Chapter 578: Revenge
Everyone was enthusiastically waiting to have the symbol of the Deviant Corp tattooed onto their body. This tattoo later became the official symbol of the Land of Mercenaries after it was unified.
Just when everyone was getting the tattoo done and the atmosphere couldn’t be more lively, a truck drove into the camp and a soldier shouted, “Big Brother Cheng, Captain Diesel’s injured!”
Xu Cheng and the other team captains immediately rushed to the gate, and they just saw a mercenary jumping off the car, and in another mercenary’s arms was Diesel who was covered in gunshot wounds, his lips faintly white as his face paled, looking like life was escaping from his body.
They were sent out to purchase supplies. Xu Cheng anxiously asked, “What happened? Didn’t we send out three cars? How come just one came back?”
“We were attacked by the Wild Wolf Mercenaries, and those two cars with supplies were taken away, and the four brothers on them have all died. We are all injured too, and if it weren’t for luck and some good driving, we wouldn’t have been able to make it out alive,” a mercenary said while covered in sweat.
“Wild Wolf Mercenaries?” Xu Cheng frowned. “What’s their background?”
“It’s a mercenary group that was hostile towards Cobra in the past. We’ve always had grudges between us, and Diesel probably got recognized this time and appeared especially vulnerable because he was just with a small team out for a mission. They thought it was a good chance to get some revenge,” a team captain said.
Xu Cheng went to check Diesel’s injury, and he felt that Diesel couldn’t make it anymore.
Xu Cheng directly picked him up onto his back and ran into the room as he shouted,
Prepare the cars and weapons, we are going to fack some sh-t up!”
Those team captains immediately nodded and then began grouping their men and preparing their weapons.
Xu Cheng placed Diesel’s weak body onto the bed, and then he shouted at Lin Dong, “Little Dong, give him a shot of anesthetic.”
Lin Dong nodded. He had practiced this before, so he anesthetized Diesel with ease, and then Xu Cheng handed him a syringe filled with serum and said, “You know how to use it, right?”
Xu Cheng nodded and then walked out of the room. There were soldiers waiting outside.
“Everyone probably knows about Diesel and his team getting attacked, right?” Xu Cheng asked.
Everyone nodded, but there were also some people that were more sensible. “Big Brother Cheng, I heard that various countries’ special forces have already entered the area to prepare for the compet.i.tion; I think it’s best if we don’t expose ourselves during a time like this, or we might become their target.”
Xu Cheng nodded. “I know.”
But his tone took a turn immediately and he said, “But Diesel and the other three brothers are now severely injured, four of our brothers died during the attack, and all the housing materials and supplies for our bros have now been taken away! These are all facts! You guys tell me, can we tolerate this?!”
Most of the mercenaries directly shouted, “No!”
“Then we won’t!” Xu Cheng said in a deep voice. “Now, 50 of you step out and come with me, the rest will stay behind to guard the base.”
The former-Cobra mercenaries were a bit worried. “Big Brother Cheng, Wild Wolf has over a hundred members, is the 50 of us really enough?”
At this time, Luo YI and Li Wei laughed. They wanted these new recruits to witness Xu Cheng’s capabilities, so they just said, “Just arrange 50 guys to go with Big Brother Cheng, and we will stay behind to guard the base.”
Mario and the others also weren’t eager to volunteer to go.
So, five team captains brought their team and got into the cars. There were 20 cars, and the big-azz fleet just drove towards Wild Wolf’s territory. Those two mercenaries that were injured but could still move also got on, wanting to witness the revenge.
The trip was quite a long one, but the rage in every mercenary’s heart kept their fighting spirits high.
After the four hour trip, they found their brothers’ bodies that were abandoned by those guys in the sand. Xu Cheng had them carried up onto the truck and brought the bodies along with them to Wild Wolf’s camp.
The Wild Wolf Mercenary Group’s camp was situated in a jungle area, and the outer ring had mines buried to prevent attacks. After all, they didn’t have many people in comparison to the big groups, so they had to step up their game in defense.
There was also video surveillance in the woods. When Xu Cheng’s fleet drove close to the area, Wild Wolf was already alerted.
Xu Cheng turned on his penetrating vision and saw the mines. He drove his car to the front and said to the guys behind him, “Careful for the mines, just follow my truck.”
Then, the fleet trampled a path in the jungle and drove through.
When they arrived at the hill region where the Wild Wolf base was situated, there were already 40 rifles pointed at them from the top of the hill behind a long wall made of sandbags.
There was a guy with a thick beard smoking a cigar looking down at the fleet of cars below, and he laughed, “Look who it is. It turned out to be our friends from Cobra. But why did your flag change?”
He glanced at the captains and members on the car that were formerly from Cobra. They were pretty much old acquaintances, and he couldn’t help but mock, “I heard your boss got killed and Cobra disbanded? How did you guys change to another flag so fast? Tsk tsk, this one isn’t even better-looking than the Cobra ones. Anyways, what brought you guys here? Want to have a taste of our explosives? You guys sure are brave, ‘winter’ is almost here, and you guys made such a grand move, aren’t you afraid of being detected by the special forces and then getting your whole base wiped out?”
A captain came closer and said to Xu Cheng, “This guy with the ugly beard is the boss of Wild Wolf.”
Xu Cheng nodded. He pointed at the four bodies on the car and said, “These guys were killed by you, right? Where’s our stuff?”
Wild Wolf’s boss laughed. “It’s almost ‘winter’, we all need supplies. Coincidentally, we were also about to buy some supplies to build my guys some new houses. Come on, this is pretty common in this land, people die, so what? Why are you making a big fuss about it?”
“Oh really?” Xu Cheng looked at him and said, “Since you already know Cobra disbanded, why did you still look for trouble with them? Do you know that they are already my Deviant Corp’s people? You retaliating against them means opposing the Deviant Corp!”
“Deviant Corp?” the boss of Wild Wolf laughed. “My first time hearing about it. I know Cobra already disbanded, but in the Land of Mercenaries, do people even need a reason to kill and rob? If you aren’t happy about it, you can kill me. But the question is, can you? Hahahaha, dumbazz, coming to reason with me. If we can reason here, would this place still be called the Land of Mercenaries? This land only respects the strong, and whoever can take out the other one can do whatever they want. No matter how much reason you have on your side, it’s not like I would be killed by justice.”
Then, the boss of Wild Wolf looked at those five team captains and asked, “Don’t tell me that this is your new boss. Is his only weapon his mouth?”
