Chapter 169: Silent Heated Blood


Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales


The ident.i.ty of the hostage gave Mute a feeling of intimacy that was indescribable. The fact that the enemies were terrorists made him possess a hatred that was incomparable. The little bit of reason he had barely managed to maintain began to crumble.


Qin Fen drew in a deep breath. He raised his head to look at the tunnel with a fixed incline. This was yet another headache.


As for curve shots, Qin Fen only learned how to do curve shots parallel to flat ground. Fancy curve shots, as described by the Old Second of All Ages Gun King, was a truly high-level perfect art. It wasn’t an easy thing at all to learn this. Even Qin Zhan didn’t use any fancy curve shots in his battles back in the day.


It was impossible to land a hit on the enemies inside the tunnel without using fancy curve shots. Qin Fen drew in a deep breath. He collected his Barret M82A1 from the ground once more, and he slowly closed his two eyes, doing his best to concentrate his mind.


Firing a curve shot with the handgun was already something very few people could do. There were far fewer people who could fire curve shots using a sniper rifle. Now what about the case of using super fancy curve shots with the sniper rifle?


Bang!


The Barret M82A1 sniper rifle rang out once again. The bullet sc.r.a.ped against the hard rock as it flew out. It left behind two deep holes in the surface of the rock. In the end, the bullet didn’t fly into the skull of an enemy.


Qin Fen opened his eyes and grinned. A mere curve shot with the sniper rifle was already an extremely difficult thing to do. Now if he wanted to do something fancy, it would certainly not be something that could be learned in a burst just randomly in the universe.


“I’m going to charge again.” Mute stared at Qin Fen. “This time, I won’t let my emotions rush to my head.”


“Okay.”


“I’m going to charge again.”


“I’m going to charge again.”


“I’m going to charge again….”


A dozen or so seconds after every charge, Mute would always ask to initiate another charge.


Such a series of charges in a row had already caused countless recruits to be wounded with their legs and feet. There were four recruits who are lost their lives. Bullets had simply struck them in the head


The light of day turned from the initial dawn into a radiant light. Qin Fen silently looked at the watch on his wrist. Time had pa.s.sed unbeknownst to him to be already around ten o’clock in the morning.


“I’m going to charge…”


“No.” Qin Fen shook his head over and over. “We cannot continue these tactics of adding oil.”


All the recruits knew that there was only one way to complete the mission in such circ.u.mstances. It was none other than throwing grenades! As long as they could throw even a single grenade into the enemy’s tunnel, its destructive power would be enough.


It was just that the person who tossed the grenade had the probability of surviving to be near zero with the interwoven net of the enemies’ firepower, even if he wore a bulletproof vest.


“I’m going to charge again….”


“Now.” Qin Fen pointed at the four dead bodies on the ground. He asked faintly. “This isn’t enough for you? The death of four people isn’t enough? It doesn’t really matter if we fail the mission. The military will use fighter aircraft to engage in a bombing. The terrorists still number over a hundred, after all!”


Mute fell silent. He quietly looked at the four corpses on the ground. It hadn’t been long since these four comrades were real living humans. It was because they were confident in Mute that they followed Mute’s lead in the charge…


The other recruits also became silent as well. Everybody began to tacitly agree with Qin Fen’s orders.


“Qin Fen, can you hear me?” Du Zhanpeng finally couldn’t take waiting any longer. He started up wireless communications for the first time. “Can you hear me?”


“I hear you.” Qin Fen faintly replied. “The enemies frontal firepower’s too fierce. We are incapable of breaking through them. The mission is a failure.”


“We cannot fail the mission!” Du Zhanpeng’s tone was normally that of tranquil discussion. In this very moment, his tone turned into a high-handed order like a roar. “Do you know who the hostage that they have inside is? It’s the chief designer of the Federation’s nano battle suit…”


Mute, who had just fallen silent, had his eyes flash with radiance once again.


The nano combat suit was a combat suit that often held a fantasy-like position on the military’s network. Its functions were extremely powerful, just lacking to the expensive biochemical beasts by just a tiny bit. However, its costs were far cheaper than that of a biochemical beast.


If such an object were to fall in the hands of terrorists…. Mute quietly clenched his hands tightly into fists. Just how many more tragedies must occur to families like his own in the Federation?


If they could seize back this expert…? Mute’s looked at his comrades who had sacrificed their lives in the charge with him. If these people had worn nano battle suits, perhaps they wouldn’t have died.


“Alive. Alive! We must rescue him alive!” His eyes instantly became filled with bloodl.u.s.t. This caused his eyes to look as if they were radiating with the terrifying red glow.


Cold light pulsed in the eyes of the other recruits as well. The terrorist attacks would grow more and more vicious for the next few years if they were able to seize the nano battle suit.


“I will go! Grenade! I will throw it!”


Big Rock’s voice thundered, completely shattering the silence in the tunnel to pieces.


“What bulls.h.i.+t are you talking about?” Snake Head stood up, stirred emotionally. His two hands grabbed onto the clothes before Big Rock’s chest very tightly. Big Rock, who was much higher than Snake Head, was forcefully pushed against the wall. “It isn’t your turn to be a hero! Your mother and father are still waiting for you! They are relying on your support! I will…”


“Snake Head.” A recruit placed his palm on Snake Head’s shoulder. “Don’t you have two little sisters? Don’t they need your support? Therefore, I should be the one to…”


“Flea, don’t you have parents? I will…”


“You don’t have any parents, but you have a girlfriend…”


Mute silently looked at all the recruits as they quarreled. He knew that these people didn’t want him to go, so they quarreled endlessly in this way. He quietly grasped a grenade in his hand. He had never unleashed his complete strength, even back during the piranha training. At this moment, he infused all his true energy into his two legs.


