...
The Tibetan Border is located deep inland, almost reaching the desolate areas where human traces are rare. Within a hundred kiloters, you might not see many people… This place is far from the cities, and even villages are scarcely seen.
Afterward, the troop transport vehicle carried Qin Fang and his team into the Gobi Desert, which is even more barren…
In September, the Gobi Desert is quite hot, and the air is extrely dry, even more terrifying than Ninghai. Packed inside the troop transport vehicle, the temperature inside skyrocketed.
However, these elite soldiers seem to have already adapted to this environnt. Even with sweat running down their foreheads and bodies, no one complained about the heat or ntioned feeling uncomfortable…
Qin Fang seed much more at ease, his thin and breathable clothing offering so advantage… causing the soldiers to sigh lightly, though they wouldn't feel envy or resentnt, because the heat isn't the real fear—the low temperatures of Mount Kunlun are.
"Woo woo woo woo~~~~"
Qin Fang sat quietly in a corner of the troop transport vehicle, seemingly unfazed by the surrounding temperature, appearing quite calm… until he was awakened by the sound of an alarm coming from the front.
"Everyone prepare, we're entering the combat zone…"
The leading officer poked his head from the driver's cabin at the front of the vehicle and issued a simple command to everyone inside.
Imdiately, the soldiers began to check their personal equipnt with great coordination… Entering the combat zone ans they might enter combat at any mont, requiring them to stay vigilant.
According to their intel, the enemy entering the combat zone this ti is exceptionally powerful, even more frightening than regular troops, leaving this elite special forces team with little advantage.
Under such circumstances, moving into the combat zone is a path of survival against the odds, requiring the smallest possible loss to achieve the largest possible victory… Victory is for those who are prepared, and they firmly believe this!
"Take this…"
At this mont, Qin Fang opened his eyes and saw the captain of the team toss a submachine gun over. "Although my comrades and I dislike you, we're all teammates now. I don't want you holding us back…"
Soldiers from Dragon Country are like this. Despite being harsh or unpleasant, they always keep the bigger picture in mind, especially in facing such dangerous missions.
"Thanks!"
Though Qin Fang wanted to say he didn't need it, he accepted the gun… He's already an oddity in the team, and refusing might truly make him a "lone wolf." Although he wouldn't mind, it might not be appropriate.
Blam~~~
Just then, a muffled sound ca from outside the troop transport vehicle, causing it to swerve sharply to the side… The soldiers inside were caught off guard, many colliding with each other.
Fortunately, there was no accidental discharge of weapons; otherwise, it would have been a real joke…
"The tire blew out… Everybody get out!"
As they were about to question what happened, the officer at the front, his face grim, spoke.
Everyone obediently climbed out of the vehicle, including Qin Fang… This situation had an eerie vibe; it didn't seem like just an ordinary blowout.
"It was a deliberately set trap…"
Without Qin Fang needing to check, a scout had already investigated and reported back. On the Gobi Desert, a lot of iron caltrops had been secretly scattered, specifically targeting passing vehicles.
These iron caltrops were spread widely, like casting a large net to catch more fish…
"Looks like I can only get you this far…"
Confirming it was sabotage, the officer sighed. "From here, it's at least fifty kiloters to go, it's all up to you now…"
With severe tire damage, not a single tire was spared, all of them hit. Even with spare tires, it would cause significant delays, not to ntion potential traps ahead.
After careful consideration, passing the remaining journey onto the soldiers was deed best…
"Yes, sir!"
Although a bit frustrated, the soldiers accepted the task very firmly, silently shouldering their backpacks, ready to set off… The remaining distance is long, but for these elite special forces soldiers, it's still manageable.
"Wishing you a triumphant return…"
Accompanied by the officer's words, the soldiers swiftly set off towards their destination, while the lightly-packed Qin Fang seed quite relaxed… At least he was lighter than those heavily ard soldiers.
"Move out…"
The squad's captain automatically upgraded to the commander for this mission. With a single order, he imdiately led his n to set off, treading onto the vast expanse of the Gobi Desert, advancing towards the snowy peaks of Mount Kunlun in the distance.
