The pursuers ahead sent out a sentry three hundred ters away, about fifty ters from where Luo Zheng was hiding. Watching the sentry skillfully hide in the bushes, it would be incredibly hard to identify them if not witnessed with one's own eyes. Luo Zheng couldn't help but be secretly vigilant; this team was absolutely not simple. The reason they were counterattacked by Kettle Head and five were knocked down was mostly due to negligence.
As ti ticked by, the two teams tacitly ate so food before continuing the pursuit. Luo Zheng had no choice but to lead his team to continue trailing behind, observing calmly. This ti, the two teams ahead ran frantically for about two hours. Luo Zheng sharply realized that the teams in front were circling around, not wanting to run too far.
After two hours, the two teams stopped again to rest. However, the pursuers weren't as friendly as last ti; they split into two, with one group resting and the other initiating an attack. The attacking thod was very special, focusing mainly on harassnt and not caring much about killing enemies, showcasing their advantage of having superior manpower.
Luo Zheng saw this scene and instantly understood with a smile. If this continued, whether or not the pursued were Kettle Head, they would be dragged down by the pursuers. Combat state is the most exhausting in terms of energy and physical strength. After the pursuers split in half, the other half rests, and when one gets tired, it suddenly joins the battle or pursuit, making it overwhelming for the pursued.
"The pursuers are very cunning. Should we help the pursued? If the pursued are indeed Kettle Heads, even though they are our enemies and are here to seize the activation device, if they are annihilated, we would be outnumbered. This team is much more formidable than we imagined," Lan Xue quietly crawled up and calmly watched the battle ahead, speaking in a hushed voice.
"No rush. If the pursued are truly Kettle Heads, Sam Country will be keen and will definitely send more people over. With Sam's mobility, troops can be deployed to any corner of the world within two hours. With such strong mobility, we don't need to worry about the Kettle Heads being annihilated. One group dies, and another follows—it would be best if several groups co, causing both sides to be badly impaired, allowing us to reap the benefits," Luo Zheng refused without hesitation.
"There's logic in that. Let's leave them to it then," Lan Xue laughed lightly; after all, the dead were all enemies, it didn't matter.
The battle in front went into a frenzy. Six mbers of the pursued managed to firmly block the remaining twenty or so pursuers. Neither side suffered fatalities, yet neither could defeat the other. If this fight continued, it would depend on whose ammunition was more plentiful. Luo Zheng noticed that the pursuers had already started to strategically control their shooting intensity, conserving ammunition.
Due to the attackers' nurical superiority and very accurate gun skills, the attacked couldn't conserve ammunition and couldn't keep up firepower. The pursuers quickly pressed forward. Luo Zheng saw both sides fighting systematically, neither able to overco the other, but as ti passed, the pursued would be out of ammunition and supplies, which would be very troubleso then.
The pursued might have also realized this problem, coupled with the inability to shake off the pursuers. They fought very resolutely, in a stance ready for a life-and-death battle with the pursuers. Seeing this scene, Luo Zheng knew there would be a good show to watch. He gestured behind him, indicating to everyone to stay calm and patiently wait.
The attackers were very determined in their tactics, leaving part to attract strong enemies, and the rest divided into two, flanking from both sides, aggressively assaulting the pursued, fighting fiercely and decisively, each full of murderous intentions like wolves and tigers. After ten or so minutes, they closed the distance with the pursued, making the battle even more intense.
The pursued threw grenades for a while, estimating that their ammunition was exhausted, causing their attack power to weaken. The pursuers howled and pressed forward aggressively, along with help from snipers at the rear, making the attack even more sharp. Quickly, the distance between the two sides narrowed to less than twenty ters. The attackers rushed up, getting more excited.
The attacked seed to have run out of ammunition, shrunk in without moving, letting the attackers rain ammo at their heads and not counterattacking. When the attackers rushed to about ten ters away, they suddenly erged from cover, fiercely firing at those who rushed in, decisively leapt out, initiating a counter charge at the attackers.
The attacked charged very decisively, saving few bullets. After knocking down the five to six people rushing in, they quickly drew military daggers, engaging in close combat with the pursuers. The pursuers were not weak either, drawing military knives, attacking in pairs, the scene was extrely intense, making Luo Zheng wide-eyed in shock.
Both the attackers and the attacked were exhausted, ammunition was mostly spent, and the attacked hid, waiting for the attackers to rush in before suddenly acting, finishing off the remaining bullets and seizing the opportunity to tangle with the attackers. If the attacked had enough ammunition, the battle wouldn't turn into a brutal hand-to-hand fight so quickly.
The attackers still had a dozen people left, their close-combat skills were not bad either, both sides were fighting fiercely, presumably with trendous hatred beforehand, using each other's ultimate moves. The sound of tal slicing through flesh, the sight of blood gushing, angry roars made Luo Zheng feel blood boiling, but he knew now wasn't the ti; he had to wait until both sides were on the verge of collapse.
In the matchup of experts, life and death often hinge on an instant. Luo Zheng coldly watched this scene, signalling Mountain Eagle to co over, whispered instructions: "Tell the brothers to scatter soon, encircle them, wait for my command to act. Also, check if there are others like us around, act cautiously, inform imdiately if there's a situation."
"Understood." Mountain Eagle responded, quickly retreated, and soon, around ten team mbers dispersed to both sides, vanishing into the dense forest, the fiercely battling two teams were completely unaware.
The two fighting teams gradually approached the end. Although the pursued were fierce, the attackers weren't bad either, and with two-to-one or even three-to-one, the attacked also suffered casualties. The victors quickly supported others, maximizing manpower advantage. Though the pursued were more formidable in combat prowess than their opponents, a lone tiger couldn't resist a pack of wolves, and Death Gods multiplied. The six quickly were reduced to just two still fighting, one wounded, struggling to hold on.
Soon, the wounded one was cut down, throat directly slit, leaving just one struggling. The attackers with over ten people also were reduced to five struggling, among them three wounded. Calculating it, the combat ability of the attacked in actual fighting surpassed the attackers, but the advantage wasn't significant. With attackers having a nurical advantage, the outco was clear. Luo Zheng admired the pursued's tenacious fighting spirit and exquisite killing capability imnsely; they were a team worthy of respect, steadfastly fighting until death, never retreating, truly warriors.
A few minutes later, the last mber of the attacked took down two people, was injured and fell, an attacker ferociously rushed up, intending to execute a kill. As the attacked collapsed, Luo Zheng charged up, raised his hand and fired a shot, killing the assailant. It wasn't out of kindness, but because Luo Zheng had many questions that needed interrogation.