“Brothers…” Mute’s faint voice interrupted everyone’s quarreling. There was a faint smile of satisfaction on his face. “Across from us are the terrorists who have killed my entire family. Though they probably aren’t the ones to have done it personally, they are all still terrorists. I don’t know just what the nano combat suits might is in the end, but based on the habits of terrorists, they will always find civilians to test any new weapons they obtain. Therefore…”


“Charge with me!”


A voice resonated through the entire tunnel, one that could lacerate the vocal folds of the throat. The solid rock beneath Mute’s feet suddenly jolted, and a cracking sound was completely concealed by his roar. His entire person was akin to a meteor as he threw himself out of the tunnel.


The weaving net of firepower thundered once more. Bullets collided upon the bulletproof vest of Mute’s body like hail. They wanted to rip apart that troublesome hindrance. They wanted to stop his feet from engaging in that crazy movement.


The red lights of blood splashed out from the bulletproof vest. Mute’s body soared high into the air. His entire body spread out completely in the air off of this single step and he jumped a distance of over ten meters. His two legs were finally incapable of supporting the enormous strength from the powerful infusion of true energy. Lines and lines gashes exploded open in his muscles from the rush of his own true energy. Blood splattered all around, his military uniform incapable of stopping it.


The grenade was like a falling artificial satellite. The enemy didn’t have any time at all to attack it. It was already tossed into the tunnel entrance.


“No…”


Scarlet Scorpion stood atop the rooftop as he watched the crazy mute move through the air. His entire person was stupefied. Had this recruit gone mad? He had jumped out from a tunnel that was as tall as a three-story building and faced the attacks from countless semi-automatic rifles. He would not retreat even in death? This was only a mission. The recruits could choose to retreat.


Kaboom…


Flames erupted from the tunnel-like a tide of water. Mute, who was in the air, began to fall. Bullets had already pierced his shoulder, stomach, thigh, and arm. He already lacked all sensation of pain from these body parts by now. As he fell, he faced the sky, and the emotions he suppressed for many years were completely liberated in this very moment. Perhaps death was the greatest freedom of all.


In the tunnel, Big Rock, Snake Head, Qin Fen, and the others quietly looked at Mute who had soared high in the air. They saw the dazzling blossoms of blood splatter from his body.


Not a single person spoke any bold or visionary words. Not a single person roared—shouting themselves hoa.r.s.e—about charging, about killing, and so on.


Everyone collectively decided to grow silent. Within this collective silence, everyone rushed out of the tunnel that was around as tall as a three-story building using their quickest speed.


There weren’t any yells or roars, nor were there any dedications toward completing the mission. There was only a certain infection that came over them!


Gunfire! In the instant the first recruit jumped out of the tunnel, his P308 began to reap enemy lives in thunderous roars.


Each and every one of the terrorists that stood on the rooftop was stunned. Nearly fifty recruits had jumped out from the tunnel in a completely reckless manner. Nearly fifty P308s opened fire in the air, the scene extremely glorious!


Du Zhanpeng, who hid behind the rock wall, heard the dialogue loud and clear through his receiver. The other recruits had also heard the instant the grenade exploded loud and clear.


Du Zhanpeng saw that all the recruits had eyes that blossomed with a firm gaze never before seen. Everyone nodded heavily at the same time at this moment!


Du Zhanpeng, who had never felt his blood boil, finally understood why his father said that being a soldier was the most emotionally stirring occupation out there. Everyone had nodded in affirmation to completely hand over their lives.


There weren’t any dialogues at all. Fifty recruits flickered out from the cover that was the rock wall at the same time. Everyone rushed upon the mountain pa.s.sageway, which was quite wide.


What did it matter if there was no cover? What did it matter that they faced a hundred thugs with AK-47s? One of their brothers whom they had eaten together with had thrown his life into the wind. Would they still be men if they were to curse around, mincing words?


Stake one’s life! Those who cursed would not do so!


If you dared to stand on top of the roof, holding guns, then these bosses also dared to forgo any cover whatsoever!


The terrorists were stunned when they faced the recruits who had suddenly flickered out from cover. They were stunned at the recruits who either crawled, squatted, or stood without any cover in the pa.s.sageway. They were stunned as the recruits opened fire.


Had… had these kid soldiers gone mad? Did they know what they were doing? They jumped down from a height of a three-story building into a vast s.p.a.ce without any cover whatsoever? They flickered out from a thick rock wall? Abandoning covered that could block bullets?


Was it worth it for a mere rescue mission? Even if the mission was a failure, they wouldn’t be punished at all on their return. Was it worth throwing their lives away into the wind like this?


In this short period of stupefaction, nearly a hundred guns shot out bullets. The bullet screamed as they arrived before the terrorists, fiercely colliding into their bulletproof vests. Perhaps some of the bullets dug into skulls, and perhaps some screamed as they flew past people’s bodies, piercing other people’s bulletproof vests.


The instant Qin Fen landed on the ground, he rolled, dragging Mute on the ground over next to him. Whether or this man was dead or alive, Qin Fen would not let him be separated from the team.