The group of over a dozen n ford a highly orderly line, carrying their equipnt and briskly jogging forward... Ard cross-country runs spanning dozens of kiloters were a daily routine for them, and today was no different.
Qin Fang followed at the back of the formation, pacing himself with the warriors in front, jogging slowly without deliberately speeding up, simply moving to their rhythm while also pondering over the upcoming action plan.
This elite squad was tasked with uncovering the purpose of that mysterious force, and if possible, they didn't mind launching a direct attack... As for Qin Fang himself, his primary concern was rescuing soone, everything else was irrelevant to him.
This made Qin Fang's objectives with the squad seem sowhat unusual; naturally, he wasn't about to follow their plan, and could even leave the squad at any mont...
The Gobi Desert's environnt was quite harsh, with the sun seemingly hotter than in the Inland areas, causing significant physical strain on the warriors as they ran with their gear. Especially after twenty kiloters, many began drinking water to replenish their strength.
But Qin Fang remained as relaxed as ever, not even a single drop of sweat on his forehead, which was rather puzzling to others.
"I couldn't tell, but you're in good physical shape... Have you trained before?"
The captain, surnad Sun, had a face that was quite stern, yet he was actually a decent guy. This could be seen from the fact that although he felt displeased, he still tossed a gun to Qin Fang... At this mont, he approached, looking at Qin Fang's calm face, unable to resist praising him.
He had noticed long before that while Qin Fang had so signs of military training, he was definitely not a soldier... His movents were too casual, not those of soone who had erged from a disciplined military camp.
"Trained for a while..."
Qin Fang replied calmly. He had received training from Tang Cheng over a year ago, albeit totaling only a week, which could count as being in a military camp, but certainly not enough to classify him as a qualified soldier.
Tang Cheng and his uncle once wanted to recruit Qin Fang as a sniper for the Special Forces, but eventually gave up... Qin Fang was developing too quickly, becoming an enormous dragon soaring in the sky almost in the blink of an eye.
The military was, after all, a relatively small stage, unable to contain a dragon like Qin Fang...
"Interested in joining the army? With your skills, you'll definitely make sothing of yourself..."
Captain Sun couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for Qin Fang's talent, wanting to bring him into his team, even forgetting that Qin Fang was sent by the Ninghai Military District as "external aid," for which they had been mocked.
"I..."
Qin Fang couldn't help but smile wryly, about to refuse.
"Wait..."
Just then, Qin Fang suddenly stopped in his tracks and shouted.
"What's wrong? Can't run anymore?"
Captain Sun furrowed his brow, asking sowhat curiously, as he couldn't see any sign of exhaustion on Qin Fang's face...
"Have everyone take cover, there's sothing ahead..."
At this point, Qin Fang didn't have much ti to explain, simply issuing this brief instruction, then he imdiately transford into a shadow, surpassing the dozen or so n in front and charging into the deeper parts of the Gobi Desert.
"Damn, a master..."
Witnessing this scene, Captain Sun was slightly stunned, while soone among the warriors couldn't help but exclaim.
"Everyone, take cover!"
This shout served as a reminder to Captain Sun, imdiately realizing that Qin Fang might not be speaking carelessly, and he quickly issued orders.
Swish swish swish~~~
Upon receiving the command, the warriors imdiately laid low to conceal themselves, swiftly camouflaging their positions...
Da da da~~~
Almost as soon as they hid, they faintly heard gunfire from a distance... Chaotic gunfire, suggesting a fierce battle was underway, and even though they were hundreds of ters away, they could clearly sense it.
The battle, occurring hundreds of ters away beneath the Gobi Desert surface, was audible to them, but the specific situation there was beyond their sight...
"Captain, should I... go over and check the situation?"
At this mont, a warrior took the initiative to co forward and propose.
The gunfire was almost certainly initiated by Qin Fang, and their opponents were undoubtedly the enemy in this mission; they had no reason to let Qin Fang risk it alone while they idled behind, or they'd have nowhere to hide their faces.
