, these planes are already military models, right?

None of their police officers have such a strong firepower configuration, and a private company security team can use such exaggerated equipment?

In any case, the three wrecks were quickly taken over by the Umbrella Company, and the police were only responsible for maintaining order at the scene, especially not allowing the reporters to get close.

Most of the internationally renowned mercenary teams were killed or wounded in the bombing, and only seven escaped through the tunnels dug in advance.

……

Perhaps deliberately spread by people with intentions, the news of the attack on Duncan Arems, the CEO of Umbrella Company, quickly made world headlines in the next two days, and the discussion remained hot, with obvious traces of human manipulation.

Duncan's second-hand secretary Susan was forced to be interviewed by reporters, and she behaved reluctantly in front of the camera, insisting that Duncan was just missing, and the answer was basically led by the nose, giving people the feeling of wanting to cover up.

Netizens basically didn't believe it, and the direction of the discussion gradually changed from the attack on the CEO of the umbrella company to whether the umbrella company should be split, and whether the private armed forces owned by the umbrella company were too exaggerated?

Wolves outside the company are watching, and the whole company is also panicking.

Susan sat haggard in the secretary's office, following the instructions of the Red Queen, mechanically processing the papers, and the problems she could not handle were put on hold for the time being.

Now she is very confused, she has seen Duncan travel through the world, she doesn't believe that Duncan will die so easily, but she hasn't seen her boss for two days, and it is difficult to confirm the truth in her heart.

Coupled with complicated and exaggerated work, she seems to be a few years older.

Originally, Susan was a vase, and she had no experience in dealing with these major emergencies, and after only two days, she began to miss the small days when she could just lie down and throw a lot of coins.

"Miss Susan, I got another ......"

The office door was pushed open, and a brown-haired secretary in the secretarial corps, with a tangled expression, placed the letter he had just received on Susan's desk.

Staring at the bald eagle on the envelope for a long time, Susan covered her head with a headache and waved her hand to let the brown-haired secretary leave.

She ruffled her hair and looked up at the simple and luxurious office, only to feel that it was a breathless place, and the pressure was so great that she wanted to quit.

Even if some people enter society, they don't necessarily mean they are independent.
