326: 326 326: 326 “We also can’t figure out what they want to do on the other side?
But no matter what they stir up, it’s no use to General Fizat,”
Wadi explained to Fizat with respect.
“Don’t take it lightly, send more people to scout, I want to know what they are really up to,”
Fizat was still very uneasy.
“Understood!”
Wadi imdiately withdrew.
……
Several days later, a team mber excitedly said to Chen Shan in the tunnel, “General, we’ve reached the base of the city wall!”
“Good, keep digging down, tunnel through from beneath!”
Chen Shan was increasingly invigorated!
“No problem!”
The team responded with high spirits.
“Wait, Zhao Shan, you take so people and bring the nuclear bomb inside first!”
“Okay, I’m on it,”
Zhao Shan replied excitedly, finally, they had reached the end, no one knew how they had endured these past ten or so days.
After speaking, Zhao Shan hurried off.
On the other side, Xiao Wen continued to surveil the battlefield ahead, when Lin Yue hurried over and whispered in Xiao Wen’s ear, “The tunnel is almost through, Chen Shan has sent Zhao Shan to fetch the nuclear bomb.”
“Good, be careful not to get discovered,”
“I understand,”
Lin Yue nodded solemnly.
Before long, Zhao Shan and the others received the nuclear bomb, which was sealed in a tal box and had decreased significantly in size.
Since it didn’t need to be launched, the launch apparatus on the surface was all disassembled, leaving only the core part and the detonator, thereby greatly reducing its weight.
They placed the nuclear bomb on a cart and Zhao Shan and the others quickly pushed the cart away.
“Let’s go!”
…
Soon Zhao Shan and his team pushed the nuclear bomb into a forest, where nurous cautious players were hiding along the way.
“Everyone, pay attention, do not let any suspicious people mix in,”
Zhao Shan said to soone hiding at a lookout point.
“Understood!”
A hoarse voice ca from within the snow-covered shrubbery.
Shortly after, Zhao Shan arrived at a concealed tunnel entrance camouflaged with snow.
They cautiously pushed the cart into the tunnel.
Just then, at the tunnel entrance far away, a pair of eyes watched the scene.
Then, sothing surprising happened, a blurry figure detached itself from the big tree, blending perfectly with its own color and texture.
The blurry figure darted away rapidly, moving much faster than an ordinary person.
Furthermore, the color of the figure’s body continuously changed to match the surroundings it whisked by.
Even if soone noticed sothing off, without close attention, they would just think their eyes were deceiving them.
Quickly, the blurry figure appeared next to a thicket, reaching in to search, and soon found a wireless communication transmitter hidden there beforehand.
The figure quickly took it out, started composing a ssage to report the situation.
The player in front of him was the spy leader Johnny, dispatched by Fizat.
Like Ma Qi, he had consud a Genetic Potion in the camouflage series enabling almost the sa capabilities.
Just then, a faint sound ca from a distance, imdiately triggering Johnny’s nerves.
“Damn it!”
Without a word, Johnny turned and fled, editing the ssage while running — Tunnel, nuclear bomb!
Coordinates…
At that mont, sounds of rapid pursuit ca from behind.
Johnny ran for his life, not looking back.
“Damn, just a bit more!”
Bang!
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out!
Johnny crashed heavily to the ground, the intense pain nearly suffocating him.
His vision started blurring, and it was obvious the shot had hit his vitals.
With all his might, he pressed the send button, and then completely collapsed on the ground, his blood dyeing the snow-covered ground red.
At this mont, a figure rushed over to Johnny’s side, picking up the communication device – it was Ma Qi.
He saw the ssage had been successfully sent on the communicator, then angrily punched a nearby tree, causing a shower of snow to fall.
“Damn it!”
In Fortress City on the mountain, Wadi hurried over and reported to General Fizat.
“Latest intel, sent by Scout Captain Johnny.
Those guys are digging a tunnel to get a nuclear bomb inside.”
“What?
Where is the location?”
Upon hearing Wadi’s report, General Fizat’s wine trembled in his hand and completely spilled out.
But right now, he couldn’t care less about that; his behind was about to be on fire.
“No specific directions – Johnny has lost contact, probably taken out.
However, I’ve already sent people offline to inquire about it.
But there’s simply no ti.
General, what should we do now?”
“Can we determine the direction from which the communication was sent?”
“Yes!”
“Good, dispatch all the fighters and bombers, and adjust all the firepower.
Indiscriminately bombard the general direction of the signal’s origin, collapse the tunnel for .
Also, imdiately send people to search through all the corners of the city, and find those damned rats!”
“Understood!”
Wadi imdiately carried out the order.
What followed was an astonishing scene.
Swarms of fighters and bombers took off from Fortress City on the mountain, starting a frenzied carpet bombing of the empty suburbs ahead.
At the sa ti, rockets and artillery shells were launched from Fortress City, indiscriminately laying waste to the land.
Boom boom boom!
Any sane person seeing the enemy do this would certainly think they had gone mad.
This was simply a waste of ammunition.
However, it soon proved that they were right.
On the pockmarked ground, a trail like a long serpent beca visible.
Without any surprises, the tunnel had been collapsed.
After witnessing this scene, Xiao Wen angrily threw the binoculars he was holding to the ground, took a deep breath, and ultimately recognized that it was all for naught.
A sense of powerlessness welled up inside him.
Standing to one side, Lin Yue said in shock, “Lord Chen Shan…”
At that mont, Ma Qi hurried back, about to report to Xiao Wen, but seeing the distant sky filled with bombardnt, he stopped, knowing there was no need to report.
On the battlefield, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue, watching the distant sky filled with bombardnt, also felt a deep sense of helplessness.
They had prepared for so long, and yet near success, they were still detected.
But it was normal; the enemy wasn’t stupid, and it was bound to notice sothing amiss eventually.
It was no surprise they had been scouted.
Xiao Wen’s hoarse voice ca through the communication channel.
“Plan failed, everyone withdraw.”
Following this, Su Mo and the others began controlling their chas to retreat.
Before long, Su Mo and the others retreated to the rear camp, he and Qian Chengxue brought their chas next to Xiao Wen.
“What happened?”
Although Qian Chengxue could guess, she still asked.
“The tunnel was detected by the enemy’s scouts.
Ma Qi killed the opposing scout imdiately, but the ssage was still transmitted.
The enemy resorted to carpet bombing, and I have just sent people to confirm – the tunnel is collapsed, and the plan has most likely failed.”
A look of regret appeared on Xiao Wen’s face.
“What about Chen Shan?”
Su Mo asked.
“He has lost contact; the tunnel might have fully collapsed, burying him inside.
The offline ssage we got is that he is not dead yet, probably protected by his chanical Armor.
But that’s useless, we don’t even know his location, let alone rescue him.
I estimate he will not survive for long.”
Xiao Wen looked increasingly weary.
